Global Game: I, the Necromancer, am the scourge

However, on the surface, this guy worships sincerely, but internally he curses everyone from Tathagata to the entire Buddhist Sect.

As Chen Sanzang finished reciting the scriptures, the Buddha Seal emitted a golden light, slowly flying away from the peak of Five-finger Mountain.

With the departure of this Buddha Seal, the Five Elements Formation linked beneath Five Elements Mountain instantly ceased its operation, and the immense Five Elements Power began to slowly disperse to the surroundings.

Western Heavenly Spiritual Mountain, Da Leiyin Temple.

A projection appeared in the sky, showing the situation on Five Elements Mountain.

Seeing the uninhibited Chen Sanzang kneel honestly before the Buddha Seal, making the three kneels and nine kowtows in worship, the Buddha’s mouth revealed an indiscernible smile.

Meanwhile, numerous Bodhisattvas and Buddhas in Da Leiyin Temple breathed a sigh of relief upon witnessing this scene, especially Guanyin Bodhisattva.

For the Westward Journey, she had been bustling around tirelessly, yet things were going well with one minor oversight—the Golden Cicada’s last lifetime reincarnate veered to Java Country instead.

Such a change almost made Guanyin think that the Westward Journey was bungled, yet unexpectedly the unreliable Chen Sanzang, with an air of unconcern, even practiced Joyful Zen, and showed no regard for the Buddhist Sect’s rules and regulations.

However, his deeply hidden Buddha Nature remained unchanged, and his pure Buddha Essence could be compared with the Buddha himself.

At this moment, seeing the devout worship of Chen Sanzang, Guanyin was able to put down most of her worries.

At least now, it seemed that this lifetime’s Golden Cicada was impossible to fall into the Demon Path.

After all, the Western Teaching was founded atop the Demonic Cult, and the boundary between Buddha and Demon is exceedingly thin; this is also why the most cultivators that fall into demonhood in the Primordial World are Buddhist Practitioners; Buddha and Demon are separated by a single thought.

"Some slight relaxation on the surveillance of Chen Sanzang can be allowed; the most important thing now is to focus on the layout in the Western Continent."

The Buddha waved his hand, and the light screen in the sky disappeared, replaced by a map of the Western Continent.

Yet, on this map appeared many small red dots, marking the route from Chen Sanzang entering the Western Continent, all the way to the Western Heavenly Spiritual Mountain Leiyin Temple.

"Heavenly Court and the Three Religions, as well as some other forces’ involvement, need to be purged; it’s a good time to expand the area under our Buddhist control."

Although the Western Continent is the base of Buddhism, it has not been entirely incorporated into Buddhist control, dotted all over with spikes—some set by the Heavenly Court, some by the Three Religions, or hidden by other forces.

They intend to leverage Chen Sanzang’s westward journey, uprooting some forces along the way that are not under Buddhist control!

The Buddhist Sect is scheming how to completely control the Western Continent.

Five Elements Mountain, after Chen Sanzang finished worshiping the Buddha Seal, Five-finger Mountain quaked and shook.

"Master Sanzang, quickly move away, Old Sun is coming out now!"

Feeling the dispersal of the Five Elements Power and the disappearance of the binding seal, Sun Wukong perked up and lifted Five Elements Mountain on his back.

The mountain crumbled, land split, and dust filled the sky; with a loud roar, a monkey fattened to a ball soared into the sky, reaching the clouds.

"Old Sun is out! Haha..."

Flying through the air, Chen Sanzang somehow had a Memory Stone in hand and started snapping wildly at Sun Wukong.

Before Sun Wukong could react, he quickly stored away these black materials.

Sun Wukong was also skilled, flipping multiple somersaults; his initially round form instantly slimming down, transforming back into the charming Monkey King that captivated thousands of female monkeys!

"Such a Little Kongkong is much more pleasing to the eye, a prosperous fat Monkey King looks clumsy; selling that Memory Stone could fetch quite the bounty of good items."

In the Myriad Worlds of the Heavens, Sun Wukong’s fame is exceptionally high, and many would be willing to pay for his black materials.

This is why Chen Sanzang and Old Xi are keen to record him.

"Alright, Little Kongkong, stop hopping around; it’s time for us to start the action."

Flying in the sky, Chen Sanzang flashed a peculiar smile toward a cloud.

"Sanzang, the Heavenly Mechanism has been masked, information within a thousand-mile radius is blocked, you have ten minutes to act, and after that, the probability of being discovered increases geometrically."

The Buddha can directly observe those with a cultivation level weaker than himself, but Old Xi is stronger, especially with the Pig God backing him up; it’s easier to fool them.

Of course, if the Buddha comes directly to Five Elements Mountain, it’s another matter, considering the disparity between direct sight and long-distance observation, not to mention being within a Mythical World.

Old Xi merely covered a thousand-mile radius, allowing everything to unfold according to his orchestrated plan, thus effortlessly fooling Buddhist and Heavenly Court’s view.

As numerous Immortals and Buddhas received messages from their leaders, preparing to return, they suddenly discovered monkey figures appearing on their return path.

A monkey emitting fierce light from its eyes, its face carrying a chilling smile, causing all the Immortals and Buddhas to feel an inexplicable chill enter their hearts.

"Where do you think you’re going?"

Sun Wukong stared viciously at these dogs; himself trapped here, these guys were the Prison Chiefs, and if not for the intervention of the Great Qin Empire people, these fellows would have fed him Iron Juice Copper Pills!

Mana being sealed, consuming excessive Iron Juice Copper Pills would inevitably obstruct the purity of the physical body, gratuitously increasing the difficulty of cultivating the Chaos Demon Ape Technique.

Clearly, this is the calculation of the Buddhist Sect and Heavenly Court—they don’t want him breaching the boundary and even attempt to sever his path.

How could the monkey not resent?

But insufficient strength can only be tolerated.
