"You forgot? You told me to find Di Ting!"
Sun Wukong grabbed the earth god's ear and said.
"Great Sage, Great Sage, let go, let go!"
"This humble god did not see the Great Sage yesterday, nor did he mention Di Ting to the Great Sage!"
The land said with an innocent look on its face.
"Let's go, let's go!"
Sun Wukong was so angry that he kicked the land aside.
"Wukong, I've already visited both the South Sea and the Heavenly Court!"
"Should we also go to the underworld to take a look?"
Wu Tian asked.
Since everything is normal in the South China Sea and the Heavenly Court, it's likely the same in the Underworld.
Therefore, there is no need to go to the underworld.
Afterwards, they returned to the Great Thunder Temple on Mount Ling.
"This disciple truly does not know what to say to the Buddha!"
Inside the main hall, Sun Wukong said helplessly.
"Wukong, now that you have entered the Buddhist order, you would never lie or deceive me. I absolutely believe that!"
"But what exactly are you seeing?"
Wutian's face was filled with compassion and peace, and his tone was full of trust in Sun Wukong.
"Ah, disciple remembers!"
After Wutian's reminder, Sun Wukong's eyes suddenly lit up.
Then, he flipped his right hand, and a black lotus appeared in his palm.
He handed the black lotus to Wutian and said, "This was left behind when the demon transformed. Please examine it, Buddha."
Black Lotus!
Li Yao's expression shifted slightly.
It was this black lotus of primordial spirit that allowed Wutian to see Sun Wukong's every move.
This primordial spirit black lotus is probably even more powerful than those seventeen relics.
Wu Tian took the black lotus, glanced at it a few times, and his expression gradually darkened.
"Wukong, what you saw before must have been real!"
"However, that's what it will look like thirty-three years from now, when the catastrophe arrives!"
Wu Tian said in a deep voice.
"Buddha, this disciple does not understand!"
Sun Wukong asked in confusion.
"Wukong, do you still remember the name Wutian?"
Wu Tian spoke up.
"Wu Tian?!"
"Of course I remember him. He's the master of the black-clad man who stole my scriptures from the Tongtian River. I even dreamed about him yesterday!"
Sun Wukong quickly said.
"This is it, Wutian is the Great Sage of the Demon Realm..."
Wutian began to deceive Sun Wukong, leaving Sun Wukong completely bewildered.
Wutian gradually convinced Sun Wukong that everything he had seen and witnessed in the past few days was an illusion created by the Black Lotus.
Thirty-three years later, when the reincarnated demon child 'Wutian' grows up, the great calamity of the Three Realms will arrive.
It must be said that Wutian's methods and wisdom are in no way inferior to those of Rulai.
Unfortunately, his subordinates were far less capable.
The bunch of idiots under Wutian's command, apart from the giant scorpion who has some cleverness, are all useless teammates.
Whether it was the Black Robe, the Black Lotus Saint Envoy, the Winning Demon, or the demons they later subdued such as the White Elephant and the Green Lion.
These demons are more trouble than they're worth.
They were either seen through by Sun Wukong or deceived by him.
If it weren't for these incompetent teammates, Buddha might not have been able to return.
It's no wonder that Wutian admired Sun Wukong and Tang Sanzang so much when he saw them; his subordinates had really let him down.
Just then, a sound came from outside the hall.
Immediately afterwards, Tang Sanzang, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Wujing, the master and his disciples, walked in.
It's meaningless; they are all monsters in disguise.
Zhu Bajie, one of them, is the Black Lotus Saint Envoy.
Tang Sanzang and his companions paid their respects to the Buddha, who was an illusion created by Wutian.
"Monkey King, Monkey King, I had a dream yesterday!"
"I dreamt that I went to your Flower and Fruit Mountain. You said that your master was in trouble and asked me to follow you to Luojia Mountain!"
"When we got there, all the guardian deities of the mountain were dead, and you told me to stand guard outside."
"As a result, I was captured by demons and monsters, which scared me so much that I broke out in a cold sweat and woke up in a fright!"
Pigsy pulled Monkey King along and covered up the fact that he had suddenly disappeared.
Next, under Wutian's deliberate guidance, Sun Wukong accepted the mission of finding Wutian's reincarnated demon child.
Of course, he also took the fake Pigsy with him.
To make it easier to monitor Sun Wukong, Wutian also gave Sun Wukong the Black Lotus of Primordial Spirit.
As for the excuse, it's very simple: the Black Lotus is the manifestation of Wutian's primordial spirit.
Sun Wukong can use the Black Lotus to find the whereabouts of Wutian's reincarnated demon child.
After Sun Wukong and the fake Pigsy left Mount Ling, Wutian couldn't help but burst into laughter.
In an instant, he returned to his original appearance.
The Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the main hall all reverted to their original forms, transforming back into hideous monsters.
At this moment, these monsters laughed wildly, and their demonic aura permeated the entire hall.
"From now on, Sun Wukong will be at my service!"
"However, everyone must be careful not to miss any clues!"
Wutian gave the group of monsters a piece of advice.
"yes!"
The group of monsters accepted the order.
"Black-robed protector, from this day forward immediately send people to search for the relic, but remember to avoid Sun Wukong!"
Wutian gave an order to the man in black robes.
"yes!"
The man in black robes clasped his hands in a gesture of respect and accepted the order.
Then, Wutian looked at Li Yao and said, "Fellow Daoist Li, you are very powerful, so please help me monitor Sun Wukong's movements."
"No problem!"
Li Yao shrugged and smiled slightly.
Chapter 776 Seventeen Relics
The seventeen relics were the Buddha's greatest reliance in defeating Wutian.
Therefore, the seventeen relics are the most powerful and precious treasures in this world.
These seventeen relics are distributed in different places.
There is one at Longguang Temple in Yinwu Mountain.
There is one at Twin Pagoda Temple in Twin Pagoda County.
There are three in the Heavenly Palace of the Bull.
There are three in the Ten Thousand Buddha Pagoda in Mongolia.
There are three at Wuzhuang Temple on Longevity Hill.
There are four in the Water Curtain Cave of Huaguo Mountain.
One of the Buddhas of the Dipankara lineage was found when the Buddha passed away.
Sun Wukong himself was the last one.
Li Yao has already gone to Shuangta Temple in Shuangta County and obtained a relic there.
Now, he and Xiaobai have arrived at the Thirty-Third Heaven of the Celestial Realm, at the Dou Niu Palace.
The Dou Niu Palace is located between the Southern Dou Star Palace and the Altair Star Palace in the Twenty-Eight Mansions, and there is a demon-slaying platform in front of its gate.
The Dou Niu Palace is magnificent, with carved railings and jade steps, and luxurious decorations. It is one of the thirty-three palaces of the Heavenly Court.
At this moment, many heavenly soldiers and generals are guarding the entrance to the Bullfighting Palace, and it looks no different from before.
However, once inside the palace, one can smell a strong odor of alcohol.
