"I'm willing, I'm willing. Don't worry, Master. I'll definitely send Master Sanzang to the Spiritual Mountain in one piece!" Sun Wukong chuckled and quickly nodded in agreement.
"Very good, very good!" Cheng Hao nodded. His body swayed, and the Projection Doppelganger turned into thousands of light shadows and dissipated into the void.
As Cheng Hao's Projection Doppelganger dissipated, Sun Wukong straightened his body. The Ruyi Jingu Bang in his hand shrunk to the size of an embroidery needle, and he kept it in his ear. Then, he took a step forward and came to Tang Sanzang's side.
"Master Sanzang, in the process of learning the scriptures from now on, I'll be your disciple. If there's anything you need, feel free to instruct me. Don't stand on ceremony with me!"
As he spoke, Sun Wukong took the reins of the horse from Sanzang's hands and led the horse forward.
Sanzang followed closely behind Sun Wukong and asked cautiously, "Erm, Wukong, can I call you that?"
"Sure, sure. You can call me Sun Wukong, Monkey, or Old Sun!" Sun Wukong had a good temper. He knew that his mission this time was related to his master's plan, so he didn't put on airs.
"Then I'll call you Wukong." A smile appeared on Tang Sanzang's face. He was very satisfied with this monkey's attitude.
"Wukong, I wonder what kind of divine being your master is? To be able to have a relationship with the Buddha, he must be a Perfected Immortal, right? "
"Hehe, I won't hide it from you. There are many Immortals and Buddhas in the Three Realms. However, there are only a few top-notch figures. The Jade Emperor, the Dao Ancestor, the Buddha, and one more person. He's my master, Daoist Haotian. Do you think my master is considered a Perfected Immortal?" Sun Wukong held the reins and chuckled.
"Amitabha! So it's a mighty being at the level of the Buddha. I seem to have been rude just now! "
"It's fine, it's fine. What kind of person is my master? Why would he care about such customs?" Sun Wukong didn't mind. He held the reins and continued forward. He couldn't wait to reach the boundary of the Spiritual Mountain today.
.....
On the peak of the Penglai Celestial Mountain, Ao Wuxu returned on the blood cloud. Once he entered the mountain, he was kept into Cheng Hao's Inner World.
"Do you see the Delimitation Divine Tree below?" In the Inner World, Cheng Hao stood in the starry sky and pointed at the huge continent that spanned several light-years below.
"Master, your disciple saw it. If there's anything you need, feel free to tell me!" Ao Wuxu's emotions surged. This was the first time he had entered his master's inner world. Looking at the boundless sea of stars, his heart was filled with shock.
"There are twenty fruits on the Delimitation Divine Tree. Every one of them grew after absorbing the essence of a Stage Four powerhouse," Cheng Hao explained as he pointed at the glowing fruits on the World Tree.
"These fruits, eat as much as you want. In the next thousand years, Master wants you to advance to the Fourth Order realm!"
Cheng Hao could speed up the flow of time in his Inner World by a hundred times. A thousand years was equivalent to ten years in the outside world. According to the progress of the Journey to the West, Sanzang and the other sutra seekers should not have reached Spirited Mountain yet.
"Master … disciple …" Ao Wuxu's entire body trembled as he directly knelt down in mid-air. At this moment, he did not know what he should say for a moment.
"Why? Don't tell Master that you have no confidence! "
"Master, please rest assured. Your disciple's realm is already sufficient. Disciple only needs to eat three of these fruits to advance!"
"Three is not enough. Master wants you to eat at least ten. If you can completely refine and absorb the essence, your strength should reach the level of the Four Imperials of the Heavenly Court. Only by reaching this level will you be able to help Master in the future Battle of the Heavenly Court!"
"Your disciple understands. Master, please rest assured. Your disciple will definitely not disappoint Master!"
Previously, Ao Wuxu was still envious of Sun Wukong's fortuitous encounter. However, from the looks of it now, his master had always thought highly of him. He was very clear about the origin of the fruits that the Earth Stabilizing Divine Tree bore. Every single fruit was once a living Rank Four existence!
"Cultivate properly here. When the time is right, Master will naturally bring you out. I hope that at that time, Master will be able to see an Ao Wuxu that can make the Three Realms fear!"
Under Ao Wuxu's respectful and grateful gaze, Cheng Hao's figure flashed and he left the Inner World.
To be honest, Ao Wuxu's aptitude was not the lowest among the disciples that Cheng Hao had taken in. However, in terms of luck and fortune, compared to his junior brothers who had the halo of main characters, he could not even catch up.
However, compared to his other disciples, Cheng Hao valued Ao Wuxu more.
It was not only because he was his eldest disciple and had followed him for the longest time. Most importantly, his other disciples were all main characters of the dimension. It was very difficult for him to bring them out of their original dimension. Otherwise, he would be restricted by the dimension's Heavenly Dao and might even be hostile towards him!
However, Ao Wuxu was different. His own luck was not strong, and he was also not related to the main character. He could keep him in the Vast Heaven Pagoda, and he could transmigrate to other worlds at any time without being restrained in any way.
To the current Cheng Hao, Ao Wuxu was the only disciple that could truly help him at crucial moments. Cheng Hao was still able to distinguish between the importance and urgency of things.
At the peak of Penglai Celestial Mountain, Lin Xi seemed to have been waiting for a long time. The moment Cheng Hao came out, she cast her gaze over.
"Wukong and Ao Wuxu should have left the Two World Mountain, right? Are there any changes in the Three Thousand Middle Worlds? "The moment he appeared, Cheng Hao asked directly.
"The Journey to the West plan of the Three Thousand Middle Worlds attached to the Three Realms has already started. The only difference is that the progress of those worlds is still unfolding according to the original plot. The monkey inside is still suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain because you did not interfere, waiting for Tang Sanzang to rescue him!"
Cheng Hao nodded. "The Buddhas of the Spirited Mountain are plotting the incense and faith of the Three Realms and the Three Thousand Middle Worlds. The Jade Emperor and the Elderly Lord are plotting to upgrade the planes of the Three Realms. The key to the upgrade is related to the Journey to the West plan. It's just that there are still a lot of secrets that we can't unravel."
"There's no need to rush this matter. We just need to wait quietly. As the Journey to the West continues to unfold, we will be able to find some clues sooner or later!" Lin Xi said softly.
Cheng Hao nodded in agreement. Then, he turned to look at Lin Xi. "Oh right, how's the training of Gongsun Waner coming along?"
"That little ghost girl's Ghost Mother Life Devouring Great Technique is not weak. However, because of her Dark Body, her resistance to Dao techniques and supernatural powers is too weak. This greatly limits her ability to survive."
As Lin Xi spoke, she pointed a finger in the void. Instantly, a huge light screen appeared in mid-air.
In the light screen, Gongsun Waner seemed to be trapped in a formation space. She was bound by countless thunder chains and was undergoing the baptism of the Power of Law time and time again.
