Chapter 295: Chapter 264 Zhu Geliang Strikes the White Bone Spirit Three Times

Sun Wukong deduced the relationship between the Black Bear Demon and Bodhisattva Guanyin, but he still wanted to see what the netizens had to say about it.

So, he opened the Persuasive System, connected his consciousness to Zhihu, and posted his inquiry.

"I am Sun Wukong, I just saw Lu Bu defeat the Black Bear Demon with impressive bravery, flattening Black Wind Mountain, but I have some suspicions about the origins of the Black Bear Demon. Dare I ask the seniors here, what is the relationship between this demon and Bodhisattva Guanyin?"

At the same time, he briefly recounted the process of Lu Bu’s battle with the Black Bear Demon, including the demon’s attempt to escape using the Earth Fleeing Golden Light technique.

Soon, many replies appeared.

Mister Troll: "Are you kidding, Lu Bu beating the Black Bear Demon? In the world of the Journey to the West, the Black Bear Demon’s combat power is among the top of the demon clan. The monkey fought him from dawn till dusk without deciding a winner, and in the end, it was only with the help of Bodhisattva Guanyin that the demon was subdued."

Autumn Breeze Rises: "In the original timeline, the Black Bear Demon is one of the few demons who could fight Wukong to a draw. You can compare him to Yang Erlang..."

Far Traveler No Return: "That sounds a bit far-fetched, Lu Bu hasn’t cultivated for that long. A Martial God’s strength is equivalent to that of a Heavenly Immortal in the Daoist path, and even with the fortune of the Han Dynasty on his side, it’s not like he could just decapitate the Black Bear Demon by himself."

"Hey, don’t believe it?" Sun Wukong scratched his face, this was what actually happened, could it be false?

The Black Bear Demon was indeed powerful, but where was his disciple Lu Bu lacking?

Don’t talk nonsense, please.

The Square Sky Halberd, Suan Ni Armor, and the Locking God Ring that finally trapped the Black Bear Demon were all top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures that he had custom made for his disciple.

Moreover, the fortune of the Han Dynasty was indeed formidable. With Liu Xiu, the man who would be king, having strength close to a Quasi-Saint, wasn’t it normal for Lu Bu, who ranked fourth among the vassals of the Han Dynasty and was the Marquis of Wen, to have strength comparable to that of a Daluo Golden Immortal?

Sun Wukong replied with these details, and many netizens responded with praises like "awesome, amazing, amazing."

He continued to look at other replies.

Exquisite Words: "Wow, so the Demon King of Black Wind was a manifestation of Bodhisattva Guanyin?"

Skypillar Primordial: "Damn, no wonder in the Journey to the West, when Bodhisattva Guanyin turned into a snake demon, Sun Wukong said, ’Is it a Bodhisattva transforming into a demon, or a demon turning into a Bodhisattva?’"

Rolling Qiu Gengxin: "It must be one of the three thousand transformations of Guanyin."

Three Treasures Product: "The Black Bear Demon has the strength of a Daluo Golden Immortal; it can’t simply be one of the three thousand transformations. Otherwise, the strength of Bodhisattva Guanyin’s true form would be too monstrous."

Anonymous User Forty-Seven: "Yeah, if it were just a simple manifestation, there’d be no need to waste a Binding Headband."

Paper Kite: "It’s not just a simple manifestation; the fact that Guanyin spat blood and fell in cultivation clearly indicates it’s an evil corpse born from severing her three corpses."

"She spat blood and fell in cultivation?" Sun Wukong was somewhat surprised.

You should know, with his current strength, he’d only guessed that this demon was an evil corpse manifestation of Guanyin based on the abnormal behavior of the Black Bear Demon during the battle.

And this netizen, through layers of time and space, had directly seen Guanyin vomit blood, obviously, this was another netizen with vast divine skills, a saint from some other world!

But speaking of which, in order to earn the trust of the Buddha Sect and the ruler of Tianzhu, Guanyin really went all out, probably convincing even herself, right?

"Hehe..." Sun Wukong’s eyes twinkled as he blinked. He had specifically instructed Lu Bu not to harm the Black Bear Demon’s life; otherwise, how could the battle have lasted so long, requiring the use of the Locking God Ring to trap the demon before decapitating him.

In the end, Lu Bu used the Qiankun Bag to collect the bodies of the Black Bear Demon, Ling Xuzi, the White Snake, and Elder Stay Cloud, which was precisely for this reason.

Because the Primordial Spirit of the Black Bear Demon had been trapped within the Locking God Ring and had not truly perished.

He looked at more replies.

Silly Adorable Fluffy: "The evil corpse manifestation theory does make sense. In the original timeline, the Black Bear Demon, because of his greed, stole Tang Sanzang’s kasaya, and twenty miles away there was a greedy elder in the Golden Pond of Guanyin Chan Monastery."

Combining this with what Guanyin herself said, that it was her Stay Cloud Lower Court, it’s certain she used to cultivate there.

Greed is an evil thought, and it’s likely that Guanyin cut off her evil corpse there, leaving the Black Bear Demon, who was the manifestation of the evil corpse, on Black Wind Mountain.

Furthermore, the two companions of the Black Bear Demon, the Gray Wolf Ling Xuzi and the White Flower Snake Demon the White Snake, one with the ambition of a wolf pup and the other with a venomous snake-like heart, both represent a kind of evil thought.

So, it’s possible they too were evil thoughts left behind by Guanyin’s severed evil corpse."

Holder of the Alms Bottle: "All evils arise from greed. If greed is not kept within certain bounds, even a good person can turn evil.

So Guanyin, in the end, taking the Black Bear Demon back to be the Mountain Guardian Deity of Mount Luojia’s rear mountain actually symbolizes keeping greed in check and not allowing it to harm the world."

Expert View: "That makes sense. In the original timeline, when Wukong calls out ’Demon Bodhisattva, Bodhisattva Demon,’ Guanyin says ’Bodhisattva Demon, it’s all but a thought. When traced back to the source, they arise from nothing.’

This shows the difference between a Bodhisattva and a Demon is just a fleeting thought.

On the front mountain of Mount Luojia, because the heart leans towards goodness, the heart is a ’kind heart,’ and the demon becomes a Bodhisattva;

On the rear mountain of Mount Luojia, if the Bodhisattva still has greed, the heart becomes a ’greedy heart,’ and the Bodhisattva becomes a Demon."

Every Day Six Hours: "Holy shit, what an amazing analysis."

"Mmm, indeed impressive." Sun Wukong also agreed with the statements from these netizens, just as he had thought before, there were still many secrets hidden along the way to the West!

Next, Lu Bu led his army past Black Wind Mountain, swept through Fuling Mountain Cloud Terrace Cave, annihilating a group of demons there, then razed Mount Futu and marched straight for the capital of Ussang Country.

And through the previous battle between Lu Bu and the Black Bear Demon, various forces had witnessed the real power of martial arts, and many started to revisit and study martial arts seriously.
