262: Chapter 262 Sun Wukong: I got beaten up by a soldier

Inside the Water Curtain Cave on Flower Fruit Mountain, the Stone Monkey looked at that journey to the west with a trace of confusion on his face.

Should he actually keep this thing or not?

Furthermore, why did he feel that the experiences within it were so strange, as if ordained by fate?

He picked up that copy of the journey to the west, and in an instant, it transformed into specks of Spiritual Qi that merged into his body, eventually disappearing completely.

"The Stone Monkey in the journey to the west... how is it so similar to my own experiences? The Dao of longevity, the methods of cultivation... since that is the case, I should not remain here stagnant, but should go and seek the methods of cultivation."

A trace of determination appeared in the Stone Monkey's eyes. Not long after, he found a raft, drifted across the ocean, and set off to seek the Dao of cultivation.

In the Heavenly Realm, the Old Daoist that Luo Hou had transformed into—no, to be precise, a soldier in the Immortal barracks—also cast his gaze toward the Primordial World.

"It is fortunate that I did not take action. Otherwise, things would have been quite troublesome. Spreading the Dharma and the Dao... the eyes fixed upon That One are truly numerous!"

Luo Hou thought with some depression, his gaze fixed upon the Primordial World.

The powerhouses of the Immortal Dao were far too vigilant; the contingency plan he had constructed using a trace of Limitless power had almost been discovered.

Who could have imagined that the monkey would actually harbor several Divine Thoughts of Saints, as well as a glimmer of the gaze of Heavenly Dao Hongjun?

If any other entity had come here, they would likely have fallen.

After all, with that move just now, the gazes and thoughts of various Saints had manifested, freezing time and thoroughly inspecting the situation on Flower Fruit Mountain, along with any other hidden measures within it.

Only that copy of the journey to the west had not been discovered.

If he had truly gone to spread the methods of the Demonic Path and taught That One how to cultivate, the outcome would likely not have been very good.

That One, Yang Mei, would not allow him to seize the initiative. In the future, when the world underwent transformation, once the initiative was seized, Luo Hou would very likely be able to tower above the numerous powerhouses and step into the level above Hun Yuan Limitless.

That inconceivable, indescribable, and unthinkable Realm.

"The journey to the west has already been given away. What of the future? It can be considered as having planted a seed of the Demonic Path. As for whether or not he will walk this Demonic Path, who can say for sure?"

He cast his gaze toward this world, contemplating inwardly. In any case, everything that needed to be done had already been done. As for whether it would succeed or not?

That would depend on Opportunity and a bit of luck. After all, with so many powerhouses watching, it was not an easy matter for his plan to be truly completed.

He cast his gaze toward the Heavenly Realm and began to enhance his own strength.

Within the current Heavenly Court, the Spiritual Qi was still quite abundant. After all, with many Daluo present, it could be said that the vast majority of the Spiritual Qi of the Primordial World was within the Heavenly Court.

The remainder was in top-tier Grotto-Heaven and Blessed Land, such as Kunlun Mountain or Mount Ling, those Grotto-Heaven and Blessed Land guarded by Daluo or even Saints.

Daluo and Saints transformed Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi for them.

The Heavenly Court was the same; the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi here was extremely abundant, unlike the Four Continents, where the Spiritual Qi in most places made it difficult to even cultivate a True Immortal.

Either they were already occupied by existing entities, or the Spiritual Qi was thin. Without exposing his identity while cultivating within the world, Luo Hou recovering to the Realm of an Immortal in such a short time could already be considered quite good.

The Heavenly Court, however, was different. The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was dense, and with this dense Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi as cover, Luo Hou could also secretly use the power of the Limitless Realm to create Spiritual Qi out of nothing.

He used the thoughts of the Limitless Realm to make this Physical Body recover faster.

He cast his gaze toward the world; once that Stone Monkey returned from his studies, he should be close to recovering to the Daluo Realm.

Even if he had not recovered, it did not matter; it was just a matter of foundation. The Heavenly Court had no shortage of innate spiritual objects. Taking advantage of the time when That One would wreak havoc in the Heavenly Palace to absorb a bit of the Heavenly Court's Origin and power would also allow him to recover to the Daluo Realm.

Once he reached the Daluo Realm, he could absorb Chaos Qi from the Chaos, and then things would become simple.

Time flowed on leisurely. For Innate Sacred Beings, time was extremely worthless. Before long, hundreds of years had passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, Luo Hou had not wasted time; the cultivation of this Physical Body had also improved, and he was already half a step into recovering to the Daluo Realm.

That Stone Monkey had also progressed very quickly. In not many years, he had already become a supreme powerhouse of the Taiyi Realm.

For the current Primordial World, an entity at the Taiyi level could already be considered extremely powerful.

Now that the world was about to fall into the Dharma End, Saints could hardly remain within the world, and the means to forcibly elevate ordinary living beings to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal had become unusable.

As for resistance, the Monkey King had originally not intended to resist, but the journey to the west plan was already set. Who among the Grand Unity Golden Immortal and Saints did not know how to manipulate Karma?

No matter how powerful you were, if you had not yet achieved the Grand Unity Golden Immortal, you were nothing but an ant.

"Old Daoist Qing Xuan, it is said that there is a Stone Monkey in the Lower Realm who treats the Heavenly Court's decrees as nothing. He attacked the Heavenly Court, and many Star Lords went to deal with him, but none could capture him. But is he really that strong? It is said that the Heavenly Court dispatched one hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, and they were elites, right?"

"It is fortunate that we have not reached the half-step Golden Immortal, otherwise we would likely have been sent to capture that demon monkey."

A Heavenly Soldier said to Luo Hou.

Luo Hou, however, revealed a trace of a smile and looked toward the Primordial World.

That monkey had finally made progress. This time, he indeed did not cause trouble at the Dragon Palace or seize the Dinghai Divine Needle. Although he was still captured and taken to the Underworld, he did not cause a scene.

But sometimes, the Grand Unity Golden Immortal were the ones who dictated Karma, not to mention the existence of the Saint level.

As long as they were willing, they could just dictate Karma.

If the Heavenly Court issued a decree suppressing him, ordering him to obey and become a member of the Heavenly Court, and if he did not submit, he would be a rebel—what would he do then?

Suddenly, he felt something. He cast his gaze toward the Heavenly Court.

At this moment, within the Heavenly Court, a Fairy was swaggering toward the Peach Garden.

The Old Daoist Qing Xuan, who Luo Hou had transformed into, did not hesitate. As a Heavenly Soldier—all of whom were demons or other entities that had infiltrated the Heavenly Court, as well as beings within the Heavenly Court who had walked the Demonic Path—he ought to fulfill his duty.

"Wait! Where are you going, Fairy? This direction is not right, is it? The Peach Banquet should still be a long time away."

At this moment, the Fairy before him revealed a trace of killing intent; this was exactly what the Monkey King had transformed into.

He had even split off Incarnations, allowing numerous Incarnations to join the Heavenly Court.

After all, in the previous great battle, although he had neither won nor lost, they had fallen out. He would not let go of the various spiritual objects in the Heavenly Court; he had to taste them first.

The Monkey King looked at the Luo Hou Incarnation before him. Its aura was vast, and it pressed down with a palm, covering boundless space.

"You lowly Heavenly Soldier, if you want to blame someone, blame yourself for interfering with my grand plans."

But the next second, Luo Hou lightly slapped the Monkey King's face, directly slapping him down from the Heavenly Court.

There was confusion and puzzlement on the Monkey King's face.

He had been hit by a low-level soldier of the Heavenly Court? How could this be? But in the next second, he fell into the Primordial World.
