Chat group: Living in a fantasy world, investing in countless realms

Sun Wukong scoffed, "Do you understand immortals better than I do? Immortals are never like the legends portray them. Take this area for example, there are quite a few demons around here, aren't there?"

The young man nodded.

Living in this world, he heard legends of demons and monsters every day, and he was terrified.

Sun Wukong pointed to a city in the west and said, "The Great Sun Tathagata is in that city. Why didn't he subdue the demons? Do you know?"

The boy was shocked, then shook his head repeatedly.

Sun Wukong then explained his plan to travel west.

"For the sake of the journey to the West, this Buddha disregarded the lives of ordinary people. Is this much different from the gods you know?"

The boy fell silent.

In myths and legends, gods are always the ones who save people from suffering.

But now, the young immortal says—immortals are stingy, immortals are cruel, immortals are indifferent, immortals are unscrupulous.

This was a huge shock to him.

It took him a while to believe it.

Sun Wukong, carrying the boy, leaped away from the Five Fingers Mountain.

Even if the heavens are in chaos, the Great Sun Tathagata could not possibly be unaware of such a great commotion.

If we wait any longer, we might run into the Great Sun Buddha.

Upon arriving in the city, Sun Wukong ordered a table of food and wine and began to eat slowly.

"After five hundred years, it's wonderful to be able to enjoy such fine wine and food again!"

The boy snapped out of his daze and looked at Sun Wukong.

"Immortal, what is the purpose of telling me all these things?"

Sun Wukong chuckled: "The fact that you were able to enter the Five Fingers Mountain shows you have good aptitude. So, how about it, are you interested in becoming my disciple?"

"Can I do it too?" The boy was stunned. "I'm just an ordinary person."

Sun Wukong said calmly, "All living beings in this world are ordinary to me. What difference is there? You broke my seal and have good aptitude, so I am willing to pass on the cultivation method to you."

"Cultivate to become an immortal?" The young man was very interested, but also a little scared. "If I become an immortal, wouldn't I have to go to the Heavenly Court? I'm afraid that I'll offend someone and get locked up."

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid." Sun Wukong shook his head. "Now that the calamity of immortals and gods is about to begin, it's not certain who will be in charge of the Heavenly Court in the future. Maybe, the future Heavenly Emperor will be you, kid."

The boy was speechless.

He didn't even dare to dream of becoming an immortal, let alone becoming the head of the gods and immortals.

"Kid, just tell me if you're willing or not?" Sun Wukong asked.

The young man composed himself and said, "Disciple Lü Yan greets Master."

"Good, good, good!" Sun Wukong was experiencing the novelty of being a master for the first time. He pointed out the way of the celestial immortals and taught him, "Ask me if you don't understand anything."

Lü Yan nodded, closed his eyes for a moment, and looked at Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong asked, "Is there anything you don't understand?"

Lü Yan was a little embarrassed: "It seems like there's nothing I don't understand."

"There's nothing you don't understand?" Sun Wukong was astonished.

Although the path to immortality has been clearly explained, who exactly is Lü Yan?

He was just an ordinary herb gatherer, who might not even be literate, yet he actually understood everything.

Sun Wukong didn't believe it and asked several questions in a row. Although Lü Yan didn't give a standard answer, he still gave a similar answer based on his own understanding.

After hearing this, Sun Wukong was immediately stunned.

"Good lad, you are indeed extraordinary." Sun Wukong exclaimed. "Eat first, then you can cultivate."

On a whim, I opened the chat group.

Sun Wukong: "Something big has happened. I took in a disciple who turned out to be a genius. I just passed on the Path of the Celestial Immortals to him, and he understood it all."

Lin Daiyu: "Really? Even I need to ponder it for a while before I can say I understand. How long did it take him?"

Sun Wukong: "In terms of the chat group's timer, it's five minutes."

Su Xiaoxiao: "Five minutes? Lin Meimei, how long did it take you?"

Lin Daiyu: "...It took me fifteen minutes. The Great Sage's disciple is too much of a genius!"

Hu Yifei: "By the way, Great Sage, what is your disciple's name?"

Sun Wukong: "His name is Lü Yan, a herb gatherer. He's the one who picked the lotus flower from the mountaintop and released me, which is why I thought of teaching him cultivation."

Umaru: "Has the Great Sage become so good? If he were still true to his nature, wouldn't he have eaten the person who released you?"

Sun Wukong: "...Am I really that cruel?!"

Su Xiaoxiao: "If it were before, it would probably be possible."

Sun Wukong: "It seems that's true. However, I've been feeling quite cheerful chatting with everyone lately, unlike before."

Hu Yifei: "Intelligent beings need to communicate, right? How could someone's hostility disappear after being confined for five hundred years? The Great Sage has been talking for so long, and his hostility has decreased. This is the effect of communication."

Azhu: "Lü Yan? I think I know why!"

Ningxiang: "I know too! Lü Yan, Lü Chunyang, one of the Eight Immortals of Shangdong. The Great Sage took on a famous person as his first disciple."

Hu Yifei: "Wait a minute, I remember Lü Chunyang wasn't even born around this time, right?"

(Wang Qian Zhao) Zhang Taixuan: "In parallel worlds, historical events are altered, let alone a person's birth and death."

Sun Wukong: "Is it Lü Dongbin, or a reincarnation of a deity?"

Zhang Taixuan: "I just did some calculations. Your Lü Yan is not a reincarnation of a deity. He just has a pure yang body and is exceptionally talented."

Zhang Taixuan: "There's one more thing to congratulate you on. By taking Lü Yan as your disciple, your luck has increased by at least ten percent."

Sun Wukong: "Ten percent? He's just a mortal!! I'm almost at the Golden Immortal realm, and he can increase my luck by ten percent? Is he really that terrifying?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Do you think just anyone can release you? The fact that he was able to enter the Five Finger Mountain speaks volumes. You just used the Heavenly Immortal Path to cause changes in the world, and the next thing you know someone is releasing you. Don't you think that's too much of a coincidence?"

Sun Wukong: "It was the Heavenly Dao that released me. And Lü Yan, is he a pawn of the Heavenly Dao?"

Zhang Taixuan: "That's right!"

Sun Wukong: "I see. I was wondering what a coincidence it was!"

Zhang Taixuan: "This incident also proves one thing—the Heavenly Dao of your world has accepted my plan and has begun to help you."

Sun Wukong: "Help me?"

Zhang Taixuan: "If you were the Heavenly Dao, and someone were to create a calamity that would destroy the world, and you were unwilling to accept it, what would you do? You'd be lucky not to kill the person who created the calamity, let alone release you?"

Sun Wukong: "That's true."

Ye Hei: "Good heavens, so there were so many risks at the beginning of the Evolution of Heaven and Earth Calamity Plan."

Zhang Taixuan: "What is without risk?"

Sun Wukong: "That's right. Since I made this choice, I naturally considered the risks long ago. It's just strange that the Heavenly Dao actually approved of it."

Zhang Taixuan: "Perhaps it's because He had no other choice. He chose to join the Celestial Immortal Path because if He didn't join this path, the world would collapse. It was a desperate measure. Choosing to evolve the calamity of heaven and earth was actually the best option."

Su Xiaoxiao: "That's not right. He can create the Heaven and Earth Calamity on his own, why would he need to rely on Brother Taixuan?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Probably because they can't bear to part with it. The world has evolved to its current state, it would be such a pity to give it up. Although the Heavenly Calamity can solve the problem, it is equivalent to a world-wide restart. It is not something that can be accomplished in a short time to evolve back to its current prosperous state."

Zhang Taixuan: "My plan can only be described as helping Heaven and Earth make a decision. The matter is settled, and it is the best choice, so He can only not object. Anyway, He has no other good options."

Sun Wukong: "Lord Daoist, what should I do now?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Of course, it's about gathering up our fortune and striving to reap the fruits of victory after the calamity of heaven and earth."

Sun Wukong: "Is there a way to gather our fortune?"

Xiaomai: "Great Sage, are you stupid? You just said that you took Lü Yan as your disciple and your luck increased by 10%. To gather luck, of course you should take those with strong luck as your disciples."

Zhang Taixuan: "That's right. The human race is currently enjoying great fortune. If you can promote the Heavenly Immortal Path in the mortal realm, then—fortune will naturally gather there. Moreover, since the Heavenly Dao also wants to promote the Heavenly Immortal Path, this matter will be so smooth that you can't even imagine it."

Sun Wukong: "I see, thank you all for your guidance. However, I am currently in demon form, which is inconvenient. I wonder if you could sell me the technique of transformation and change of form so that I can conceal my demon origins."

Zhang Taixuan: "That's easy. Remember to give me points later [red envelope]."

Sun Wukong: "Don't worry, Daoist Lord, I have quite a few good things here, and I'll soon have enough points. I'm logging off now; I need to go teach Lü Yan and also consider establishing my own sect."

After ending the chat, Sun Wukong hurriedly began to implement his plan.

Become a Golden Immortal, and you will be eternally immortal.

He couldn't help but be anxious about this.

The impending calamity of heaven and earth was something not only he knew, but other immortals and gods could also foresee.

If we don't hurry, the opportunity will be snatched away by someone else.

Wouldn't he end up with nothing after all his efforts?
