Chapter 248: The issue of subsequent cultivation.
The master and apprentice talked for a while longer.
Tongtian instructed the monkey not to run around for the time being, and then rode away on a cloud.
He plans to return to the underworld again to discuss the arrangements for the monkey with the ancestral witches!
Although he had already told the monkey that he would take a different path on the journey to the West.
But he hasn't decided yet how or when to leave!
......
Sun Wukong remained on Flower Fruit Mountain.
He began to explore this new world.
Feel the mystery of the minuscule holy power absorbed into your body.
Whenever he channeled his power, strange visions would appear in his eyes—
My left eye sees a golden Buddhist kingdom, my right eye sees a cyan sword realm.
When the eyes are closed, it is a scene of the beginning of chaos.
"How interesting!"
Sun Wukong grinned.
"I think I'm... kind of amazing."
He looked westward, a challenging glint in his eyes.
Meanwhile, at this moment, in the Western Spirit Mountain.
Jieyin and Zhunti sat facing each other, their reflections shimmering in the water mirror before them.
It was the image of Sun Wukong leaping and bounding about on Flower Fruit Mountain.
"This monkey has become the biggest variable, making future plans a bit difficult!"
The guide, supporting his golden Buddha head, said helplessly.
"Should we..." A murderous glint flashed in Zhunti's eyes.
"No."
The guide immediately shook his head.
"He is now a disciple of Tongtian, and he also has the ancestral witch of the underworld behind him."
Forcibly killing him would likely incur the wrath of the underworld.
Moreover..."
He paused:
"Have you sensed the power of our Western Paradise within him?"
Zhunti also frowned and nodded:
I felt it.
That monkey... it can actually use our holy power for its own purposes, it's simply unbelievable.
Is this the terrifying origin of the Chaos Immortal Stone?!
Therefore, he may not necessarily be unusable for our purposes.
His gaze was deep and penetrating.
"If the hard approach doesn't work, let's try the soft approach."
Since we can't take it by force, let him...do it himself.
I refuse to believe he can defy the will of Heaven and Earth!
"You mean..."
"The plan remains the same, but the approach will be slightly different."
We need to make him believe that all the choices were made by himself.
Zhunti seemed to be deep in thought:
"Just like how you treated Jin Chanzi back then?"
"Oh! Don't even mention Jin Chanzi, he's been ruined by the underworld!"
The plan might require a change of personnel later on!
Jieyin shook his head helplessly, no longer wanting to discuss the matter.
"We should do the opposite of what we're doing with this stone monkey."
"How so?"
"Isn't he rebellious? Isn't he going to follow his own path, just like Tongtian?"
A slight smile curved the corners of his lips.
"Then let's give him the chance to rebel, let him 'his own path'."
But it's a path we've already paved.
In the water mirror, Sun Wukong is practicing his fist and foot techniques in front of a large tree.
With a single punch, sword marks and Buddhist light simultaneously appeared on the tree.
Jieyin watched this scene and said softly:
"The pieces have been placed, and the game has begun."
This time, we're playing a completely transparent game.
"It all depends on who has the last laugh."
However, he still didn't fully understand that chess requires a balance of power.
At this moment, the strength of the underworld far surpasses that of the West.
If Hongjun doesn't personally intervene...
In fact, the two of them didn't even have a chance to "play chess" with the ancestral witches!
......
The bells of Lingshan rang out, and chanting continued.
On Flower Fruit Mountain, after Sun Wukong finished a set of punches...
Suddenly feeling something, I looked westward.
He scratched his head, feeling like...someone was keeping an eye on him.
"Who cares?" he grinned.
"This monkey now has powerful connections."
"One comes, we'll take them down; two come, we'll take them both down!"
Sun Wukong, the chaotic stone monkey, officially stepped into the primordial world.
......
As Tongtian sped into the underworld...
He was greeted by the faint smiles of the ancestral witches.
And then there was Apocalypse's applause, which carried seven parts admiration and three parts mockery.
"Fantastic! Absolutely fantastic!"
Tianqi was the first to speak, giving Tongtian a huge compliment!
"One against two!"
Moreover, this was without the support of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.
With you and the Human Emperor in charge of the human race from now on,
"It's basically hopeless for a Heavenly Sage to target the human race!"
Pingxin also smiled and said:
"Thirteenth Brother, let Fellow Daoist Tongtian catch his breath!"
He just finished fighting the two saints and rushed back; looks like he has something urgent to attend to!
Tongtian waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.
However, his face still showed signs of exhaustion.
Fighting two opponents simultaneously may seem glamorous on the surface, but the cost is actually enormous.
If it weren't for the continued blessing of human destiny,
He couldn't possibly withstand such a huge drain on his energy.
"Sit down." Dijiang pointed to the seats that had already been prepared.
It was a stone bench carved from the netherworld minerals mined by the dead.
The surface was filled with the unique, ghostly energy of the underworld.
"Tell me in detail, what exactly is the monkey's current situation?"
Tongtian sat down and accepted the Netherworld Tea offered by his underling.
This tea can reduce the corrosive influence of the netherworld on living beings, allowing the weary Tongtian to save a lot of energy!
He took a sip before slowly saying:
"Wukong absorbed the power of the three sages clashing and was born ahead of schedule."
He absorbed a portion of the holy power of myself, Jieyin, and Zhunti, which remained within his body.
"Um?!"
Zhu Jiuyin paused for a moment in his teacup.
Although the ancestral witches had already seen the general situation in front of the Mirror of Reincarnation,
However, the details are still not very clear.
"Three kinds of holy power coexist?"
"Though the pressure was weak, didn't it burst him?"
"Hmm! Not only not, but a certain balance has been achieved." A strange light flashed in Tongtian's eyes.
"Moreover, he was incredibly clear-headed from the moment his intelligence was awakened, without the confusion commonly seen in newborn beings."
My thousand years of teaching have indeed not been in vain.
Fellow Daoist Tianqi, your "prenatal education" method is remarkably effective!
Tianqi stroked his chin, not pouting despite Tongtian's praise.
Instead, he seemed thoughtful:
"Yes! The Chaos Immortal Stone itself contains creation, and with the help of the three sages, it was born!"
It's understandable that it's so peculiar!
As for his ability to absorb the power of the three of you, it must be due to his Chaos Immortal Stone foundation!
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement!
"Wukong was born with the strength of an early Golden Immortal."
Seeing that no one spoke, Tongtian wanted to show off his new disciple.
"Moreover, his true combat strength is probably more than that."
I can feel it.
The three holy powers within him have basically been fully integrated and can be used at any time.
It can be said that one can become a Buddha or an immortal in an instant!
"oh?!
In the early stages of becoming a Golden Immortal, is it possible to freely switch between immortal and Buddha forms?
Zhu Rong was astonished.
"This is actually quite fun!"
Moreover, the level of their offspring is comparable to that of the great shamans we nurtured!
"So here's the question."
Apocalypse interrupted their conversation!
After saying this, he stood up and paced back and forth in thought, amidst the puzzled gazes of the crowd.
According to my memory of the original plot,
Not long after Sun Wukong was born, he should have gone to Fangcun Mountain, Xieyue Sanxing Cave, to become a disciple of Patriarch Bodhi and learn the Great Celestial Immortal Technique, the Seventy-Two Transformations, and other skills and supernatural powers.
But now that the monkey is Tongtian's disciple, this path is definitely blocked!
We need to reconsider Wukong's future training!
