The bull-headed Divine Spirit, engulfed in flas, let out waves of agonizing screams. The flas fanned out by Han Zhongli scorched his soul, filling his heart with fear. Regretting deeply now, he shouldn’t have listened to others and ventured into that forbidden place; he beseeched piteously amidst the flas.
With an impassive face, Han Zhongli disregarded the Divine Spirit’s pleas. He watched the desperate struggles as if observing an insignificant ant, without a ripple in his heart. At this mont, he seed to embody a true Divine Spirit, high above the Nine Heavens, watching indifferently, devoid of pity.
The Divine Spirit’s wailing spread far and wide, instilling fear in the nearby Barbarian Divine Spirits. The scene reminded them of the terror of the Kyushu lands, and they felt fortunate for their own rationality for not entering the fray themselves, lest the bull-headed Divine Spirit’s present should beco their future.
"The lands of Kyushu, I would rather die than go there," thought the Divine Spirits.
Han Zhongli silently watched the death of the bull-headed Divine Spirit, then turned and left without uttering a single word, but his recent actions had already starkly warned the other restless Barbarian Divine Spirits with a brutal truth. Enjoy more content from .Côm
To kill the chicken to warn the monkey, there was no better example than this.
The death of their Divine Spirit ant the Jie People ultimately lost their support. In this dog-eat-dog land, without the protection of a Divine Spirit, extinction was inevitable.
So when the remaining Jie People returned to their territory with a feeling akin to having escaped death, they were t with attacks from other Barbarian Tribes.
Like wild dogs slling blood, they sward in, slaughtering the Jie’s young and able-bodied, abducting their won and children, and carving up their territory.
The once mighty Jie tribe gradually vanished under these circumstances, becoming the first Barbarian Tribe to disappear amidst the chaos of the Five Barbarians.
This greatly boosted the confidence of the People of Han in the northern territories. As Ran Min’s kill order against the Barbarians spread, a surge of slaughtering the Barbarians comnced across the north, with countless Barbarians dying in this cataclysm, severely weakening the Barbarians’ resolve to annihilate the People of Han.
As a result, Ran Min established the state of Ran Wei, historically known as Ran Wei.
At the base of the Five Elents Mountain, Lu Yu walked into the mountain with a regal bearing. The Mountain God and Earth God had grown accustod to his presence, barely giving him a glance before letting him pass, albeit with a rather unfriendly deanor.
Lu Yu just smiled, his skin thick enough by now to overlook the Earth God’s scowl.
Upon entering Five Elents Mountain, he saw the Monkey still diligently cultivating, which made him reflective. It truly shad him that soone as naturally gifted as the Monkey was still striving hard.
He didn’t rush to disturb the Monkey’s cultivation but quietly observed the Five Elents Mountain. Now that he had fully awakened the Five Qi, he was in pursuit of the Five Qi Congealing Essence. The Five Elents Mountain was a technique of the Buddha Ancestor, founded on the Five Qi Congealing Essence.
Seeing this mountain could offer him a glimpse into the profound mysteries of the Five Qi Congealing Essence.
Flashes of thunder passed through his eyes, a special Dharma Eye, a result of his recent ditative retreat.
Through his Dharma Eye, Lu Yu could clearly see how the Five Qi circulated endlessly within the Five Elents Mountain, forming a world of its own. This held significant referential value for his future path. However, he was acutely aware that while he could learn from it, he mustn’t simply imitate it; otherwise, he would lose his own Great Dao.
Just then, the Monkey awoke from his ditation, and two beams of golden light shot forth directly from his eyes, a symbol that his cultivation of Brass Eye had reached a new level.
"Congratulations, congratulations, you’ve finally mastered this spell," Lu Yu said to the Monkey with a smile.
Ever since the smoke from the Eight Trigrams Furnace had damaged the Monkey’s eyes, the two of them had been discussing how to redy this hidden danger. It was only later that they gradually ca up with the idea of Brass Eye. During this ti, being suppressed under the Five Elents Mountain gave the Monkey a rare mont of tranquility and plenty of ti to ponder.
Unexpectedly, he managed to develop a technique that turned waste into treasure, transforming his damaged eyes into a divine skill that could see through illusions. It was a rare kind of Dharma Eye. Based on this, Lu Yu also developed a divine skill unique to his own Dharma Eye.
Upon hearing that the Monkey had nad his Dharma Eye the Brass Eye, he couldn’t be outdone. Thus, he nad his own Dharma Eye the Thunderous True Eyes. Similar to the Monkey’s divine skill, it could see through illusions, and the thunder within his eyes could be used as a ans of attack.
"You’re not too shabby either. I see the thunderous light in your eyes is quite powerful, which clearly shows that you’ve also mastered the technique you ntioned," said the Monkey, smiling.
"Haha, it’s all thanks to so serendipity," Lu Yu laughed as he recounted his experiences in the Thunder World to the Monkey, knowing that these stories were what the Monkey trapped in the Five Elents Mountain longed to hear the most. Only at tis like this did the Monkey feel free.
It seed as though with every new wonder of the world Lu Yu witnessed...
When Lu Yu spoke of the anomalies that occurred when Lord Lingbao took action, the Monkey’s mouth fell open in amazent. Such a realm was beyond his imagination. In his mind, power should be like Yang Jian’s and his—changing the world, making ti and space stand still. Such thods completely exceeded his understanding.
"When I was in the Heavenly Court, I often heard the immortals exclaim about the power of the Three Pure Ones, but I never saw them act. I knew nothing of their strength. Now, listening to your tales gives the chills," the Monkey said, reflecting deeply.
"Isn’t that the truth? You haven’t seen it. When that sword appeared, the world turned to just black and white. Standing there, I felt as though ti and space ceased to exist. I was like a character drawn on paper, everything controlled by soone else’s hand. It was an unbearable feeling." Even now, Lu Yu felt a shiver recalling it.
Under that Heavenly Venerable’s hand, he was probably no different from an ant.
"Transcendence, is this what transcendence is? Scholar, one day I’ll transcend too," said the Monkey, his fighting spirit roused by Lu Yu’s words. He had found a new direction. Previously, his quest was for immortality, but now he had a new goal—transcendence. He desired to stand at the pinnacle of the world and truly see this world.
"Good, let’s reach the highest point of the world together," Lu Yu said, his spirit surging. Having a friend like the Monkey to accompany him on his journey was his greatest gain.
Of course, by the ti they reached that point, perhaps he would co to understand the reason behind his transmigration. Initially, Lu Yu thought his journey across worlds was rely a random event, but after learning that the Ancestral Master might also be a transmigrator, he held another speculation—that his own transmigration could likely be related to the Ancestral Master.
However, his current power was too weak to unravel this mystery. Maybe, when he reached that sa realm, he would discover the truth.
"By the way, I’ve brought you sothing nice this ti," Lu Yu said with a smile.
As the Monkey looked on expectantly, Lu Yu slowly opened his palm. In it lay a tiny insect, motionless as if peacefully asleep, with a peculiar aura swirling around it.
