Super Hero Monk: Hormones Journey to the West

Chapter 352 Entering the Heavenly Palace

Let's stop talking nonsense.

After careful consideration and repeated negotiations with Buddha over many details of the cooperation, Tang Xuanci and Guanyin both agreed to the zero-yuan purchase plan.

This plan, in its simplest sense, is actually quite complex.

However, there is one thing to say.

You can criticize Buddha for being bad, but you can't say he's incompetent. In terms of trading, he's actually quite good.

The plan proceeded very smoothly. Buddha first secretly instigated the Northern Underworld Demon Clan and once again transferred the True Martial Emperor from Wudang Mountain to the distant North Sea.

Then, by creating momentum in the Black Continent, they successfully persuaded Erqing, who had been recuperating from his injuries, to leave the Heavenly Palace and go to Dongsheng Shenzhou to take charge.

Tang Xuanci and Guanyin did as he said, which indeed prompted the Heavenly Court to hold a seminar, allowing them to legitimately bring the Eight Heavenly Generals of the South China Sea, two five-star generals of the Independent Army, the great gods of the Six Regions of the Western Heaven (Autonomous) and Tang's personal guards and other combat personnel into the Heavenly Palace.

All the timing was perfectly combined.

However, just as the operation was about to take place, a minor disturbance occurred within Black Continent.

It turns out that ever since the Buddhist prisoners of war were sent back by Tang Xuanci, Tathagata had noticed something was wrong with them and even guessed Tang Xuanci's sinister intentions.

However, given the influence of the Jin Chan faction within Buddhism, he could not directly kill them.

Therefore, the Buddha merely monitored them secretly, personally reflecting on their actions and purifying their minds, which had been poisoned by evil spirits and heretics.

With his unparalleled brainwashing abilities, he quickly purified most of the monks and arhats, but a few, such as the Vajra Indestructible Buddha and the Bodhisattva Akasagarbha, were still not subdued.

Gradually, toxic thoughts began to spread like HIV.

Some even raised questions, and some even openly sang in a tune that didn't match the rhythm of the music to this Buddha.

Just like... the golden cicada at the Ghost Festival back then.

Later, Buddha could no longer tolerate it.

So they cleverly devised a plan to have Vajra Indestructible Buddha and Akasagarbha Bodhisattva die in a border skirmish with the Taoist sect, killing two birds with one stone and creating momentum to lure Laozi and Lingbao Tianzun out of the Heavenly Palace.

This move was almost perfect, but unfortunately, he still underestimated the influence left by his esteemed disciple in Buddhism.

There was someone he hadn't even noticed, who had secretly been influenced by Jin Chan's Buddhist teachings in recent years, and whose thinking had been subtly changed.

He was very clever and even sensed that something might happen to Vajra Indestructible Buddha and Akasagarbha Bodhisattva, so he kept quiet and observed them in secret.

Therefore, he learned the truth about their demise.

It was precisely this truth that became the final straw that broke the scales, causing him to tip toward the other side of Buddha.

He was the one who participated in the same provincial examination as Tang Xuanci and Chen Xiaoke, and who consistently came out on top, earning the reputation of being a once-in-a-millennium talent in Zen Buddhism:
Huineng.

Soon, Huineng took advantage of his position and an iPhone that had been smuggled to Heizhou to connect to the weak 5G signal at the border of Jukuzhou and secretly contacted Tang Xuanci, hoping that he could provide technical support so that he could secretly promote the true Buddha Dharma and carry out the true salvation of all sentient beings in Heizhou.

Besides this, he also told Tang Xuanci some information:
Last year, the Jade Emperor sought out the Buddha, hoping to jointly research information technology and find a way to completely control the internet.

Later, they came to a conclusion—

In the field of information technology, Tang Xuanci is far ahead.

No matter how they control the terminals, transmission protocols, or firewalls, as long as the network is connected, Tang Xuanci will most likely be able to break through the restrictions in ways they can't even imagine, and act recklessly in cyberspace.

This is undoubtedly very scary.

While it may not inflict a substantial blow on them, it can have a devastating impact on power and faith.

In fact, signs of this destruction have already begun to emerge.

To completely control the internet, one must deal with Tang Xuanci.

Therefore, Huineng warned him to be wary of these two people joining forces against him.

Otherwise, he might die suddenly, just like Lei Zun.

Good heavens! Tang Xuanci was plotting with Buddha for peaches when he heard these profound words. It was as if a death knell had struck him awake, and he immediately became suspicious. Although this did not prove that Buddha was conspiring with the Jade Emperor in the matter of zero-yuan purchases, simply wanting to trick them into going to heaven, to deceive them, and to ambush them.

After all, the person in the Three Realms who is most lacking in peaches of immortality right now is the Buddha;
Moreover, according to the plan, the Buddhist sect will attack Changbai Mountain first, and Tang Xuanci and Guanyin will only take action after hearing the news.

But... what if the Buddha wants both?
Alternatively, the Jade Emperor and Buddha reached an agreement that the Jade Emperor would rather give up some of the peaches of immortality than not have him.

If they attack the Heavenly Palace and become anti-demon, even if they successfully obtain half of the peaches, can they escape unscathed?
But then again, the Jade Emperor is already dealing with him. If he gives up buying peaches for free and lets the Jade Emperor retaliate, the consequences are predictable... and will be terrible.

As the day of his ascension drew ever closer, he and Beaker re-examined numerous clues, yet they still could not ascertain the situation.

All Beaker could say was that the best course of action at present was to play it safe and suggest that he abandon the zero-yuan purchase plan and observe how the situation changed.

However, Tang Xuanci refused.

He made an extremely bold and crazy decision, choosing the trap of explosive energy, intending to continue his journey to the heavens.

……

The Heavenly Palace is located in the center of Kunlun Ruins, Daxue Mountain, and Tianshan Mountain, about 2,500 li to the east.

It was right above Chang'an.

The orbital altitude is approximately 912km-998km.

Although it is not on the equatorial plane and is far from reaching the standard altitude of a geostationary satellite, it still maintains "stationary with respect to the Earth".

The reason why the people of the Tang Dynasty could not see it when they looked up was simply because the outer barrier allowed sunlight to flow smoothly, making it completely invisible to those below.

Tang Xuanci first came here when he was conferred the title of Grand Marshal of Sandalwood Merit; the second time was before the bombing of Black Continent.

Even though this was his third visit, he was still deeply impressed by the magnificent and extravagant palaces inside the Western Heavenly Gate.

So, I took out my iPhone and opened the camera.

"Uh... Grand Marshal, taking photos is prohibited inside the Heavenly Palace now, hehehehe." A divine messenger who was receiving guests spoke up to stop him.

"Damn, even the Grand Marshal isn't allowed to film? What kind of immortal would be allowed to film that? Could the Great Celestial Venerable do it?"

Tang Xuanci ignored everything and started recording a video.

The messenger nodded and remained silent.

The heavenly soldiers and generals who were checking his belongings could only watch helplessly.

As is well known, the Heavenly Palace is isolated from the outside world, and only quantum entanglement techniques like the Spirit Lamp can connect it to the outside world.

Even the Sumeru Ring cannot open the Anywhere Door.

Therefore, everything they could bring, including their group of over a hundred people, was completely exposed under the scrutiny of methods such as the demon-revealing mirror and the spirit-manifesting array.

The Heavenly Palace is not the Imperial Palace.

Weapons such as the Golden Cudgel and the Nine-Toothed Rake are allowed to be carried.

Magical items with known functions, such as the Vajra Bracelet and the Banana Leaf Fan, can be brought along after registration.

Any other suspicious items with fluctuations in spiritual energy or a demonic energy content exceeding the "standard" are strictly prohibited from being brought in.

After the nuclear pacification of Huangfengling, this standard was raised again and again, reaching its peak after the appearance of the enormous demonic mushroom in Lingshan.

Even if you only take a piece of uranium ore, it will definitely be classified as a suspicious item and blocked from entering.

Shortly after, a piece weighing 81 tons, made entirely of molten lithium deuteride, inlaid with 99999 precious stones, and exquisitely carved, entitled "Great Ambitions," passed through security.

At this moment, Tang Xuanci finished recording the video, tossed the iPhone to the guard beside him, straightened his three-piece suit and vest, and strode confidently into the Heavenly Gate.

A monkey wearing a shirt and vest, and a pig wearing suspenders and a shirt, each with a cigarette in their mouth, followed closely behind.
