Journey to the West: Please Call Me the White Bone Demon

Yun Zhao had already informed the White Bone Demon that a holy monk was coming here, and that eating his flesh would grant immortality and greatly enhance one's cultivation.

The only danger is that Tang Sanzang's disciples are highly skilled and powerful, and not someone that the White Bone Demon can handle.

However, he also told the White Bone Demon about a way to have a chance of eating Tang Sanzang's flesh.

The same old method.

However, Yun Zhao did not force her; the choice was up to Bai Gu Jing. The fact that she had been able to intercept her for so many days had already far exceeded his expectations.

Even if the other party is unwilling to take the risk, he will not have the slightest dissatisfaction.

But clearly, for a demon like the White Bone Demon, the temptation of immortality and great advancement in cultivation is hard to resist.

Even knowing the risk of being wiped out, she still felt she should give it a try.

Yun Zhao respected her choice.

As afternoon approached, Yun Zhao sensed a powerful and intense aura emanating from White Tiger Ridge. Even from a great distance, it made him feel as if his heart was about to stop beating.

At the same moment, the wisp of the White Bone Demon's natal spirit in his hand also vanished instantly.

"It seems we've followed the same old path as the original story and the last simulation."

The White Bone Demon's repeated provocations enraged the monkey. Even if he was to be tortured to death by the headband, he would drag the White Bone Demon down with him first.

Under that terrifying aura, it was difficult for any living being to survive.

Yun Zhao shook his head, feeling a slight pang of regret. He was also indebted to the White Bone Demon for buying him more time, and even though it wasn't her intention, objectively speaking, Yun Zhao still had to thank her.

"I'll let it go this time, but I'll definitely remember you if there are any benefits in future simulations."

Two more hours passed.

The long-lost voice finally appeared in his mind.

[Simulation complete. Interception time: 9 days, 11 hours, and 48 minutes. Reward: 19,000 years of cultivation, Minor Five Elements Divine Power, and Eye-Slaying Pearl Spiritual Treasure.]

[Ding! Achievement achieved: Banish the restless mind]

Yun Zhao's figure vanished instantly, returning to White Tiger Ridge once more, as if all that had happened before had vanished into thin air.

But he knew perfectly well that it was all true.

Especially the generous system rewards!

He was incredibly excited at that moment.

Leaving aside his nearly 20,000 years of cultivation, his supernatural powers and spiritual treasures alone are enough to drive ordinary cultivators mad.

The biggest gain this time was, of course, the achievement.

Having experienced it before, he knew very well that, compared to other things, achievement rewards were the most valuable.

[The interception area at the coordinate point has expanded by 200 miles from the current location; time anchor point rewinding...]

Two hundred li!

It's gotten so much bigger!

Before Yun Zhao could even process his joy, everything around him began to change wildly once again.

Even though his strength had improved significantly compared to before, everything that happened during the time rewind still gave him a mysterious feeling.

[Time travel successful. The main characters will arrive in 10 years. Please prepare accordingly.]

It seems long, but it's actually just a moment.

When everything calmed down, Yun Zhao looked around and noticed a significant change compared to the beginning.

Ten years is a long time; while it may not be enough to bring about dramatic changes, it is enough to alter many things.

For example, when I first transmigrated here, all I could see were towering trees reaching into the clouds, and the weeds growing by the stream were almost half the height of a person.

But now, those giant trees are obviously shorter, and the weeds are only sprouting small green tips.

"I really don't know what this cheat system is, it actually has such power!"

Yun Zhao sighed inwardly but didn't dwell on it too much.

It's impolite to pry into the reasons why everything you have is due to some kind of cheat code.

Besides, he doesn't seem to have the ability to delve into these matters right now.

The most important thing right now is to claim the system rewards.

The achievement rewards are self-evident; whether it's expanding the coordinate interception points or retracing the time anchor points, they are all pleasant surprises.

However, compared to his initial ecstasy, Yun Zhao's emotions were much more subdued.

After all, the first time is the most precious.

No matter how good the rewards are later, they can't compare to the novelty and mystery of the first time.

Fortunately, the coordinates of the interception point were expanded again, which was something Yun Zhao had suspected before.

However, the timeline has changed from 1 year to 10 years.

That's really serious.

If the things that can be done in the first 3 days are limited, then although a lot can be done in the following year, the final result still cannot be achieved.

Ten years is indeed enough time to accomplish a lot.

For ordinary people, how many decades does one have in a lifetime?

"However, the time the timeline is rewinding each time I receive an achievement reward is unexpected. Could it be that if this happens a few more times, it will rewind to hundreds of years ago?"

Yun Zhao couldn't help but think.

If that's the case, then things will get interesting. Maybe before Sun Wukong wreaks havoc in the Heavenly Palace, he can go and befriend him after achieving fame and success, and completely muddy the waters.

By then, it's uncertain whether there will even be a single monkey still trapped under the Five Elements Mountain, let alone extracting the scriptures.

It's funny to think about.

However, if you want to go back more than 500 years in time, who knows how many more achievements you would have to complete.

As Yun Zhao's initial enthusiasm gradually subsided, he realized that this was no simple task.

Achieving something is far more difficult than simply intercepting it.

After these two experiments, Yun Zhao seemed to have discovered the pattern.

To achieve this, one must be closely connected to the original storyline.

For example, the initial three battles with the White Bone Demon and the current banishment of the Monkey King are both events that actually happened in the original work.

Intercepting Tang Sanzang and his disciples while simultaneously allowing the original story to unfold is quite a challenge.

However, Yun Zhao also felt that it didn't necessarily have to be the exact same plot.

Last time, when I simulated myself, I made some adjustments to the White Bone Demon's storyline based on the original work, and I still achieved the achievement.

Yun Zhao felt that as long as it didn't deviate too much from the original direction, even a heavily modified storyline system could still be considered an achievement.

If that's the case, then there will be more room for maneuver.

But this is just his own guess. The actual situation will only be known through simulation experiments.

However...

Yun Zhao felt a little bitter. The trials and tribulations that the White Bone Demon went through before and after, such as the Wuzhuang Temple and the Four Sages' Test of Zen Mind, were not plots that could be easily altered. With his current strength, he had no chance of getting involved.

We can only wait and see.

Kui Mulang was no pushover when it came to the tribulation in Baoxiang Kingdom. He was able to fight Sun Wukong to a standstill and was considered one of the more formidable demons on the Journey to the West. Modifying this tribulation would not be an easy task.

After a moment's thought, Yun Zhao felt that anything was possible with human effort. Since he had a simulation system, he could simply start over if he failed, so why worry about the future?

With this thought, his mind cleared up, and he stopped worrying about it, continuing to look at the other rewards.
