The Tathāgata Must Fail

Chapter 275: I'm Going Back for Breakfast


"Incredible."

Sun Wukong looked around and couldn't help but marvel.

The architecture of this city was peculiar, with countless pavilions extending endlessly as if reflecting each other above and below the ground.

The roads and stairways of the city were complex and intertwined, all built suspended in the air, with no shortage of spiraling and intersecting sections, looking like a tangled mass of ropes, intricate and challenging to unravel at a glance.

Sun Wukong was reminded of the Palm Buddha Country of Buddha.

However, upon closer inspection, it differed from the sanctity and solemnity of Buddha Country, with Immortal Zhenyuan's distinctive aesthetic designs evident everywhere.

Numerous luminous and colorful spiritual objects adorned the buildings and roads, lighting up the entire city in a riot of colors, bright and clear, yet not as blinding as daylight.

Suddenly, the familiar sound of a dragon car's bells rang from afar, and Sun Wukong couldn't help but look up.

A magnificent and splendid dragon car, trailing streamers of light, weaved through the buildings in the sky.

It was indeed a collection of architectural and spiritual wonders.

The audience in the stands was dumbstruck.

"Where is this?"

They were overwhelmed by the splendid spectacle they had never seen before.

"Wanling City."

Someone answered.

This was a replication of Wanling City.

If it was the size of a guild hall, only a small portion of Wanling City could be replicated.

However, Sun Wukong discovered that the originally limited space of the venue had been expanded countless times by Immortal Zhenyuan, almost replicating the entire Wanling City.

"Can the Sleeve Universe also be created with Immortal Dao?"

Sun Wukong watched with interest the spiritual energy coursing over the surface of the city, its simple-seeming trajectories, which, when constructed into a city, becomes massive amounts of information incomprehensible to ordinary people.

Wanling Immortal Path is different from other Immortal Paths in that it is more detailed.

To expand a magnificent and complex city within the limited space of a guild hall requires not only immense control over Wanling Immortal Path but also a mastery of the rules of spatial changes and structure.

It was an extremely complex spell, which Immortal Zhenyuan had to perform alone with meticulous control, with no room for the slightest error.

Only the Spring Palace Master, responsible for the city's construction, water management, and transportation, could build it.

This was the most spectacular spell since the start of the contest.

The audience in the stands was thrilled.

"So impressive!"

"This move is simply too beautiful!"

"It's like another world."

Even the Queen Mother was astounded by the beauty of this city.

"Your Majesty."

She spoke to the Jade Emperor beside her, only to see him frown.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"

The Queen Mother asked.

The Jade Emperor shook his head, saying nothing, just staring at Wanling City.

This wasn't the first time he had seen the scene change in the guild hall, but this time, he noticed that after the change, the rules of the place and other things seemed to have changed, too.

It was like a small world unto itself.

"Could it be..."

A terrifying suspicion welled up in his heart.

"No, it's not possible."

The Jade Emperor dismissed the thought and turned his gaze inside the venue.

After his astonishment, Sun Wukong withdrew his gaze.

"Do you have any other tricks?"

Sun Wukong asked.

Due to the expansion of space, Immortal Zhenyuan was no longer in front of him.

But his triumphant voice still came from a distance.

"There's no need for other tricks."

Immortal Zhenyuan said, "I studied this move for ten years, it's enough to deal with you!"

Sun Wukong released a ball of flame.

The flame burst upon a building, but the structure remained undamaged, with only charred marks.

"Indeed, there are limitations."

Sun Wukong nodded his approval.

Within this space, it seemed that Immortal Zhenyuan had replicated even the specific properties of the buildings.

Suddenly, a buzzing sound grew from a distance, and Sun Wukong raised his head to see a swarm of arrows flying towards him as if they had eyes, like a dark cloud rapidly approaching.

The roads ahead were also overwhelmed by countless beans like waves.

These beans turned into endless scorpions in an instant.

Their stingers gleamed with a ghastly green light.

"Indeed..."

The Jade Emperor clenched his fist tightly.

"The rules have changed as well."

These attacks were the power of the Immortal Dao emanating from the city itself.

Suddenly, a tense and charged atmosphere spread all around.

Sun Wukong was surrounded.

In front of him were Spiritual Objects attacking fiercely.

Sun Wukong turned around.

Without warning, buildings in front of him began collapsing, roads blocked, instantly turning Sun Wukong's position into a dead end!

Now there was no path to heaven above and no door to earth below.

A relentless barrage of arrows closed in on Sun Wukong first.

"Break!"

Sun Wukong waved his hand, and suddenly a gust of wind swept by.

The arrows disintegrated in the wind, turning into Immortal Text characters fluttering in the sky.

Those Immortal Texts were from the Western Continent.

Sun Wukong felt a surge of nostalgia.

"Go!"

He waved his hand again, and in an instant, those characters changed their properties, condensing into countless Immortal Swords.

An endless number of Immortal Swords flickered by his side, flying back along the path they came from.

The immense sea of Immortal Swords emitted a silvery light, like a galaxy.

"Wondrous!"

In the stands, some Taoists couldn't help but express their admiration.

"Turning day to night, spawning soldiers from beans, brandishing swords to form rivers... This competition is truly wondrous!"

They looked on, eager to see something new.

In the next moment, flames spread out from underneath Sun Wukong's feet.

A swarm of flaming scorpions ignited around him, the city illuminated by the flickering flames, and Sun Wukong's released power was so strong that the scorpions couldn't approach within three meters of him.

Sun Wukong's eyes looked forward, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

"Immortal, you have lost."

This voice also sounded from behind Immortal Zhen Yuan.

The Immortal turned around, his face struck with astonishment at the sight of Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong appeared behind him, holding a stone pillar.

"How did you..."

He looked at Sun Wukong in shock.

Sun Wukong didn't give him any time to react, swinging the pillar at him.

"This move looks good..."

The enormous stone pillar, roaring as it collided with Immortal Zhen Yuan's body, "But it's ineffective!"

Immortal Zhen Yuan only managed to guard his face, and in an instant, he was sent flying.

"Bang!"

In the stands, the Jade Emperor slapped his chair, standing up with an ashen face.

"No, impossible!"

How could a mere mortal wield such a huge stone pillar so effortlessly!

Such a weapon, such an attack—

"Imperial Brother."

The Jade Emperor, his face filled with rage, turned his gaze to the arena: "It's you!"

In the arena, Sun Wukong seemed to hear the voice, turning his head to look at the Jade Emperor.

"It's me."

His eyes gave such an answer.

At this point, there was no need to hide anymore.

In the next instant, Sun Wukong swung the stone pillar and leapt into the air, rushing towards where Immortal Zhen Yuan had landed.

Immortal Zhen Yuan, struggling to get up with his body nearly falling apart, finally realized something was wrong.

He must have been foolish to think of using the Wanling Immortal Path to fight Sun Wukong.

"The bell has rung."

Immortal Zhen Yuan said quietly, and suddenly his body turned to dust and disappeared.

Sun Wukong's blow missed its mark, leaving him somewhat stunned.

"I'll go eat breakfast before I continue fighting with you."

These were the last words Immortal Zhen Yuan said to him.

But he never returned.
