Chapter 128: Xuan Ming’s Chance Encounter with a Meditation Cushion
Speaking of Xuan Ming achieving sainthood, they resolved the crisis at Water Curtain Cave and captured the Nine-Headed Worm.
The Nine-Headed Worm was thrown directly to Wukong for handling. Wukong recited an incantation that tormented the Nine-Headed Worm half to death until he forced its true form out, and then he stopped. Wukong asked, "Would you care to serve as my mount?"
The Nine-Headed Worm cursed, "Pah! The enmity of killing my father is irreconcilable!"
Wukong gave a peculiar smile and said, "Clearly, it was I who spared your life last time, yet you had your parents come trouble me and then your father was killed by someone else. Yet you blame me? Heh, you truly are stubborn! Back then, I, Old Sun, suffered greatly under this Tightening-Crown Spell, completely subdued by that bald monk without any temper left!"
Upon hearing Wukong’s words, the Nine-Headed Worm was about to curse loudly, but before he could start, he heard Wukong recite the incantation.
The Nine-Headed Worm immediately writhed in pain on the ground, screaming as if being slaughtered.
Wukong let out a strange laugh and said, "Do you submit now?"
The Nine-Headed Worm was tormented by the Tight Band to the point of fainting multiple times, but each time, Wukong revived him by splashing cold water on him.
After being tortured over and over again about seven or eight times, the Nine-Headed Worm completely lost its temper and prostrated itself, saying, "I submit."
Just as Wukong was about to speak, the Nine-Headed Worm suddenly lashed out! But Wukong seemed to be prepared, and he recited the incantation again.
The Nine-Headed Worm once again fell to the ground.
