In the beginning, he was ranked alongside An Shigeng as a spoiled brat.

As a wisp of golden light descended, the leading sword immortal below was instantly enveloped within it.

A moment later, the golden light dissipated, revealing the sword immortal clad in a purple-gold jade crown, white armor, and red robes, enveloped in a misty, ethereal aura...

At the same time, he holds a sword in one hand and a command flag in the other, and can summon the seven great star lords of the East to protect him in front of the palace.

"This disciple thanks the Abbot!"

Everyone was greatly shocked, never expecting that the young sword master could actually be granted the title of immortal lord.

Moreover, the conferred status is extremely high; the guardian deities under the Donghua Emperor's Palace are also among the righteous gods in the celestial realm.

"Shaoyang, you are also one of the earliest cultivators to follow me."

Although you did not charge into battle like Shao Hua, your management of the Xuanzhen Temple has been remarkably effective. Today, I hereby bestow upon you the title of Venerable Shaoyang Wuji, to oversee the merits and demerits of the disciples of the Xuanmen sect in the mortal realm…”

···

Golden rays descended from the sky, and the imperial edict resounded throughout the Xuanzhen Temple across the four continents.

There are eight principal gods and thirty deputy gods in total, while the others are in charge of the celestial realm, enriching the foundation of the Donghua Imperial Palace.

After all, these disciples of Xuanzhen Temple are considered one of our own, and their aptitude is also quite good. Even if they don't reach the Taiyi realm in the future, they are at least at the Celestial Immortal realm at present.

This investiture greatly boosted the morale of all the disciples of Xuanzhen Temple.

Unexpectedly, they achieved perfect merit and actually entered the heavenly realm.

Most importantly, the relationship between Emperor Donghua and Xuanzhen Temple is not merely that of a side hall worshipper; the young swordsman holding the immortal scroll clearly indicates his extraordinary status.

Otherwise, anyone holding a celestial scroll could bestow titles upon all the gods.

Bang!

At the same time that a group of immortals and gods were being conferred titles at Xuanzhen Temple, a monkey was also born at the foot of Five Elements Mountain.

Amidst the collapse of mountains and the cracking of the earth, a golden light pierced through layers of clouds and disappeared into the highest heavens.

The monkey went to Flower Fruit Mountain the moment it was born.

Over the years, although Sun Wukong was out of touch with the world, he had heard of the Six-Eared Macaque's reputation.

In Flower Fruit Mountain, the Six-Eared Macaque served as both the Great Monkey General of the Empire, suppressing the land, and the Handsome Monkey King, leading all the demons.

The seventy-two demon kings of Huaguo Mountain can be considered the number one demon force in the four continents.

It can be said that at this point, the Six-Eared Macaque had achieved both fame and fortune, and his merits were complete.

Since the Six-Eared Macaque impersonated Sun Wukong, the merits of his actions cannot be attributed to him. Moreover, the Six-Eared Macaque still faces a crucial tribulation that he has not yet overcome.

Therefore, when the Six-Eared Macaque became famous throughout the Three Realms, even the monkeys suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain had heard of the name of the Handsome Monkey King of Flower Fruit Mountain.

The first thing Sun Wukong did after emerging was naturally to settle accounts with the Six-Eared Macaque who had impersonated him.

However, as soon as Sun Wukong arrived at Flower Fruit Mountain, he found monkeys running rampant in the forest and demons raging in the mountain streams. Especially on the summit of Flying Peak, a magnificent palace stood tall, with guards every five steps and sentries every ten steps. Countless demons gathered in the city, and the demonic aura soared to the sky.

This is the City of Ten Thousand Demons, the home of the Six-Eared Macaque.

The City of Ten Thousand Demons is home to countless demons, guarded by four great demon kings: the Crimson-Armored Tiger King, the Three-Headed Flood Dragon, the Queen of Ten Thousand Demons, and the White Ape Demon King!

These four demon kings were all as powerful as the Macaque King and the Yu Rong King back then. Even if Sun Wukong didn't defeat them in several hundred rounds, he wouldn't be able to. Let alone the four demon kings working together.

As for the Six-Eared Macaque?

For years, the Six-Eared Macaque has been away, serving as the Great General of the Imperial Monkey King, suppressing the Eastern Continent.

Several times, the Six-Eared Macaque even tried to emulate Chonglou of yesteryear and invade Jambudvipa, but was blocked by the Buddhist sect and had to give up.

Forcing a breakthrough would only lead to widespread death and destruction, which is not his goal.

"Greetings, General? No, you're Sun Wukong!"

When the Red Demon and the others saw Sun Wukong on the throne, they were initially respectful, but then they realized that Sun Wukong was not the Six-Eared Macaque.

The Six-Eared Macaque's centuries of bloodshed far surpassed Sun Wukong's ferocity, much like the difference between a general and a chivalrous hero.

Chapter 138 The Deal with Sun Wukong

"You know me, Old Sun, and you also know that the monkey is a fake?"

Sun Wukong glanced at the astonished Red-Armored Tiger King, a fierce and murderous look flashing across his face before he fixed his gaze on the Red-Armored Tiger King.

Meanwhile, the demon kings were also surprised by Sun Wukong's birth and silently surrounded him.

For a moment, the atmosphere inside the hall became extremely quiet.

Even if Sun Wukong was foolish, he knew that the major demon kings all knew that the monkey was an imposter, and that the invisible aura he exuded suggested that the strength of the major demon kings was probably no less than his own.

Not to mention the mysterious and unpredictable counterfeiters.

“Sun Wukong, the general is not on Flower Fruit Mountain at the moment, and the general has never impersonated you.”

When the general appeared at Flower Fruit Mountain, his strength was no less than yours, and his appearance was extremely similar, so the monkeys thought he was you who had gone missing.

The general took pity on the monkeys of Flower Fruit Mountain and couldn't bear to see them being bullied, so he stayed to protect them, which is a great act of kindness.

Otherwise, when you return, you'll probably see Flower Fruit Mountain with hardly any monkeys left.

"Now, Flower Fruit Mountain is teeming with life, ruling over the demons of the East. How could you, a mere stable boy, compare?"

The three-headed dragon spoke with disdain, almost causing Sun Wukong to lose his temper.

But the other demon kings all nodded. If it weren't for the appearance of the Six-Eared Macaque after the Monkey King's havoc in the Heavenly Palace, Flower Fruit Mountain would probably have become history long ago, and it wouldn't have the momentum it has today.

However, Sun Wukong is not one to reason.

If it weren't for the combined forces of the four demon kings, which were extremely disadvantageous to him, he would have already made his move.

As for the imposter, Sun Wukong didn't think he was no match for him. His confidence from causing havoc in the Heavenly Palace made him extremely disdainful of everyone except for the Jade Emperor and Buddha.

"Stopping someone else's nest is outrageous! A thief is a thief!"

"What a joke, who's the thief here?"

You monkey, when you were guarding the Peach Garden, you stole and ate all the peaches in the garden; later you sneaked into the Tushita Palace and made a great disturbance in the Heavenly Court, which brought disaster to Flower Fruit Mountain, causing one-tenth of the creatures on Flower Fruit Mountain to perish.

"Having just been born, how dare they come here and try to steal the show?"

As the four demon kings mocked him, Sun Wukong's originally monkey face turned even redder, as if dripping blood.

"Infinite Heavenly Lord!"

Just as they were about to make their move, a figure slowly emerged from the darkness.

The newcomer was only sixteen years old, dressed in a dark blue Taoist robe, carrying a golden divine sword on his back, and with a black gourd hanging at his waist, looking like a wandering swordsman.

However, everyone knew that the newcomer was no ordinary person, and some even showed signs of apprehension.

"Sword Master!"

The Four Demon Kings, who had suppressed the Eastern Continent for five hundred years, had naturally seen this young Sword Master.

Although they had never fought each other, as the head of Xuanzhen Temple, his strength was so great that no one doubted that he could slay demons and monsters for them.

"Great Sage Sun, we meet again."

"Have we met before?"

"No, Donghua Emperor, Jade Frontier War God, are you that young Taoist's third incarnation?"

Looking at the somewhat familiar face of the young swordsman, Sun Wukong suddenly realized something, and his expression immediately became extremely solemn.

The four demon kings were also frightened. What kind of beings were Donghua Dijun and Yujiang War God?

One is a Heavenly Venerable who rules the Eastern Heavenly Realm, and the other is famous throughout the Three Realms for his combat prowess. According to Sun Wukong, these are all incarnations of the Heavenly Venerable. The young Sword Venerable in front of him is the third incarnation.

If such news were to spread throughout the Three Realms, wouldn't it be utterly shocking?

"That's right, I am Chunyangzi's third incarnation - Sword Master."

Hiss...

Upon hearing the words of the young sword master, everyone gasped in shock.

Chunyangzi?

Although the four demon kings did not know who Chunyangzi was?

However, they knew that if Emperor Donghua and the Jade Frontier War God were truly incarnations of Chunyangzi, then they were definitely powerful figures, and beings that instilled fear in everyone.

At this moment, Sun Wukong couldn't help but look at the seemingly indifferent young sword master, revealing his wariness:

"This is Flower and Fruit Mountain, what are you doing here?"

"Amitabha Buddha, I am merely reminding the Great Sage that the Monkey King's strength was once equal to yours. After five hundred years, the Monkey King's strength is at least slightly superior to yours!"

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong narrowed his eyes, and the four demon kings also smiled disdainfully.

The young sword master's words are absolutely true; after all, no one can remain unchanged for five hundred years.

The monkey, living under the Five Elements Mountain, ate lead pellets and drank molten copper. It would be good enough if it didn't retreat, let alone remain strong.

"However, I have a way to raise the Great Sage's strength to another level, and there are no drawbacks, only benefits and no harm!"

The young swordsman finally revealed his purpose, even though Sun Wukong and the four demon kings all had their divine eyes flashing.

Improving one's strength without any drawbacks is even entirely beneficial and brings countless advantages!

·········Requesting flowers·· 0

Even Sun Wukong couldn't believe such a promise.

However, the major demon kings sensed that if the young sword master was truly like Emperor Donghua and the God of War of Jade Frontier, he might actually be able to achieve great things.

But why would the young swordsman help Sun Wukong?

The Red-Armored Tiger King and the Three-Headed Flood Dragon are the four guardians under the Jade Emperor. Now they are ordered to follow the Six-Eared Macaque. It is clear that the Jade Emperor is closer to the Six-Eared Macaque. I wonder why the young Sword Master is helping Sun Wukong.

"what way?"

"The Great Sage has just been born, and no matter how much his strength increases, his foundation will be unstable."

But external forces are different; they are a method of borrowing a path.

I have a way to strengthen the Great Sage's Ruyi Jingu Bang (Ruyi's Wish-Fulfilling Needle), increasing its power by at least 30%. Furthermore, it will be immune to all magic and able to break through all magic with sheer force.

......... .. 0

Even if the Great Sage's strength increases in the future, the Ruyi Divine Needle Iron will not only remain powerful, but will also unleash even greater might.

The young swordsman's words immediately shocked the demons.

Even Sun Wukong looked at the young sword master with suspicion, his eyes revealing a mixture of doubt and longing.

If true, this would be a method with no downsides and only benefits.

"In that case, I will trouble you, Venerable One."

"Hehe, Great Sage, don't play dumb. I can strengthen the Ruyi Divine Needle Iron for you, but you also need to do something for me."

But don't worry, Great Sage, this is not a difficult matter for you.

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong's chuckling smile froze instantly.

It knows that there is no such thing as a free lunch.

If it were anyone else, they could get something for nothing without having to do anything, but this person is different.

The three incarnations are all extraordinary; they take the benefits but do nothing. Sun Wukong believed that the Jade Emperor could teach him how to be a monkey in no time.

Moreover, the opponent's unfathomable scheming made Sun Wukong have no doubt about how terrifying the opponent was.

"What is it?"

Let me make this clear first: anything beyond my capabilities, I, Old Sun, cannot handle.

"Naturally, on his journey to the west, the Great Sage will meet a Zen master sitting in a bird's nest."

This Zen master is a Buddhist saint, and he will mock the Great Sage as a "thousand-year-old stone monkey." At that time, the Great Sage will use his staff to knock down a few branches from the bird's nest. As fellow Buddhists, and knowing that the other party is in the wrong, they will not hold it against the Great Sage.

All the path requires are these few branches.
