Chapter 130

Seeing Sun Wukong and the Black Bear Spirit so curious, Xuanzang shook his head with a smile.

"There are indeed some other things, but they cannot be said now. After we reach Spirit Mountain, you will know."

Hearing Xuanzang say this, Sun Wukong immediately started scratching his ears and cheeks, and so did the Black Bear Spirit, but since Xuanzang wouldn't say, there was nothing they could do.

"Let's go, let's continue on the road." Xuanzang said.

"What do you think that Zen Master Wuchao talked to Master about?" The Black Bear Spirit leaned over to Sun Wukong and the others and asked in a low voice.

"How would I know that?" Sun Wukong rolled his eyes.

"This is hard to guess; there's no clue at all!" Ao Mo'ang spread his hands.

"What's there to guess? Won't we know after we reach Spirit Mountain?" The Great Peng looked at everyone and said speechlessly.

"You're not curious?" Sun Wukong asked.

"Not curious!" The Great Peng shook his head.

"Alright then!" Hearing the Great Peng's words, everyone looked helpless.

On Zen Master Wuchao's side, after Xuanzang and the others left, he contacted the Great Golden Crow far away in the Heavenly Court for the first time.

It turned out that this Zen Master Wuchao was the Little Golden Crow. He had originally been an undercover agent on Spirit Mountain, but because of some reasons, he didn't stay on Spirit Mountain and instead stayed here. When he first entered Spirit Mountain, the Little Golden Crow was named Great Sun Tathagata, and only after arriving at this Mount Futu did he change his name to Zen Master Wuchao.

"Boss, I have already discussed it with Xuanzang. When he reaches Spirit Mountain, I will help him. It will be up to you guys then." The Little Golden Crow said with a smile.

"Rest assured, I guarantee it will be foolproof." The Great Golden Crow replied.

"Good, since that's the case, then I'm relieved." The Little Golden Crow replied, then cut off the connection with the Great Golden Crow.

"Now that my Demon Race has returned to the Heavenly Court, once I steal the fortune of Spirit Mountain, my Demon Race will be able to restore the glory of the past." Zen Master Wuchao said with a smile.

"After the Demon Race restores its glory, we can talk about cooperation with the human race. By then, with the support of my Demon Race, the number of human cultivators should grow explosively." After thinking for a while, Zen Master Wuchao said again.

After saying this, he didn't say anything else, and then he just waved his hand, and the light shield that shielded the heavenly secrets disappeared, and the entire Mount Futu returned to its former tranquility.

After coming out of Mount Futu, Sun Wukong and the Black Bear Spirit tried every way to get the content of his conversation with Zen Master Wuchao out of Xuanzang's mouth, but Xuanzang just wouldn't tell them, which made them very uncomfortable.

"Is your curiosity always this heavy?" The Great Peng looked at Sun Wukong and the Black Bear Spirit and asked.

"Heavy? I think it's alright." Sun Wukong was stunned for a moment, then said.

The Great Peng didn't speak, but his eyes rolled. This curiosity wasn't heavy? They had been asking all the way since coming out of Mount Futu.

"It's not that I won't say; the conversation between me and Zen Master Wuchao involves a lot. If I say it, it will inevitably be detected. If you want to know, everything will be known after we reach Spirit Mountain." Seeing Sun Wukong scratching his ears and cheeks, Xuanzang found it very cute, so he said.

"Alright! Then we won't ask." Hearing Xuanzang say this, Sun Wukong and the Black Bear Spirit nodded.

They were just curious, but they weren't the kind of people who would make unreasonable trouble. Since this matter involved a lot, they'd better not know. Otherwise, if something happened, they would very likely not be able to stay out of it.

"It seems this Xuanzang is not simple!" Hearing Xuanzang say this, the Great Peng narrowed his eyes, and such a thought appeared in his heart.

"This scripture-seeking trip will definitely not be simple. There will be fun to be had along this road." The Great Peng said in his heart again.

After coming out of Mount Futu, Xuanzang suddenly wasn't so anxious. Before this, Xuanzang had been very eager to reach the West, so he basically hadn't rested much along the way. Although he didn't use magic power to travel, they had traveled overnight before Mount Futu.

But after talking with Zen Master Wuchao once, Xuanzang thought there was no need for him to be so anxious. The scenery along the way was quite good.

Afterward, Xuanzang gave the Black Bear Spirit a glance without leaving a trace, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Not only was there scenery along the way, but there were also disciples like the Black Bear Spirit. If he walked too fast, he would miss many beautiful things!

Ever since Xuanzang's mentality changed, Sun Wukong and the others felt much more relaxed. Although traveling overnight was nothing to them, they should still rest if they could.

"Great King, the scripture-seeker has already left Mount Futu and is walking toward our Yellow Wind Ridge." Yellow Wind Ridge, in the Yellow Wind Cave, the Yellow Wind Monster was listening to the report of a small demon.

"Have they arrived?" A look of excitement appeared on the corner of the Yellow Wind Monster's mouth.

As long as he could cause some trouble for Xuanzang and fulfill this tribulation, then Bodhisattva Lingji could guide him into Spirit Mountain.

This Yellow Wind Monster had the same thinking as Elder Jinchi back then. Elder Jinchi wanted to enter the Western Paradise after death, while this Yellow Wind Monster wanted to be guided directly into Spirit Mountain.

"Pay attention to their movements; this King wants to know their whereabouts at any time." The Yellow Wind Monster looked at the small demon and said.

"Yes! Great King!" The small demon nodded.

"Come quickly; whether this King can enter Spirit Mountain depends on you." The Yellow Wind Monster rubbed his hands and muttered to himself.

Little Sumeru Mountain, Bodhisattva Lingji was also paying attention to Yellow Wind Ridge. Guanyin had told Bodhisattva Lingji about the Guanyin Zen Temple, so Bodhisattva Lingji was very careful.

Once he discovered that Xuanzang had anything unusual, he would forcibly intervene and then take this merit into his own hands. As long as he made his move in time, this merit would be his.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Bodhisattva Lingji's face.

On Xuanzang's side, traveling and playing along the way, they finally entered the territory of Yellow Wind Ridge.

"Demonic Qi!" After entering Yellow Wind Ridge, the Great Peng's brow furrowed.

Having demonic Qi meant that a demon was entrenched in this mountain. Without needing to think, this demon was here for Xuanzang.

"Not just that!" Xuanzang shook his head.

"Not just that? What's not just that?" The Great Peng asked.

"Besides demonic Qi, there is also a faint wisp of Buddhist power." Xuanzang said with a smile.

"Buddhist power? Why didn't I sense it?" The Great Peng looked at Xuanzang, then asked.

He was a Da Luo Golden Immortal, and Xuanzang was only a Golden Immortal. Could his perception be sharper than his own?

"I'm just more sensitive to Buddhist power." Seeing the Great Peng's inquiring gaze, Xuanzang said with a smile.

"Let's go, let's go and see what kind of demon is in this Yellow Wind Ridge!" Ao Mo'ang said at this moment.

"Great King, the scripture-seeker has already entered Yellow Wind Ridge and will soon reach our Yellow Wind Cave." A small demon said to the Yellow Wind Monster.

"Bring this King's weapon and armor!" The Yellow Wind Monster shouted loudly.

Just as the Yellow Wind Monster finished putting on his armor, Xuanzang and the others had already reached the mountainside of Yellow Wind Ridge. They could already see the looming Yellow Wind Cave on the mountaintop.

"That Buddhist power is emanating from the cave dwelling on the mountaintop. It seems the demon in this mountain has a connection with the West!" Xuanzang said with a smile.

"Isn't that just right?" Sun Wukong said with a smile.

"That's right, just right!" Hearing Sun Wukong's words, Xuanzang nodded with a smile.

Ao Mo'ang and the others heard the conversation between Sun Wukong and Xuanzang and all cast suspicious glances. They didn't know what the conversation between Sun Wukong and Xuanzang meant, but the amount of information in it was quite large!

"After this matter is over, I will let you know about my grievances with the West." Seeing the suspicious glances of everyone, Xuanzang said with a smile.

Just as Xuanzang's voice fell, a demonic wind arose on the flat ground, wanting to roll Xuanzang away, but the Great Peng pressed Xuanzang in place.

"Hmph! Petty tricks." The Great Peng let out a cold snort.

Seeing that it couldn't roll Xuanzang and the Great Peng, the demonic wind rolled toward Sun Wukong and the others. Sun Wukong and Ao Mo'ang stood still, but the Black Bear Spirit was not so lucky.

"Master!" The Black Bear Spirit let out a strange cry, then was rolled away by the demonic wind.

After the Black Bear Spirit was rolled away, the demonic wind stopped. After the demonic wind stopped, Xuanzang's expression was a bit ugly.

In this group, they were actually all in a cooperative relationship; only the Black Bear Spirit was his own disciple. Now that his disciple had been captured by a demon, how could Xuanzang have a good expression?

"Dharma Master Xuanzang, don't worry. The demon's cave dwelling is on the mountaintop. Let's go and save Xiong Pi right now." Seeing Xuanzang's dark expression, Ao Mo'ang said.

After Ao Mo'ang finished speaking, Xuanzang flew directly toward the mountaintop, and everyone followed closely behind.

When they arrived at the Yellow Wind Cave, before the small demon guarding the door could speak, Xuanzang raised his hand and killed the small demon with a palm. The Great Peng and others who followed up looked at each other after seeing this.

"I'm not familiar with the teachings of Spirit Mountain, but I know a sentence: 'Sweeping the floor, fear of harming the lives of ants; cherishing the moths, covering the lamps with gauze.' Is this Dharma Master Xuanzang a bit..." After seeing Xuanzang make a move, Ao Mo'ang transmitted his voice to Sun Wukong and the Great Peng.

"This is just the beginning. After you understand Xuanzang's past, you will find that everything Dharma Master Xuanzang does is reasonable." Sun Wukong shook his head.

In his view, such a performance by Xuanzang was too normal. If he had experienced everything Xuanzang had, he wouldn't be able to be as calm as Xuanzang at all.

*Bang*—

While Sun Wukong and the others were transmitting their voices, the gate of the Yellow Wind Cave was broken by Xuanzang.

Just as Xuanzang was about to rush into the Yellow Wind Cave, a three-pronged steel fork appeared before Xuanzang, blocking him.

"Who dares to come to my cave dwelling to run wild?" Following that, the Yellow Wind Monster's voice came from the cave. The next second, the monster walked out, truly brave and fierce. Look at how he was dressed: Golden helmet shaking the sun, golden armor condensing light. The tassels on the helmet fluttering like pheasant tails, a silk robe covering the armor in light goose yellow, the armor cord coiled like a dragon shining with color, the heart-protecting mirror glowing brilliantly, deer-skin boots dyed with locust flower color; a brocade apron decorated with willow leaf velvet. Holding a three-pronged steel fork in his hand, he was truly majestic.

"Release my disciple!" After being forced back, Xuanzang said coldly.

"You mean that black charcoal head? Prey that has entered my Yellow Wind Cave has no reason to be released." The Yellow Wind Monster said with a smile, his words full of disdain.

"Since that's the case, then there's nothing to talk about!" Sun Wukong pulled out his Golden-Hooped Rod at this time.

Ao Mo'ang also took out his bright silver spear. Although the Great Peng didn't take out his weapon, the aura on his body also rose.

Seeing this, the Yellow Wind Monster was still a bit empty inside. His strength was originally only at the Taiyi Profound Immortal realm. With the help of Guanyin and Bodhisattva Lingji, he barely improved to Taiyi Golden Immortal. Although he mastered a supernatural power called the Samadhi Divine Wind, if he used this Samadhi Divine Wind on everyone, Xuanzang would be afraid he couldn't withstand it!

If Xuanzang was hurt, Guanyin and Bodhisattva Lingji would take his little life.

"Kill!" The Great Peng let out a cold snort and rushed toward the Yellow Wind Monster first. He neither used his own weapon nor his Yin-Yang Two Qi supernatural power.

This Yellow Wind Monster was simply not qualified for him to use his weapon and supernatural power. Relying on his own Da Luo realm strength was already enough.

"Great Peng, don't make a move yet. He's not worth you making a move. You help us guard the flanks first. If this Yellow Wind Monster has any trump cards, then you make a move." Sun Wukong said at this time.

"Good!" After thinking for a while, the Great Peng nodded.

This Yellow Wind Monster was a Taiyi Golden Immortal; it would indeed be a bit beneath him to make a move, so let Sun Wukong and Ao Mo'ang handle it.

"Master Xuanzang, leave this demon to us. Don't worry, he will still be handed over to you to deal with in the end." Ao Mo'ang also said to Xuanzang.

"Good!" Xuanzang nodded.

Now that the demonic Qi on his body shouldn't be exposed, it was better to leave this Yellow Wind Monster to Sun Wukong and the others.

Seeing that only Sun Wukong and Ao Mo'ang rushed over in the end, a look of disdain appeared on the Yellow Wind Monster's face. If it were only these two people, he wouldn't fear them at all.

*Bang, bang, bang*—

The sound of weapons colliding came constantly, but it was clear that the Yellow Wind Monster was at a disadvantage. He was originally a yellow-haired mink at the foot of Spirit Mountain and didn't have much combat experience. Besides, his strength was forcibly improved. It was a normal phenomenon for him to fall into a disadvantage under the siege of Sun Wukong and the other.

After a few more rounds, wounds began to appear on the Yellow Wind Monster's body. His speed could no longer keep up with Sun Wukong and the other.

The Yellow Wind Monster swung away the attacks of the two, hurriedly pulled away from them, and moved his mouth. A burst of yellow wind blew out from his mouth. This was exactly the Samadhi Divine Wind.

If it were Sun Wukong who had been calcined in the Eight-Trigrams Furnace, he would definitely have been blinded by this Samadhi Divine Wind, but the current Sun Wukong had the Golden Eyes of Truth; there was no such thing as squinting eyes.

However, with the obstruction of the Samadhi Divine Wind, Sun Wukong and the others' vision was blocked, and this Samadhi Divine Wind could also block divine consciousness. Sun Wukong and Ao Mo'ang were instantly no different from blind people.

"Samadhi Divine Wind, a move of Little Sumeru Mountain. So this Yellow Wind Monster is a subordinate of Lingji!" After seeing the Yellow Wind Monster's Samadhi Divine Wind, Xuanzang recognized it immediately.

"Great Peng, help Wukong and the others. This Samadhi Divine Wind has the effect of blocking divine consciousness. They can't see with their eyes, can't hear with their ears, and their divine consciousness is blocked. It's very easy to be ambushed by the Yellow Wind Monster." Xuanzang said to the Great Peng.

"Good!" The Great Peng nodded.

Just as the Great Peng's voice fell, the sound of weapons colliding came from the Samadhi Divine Wind, followed by Ao Mo'ang's muffled groan. Clearly, he had been ambushed by the Yellow Wind Monster.

Seeing this, the Great Peng sent a palm wind flying from his hand. The Samadhi Divine Wind couldn't block the Great Peng's attack at all and was dispersed by the Great Peng the moment it made contact, revealing Sun Wukong and Ao Mo'ang inside.

At this time, there was a wound on Ao Mo'ang's back, and the wound was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. Sun Wukong was standing beside Ao Mo'ang with a vigilant expression. To their right rear was the Yellow Wind Monster.

"Take this rod from Old Sun!" Sun Wukong roared and rushed directly toward the Yellow Wind Monster.

*Bang*—

The Yellow Wind Monster couldn't block it at all. Sun Wukong's strike directly caused him heavy injuries, but Sun Wukong didn't kill him and instead brought him before Xuanzang.

Little Sumeru Mountain, Bodhisattva Lingji saw this scene, his expression changed drastically, and the next second he disappeared from the prayer mat.
