At this time, another Taoist approached.
"This is not a place for you."
Sun Wukong asked them, "What relation does this Galuo have to you, and why come to rescue him?"
He was puzzled. Given the grand commotion of sealing Galuo and the palm falling from the sky, how could these mortals still have the courage to come rescue Galuo?
"Galuo is a disciple of the White Robed Venerate, a savior."
The Taoists said, "He can save this Star Palace."
Sun Wukong then understood that Galuo had already set his plans in this Star Palace.
He shook his head, immobilized the Taoists, and with a wave of Immortal Wind, sent them down the mountain.
Afterward, Sun Wukong drew a circle below the mountain, encompassing the Five Finger Peaks within it, to prevent any cultivators from approaching the seal on the mountain.
Having done all this, Sun Wukong turned and strode back to Wushan.
"Master."
The maid saw his return and couldn't help being overjoyed, "Have you truly succeeded in your cultivation?"
"Not yet proficient."
Sun Wukong replied.
He looked towards the sky, where thunder and lightning flashed, dense clouds rolled, and fire intertwined in a spectacular yet terrifying display.
The battle between Immortal Zhen Yuan and the monk was still ongoing.
Compared to before, the physique of Immortal Zhen Yuan had become more formidable.
He glowed all over, battling vigorously with his fists – each punch through the dense clouds triggered a series of thunder.
"He's concocted some new Immortal Law."
Sun Wukong marveled at Immortal Zhen Yuan's rapid progression.
"Master."
The maid suddenly called out to Sun Wukong again.
Sun Wukong looked at her, but she hesitated to speak.
"Speak, what is it?"
Sun Wukong asked.
"The Pagoda in the monk's hand, it's my friend."
The maid said, "It was originally from the Heavenly Emperor's side, the Demon Suppressing Tower, but must have been stolen by the White Robed Venerate. Can you help me rescue it?"
"Sure."
Sun Wukong was surprised but still nodded in agreement.
He looked at the sky again, where countless devils transformed into sharp blades, encircling Immortal Zhen Yuan from all directions and screeching towards him.
Left with no choice, Immortal Zhen Yuan occasionally had to wield his horsetail whisk.
Each swing of the horsetail whisk struck the dense crowd of devils, repelling them.
These devils didn't harm Immortal Zhen Yuan, but greatly interfered with his battle.
"Master, that person wants to use the Demon Suppressing Tower against you, its power hasn't been fully unleashed yet."
The maid reminded Sun Wukong, "It's better we rescue it now."
Sun Wukong nodded.
Rescuing the Demon Suppressing Tower allowed Immortal Zhen Yuan to fight more freely.
This is not a hindrance, the Immortal won't be angry.
Sun Wukong made his decision, waved towards the sky, a tremendous suction force emanated, and a black object appeared in his palm.
"Eh?"
Sun Wukong was puzzled; what he held was not the Pagoda but a tower-shaped wood carving.
"A decoy?"
With a thought, he reached out again, a golden vortex appeared, sucking upwards, immediately the dense clouds tumbled, and a layer descended into his palm.
"What Spell is this!"
Both the monk in the sky and Immortal Zhen Yuan stopped their battle to resist this deadly suction force.
But while they resisted, neither the horsetail whisk nor the Pagoda could withstand it, both being drawn into Sun Wukong's hand.
"How could this happen."
The monk became panicked.
"Junior brother always loves to meddle!"
Immortal Zhen Yuan, once the wind ceased, relaxed his hands and feet, "Neither you have a Magic Artifact, nor do I, perfect."
His fist, accompanied by lightning, dazzlingly smashed towards the monk.
With a "boom", the monk was struck and sent flying.
On the ground, Sun Wukong had already subdued the Pagoda.
However, the Pagoda seemed unwilling to accept defeat, trembling violently in his hand, attempting to break free.
"Demon Suppressing Tower, long time no see."
The young girl happily said: "Do you recognize me?"
"That voice... you are the sister from the Earth Mother Palace."
Upon hearing the young girl's voice, the Pagoda was stunned and slowly ceased its struggle.
"How come you are with these outsiders?"
The Pagoda asked.
"They are not outsiders."
The young girl immediately responded: "They are invited by Nan Ming Heavenly Venerate to save the Brahma Void Heavenly Court."
She introduced Sun Wukong to the Pagoda, her new master, the new War God of the Brahma Void Heavenly Court, the future Heavenly Emperor.
Upon hearing this, the Pagoda couldn't help but get angry.
"How can you recognize an outsider as master!"
The Pagoda was extremely furious: "He can't possibly be the Heavenly Emperor, the Heavenly Emperor Jade Seal is in the hands of the White Robed Venerate, he is our Heavenly Emperor!"
"I don't like the White Robed Venerate."
The young girl was somewhat displeased, saying, "My master will eventually defeat him and take back the Jade Seal!"
"That's impossible."
The Pagoda scoffed: "You haven't seen the White Robed Venerate, he has vast Divine Skills, you can't defeat him!"
"I will defeat him."
Sun Wukong interjected, saying: "Can you stand on our side?"
The Pagoda didn't answer.
"In that case..."
Sun Wukong handed the Pagoda to the young girl: "Keep an eye on it, just don't let it cause trouble."
As the young girl was about to nod, the Pagoda suddenly erupted in bright light, flew out of her hands, and pressed down towards Sun Wukong from above.
"Stop!"
The young girl was terrified.
But the Pagoda, undeterred, extended thousands of rays of light, trying to absorb Sun Wukong.
"Arrogant!"
Sun Wukong opened his hand wide, casually waved, and caught the Pagoda in his palm.
"Why harm me?"
He asked.
"The White Robed Venerate is the true Brahma Void Heavenly Emperor, only he can save the Heavenly Court."
The Pagoda answered: "You are his enemies, hence you are my enemies too."
The young girl looked at it in shock: "Do you really take the White Robed Venerate as your master, do you know what he has done?"
"Of course I know."
The Pagoda said: "I have always accompanied the Venerate, watching him establish various Pure Lands."
"If you know, then why still support him?"
The young girl was deeply shocked: "You weren't like this before!"
"That's because I witnessed the destruction of the Heavenly Court."
The Pagoda's voice had a hint of cold indifference.
"No one can defeat the Venerate, sister."
It said: "You haven't seen what I've seen, if you understood the White Robed Venerate, you would know he is right."
In its view, the young girl was still dwelling in the past of the Brahma Void Heavenly Court.
But it chose the future.
"The Pure Lands of the White Robed Venerate, where no one is jealous, no one takes unfair advantage, no one is boastful, no one is deceitful, no one compares, and no one feels disgusting—everywhere there are smiles, everywhere there are songs, perfect beyond imagination!"
The Pagoda spoke enticingly: "Such a world can only be created by the White Robed Venerate. Sister, you and your master just need to let go of your obsessions and can join it too."
"Sorry."
Sun Wukong said coldly: "I have already seen such a world."
