Countless bigwig experts seek to transcend, and I'm no exception.
My objective in the past isn't important anymore. Now, I want to transcend. It's not for any other reason, nor is it because of transcendence itself. It's because I want to seek justice from the Tathagata!
It doesn't matter if I'm stubborn or furious.
I don't care what the world says about me. I just want to live my life to its fullest!
The flames within the monkey's eyes seemed to be gushing out, forming a momentum that could burn the heavens.
Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng looked at the Great Sage Equalling Heavens, and their expressions turned solemn.
He had to start all over again.
Although it sounded simple, the difficulty involved was indescribable.
It wasn't just a thousand years, ten thousand years, or even longer of bitter cultivation. At the same time, it also meant that everything would become uncertain.
Even if Sun Wukong was born from the Earthly Essence Stone, who could guarantee that he would attain the Grand Heavenly Realm Physique?
Who could guarantee that he would have the hope of transcending?
In an extreme scenario, it wasn't impossible for him to perish due to natural disasters or man-made disasters.
However, the monkey in front of them didn't seem to have any doubts.
To him, no matter if he succeeded or failed, it was better than being suppressed here without any chance of liberation!
"Without freedom, I'd rather die than fight against the heavens and earth without fear …" Yan Zhaoge sighed and looked at the Great Sage Equalling Heavens, "I'll try to find a suitable candidate for you, Great Sage."
The Great Sage Equalling Heavens stared at him. After a long while, he said, "Brat, aren't you afraid of angering the Tathagata? Although he transcended, it's not impossible for him to return. "
"That's right. However, it doesn't mean that I'll definitely anger the Tathagata Buddha." Yan Zhaoge smiled, "To be honest, if I were to anger the Tathagata Buddha, I'd have to think about it."
"It's not because I'm afraid, but because I'm not alone. One person can eat his fill, and the whole family will not go hungry." He turned around and looked at Feng Yunsheng, "I have family, friends, and fellow disciples. I have to think about them."
"If I'm like you, Great Sage, even if I might anger the Tathagata Buddha, I'd still do some things."
Yan Zhaoge said calmly, "It's human nature to seek benefits and avoid harm. I'm no exception. However, I don't have to weigh the pros and cons before doing anything."
"Sometimes, I'm also very willful. What I want is to be happy!"
Monkey stared at him for a long time before asking, "How did you two kids find your way here?"
"Actually, I was entrusted by someone." Yan Zhaoge's gaze turned serious, and he answered honestly, "The person who entrusted it to me only said that there was an existence being suppressed here, and asked me to see who it was. However, he never expected it to be you, Great Sage."
The monkey asked, "Who asked you to do this?"
After pondering for a while, Yan Zhaoge answered, "One of my Daoism's Four Imperials, the Southern Extremity Longevity Emperor."
"That old South Pole Immortal Old Man …" The Great Sage, Heaven's Equal raised his head slightly and pondered for a while.
After a while, a smile appeared on his hairy face. "I don't care if you're sincere or not. You've helped me this time, so I, Old Sun, have to thank you."
"Great Sage, is there a limit to the cultivation of the person you are looking for? Are there any requirements for quantity? "Yan Zhaoge asked.
The Great Sage, Heaven's Equal waved his hairy claw, "The higher the cultivation, the lesser the quantity. For example, if the girl beside you had her cultivation, she alone would suffice."
In other words, if one's cultivation was low, more people would be required to share the burden.
"Alright, I'll remember it." Yan Zhaoge nodded.
The monkey asked again, "That girl only talked about Old Man Tathagata's Transcendence. What happened after that?"
Yan Zhaoge's heart jolted, "There are many things that can't be explained in a few words."
He told the monkey about the important matters after the Middle era and before the Great Calamity of the new era. The more the monkey listened, the more his eyes widened.
"Hahaha, although Old Man Tathagata had Transcended, his own orthodoxy had failed as well!" The Great Sage, Heaven's Equal laughed, "Originally, Maitreya only needed to walk on Old Man Tathagata's path. However, he was tricked by someone, which blocked his original path of the great dao. As a result, he was forced to walk on another path. As a result, Old Man Tathagata's orthodoxy underwent a drastic change!"
"Let me think about it. Amitabha doesn't look like it. The person who ruined Maitreya's original Dao path is most likely that old fellow Randeng."
The Great Sage, Heaven's Equal sneered and said, "That spineless person had ruined the lives of many people. Most of the Humanly Essence Stone fragments must have fallen into the central Blessed Lands of Saha. After Old Man Tathagata transcended, he must have passed it to Maitreya. Now, it has become Maitreya's foundation."
"Currently, the Blessed Lands of the White Lotus's Buddhist light imbued with faith power originates from the Humanoid Essence Stone?" Yan Zhaoge came to a realization and continued pondering, "However, now that the Blessed Lands of the White Lotus and the Demon Race are on the same side, the Demon Race might still possess some Humanly Essence Stone fragments …"
After hearing about the existence of the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, the monkey stroked the fur behind his ears. "What kind of background does this fellow have? He actually obtained a Tianyuan Stone? However, there are only a few people who are the most suspicious, and they can't be one of them. "
Yan Zhaoge truly felt that his trip to the Five Elements Mountain this time had not been in vain.
He had learned many secrets from the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal.
He could feel that the fog between him and history was slowly fading away.
Of course, even if Sun Wukong wasn't lying, it was limited to what he knew. It might not be the truth of history.
However, to Yan Zhaoge, this information was already extremely precious.
After all, he could compare it with the information he possessed.
Many pieces of information that were once scattered or seemingly useless were starting to shine brightly.
"Great Sage, my wife and I shall take our leave now. Take care."
They had been staying beneath the Five Elements Mountain for quite some time. Even if the Western Pure Lands' people were obstructing them, it had already been more than two hours.
The two of them needed time to leave as well. As such, Yan Zhaoge immediately took his leave.
"After so many years, it's rare for the two of you to come and chat with me. If you leave, I'll be sad again." The monkey scratched his ears and cheeks, "Go, go. Come back as soon as possible."
Yan Zhaoge slapped his head, "Right, other than the Victorious Fighting Buddha, the Great Sage who Pacifies Heavens – Bull Demon King is also outside. Great Sage, do you need me to contact him and tell him about your situation?"
Upon hearing the Victorious Fighting Buddha's name, the flames of rage surfaced within the Great Sage Equalling Heavens' eyes.
To him, that Buddha was like an old scar, an eternal humiliation.
However, upon hearing the Great Sage who Pacifies Heavens – Bull Demon King's name, the flames within his eyes disappeared, and he let out a sigh.
Previously, when Feng Yunsheng was describing the legends of the Journey to the West, she had briefly mentioned the Bull Demon King's family.
"Don't say it, don't say it!" The Great Sage Equalling Heavens said in frustration, "I don't have the face to meet him now. If I tell him, he'll think that I'm lying to coax him."
The monkey gritted his teeth, "When will I personally kill that spineless bastard? I'll tell him and my old brothers about it."
"Alright, I won't say it." Yan Zhaoge shrugged and said with a serious expression, "Great Sage, take care. The two of us shall take our leave."
The Great Sage Equalling Heavens jumped onto the mountain rock. With his hand covering his eyes, he watched the two leave.
"My eyes shouldn't be mistaken, right?" He muttered to himself.
