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

#1826 - Control the Moonlight Buddha

The pill that Chu Hao took out was fiery red, like a blazing flame, and looked extraordinary.

It was the Soul Entrapment Pill that Maitreya had given him.

Radiant Light Buddha looked wary. “What is this?”

“Don't worry, it won't kill you. It's just a means of controlling people,” Chu Hao said without concealment.

“Controlling people? You want to control me?” Radiant Light Buddha was frightened, and Buddhist light emerged from his body, as if facing a formidable enemy.

Because the other party had told him such an important secret, wasn't he going to be silenced?

Seeing the strange look in Radiant Light Buddha's eyes, Chu Hao smiled and said, “So, don't struggle. Just eat it obediently and be my eyes and ears. Who told your Mount Meru to dare to interfere with my Law Enforcement Hall.”

Mount Meru was so bold as to send the Roc to the Law Enforcement Hall as a spy. Chu Hao also planned to imitate them and install a few spies in Mount Meru.

And this Radiant Light Buddha was naturally one of them.

Chu Hao's words were very plain, but they set off a stormy sea in Radiant Light Buddha's ears.

He looked at Chu Hao in astonishment. It was hard to imagine that the other party had such a big plan and dared to plot against Buddhism in this way. Was he not afraid of the Saint?

As a disciple of Buddhism, Radiant Light Buddha could not accept betraying Buddhism. He said decisively: “Impossible, even if my Radiant Light dies and my soul is scattered, I will never accept it.”

“Is that so? Then you can die.” Chu Hao raised his right hand, and a terrifying force emerged.

Seeing that power, Radiant Light Buddha suddenly felt the threat of death, his face changed drastically, and he quickly said: “Wait, wait a minute, I accept.”

With that, he picked up the pill on the ground and swallowed it in one gulp.

As the fiery red pill entered his body, Radiant Light Buddha instantly felt a surging force emerge, passing through his internal organs and directly into his primordial spirit.

The primordial spirit, which represented life, was instantly wrapped in a ball of scorching flames. At first, Radiant Light Buddha wanted to use his powerful strength to stop this change, but even though he was already a quasi-sage, it was useless in the face of that fiery red pill.

His expression changed, and knowing that he was powerless to stop it, he could only let his primordial spirit be shackled.

Chu Hao immediately sensed Radiant Light Buddha's primordial spirit. As long as he wanted, he could instantly cause his primordial spirit to explode. Even the Tathagata could not save him then.

Seeing this, Chu Hao ordered his subordinates to remove the restrictions in the prison, and then said to Radiant Light Buddha: “I will send you back in a few days. You should know what to do then, right?”

Radiant Light Buddha's heart was as dead as ashes, and he nodded blankly.

After doing all this, Chu Hao turned and left.

On the other side, in the Great Thunderclap Temple in Mount Meru, Guanyin conveyed the words of the Golden-Winged Roc to the Tathagata.

The Buddhas were furious when they heard this.

“Why did this Roc suddenly change his mind?” a Buddha asked.

Unfortunately, Guanyin could not give him an answer, so he remained silent.

Only the Tathagata pondered for a moment before slowly asking: “Is this the work of that Chu Hao?”

Guanyin shook his head: “It shouldn't be. The Roc should be fearless and want to ask for benefits.”

“Buddha, this matter cannot be agreed to. Once a precedent is set, the other demon kings will definitely not agree, and it will also damage the dignity of our Western Heavens,” Namo Water Heaven Buddha stood up and said seriously.

The other Buddhas all nodded.

After all, the dignity of the Western Heavens cannot be violated. The Golden-Winged Roc's behavior completely ignored them.

The Tathagata naturally would not agree either. He said calmly: “Let the Golden-Winged Roc come to see me.”

However, Guanyin said helplessly: “He said that he is waiting in Lion Camel Ridge. If we don't agree, he will immediately return to the Law Enforcement Hall and reveal the entire plan.”

Obviously, the Golden-Winged Roc also knew that returning to Mount Meru might be targeted, so he simply became tougher.

This made the Tathagata's face a little unhappy. He glanced at the Buddhas and asked: “Who will go and discuss with the Golden-Winged Roc?”

No Buddha responded.

After all, the other party did not even give Guanyin face. Even if they went, they would not be able to do anything.

They couldn't just kill the other party on the spot, could they?

At this time, Namo Water Heaven Buddha pondered for a moment and suddenly said: “Buddha, since the Golden-Winged Roc is the younger brother of the Peacock King, why not let her go?”

The Peacock King is also a member of Buddhism, known as the Buddha Mother, with a lofty status, and rarely appears in the world.

Hearing this, the Tathagata also nodded and said: “Go and summon the Peacock King.”

Immediately, a Buddha left and went to the place where the Peacock King was.

About ten minutes later, a green light burst forth, Buddhist intent filled the sky, and the magnificent and huge peacock plumage appeared in the field.

The plumage was extremely long, with iridescent eye circles on the feather tips, surrounded by blue and bronze colors, which was very dazzling.

And in front of the plumage, on a lotus platform, sat a dignified, sacred, and powerful Buddha, who was the Peacock King.

Her appearance immediately attracted the attention of the Buddhas, and everyone stood up and saluted her.

As the Buddha Mother, her status was even above the Tathagata, and even the Tathagata put his hands together and declared a Buddha name.

“I wonder why the Tathagata Buddha is looking for me?” the Peacock King asked.

“I have invited the Buddha Mother here today for the matter of the Golden-Winged Roc,” the Tathagata said seriously.

“Oh? Isn't he in the lower realm to become a calamity in the Journey to the West?” the Peacock King asked in confusion.

Obviously, she was not very clear about the affairs of the Three Realms and was more focused on secret cultivation.

The Tathagata did not waste any words and immediately told the other party what had happened.

After listening, the Peacock King's face sank: “How dare this Golden-Winged Roc be so bold? Buddha, don't worry, let me capture him back.”

“In that case, I will have to trouble the Buddha Mother.” The Tathagata nodded.

This was perfect. When Chu Hao really blamed them, he could only look for the Peacock King, and they could stay out of it.

The Peacock King slowly left, while the Tathagata scanned the Buddhas and asked: “Has the boy not returned yet?”

Previously, the White Lotus Boy said that he was going to ask for a decree from the Saint, but so much time had passed now, and there was no news at all. The Tathagata could not help but guess whether he had deserted.

“Buddha, let me go and take a look.” Namo Water Heaven Buddha stood up and said.

“Well, the matter of the crusade against the Demon Clan needs to continue.” The Tathagata nodded.
