Journey to the West: Man in heaven, working nine to five

#1784 - Blackmailing Xitian, Chu Hao takes action

Seeing that Guanyin was about to leave the Great Thunderclap Temple, Tathagata couldn't sit still any longer. He slightly raised his hand, and a surge of fierce Buddha's might descended upon her. A vast golden light surged from his body, transforming into a pillar of light that enveloped Guanyin's figure.

Guanyin, who originally wanted to escape, felt a tremor in her body. The terrifying Buddha's might surged from all directions, making her unable to move. When the pillar of light descended, her body involuntarily flew up, moving towards Tathagata.

With profound Buddhist teachings and heaven-defying strength, Tathagata completely suppressed Guanyin once he took action.

Looking at the struggling Guanyin, Tathagata frowned and said, "Venerable Guanyin, what exactly happened?"

"Tathagata, you little brat, release me! I want to fight you for three hundred rounds!" Guanyin shouted loudly, completely different from her previous demeanor, which truly shocked the other Buddhas.

Tathagata was also startled by these words. Looking at the impudent Guanyin, Tathagata deeply knew that Maitreya was becoming increasingly excessive, actually daring to let Guanyin become demonized.

"Yo, what's going on here? A fight?"

Suddenly, a playful voice came out. The Buddhas looked over and saw Chu Hao leisurely walking in, as if he had returned to his own home.

When Tathagata saw Chu Hao, his eyes flashed with fierce light, as if Chu Hao had just killed his entire family.

"Tathagata, what's with that look?" Chu Hao asked, sitting on an empty throne, completely unconcerned.

"Chu Hao, is Guanyin's demonization related to you?" Tathagata asked in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Chu Hao stood up abruptly. "Don't wrongly accuse a good person! I didn't do anything. Otherwise, should I swear to the Heavenly Dao?"

His expression was serious, causing Tathagata, who was originally full of anger, to soften his expression a lot.

After all, during this period, Chu Hao had repeatedly targeted Mount Spiritual. This matter inevitably made Tathagata suspicious.

The main reason was that once Xitian made a move, the Buddhas would subconsciously think that Chu Hao had done it.

At this time, Chu Hao continued, "I discovered that Guanyin had fallen for the demonic path's scheme, so I rushed here non-stop to tell you. It seems it was still too late."

He looked at the bound Guanyin and the bloody Diting, feeling very helpless.

"Since that's the case, then you can leave." A Buddha looked at Chu Hao putting a medicinal pill into his mouth and said in a low voice.

"Don't be in such a hurry. Maybe you'll still need my help," Chu Hao said indifferently.

Tathagata ignored him, only looking at Guanyin and Diting. Suddenly, he raised his hand, and endless Buddha light emerged from his palm. He gently patted the two of them, and instantly the Buddha light shone brightly. Within the dazzling Buddha light, a vast and holy aura emerged, enveloping Guanyin and Diting.

The holy Buddha light immediately entered their bodies, beginning to dispel the demonic energy.

Soon, Guanyin and Diting gradually calmed down, which delighted the Buddhas.

Ah!

However, in the next second, Guanyin and Diting suddenly had drastic changes in their expressions, revealing extremely painful expressions. They struggled desperately, letting out piercing screams.

This scene startled the Buddhas, and Tathagata's expression sank even more. He once again probed with Buddha light, continuing to purify the demonic energy in their bodies.

However, the demonic energy was deeply rooted. The entering holy aura collided with it, stirring up a fierce power. Under that power, even a Quasi-Sage couldn't withstand it. If this continued, Guanyin and Diting might not be able to hold on until the demonic energy disappeared, and their internal organs would be shattered by the two forces.

Although this wouldn't lead to their fall, it would still take many years to return to their peak.

Now, Guanyin has important matters to attend to and is also responsible for the Journey to the West tribulation. If something happens at this critical juncture, it's hard to guarantee that the subsequent tribulations can proceed smoothly.

Tathagata retracted his right hand, taking back the Buddha light. Only then did Guanyin and Diting's expressions improve a lot.

At this time, Tathagata looked at Chu Hao. "Venerable Guanyin has a strong demonic energy in her body, and it's very difficult to eradicate it unless there is a supreme treasure that can absorb the demonic energy."

As he said that, he was about to leave.

Tathagata naturally wouldn't allow it, and immediately said, "Jail God Chu Hao, there are many misunderstandings in this matter. Please help with Venerable Guanyin's matter."

For the sake of the Journey to the West tribulation, Tathagata had no choice but to put down his pride, truly being forced into a corner.

Seeing this, a smile flashed across Chu Hao's lips. With his hands behind his back, he walked to Tathagata's front. "Tathagata, old man, it's not impossible for me to help."

"This seat is willing to offer 100,000 merits of divine water and ten acquired spiritual treasures," Tathagata said decisively, knowing what he meant.

Then Chu Hao shook his head. "I only want one thing."

"What?" the Buddha asked.

"A Buddha relic," Chu Hao said leisurely.

"What? How is that possible?" Before Tathagata could speak, a Buddha shouted loudly.

A Buddha relic is the most important essence of a Buddha. It condenses all the efforts of a Buddha and is a rare treasure.

In Mount Spiritual, every Buddha relic is extremely precious and extremely rare.

Now that Chu Hao opened his mouth and asked for this item, it naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of the Buddhas.

To this, Chu Hao clicked his tongue and said, "Don't be in a hurry to refuse. Think carefully, I have plenty of time."

Obviously, he was determined to get this thing.

Tathagata stared at Chu Hao, falling into deep thought.

After a long time, he spoke, "Alright, I can give you a Buddha relic, but you must remove the demonic energy from their bodies."

"Of course, leave it to me," Chu Hao said with a smile.

For the sake of the Journey to the West tribulation, Tathagata reluctantly took out a Buddha relic and sent it to Chu Hao's hands.

After putting away the Buddha relic, Chu Hao immediately took out the God-Slaying Spear.

The black spear exuding demonic energy made the Buddhas feel an extremely dangerous aura as soon as it appeared.

Chu Hao manipulated the God-Slaying Spear, placing it between the two of them, and then guided the demonic energy on the spear.

Instantly, the demonic energy erupted, heading towards their bodies.

Guanyin and Diting immediately opened their eyes, only feeling two strands of demonic energy echoing in their bodies, one of which was devouring the other.

Soon, the demonic energy emitted by the God-Slaying Spear domineeringly devoured the demonic energy in their bodies, and Chu Hao moved his mind to guide the demonic energy out.

Guanyin and Diting instantly felt as if their strength had been emptied, and they directly fainted.

"It's done. I've kept my promise," Chu Hao said, clapping his hands.

Seeing this, Tathagata sent a force into Guanyin and Diting's bodies until he was sure that there was no trace of demonic energy in their bodies before he felt relieved.
