"Is this the Divine Skill 'Law of Heaven and Earth'? Incredible!", Jiang Liu marveled inwardly as he watched the giant monkey rising to a height of a hundred zhang.
With such Supernatural Powers, it was hard to fathom just how powerful this Monkey had beco.
Yet, even such a mighty Monkey was suppressed; it seed facing the Buddha at Western Spirit Mountain would be much harder than he had imagined.
Having been oppressed for five hundred years, Sun Wukong was filled with grievances. Naturally, he loathed the Five Elents Mountain deeply. After lifting it, he delivered a punishing punch onto the mountain, causing rocks to scatter and a sound like thunder to follow. As he moved, chunks of mountain shattered and sprayed into the air.
Bang bang bang!
Punch after punch landed ceaselessly on the Five Elents Mountain as if venting five hundred years of bitterness all at once.
Within Jiang Liu's astonished gaze, the entire Five Elents Mountain before Sun Wukong seed incredibly fragile. In just monts, it turned into countless rocks of various sizes, scattering all around.
After venting for a while, Sun Wukong felt much better. With a shift in his figure, he retracted his Divine Skill 'Law of Heaven and Earth' and in the blink of an eye appeared in front of Jiang Liu, looking up at him, "Master, thank you for freeing . I, Old Sun, am willing to accompany you to Western Heaven."
"Monkey, stop ssing around, speak properly…", Jiang Liu's lip twitched slightly.
"Heh heh heh, what I, Old Sun, said was quite nice, wasn't it? Don't you want , Old Sun, to accompany you?", scratching his ears and cheeks, Sun Wukong asked with a laugh.
Seeing Sun Wukong's deanor, now free and seemingly in high spirits, Jiang Liu did not linger on that topic.
However, surveying the surroundings littered with rubble, where practically no space was left to even plant one's foot, he turned and said, "Alright, Cheeky Monkey, let's go..."
Walking beside Jiang Liu, the Monkey, originally only about one and a half ters tall and now walking with bent legs, looked even shorter, resembling a child of seven or eight years old.
"Master, what kind of na is 'Cheeky Monkey'? I always feel like you're scolding ," Sun Wukong said.
"No, that's a misconception," Jiang Liu replied.
"Then, can it be changed?"
"Sure, you've heard 'a day as your teacher ans a lifeti as your father', right? Call 'Dad' then."
"..."
Sun Wukong and Jiang Liu, under the moonlight, continued their journey westward while chatting.
anwhile, at Western Spirit Mountain, the Tathagata sat upon the Lotus Platform, suddenly sensing sothing. He lifted his palm, and a golden Buddha Seal fell into his hand.
"Amitabha, that Monkey has co out," he stowed the Buddha Seal away, and the Tathagata looked far beyond, crossing the constraints of ti and space, to see Sun Wukong furiously smashing the Five Elents Mountain, yet he breathed an inward sigh of relief.
In the Mortal World, night had fallen, but at Western Spirit Mountain, it was still daylight.
"Amitabha, that's good...", hearing the Tathagata's words, Bodhisattva Guanyin underneath his seat, also secretly sighed in relief.
Being deceived by Sun Wukong made her feel slightly embarrassed, as if she had not done her job well. Fortunately, even though there was a hiccup, the end result turned out well. Experience tales with empire
Elsewhere, at the Heavenly Court, the Great Jade Emperor sat quietly, watching several graceful Fairies dance before him, as ethereal as startled swans.
The Great Jade Emperor, gazing down from his high seat, nodded with a content expression.
Reaching out his hand, he picked a resplendent grape and popped it into his mouth, nodding slightly.
"Hmm?" However, at this mont, the Great Jade Emperor's expression suddenly changed, and shortly after, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, "Has that rascal monkey co out?"
After murmuring quietly to himself, the Great Jade Emperor paid no further attention and continued to watch the fairy's enchanting dance before him.
Everything was rely part of the plan and not worth fussing over.
But, seated below, a delicate little boy with a face carved from jade suddenly wore a smile, his eyes brimming with fighting spirit.
...
Disregarding what gods and Buddha from all heavens might think about Sun Wukong leaving the Five Elents Mountain, in the mortal world, day had already broken. Liu Boqin from Fork Ridge got up as usual, dressed, and prepared to go hunting.
But as he stepped out of his house, he suddenly felt as if sothing was amiss. After walking a few more steps, he abruptly turned around, his face filled with disbelief.
Mount of the Two Realms!? Gone!?
Shaken to the core, Liu Boqin hurried towards that area and soon saw the ground littered with rubble, dense and nurous, but Mount of the Two Realms had indeed vanished.
Stunned like a wooden chicken, what on earth had happened here? The Holy Monk Xuanzang and the monkey that had been suppressed under the mountain were also nowhere to be seen...
Elsewhere, after half a night's travel, Jiang Liu sat on a rock, with a pot suspended over a fire, cooking porridge that was fragrant with minced at, vegetable leaves, and a pinch of salt.
Two large bowls for Jiang Liu and Sun Wukong; each seated on one side with a bowl of their own.
"Hmm, Master, your cooking skills are truly remarkable. I, Old Sun, have tasted many a dragon's liver and phoenix marrow, exquisite elixirs, but what you cook has a unique flavor indeed," without fear of burning his mouth, he took a big gulp, smacking his lips, Sun Wukong praised as he spoke.
In response to Sun Wukong's words, Jiang Liu rely smiled and didn't say much, but with a thought, he asked Sun Wukong, "By the way, monkey, with your vast divine skills and many abilities, do you have any impressive techniques you could teach your master?"
Indeed, if Sun Wukong had any impressive supernatural powers to teach him, he could simply transcribe them, couldn't he? It would beco a skill book.
Throw in so skill points, and he'd learn it in no ti, right?
"No, no, I, Old Sun's techniques were all passed down by Ancestor Bodhi, and they absolutely must not be passed on to others," Sun Wukong said, shaking his head vigorously as if it were a rattle-drum at Jiang Liu's words.
"This Ancestor Bodhi is really too stingy," Jiang Liu muttered under his breath with so disappointnt upon hearing Sun Wukong's reply.
Clang! Sun Wukong's bowl slipped from his hands and shattered upon hitting the ground.
"You, how do you know about Ancestor Bodhi?" Sun Wukong's eyes widened with astonishnt as he looked at Jiang Liu.
When he had completed his learning and left Square Inch Mountain, Ancestor Bodhi had told him that no matter what kind of major trouble he caused, he should never reveal his na. Therefore, Sun Wukong had never told anyone about the existence of Ancestor Bodhi, not even the Great Jade Emperor or the Tathagata had knowledge of this. How could he know?
"Eh? Didn't you ntion him during our conversation about your experiences last night?" Jiang Liu replied with a question.
"? Did I ntion it last night?" Confused, Sun Wukong racked his mories. Although he had talked about his life experiences last night, he'd ntioned only that he left Flower Fruit Mountain, found a celebrated teacher, and acquired earth-shattering divine skills within a few years, but he hadn't said a word about the na of Ancestor Bodhi, had he?
"Alright, alright, these are just trivial details, not worth fussing over," Jiang Liu waved his hand, aware that he had misspoken. He then opened his storage space and, with a raise of his palm, pushed another bowl into Sun Wukong's hands.
Observing Jiang Liu's techniques, Sun Wukong's eyes flickered subtly.
"This monk, although his cultivation level is low, seems quite extraordinary. Was that just now the Sleeve Universe divine skill?"
