Great Demon Sun Wukong-Chapter 704 - 645 Ghost Tathagata_2

Watching Zhu Bajie clutching the Thunder Fire Scorching Flame Cannon and scurrying to another Spirit Stone Mountain, then munching on the spirit stones just like before, Sun Wukong really didn't know what to say. This Bajie had given him too many surprises. He originally thought that Bajie would only be eligible to attempt a bond with the Heavenly Stele when his cultivation reached the Dao Patterns, but he hadn't anticipated that Bajie, with only a Dao Transformation cultivation, could already become the master of the World Suppressing Stele, and even unintentionally refined the Thunder Fire Scorching Flame Cannon into his life-bound Magic Treasure. It was truly too dramatic.

The people whom Bajie was supposed to be practicing against, were instead taken care of by the Thunder Fire Scorching Flame Cannon as if it were a game. Yet, this also very much suited Bajie's character; if he could be lazy, he absolutely wouldn't lift a finger. Sun Wukong realized that many things were gradually getting out of his control, and recently, he had felt a strong force of destiny. It seemed like a powerful force of destiny was propelling the development of his master, White Dragon, Old Sand, and Bajie. Although Sun Wukong was somewhat worried, it seemed that this was not a bad thing for them. Only his master's situation was somewhat special, but it probably wasn't a big issue.

There would definitely be no problem on White Dragon's side, and Bajie's situation had been resolved even more thoroughly, so next, it was time to check on Tathagata. His figure disappeared once again, and this time, he appeared right before Tathagata. However, standing before Tathagata was another person, Ji Meng. Ji Meng's cultivation level was now that of a Five Patterns Supreme. Originally, with his own talents, it would have been impossible to reach such a cultivation level, but thanks to the purifying capabilities of the Thunder Pond, the impurities in his essence were completely cleansed, thus greatly enhancing his talents. Later, Ji Meng and Ying Zhao consumed many Heaven and Earth Treasures, and with Ji Meng's current talents, he was definitely capable of cultivating to Nine Patterns Supreme.

After Tathagata entered the Patrolling Celestial World, Ji Meng, seeing that there was no issue on Bajie's side, promptly flew to Tathagata's location. Ji Meng didn't harbor great hatred towards Tathagata but certainly couldn't be considered friendly either. So at this moment, the two were confronting each other. After Sun Wukong appeared, Tathagata only glanced at Sun Wukong before focusing all his attention on Ji Meng. He could clearly sense that Ji Meng, standing before him, had far greater cultivation than Sun Wukong.

"Sun Monkey, is this really your final trump card?" Sun Wukong was initially taken aback, then he realized that Tathagata had misunderstood. He believed that Sun Wukong had brought him to this place to let Ji Meng defeat him. Indeed, visibly, Sun Wukong's cultivation was at the Intermediate Grade of Dao Transformation, while Ji Meng was a Five Patterns Supreme, a chasm as wide as heaven and earth. Sun Wukong found it somewhat amusing, yet seeing Tathagata's composed expression, suddenly felt a stir in his heart.

"Yes, this is my ultimate trump card, with your power, you definitely cannot defeat him. Tathagata, if you kneel and beg me for mercy first, I might consider sparing your life." Sun Wukong said this to agitate Tathagata. Because with his Heaven and Earth Fire Eyes, he noticed something changing about Tathagata. So he did have his own trump card, huh.

"Haha, shortsighted as a mouse, always shortsighted, do you think just a Five Patterns Supreme can kill me? Sun Wukong, you're still so ignorant. You don't know how I've survived all these years, so you truly don't know how powerful I've become!"

As soon as Tathagata spoke, Sun Wukong was startled. How did Tathagata know Ji Meng had the cultivation of a Five Patterns Supreme? Tathagata shouldn't be able to see through Ji Meng's cultivation, for only if one's cultivation surpasses another can they see through the latter's cultivation. Could it be that Tathagata's true cultivation had surpassed Ji Meng's, exceeded that of a Five Patterns Supreme? How was that possible, and how could he still exist in an Intermediate World?

Just then, Tathagata suddenly let out a wail of agony, and his entire aura changed, the initially sacred Buddhist aura instantly turned into a grim ghostly Qi. His pupils transformed into skulls, and his robe became blood-red as if steeped in countless fresh blood. Tathagata's appearance began to change too, with two ghost head tattoos on his face and many little skulls appearing on his head.

"Before I came here, my name was Ghost Tathagata!"

"Heh, interesting, this is really interesting. Who would have thought that the Tathagata Buddha, who once commanded the winds and clouds, would end up like this? Ha ha, Ghost Tathagata, is it? The name still carries some grandeur. Ji Meng, I'll leave it to you. Any problem with that?" At this moment, transformed into a demon, the Tathagata, whose cultivation was still at the One Pattern Dao Patterns Realm, had all his once grand Buddha's power turned into bleak ghostly Qi, exuding a chilling sensation to anyone who perceived him. Yet, to Sun Wukong, this was nothing remarkable.

Ghost, what is a ghost? Simply put, it is nothing more than a soul that has not perished after death. Although the vast majority of ghost cultivators are immune to a certain degree of physical attacks due to their spiritual bodies, they also have their own limitations. Moreover, Tathagata had not become a pure ghost cultivator, he still had a physical body, it's just that the Buddha's power within had turned into ghostly Qi. This version of Tathagata might possess some strange techniques, but with such a vast disparity in cultivation, some methods could be completely disregarded.
