Chapter 494: Chapter 488: Three-Headed Six-Armed Divine Abilities

Awakening past life memories and breaking through the Mystery of the Womb can be done anytime, anywhere.

This was what the Ghost Belly Cat Demon King had said.

But after some consideration, Du Youqian decided to return to the Endless Desert Sea before undertaking the task.

’He’d feel more secure on his own territory.’

So, after bidding farewell to Wu Ai’s parents in this life, Du Youqian led the group and flew straight to the Endless Desert Sea.

They made no stops along the way, except to resupply.

Upon reaching the Endless Desert Sea, however, he didn’t return to the Four Principles Sect. Instead, he found an Oasis.

Du Youqian rented a small cave abode, meticulously set up an Array, and then had the Ghost Belly Cat Demon King begin its work.

Each of them had a different attitude toward having their past life memories awakened.

Lin Sha was extremely curious, eager to give it a try.

Fang Hua was apathetic, neither resisting nor volunteering.

Luo Jinyu remained impassive, but was inwardly anxious, worried that Du Youqian would use the opportunity to implant memories that weren’t his and turn him into someone else—and his fear wasn’t unfounded. A Nascent Soul Master could truly do as they pleased with a Qi Cultivation Cultivator.

Wu Ai was somewhat wary and strongly resisted recalling her past life—not because she feared Du Youqian would tamper with her, but simply because she wanted to live wholeheartedly in the present.

As for Li Fei, she hung on Du Youqian’s every word. No matter what he said, she would agree with a blush, as if her IQ plummeted into the negatives the moment she was in front of him.

Of course, Du Youqian had no intention of respecting their individual opinions. ’A bunch of angsty teenagers... what the hell do they know?’

’All they have to do is accept the arrangements obediently.’

’They’re in no position to bargain.’

And so, Lin Sha was the first to undergo the awakening.

The process of awakening past life memories would take five to seven days.

No ritual was necessary; the Ghost Belly Cat Demon King was accomplishing this with its own Innate Divine Abilities.

The process was quite draining, however, consuming one Spiritual Diamond and other precious materials each day.

Du Youqian said he would cover all the material costs and that there was no need to be frugal. The most important thing was that the awakening process went without a hitch.

The Ghost Belly Cat Demon King’s only reply was a cold one: "Do you know what Innate Divine Abilities are?"

Du Youqian was left speechless.

Inside the quiet chamber, the Ghost Belly Cat Demon King was hard at work, attempting to awaken Lin Sha’s past life memories.

Outside the chamber, Du Youqian appeared calm, pouring and drinking wine by himself, but inwardly, his heart was in turmoil.

He had lived for over a thousand years; one could say he had experienced everything.

But even now, he couldn’t help but feel anxious about the outcome.

He worried the awakening would go wrong, worried that Lin Sha’s memories wouldn’t be fully restored, worried...

In short, he was consumed by all sorts of worries.

Time marched on, indifferent to the will of man.

"SQUEAK, SQUEAK!" The Little Monkey ran over, gesticulating wildly with its hands and feet.

Everyone else thought Du Youqian was unperturbed.

Only the Little Monkey could sense his anxiety and concern.

"SQUEAK SQUEAK SQUEAK, SQUEAK SQUEAK!"

Let’s go fight. We haven’t fought in a long time!

Du Youqian found it amusing. "You and me?"

"SQUEAK!"

"I don’t want to fight. I’m not in the mood."

"SQUEAK SQUEAK SQUEAK!"

You’re not scared of me, are you?

Du Youqian thought for a moment.

’It’s been a while since Little Wukong advanced to Tier Four,’ he thought. ’I don’t have a good grasp of its current strength.’

’If we’re going to coordinate well in the future, we really do need to spar a bit.’

"Alright, let’s do it! I’m gonna beat the crap out of you!"

"SQUEAK SQUEAK SQUEAK SQUEAK!" Little Wukong protested.

"Haha, come and get me if you think you can." Du Youqian laughed, leading Little Wukong out of the Oasis and finding an empty expanse in the Endless Desert Sea.

All around them was nothing but the relentless yellow sand and the various small creatures that struggled to survive in the desert.

Little Wukong’s body began to swell, and soon he had become a hundred-foot-tall giant ape. The tiger-pelt Dharma Robe he wore was stretched taut, groaning as if in pain.

Little Wukong awkwardly removed the Dharma Robe, lest he actually burst the Tier Four garment.

Then, it provocatively beckoned to Du Youqian with a finger before proudly flexing its muscles.

Du Youqian chuckled and shook his head, summoning his own Dharma Aspect. It had a human face upon a serpent’s body, its pair of vertical eyes closed. The surroundings instantly darkened, as if day had turned to night.

"SQUEAK SQUEAK SQUEAK SQUEAK! SQUEAK SQUEAK SQUEAK!"

You’d better be smart and give up now, or these clay-pot-sized fists of mine will make you suffer!

Du Youqian chuckled. "First, you have to actually hit me."

Then, he unleashed the Divine Ability he had recently comprehended.

Little Wukong raised its fist, but just as it was about to strike, a look of confusion crossed its face.

’Where did he go?’

’He was so big, where in the world could he have gone?’

Of course, Du Youqian was standing right there in front of Little Wukong. It wasn’t as if the monkey had gone blind.

But whether they were Human Race Cultivators or from the Demon Race, upon reaching a certain Realm, they no longer relied on their eyes to pinpoint an opponent’s location.

What one hears can be an illusion.

What one sees may not be the truth.

In the Cultivation Realm, there were far too many spells, Secret Techniques, and Divine Abilities designed to deceive an opponent’s senses.

Therefore, Human Race Cultivators from the Foundation Establishment Middle to Late Stage, and Demons from Tier Three after forming their Demon Core, would use their Divine Sense to track opponents in battle.

And right now, although Little Wukong could see Du Youqian standing right there, its Divine Sense couldn’t lock onto his position!

It wasn’t that it couldn’t perceive Du Youqian at all. Rather, within its Divine Sense, Du Youqian’s position was constantly shifting—and not in a smooth, predictable pattern.

Instead, the movement was completely erratic and without any pattern!

Little Wukong didn’t rush to attack. It figured that such constant Instant Teleportation must be incredibly draining and refused to believe that Du Youqian could maintain it for long.

Du Youqian smiled, in no rush to attack either.

’This Divine Ability of mine... it really doesn’t drain much energy at all...’

The time it takes to drink a cup of tea passed.

The time it takes for an incense stick to burn passed.

Half an hour passed.

Little Wukong knew its plan had failed.

There was simply no way to fight.

It couldn’t even lock onto Du Youqian’s position. How the hell was it supposed to fight?!

Du Youqian chuckled. "Alright, I’ll spar with you seriously now. I won’t use this Divine Ability anymore."

He wasn’t trying to win, anyway. The point was for him and Little Wukong to grow more familiar with each other through sparring to facilitate better coordination in the future.

That little display just now was more than enough.

’Besides, there’s not much point in showing off in front of a monkey.’

’This Divine Ability is powerful and low-cost. I just comprehended it too late.’

’If I had grasped it sooner, I could have easily turned the tables and killed Ye Rui and Chen Hongbo when they ambushed me.’

Once Du Youqian deactivated his Divine Ability, Little Wukong immediately grew excited.

It too unleashed its newly comprehended Three-Headed Six-Armed Divine Abilities. Spinning like a pinwheel, its six arms blurred like wagon wheels as it charged Du Youqian.

Du Youqian didn’t use Jinhuan or his powerful Sword Intent to bully Little Wukong. After all, the monkey had seen his Swordsmanship often and was very familiar with it.

Du Youqian took out the Tier Five Jade Ruler. He had only recently erased the Seal left inside by True Monarch Zhaoxiang Guangde and placed several layers of his own Restrictions within it, allowing him to barely activate it.

The Jade Ruler flew toward Little Wukong, precisely smacking each of the monkey’s arms once.

Little Wukong shrieked and retreated hastily.

It could naturally tell that Du Youqian had held back. In a real battle, each of its arms would likely have been severely injured.

’A Tier Five Treasure really hurts a monkey!’

Du Youqian did not press his advantage, instead standing in place and pondering something.

Little Wukong ceased its movements so as not to interrupt Du Youqian’s train of thought.

After a moment, Du Youqian asked, "Little Wukong, when you use Three Heads and Six Arms, can each of your arms control a Treasure?"

Little Wukong was stunned. After a long pause, it squeaked to indicate that it might be possible, but it didn’t know since it had never tried.

The one thing Du Youqian had in abundance right now was Tier Four Treasures.

He had no use for most of them.

So, he took out all his Tier Four Treasures and let Little Wukong take its pick.

Little Wukong didn’t choose the best or the flashiest. It only chose the hard ones, the ones good for bashing things.

It quickly picked out six Tier Four Treasures. WHOOSH. They were all absorbed into its body.

WHOOSH. They all flew out again.

It played gleefully, making them WHOOSH in and WHOOSH out.

Du Youqian stopped it. "Come on, let’s fight again!"

With six Treasures in hand, Little Wukong was, as expected, like a tiger that had grown wings.

This was the proper way to use the Three-Headed Six-Armed Divine Abilities—not just waving six arms around like some invincible whirlwind, but having each arm control a separate Treasure!
