Rebirth in Journey to the West: Sun Wukong-Chapter 742 - 743 Zhen Yuanzi Breaks Through (Third Update!)

"Can it still be remedied?"

Zhen Yuanzi’s eyes lit up, he was well aware of the situation surrounding the establishment of the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court at Flower-Fruit Mountain. At that time, the entire Three Realms knew about it; the Buddhist Sect and the Heavenly Court launched a full-scale assault against the Flower-Fruit Mountain Demon Cult, yet despite this immense pressure, Flower-Fruit Mountain managed to establish the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court.

Zhen Yuanzi was very clear that in such a situation, Sun Wukong certainly wouldn’t have been able to take him into consideration, and while this did make him feel somewhat depressed, he couldn’t blame Sun Wukong.

Or more precisely, he didn’t dare to blame him!

After all, Sun Wukong was now the Heavenly Emperor of the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court, which was undeniably the number one force within the Three Realms. The fact that Sun Wukong remembered their agreement and came to remedy the situation at such a time touched Zhen Yuanzi deeply.

"Of course it can be done!"

Sun Wukong smiled and nodded affirmatively, "The Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court has just been established and is still expanding. It’s quite simple for your Mount Wanshou’s Dragon Veins to join the ley lines of Flower-Fruit Mountain. Although the Merit and Destiny bestowed by the Heavenly Dao has largely come to an end, the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court still receives some Merit and Destiny with every expansion. I, Old Sun, still have some Merit and Destiny left over. If you need it, Old Brother Zhen Yuanzi, I can give it to you!"

Zhen Yuanzi looked at Sun Wukong steadily and suddenly half-knelt on the ground: "Wukong, my brother, I will never forget this great kindness and great virtue. Please accept my bow!"

"What are you doing, Old Brother Zhen Yuanzi? Get up quickly!" frёeωebɳovel.com

Sun Wukong hurriedly reached out to help Zhen Yuanzi up, "When we became brothers, I, Old Sun, promised to help you break free from the restrictions of Mount Wanshou’s Dragon Veins. Now I am simply fulfilling that promise."

"Wukong, my brother, what do I need to do?"

"Nothing at all, just keep a true heart and don’t resist."

Sun Wukong paused and then added, "Old Brother Zhen Yuanzi, have all the disciples in your temple come out. The transfer of the Dragon Veins will affect them shortly."

Zhen Yuanzi nodded and called out all the disciples from Wuzhuang Temple, who flew up into the clouds.

"Rise!"

Standing mid-air, Sun Wukong was like an Emperor of the Nine Heavens. He reached towards Mount Wanshou and the entire mountain range immediately trembled violently. Huge cracks appeared at the base of the mountain, and eventually, the whole range separated from the earth and soared into the sky like a huge dragon, coiling around Sun Wukong.

"Old Brother Zhen Yuanzi, let’s go!"

Sun Wukong nodded to Zhen Yuanzi and turned to fly in the direction of the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court, with Zhen Yuanzi and his disciples following behind.

Half a day later, at the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court.

The Mount Wanshou Dragon Veins were embedded into the mountain ranges of the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court, becoming the tenth Dragon Vein of Flower-Fruit Mountain. It was situated at the very heart of the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court, opposite the Dragon Vein where the Water Curtain Cave Heaven was located.

As the Mount Wanshou range merged with the Dragon Veins of the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court, the entire mountain also transformed, splitting into numerous smaller floating mountain ranges that hovered around the Water Curtain Cave Heaven.

Chunks of rock began to float up, forming floating stone steps that connected the Water Curtain Cave Heaven with the Mount Wanshou range.

Wisps of ethereal qi began to materialize within the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court, absorbing the nature’s spiritual energy from within the Three Realms Space and gradually forming layers upon layers of space, much like the Human Heavenly Court was divided into the First Layer of Heaven, Second Layer of Heaven, Third Layer of Heaven…

In total, there were Nine Heavens.

The Water Curtain Cave Heaven was situated within the Ninth Layer, equivalent to the Heavenly Palace within the Nine Heavens of the Heavenly Court. However, the difference was that the Ninth Layer was already the highest level within the Demon Clan’s Heaven Realm.

Thread by thread, Merit and Destiny descended from the firmament above, falling towards the Heaven Realm. Sun Wukong stretched out his hand to guide them, and these strands of Merit and Destiny promptly flew towards Zhen Yuanzi, who had been waiting nearby, and entered through his brow.

"Brother Zhen Yuanzi, hurry up and absorb this Merit and Destiny to sever the connection with Mount Wanshou’s Dragon Veins! If it’s not enough, say the word, and I, Old Sun, will give you more!"

Sun Wukong said to Zhen Yuanzi in a deep voice. Zhen Yuanzi nodded, not wasting any words, and simply sat cross-legged in mid-air, beginning to absorb the Merit and Destiny to build his foundation and cut off the link with Mount Wanshou’s Dragon Veins.

An unusual aura began to emanate from Zhen Yuanzi’s body. Initially, Sun Wukong’s expression was quite indifferent, but it gradually changed as Zhen Yuanzi’s aura underwent massive transformations, evolving from a Slaying One Corpse Merit Saint towards a higher realm. Vast amounts of Immortal Spiritual Qi from all directions converged towards him and were ingested like a whale swallowing the sea.

"Brother Zhen Yuanzi, you’re about to make a breakthrough! No, this isn’t a normal breakthrough; it’s a direct ascent by two levels! Impressive!"

Above Zhen Yuanzi’s head, three figures appeared. The first was the Good Corpse, extremely solid, while the other two, the Evil Corpse and the Desire Corpse, originally very ethereal, were rapidly becoming substantial. It looked as if he was going to simultaneously extricate the Evil Corpse and Desire Corpse!

After a brief moment of astonishment, Sun Wukong laughed. Zhen Yuanzi’s performance was indeed surprising, yet it was unexpected and within reason.

The Third Infinite Great Tribulation had begun a long time ago, and the Heavenly Dao Laws of the Three Realms had already changed for nearly a thousand years. However, Zhen Yuanzi’s cultivation hadn’t made the slightest progress, presumably because it was restrained by the Dragon Veins of Mount Wanshou.

Now that Mount Wanshou’s Dragon Veins had become one of the Dragon Veins of the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court and Zhen Yuanzi had received Merit and Destiny bestowed by the Heavenly Dao, as well as the portion Sun Wukong had transferred to him, the connection with Mount Wanshou’s Dragon Veins was severed.

With the shackles removed, Zhen Yuanzi no longer faced any restrictions. His cultivation had been suppressed for so many years, so it was quite normal for him to soar to great heights now, wasn’t it?

Zhen Yuanzi cultivated arduously for three days and three nights before he finally stopped. The Evil Corpse and Desire Corpse above his head had both solidified, and his cultivation officially stepped into the Slaying Three Corpses Merit Saint Realm. Next, he only needed to Unite the Three Corpses with the Dao to reach the Primordial Taiji Da Luo Gold Immortal Realm!

"Congratulations, congratulations! Brother Zhen Yuanzi, you’ve ascended by two whole ranks at once!"

Sun Wukong flew over to Zhen Yuanzi and congratulated him with a smile.

"This is all thanks to you, Brother Wukong!"

Full of joy and gratitude, Zhen Yuanzi said, "After so many years, I can finally break free from the constraints of Mount Wanshou’s Dragon Veins!"

"Brother Zhen Yuanzi, do you have any plans for the future?"

"Plans? I plan to join the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court. I wonder, Brother Wukong, would you welcome me?"

"Welcome! Of course, you’re welcome! Old Sun has been hoping for this!"

Sun Wukong laughed heartily, "Your Wuzhuang Temple can still be on Mount Wanshou; everything will be just like before, the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court won’t interfere!"
