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

#876 - Have a dream, wake up, eh, it will work

Although the Celestial Venerable of the Origin had previously reversed time and space, due to being outside the Three Realms at the time, coupled with interference from anomalies, no clues could be found.

However, with Zhen Yuanzi personally present, the information obtained should be more extensive.

Yet, when Zhen Yuanzi used his magic, he only saw one figure: Sun Wukong standing alone outside the Ginseng Fruit Orchard!

The Journey to the West group was greatly shocked.

Especially Sun Wukong, who frowned and shouted angrily:

"Damn it, Old Sun has fallen for a trap!"

"That earth deity was clearly trying to harm me!"

No matter how Zhen Yuanzi reversed time and space, all he could see was Sun Wukong alone in the Ginseng Fruit Orchard.

Zhen Yuanzi was furious.

"Earth deity? Sun Wukong, how can you say such a thing?!"

"My Wuzhuang Temple is a supreme sacred ground. Do you think there could be an earth deity here who isn't even considered a ranked immortal?"

Sun Wukong's eyes widened, his face filled with shock.

"I'm ashamed! Old Sun didn't think of that!"

Only then did Sun Wukong realize that no wonder he felt something was strange.

Wuzhuang Temple was Zhen Yuanzi's territory, and he had been entrenched here for countless years.

Even the weakest Qingfeng and Mingyue were Celestial Immortals.

There was no need for a Ghost Immortal earth deity, who wasn't even a Human Immortal, to look after the place.

The earth deity wasn't even qualified to enter Wuzhuang Temple's territory!

Sun Wukong cried out in surprise, scratching his ears and cheeks.

"But Old Sun was indeed brought here by that earth deity last night!"

Zhen Yuanzi glared, his eyes wide.

At that moment, in the sky above, the Peacock King Ming watched the movements of Wuzhuang Temple, and noticed Zhen Yuanzi using the magic of reversing time, wanting to see the past.

The Peacock King Ming couldn't help but sneer.

"Search, all you can know is only what I want you to see."

"You will only see Sun Wukong arriving at your Ginseng Fruit Orchard, you won't see anything else."

"Even that earth deity has already been reduced to ashes, leaving no trace!"

That earth deity thought the Buddha was honorable; last night, according to the Peacock King Ming's arrangement, he excitedly wanted to follow the Peacock King Ming to the Western Paradise to become a Buddha and an ancestor.

But he didn't know that only dead men tell no tales.

The Peacock King Ming directly annihilated the earth deity with supreme Buddhist Dharma, leaving no trace.

Even the earth deity's future karma was severed with supreme Buddhist Dharma.

So-called karma means that there is a cause, then there is an effect. The karma severed by Buddhist Dharma cannot be detected by Daoist methods.

In fact, the Peacock King Ming severed the karma so thoroughly with his magic power that unless it was the Western Paradise's top-level time-reversal great divine power—the Round Mirror—it would be impossible to see it.

And this great divine power, the Round Mirror, is only possessed by extremely powerful Buddhas, at least at the level of the Three Worlds Buddhas.

But those existences would naturally not help Zhen Yuanzi find the truth.

Everything had become a dead end.

The Peacock King Ming sat upright in the sky, a sneer rising from the corner of his mouth.

"Unless it's the Round Mirror, no one can see this past."

"Heh heh, Zhen Yuanzi, obediently accept the grace of my Western Paradise and be a dog of my Western Paradise!"

The Peacock King Ming sneered in the sky, but suddenly, his expression changed drastically.

"How is that possible! Is this Gouchen Emperor a traitor?!"

The Peacock King Ming's eyes widened, almost popping out!

At this moment,

Zhen Yuanzi was grabbing Sun Wukong, wanting to force him to confess.

Sun Wukong was furious. With his monkey temper, how could he endure being wronged by Zhen Yuanzi?

"Bah! You old fool, Old Sun dares to act and dares to take responsibility. If I didn't knock down your broken tree, then I didn't! How can Old Sun suffer your false accusations!"

"Take this!"

Sun Wukong directly took out his golden cudgel and struck Zhen Yuanzi on the head!

Zhen Yuanzi had just had his foundation of Dao overturned, and his reaction was very slow.

Caught off guard, Sun Wukong's cudgel landed directly on Zhen Yuanzi's head.

Duang!

The Great Sage Equal to Heaven didn't hold back, directly knocking a bump on Zhen Yuanzi's head!

It could be considered revenge for Zhen Yuanzi's false accusation.

Zhen Yuanzi was exasperated.

"You mischievous monkey, how can I tolerate you!"

Just as Zhen Yuanzi was about to attack,

Chu Hao reached out his hand.

"Hold on!"

Zhen Yuanzi was furious, but he still stopped.

"Gouchen Emperor, don't stop me. I said, whoever knocked down my Ginseng Fruit Tree, I will tear them to pieces!"

"No one can stop me!"

Chu Hao glanced at Zhen Yuanzi and smiled slightly.

"Don't shout and kill at every turn. Can you listen to me finish speaking?"

Zhen Yuanzi was familiar with this smile of Chu Hao's. He smiled like this when he went to the Five Turbid Evil World to start a massacre.

Although Zhen Yuanzi had all kinds of anger in his heart, he still put down his harsh words and scolded:

"Emperor, if you can't give a reason, then don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Chu Hao smiled slightly and suddenly said:

"Do you know why you can't see anything else with Daoist magic?"

Zhen Yuanzi said indignantly: "I have long heard that the Gouchen Emperor obscures the secrets of heaven. Even a saint cannot see half of it without personally being present!"

"Of course, I don't suspect that the Emperor is deliberately concealing anything, don't misunderstand."

Zhen Yuanzi weakly added.

It's best to be cautious.

Chu Hao smiled slightly.

"Eh, that's not the case. The reason you can't see the past here is because you used Daoist magic, but it was Buddhist Dharma that severed all the earth deity's karma."

"Only with Buddhist Dharma can you see the karma here."

Zhen Yuanzi said with a gloomy face and snorted coldly:

"You can say whatever you want! Anyway, no one here knows Buddhist Dharma! No one can see the past!"

"You can just arbitrarily blame the Western Paradise!"

But Chu Hao suddenly grinned.

"Isn't that a coincidence? I know something about Buddhist Dharma!"

"And not only do I know it, but I am also proficient in the highest level of divine power to reverse time!"

Zhen Yuanzi was stunned in place.

What are you saying?!

Gouchen the Great, you are a true and upright Celestial Court Four Emperors!

You say you know Buddhist Dharma, and even the most profound Buddhist Dharma for reversing time and space. How are you letting the Western Paradise live?!

Chu Hao smiled slightly, without arguing. Instead, he waved his hand, and a shimmering mirror was drawn in the air.

The mirror flickered with golden light, and in the mirror, the figure of Sun Wukong and the figure of a short earth deity slowly emerged!

Zhen Yuanzi's eyes widened, and he was directly dumbfounded.

"Western Paradise's great divine power, the Round Mirror!"

"Gouchen Emperor, what's going on with you? How do you know the Western Paradise's great divine power!"

Chu Hao smiled shyly.

"Ah hahaha, guess what, I had a dream, and when I woke up, eh, I knew it!"

Zhen Yuanzi was stunned in place, his expression incomparably wonderful.
