Journey to the West: Starting from Changing Sun Wukong’s fate
Chapter 149 - 149 149 Little Snake Swallows Roc

149: Chapter 149 Little Snake Swallows Roc 149: Chapter 149 Little Snake Swallows Roc Sun Wukong actually wanted to lose.

He had deliberately exposed several flaws already, yet Yang Jian simply wouldn’t seize the opportunity to strike.

Sun Wukong felt helpless and couldn’t figure out what Yang Jian was up to.

Having a chance to settle the battle yet not taking action.

Yang Jian, of course, noticed the flaws Sun Wukong had exposed, but…

Would a warrior of their caliber easily reveal a flaw?

Of course not!

So why would Sun Wukong expose flaws?

They were clearly bait.

He had a wealth of combat experience; how could he fall for such a trick?

At that moment, the Three-pointed Double-edged Blade directly lifted the staff that Sun Wukong had dropped, its sharp edge suddenly intensifying; a heaven-reaching brilliance swept out, slashing toward Sun Wukong once more.

Sun Wukong also showed no fear.

He stepped on mysterious steps and, in the blink of an eye, had already put some distance between himself and the True Lord Yang Jian.

Although it was unscrupulous of Sun Wukong to have captured his Howling Celestial Dog, it must be said that since the Divine Enthronement, battles that were this exhilarating had been rare for him.

In encounters with other foes, it was either those who had cultivated other Divine Skills or those who relied on Magical Treasures.

Battles like this, true sword fights relying on brute strength, were few and far between.

Seeing Sun Wukong withdrawing and escaping, Yang Jian didn’t rush to pursue but instead gave a cold snort.

His figure flashed brilliantly, swelling in the wind.

His original nine-foot frame instantly transformed into a colossal giant clad in Golden Armor, wielding the Three-pointed Double-edged Blade, like a deity capable of Creation of Heaven and Earth.

He then raised his hand, and the three-pointed double-edged blade in his grip slashed down toward Sun Wukong once again.

This was the magic power reaching to the sky and covering the earth.

This Divine Skill was quite fundamental, also one mentioned in the Eight-Nine Mystical Art.

Of course, many Cultivation Techniques within the Three Realms also included this Divine Skill.

Once executed, it wasn’t only the body that became enormous; the strength also surged immensely.

A single move stirred a terrifying authority of heaven and earth, and in an instant, dust flew and rocks scattered, even causing Mount Huaguo to start to shake.

It seemed as if under this tremendous power, it might collapse in an instant.

Sun Wukong, witnessing this, flashed golden light beneath his feet, activated the Escape Skill, and his figure vanished to a thousand miles away in the blink of an eye.

He narrowly avoided that strike.

Although the strike hit empty space, the Three-pointed Double-edged Blade struck directly onto the ground of Mount Huaguo.

Already somewhat damaged, Mount Huaguo collapsed under this strike.

Seventy-two peaks tumbled down in an instant, and the Eastern Sea also stirred up huge waves.

It was as if a tsunami was about to erupt.

Even the island that had fallen from celestial Court earlier was engulfed by these giant waves.

The intense turbulence made even heaven and earth shudder.

However, with the collective efforts of many Orthodox Deities of the celestial Court, it eventually stabilized.

But even so, looking up at the giant Dharma body of Yang Jian above Mount Huaguo, their eyes couldn’t help but be filled with unprecedented shock.

Erlang Shen had become incomparably more powerful than during the Calamity of Measurement for Divine Enthronement.

Yet many of the Orthodox Deities of celestial Court couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

Most of their True Spirits had entered the Investiture of the Gods, their physical bodies destroyed, and their Way of the Immortals non-existent, only able to focus on the godly way, but unable to free themselves from the bonds of the Investiture of the Gods nor increase their Cultivation Level in the slightest.

“Law of Heaven and Earth, eh?”

Sun Wukong, watching Yang Jian relentlessly pursuing him, couldn’t help showing a tinge of competitiveness on his face.

Although his character had changed due to Wang Yang, making him much more cautious, now it was just his incarnation facing the continuously pressing Yang Jian; he couldn’t help feeling a bit competitive.

Moreover, the Law of Heaven and Earth also existed within the Thirty-Six Transformations of celestial Gang.

He didn’t need to worry about exposing his fellow disciple’s secret either.

Instantly, his figure surged to a colossal height of ten thousand feet.

In a moment, he was almost equal to Yang Jian, and he swung out the Peach Tree Wood staff in his hand.

Of course, even so, he still retained the Cultivation Level of a Middle Stage Taiyi Golden Immortal.

“This monkey can actually use the Law of Heaven and Earth too?”

Yang Jian’s eyes narrowed, and the vertical eye between his brows trembled, seemingly about to open.

Not just Yang Jian.

In the Ninth celestial Palace, many Orthodox Deities of the celestial Court observing the battle were also stunned by this scene.

This Law of Heaven and Earth, recorded in many Supernatural Daoist Powers, was also a genuine supernatural technique from the Mystery Teachings, not something just anyone could learn.

Even within the celestial Court, the vast majority of celestial Officials couldn’t do it.

Jade Emperor, watching the battlefield, narrowed his eyes and remained silent.

He then glanced at the Western Direction using the corner of his eye.

Clearly, the Western Direction had concealed something from him, deep within the Western Pure Land, under the Bodhi Tree, two Saints sat facing each other.

When they saw Sun Wukong unleash the magic powers reaching to the sky and covering the earth, both were startled.

Wasn’t the Bodhi Ancestor supposed to teach the simplified version of Daoist Techniques?

The Patriarch Bodhi was somewhat helpless.

Originally, he intended to teach the simplified version, but Sun Wukong’s cultivation speed was very slow.

What could he do?

In order not to delay the progress of the Journey to the West’s Calamity of Measurement, he had no choice but to teach him the complete version.

But they naturally did not know this.

After all, if the incident that had frustrated Sun Wukong was fully disclosed, wouldn’t it make him seem incompetent?

Moreover, after the last incident where even his own disciple went unnoticed, Patriarch Bodhi, infuriated, directly went into seclusion.

Now, even if Amitabha Buddha and Zhunti wanted to ask for details, there was nothing they could do.

Although Patriarch Bodhi was an incarnation, at their level of strength, they each had their own consciousness and could not be influenced by others.

At this time on Mount Huaguo.

Yang Jian and Sun Wukong both deployed the magic powers reaching to the sky and covering the earth, like two towering deities battling fiercely on Mount Huaguo, causing immense destruction to the entire area, to the point that even Mount Huaguo was barely holding on.

Fortunately, Sun Wukong had already asked all the monkeys to leave when he returned to Mount Huaguo; otherwise, many of them would have perished due to the fallout from their battle.

However, since Mount Huaguo was his territory, seeing it being destroyed like this made Sun Wukong quite dejected.

Without hesitating any longer, his huge body suddenly turned into a beam of light, heading directly out of Mount Huaguo.

“Activate the celestial Spider Web Formation!”

Seeing Sun Wukong’s huge body suddenly convert into a beam of light heading towards the outside of Mount Huaguo, Wen Zhong in the celestial army was overjoyed and quickly ordered his subordinates to activate the celestial Spider Web Formation to prevent Sun Wukong from escaping.

These celestial Soldiers and Generals, well-seasoned in battles, immediately summoned their powerful mana upon hearing Wen Zhong’s command and activated this immense celestial Spider Web Formation.

The celestial Spider Web Formation was a major battle formation of the celestial Court with powerful might, capable of trapping even a Great Luo Golden Immortal.

However, just as the formation was about to envelope Sun Wukong, who had turned into a beam of light, it was activated too hastily, letting Sun Wukong rush through it.

Sun Wukong looked back at the many celestial Soldiers and Generals and thought to himself that they were useless.

He had walked right into their trap and still they failed to capture him.

He then transformed into a sparrow and flew off into the distance, disappearing from sight in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this, Wen Zhong couldn’t help but feel annoyed that even with the celestial Spider Web Formation activated, they had still let Sun Wukong escape.

Moreover, Sun Wukong’s speed just now was perhaps several times faster than it had been at the Southern Heaven Gate.

Could it be that the Macaque has broken through?

Yang Jian stood still, his brows furrowing as a gap opened between his eyebrows, revealing a profound eye.

A beam of light from the horizon faintly discerned the escaping sparrow.

Yang Jian laughed heartily and said with a cold snort, “A mere celestial Gang Art, I’ll gladly entertain you!”

He then immediately stopped using the magic powers reaching to the sky and covering the earth, his body turned, and mana light twisted, instantly transforming with a peng’s cry.

He turned into a Golden-Winged Roc, its wings unfurling to tens of thousands of feet wide, and its slight tremor stirred up a massive whirlwind.

“Screech!”

A resounding peng’s cry echoed.

In an instant, Yang Jian as the Golden-Winged Roc, spread its wings, soaring straight up ninety thousand miles like the shifting winds and clouds!

Upon seeing this, Wen Zhong also loudly commanded, pointing towards the sky.

In that instant, the celestial Soldiers above were forced back by tremendous force, still unclear about what had happened, when they saw a streak of golden light whooshing by, a violent wind buffeting them as it passed, like a world-destroying cyclone.

Even the celestial Soldiers and Generals, who had attained the Way of the Immortals, could not withstand it on their own and were blown all over the place.

Li Jing gave Wen Zhong a glance, his eyebrows slightly twitching, as he had not reacted in time, yet Wen Zhong had already seemed to know.

If Wen Zhong had not acted, who knows how many celestial Soldiers and Generals would have been blown to the ends of the earth by Erlang God’s wind gust.

“Indeed worthy of being the Nine Heavens God of Heaven, no wonder he was so beloved back then!”

He couldn’t help but feel a pang of emotion, then his gaze shifted towards the Golden-Winged Roc and the direction it was flying.

Only to see tens of thousands of miles away, the Golden-Winged Roc had already reached there in an instant, its talons tearing through the sky as it swooped down.

It clawed towards a point in the void.

Instantly, space shattered as if it had been ripped open at that moment, and a sparrow fell out from it.

Compared to the sharp talons of the Golden-Winged Roc, this sparrow seemed like a mere ant, apparently about to be torn apart in an instant.

However, the sparrow that Sun Wukong had transformed into seemed still unperturbed.

At the moment it was clutched by the talons, its body shivered, twistingly transforming into a small snake.

In an instant, it violently coiled around the Golden-Winged Roc.

Tightening fiercely, it then opened its mouth, far larger than its small snake body, and directly attempted to swallow the Golden-Winged Roc in front of it.

And now, like a snake swallowing an elephant, it seemed utterly unconcerned with how massive the Golden-Winged Roc before it was.
