Journey to the West: Tang Monk Conquers Everything-Chapter 631: Guanyin in the Illusionary Demon Cave
As the Dispel Curse skill was cast on the Golden Hair Lion, the chains binding him began to shake and soon dissipated into a wisp of light smoke.
"Hmm, as long as it's not a control skill or equipment effect imposed by a being of the Quasi-Saint Level, the Dispel Curse will work!"
After effortlessly removing the seal on the Golden Hair Lion, Jiang Liu nodded to himself, quite satisfied with his Dispel Curse skill.
"This, this..."
Seeing the seal he had applied with all his might being so easily removed by Jiang Liu, the Golden Hair Lion was naturally taken aback.
Terrifying, Master Xuanzang's abilities were so unique, and so overpoweringly strong.
Wouldn't that make people like Sun Wukong even more fearsome?
"Holy Monk, you tell me, what should I do?" Bending his head slightly, the Golden Hair Lion quickly entered his role and asked Jiang Liu.
"Hmm, there's nothing too important. Could you find out what the situation with Guanyin Bodhisattva is now?" After some thought, Jiang Liu spoke to the Golden Hair Lion.
"I know about Guanyin Bodhisattva's situation. She has been trapped in the Illusionary Demon Cave and won't be able to leave for two years!" Upon hearing Jiang Liu's words, the Golden Hair Lion immediately responded.
"No, I mean, I want to see how Guanyin Bodhisattva is doing in the Illusionary Demon Cave right now!" Hearing the Golden Hair Lion's words, Jiang Liu shook his head and corrected him.
"Ah? Go to the Illusionary Demon Cave?" Hearing this, the Golden Hair Lion's head shrank a bit, instantly showing fear.
The horror of the Illusionary Demon Cave had nothing to do with one's cultivation level.

"Yes, you are Guanyin Bodhisattva's steed, so you can just say you're worried about her safety and want to check on her. Sounds justifiable, right?" Jiang Liu nodded and spoke.
If it were possible, why would he send the Golden Hair Lion? Jiang Liu himself wanted to go.
Indeed, he wished he could stay inside for ten or eighteen years.
"This, alright, I'll give it a try..." After a moment of silence, the Golden Hair Lion didn't dare to refuse Jiang Liu outright and nodded agreement.
After instructing the Golden Hair Lion on some essential matters, the creature tore through the sky and flew away.
Watching the Golden Hair Lion fly away, Jiang Liu then took out the Mystical Mirror from his own storage space.
This was swindled from Guanyin Bodhisattva before. With just a drop of the target's blood beneath it, one could see what the other party was doing.
For Jiang Liu, who had activated the social system, chatting with friends or even video calling, completely ignoring distance, this Dharma Treasure was rarely used.
However, now it could be put to good use, secretly monitoring the Golden Hair Lion.
When he had taken the Golden Hair Lion's core blood earlier, Jiang Liu had secretly saved a bit.
At this moment, he dripped it on the Mystical Mirror, and soon, the status of the Golden Hair Lion appeared on its surface.
Seeing the Mystical Mirror function, Jiang Liu nodded in satisfaction and then also left the Netherworld Blood Sea.
After leaving the Netherworld Blood Sea, Jiang Liu quickly found Sun Wukong and his companions. Soon after, the Journey to the West for Scriptures team continued westward.
Walking on the road to the west, Jiang Liu was holding the Mystical Mirror in his hands.
"Hehehe, what interesting thing is Master looking at?"
Glancing at it occasionally would have been fine, but as they traveled, the Master was almost always holding the Mystical Mirror, which made Zhu Bajie's face take on a somewhat lewd smile as he moved closer.
The Master had just returned from the Women's Kingdom. At this time, could he be secretly watching the King of Women's Kingdom?
With some lewd thoughts in mind, Zhu Bajie moved closer and peered into the Mystical Mirror.
However, what Zhu Bajie saw was not the King of Women's Kingdom or even any beautiful woman, but a man.
Indeed, this man was someone Zhu Bajie recognized—it was none other than Guanyin's steed, Golden Hair Lion.
"Master, didn't we almost kill the Golden Hair Lion last time? How can you use the Mystical Mirror to watch him now?" Seeing the image in the Mystical Mirror, Zhu Bajie asked in surprise.
"Oh, I encountered the Golden Hair Lion not long ago and managed to subdue him!" Being on the same side as Zhu Bajie, Jiang Liu naturally wouldn't hide the details and briefly explained the situation.
"I see, impressive. So, you're saying Guanyin Bodhisattva's steed is now our spy?" Hearing that the Golden Hair Lion had been subdued by the Master, smiles appeared on the faces of Sun Wukong and the others.
"Exactly, exactly. At this time, I told the Golden Hair Lion to go see what the situation with Guanyin Bodhisattva is!" Jiang Liu nodded and then also shared the current whereabouts of the Golden Hair Lion with Sun Wukong and the others.
Sun Wukong and his companions were already aware of Guanyin Bodhisattva being trapped in the Illusionary Demon Cave.
But what the situation was like now, nobody knew, and they all felt very curious.
So, after hearing this, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and even Sha Wujing were all curious and leaned in closer.
Seeing this, Jiang Liu didn't feel like continuing westward for the time being, so he dismounted from the White Dragon Horse and sat down on the grass beside it.
Then, his disciples, including the White Dragon Horse, also leaned in, curiously looking at the Mystical Mirror.
Because the Drought Demon was killed, Guanyin Bodhisattva could be said to have been trapped by Master and was locked inside the Illusionary Demon Cave, right? Who knows what the situation is like now?
At this time, in the hearts of Sun Wukong and everyone else, there was a bit of Schadenfreude.
Guanyin Bodhisattva finally suffered a major loss, being locked in the Illusionary Demon Cave, right? Then let's just watch what kind of losses she will face.
No matter what loss it is, as long as they saw Guanyin Bodhisattva in trouble, their mood was very good.
...
Naturally, Golden Hair Lion had no idea that Jiang Liu had taken his own heart's blood and dropped it on the Mystical Mirror to spy on him. At this time, Golden Hair Lion quickly flew towards the Illusionary Demon Cave.
Soon, he arrived at the entrance of the Illusionary Demon Cave.
"Golden Hair Lion! What are you doing here!?"
As Golden Hair Lion reached the entrance of the Illusionary Demon Cave, two Vajra appeared, stopping Golden Hair Lion in his tracks and spoke.
"Gentlemen, my master is currently inside this Illusionary Demon Cave, right?" Golden Hair Lion said, looking at the two Vajra blocking his path, "I am here to visit her!"
"To visit!? How could that be allowed?" Hearing Golden Hair Lion's words, the two Vajra looked at each other and each shook their heads.
Since she's locked in the Illusionary Demon Cave, how could they allow anyone to visit freely?
"Gentlemen, please be flexible, the Buddha's Decree only stated that Guanyin Bodhisattva must reflect in the Illusionary Demon Cave for two years. As long as the Bodhisattva doesn't leave the Illusionary Demon Cave, that should suffice, isn't it? There's no explicit rule saying no visitors are allowed, right?"
Golden Hair Lion said with a smile, then pulled out two exquisite Spirit Fruits and placed them into the hands of the two Vajra.
Subtly, the two Vajra pocketed the Spirit Fruits and exchanged glances.
"What Golden Hair Lion says seems correct? As long as Guanyin Bodhisattva is still inside the Illusionary Demon Cave and hasn't left, we are not neglecting our duty, right?"
"Indeed, indeed, and since Golden Hair Lion, as the Bodhisattva's mount, comes to visit, it's a sign of loyalty, admirable indeed, and should not be obstructed!" The other Vajra also nodded and spoke in agreement.
"Go ahead then, just remember not to stay too long!" After reaching a consensus, the two Vajra stopped barring Golden Hair Lion's way and stepped aside.
"Thank you, thank you both for accommodating!" Golden Hair Lion said with a smile, expressing his gratitude to the two Vajra, and then, he walked into the Illusionary Demon Cave.
"Hmph…" Sun Wukong watched this scene, not being able to help but snort.
Although the Mystical Mirror only showed the images and didn't transmit sound, he saw how the two Vajra initially blocked Golden Hair Lion and then let him through after receiving a fruit each.
Sun Wukong naturally observed this scene.
"…" Hearing Sun Wukong's cold snort, Zhu Bajie glanced at him and silently shook his head internally without speaking.
Big brother, in all respects, was competent and loyal. By rights, he should have fared quite well and things should have come easily to him.
But unfortunately, it's his straightforward nature, he couldn't tolerate any sand in his eyes, hence he ended up causing a Havoc in Heaven and was suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain.
This disposition didn't change even after being suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain for five hundred years.
"Really curious, what's happening with Guanyin Bodhisattva being locked in the Illusionary Demon Cave?"
Sun Wukong ignored Jiang Liu's cold snort, and Zhu Bajie's thoughts were also unknown to Jiang Liu. At this time, Jiang Liu's eyes were filled with anticipation as they focused on the Mystical Mirror.
This remark immediately caught the attention of Sun Wukong and the others.
Indeed, everyone was extremely curious.
Master had mentioned before that powerful creatures appeared in the Illusionary Demon Cave, and they varied according to one's Cultivation Level.
Who knows what Guanyin Bodhisattva fears the most?
...
Bang bang bang!
As Golden Hair Lion walked step by step into the cave, he felt his heartbeat growing louder and louder, eventually feeling as if his heart might leap out of his chest.
Having long heard the reputation of the Illusionary Demon Cave, he was naturally very anxious at this moment.
The Illusionary Demon Cave didn't have a long passage and didn't take long to traverse. Soon, Golden Hair Lion entered the cave.
Of course, Golden Hair Lion also saw Guanyin Bodhisattva.
However, having seen the current state of Guanyin Bodhisattva, Golden Hair Lion widened his eyes, feeling as though he were struck by an immobilization technique.
In the Illusionary Demon Cave, Guanyin Bodhisattva lay on the ground looking somewhat disheveled.
And beside her stood a shadow, a tall figure with a pig's head and human body—who else could it be but Zhu Bajie!?
