"Roar!"
Sun Wukong roared towards the sky and kicked the Purple-Gold Eight Trigrams Furnace. A ball of True Samadhi Fire flew out from it and headed towards the lower realm.
It happened to land on a large mountain next to the Emerald Cloud Mountain, instantly burning all the towering ancient trees and wild beasts into ashes. The originally beautiful mountains and rivers with dense spiritual qi became bare.
Moreover, the Samadhi Fire was not an ordinary fire. It could not be blown away by the wind or extinguished by the rain. Therefore, this mountain became a flaming mountain, and the flames would not be extinguished all year round.
After Sun Wukong escaped from the Purple-Gold Eight Trigrams Furnace, his bestial nature was triggered because he had been harmed by the True Samadhi Fire and smoke for a long time. He was like a white-fronted tiger with a raging single-horned dragon. He took out the Jingu Staff and attacked.
The six guards who were escorting Sun Wukong went forward to suppress him, but they were all sent flying by him with a single strike.
Soon, Sun Wukong left the Tushita Palace. When he remembered that the Jade Emperor had sent the Heavenly Army and Heavenly General to capture him, he walked toward the Soaring Heaven King Palace in anger.
Along the way, countless heavenly soldiers and generals tried to stop him, but they were all sent flying by Sun Wukong's staff.
Those who were lucky were spared, while those who were unlucky were directly blown up, turning into a cloud of blood mist that filled the sky. The smell of blood was irritating to the ears and nose.
Sun Wukong had reached Soaring Heaven King Palace all the way and was about to enter Soaring Heaven King Palace. This was definitely not possible.
After all, the Soaring Heaven King Palace was the face of the Heavenly Court. Although the Jade Emperor and Zhunti had discussed the matter of Sun Wukong wreaking havoc in the Heavenly Palace, they couldn't completely lose face.
Thus, Wang Lingguan stood out and berated,"Where does the monkey demon want to go? Don't be so arrogant with me around!"
"Die!"
At this moment, Sun Wukong's eyes were already red. He wanted to rush into the Soaring Heaven King Palace and beat the Jade Emperor to death. When he saw that someone was blocking him, he raised his rod without any explanation.
Lingguan Wang was naturally not afraid. He raised his whip to meet Sun Wukong. He was a trusted aide of the Jade Emperor, and his cultivation had already broken through to the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm. It would be easy for him to kill Sun Wukong, but the Jade Emperor had instructed him to stall him.
Therefore, when Wang Lingguan and Sun Wukong fought, he had to suppress his strength and pretend to be evenly matched.
Inside the Soaring Heaven King Palace, the Jade Emperor sat on a high seat and looked at Sun Wukong who was outside the palace. He then instructed the Traveling Spirit Official and Saint Yi,""Quickly go to the western paradise and invite Buddha Rulai to suppress the demonic monkey.”
"Yes."
" Yes!" Spirit Official Youyi and Saint Yi cupped their hands together and replied loudly.
Immediately, the two of them issued a decree and left the Heavenly Court. They went straight to the Great Thunderclap Monastery of the Western Spirit Mountain to pay their respects to Gautama Buddha.
"Why did the Jade Emperor bother the two Saints to descend to the mortal world?"
Gautama asked.
Spirit Official Youyi told him about Sun Wukong and the Jade Emperor's decree, which was for Buddha Tathagata to go to the Heavenly Court to suppress the demonic monkey.
Gautama Buddha immediately said," How dare you! The demon monkey is so audacious! How dare he cause chaos in the Heavenly Court! This Penniless Monk will obey the Jade Emperor's orders and suppress him!"”
"All of you sit here in the court and don't mess up your Zen position.”
Buddha Tathagata gave an order to the Bodhisattvas, Arhats, and Vajra. Then, he led Ananda and Maha Kasyapa to the Heavenly Court, followed by Spiritual Official Youyi and Saint Yi.
After Buddha Rulai descended, Lingguan Wang's eyes flashed and he immediately retreated.
Sun Wukong was stunned, but his anger had clouded his mind. Without thinking, he waved his Jingu Staff and rushed into the Soaring Heaven King Palace.
However, Gautama Buddha blocked him.
"Who are you? How dare you block me, the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal!”
Sun Wukong asked Buddha Rulai sternly.
"Amitabha, I am Rulai. I heard that you were wreaking havoc in the Heavenly Palace.”
Gautama Buddha put his palms together and chanted a Buddhist name before asking Sun Wukong with a smile.
"The Jade Emperor captured me. First, he cut me with a knife, then he cut me with an axe, then he cut me with a spear, then he cut me with a sword, then he burned me with fire and lightning, and finally he threw me into the Eight Trigrams Furnace.”
Sun Wukong shouted,"Today, I, Old Sun, will kill the old Jade Emperor and take the throne myself!"”
"You're just a demon monkey from the lower realm. How dare you snatch the position of the Jade Emperor God?”
"The Jade Emperor has cultivated for 1750 tribulations since he was a child. Each tribulation is 129600 years. How long did it take him to enjoy this boundless Great Dao?”
"You're just a spiritual beast. How dare you say such a thing! You're simply not a son!"
Buddha Tathagata immediately sneered when he heard this.
"As the saying goes, the emperor takes turns to do it and comes to my house next year. Although the Jade Emperor has cultivated for a long time, it is not a reason for him to always occupy the position of honor.”
"Today, it's fine if the Jade Emperor took the initiative to give up his position. Otherwise, I, Old Sun, will definitely stir up the Heavenly Court and never be peaceful!”
Sun Wukong said proudly. The Jingu Staff in his hand emitted a golden light as if it was responding to him.
Gautama Buddha shook his head when he heard this, thinking that Sun Wukong was too arrogant. A mere Primordial Unity Golden Immortal actually dared to say that he would disrupt the Heavenly Court.
However, Gautama Buddha knew that this was Zhunti's plan. He deliberately made Sun Wukong ignorant. Ignorance would make him fearless, and fearlessness would easily offend others.
To make Sun Wukong offend everyone in the Three Realms and force him to rely on Buddhism and be closely bound to it was Zhunti's ultimate goal. It could be said that he wanted to be sinister.
Not only did he cheat Sun Wukong, but he also wanted him to be grateful.
If Sun Wukong knew that his beloved teacher, Patriarch Bodhi, had tricked him like this, he would probably vomit blood.
However, this was not something that Gautama Buddha had to consider. He only needed to suppress Sun Wukong, so he said,"You demon monkey, you're so arrogant. You keep asking for the position of Jade Emperor.”
"How about this, let's make a bet. If you can fly out of my palm, it'll be considered your win. You'll be the Jade Emperor.”
"If you can't, then go down to the lower realm and become a demon.”
"This Tathagata is a fool."
Sun Wukong couldn't help but snicker when he heard this. He had somersaulted a hundred and eight thousand miles, while Tathagata's palm was less than a foot long. No matter how he thought about it, he would win this competition and the position of Jade Emperor would be within his grasp.
"Alright," he replied loudly,"I, Old Sun, will agree to your request!"”
The two of them began to compete. The result was naturally Sun Wukong's loss. Gautama Buddha was a Quasi-Sage. If he were to escape from the palm of his hand, he could find a tofu to kill himself.
After Sun Wukong lost, he wanted to renege on his debt. In the end, he was slapped down by Buddha Tathagata, who turned his five fingers into five mountains of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, collectively known as the Five Elements Mountain, and suppressed him in the lower realm.
"Beautiful!"
"The World Venerable One's powers are boundless and his divine powers are limitless.”
Seeing this, Ananda and Maha Kasyapa immediately began to flatter Gautama Buddha. The Jade Emperor also invited him to the banquet.
On the Flowerfruit Mountain, Jiang Mingyue's gaze pierced through the void and saw Sun Wukong who was suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain. He thought,""Five hundred years. I still have five hundred years to cultivate.”
Five hundred years later, the Cultivation Tribulation of the Journey to the West would officially begin. Jiang Mingyue had to find a way to destroy the Journey to the West no matter what.
It would be better if there was no hope of reviving Jie School. Not only would Jiang Mingyue disappoint Sect Leader Tongtian and the others, but the only main mission would also be lost.
Jiang Mingyue didn't want to see such a situation, so he had to improve his cultivation as soon as possible during the 500 years that Sun Wukong was suppressed.
No, it couldn't be said to be 500 years. With the help of the incomplete Time God Tower, Jiang Mingyue had 5,000 years to prepare.
