Journey to the West: Starting from Changing Sun Wukong’s fate
Chapter 135 - 135 135 My Dignified Saintly Avatar Failed to Deduce

135: Chapter 135: My Dignified Saintly Avatar Failed to Deduce 135: Chapter 135: My Dignified Saintly Avatar Failed to Deduce As all the Deities of the celestial Court saw another Great Formation condense over Mount Huaguo, they were stunned.

They had originally thought that after breaking through two Great Formations, they would be able to see the full view of Mount Huaguo.

To their surprise, there was yet another Great Formation standing quietly above the Void.

With lightning flashing continuously in the sky, the entire Mount Huaguo was enveloped in a layer of divine aura.

However, for some reason, the celestial Court Deities present twitched at the corners of their eyes upon seeing the Mountain Protection Array.

They couldn’t help but feel frantic in their hearts.

How cautious and meticulous must one be to arrange three Great Formations here?

Break through it, or not?

At this moment, all the celestial Court Deities present started to hesitate.

Who knows if below this third layer there might still be a fourth?

A fifth?

…

After all, with Sun Wukong, it seemed that anything could happen, and probably would happen.

“Again!”

However, just as the celestial Court Deities hesitated, they heard Military Counselor Wen let out another roar.

Everyone couldn’t help but unanimously turn their heads, only to see Military Counselor Wen roar, and the Nine-sectioned Golden Whip in his hand crashed down furiously.

“Boom!”

“Boom!”

“Boom!”

“Boom, boom!”

“Crack!”

“Boom!”

It was not just three Nine Heavens Divine Thunders, but six.

The six Nine Heavens Divine Thunders exploded with terrifying light.

At the same time, they struck down towards the Great Formation above Mount Huaguo with a thunderous fall.

Clearly, Military Counselor Wen was enraged too and wanted to break the Great Formation of Mount Huaguo in one fell swoop.

No matter how many layers there were, all would be shattered together.

But after six consecutive thunderous eruptions, even the Cultivation Level of the Thunder Department’s Twenty-Four Star Lords left them somewhat breathless.

Under such an intense Array, even for those Daluo Golden Immortals who had existed since the Ancient Times, it was somewhat unbearable.

The terrifying thunder displayed a fearsome power, exploding once more above Mount Huaguo, scattering in all directions.

At this time, the thunder roared with incomparable might, causing shock and awe.

The blinding lightning, scattering and twisting, was like serpents of thunder dispersing, obliterating the living beings of the Nine Heavens.

Almost as soon as the thunderbolts fell, the entire Mount Huaguo was enveloped in lightning.

Even the protective Array arranged by the many celestial Court Deities, under such terrifying might, caused some of the lower-Cultivation Level celestial Soldiers and Generals to be affected, and they vomited mouthfuls of fresh blood.

And that was with the protection of the Array.

Such fearsome power could probably annihilate a late-stage Great Luo Golden Immortal Cultivator, yet now it was only being used against a monkey.

For a time, all the celestial Court Deities watching from Nine Heavens above revealed strange expressions, looking at the silhouettes in the sky.

It seemed Military Counselor Wen had utterly committed to his grudge against Sun Wukong.

Boom, boom, boom!

A series of roars erupted, and amidst the terrifying thunder, these fearsome thunderbolts directly struck the Great Formation of Mount Huaguo.

In an instant, around Mount Huaguo, within a radius of a million miles, living beings nearly perished from the blasts, some were severely injured, some spewed fresh blood, and some were deafened by the thunder.

Even the celestial Court Deities had to close their eyes against the blinding glare.

However, Military Counselor Wen kept gazing at Mount Huaguo.

Even he couldn’t help but gasp for air, his chest heaved violently as he stared into the depths of the endless blinding lightning.

He refused to believe that this could not break Sun Wukong’s Array.

After all, such terrifying power of thunder should have directly shattered the Array, even if Sun Wukong had set up several layers.

Yet, there was Taibai Jinxing in the clouds, watching this scene unfold.

“By all accounts, it shouldn’t be so easily broken!”

Although Taibai Jinxing might not be the one who understood Sun Wukong the best, he had nonetheless entered Sun Wukong’s Arrays twice.

He could somewhat guess that Sun Wukong would not set up such an easily broken Array.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have nearly gone mad twice within Sun Wukong’s Arrays.

Although he should side with the celestial Court, he did not wish for Sun Wukong to be captured so quickly, but rather hoped that these celestial Court Deities would experience his past desperation.

At this time, as the lightning gradually dissipated, the Great Formation over Mount Huaguo was yet to be breached and still emitted light.

For some reason, this time, they were all taken aback upon seeing the Array.

Such potent power was unable to break through the Array.

“Military Counselor Wen!”

At this time, one of the Thunder Department Star Lords who was presiding over the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Great Formation hesitantly looked at Military Counselor Wen.

“Are we still going to break it?”

Asked another Thunder Department Star Lord.

Hearing this, even the composed Military Counselor Wen couldn’t help feeling agitated and frustrated.

It simply was impossible.

The previous three Nine Heavens Divine Thunders had directly broken through the second layer of the Array, yet this time, six Nine Heavens Divine Thunders seemingly didn’t even scratch the surface of the Array.

To know that the might of these six Nine Heavens Divine Thunders was such that even late-stage Great Luo Golden Immortals could not withstand them, and even if they were lucky enough to survive, they would probably lose a layer of skin.

Yet the third Great Formation laid by Sun Wukong didn’t even scratch the surface.

It could even be said to be completely useless.

How could one break through such a formation, if it was entirely unbreakable?

If they continued and it remained useless, only leading to their own troops falling directly into the Array, then they would become the laughingstock of others.

Watching Wen Zhong refrain from issuing further orders, the many Thunder Department Star Lords present couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

They too were worried about failing to break this Great Formation and feared that even if they did, another one awaited them.

After all, the fear was not that they couldn’t break through, but that they could never know how many more Formations were waiting for them.

At that moment, Wen Zhong, left with no choice, directly abandoned further attacks with Formations.

“We’re leaving!”

Wen Zhong spoke and led the Thunder Department Deities back towards the celestial Court.

It really was embarrassing, having used the Great Formation’s power so many times yet still failing to make a breakthrough, how could they have the face to stay there?

At this time, Taibai Jinxing, who was hidden in the clouds above, witnessed this scene and shook his head, “They’ve given up just like that, far too easily!”

To know that he was once tormented by Sun Wukong’s Formation to the brink of death and in the end still couldn’t break out of it.

Now, Wen Zhong had given up after breaking only two layers of the Formation, which was simply giving up too easily.

However, he did not leave, for spectacles like this weren’t always available to witness.

On the other side, Sun Wukong, who was also paying attention to Li Jing and the others trying to break the Formation, couldn’t help but smile wryly.

“If I had known, I would have withdrawn a few Great Formations, what a waste!”

Sun Wukong shook his head helplessly; he had misjudged the situation, thinking the celestial Court had the power to break through his Formations, else he wouldn’t have laid so many powerful ones.

Unfortunately, these celestial Court Deities seemed to be a tad weaker than he had imagined!

“But next, should I go easy on them?”

Sun Wukong started to ponder seriously, his furry face showing a reflective look.

After all, if these celestial Court Deities couldn’t handle him, then the Jade Emperor would surely send even more powerful forces from the celestial Court.

The strongest celestial Court Deity sent now was only the Seven Killings Star Lord Zhang Kui, with a mid-stage Great Luo Golden Immortal cultivation level.

He could handle himself against such divine skills, but if a Quasi-Saint Level master came after him, then Sun Wukong would not be able to deal with it so simply.

“It seems I really need to think of a strategy!”

Sun Wukong firmed up his resolve.

But he truly had not expected these celestial Court Deities to be so weak.

After all, Wen Zhong was a mid-stage Great Luo Golden Immortal figure, commanding the second-ranked department known for its recklessness, the Thunder Department.

His strength should have been much greater than Sun Wukong had imagined.

After all, Wen Zhong gained fame in the Divine Enthronement battle of Ancient Times, a Grand Preceptor of the Shang Dynasty, with a revered status, and also the direct disciple of the Supreme Celestial Venerable of the Numinous Treasure, the Golden Spirit Holy Mother!

Yet, such a being could not break his Formation.

Could his Formation really be that powerful?

But why would the Jade Emperor appoint a Great Luo Golden Immortal as marshal for this occasion?

Was the celestial Court that weak?

If it were indeed the case, with his current mid-stage Great Luo Golden Immortal cultivation level, couldn’t he actually become a being second only to the Four Imperial Lords?

As for the title Great Sage Equalling Heaven, it clearly came with no real authority.

Sun Wukong was no fool.

It was obvious they were just placating him.

But soon, a chill ran down his spine; was he beginning to look down on the celestial Court, seeking death?

He was just a Great Luo Golden Immortal, after all, while the celestial Court had countless Quasi-Saints, and even avatars of Saints.

And yet, he could actually feel that the celestial Court was weak.

Even his brother, with such a formidable level of cultivation, had warned him to be cautious and careful, let alone himself.

He was truly overestimating himself.

He should learn from his brother not to be overly confident.

Meanwhile, in a temple at the Southern Continent Jambudvipa, a handsome young man sneezed.

Wondering who was thinking of him, glad that he had set up a protective Array on his shell, making it impossible for even Saints to easily divine his whereabouts.

Still, he could often sense them.

If only he weren’t so much weaker than his adversary, he wouldn’t have to be so cautious.

It would be best to find the Golden Cicada soon; maybe he could break through the late stages of Quasi-Saint sooner.

…

At this time, deep in the Mount Sumeru Pure Land of Western Paradise, under the Bodhi Tree, Patriarch Bodhi was still busy making calculations.

But after a while, he couldn’t help but smile wistfully and said, “Enough, enough, how can my disciple, with his not-so-strong strength, be so inscrutable that even I, a Saint’s avatar, cannot divine his whereabouts!”

At that moment, a look of resignation appeared in Patriarch Bodhi’s eyes.

That a dignified Saint’s avatar could not divine the whereabouts of a mere Immortal was truly inconceivable.

Suddenly he began to doubt himself.

One monkey had already left him feeling somewhat helpless, now this least esteemed disciple of his was also proving to be so troublesome.

He was certainly at a loss.
