Journey to the West: Demon Emperor: Beginning as a Little Toad

Chapter 109 Eating Golden Cicada

"Golden Cicada..."

Hearing Xiao Chen mention Jin Chanzi again, He Sanniang blinked her beautiful eyes and asked curiously:

"My dear, you seem to be very interested in Jin Chanzi?"

"Of course."

"I'm Jin Chan, he's Jin Chan, we can't mention two Jin Chans in one sentence, so we are kind of related."

Xiao Chen patted He Sanniang, causing her to cry out, and then he explained in a serious tone.

"My dear, I have had some dealings with Jin Chanzi, and I do know a few things about him."

"Golden Cicada, originally a six-winged golden cicada, an ancient demon insect, is not inferior to me."

"After the six-winged golden cicada was born, it absorbed a lot of sap from the innate spiritual root Fusang tree and evolved spiritual consciousness. It has extremely high intelligence and anti-tracking ability."

"After becoming powerful, he exclusively feeds on the six kinds of creatures. His six wings are as sharp as knives, and his body is hard. He is not afraid of swords, guns, water, fire, or the five elements, and is not contaminated by them. He is very difficult to deal with."

"But the golden cicada has a fatal flaw. Every time it sheds its shell and forms a cocoon to become a pupa, its body will fall into a period of weakness."

"The Buddha took this opportunity to subdue Jin Chanzi and accepted him as his second disciple."

"Golden Cicada naturally refused to accept this, so when the Buddha sat down to listen to the sutra, he would often doze off, to show his attitude and disrespect for Buddhism."

"In recent years, Jin Chanzi has been in Lingshan, making mischief and not respecting Buddhism."

"Natha has no good way to deal with him."

"According to Jin Chanzi's current progress in cultivation, his vicious nature still exists, and his Buddha nature has not yet been nurtured."

"I'm afraid I haven't reached the stage of Guan Kong yet."

He Sanniang lay in Xiao Chen's arms and said with a chuckle.

"Um……"

Xiao Chen nodded upon hearing this, seeming to be thinking about something.

In this case, at this point in time, Jin Chanzi had not yet gone to Guankong, and naturally had no connection with the golden-nosed, white-haired rat demon.

Thinking of Jin Chanzi's experience of being captured, Xiao Chen suddenly realized something and thought to himself:
"The universe is full of wonders, and all things are interdependent and mutually exclusive."

"This world, while endowing these ancient monster insects with various powerful abilities, also left them with a fatal flaw."

"For example, the six-winged golden cicada is extremely fierce, but when it sheds its shell, it will fall into a weak period."

"The poisonous stake of the Eternal Poison Scorpion can destroy the six-foot-tall golden body of Tathagata."

"The golden light of the thousand eyes of the multi-eyed centipede can break Sun Wukong's indestructible body."

"But they are all completely restrained by the Pleiades star officials."

"This Jin Chanzi was taken advantage of by others when he was at his weakest, and was subdued. Naturally, he was furious and resentful."

"So, it makes sense that Jin Chanzi has always been disrespectful of Buddhism and that he would make trouble and complain every day during class."

"Otherwise, he is the second disciple of the Buddha. As the most core disciple of Buddhism, how could Jin Chanzi belittle Buddhism for no reason?"

"It's unacceptable to always doze off and not listen to the Buddhist scriptures."

"From this perspective, Jin Chanzi is indeed the most suitable candidate for the journey west."

"Golden Cicada's vicious nature has not yet been extinguished, and he disrespects Buddhism."

"Lingshan can take advantage of the opportunity of the journey to the west to make Jin Chanzi suffer endless hardships, so as to refine the evil nature of Jin Chanzi's inner demons and make him completely convert to Buddhism."

"Become a great Buddha at Lingshan."

Thinking to this point, Xiao Chen suddenly thought of the brocade cassock that Tang Sanzang had always worn.

The cicada shell of the six-winged golden cicada is naturally an excellent material for refining weapons. It is said that Tang Sanzang's brocade cassock was made from the cicada shell shed by the six-winged golden cicada.

Therefore, the brocade cassock also inherited some characteristics of the six-winged golden cicada, such as being immune to water and fire, and being able to protect oneself from evil spirits.

"I am the Eternal Poison Scorpion, and Jin Chanzi is the Six-winged Golden Cicada. In short, we are both famous ancient demon insects."

"When I first went to Lingshan, I wanted to find an opportunity to eat the flesh of the golden cicada, completely refine it, and improve my strength." When she said this, He Sanniang stuck out her scarlet tongue, licked her red lips, and a hint of greed appeared in her eyes.

But He Sanniang shook her head again and said regretfully:
"But after fighting with him, I found that this Golden Cicada is not that easy to deal with."

"Couldn't eat him."

"Sanniang, do you want to eat the flesh of the golden cicada?"

Xiao Chen was startled when he heard this and asked.

He Sanniang nodded, her eyes shining as she said:

"My dear, the original form of the Golden Cicada is a six-winged golden cicada, and my original form is an ancient poisonous scorpion. We are both ancient demon insects, and we can devour each other."

"If I could eat the flesh of the Golden Cicada and refine it, I might even have a chance to break through to the Golden Immortal realm in one fell swoop."

"Um?……"

"You want to eat the flesh of the golden cicada?"

When Xiao Chen heard this, he had an idea and thought about it.

At this point in time, it is obviously impossible to go to Lingshan and eat the golden cicada seeds.

But there was a period of time in Journey to the West where one really had the opportunity to eat golden cicadas.

Jin Chanzi was demoted and reincarnated in the Southern Continent of China. He was reincarnated nine times and passed by the Flowing Sand River nine times. Each time, his "Tang Monk's flesh" was eaten by the General Juanlian.

Although this Jin Chanzi was reincarnated as a human, that human body is after all the incarnation of Jin Chanzi, and perhaps there is still some connection between him and his previous life.

It is said that eating cicada meat can prolong life, so there must be some special things in it.

Of course, what is the real effect of this golden cicada meat? Only after eating it in the future can we know. At this stage, it is just speculation and preliminary planning.

At that time, the time for the journey to the West had not yet arrived, and it seemed that no one cared about this matter.

This Sha Seng not only ate the flesh of the golden cicada, but also swaggered around his neck with the skulls of Tang Seng's previous nine lives, and then set off directly.

But the flesh of the golden cicada was of no use to Sha Seng. It was a sheer waste and a disgrace to nature.

"Why did you eat the golden cicada?"

"Also, how to eat golden cicada?"

Xiao Chen thought about it seriously.

If he and the Scorpion Demon had squatted in front of the Quicksand River in advance and eaten the young monks who came every year, he would really have a chance to eat the flesh of the golden cicada.

Speaking of which, the blood, meat, bones and skin of Jin Chanzi are all good things.

At that time, He Sanniang would naturally eat the meat first.

The skin of this golden cicada can be refined into a brocade cassock, so its bones should also be excellent materials for refining weapons, which he can use to refine weapons.

Speaking of which, he also has a mosquito demon named Shu Wen under his command, who loves to suck blood.

There are actually very few mosquito monsters, and he has only seen this one in all these years.

The blood of the six-winged golden cicada cannot be wasted, so let the mosquito demon Shu Wen suck some. It is unknown whether the mosquito demon will have the opportunity to awaken its bloodline and return to its ancestral form after sucking the blood of the golden cicada and become the blood-winged black mosquito.

In the ancient times, there was a black mosquito with blood wings, which called itself "Mosquito Taoist". This mosquito was very ferocious. It sucked the blood of a Golden Immortal like drinking water. The Turtle Spirit Mother was sucked dry by this mosquito.

But speaking of which, even on the journey to the West, there are mosquitoes in the wilderness. It is normal for Tang Seng to be bitten by a wild mosquito and have some blood sucked, right?

"Of course!"

"If I can eat the golden cicada and refine it, it will be of great benefit to me."

When talking about this, He Sanniang's charming eyes shone brightly, and it was obvious that she was obsessed with "eating the golden cicada".

"Sanniang, the time is not right yet. Let's wait a few hundred years."

"I have a plan that may help you eat the golden cicada."

Looking at He Sanniang, who rarely looked so cute and innocent, Xiao Chen couldn't help but smile and comfort her.
