Chapter 3: The Heart of Seeking the Truth

On the desolate ancient road, a short shadow came in the distance, and it didn't take long to get closer. If you look closely, it is a snow-white kitten, the cat's body is no more than fifty centimeters long, and its eyes are as clear as water, bright as a mirror, full of mysterious colors, very attractive. The first impression of this cat is that it is strange, but I don't know where this cat came from and where it is going.

This cat is Yang Zhen who has crossed over from the 21st century, from the beginning of the crossing to the present, Yang Zhen has been living in this world for a month, although Yang Zhen has not yet determined whether this world is the world of "Journey to the West", but through this month's time, I am afraid that eight or nine are not far from ten.

Because Yang Zhen had seen the scene of the monster eating people with his own eyes, he saw that the monster turned from a half-human and half-beast form into a monster form, and then swallowed the family into his belly in one bite, and then left calmly with the demon wind.

Moreover, the humans of this world are no strangers to youkai, and although they are very afraid of youkai, this does not prevent them from making 'youkai' a topic of conversation.

When Yang Zhen was wandering around the human city, he heard people talking about topics such as 'where and where are there monsters making trouble', and sometimes the government would post notices to find some people with the Tao to come to subdue demons and subdue demons.

Although Yang Zhen really wanted to live in a city inhabited by humans, he had to flee from the human city for some reason.

In other words, sometimes it's not necessarily a good thing to be too cute. When Yang Zhen was discovered in the human city, there have always been people who want to capture Yang Zhen as a pet. Although Yang Zhen is only in the form of a cat now, Yang Zhen does not have the hobby of 'wanting to be raised', which is really terrifying.

After leaving the human city, Yang Zhen also suddenly remembered the oath he made at the beginning of the crossing - to cultivate as an adult.

Just like the demon that Yang Zhen saw before, although that demon was only in the form of a half-human and half-beast, it was much better than the current animal form anyway.

After determining the goal, Yang Zhen is about to take the first step to achieve the goal and learn from the teacher.

Although there are many pet skill books in the mall, there are no exercises that can be cultivated, so for Yang Zhen at this stage, the first step is to find a famous teacher to guide him.

When Yang Zhen first came, he was completely blind to this world, he didn't know anything, and he didn't know where to go if he wanted to apprentice. In the absence of a way, Yang Zhen can only travel around, as long as he encounters a fairy mountain with beautiful mountains and rivers, Yang Zhen will go up the mountain to find the legendary immortal, even if there is no immortal, there is a big demon.

In this way, a year has passed in a flash, and Yang Zhen doesn't know how far he has gone, only that he eats mountain beasts and wild fruits when he is hungry, and drinks spring water in the mountains when he is thirsty.

In the past year, Yang Zhen has had countless thoughts of wanting to give up, but Yang Zhen thought that when Sun Wukong asked Bodhi in "Journey to the West", he had been looking for more than ten years, and if he couldn't hold on for even a year, wouldn't he be as good as a monkey.

Moreover, those who have achieved success in cultivation are all people with great wisdom, great perseverance, and great opportunities. Wisdom and chance aside, if Yang Zhen doesn't even have perseverance, then what kind of cultivation is there to talk about, I'm afraid that those immortals will look down on themselves.

In this way, Yang Zhen slowly strengthened his desire to seek the truth, and no longer had that kind of urgency, but looked for his own opportunities with the mentality of 'playing'.

As he was walking, Yang Zhen faintly heard bursts of cries for help in the distance, and after listening carefully, it turned out that there were monsters attacking the human village again. In the past year, Yang Zhen often encounters such a situation, Yang Zhen found that the monsters here seem to be very rampant, such monsters eat people almost every day, but there have never been immortals to manage, occasionally some Taoist monks come to subdue demons, but they are often surrendered by those big demons.

Sometimes Yang Zhen suspects that this world is not the world of "Journey to the West" at all, and those Journey to the West conspiracy theories I saw on the Internet before seem to be very weak monsters in the Journey to the West, why are the monsters here so rampant, as if they have no scruples about killing people and setting fires.

Ran over quickly, and sure enough, I saw a monster with a tiger head and a human body killing people everywhere in the small village, and behind the tiger there were several strange-shaped demons responsible for carrying the corpse.

Although there are also young and middle-aged people in the village gathered together, fighting with the tiger demon with axes and shovels, but helplessly, the cultivation of the tiger demon is not weak, just a wave of the mace in his hand, those who dare to resist vomit blood and fly away, and then the tiger demon will take the mace and smash these people to death one by one, and then those little demons will rush up, carry these dead people, and prepare to carry them back to the cave to taste them carefully.

After Yang Zhen arrived, he saw such a scene.

"Meow!"

With a soft scream, Yang Zhen opened his mouth and spit out the three-flavor true fire, spraying towards the leading tiger demon.

Although the cultivation of the tiger demon is much higher than that of Yang Zhen, and even those little demons who resist corpses are higher than Yang Zhen in terms of cultivation, how can they resist the burning of the three flavors of true fire. Before the three flavors of true fire approached the body, the tiger demon's fur burned at an extremely hot temperature, and when the three true flames really came, the tiger demon didn't even have a chance to resist, and was burned to ashes.

And Yang Zhen, who was hiding in the shadows, controlled the three-flavor true fire to make a big turn in the air and burned towards those little demons.

If you don't use the three flavors of true fire, let alone the leading tiger demon, even if it is those little demons, Yang Zhen is not an opponent. But after all, the three-flavor true fire is an extremely high-level flame, and even Sun Wukong, who has the incorruptible body of King Kong, can't withstand it, let alone these little demons who are not in the stream.

When the three-flavor true fire that emanated was extinguished by Yang Zhen, the tiger demon and those little demons were all burned to death. Although Yang Zhen in this life can be regarded as a monster, Yang Zhen's essence is a human being, and at the time of enlightenment, the education he received was also the education of human beings, so although this life is the body of a cat, Yang Zhen still treats himself as a person. Therefore, whenever Yang Zhen saw the scene of monsters eating people, he would help out as much as he could. Maybe after Yang Zhen leaves, these people will be eaten by other monsters, but Yang Zhen still plans to do his best to give some help to these people who have no power to resist.

It was precisely because of this reason that Yang Zhen gave up the idea of finding some big demons to learn art. Yang Zhen believed that as long as he worked hard to find it, he would definitely be able to find an immortal who was willing to accept him.

After killing these monsters, Yang Zhen once again embarked on a journey to find immortals and ask questions.

Another five years have passed. In the past five years, Yang Zhen's heart to seek the Tao has become more firm, no matter how difficult things are, Yang Zhen has never thought of giving up, so along the way, Yang Zhen has unconsciously completed a transformation, completely out of the previous otaku mentality, and has become a cat dedicated to seeking the truth.
