#2441 - A sudden reversal
#2441 - A sudden reversal
Although the Jade Emperor didn't fully explain, Ksitigarbha and the others already understood the meaning behind it.
"But how can we rescue the Prison God this way?"
Ksitigarbha asked the Jade Emperor with doubt.
"If the Western Paradise can't hold out at Lingyun渡, and they don't want to abandon their layout there, their only remaining option is to ask our Heavenly Court for assistance."
"As long as our Heavenly Court can get involved, we can easily use a hundred methods to rescue the Prison God."
"Moreover, the Western Paradise will be under the control of our Heavenly Court, and they won't dare to harm the Prison God in the slightest."
The Jade Emperor said to Ksitigarbha and the others with a smile.
"Then we will follow the Jade Emperor's plan!"
Ksitigarbha and the three honored ones nodded in agreement.
Ksitigarbha and the three honored ones continued their journey with the Prison God Hall's forces, while at this time, the situation for the Demon and Monster races was already extremely unfavorable.
Although Chu Jin and Fei Yi were still fighting desperately, because the Western Paradise had the assistance of the Leiyin Bell, the soldiers of the Demon and Monster races had already begun to collapse entirely.
"If this continues, even if we don't retreat, our Demon and Monster races will inevitably be defeated."
"It's better to live to fight another day; abandoning the Journey to the West cause is better than total annihilation."
"Let's retreat."
Maitreya Buddha discussed with Chu Jin and Fei Yi.
The three of them had to make the decision to retreat given the current situation.
"Haha, Chu Jin, whether you retreat or not is not up to you."
The Tathagata Buddha, seeing through Chu Jin's intentions, shouted arrogantly.
At this time, the Tathagata Buddha's target was already locked on Tang Sanzang and Sha Seng, who were among the Demon and Monster races.
"We must capture Tang Sanzang and the others."
Following the Tathagata Buddha's order, Manjushri, Samantabhadra, and dozens of Western Paradise elites headed towards Tang Sanzang and Sha Seng.
Although Chu Jin and Fei Yi were unwilling, they were powerless to protect Tang Sanzang and the others under the current circumstances.
And with Tang Sanzang and Sha Seng's strength, they naturally couldn't contend with Manjushri, Samantabhadra, and dozens of Western Paradise elites.
Seeing that Manjushri, Samantabhadra, and the Western Paradise elites had already surrounded Tang Sanzang and Sha Seng, Chu Jin could only sigh.
"Forget it, let's retreat."
But just as Chu Jin issued the order, the situation changed.
For some unknown reason, the Demon and Monster armies, which had originally begun to collapse and flee, suddenly stopped their retreat.
Moreover, they began to counterattack the Western Paradise Buddhas, and this reversal caught the Western Paradise Buddhas off guard.
In just a moment, many Western Paradise Buddhas became corpses under the counterattack of the Monster and Demon races.
Especially Manjushri, Samantabhadra, and those Western Paradise elite Buddhas who were besieging Tang Sanzang and Sha Seng, they had already surrounded the two.
But at this time, a team of demons and monsters suddenly rushed over and attacked them.
Manjushri, Samantabhadra, and those Western Paradise elite Buddhas didn't initially take these demon and monster soldiers seriously.
But after only one exchange, one-third of those Western Paradise elite Buddhas were killed.
Tang Sanzang and Sha Seng, who had originally thought they couldn't escape, immediately perked up when they saw this situation.
"I didn't expect the soldiers of the Monster and Demon races to be so powerful."
"Yes, even the Western Paradise elite Buddhas are no match for them."
It might be possible that those Western Paradise elite Buddhas were just incompetent and had empty reputations, but Manjushri and Samantabhadra were true big shots of the Western Paradise.
Their strength ranked among the best in the Three Realms, and ordinary demon and monster soldiers were no match for them at all.
But at this time, Manjushri and Samantabhadra were actually finding it difficult to parry the siege of several demon and monster soldiers, and they were being besieged quite miserably.
"What's going on? Why are there so many powerful soldiers in the Monster and Demon races?"
"Yes, the Monster and Demon races shouldn't be this strong."
Manjushri and Samantabhadra were also gritting their teeth to resist at this time, and they were very surprised.
The scene encountered by Manjushri and Samantabhadra was actually happening in every corner of the battlefield.
The demon and monster soldiers on the battlefield seemed to have been possessed by gods in an instant, and their combat power had become several times stronger.
Not to mention ordinary Western Paradise Buddhas, even those elite Buddhas, and even the big shots of the Western Paradise, had to start retreating.
"Haha, it seems that my Monster and Demon races are destined to be invincible."
"The Buddhas of the Western Paradise must be physically weak and lack stamina."
Chu Jin and Fei Yi saw hope at this time, immediately turned around and continued to fight the Tathagata Buddha and the Precious Banner Light King Buddha.
"Could it be that my Monster and Demon races really have such great potential?"
Even Maitreya Buddha, as the commander, was a little confused at this time, not knowing why there would be such a change.
At this time, Tang Sanzang and the others seemed to understand somewhat, because they saw Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie returning.
"So that's how it is!"
"It seems that our reinforcements have arrived."
Tang Sanzang and Sha Seng exchanged a glance and said.
The reason why the Monster and Demon races instantly reversed the situation was not due to their own strength, but because the Prison God Hall's army had arrived.
However, under the orders of Ksitigarbha and the others, all the Prison God Hall's army had transformed into the appearance of Monster and Demon race soldiers.
The Prison God Hall's forces were all elites among elites; they secretly joined the battlefield and fought against the Western Paradise together with the Monster and Demon races.
How could the Western Paradise Buddhas endure this? Countless Buddhas were killed and injured in a short time, and the entire Western Paradise Buddha army began to show signs of defeat.
"How could this be? The Monster and Demon races were about to be defeated just now."
"Hold them back! This battle must be won!"
"Strike the Leiyin Bell for me."
The Tathagata Buddha was also somewhat unclear about the current situation and could only desperately order the Western Paradise army to hold on.
Moreover, the Leiyin Bell was struck repeatedly again, and the bell sound with the power of thunder rang incessantly.
But even with the use of the Leiyin Bell, the Western Paradise could not change the current situation.
Especially Ksitigarbha and the three honored ones; they had already locked their target on the Leiyin Bell.
"The Western Paradise dares to capture Lord Prison God; we must give them a good look."
"This Leiyin Bell is a treasure of the Western Paradise; let's destroy it first."
"We must make the Western Paradise pay the price!"
While speaking, Ksitigarbha and the three honored ones headed towards the direction of the Leiyin Bell.
And because they had transformed into the appearance of ordinary demon soldiers, the Western Paradise Buddhas guarding the Leiyin Bell didn't take the four of them seriously.
The Leiyin Bell was already ringing incessantly, and this sound didn't have much damaging effect on Ksitigarbha and the others.
"Since you bald donkeys like to ring the bell so much, then we'll give you a hand."
Ksitigarbha and the four of them said with a smile to those Buddhas after approaching.
