Lao Tzu is Ji Gong

This battle is still one that surpasses even the one over there, a battle fought by people who have emerged from five parallel worlds.

The first Sun Wukong to emerge from the world of flames was now completely soaked in sweat, and his hair was noticeably curling under the sweat and high temperature.

Therefore, the moment he saw his master Jin Chanzi, he was overjoyed: "Master, Master, how are you? I missed you so much."

Perhaps Sun Wukong's overly sentimental behavior was truly due to the intense discomfort he had just experienced in the fiery world.

Although Jin Chanzi had emerged from the illusory Mount Ling, the scenes from just moments before were still vivid in his mind, and he could not forget them at all.

Thinking back to my battle with Buddha, where the evil dragon monk appeared due to my demonic nature, I still feel a bit apprehensive.

Faced with Sun Wukong's shouts, Jin Chanzi was still not awake. Even if Sun Wukong had suffered a lot in the world of flames, it was only physical pain. Jin Chanzi was originally a highly accomplished monk, and this sudden change in his mind was quite shocking to him.

If one is obsessed with the need for power and position, then all that one has pursued in life will have vanished into nothingness.

Thinking of this, cold sweat suddenly broke out, making one dare not even consider touching it again.

Seeing that his master did not respond, Sun Wukong cried out anxiously, "Master, what's wrong?!"

However, Tang Sanzang still looked completely lost, which was quite frustrating to watch.

Sun Wukong continued to shout, "What's wrong with you, Master? Don't scare me. Although Li Xiuyuan is the most powerful hero and master in my heart, you are still the same."

When Tang Sanzang heard the name Li Xiuyuan and his own name, he seemed to sense something, and his eyes twitched involuntarily.

Sun Wukong, with his fiery eyes, naturally saw it all and knew that his words had definitely had some effect.

He continued, "On the journey to the West to obtain the scriptures, your tireless teachings and constant guidance to me have been a great fortune to this little monkey."

Seeing Sun Wukong's genuine emotions, Tang Sanzang's heart, which was rooted in kindness, was also touched.

Sun Wukong continued in a cheesy tone, "Even though I am now a Hunyuan Daluo Loose Immortal, Master still never forgets to educate me. I know that I am naturally mischievous, and whenever I get into trouble, you are always the first one to appear by my side, Jin Chanzi Tang Sanzang."

The Six-Eared Macaque, who emerged from the opposite world of flames alongside Sun Wukong, naturally heard Sun Wukong's words. The Six-Eared Macaque, who was already nearly frozen to the bone, simply couldn't stand this guy anymore.

It's absolutely disgusting and nauseating.

In his eyes, there is no true affection in this world, only the size of power. Besides his inherently unruly nature, there is also the fact that this guy fears nothing more than a peaceful world.

Seeing him staring so infatuatedly at Sun Wukong and Jin Chanzi was almost unbearable, so he rubbed his body and mocked, "I never thought you monkey would be like this. It's almost making me laugh to death. What 'Master, Master'? Don't you feel nauseous?"

Faced with the cold mockery of the Six-Eared Macaque, Sun Wukong, after experiencing this fiery world, for some reason did not have the same impulsiveness as before.

If this had happened just now, upon hearing such words, I would have immediately attacked with a single blow, and it would have been a disservice to the majesty of the Golden Cudgel to not fight it for three days and three nights.

However, if he were still the same Sun Wukong from back then, he probably wouldn't say such things now.

Perhaps the cause and effect here, and the lessons learned from this experience, are what Li Xiuyuan wants these guys to learn.

No matter how much the Six-Eared Macaque mocked him, Sun Wukong only wanted to pull Jin Chanzi out of his dazed state of mind. Even if he didn't think about the kindness between master and disciple, he should still do so in the face of the several times Jin Chanzi had saved his life.

Fortunately, the Six-Eared Macaque had already gone through a very severe test with Sun Wukong and the others, so he no longer had any extra energy to cause trouble, except for verbal sparring.

Therefore, Sun Wukong was well aware of the reason, which was to seize the time to call for Tang Sanzang.

Meanwhile, the red-bottomed macaque that emerged from the virtual world appeared before everyone as if it had suffered no damage whatsoever.

Seeing that this fellow was still full of energy, the Six-Eared Macaque happily exclaimed, "Sun Wukong, it seems that today is the day Heaven wants you to die. You have no choice but to perish."

Sun Wukong's nerves were on edge at this moment. Although he had always boasted before, "This red-bottomed macaque is nothing special. I, Old Sun, can still beat him so badly that he can't find his way home."

But if he were to actually face this red-bottomed macaque, he would have experienced its power firsthand. Its domineering strength and perfect control over water elements forced him to take it seriously.

Moreover, the current Sun Wukong is not the same brute force he once was. He has not yet fully recovered from the injuries he sustained in the world of fire, and his mobility is less than two-tenths of what it used to be. This is truly frustrating.

There's absolutely no leverage to stand up to this guy to the end.

Furthermore, Tang Sanzang needed someone to take care of him at this time. If he were to be restrained by the Red-Bottomed Macaque, and the Six-Eared Macaque were to do something to his master, he would be powerless to resist, and he would truly regret it then.

The red-bottomed macaque looked at the six-eared macaque, as if it had heard what was said earlier, and then turned to look at Sun Wukong, as if it was thinking about something.

What Sun Wukong, the Victorious Fighting Buddha, needs now is time, and he especially hopes that Tang Sanzang can recover immediately.

Chapter 930 Let me, Old Sun, teach you a lesson.

Seeing the mentally challenged Tang Sanzang, Sun Wukong made up his mind that if things really didn't work out, he would have no choice but to stay by his side and live with him.

I don't know why, but after coming out of the virtual world of fire, it was as if I had become a completely different person, a world of difference.

Perhaps even Sun Wukong himself didn't realize that he had begun to undergo so many changes.

Wonderful, wonderful indeed!

At this moment, the only one who can think about this demon is the Red-Bottomed Macaque. Look at the two Buddhist monks and the Six-Eared Macaque, whose fighting power is almost gone, they are really powerless against this Red-Bottomed Macaque.

Although the Six-Eared Macaque and the Red-Bottomed Macaque are both under the control of Wutian, unfortunately, there is still an inescapable struggle between them.

This innate spiritual treasure is such a huge matter that if something unexpected happens, I'm afraid no one can bear such a heavy responsibility.

If it were to fall into the hands of the Heavenly Palace, the Buddhist Sect, or the Demonic Sect, it would be a tremendous blow to everyone else.

In their eyes, apart from their own side, everyone else is someone who wants to disrupt the peace of the Three Realms, so the infighting between them is never-ending.

Li Xiuyuan had also considered this situation, so he naturally wanted to let him investigate it thoroughly. Often, it is in places where there is intrigue and scheming that one's strength and will are truly tested.

The red-bottomed macaque would certainly not let go of this opportunity to eliminate the two major enemies of Buddhism. Although in its eyes there was no one else here who could rival it except itself, no matter how arrogant it was, it was not that stupid.

Therefore, under the instigation of the Six-Eared Macaque, they naturally and slowly headed towards where Sun Wukong and Jin Chanzi were.

"What are you going to do?!" Sun Wukong asked, as if this was a common question uttered by everyone in every story when they were about to be persecuted.

"What am I supposed to do? Haha." The red-bottomed macaque thought it was a really funny joke, so it turned to look at the six-eared macaque and said, "Did you hear that? This guy actually asked me what I was supposed to do to him."

The Six-Eared Macaque chimed in, "Then let me answer you for Brother Macaque. We're going to skin you and pull out your tendons. Do you know how much we hate you?"

Seeing that Sun Wukong remained silent, the Six-Eared Macaque continued, "Why is it that we are all the Four Spiritual Monkeys, but you can become the Buddha and Saint that people talk about? What is it that we are inferior to you, you reckless fellow? If we are talking about strength, are we worse than you?"

The red-bottomed macaque hadn't expected this guy to get so excited. Of course, it hadn't even considered these words, because the red-bottomed macaque lived a carefree life and had no thoughts of greed or lust.

If it weren't for Li Xiuyuan's orders that he came out to assist Wutian, he would still be indulging in eating, drinking, and having fun in the water.

Seeing the Six-Eared Macaque so excited, Sun Wukong was a little surprised that the other party had such a big misunderstanding about him.

It seems today is not going to be good.

The Six-Eared Macaque continued, “Your willfulness and disobedience are always covered up for you and solved for you. Why don’t we have that? What exactly is Sun Wukong? How can he be worthy of this so-called journey to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures and become a Buddha? We are always being cursed by people, and all sorts of ghosts and monsters are associated with us.”

It seemed as if the words that had been bottled up in his heart for a long time could finally be spoken today. Like a rubber ball, the Six-Eared Macaque poured out all his words, releasing all the pressure.

After venting his emotions, he calmed down and said, "I lost my temper just now."

After hearing this, Sun Wukong couldn't help but say, "I don't know what you're talking about either, but isn't that how the world is?"

"Isn't that all? What do you mean by that?" The Six-Eared Macaque seemed to be at odds with Sun Wukong today, pressing him aggressively.

"Isn't this the law of cause and effect in this world? What I mean is that everyone has their own mission, and even we four great spirit monkeys cannot disobey it. Haven't you figured out what your problem is yet?"

"What's the problem?" The Six-Eared Macaque thought that since the other party was going to die anyway, he might as well listen to what he had to say and resolve the knot in his heart.

"It seems you haven't grasped anything from that virtual world you just experienced," Sun Wukong continued, looking at the Six-Eared Macaque who still showed no understanding.

"Do you remember what we heard before we came out?"

After this reminder, not only the six-eared macaque but also the red-bottomed macaque realized that they had indeed heard a lecture earlier. They thought that only they could hear it, but now it seems that everyone heard it.

"The teachings say that there is no absolute fairness or justice in this world, nor is there any such thing as good or evil. There is only what each person thinks in their heart."

Seeing that Sun Wukong seemed to have a point, the two clever monkeys continued to listen.

"What people call good and evil is something we can't agree on, and you demons..." The Six-Eared Macaque seemed to be very sensitive when he said the word "demon," and he couldn't hold back any longer.

Sun Wukong quickly skipped over that and continued, "Don't get excited, let me finish. It is that your demons have always existed in the mouths of the world, but through their generations of transmission, they have created the current discrimination, the inability of good and evil to coexist, and the inability of gods and demons to be at peace."

But have you ever considered the possibility that gods and demons were originally one family? What is good, and what is evil? Don't you understand these things yet?

Seeing that Sun Wukong was speaking so eloquently and passionately, the two clever monkeys were really a bit dumbfounded.

What exactly did they experience today that caused such a complete upheaval in their values, outlook on life, and worldview?

Chapter 931 Speak your mind, or shut up!

The Six-Eared Macaque looked at Sun Wukong, who was getting more and more excited as he spoke, and found it hard to believe that such words could come out of this guy's mouth. It was simply too unbelievable.

The red-bottomed macaque, which never listened to any teachings, finally understood what was going on and stopped its movements slightly.

Sun Wukong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to himself, "It really did have some effect. If these two guys were really stubborn and incorrigible, the master and disciple would probably have been killed by a single palm strike by now."

Sun Wukong continued, "We are already at the level of Hunyuan Daluo Sanxian. Above that is the level of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian, which everyone pursues. I know that you all have this as your goal and are willing to pay any price for it. The pursuit of power is worthwhile for everyone."

"Moreover, the Red-Bottomed Macaque among us is already far ahead of the two of us. With such an opportunity and our talents, I believe it is only a matter of time before we reach the realm of a sage."

Sun Wukong usually doesn't submit to anyone, so what's wrong with him today? He's started talking like this, it's like he's been possessed.

After Sun Wukong's rambling and some time had been saved, Jin Chanzi's condition had returned to normal. However, if the other party saw this, they would immediately doubt whether what he had just said was true.

Therefore, Sun Wukong stood up.

This stop startled the six-eared macaque and the red-bottomed macaque, who were engrossed in contemplating the sermon, and they wondered what the other was up to.

There was already a subtle relationship between these monkeys, and now that things had come to this point, they dared not relax in the slightest. Their personalities were clear to each other, and this battle between the demons was bound to lead to a huge disagreement.

It's really hard to guess who will ultimately get it.

Just as the three monkeys were stunned, the figure of the Antarctic Longevity Emperor suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

They dared not relax their vigilance now, as each Grand Luo Immortal could unleash tremendous power. Therefore, upon seeing the old man's appearance, the Red-Bottomed Macaque became wary.

However, Sun Wukong thought it best to remain still. Although he and his master had been on good terms with the Antarctic Emperor of Immortality before, it was really hard to guess what the other party was thinking in this situation.
