Capítulo 1441: Chapter 1439: Invitation from the Yin Emperor

“Amitabha, what the Bodhisattva of Golden Light said is extremely true. Regarding the matter of calamity creation, we indeed need to deliberate more!”

Hearing the words of the Golden Hair Lion, the Great Wisdom Buddha nodded in agreement.

However, as soon as he spoke, the Great Wisdom Buddha paused slightly and continued, “It’s just that the arrangement made by the Buddha for me on the matter of calamity creation was sudden and abrupt. For the moment, I don’t have a suitable plan, and the corresponding calamity creation problem requires me to deliberate further.”

“In that case, it will trouble the Great Wisdom Buddha!” Hearing this from the Great Wisdom Buddha, the Golden Hair Lion naturally had nothing to say and nodded in acknowledgment.

The other Buddhas in the Great Thunder Monastery also didn’t find it strange!

The Great Wisdom Buddha had already agreed to create a calamity once. In that case, whom should we turn to next?

The gaze of the Tathagata once again swept across all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas present!

Under the gaze of the Tathagata, these Buddhas and Bodhisattvas lowered their heads again, looking startled!

“Buddha, one must eat food one bite at a time, and walk the path one step at a time. Regarding the matter of the calamity, let us wait for the Great Wisdom Buddha to complete it before considering the future!”

At this moment, the Medicine Buddha spoke up, addressing the Tathagata.

“Hmm, the Medicine Buddha’s words are reasonable, so let’s put this matter aside for now!”

Hearing the advice of the Medicine Buddha, the Tathagata thought for a moment and nodded in agreement!

Hearing the Tathagata nod in confirmation, the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas of the Great Thunder Monastery each secretly sighed in relief!

So, it’s good!

Although the future calamities are still on everyone’s heads, for now, being able to dodge them temporarily is also good!

“Alright, then everyone, go attend to your own matters!” With the discussions concluded, the Tathagata waved his hand!

Immediately, the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas each left the Great Thunder Monastery!

The Golden Hair Lion thought about it and caught up with the Great Wisdom Buddha to discuss the new calamity creation and how to cooperate.

However, facing the Golden Hair Lion, though the Great Wisdom Buddha was courteous, when it came to discussing how to create the new calamity, the Great Wisdom Buddha merely stated that it required a lot of consideration from him!

In the short term, he couldn’t think of any suitable method!

“Alas, it seems I’ll have to wait for some time before asking him again!” Watching the departing figure of the Great Wisdom Buddha, the Golden Hair Lion sighed inwardly.

Every time there was a problem with the calamity, it was up to him to clarify the specific steps and then notify the Holy Monk Xuanzang!

This time, he naturally needed to clarify the specific steps again to ensure everything was in order!

Drip, drip, drip!

Just as the Golden Hair Lion returned to the Purple Bamboo Forest, the sound of a message arriving rang out!

The Golden Hair Lion opened the dialogue box, and sure enough, it was a message from the Holy Monk Xuanzang, inquiring about the reaction of the Tathagata after explaining the difficulties to him.

The Golden Hair Lion naturally did not intend to hide anything from Jiang Liu and explained everything that happened at the Great Thunder Monastery to Jiang Liu in detail!

“In that case, there’s no need for you to inquire further about the specifics on the side of the Great Wisdom Buddha. Just be a hands-off manager!”

After explaining what happened at the Great Thunder Monastery, another message came over from Master Xuanzang.

“Being a hands-off manager?” Seeing this message, the Golden Hair Lion was momentarily stunned!

Could it be that the Holy Monk Xuanzang doesn’t want to know exactly how the Great Wisdom Buddha will operate? Isn’t this different from the usual situation?

“If I’m not mistaken, perhaps the Great Wisdom Buddha has some suspicions about you! If you query further, it might increase his doubts!”

Just as the Golden Hair Lion was secretly puzzled, another message came from the Holy Monk Xuanzang!

Seeing this message, the Golden Hair Lion’s expression changed, and then he realized!

Indeed! What the Holy Monk Xuanzang said is indeed reasonable!

The Great Wisdom Buddha is inherently a figure of remarkable wisdom in the Buddhist Sect. Reflecting on the Great Wisdom Buddha’s reaction, it seems reasonable to think he might be suspicious of him!

Upon this thought, the Golden Hair Lion felt a wave of fear!

If his situation were truly exposed and the Buddhist Sect knew that he and Master Xuanzang were cooperating to undermine many fellow Buddhists…

Master Xuanzang is now at the Quasi-Saint level, and no one can do anything to him!

But as for himself? Surely he would face inevitable death?

“Thank you, Holy Monk, for the reminder! I understand!” Despite the lingering fear, the Golden Hair Lion was quick to express his gratitude to Jiang Liu!

He then made up his mind to stay in the Purple Bamboo Forest for the time being. Regarding the Great Wisdom Buddha’s calamity creation, he indeed needed to remain a hands-off manager, pretending he had no interest and would not interfere!

“The Great Wisdom Buddha? So, for the upcoming calamities, has the Buddhist Sect decided to focus entirely on battles of wisdom?”

On the road of the Journey to the West for Scriptures, Jiang Liu closed the dialogue box between himself and the Golden Hair Lion, reflecting quietly in his heart.

After pondering for a moment, Jiang Liu shook his head inwardly!

Now that I don’t even know how the Great Wisdom Buddha will act, why waste my mental energy pondering these things?

I might as well use this opportunity to run some more instances!

Jiang Liu, gathering his thoughts, took his three corpses and his disciples to clear a few more rounds in the dungeon!

The aura surrounding Sun Wukong suddenly surged, and in his own words, his cultivation level had reached the Great Luo Peak!

At the same time, Jiang Liu also opened Sun Wukong’s character panel for a look!

Sure enough, Sun Wukong’s level column had increased to level 90!

Good things come in pairs; as Sun Wukong’s aura surged and his level increased to 90, suddenly a tribulation cloud appeared beside him!

It was the tribulation cloud of the True Self Corpse, his level had also broken through to level 61, achieving the Immortal Path, thus causing the tribulation cloud to appear!

The True Self Corpse overcoming the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation was naturally not a difficult matter!

And Sun Wukong breaking through to level 90 was certainly something worth celebrating!

This made Jiang Liu feel even more excited!

If they intensify their dungeon runs, with Sun Wukong’s growth rate, it’s indeed possible to reach the Quasi-Saint level before arriving at the Great Thunder Monastery!

“Alright, everyone, it looks like it’s getting late, so let’s get some rest!”

After the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation of the True Self Corpse was overcome, Jiang Liu called out, and then put away the Map of Mountains and Rivers!

The original group of five on the Journey to the West for Scriptures, plus the three corpses, had become a group of eight!

After preparing enough food, everyone sat together and ate merrily!

“We’ve already faced Randeng Buddha a few times before! But now, we’re nearing the Great Thunder Monastery. Should we think of a way to eliminate Randeng Buddha?”

Sitting at the dining table, Jiang Liu pondered to himself!

With Jiang Liu’s current strength, to weaken the power of the Buddhist Sect, his main focus is on Quasi-Saints like Randeng Buddha!

Moreover, the Life-Bound Ancient Lantern of Randeng Buddha had been given to him by Ksitigarbha, providing him with ample room for maneuver!

Besides, holding the Godslaying Spear, he can kill without involving karma!

Killing a strong Quasi-Saint Peak like Randeng, surely, the attack attribute of the Godslaying Spear would significantly enhance, right?

Knock knock knock!

However, just as Jiang Liu was contemplating the plan to kill Randeng Buddha, suddenly, the door of the Exquisite Immortal Mansion was knocked!

“Master, I’ll get the door!” Sha Wujing stood up and said!

With that, he headed towards the door.

Soon after, Sha Wujing returned bringing in a figure, dressed in a striking red official robe, but his appearance exuded an air of fierce hostility!

“Judge Lu from the Underworld, greetings to the Merit Buddha, to the Great Sage, to Marshal Tianpeng, to General Juanlian, to the Third Crown Prince…”

After entering, this figure greeted Jiang Liu and his companions one by one!

“Hey, what about me? Why didn’t you greet me? Look down on me, do you?” At this moment, the True Self Corpse tapped the table, stood up, and said to Judge Lu with displeasure.

“May I ask who you are?” Seeing the demeanor of the True Self Corpse, Judge Lu assumed a humble posture, cupped his hands in salute, and asked.

“Alright, he’s just a joker, don’t mind him!”

But just then, Jiang Liu stepped forward two steps, blocking the view of the True Self Corpse, and focused his gaze on Judge Lu, saying: “May I ask, Judge, why have you come to the Mortal World seeking us monks?”

“Here’s the thing!”

Knowing that Jiang Liu is leading the team, since Jiang Liu said it’s alright, Judge Lu naturally didn’t pay further attention to the True Self Corpse and said: “I came here today with a message to deliver on behalf of His Majesty the Yin Emperor!”

“His Majesty the Yin Emperor invites the Merit Buddha to visit the Netherworld at his convenience, hoping for the honor of your presence!”

“The Yin Emperor, huh?” Upon hearing Judge Lu’s words, Jiang Liu’s heart was slightly moved!

The Yin Emperor is nominally the ruler of the Netherworld, but after the Jade Emperor took charge of the Netherworld, the Yin Emperor became marginalized and seemed to have been in seclusion all these years!

Suddenly, the Yin Emperor wants to see me now? What for?

Jiang Liu wasn’t foolish; naturally, he had some guesses in his heart!

“I understand, please go back and report to Judge Lu that when I have the opportunity, I will visit the Netherworld!” After a moment’s thought, Jiang Liu nodded to Judge Lu.

“In that case, I shall return to the Netherworld! Awaiting the grand presence of the Merit Buddha on behalf of the Yin Emperor!”

Having received Jiang Liu’s affirmative reply, Judge Lu’s task in the Mortal World was complete. After nodding, he bid farewell.

“Judge Lu, would you like to stay for a meal before you go?” Jiang Liu asked with genuine hospitality.

“I won’t disturb the Merit Buddha and company!”

However, knowing he wasn’t qualified to dine with Jiang Liu and his companions, Judge Lu politely declined and promptly left the Exquisite Immortal Mansion!
