Journey to the West: Break the entire Western Heaven!-Chapter 249 - 149: The Secret of Tian Peng
The White Dragon Horse was very frustrated, but someone was even more frustrated!
In the depths of the far-flung starry sky, there was a cerulean planet, with only a patch of land less than ten kilometers in size.
At this moment, a bald man was sitting there, staring blankly at the endless stars. Then he clapped his hands and jumped a bit, before finally losing his patience and cursing, "Tang Sanzang, you’ve gone too far!
Across the sea, I could still practice swimming; I still had hope of returning.
But you cast me out here, how do you expect me to get back?
By flying?
I can’t practice cultivation, okay?!
Kasaya!
Buddha!
Bodhisattva?!
Can any of you hear me?
Help!
It’s so boring here!!"
...
After a while... Tang Sanzang calmed down.
"My kasaya ensures that I won’t suffocate in the starry sky... but that’s about all it does. First, I need to fast; second, I must be able to leap into the high sky to enter the stars…" Having thought this, Tang Sanzang turned to look at a large rock beside him.
From that day on, he began training every day to lift a large rock and jump increasingly higher…

At the same time, someone else was also very unhappy!
"What? Father isn’t here?" Hua Lin looked at the Official of Spiritual Beings in surprise.
The Official of Spiritual Beings replied, "The Jade Emperor left the Hall of Miraculous Mist this morning, and his specific whereabouts are unknown. Princess, if you have any matters, you can tell me."
Hua Lin looked at the Official of Spiritual Beings before her but ultimately shook her head and said, "Forget it… It’s useless telling you. At most you’d be able to handle a monkey…"
Shaking her head, Hua Lin turned and left.
However, the more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Eventually, her gaze fell upon the palace of the Queen Mother, and she strode towards it decisively.
As a result…
"Her Majesty is not here."
"Mother is also absent?" Hua Lin was stunned. Wasn’t this too much of a coincidence?
Usually, both the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother would be present. But when she needed them, they were both nowhere to be found.
Feeling irritated, Hua Lin could only go back and explain the situation to her sisters.
...
On the road to the Western Heaven, a bald man rode a fat-headed, big-eared black pig on the path to the West.
At the pig’s side, a lame white horse stood on its hind legs, carrying a burden and said miserably, "Second Brother, why did you have to make a bet, set a military order, and cause such a fuss? It’s one thing for you to suffer, but now I have to carry your luggage…"
The big black pig snorted and rolled its eyes, pretending not to hear.
Taking the place of the White Dragon Horse to become Tang Sanzang’s mount was Zhu Ganglie’s punishment for failing to catch seven female demons.
Zhu Ganglie was full of resentment about this…

Were those even demons?
They were all celestial maidens, okay?

However, he didn’t dare to argue with Tang Sanzang, so he had no choice but to accept it.
At the side, the Six-Eared Macaque said to Tang Sanzang, "Master, according to the script for the eighty-one trials, the seven female demons in the Web Silk Cave have an elder brother who lives not far to the west of the Web Silk Cave, in a Taoist temple called the Yellow Flower Temple, known as the Hundred-eyed Demon Lord."
Sun Wukong, shading his eyes with his hand, pointed towards the distance and said, "The Yellow Flower Temple Little Six mentioned is probably over there! However, looking at that place, it seems completely deserted, most likely abandoned. Master, please stay here at ease, I’ll go and scout ahead for you."
Tang Sanzang asked the Six-Eared Macaque, "Little Six, is this Hundred-eyed Demon Lord male or female?"
"Male," replied the Six-Eared Macaque.
Tang Sanzang then asked, "What kind of demon is he? Good or bad?"
The Six-Eared Macaque replied, "He’s a centipede spirit, not particularly good or bad, just normal."
Tang Sanzang nodded and said, "I see, let’s leave him be then."
The Six-Eared Macaque added, "However, the Hundred-eyed Demon Lord and those seven spider spirits have a relationship of elder brother and younger sisters. They might have abandoned their nest and sought refuge there."
Tang Sanzang instantly became interested!
However, Sun Wukong was already back, "Master, I’ve checked, there’s no one there."
Tang Sanzang immediately lost interest, and patted Zhu Ganglie’s head saying, "Big Black, let’s move quickly. Before the news spreads fully, let’s catch those demons who haven’t fled yet off guard!"
What could Zhu Ganglie say? He could only run headlong with a gloomy face.
On the way, Tang Sanzang suddenly knocked on Zhu Ganglie’s head and asked, "Wufan, what’s this seal on you all about?"
Zhu Ganglie shook his head and said, "This... Master, I... don’t quite know how to explain."
Tang Sanzang said, "It’s okay, just tell me."
Zhu Ganglie thought for a moment and said, "Master, despite appearances of peace and tranquility in this world, things are not so peaceful. Take the Heavenly River I belonged to for example...
People think it’s a divine river of the Heaven Realm, and so it must be peaceful and uneventful.
But they don’t consider, if it were really peaceful, why would the celestial court station six hundred thousand celestial soldiers and generals there?"
"Isn’t it sixty thousand?" Sun Wukong said.
Zhu Ganglie shook his head, "They say sixty thousand publicly, but in reality, there are six hundred thousand."
Sun Wukong said in surprise, "When they fought against my Flower Fruit Mountain back then, they only summoned one hundred thousand celestial soldiers and generals... Yet they stationed six hundred thousand in the Heavenly River. Could it be that there’s something terrifying in the river?"
Zhu Ganglie nodded and said, "Indeed, this matter is a secret and most are unaware of it. Below the Heavenly River, there is a stone gate suppressing a passage to another world among the three thousand great worlds. That other world is home to a race—the Aquatic Tribe.
Master, don’t salivate, the Aquatic Tribe I’m referring to is not what we know as beings transformed from fish and shrimp in water, but a race that looks exactly like humans yet is born with the ability to manipulate water.
This race is not pleasant to look at, with grave faces and emitting an aura of death. The dead water they control can pollute a whole river with just a drop, killing all living creatures within.
We were there to suppress the Aquatic Tribe."
Sun Wukong asked curiously, "Have you seen the Aquatic Tribe?"
Zhu Ganglie shook his head and said, "I haven’t seen them... It’s just hearsay."
At this moment, Sha Wujing said, "I’ve also heard of the Aquatic Tribe, a bloodthirsty race with extremely powerful combat abilities. They are said to be comparable to the Yakshas of the blood rivers…"
Tang Sanzang said, "If they are a menace, why don’t those invincible Saints you speak of eradicate them?"
Zhu Ganglie shook his head and said, "After a great battle back in the day, the entire world crumbled. Since then, the Saints have agreed not to interfere with anything in the world, naturally including not acting against the Aquatic Tribe."
"What about the celestial court? Aren’t they very strong?" Tang Sanzang asked again.
Zhu Ganglie gave a bitter smile and said, "The celestial court is indeed powerful, but the Aquatic Tribe does not leave the stone gate, only shrinking back in their world. It is said that the Great Emperor Gouchen once entered the stone gate to battle the Aquatic Tribe and emerged wounded...
The Aquatic Tribe took the opportunity to break out, intending to enter the Earth Immortals Realm.
Fortunately, the Jade Emperor intervened, suppressed the Aquatic Tribe, and drove them back through the stone gate.
Since then, no one has entered the world of the Aquatic Tribe.
We were assigned by the Jade Emperor to suppress the stone gate in the Heavenly River at that time."
