Chapter 284 - 251: Laojun Takes in a Mount
It is said that the Green Ox Demon, Rhinoceros King, used the Vajra Bracelet to capture Wukong’s magical treasure. Such treasures, accumulated from Laozi’s travels west through Hangu Pass, where he left behind the "Tao Te Ching", are postnatal magical treasures. Yet, they are far more formidable than many innate magical treasures.
Had it been an ordinary person using the Four Swords of Celestial Slaying, they would likely have their treasures seized by the Green Ox Demon with the Vajra Bracelet, a nemesis to all magical artifacts! Whether innate or postnatal, bring it on, and it takes it all! Plus, it comes with the effects of striking people, perfect for both offense and defense! Only Laojun could refine such a treasure.
Rhinoceros King took Tang Sanzang and returned to his cave abode on Golden Helmet Mountain, where his underlings tied him up.
With his cultivation level, a mere wave of his arm naturally attracted countless little demons to join him! The demon race is truly a world where the strong prey on the weak; without a powerful Great King to protect them, they could easily become prey for others.
Wukong had lost this battle and, naturally, lost face for his sect. But it couldn’t be helped, as his opponent possessed a formidable treasure; Wukong didn’t have anything like the Vajra Bracelet. Immediately, his God-Beating Whip and Jingu Bang were taken, leaving him weaponless. To fight the Rhinoceros King again would only bring disgrace on himself!
"It’s a pity that in fighting with the Rhinoceros King this time, I lost face for my master. I’m bound to be scolded by the sisters on my return. But what can I do when that fellow has the Vajra Bracelet? If only my master lent me the Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation, then the Rhinoceros King would definitely be no match for me!" Wukong thought somewhat unwillingly, but he had to admit defeat. "Alright, I might as well go find Tathagata.
"Mr. Monkey, how can this demon be so powerful that even you’re no match for him?" Sha Wujing asked.
"This fairy has quite the background, and his magical treasure is formidable, having captured both my Jingu Bang and my God-Beating Whip! I have no choice but to seek reinforcements," Wukong replied.
"I wonder whom the elder brother will seek to help? With your divine skills, even Bodhisattvas might not compare to you. If even you can’t overcome him, whom can you find?" Bajie complimented.
