Journey to the West: Sun Wukong's Advice System Chapter 346 - 288: Ruins of the Vast Wilderness

After the three realms shattered, there was a wild breath that ca rushing towards .

Looking beyond the heavens, I saw an even more vast wasteland, boundless and unfathomable, where chaotic currents howled and swept across, everywhere lay broken lands and spaces, deathly silent.

"Is this the ruins left behind after the Vast Wilderness shattered?" Sun Wukong had a realization, and then, like the many powerhouses of the three realms, turned his gaze beyond the ruins of the Vast Wilderness.

There, a white boned giant demon, draped in flesh and blood, with a world filled with demonic qi behind him, was battling the Heavenly Dao’s six saints of the Vast Wilderness.

Everyone knew that it was the Demon Ancestor Luo Hou who had opened up the Luo Tian Demon Realm, his aura far surpassing the Demonic Thoughts that possessed Wutian, and far more terrifying than a single hand from Luo Tian.

And after the three realms broke apart, Luo Hou finally pulled his hand out of the Vast Wilderness’ ruins and was able to make his move with full strength.

His white bone eye sockets flickered with demonic fla, as he coldly sneered at the six Heavenly Dao saints, "You’ve managed to restrain for a mont, which is quite impressive, but that is all, I just happen to be in need of so servants of the Dao, you’ll fill my ranks."

Facing the siege of the six saints, Luo Hou was not afraid in the slightest; in fact, there was not so much as a ripple in his composure, instead, he regarded the six saints as his prey.

At this mont, The Three Pure Ones, Lady Nuwa, and the two saints of the West bore a solemn expression. They all understood that a fierce battle was coming, and perhaps a saint might fall.

The Yu Qing saint, Yuan Shi Tian Zun, looked solemn, but spoke with a defiant tone, "You are nothing but a loser abandoned by the era, dood to fail!"

In his hands, the Pan Gu banner was constantly evolving the forces of earth, fire, water, and wind. As the renowned slaying treasure of the Vast Wilderness, the power of the Pan Gu banner was not to be underestimated.

However, the current Luo Hou was simply too powerful.

Boom!

Yuan Shi went all out, slashing with the Pan Gu banner like an axe blade. As the bloody divine light swept by, the entire Vast Wilderness’ ruins trembled violently.

Nevertheless, Luo Hou didn’t even use any magical treasure, his white boned giant hand struck out directly, shattering the bloody divine light, and continued to pound outwards in a sweeping motion.

The color drained from Yuan Shi Tian Zun’s face; he barely had ti to raise the Pan Gu banner to block, before he was struck into the ruins of the Vast Wilderness, crashing through countless pieces of land and fragnts of space, and finally a mouthful of colorful sacred blood burst forth violently.

Luo Hou then walked with large strides through the chaotic currents along with the Luo Tian Demon Realm behind him, sneering, "Where does this confidence co from? I was just letting you make your move, and you grew bold, little do you know that the so-called path of virtuous saints is the weakest one!"

"Pfft..." Another mouthful of blood left Yuan Shi Tian Zun, as the words wounded him through the air.

At the sa ti, Nu Wa also made her move.

The Map of Mountains and Rivers grew imnsely large, suppressing the four quarters.

And the Innate Spirit Root’s gourd vine swept across like a long whip, with the power of creation laws spawning all things within the Map of Mountains and Rivers; landscapes of mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas stretched across, blocking Luo Hou’s path.

On the other side, as the three realms had been destroyed, the two saints of the West had no way to retreat,

Jieyin birthed thousands of Buddhas with a single thought, and boundless Buddha light spread across the edge of the Vast Wilderness’ ruins, just like a sacred Buddhist land.

Quan Tit, on the other hand, coalesced a massive Bodhi Tree Dharma form, standing in the center of the Buddhist land, forming the Bodhi Formation.

It was a world within a flower, a Bodhi within a leaf.

When the formation turned into a tree, the leaves on that tree seed endless, like flowers seen in the fog, hiding countless layers of Mount ru spaces.

The two saints of the West personally ford and defended the array, and its power was many tis stronger than the Bodhi Formation ford by the monks of Mount Ling earlier, also halting Luo Hou’s advance.

The demonic might of Luo Hou was supre, using no magical treasures and relying solely on his demonic body, he shattered the obstruction of thousands of mountains, and entered the Buddhist land covered by the Bodhi Formation.

And at that mont, boom, boom, boom, boom!

Four enormous sounds nearly rang out simultaneously, four huge swords appeared at the edge of the Vast Wilderness’ ruins, stirring up boundless killing intent.

The Zhu Xian Sword, the Sword of Absolute Immortality, the Entrapping Immortal Sword, the Sword of Slaying Immortals, with the four swords forming an array.

Tongtian stood with the Qing Ping Sword on the majestic array, pointing it at Luo Hou, "You shall not step into the Vast Wilderness."

Enormous sword light, carrying overwhelming killing intent, shot towards the giant white boned demon.

Luo Hou mockingly sneered, "Without the law of destruction, how can you display the true might of the Zhu Xian Sword Formation?"

The Godslaying Spear, Zhu Xian Sword Formation, the Black Lotus of World Destruction, the Nine Demon Tower, all had once been his treasures.

With that, his demonic flas soaring sky-high, he crossed over the Buddhist nation, broke through the Bodhi Formation, approached even closer to the ruins of the Vast Wilderness, and then began to battle Tongtian.

The surviving strong ones from the three realms all understood the situation there.

It seed the Demon Ancestor Luo Hou was intent on bringing his Luo Tian Demon Realm into the ruins of the Vast Wilderness.

Sun Wukong’s keen eyes shimred with divine light, his attention focused on Tongtian.

Looking at the young Daoist with a cold visage, the Monkey King felt both anticipation and doubt, "Could it be my master?"

About who exactly is his master Bodhi Patriarch, Wukong often saw netizens bring it up on Zhihu. The views of the netizens varied.

So said it was Buddha Tathagata, or Buddha Tathagata’s disciple Subhuti, or even Chan Teaching’s Yu Ding Zhen Ren.

From these years’ experiences, these three were clearly not the case.

So netizens thought it was Taishang Laojun.

Initially, Wukong had his suspicions, but after several encounters and tests, he could confirm it was not him.

Another theory was that it was Tongtian, but this had never been verified.

When he first went to the Heavenly Court to take office, Sun Wukong could see so hints from the attitudes of those disciples from the Sect of Interception, but that didn’t prove that the Bodhi Patriarch was Tongtian.

Also, following the path he had first taken in search of immortality, he had sought Magic Square Mountain, only to find out that Magic Square Mountain had long been desolate, and neither his master Bodhi Patriarch nor the woodcutter Da Yi could be found.
