Chapter 180: Chapter 180: Bajie, Sun Wukong, and Heaven-Howling Dog’s Wild Joy
"Is that the sound of a pig?"
"It seems to be coming from that underground cave!"
"Could it be another Demon Beast?"
The sudden wild boar howling startled everyone, but they didn’t flee; they stood together, ready to face the enemy.
"Howl Howl~~~"
The wild boar’s howl echoed again, the ground trembled violently, and a massive figure surged from the underground cave, blocking out the sky.
Everyone was shocked and hurriedly dodged.
Boom!
With a thunderous sound, the heavy object crashed to the ground, and everyone looked on in amazent.
A black-furred wild boar as large as a giant mountain stood in the city, with tough bristles and two sharp tusks. Its low growling made it sway its head nacingly as if it was furious.
"Everyone, together! Let’s kill this Demon Beast!" a cultivator shouted, drawing his sword to attack.
Others nodded and followed suit, unleashing countless Magical Treasures and Spirit Techniques to slay the Demon Beast.
Yet, when their powerful strikes hit the wild boar, they failed to inflict any damage whatsoever; everything was blocked by the boar’s indestructible bristles, emitting a clanging sound like swords hitting steel.
Upon seeing this, everyone was appalled—their attacks were entirely ineffective!
"Howl!!!" The wild boar roared angrily, releasing a shockwave from its mouth that sent thousands flying.
Suddenly, a terrifying powerful aura exploded, shaking the surroundings. Everyone was taken aback; this wild boar was at the Quasi-Emperor level!
A Quasi-Emperor level Demon Beast, everyone hastily ran away, losing any desire to fight.
Most of them present were at the Divinity Transformation level; none of them were even Quasi-Saints—how could they defeat such a Quasi-Emperor Demon Beast?
While everyone was busy fleeing, an elderly man stepped forward, slowly walking toward the boar.
His pace was steady, with no sign of panic in his expression, and there was even a slight smile on his lips as if he hadn’t seen the boar for a long ti and today was a reunion—a feeling akin to eting an old friend.
Soone noticed and wanted to urge the old man to leave quickly, but the old man shook his head slightly and continued to walk straight toward the boar.
Seeing this, everyone left him alone, choosing to run; after all, they couldn’t stop soone from seeking their own death.
anwhile, on a rooftop of a tall building, a figure appeared out of nowhere—Chen Lan.
Before he started contemplating the Tao, he sensed the situation here. With the auspicious Qilin training in the Ghost Realm, Huaxia was undefended, so he ca to check things out, intending to subdue this Demon Beast to serve him.
As soon as he arrived, he saw the mysterious old man. Through Divine Sense, he felt sowhat familiar with the old man.
At that mont, the old man stopped moving, seemingly sensing sothing, and looked up towards Chen Lan.
Seeing this, Chen Lan was slightly stunned—could the old man have sensed him?
It made his eyes narrow instantly, realizing that the old man might be extraordinary.
Indeed, the old man glanced at Chen Lan before continuing toward the boar, which quickly noticed the approaching elder and roared in anger.
The elder stopped, his expression complex and angry, clenching his fists tightly, grinding his teeth, and his body slightly trembling, as if restraining anger.
Chen Lan looked at the elder, then at the boar, understanding that they might be acquainted.
Soon, he heard the elder speak.
"Bajie, what have they done to you to make you like this?" The elder’s voice was weathered and sad, filled with more anger and helplessness.
As the elder’s voice rang out, the wild boar miraculously stopped roaring, its previously fiery eyes gradually regaining so clarity.
Bajie?
Could that be the boar’s na?
Could this elder be the boar’s master?
Just when they thought the boar had regained consciousness, its eyes flickered with a trace of black mist, turning malicious, and it began to rage once more.
"Stop!" At that mont, the elder pointed his finger, uttering the word "stop."
The wild boar unexpectedly froze, as if ti stood still, utterly motionless!
His words beca law.
Clearly, this elder’s power was extraordinary.
The elder glanced at Chen Lan one last ti, then waved his large hand, and the wild boar was instantly absorbed into a pocket universe within his sleeve, disappearing without a trace.
"How can it be?" Chen Lan was slightly astonished, surprised to find the Divine Sense mark he left on the elder was gone.
He couldn’t sense a thing—had they entered another world?
Otherwise, within this Cosmos, he should be able to detect their location.
If he guessed correctly, both the elder and boar belong to the Profound Dust Realm; he needed to ask Heaven-Howling Dog or Tao Tian Demon Venerable.
Thinking this, he left the area and reappeared in the Ghost Realm.
Heaven-Howling Dog and Tao Tian Demon Venerable were training in the Ghost Realm.
Sensing Chen Lan’s arrival, Tao Tian Demon Venerable opened his eyes, seeing Chen Lan before him, and imdiately knelt down to pay respects: "Master."
"Yes, rise. I ca to ask you a question."
"Please speak, Master."
"Do you know a Demon Beast boar nad Bajie?"
"Bajie, Demon Beast?" Tao Tian Demon Venerable muttered to himself, his mind frantically searching his mories for this na.
After a mont, he shook his head and said, "Not very familiar. I’ve fought countless battles and only recognize the strong. Bajie likely never fought
or gained my recognition."
Chen Lan nodded, looking at the nearby Heaven-Howling Dog, whose expression was now stunned, very much surprised.
Seeing this, Chen Lan felt sure Heaven-Howling Dog knew Bajie.
"Great Emperor, how did you know this na?" Heaven-Howling Dog asked in amazent.
"Just learned of it. Who is this Bajie?"
"Bajie is Marshal Tianpeng from our Celestial Court, also a great general who has slain countless enemies and guarded the Celestial Court for tens of thousands of years. He’s also Sun Wukong’s sworn brother; the two beca fast friends and swore loyalty on the sa day, Quasi-Emperor level."
"But you ntioned Bajie is a Demon Beast boar—why is that? He was never such a creature, and I’ve never heard of him turning into a Demon Beast." Heaven-Howling Dog exclaid.
Chen Lan recounted the recent events, and Heaven-Howling Dog’s expression grew more horrified, but then he suddenly lifted his head in a near-manic burst of laughter.
"Hahaha, I knew it—the monkey won’t die. He won’t die; not even ten million celestial soldiers could kill that monkey, who stord the Underworld alone, causing chaos beyond asure, leaving countless cultivators helpless against Sun Wukong. How could he possibly be killed!"
