A carefree soldier king in the city

Chapter 657 Revenge

Sun Wukong knew that Potato was stronger than him and he definitely couldn't beat him in a fight. As for this young man, he sized up Ritian and felt that dealing with Ritian shouldn't be a problem, so he asked, "Is that really true?"

Potato nodded and smiled: "Really."

Sun Wukong nodded, then said to Ritian, "Young man, you are a Xuan Turtle spirit. When I, Old Sun, escorted my master to the Western Paradise to obtain the scriptures, I killed countless monsters. I see that your skills are hard-earned, and I, Old Sun, cannot bear to kill you with my staff."

Ri Tian said, "Great Sage, I've heard that you have seventy-two transformations. Coincidentally, I also have seventy-two transformations, and I even have thirty-six more than you."

Sun Wukong said, "Brother, you're quite the talker. I don't believe you."

Ritian smiled slightly and said, "If you don't believe me, then let's see who's the real deal!" With that, Ritian took out his tortoise shell and continued, "Great Sage, you have the Golden Cudgel, and I have the Heaven-Sealing Disc. How about this, I'll let you hit me with the cudgel, and if I'm fine, then you can let me hit you with the disc, how about that?"

Sun Wukong glanced at the Heaven-Sealing Disc in Ritian's hand and thought to himself, "This young man dares to talk so big. Could it be that the tortoise shell in his hand holds some kind of secret?" After thinking for a moment, he said, "Young man, since you are so arrogant, then take a blow from my old Sun's staff first."

As he spoke, Sun Wukong raised his golden cudgel and swung it down at Ritian. However, the cudgel stopped abruptly just inches from Ritian's scalp and could not fall any further.

Sun Wukong was startled: "Oh no, this young man is incredibly powerful. I'd better leave first."

Immediately, as Sun Wukong turned around, Ritian threw the Heaven-Sealing Disc in his hand at him, instantly trapping Sun Wukong inside the tortoise shell. Then, the Heaven-Sealing Disc returned to Ritian's hand.

"Master, what do you intend to do with Sun Wukong?" Ritian asked.

Potato said, "This monkey was at least being used by others without knowing it. Let's spare his life and let him reflect on his actions inside! We'll release him whenever he comes to his senses."

Ritian said, "Yes, Master."

Tian Yue, who had been silent all along, finally had a chance to speak and asked, "Potato, what does Sun Wukong need the Heavenly Plate for?"

Potato smiled and said, "This monkey was used by Su Haijun. He must have a reason for wanting Tianpan. If I'm not mistaken, he probably wants to find Hou Yi's Zhen Tian Divine Bow and Sun-Shooting Arrow, Hou Tu's Nine Heavens Breath Soil, Zhu Rong's Tian Li Fire Divine Whip, Kua Fu's Peach Wood Divine Staff, etc., in order to set up the Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation, exchange for the true body of the Great God Pangu, and then obtain his power and laws."

Tian Yue exclaimed in surprise, "No way? The Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation can really summon the true form of the Great God Pangu?"

After the Buddha and the Jade Emperor met their demise, apart from a few people from the Heavenly Court, all the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, holy monks, Arhats, Jiedi, Bhikkhus, Upasakas, immortals, great gods, Dingjia, Gongcao, Sangharama, and local deities from various mountains and caves, and all the enlightened immortal masters, have now gathered at the sacred land of Mount Ling, each returning to their respective places. However, at this moment, one can see from their faces that they all seem to be immersed in worry and fear.

Potato put his hands together and said to Guanyin Bodhisattva, "Bodhisattva, nowadays the Heavenly Court is without a master and Mount Ling is without an ancestor. The Three Realms will surely face an unprecedented calamity. I hope that all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas will work together to prepare for the calamity."

Guanyin Bodhisattva, holding a jade vase in her left hand and making a lotus finger gesture with her right, said: "Amitabha, well said! The devil may be one foot tall, but the Tao is ten feet tall. We will surely defend the peace of the Three Realms to the death and eradicate all evil and heresy."

The crowd joined their palms in reverence and chanted, "Amitabha Buddha, we vow to defend the peace of the Three Realms to the death and eradicate all evil and heretical paths."

Potato said, "Okay."

Namo Bhaisajyaguru Buddha said, "If you have any instructions, we will do our best to cooperate and go all out."

Potato said, "Guanyin Bodhisattva, please go to the Heavenly Court and tell the Queen Mother and Laozi that if anyone wants the Nine Heavens Breath Soil and the Heavenly Fire God Whip, just have them give it to him."

Upon hearing this, Guanyin Bodhisattva asked in confusion, "Why is that?"

Potato said, "Nezha left the Heavenly Court, and Tang Sanzang, Zhu Bajie, Sha Wujing, the White Dragon, the Little Dragon Girl, and Fairy Biyao also left Mount Ling. If I'm not mistaken, they must have gone to search for sacred objects such as the Nine Heavens Breath Soil. Let's play along."

Namo Past, Future, and Present Buddha: "May I ask, benefactor, how should we turn the tables on you?"

Potato glanced at Ritian, who understood and transformed into the likeness of Sun Wukong.

Ritian said, "I'll transform into Sun Wukong to keep them calm for now, and then..."

After hearing this, everyone nodded in unison, and then Ritian's figure flickered and disappeared from the sacred land of Lingshan.

Namo Past, Future and Present Buddha said: "Benefactor, Sun Wukong has subdued Dijiang, the chief of the Twelve Ancestral Witches. Dijiang is tyrannical by nature, and likes evil and hates good. He has been suppressed under Tianshan Mountain. Now that he has been released by Sun Wukong, it may be difficult to suppress him again. I wonder if you have any methods to trap him?"

When Potato arrived at the sacred land of Lingshan, the Jade Emperor had already died. He happened to find all the immortals and Buddhas gathered together, discussing how to deal with Sun Wukong. After Potato revealed his identity and purpose and showed them images of Nuwa, Hongjun, and others through a video, the immortals and Buddhas regarded Potato as their savior, like stars surrounding the moon, and thus they made Potato their leader.

Tian Yue said, "Dijiang is no threat at all; leave it to me."

Namo Bhaisajyaguru Buddha said, "If you want to suppress it, you must use the 'Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation' and the 'Universe Formation'. The Buddha Tathagata used the 'Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation' as the core of the 'Universe Formation' to suppress Dijiang."

Tianyue laughed and said, "I have a brilliant plan, so please rest assured. Just watch how I subdue Dijiang."

Potato said, "Brother, be careful."

Tianyue smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will."

With that, Tianyue transformed into a beam of light and vanished from the sacred Ling Mountain.

The Heavenly Court, beside the Jade Pool, the Jade Pool Pavilion.

The Queen Mother of the West and her seven daughters sat in the pavilion, but at this moment, the atmosphere was unusually tense. All eight of them had saddened their faces. Several days had passed since the Jade Emperor's death, but they were still immersed in grief and weeping.

"Mother, I want to avenge Father!" The eldest fairy in red said angrily as she stood up.

The others chimed in, "And us, Mother! We must avenge Father and kill that damned monkey!"

The Queen Mother sighed and said, "Daughters, let it go! You can't defeat him."

The second daughter, a fairy in plain clothes, said, "Mother, are we just going to let that dead monkey go like this?"
