Guan Yin, riding on a lotus platform, soared into the sky, but the next moment, a large hand grabbed her ankle and yanked her back down, pulling her straight into its embrace!

Tang Sanzang burst out laughing, "Another one! Mother-in-law, I can now marry two, you don't mind, do you?"

Li Shan's mother's face turned deathly pale, and through gritted teeth, she said, "You... you!"

Boom!

In a moment of distraction from Li Shan's mother, Tang Sanzang had already returned, his arms wide open, lunging straight for Samantabhadra!

"Run!" was all that Li Shan's mother could exclaim in time.

Samantabhadra, too, had already soared into the sky, transforming into countless replicas dashing in every direction!

In the blink of an eye, with two Bodhisattvas captured, Samantabhadra was terrified, so he didn't hold back and used his Divine Skills with all his might!

Seeing this, Tang Sanzang laughed heartily again and transformed into millions, covering the sky and the earth like a giant wave, making an impenetrable wall bearing down!

Seeing there was no escape, Samantabhadra wielded various Divine Skills, but to his disbelief, Tang Sanzang's replicas were incredibly tough, and they took them all!

Samantabhadra, incredulously, said, "How is this possible?"

It's well known that although the art of replication seems powerful, it actually divides one's power into hundreds of parts, merely appearing formidable while each entity is not strong in individual combat.

If every single entity could overpower Samantabhadra, then the terror of Tang Sanzang's true form could chill one to the bone!

But, is that possible?

In that brief moment of astonishment, a large hand grabbed Samantabhadra by the arm and pulled him into its embrace!

"The third one!"

At this moment, Li Shan's mother finally understood and said, "I get it now; you never used the replication technique at all!"

Tang Sanzang smiled, "Who said that was replication? I was just jumping back and forth a few times, and you couldn't see clearly, how is that my fault?"

Everyone was at a loss for words for a moment, but they were also shocked!

What were their capabilities? They were Bodhisattvas of Buddhism!

All of them had strengths beyond those of a Daluo Golden Immortal, their eyesight and speed were extremely quick; yet they could still only catch a blur and believed it to be real… This monk's power was absolutely terrifying!

"How can this be countered?" Manjusri Bodhisattva said with a wry smile.

With a grave expression, Li Shan's mother looked at Tang Sanzang and said, "Unless we overpower him head-on, there's no solution."

Tang Sanzang raised an eyebrow and grinned savagely, "You want to face me head-on?"

As he spoke, he clenched his fists… a terrifying power was gathering!

Li Shan's mother's face drastically changed; one-on-one, she truly wasn't confident she could defeat this monk!

Just as the monk was about to launch his attack, Li Shan's mother, struck by a sudden inspiration, cried out, "Wait, son-in-law, hold on, I have something to say!"

At this call of "son-in-law," Tang Sanzang immediately stopped, and the powerful energy dissipated with him.

Guan Yin, Samantabhadra, and Manjusri Bodhisattva breathed a sigh of relief, then kept retreating to get out of the way, their faces covered in cold sweat, their bodies drenched in fragrant sweat, breathing heavily...

At this moment, these three finally felt the terrifying nature of the monk before them; no wonder Lingji Bodhisattva had chosen to flee rather than suppress him back then.

Under the heavens, there might not be many who can suppress this bald guy.

Tang Sanzang scratched his bald head and asked, "Mother-in-law, wasn't it agreed as a sky-clashing marriage, catching whoever to marry whoever? Why stop now?"

Lishan Laomu wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "My son-in-law, you are strong and robust, but my three daughters have been delicate and tender, confining themselves at home for years. How can they withstand your rough handling?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva said, "Exactly, this is too barbaric."

Tang Sanzang cocked his head and asked, "Then what should we do?"

Lishan Laomu said, "My three daughters have each woven a pearl sweatshirt. Why not you wear all three sweatshirts to chase them? This way, it also adds a bit of difficulty and won't be too excessive. How about that?"

Tang Sanzang scratched his bald head and said, "That's too much trouble, but alright, hurry up."

Hearing Tang Sanzang had agreed, the four of them secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Otherwise, if they let this bald guy keep on capturing like this, none of the four could escape.

Everyone took out their various magical treasures, restraining ropes, fishing nets, and the iron chains that had once tied Kun were all laid out in front of Tang Sanzang.

However, Tang Sanzang had his face covered by the Sky-Blocking Curtain and his eyes blinded, so he couldn't see.

The three immediately got to work and tied the three magical treasures around Tang Sanzang, instantly turning him into a rice dumpling.

Tang Sanzang impatiently asked, "Is it done now?"

Just as Lishan Laomu was about to say it was done, Guanyin Bodhisattva, still a bit worried, fished out a pile of shiny gold objects, "I also have a few gold bracelets, Golden Fillets, and so on. Let's put them on him as well."

Lishan Laomu and the rest looked at them, and what were supposedly gold bracelets were clearly the top-notch magical treasures personally given to Guanyin by the Buddha himself to subdue top-level demons — the Gold, Tight, and Prohibition Three Rings!

The abilities of the three spells differed.

The Tight Hoop Spell could tighten and nearly explode one's head, subduing any unruly fierce demon through sheer pain, tormenting them into submission.

The Prohibition Hoop Spell was a kind of restriction magic, which could prevent someone from doing certain things, though its force was not very strong.

The last one was the Golden Hoop Spell, the strongest binding spell among the three, consisting of five golden rings, four for the limbs and one for the neck. Once the spell was activated, it could directly control the person.

Now, Guanyin Bodhisattva had pulled out all three hoop spells at once, obviously frightened by this bald guy, ready to make it foolproof!

The four looked at each other, not holding back anymore, one of them shouted, "I also have a pair of jade bracelets to give him!"

Another exclaimed, "I have a nice ribbon to give him as well."

Manjushri Bodhisattva took out a thick gold chain and said, "I have a gold necklace to give him as well."

Samantabhadra Bodhisattva saw this, was momentarily baffled, and asked in a hushed tone, "Isn't that the chain for that green-haired lion?"

Manjushri nodded and said, "The lion ran away, but the chain is still here, it can be used now. Didn't your white elephant also run away? Where's its chain? Let's use it as well."

Samantabhadra Bodhisattva immediately nodded and then took out a thick green rope.

The few also did not hesitate nor did they ask if Tang Sanzang agreed. Thinking he had been turned into a rice dumpling, he couldn't resist. So, the four of them rushed forward, all hands on deck, putting the Three Rings Spell, this rope, that lock, this dog chain, that ribbon, all over Tang Sanzang's body.

In an instant, Tang Sanzang transformed from the rice dumpling he had been moments before to a cicada pupa now, leaving only his bald head exposed. At first glance, he almost looked like a Weeble.

Seeing this, the four truly set their minds at ease.
