The Tathāgata Must Fail

Chapter 259: Giving You the Southern Continent


"Incorporating the created Daoist Skill into one's body is called integration."

At the Immortal Language Academy, a Fox Demon is giving a lecture on stage.

"Everyone's body weight, height, and even race are different, so arbitrarily integrating a Daoist Skill without integration techniques into the body can have terrible consequences..."

The Fox Demon paused here, unable to continue.

"After all, not everyone has a General Guo Shen to use as a test subject."

The little demons in the audience burst into laughter at this.

Sun Wukong nudged his desk mate, a female Bear Demon: "Who used General Guo Shen as a test subject?"

"Miss Daji."

The Bear Demon replied, flattered to be speaking to him.

Sun Wukong had not been at the academy for long, but he was a widely respected top student, and the Bear Demon was delighted to talk to him.

"Miss Daji is the most formidable Daoist Skill creator in Wanling Country."

She informed Wu Kong that the technology of integration had spread from the hands of Daji.

Daji's understanding of Wanling Immortal Path exceeded that of ordinary people, and people even believed at one point that Daji would become the helmsman of Wanling Immortal Path.

But in the end—she devoted all her creativity to the things that interested her.

"The most advanced and mature creation in Wanling Country is music Daoist Skill."

After class, the Bear Demon said to Sun Wukong: "Once this Daoist Skill is put into play, it can affect a group."

Wukong became curious: "Why haven't I seen it?"

"During the bloody Spring Festival five years ago, Miss Daji sang a song."

The Bear Demon answered: "At that time, tens of thousands of people were injured, and Fairy Chang'e felt that music Daoist Skill was too dangerous, so it was no longer allowed in public."

Now the music Daoist Skill in Wanling City is only taught in special courses.

"Miss Daji has also been banned from singing for ten years."

The Bear Demon said regretfully, "We can only listen to her songs in music books now."

Sun Wukong didn't care about this matter.

Overall, the creation of Daoist Skills in Wanling Country is still at a primary stage.

The knowledge threshold for creating Daoist Skills is not low; starting from learning to read, a child requires over a decade of education before they can come into contact with Immortal Text.

Moreover, given the mysterious complexity of Daoist Skills, the Daoist Skills created by the demons are basically trivial in nature.

The most common experience in Wanling City is the external deployment of Daoist Skills, mainly elemental ones.

People like Sun Wukong, who have mastered the technology of integration, are less than a thousand in the population of Wanling Country, which counts in the tens of millions.

The Bear Demon actively invited Sun Wukong to go to Miao Yin Square to watch a play.

"The Love of Foxes?"

Sun Wukong had no interest in plays, but was curious about the title: "What's the story about?"

"A love story between two foxes and two immortals."

The Bear Demon said: "It is a best-selling story written by Fairy Chang'e, do you want to see it?"

"No thanks."

Sun Wukong shook his head.

He was somewhat surprised that Fairy Chang'e had started writing stories.

Sun Wukong parted with the Bear Demon and was about to return to the dormitory when he saw the fountain area crowded with students.

Curious, Sun Wukong moved closer only to discover that it was Daji sitting by the fountain, with a pen in hand, writing something on paper.

"What is she doing?"

He asked.

"Drawing."

The Wolf Demon in front glanced back at him: "Miss Daji has recently taken up drawing."

"Oh."

Sun Wukong's gaze fell on the object Daji was depicting: "Isn't that Immortal Zhen Yuan?"

"Yes."

"Why is the fairy drawing him?"

The other students were also curious as to how these two came together.

They watched for a while, and Daji's drawing was completed.

"Done."

She stood up and unfolded the drawing, and suddenly countless silver lights flew out, enveloping Immortal Zhen Yuan.

"Enchanting."

The students immediately understood.

Enchanting is a Daoist Skill in creation, which can endow an object with spirit, or power, or an outer glow.

"Immortal, what do you think?"

Daji stood up and asked.

Immortal raised his sleeves and saw the Immortal Light flickering on his body.

"Acceptable." Immortal Zhen Yuan nodded: "How long can it last?"

"Take this painting with you."

Daji handed the painting to Immortal Zhen Yuan: "The effects of the painting can last two months."

"That's enough."

The Immortal looked satisfied: "For your next exhibition, I'll provide the venue for free."

He was pleased and left briskly with a swish of his long sleeves.

The students looked on enviously at the brilliantly shining Immortal Zhen Yuan.

"The Immortal is so stylish!"

He was still the same as ever...

Wukong thought to himself, feeling somewhat happy.

The Daoist creation in Wanling Country was colorful; he could not afford to lose to them.

Day by day, Wukong absorbed every bit of new creation that he had not known for the past twenty years at the academy.

He also generously imparted his wisdom to others.

Because of this, he received widespread respect from the fellow students.

Half a year later, classmates began to choose their Daoist Skill specialization.

The Bear Demon wanted to study medical specialization offered by the Water Moon Fairy and came to ask Wukong: "What will you do?"

"Um..."

Wukong put down the book in his hand: "Maybe it's not up to me to choose."

He had almost completely absorbed all the new things.

A few days later, the Immortal Official from the Wanling Hall took him to Wanling Hall.

Besides him, thirty other youngsters were brought here, all unclear about what had happened.

Wukong met Ao Luan there.

Compared to his dim memory, Ao Luan now had a frosty face and a much stranger temperament.

"Welcome."

Ao Luan said coldly: "You are the most outstanding children of Wanling Country; I invite you to participate in the Wanling Creation research."

"Wanling Creation."

The youngsters were taken aback.

As Wukong thought, indeed.

Wanling Creation is the supreme Daoist creation that can conjure objects out of thin air, and even now, it only exists in experiments.

But he knew how to create; before his long slumber, he created a library, and that was Wanling Creation.

Creating with the power of a Heavenly Venerate was one thing; creating as a mortal would be quite troublesome.

The youngsters joyfully accepted the job.

They were not the only researchers; there was a team of hundreds led by Lady Rakshasa at Wanling Hall.

This was the elite of Wanling Country, and Wukong quickly immersed himself in it.

He wasted little time securing a key position in the team.

"Is this guy a monster?"

All the older members were surprised by Wukong's talent.

After his arrival, the research of Wanling Creation suddenly sped up tremendously.

A month later, (someone) entered the room quietly and serenely.

"Fairy, that Wu Xing really lived up to expectations."

They bowed and said: "Lady Rakshasa said that we could create that thing in another six months."

"Good."

In the room, Ao Luan gazed at the slumbering figure.

"I will do it, elder brother."

She caressed Wukong's face: "I will definitely give the Southern Continent to you."

Dragon Girl's will, deep in her heart, was firmer than anyone else's.
