Jackie Chan Adventures: I have everything I need now

Time flies by.

Western Paradise, Mount Ling, Great Thunder Temple.

The magnificent statues and the Buddha's light shone brightly. Three thousand Jiedi, five hundred Arhats, eight great Bodhisattvas, and all the Buddhas of the heavens gathered here, chanting the true scriptures, their sacred sounds resounding throughout the universe.

In the center of the main hall, Sun Wukong, Dong Sanzang, Zhu Bajie, and the White Dragon were bathed in peaceful Buddhist light, receiving the final reward for their journey.

Seated on the lotus throne is no longer the Tathagata, but the future Buddha, the present Buddha—Maitreya.

His face was adorned with a compassionate smile, and his voice was gentle yet resonant, echoing in the hearts of every living being.

"Xuanzang, the eminent monk from the East, you have traveled 108,000 li, overcoming numerous tribulations, to retrieve the true scriptures and save all sentient beings. Your merits are immeasurable. Therefore, I hereby bestow upon you the title of Sandalwood Merit Buddha."

"Sun Wukong, you are a spirit stone monkey, unruly and untamed, yet you have rendered meritorious service on the journey to the West, subduing demons and monsters, and your merits are great. Now I hereby bestow upon you the title of Victorious Fighting Buddha."

"Zhu Wuneng, you were originally the Water God of the Milky Way. Although you are greedy and foolish, you have made contributions by carrying the load. Therefore, I hereby appoint you as the Clean Altar Messenger Bodhisattva."

……

As decrees were issued, golden Buddhist light and boundless power of vows blessed everyone. The monks, including Dong Sanzang, all showed joy, put their hands together, and bowed in gratitude.

Only Sun Wukong frowned slightly.

The Victorious Fighting Buddha?

He was simply following his master's instructions in this matter.

However, I wanted to refuse, but then I thought that I had spent countless efforts on this journey, and now that I had achieved my goal, it would be enough to settle a karmic debt by having my name registered in the Buddhist community. So I decided to let it go.

Thinking of this, he nodded slightly, which was considered an agreement.

Upon seeing this, Maitreya Buddha's smile deepened. As his decree was issued, the great eon of the Journey to the West came to a complete end at this moment!
Boom!

In an instant, the Great Dao resonated in the heavens above, and endless Xuanhuang merit energy gathered into a sea, transforming into a golden pillar of light that pierced through heaven and earth, and crashed down upon Mount Ling!
The vast and profound merits of the Great Dao, refined to the extreme, were partially integrated into the fortune of Mount Ling, making the golden light of the entire Western Paradise Buddha Kingdom even brighter and its fortune as swift as a rainbow.

The other part precisely split off and poured into the bodies of Sun Wukong and the others on their journey to the West.

Under this merit, the cultivation bottlenecks of Dong Sanzang, Zhu Bajie, and others were instantly broken, and their cultivation level increased greatly.

Sun Wukong, as the greatest contributor to this great calamity, has gained the most immense merit!
That golden ocean of merit almost completely submerged him.

At that very moment, the Battle Law within his body, which had already been cultivated to the peak of the Half-Step Grand Luo Golden Immortal and was just one step away from the finish line, seemed to receive unprecedented nourishment and began to boil wildly!
"Fight! Fight! Fight!"

An indomitable and ever-growing will erupted from Sun Wukong's body.

His eyes were closed, and his mind was completely absorbed in comprehending the Great Dao.

Using supreme merit as a boat and the laws of war as oars, they launched their final assault towards the other shore of the Primordial Chaos Realm!

Click!

It was as if some invisible barrier had shattered within him!
An overwhelming pressure, far surpassing that of Quasi-Saints and Primordial Golden Immortals, and on par with Heavenly Saints, swept out from Sun Wukong, instantly enveloping the entire Mount Ling and spreading towards the Three Realms of the Primordial World!

In an instant, extraordinary phenomena appeared in the heavens and earth. Purple qi came from the east for 30,000 miles, flowers fell from the sky, and golden lotuses sprang from the ground, all celebrating the newly ascended Hunyuan Supreme!

"Congratulations, Great Sage, on achieving the supreme status of Hunyuan!"

On Mount Ling, Maitreya Buddha and all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas showed expressions of astonishment, and then bowed in reverence, their words filled with awe.

Once you achieve success, you will instantly become a supreme being!
Such a creation is extremely rare, even in the entire primordial world.

Sun Wukong slowly opened his eyes, a golden divine light flashed and disappeared, and his aura had been completely subdued, returning to its original simplicity, with no trace of his imposing power leaking out.

He raised his hand, indicating that everyone didn't need to be so polite. He was about to say something, bidding farewell to Buddhism and returning to Flower Fruit Mountain to live a carefree life.

However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred!
boom--!
A pure and extreme aura of destruction and evil suddenly rose from beneath the Lingshan Hall, instantly turning the sky full of Buddhist light into pitch black!
The demonic energy was chilling and domineering, as if it would drag the entire world into endless depravity and destruction.

A figure dressed in black robes with a cold and stern face slowly emerged from the demonic energy. His eyes were disdainful and contemptuous of all things. He was none other than the Demon Ancestor, Rahu!
"Hongjun, the game should end now!"

Luo Hou's voice wasn't loud, but it seemed to contain some kind of magic, spreading to every corner of the primordial world.

At the same time, the entire primordial world began to tremble violently!

On the shores of the East China Sea, the river of time surges forth, and from it emerges the figure of a demon god who controls the laws of time.

Amidst the ruins of Buzhou Mountain, where space itself shattered, Yangmei the Great Immortal, holding a spatial staff, smiled wryly.

Deep within the sea of ​​blood, endless killing intent coalesced, transforming into a demon god who wielded absolute power over slaughter…

One, two, ten, a hundred...

Three thousand terrifying demonic bodies, towering and upright, appeared in various parts of the primordial world. They were the three thousand chaotic demonic gods who were killed by Pangu in the creation of the world!
At this moment, they were all resurrected!
On the Moon Star, inside the Guanghan Palace, the representative of humanity, Shen Du, suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze filled with shock.

Deep within the Nine Netherworlds, the earthly cycle of reincarnation, transformed from the ancestral witch Houtu.

It also shone brightly, and for the first time, a solemn expression appeared on Houtu's compassionate face.

In the Purple Cloud Palace, the Dao Ancestor Hongjun, who was one with the Heavenly Dao and unmoved for eternity, slowly opened his indifferent and ruthless eyes, and a ripple quietly appeared.

"Destroy this world and reclaim our origin!"

"Pangu is dead, the primordial world shall perish!"

The auras of the three thousand chaotic demon gods were connected, and their earth-shattering power caused the entire primordial world to wail. The laws of heaven and earth were in chaos, and countless cracks appeared on the world's barrier!

They intend to join forces and destroy the entire prehistoric world in one fell swoop!
"presumptuous!"

At this critical moment, three majestic and supreme voices rang out simultaneously.

Within the Purple Cloud Palace, a beam of profound light, imbued with the order of the Heavenly Dao, shot out.

Beneath the Nine Netherworlds of reincarnation, a powerful force of the earth, capable of bearing the cycle of all things, surges forth.

Above the Taiyin Star, a divine light shone, gathering the beliefs of all living beings and the flame of humanity.

The forces of Heaven, Earth, and Man united like never before, transforming into a boundless giant net that instantly enveloped the entire primordial world!

"Heaven, Earth, and Man, the Primordial Great Formation, suppress!"

Hongjun's voice was cold and ruthless.

In an instant, the great formation descended, and the boundless suppressive power acted on the three thousand Chaos Demon Gods. No matter how powerful their laws were, they could not move an inch at this moment.

"Hongjun!"

Demon Ancestor Rahu was suppressed on Mount Ling. He glared in the direction of Zixiao Palace and laughed wildly, "You are also one of my Chaos Demon Gods. What are you pretending to be a savior for? Do you want to keep that thing for yourself?"

“If we destroy this primordial world, the Pangu Dao Fruit will naturally manifest, and we can both transcend it and achieve the true Great Dao!” Yang Mei Daxian also spoke leisurely, his voice piercing through the void: “Fellow Daoist Hongjun, we once made an agreement that when the Journey to the West ends, the primordial world will come to an end.”

"Now, will you also break your promise?"

Faced with the questioning, Hongjun snorted coldly, his voice carrying an unprecedented sense of determination.

"I inherited the legacy of Pangu and have taken charge of the Heavenly Dao. I am obliged to protect the order of the primordial world! My collusion with you is merely a temporary measure to lure the snakes out of their hole!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his magical power surged, and the suppressing power of the Primordial Array of Heaven, Earth and Man instantly became several times stronger!
Upon witnessing this scene, Shen Du and Hou Tu's last trace of doubt vanished, and they fully mobilized the power of humanity and earth to reinforce the great formation.

With their combined efforts, the three managed to temporarily suppress the three thousand Chaos Demons.

But everyone knows this is just a stopgap measure.

The power of three thousand demon gods is terrifying; the great formation will be broken sooner or later, and at that time, the prehistoric world will still be in danger of destruction.

Just then, from the direction of Kunlun Mountain, three streams of pure energy broke through the air, namely Laozi, Yuanshi, and Tongtian.

From the direction of the Nine Nether Blood Sea, eleven Ancestral Witches, including Dijiang, Zhurong, and Gonggong, also arrived with overwhelming malevolent energy.

Seeing this, the spokesperson for humanity, Shen Du, had a flash of insight and said urgently, "With the twelve Ancestral Witches gathered, we can set up the Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation to summon the true form of Pangu!"

"The Three Pure Ones are transformed from the primordial spirit of Pangu. If the primordial spirit is united with Pangu's, and the true body and the primordial spirit are combined, could the great god Pangu descend once again?!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's spirits lifted!
This might be the only hope!
However, Hongjun simply uttered a single word: "No."

"Why?" Houtu asked urgently.

Shen Du was also full of doubt.

Hongjun's gaze swept over everyone, and he finally revealed a shocking secret.

"When Pangu entrusted me with this task, besides taking charge of the Heavenly Dao, there was another matter: to suppress the Earthly Dao and the Human Dao, and to maintain the Heavenly Dao's supremacy."

"It is because he deduced that the day when the three paths are in balance will be the day when the Chaos God is revived."

"But fate is fickle. As the great calamity unfolded, the Earthly Path and the Human Path eventually emerged, forming the current situation where the three paths coexist, which gave them an opportunity to take advantage of the situation."

"To truly revive Pangu, the essence and blood of the Twelve Ancestral Witches and the primordial spirit of the Three Pure Ones are far from enough."

"After Pangu fell, his origin transformed into the three realms of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity in this world."

"To reunite Pangu, we three representatives must sacrifice all the power of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity that we wield, merging them into one, so that it can transform into the true Pangu Dao Fruit, allowing the Great God to reappear!"

As soon as the words fell, the whole place fell silent.

Offering the power of the three paths?

This is tantamount to giving up one's supreme status and authority, and even risking one's own death and annihilation!

It happened so fast!
"For the Father God, for the Primordial World!"

Dijiang roared without the slightest hesitation.

Houtu also resolutely broke away from control of the great formation and stood with the other eleven ancestral witches.

"The Twelve Capital Gods' Formation, rise!"

The twelve ancestral witches roared to the sky, their essence and blood burning, and twelve banners of the Heavenly Gods and Demons appeared.

In an instant, the true form of a giant, with his feet firmly planted on the ground, his head reaching the sky, his muscles bulging, and exuding an aura of endless savagery, began to slowly materialize!
Upon seeing this, the three Qings exchanged a glance, each seeing a resolute determination in the other's eyes.

"combine!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Laozi, Yuanshi, and Tongtian immediately released their primordial spirits. The three pure energies merged in the air, transforming into a pure, ancient, and profound Pangu primordial spirit containing the secrets of the creation of the world!
"go with!"

With a single thought, Pangu's primordial spirit surged into the Pangu true body that was condensing!

"It's our turn."

Shen Du looked at Hongjun and smiled calmly.

He knew that if the primordial world were truly destroyed, he would face certain death.

As for whether sacrificing everything would result in death, the gods, in the darkness, certainly believed that it wouldn't.

Then, Hongjun nodded, and the two of them, without any further hesitation, unleashed the power of Heaven and the power of Humanity that they carried without reservation!

One was the mysterious purple light that maintained the order of all things, another was the brilliant flame that carried the beliefs of all living beings, and together with the earthly reincarnation power sacrificed by Houtu, the three supreme powers representing the origin of the primordial world transformed into three streams of light and all flowed into Pangu's true body!

Om-!
The moment the three forces converged, the towering giant suddenly opened its eyes!
What kind of eyes were those? Ancient, weathered, and profound, as if they contained all the ultimate truths of the universe's birth and death, and the cycle of all things!
A shout, seemingly emanating from the beginning of chaos, resounded throughout the primordial world, shook the endless void, and even awakened the supreme Dao!

"My path has been completed!"

At this very moment, Pangu is fully resurrected!

He made a grasping motion with his right hand, and an ancient, large axe appeared out of thin air—the very axe that opened the heavens!
Facing the three thousand suppressed Chaos Gods, Pangu remained expressionless and casually swung his axe.

This axe strike had no earth-shattering momentum, no world-destroying law fluctuations, only a seemingly ordinary axe light.

However, when that axe flashed, the concepts of time, space, cause and effect, fate... all seemed to be erased.

The three thousand Chaos Demon Gods didn't even have time to utter a scream before their very existence was completely annihilated by this axe, from the past, present, and future, leaving not a trace!
At the same time, within Pangu's body, the consciousnesses of Hongjun, Shendu, and Houtu were immersed in an unprecedented and profound realm.

They felt the vastness of the Great Dao that transcended everything, and their own understanding of the Dao, like that of Pangu, was soaring at an incredible speed!

Outside, after Pangu slew the demon god with his axe, his momentum remained undiminished, and he once again cleaved towards the endless chaos beyond the primordial world.

Wherever the axe light passed, the chaotic energy was completely opened up, the earth, fire, water, and wind subsided, the pure energy rose, and the turbid energy sank. The entire territory of the primordial world was expanded billions of times, transforming into a perfect and flawless eternal world!
From then on, chaos ceased in the heavens and earth, and the Great Dao, which once existed in the world, now holds sway over heaven and earth.

In this new world, above the thirty-three heavens, a new heaven has emerged, named: the Great Luo Heaven.

Inside the Great Luo Heaven Palace, Hongjun, Shendu, and Houtu sat cross-legged, their bodies radiating Daoist energy as they discussed the Dao with each other. Their auras had already transcended the Primordial Chaos and reached an ineffable realm.

Below, the Three Pure Ones, the Twelve Ancestral Witches, and others each performed their duties, maintaining order in this newly born world, where everything was thriving.

Inside the palace, Shen Du's gaze suddenly shifted slightly, as if looking into the void, his eyes piercing through layers of world barriers.

Ultimately, it landed deep in space on a lonely, rotating, azure planet.

There, a familiar cause and effect seemed to exist.

A slight smile appeared on his lips as he murmured to himself.

"So, that's where the story began." (End of Chapter)
