Chapter 505: Creating Obstacles on the Journey to the West!
"Wow, can you play like this?"
"I don’t see why not?"
"We can also pretend to be monsters on the road, each person captures Tang San for 3000 miles, they come to rescue us, we capture him bit by bit and bring him to the Western Heaven, just in time for 81 challenges."
"Are you trying to exploit this loophole?"
"Are you trying to test Monk Tang’s qualifications?"
"I think Old Fang’s plan is feasible!"
"So, everyone disguise themselves?"
"Wait, what if we get killed by monkeys?"
"Yeah, let’s forget about Jiang Chen. If a few of us go up there, won’t the monkeys hit us with sticks one by one?"
"After all, monkeys also belong to the Great Holy Domain…"
"So you’re saying, when they return from their pilgrimage, the monkeys will be considered gods, then how can we act?"
"That’s why I said this is troublesome…"
Hearing this, Chu Du sneered, "That’s why I say you guys are silly, can’t understand such simple things?"
"Look."
With that, Chu Du swiftly transformed into a thin and old man.
"Don’t forget, I have the ability to transform into someone else. When they come back from their journey, I will pretend to be a Buddhist believer, get close to Monk Tang, and then seize the key."
"What about the monkey, can’t he see that you are not who you appear to be?"
"Just keep the monkey occupied, that should do the trick."
"Risking your life to keep him occupied?"
"I can’t believe that at this point, you all have no sense of secrecy."
"Stop hiding things, there are only a few of us left, who are you guarding against?"
"If we’re being honest, I have a way to save my life, and maybe even trap the monkey for a moment."
"In that case, I also have something that might come in handy."
Chu Du looked at the people and smirked, realizing that they all had a card up their sleeve, just trying to guard against him.
The cards they are showing now may not be all the cards they have.
Who can still be alive without any tricks up their sleeves?
Without strong abilities and secret means, why would they stand out among billions of people here?
"One last question, how do we pretend to be monsters?"
"No… do we still need to pretend?"
Zhou Li looked at them puzzled, then pointed at each person one by one.
"Jiang Chen, Bone Demon."
"Old Man Hai, King of Inspiration."
"Old Fang, you’re from the Feathered Human race, with two wings. Is it a problem to call you the Roc?"
"Old Du, even though you are a dragon with wings, can we say you are a dragon being, right?"
"And then, Old Zhang, you are an elf, um… let’s just call you a tree spirit, okay?"
"As for you, Li Xiaochen, with your mischievous appearance as a little goblin, no one would doubt that you are a rat spirit, right? You can call yourself King Yellow Wind somewhere, without anyone suspecting you."
"What about you?"
"Are you a bat spirit?"
"No, I am dressed up as Zhang Guolao."
"Why?"
"Guess."
。。。
When it comes to cultivating immortality, there are actually a few people here.
First is Ye Qiu, who cultivated by borrowing the power of the White Lotus and mastering the Creationism School’s techniques.
Later, people who integrated other systems of immortal cultivation have reached the stage of transcending tribulations.
The next step is entering the mythical realm.
Then there’s Brother Achieving Immortal, a person who cultivates immortality purely for alchemy.
Ye Qiu waved his hand and transformed his appearance into that of an old man with white hair and a long beard.
He wore a white Daoist robe, giving off an air of immortality.
He sat cross-legged on a stubborn rock along the road in Guanzhou Forest.
One day, a monk in robes led a horse through the forest.
When Ye Qiu saw the monk on the road, the monk politely asked, "Namaste, sir, why are you alone in these dangerous mountains filled with wild animals like tigers, leopards, and wolves?"
Ye Qiu opened his eyes and replied, "May I ask you, as a frail monk with no strength, why are you here in these mountains full of wild animals?"
The monk clasped his hands together and said, "Namaste, I am on a mission from the Tang Emperor to journey to the Western Heaven to seek sacred scriptures and spread teachings to the people."
Ye Qiu chuckled lightly, "You are straightforward in your words."
"So, you are Monk Tang?"
Monk Tang nodded, "Yes, that’s correct."
"I must admit with shame, I passed through Gongzhou and encountered demons in the mountains. There was a tiger demon named Bronze Head Red Eyes who proclaimed himself as a general, along with two other demons named Bear Mountain Lord and a special hermit."
"The escorts sent by the Tang Emperor to protect me were… devoured by those three demons, and I alone was saved by a celestial being. I am filled with shame…"
Ye Qiu made a rough guess upon hearing this.
When they were observing earlier, they noticed that Monk Tang seemed to have a special attraction to big cats.
Whenever they entered the forest, they always encountered a few tigers.
Ye Qiu sensed that three fierce tigers were waiting ahead in the forest, and if Monk Tang continued on, he would encounter them.
Perhaps this is also a part of the trials they must face?
"On your journey westward, you must pass through Two-realm Mountain, not far from here, but the forest is filled with many big cats. I fear that if you go this way, you will be devoured."
"Will you still go?"
Monk Tang was shocked and worried, "Please, could you show me a clear path…"
Ye Qiu calmly smiled, "In my opinion, it would be better for you to turn back now, change your path, go around Two-realm Mountain, take the long route for safety."
Monk Tang gratefully bowed with folded hands, "Thank you very much for guiding me, may the Buddha bless you."
Monk Tang turned around.
Zhou Li slowly walked out in the dark when he saw this, "See, he still has to thank us."
"So, is everything arranged over there?"
"Of course, as soon as Monk Tang turns around, Old Du will make his move directly, and we should leave too."
"Hmm."
After saying that, the two of them disappeared directly in the woods.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they left, Tang San, holding a white horse, hurriedly returned the same way.
Behind him was a three-meter long python.
Tang San was frightened to death, he turned around and ran with the white horse.
As he took a few steps forward, just like Ye Qiu said, he ran into two big cats with hanging white marks on their foreheads!
With a fierce tiger in front and a giant snake behind, Monk Tang was so scared that he froze in place and had to shout for help.
Luckily, a hunter happened to pass by and saved Monk Tang.
Fang Ze saw this happen and couldn’t help but slap his face, "Has the plan failed before it even started..?"
"Oh well, let’s change the plan at the last minute."
。。。
After being rescued by the hunter, Monk Tang stayed at the hunter’s house for a few days, and then set off for Two-realm Mountain with the hunter as his escort.
Also known as Five Elements Mountain.
The hunter told Monk Tang that there was a monkey king from the time of Wang Mang’s usurpation under Five Elements Mountain, and he had been watching that monkey king since he was young, and recommended Monk Tang to go there.
Monk Tang was too scared to go over, but he couldn’t resist the hunter’s enthusiasm.
Watching from the shadows, the people frowned, "Should we go and cause some trouble?"
"Maybe we shouldn’t."
"I suspect someone is secretly manipulating things. If we can change it, our previous plan probably won’t fail."
"So it can’t be just an accident?"
"Although that possibility can’t be ruled out, I prefer to believe that someone has been plotting everything in secret."
"If that’s the case, then we’ll have to be very careful and attentive to details."
"For example?"
"Let’s make Monk Tang experience that good fortune may come with trouble."
