Chapter 153 Guanyin’s Answer

Guanyin twisted her fingers and smiled: “I came to see you, the donor, because of the Buddha’s instruction. I have a great fortune to give you!”

Lin En asked calmly, “Please teach me, Master, where does destiny come from?”

Guanyin looked him up and down, and then continued, “When the Buddha came, he told me that the donor was neither human nor demon nor immortal nor devil. Now it seems that what he said was not quite right! I didn’t expect that the donor had shed his zombie body and cultivated into an immortal!”

However, she was not disappointed at all. Instead, the smile on her face became even more intense.

She is in charge of the journey to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures, and Lin En is the assistant that Tathagata asked her to win over, so naturally the stronger the other party is, the better.

“But the donor is originally a zombie. Even if he becomes an immortal, he will be rejected by the immortal world and cannot enter the heaven!” Guanyin smiled and said, “My Buddhist sect does not care about these things. If the donor helps me complete a great cause, there will be a chance for you to become a Buddha in the future!”

“What? Heaven also cares about academic qualifications?” Lin En was speechless, but he had the panel and didn’t care whether he joined Heaven or not. The main thing was to improve his strength and position the world’s capstan.

Thinking of this, he looked at Guanyin and asked with a smile: “I have just become an immortal not long ago, and I am not sure how the realms between immortals are divided. Can the Bodhisattva teach me?”

“Huh!” Guanyin looked at Lin En in surprise when she heard that. She thought that Lin En had inherited something, so he could become an immortal so quickly. She didn’t expect that he was actually a wild-minded person who knew nothing.

However, even if she didn’t tell Lin En about the division of realms between immortals, Lin En could figure it out with just a little inquiry, so she didn’t want to hide it, but smiled and said: “Since the donor has become an immortal, he should have comprehended a great way!”

Without waiting for Lin En to answer, she continued, “The division of the immortal realm is mainly determined by the degree of comprehension of the Great Dao. If one has comprehended 30% of a Great Dao, he can be called a Heavenly Immortal. If one has comprehended 70%, he is a True Immortal. If one has fully comprehended a Great Dao, he is a Golden Immortal!”

“The Great Dao is divided into the Innate Great Dao and the Acquired Great Dao. Generally speaking, the immortals who comprehend the Innate Great Dao are stronger than those who comprehend the Acquired Great Dao!”

“So that’s how it is…” After listening to Guanyin’s explanation, Lin En finally understood the realm between immortals. He was now comprehending both the innate power and the acquired poison at the same time, and the progress of both was about 30%. In terms of strength, he was considered to be the strongest among the immortals who had just become celestial beings.

“Besides, I can add more!”

……

Then, Guanyin took the initiative to introduce Lin En to those important figures outside the human world.

For example, the four Buddhas of Buddhism are Dipamkara Buddha, Medicine King Buddha, Amitabha Buddha, and Tathagata Buddha. The three Taoist ancestors are Taiqing Taoist, Yuqing Taoist, and Shangqing Taoist. The five emperors of heaven are Jade Emperor, Ziwei Emperor, Changsheng Emperor, Tianhuang Emperor, and Hou Tu Emperor. The three emperors of the human race are Fuxi, Shennong, and Xuanyuan.

These characters are all Golden Immortals who have fully comprehended the great Dao!

However, most of the Buddhist Bodhisattvas, Taoist disciples, and Heavenly Gods like Guanyin herself are true immortals who have comprehended more than 70% of the Great Dao.

As for the celestial beings, there are many of them, including the Arhats and Dharma protectors of Buddhism, the heavenly soldiers and generals of the heavenly court…

……

Lin En shook his head speechlessly: “In other words, if I go to heaven, I can become one of the 100,000 heavenly soldiers who encircle and suppress the Monkey King?”

After thinking for a while, he asked, “I wonder what the great cause that the Bodhisattva mentioned is?”

Hearing this, Guanyin knew that Lin En was already moved, and she couldn’t help but be overjoyed: “Donor, why don’t you follow me, we can talk about this in detail!”

Lynn nodded: “Okay!”

Soon, the two figures disappeared in the air. Except for the city below which had turned into grassland, it seemed that nothing had happened here.

……

Eighteen years later, at a market, a fat-headed and big-eared monk was educating his disciples: “…Xuanzang, killing with one sword is not the true principle of exorcism…”

As he spoke, he casually grabbed a poisonous snake from a tree and pulled out its fangs: “…You must remember our philosophy of exorcism. Why do demons become demons? It is because people’s hearts are corrupted by demonic nature. We must get rid of their demonic nature and retain their good nature. 300 nursery rhymes are to awaken people’s truth, goodness and beauty…Xuanzang, you won’t doubt our philosophy, right?”

The dishevelled young man shook his head blankly: “No, Master, I just doubt my ability. I could have saved more people!”

……

In the clouds above, Guanyin, dressed in tight clothes but with a dirty face, and Lin En, dressed in a black gown, stood together. They watched the conversation between the two people below quietly.

Before this, Xuanzang, the dishevelled young man who was the reincarnation of Jin Chan, went to the river to subdue the river monster transformed by Sha Wujing. He used “Three Hundred Children’s Songs” to try to awaken Zhen Shanmei who had drunk the medicine, but was beaten up by the river monster instead. It was only when an incarnation of Guanyin, disguised as Miss Duan, acted in time to seal the river monster.

Lin En was speechless and whispered, “Why go through so much trouble? Wouldn’t it be better if I could just take Xuanzang to the West to retrieve the scriptures?”

Eighteen years ago, he had agreed to Guanyin’s participation in the journey to obtain Buddhist scriptures. But he waited for eighteen years until Xuanzang came of age and the story began.

“It’s not that simple!” Miss Duan shook her head. “To obtain the scriptures, people in the world must want to obtain the true scriptures. If people in the world don’t want the true scriptures, then what is obtained is not the true scriptures!”

“So, Xuanzang, he must go through this series of things before he can become the person that the people of the world want, and go to the West to obtain the scriptures on behalf of the people of the world!”

Lynn shook his head and looked at his panel.

Celestial Fairy (686/1000).

Over the years, he added the remaining 675 origin points to his realm, and practiced hard on his own to push his progress to this point.

“Practicing on my own is still too slow. I still need to kill more to obtain origin points!” Lin En thought secretly.

At this time, below, after some kind words of comfort to Xuanzang, Tathagata finally coaxed Xuanzang into submission. He continued on his way to subdue the pig demon Zhu Wuneng.

Under the guidance of Guanyin, Lin En pressed down the clouds to pay homage to Tathagata.

“World Honored One!” Guanyin clasped her hands together.

Lin En also said respectfully: “Greetings, World Honored One!”

Tathagata smiled and looked at Lin En: “Donor, you have a deep Buddhist nature and are predestined with me!”

As he spoke, his eyes glanced at the Human Emperor Sword carried on Lin En’s back.

Originally, after killing the Black Mountain Old Monster, Lin En took the Human Emperor Sword to find Yan Chixia, ready to return the sword to him. But Yan Chixia refused to accept it no matter what. He believed that Lin En had been recognized by the Human Emperor Sword, and the Human Emperor Sword was more willing to follow Lin En!

Lin En didn’t worry about it, so the Human Emperor Sword remained in his hand.

“You are too kind, Lord!” Lin En had some vague guesses about the plans of those people, but he just pretended not to know: “Anyway, when my world winch can locate this world, all your plans will be in vain!”

Tathagata nodded and said: “When Xuanzang’s journey to the West is over, you will have a high position in my Buddhist sect!”

“Thank you, Buddha!” ​​Lin En thanked him.

“Okay, you guys go! Don’t let anything happen to Xuanzang!” After encouraging Lin En, Tathagata said with a smile.

Guanyin and Lin En nodded, and then flew to chase Xuanzang who was going to subdue the pig demon. Tathagata stood there, looking at the direction where the two were going, with a meaningful look in his eyes: “This is a battle of fortune between my Buddhist sect and the Taoist sect. What role do the emperors play in this? Forcibly creating a celestial being in the human world, is this your method?”

Since the catastrophe of the Conferred God, humans and gods have been separated, and no immortals have been born in the human world for many years. What a coincidence, at the time when he was planning to obtain the scriptures, a zombie that jumped out of the Three Realms and was not in the Five Elements became an immortal? “No matter what you have planned, the world’s general trend has been established, and the prosperity of my Buddhist sect cannot be changed!” Tathagata had a smile on his face: “If you just want to share a piece of the pie, how about giving you a distinguished position?”

……

At Gao Laozhuang Hotel, a young man and woman sat in an empty seat under the guidance of a puppet controlled by Zhu Ganglie.

Then the two men and women started a disgusting conversation.

“Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, fatty but not greasy, how can there be such delicious roasted pig!”

“Yes, the layout here is very unique.” The man pointed to the nine-toothed rake not far away and said, “Look, that candlestick is so beautiful.”

“But I’m not as pretty as you, senior brother.” The woman looked at the man with a crazy look on her face.

“Why do you always care about my appearance!” The man said impatiently, “Are you so superficial?”

The woman didn’t care at all and said coquettishly: “Which girl doesn’t like handsome guys?”

The man pretended to be speechless, leaned on the stone table with one hand, and covered his face with his palm to prevent the woman from looking at him.

“Are you angry already?” The woman hugged the man’s arm and pulled him, “Oh, let me take a look, let me take a look, let me take a look.”

“Alright, alright, alright!” The man put down his hand in distress, turned around and faced the woman, and said helplessly: “I’ll let you watch enough, watch until you die, is that okay?”

The two looked at each other for a long time, and the man muttered in dissatisfaction: “Why aren’t you dead yet?”

The woman didn’t feel sad at all because of being rejected. She looked at the man with a smile and seemed to be fascinated by him.

It was not until Zhu Ganglie showed up in his true form and killed the disgusting couple, turned their souls into puppets, and made their bodies into roasted pigs that everything calmed down again.

After dark, under the moonlight, a young man with disheveled hair and leaning on a bamboo stick also came to Gao Laozhuang Hotel.

This person is naturally the exorcist Chen Xuanzang, who was ordered by his master to come here to subdue Zhu Ganglie.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw that the entire hotel was brightly lit and was full of guests who came here to dine.

“Welcome, welcome, welcome to Gaojiazhuang.” Just as he walked down the steps, a middle-aged woman came over and enthusiastically pulled him aside, leading the way while introducing the place, “Guest, you have good taste. The food here is good, and the decoration is also nice. The guests who come here like it very much. Look at this candlestick, isn’t it very tasteful?”

“You can tell how delicious our food is when you see so many returning customers. Also, this is our signature roasted pig, which is very crispy and delicious.”

The middle-aged woman kept chattering while pulling Xuanzang inside!
“There are so many guests today. Sir, please wait a moment. I will find a seat for you.”

After she finished her introduction, she went to look for a seat.

Chen Xuanzang stood in the middle of the hall and looked around. Everything was an illusion in his eyes. The candlesticks, the guests, and the roasted pig in the oven were all seen through and could not hide anything from him.

“Sir.” At this time, the middle-aged woman’s voice sounded behind him, “I found the location, follow me.”

Chen Xuanzang turned around with an expressionless face, and did not follow the other party. Instead, he said directly: “I am an exorcist, please show yourself.”

“You…what did you say?” the woman asked innocently.

Chen Xuanzang mustered up his courage and punched the other person in the face. However, the woman grabbed his fist with one hand and said, “Okay, let’s do it!”

Seeing that Xuanzang was about to be beaten to death by these puppets, Guanyin shook her head and said, “It’s time for me to go down!”

Inside the hotel, Miss Duan, the incarnation of Guanyin, pulled Xuanzang aside, and then, with several violent punches, she smashed the puppet into powder. Afterwards, she shouted softly and threw the Wuding Flying Ring in her hand. During the flight, the golden ring split into two, and then four more appeared. After continuous splitting, a dense mass appeared in the blink of an eye.

“Bang! Bang! Bang…”

All the puppets had no power to resist and were beaten to pieces.

“These things you turned into are not fun at all. Come out by yourself.” Miss Duan took back the golden ring lightly, patted the dust off her hands, stood in the middle of the hall with her hands on her hips and shouted, “Come out!”

In an instant, Zhu Ganglie rushed out. After a fierce battle, Zhu Ganglie revealed his true form, and the injured Miss Duan pulled Xuanzang to escape to a river.

Xuanzang chose to ignore Miss Duan’s teasing, but he was actually already moved.

……

Early the next morning.

Chen Xuanzang, in a trance, found his master Tathagata.

“Xuanzang, are you feeling good?”

Tathagata looked into Chen Xuanzang’s eyes with a smile, as if he knew everything, and asked without waiting for his disciple to speak.

Chen Xuanzang was puzzled and asked, “What’s so cool?”

“You picked up a girl.” Tathagata said with certainty.

“Master, what are you talking about?” Chen Xuanzang quickly explained, “How can I pick up girls?”

Tathagata said no more, but asked: “What do you think about things between men and women?”

“It’s just a little love between men and women. It has nothing to do with me.” Chen Xuanzang said seriously: “I want to practice for the great love of the world.”

Tathagata had obviously heard this many times, so he held up a roasted goose leg and asked, “Do you want to eat it?”

“I don’t want to.” Chen Xuanzang said firmly.

After hearing this, Tathagata smiled and started to gnaw on the goose leg.

When Chen Xuanzang saw this, he quickly advised, “Master, this is not good. This is against the rules.”

Tathagata chewed with big mouthfuls and said, “I don’t have goose legs in my heart, so it’s okay to eat them. You want to eat them in your heart, but you say you don’t want to eat them. It’s just a little bit short.”

“Just a little bit.”

There was a strange power in Tathagata’s voice. The words just now kept echoing in Chen Xuanzang’s mind. His pupils gradually dilated, and he seemed to be about to understand something.
