Chapter 508 Five Hundred Years Later

The persuasion failed, but Guanyin was not discouraged and left.

After all, it was the first time, and there was still plenty of time for Sun Wukong to think about it.

After a few years, Guanyin came to Huaguo Mountain again to persuade Sun Wukong. As before, Sun Wukong still sneered at Guanyin.

Seeing this, Guanyin left.

Not long after, people from the West came again.

However, this time it was not Guanyin, but others.

They brought copper and iron water and forced Sun Wukong's clone to eat it. After feeding, they left without saying a word.

Seeing this, Sun Wukong, who was far away in the sky, showed a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.

However, Sun Wukong finally held back and did not go out, and continued to practice in seclusion.

In this way, every once in a while, people from the Buddhist sect came to feed Sun Wukong's clone with copper and iron water, and then it was visible to the naked eye that Sun Wukong's clone's strength was declining.

After only a dozen years, he was demoted from the peak of Taiyi Jinxian to the late stage of Taiyi Jinxian.

Not long after, the Yaochi Conference of the Heavenly Palace was officially held. It was also at this time that Marshal Tianpeng and General Juanlian were demoted to the mortal world, and the Journey to the West began.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is five hundred years later.

In the southern part of Zhanbuzhou, in the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

A baby was abandoned and drifted to the foot of Jinshan Temple. He was later rescued by the elder Fa Ming of Jinshan Temple and was given a nickname, Jiang Liuer.

When Jiang Liuer came of age, he became a monk in Jinshan Temple and was named Xuanzang and Sanzang.

After that, the Dragon King of Jinghe was killed, Li Shimin's soul traveled to the underworld, and then the water and land conference was held.

It was also from this moment that Xuanzang was chosen by Guanyin as a pilgrim to obtain scriptures, and he became sworn brothers with Li Shimin, and was given the national surname, named Tang Monk, also known as Tang Xuanzang and Tang Sanzang.

Thus, the Journey to the West was officially opened.

At the moment when Tang Seng set out on the journey to obtain Buddhist scriptures, at this moment, Guanyin once again descended here in the Five Elements Mountain.

"Wukong!"

Guanyin called Sun Wukong.

But Sun Wukong's reaction was the same as before, he still ignored Guanyin and left her aside.

Seeing this, Guanyin was also tired.

It was thought that Sun Wukong would be more restrained after being pressed under the Five Elements Mountain for five hundred years, and he would yearn for freedom and agree to his Buddhist request.

Unexpectedly, Sun Wukong never changed, which gave Guanyin a headache.

If Sun Wukong was still like this when Tang Seng resisted the Five Elements Mountain, Guanyin would have to take compulsory measures.

In short, there is absolutely no room for error in the Journey to the West.

Sun Wukong ignored her, but there are some things that Guanyin must say.

"Wukong! I'll ask you again, do you agree to escort the pilgrims to the Lingshan Mountain in the West to worship Buddha and seek scriptures? If you are willing, I will release you. If you still insist on not getting over it, I will disperse your cultivation and send you to the underworld to reincarnate."

Guanyin's words were somewhat threatening.

She was trying to persuade Sun Wukong. If Sun Wukong still insisted on not getting over it, he would only end up dead.

After that, Guanyin quietly waited for Sun Wukong's reply, but it seemed that she would not be successful. Guanyin had figured out the monkey's character over the past few hundred years.

Just when Guanyin was about to give up, suddenly, Sun Wukong's clone spoke.

"It's not impossible if you want me to go to get scriptures."

"Hmm?"

Hearing this, Guanyin thought she had heard it wrong. This monkey head actually spoke for the first time, and judging from the words, the monkey head seemed to agree.

"What are your conditions?" Guanyin asked hurriedly. She knew that Sun Wukong wanted to negotiate with her.

After Guanyin finished speaking, she heard him say, "I want you to promise me two things."

"What are those two things?"

"The first thing is that I am willing to escort him to the West to obtain the scriptures, but I will not become his disciple." Sun Wukong's clone said, wanting him, a Daluo Jinxian, to worship a mortal, even if this mortal was once a disciple of Tathagata, so what, is he worthy?

Hearing this, Guanyin was silent, Sun Wukong did not become his disciple, this was not something she could decide.

"I can't make the decision on this matter, I need to ask Tathagata, the Buddha. You can tell me the second thing together, and I will tell you the Buddha's decision." Guanyin said, she did not have the power to decide, but Tathagata did.

Sun Wukong's clone did not deliberately make things difficult for Guanyin, and then told the second thing.

"The second thing is very simple, you need to let me talk to the pilgrim alone, don't worry, I will not harm his life."

"Yes!"

After listening to Sun Wukong's second request, Guanyin nodded.

Indeed, compared to the first request, the second request was much simpler, and Guanyin could agree to it.

She was not afraid that Sun Wukong would kill Tang Seng.

The reason was simple. Tang Seng had been chosen as the man of destiny to obtain the scriptures, and he had been reincarnated so many times. He was already the son of destiny in the Southern Continent. Although he was not as lucky as Sun Wukong, he was still a son of destiny. It was impossible to hurt him.

But just in case, Guanyin did not agree immediately. It was better to report to Tathagata and let Tathagata decide.

"Wukong, wait a moment. I will reply to you after I go back to report."

After saying that, Guanyin did not stay in Wuxing Mountain and returned to Lingshan.

After Guanyin left, Sun Wukong, who was far away in the sky, opened his eyes at this moment.

After five hundred years of intensive practice, he has now reached the late stage of Daluo Jinxian, and is still one step away from the peak of Daluo Jinxian.

With such strength, Sun Wukong is still a little insufficient to fight against the top powers such as Jade Emperor and Tathagata.

But Sun Wukong felt no pressure to deal with people like Guanyin.

"Senior, that bald donkey is coming soon." Sun Wukong said to Ye Xingchen.

"Just follow the plan!"

Ye Xingchen replied to Sun Wukong calmly.

Although Ye Xingchen's words were very calm, in fact, he was already very excited.

After planning for so long, there will finally be gains.

Western Heaven, Lingshan.

Not long after, Guanyin returned to Lingshan to meet Tathagata, and told Tathagata the conditions proposed by Sun Wukong.

Tathagata was silent for a moment after learning about it, and then he said to Guanyin: "Just do it according to his wishes! Remember, pay more attention to the movements of this monkey in secret."

In the end, Tathagata agreed.

There was no way, they had no better choice.

If there was, would they still have to work hard to calculate Sun Wukong?

If Sun Wukong did not become a disciple, he would only lose a little merit.

It's okay if it's less, it's not like he won't get anything at all.

In addition, during the five hundred years, they fed Sun Wukong with copper and iron every once in a while. Sun Wukong's current cultivation level has dropped from the peak of Taiyi Jinxian to the early stage of Jinxian.

The strength of the early stage of Jinxian is basically no threat to them.

"Yes! Buddha!"

After getting the consent of Tathagata, Guanyin set out for Wuxing Mountain again and informed Sun Wukong of the result.

"Wukong, my Buddha has agreed to your request. Remember, don't let any trouble happen along the way!"

Guanyin was afraid that Sun Wukong would still be stubborn, so she gave him the last warning.

After that, Guanyin left again. She didn't need to stay here with Sun Wukong to wait for Tang Seng to arrive.

After Tang Seng arrived at Wuxing Mountain, Sun Wukong would naturally come out. These things were all planned in advance.
