Primordial World: Big shots are all my friends-Chapter 941 - 859: Jiang Ziya Takes Action

The three, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Wujing, followed the flower boat, riding on a cloud.

The flower boat passed through the city, flew over the Imperial Palace, and along the way, the citizens looked up to watch, but there was no disturbance; eventually, the flower boat stopped at the foot of a mountain peak.

A neatly paved stone path extended into the mountain, with a pass set at the entrance and two teams of fully armed beautiful female soldiers guarding it.

The flower boat descended, and with a rustle, all the beautiful female soldiers knelt halfway and respectfully shouted in unison, "Greetings, Princess!"

Chen Daya jumped down from the bow of the boat, raised her hand, and said with a smile, "All rise!"

All the beautiful female soldiers stood up, their eyes straight ahead, exuding a cold and solemn aura, carrying an inherent heroism.

The three of Sun Wukong also descended from their cloud.

Sun Wukong looked around and said, "Hmm~ Ahead should be Nuwa’s sacrificial temple. How greatly things have changed here."

Chen Daya’s eyes shone with reverence as she said, "This is the Holy Temple of our Daughter Country, where the great Mother Goddess, Holy Mother who created Heaven and Earth, is enshrined. She possesses infinite power.

To avoid madness and hurting others, my father has imprisoned himself within the Holy Temple. Even if that person within him emerges, he wouldn’t dare behave recklessly inside the temple."

"Hmm~ So that’s how it is."

Zhu Bajie chuckled and said, "Eldest brother, before coming to the Holy Mother’s temple, you surely have to pay a visit."

Sun Wukong grinned and said, "Not just me, do you dare not to pay respects?"

The few of them walked along the ancient path of green stone inside, with three checkpoints on the way, getting stricter as they approached further inside.

A moment later, they arrived at a valley, where a stone-built Divine Temple loomed in front of them, with walls already covered in moss, ancient and weathered.

Chanting erupted from within the Divine Temple: ’Subhuti! What do you think? Can the Tathagata be seen by his physical attributes?’

’No, World Venerable! The Tathagata can’t be seen by physical attributes. Why? Because the physical attributes spoken by the Tathagata are not physical attributes.’

The Buddha told Subhuti: ’Any attribute that exists is false. If one sees attributes as non-attributes, then they see the Tathagata.’

..."

The chanting suddenly stopped.

A beam of golden light shot out from the Divine Temple.

"Ah~" Chen Daya screamed in shock, and a barrier of golden light immediately appeared before her.

The golden light, suddenly growing heavy in the void, circled around a Buddha Bead in the air, trembling.

"Snap~" The Buddha Bead shattered automatically.

Sun Wukong scratched his ears and cheeks and asked in confusion, "Bajie, Wujing, did any of you make a move?" How could it be without a trace, are they this formidable?

Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing shook their heads in unison.

"I thought it was Eldest Brother or Third Brother who acted!"

"I thought it was the two senior brothers who acted!"

The Ruler of Women’s Country walked out from the Divine Temple and said with a wry smile, "Let the three juniors forgive us, Sanzang goes mad at the sight of Yaya, and the one attacking and breaking the attack was Sanzang."

"Hey~ What is this little monk doing, let’s go, and have a look."

They immediately walked toward the main hall.

Upon entering the hall, they saw Tang Sanzang sitting cross-legged on a mat below, his expression conflicted.

The main position held a tall statue, with a light gauze curtain drawn before it, separating the view from outsiders, letting them only glimpse the statue’s shadow as if to prevent mortal desecration of the True God.

Sun Wukong and others all knelt on the mat and respectfully kowtowed three times, then rose and looked toward Tang Sanzang, who was chanting with closed eyes.

Tang Sanzang opened his eyes and, at first sight of Chen Daya, shouted fiercely with anger, "Return my Dao Fruit!"

Chen Daya took a step back in fear.

A Golden Hoop immediately appeared upon Jin Chanzi’s head, and his expression softened at once.

Tang Sanzang emerged, speaking candidly, "Jin Chanzi, do not frighten my daughter."

Sun Wukong’s eyes lit up, and he excitedly exclaimed, "Little monk, have you regained yourself?"

Tang Sanzang smiled and nodded, saying with emotion, "Wukong, Bajie, Wujing, I never thought I could see you again."

Zhu Bajie exclaimed excitedly, "Master, it’s so good to see you again. I thought I’d never see you again."

Sha Wujing also excitedly said, "Master, we can travel together again this time."

"Travel? Where to?"

Sun Wukong, grinning widely, said, "I, Old Sun, have taken a mission to seek the reincarnation of the Tathagata, and we’re also searching for seventeen Shariputra to aid Tathagata Buddha’s return.

Bajie and Sha were also entrusted with Your Majesty’s command to assist me, to protect Tathagata, and save the Three Realms."

Jin Chanzi immediately sat up from his position and exclaimed excitedly, "Let’s go! We’re off to greet the Buddha." He quickened his pace and strode out.

After taking two steps, he suddenly stopped, hesitating, with a faint Golden Hoop appearing and disappearing on his head.

Jin Chanzi, with a grimace, shouted, "Tang Sanzang~~" His expression suddenly smoothed.

Tang Sanzang, joining his hands in prayer while sitting cross-legged on the ground with a bitter expression, said, "Wukong, Bajie, Wujing, you’ve seen my situation. Inside, there’s a Jin Chanzi balancing me out, and I simply cannot act, let alone save the Three Realms."

Sun Wukong circled Tang Sanzang, poking him on the head and asked, "Bajie, Sha, come over and see."

Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing also came over, circling around Tang Sanzang and occasionally poking his head with their fingers.

"Eldest Brother, Master’s condition is very rare!"

"I, Old Sun, feel it’s similar to a spirit possession, don’t the Taoist have dharma gates to counteract possessions? You should try one on the little monk."

"Oh, Eldest Brother you make it sound easy, now both Jin Chanzi and Tang Sanzang are the masters of this body. Using the dharma gate to eliminate the Primordial Spirit, you can’t be sure who gets eliminated!"

"Eldest Brother, I think Second Brother is right."

"Can’t you designate which to eliminate?"

"Maybe others can, but I can’t do it.

"Eldest Brother, I also think Second Brother can’t!"

Tang Sanzang, in exasperation, said, "Could you stop circling? I’m getting dizzy."

Only then did the three stop and scrutinize Tang Sanzang.

Tang Sanzang’s expression changed, a cunning smile appeared at the corner of his lips as he said, "You think you can kill me?! It would take your Heavenly Emperor himself to come down here."

Sun Wukong immediately nodded, saying, "Fine, we’ll take you to the Nine Layers Pass right now."

Jin Chanzi’s expression immediately stiffened.

"Blessed Infinite Heavenly Venerable~" A Taoist invocation suddenly sounded from outside.

Sun Wukong and the others all looked outside.

They saw an old Taoist wearing a moon-white Taoist robe entering, with a rosy face and flowing white hair, perfectly fitting the image of an immortal.

"Hmm~ Jiang Ziya, you dare come before me personally, seeking death?" Sun Wukong jumped in front of Jiang Ziya, with a displeased expression. Back during the Westward Journey, this old guy often gave him trouble.

Jiang Ziya flicked his horsetail whisk, resting it on his arm, and smiled, saying, "Great Saint, don’t be hasty. I, the humble Taoist, am here to save Tang Sanzang."
