Tang Dynasty, Chang'an.

Emperor Li Shimin was frightened when he passed by the underworld. In order to save the hundreds of thousands of souls who died in his own hands, he ordered to convene Taoists and monks from all over the country to hold a land and water conference.

After a series of debates, the Buddhist monks won a great victory, and the monk who won the debate on behalf of Buddhism was a monk named Chen Xuanzang.

Chen Xuanzang presided over the Land and Water Conference, preached scriptures, and saved the souls of the Tang emperor. Li Shimin sat in the stands, listening to Chen Xuanzang's Dharma, with a look of deep thought on his face.

Yuan Tiangang on the side had a contemptuous smile on his face. He was a disciple of the Human Religion and one of the disciples of the Taoist sect responsible for spreading Buddhism to the east. He naturally knew the identity of Chen Xuanzang and even knew about Guanyin Bodhisattva frightening Li Shimin into the underworld.

“As I begin my journey to the west, I don’t know whether it’s a blessing or a curse.”

Yuan Tiangang sighed silently in his heart. The eight hundred years of Buddhism's prosperity were definitely not a good thing for the Tang Dynasty. However, such matters decided by heaven and Buddhism could only be followed by ordinary countries. Although Yuan Tiangang had a lot of skills

, but did not dare to intervene without authorization.

"Amitabha."

While Chen Xuanzang was reciting Buddhist scriptures, a ray of Buddha's light emerged. Guanyin Bodhisattva appeared with Hui'an Pilgrim and gave Xuanzang a cassock and a tin staff. At the same time, he told Li Shimin that there is a wonderful Mahayana method in the West, which can save the dead and save mortals.

Holy, let the emperor live forever.

When Li Shimin heard that Buddhism actually had a method that could make him live forever, he immediately decided to become a sworn sworn disciple with Chen Xuanzang and ordered Chen Xuanzang to go to the West on his behalf to seek the true Dharma.

As Li Shimin and Chen Xuanzang became sworn brothers, Chen Xuanzang's luck was connected to the fate of the Tang Dynasty. His luck soared, and his whole person seemed to be bathed in holy light, which was intimidating.

From then on, Li Shimin gave Chen Xuanzang the surname Tang and the Buddhist name Tripitaka. He set out from Chang'an and went to the West to worship Buddha and seek scriptures.

As Tang Sanzang stepped out of Chang'an, Heaven and Buddhism all became solemn. Especially the strong luck that left with Tang Sanzang alarmed countless monks and demons living in seclusion in the mountains.

"Taibai, go and summon Sun Wukong and tell him that the journey to the west has begun, and it is time for him to set off."

In heaven, the Jade Emperor called Taibai Jinxing and asked him to pass the decree to Wukong and start his journey to the west.

Taibai Jinxing took the order, stepped on the auspicious clouds, and headed towards the Great Sage Temple.

"Great Sage, I think you already know about Buddhism's plan to travel to the west. Please also ask the Great Sage to follow the Jade Emperor's will and protect the reincarnation of the golden cicada to go to the Western Paradise."

When Taibai Jinxing came to the Great Holy Monastery, he did not beat around the bush and directly stated his intention.

A smile appeared at the corner of Sun Wukong's mouth. Now, after practicing the method taught by the Lord of West Kunlun, he can condense his own merits into the Ruyi Golden Cudgel, and his own luck is in the Heaven-Jieting Cudgel taught by Lingbao Tianzun.

Under the influence of magic, you can also completely integrate with yourself.

Unless he is willing, Buddhism will have no way to take away any bit of his luck and merit.

"Old man, tell me, if I escort the golden cicada to the West, will I still be the Monkey King of Heaven?"

Sun Wukong asked with a smile. This was related to his final plan. He had to know whether Heaven would be on his side by then.

Taibai Jinxing was startled when he heard the words. He looked at Wukong with a smile on his face. He hesitated for a moment and said: "Your Majesty did not deprive the Great Sage of his immortal status, nor did he abolish the Great Sage's immortal position. No matter when, the Great Sage

, will always be the Monkey King of my heaven."

"Okay, old man, go back and tell the Jade Emperor that I, Old Sun, promise you to take good care of the golden cicada before heading to the west."

After receiving a satisfactory answer, Sun Wukong jumped up, stepped onto the somersault cloud, and flew towards where Tang Sanzang was.

"This stone monkey is so smart that he doesn't know whether it is a blessing or a curse."

Taibai Jinxing touched her white beard, looked at Wukong's leaving figure, sighed slightly, and a hint of worry flashed in her eyes.

As Wukong set off, Guanyin Bodhisattva, who had been observing secretly, breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, General Shulian in Liusha River and the Third Prince of Xihai in Yingchoujian were also notified and began to prepare to set off.

"The journey to the west begins, and Buddhism flourishes today."

Western Paradise, Daleiyin Temple in Lingshan.

There was an inexplicable look on Tathagata Buddha's face. He opened his palms, and in his palms, a golden lotus of merit was blooming, and it was constantly breathing Buddhist luck.

"Condensing the fortunes of the three major continents...gathering the merits of Buddhism..."

In Liangjie Mountain, a slightly embarrassed monk walked out of the jungle densely populated by mountain beasts with the help of a hunter. The hunter pointed ahead and said: "Holy monk, ahead is Liangjie Mountain. It is no longer the boundary of the Tang Dynasty. We

It’s inconvenient to send you off again. I hope you have a safe journey and can obtain the true scripture as soon as possible.”

The monk put his hands together, performed a Buddhist salute, straightened his robes, and said, "Amitabha, this poor monk should work day and night to obtain the true scripture as soon as possible."

The monk continued on his way, but the Orion behind him gradually changed, and finally turned into a mountain god wearing battle armor.

"The reincarnation of Jin Chanzi has left Nanzhan Buzhou."

The mountain god wrote a secret letter and sent it to heaven. Then, his body escaped into the mountain and disappeared.

"This is the Two Realms Mountain. I don't know when the golden cicada will arrive. Don't keep me waiting for too long."

At the same time, Wukong rode a somersault cloud to the Two Realms Mountain. He lay on a crooked willow tree with his calves crossed, waiting for Tang Sanzang's arrival.

"Sigh, the road to the west is far away, and I don't know how long it will take to return to my homeland."

Tang Sanzang, who had stepped out of the Tang Dynasty, was about to arrive at Liangjie Mountain. However, he had never traveled far since he was a child. At this time, he was a little confused. He stood there and sighed.

"This golden cicada has been reincarnated too many times, how come she has become a mortal like a mother-in-law?"

The fourth-level Gongcao and Wufang Jiedi who secretly protected Tang Sanzang looked at Tang Sanzang who was standing there sighing, and they all showed strange expressions. They all knew Jin Chanzi, and they all knew what kind of existence Jin Chanzi was.

, looking at the cowardly Tang Sanzang at this time, for a moment, he was completely unable to connect with the calm and self-confident Venerable Jin Chan in the past.

"Amitabha, you and I should not talk about Venerable Jin Chan casually. After he has learned the scriptures, he is destined to become a Buddha. If he knows that we are secretly talking about him, we may not be able to meet each other in the future."

Polo Jiedi touched the beads on his chest and said, their Five Directions Jiedi are not like the fourth-level meritorious officers who dare to complain about Tang Sanzang casually. Although the fourth-level meritorious officers are just wandering gods of heaven, they belong to heaven after all, and they
