Bodhi Waits Bitterly for the Monkey, Buddhism's Two Saints Enraged!

"Master, if I get a Mistress, will you recognize me as your son?"

"Cough, cough..."

Zhou Xuan originally wanted to refuse, but seeing Sun Wukong's eager expression, he changed his tune:

"Well... something like that!"

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong cheered:

"Great! Master, you wait! Old Sun will definitely become strong and bring all the beauties from the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands to you, the pure ones, the charming ones, the alluring ones, the dark and mature ones, the contrasting cute ones..."

Seeing Sun Wukong getting more and more outrageous, Zhou Xuan kicked him and said:

"You monkey, you're talking nonsense! You've already got the cultivation method, why aren't you off to cultivate? Don't disturb this master's reading!"

After speaking, Zhou Xuan waved his hand and lay back down on the rocking chair.

A book appeared in his hand, titled On a Rainy Day, I, a High School Student, Was Soaked and Hid in a Convenience Store. The Store Was Empty Except for a Few Male Staff Members Who Kept Staring at Me!.

Sun Wukong counted the characters. There were thirty-nine in total, and he sighed enviously:

"Master's book titles are getting longer and longer. When will Old Sun be qualified to read such long books!"

"No, Master is working so hard, I must also cultivate diligently."

The monkey said, shook his head, and went to the side to cultivate.

Meanwhile, a voice echoed in Zhou Xuan's mind again.

[Ding, Sun Wukong has absorbed and refined ten thousand strands of true spirit, his cultivation has slightly increased.]

[Ten Billion Times Share, host has absorbed and refined one hundred trillion strands of true spirit, his cultivation has slightly increased.]

[Ding, Sun Wukong has absorbed and refined ten thousand strands of true spirit, his cultivation has slightly increased.]

[Ten Billion Times Share, host has absorbed and refined one hundred trillion strands of true spirit, his cultivation has slightly increased.]

On the other side, Western Ox Continent.

Spiritual Terrace Square Inch Mountain, Slanting Moon Three Stars Cave.

Patriarch Bodhi knocked the monkey's head three times and happily returned to his bedroom, waiting for the monkey's arrival.

One chime!

Two chimes!

Three chimes!

Outside the window, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, the gentle breeze played with shadows, and all was silent.

Let alone the monkey, not even a ghost was in sight.

"Where's the monkey?"

"Where's my monkey?"

"Could it be that the monkey is too stupid to figure out this riddle?"

Patriarch Bodhi waited until the sun was high in the sky, but he didn't see a single monkey hair.

"Forget it, it's better if the monkey is a little stupid. He's just a tool monkey anyway!"

"Since he's not coming to me, this Patriarch will go find him."

However, Patriarch Bodhi searched the entire Spiritual Terrace Square Inch Mountain, and even scoured the surrounding hundred miles, but Sun Wukong had vanished as if he had evaporated, leaving no trace.

Patriarch Bodhi pinched his fingers and carefully deduced the heavenly secrets, but still found nothing!

This monkey had completely disappeared!

"Ahhhhhh, who the hell tricked my monkey away?"

"Damn it!"

Patriarch Bodhi cursed twice, completely losing his immortal demeanor!

"No, the monkey is lost!"

"This is a matter of great importance, I must immediately inform my fellow Daoists Jieyin and Zhunti!"

It turned out that Patriarch Bodhi was one of the two Sages of Buddhism, the good corpse of Saint Zhunti!

After the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation, Dao Ancestor Hongjun, along with the Heavenly Dao, established rules that Saints were not allowed to personally enter the Primordial World.

And Bodhi, as Zhunti's good corpse, became Zhunti's spokesperson in the Primordial World.

This Great Tribulation of Journey to the West, the spreading of Buddhist Dharma to the East, and the great prosperity of Buddhism were both a promise from Dao Ancestor Hongjun and a karmic debt he owed back then.

Buddhism laid out the plan for Journey to the West, and Sun Wukong was the most crucial piece on the board. Now, before Journey to the West had even begun, the piece was lost!

Patriarch Bodhi wanted to cry but had no tears!

"Who? Who dares to oppose Buddhism!"

"They're simply asking for death!"

Deep within Sumeru Mountain, in the Chaos.

Here, Buddhist light filled the air, shining brilliantly!

The Buddhist aura was boundless, truly representing the immeasurable Buddhist Dharma, with no shore to turn back to.

"What, the monkey is lost?"

"Strange, the heavenly secrets are in complete disarray, I can't deduce anything!"

"Which Saint actually made a move?"

"To dare to ruin our Buddhist opportunity!"

The two speaking were the two Saints of Buddhism, Jieyin and Zhunti.

Years ago, to prove their Dao, they had made forty-eight grand vows and borrowed a vast amount of Merit from the Heavenly Dao, becoming Saints through loans.

However, over the years, to repay these borrowed Merit!

Zhunti and Jieyin had lived on loans, overdrawn their credit significantly, robbing Peter to pay Paul, and accumulating a massive amount of high-interest debt!

They were on the verge of being unable to repay, being blacklisted by the Heavenly Dao and becoming wanted Saints!

And now, with the Great Tribulation of Journey to the West and Buddhism Spreading East!

Once completed, not only would the Dao Ancestor repay his karma, but the Heavenly Dao would also bestow a large amount of Merit!

This was their golden opportunity to turn their fortunes around!

Not only could they repay the interest, but they could also reap immense rewards!

"Whoever dares to obstruct the Great Tribulation of Journey to the West, whoever dares to prevent the great flourishing of Buddhism, must die!"

"My senior brother is right, this is our last chance to turn things around. Anyone who dares to make us wanted Saints will be killed!"

At this moment, the faces of Jieyin and Zhunti, like gamblers, flashed with murderous intent!

As Saints, they couldn't even deduce Sun Wukong's whereabouts!

There could only be one reason: another Saint had intervened, obscuring the heavenly secrets!

"Junior brother, which Saint do you think made a move? To obstruct the great flourishing of our Buddhism?" Jieyin asked, uncertain.

Zhunti's gaze turned grim as he said, "It's either that bitch Nuwa, or that show-off Tongtian!"

"What do you mean?"

"That monkey was born from Nuwa's Sky-Mending Stone. It's highly possible that Nuwa is secretly helping that monkey!"

"As for Tongtian, during the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation, even his chief disciple Duobao betrayed his sect and joined our Buddhism, becoming Dabao Tathagata. Do you think Tongtian wouldn't hold a grudge?"

Hearing this, Jieyin sighed and said, "After the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation, wasn't Tongtian punished by our teacher in the Purple Heaven Palace, became disheartened, and fled into the depths of Chaos in search of new opportunities? There has been no news from him all these years!"

Zhunti shook his head and said, "Perhaps Tongtian has found a new opportunity and has returned for revenge!"

A fierce glint flashed across Jieyin's face:

"Hmph, whether it's Nuwa or Tongtian, obstructing the Great Tribulation of Journey to the West is going against our teacher, and going against the Heavenly Dao!"

"Let's go to the Purple Firmament Palace now and find our teacher!"

As the words fell, the two transformed into streams of light and fled into the depths of Chaos.

Deep within the Chaos, at the Eight Sceneries Palace dojo.

It was like a paradise, with beautiful mountains and clear waters!

Every blade of grass and tree resonated with the heavenly secrets!

Every flower and leaf was naturally formed!

Furthermore, the Yin and Yang energies intertwined, giving rise to endless life, forming the Taiji Diagram.

This was the renowned dojo of the foremost of the Three Pure Ones, Grand Pure Laozi.

After the Saints withdrew from the Primordial World, he had traveled to the Chaos, re-established his dojo, and meditated on the Heavenly Dao here, seeking further advancement.

However, as the Great Tribulation of Journey to the West gradually approached and Buddhism became more active, Grand Pure Laozi also began to frequently deduce the heavenly secrets.

Initially, the heavenly secrets were still clear!

Vigorous purple energy emanated from the West, and the great flourishing of Buddhism was imminent.

However, starting a few days ago, the heavenly secrets suddenly became chaotic, shrouded in mist!

Even he was completely baffled!

One had to know, among the various Saints, Grand Pure Laozi was exceptionally skilled at deduction, his prowess in this area not much weaker than the Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

"Who exactly has the ability to conceal the Heavenly Dao?"

"Only a Saint could possess such power."

"Could it be Nuwa?"

"No, Nuwa didn't even care about the Human race back then, nor did she pay attention to the Demon race. How could she possibly care about the life or death of a mere monkey!"

Grand Pure Laozi frowned, pondering deeply.

"Could it be Tongtian?"

"That's it! Perhaps Tongtian found a new opportunity in the Chaos, his strength surged, and he's returned for revenge! Given Tongtian's arrogance, he would never tolerate the grievance of the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation."

Thinking this, Grand Pure Laozi's tone became somewhat helpless.

"Tongtian, ever since the Three Pure Ones parted ways, you've been unrestrained and willful without your elder brothers' supervision, repeatedly defying the Heavenly Dao!"

"Was the lesson of the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation not enough? Was the punishment from the Teacher not severe enough?"

"If you continue to act so recklessly, I will borrow the Saint-Slaying Pill from the Teacher and seal your cultivation!"

"And punish you to reflect in Biyou Palace for a hundred thousand years!"
