Chapter 611: Chapter 612 Substitute (9th update!) Chapter 611: Chapter 612 Substitute (9th update!) “Congratulations, Buddha, for breaking through to the Slaying Three Corpses rit Saint so quickly. I am truly envious!”
A voice tinged with a hint of jealousy wafted in from outside the Great Thunder Sound Temple’s Treasure Hall. Ran Deng Buddha entered the hall step by step, creating lotuses with each step, and ca before Tathagata Buddha. Gazing at the three corpse shadows above Tathagata Buddha’s head, his eyes filled with admiration.
Both had been in seclusion for five hundred years. Tathagata Buddha had ascended from the peak of Slaying One Corpse rit Saint to Slaying Three Corpses rit Saint, whereas Ran Deng was still at the point of Slaying One Corpse rit Saint, albeit at the peak realm of that status.
“Ran Deng Buddha, how is the investigation I tasked you with progressing?”
Tathagata Buddha did not respond to Ran Deng Buddha’s words and rely glanced at him indifferently before asking directly. Now that he was a Slaying Three Corpses rit Saint, Ran Deng, although also a Heavenly Dao Saint, was no match for him. Even if he used the power of the Twenty-Four Heavens, he could easily be defeated, which made his tone less courteous.
Ran Deng Buddha noted the change in Tathagata Buddha’s tone and frowned slightly in displeasure, but he restrained himself from reacting and took a deep breath before reporting, “It’s clear now. The relationship between Yuan Hong and Sun Wukong is indeed unusual. Various signs suggest that they have so sort of agreent!”
“What kind of signs are those?”
Tathagata Buddha pressed.
“Many!”
Ran Deng Buddha said, “Wuzhuang Temple on Mount Longevity is one example. Yuan Hong sought Sun Wukong’s help to order Guanyin to save the ginseng fruit trees, and Sun Wukong agreed without any conditions. Later, when Golden Cicada Child was kidnapped by the people of the Demon Race, it was Sun Wukong who followed Yuan Hong to rescue the Golden Cicada Child. When they were at the Flat Top Mountain, Sun Wukong once again helped Yuan Hong under the guise of passing by, eliminating three demon spies and saving Golden Cicada Child.”
“Indeed, a thankless wretch!”
Tathagata Buddha sneered coldly, a glint of cold light flashing in his eyes, “I gave you an opportunity, but since you are as stubbornly foolish as that demon monkey, you can’t bla !”
With a flash, Tathagata Buddha exited the Treasure Hall and entered a side hall that led to the Sukhavati Realm. He cast a Buddha Seal that enlarged a spatial node into a walkable passage and stepped into it, followed closely by Ran Deng Buddha.
In the Sukhavati Realm, Tathagata Buddha stopped above a valley, and a hint of surprise flickered in Ran Deng Buddha’s eyes. “Buddha, is there sothing in this valley?”
“You’ll know if you look carefully,” Tathagata Buddha said with a mysterious smile without answering Ran Deng Buddha’s question. So curiosity spurred Ran Deng Buddha to release his Divine Sense and scan the valley, causing his eyes to widen in shock. “Yuan, Yuan Hong?”
“He is not Yuan Hong!”
Tathagata Buddha shook his head. “He is a Through-Arm Ape Monkey cultivated by myself, nad Yuan Zhen. However, before long, he will beco Yuan Hong!”
“You an to say…”
Ran Deng Buddha’s eyes widened suddenly, as he guessed Tathagata Buddha’s intention. Tathagata Buddha intended to use this Yuan Zhen to replace Yuan Hong!
With exactly the sa appearance, the sa cultivation, and even the sa iron staff as a weapon, even their auras were indistinguishably similar!
Had it not been for Tathagata Buddha revealing his na, Ran Deng Buddha could not have distinguished any difference between him and Yuan Hong!
Even he couldn’t see through it, let alone anyone else!
It seed that Tathagata Buddha had planned this long ago, for it was impossible to create a double in such a short ti who not only looked like Yuan Hong but whose aura and even weapon movents were identical!
Ran Deng Buddha suddenly felt a chill in his heart and was secretly glad that he was on the sa side as Tathagata Buddha, for being sched against by him would be a truly terrifying matter!
“Humph! Wukong thinks that by bribing Yuan Hong, he can interfere in the scripture-seeking rit. He underestimates too much! This ti, I shall use his plan against him and replace that Yuan Hong to see what tricks Wukong still has up his sleeve!”
A cold light flashed in Tathagata Buddha’s eyes as he looked down at Yuan Zhen, the Through-Arm Ape Monkey, who was rigorously cultivating in the valley below, and he chuckled coldly.
What Tathagata Buddha did not know was that Wukong had not only won over Yuan Hong, but he had also brought Jiang Liu’er, White Dragon Ao Lie, Zhu Bajie, and Sandy Monk into the Flower-Fruit Mountain Demon Cult. It was just that none of them had shown signs like Yuan Hong that Ran Deng Buddha could detect.
…
Heavenly Court, in the Miro Palace of the Jade Pure Sky.
“Hao Tian, are you really sure about this? This is a Demonic Path Technique. Once you start cultivating it, there’s no turning back! If anyone discovers you have cultivated a Demon Race technique, you might very well lose your position as Lord of the Heavenly Court!”
In Primordial Heavenly Venerate’s left hand floated a black sphere, twinkling with specks of black light, as he solemnly warned the Jade Emperor sitting opposite him.
“I have thought it through!” The Jade Emperor responded, his eyes betraying a struggle which was soon replaced by determination. “Fairy Chang’er has already been rescued by that Demon Monkey Wukong. My last chance to refine a rit Saint Body is gone! Without being able to cultivate a successful Sacred Body, I will never be able to Prove the Tao and Beco a Saint. What use is being the Lord of the Heavenly Court then? Power is what matters most!”
“If cultivating a Demon Race technique allows to attain sainthood, then who would dare to look down on then? I’ll make that Demon Monkey pay for his actions! I will personally annihilate Flower-Fruit Mountain to quell the hatred in my heart!”
“Well, since you’ve made up your mind, I won’t try to dissuade you further. Take it then, and reflect on it yourself. As for the consequences, it depends on your fate!”
A glint of sharpness flashed in Primordial Heavenly Venerate’s eyes as he tossed the black sphere to the Jade Emperor. The sphere traced an arc before securely landing in the Jade Emperor’s hands. The next mont, it shattered, releasing wisps of dark demonic Qi that entered the Jade Emperor through his orifices, and a profound Demonic Magic Decree appeared in his mind.
“Hah!”
The Jade Emperor took a deep breath, opened his eyes, thanked Primordial Heavenly Venerate with a bow, and then turned and left the Miro Palace.
“A rit Saint Body achieved through cultivation of Demon Race techniques, huh? Perhaps ‘rit Demon Body’ would be a more apt na! The Three Realms will soon be engulfed in turmoil!”
The low muttering of Primordial Heavenly Venerate echoed within the Miro Palace, lingering for a long ti…
…
At the edge of the Heavenly Abyss in Western Cattle Gift State, Wukong was ticulously searching for the entrance to the Chaos Vortex.
Wukong had been here for three days now, continuously searching for the entrance to the Chaos Vortex as taught by Puti Patriarch, yet he had found nothing.
