All realms have enabled me to achieve the Great Dao.

Merit is not easy to accumulate. Minghui opened the system according to the prompts. The system interface is very simple, with only one screen, which displays the merit value and the realm that can be improved.

The interface showed that he had more than 6,000 merit points. Minghui did not know whether these merit points were his own or Tang Sanzang's own.

More than 6,000 merits could raise his cultivation to the Golden Core realm, but what puzzled him was how to cultivate without a cultivation method.

Then he realized that he had been studying Buddhism for so many years, but he couldn't cultivate in the real world. Now that he had come to the Journey to the West world, he must be able to cultivate.

But now is not the time for cultivation. I will wait until I rest at night to use my merits to improve my cultivation and see if the Buddhist teachings I have learned in the real world can be used in the Journey to the West world.

Zhou Yongcheng watched from the air as the new Tang Monk and Liu Er walked away. He looked at the Tang Monk's soul in his hand, wondering what to do with it. If he put the Tang Monk's soul into the reincarnation system now, it would definitely be discovered by the Western Sect.

So Zhou Yongcheng placed a restriction in Tang Sanzang's soul to prevent anyone from knowing his origins. Then he took Tang Sanzang's soul to the underworld and handed it over to Houtu.

Zhou Yongcheng instructed Houtu to cast Tang Sanzang into reincarnation, which would take place in the mortal realm. Whether Tang Sanzang could embark on the path of cultivation again depended on his luck.

After dealing with Tang Sanzang's soul, Zhou Yongcheng returned to Chang'an. He did nothing else in Chang'an; he had done what needed to be done. Now, he simply observed the development of the situation in the Journey to the West world.

It's not good to just wander around Chang'an every day; you need to find something to do to pass the time. Cultivating for hundreds or thousands of years won't make any difference.

But what kind of business could they possibly be doing in the Tang Dynasty? Opening a martial arts school? A teahouse? A supermarket?

The supermarket sells modern goods, but this is a mythological world, so there's no point in bringing modern goods to this world to sell.

In this world brimming with innate spiritual energy, even the roadside weeds taste better than any modern food.

The feed mill he runs in the real world produces feed in a world where one of the raw materials only grows in a world rich in acquired spiritual energy. If weeds from a world full of innate spiritual energy were used as raw materials, it's unimaginable how miraculous the effect would be.

Therefore, it's a joke to bring modern food to the mythical world for sale, unless it's selling spiritual fruits.

Zhou Yongcheng looked at the storage space, wondering what good things were inside.

The valuable items in the storage space cannot be sold; they are mostly Chaos-level and Primordial-level treasures.

He saw the wine gourd, and the monkey wine inside was brewed by a celestial-level monkey from a Primordial Chaos world. Seeing the monkey wine, he thought of a good idea.

You could open a small tavern in Chang'an. Although the Tang Dynasty in the Journey to the West world is not the historical Tang Dynasty, the characters are similar. Those civil and military officials are all wine lovers, so you should be able to attract them to come and drink.

Monkey wine is a divine brew, and ordinary humans cannot drink it. Not to mention ordinary humans, even ordinary gods cannot drink it.

The monkey wine needs to be diluted. To dilute it, we need to use other wines for blending. The wines in the Tang Dynasty are definitely not suitable, as the quantity is too small. We need to get a batch of high-proof wine from the real world for blending.

So Zhou Yongcheng returned to the real world, and they purchased a batch of liquor.

As evening fell in the world of Journey to the West, Minghui and his companions found a place to rest.

Liu Er took out his luggage and gave Ming Hui some of the dry food inside.

Minghui took the food and started eating. Liu Er's cultivation had already reached the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, so he didn't need to eat at all.

"Six Ears, why were you suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain?" Minghui asked.

Minghui learned from her memories that Tang Sanzang had never seriously talked to Liu Er since he released Liu Er from the Five Elements Mountain.

However, the plot of the Journey to the West world differs greatly from the events recorded in the novel, and Minghui wanted to find out more about it.

"I was eavesdropping on Buddha's sermons when Buddha discovered me, and I was then imprisoned under the Five Elements Mountain," Liu Er said, scratching his monkey face.

"Why did you go and eavesdrop on the Buddha's sermon?" Minghui asked while eating.

"I haven't practiced any cultivation techniques. All I've done so far is eavesdrop on other people's sermons and cultivate slowly. I've reached the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, but there are many things I don't know about the Taiyi realm, so I went to eavesdrop on the Buddha's sermons. I never expected to be discovered." Liu Er was still annoyed.

He hadn't expected the Quasi-Saint to be so powerful; even using his innate supernatural abilities to eavesdrop would be discovered.

Minghui nodded and started chatting with Liu Er, learning about the world of Journey to the West.

He knew about cultivation realms and also knew some things about the Journey to the West world.

What puzzled him was that most of the events matched the Journey to the West, except for the part about the pilgrimage to the West.

Could it be that the Journey to the West was disrupted by some great deity? Just like bringing him from the real world to replace Tang Sanzang, and even making him replace Buddha Tathagata to become the new Buddha.

"Have you ever heard of Sun Wukong?" Minghui asked.

"I've heard of him. He's a stone monkey, very powerful. He held a position in the Heavenly Court before I was suppressed, but I gradually stopped hearing any news about him."

It's clear to everyone that someone is secretly manipulating things, but who that person is remains unknown.

After chatting for a while, Minghui sat down to meditate and cultivate, while Liu Er stood guard beside her.

Minghui opened the system interface and clicked on "Improve Cultivation" on the page. Immediately, he felt spiritual energy being generated within his body.

He practiced according to the Buddhist techniques he learned from Buddhist scriptures, and it worked. The newly generated spiritual energy in his body circulated according to his techniques and transformed into Buddhist magic power.

Not long after, he completed his cultivation, and at this time his realm reached the perfection of Qi Refining.

He learned about cultivation realms from Liu Er. In the Journey to the West world, the cultivation realms, from lowest to highest, are Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Deity Transformation, Return to Emptiness, Body Integration, Tribulation Transcending, and Mahayana. With his merits, he can advance to the Golden Core realm, so he can advance two more realms.

Minghui clicked to improve his cultivation again, and a large amount of spiritual power appeared in his body out of thin air. He cultivated according to the technique, and soon a night passed, and his cultivation level had reached the perfection of the Golden Core Realm.

Minghui looked at the merit points in the system; she was just a little short of merit points to improve her cultivation level again.

Experiencing the perfection of the Golden Core realm in cultivation, Minghui felt how magical cultivation was, and after cultivating, he also felt the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

Minghui also discovered that after cultivating, he felt a difference in how he viewed the world and all things, because he had awakened the Wisdom Eye, which could perceive all things in the world.

It's just unknown what information he can discern with his current level of cultivation.

Minghui looked at Liu Er but couldn't see anything. It must be because Liu Er's cultivation was too high, and his level was not high enough to perceive the information of the immortals.

Liu Er looked at Ming Hui, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, and asked, "Master, you seem like a completely different person after just one night."

Minghui smiled and said, "I had some insights last night."

Liu Er looked Ming Hui up and down and asked, "Master, are you ready to cultivate?"

He did not realize that Minghui possessed any spiritual cultivation.

Minghui was taken aback. Liu Er hadn't noticed that he had been cultivating last night? There was only one possibility: the system had helped him conceal his cultivation aura.

Tang Sanzang was a mortal and could not cultivate. He could only become a Buddha after completing the journey to the West. Tang Sanzang's Buddhahood was also due to his previous life as Jin Chanzi. Otherwise, he would not have been able to become the protagonist of the journey to the West.

No, I've realized something.

Liu Er understood. After having breakfast, Minghui rode her horse towards Lingshan.
