Starting from Comprehensive Martial Arts: Bu Dao Lu

Chapter 773: Eagle Sorrow Gorge

Although Xiao Bailong was worried and had many thoughts in his mind, as a weak person, he knew that he had no right to choose. The other four people who were destined to face the calamity were not people he could afford to offend. And how he would perform in this calamity would depend on Xuanzang and the monkey clone. These two were the real protagonists of this calamity.

Little White Dragon waited for Xuan Zang and the Monkey King clone to come to Yingchoujian! And Xuan Zang and the Monkey King clone had long known about Little White Dragon's existence.

Xuanzang is not an ordinary monk, and his monkey clone is the Dharmakāya of Emperor Gou Chen. The calamity of the Journey to the West arranged by Buddhism cannot be hidden from them!
In front of Yingchoujian!

As soon as Xuanzang and the monkey clone stopped, the little white dragon jumped out of the water and bowed in front of them!

Although Buddhism had instructed Little White Dragon to embarrass Xuan Zang, but one's own family knows one's own business! Little White Dragon knew that with his own cultivation, he had no right to embarrass Xuan Zang and the monkey clone.

Moreover, the dragon clan is affiliated with Jiejiao and is not under the jurisdiction of Buddhism! Little White Dragon doesn't care about Buddhism's greeting. A few days ago, the scene of the monkey clone beating up the Eighteen Arhats in Liangjie Mountain was seen clearly by Little White Dragon, who always pays attention to Liangjie Mountain. With the monkey clone's irritability, Little White Dragon is sure that if he obeys the order of Buddhism to embarrass Xuanzang and the monkey clone, he will definitely be beaten up by the monkey clone. Of course, given Little White Dragon's identity as a person who is in danger of the catastrophe, the monkey clone will surely not kill him! But Little White Dragon doesn't want to take the initiative to be abused and beaten up by the monkey clone. In addition, if Little White Dragon wants to gain enough benefits in the catastrophe of heaven and earth, he also needs to befriend Xuanzang and the monkey clone. Little White Dragon naturally understands which is more important!
"Ao Lie, the Third Prince of the Dragon King of the West Sea, pays respects to the Monkey King and the Master!"

The monkey clone chuckled and said, "You are quite clever, little dragon. How did you know that I am the Great Sage Equaling Heaven?"

Seeing the monkey clone speak gently, Xiao Bailong was delighted and said hurriedly, "Great Sage, this Eagle Sorrow Stream is not far from Liangjie Mountain. Xiaolong knows that Liangjie Mountain is the Great Sage's place of practice, so he pays attention to Liangjie Mountain every day. That day, Xiaolong saw the Great Sage coming from the east on a cloud, so he presumptuously guessed the Great Sage's identity. Please forgive me for my abruptness!"

The monkey clone laughed and said, "You are quite clever!"

Seeing that the monkey clone had no intention of making things difficult for him, and that Xuanzang was more important than the monkey clone, Little White Dragon hurriedly said to Xuanzang, "Master, you have a great ambition to spread the Dharma throughout the world. Little White Dragon is willing to follow you on your journey to the West to spread the Dharma!"

Taking the initiative to surrender, it is hard for people to have a bad impression of such a tactful little white dragon! Xuanzang also smiled and said: "The journey to the west is difficult and dangerous. Are you really willing to follow me?"

Little White Dragon was naturally no stranger to the catastrophe of the great calamity of heaven and earth, and he had long been prepared! However, Little White Dragon understood that the point of Xuanzang's question was not the difficulties and obstacles on the journey to the West, but whether he was sincere in following Xuanzang.

The little white dragon tilted his head to glance at the smiling monkey clone, and nodded hurriedly, "Master, my heart is as clear as the sun and the moon, and I am willing to follow you to the west."

Although Xiao Bailong didn't know why Xuan Zang was the one who made the decision between Lingming Stone Monkey and Xuan Zang, he just had to follow whoever made the decision! In this world, the greatest blessing for the weak is to follow the strong, and to follow the right strong! Now, even the spirit monkey clone let Xuan Zang make the decision, so Xiao Bailong had no hesitation.

Xuanzang smiled and said, "Since you are so sincere, it is fate that we meet. Well, just follow me on my journey to the west!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Bailong said happily: "Disciple thanks the Master!"

Seeing that Xuanzang successfully captured the little white dragon, the monkey clone smiled and said, "Ao Lie, this place is poor and has bad water. Is there a way to get there?" The little white dragon hurriedly said, "Great Sage, Shepan Mountain is desolate and there is no road. After I came here, I opened up a mountain road in case of emergency!"

Xuanzang also nodded and said, "In that case, you go ahead and lead the way!"

Xiao Bailong is the master of Yingchoujian, and he opened up this mountain road, so he should lead the way! Shepan Mountain is steep and rugged. Although there are winding mountain roads, it is still difficult to walk. However, Xuanzang and the other two are not ordinary people, so they can walk briskly on this mountain road!
A few days after the three left!

A young cultivator with a sword on his back and a gourd in his hand came from the west on a cloud! The young cultivator circled in the sky above Yingchoujian for a long time before descending from the cloud and arriving at the edge of Yingchoujian.

The young monk muttered to himself, "Based on Xuanzang's speed, he should have reached Yingchou Gorge long ago, but why is there no trace of him around Yingchou Gorge? And why is there no trace of the Third Prince of the West Sea in this gorge?"

Although the young man had a vague guess in his mind, he hesitated at the edge of the stream for a long time before he took out three incense sticks and lit them, saying respectfully to the void: "Mu Zha of Luojia Mountain invites you to see the mountain god of Shepan Mountain!"

When the three incense sticks burned out, a majestic voice asked, "Why did you invite me with incense?"

Since the rise of the Tianqi Rensheng Emperor, the status of the Earth God lineage has been greatly improved. In the past, Mu Zha, as a descendant of Guanyin Bodhisattva, could have summoned the Shepan Mountain God to serve him with only a spell! But now, if Mu Zha wants to seek advice from the mountain god, he needs to exchange incense. Over the years, the Earth God lineage has forged its own authority with the lives of countless cultivators in the heavens and the worlds. Although Mu Zha has an extraordinary status, he dare not break the rules set by the Tianqi Rensheng Emperor.

Mu Zha said softly, "May I ask the Venerable God if the monk Xuanzang who traveled to the west has arrived here? I wonder where the Third Prince of the West Sea in Yingchoujian has gone."

The majestic voice said without any ripples: "Master Xuanzang arrived at Yingchou Gorge five days ago, and the Third Prince of the West Sea in the gorge also followed Master Xuanzang on that day." After that, the voice fell completely silent, as if it had never appeared.

The Earth God lineage follows the decree of the Great Emperor Tianqi Rensheng and does not participate in any affairs of the heavens and the worlds! Any forces and cultivators in the heavens and the worlds, if they have any requests, must also offer incense to the gods! Although the great catastrophe of heaven and earth affects the heavens and the worlds, the Earth God lineage still stays out of it as a neutral identity.

Mu Zha heard what She Pan Shan said, frowned, and his heart was churning! Ever since the incident at Shuang Cha Ling, Mu Zha has always felt a little uneasy! Now, his worries have come true, and Mu Zha really doesn't know how to explain to Guanyin Bodhisattva.

At this time, all the powerful beings in the heavens also discovered the abnormality of Yingchoujian!
As the place where one of the five people who were to be robbed was to be robbed, Yingchoujian gathered a large amount of heaven and earth calamity energy! Now, this rich heaven and earth calamity energy began to flow westward like water! It was exactly the same as the situation in Shuangcha Ridge and Liangjie Mountain!
Buddhism divides the great catastrophes of heaven and earth into eighty-one difficulties, which is indeed an extremely brilliant idea!
The calamity energy between heaven and earth gathering together and exploding and dispersing into eighty-one places and disappearing are two completely different results.

However, while this idea is genius, it also has drawbacks!

For example; the disasters that Buddhism had planned in advance for the human race, as well as the disasters in Shuangcha Ridge, Liangjie Mountain, and Yingchoujian, if not eliminated in time, the calamities gathered in these disasters would gather together and brew even more terrifying disasters.
