"And you as well, Giant Scorpion!"

The corner of Poxun's mouth lifted as he said, "Your Dudi Mountain's Pipa Cave... it seems the Scripture Seeker will pass by there too."

"What? Dudi Mountain's Pipa Cave?"

Lu Chuan was rather surprised. Wasn't that the territory of the Scorpion Spirit near the Women's Kingdom?

Back then, he had calculated the distance all the way east from the Western Continent, and had those mountain gods, land gods, Water Gods and the like draw up a map.

This Dudi Mountain was just outside the Women's Kingdom's capital.

In Journey to the West, a Scorpion Spirit lived in Pipa Cave on Dudi Mountain, beautiful as a flower, with vast divine powers and formidable martial arts.

That Scorpion Spirit had even listened to Tathagata preach the scriptures in Great Leiyin Temple, and because Tathagata had accidentally pushed her, she had stung Tathagata once with her scorpion tail. The Daoma Poison on her tail had left even Tathagata in pain too unbearable to endure.

The Buddhist Sect had always been famed for its golden bodies. As the ancestor of ten thousand Buddhas, one could imagine how powerful Tathagata's golden body was, yet he had actually had a Buddha-level golden body broken by a single scorpion.

If even Tathagata had been like that, Monkey's Daluo Golden Body was far more lacking, and in the end he could only invite reinforcements.

"Right..."

Lu Chuan suddenly remembered that many years ago, Tathagata had once sent Kasyapa and Jin Chanzi to hunt down a Scorpion Spirit.

He knew that was the Scorpion Spirit from Journey to the West, so he had not gone personally. He had only told Wang Shan to take men and assist a little, but in the end, it seemed that Scorpion Spirit had still gotten away.
