The world of demon children, a small island near the East China Sea.

I saw a golden figure suddenly rushing into the sky, somersaulting several times in a row, and riding on the clouds.

Looking closely, it was actually a monkey wearing a loose Taoist robe. He held an iron stick in his hand and kept waving it at the sea. The sea of ​​clouds was rolling and the sound of huge waves exploding could be heard continuously.

Two and a half minutes later, the surface of the sea was covered with fish and shrimps with their bellies turned upside down. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the monkey quickly caught several large fish and flew down.

On the coast, Sun Wukong, who had transformed into a Bodhi Taoist priest, stroked his beard with a look of satisfaction on his face.

Although the stone monkey's current magical power cannot be compared with his own, it is already considered to be extremely powerful in this world. In just half a month, his strength has become comparable to that of immortals, and he is particularly good at fighting.

"Teacher, eat fish, eat fish."

The stone monkey hurried over and looked at Sun Wukong with excitement.

For some reason, the stone monkey always felt very close to Sun Wukong when looking at him. This was not just the friendship between master and disciple, but an indescribable feeling, which was wonderful.

"Eat, disciple. I'm not hungry." said Sun Wukong.

"Okay, teacher."

The stone monkey smiled happily, pierced the big fish and lobster with an iron rod, and then waved his hand and started roasting them with a flame.

Although Master’s peaches and nectar are delicious, you’ll get sick of them if you eat too much. On the contrary, these worldly delicacies are very tasty.

After Wukong's training, the stone monkey can now eat worldly things without polluting his innate energy, nor will it affect his innate magical power, the golden pupil, which can break through illusions. It can be said that he has preserved his birth foundation and has unlimited potential.

"Master, everything in the world has a name. I jumped out of a stone and was born and raised by nature. Now that I have entered this world, shouldn't I have a name?" said the stone monkey while grilling seafood.

Sun Wukong heard this, nodded and said:
"Disciple, you are right. Although a name is just a title and not important, it is also the proof of our existence in a sense and is very meaningful. Disciple, what kind of name do you want to take?"

The stone monkey thought for a moment, scratched his head, and said with a smile:
"It all depends on what the master names me. I think anything is fine."

Sun Wukong looked thoughtful, naming was indeed something that could not be taken lightly. He had forgotten that this was himself in another world, and he couldn't always be called the stone monkey.

But if I name him Sun Wukong, it would be a bit weird, because isn't that my own name?

Since the fate of the stone monkey here has changed, there is actually no need to use the original name.

But naming was not his strong point, and thinking of the scene when he became a disciple, he said:
"Take two steps and see, disciple."

The stone monkey had no doubt about it, so he stood up, tiptoed a few steps, and jumped up and down.

Sun Wukong himself felt very happy when he saw it, and said:
"My disciple, I see that you walk like a monkey, so why not give you the surname Sun?"

"Sun!"

A look of shock flashed in the stone monkey's eyes and his body shook.

This grandson was exactly what he wanted. It seemed like it was fate that he was meant to be like this. He couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

The stone monkey roared anxiously, his eyes full of eagerness, and said:
"Now that you have a surname, Master, do you have a name?"

"Disciple, what do you think of Aotian?" Sun Wukong thought for a while, and remembered the online novel shared by Feng Baobao that he had read when he was bored. This name appeared very frequently, and he would definitely be the protagonist when he appeared there. He was invincible all the way and had great luck.

"Aotian? Aotian? Good, good, good, good! Good, good, good, good!"

The stone monkey thought about the name carefully and found it to be very extraordinary. It had a sense of towering above the heavens, and was full of arrogance and unparalleled spirit. He was so happy that he kept spinning on the spot.

"Just call me Sun Aotian!! Haha!" The stone monkey liked this name very much. After all, it was given by his master. Moreover, he had also learned a lot of human cultural knowledge during this period. As the saying goes, "Once a teacher, always a father", he has gradually understood this truth.

After being delighted, the stone monkey said:
"Master, according to your teachings, I am considered a member of the Xuanmen sect. All Xuanmen monks have Taoist names. Now that I already have a surname and a given name, can I take another Taoist name?"

After hearing this, Sun Wukong couldn't help scratching his head, and then he thought for a moment and said, "If I'm going to call myself a Taoist, I'll call myself Wukong."

Sun Wukong was too lazy to think about anything else. This name originally belonged to him. If he really changed it completely, it would still seem a bit wrong. So he changed his name to a Taoist name. It didn't matter anyway.

The stone monkey had a strong desire for knowledge. When he heard the word "Wukong", his brain was shocked. He felt that this Taoist name was extraordinary, so he asked: "Master, what does Wukong mean?"

Sun Wukong stroked his beard and stood, remembering what his master had said, "When the universe was first created, there was no nature. To break through the stubbornness, Wukong is needed."

"Master, what is Wuxing and what is Wukong?" the stone monkey asked again.

At this time, Sun Wukong could somewhat understand Patriarch Bodhi's feelings back then, but Patriarch Bodhi had nothing to say to him. He was a good master who always answered his questions and was very tolerant.

Now that he had just become a teacher, Sun Wukong felt that he should carry forward his teacher's excellent qualities, so he said:
"The ancients said that human nature is good at birth. The so-called asexuality is actually an extremely pure innate state, without desire or demand, just like you were in the stone womb. Of course, there is no distinction between good and evil, just like a blank slate, which can be called chaos.

Zhiwu Wukong is not only your name, but also a state of spiritual practice. Between heaven and earth, among gods, demons, and Buddhas, practitioners must get rid of the two attachments of self and dharma and break through delusion.

As the saying goes, "Everything is empty without self-nature", so Wukong is a higher form, and the emptiness in it is not nothingness. "

The stone monkey was fascinated by what he heard. Although he felt that his strength was increasing very quickly, with a big change every day, the increase in strength and magic power made his heart feel more and more empty. He didn't know why and didn't know what to do.

Now, after hearing what the master said, he seemed to have grasped the key, but then he ran away again. He was just a little bit away from enlightenment.

After thinking it over carefully, he finally understood that although his power was strong, he lacked foundation and the support of knowledge and Tao.

The master once said that he was gifted and was born with immortal powers. The starting line was the finish line for most cultivators, so everything went smoothly for him. Therefore, in a sense, he lacked worldly experience and his own cognition, because since he was born, he had never seen the world by himself and did not understand what the world really looked like.

The stone monkey immediately asked anxiously: "Master, how can I reach the state of Wukong you mentioned?"

Sun Wukong sighed, thinking of his past, and said:
“Everything in the world is ever-changing. Don’t let your attachment to external things or life restrict your true self. When you can look at the world and life correctly, you will have a chance to touch the realm of Wukong and gain true freedom.”

The stone monkey scratched his head and couldn't help saying: "Then Master, you must have reached this level."

"Of course, I'm Qi Tian... cough cough." Sun Wukong immediately coughed to cover up his embarrassment.

If he really understood "Wukong", he would also understand Patriarch Bodhi's expectations of him, and he would not have caused such a turmoil in the world and ended up being pressed under the Five Elements Mountain.

Even though it was the Heaven and Buddhism that were plotting against him, when he left Lingtai Fangcun Mountain at that time, he was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins and looked down on everyone. Relying on his great skills and courage, he made trouble in the Dragon Palace and broke into the underworld without thinking about the consequences. As long as they didn't go according to his wishes, he would smash them with one blow.

This is the cause and effect relationship!

"Brother Monkey!"

At this time, a fiery red figure flew from the sky. Before it landed, one could feel the fire coming towards him.

The person coming is Nezha!
"Brother Monkey? Master, who is Nezha calling?" the stone monkey asked with a smile.

He was born not long ago and didn't know many people. Nezha was one of them, but he only met him twice.

"I'm calling you." Sun Wukong said depressedly.

"Isn't this bad? I was just born, how can I be called Brother Monkey?" The stone monkey said modestly, but he felt an inexplicable satisfaction in his heart.

Nezha landed, and the wind-fire wheels under his feet automatically moved to the side.

"Nezha." The stone monkey greeted with a grin, quite politely.

"Monkey, I haven't seen you for a few days. You have changed a lot. And you seem to have grown taller." Nezha said. "?? Monkey? Wasn't that Monkey Brother just now? What's going on?" The stone monkey was puzzled.

"Cough cough cough, okay. Nezha, why are you here?" asked Sun Wukong.

"I looked for Yang Jian and his sister but couldn't find them. I just happened to pass by here so I came here. How about Monkey..." Nezha looked at Sun Wukong expectantly, hoping that he could help look for them.

With Sun Wukong's ability, he can find even an ant, let alone a living person.

But before Nezha could finish his words, Sun Wukong picked him up and walked him aside, saying unhappily:
"You're still Monkey King? Ah? Now I am the Bodhi Taoist, don't you understand? If you keep talking nonsense, I will be exposed."

Nezha was stunned for a second, then realized what was going on and said quickly:
"I see. No wonder the monkey looked weird. This is where the problem comes from."

"Don't worry, nothing will come to light, Monkey."

Then, Nezha put his hands in the waist seam of his pants and came to the stone monkey, looking arrogant, and said:
"Call me Brother Zha!"

"??"

The stone monkey was stunned, not understanding why Nezha's behavior was so different now. He was a little unconvinced, but then he remembered his teacher's teachings and said:
"Brother Zha."

"No, Aotian, why do you call this kid Brother Zha?" Sun Wukong couldn't hold it anymore.

"Master, Nezha is older than me." The stone monkey answered honestly.

"Age? Haha, you were transformed from a stone fetus. In terms of age, you are much older than Nezha." Sun Wukong said loudly.

"Bodhi, if you really want to compare, I was created by the Hunyuan Pearl and have existed since the creation of the world." Nezha said unconvinced.

"..."

Sun Wukong was silent for a moment, it seemed that what Nezha said made sense.

"Master, what do you think I should be called?" asked the stone monkey.

"Just call me Zhazi." said Sun Wukong.

"Ah?" Nezha.

"!" Stone Monkey.

"What? It's good enough that I didn't call you Renzha." Sun Wukong said unhappily.

"Okay, you're stupid, don't fight for this." Nezha shook his head. He couldn't beat him, so what else could he do?

Sun Wukong stood proudly and said with a smile: "Don't be angry, Zhazi. Ahem, it was just a joke. By the way, since you are here, you can help and take Aotian out for some training."

"Aotian, poof, this is the name of the stone monkey."

Nezha covered his mouth and smiled obscenely.

“……”Stone monkey.

"Ao Tiancai has only been practicing for a few days. He should calm down a little." Nezha said afterwards.

“What’s the point of settling down? I’ve taught you everything you need to know. The rest is up to you to figure out on your own.” said Sun Wukong.

"Master, are you going to chase my disciple away?" the stone monkey asked in horror.

"My silly disciple, all good things must come to an end. It won't do to practice alone. You have to go out, see more and make more friends." Sun Wukong said.

"But I want to stay with you," the stone monkey said reluctantly.

"Okay, stop being fussy. It's not like we won't see each other again."

Sun Wukong regretted using the alias Bodhi, it was not convenient at all.

Now is a good opportunity to break the vest and restore the identity of Sun Wukong.

"Okay, Aotian, if you follow me from now on, I guarantee you will become successful and famous in the three realms." Nezha said.

The stone monkey glanced at Nezha and felt that his future was bleak as he saw his unreliable appearance.

He has golden eyes that can see through illusions, and can tell that Nezha is up to no good, and doesn't look like a good person, with all kinds of flaws. This journey may be a long one.

"Master, since I want to gain experience, can you point me in a direction?" said the stone monkey.

Sun Wukong pondered, glanced at the East China Sea, and said with bright eyes:
"Disciple, although your cultivation has not yet reached the pinnacle, it is not weak. When cultivators fight, in addition to their own cultivation, the most important thing is to have magic weapons. A suitable weapon is very important for increasing combat power."

"Magic weapons, my master has a lot of them, how about getting some?" Nezha said.

"No need, there is already one ready-made." said Sun Wukong.

"Ready-made?" Nezha didn't react.

“The dragons are now free and no longer have to guard the underwater prison. The underwater monsters have submitted to the dragons and will no longer come out to cause trouble for the common people.

The Dinghaishenzhen is just a decoration, now is a good time to take it, I believe the Dragon King should do a favor." Sun Wukong said.

"Wow, the Dinghai Shenzhen! How could I forget this magic weapon?" Nezha said in surprise.

"The Dinghai Shenzhen!" The stone monkey's heart trembled, and he felt a strong sense of fate when he heard the name.

"My disciple, go to the East China Sea and ask the Dragon King for the Dinghai Shenzhen," said Sun Wukong.

The stone monkey scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Master, I have no relationship with the Dragon King, what if he doesn't give it to me?"

"If you don't give it to me, just get it yourself. When you are out, do whatever makes you comfortable." said Sun Wukong.

"what?"

The stone monkey was silent. Why did it feel like his master's painting style was changing drastically? Was this still the same Bodhi Patriarch with an immortal look in his mind?

What’s the difference between taking it yourself and robbing it?

"Let's go, don't think about it, Aotian. I'll introduce you to my friend Ao Bing from the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea."

Nezha dragged the stone monkey into the East China Sea, while Sun Wukong turned around and restored his true form, saying:
"It's still comfortable this way. The karma of this world has been resolved, and it's almost time for me, Old Sun, to go back.

As for Aotian, the road to the future is right under your feet. It's up to you how you walk!"

After leaving behind a few words, Sun Wukong disappeared without leaving any trace.

The entire East China Sea was turbulent with waves and dark clouds gradually gathering together, as if a catastrophe was about to begin.
