Chapter 543 - 41: Laojun Suffers in Silence; Angel Saint King and Heart Moon Fox Daji
Mythical World.
Douluo Palace.
Taishang Laojun used Divine Techniques to watch the battle between the mundane monkey and the King of the One-Horned Rhinoceros.
The King of the One-Horned Rhinoceros is actually his mount, the Cyan Bull.
Last time, his pupils Golden Horn and Silver Horn brought his treasures down to the mortal world, but ended up losing them.
This time,
He took special care.
The King of the One-Horned Rhinoceros wielded a twelve-foot long Steel-Pointed Spear in fierce combat with Sun Wukong.
The Golden Cudgel was raised, glittering like a swift golden snake;
The long spear faced it, shining bright like a dragon leaving the Black Sea.
The little demons in front of the gate beat the drums, setting up formation to boost morale;
These two fought for thirty rounds, with no winner in sight.
The King of the One-Horned Rhinoceros saw that Sun Wukong’s rod techniques were flawless and identical, coming and going without any flaws, and he joyously exclaimed:
"Good monkey! Good monkey! Truly you’re one with the ability to disturb the Celestial Officials!"
The two fought for another twenty rounds or so.
The King of the One-Horned Rhinoceros tapped the ground with the spear tip and ordered the little demons to come together.
Those mischievous monsters, each wielded swords, clubs, and spears, surrounded Sun Wukong.
"Come on! Come on! Just what I wanted!"
Sun Wukong used his Golden Cudgel to fend off attacks from all directions, east and west, but the group of demons refused to retreat.
Sun Wukong grew impatient, tossed his Golden Cudgel into the air, shouted "Change!", and suddenly it transformed into thousands of iron rods, raining down like flying snakes and writhing pythons.
The group of demons, seeing this, scattered in terror, clutching their heads and withdrawing their necks, fleeing into the cavern for their lives.
The King of the One-Horned Rhinoceros sneered, "Monkey, don’t be rude! Watch this!"
He fetched a bright, shining ring from his sleeve and tossed it into the air, shouting "Catch!"
With a swish, the ring retrieved the Golden Cudgel and encircled it.
"Heh heh, I, Old Sun, was waiting for this move of yours!"
At the moment the King of the One-Horned Rhinoceros deployed the Vajra Scepter, Sun Wukong also used a one-time Divine Artifact specially crafted by Zhou Chen — a replica of the Treasure-Dropping Gold Coin.
"Drop!"
Just as the Vajra Scepter was about to retrieve Sun Wukong’s Golden Cudgel, it was struck down by Sun Wukong’s replica Treasure-Dropping Gold Coin.
"How is it possible?"
The King of the One-Horned Rhinoceros was stunned, not expecting Sun Wukong to have such a trick up his sleeve.
He wanted to recall the Vajra Scepter, but it was temporarily sealed by the replica Treasure-Dropping Gold Coin, becoming just as ordinary as any mundane object, unable to be recovered.
Not just the King of the One-Horned Rhinoceros, even Taishang Laojun in Douluo Palace was startled.
He sensed that he had lost contact with the Vajra Scepter.
He immediately used Divine Techniques to rush over.
As soon as Sun Wukong had struck down the Vajra Scepter, he rushed to retrieve it and sent it to Zhou Chen via a chat group as a red packet.
Simultaneously, he picked up the Golden Cudgel and struck at the Cyan Bull.
"Great Sage, hold your hand."
Taishang Laojun arrived just in time to stop Sun Wukong.
The Cyan Bull, upon seeing Taishang Laojun’s arrival, immediately transformed back to its original form, returning to Taishang Laojun’s side.
After all, it had a powerful backer!
Sun Wukong knew he couldn’t kill the Cyan Bull and paid it no mind, as he had already secured the treasure and given it to Zhou Chen.
"Laojun, so this is your cow!"
Sun Wukong questioned.
"This wicked beast took advantage of the sleeping boy who watched over the Immortal Pill, consumed the Seven-Return Fire Pill, slept for seven days, then stole my Vajra Scepter to descend and cause chaos."
Taishang Laojun scrutinized Sun Wukong, saying:
"Great Sage, where have you put my Vajra Scepter and other treasures?"
"What treasures? I didn’t steal your Vajra Scepter, how would I know!"
Sun Wukong firmly denied any wrongdoing.
Taishang Laojun gave Sun Wukong a deep look, finding no trace of his treasures, and had to give up.
He left with the Cyan Bull.
Sun Wukong saved Tang Monk and his companions and continued their journey.
...
Mythical World.
Celestial Court.
"Ding, you have received a red packet from the Monkey King."
A bright, shining ring appeared in Zhou Chen’s hand.
"The Vajra Scepter, the instrument used by Laojun when transforming barbarians, a treasure refined from an early age. No weapon, nor water nor fire, can approach it."
After playing with it for a bit, Zhou Chen sent it to the Red Dust Celestial Ship, integrating it as a unit.
The Vajra Scepter transformed into a world-creating Divine Artifact.
The transformed Vajra Scepter and the previously acquired Palm Leaf Fan returned to Zhou Chen, who played with these two more powerful treasures joyfully.
These two, the Vajra Scepter and the Palm Leaf Fan, were arguably the strongest magical treasures of Taishang Laojun in the Mythical World.
The Palm Leaf Fan had both yin and yang versions.
The item in his hand is the Yang aspect.
Princess Iron Fan has another Palm Leaf Fan in her hand, which is the Yin aspect.
Once Sun Wukong acquires Princess Iron Fan’s Palm Leaf Fan, he will have both the Yin and Yang Palm Leaf Fans, significantly increasing their power.
Thinking of the Palm Leaf Fan, Zhou Chen couldn’t help but recall the famous scene of Sun Wukong borrowing the fan.
Sister-in-law, open your mouth.
I’m inside your belly.
Sister-in-law, I’m coming out!
[Ding, Black Dragon Heaven has sent you a red packet.]
At that moment, Zhou Chen suddenly received a message.
"Looks like Black Dragon has completed it!"
With a thought, Zhou Chen accepted the red packet.
[You have accepted the red packet from Black Dragon Heaven.]
Buzz.
Lights swirled, and four figures appeared in front of Zhou Chen.
The two tall figures on the left looked very similar, but their auras were completely different. One was clad in golden armor, with golden hair fluttering and a pair of golden angel wings behind him.
Angel Saint King.
The other was the opposite, entirely black, with black wings, and was the sister of the Angel Saint King, an Elder General of the Nether Race, Unhearing and Unseeing.
The two on the right were also sisters.
The elder sister, Xinyue Kui.
The younger sister, Heart Moon Fox Daji.
Xinyue Kui had a glamorous aura, while Heart Moon Fox was quiet and beautiful, gentle as water.
As Zhou Chen observed them, the four also observed Zhou Chen.
Unhearing and Unseeing had been forcibly brought from the Nether Race by Black Dragon Heaven and had her powers sealed, her eyes full of hostility as she looked at Zhou Chen.
The Angel Saint King and Xinyue Kui were subordinates of Black Dragon Heaven, the former very loyal, showing indifference without revealing anger or joy.
Xinyue Kui, curious, looked Zhou Chen up and down.
Although Heart Moon Fox was also captured, she had a good temperament, remaining serene and calm, exuding a gentle air that made one want to....
Be very harsh to her.
"Since you’ve arrived here, you must listen to me in all respects."
"First, I’ll send you to the Immortal Transformation Pool for cultivation. The rest will be discussed later!"
With a wave of his hand, Zhou Chen infused the cultivation method and relevant information into their minds and sent them directly to the Immortal Transformation Pool.
"How powerful!"
Xinyue Kui was secretly taken aback. Facing Zhou Chen, she felt an unfathomable depth, even more terrifying than Black Dragon Heaven.
The Angel Saint King, Unhearing and Unseeing, and Heart Moon Fox were equally amazed.
In front of Zhou Chen.
They were as insignificant as ants on the ground.
Feeling the energy from the Immortal Transformation Pool being continuously infused into their bodies, cleansing them, altering their constitutions, and enhancing their skills, they were even more astonished.
But Zhou Chen wasn’t concerned with them now.
He casually sent an Immortal Pill to Black Dragon Heaven.
This Immortal Pill was crafted by him.
Though it wasn’t of high grade, its healing effects were excellent, more than sufficient to save White Dragon from the Wugengji World.
It might even strengthen White Dragon’s power.
Having settled that, Zhou Chen walked into the adjacent room.
Yang Chan, who had long returned from the Treasure Lotus Lamp World, lay unclothed on the bed, her full, voluptuous body exuding boundless allure.
Zhou Chen glanced at the Heaven-Supporting White Jade Pillar still on Yang Chan, feeling a heat in his chest, and stepped forward to take its place.
"Mmm!"
Yang Chan woke up gently, but Zhou Chen blocked her small mouth.
She possessed the divine artifact Treasure Lotus Lamp.
Zhou Chen loved her Treasure Lotus Lamp the most, each time exploring its core, experiencing the power of this divine artifact Treasure Lotus Lamp.
Under Zhou Chen’s development, Yang Chan’s divine artifact Treasure Lotus Lamp showed endless potential.
Each time left Yang Chan astonished, with a sense of learned fulfillment.
...
Wugengji World.
Divine Domain.
[Ding, Master of Wind and Moon has sent you a red packet.]
Black Dragon Heaven eagerly accepted the red packet, watching the Immortal Pill appear in his hand, radiant and splendorous.
As it appeared, myriad phenomena arose, with dragons and phoenixes soaring, and qilins offering auspicious signs.
He took a deep breath, feeling refreshed and delighted, as if about to ascend.
"Excellent Pill!"
Though he had never eaten it nor recognized it, just by smelling its aroma, he knew it was undoubtedly a supremely divine pill.
Looking at the White Dragon quietly sleeping beside him, his eyes filled with excitement.
He sniffed the pill again, ensuring there were no issues, and with resolve, gently pried open White Dragon’s small mouth, feeding the pill in.
