Before the ancient Buddha passed away, he was the only great master in the Three Realms who knew the secret of the relics.

After the black lotus took root and Wutian was born, he had a premonition that a catastrophe was coming, so he told his friend Zhenyuan Daxian the secret of the seventeen relics.

After the death of the ancient Buddha, Zhenyuan Daxian became the sole guardian of the secret of the relics.

However, although there is no second person in the Three Realms who knows the secret of the relic, in the process of Sun Wukong's search for the relic, several bigwigs speculated that the ancient Buddha of the burning lamp told the secret of the relic to Zhenyuan Daxian.

For example, lawlessness.

"No wonder Rulai values Sun Wukong so much, it turns out that he was ready to sacrifice him from the beginning. ”

Wutian said with mockery, "Our Buddha who has cultivated good fortune in his previous life, I'm afraid most of it should be on his disciples, and they are still so desperate one by one." ”

Zhen Yuanzi had already calmed down and said: "The reason why the Buddha is willing to follow the Buddha is not because of his high status, not because he is a leader and a leader, but because everyone agrees with his philosophy and is like-minded, the Buddha has a large number of followers, but he has never regarded them as subordinates, which is the reason why you can never defeat the Buddha." ”

Wutian smiled: "Heaven is constant, I naturally dare not say that I will always be the winner, but if it is not the same, it will not be able to defeat me forever?"

"The Buddha can't escape the certainty, and neither can you. ”

"Before today, you said this, I may think twice, after today, things will be different, since I already know that Wukong is the seventeenth relic, how can I let you collect all the relics as you wish to welcome back Rulai?"

Zhen Yuanzi's face changed slightly, and he asked, "You killed Wukong?"

Wutian smiled and said, "How come, Wukong is one of the few cultivators in the Three Realms who can make me look at him differently, if he is willing to change his evil and return to the right, abandon the darkness and turn to the light, I will be very happy to accept him, and let him take the place of the Ancient Buddha of the Burning Lamp." ”

"So you can never compare to the Buddha, and the Buddha will not lure anyone, let you practice, let you choose your own path, and show you the maze. ”

Zhen Yuanzi said calmly: "The team that relies on interests will eventually fall apart because of interests, for example, you only have subordinates who are keen on benefits or afraid of your power, and there will be no followers who agree with your ideas. ”

"Zhen Yuanzi, you are not a member of Buddhism, how did you also learn the hypocritical tricks of Rulai?"

"In the eyes of the demons, isn't justice hypocrisy?"

Wutian smiled and said, "I won't argue with you today, now that I have mastered the secret of the relic, let Rulai wait for another thirty-three years, hahaha......"

With a burst of laughter, Wutian's form slowly disappeared and finally returned to nothingness, as if it had never appeared.

Zhen Yuanzi hurriedly found Wang Dong, Tang Seng and others, and synchronized the news with them.

"He actually changed into Wukong's appearance and hid in the furnace, and it seems that he is determined to obtain the secret of the relic. Tang Seng said.

Wang Dong listened to Zhen Yuanzi's narration, didn't say a word, and his heart turned upside down: "How is the development of the story different from the story he has seen before?

Wang Dong suddenly realized the fact that if the years he lived on Earth were also part of the game, then there was no reason for Wutian not to know the story he had read, so he did something to the story?

"After he knows that Wukong is the seventeenth relic boneless relic, he doesn't know how to deal with Wukong?"

Zhen Yuanzi said: "I asked him, listening to his tone, he doesn't plan to kill Wukong for the time being, if my expectations are correct, he should suppress Wukong in a place where he can never turn over, so that he will never be able to collect seventeen relics to deal with himself." ”

"A place where you can't turn over forever?" Tang Seng repeated, "Nine Shadows?"

Wang shook his head and analyzed: "First of all, Wutian will not kill Wukong for the time being, not because he has good thoughts about Wukong in his heart, but because he is worried that once he kills Wukong, it will indirectly contribute to the combination of the seventeen relics, and the variables are too great;

Secondly, if he wants to demote Wukong to the Nine Shadows, he must cramp Wukong's bones and destroy his soul, which may also force Wukong to die and turn into bones, and he will not take this risk;

In the end, although Wutian originated from the Nine Shadows, his true base was the Dark Abyss, where he possessed invincible power and absolute control. ”

Zhen Yuanzi agreed: "The abyss of darkness has gathered the grievances and anger of the creatures and ghosts of the Three Realms for hundreds of millions of years, nourishing many ancient trolls, although they will never be able to get out of the abyss of darkness, but they have extremely powerful power in it, Wutian handed over Wukong to them to take care of, supplemented by the Black Lotus Array, but I am afraid that the Buddha will return and there is nothing to do." ”

When everyone heard this, their faces were worried.

Yang Jian said: "But if you don't save Wukong, how can you welcome back the Buddha?"

Wang Dong suddenly continued: "But saving Wukong and welcoming back the Buddha means that we will lose Wukong at the same time......"

The crowd fell silent again.

Especially Tang Seng, with a pained look on his face.

He is the second disciple of the Buddha, and his heart is devout to the Buddha and his beliefs are noble, but the relationship between him and Wukong is also extraordinary.

Wang Dong observed everyone's expressions one by one, and said: "You don't have to be too pessimistic, Wukong has already jumped out of the Three Realms and is not in the Five Elements, even if he turns into a boneless relic and gathers the power of seventeen relics to welcome back the Buddha, it may not necessarily be that there will be no return." ”

Tang Seng hurriedly asked, "Where did the great monk say this?"

Wang said: "I don't know if you still remember that one of the seventeen relics is a reincarnation relic, which is the reincarnation of the ancient Buddha, and after Wukong gathers seventeen relics to welcome back the Buddha, as long as the gods, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas of the Three Realms are united in calling Wukong, and the mana of all the Buddhas and immortals is condensed, maybe it can go against the way of heaven and stimulate the power of reincarnation and save Wukong." ”

Although the king of Jizo has not become a Buddha, his mana and supernatural cultivation have long surpassed the Buddha's fruit, and the enlightenment of Buddhism is even higher and deeper, and it cannot be speculated.

"Anyway, save Goku first. ”

Tang Seng said: "Just a few of us, if we want to force our way into the dark abyss to save people, I am afraid that there are some difficulties, before saving Wukong, we must first rescue the saints of the underworld......"

"That's right, as long as you gather the power of the gods and Buddhas in the sky, the dark abyss can also break through. ”

"But if we can think of this, Wutian can naturally think of it, but I am afraid that he will strengthen the guard of the underworld. ”

Wang Dong said: "It's okay, as long as you cover me to enter the underworld, I have my own way to rescue the gods, Buddhas, and immortals from inside." ”

"Alright, then without further ado, let's quickly set off for the underworld. ”

Everyone said they would go, and each used their magical powers, and followed the passage under the Huaguo Mountain Bridge all the way down to the underworld.

As expected, Wutian calculated that they might come to rescue a kind of immortal Buddha, strengthened the guards, doubled the troops, and strengthened the magic circle.

Tang Seng, Yang Jian and others attacked head-on as planned, and fought with countless demon soldiers and demon generals.

And Wang Dong once again took advantage of the home advantage, turned into black smoke, passed through the heavy magic circle, floated into the underworld, and came to the place where the gods and Buddhas were imprisoned.

He did not immediately show up to meet the gods, Buddhas, and Immortal Saints, but took the Jade Emperor away and took him to the Nine Halls of Equality and King Hall.

This temple was originally the residence of the King of Equality, and was in charge of the hell of Abi.

"The poor monk is rude, and I hope that the Jade Emperor will not be surprised. Wang Dong showed his figure and saluted the Jade Emperor.

"It's okay, it's okay, I didn't expect it to be a friend of the Jizo Dao. The Jade Emperor said happily, "How do you escape the clutches of lawlessness?"

"Wutian probably didn't take the poor monk in his eyes and didn't attack me. Wang Dong looked at the Jade Emperor as he spoke.

The latter looked calm.

"Wukong has been imprisoned in the abyss of darkness by Wutian, and has been sent to a place of no return. ”

Wang Dong said casually: "Because Wutian knows the secret that he is the seventeenth relic." ”

The Jade Emperor said: "Seventeen relics?"

Wang Dong simply told the Jade Emperor about the seventeen relics, and the Jade Emperor was shocked when he heard it, and said, "How is that good?"

"Rescue the Monkey King and welcome back the Buddha. ”

"How to rescue? The dark abyss is also a forbidden place for gods and Buddhas. ”

Wang Dong said: "If Your Majesty leads the Heavenly Gods and Buddhas, and then the Dao Ancestor helps from the side, the dark abyss will not be a problem." ”

"That being said, I'm not sure I'm going to be able to protect myself right now. The Jade Emperor sighed.

Wang Dong laughed, did not answer immediately, and after a while, said, "Actually, the secret of the relics is a lie. ”

"What?!" the Jade Emperor was stunned.

"The statement that the seventeen relics gathered to welcome back the Buddha is false. Wang Dongmian did not change his face and said: "That is a test left by my Buddha." ”

"What test?"

"The test of the ancient Buddha of the burning lamp, the test of the Buddha who defeated the Buddha in the fight, and the test of the Buddha of the gods. ”

"If you have something to say, you might as well say it directly. ”

"At the end of the 33-year period, even if we don't have 17 relics, my Buddha will return as scheduled. ”

The Jade Emperor was silent, although he was not wearing a robe or a crown at this time, but between the silence, he had the power of his superior.

Wang Dong continued: "After a long period of time, the ancient Buddha of the lamp voluntarily turned into a relic, which can be described as great benevolence and bravery, and the Buddha will not flinch when he fights to defeat him. ”

The Jade Emperor said meaningfully: "It turns out that the Buddha's goal is not just to be heavenless. ”

Wang Dong said: "The goal of Wutian is not only the Buddha, the catastrophe of the Three Realms, how can there be bystanders?"

The Jade Emperor sneered inexplicably, looked at Wang Dong, and asked, "Why are you talking to me about this?"

Wang said: "I hope that after this battle, hell will be emptied. ”

The Jade Emperor suddenly understood that the great wish of the Bodhisattva of the King of the Earth was: Hell is not empty, he will not become a Buddha, he hopes that Hell is empty, and he is naturally preparing to be promoted to the Buddhahood.

"It's almost time. ”

The Jade Emperor turned around and took a step forward, and his whole body suddenly became golden, and the next moment, the crown was added, and the momentum filled the underworld, shocking the heavens and the earth.

That is the Holy Great Merciful One, the Jade Emperor, the Great Heavenly Venerable, the Xuanqiong High God!

Wang Dong said at the right time: "I have seen the Jade Emperor Great Heavenly Venerable. ”

The Jade Emperor bowed slightly, glanced back at Wang Dong, and took another step forward, already in the place where the gods and Buddhas were imprisoned.

"Ladies and gentlemen, leave this place with me. ”

After that, with a wave of his sleeves, the black lotus on the top of the heads of the gods, Buddhas, and immortals all collapsed, and the three flowers reunited at the top.

The gods and Buddhas said: "Emperor Xie Yu." ”

Subsequently, the Heavenly God Buddha Immortal Saint followed the Jade Emperor out of the underworld.

The gods, Buddhas, immortals, and saints all exert their strength, how can the demon soldiers and demons be opponents, and they will be defeated immediately.

"All the Immortal Saints of the Three Realms obey the order!"

The Jade Emperor walked out of the underworld, stepped into the firmament, and issued an edict around the surroundings: "Quickly go to the South Heavenly Gate to assemble!"

The will of the Jade Emperor spread throughout the Three Realms in an instant.
