Chapter 962: Chapter 879: Sun Wukong Presents the Shariputra

"My master said there are seventeen relics, and they have to be embedded into Tathagata’s reincarnated spiritual child. Why can’t we find them now?"

Zhu Bajie said honestly, "Brother Monkey, could your master be too old and have remembered wrong!" 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Sha Wujing also nodded and said, "Brother Monkey, I think second brother is right."

Dong~

Dong~

Dong~

Three heavy sounds reverberated through the Three Realms, causing the souls of all who heard it to tremble, and an imposing, magnificent Immortal Palace appeared in their minds.

Sun Wukong immediately looked up, uncertainly exclaiming, "Gathering God Drum, what happened? Could it be that Nine Layers Pass can’t hold out?"

Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing also looked up towards the sky.

Zhu Bajie said in a low voice, "Big Brother, time is almost up, and the Demon Realm and Heavenly Court are probably about to launch their final battle."

"Damn it!" Sun Wukong shouted angrily, hesitated for a moment, then decisively said, "No matter, we’ll first embed these sixteen relics into the reincarnated spiritual child. Whether they become the Buddha depends on their fate; we’ll go support Nine Layers Pass."

Zhu Bajie reminded, "Brother Monkey, did you forget what the Emperor said?

We only found sixteen relics, so what the Emperor said is probably right. Therefore, the relics’ purpose isn’t to awaken Tathagata, and they can’t be embedded into the reincarnated spiritual child.

What we need to do now is to find the Emperor first and ask about the usage of the relics."

Sha Wujing nodded repeatedly and said, "Big Brother, Second Brother is right."

"Do you know where the Emperor is?"

Zhu Bajie chuckled and said, "We just need to check the Emperor’s space to know."

Zhu Bajie reached into his pocket, took out his Three Realms Mall, found Emperor Gouchen in his friends list, and entered the Emperor’s personal space.

The first message was a picture of the sea, accompanied by a line: ’Leisurely drifting on the East Sea, fishing dragons for soup.’

A string of likes followed below, including some familiar big shots like the Heavenly Emperor Hao Tian, Maitreya Buddha, Immortal Zhenyuan, and others.

Sun Wukong and Sha Wujing craned their necks to take a look.

Sun Wukong muttered, "The Emperor is back in the East Sea again? What about the safety of the reincarnated spiritual child?"

"Don’t worry! The Emperor must have arranged everything.

Let’s go find the Emperor now."

The trio immediately rode on a cloud towards the East Sea.

With their high skills, naturally, their speed was fast, and the three clouds streaked across the sky as fast-moving white lights.

In the sky above the East Sea, three auspicious clouds moved swiftly. Sun Wukong stood on tiptoes atop the cloud, looking down, his monkey eyes shimmering, glinting with golden light.

Sun Wukong suddenly laughed and said, "The Emperor is indeed here fishing! Junior brothers, follow me."

The three of them immediately descended from the cloud, shooting towards the bottom.

On a three-story dragon-bone ship, Bai Jin sat on the topmost level, leisurely sunbathing, with fruits and drinks on the left and a fishing rod on the right.

The three auspicious clouds descended, hovering in front of the dragon-bone ship.

Sun Wukong grinned, clasping his hands and saying, "Emperor, it’s your old friend Sun Wukong coming to see you again."

Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing also clasped their hands in salute and said, "Greetings to the Emperor!"

Bai Jin sat up from his lounge chair, laughing heartily and saying, "I guessed you all would come, here for the relics, right?"

Sun Wukong chuckled and said, "The Emperor has seen through everything, you’re absolutely right."

"You can’t find the seventeenth relic, can you?"

The three of them nodded repeatedly, eagerly looking at Bai Jin.

Bai Jin sighed and said, "Because there are no seventeen relics in this world, only sixteen."

"But my master told me there are seventeen relics."

Bai Jin chuckled and said, "Do you know the origin of these seventeen relics?"

Sun Wukong, Sha Wujing, and Zhu Bajie all shook their heads together.

"In ancient times, Buddhism was known as the Western Sect, and these sixteen relics were left by the Buddhas of the Western Sect. No one knows how many billions of years have passed since then.

Even now, those who remember do so vaguely; some say there are fifteen relics, some say seventeen or eighteen, but in fact, there are only sixteen, and they are completely unrelated to Tathagata."

"So that’s how it is," Sun Wukong said irritably, "Then wasn’t all our effort in finding these relics for nothing?"

"How could it be for nothing? Even now, these relics remain supreme treasures."

Bai Jin explained, "These relics contain the essence of ancient Buddhas. I can refine them and integrate them into your cultivation, enough to let you enter the Quasi-Saint Realm."

Sun Wukong’s monkey eyes lit up instantly, excitedly shouting, "Quasi-Saint Realm? Like those seniors in the Law Enforcement Team?"

"A bit weaker."

Sun Wukong immediately shouted excitedly, "Thank you, Emperor. Please, Emperor, perform your magic." The monkey made a spell with his paw, and one by one, the golden-glowing relics flew out of his body, hovering in front of Bai Jin.

Bai Jin’s eyebrows and eyes twitched twice. This surging power was definitely not from ordinary Buddhist relics. Reflecting on the Buddhist great powers he knew, such as Maitreya, Pharmacist, Ksitigarbha, Mahasthamaprapta, none fit these relics, and he even felt that the inherent Buddha principle surpassed that of Maitreya and others.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through Bai Jin’s mind: could these be the relics from before Zhunti Buddha Mother’s Enlightenment? He waved his hand, collecting all the relics.

Zhu Bajie asked, "Emperor, as far as Old Pig knows, the Quasi-Saint Realm depends on Enlightenment. Only by stepping on the path of Tao and mastering a Great Tao can one enter the Quasi-Saint Realm. Simply using relics to boost cultivation might not be enough."

Bai Jin smiled and said, "These relics are not ordinary. They contain a hint of holy meaning, enough to transform your mana, infusing it with the Power of Laws."

"Just mana transformation."

Zhu Bajie immediately shook his head and said, "No, no, this isn’t the right path. Old Pig has his own way, without the right Heart Realm, the Great Tao won’t manifest. Forcibly increasing mana only leads to an inferior path, counter to Old Pig’s cultivation."

Bai Jin nodded approvingly; despite Zhu Bajie usually being unassuming, in cultivation, he was steady and solid, possessing the demeanor of a Human Sect disciple.

Sha Wujing also shook his head and said, "I don’t want it either. This method of achieving Quasi-Saint must have drawbacks."

Bai Jin nodded and said, "You’re right. This method of achieving Quasi-Saint lags in Heart Realm compared to cultivation, leaving no possibility for further progress, and may even fall under the influence of Buddhist law, leading to a drift towards Buddhism."

Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing’s faces changed, nodding repeatedly and exclaiming, "No, no!" backing away quickly.

Sun Wukong also quickly said, "Emperor, your old friend doesn’t want it either; I don’t want to be swayed by Buddhism in the future."
