Chapter 280: Blackwind
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
One had to know that the White Bone Spirit was just an ordinary little demon on the Journey to the West.
Yet here it was, with a cultivation base at the 1st Nebula of the Heavenly Venerate realm. Although it was easy for one to kill it, one could also see that the universes related to the Journey to the West were not weak.
[As you were not clear about the current timeline, you did not go directly to the White Bone Spirit.
[Although your mission was to help the White Bone Spirit successfully eat Tang Sanzang’s flesh, the first thing you had to do was to see where the four of them had gone.
[Your figure disappeared in an instant and appeared in the nearest city.]
…
[On the fifth day, you finally confirmed the time after your many inquiries. The Monkey King was still suppressed at the foot of Mount Five Elements. Li Shimin had just released the news that he wanted to invite Tang Xuanzang to hold a land-and-water meeting.
[You calculated carefully. Although time was still a little tight, it would take more than a year to go from when Guanyin kissed Tang Sanzang to when he took in three disciples and walked to the White Tiger Ridge.
[More than a year was enough for you to make a lot of preparations.
[You first flew all the way to Mount Five Elements and saw Sun Wukong, who was being held at the foot with a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks. You had a lot of feelings for this monkey.
[You loved him when you were young, and you sympathized with him when you grew up. As you grew stronger, you felt pity for this monkey.
[The unrivaled demon monkey had become an obedient and biting dog under the Buddha’s scheme.
[After confirming that Sun Wukong’s cultivation base was at the 4th Protostar of the Heavenly Lord realm. You had a general understanding of the cultivation level of the entire world.
[With Sun Wukong as the standard, the demons on the Journey to the West should generally be at the Heavenly Venerate realm, which was equivalent to the Heaven Immortals of this world.
[And those demons who were about the same level as Sun Wukong were roughly at the bottom level of the Heavenly Lord realm.
[According to the principle of the Intermediate World, the strongest cultivator was only at the peak of the Heavenly Lord realm.
[You speculated that both the Heavenly Court and the Buddhist sect should have a powerhouse at the peak of the Heavenly Lord realm or even more than one.
[You could not help but think to yourself, ‘His battle strength seems to be a little high. Let’s not talk about other things. Based on his cultivation level, I might not even be able to defeat the Guanyin of this world.’
[One had to know that to eat Tang Sanzang, it would be relatively easy if you only wanted to finish off his three disciples.
[However, you knew that Tang Sanzang was protected by 12 constellations, 28 Mansions, 4 Valences, and a group of divine priests.
[Although almost all of these immortals had the cultivation base of a Heavenly Venerate, once they joined forces, their battle prowess would not be any weaker than Sun Wukong and the others.
[Moreover, if they wanted to eat Tang Sanzang’s flesh, they would undoubtedly have to face the Buddhist sect and the Heavenly Court.
[The Heavenly Court was easy to deal with. If they were not on the same side, they might not necessarily use their full strength.
[However, the Buddhist sect was different. The life and death of Tang Sanzang were related to the prosperity of the Buddhist sect.
[When the time came to eat Tang Sanzang, Buddha Tathagata would probably come personally.
[With his style of traveling to the west, Buddha Tathagata must be one of the most powerful people in the world.
“Eh, it’s difficult, it’s difficult…”
[After sighing twice, you looked at the monkey scratching its head and left Mount Five Elements.]
…
[On the ninth day, a new king appeared at Mount Three Immortals beside the White Tiger Ridge, which was deserted for a while.
[Mount Three Immortals was originally a place where a tiger spirit, a deer spirit, and a sheep spirit resided.
[However, these three demons were not on good terms with Lady White Bones of the White Tiger Ridge, and conflicts often broke out.
[Logically speaking, Lady White Bones could not defeat these three demons. However, Lady White Bones possessed considerable intelligence among the demons and managed to rope in many of the demons nearby.
[This caused the two sides to remain in a stalemate.
[After that, the three demons somehow obtained the authentic cultivation method of the Celestial Sect of Wonders. They actually let these demons go and insisted on going to a human city to open a Daoist temple.
[Just like that, the famous Mount Three Immortals declined.
[Although some demons wanted to enter Mount Three Immortals, Lady White Bones would find them not long after they entered the mountain. They would either kill them or chase them away. As a result, although Mount Three Immortals was considered a blessed land, it had never had a master.
[After you found out the story behind Mount Three Immortals, you immediately had an idea.
[Since you wanted to eat Tang Sanzang’s flesh with the White Bone Spirit, you naturally had to have the identity of a demon.
[The cave abode on Mount Three Immortals could be the key point for you to come into contact with the White Bone Spirit.
[A new king had come to Mount Three Immortals. He had changed the name of Mount Three Immortals to the Blackwind Cave. The king called himself Blackwind and was recruiting troops.
[This piece of news quickly spread in the vicinity.
[For a time, many lesser demons came to seek refuge with you.
[Speaking of which, the great demons of this world were living quite comfortably. However, the lesser demons were living extremely miserable lives.
[If they couldn’t find a good king, they wouldn’t even be able to solve the simple problem of food and clothing.
[You killed a few famous demons in the vicinity and gained a great reputation among the lesser demons.]
…
[On the 13th day, the number of lesser demons under you increased from a dozen to a few hundred in just a few days. The demonic aura in the entire Blackwind Cave is extremely dense. Anyone who passed by could be judged. There must be a great demon here.
[On this day, you were waiting for a rabbit in the cave. As expected, the lesser demon came to report.
[The leader of the lesser demons, the demon you named Smart Ghost, stuttered as he reported, “Y-Your Majesty, there’s a beautiful woman outside asking to see you. She, she said that she’s our neighbor and wants to come and meet Your Majesty…”
[Your eyes immediately lit up. The rabbit you had been waiting for a few days finally ran into you.
“Bring that beautiful woman in for this king…”
[You pretended to be very wild as you shouted, ensuring that the White Bone Spirit outside could hear you clearly.
[As expected, when the White Bone Spirit outside heard your voice, there was a hint of playfulness in her eyes.
[The White Bone Spirit was best at playing with one’s heart. Back then, only the three highly intelligent demons could compete with her in arm wrestling.
[After that, many demons came to Mount Three Immortals. Among them, there was no lack of those who were stronger than the White Bone Spirit.
[However, under the White Bone Spirit’s calculations, none of them had a good ending.
[The White Tiger Ridge she was at was too close to Mount Three Immortals. How could she allow others to sleep soundly in her bed?
[The White Bone Spirit would never allow such a thing to happen.
[After a short while, a large group of lesser demons rushed out. Then, they brought the White Bone Spirit into the Blackwind Cave.
[You sat on the spacious chair at the top of the cave, quietly watching the White Bone Spirit walk in.
[You were still very curious about the White Bone Spirit. There were also many beautiful women among the various versions of the White Bone Spirit.]
