Honghuang: Senior Brother of the Chan Sect, I am Guangchengzi
Chapter 353 Repeating the Imperial Chariot in Vain
Chapter 353 Repeating the Imperial Chariot in Vain
As I said, he put on a full show. Facing such a panicked little monster, the Stone Monkey King shouted, “What disaster has happened? Tell me quickly, why are you so panicked? I’ll hold up the sky if it collapses.”
The green-faced, fang-toothed demon swallowed his saliva and said tremblingly, “There is a monkey outside the cave. When he came over, he roared to death the purple-faced one, and then he called the king a bird demon and came to seek revenge. I guess he is the Monkey King those monkeys mentioned!”
The Stone Monkey King said coldly: “You are so impatient when encountering things. How can you be a dirty person? You really deserve to die. Since Zimian is dead, you should not live anymore. Go and accompany him.”
After saying that, the Stone Monkey King slapped the table and chair under him, and before the green-faced little demon could resist, he was immediately beaten to pieces. Without even a scream, he turned into ashes in an instant.
Sun Wukong didn’t have to wait long before the Stone Monkey King flew out of the cave and shouted, “Who is the master of the Water Curtain Cave?”
The Stone Monkey King wore a black gold helmet that shone in the sunlight, and a black silk robe that fluttered in the wind. He also wore black iron armor and tight leather boots. He was as mighty as a general, with a waist that was ten feet wide and a height of three feet. He held a large knife with a sharp and bright blade in his hand. He called himself the Great Devil King and looked very ferocious and ferocious.
This was naturally a special attire worn by the Stone Monkey King in order to make him look more like the King of Chaos for fear of being spotted by Sun Wukong.
Seeing the Stone Monkey King like this, Sun Wukong couldn’t help but admire him, and even felt that his own clothes were really out of place.
Because Bodhi Patriarch preached the Dharma in different ways, sometimes he talked about heaven and sometimes about earth, and sometimes he talked about the various aspects of the world, so that the brothers in the sect would like to be Buddhas or immortals, wear Taoist robes, black clothes, wooden hairpins or jade crowns, wooden shoes or leather boots, each one of them was different, so that Sun Wukong would follow suit.
With his head bare, he looked like a monk; with his red robe on, he looked like a general; with a yellow silk belt around his neck, he looked like a monk; with his black boots on, he looked like a soldier. He was neither a monk nor a layman, neither a Taoist nor a deity. He was a perfect mixture of the two.
Originally Sun Wukong didn’t think it was a big deal, but after seeing the current Demon King, he couldn’t help but feel envious.
Perhaps it was because monkeys were born to like majestic things. He had already made up his mind that after beating this devil to death, he would strip off his clothes and put them on himself!
The Devil King of Chaos was yelling at who was the master of the Water Curtain Cave. Sun Wukong shouted, “You devil, you can’t see me, Sun.”
When the Stone Monkey King saw this, he immediately laughed sarcastically and said, “You little monkey are less than ten feet tall, no more than thirty years old, and have no weapons in your hands. How dare you come to my Shuizang Cave to look for something?”
Sun Wukong cursed: “You are a blind demon. You think I am small, but it is not difficult to grow bigger. You think I have no weapons, but I can reach the moon in the sky with my two hands!
Don’t be afraid. Take my punch and I will beat you so hard that your soul will go back to heaven, worship the Buddha, and then fall into the eighteen levels of hell and suffer thousands of punishments and tortures!”
Then Sun Wukong leaped up, his body surrounded by clouds and mist. His somersault cloud floated in the wind and slowly wrapped around him, like a cloud armor, giving Sun Wukong a somewhat extraordinary demeanor.
Then he jumped up and grabbed the Stone Monkey King in the face. His claws were sharp and pointed, and a cold light could be seen faintly. You can imagine how powerful they are.
But the Stone Monkey King just made a move, and a huge black iron stick appeared in his hand. After a few blows, Sun Wukong was hit directly, gritting his teeth and forced to jump back. He rolled on the somersault cloud and jumped another ten thousand miles away.
The Stone Monkey King laughed and said, “You are so short and I am so tall. Big is better than small. If you don’t surrender, I will make you a horse vanguard. You just need to offer ten monkeys every day.”
When Sun Wukong heard that he was going to sacrifice all his monkeys and grandchildren, he became angry and annoyed. He immediately plucked a handful of hair from the back of his head, chewed it into pieces in his mouth, then blew it into the sky and shouted “Change”. Immediately, the hair turned into two or three hundred little monkeys, which rushed straight towards the Stone Monkey King.
The Stone Monkey King saw this and laughed, “So you also know the art of turning beans into soldiers. If you can turn into little monkeys, I can do the same. Let’s see who is stronger, your monkeys or my army.”
Then the Stone Monkey King reached out and picked up a handful of leaves, chewed them in his mouth, and then spit them upwards. Unexpectedly, they also turned into monkeys.
However, Sun Wukong’s monkeys and their descendants are more like apes, while the monkeys of the Stone Monkey King are much more sturdy, with thighs like small wooden stakes and strong bodies. Compared with them, Sun Wukong’s monkeys seem to be underdeveloped.
Faced with the squeaking and screaming of these little monkeys, the big monkey showed no mercy and pounced on them one by one. You crushed his head with your hands, I broke his waist with my feet, and he killed several of them with his head.
Although there are more little monkeys than big monkeys, and there is a saying that “many ants can kill an elephant”, but judging from the current situation, the little monkeys are completely no match for the big monkeys, and are in a state of continuous defeat.
Seeing that his own technique of turning beans into soldiers did not work, Sun Wukong became afraid. He thought that this Demon King was quite capable and he had to put some effort into it.
He grabbed a handful of hair behind his head again and blew it hard. The hair flew up to the sky, but it did not turn into monkeys that pounced down. Instead, it slowly dissipated into the air and turned into red lightning bolts that struck down directly in an instant, killing hundreds of big monkeys in an instant.
These big monkeys screamed in agony, their hair was burnt black, their whole body was shaking, and their hairy thighs trembled a few times before there was no sound. They were hacked to death alive.
Then the big monkey turned into its original form, which turned out to be just thick monkey hairs.
Under the bombardment of these red-flashing thunderbolts, one big monkey after another was struck to death after wailing, and the little monkeys began to gain the upper hand and counterattack.
The Stone Monkey King was also very surprised when he saw this scene. After all, even if these monkeys were just sent out by him at random, who was he? In the prehistoric world, they were all famous Hunyuan gods.
Even if it was just a random magical skill, only the Daluo Golden Immortal could block it. Even if the Taiyi Golden Immortal came, he would be beaten to death.
However, Sun Wukong relied on his cultivation level before becoming an immortal to forcibly block this magical power that should have been blocked only by the Taiyi Golden Immortal. With such power, one can imagine how abundant the original energy in his body is.
“That’s even better. I don’t dare to ask for the qualifications to make the Nine-Colored Merit Heaven-Repairing Stone, but I should be able to make the Seven-Colored Stone or even the Five-Colored Stone, right?”
A bright golden light flashed in the eyes of the Stone King. He intended to continue using his magical powers and wanted to absorb a ray of Sun Wukong’s essence, but a great feeling of palpitations surged in his heart.
It was as if some extremely terrifying creature had already set its sights on him and was watching his every move closely. If there was any unusual movement, this terrifying creature would kill him without hesitation.
The Stone Monkey King’s hair stood on end with fear, and he immediately realized that his own actions might have angered certain beings, because in the current scenario, Sun Wukong should not act so quickly. If he continued, those beings would not mind destroying him.
I’m afraid even Nuwa would not have any objection to this. After all, he is just a guardian king, but he dares to refine the essence of Sun Wukong.
If you can succeed, Nuwa will not say much. After all, as the leader of a demon cult, Nuwa has an equal heart and will not deliberately prevent anyone from achieving enlightenment. If you have this opportunity, she is willing to help you.
But if you fail and are wiped out, Nuwa will not say much, because you asked for it, you asked for it, and you have to bear the consequences yourself, because Nuwa did not enjoy the sweetness. Under this inexplicable threat, the Stone Monkey King was silent. He didn’t know whether he should continue or retreat quickly.
Until the end, the Stone Monkey King finally sighed and did not want to continue using more magical powers for fear of angering that existence.
He pretended to be defeated and let the little monkeys climb up on him.
These monkeys hugged, pulled, dug into the crotch, twisted the legs, kicked, hit, pulled the hair, picked the eyes, covered the nose, and dug the ears, making the Stone Monkey King very busy. When he shook off this monkey, other monkeys pounced on him. For a while, he had no time to care about where Sun Wukong was.
Sun Wukong seized the opportunity and immediately snatched the iron stick from him. The Stone Monkey King cried out in pain, shouting that he had won unfairly and had actually stolen someone else’s weapon. It would be a laughing stock if others knew about it.
But Sun Wukong didn’t care about that. These little monkeys also tied up the Stone Monkey King. Finally, Sun Wukong took the iron rod, hit it hard, and banged it against the stone monkey’s head.
His brain was turned upside down, and his big head turned into mud. His huge body also fell to the ground with a loud bang, without any sign of life.
Seeing that the Demon King was finally dead, Sun Wukong breathed a sigh of relief. He opened his mouth and swallowed, and the monkeys turned into strands of hair and fell into his mouth.
Sun Wukong opened his mouth and chewed again, then spit out again. The original broken hair turned into those long hairs again and returned to the back of his head, but compared to before, there was still a large bald spot.
After defeating the Demon King, Sun Wukong took a deep breath and felt that this fight was more difficult than his previous ten years of training. He began to make a summary afterwards.
In the end, Sun Wukong felt that the biggest reason why he could not defeat the Demon King was because of his weapon.
The other party has this big iron stick, which he can wield with great speed and no water can get in, while I have bare hands and only magic.
It would be fine if I met someone who doesn’t know any magic, but if he is like the Demon King who also knows magic, then I would be in danger.
“Fortunately, I have snatched the stick from the Demon King, so I now have some strength.”
Sun Wukong held the iron stick. Although the stick was also extraordinary, he always felt that it was a little light. It felt like a strong man swinging an embroidery needle, and he always felt uncomfortable.
Afterwards, Sun Wukong personally went into the water burial cave and rescued dozens of monkeys trapped there.
These monkeys were extremely happy to see Sun Wukong, and they squeaked and cried loudly. Sun Wukong pacified them one by one, then flew up on a cloud and took these monkeys back to the Flower-Fruit Mountain.
When the many monkeys in the Water Curtain Cave saw Sun Wukong returning with the other monkeys, they were all very happy. They came forward to pay homage to the Monkey King, arranged wine and fruits, and welcomed him.
Sun Wukong also liked the hustle and bustle, so he held a banquet and invited all the monkeys to come and have fun together.
At the banquet, Bai Ze asked, “Where did the king go? He actually learned such a method. He could even beat the Devil King to death. He is really amazing!”
Some little monkeys also squeaked, “Yes! Yes! Great King, please tell us where you have been. Let us open our eyes!”
Sun Wukong smiled and said: “This is nothing. Back then, I left you and followed the crowd, drifting across the vast ocean, passing through the southern continent, and learned to be about 70% human.
After several more years of wandering and crossing the boundless ocean, I finally arrived at Hezhou, Xiniu, where I found an old ancestor. He taught me the true merit of living as long as the sky, and the secret of immortality.
Now is the perfect time to teach you, so that we can live together forever, never to be separated again, and never feel the sadness of separation again!”
After hearing this, the monkeys started to squeak and scream in joy, saying, “This is truly a rare opportunity!”
Only one monkey was silent, and his cheering looked a little listless, which made Sun Wukong feel strange. He pointed out, “Little monkey, why are you so listless? Could it be that the Devil King gave you some medicine and made you full?”
The Stone Monkey Dharma King was suddenly pointed at. He came back to his senses from his distress, feeling a little dazed. Seeing that the demon saints and star gods around him were all warning, he forced a smile and said, “It’s me who made the king worried. It’s just that I’ve been scared too much recently and haven’t slept enough, so I took a nap. It’s really not good.”
Seeing that the Stone Monkey King was fine, Sun Wukong smiled and said, “It’s best that you are fine. The monkeys in my Flower-Fruit Mountain should live as long as the sky and coexist with the earth like me. If you die at this time, wouldn’t it be a waste of such a great opportunity?”
After saying this, Sun Wukong laughed again, obviously in a teasing tone. The other monkeys also laughed and then stepped forward to toast him, but intentionally or unintentionally, they separated him from the Stone Monkey King.
After the Stone Monkey King finished speaking, he fell into silence again. He stared blankly at the wine glass in front of him, wondering what he was thinking.
The Bifang Demon Saint quietly came to his side, smiling and cheering, and whispered: “Military Advisor Bai Ze just said that the one who is blocking you is the old man of the Styx who polluted the sea of blood.
I think you know the temper of the Styx Patriarch best, and you can immediately anger him. Besides, you have already given up that opportunity. Now that it is done, you should just accept your fate.”
Upon hearing that it was the Old Ancestor of the Styx who saw him, the Stone Monkey King was speechless.
If it were anyone else, they could still discuss it, but this was not the case with the Old Ancestor of the Styx.
The ancestor of the Styx always keeps his word. Unless a saint tries to stop him, even if other invincible gods come to stop him, he will still have to fight with them.
Besides, I’m afraid only Guangchengzi can persuade the other party.
But now Guangchengzi’s life or death is unknown, and everything will have to wait until after the Journey to the West. Naturally, the Old Ancestor of the Styx fell into his previous temper again and would not allow anyone to refute him. If he didn’t want him to extract the origin of Sun Wukong, no one could do it.
“This is all fate, it’s destined. If you had insisted on extracting it just now, Military Advisor Bai Ze might have stopped the Styx Patriarch for you, but you have already given up that opportunity, and Military Advisor Bai Ze will not continue to resist for you. Just accept your fate.”
After the Bifang Demon Saint finished speaking, he went to toast Sun Wukong again, leaving the Stone Monkey King alone in silence.
