Journey to the West: Tang Monk Conquers Everything-Chapter 561: A TV?

Bodhisattva Guanyin, her face a picture of serenity.

Or perhaps, to describe it more accurately, it was more like her face was frozen...

Initially, she had spoken those words intending to gain a favor from Xuanzang.

Unexpectedly, the outcome turned out like this, with Xuanzang actually wanting to enter the Illusionary Demon Cave to atone for his sins!?

Although Xuanzang's words took Bodhisattva Guanyin completely by surprise, there was no denying that what he said was quite soothing to hear.

What did he say? He was unwilling to trouble her, and that was why he was willing to endure the trials of the Illusionary Demon Cave.

Moreover, it was also to face the Arhats of the Great Thunder Monastery openly in the future.

Such a disposition indeed made it hard for one to be angry with him.

"Bodhisattva, if you find it difficult, I am willing to personally go to the Great Thunder Monastery, meet the Buddha, and request his blessing," Xuanzang said, seeing Bodhisattva Guanyin's frozen expression and not speaking for a long time, his head slightly bowed in a manner that showed his readiness to admit his error.

"No!"

Hearing Jiang Liu's words, Bodhisattva Guanyin snapped back to reality and immediately rejected the suggestion outright.

Although she found Xuanzang quite admirable and his behavior faultless, one thing about him was problematic: he kept wanting her to go to the Great Thunder Monastery to notify the Buddha, and on the next visit, to have the Buddha bring the Scriptures along.

Now, having only passed twenty-five of the eighty-one tribulations, to send Jiang Liu to the Great Thunder Monastery now? What was that supposed to mean?

If he went there, would he directly say to the Buddha, "Buddha, when the disciple returns this time, why not bring the True Scriptures of Tripitaka along as well?"

Upon reflecting, it seemed quite possible that Xuanzang would indeed say something like that.

Therefore, before he goes through the ninety-nine tribulations, he absolutely must not reach Spirit Mountain prematurely.

"Here's what we'll do, I'll inquire with the Buddha for you..."

Not daring to let Jiang Liu go to Spirit Mountain, but also finding it difficult to refuse his request outright, Bodhisattva Guanyin pondered for a moment before speaking up.

As her words fell, Bodhisattva Guanyin murmured to herself, and her Divine Sense directly flew out towards Spirit Mountain in Western Heaven.

Jiang Liu didn't interrupt Bodhisattva Guanyin's contemplation and waited quietly by the side, his heart filled with some anticipation.

The Illusionary Demon Cave? Demon Creatures that are both real and illusory? Isn't this just the perfect instance?

Moreover, to stay for a year!?

Not knowing would have been one thing, but now that he knew, he had to strive for it no matter what!

It was also fortunate that Guanyin wasn't the type who did good deeds anonymously. She had even mentioned it in front of him to gain a favor.

Otherwise, he wouldn't even know about such an opportunity!

"Master, why do you want to enter that Illusionary Demon Cave?"

As Bodhisattva Guanyin's Divine Sense flew out to negotiate with the Tathagata, in the interface of the social system, Sun Wukong asked Jiang Liu.

"Don't you know my situation? The Illusionary Demon Cave allows me to cultivate, and moreover, I can delay there for a year, isn't that delightful!?" Hearing Sun Wukong's inquiry, Jiang Liu explained.

"Ah? Master's words make sense indeed!" Hearing this explanation from Jiang Liu, Sun Wukong clearly understood as well.

Then, after a while, he sent another message to Jiang Liu.

"Being confined in the Illusionary Demon Cave for a year for killing a Tiger Conquering Arhat? In that case, Master, should we kill a few more Arhats, or even a Bodhisattva!?"

"Hmm, not bad, Wukong, your suggestion is good..." Sun Wukong's proposal indeed resonated deeply with Jiang Liu.

Now that he had already reached the realm of a Heavenly Immortal, naturally, he should take this opportunity to kill a few more among the Immortals and Buddhas.

First, to level up by fighting monsters, and second, to weaken the power of the Immortals and Buddhas, reducing the pressure when they eventually confront them openly.

"Amitabha..."

Just as Jiang Liu was idly chatting with Sun Wukong on the social system interface, soon, Bodhisattva Guanyin's Divine Sense returned, and she looked at Jiang Liu and said, "The Buddha has issued a decree since you, Xuanzang, are so self-aware, then according to your words, you may enter the Illusionary Demon Cave to reflect upon your actions!"

"But..."

Before Jiang Liu could rejoice, Bodhisattva Guanyin changed her tone and continued, "The Tathagata has decreed since your admission of guilt is sincere, your punishment will be lightened, turning one year to six months!"

"Er, Bodhisattva, I don't want a lighter sentence. I feel my sins are serious, and I should be confined in the Illusionary Demon Cave for a hundred and eighty years!" Hearing Bodhisattva Guanyin's words, Jiang Liu quickly spoke up.

"Enough, Xuanzang, stop talking nonsense, let's go..." However, Bodhisattva Guanyin did not give Jiang Liu any more chance to haggle, simply waving her hand and speaking.

"Ah, this is too difficult, what's this with a year turning into half a year..."

Seeing that Bodhisattva Guanyin's mind was made up, obviously not open for discussion, Jiang Liu sighed helplessly in his heart.

"Bodhisattva, wait, if Master is going to reflect on his past, what about us?" Seeing that Bodhisattva Guanyin was about to take Jiang Liu to the Illusionary Demon Cave, Sun Wukong spoke up.

"You others wait here for half a year, then after half a year, continue on your Journey to the West..." Hearing Sun Wukong's words, Bodhisattva Guanyin thought for a moment and then said.

After giving instructions, Bodhisattva Guanyin took Xuanzang and directly vanished into the air.

"Alright, Wukong, I'm giving you all half a year's vacation, you can each go your own way!"

Under the guidance of Bodhisattva Guanyin, heading towards the so-called Illusionary Demon Cave, at the same time, Jiang Liu sent a message to Sun Wukong and the others in the character panel.

"Okay, Master, we got it!" Following the arrival of Jiang Liu's message, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, Sha Wujing, and White Dragon Horse all replied, seeming to be in good spirits.

"My brothers, Master has given us half a year's vacation. I want to go back to the Western Sea Dragon Palace to visit and also check on my daughter at the Flame Cloud Entertainment City..." the White Dragon Horse was the first to speak.

"Hehehe, I, Old Pig, should also take a stroll!" With a half-year vacation, Zhu Bajie's eyes lit up, and he thought of Zhuzhu.

After he had died, Master had resurrected him, and he had hidden Zhuzhu. Now, with a half-year vacation, it was time to find her and see if they could have another child, flipping through the phoenix feathers.

"I, Old Sun? Should also stay in Flower Fruit Mountain for a while, the kids will definitely be happy, but, I also need to make time to visit the Moon Palace to see Zixia..." Sun Wukong said after some thought.

"I, I'll just stay here and wait for Master to return!" However, at the end, Sha Wujing thought about it and shook his head.

With half a year's vacation, Sha Wujing was quite happy. However, seeing everyone else had a place to go, Sha Wujing thought about it and realized he actually had nowhere to go.

Feeling somewhat disheartened, Sha Wujing decided to stay and wait for the half-year to pass.

After the four brothers of Sun Wukong had each announced their destinations, they each took their leave.

Only Sha Wujing was left alone, quietly waiting for the half-year to pass.

...

As for the whereabouts of his disciples, Jiang Liu did not mind. At this time, all of Jiang Liu's thoughts were on the Illusionary Demon Cave, somewhat expectant.

What would be the situation like inside the Illusionary Demon Cave? Fighting monsters and leveling up for half a year, his cultivation level certainly would improve a lot, right?

To Jiang Liu at this moment, the Illusionary Demon Cave was a good instance indeed.

Although the instance of the Map of Mountains and Rivers was good, for Jiang Liu, driven by the skills of Sun Wukong, the value of the Map of Mountains and Rivers instance was becoming increasingly lesser...

Under the guidance of Bodhisattva Guanyin, Jiang Liu didn't know where he had arrived, only knowing that he was traveling northward and had probably come to the territory of North Julu State.

Bodhisattva Guanyin brought Jiang Liu to the front of an ancient cave.

"Bodhisattva, won't you reconsider? I want to stay inside for a hundred and eighty years, or at least three to five years if nothing else..." Following next to Bodhisattva Guanyin, Jiang Liu still appeared undeterred, bargaining.

"Xuanzang, trust me, once you go in, you'll understand how terrifying it is inside. You wouldn't last even three to five days, let alone three to five years!" Seeing Jiang Liu's demeanor, Bodhisattva Guanyin shook her head.

In Guanyin's view, Xuanzang was just too young and had oversimplified the Illusionary Demon Cave...

"No, Bodhisattva, you underestimate me!" Jiang Liu said, shaking his head, hearing Bodhisattva Guanyin's words.

An instance that could be infinitely repelled, fighting monsters to level up and become stronger, and even legitimately stalling for time, what couldn't he endure?

He could even stay alone until he reached level 100 before coming out.

"Enough, no more nonsense. Go inside..." Shaking her head, Bodhisattva Guanyin, not intending to explain too much, said to Jiang Liu.

"Sigh..."

Letting out a long sigh in his heart, seeing that Bodhisattva Guanyin was unwilling to relent, Jiang Liu didn't pursue the matter further and walked directly towards the Illusionary Demon Cave.

At first glance, the Illusionary Demon Cave looked sinister, and at the entrance, the words "Illusionary Demon Cave" were written in ancient characters.

For some reason, looking at the Illusionary Demon Cave, Jiang Liu felt somewhat eerie inside.

"There's nothing to be afraid of, an instance that could be infinitely repelled, I should be happy about it!"

Suppressing the eerie feeling in his heart, Jiang Liu comforted himself in a low voice and then took steps to enter.

From outside, the Illusionary Demon Cave appeared to be a pitch-black and sinister place, but upon entering, Jiang Liu felt a sudden brightness.

Then, after seeing the situation inside, Jiang Liu was dumbfounded.

The Illusionary Demon Cave actually housed an old black-and-white television set, on which countless specks of snow flickered.

"What's the situation?"

Jiang Liu was baffled, a television set appearing in the world of Journey to the West? Wasn't that a bit too out of context?

Before Jiang Liu had time to react to what was happening, suddenly, the picture on the TV jolted, showing a well, and a woman dressed in white, with long black hair, emerged from the well and then started walking closer.

Her hands grabbed the frame of the television and began to climb out...

Hiss!

Jiang Liu involuntarily drew a cold breath, feeling as though a bucket of ice water had been poured over him.

"Bodhisattva, save me!"

Outside the Illusionary Demon Cave, hearing Jiang Liu's terrified cries, Bodhisattva Guanyin's lips slightly raised.

Still thinking about staying for a hundred and eighty years? Looks like it's a slap in the face!
