The card-making interior of the villa.

Ye Ning is adjusting his own state in it.

The breakthrough has been completed, and from now on all that's left is normal practice. And now the [Sha Wujing] card that was previously delayed due to something can finally be completed.

[Elemental Spirit·Sand] has been placed on the table by Ye Ning.

There are some special materials placed next to it.

In the original text of Journey to the West, there are two paragraphs describing Sha Wujing:
"Neither blue nor black, with a gloomy face; neither tall nor short, with bare feet and a muscular body. His eyes flicker like two lamps under a stove; his mouth is forked like a butcher's brazier. His fangs support the blade of a sword, and his red hair is messy and unkempt. His roar is like thunder, and his feet run like a rolling wind."

"He has fluffy red hair and two round eyes that shine like lanterns. His face is neither black nor blue, but indigo blue, and his voice is like thunder and drums. He wears a goose yellow cloak and a pair of white vines tied around his waist. There are nine skulls hanging from his neck, and he holds a staff in his hand, which is very majestic."

The descriptions of Sha Wujing's appearance in these two paragraphs are similar, and the main theme is that he is rough and wild.

Apart from his ferocious and frightening appearance, Sha Wujing's most important features are the necklace made up of nine skulls hanging on his chest and the demon-subduing staff in his hand.

The skull necklace he wore was made from the skulls of nine pilgrims.

To be honest, if it were before, Ye Ning would have been quite troubled. His previous plan was to ask his uncle to get some more advanced humanoid skeleton heads of undead creatures as replacements.

But since I came into contact with Tantric Buddhism, it is no longer necessary.

Speaking of which, this is what Sheng Wuxin said to Ye Ning when he mentioned Sha Wujing before.

In Tantric Buddhism, some factions use skulls as materials to make cards or special objects.

There are quite special skulls in many Tantric temples of this faction.

Saint Wuxin had naturally read "Journey to the West" written (copied) by Ye Ning, so after knowing that Ye Ning wanted to create Sha Wujing, he suggested that the skull of a high monk processed in Tantric Buddhism could be used as material to complete the card making.

After all, there is no pilgrim in this world, so it is naturally impossible to find the skull of a pilgrim. However, the nature of the great monks in Tantric Buddhism is similar to that of pilgrims. Even the first nine pilgrims in the story may not be stronger than the great monks in Tantric Buddhism. You should know that in Tantric Buddhism there are even golden bodies of great monks who are close to becoming Buddhas.

After hearing Sheng Wuxin's words, Ye Ning's eyes lit up and he immediately accepted her opinion.

Indeed, no matter how you look at it, this is much more restored than the skull of a high-level skeleton-type undead.

After seeing that Ye Ning adopted his suggestion, Sheng Wuxin directly called his abbot and asked the Tantric Buddhism for some skulls of high monks in the name of Ye Ning.

Considering Ye Ning's current status in Buddhism, this request is really quite simple.

Almost within two days, they replied that the skulls of nine eminent monks who had passed away had been collected.

After the collection was completed, he sent someone to deliver it to him, but Ye Ning needed to inform the military. Other places were okay, but if the capital was not informed, it would be easy for Buddhist disciples to never return.

Ye Ning then called Feng Zhengxiong and told him about this.

Feng Zhengxiong's previous injuries had basically healed. After hearing about Ye Ning's situation, he said directly: "There is no need to let those bald guys come. Although they didn't do anything to you, the relationship between our empire and them is not that good yet. So let them send someone to deliver the things to Er'a City. I will send someone there to receive them and bring them back directly on the military's special plane."

"Ah? It's just a delivery. There's no need to use a special plane. It's a bit wasteful."

"Don't think too much. This isn't a special plane that was opened just to send something for you. I'll have them put it on a regular military plane that goes to and from Er'a City. I'll just bring it back along the way."

Hearing that it was on his way, Ye Ning smiled and said thank you, then asked about Feng Zhengxiong's recovery from his injuries, then exchanged a few words of greeting and hung up the phone.

Speaking of which, the skull of a great monk is mainly of high value and is also quite special.

It is really not suitable for ordinary express delivery services, and some specialized special item delivery agencies rarely go to Er'a City, otherwise Ye Ning would not have to trouble the military.

The goods arrived within two days.

That is a large box placed next to the table in the card making room.

It was a special box about the size of a person. The entire box was made of special golden nanmu wood. Just looking at the box was enough to tell that it was worth a lot of money.

Then, Ye Ning carefully opened the lid of the box, and the moment he opened it, a golden light flashed in front of Ye Ning, and a refreshing fragrance spread in the room.

At the same time, a large amount of Buddha's power filled the entire room.

In the box, nine skulls of eminent monks were neatly arranged. Under the skulls was a piece of bright yellow cloth, and under the cloth was a thick layer of cotton.

Looking at these nine skulls that seemed to be plated with gold, Ye Ning couldn't help but sigh at the generosity of Tantric Buddhism.

He had heard from Saint Wuxin that, generally speaking, only a saintly monk who had reached the peak of the saintly realm and had a first-rate level of Buddhist knowledge could achieve a golden body at the time of his death.

Although the nine skulls now placed in front of Ye Ning have different shades of dark, light and dark colors, they are all skulls that have achieved golden bodies without exception.

Obviously, the Tantric Buddhism suffered a heavy loss this time. Although it did not go all the way to empty-handedness, it probably paid for most of its hidden treasures.

Ye Ning exhaled gently, his mind moved, and the Buddha's power was stimulated in his body. Then, with the infusion of golden Buddha's power, the nine skulls of the holy monks were directly controlled by Ye Ning and came to the table.

After putting the nine skulls of the holy monks away, Ye Ning took out a magic staff from the space beside him.

After learning that Ye Ning was preparing to make [Sha Wujing], the eldest sister took the initiative to step forward and take on the task of helping Ye Ning make the demon-subduing staff.

After all, "Journey to the West" is so popular now, and everyone has seen it. With a little thought, you can guess some of the materials needed to make cards.

Speaking of which, for Ye Ning, after the two books "Journey to the West" and "Investiture of the Gods" became popular, it would be much more convenient for him to make his own cards.

Because as the story spreads, people will gradually start to make these cards.

Of course, unlike Ye Ning, these cards made with the settings and worldviews from the books written (copied) by Ye Ning are not necessarily inferior to those made by Ye Ning himself in terms of power and potential, but they are unable to communicate with the real myths.

There are a lot of rules involved, and Ye Ning asked Zhu Bajie about this. Zhu Bajie told him with certainty that he was the only one who could create cards that matched the myths and could use the special power in them to go against the flow of time.

It has nothing to do with the strength of the card, only with the card itself.

"Whoo~"

Exhaling deeply, Ye Ning shook off all the messy thoughts in his mind.

Then, with a thought, he directly activated the Yantian Space.

With Ye Ning's activation, star power was activated and the entire card-making room was instantly covered by a starry sky!

Feeling the Yantian space at this moment, Ye Ning himself felt somewhat emotional.

I haven't made cards for a long time. My strength has improved a lot since the last time I made cards. The Yantian Space at this moment is very different from before.

At this moment, Ye Ning was completely surrounded by the starry sky.

In this starry sky, countless stars are twinkling.

These stars represent the special content in the Yantian space that can be made into cards.

One part of the light was extremely bright, and it also emitted a familiar aura to Ye Ning.

These are the cards that Ye Ning had already made.

Speaking of which, Ye Ning's Yantian Space was not like this at the beginning. At that time, it was full of phantoms.

When Ye Ning was making cards, he was basically unable to unleash the power of those phantoms.

It’s different now. Although some of the stars in the sky are still illusory, they are not as illusory as before.

With Ye Ning's current strength, he can already make more cards.

Ye Ning raised his hand and gently patted the table in front of him. The original card of [Elemental Elf·Sand] on the table instantly flew up and entered the range of Yantian Space, and was then directly activated by Ye Ning.

The energy in the Yantian space surged instantly. Under Ye Ning's control, rays of light began to pour into the body of the [Elemental Spirit·Sand] which had turned into a shapeless ball of sand in the Yantian space.

As various settings and contents corresponding to the world view enter its body, the size of the [Elemental Spirit·Sand] begins to slowly change.

Watching the constant transformation of the [Elemental Spirit·Sand], Ye Ning took out a dozen demon crystal cores from his space card.

These crystal cores have two attributes in total, one is earth and the other is water.

Among these dozen demon crystal cores, the majority are of water attribute.

After all, [Elemental Spirit·Sand] itself possesses a lot of earth attribute power and does not require too many crystal cores to provide energy support.

However, although [Sha Wujing] is a spirit of quicksand, he is also a water monster, and [Elemental Spirit·Sand] does not have water attributes, so a large number of water-attribute crystal cores are necessary.

And you have to be careful during the injection process.

After all, the compatibility of these two forces themselves is not very good. Although through the setting of Sha Wujing itself, the two will definitely be able to merge in the end, it also needs to take time.

As Ye Ning expected, the situation in Yantian Space was quite unstable during the whole process.

The conflict between the two forces of water and earth makes the entire card-making process quite dangerous.

Fortunately, the Yantian Space in the Venerable Realm is indeed large enough and much more stable than before. Even if a large amount of energy is running wild in it, it does not cause much impact on the Yantian Space itself.

About an hour later, the dozen or so crystal cores in front of Ye Ning had completely disappeared, and at this moment, the [Elemental Spirit·Sand] had completed the transformation.

It was a similar human-shaped figure, and its general image was beginning to resemble Sha Wujing, except that some details were still a little unstable.

Around him, there were tiny specks of sand and waves of water floating. The two energies had now completely adapted to each other and could even blend together.

At this time, Ye Ning looked at the nine skulls glowing with golden light. With a thought, they were instantly sent into the Yantian space.

In an instant, the entire Yantian space shook violently!
Feeling the violent shock, Ye Ning took a breath.

Good guy!
It is indeed the golden skull of an accomplished monk. The surging Buddha power is truly amazing!

I didn't feel it until I put these skulls into the Yantian space.

At this moment, after the skull entered the Yantian space, Ye Ning realized that he was still shortsighted before.

The Buddha's light that you feel when you open the box is actually only less than one-tenth of the power of these skulls.

Most of the power of these enlightened monks who have achieved the golden body is concentrated within the skull, with only a small part scattered around it.

Only after entering the Yantian Space, relying on the special nature of the Yantian Space, could Ye Ning feel the power contained in those skulls.

This force instantly expanded the Yantian space. Fortunately, Ye Ning's mental strength was far stronger than his own realm. If it were an ordinary Venerable Realm card maker, this force would probably have burst their Yantian space.

He soothed the Buddha's power within the nine skulls and slowly shrunk them to the size of an apple, then strung them together with energy as a rope, and then put them on the body of Sha Wujing who was taking shape.

Various settings and world views began to flow into the skull necklace, and special auras appeared on it.

Exhaling, Ye Ning put the last item into the Yantian space.

A real magic wand to subdue demons!
This magic staff was created after Ye Ning achieved the Venerable Realm.

After Ye Ning achieved the realm of Venerable, magic weapon was also defined by it. Therefore, Ye Ning also had a title related to magic weapon, [Duobao Tianzun] after the title of Venerable.

It is precisely because the rules related to magic weapons have been perfected, so the demon-subduing staff that the eldest sister made for Ye Ning this time is naturally also a magic weapon.

Of course, it cannot be compared with the real magic wand for subduing demons. There is a special description of this magic wand for subduing demons in "Journey to the West".

“Baozhang originally had a great reputation and was originally from Yueli Solo Sect.

Wu Gang cut down a branch, and Lu Ban took great pains to make it.

There is a golden heart inside and thousands of pearl silk threads outside.

The name of the magic staff is good at subduing demons, and it can subdue monsters forever in Lingxiao.

Just because I was promoted to the rank of general, the Jade Emperor gave it to me to carry with me.

It can be long or short as I wish, and it can be fine or coarse as I wish.

He once protected the emperor at the Peach Banquet and also lived in the upper realm with the emperor.

When I was on duty in the hall, many saints had come to visit me, and when I opened the curtain, many immortals had come to worship me.

Cultivate a spiritual weapon, not just an ordinary tool from the human world.

Since he was demoted from Tianmen, he has traveled freely overseas.

Don't be so bold as to boast about yourself; there is no competition among the people in the world with guns and swords.

Looking at your rusty palladium, you can only hoe the fields and grow vegetables!
This kind of weapon is rare in the world, so it is difficult to know the name of the magic staff.

It comes from the shadowless place in the Moon Palace and is carved from the fairy tree of Thorau.

The outside is inlaid with precious stones and the inside is drilled with gold and filled with auspicious energy.

I had attended the imperial banquet the other day, and today I am here to protect Tang Monk.

There is no knowledge on the road to the West, but there is a great name in the palace of the upper world.

Call it the True Magic Staff to Subdue Demons, and discipline the Broken Sky Spirit!"

That is a divine weapon level, so the eldest senior sister naturally cannot forge a real one. However, with the eldest senior sister's skills and the legendary materials, she has produced the most top-level magic weapon that a mortal can make. Although it may not reach the level of a divine weapon with the blessing of the Yantian Space, its function should not be particularly bad.

With the integration of the Demon-Subduing Staff, card making has entered its final stage.

The power of each bit is gathering together, and everything is starting to come together.

At this moment, Ye Ningfu's heart was filled with inspiration, and he integrated a trace of incense and wish power into the Yantian space. In an instant, a golden light shone, and the card finally reached the final stage.

Looking at the glittering card in the air, a golden light flashed in Ye Ning's eyes, and then he instantly engraved three big words on it.

【Sha Wujing】!
Card making is complete! (End of this chapter)
