Afterlife...
Tang Sanzang frowned deeply as he heard these nine monks who looked exactly like him addressing him in this way.
Not only him, but also Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and Xiao Bailong were also stunned at this time, not knowing what happened.
"who are you?"
Tang Sanzang glanced at the nine people, a hint of coldness appearing between his brows.
"who are we?"
"We are your past, the remnants you left behind in the years."
"We are your past life, and you are our next life! We all have the same identity - Jin Chanzi!"
At this time, the nine monks spoke together again. Even their voices were exactly the same as those of Tang Sanzang, but they were just a little more sinister and mysterious.
My previous life...
After hearing this, Tang Sanzang's heart suddenly skipped a beat!
Sha Wujing had previously said that in the past five hundred years, he had killed nine Buddhist scripture collectors from the East and made their heads into skull beads.
And those nine Buddhist scripture collectors were Tang Sanzang's nine previous lives.
If the guess is correct, the nine monks who are exactly the same as him are transformed from the remnants of his ninth life left in Liusha River, and are transformed from the nine skulls on Sha Wujing's neck!
But now, that damn Sha Wujing actually transformed the residual thoughts of his ninth life into weak water and used it against Tang Sanzang himself!
It is precisely because of this that Zhu Bajie, who had just entered the water to capture the monster, was unprepared and suffered a heavy blow!
"In that case, we can be considered the same person."
After understanding the cause and effect, Tang Sanzang nodded slightly, "I just don't know if you suddenly appeared this time, are you planning to deal with me, or are you going to return to my position with me?"
"No, no, no, you and we are one, how could we do such a thing of killing each other?"
The nine previous lives shook their heads at the same time, but their voices became more and more sinister.
"It's just that the benefactor, whose name is Sha Wujing, has been sinking in Liusha River for five hundred years. It's not easy to suffer all the time."
"And since we are members of the Buddhist sect, why don't we carry forward my Buddha's great wish to save all sentient beings, sacrifice ourselves to help them escape from the sea of suffering, and become a Buddha?"
The words spoken by the nine people acted as Sha Wujing's words, expressing their original purpose.
"So, doesn't it mean that I should take the initiative to offer the head on my neck and turn it into the tenth skull prayer bead in his hand?"
After hearing this, Tang Sanzang snorted coldly.
"Isn't it good that this is the case?"
"By offering your head, you can help him become a Buddha as soon as possible. Secondly, it can also reunite us in ten lifetimes and become one body on the same Buddha line. Isn't it wonderful to have the best of both worlds?"
The gloomy voices of the nine people sounded again, but it also made Tang Sanzang completely lose his patience in arguing with them.
His eyes bypassed the nine previous lives and looked into the depths of Liusha River.
Sha Wujing, who had escaped to the bottom of the water, resurfaced at this time.
At this moment, his body was covered in scars, and gurgling blood continued to seep from his body.
But his hands were holding the string of skull beads, and he kept chanting some unknown scripture.
Following his move, the nine skulls immediately emitted bursts of Buddha's light, which were in harmony with Tang Sanzang's nine previous lives.
"Sha Wujing, you are so brave, how dare you use my past life to deal with me!"
Seeing this, Tang Sanzang's eyes burned with anger.
He knew very well in his heart that his nine past lives were actually dead long ago, and what appeared in front of him at this time was just a puppet with remnants of his past life, a puppet controlled by Sha Wujing!
And Sha Wujing's purpose in doing this was ultimately to deal with himself!
This made Tang Sanzang feel very unhappy, and he also hated his future disciple to the extreme.
"If I want to become a Buddha, I must first kill myself and become a demon! This is an irreversible curse imposed on me by the Jade Emperor!"
"If you don't die, how can I become a Buddha? If I become a Buddha, I must use the blood and bones of saints as stepping stones!"
"Tang Sanzang, don't blame me. This is a fate that you and I cannot escape..."
Sha Wujing was still reciting the scriptures. Although he did not speak, under his will, the nine previous lives in front of him opened their lips and teeth and conveyed his wishes and requests.
"Sha Wujing, are you really not afraid that I will kill you with my own hands?"
Hearing these words, Tang Sanzang showed anger and murderous intent.
"Kill me? Of course I'm afraid."
"But don't forget that all your nine paths were killed by me in your previous life, and now they are all under my control. If I die, they will cease to exist!"
"So if you kill me, you are also killing yourself!"
At this time, the nine previous lives in front of them spoke one after another, conveying the will of Sha Wujing from the Liusha River.
"Tang Sanzang, I used the dead souls of Liusha Kingdom to deal with you before, but you were stone-hearted and decisive in killing me."
"Now, if I use the remnants of your past life against yourself, can you continue to be cold-blooded and ruthless?"
The words from Sha Wujing resounded through the mouth of his previous life, but they also made Tang Sanzang look solemn.
He is not from this world, let alone his past life, he doesn't even know much about his own present life.
If you are more ruthless and decisive, you won't have much psychological burden even if you completely wipe out the remnants of your past life.
But after all, he is not such a cold and decisive person.
Facing these nine remnants of his past life who had the same appearance, same aura, and the same origin as himself, he still couldn't bear to be cruel.
"So Sha Wujing, what exactly do you want to do?"
With this thought in mind, Tang Sanzang asked him, his words finally softer than before.
"It's easy, fight me!"
Sha Wujing's words resounded through the mouth of his previous life, "Let your disciples stay away from you, and let you and I fight openly and openly in this quicksand river!"
"If I win, your head will become my tenth skull prayer bead! And if I kill all ten generations of sutra collectors, I will be able to get rid of the suffering of the seven swords piercing the heart, achieve righteousness, and become a Buddha immediately!"
"If you win, you will be able to obtain the inheritance of the past nine lives, achieve righteousness and reshape your body. This will be an infinite blessing!"
In the previous battles, Tang Sanzang did not take any action in a real sense except to use Buddhism to save the completely dead souls.
In Sha Wujing's eyes, he seemed to be a soft persimmon that could be manipulated at will!
"Master, this evil monk is capricious and has no martial ethics. You must not listen to his evil words to confuse the public!"
"Yes, Master, you'd better let me kill him with a rake, so as not to have to dream too much at night!"
"I...I think the same as the first and second senior brothers!"
After hearing the conversation between the two, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and Xiao Bailong quickly began to persuade them.
Although this demon monk Daoxing is only a golden immortal, he was once a general who served the Jade Emperor.
Although it has lost its former glory, the city is exceptionally deep.
His methods are endless, and he not only controls the weak waters of a river, but also controls the master's nine previous lives.
If we leave them alone and fight this guy alone, I'm afraid that instead of losing any chance of victory, Master will end up in jail, and even burn down his current trip to the West!
"It doesn't matter, you just step back and let me fulfill his long-cherished wish!"
However, the three disciples wanted to say something more, but Tang Sanzang shook his head and rejected their kindness.
"Nine past lives, and Sha Wujing, they are the key to my destiny on my journey to the west!"
"Since this is a fateful battle, I should resolve it myself, so why should I rely on the help of all my beloved disciples?"
Tang Sanzang seemed to have understood something, and then said this to the three of them.
Even though the three of them had tens of thousands of worries, their master had made up their minds. No matter how much they felt it was inappropriate, they could only obey his orders.
After some tangle, the three of them exchanged looks, and finally retreated one after another, exiting the Baili boundary, leaving the huge Liusha River area to Tang Sanzang and Sha Wujing.
"The holy monk can fight with me alone, the young monk is very impressed!"
"In this case, there is no need for you and me to talk nonsense, just see the real chapter in our hands!"
