My Online Girlfriend Is The Nine Heaven Divine Phoenix Novel - Chapter 299
Chapter 299: Showdown (2)
If the two of them entered by mistake and could not withstand the attack of the formation, he would immediately stop the formation.
It was a pity that these two were like Kong Xuan, they would not even notice it when they entered the formation.
They were not ordinary people!
However, Lu Ping had already guessed it in his heart, so he did not show it on his face.
He stood up and said with a smile, “Uncle Sun, Mr. Zhu, I have missed you guys so much these past two days. Sit down, sit down, let’s eat.”
Bajie looked at the dishes on the table and his eyes lit up. He immediately sat down and picked up his chopsticks to take a bite.
“Delicious!”
As he spoke, he was about to start feasting on the food!
“You better watch out. You can eat at most half of a dish!” Before Lu Ping could say anything, Sun Wukong had already set a standard for Bajie.
Bajie was a little displeased. “What are you doing?!”
…
Sun Wukong sneered. “Since you have already eaten, what are we going to eat?”
Bajie pouted but did not dare retort.
The three of them sat down. Lu Ping took out the good wine that he had prepared earlier and said with a smile, “This is my wife’s treasured wine. It tastes extremely good.”
As he said that, he poured it into cups for the two of them.
The three of them began to eat and chat. With Sun Wukong’s reminder, Bajie restrained himself and did not use the same trick that he had used in the restaurant. Otherwise, even though Lu Ping had eaten quite a lot, he probably would not have been able to last long.
As they chatted, this topic was brought up by Lu Ping on the Journey to the West.
“Uncle Sun, the last time I heard you talking about the Journey to the West, I went back to take a look again. You said that the children and Sun Wukong who had stolen treasures and descended to the mortal world were very difficult to deal with on this Journey to the West. Why did no one deal with him when he caused a ruckus in the Heavenly Palace? Putting everything else aside, the Diamond Chakram can be used to collect weapons. Why didn’t he use it? The moment the weapon is retrieved, half of Sun Wukong’s means will be wasted.”
Before Sun Wukong could reply, Zhu Bajie said as he ate, “What else can it be? It’s just a waste of effort.”
“Excuse me?!” Sun Wukong retorted unhappily. He looked at Lu Ping and shook his head, “The Diamond Chakram is an item of the old lord after all. He doesn’t wish to get involved in the matters of the Heavenly Court.”
“Hehe.” Zhu Bajie laughed.
Sun Wukong immediately glared at him.
Seeing Sun Wukong’s attitude, Lu Ping felt even more amused.
It was a given that he did not put in any effort.
However, if this matter was brought up, Sun Wukong’s most praiseworthy deeds could not be said.
Lu Ping saw that Sun Wukong was unwilling to say more and laughed in his heart. He then looked at Bajie and said, “Mr. Zhu, what do you think the Pig’s combat strength is in the Heavenly Court?”
Zhu Bajie rolled his eyes and said, “Who knows? The waters of the Heavenly Court are deep. Those who don’t look powerful will give you a fright when they fight. Usually, they fight and kill, and those who lead the troops may not be very strong.”
Contrary to Lu Ping’s expectations, this person seemed to have a very clear understanding of him.
Lu Ping narrowed his eyes. He naturally knew that Zhu Bajie was right.
The Heaven’s combat strength was not based on whether one was a general of the Heaven’s court.
Lu Ping smiled as he looked at Sun Wukong. He thought to himself, ‘How can I make him bleed a little to raise Mengyao’s cultivation?’
At that moment, the door was pushed open.
Kong Xuan smiled as he entered. “The two of you have lived in vain for so many years. You don’t even know that a junior has seen through your identities.”
Lu Ping was taken aback. He was just thinking of setting a trap for Sun Wukong when Kong Xuan came in and exposed him.
As they spoke, Kong Xuan sat at the table and picked up a pair of chopsticks. He said with a smile, “Kid, you should have guessed my identity by now. Why are you pretending to be ignorant from here? Is it fun?”
Lu Ping was helpless. This person did not know what he was thinking, so it was normal for him to have such a question.
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong immediately understood. He looked at Lu Ping and said with a smile, “Good lad, I was wondering why your questions today were getting more and more strange. So, you have guessed our identities.”
Having said that, Lu Ping nodded and decided to get straight to the point, he said, “It’s like this. Mr. Kong has already told me his purpose. However, I’m not sure yet, so I’ve called the two of you here. Firstly, I want to know the true identities of the two of you. Secondly, I want to know if Cui Mengyao has any way to quickly become stronger?”
“Haha, I see.”
Sun Wukong laughed, “Obviously, you guessed it right. I’m Sun Wukong, and Zhu Bajie is actually Zhu Wuneng.”
As he spoke, he sighed faintly, he said, “Our goals are similar to Kong Xuan’s. We also want to borrow your hands to nurture a disciple as a backup plan. As for the child you mentioned, there’s actually no good way. But didn’t I already give you the Ksitigarbha’s Original Wish Transcendence? You can teach this to that little girl, and then let her read Buddhist scriptures and cultivate Buddhist mantras. She can cross over more souls and obtain Heaven and Earth merit. If that’s the case, her cultivation speed will be much faster.”
Lu Ping frowned and said, “Is this cultivation technique so complicated?”
Sun Wukong laughed and said, “Buddhist mantras are mostly like this. It’s actually much harder to cultivate than Daoist mantras. Otherwise, why are there so many people who wish to obtain the approval of the Heavenly Axiom?”
Bajie also said, “That’s true. Compared to the Celestial Sect of Wonders, the Western sect’s disadvantage is obvious. This is why the Western sect has very few experts.”
When Lu Ping heard this, he was stunned.
He recalled carefully and realized that it was indeed so.
Among the second-generation disciples of the Western sect, there were almost no outstanding people.
At the same time, those who abandoned their orthodoxy and joined the Western sect were all in high positions.
Treasure, Lantern, Ci Hang, Wen Shu, Pu Xian…
These familiar powerhouses were the current middle-class people of the Western sect. They could even control the real power of the Western sect.
Kong Xuan and Sun Wukong were among them.
“Why is that?” Lu Ping was puzzled.
Kong Xuan explained with a smile, “It depends on the means of becoming a saint. I suggest that we find a private place to talk about it. The topic is a little sensitive.”
Sun Wukong shook his head and said, “What difference does it make where we go?”
“Of course it’s different!”
As Kong Xuan said that, he waved his sleeve and all the dishes, including the tables and chairs, disappeared.
When Sun Wukong saw this, he did not say anything else.
The four of them arrived in front of the Sun Flame Grand Hall.
As they stepped into the hall, Sun Wukong instantly sensed that something was different.
He could not help but say, “This place is so strange!”
Kong Xuan smiled and said, “Of course it’s strange! This kid has many secrets.”
As he spoke, he used another trick. The tables and chairs were rearranged and left untouched.
After the four of them sat down, Kong Xuan said, “This place is separated from the outside world. It can transcend the restrictions of the Heavenly Dao. Here, no matter what you do or say, you don’t have to worry about being sensed by anyone!”
Zhu Bajie exclaimed, “Is that true?”
“Of course it’s true!” Sun Wukong rolled his eyes.
As he said this, Zhu Bajie was overjoyed. He opened his mouth and said angrily, “That b*stard Tathagata actually gave me a f*cking envoy to cleanse the altar. It’s all thanks to me that I spent so much effort to get the scriptures from the West.”
Kong Xuan laughed coldly, “Even though you’re from the Celestial Sect of Wonders, your seniority isn’t high and your cultivation isn’t high. How can he give you a high position? And do you think that he doesn’t know that you have no feelings for the Western sect? Look at Long Ma and the Sand Monk. If you are honest along the way, he might give you the position of Arhat too.”
These words were not wrong. Zhu Bajie was originally from the Celestial sect.
Bajie did not dare to disobey and just curled his lips.
Kong Xuan looked at Lu Ping and laughed, “Vairocana the Great Sun is the avatar of Zhun Ti. During the Battle of Ascension, he roped in a lot of experts. Among the second generation of the Western sect, there is no one who can control the situation. He can only control it himself.”
Sun Wukong said helplessly, “That fellow is indeed very strong, even if he is just an incarnation.”
Kong Xuan changed the topic. “Let’s return to the cultivation technique. This cultivation technique has to be discussed through the means of becoming a saint. Nuwa becoming a saint is the merit of creating a human. As for the rest of the saints, they either killed three corpses or established a cult to become saints. Only Zhun Ti and Sun Wukong can be brought in. This is a grand wish to become a saint. You have to know that this grand wish is not given out randomly. It must be approved by the Heavenly Dao and must be carried out. Therefore, the Western cultivation techniques are related to the Buddhist dharma. The ultimate achievement of practicing the Western cultivation techniques is related to the Buddhist dharma cultivation base, including the way one acts. The Buddhist dharma is benevolent and leads all living beings. To practice the Buddhist cultivation techniques, one needs to use the Buddhist dharma as the foundation and obtain the approval of the Heavenly Dao. Only in this way can one’s cultivation base advance continuously and attain the Great Dao.”
At this point, Kong Xuan sighed and said, “But that’s the difficult part.”
