Chapter 1211: Chapter 698

Zi Liyuan was only responsible for transcending the other party, while also receiving all of their inheritance, including cultivation level, and even their body.

For example, a certain female rabbit, feeling the vastness of Buddhist Law, wanted to join the Buddhist Sect, and was then packaged by Chen Sanzang to the Western Paradise.

Along the way, he roasted the rabbit’s head with a spicy flavor, and it was truly delicious beyond words.

Riding a little tiger, on this day, Chen Sanzang finally arrived at the border of the Great Qin Empire, outside Two Worlds Mountain.

Seeing the five bare peaks like fingers thrusting into the clouds, this guy couldn’t help but marvel at how amazing the Tathagata was; no wonder he was the former master brother of the Jie Sect.

“Old Xi, if I don’t go up the mountain to pay respects, can I forcefully break this seal and free Little Kongkong?”

Staring at the towering peaks, Chen Sanzang had no desire to climb, especially since Five Elements Mountain was barren; there was nothing up there, not even the thrill of seeking secrets or encountering ladies.

“If you completely transcend the Golden Cicada and inherit all his cultivation, you can forcefully break it.”

Old Xi, with a bit of exploration, discovered that Five Elements Mountain was connected to the earth’s veins, gathering the Five Elements of Heaven and Earth to form a shackle, plus the Buddha Seal left by Tathagata on the peak, which trapped Sun Wukong.

However, the seal wasn’t that strong; as long as there was a Daluo Realm expert, they could violently break it.

The reason no one freed Sun Wukong was because the Buddhist Sect stationed people here, and a Daluo Realm expert had no reason to offend the Buddhist Sect.

After all, the reputation of the Buddhist Sect’s two saints wasn’t too good. Whoever dared to stand up for the Monkey might end up being absorbed into the Western Teaching, as the erstwhile Jie Sect was the greatest victim, right?

“Damn it, do I really have to climb the mountain to pay respects to Tathagata? Hmph, today I pay him, but tomorrow, I’ll make him pay me back tenfold!”

Chen Sanzang cursed under his breath but didn’t immediately start climbing the mountain. Instead, he walked toward where Sun Wukong was imprisoned.

“Little Kongkong, your Heavenly Destiny teacher is here to recruit you?”

Holding a staff in one hand and a small wine gourd in the other, Chen Sanzang sat on the little tiger, drinking wine and chanting Buddhist hymns.

“Hey, a Drinking and Eating Monk today? Old Sun hasn’t had a drink in a long time, pour me a cup to quench my craving first.”

With people from the Great Qin Empire taking care of him, although Sun Wukong was trapped under Five Elements Mountain and couldn’t move, he wasn’t lacking in food or drink.

But wine was seldom delivered, mainly because the Monkey’s drinking manners weren’t great; when drunk, he loved to curse at the heavens, the earth, and the Buddha.

People from the Great Qin Empire also feared that the Buddha might take note of them in his little book, so when serving Sun Wukong, they rarely offered him wine.

“Hey, originally thought monkeys were lean and fit, how did Little Kongkong grow so plump?”

Chen Sanzang looked bizarrely at Sun Wukong, whose half shoulder and head were outside the Five Elements Mountain.

Having seen many versions of Brother Monkey, this was the first he had seen so rotund. The monkey face had turned into a round ball, full of comedic appeal.

“Every day it’s either eating or drinking or lying down sleeping for decades, can’t even exercise, how can I not get fat?”

Sun Wukong rolled his eyes, rubbed his now bun-like swollen face, looking helpless.

This damned Five Elements Mountain not only pressed down on him, rendering him immobile, but also sealed his mana.

Although just physical strength allowed him, with effort, to turn over and find a more comfortable position to lie in, it didn’t permit him to do any weight loss exercises, right?

If his mana weren’t sealed, he could refine this body fat with mana. But now, he could only obediently lie there.

He didn’t want to expose his already surged power lest Tathagata prepared for it.

The grudge of being oppressed under the Five Elements Mountain, Brother Monkey was determined to settle, at least to shave Tathagata bald with a stick.

Don’t people say that even an iron bar can be ground down to a needle?

Brother Monkey wanted to test if the Ocean Stabilizing Divine Needle, such an iron rod, could also be ground down to a needle on Tathagata’s bald head!

“So that’s it.”

Chen Sanzang nodded, and by chance, took out a Memory Stone from his storage ring. Activating it with a wisp of mana, he recorded the monkey’s current appearance from all angles.

Seeing Little Kongkong’s persona collapse was so rare; recording this blackmail material, for a thought in the cunning Chen Sanzang’s mind, was a must.

“Damn, you Drinking and Eating bald donkey, how did you bring a recording device? Quickly hand over the Memory Stone to Old Sun, or when I get free, you’ll be served with my staff!”

Doesn’t Old Sun deserve some dignity?

Watching the Drinking and Eating Monk swiftly put away the Memory Stone, Sun Wukong bared his teeth.

But his now bun-like round face had lost all traces of a fierce look.

When snarling aggressively, he actually gave off a foolishly cute and innocently dumb appearance.

“Little Kongkong, how about exchanging the Memory Stone for your chance at freedom?”

Forcing a chicken leg into the cursing monkey’s mouth, Chen Sanzang spoke lightly.

“What? Freedom, are you the Buddhist Sect’s arranged pilgrim monk?”

The monkey spoke muddled as he tore at the chicken leg.

Further, he burst with great strength, flipping like a salted fish, lying face-up, staring at the drinking monk.

“Amitabha, Little Kongkong, is that how you speak? How can a poor monk be compared to a bald donkey? You better rearrange your words, or else… hehe.”

Chen Sanzang sneered coldly, his eyes unintentionally flicked in the direction of the Five Elements Mountain’s summit.
