Rebirth in Journey to the West: Sun Wukong-Chapter 279 - : Spacetime Black Hole, Connecting to The Borderlands (Third Update)

Chapter 279: Chapter 279: Spacetime Black Hole, Connecting to The Borderlands (Third Update)

“I don’t want to be a fool!”

No one would complain about having too many magical treasures, and Sun Wukong was no exception. Just like in his previous duel with Real Man of Jade Cauldron, if it hadn’t been for the ethereal effect of the Chaos Divine Pearl, it’s hard to say who would have won. A powerful magical treasure plays a crucial role in enhancing one’s strength, especially in critical moments where it’s a matter of life and death!

With the Void-Breaking Divine Eye fully activated to the fourth phase, the Void-Breaking Starry Eyes state, Sun Wukong’s eyes gleamed with golden light as he gazed into the spacetime black hole. Under the vision of the Void-Breaking Starry Eyes, the monotonous spacetime black hole revealed distinct layers, where the pulsating black lightning was clearly the consolidation of the Space-time Laws, merely manifesting in the form of lightning.

Inside the black hole, it was no longer pitch black, but divided into areas of varying shades, each leading into a different space. Upon detailed observation, Sun Wukong confirmed that the other end of this spacetime black hole indeed led to The Borderlands; however, it was not just one region of The Borderlands but rather parts of its various regions mixed together, collectively connecting through the spacetime black hole with the space where the Ascend to Heaven Platform was located.

“No wonder Nezha and Erlang God Yang Jian said that all sorts of strange treasures would appear in the spacetime black hole!”

If it were just connecting to one region of The Borderlands, it might just be a barren area with no treasures at all, but with many regions connected like this, the various treasures bred in The Borderlands are scattered throughout, and areas with scattered treasures are bound to appear.

Could it be that most of the magical treasures in the Heavenly Court were obtained through this spacetime black hole from The Borderlands?

A thought flashed through Sun Wukong’s mind, and the more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed. Otherwise, there was no explanation for where those magical treasures, which did not exist during the Deification Era, came from in the Heavenly Court. They couldn’t have just appeared out of thin air, could they?

While Immortals and Gods could refine artifacts, as far as Sun Wukong knew, within the entire Heavenly Court, there seemed to be only a handful of people who could craft Superior Grade Acquired Spiritual Treasures; and as for Innate Spiritual Treasures, that was probably only The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord. Surely, not all the many Innate Spiritual Treasures could have been crafted by The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord alone; if so, The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord wouldn’t have to do anything else but refine artifacts all day long!

Under the gaze of the Void-Breaking Starry Eyes, Sun Wukong saw thin strands of light stretching from the Ascend to Heaven Platform toward the spacetime black hole. Clearly, the appearance of this spacetime black hole was not accidental. It manifested only after the accumulated power on the Ascend to Heaven Platform reached a peak and triggered a change in spacetime, opening the pathway to The Borderlands in the form of a spacetime black hole.

If the Ascend to Heaven Platform could do it, could Flower-Fruit Mountain’s Heaven-Piercing Tower achieve it in the future?

Sun Wukong suddenly became extremely hopeful!

Of course, these were all just beautiful conjectures. Right now, the main thing was to acquire as many treasures from this spacetime black hole as possible—the more, the better!

The Borderlands was not a place just anyone could venture into. Without reaching the level of a Heavenly Dao Saint, one simply didn’t have the capability to open a pathway through spacetime to The Borderlands. Back then, it was the Puti Patriarch who had opened the spacetime pathway for Sun Wukong. Someone like Luo Bai had stumbled into The Borderlands purely by accident.

Beyond that, The Borderlands were no benevolent place. Without genuine ability, one could forget about finding a satisfying magical treasure; there was a high chance of being trapped in there to death. Sun Wukong knew this firsthand. If not for his advent into The Borderlands and his coincidental encounter with Luo Bai, that young fella might have really ended up trapped to death in The Borderlands.

Luo Bai once had a casual chat with Sun Wukong and told him that he had nearly lost hope at that time. If he had not found a way to leave The Borderlands in another two hundred years, he would have used the Dismantling Technique while the Sword Primordial Force was still present in his body, forcefully opening the reincarnation channel with his entire body’s Sword Primordial Blood, sending his True Spirit into it for reincarnation, to avoid completely dissipating when his spiritual essence was exhausted.

If that had happened, perhaps there would be no Green Lotus Sword Immortal Luo Bai today. Of course, perhaps the Green Lotus Sword Immortal would still appear, but whether he would be called Luo Bai remained to be seen; maybe he would be Zhao Bai? Sun Bai? Or even Li Bai?

These thoughts flashed through Sun Wukong’s mind in an instant. His main focus remained on monitoring the spacetime black hole, as treasures could appear at any moment, and he couldn’t afford to miss out!

“Swish!”

A faint spatial fluctuation sounded, and a streak of firelight flashed within the spacetime black hole. The first to notice was Sun Wukong. Under the gaze of the Void-Breaking Starry Eyes, Sun Wukong saw it clearly. It was a long spear wrapped in fierce firelight, the spearhead shaped like a dragon’s mouth, with a sharp spear tip extending out from the dragon’s mouth. The entire spear, surrounded by Dao patterns, looked like a fire dragon, giving off a feeling of burning through all existence.

Most crucially, it was a Superior Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure-level Divine Weapon!

“Nezha, grab that long spear quickly!”

Sun Wukong and Erlang God Yang Jian shouted out at the same time, then exchanged a glance. Clearly, Erlang God Yang Jian had also seen the long spear!

With his Void-Breaking Starry Eyes and Erlang God Yang Jian’s Heavenly Eye Divine Power, they had both spotted the fierce flame long spear appearing from within the spacetime black hole before Nezha did. Although Nezha was a bit slower in noticing, his reaction was not slow at all. As soon as the two shouted out, Nezha immediately pushed off with his legs, jumping up from the Ascend to Heaven Platform. Wind-Fire Wheels appeared under his feet, fully resisting the forbidding aerial force as he rushed into the spacetime black hole.

Boom!

The originally calm spacetime black hole reacted, and thick black thunderbolts burst forth from the edge of the black hole, heading directly towards Nezha.

“Get out of my way!”

The Qiankun Ring materialized in his hand and he flung it at the black thunderbolt attacking from the left, while Nezha took out the Universe Bind on his other hand and swept it towards another black thunderbolt on the opposite side. His figure continued to dash towards the Fierce Flame Long Spear.

Crack!

The Qiankun Ring collided with the black thunderbolt and was knocked askew and flown out. Sun Wukong, quick as he was, shouted “Stretch!” and his arm suddenly extended to catch the Qiankun Ring falling from the sky, pulling it back. The Universe Bind, not so fortunate, was directly hit by the black thunderbolt and burst into flames, a Superior Grade Acquired Spiritual Treasure turned to ash under the assault of the black thunderbolt.

Nezha caught a glimpse of this scene, and to say it didn’t hurt was a lie. After all, it was a significant magical treasure that had accompanied him from childhood, and its destruction was undoubtedly painful. However, compared to the Fierce Flame Long Spear, the Universe Bind seemed less important. No matter what, he had to get his hands on that Fierce Flame Long Spear!

“Golden Fire Annihilation Divine Spear!”

The thunderbolts blocking his path were not limited to two; a larger network of black thunderbolts, interconnected, surged towards Nezha. He did not dare to be careless, let out a loud shout, and shook the Fire-tipped Spear to release the Golden Fire Annihilation Divine Spear attack. A sky-full of spear shadows bombarded the black thunderbolt net, tore through it with a massive booming noise, and Nezha’s figure drilled through the gap, thrusting the Fire-tipped Spear fiercely towards the Fierce Flame Long Spear.

“Cling!”

The sound of metal clashing rang out as the tip of the Fire-tipped Spear collided with the tip of the Fierce Flame Long Spear, stopping the latter, which had flashed out from the spacetime black hole and was about to escape.

Spiritual Treasures possess spirits, especially those that are Superior Grade Innate Spiritual Weapons, which even have their own sentience. The Fierce Flame Long Spear’s ferocity was provoked when Nezha’s Fire-tipped Spear intervened, the dragon mouth Dao Pattern on the spear’s head suddenly elongated and clamped onto the tip of the Fire-tipped Spear. Nezha instantly felt the spirit of the Fire-tipped Spear rapidly transferring to the Fierce Flame Long Spear, which began to devour his spear!

Crack!

Without a moment to spare, Nezha charged forward, grabbing onto the shaft of the Fierce Flame Long Spear, which felt like grabbing a red-hot iron rod, a piercing pain shooting through his palm. He groaned but did not let go. Instead, he released his right hand from the Fire-tipped Spear and grasped the Fierce Flame Long Spear with both hands.

“Wukong! Brother Yang!”

Nezha shouted loudly, all his strength focused on gripping the Fierce Flame Long Spear and resisting the burning flames on it. He had no extra effort to counter the massive pull of the spacetime black hole, and his whole figure was sucked towards it.

“Quickly!”

“Come back to me!”

Sun Wukong and Erlang God Yang Jian were already prepared. Hearing the shout, they activated the array they had set up; a beam of light extended from the array beneath their feet, shooting towards the spacetime black hole, tightly wrapping around Nezha’s waist.

Sun Wukong shouted and grabbed the light band with both hands, tugging forcefully. Erlang God Yang Jian also grabbed the band, and together, they pulled Nezha who had fallen into the gravitational pull of the spacetime black hole back out.

After distancing from the spacetime black hole, the force of the forbidden zone finally overcame the gravitational pull of the spacetime black hole. Nezha’s figure fell from mid-air, crashing onto the platform of the Ascend to Heaven Platform, grimacing with pain. However, his eyes flickered with an uncontrollable thrill— he had the Fierce Flame Long Spear in his grasp!

Of course, subduing a Superior Grade Innate Spiritual Weapon was no easy feat. In just that short encounter, Nezha’s Fire-tipped Spear had been devoured significantly by the Fierce Flame Long Spear, leaving only a small portion of the spear shaft.

But no matter, as long as he obtained the Fierce Flame Long Spear, the mission of the Fire-tipped Spear was fulfilled. Its consumption by the Fierce Flame Long Spear would only enhance the spear’s capabilities. What was crucial now was to withstand the intense flames on the Fierce Flame Long Spear and subdue it, making it recognize Nezha as its master!

“Nezha, calm your mind and infuse your essence blood into this spear. You must refine it!”

Sun Wukong instructed as he took out the Victorious Fighting Wine, opened the cork, and with a flick of his power, a stream of wine flew out from it, heading straight into Nezha’s mouth.
