Chapter 243 The Beginning of the Journey to the West
Sha Wujing reached out and pulled, and the streak of lightning that shot out from between his eyebrows instantly transformed into a blood-red rope.
His muscles bulged, and he exerted force.
The enormous boar demon, as massive as an ancient divine mountain that filled the vast sky, was flung towards the Heavenly Gate by him.
The cultivators from the Eastern Region below were horrified as they watched the demons flying overhead.
Just as the demon was about to fall, a thick, long dragon tail lifted it up from below.
It stopped its downward momentum directly.
With a soft shout, Sha Wujing's body swelled up, instantly transforming into a towering giant.
With a quick movement of his arms, he and the Jade Dragon lifted the pig demon onto their shoulders.
The two walked slowly, but with great determination.
They walked step by step toward the immortal gate.
The path to immortality is not long.
Only nine levels.
It was originally meant to bloom only for Yu Jiaolong.
Now, however, three people have joined them.
Sensing this, the immortal gate seemed to be slowly closing.
"Do not hold back! This immortal gate can only allow one immortal to pass through! We must quickly stuff this demon inside before it closes, otherwise, this realm will perish!"
After uttering the words "Kill Wu Jing," he gained three more points of strength and forcefully pushed the demon towards the immortal gate step by step.
Just as the two were about to climb the last step and completely stuff it in.
The pig demon, whose spirit had been scattered by Chen Chunan's blow, suddenly awoke.
Its true form was originally a demon lord in the Desire Realm, whose rank was comparable to that of a Mystic Immortal.
Later, it merged with Chen Chunan's three poisons of greed, anger, and ignorance, and only then did it transform into this unparalleled demon.
Upon awakening, he immediately displayed extraordinary abilities.
With a single thought, the space collapsed instantly, and the dragon tail that Yu Jiaolong had wrapped around her front legs and the rope in Sha Wujing's hand shattered in an instant.
The space where the three of them were then spontaneously transformed into an independent small space.
Suffering this severe injury, Yu Jiaolong immediately let out a muffled groan, and her aura, comparable to that of a true immortal, quickly withered away.
His eyes were filled with despair; was he really going to perish here?
Sha Wujing guessed that the demon would wake up soon, but he didn't expect it to wake up so quickly.
His face turned deathly pale instantly. How could he possibly be a match for this demon who was comparable to a Xuanxian?
Didn't you see that Yu Jiaolong was seriously injured just from being shaken by the aura of this demon's awakening?
The pig demon paid no attention to their thoughts; they were nothing more than two ants.
With a single thought, the pig demon shattered the restraints binding him and looked at the boundless realm of color before him, feeling immense joy in his heart.
With a single suck, boundless spiritual energy transformed into countless long dragons that converged upon it.
However, the myriad spiritual energies are merely a facade. If Chen Chunan were to observe, he would surely see that there is an even more continuous stream of primordial primordial energy flowing into his Xuan Guan acupoint.
With the two elements combined, in no time at all, the pig demon's previously somewhat illusory body began to solidify completely.
The pig demon, aided by spiritual energy and primordial ancestral qi, felt its cultivation level rise rapidly. It proudly recited: "All the words of the myriad immortal scriptures are the same; the Golden Elixir is but this root. It is formed in the Kun position, planted in the Qian family's Palace of Intercourse. Do not blame the leaks of heavenly secrets; it is all due to the ignorance of the scholars. If one understands the meaning of this poem, one will immediately see the Three Pure Ones and the Supreme Elder."
"I was born from a celestial demon, and today I have received this great opportunity. Even if I cannot become an immortal, I will still become a revered ancestor! Wait for me... I deserve to die!"
A jet-black iron rod extended from the shattered space of the Sacred Realm of Reincarnation, pressing firmly against the heart of the pig demon.
They sped towards the Immortal Gate, easily shattering the small space barrier.
This unexpected turn of events gave a much-needed boost to the hearts of Sha Wujing and Jiaolong, who were feeling utterly hopeless.
Sha Wujing's face lit up with surprise: "It's that scoundrel Chen Chunan! He's out?"
Both the human and the dragon turned their heads to look at the place where space had shattered.
All that could be seen was a small, palm-sized opening that had already healed, from which only a single, bowl-sized Ruyi Jingu Bang (a magical staff) protruded.
The two could only vaguely make out a large hand with distinct knuckles and faintly visible blue veins.
The two were somewhat disappointed that Chen Chunan didn't come out, and they were also worried about the outcome of this attack.
To avoid any unforeseen complications, the killing of Wu Jing was carried out in one fell swoop.
The vertical eye between its brows opened again, and a blood-red light shot out like a serpent, transforming into a long staff that pressed firmly against the pig demon's back. With the combined force of the two, the pig demon's speed increased by another three points.
As the immortal gate drew ever closer, the pig demon turned ashen-faced and struggled desperately, but could not move an inch.
Immobilization spell!
This is the supernatural power and technique that Chen Chunan comprehended after arriving at Chaotian Palace.
Previously, Daoist Yuchen had also fallen victim to this technique.
At this moment, the pig demon was also caught in the trap, unable to use its usual magical powers and abilities.
In less than two breaths, the golden cudgel firmly pressed the demon against the immortal gate.
The thousands of auspicious wisps hanging down from the immortal gate all dispersed.
Pig's head!
Pig elbow!
Pork kidneys!
In less than three breaths, only the pig demon's rear end was sticking out of the immortal gate.
"No! No! No! I cannot go to the Immortal Realm! I have not truly attained enlightenment yet! No!"
The pig demon was terrified. Despite being separated by a realm, the three old Taoist priests had not yet gained the upper hand in their battle with Chen Chunan.
But that's a realm apart! As a demon from the Desire Realm, I know their true strength all too well.
This isn't asking me to enter the path of immortality, it's asking me to die!
...
"Pop~"
With a soft thud, the pig demon was mercilessly and completely sent into the immortal realm by Chen Chunan.
Having succeeded in one move, Chen Chunan breathed a long sigh of relief.
Just then, he retrieved his Ruyi Jingu Bang.
With a deafening roar, the entire Sacred Realm of Reincarnation was utterly reduced to chaos.
A furious voice echoed throughout the Three Realms at that moment: "You traitor to Heaven! Your mother is a servant!"
...
"Oh no! I'm doomed!"
Seeing that the spatial rift broken by Chen Chunan was showing signs of disappearing completely, Sha Wujing disregarded Yu Jiaolong, who was full of doubts and injured.
It immediately transformed into a wisp of green smoke, and once again entered the Sacred Realm of Reincarnation through a crack the size of a soybean.
But by then it was too late.
Chaos was completely shattered.
At this moment, the monk Mingxing's face was divided into yin and yang, one half like a compassionate Buddha, the other half like an angry Vajra.
Six Heavenly Desires swirled around his body, forcibly creating a "Buddhist Kingdom" from the shattered chaos.
Dozens of demons transformed into dignified and majestic Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, standing on either side.
Witnessing this scene, Sha Wujing felt a chill run through him: "It's over!"
Before he could finish thinking, he felt a sudden dizziness and, like Chen Chunan and the others, completely lost consciousness.
Just after everyone was forced to reincarnate once again.
A magnificent palace rose from the shattered chaos.
A majestic and awe-inspiring deity, adorned with a twelve-tasseled crown and a dragon robe with twelve symbols, slowly appeared in the main seat.
...
Fairyland
The pig demon, whose restraints had suddenly disappeared, was now like a frightened bird.
The moment he gained his freedom, he vanished in a wisp of smoke.
It disappeared, and the next instant, a gloomy-faced old Taoist appeared where it had vanished.
"Escaped? Let's see where you can run to! Master of the New Path? You think you're all set just because you've gotten rid of this fiend? I, this old Daoist, already know your plans for the Journey to the West! Now that your mind has turned into a demon, I'll see if you can obtain the true 'essence.' Hmph!"
