"But the dragon aura on you is not much weaker than that of the Ancestral Dragon. Could you be the second Ancestral Dragon born in the world?" Maitreya Buddha looked Rhodes up and down and said.
This is the only explanation that seems to reveal the other party's identity: the second ancestral dragon born in the world. No one knows when it was born or how long it has been born. What is its purpose in getting into trouble now?
The opponent's magical power should be comparable to his, but the opponent's cultivation is not the true source of Taoism, nor the Buddhist power of Buddhism, nor the demonic power of the demon race, but a very special power.
To be honest, Maitreya Buddha couldn't see the other party's true strength, and the other party's ability to revive even a remnant soul like Sun Wukong truly surprised Maitreya Buddha, considering Sun Wukong's recent death.
Even he couldn't reverse it, and even the current head of Buddhism, the Buddha, couldn't revive Sun Wukong, but the other party could.
Moreover, Maitreya Buddha could clearly see that he had just transformed Marshal Tianpeng Zhu Bajie back to his original appearance; it was no ordinary magic at all.
Rather, it is the world's most powerful supernatural ability, the Time Supernatural Ability. Very few people can comprehend this power, and even those at their level can only barely grasp a trace of time.
"Hahaha! As expected of the future Buddha, you were able to guess my origins. May I ask what brings Maitreya Buddha here?" Rhodes said.
Once he has mastered the Thirty-Six Transformations of the Heavenly Gang, the Seventy-Two Transformations of the Earthly Fiends, the Great Celestial Immortal Technique, and the Supreme Dao Technique.
When I have fully mastered the methods of making golden relics in Buddhism, this world will become my backyard, and at that time, Mount Ling Buddhism will also be my target for conquest.
Now that this future Buddha believes himself to be the second ancestral dragon born in this world, let this misunderstanding continue! Rhodes doesn't want to show too much hostility right now.
"I am here to help an old friend, but it seems he no longer needs my help. Also, I want to teach my rebellious disciple a lesson," Maitreya Buddha said.
Although he is the future Buddha, when will he become the true Buddha? There is no time limit, or rather, there is no future.
He knew he was always subordinate to the Buddha, and that the supreme Buddha of the Western Paradise was the Buddha, not Maitreya, the future Buddha. Therefore, he wanted to change this situation through his own means and truly become the ancestor of all Buddhas.
Sun Wukong is his chess piece, and Erlang Shen Yang Jian is also one of his chess pieces. He bought countless chess pieces, just to see which move he could make.
Perhaps this second ancestral dragon born from heaven and earth could help him. If the two of them joined forces, they might be able to defeat the Buddha. But how could he persuade the other party to help?
Or how can you subtly express your intentions to the other party? You can't openly discuss what he's doing right now.
The Buddha can turn a blind eye, but if things go too far, this future Buddha can be replaced.
“I see. You can leave your wicked disciple to Wukong and the others. I believe they will soon deal with that scoundrel. Surely the Future Buddha wouldn’t want to spare his life?” Rhodes asked.
“This wicked child has committed many evil deeds, and this Little Thunderclap Temple is full of wandering ghosts. I want that disciple to atone for his sins and perform a ritual here to help the departed souls pass on,” Maitreya Buddha said.
"Hahaha! I think that's unnecessary. I'll just send them into reincarnation." Rhodes smiled and snapped his fingers.
Suddenly, in the entire Little Thunderclap Temple, there were human demon monks who had been cruelly killed by the monsters, and snow zombies who had been tricked into coming here by Monk Bukong and frozen to death.
There were also the souls of various demon races, and even the snake general among the tortoise and snake generals. Their unjustly killed souls were drawn by a mysterious force and directly entered the cycle of reincarnation without even being judged by Yama.
This move truly frightened Maitreya Buddha. What kind of method was this?
This is directly related to the true meaning of death, and its power even surpasses that of the underworld. How is this possible? Could it be the legendary King of the Underworld?
There are emperors in the heavens, and naturally there are emperors on earth. However, due to the intervention of Buddhism and the Heavenly Court, the realm of the Six Paths of Reincarnation has been divided into the Ten Kings of Hell, the Five Ghost Emperors, and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, which forcibly split up a complete law of death in the underworld.
However, although it has been separated, it does not mean that the law of death does not exist. If there were no law of death, then nothing would die. Therefore, there has always been a vacant position in the underworld, which belongs to the legendary King of the Underworld.
However, from the time the world was born until now, both the Heavenly Court and Mount Ling have tried their best to prevent the birth of the Underworld Emperor and to take over the land of the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
The death power that Rhodes unleashed was the most primal power of the underworld. After arriving in the Journey to the West world, Rhodes also discovered the profound laws of the underworld, and thus accepted these laws of the underworld without hesitation.
Therefore, in theory, Rhodes can indeed exercise all the rights of the King of Hell, and can even dismiss the Ten Kings of Hell and drive out the Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha who has infiltrated the underworld from Mount Ling.
“Unexpectedly, the second ancestral dragon in the world was born to inherit the position of the Yin Emperor. This is indeed plausible,” Maitreya Buddha said.
This second ancestral dragon in the sky, possessing such magical power, has now successfully obtained the position of the Underworld Emperor.
It seems the other party has been biding their time for a long time since the incident! They only came out after obtaining the position of the underworld emperor.
Wonderful! It seems that the world is indeed about to change. I wonder if the Heavenly Court and Mount Ling will hand over the power of the Six Paths of Reincarnation. If they don't, they will offend this King of the Underworld.
Then a conflict will inevitably break out between the two sides. This Yin Emperor controls the purest law of death. He can arbitrarily alter the records in the Book of Life and Death of the Southern Dipper. All the gods and Buddhas in the sky have their lives and deaths in his hands.
In the past, those who transcended the Three Realms and were outside the Five Elements could live forever, but there was a limit to their lifespan. They needed to consume peaches of immortality, ginseng fruits, and the elixir of Laozi to extend their lifespan.
But now that the King of the Underworld has appeared, if he writes that immortal's name in the Book of Life and Death of the Southern Dipper, even if he has consumed a nine-thousand-year-old purple-veined peach, he will still be unable to escape death!
"Hahaha! I also inherited this position of the Underworld Emperor by chance. In a month or so, I will naturally go to Mount Ling to have a detailed talk with Buddha. As for the Heavenly Court, I will also make time to visit it." Rhodes said in a very amiable manner.
A month later, I'm going to Lingshan just to inform you; it's not something you can say anymore.
"Lingshan cordially awaits your arrival, fellow Daoist, and awaits the arrival of the Underworld Emperor."
"Your methods are truly remarkable. I've heard that divine beasts are born with innate supernatural abilities. It seems you used your innate supernatural ability to revive Wukong. A time-type innate supernatural ability, fellow Daoist, is indeed a great fortune," Maitreya Buddha said.
Besides the law of death, Maitreya Buddha also sensed a vibrant life force in Rhodes, as well as several inexplicable powers and a force of time.
This second ancestral dragon born in the world is far stronger than the previous one, and it also controls more supernatural powers. It is indeed not easy to deal with. It seems that Mount Ling will have to invite Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva back.
But what does this have to do with me? I am just a future Buddha, and I, as a future Buddha, have no say in anything that happens in Buddhism now.
Because all of this is decided by the Buddha, the current Tathagata Buddha.
At this moment, Maitreya Buddha couldn't wait to go back and tell Tathagata Buddha the good news. He really wanted to see how humiliated Maitreya Buddha looked!
"Hahaha! Definitely, definitely. I will have a long talk with the Future Buddha by lamplight when the time comes," Rhodes said.
“Amitabha, benefactor, there is an old friend waiting for Sun Wukong in that pagoda. Although he no longer needs what he has, Wukong should still go and see him. However, he should do so after he has collected the six senses, as that friend also has an unresolved issue.” Maitreya Buddha said.
Originally, he was going to find a way to conceal Yang Jian's whereabouts, but now he didn't need to. If Yang Jian was discovered to have secretly descended to the mortal realm, or even secretly helped Sun Wukong, then it would have nothing to do with him, the Maitreya Buddha.
He had never seen Yang Jian before, and the one who secretly helped Erlang Shen Zhenjun Yang Jian was this second ancestral dragon born in the world, this Yin Tianzi.
"Rest assured, fellow Daoist, I will definitely go to Mount Ling a month from now to discuss the Dao with the Buddha Tathagata," Luo De said.
Maitreya Buddha nodded to Rhodes, then transformed into a stone statue and disappeared. He never mentioned his disciple Huang Mei from beginning to end, because judging from the move Rhodes demonstrated...
His disciple was doomed, and this traitor had committed far too many evil deeds. Maitreya Buddha no longer wished to protect him, so he decided to let him turn to ashes and vanish.
"Is this the most powerful being in this world? His strength is indeed not to be underestimated!" Azeroth said with a heavy expression as he watched the departing Future Buddha.
This future Buddha's energy level is in no way inferior to that of an ordinary Titan, and is comparable to that of Rhodes now.
“No, no, no, he’s not among the most powerful people in this world. There’s a level above him, but I’ll be there soon,” Rhodes said.
After arriving in this world, due to the power of the God of Death, he easily obtained the title of the King of the Underworld, which is why Rhodes was fearless and dared to face Maitreya Buddha.
Moreover, since he obtained the throne and gained the highest authority in this world, the Yin Emperor has been able to manipulate the deaths of the celestial beings in the Heavenly Court.
Even the Book of Life and Death of the Southern Dipper, which records the lives of all the celestial beings in Heaven, is now in his hands, while the one in the Underworld has become a useless copy. (To clarify, the Book of Life and Death of the Southern Dipper is a book of life and death that appears in the original Journey to the West, recording the lives and deaths of immortals. The life and death of the Jing River Dragon King is recorded in the Book of Life and Death of the Southern Dipper.)
At this moment, Ma Tianba felt incomparably happy. He never expected that the person who was willing to take him in was the legendary second Ancestral Dragon, the legendary Yin Emperor. What an honorable status this was!
No, no, I have to say some nice things to this person. Maybe if he's happy, he'll free Zhao Wei's general from the brink of death. In the face of the one who controls the true power of death, what are peaches of immortality, ginseng fruits, or heavenly nectar? They're all no match for that.
This was none other than the Heavenly Emperor Yin Tianzi, who truly controlled life and death. Kang Jinlong, standing to the side, was shocked and full of surprise. He never expected that this person would be the second Ancestral Dragon in the world.
Was it the legendary "Underworld Emperor" whose throne had been vacant for so long? He had indeed encountered great fortune.
Even the two tigers that had been taken as mounts were excited, thinking they were following a big shot!
Even the Great Sage Yellow Wind was overjoyed. In terms of status, the Underworld Emperor was on par with the Buddha and the Jade Emperor!
At this moment, the sounds of fighting kept coming from the Little Thunderclap Temple. Sun Wukong, carrying his iron cudgel, fought his way into the Thunderclap Temple with Zhu Bajie.
All the evil monks, the undead, the zombies, and the demons were no match for Sun Wukong; they were all killed by him wielding his iron cudgel.
While passing by the Pagoda, Sun Wukong saw an old friend, Prince Zhang. Prince Zhang had helped him when he was fighting against the Yellow-Eyebrowed Buddha, and he was accompanied by four divine generals.
But the other party had already blinded his ears and eyes, so he couldn't hear anymore.
“Brother Monkey, this little Prince Zhang is pitiful. His life is almost over. Let’s send him to the Great God Wutian. He will surely be able to cure him. It will not have been in vain that he helped us back then,” Pigsy said.
Those deities who helped them back then have mostly met with bad ends, and it is precisely for this reason that Pigsy is determined to completely rebel against Mount Ling and come to resurrect his senior brother.
"This young Prince Zhang is a kind and benevolent man. After I, Old Sun, deal with that old man with the yellow eyebrows, I'll take him to the Great God Wutian for treatment." Sun
After Wukong finished speaking, he and Zhu Bajie left the cell where Prince Zhang was imprisoned, and along the way they eliminated four disciples of Huang Mei.
"This second brother is really shameless. He is neither empty, nor pure, nor white, nor can he. Isn't that exactly what Wukong, Wuneng, and Wujing are like?"
"The last one isn't white, so it should correspond to the White Dragon, right?" Pigsy said.
Master has disappeared, and his former fellow disciples have scattered. Wujing has peacefully become a Bodhisattva, and so has the White Dragon, who has become a Bodhisattva of the Dragon Division among the Eight Legions.
When he made up his mind to come and save his senior brother, he didn't inform them. Death is unpredictable, and he didn't want to implicate innocent people. If they wanted to, they would come; if they didn't, it would be useless to call them.
The two brothers soon arrived at the main hall of the Great Thunderclap Temple and saw the old Buddha with yellow eyebrows.
"Why not worship the future Buddha?" At this moment, the Yellow-Eyebrowed Buddha also returned to his original form. He dreamed of becoming his master, Maitreya Buddha, and the future Buddha of Buddhism.
"Pah! You old yellow-browed demon, don't you even take a piss? Look at yourself! You think you're the future Buddha?" Pigsy said with a mocking expression, carrying his rake on his shoulder.
“Old man with yellow eyebrows, hundreds of years have passed, yet you haven’t made any progress. On the contrary, you’ve become more and more backward. Before, you wanted to replace Buddha, but now you want to replace your master,” Sun Wukong said.
If this old monk weren't a mad and eccentric sorcerer, then recruiting him into one's own camp would be a good choice. Unfortunately, this guy is a complete and utterly eccentric monk, and the kind with mental problems at that.
"Hahaha! You're wrong, you're all wrong. What's the point of believing in Tathagata? I'd rather do it myself. Not only will I become the future Buddha, but I will also replace Tathagata Buddha!" the Yellow-Eyebrowed Buddha shouted.
"Pah! You think you can do that? If you really have the guts, then go and cause trouble at Mount Ling like my senior brother did. Then I might admire you and give you a second glance." Pigsy mocked.
"Hmph! Enough talk, just watch my Acquired Human Seed Bag." The Yellow-Eyebrowed Buddha smiled and reached behind his back, but found nothing. The Acquired Human Seed Bag that was originally hanging at his waist had disappeared without him noticing.
What he didn't know was that a disciple who had been abandoned by his master was no longer qualified to use magic weapons. His magic weapons had long been taken away by Maitreya Buddha, and he himself hadn't even realized it.
"Hahaha! Your bag might have been stolen, you old man with yellow eyebrows! Ah! Take this, take this blow from my old Sun!" Sun Wukong sneered, brandishing his iron cudgel as he leaped into the air and swung it down at the old man with yellow eyebrows.
Chapter 424 Killing Huang Mei with a Stick, an Old Friend from the Spider Cave
Without his magic weapon, Huang Mei was like a tiger without teeth. The Acquired Human General Agent was one of Huang Mei Lao Fo's proudest magic weapons.
He used this treasure to subdue many powerful demons, but for some reason, it was suddenly stolen.
"Damn it! You damned monkey must have stolen my magic weapon! Return it to me at once!" The Yellow-Eyebrowed Buddha said through gritted teeth as he parried attacks from Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie.
It must be those damned monkey and that stinking pig who teamed up to steal my magic weapon. No wonder they dared to come looking for me with such impunity. If I had the Acquired Human Seed Bag, I could easily deal with those two in front of me.
"You old man, your magic is quite good, but your martial arts haven't improved at all. So many years have passed, and you're still as bad as ever."
Sun Wukong's figure kept changing, and with a flourish of his iron cudgel, he slammed it hard onto the head of the Yellow-Eyebrowed Buddha, making the old man wince.
Whether you are a demon, an immortal, or a Buddha, you also need to learn martial arts in addition to magic.
In terms of martial arts, Sun Wukong can be said to be among the top people in the Three Realms, with only talents like Erlang Shen Yang Jian, Nezha, and the Bull Demon King being able to match him.
If the Yellow-Eyebrowed Buddha could use magic and magical treasures, Sun Wukong might still be somewhat wary of him. But with his magic broken and his magical treasures taken away...
This fellow's martial arts skills can only be described as mediocre, even inferior to his disciple, the monk who was kneeling in the snow with his hands bound. Sun Wukong, however, greatly admired his martial arts skills.
He's even better than his master.
