Journey to the West: Heavenly Creation

Chapter 198 The Devoured World
"A flick of the fingers is twenty moments, there are twenty thoughts in a moment, ninety moments in a thought, and nine hundred births and extinctions in a moment..."

The moment Sanzang stepped into the mouth of the giant beast, time seemed to return to the previous moment.

Empress Houtu used the magical power of "One Thought Reincarnation" and sent him to the time unit of "One Thought", allowing him to end the karma with Jin Chanzi in his previous life.

This thought is not only a unit of time, but also a true expression of the handover of Sanzang and Jin Chanzi's spiritual thoughts.

"Who are you? Why did you become me and my reincarnation?"

Jin Chanzi's astonishment was beyond words to describe.

"After going through the cycle of life after life, it is inevitable that some unimaginable things will happen,"

Before Sanzang came in and thought about reincarnation, he had already thought of a way to deal with it:
That is mainly to appease.

In any case, this matter cannot be exposed under the eyes of Empress Houtu.

"The reason, I will tell you in detail next time. Now, I am performing the most important task of the Buddhist scriptures team, and the poor monk will leave first!"

He turned around and wanted to leave.

But Jin Chanzi didn't allow it, he stretched out his hand to block the way,
"You killed me?"

"Is your life more important, or your mission? No matter who it is, the most important thing is to be able to complete the master plan."

Sanzang was a little helpless, determined to kill the golden cicada, but also worried that it would cause unexpected troubles,

"Let's see the life and death of a monk, don't be obsessed with it!"

This is what it says...

If it fell into the ears of outsiders, they would definitely think that Sanzang was crazy.

If you kill someone and let them look away, don't be obsessed with it.

But the fact is that these words are indeed effective for Jin Chanzi.

With a sigh, he said sadly,

"Life and death are fate, and you can't force it, but the mission you want to complete is really the same as the mission I want to complete?"

"Yes, it is to obtain the Western Scriptures. Jin Chanzi is unparalleled in Zen, and only you can obtain the scriptures."

"The scriptures...the scriptures...then do you have any clues about the Seven Treasures Golden Cicada?"

Jin Chanzi pondered for a moment, then asked an unexpected question.

Sanzang also froze for a moment.

What does this mean?

Is it because Jin Chanzi doesn't know the whereabouts of Qibao Jinchan, or is he trying to test me on purpose?
But in this life, Sanzang no longer cared about Qibao Jinchan.

Because of Taizong's scriptures, many things deviated from the original track. Regarding the carrier of the scriptures, he asked Taizong, and Taizong said that he had his own arrangements.

"The Seven Treasures Golden Cicada...is in your hands?"

After pondering over and over again, Sanzang gave a relatively safe rhetorical question.

Jin Chanzi's face changed slightly, and he let go of his hand slumpedly, and a golden leaf slipped from between his fingers.

Sanzang reached out to grab it, but it was in vain.

The leaves disappeared between his fingers.

……

This is the whole process of what happened between reincarnations in one thought.

After that, Sanzang already understood that there must have been a mistake in his conversation with Jin Chanzi.

It's just that he didn't know where the problem was at the moment, but it was related to the Seven Treasures Golden Cicada and the leaf that the golden cicada shook off.

But now, it's too late to say anything.

Lei, whose identity has been exposed, is going to be handed over to Layman Jingxuan, and the cause and effect with Jin Chanzi in his previous life must be resolved by himself.

The moment he stepped into the vortex of time and space, he saw Jin Chanzi again.

It's just that beside Jin Chanzi, crouched a huge monster made of reinforced concrete and animal and plant bodies.

Layman Jingxuan saw the miniature version of the monster that day.

It's just that Sanzang had never seen it before, so in surprise, he blurted out three words:
"Swallowing beast?"

"Swallowing Beast? I like this name very much!"

The monster that once devoured the world had a name, and I was overjoyed for a while.

Gently shaking the body, causing waves of gentle ripples.

Sanzang ignored the existence of this monster, stood in the void, turned his head to Jin Chanzi, and asked calmly,
"why?"

"In a certain wrong timeline, everything was swallowed up, and I was one of them, but I was awakened and realized that this was all an established arrangement."

conspiracy theory.

Sanzang knew it in his heart.

Analyzing conspiracy theories is one of the best skills of the little star master in the previous life. Although Sanzang is not as good as the little star master, he is not too inferior. He immediately expressed his conjecture,
"The established arrangement, this swallowing beast, and this wrong timeline, are all arranged for the reunion between you and me?"

"And how do you know that its name is the Swallowing Beast?"

Jin Chanzi didn't answer, but asked another question instead.

Sanzang did not answer.

In this life, he is not the little star master in perfect condition, and many memories are also sealed.

"So, things are very simple. After you kill me, you can continue to pretend to be Jin Chanzi, and I only need to unlock your hidden memory to know the truth behind it. The winner has everything, and the loser loses everything. The logic of the swallowing beast is applicable to all worlds!"

What are you waiting for?
Sanzang didn't hesitate any longer, and shot directly.

A bright sword light flowed from between his drooping fingers, and suddenly entered the void.

Immediately afterwards, it appeared behind Jin Chanzi's head, chopping up the streamer that filled the sky.

"Tsk tsk, what did I say, the little star master's methods are not something you can resist!"

The Sky Swallowing Beast laughed loudly, sucked in its mouth, swallowed up the streamer transformed by the golden cicada, and spit out again, forming an image of a golden cicada in the space.

"What do you say to be awakened by someone, he is just a puppet driven by you."

Sanzang looked at the swallowing beast, "As for you... whose puppet is it?"

"I am in reincarnation, who do you think that person will be?"

The Sky Swallowing Beast opened its mouth wide, spewing out nebula after cloud, rendering it and the space where Sanzang is located, rendering it similar to the misty outer space.

"No, the perception in the swallowing beast's body has been interrupted, and now even I don't know what happened inside."

Empress Hou Tu originally wanted to ask Layman Jingxuan to find out the relationship between Sanzang and Xiao Xingzhu.

But suddenly his expression changed, he counted with his fingers, and said a piece of shocking news.

"How is this possible? Isn't everything in reincarnation under your control?"

Layman Jingxuan obviously didn't believe it, and her first reaction was that the proprietress was fooling herself.

"The abandoned timeline is not under my control. As I said before, as long as you enter the time-space maze, there may not be a way for me to save you."

Empress Houtu put down her palms and stopped counting,

"If you tell the truth, there may be a way, otherwise... it depends on their own good fortune!"

Um.
Layman Jingxuan fell into deep thought.

I wanted to blame my mother for her ineffectiveness, but it was really not the right time.

The most urgent task is to win the full assistance of the empress.

"To obtain Taizong's scriptures, this person must join hands with me, and he is indeed Jin Chanzi,"

Layman Jingxuan looked at Empress Houtu frankly, "The question is, empress, do you really know who Jin Chanzi is?"

This logic also makes sense.

Even if the little star master replaced Jin Chanzi, who stipulated that Jin Chanzi couldn't be the little star master?
"call!"

Empress Houtu exhaled lightly, reluctantly accepted Layman Jingxuan's explanation, her face became a little heavy,
"There is a powerful shot, blocking my perception."

Layman Jingxuan:?
Between reincarnations, is there any greater power than you?

"Innumerable years ago,"

Empress Houtu added, "He created a timeline in which the human world was devoured. This timeline was cut off by the Dao of Heaven and buried in reincarnation. Only now do I know that his goal is... Sanzang."

"Or there is you, but you can catch the real machine of God's will, so you escaped!"
