Great Demon Sun Wukong-Chapter 657 - 604: It’s just one word: Eat!_2
Zhu Bajie once again carefully felt his body and found indeed that there was nothing unusual, so he let down his guard. "Brother Monkey, I can be sure, I am really fine. Don't worry, if I feel anything wrong, I will definitely tell you right away. I won't joke about my own life. By the way, Brother Monkey, what is this pool used for? Can I go in again? I feel, I really need this pool!"
Sun Wukong gave Zhu Bajie a blank look, "Don't even think about it, who knows what other stuff you'd sneakily eat. I've found that your Red Lotus Fire Body is a perfect match for you. You used to only eat food, but now, whatever you can swallow, your Red Lotus Fire Body can smelt into Spiritual Power. If you don't control your appetite, you'll definitely become the biggest pest!" Zhu Bajie, rather than feeling ashamed, took pride in it, patting his belly, "That's my ultimate dream, to eat everything under the sky. Hehe, Brother Monkey, about those five colored Spiritual Powers just now, can you give me a bit more?"
This time, Sun Wukong didn't refuse, "Alright, close your eyes and open your mouth!" Upon hearing this, Zhu Bajie was so happy that he salivated, closed his eyes, and opened his mouth wide. However, after waiting for a while, he didn't feel the indescribably delicious Spiritual Power, but suddenly felt a pain in his buttocks, and in an instant, Zhu Bajie knew what had happened. "You, you early plague..." Before he could finish his sentence, Zhu Bajie was already kicked out of the World Within the Artifact by Sun Wukong's foot. Shortly after, Zhu Bajie popped up in that very same Heavenly Room, "Monkey!" He finally cursed out the latter half of his sentence.
Immediately following, Sun Wukong's Divine Sense returned, saying, "Don't even think about it, my Five Elements Spiritual Power is not something you can handle right now. That thin wisp just now took me a great deal of energy to compress and refine to a level you could absorb. Since you're fine, let's let this matter go, but remember, if you feel anything wrong, tell me right away. This is no joke."
Zhu Bajie originally wanted to complain a bit more, but after hearing Sun Wukong speak so seriously, he could only rub his buttocks while nodding.
Although Sun Wukong was still worried, he hadn't found any anomalies and Zhu Bajie felt nothing, so even with his concern, there was nothing he could do but wait and see. It would be best if nothing happened, but if something did come up, they would have no choice but to seek advice from a few old friends. Putting his thoughts aside, Sun Wukong knew there were other matters to attend to; this was the first time his master had entrusted him with a task, and he naturally wanted to do it well.

"Alright, you blockhead, let this matter be for now, we have more important things to take care of," he said, and after whispering in Zhu Bajie's ear for a bit, they both let out a series of mischievous chuckles. Soon, the door to the Heavenly Room was pushed open, and Zhu Bajie walked out first. However, following behind Zhu Bajie was not Sun Wukong but Kuzhan, the mentor who had previously taken a Supreme Rank Spirit Stone from Sun Wukong.
It was time for the Earthly Fiend Seventy-two Transformations to be used once again. On the journey to the Western Paradise, Sun Wukong's seventy-two transformations had indeed earned a lot of merit. However, Sun Wukong knew that this Earthly Fiend Seventy-two Transformations was merely a little trick and meant nothing in the eyes of many powerful beings, as there were many more sophisticated methods of transformation. The reason Sun Wukong frequently used it on the journey to the Western Paradise was because he saw it as a form of entertainment. With Sun Wukong's haste, he had realized some of the inner workings of the westward journey from the very first demon, the Black Bear Spirit.
As he met more and more demons, Sun Wukong became increasingly certain that this so-called ninety-nine difficulties of the journey to the Western Paradise was nothing more than a farce and a joke orchestrated by the Buddha and all the deities in heaven. The demons they encountered were either the mount of a Bodhisattva or the servant of an Immortal, and even more absurd was meeting the King of the Heavenly Tower's foster daughter. When Sun Wukong learned the identities of those two rat spirits, he nearly died laughing. Even if those deities wanted to back those rat spirits, they didn't have to be so ludicrous. And there was Chang'er's Jade Rabbit; even Zhu Bajie couldn't help but laugh at that time, as Zhu Bajie had fed it more than enough!
So, after understanding the truth of the Journey to the West, Sun Wukong's attitude became much more casual. Whenever he encountered a demon with some background, he couldn't be bothered to fight, would make a few gestures, then pretend to be defeated. Whoever's mount it was, he'd look for them, whoever's servant it was, he'd tell them. If he came across some with too strong a backing and he didn't want to seek them out, he'd just play around with the seventy-two transformations and then either go up to the heavens to find the Jade Emperor or down to the underworld to find the King of Hell, and if all else failed, he'd seek Bodhisattva Guanyin. Speaking of Bodhisattva Guanyin, Sun Wukong just wanted to laugh; with only a Golden Core cultivation, he had to pretend to have boundless mana. Didn't you see Guanyin Bodhisattva, when dealing with Hong Hai'er, had to borrow magic treasures everywhere and then resort to trickery to deceive others? And the scorpion spirit from the Kingdom of Women, wasn't she bold enough to sting the Tathagata? And yet, wasn't she easily subdued in the end?
Now, Sun Wukong's mindset was similar to that of the time during the journey to the Western Paradise. Only back then, Sun Wukong was too lazy to make a move and took the whole westward journey as a game. Now, however, it was because these people's cultivation and strength were too weak. If Sun Wukong really wanted to deal with them or actually made a move, it wouldn't just be the Buddha, even the Buddha Lotus Pure Land could be destroyed by him. So instead of using absolute strength to intimidate or crush these people, Sun Wukong preferred his current approach, especially since it could also serve as training for his junior brothers. Why not enjoy it?
