Tang Xuanzang's Strength

He didn't understand why the human in front of him was so powerful, but the tiger didn't think much of it either.

Seeing Tang Xuanzang charging towards him, the tiger didn't back down and ran straight towards Tang Xuanzang as well.

Just as the tiger was about to reach Tang Xuanzang's side...

"Great Might Heavenly Dragon!"

Suddenly, Tang Xuanzang ripped off his cassock and threw it aside, revealing half of his upper body, and the image of a dragon appeared on his back.

Then he changed the hand Law Seals and struck the tiger.

"Roar roar roar!"

The tiger came head-on, and Tang Xuanzang had no choice but to take the blow.

It must be said that Tang Xuanzang was indeed in a lot of pain. The tiger couldn't help but cry out in pain, but it quickly suppressed the pain and launched another attack on Tang Xuanzang.

"Daluo Dharma Incantation!"

Seeing that the tiger did not retreat and pounced again, Tang Xuanzang had no choice but to launch his own attack.

This season's power was even stronger than the previous season's; it instantly knocked the attacking tiger to the ground, then rolled around until it crashed into a large tree and came to a stop.

When the tiger stopped, he was already dizzy. It was unclear whether he was dizzy from somersaulting in the air, from rolling around on the ground, or from hitting a tree.

"Now that the tiger has been knocked unconscious by Master, we should be able to leave, right?"

This is what Sun Wukong, who was watching from the sidelines, thought to himself. Tang Xuanzang's performance just now made his eyes widen. He really didn't expect that his cheap master would be able to use Law Technique.

Moreover, he used his Law Technique with surprising skill and ease. He quickly completed the first Method Formula and unleashed it before the tiger could pounce on him, driving it away.

The second Method Formula that followed knocked the tiger unconscious.

However, just as Sun Wukong spoke up, wanting Tang Xuanzang to leave quickly and continue his journey, his actions took him by surprise.

Then Tang Xuanzang cast a third Method Formula, clearly intending to strike the tiger, but the tiger was already unconscious. Sun Wukong didn't understand why Tang Xuanzang was continuing to attack.

However, he did not ask any questions. Tang Xuanzang must have had his reasons for doing so. It would not be too late to ask him after Tang Xuanzang had finished everything.

"World-Honored One Dizang!"

With a loud shout, Tang Xuanzang transformed into a tiger lying unconscious on the ground and unleashed his attack.

Just when Sun Wukong thought that Tang Xuanzang would leave after this attack, Tang Xuanzang launched another attack on the tiger.

"The Prajna All Buddhas!"

"Boya Bama Hong!"

Although Tang Xuanzang's five attacks were insignificant in Sun Wukong's eyes, they still managed to kill the tiger.

"Wukong, go check that tiger to see if it's really dead. If it is, turn it over and skin it. If it's not dead, give it another cut and skin it."

After Tang Xuanzang finished using the weapon, he was clearly exhausted and collapsed to the ground, weakly giving instructions to Sun Wukong.

Although Sun Wukong was filled with doubts at this moment, he refrained from asking and instead checked whether the tiger was alive or dead, as instructed by Tang Xuanzang.

Sun Wukong went up and checked the tiger's breath and heartbeat, confirming that the tiger was dead.

They used Law Technique to skin the tiger, then burned the remaining flesh and blood to ashes, and finally buried the tiger bones, reduced to powder, under a tree.

"Master, that tiger is dead. I've skinned it for you as you requested. What do you need this tiger skin for, Master?"

"Besides, Master, didn't you say that we monks should be compassionate and not commit murder?"

"Why did you knock the tiger unconscious and then kill it?"

After Sun Wukong brought the tiger skin back to Tang Xuanzang, he still couldn't help but ask the question that had been on his mind.

"My original intention was to knock this tiger unconscious and let it go, but I saw that there was human clothing left in its mouth."

"If I don't commit the sin of killing him and instead kill him, he might still harm others in the future."

"To ensure he won't harm anyone again, I, as his master, had no choice but to take his life."

"I asked you to peel off his tiger skin just to make use of it, Wukong. Look at you, you still don't have any decent clothes, and my clothes are a bit too small. You'll look ridiculous in them. That's why I can't give them to you."

"So, the reason I had you peel off his tiger skin was to make you a set of clothes."

Without further ado, Tang Xuanzang directly answered Sun Wukong's questions.

"I see. I didn't expect you to care about me so much, Master. Thank you so much."

Sun Wukong was immediately moved by Tang Xuanzang's words, because he had not felt any care from others for hundreds of years.

"Alright, let's not dwell on this between master and disciple. Let's hurry on our way."

"While we're at it, let's see if there's a house up ahead. We can ask them to borrow a needle and thread, and the craftsman can use this tiger skin to mend it and make you a nicer outfit."

When Tang Xuanzang saw Sun Wukong's appearance, he smiled and said something. Then he took the tiger skin from Sun Wukong's hand, put it in his luggage, and continued westward with Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong and Tang Xuanzang were lucky; they came across a family not long after they started walking.

"Master, I'll go knock on the door and borrow some needles and thread from you."

After Sun Wukong saw the house, he turned to Tang Xuanzang and said...

"Wukong, I should go instead. You'll scare that family looking like that."

Tang Xuanzang quickly called out to Sun Wukong, fearing that Sun Wukong's appearance might frighten the family.

Sun Wukong didn't argue with Tang Xuanzang. He simply stopped and told Tang Xuanzang to ride forward and knock on the door of that house.

Because he knew he was a monster, and mortals are generally very afraid of monsters.

Is anyone home?

After Tang Xuanzang reached the door, he gently knocked on the door knocker twice to ask if anyone was home.

"Here it comes! Who is it?"

Then the voice of the homeowner could be heard coming from inside the house.

"Is there anything I can help you with?"

When the homeowner opened the door and saw Tang Xuanzang, he realized he wasn't one of the people he knew and asked with some confusion.

"This humble monk is a Buddhist monk from the Great Tang of the Eastern Lands, on a pilgrimage to obtain Buddhist scriptures. Please refrain from asking questions and keep your mouth shut."
