Chapter 243: Chapter 244 Golden Horn and Silver Horn Still Do Not Convert

Watching the three little demons furiously charge towards Xuanzang.

However, what they failed to notice was that Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and Sand Monk did not rush over to protect their master, but calmly watched the scene unfold.

"Amitabha Buddha, how good, how good, why must the three benefactors act this way? You should not harbor such harmful intentions. Now that you have encountered this humble monk here, I am willing to help you convert and take refuge in Buddhism!"

Xuanzang brought his palms together, his face showing a compassionate expression.

"Are you crazy, monk? We are demons, how could we possibly believe in Buddhism, die!"

"After we kill this monk, we’ll have a nice meal to take back to our Great King!"

The three little demons, full of rage, charged directly at Xuanzang, their claws reaching out to strike.

The three little demons looked fierce and menacing, and in the blink of an eye, they had closed in on Xuanzang, intending to shred him to pieces. However, before their sharp claws could fall.

They saw Xuanzang raise his hand, and a powerful force swept out, a terrifying power erupted.

A vast Buddhist Law spread forth.

His palm was filled with the intense fire of Buddhist law, and behind Xuanzang appeared to be a Buddha, sitting in meditation just behind him.

And if one looked carefully, it seemed that this Buddha was condensed from countless Buddhas.

Furthermore, the sound of countless Buddhist chants echoed in the void.

Within it lay endless Daoist charm, utterly profound.

Beneath such an aura, the three little demons, who were originally about to approach and annihilate Xuanzang, felt the force of this powerful aura and.

Their expressions changed involuntarily, and then they were overwhelmed by the endless Buddhist chanting that entered their ears, leaving them somewhat unable to react.

The desire to kill and anger in their hearts disappeared completely under this aura.

They suddenly felt an inclination to convert.

Especially upon hearing the continuous Buddhist chanting from Xuanzang’s mouth, grand and extensive, filled with the world’s great wisdom.

The three little demons had no room to resist, infinite profundities arose in their hearts, and it was as though a Great Buddha sat within their hearts.

They showed sincere devotion, and a sense of remorse for their past actions filled their eyes.

Looking at Xuanzang before them, they all brought their palms together and their faces showed compassion.

From a distance, watching this scene, Sun Wukong nodded his head and said in admiration, "The master is indeed the master!"

Sand Monk also let out a sigh of relief. He had been a bit worried, but now there was no need; the master was strong and there was no reason for them to worry.

"Who would have thought that the master could truly convert anyone!"

Sand Monk also put his palms together, listening to the Buddhist chants from his master, he too felt a sense of conversion, although, being the Great General Who Lifts the Curtain, he could resist a little.

Otherwise, he might have betrayed the Celestial Court and converted to Buddhism, becoming utterly devoted to Xuanzang.

"Do you understand now?"

At this moment, Xuanzang spoke slowly.

Upon hearing this, the three little demons responded in unison, bringing their palms together: "Disciple understands!"

Their voices were somewhat complicated.

They were just patrolling the mountains and had not expected to be converted by a monk, to take refuge.

They had originally planned to capture Xuanzang and present him to their Great King, but now they had no such thoughts anymore.

Looking at the expressions of the three little demons, Xuanzang too showed a satisfied look on his face.

"Amitabha Buddha, the three benefactors have shown true repentance and kindness, and this humble monk is deeply gratified!"

Xuanzang nodded his head, his palms together, and thought that by the time they reached Western Heaven, his congregation would surely grow significantly.

"Amitabha Buddha, Elder, there are not only us three demons in this mountain, but others as well, and they are still lost!"

The Wolf Demon at this moment had a sincere look in his eyes, and radiated some Buddha’s light, looking like a great enlightened monk.

"Amitabha Buddha, as the saying goes ’If I do not go to Hell, who will?’ Despite the dangers of these mountains, how can this humble monk let them continue to be lost? Lead the way quickly!"

Xuanzang’s face was filled with compassion, and he looked dignified.

"Good, Elder, please follow me!"

Xuanzang and Sun Wukong along with the others followed the three demons deeper into the mountain.

That day, on Flat Top Mountain, the sound of Buddhist chanting filled the air as if countless Buddhas were sitting in meditation, their chanting spreading endless profundities and Daoist charm, seemingly transforming the great mountain into a Buddha Land.

Amidst the vast Buddhist chanting, many demons could not help but shed tears of remorse and since then took refuge in Buddhism, entering the monastic life.

These demons had killed countless people.

But on this day, they all put down their butcher knives and instantly attained Buddhahood.

"Damn you, you accursed Xuanzang, you actually converted all my little demons, this is outrageous!"

The Silver Horn King was immensely angry.

Because Flat Top Mountain was vast, the Silver Horn King could only disperse his little demons throughout, never expecting that all his demons would be converted.

Not only that, but what was even more infuriating was that Xuanzang started asking those converted little demons about the whereabouts of more hidden demons, continuing the conversion process.

He acted as if he wanted to turn the entire Flat Top Mountain into a Buddha Land.

The key was that after simply hearing a segment of scripture, these little demons had no chance of resisting at all. It was as if their souls had evolved, completely bewitching them into Buddhism.

In the eyes of the Silver Horn King, this was not conversion, it was brainwashing.

Upon learning of this, the Silver Horn King did not hesitate to prepare to take action.

However, he was stopped by the Golden Horn King.

"Big brother, why are you stopping me? Let me capture all these monks together!"

The Silver Horn King said with unparalleled anger.

"If you go now, aren’t you afraid of being converted as well?"

The Golden Horn King said with a frown, "Even our mother, the Yalong Great Immortal, has been converted by that monk. What makes you think you can withstand it?"

The Golden Horn King was filled with grief and anger, and his entire being radiated fury and murderous intent.

On discovering that Xuanzang was drawing close, to deal with Xuanzang he had sent a little demon to Yalong Mountain, Yalong Cave, to summon the Yalong Great Immortal, preparing to capture Xuanzang and then share his flesh.

The Yalong Great Immortal should have arrived at Lotus Cave today.

But just upon reaching the foot of the mountain, she was converted by Xuanzang.

Compared to those little demons, their mother had already transformed into a human form.

Their white-haired, elderly mother also had her full head of white hair shaved off by Xuanzang, thoroughly converting to Buddhism.

Is this still a monk? This is even more wicked than these demons.

More demonic than demons.

Fortunately, a clever little demon returned earlier with the Frontier Rope amidst this situation; otherwise, if it were taken by that monk, their trouble would have been even greater.

After hearing the words of the Golden Horn King, the Silver Horn King was at a loss for words for a moment, looking at the demons inside the cave, there weren’t many remaining. Most of the Demon Race were already huddling together, shrinking back in fear.

They were terrified of Xuanzang outside to the extreme.

They also understood that with their strength, once they went out, they were likely to face inevitable conversion.

This was not the monk they were supposed to capture, it was clear this monk was bent on their utter annihilation, leaving them no chance at life.

The Silver Horn King frowned and said, "So what do we do? Wait for that monk to come here?"

The Golden Horn King also couldn’t help but feel conflicted, he did not know either.

He originally thought that even if this monk was troublesome, with treasures at hand, subduing Xuanzang would still be a breeze, but now they realized how much they underestimated this monk.

"Amitabha Buddha, Elder, please come this way. This mountain’s Great King is in this direction, right in the Lotus Cave up ahead!"

Just at this moment, the voices of some little demons came from outside.

Following these voices, Xuanzang’s voice also arose at this time.

"Amitabha Buddha, honorable benefactors, please come out quickly and accept conversion!"

Clearly, Xuanzang was brought here by the already converted demons, with some demons even joining Xuanzang in calling them out to undergo conversion.

"Great King, this monk is simply too presumptuous, completely disregarding you!"

"Is this still conversion of demons? This is clearly a slap in your face, Great King. You must stand up for us!"

Upon hearing the commotion outside, a Centipede Spirit little demon hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, sobbing his grievances to the Silver Horn King and the Golden Horn King.

In these mountains, they could only rely on the Golden Horn King and the Silver Horn King.

If even the Golden Horn King and the Silver Horn King can’t handle Xuanzang, the only outcome for them would be to convert to Buddhism.

"Big brother, now that monk has come to our doorstep, we absolutely cannot sit still and wait for death!"

The Silver Horn King looked towards the Golden Horn King; although countless little demons had already converted, they could not simply bow their heads and give up on dealing with these monks.

The key was that they still had many treasures on them.

"That’s right, fetch my Purple Gold Gourd and Jade Pure Bottle!"

The Golden Horn King stood up with a determined expression.

Then two little demons brought up the Purple Gold Gourd and the Jade Pure Bottle.

This gourd originated from the Chaos that preceded the Creation of Heaven and Earth when the Taiqing Daode Tianzun and others found a celestial vine under Kunlun Mountains.

It bore seven gourds, each obtained by numerous powerful figures.

One of which came into the possession of the Taiqing Daode Tianzun.

After the Divine Enthronement Calamity, Saints faded into the background, and the celestial court was overseen by the Taiqing’s incarnation, the Grand Elder of the Supreme Way.

And this Purple Gold Gourd hence landed in the hands of the Grand Elder of the Supreme Way, which was taken down to the lower realm by Golden Horn and Silver Horn from the celestial Court.

Sun Wukong once pilfered this gourd, but later, the Grand Elder of the Supreme Way took it back again.

The Golden Horn King grabbed the Purple Gold Gourd, and the Silver Horn King grabbed the Jade Pure Bottle, and the two demons walked out of the Lotus Cave.

They refused to believe that they couldn’t subdue that monk with these treasures in hand.

As they exited, they saw on the rugged mountain path, a delicate monk surrounded by a throng of little demons was approaching.

His eyes were filled with wisdom and tranquility. Just one glance was enough to bring peace of mind.

"Won’t you convert?"
