Journey to the West is extensive and profound, and many details in it are worth reviewing. We know that after Sun Wukong came back from learning art, he once visited famous mountains and rivers, and met six powerful demon kings, who became sworn brothers. Monkey King is the youngest due to his poor figure. Later, Monkey King won the title of the Great Sage of Qi Tian through resistance, so he encouraged these brothers to become saints. After a period of silence, the Bull Demon King suddenly decided to follow Monkey King and become saints, and the rest of them became saints one after another. These are the so-called Seven Saints. It's just that Monkey King's Great Sage Qi is officially recognized, while other Great Sages are just personal behaviors.

Then the question arises, what is the final outcome of the seven sages? There are some clues in the original book. In fact, one person eventually became a Buddha and one person became a Bodhisattva. The most miserable one had no bones, and the rest retired from the Jianghu. Let's talk about it specifically.
One person becomes a Buddha I'm afraid this person can also be figured out with his toes. Yes, he is one of our leading characters, Monkey King. The journey of Monkey King was not easy. Since his birth, he has demonstrated his amazing strength, "using his eyes to transport golden light, shooting at the House of Fight". However, after taking earthly food, his various skills began to hide. Later, through his wit and courage, he earned the name of the Monkey King of Huaguo Mountain.
Later, in order to live forever, I found the founder Bodhi and learned all his skills. Later, there was the highlight moment of Monkey King, who broke into the Dragon Palace, set foot in the underworld, stole peaches and imperial wine, and caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace. The heavenly troops and generals were in vain before the monkeys, so the Jade Emperor had to invite Buddha. As soon as the Buddha got the effect, he immediately got the result. After winning the bet, he slapped him at the foot of the Five Elements Mountain, making him not free for 500 years.
After 500 years of suffering, he followed Tang Monk Xitian to get scriptures. He experienced ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties on the way and finally got the right result. The Tathagata granted great honors in Lingshan Mountain. As a result, Sun Wukong was granted the title of Dou Defeat Buddha. He became a true Buddha. Therefore, the Great Sage Qitian, one of the Seven Sages, was awarded the title of Fight Against Buddha.
Sun WuKong
One becomes a Bodhisattva If you have read the article of "One Pot of Porridge", it is not difficult to answer this question. Yes, the one who becomes a Bodhisattva is the Great Sage of Pingtian, the Bull Demon King. Speaking of the Bull Demon King, he is also an overlord. You can compare the jurisdiction of each demon king on the way to get scriptures. Is the Bull Demon King the largest.
According to incomplete statistics, Niu Demon King's territory includes Hao Mountain (Red Boy's territory), Flame Mountain, Jilei Mountain, and part of the Kingdom of Women (Ruyi Immortal). It can be said that it is the most powerful and largest demon king organization in Xiniu Hezhou. As the saying goes, how can you honor others to sleep soundly under your couch. Therefore, the Tathagata's idea of fighting the Bull Demon King was certainly not one day or two. A previous article also introduced that the Demon King Niu had visited Sha Seng and Zhu Bajie. Their territory was not far from the Five Elements Mountain, so Niu Yuqing would not miss the Five Elements Mountain.
However, the Five Elements Mountain is guarded by five sides of Jiedi. They are the eyes of the Buddha. Seeing that the Bull Demon King has a tendency to save Monkey King, they quickly reported to the Buddha, so the Buddha sent heavy troops to encircle the Bull Demon King. Lao Niu didn't have as many hard backstages as Sun Wukong, so people refused to let water go. As a result, Lao Niu was beaten down and converted to Buddhism. Some friends may say that this is your fiction. In fact, it is not true. There are many details in the book to prove this. For example, the Bull Demon King once said this when he wanted to cheat back the banana fan from the monkey:
His second apprentice is pig spirit, and his third apprentice is sand flow spirit. When I was a monster, I met him once, and changed into a pig spirit to cheat him.
Bull Demon King
When he was a monster in those days, it obviously means that he is no longer a monster. If he is not a monster, he must be an immortal. However, after being captured by Nezha and his son, the Bull Demon King shouted that he would like to surrender to Buddhism, so he must have been surrendered by Buddha, so he chose to surrender to Buddhism. In addition, if you look back carefully, the Niu Demon King's family actually achieved success. Red Boy converted to Bodhisattva. When Lao Niu arrived at the Lingshan Mountain, Luosha Girl was also found. If there is no close connection with Buddhism, can his family make such arrangements? Therefore, the Bull Demon King had already submitted to the Buddha.
So what is Laoniu's position? His strength is not inferior to that of the Monkey King, but the backstage is not as hard as that of the monkey. Therefore, the Bull Demon King is not the Buddha. Being an arhat is a bit shameless, so it is very possible to become a Bodhisattva. In addition, the land of Flaming Mountain once called Lao Niu "the King of Dali", and the Buddhists happened to be called the Bodhisattva of the King of Dali, so Lao Niu is most likely to become a Bodhisattva.
No bones of one person We do not deny that there are many people who do not speak morality. Even if they make friends with others, they are only for the benefit of others. They do not really want to "share weal and woe with good brothers", let alone "not want to live in the same year and on the same day, but to die in the same day and on the same day". But it cannot be ruled out that some people really value brotherhood.
One man was like this. He was very concerned about his friendship with Sun Wukong, so when he heard that Sun Wukong was pushed to the foot of the Five Elements Mountain by the Tathagata, he went to the Five Elements Mountain with great emotion to save him. However, the five parties revealed the truth that they had too many contacts. He reported it to Tianting and the Jade Emperor, and Tianting and the Buddhist Sect sent their elite soldiers and powerful generals to fight against him. In the end, one person's strength is weak, and neither Tianting nor Buddhism is good. As a result, he died on the spot with no bones left. His territory was immediately occupied by others.
Tianting
Speaking of which, the answer should be announced. Yes, he is the Lion Camel King, claiming to be the Great Sage of Mountain Moving. His territory is of course the Lion Camel Country and Lion Camel Ridge. After his tragic death, the territory was occupied by the roc golden winged eagle, because he was afraid that his subordinates would not accept it, and even more afraid that they would tell the Monkey King what happened, so roc simply killed the people of the lion camel country and cut the roots of the people. Later, he invited the blue hair lion spirit and white elephant spirit, known as the three demons of Lion Camel Ridge in history. At the same time, the lion camel king was also the most tragic one among the seven saints. He was killed with no bones left.
Other Great Sages The remaining great saints are the sea covering great saint Jiao Demon King, the sky mixing great saint Peng Demon King, the ventilation great saint Macaque King, and the exorcism great saint Yu marmoset King. The strength of these four people is actually amazing. You can think about it. Monkey King himself is a very proud monkey. How can he let others take advantage of him? However, when he is sworn in, he is willing to be his younger brother. This shows that these demon kings who have sworn in with him are all powerful, at least not inferior to him.
Therefore, whether it is the Jiao Demon King, the Peng Demon King, the Macaque King, or the Yu Marmoset King. Their strength is very strong, but they don't have the background of Monkey King. There are many people in their family who have to support them, so they dare not fight with the heaven openly. So they didn't dare to show up when Monkey King was suppressed in the Five Elements Mountain. Even when I heard that the Monkey King had made a scene in the Heavenly Palace, I became more afraid. After all, the Heaven has always taken attacking demon kings everywhere as the primary task. They also made such a big marriage with Monkey King. They chose to retire and escape in view of their own strength and the future of the family.
As a result, the four great saints did not even show their faces again and fled. So that after Monkey King came out of the Five Elements Mountain, he only saw the Bull Demon King, and the rest of his brothers could not see him.
Seven Sages
Summary In fact, the demon king in the Westward Journey World is very difficult. On the one hand, the demon king naturally becomes the target of Tianting's attack. For example, Zhenwu Great Emperor, the first god of war in Tianting, once accepted the order of the Jade Emperor and Yuanshi Tianzun to eliminate the demons in the world. On the other hand, not everyone dares to rescue or help Sun Wukong, the sworn brother, because Sun Wukong has publicly broken with Heaven.
Therefore, the seven sages fell apart from each other. Among them, Monkey King became a Buddha, the Bull Demon King became a Bodhisattva, and the Lion and Camel King had no bones left. The remaining four demon kings lived in seclusion. They must know that Monkey King has become a Buddha in the future, and they will choose to return.
