Chapter 1170: Chapter 501: The Passage of Time! Fifty Years in the Blink of an Eye! (2)
Time!
Silently passes by!
Since Qin conquered the Northern Domain of East Sheng Divine Continent.
It’s uncertain whether a great calamity is imminent, or if the Heavenly Court has already become wary of Qin.
Now, the Heavenly Court has only reinforced the troops to guard the strong passes of the two continents, but dare not send Immortals to the Lower Realm of East Sheng Divine Continent, as descending means a path of no return.
Between heaven and earth.
The Four Great Continents.
Also entered a mysterious calm, with only small forces in Nan Zhanbu Continent still vying amongst themselves, yet those forces with Quasi-Saint strong persons remain relatively peaceful.
In the blink of an eye.
Fifty years have passed.
For mortals, most of a lifetime has gone, entering the age of seventy.
But for cultivators, it’s only a flicker, merely a period of retreat.
Nan Zhanbu Continent!
Three Star Cave.
"Little junior brother."
"You’ve received the personal teachings of the master, quite a few divine skills have been imparted to you."
"Come, show us a demonstration."
In the cultivation square of Three Star Cave, many disciples surrounded a monkey, teasing him.
Under the teasing of these disciples.
Sun Wukong was quite pleased.
All these years of cultivation, Fangcun Mountain has become Sun Wukong’s third home, and he is well-acquainted with his senior and junior brothers, deeply fond of them.
For Sun Wukong.
Huaguo Mountain is where he was nurtured, his first home, then came Qin, where he had grown accustomed for several years, practiced martial arts, embarked on the path of cultivation, and realized the true world.
And the third.
Naturally, is Three Star Cave.
Initially.
When Sun Wukong first arrived, he thought it was arranged by the Buddhist sect, so he rejected the people and matters of Three Star Cave, but as time passed, the master’s gracious guidance, and the senior and junior brothers’ acceptance, gradually integrated Sun Wukong into the cave.
In Three Star Cave, peaceful and free.
Now.
Sun Wukong, with his inherent talent and the resources given monthly by Qin, his cultivation has reached the Martial Arts King Realm, equivalent to the Taiyi Realm of Immortal Cultivation.
But his combat prowess rivals the Taiyin Golden Immortal Peak.
This is the current Sun Wukong.
"Then I shall demonstrate."
Sun Wukong said proudly.
Then he directly showed a divine skill.
"Transform."
Sun Wukong shouted, directing his True Yuan.
In the next moment.
The monkey’s appearance altered.
Directly transforming into the likeness of a senior brother.
"Dear junior brothers, allow me to explain the techniques to you."
Sun Wukong spoke earnestly.
"Hahaha."
"Don’t really say, Wukong’s transformation technique is truly remarkable, the Earthly Fiendish 72 Transformations have been grasped perfectly."
"Indeed."
"Can’t see any anomaly."
"Impressive..."
The senior and junior brothers teased one after another.
Then.
A halo flashed over Sun Wukong’s body.
Transforming from the senior brother’s appearance to Xu Puti’s likeness.
Then.
He waved the horsetail whisk in his hand.
"Rebellious disciple."
"You better diligently cultivate."
"Else don’t blame me for punishing you with seclusion in the rear mountains."
Sun Wukong spoke earnestly to the senior and junior brothers around.
Seeing his demeanor, the surrounding senior and junior brothers were completely startled as if it were real.
Those who were teasing dared not speak anymore.
And at this moment!
"Wukong."
A voice sounded from behind.
Upon hearing this voice.
Sun Wukong, still transformed as Xu Puti, was startled, his body froze.
The surrounding senior and junior brothers also hurriedly bowed towards the direction of the voice: "Greetings, Master."
Sun Wukong also quickly dispersed his True Yuan, restoring his original appearance.
"Master."
Sun Wukong turned around anxiously, and as expected, Xu Puti had already appeared.
"All disperse."
Xu Puti glanced around, speaking to the disciples, yet his gaze rested upon Sun Wukong.
"Disciples retreat."
The disciples were quite anxious and hurriedly dispersed.
"Wukong."
Xu Puti looked at Sun Wukong, his gaze carrying a hint of complexity.
"Master."
"The disciple was wrong."
Sun Wukong looked at Xu Puti with anxiety and guilt.
"What wrong is there?"
Xu Puti smiled lightly, showing no signs of anger.
"The disciple dare not desecrate the master’s self." Sun Wukong replied anxiously.
"All things of heaven and earth, nurtured by the heavens."
"What is desecration?"
"Wukong."
"How many years have you been on Fangcun Mountain?" Xu Puti turned, asking solemnly.
"To reply to the master."
"The disciple has been on Fangcun Mountain for a full sixty years." Sun Wukong respectfully replied.
"Sixty years."
"A lifetime for mortals, a flash for cultivators."
"Unknowingly."
"It has been so many years."
"Now, it is time for you to descend the mountain." Xu Puti spoke slowly.
Upon hearing this.
Sun Wukong’s entire expression changed, hastily kneeling before Xu Puti: "Master, the disciple should not desecrate, beg the master not to send the disciple down the mountain."
"Do you remember when you first arrived?"
"I could see."
"You probably realized your fate was manipulated, so you rejected Fangcun Mountain to some extent." Xu Puti smiled slightly, his gaze falling on Sun Wukong with insight.
Upon hearing!
Sun Wukong immediately said: "Indeed, when I first came to Fangcun Mountain, I was indeed quite resistant, because I knew the Buddhist sect, I knew they wanted to use the disciple, but so many years have passed, the master treats me extremely well, besides the predecessor, the best person to the disciple."
"The disciple now possesses his current cultivation, all thanks to the master’s gift."
"No matter what relationship the master has with the Buddhist sect, the disciple will always respect the master."
Listening to Sun Wukong’s statement, Xu Puti’s old face showed a touch of relief.
For him, having initially accepted the Buddhist sect’s request to take Sun Wukong under his wing, he was naturally reluctant, but as time passed, he too was moved by this genuine monkey, naturally accepting it, imparting spells and divine skills without any reservation, treating with kindness.
"Foolish child."
"Your respect for me, as your master, brings me great comfort."
"However."
"Now, sixty years have passed, and you’ve achieved success in cultivation, there’s nothing more I can teach you."
"I’m aware of your martial arts cultivation."
"In summary."
"Now is also the time for you to descend the mountain." Xu Puti sighed, despite the reluctance, unable to halt the commencement of the great calamity.
Further unable to prevent Sun Wukong’s descent.
Because it is destiny.
"Master."
"When you initially accepted the Buddhist sect’s request to take the disciple in."
"Were you coerced by the Buddhist sect?"
"Did the Buddhist sect hold some leverage over the master?" Sun Wukong raised his head, and asked with concern.
Although unsure of his master’s exact cultivation level, Sun Wukong perceives it as vast and boundless, far exceeding the martial arts master Zhao Wu in Qin.
To subject his master to such constraints, besides the Buddhist sect holding some leverage, there’s no other possibility.
Listening to Sun Wukong’s words.
Xu Puti’s eyes flashed with a hint of helplessness, but it quickly disappeared.
"As your master, hiding on Fangcun Mountain, never revealing to the world, can there be any leverage held by the Buddhist sect?"
"Foolish child."
"Descend the mountain."
"Take good care of yourself." Xu Puti waved the horsetail whisk.
Seeing Xu Puti’s silence.
Sun Wukong also wore an innocent expression, knowing with his own strength, he might change nothing.
But after pondering for a moment, Sun Wukong’s eyes brightened, immediately saying: "Master!"
"If you’re indeed subject to some constraint by the Buddhist sect, I suggest engaging with Qin."
"The predecessor is a good man, he can surely help the master."
Upon hearing!
Xu Puti smiled: "All along, you’ve said the predecessor treats you extremely well, but who exactly is the predecessor you speak of in Qin Court?"
"The predecessor is the Crown Prince of Qin, named Zhao Feng."
Sun Wukong immediately replied.
Upon hearing this.
Xu Puti revealed a look of understanding, then thoughtfully said: "So it’s him, no wonder."
"His strength, now indeed is at the top level in the world!"
