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

#1410 - The Saint's Broken Finger! It is necessary to block the door to the abyss

It is said that after the last incident, when the Tathagata Buddha learned about the Dragon Clan's entry into the world, he hurriedly went to the Thirty-third Heaven to ask Zhunti and Jieyin for a solution.

Zhunti and Jieyin were also at a loss upon hearing about the Dragon Clan's entry into the world.

After the Dragon-Han Initial Cataclysm, the Dragon Clan no longer meddled in the karma of the Three Realms. This was common knowledge, and since the immeasurable cataclysm, a true dragon had not been seen on the Primordial Continent.

The two discussed for a long time but could not come up with a countermeasure.

Because until now, the Dragon Clan had not stated the main reason for their entry into the world. Any reason was just the Tathagata Buddha's guess.

Finally, Zhunti and Jieyin made a decision.

"Don't worry about the reason for the Dragon Clan's entry into the world for now. The Journey to the West is full of variables, and the Dragon Clan's entry is just one link in the chain."

"Moreover, even if the Dragon Clan enters the world, they will not be targeting us. They have no conflict of interest with the Journey to the West. Seizing Chechi Kingdom was only for the karma of entering the world."

The Tathagata Buddha felt numb. Damn it! If it was just for the karma of entering the world, why didn't the Dragon Clan say so earlier? I could have donated a dozen or so countries to you. Why did it have to be the crucial Chechi Kingdom!

That was an important moment for the recovery of the Western Heaven's fortune!

"Teacher, what should we do now?" The Tathagata Buddha gave up thinking.

Zhunti pondered for a moment and said:

"It's never too late to mend the fold. Although the Journey to the West is full of flaws, we can solve them one by one."

"Among them, the most urgent and easiest to deal with is the Demon Clan. You have already killed all the Demon Clan's forces in the Three Realms, and the other Demon Clan members have also rushed back."

"Why not take advantage of this victory and close the gate of the Abyss, lest some demons occasionally emerge from the Abyss and impact the Western Heaven."

Jieyin nodded.

"The open gate of the Abyss is too much of a variable for us. Once the Bone Monarch in the Abyss descends upon the Three Realms again, it will be a catastrophe for our Journey to the West."

Jieyin plucked a lotus leaf from the Seven Treasures Thousand Leaf Golden Lotus in his hand. The lotus leaf shone with golden light and fell in front of the Tathagata Buddha.

"Take this lotus leaf and lead the Buddhas to completely close the gate of the Abyss."

Jieyin was in great pain. This Seven Treasures Thousand Leaf Golden Lotus was his treasure for attaining enlightenment, almost reaching the realm of a supreme innate treasure. The key was that it was closely related to him. Plucking a leaf was like cutting off a piece of flesh. How could he not feel the pain?

Zhunti frowned and said, "A lotus leaf cannot block the gate of the Abyss."

Jieyin smiled insincerely, "Please, Sage Zhunti, have mercy on the common people."

I've already bled. Can't you just watch?

Zhunti also hardened his heart and suddenly broke off his little finger!

In fact, he could have used the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree instead, but that thing had already been snatched away by Chu Hao, so... rounding it up, Chu Hao was responsible for Zhunti having to break his finger.

Zhunti hated Chu Hao to death, but he could only be impotently furious.

Even the Tathagata Buddha was shocked by the scene of a sage breaking a finger!

Was the gate of the Abyss worth a sage sacrificing his own little finger?

Zhunti took a deep breath, placed the broken finger in his palm, gently closed it, and chanted a Buddhist mantra.

After a while, a mass of golden flesh and a mass of pure white, holy ashes appeared in Zhunti's hand.

Zhunti gave the flesh and ashes to the Tathagata Buddha.

"If I don't go to hell, who will? If the Demon Clan is allowed to make a comeback, the people will suffer."

"Use these two things to build a wall, and then seal the inside of the door with the lotus leaf, and the gate of the Abyss will naturally close."

Jieyin bled profusely to close the gate of the Abyss, and Zhunti really cut off a little finger!

This was a broken finger containing the endless power of a sage.

Now, to close the gate of the Abyss, such treasures and broken fingers had to be sacrificed, which shocked the Tathagata Buddha.

However, it was no wonder that Zhunti and Jieyin had avoided mentioning the matter of closing the gate of the Abyss before. If it wasn't a last resort, who would be willing to pay so much?

"Aren't you going yet?"

The Tathagata Buddha quickly said:

"Yes! This disciple will go and do it!"

The Tathagata Buddha turned and left.

However, after the Tathagata Buddha left, Zhunti and Jieyin frowned tightly.

Zhunti looked suspicious, "Why do I feel uneasy?"

Jieyin sighed and said:

"Me too. If my lotus leaf was still there, I could use the Seven Treasures Thousand Leaf Golden Lotus to establish roots in the heaven and earth and deduce the cause of the disaster, but now it's gone."

Zhunti pinched his fingers to calculate, but when he calculated to the little finger, he found that the little finger was gone.

This could not be solved by simply switching hands. This meant that a piece of the heavenly secrets was broken, and he could not calculate what would happen next!

To calculate good fortune and misfortune, there must first be a cause before the effect can be calculated.

At this moment, the cause was that Zhunti and Jieyin wanted to seal the gate of the Abyss. They wanted to deduce the good fortune and misfortune that would follow, but they found that they could not deduce the good fortune and misfortune by other means.

This made the two of them very apprehensive.

They never expected something to happen at this time. After all, they had only suddenly felt an ominous premonition when they donated their broken finger and lotus leaf.

However, under normal circumstances, when a sage senses the heaven and earth, they can know the cause and effect when they sense an ominous premonition.

But now, the situation was that a corner of the heavenly secrets was broken, and they were in a blind spot.

Jieyin was not at ease, so he ordered the good corpse Amitabha to come and said:

"Fellow Daoist, please supervise this trip and ensure that the sealing of the gate of the Abyss does not go wrong."

Amitabha chanted a Buddhist mantra and turned to leave.

With Amitabha's supervision, Jieyin and Zhunti were relieved.

After all, Amitabha was one of his three corpses, and his strength was supreme and invincible in the Three Realms.

Unless the opponent was a sage or a supreme powerhouse in the Three Realms, it was impossible to break through Amitabha's defenses.

......

The Tathagata Buddha came to the Great Thunderclap Temple and decisively ordered:

"Peacock Great Bright King, you lead the Immovable Bright King, the Subduing Three Worlds Bright King, the Kundali Bright King, the Yamantaka Bright King, and the Vajra Yaksha Bright King, the five great Bright Kings, and set off with me to seal the gate of the Abyss!"

Speaking of sealing the gate of the Abyss, the five great Bright Kings present instantly perked up.

This was a big task. If they didn't do it well, they wouldn't be able to go home for dinner today.

However, the Peacock Great Bright King kept his head down and did not respond.

The Tathagata Buddha was displeased and frowned:

"Peacock Great Bright King, are you still thinking about the Dragon Clan's entry into the world? Stop thinking about it! The teacher will take care of it. The most urgent task is to close the gate of the Abyss first!"

The Peacock Great Bright King then slowly raised his head, "Your subordinate obeys."
