Chapter 410 Great ambitions

"Where are you from?"

"I came from the Tang Dynasty in the East and went to the West to worship Buddha and seek scriptures!" Tang Xuanzang answered subconsciously.

"Master, don't be afraid. We are the messengers sent by the Buddha to escort you on your journey west!"

Mu Yilang laughed and comforted the somewhat panicked Tang Seng.

"So that's how it is!" Tang Seng didn't know whether he believed it or not. At least he was a little calmer than the panic he couldn't hide just now.

"Master, please wait here for a moment. The four of us will pack our luggage and escort you to the Western Paradise!"

After settling Tang Seng down, the four of them left Tang Seng's side tacitly and hurried towards the direction of the Tang Dynasty.

Jin Chanzi specially arranged for them to wait at Liangjie Mountain. There must be something between Liangjie Mountain and Datang that they should not know.

However, when they really rushed to the Tang Dynasty, they saw a scene they had never imagined.

"Damn it! What the hell is going on!"

Bones, bones everywhere.

And above the bones and corpses, a dynasty was built.

The resentment that was so thick that it condensed into a physical entity hovered over the Tang Dynasty, forming a ghost zone.

Reality and the ghost realm complement each other, making it difficult to distinguish what is real or illusory.

"How could Heaven tolerate such a thing?"

Jing Liuyun's face looked extremely ugly. From the moment he saw Mu Yi and the others, he had already realized that this commission was not as simple as he had imagined. However, when they really saw the tip of the iceberg of the truth, he still underestimated the commission this time.

"What on earth are these crazy people in Buddhism hiding?"

"It seems that Jin Chanzi has too many things that he didn't explain clearly to us!" Murphy gently sniffed a white plum in his hand.

Then he casually threw it into the ghostland built of bones. In just a moment, the white plum blossoms were corroded by the ghostland and withered.

"If we can eliminate the resentment here, it should be a great merit. This should also be Jin Chanzi's ultimate goal." Murphy gave a positive answer.

"Cough cough cough..." Shen Wanqian coughed twice and spoke slowly.

"It seems like we need to share... ahem... information with each other!"

After saying this, he continued talking without caring about the reactions of the other three people.

"Jin Chanzi found me and hoped that I could join the team going west and escort him to the West to seek the true scriptures."

"You may not know that there is a shortcut to this merit. Buddhism has a method of great aspirations, which can gain great merit by making a vow."

"But this method has advantages and disadvantages."

"The advantage is that you can stably become a true Buddha, but the price is too high!"

"Back then, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva made a great wish and achieved his goal."

"I will not attain Bodhi until all sentient beings are saved, and I will not attain Buddhahood until hell is empty."

"It is a great compassion and a great merit, so Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva achieved Buddhahood as he wished, and is called the Great Vow Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva."

At this point, Shen Wanqian's face flushed a little, he coughed up a mouthful of blood, and continued.

"But the price is that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva cannot leave the netherworld, nor can he truly become a Buddha. Even if he possesses the power of a Buddha, he is only a Bodhisattva. Unless one day, he can truly realize his great wish!"

"Later, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva improved this method of great aspirations. Although you can no longer fly into the sky directly by making great aspirations, you can still gain great magical powers by making great aspirations!"

"The lower the strength, the better the effect. If my guess is correct, Jin Chanzi is a reincarnated body who has set a goal to go to the West to seek the true scriptures in a mortal body, and then save the resentful ghosts in this place, and then gain great merit to achieve Buddhahood."

After Shen Wanqian finished speaking, he silently tightened his fur coat. Although he was already invulnerable to cold and heat, he could not change this habit.

The other three remained silent. They understood that this method of great aspiration was indeed powerful. Even if one could not become a true Buddha in one go, one could always achieve it by doing it a few more times.

At least it is a path to Buddhahood that is visible to the naked eye.

Compared with other uncertain roads, it has unique stability.

Limiting one's own strength in exchange for more merit is indeed a good idea. At the same time, in order to achieve it, he also specially sought out a protector, which can be regarded as a comprehensive strategy.

"It is already determined that we will encounter 81 difficulties on our journey westwards. With this test added to the mix, I am afraid our journey will not be easy!"

Murphy was fiddling with a plum blossom in his hand.

"What I learned is called Plum Blossom Divination, which can reveal the secrets of heaven. However, the secrets of heaven in the world of the second square are chaotic, and this is all I can see."

Jing Liuyun reached out and replaced the mask on his face with a blank clock mask, his voice neither sad nor happy.

"What's more troublesome is the time!"

"According to Jin Chanzi, the true spirit of the Candle Dragon descended upon this world, and time is running wild. The speed of time in various regions is probably already in chaos!"

"A thousand years is enough time for great changes to happen, and it is also enough time for a small demon to become a big demon."

After listening to the three people's remarks, Mu Yi just felt a headache.

Jin Chanzi definitely did not lie, but he must have been hiding something. Sometimes you don't need to tell lies to deceive people.

No wonder he was so generous and determined to go west. He even put layers of shackles on himself for this purpose. It was really the style of Buddhism. He was cruel to others and even crueler to himself.

Sighing, Mu Yi spoke slowly.

"I can only tell you one thing!"

"I can't feel the breath of heaven or hell in this world."

"On Jin Chanzi's journey to the west, he had the help of many gods and Buddhas. Now I'm afraid we have to face it alone!"

All four of them were silent. Although after some communication, their mission was still to escort Tang Monk to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures, the actual content was completely different.

It feels like a big pit, waiting for them to jump in.

"Let me tell you another good news!" Mu Yi laughed.

"Our enemies have increased in number! And they have united!"

Several pieces of online news popped up on Mu Yi's retina.

"Network Tip: A team from the Network has used directional selection and entered the current world. A new camp has appeared and the relationship between the two camps is hostile."

"Comprehensive network reminder: The current opposing camps are the Disaster Camp and the Westward Journey Camp."

"Let's go, we have to move faster, otherwise, we won't be facing a group of scattered people, but an alliance!"

……

The four of them returned to Liangjie Mountain without saying anything. They just took Tang Seng and started to move westward along the road towards the Lingshan Mountain in the West.

"Sure enough, everything is different now!"

According to the original route, the first place they arrived at should be the Guanyin Temple, and the first opponent they encountered should be the black bear demon.

However, there was nothing on Black Wind Mountain, and even the Guanyin Temple was a charred ruin. God knows what timeline this Guanyin Temple was in.

"These little monsters gathered here after the Black Wind Mountain was deserted. We can't find any useful information about them at all!" Mu Yi threw the bodies of the little monsters aside and sighed.

Tang Seng's face was full of compassion, and he began to perform a ritual to help the little demons to be liberated.

Although the souls of these little monsters had long been sent to reincarnation by Mu Yi, Tang Seng still insisted on doing so, and Mu Yi and the others did not stop him.

Although they were in a hurry on the road, they didn't mind spending a little more time.

Black Wind Mountain, Yellow Wind Territory... the whole journey was surprisingly calm, giving everyone a feeling that a storm was about to come.

There are some houses along the way, not as strange as those in the Tang Dynasty.

When they reached a river with clear water and cool waves, Mu Yi and his companions asked for a small boat and headed for the other side.

"Hmm?" Murphy flicked his fingers and threw out several silver needles, which pierced into the void, but there was nothing and nothing appeared.

"A mere trifle!" Murphy snorted coldly, his figure turned into a shadow and disappeared into the void, disappearing to an unknown place.

Murphy's disappearance was like turning on a switch. Hundreds of water arrows rushed out from the river, and hundreds of little demons rushed towards the boat with weapons in hand.

There seemed to be hundreds of water monsters underwater who wanted to sink the boat and make Tang Seng fall.

Some small monsters were just like ants. Jing Liuyun took out a large chessboard from somewhere, and black and white chess pieces fell one after another, instantly turning hundreds of small monsters into a bloody mist.

A huge waterfall burst out from the surface of the river, and a burly goblin wearing silver armor, a helmet and holding a poisonous dragon spear pounced over.

The black and white chess pieces gathered together, but were all shattered by his shot.

"Finally, I can stretch my muscles. Don't fight with us for this!" Jing Liuyun had changed into a shirtless and rough look at some point, and rushed directly towards the burly goblin.

"Leave this to me!" Shen Wanqian stretched out his hand, and countless copper coins hid Tang Seng's figure.

Mu Yi was also relieved. Compared to protecting Tang Seng, he was more accustomed to killing all his opponents.

He walked leisurely across the water before he could make a move.

A black knight wearing heavy armor descended from the sky on a Pegasus and smashed the boat with two heavy swords in his hands.

Countless copper coins appeared out of thin air and blasted it out directly. Then a huge gold ingot fell from the sky and hit the black knight.

Just as Mu Yi stopped to watch the fight between dragons and tigers, demonic energy rose into the sky from under the water. Hundreds of thousands of white silver threads shot up into the sky, dancing quickly in the air and forming a spider web that covered Mu Yi.

"Spider spirit?"

Mu Yi laughed. There were a few familiar figures. It seemed that this Journey to the West was quite authentic.

With a thought, the fire of hell ignited without wind and burned the fallen spider web to ashes.

"Hehe, you servants have been waiting here for a long time!"

At this moment, a beautiful woman holding a pipa was sitting on the spider web. She was wearing a moon-white dress and was plucking the pipa with her slender fingers.

Waves of sound spread out, but Mu Yi remained unmoved. The barrier separated the inside and the outside, so even if the sound of the pipa was loud, it had no effect on him.

"Pipa Fairy?"

Mu Yi casually flicked out a Shura sword and shot it towards the face of the Pipa Spirit.

A golden light, like a sharp sword, broke the Shura Sword.

"The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord?"

Mu Yi looked at the monster in the bamboo hat that emerged from behind a rock.

"Spiders, scorpions, centipedes... why are there no toads and geckos!" Mu Yi asked with a smile. Only toads and geckos were missing to complete the five poisonous creatures.

"Don't worry, sir. We are here!"

As soon as Mu Yi finished speaking, two figures stood out from below.

One of them was red all over, with swollen cheeks, and it was obvious at first glance that it was a toad that had transformed into a spirit. The other one was also wearing a hat, so its appearance could not be seen clearly, but it was obvious that it was the last demon among the Five Poisonous Creatures.

"Is it really the Five Poisons?"

Mu Yi looked at the toads and geckos that should not exist on the journey to the West. The journey to the West really became more difficult. Not only did monsters begin to gather in groups, but even some monsters that did not exist appeared.

Judging from its aura, it should be a big monster, not a small minion.

"Set up the formation!"

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord growled.

The seven spider spirits opened their snow-white bellies and performed magic from their belly buttons. Silver spider silk rushed straight towards Mu Yi. At the same time, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord laughed sinisterly, and his whole body was shining with golden light. Thousands of golden lights shot out like sharp arrows.

The toad spirit's cheeks swelled up, and then it spat out a mouthful of something as hot as magma. The gecko spirit indeed disappeared into the void and its whereabouts were unknown.

Mu Yi created a sea of ​​blood to block all attacks.

The gecko spirit stuck out its tongue from the void and poked at Mu Yi's forehead, but Mu Yi dodged it by turning his head and grabbed the gecko's tongue with his backhand. Scarlet blood flames spread from the tongue into the gecko spirit's body, and then exploded with a loud bang.

The Pipa Fairy swung her body like a scorpion swinging its tail. The poisonous stake that was said to have stung the Buddha was extremely domineering.

However, how could Mu Yi, who had been prepared, give the Pipa Spirit a chance? His poisoned body turned into blood and dispersed. Mu Yi's true body appeared and cut off the scorpion's tail with one knife.

"Come together and kill him!"

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord roared, and thousands of golden lights enveloped Mu Yi like sharp arrows.

"It seems that you have some misunderstandings!"

Mu Yi stretched out his hand calmly. He just wanted to see the enhanced strength of these monsters, but it seemed to give them the illusion that they could successfully kill him.

These monsters are indeed quite impressive. The strength of the gecko spirit is barely enough to be a demigod. Converted to the standards of the comprehensive network, the challenge level is probably around level 33.

The combined challenge level of the seven spider spirits is about 30.

The strongest one, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, has a challenge level of only around level 35.

Although it is troublesome to have so many of them appear in such large numbers, for Mu Yi now, it is not worth mentioning at all.

The only notable poisonous stake that could cause a horse to fall was neutralized by him using his substitute, so he naturally had no fear of the rest.

"The way of the world!"

The golden light swept past, and monsters such as the Hundred-Eyed Demon King disappeared instantly.

All the people and monsters who had been secretly watching the battle here with various means were stunned. Their faces changed drastically, as if they had seen a ghost.

Another name flashed through their minds at the same time.

The five-color divine light touches everything.

However, Mu Yi actually just threw a few monsters into the reincarnation barrier, and the army of the human world formed a formation to fight them.

But to outsiders, it seemed that Mu Yi took down several monsters in an instant.
