Tang Sanzang wasn''t thinking too much, having heard the name of the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara many times but never having seen her. Now that he finally saw her true form, he couldn''t help but take a few extra looks. However, this was perceived by others as a sign of guilt, and they urged him even more urgently.

    "Your golden body, enveloped in virtues, indeed shows you''re a good Bodhisattva, what a pity you don''t lead your followers. Today, you bear the consequences of my worship all by yourself."

    Having said that, Tang Sanzang straightened up, pressed his palms together, and slightly bowed his head.

    Just at that moment, a crack sound was heard, and a crack appeared on the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara''s Dharma Aspect Golden Body!

    The crowd saw it clearly and were immediately terrified!

    Before they could react, Tang Sanzang''s head bowed even lower!

    Boom!

    The Dharma Aspect Golden Body of Avalokiteshvara directly shattered!

    Even more horrifying, as Tang Sanzang lowered his head further, the entire hall began to tremble until, with a loud rumble, it collapsed right in front of everyone!

    At that moment, everyone present was stunned, their eyes wide open!

    The old dean fell to the ground with a thud, muttering to himself, "How... how could this be possible? The Bodhisattva couldn''t withstand even one bow from him; who on earth is he?!"

    The followers were also cluelessly baffled...

    Just then, a breeze blew by, and the monk from the East emerged from the ruins, shaking his head as he walked and said, "I told you, she couldn''t withstand it, but you wouldn''t believe me. Now, look what happened! The house has collapsed, and I''m not paying for it!"

    At that moment, Guang Zhi leaped out, "Impossible... The Buddhist Law of the Bodhisattva is limitless, how could she not withstand a mortal''s bow? It must be a coincidence... our temple of Avalokiteshvara has a history of hundreds of years, this hall of Avalokiteshvara was in disrepair...

    Right, the earth trembled when you entered.

    It must have coincidentally coincided with an earthquake, and that''s why the hall collapsed."

    The moment those words were uttered, a fire rekindled in the eyes of all the followers present, as they shouted, "Yes, yes, that''s it!"

    "Exactly, it must be so!"

    "That monk from the East, what merits and abilities does he have to collapse the temple of Avalokiteshvara, it certainly must be a coincidence."

    ...

    Sun Wukong frowned and said, "What are you laughing at?"

    Guang Zhi laughed even harder, "You just said you have a treasure Kasaya? Hahaha... Maybe you have forgotten what today''s grand event is about?

    The Kasaya Festival, which is all about Kasayas!

    If it were other Buddhist treasures, we might not be able to compete with you. But when it comes to Kasayas alone, any monk here has at least twenty to thirty pieces.

    Our founder, who has been a monk for over two hundred years, holds seven to eight hundred pieces of fine and exquisite Kasayas.

    That is why we are holding this Kasaya Festival.

    Now you are talking about Kasayas?

    Hahaha..."

    Guang Zhi laughed out loud.

    The old dean coughed and said, "Guang Zhi, Guang Mou, stop just talking and bring out the Kasayas, let them have a look!"

    Clearly, the old dean and the disciples of the Guanyin Zen Temple wanted to use this incident to embarrass Tang Sanzang and regain some face themselves. Otherwise, the collapse of the Guanyin Hall, no matter whether due to an earthquake or caused by worship, would indeed be rather embarrassing!

    Seeing that he might not be able to leave without a comparison, Tang Sanzang simply stopped trying to leave and sat down to wait.

    Speaking of Kasayas, he did indeed have one on his person. But until now, he had not remembered where that Kasaya had come from.

    Certainly, it had not been on him when he was thrown into the River of Time...

    "Ah, this mysterious Kasaya, I don''t know if it can outshine the monks'' collection. If it can''t, that will be embarrassingly...," Tang Sanzang thought, suddenly slapping his thigh and a smile appearing on his lips, "Wait a minute, they all take me for that Tang Sanzang who went to the Western Paradise to fetch scriptures. So the embarrassment isn''t mine at all!"

    With that thought, Tang Sanzang''s mood instantly brightened. He sat there grinning, ready to watch a great show.

    Suddenly, a thousand or two thousand Kasayas were carried out in forty to fifty large boxes, then clothes racks were set up on both sides and the Kasayas were hung up one by one for everyone to see.

    Sun Wukong also went to take a look around, only to see the Kasayas there were all embroidered with colorful silk, and although they were extremely ornate and beautiful, not one of them was a true treasure.

    For a time, Sun Wukong felt completely confident about the upcoming competition, pondering how to shame these monks.

    Just then, a very bald, gleaming head lifted the tiger skin it was wearing, revealing a Kasaya that shone with golden light, adorned with Jade Streamed Rosy Clouds and various Treasure Beads. Amidst the exclamations of the crowd, he cheekily maneuvered among the assembled Kasayas.
