I start by accepting Sun Wukong as my disciple and reshape the Journey to the West

Chapter 42 You Are Not a Human

"Where do you come from, young man?"

A voice came from the bottom of Tongtian River. The voice was hoarse and low, and dim, as if it came from a ghost town.

Before the sound faded, a black sword flew out from above Tongtian River. The sword was three feet six inches and a half long, with a green lotus engraved on it. There were hundreds of magical chains on the hilt to restrain it.

"An ancient divine artifact, the Qingping Sword! It is Xuantian's honor to be able to see it today!"

A phantom appeared on the Qingping Sword. The phantom sat upright in the void with his eyes closed. Tens of thousands of heavenly chains pierced through his body, and one chain pierced through his scapula.

"My friend, I once sensed your presence at the dawn of time. I never imagined you could survive the Conferred God Tribulation without being noticed by Heaven!"

"Ye Xuantian has met the Sage Tongtian!"

hum!
A green light surged on the Qingping Sword, and a sword beam flew towards Ye Xuantian. Ye Xuantian did not dodge, and the sword beam stopped five meters in front of Ye Xuantian.

"Young friend, you know of my existence? Indeed, since you can see the Qingping Sword, it shouldn't be difficult to guess my identity! Since you know my identity and want to help me remove the seal, aren't you afraid that the Heavenly Dao will trace your origins and hunt you down and kill you?"

The voice within the sword light was full of inquiry.

Ye Xuantian narrowed his eyes slightly. "I never thought that the Heavenly Dao would seal off the Saint to this extent. He only spoke a few words before the power of Heavenly Dao enveloped his true meaning. He could only transmit his voice through sword energy."

"If Heaven wanted to kill me, they would have done it long ago. I came here today only to establish a good relationship with the Saint. In the future, when my useless disciple comes here, it will be time to collect his merits. Then, I will have him remove the Saint's seal."

The sword remained motionless for a long time before he continued, "It wasn't Heaven that suppressed me here, but Hongjun, the Dao Ancestor of Hongmeng! He's not dead yet. If you rashly break the seal, He will surely notice. Then Heaven will respond. I appreciate your kindness, but don't waste your efforts."

"The saint's words of teaching without distinction were deeply admired by the human race, and I am one of them. Now that I know that the saint did not perish in the Conferred God Tribulation, I will naturally take action to save him."

"Does the acquired human race admire my teachings?" The voice in the sword light had a little more emotion, not as cold as before.

"Indeed! The saint's teachings have influenced generations of humanity. Even after being deified, your story is still widely circulated. Don't you want to see the prosperity of today?"

"A prosperous and flourishing age! My friend's words make me feel full. Although I am sealed at the bottom of Tongtian River, it does not mean that I am blind. Since the Conferred God, every saint has probably been replaced by the Dao Ancestor and become a puppet of the Heavenly Dao!"

"When a saint falls, heaven and earth mourn together. When a saint is in harmony with the Tao, all things will wither! Today's human race has probably entered the Dharma Ending Age. The two saints in the West have always cared only about themselves and not about the human race! I believe that after the new catastrophe is over, it will be extremely difficult for the human race to become an immortal!" There was a bit of sadness in the voice of Tongtian Sect Master.

"It is precisely because of this that the saint should come forward and take charge, right?" Ye Xuantian persuaded.

"Didn't I tell you that the seal on me was placed by Daozu Hongjun himself? If you try to break it by force, I will definitely ask Hongjun to take action!"

"So today I will release the earth's resentful energy into the Tongtian River. Thousands of years will be enough for this earth's resentful energy to break the chains of the Heavenly Dao without being noticed by Daozu and the Heavenly Dao! In the future, my disciple will use the power of the calamity and the power of destiny to dissolve all the chains on the saint!"

"Your methods are in accordance with the Way of Heaven, yet they flow naturally. You have already found the true meaning of the Way. Even I can only admire you. Today, the resentment of the Earth was so pure that I almost thought you were the spokesperson for the Earth. I will remember your kindness today. In the future, if you have any requests, as long as I can do it, I will do my best to help you."

Ye Xuantian bowed and saluted: Thank you very much, Saint!

The sword light began to slowly retract: "I am shocked that the human race today dares to resist the way of heaven. To be recognized by the way of earth and humanity is even more like a saint. When we meet again in the future, maybe I will call you: Immortal!" The sword light sank into the shadow of the Tongtian Saint, and then slowly sank to the bottom of the Tongtian River with the Qingping Sword.

"Fellow Daoist, you have great means to be able to come here and lay down the plan. Tongtian admires you, but the great rivers and lakes are lonely. If you really understand an old man like me, I wonder if you could give it to someone who can relieve his boredom!"

There was also a voice of Tongtian Saint that was gradually fading away. This was the cause and effect that Tongtian Saint gave him. As long as he agreed, Tongtian Saint would enter the catastrophe as Ye Xuantian had thought.

"Yes, I have a disciple named Bangni. As soon as the seal of Tongtian River is opened, he will be the first to come and chat with the Saint!"

Ah!
The response from the Sage Tongtian was barely audible, but Ye Xuantian heard it clearly.

In this way, he has also taken control of Tongtian River, which is particularly important to him. After all, the true scriptures have no words, and he needs to find a suitable place to intercept the merits of Western missionaries.

The Sage Tongtian obviously has such strength.

Of course, the most crucial point is that this is the fourth shackle of the tunnel. Only when the shackles here of Tongtian Sage are also unlocked can the greatest power of the tunnel be released.

That’s right, it’s the fourth one!

The first one fell into Wuzhuang Temple, the second one fell into the East China Sea, and the fourth one fell into Tongtian River.

As for the third one, Ye Xuantian looked towards the direction of the Black Chicken Kingdom. When leaving the East China Sea, Ye Xuantian had promised Ao Guang that as long as Ao Guang was willing to let Wukong get the Zhenhai Divine Needle, then the merit should be shared by all four seas.

The reason why he was so sure was that the dragon clan not only held an authentic cause and effect in the East China Sea, but also had a glazed well and an underground shackle in the Black Chicken Kingdom during the westward calamity.

This time when Ye Xuantian went to Xiniu Hezhou, he wanted to see whether Jin Chanzi was going to face the calamity, and secondly, he wanted to start making plans to lift the seal on the tunnel.

Now that we have obtained the authentic resentful power of Wuzhuang Temple and dropped it on Tongtian River, we are basically halfway to success.

Now, as long as he arranges the karma of the Glazed Well, he will be halfway successful. Ye Xuantian immediately headed towards the Wuji Kingdom.

It is only said that at this time the Kingdom of Black Chicken had not yet been fully formed in this world, and even the royal family was not left behind. However, for the sake of clarity, it is temporarily referred to as the territory of the Kingdom of Black Chicken.

At first glance, there are only a few humans living here, and it looks very desolate.

These people built houses and walls and barely formed a village. In the center of the village, there was an octagonal well that was enough to provide drinking water for the people here.

At this time, there was a young man at the wellhead. He was dressed in white and looked very noble. He seemed out of place compared to the people here who were still wearing linen clothes.

Ye Xuantian landed beside the young man: "Little brother, why are you just standing there in a daze?"

The moment the young man saw Ye Xuantian, his eyes lit up: "Uncle, you are not a human!"
