Chapter 112 This Time, Old Sun Didn't Lose
The Spiritual Platform of Square Inch Mountain, the slanted moon over the Three-Star Cave.
The Puti Patriarch was sitting upright on a high platform giving a sermon when he suddenly paused, his gaze shifting towards the direction of the East Victorious Divine Continent outside the Three-Star Cave Heaven. His brow slightly furrowed. The Tathagata Buddha had just traversed space with a golden Buddha hand descending upon the East Victorious Divine Continent.
Such a scenario had never occurred before, had it?
In Flower-Fruit Mountain on the East Victorious Divine Continent, which was Wukong's old home, these huge energy fluctuations—could they be him battling the Buddha's Hand?
Twiddling his fingers to calculate, yet only obscurity emerged. The Puti Patriarch could nearly confirm that the other party in the battle was indeed Sun Wukong. Within the Three Realms, the only one who was not bound by the trajectory of fate as decreed by the Heavenly Dao Saint and could not be calculated by the Heavenly Dao, was him!
“This youngster Wukong, why did he confront the Tathagata? His current cultivation strength is still far from matching that of the Tathagata…”
Unable to divine the situation on the battlefield, worry flooded the Puti Patriarch's eyes. He abruptly stood up, dropped a sentence, and his figure flashed, disappearing from sight, “Today's sermon ends here!”
All the disciples were left stunned, mouths agape. What happened to the Puti Patriarch? Why did he leave in the middle of a perfectly good sermon?
In the Puti Patriarch's meditation chamber, a figure flashed, and the Puti Patriarch appeared. He extended his right hand toward the wall and struck out a Dharma Decree. Suddenly, an Ever-Bright Lamp manifested from the wall, its flame flickering slightly and appearing dim, but showing no signs of extinguishing.
The worried look on the face of the Puti Patriarch eased, and he exhaled deeply, “It looks like Wukong should be alright. This youngster really does not let anyone worry-free!”
The Ever-Bright Lamp on the wall was Sun Wukong's life lamp. As long as the lamp did not extinguish, it meant that Sun Wukong was unharmed. The lamp was prepared early by the Puti Patriarch for Sun Wukong. Although he instructed all disciples who left to never reveal anything about the sect, among the many disciples over the years, the only one he truly cared for was Sun Wukong himself!
“This youngster Wukong, it's not yet time to confront the Buddhist Sect head-on. Too impetuous!”
Although his worry for Sun Wukong had lessened, the expression on the Puti Patriarch's face was still troubled. He had great expectations for Sun Wukong, who had not yet fully matured. If the Tathagata Buddha were to focus on him, and if he were to perish prematurely, wouldn't all his efforts be in vain?
“No, I must take action to help this brat myself!”
After contemplating for a moment, a pale green light illuminated the hand of the Puti Patriarch. He extended his palm, and a spatial rift appeared before him. The Puti Patriarch's hand reached straight into the spatial rift.
Western Heaven Spiritual Mountain, Great Thunder Sound Temple.
Sitting on a lotus seat, the Tathagata Buddha's brow furrowed slightly. The Dharma Body he had just sent across space to the East Victorious Divine Continent had been countered!
“Crack!”
Next to the lotus seat, a crystal stone had split open—that was Manjushri Bodhisattva's life crystal. The breakage of the life crystal signified the complete demise of Manjushri Bodhisattva!
“To think that I couldn't save Manjushri Bodhisattva! Who exactly is the other party?”
The Tathagata Buddha had sensed that Manjushri Bodhisattva was in grave danger, which is why he had crossed space to send the Dharma Body's Buddha hand for rescue. But he had still failed to save him, and the Buddha hand was countered. The massive force collision wave emanating from the direction of the East Victorious Divine Continent confirmed this, and it was not an illusion!
Since when did such an expert, able to counter his Buddha hand, emerge from the East Victorious Divine Continent? The emergence of a Quasi-Saint Realm expert should have elicited alarms from the Heavenly Dao, why couldn't he calculate it at all? Too strange!
After pondering for a moment, the Tathagata Buddha waved his hand, and a spatial vortex appeared before him. His palm shone with a golden light as he reached into it.
“I must see for myself, who dares to challenge my Buddhist Bodhisattva!”
If he could not divine it, then he would find out for himself. With the Tathagata himself taking action, he did not believe the other party could withstand him!
“Boom!”
“Sizzle~!”
A muffled sound spread from the spatial vortex; crackling electricity danced around the edges of the vortex. The Tathagata Buddha's expression changed, his palm jerked back from the spatial vortex, trembling slightly. He looked stunned as he watched the spatial vortex collapse and scatter.
“Who is it, who exactly is foiling my plans from the shadows?”
Tathagata Buddha's face darkened, just now in the space vortex channel, a hand stretched out diagonally and stopped his own hand. The collision of forces directly disturbed the space channel, and he could no longer open the space channel to cross over in the short term!
Within the Three-Star Cave Heaven, Puti Patriarch withdrew his hand that had reached into the space rift, suddenly shook off the intruding Buddha Primordial Force, and sighed lightly, “My disciple, this is all your master can do for you. From here on, it's all up to you, take care!”
East Victorious Divine Continent, thousands of miles away from Flower-Fruit Mountain on the battlefield, the pervasive strong light and dust slowly dissipated, revealing the center of the battlefield. The first thing that came into sight was a giant Buddha Palm Seal imprint on the earth, spanning dozens of miles and sinking hundreds of feet into the ground.
Centered around the Buddha Palm Seal, the ground within a thousand miles had sunk significantly, cracks spread everywhere, forming a colossal basin. The cracks extended all the way to the Eastern Sea, and the seawater poured back in, forming rivers that were pouring into the center of the Buddha Palm Seal.
The mountains and forests that previously filled this area had vanished in the cataclysmic collision just moments ago. Read new chapters at empire
In mid-air, the Golden Buddha Hand had already disappeared, only a figure floated a thousand feet above the ground, holding the Ruyi Silver-Hooped Rod; it was Sun Wukong who had just clashed with Tathagata Buddha's Golden Buddha Hand with his Heaven-Breaking Eighteen Rods.
“Tathagata, this time, I, Old Sun, did not lose!”
A murmur arose from Sun Wukong, and the next moment, his eyelids drooped, and he plummeted from midair, crashing into the lake formed by the backfill of seawater in the shape of a Buddha Palm Seal.
“Big brother!”
From afar, a heart-wrenching shout echoed, and several figures flew from the direction of Flower-Fruit Mountain toward the Buddha Palm Seal Lake. This was the last image in Sun Wukong's mind before he plunged into darkness and lost consciousness completely…
…
An intense, bone-chilling cold, as if falling into an icehouse that had lasted for thousands of years, so cold it seemed to freeze the soul; the next moment, it was extremely hot, like the feeling inside the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord's Alchemy Furnace in his previous life, even more intense.
Sun Wukong was tormented by this alternating intense cold and explosive heat, feeling utterly unable to escape, his body seemed completely out of control, and trying to move, he could not feel his own body's existence.
“Where in the world am I? Is this all an illusion?”
Finally, the floating sensation slowly dissipated, and the feeling of control returned to his body. Sun Wukong slowly opened his eyes, slowly sat up, and found himself lying in a sealed room, surrounded by an extremely dense nature's spiritual energy, lying on a huge jade slab colored half red and half blue, faintly feeling the cold and hot breath emitting from it, very bizarre.
“Big brother, you're finally awake!”
The door was pushed open, and the young fox demon Sun Xiaoqing rushed in from outside, throwing herself into Sun Wukong's arms, her face filled with joy, with Leng Xuan and Heaven-Defying Demon Emperor Mu Chengxuan following behind her, their faces also filled with smiles.
“Qing'er, big brother is alright, don't worry!”
Seeing the shiny tear drops emerging from the smiling corners of the little girl's eyes, Sun Wukong felt a surge of warmth in his heart, the feeling of having someone worry and care about him was wonderful! He gently wiped away the tear drops from the young fox demon Sun Xiaoqing's eyes and looked up at Leng Xuan and Mu Chengxuan, somewhat puzzled, asking,
“Where is this place, why is the nature's spiritual energy so abundant here? How long has Old Sun been unconscious?”
“This is the fourth level of the Heaven-Piercing Tower, boss, you've been unconscious for five years!”
Leng Xuan spoke with a hint of emotion, recalling how they found Sun Wukong at Buddha Palm Lake five years ago, with his body covered in dense wounds and cracks like shattered porcelain, bloodstained and shocking, which made the young fox demon Sun Xiaoqing cry her heart out, thinking that Sun Wukong would perish like that.
Fortunately, Mu Chenxuan examined him and found that although Sun Wukong's injuries looked horrific, his essence wasn't damaged, and his body had a strong self-healing ability; soon, no more fresh blood oozed out. Blood, being the essence of qi, preserving blood would preserve life. In Mu Chenxuan's words, providing Sun Wukong with enough nature's spiritual energy would enable him to heal himself.
They carefully took Sun Wukong back to Flower-Fruit Mountain, and Mu Chenxuan found the endpoint of the Spirit Attracting Formation in Water Curtain Cave Heaven and discussed with Leng Xuan, Sun Wushuang, Bull Demon King, and other senior members of Flower-Fruit Mountain Demon Cult, telling them about the stellar spiritual Qi and Sun Wukong's concerns.
They unanimously decided to immediately start building the Heaven-Piercing Tower and set up the endpoint of the Spirit Attracting Formation inside the tower.
This, in turn, provided the Heaven-Piercing Tower with the most abundant supply of spiritual energy, allowing many of Sun Wukong's original ideas for the Heaven-Piercing Tower to be realized. With the tower's array limiting the spiritual energy from escaping, it caused no effect on the whole of Flower-Fruit Mountain, and the Heavenly Court naturally would not notice.
In just over two years, the first four floors of the Heaven-Piercing Tower were established; the remaining five floors could not be built for the time being due to lack of resources and had to be put off. Sun Wukong was moved to the fourth level, where nature's spiritual energy was most abundant. Three years passed in a blink, and he finally awoke!
