Super Hero Monk: Hormones Journey to the West

Chapter 315 Xuanci is trapped in the Poisonous Enemy's Cave, Wukong is defeated and flees to Fangcun Mountain

Despite the master and his two disciples using all their skills, they still could not defeat the scorpion demon.

Si Xuange sensed the longevity energy fluctuations manifesting within Tang Xuanci's body and discovered that, just as Sai Taisui had said, it shared the same origin as the reincarnation power he had felt in the Longevity Golden Soup, filling him with immense joy.

The sword strikes grew increasingly fierce, and the ghostly needles he flicked out were even more difficult for the three of them to parry.

Soon, Tang Xuanci could no longer withstand the violent life force within his body, and his towering hair was extinguished as if it had burned out.

Si Xuange seized the opportunity, shot out five dark needles to force Wu Neng back, and flew to grab Tang Xuanci. A black scorpion tail suddenly grew from his crotch and withstood the monkey's blow.

At this moment, the demons of Poisonous Enemy Mountain led their conservative army in a full-scale attack, and Sai Tai Sui also unleashed a powerful purple-gold bell magic weapon.

Ultimately, the Independent Division of the Heavenly Soldiers and the Reformed Army suffered a crushing defeat.

Unable to save Tang Xuanci, Wukong and Wuneng could only lead their remaining troops in defeat and retreat.

……

Meanwhile, Tang Xuanci, having been captured by Si Xuange and brought back to his cave, lay weakly on a beast-skin couch, cursing the monkey in his heart:
"Damn it."

"They can harm Buddha, but they might not be able to harm me, Old Sun. I'll go there, and if I find those two fetuses, I guarantee I'll bring them back to you easily."

"That's it?
"Even with three against one, they were all killed!"
"It's clearly no match for this scorpion demon, let alone Buddha."

"It seems that the old Buddha didn't try to deceive or ambush it at all five hundred years ago; he just killed it in one move..."

As I pondered, I became utterly exhausted and unknowingly drifted into a deep, baby-like sleep.

When he opened his eyes again, he saw the scorpion demon right in front of him.

To his secret relief, having confirmed that the demon was a D-cup, he realized she was clearly female, and even quite attractive. Although extremely fierce, she possessed a unique charm.

"Good, good, it's easy if it's a female."

"If I am poor and lowly, I will move; if I am powerful and mighty, I will submit to her first, and then slowly find a way to persuade her."

"She's even stronger than monkeys and pigs combined. If I could use her, she could even fight against Buddha in the future!"

"This is what they call 'the old man losing his horse,' but who knows if it's a blessing in disguise?"

"How can you catch a scorpion without entering its lair?"

Thinking about it, he was suddenly overjoyed instead of sad, and his spirits even improved a lot. He immediately put his plan into action, and had Beaker analyze the Scorpion Demon as a rich woman and offer advice, and started to APU her.

Unexpectedly, he soon discovered that although this scorpion demon was female, it was practically a stone monkey among scorpions.

While asking questions with a threatening tone, Si Xuange was directly examining his devilish muscles with his hands, but there was no trace of appreciation for the opposite sex, only a hunger for Tang Monk's flesh.

It's like... fiddling with a safe of money.

After struggling for half an hour, she realized that she really couldn't generate the power of the Nine Revolutions Reincarnation, so she had no choice but to invite Sai Tai Sui.

Upon hearing that Sai Tai Sui was actually sent by Guanyin, Tang Xuanci immediately understood why he had ambushed Sai Tai Sui in the Zimu River.

At the same time, he was quite shocked, because if the Buddhist sect was behind this, he was afraid he would really have a hard time getting away with it this time.

Soon, following Guanyin's instructions, Sai Tai Sui began to persuade him to voluntarily relinquish his longevity fruit using three main reasons.

the first:

Guanyin stopped pretending and tacitly accepted that the Buddhist sect wanted to capture him and take him to Mount Ling to refine the elixir of immortality.

He frankly stated that he would now settle for second best and not force him to go to Mount Ling. He had already come up with another way to temporarily store some of the longevity fruits on the spot.

As long as he can expel the longevity fruit from his body, the Buddhist sect has no reason to harm him further. They can let him return with the captured soldiers and ensure his safe evacuation from the Women's Kingdom.

second:

Guanyin dropped the pretense and said directly that there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests.

Now that the Taoist sect is secretly aiding the anti-demon in causing chaos in the West, the Buddhist sect needs allies. In the future, they will not only fully support him in quelling the rebellion, but also strongly recommend him to the Heavenly Court once he achieves great success.

At that time, ensuring he becomes the ruler of a region and ranks among the fourth-grade immortals will be no problem at all.

third:

Guanyin stopped pretending and told him the truth directly. It turned out that the reason he couldn't find Li Xian in the Women's Kingdom was because Li Xian's soul had already vanished into thin air when she died.

In other words, she couldn't be reborn through a second womb like Gao Huitong.

Guanyin has thoroughly investigated what happened in the grove back then, proving that the plot to ambush and kill Li Xian and others was the work of the Taoist sect, with the aim of making him resent the Buddhist sect and turn to the Taoist sect.

Sai Tai Sui brought a series of witnesses and physical evidence, including but not limited to Taoist Master Lei Yizi, who sent people to chase after Li Xian at the time.

One of the most important things is Siqin, whose soul was also severely damaged at the time, but was saved by Guanyin.

Because her three souls were incomplete, she could not be directly reincarnated into a human body like Gao Huitong. Guanyin had to find another way, allowing her to possess a special kind of dog on Mount Luojia. It took her even longer to regain her intelligence and memories.

Upon hearing the dog, who was actually Siqin, speak human language and tearfully recount the events of that time, Beaker verified the situation based on the traces recorded by the visual system at the time, stating that the events matched perfectly without any flaws.

His last glimmer of hope was shattered.

Xianbao is dead.

Completely gone.

Sai Tai Sui paused for a moment, then spoke again, saying that although the Bodhisattva and Buddha had forced him to obtain the scriptures, they had actually formed an irreconcilable enmity with him, which in turn helped him achieve his current level of cultivation and status.

The Taoist sect was the real culprit who killed his beloved.

Since the enemy of my enemy is my friend, if he wants revenge, he should turn hostility into friendship with my Buddha.

After saying this, he told him to think it over carefully and then left the stone chamber.

……

After the monkey's defeat, he was filled with resentment and anger, and he was completely dissatisfied with the female demon.

Moreover, although he seemed not to care, he was actually concerned about the safety of his cheap master.

After being treated by Pilanpo, it immediately returned to Poisonous Enemy Mountain, using its seventy-two transformations to sneak into the cave, to deceive and ambush the Scorpion Demon, and incidentally rescue Tang Xuanci.

Unexpectedly, Si Xuange discovered it.

The scorpion and the monkey fought for another two hundred rounds.

The injured monkey tried to escape but failed.

Being beaten twice by the same demon filled it with a sense of powerlessness.

I also understand now that there are people beyond monkeys, and heavens beyond mountains.

Even if he hadn't been tricked into the Buddha's grasp back then, and had relied on the boundless divine power temporarily stored in his body by consuming a large number of golden pills, he still certainly wouldn't have been able to defeat that old Buddha.

What makes the monkey feel most powerless is that it has no idea how far it can go.

It took it three years to attain immortality, entirely thanks to the guidance of a master. After completing its apprenticeship, it seemed to be invincible and no longer knew how to cultivate.

Upon realizing this, the monkey was bewildered and its energy plummeted.

In a daze, instead of returning to Zhu Wuneng's place, it inexplicably traveled through mountains and valleys, following the directions in its memory, and arrived at a mountain bordering the Western Sea.

But what one sees is a thousand peaks arrayed like halberds, ten thousand cliffs spread like a screen, exuding a chilling aura under the dim moonlight.

Following the path of his memory, Wukong ventured deep into the mountains and arrived at an ancient cave.

The cave entrance was half-open, and a stone tablet stood on the cliff top, tilted and sunken in the ground, covered with wild vines and moss, with ten large characters faintly visible on it.

It knows without looking that it is:

Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, Sanxing Xieyue Cave.

It turns out that this was the very place where it learned its skills from its master.

The entrance to the cave still stands, but the inside is now dilapidated and deserted.

It trudged through the weeds and dust, climbed the steps and stepped over the threshold, finally arriving at the house where its mentor had lived, and stood before a dilapidated bed.

Thinking back to all that happened back then, and how things have changed now, tears streamed down my cheeks, and I cried like a child.
