Chapter 16: The Nine Layers Demon Pagoda, Lantern Festival
Walking down from Black Wind Mountain, Tang Sen walked briskly.
The smile on his face lingers.
This trip made a lot of money. This black bear was originally adopted by Guanyin Bodhisattva as the guardian of the mountain. It has great magical powers and is even weaker than Wukong.
As for the matter of Guanyin Temple and the Taoist priest harming living beings, Tang Sen has already seen through it.
In this world of Journey to the West where demons are rampant and the strong are respected, the human race is weak and naturally they are bullied. After seeing them a lot, they become accustomed to them. When they encounter them, they naturally slay the demons.
[Ding, the system has detected that the disasters of Guanyin Temple and Black Wind Mountain have passed. Do you want to claim the reward? 】
[Warm reminder, the two disasters complement each other, you can choose whether to combine them into rewards. 】
Synthetic rewards? The system still has this function?
The combined reward must be stronger than a single reward!
Maybe?
Tang Sen looked hesitant, but finally chose the combined reward.
[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the innate spiritual treasure and the nine-layer demon tower.]
[The nine-layered demon tower can suppress demons, eliminate demons, and nurture demon spirits in just one thought.]
[The reward has been distributed, please check the host carefully.]
Tang Sen stared blankly at the dilapidated nine-layered pagoda that suddenly appeared in his hand.
Innate spiritual treasure? Playing so big?
I admit that I am a bit of a gambler.
But! I made the right bet!
Input the mana into the pagoda in your hand, leave the mark of the soul, and complete the recognition of the master.
The dust of the pagoda has fallen away, with nine layers and nine layers. Nine colors bloom in sequence, white, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple and black. The nine colors complement each other, which is very magical.
A faint coercion emerged, not heavy but very high, the kind of high level of life, like gods to mortals.
This sudden vision attracted the attention of the three people behind them, and they also felt this faint pressure.
Black Bear Spirit: This tower also glows, it’s so pretty.
Wukong had some knowledge, but not much. He only knew that this was a treasure, probably no worse than his own golden hoop.
Only Xiao Bailong was deeply shocked!
An innate spiritual treasure! Yes, it is definitely an innate spiritual treasure!
That kind of aura, that kind of supreme pressure.
You can't go wrong.
I had felt this kind of coercion in the dragon clan's treasure house. At that time, I asked my ancestors, what is this?
This is the foundation, my child, this is the innate spiritual treasure left by Master Zulong, the foundation of the entire dragon clan.
That's right, the innate spiritual treasure is enough to become a treasure passed down from generation to generation for a large family.
Later, Xiao Bailong figured out that there were only a few innate spiritual treasures in the entire dragon clan. There were countless innate spiritual treasures in the world. Every innate spiritual treasure that was born was in the hands of the powerful, but now most of them are hidden and not visible to the world.
.
On the surface, people with innate spiritual treasures are extremely powerful.
For example, the Haotian Mirror in the hand of the Jade Emperor, the mutton-fat jade pure bottle of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and the nine-grade golden lotus on which Tathagata Buddha sits.
How could an innate spiritual treasure suddenly appear in the master's hand? What if someone knew about it?
Just thinking about it made Xiao Bailong shudder.
Innate Spiritual Treasure is not like Tang Monk Meat. Although eating it can lead to immortality, anyone with some status knows what this "Tang Monk Meat" is.
On the contrary, this innate spiritual treasure is a treasure that even Daluo Jinxian is tempted by.
If people know about this journey to the west, it will be more than eighty-one! Although these people dare not offend Buddhism blatantly, they can do some small tricks behind the scenes, and it is impossible for Buddhism to offend so many magic powers at the same time.
A powerful immortal cannot be offended by public anger.
The pressure disappeared in a flash, and Tang Sen hurriedly put away the nine-layer demon tower.
Damn it, system, you didn't say you would make such a big fuss. If anyone saw it, you would really become "Tang Monk Meat"!
"Hey, this is a normal phenomenon when the innate spirit treasure recognizes its owner. In the future, you can control the magic weapon independently, and this situation will not happen again." The system that had not been seen for a long time suddenly appeared to reply, not the cold intelligence.
program.
"System, what have you been doing during this time? Why don't you see me all the time?" Tang Sen was very happy to see his old friend and quickly asked about his doubts.
Ever since I came out from the foot of Five Elements Mountain, the system has been diving without even a single bubble.
Seizing the opportunity this time, Tang Sen wanted to ask the reason.
"Me? I'm sleeping."
Tang Sen:???
You sleep for a long time.
"The power of heaven in the world of Journey to the West is very strong. I took you through it and you lost a lot of your origin. You need to fall into a deep sleep to slowly restore your origin. I will fall asleep again in a while. If you have anything to ask, ask quickly." The system finally put away the
Lazy tone, formal tone of answer.
When Tang Sen heard this, he remembered the clueless reminder from last time.
"System, last time you seemed to remind me to become stronger as soon as possible to change my original destiny. What exactly did you mean? Was my original destiny bad?" The tone was quite urgent.
"The secret must not be leaked. I can only say that measuring calamity is not as simple as you think, and it is not just about Journey to the West. In short, become stronger as soon as possible, strong enough to control your own destiny!" The tone of the system was extremely solemn.
Tang Sen thought thoughtfully, something is really wrong with this Journey to the West!
Let me just say, it’s all about calamity. Look at other people’s dragon and phoenix fights for hegemony, lich wars, and god-conferring wars. Which one of them doesn’t result in the sky shattering and the earth falling apart, with corpses everywhere?
And this journey to the west is just a monk walking for a while, taking two scriptures, and beating little monsters. The famous monsters with high abilities were sent by heaven or Buddhism to act. The total number of monsters killed was not even a hundred. This is not the case.
So fake!
If this is the measure of calamity? Who is afraid of this measure of calamity?
If Tang Sen remembers correctly, the Calamity Tribulation is also known as the Immortal Killing Tribulation. A quasi-sage will enter the Calming Tribulation. Unless he is the True Immortal of Fortune, he can keep himself safe.
As for the legendary immeasurable calamity, even the saints cannot escape it. The heaven and earth will return to nothingness, and all living beings will be annihilated!
Seeing that the system was about to escape again, Tang Sen quickly called to stop.
"System, the attractions haven't been checked in yet!"
"You should contact Xiao Ruo about this matter." After saying this, the system immediately escaped.
[Ding, it is detected that the host is at the tourist attraction of Journey to the West - Guanyin Temple. Do you want to check in? 】
Xiaoruo? Xiaowei?
"yes."
Although my mind was racing with random thoughts, I answered without any hesitation.
[Congratulations to the host for getting "Revolver"*1.]
Tang Sen:???Gone?
Guanyin Temple has it, but Heifeng Mountain doesn’t count?
Think about it carefully, Heifeng Mountain is just a barren mountain, what kind of scenic spot is it?
Look at this random name, you don't deserve it.
Holding the revolver in hand, Tang Sen couldn't put it down. Gun, this is a gun!
I had never touched a real gun in my previous life.
Although this is also a magic modified version, driven by mana and condensed into mana bullets, the effective range is only three hundred meters.
How do you describe this distance? It's tasteless, tasteless to eat, and a pity to throw away.
For monsters, three hundred meters can be reached in the blink of an eye, and the gun may be shot before it is even aimed.
But it doesn’t matter, being handsome is a lifelong thing, and this is a gun!
What man doesn't love it?
He quickly put it on his body, with an unbridled smile on his face.
"Hahahaha, hahahahaha." Finally he burst out laughing.
This trip made a lot of money!
Innate spiritual treasures, guns, and a thug in the Taiyi Sanxian realm.
How could I not let myself be ecstatic?
I really couldn't restrain my inner joy. I looked up at the sky and was about to roar.
I saw a full moon, shining its cool moonlight alone in the silent night sky.
Counting the time, I found that on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, it was the Lantern Festival. It had already been more than ten days since I left Chang'an.
I thought of my family members in my previous life, how lonely and sad they were, and what kind of blow my sudden departure would bring to my parents who were old and in poor health.
In an instant, the surge of joy quietly disappeared and was replaced by a faint sadness.
Being a stranger in a foreign land, I miss my family even more during festive seasons.
The little white dragon and the black bear spirit behind were noisy and noisy. No one was convinced by the other, and they kept shouting to compete.
The excitement is all theirs, and I own nothing.
Sun Wukong noticed that something was wrong with Tang Sen's mood, and hurriedly stepped forward, looking at him with worry on his face, but did not dare to ask.
Looking at Wukong who had a worried face in front of him but didn't dare to make a sound for fear of alarming him, Tang Sen smiled slightly.
I still have them!
He turned around and looked at Sun Wukong, the little white dragon and the black bear spirit not far away.
You are not alone.
As for my family, I have no choice but to pray that they are safe and live a long life. After I have the ability to travel through time, space and the universe, I can go back to apologize.
"Xiao Bai and Wukong went to find some thatch and trees, and Lao Hei went to collect some firewood. We won't leave tonight." Tang Sen calmed down and ordered.
Good times and beautiful scenery are rare, so how can we not cherish them?
What's the solution to your worries? Dukang is the only way to go with barbecue!
Lao Hei, yes, it’s that black bear spirit.
At first he strongly opposed it, but he couldn't overcome Tang Sen's persistence.
What should I do? I can’t change it, but I can’t change it, and I can’t fight it.
Waiting online, quite urgent.
In the end, he had no choice but to succumb to Tang Sen's lustful power and Wukong's golden cudgel, and accepted this name by default.
Watching the three of them walking away into the distance, Xiao Bai and Lao Hei were still pushing and shouting, and swearing at each other.
Tang Sen sat down on the spot, lit a bonfire, and thought about the way forward. This road to the west seemed not as simple as he originally thought.
And Lao Hei also has to enter the Nine-Level Demon Pagoda to practice. Taiyi Sanxian's cultivation seems to be pretty good now, but he won't be able to keep up in the future. He must make use of the innate spiritual treasures in his hands, otherwise it will be the same as nothing.
What a difference!
Also, Wukong's Golden Cudgel is a little behind. It is still an acquired merit treasure. He has to find a way to upgrade it. As for his cultivation level, he is not too worried. Now the Creation Pill is slowly making up for his lost origin and nourishing his spirit.
With the foundation, coupled with his innate heel and foot, and the evil talent, once the origin is completely repaired, the progress in the realm will be rapid.
Little White Dragon? This kid still needs some experience. When he matures a bit, he will have to arrange the Dragon Order.
Oops, so busy!
The flickering firelight illuminated Tang Sen's face, which was so serious and absorbed that he didn't even notice the return of the three people who had gone out.
When Tang Sen came back to his senses, he found that Wukong, Xiao Bailong and Lao Hei were all sitting around the campfire, watching him quietly.
Oops, could it be that he is handsome again? There is no way, he is naturally beautiful.
Tang Sentian thought shamelessly and touched his face.
"Why are you still standing there, building a house? Do you want to sleep in the wilderness tonight?" After finishing his narration, he saw that the three of them were still staring at him and immediately ordered.
The three of them got busy quickly, and soon a thatched house was built.
And Tang Sen took out a large piece of steak from the space. The steak alone had no atmosphere. Tang Sen also took out a full banquet of Manchu and Chinese dishes, and countless glasses of wine.
As for the tiger whip, Tang Sen soaked it in wine. It was very tonic after soaking it for a while!
The four of them were sitting around a bonfire and having a barbecue, and then they were having a feast, drinking and feasting, drinking and laughing, and it was so lively.
In the middle of the drink, Tang Sen also asked Xiao Bailong to use the water mirror technique to take a look at the Lantern Festival scene in Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty.
The lights in the flower market are like daylight, the neon lights are shining, the trees are sparkling with flowers, the stars are falling like rain, and the full moon is in the sky. Everyone is smiling like flowers and sighing at the world. There should be no parting before our eyes at this time.
What a wonderful Lantern Festival.
But the excitement is all theirs, and I own nothing.
The iron trees and silver flowers never sleep in the sky, and the river maples and fishing fires face melancholy.
A wanderer traveling far away has only the bright moon to accompany him.
Tang Sen immediately drank another swig, and his poetic mood became more intense. He went to the cliff and sang to his heart's content.
"When will the bright moon come? I'll ask the blue sky for my wine. I wonder what year it is in the palace in the sky?"
