Taiyi Dao Fruit

Chapter 148: Wukong Meets the Awakened


"Taking advantage and trying to run away!"

By the time Sun Wukong recovered, Jiang Li had already run off without a trace. He looked at the sky, so angry that he struck the mountains beneath him with his staff, causing them to crack, and fire seemed to blaze from his eyes.

"The young people today truly have no sense of martial virtue, taking advantage and then running away. Don't let old Sun meet you again!"

As he spoke, the Jingu Bang struck the ground repeatedly, lowering the mountains by three feet.

However, when his anger passed, the monkey suddenly sighed softly, "Even you are dead..."

The supernatural powers on Jiang Li's body, how could Sun Wukong not see where they came from? They were clearly the Dao Fruit of Yang Jian.

The noble Qingyuan Miaodao True Monarch, Erlang Saint True Monarch, ultimately couldn't survive that final calamity, leaving only the Dao Fruit to still circulate in the world.

And judging from the recent confrontation, that young one's Mental State, Daoist, and strength were all extraordinary. Never mind that Yang Jian isn't like him with a chance to live again, even if he had, he couldn't become the dominant force in Jiang Li's body, only becoming a part of it.

Thinking of this, the monkey's nature of Sun Wukong also felt a bit lonely.

He sighed again, carrying the Jingu Bang on his shoulder, just about to make a move when his gaze shifted slightly, capturing two rapidly approaching rays of Buddha Light.

Weituo Bodhisattva and Guangli Bodhisattva dashed through the air, landing not far ahead, and greeted Sun Wukong in unison, "Greetings, Great Sage."

"Two more..."

Sun Wukong's Wisdom Eye gleamed like torches, noticing familiar traces on their bodies, and his heart grew even lonelier. However, he's certainly not an ordinary being; even if he appears deeply monkey-like, to say that he lost his Mental State because of this would be to underestimate him too much.

Currently, this body doesn't just contain the Dao Fruit of the Great Sage Equalling Heaven, but also the Dao Fruit of Sun Xingzhe.

The Great Sage Equalling Heaven's Dao Fruit within the Jingu Bang fused first, and then Sun Xingzhe's Dao Fruit has always been carried by the Golden Hoop, worn on Wuzhiqi's head, considered a semi-fusion. Wuzhiqi's three life-saving hairs are actually brought by Sun Xingzhe's Dao Fruit.

The more he used the life-saving hairs, the more deeply he fused with Sun Xingzhe's Dao Fruit, and as his strength increased, he was progressively dominated by the Dao Fruit.

Now, Sun Xingzhe's Dao Fruit has also merged with this body. So standing here is not only the Great Sage Equalling Heaven but also the Sun Xingzhe who fetched the scriptures. While Sun Xingzhe's strength is indeed not as great as the Great Sage's, his Mental State, having calmed the monkey mind, is even superior.

The distractions in Sun Wukong's heart passed in a flash, leaving no trace within him.

He carried the Jingu Bang, circled around Weituo and Guangli, the two Bodhisattvas, suddenly snorted with a laugh, and said, "Half-baked. Having the Bodhisattva Fruit Position but lacking the Bodhisattva Daoist practice, two half-baked ones."

Weituo and Guangli felt somewhat embarrassed upon hearing this.

Sun Wukong, relentlessness with his words, continued his judgment, "You at least are a bit better, your Daoist practice is not far off."

He was referring to Weituo Bodhisattva.

Then he turned to Guangli Bodhisattva, mocking, "You're much worse, calling you half-baked is actually flattering you."

"For half-baked ones like you, even though now my strength is much less than before, I could still fight ten of you."

Saying this, the monkey shook his head repeatedly, a look of disdain like trying to carve on rotten wood, yet these two dared not refute, even feeling a sense of reverence, akin to their attitude towards an Awakened being.

After judging the two half-baked ones, Sun Wukong looked at them with interest, seemingly waiting for their rebuttal. However, the two were silent for a long time, making him feel rather bored.

'Yet this reluctant to argue demeanor still quite resembles... Alas, old Sun is indeed aging, already beginning to reminisce.'

Sun Wukong sneered, then said, "But the one who fashioned this body, now there's someone capable. Speak, where is he? Seeing as you both came prepared, surely you already know that old Sun is about to awaken, but with your Daoist practice, you couldn't foresee this far."

Once more disdained.

But admittedly, what Sun Wukong said was precisely accurate, not a bit wrong.

Don't be misled by the monkey's appearance, his mind is sharper than a human's. Just newly awakened, yet he knows the situation as if he's a Prophet, not at all unfamiliar with the current world.

"This is the doing of our Buddha Country's Chief."

Weituo Bodhisattva suppressed the reverence in his heart, replied neither humbly nor arrogantly, "The Buddha Country inherits the Buddhist Daoist inheritance, passing it down ever since the End of Dharma. The current Chief, by the name Zhen Ru, is the greatest achiever since the founding of the Buddha Country. The Chief is also waiting for the Great Sage, so please follow us two humble monks."

"No need." Sun Wukong waved his hand.

He shook his head, and four ears popped out on either side of his head alongside the original ones, his eyes flashing with golden light, bearing a penetrating sharpness.

"Little monk is not honest, deliberately mentioning the name for your Chief to take notice. Never forgetting, must always reflect, who would've thought the world today still has such individuals."

Weituo Bodhisattva was instantly alarmed in his heart.

He had spoken the Awakened's name, hoping to draw the Awakened's attention and bring down Spiritual Sense, yet just a few words let the other see through the Awakened's Realm in terms of Cause and Effect.

To this, Sun Wukong merely chuckled lightly, saying, "Old Sun hasn't recovered the Buddha Fruit Position yet, but my insight hasn't been lost. Stop showing off small tricks. You needn't lead the way, old Sun will go meet him directly."

Saying this, he somersaulted, an auspicious cloud forming beneath his feet, whirling away towards the west, clearly certain of the Awakened's whereabouts.
