In the Hall of Enlightenment, Yang Jian and Wang Shan were exchanging pleasantries. Above the Hall of Enlightenment, Sun Wukong and Gautama were fighting.
However, even though Sun Wukong's Dharma powers were monstrous and his physical body was tyrannical, he was still not as strong as the incarnation of the Saint. Furthermore, every time Gautama attacked, a huge amount of mental power would be activated. His strength was not weaker than the true body of the Saint.
How could Sun Wukong defeat him?
Yang Jian did not have the intention to continue attacking. Although he was unhappy that the Buddhists had suppressed Sun Wukong, the incarnation of the Saint had actually attacked a disciple of the Daoist Sect.
However, today, Sun Wukong was suppressed under the Five Fingers Mountain. When Yang Jian could not think of a better way to train Sun Wukong's temperament, he could only let the Buddhists do so.
After a few rounds, Sun Wukong understood that he could not do what he wanted today. There were many hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the world.
Putting aside the 10,000-feet-tall Buddha in front of him, he had never heard of the civil official who had stopped him in the three years he had been in the Celestial Court …
What happened today made the monkey understand a principle.
In the Celestial Court, one did not rely on one's own strength to determine one's position. That puzzled the monkey.
"I'm not fighting anymore!"
Sun Wukong retreated, but he was blocked by a group of Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals. He had no choice but to stop thousands of feet in front of the Buddha. He leaned on his long staff and looked at the Buddha proudly.
The Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals did not move forward. Instead, they received orders to seal the world to prevent the monkey from escaping.
The golden Buddha chanted a Buddhist proclamation and spoke to Sun Wukong.
Sun Wukong thought that he was smart and wanted to play the golden Buddha like a monkey. However, the golden Buddha took advantage of the situation and allowed Sun Wukong to stand in the palm of the Buddha.
When Yang Jian saw this scene in the Hall of Enlightenment, he really had the urge to jump out and scold the monkey.
It was the monkey who suggested competing in mystical abilities other than fighting techniques. He relied on his Somersault Cloud and made a bet with the Tathagata.
If Sun Wukong could fly out of the Tathagata's palm, the Tathagata would retreat and no longer obstruct Sun Wukong; but if the Tathagata won, Sun Wukong would have to accept punishment for the sins he had committed today.
This could be considered a "famous scene" in the Journey to the West calamity.
Sun Wukong's understanding of the Sage's methods was too shallow, so he was easily tricked. From Yang Jian's point of view, when Sun Wukong jumped into the palm of the Golden Buddha, he was already a fish on the chopping board, waiting to be slaughtered.
As expected!
When Sun Wukong executed the Somersault Cloud, Tathagata directly set up the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth on his palm. The Great Dao of Heaven and Earth around Sun Wukong was compressed infinitely. In the blink of an eye, Sun Wukong's physical body turned into the size of a green bean. However, Sun Wukong didn't notice anything and still thought that he was flying at high speed.
After flying for a while, Sun Wukong felt that he had flown far enough. Just as he was about to stop, he saw four towering cylindrical mountains in front of him.
"Master once said that there are four Heavenly Pillars in the world. They are treasures that were cut down from the body of the Ancient Black Tortoise to support the world. Mo Fei is one of them?"
Sun Wukong's eyes lit up. He immediately went over and flew one round around a Heavenly Pillar before landing at the foot of the mountain.
The monkey's playful heart didn't change. He first peed in a corner of the Heavenly Pillar before flying around randomly.
"No, if I say that I flew to the ends of the world, that Tathagata will definitely not believe me. I should write something as proof."
He did as he said.
After executing the 72 Transformations, the monkey directly transformed into a brush and wrote a line of words on the Heavenly Pillar.
"The Great Sage, Heaven's Equal was here."
Unbeknownst to him, Sun Wukong's various situations were seen by the mighty cultivators. When they saw Sun Wukong pee in Tathagata's palm, many female immortals immediately spat softly.
The monkey did a somersault and 'jumped' back in the direction he came from. His body rapidly expanded. Throughout the entire process, the monkey didn't have the slightest difference. It revealed Tathagata's perfect control of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
Naturally, Sun Wukong lost just like that.
However, the first thing he thought of after losing was not to apologize to Tathagata. Instead, he rolled his eyes and turned to escape.
"Demon monkey, aren't you going to surrender?"
Tathagata scolded softly. His right hand, which was already several tens of feet long, flipped and suddenly expanded.
Rays of golden light shone over, binding Sun Wukong tightly like ropes.
The monkey turned his head to take a look, but he still panicked. When he saw the huge hand smashing down, he felt that there was no way to escape.
However, he was the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal after all. At this moment, he didn't give up. The Jingu Bang in his hand rapidly expanded!
"Bald Monk Tathagata! Do you really think that I'm afraid of you?! "
Just as he finished speaking, the Jingu Bang was smashed vertically by the huge hand of the golden Buddha. Sun Wukong couldn't hold it firmly for a moment and could only watch as the Jingu Bang left his hand and the huge hand smashed down on his head …
Somersault Cloud!
72 Transformations!
Sun Wukong struggled with all his might, his figure fleeing diagonally downwards!
It was unknown when the various enchantments in the Heavenly Realm had stopped. The great array of the Celestial Court had also been secretly shut down.
Under the huge hand that covered the sky, Sun Wukong fled diagonally downwards. However, he rushed out of the Celestial Court without any obstruction.
He turned his head to take a look. The huge hand still showed no signs of stopping. Instead, it was getting closer to him. Sun Wukong could only curse angrily and continue charging diagonally downwards.
The hand seemed to want to suppress everything, as if it wanted to shatter the Primordial World.
The cloud path shattered layer by layer, and the universe rippled. The sea of Dao laws was also triggered by the full eruption of the Saint's Great Dao.
In the end, Sun Wukong failed to escape. Just as he was about to rush out of the edge of the huge hand, his flying body suddenly collided with the ground, and his body was blocked for half an instant.
In just half an instant, he lost his only chance to escape and was smashed into the ground by the edge of the huge golden hand!
The golden palm turned into five mountains, perfectly connected with the earth meridians. It was called the Five Fingers Mountain. The monkey king was suppressed under the Five Fingers Mountain.
"Amitabha."
Tathagata chanted a Buddhist proclamation. The missing right hand of the golden body was quickly repaired by the golden light. In the blink of an eye, it was restored to its original state.
Rumble …
A rumbling sound came from the northwest of the South Continent. It was as if the ground was trembling. The Five Fingers Mountain was trembling continuously …
"Evil creature!" Tathagata cursed with a cold expression. A golden talisman flew out of his palm and slowly floated down, landing on the Five Fingers Mountain. The Five Fingers Mountain was immediately enveloped by golden light.
It was Tathagata who had directly received boundless psyche power from the spiritual mountain in the West. He used the accumulated psyche power of the Buddhist Sect to suppress the Five Fingers Mountain.
This talisman? With that, the entire Five Fingers Mountain stopped trembling.
After spending a long time, Sun Wukong only managed to reveal his head from under a cliff of the Five Fingers Mountain. His body was completely imprisoned in the Five Fingers Mountain.
How could the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal tolerate such humiliation? Sun Wukong started cursing again.
However, the barrier of the Heaven realm began to slowly recover. The array formation of the Celestial Court also slowly closed. Only Sun Wukong was left cursing on the ground. The surroundings of the Five Fingers Mountain were also wrapped in fog …
In the Hall of Enlightenment, Yang Jian could only sigh with his hands behind his back when he saw that.
"Perfected Lord, do you think it's a pity that the monkey was suppressed like that?" Wang Shan said with a smile.
Yang Jian nodded slowly and said, "Sun Wukong was easily suppressed by the Buddhists. It made the Dao Sect lose face."
"Face is not a big deal." Wang Shan shook his head gently. "What I'm worried about now is that the Buddhists seem to be plotting something. Today's situation seems to be done to suppress Sun Wukong."
Yang Jian looked at the first spirit official of the Celestial Court in surprise.
Wang Shan cupped his hands and said that he still had something to deal with. Then, he bade farewell to Yang Jian.
Yang Jian stood there and did not say anything else. His figure left with the wind.
Putting aside where Yang Jian was going, after the matter was settled, apart from secretly visiting the monkey, he would go to the Xuandu City to continue cultivating in seclusion and comprehend the Eight-Nine Arcane Art to become a Saint.
Moreover, the fact that Gautama had suppressed the demonic monkey could be considered to have helped the Celestial Court out of trouble and saved the face of the Celestial Court.
At that moment, Venus Taibai received the decree and invited Buddha Gautama into the Lingxiao Treasure Hall for a chat. Gautama did not reject. He really put down his pride as the incarnation of a Saint and followed Venus Taibai into the Lingxiao Treasure Hall.
Ignoring the Heaven Queen's cold expression, the Jade Emperor said that this year's Immortal Peach Banquet would continue to be held in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall.
With the Grand Supreme Elder and Gautama Buddha around, the standard of the Immortal Peach Banquet seemed to have far exceeded that of previous years. No matter how unwilling the Heaven Queen was, she did not dare to say no.
From the outcome, the Heaven Queen had lost to the Jade Emperor again. In fact, she had lost extremely miserably. She could not even protect the Immortal Peach Banquet. She had moved from the Jade Pool to the Lingxiao Treasure Hall. Instead, she had become a "guest".
The Jade Emperor had used the incarnation of the two Saints to establish some dignity for the Celestial Court. He had also taken the opportunity to repair his relationship with the Buddhists and obtained the help of the Western Sect.
A small Great Sage, Heaven's Equal had caused a lot of trouble for the Celestial Court. They had even obtained some luck and merit from the Journey to the West calamity …
In the Lingxiao Hall, the immortals and Buddhas toasted and discussed the Dao. The fairies danced and the immortal music echoed.
At the foot of the Five Finger Mountain, the purple-gold wing crown on the monkey's head had fallen somewhere. There was some grass ash on his head, and his face was really covered in dirt.
After being stunned for a while, the monkey seemed to have thought of something and sighed dejectedly.
"Master …"
He murmured and shook his head. There was a little emptiness in his Fiery Eyes.
A white shadow was hidden in the dark, as if hesitating to show up. This white shadow was a little monk in a white robe. He had been staring at the frustrated monkey.
However, just as he was about to take a step forward, a green bird descended from the sky.
The little monk in white immediately retreated. His figure leaned against the rock wall and disappeared without a trace. There was not a trace of his aura left.
