The silvery light reached beneath the Bodhi Tree.

"Elder brother."

Ao Luan spoke, and Sun Wukong turned his head towards her.

"Ao Luan, the seal on the Blood Lotus will be lifted in less than two years. To defeat it, we must pierce through the void, break through the barrier, unite the Four Realms, and recreate the Source Realm."

"I don't understand."

Ao Luan responded.

"I have found our path."

Sun Wukong said, "We need to find something."

Ao Luan was momentarily stunned, then nodded: "Please command, elder brother."

"Pangu Sky Splitting Axe."

Sun Wukong declared.

Pangu Sky Splitting Axe, Ao Luan had heard of this artifact.

Legend has it that in the era of heaven and earth's creation, the universe was like an egg, and it was Pangu who wielded the great axe, splitting the heavens and the earth, creating the world as it is now.

"Elder brother speaks of the Pangu Sky Splitting Axe from the legends of the Three Realms?"

Ao Luan inquired.

"Exactly that."

Sun Wukong nodded, aware of Ao Luan's confusion, and explained, "The legends of the Three Realms, as well as all star palaces in Chaos, are derived from Hongmeng, Pangu included."

He had learned from totems that the legends across the expanse of Chaos were generally consistent; it was merely a question of how much was inherited.

"So the Pangu Sky Splitting Axe truly exists, only it has been lost."

Sun Wukong pointed at Ao Luan, and in the void, radiance emerged, like the stroke of a brush, forming a vividly lifelike totem in front of Ao Luan.

"Take it."

Sun Wukong directed.

Ao Luan reached out and took the totem, which dissolved upon touch, and information about an axe promptly appeared in Ao Luan's mind, clearer than any conveyed by text.

Ao Luan's mind sharpened, and she deeply bowed to Sun Wukong.

"Elder brother, I know what to do now."

Ao Luan stated.

Sun Wukong nodded, then added, "Have the various Buddhas of the Heavenly Court assist in the search, while I make a trip back to the Three Realms."

"Yes."

Ao Luan nodded.

Sun Wukong then transformed into divine rainbow and departed.

Ao Luan watched his departure.

Coming in haste, leaving in haste, this was her elder brother.

Two days later, in the Three Realms

The Virtue Palace, built upon Immortal Stones, floated in the very center of Wanling City.

Sun Wukong ascended the stairway of the Virtue Palace, flames rising beneath his feet with each step as if he were a deity.

At the top of the stairway, Sun Wukong turned around.

"It has been a long time since I've been back."

He looked upon the endless cityscape in front of him, where buildings of divine grandeur spread to the horizon.

Wanling City, where his dream began and where many invested their lifetimes.

Although it once crumbled like a burst bubble, those who valued it had painstakingly rebuilt it.

The city was almost exactly as it had been.

All the unforgettable and precious things were in this city.

Sun Wukong gazed at Wanling City, his emotions stirring for a long time, before shifting his gaze beneath the Virtue Palace.

Familiar faces filled the streets, people excitedly looking his way.

Hearing of Sun Wukong's return, everyone had come.

Those pairs of eyes—some melancholic, others joyful, some enthusiastic, and some excited—seemed to each have something to say, but everyone remained silent, waiting for Sun Wukong to speak first.

Sun Wukong's gaze swept over the crowd. Jin Chanzi, the Bull Demon King, Gold Star Taibai, Lady Rakshasa, Immortal Master Erlang, and subjects of various appearances all stood below.

Unexpectedly, Immortal Zhenyuan was also present, now somewhat awkwardly watching Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong smiled.

"We have built a world from here."

He suddenly spoke, his voice distant yet clear.

Everyone quietly listened.

It was as if it were two centuries ago, they were first listening to this Great King command them to build this nation.

"Today, we will recreate the world. Once successful, with the Four Realms unified, any being that has achieved immortality will be eternally indestructible."

Sun Wukong asked, "Are you willing to help me once more?"

"Willing!"

Everyone shouted.

The sound shook the Nine Heavens, making blood run hot.

"Very well."

Sun Wukong raised his voice like the rumbling of thunder: "To recreate the world, you must find a treasure for me."

He pointed his right hand towards the sky, and in an instant, the sea of clouds surged like monstrous waves, displaying the form of a giant axe.

As soon as the axe appeared, it enveloped Wanling City, and terrible threats of wind, cloud, and thunder rained down from the sky upon Wanling City.

What was that?

The crowd looked on, their hearts filled with awe.

"This is the Pangu Sky Splitting Axe, a relic left from Hongmeng."

Sun Wukong proclaimed, "We don't have much time; spare no effort in finding it!"

"By your command!"

Upon receiving the order, the crowd roared, like landslides and tsunamis.

"Then go!"

Sun Wukong waved again, and the giant axe in the clouds suddenly split into two, then four, turning into countless totems that streaked down like meteors, entering everyone's body.

Each person received the information of the Pangu Sky Splitting Axe and immediately took flight, transforming into thousands of light rays, flying in all directions.

The beings of the Three Realms were mobilized once more.

And Sun Wukong, after the people had left, turned and walked into the Virtue Palace.

Where the Pangu Sky Splitting Axe was hidden, even he did not know; he had to rely on the actions of those people to further calculate.
