For all the Jedi and Landel knew, it could just be droning in the background.
"Kanjizai bosatsu gyou-jin han-nya ha... ...shoken go on kai ku do issai... ...soku setsu shu watsu..."
Obi-Wan's attention was on the wrong person.
Sanzo hadn't wasted any time; he'd begun a chant that was practically like a second skin to him by now. The priest's voice was low, only every other word audible as he murmured.
Each time was a little easier. He didn't have to close his eyes anymore to focus, or position his hands a certain way now. Calling forth the sutra had been difficult at first, but now it was a natural act, the surge of energy and heat no longer a surprise.
Sanzo welcomed it, even when it felt like the power behind it could burn him.
"...gya tei gya tei ha ra gya tei ha ra so gya tei... ...bodhi so wa ka hannya shingyo..."
The hairs on the back of Sanzo's neck were rising. The sutra was fluttering slightly on his shoulders.
He didn't know just how it would affect a Jedi: the sutra was best at vaporizing youkai, but either way, Obi-Wan was in for a surprise.
Sanzo's voice rose, with each word. Only a few more...
"...on ma ni hatsu mei-- un..."
The sutra went still, almost as if anticipating the final bit of the chant. The last two words, the ones needed to trigger the scripture came thundering out.
"MAKAI TENJYO!"
The sutra burst forth, a blast of invisible energy blazing from it. Like some living thing, tendrils upon tendrils exploded out from him, obscuring the monk for a moment in lines of ancient text and green borders before turning and whipping towards Obi-Wan.
