Wu Tian said something thoughtfully, his face expressionless, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
"Buddha, we have now alarmed Zhen Yuanzi!"
"Moreover, Sun Wukong and the others have probably already found Zhen Yuanzi."
"Zhen Yuanzi may have already told Sun Wukong and the others about the whereabouts of the relic!"
What should we do next?
The man in the black robe asked.
Wu Tian hesitated for a moment, then turned his gaze to Li Yao.
"Fellow Daoist Li, do you have any brilliant plan?"
Wu Tian asked calmly.
"The relics are simply hidden in the three realms: the heavens, the underworld, and the human realm!"
"The human realm is too vast and difficult to control!"
"However, there are only a few entrances between the human world and the underworld, or between the human world and the heavenly realm!"
"As long as we guard the entrance from the human world to the underworld, and the entrance from the human world to the heavenly realm, and then lay a trap, we can wait for the rabbit to run into the tree stump!"
"Sun Wukong and his companions will surely walk right into our trap!"
Li Yao chuckled softly.
"wonderful!"
"wonderful!"
"wonderful!"
"Fellow Daoist Li is indeed exceptionally intelligent!"
"Let's proceed according to Fellow Daoist Li's plan!"
Wu Tian clapped and cheered.
...
In the underworld.
Squads of demon soldiers patrolled back and forth incessantly.
The torches in their hands illuminated the surrounding passageways and corners.
Under Wutian's orders, Ying Yao led a group of demons and monsters to set up many traps and a large number of demon soldiers near the entrance to the underworld.
These mechanisms and demonic soldiers were concealed by the formation.
Once Sun Wukong and his companions enter the underworld, Ying Yao will be able to immediately learn of the situation and then kill them.
Of course, this was all wishful thinking on Ying Yao's part.
These mechanisms and demon soldiers were simply no match for Sun Wukong and his companions' attack.
Moreover, obtaining the relics within the Ten Thousand Buddha Pagoda in the Underworld does not necessarily require going through the Underworld.
You can also reach the Ten Thousand Buddha Pagoda in Mengjie through the Ten Thousand Buddha Map in the Lingjiu Cave of the Great Snow Mountain.
Even if Sun Wukong did choose to travel from the Underworld to the Ten Thousand Buddha Pagoda in the Realm of the Demon, he might not necessarily enter directly from the entrance of the Underworld.
Li Yao speculated that Sun Wukong might have entered the underworld through another passage.
That passage was the one through which Tang Sanzang chose to escape from the underworld: the tunnel of the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
Because now Sun Wukong and Tang Sanzang have gathered together.
Tang Sanzang was quite familiar with the six realms of reincarnation.
Therefore, it is highly likely that Tang Sanzang suggested that Sun Wukong enter the underworld through the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
They might even want to take this opportunity to imprison the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats in the underworld.
After Wutian captured the gods and Buddhas of the Three Realms, he imprisoned them in two separate places.
One is the underworld, and the other is the Asura realm.
All the gods of the heavens were imprisoned by Wutian in the Asura realm.
In order to lower Sun Wukong's guard, Wutian deliberately let Ayinava release Nezha, and then deliberately spread the news that Ayinava would be executed.
At the same time, Wutian ordered Ayinava to rebuild the Asura Realm, setting up numerous traps and mechanisms.
If Sun Wukong dares to go to the Asura Realm to rescue these heavenly gods, he can wipe them all out in one fell swoop.
Besides dealing with Sun Wukong and his companions, Wutian also did not forget to search for the reincarnation of Buddha.
Even heroes can't resist the charms of a beautiful woman, and the reincarnation of Buddha is no exception!
Qiao Ling'er, the reincarnation of Buddha, is handsome, kind-hearted, and extremely popular with women.
First, the female bandit Bai Lianhua fell in love with Qiao Ling'er.
Later, Biyou Fairy, a disciple of Donghua, also fell in love with Qiao Ling'er.
Then a dramatic love triangle unfolded.
The giant scorpion protector under Wutian's command was there after he discovered that Bai Lianhua and Qiao Ling'er were in love.
Then, she devised a plan to make Bai Lianhua mistakenly believe that Sun Wukong had slaughtered her entire village, thus inducing her to lure Qiao Ling'er out.
Then, the giant scorpion used the life of the white lotus to coerce Qiao Ling'er into submission and captured her in the Spirit Mountain.
Now, Qiao Ling'er has been imprisoned in the Abyss of Darkness by Wu Tian.
Li Yao is currently in the underworld, led by Ying Yao, inspecting the situation there.
Suddenly, a demon soldier stepped forward and reported, "Reporting to Protector Ying, someone has broken into the underworld from the mortal realm!"
"Has someone entered from the mortal realm?"
"That must be Sun Wukong and his companions!"
"Hahaha……"
"They really fell for it!"
"Fellow Daoist Li, your plan is indeed brilliant!"
"Sun Wukong really came to the underworld!"
"Men, let's go!"
"This time we must wipe out Sun Wukong and his allies in one fell swoop!"
Ying Yao was overjoyed.
Immediately, she led a group of demons and monsters toward the entrance to the underworld.
"Let's go take a look!"
Li Yao gave Xiao Bai a wink.
Then, the two of them arrived at the entrance to the underworld.
Near the entrance to the underworld, there were four figures.
They are Nezha, Sha Wujing, Sun Wukong, and Zhu Bajie.
"Did Sun Wukong and his companions really come here?"
Xiao Bai frowned slightly.
"no!"
"Those Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie are actually Bai Lianhua and Biyou Fairy in disguise!"
Li Yao activated his Heavenly Eye and immediately saw that Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie were not their true forms.
Their appearance here is likely a diversionary tactic to attract the attention of these demons and monsters.
Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie are definitely in another place.
"Let's go, let's go to the Six Paths of Reincarnation!"
Li Yao said to Xiao Bai.
Immediately, a cloud of black mist rose up, and they vanished.
The entrance to the underworld from the six realms of reincarnation.
A series of golden lights flashed by.
Holding the golden cudgel, Sun Wukong took the lead and entered the underworld through the reincarnation tunnel.
"Monkey King, Monkey King, wait for us!"
Behind Sun Wukong is Zhu Bajie, holding a nine-toothed rake.
Behind Pigsy was a handsome and extraordinary figure, dressed in a brocade cassock, who was also known as the Sandalwood Merit Buddha, Tang Sanzang.
This time, the three of them came to the underworld not only to find relics, but also to rescue the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas imprisoned there.
"Master, is this the place where you were imprisoned?"
Sun Wukong looked around at his surroundings and asked his master.
"Indeed, this is where I and a group of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas were imprisoned!"
"Fortunately, I managed to comprehend the words left by the Buddha when he passed away, which restored my magical powers, allowing me to escape Wutian's control and then escape to the human world through the tunnel of the Six Paths of Reincarnation!"
"However, I was fortunate enough to meet a mysterious man in black that day, who took me away from the cycle of reincarnation!"
"Otherwise, I might still be imprisoned!"
The scene from that day was still vivid in Tang Sanzang's mind.
He just never figured out who that mysterious man in black was!
"Master, what is this?"
Sun Wukong pointed to a large machine to the side and asked a question.
"This mechanism is the magic weapon that Wutian used to replicate the gods and Buddhas of the Three Realms!"
