Journey to the West: Sun Wukong's Advice System
Chapter 124: Shouldn’t Be Like This

Chapter 124: Chapter 124: Shouldn’t Be Like This

The monk wearing a dark golden Kasaya was, of course, one of Lu Ya’s Three Corpses Incarnation.

When the monk was slashed in two by the Golden Jiao Scissors, Lu Ya’s presence evidently weakened greatly. He was furious, yet he had no intention of lingering in battle. Wrapped in darkness, he transformed into a long rainbow and disappeared without a trace.

"This damned crow, flies so fast!" Zhao Gongming swore, but it was some consolation that he had snipped away one of Lu Ya’s Three Corpses Incarnations.

A Quasi-Saint adept at fleeing, truly wasn’t that easy to kill.

"There’s another one." Zhao Gongming turned his attention to a distant point where another of Lu Ya’s malevolent corpse incarnations remained.

But the Wealth God only glanced over before starting to laugh, for there was no need for him to take action anymore.

On the other side, the black-clad Lu Ya also took the opportunity to attempt escape.

"Old crow, where do you think you’re fleeing to!" Sun Wukong, after slaying the Six-Eared Macaque and stabilizing his stance, drew his bow and loosed arrows—nine consecutive Ruyi Divine Arrows shot forth with great force.

The black-clad Lu Ya’s strength was no longer what it had been before, having already been greatly diminished by the Eight Extremes Soul Extinguishing Formation; and with the loss of Lu Ya’s obsession corpse, his strength plummeted even more.

Moreover, he had just witnessed the Six-Eared Macaque vanish into smoke and mist, and not having seen through the mystery, assumed Sun Wukong’s arrows possessed some special attribute, which left him deeply frightened.

"Gua!" In a panic, he transformed into a black three-legged crow and desperately emitted rainbow light, finally turning into a long rainbow, traveling thousands of miles away in an instant.

But the Heart Arrow Technique did not care about distance; the Ruyi Divine Arrows, linking nine stars in a chain, crossed the vast emptiness just as easily.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The black-clad Lu Ya was hit consecutively, each Ruyi Divine Arrow carrying the highly focused power of the fourfold archery Laws, which then exploded thunderously, blasting the three-legged crow to pieces before it could continue to flee.

"Sun Wukong!"

All that was left was an enraged roar as the black-clad Lu Ya also turned to ash.

Lu Ya had never imagined that his malevolent corpse incarnation would fall at the hands of Sun Wukong.

Previously, he indeed had intended to spare Sun Wukong’s life, for he knew that the Buddha Sect was plotting the eastward spread of Buddhist Law.

Ever since the Great Thunder Sound Temple learned of Sun Wukong’s existence from Ksitigarbha, the Buddha Sect had earmarked this stone monkey as one of the two core individuals for the journey to obtain scriptures.

But now, with Sun Wukong’s strength reaching such heights and having secured a high position in the Heavenly Court, would he still be willing to be the scripture seeker in the future?

Lu Ya was unable to foresee the outcome; all he knew was that after this battle, his standing in the Buddha Sect would likely plummet.

...

At the moment the Kun Peng demon teacher made a move against Sun Wukong, not only were the Six-Eared Macaque and Lu Ya taking the chance to flee, but Moluo also did not miss this golden opportunity.

"Die!" Moluo let out a ferocious roar, his body bathed in Demonic Flame, Demonic Qi billowing to the skies as if ready to fight to the death, he lunged at the Martial Emperor.

But just as he lunged forward, he transformed into countless blood-colored demon shadows, scattering in all directions.

"Thinking of leaving?" Martial Emperor’s eyes brimmed with divine light, seeing through it all, his sword light sweeping out like a raging flood in all directions.

At the same time, Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao were not idle either. The two fairies wielded their swords, with sword light falling like rain, covering the entire sea area.

The myriad blood-colored demon shadows were swept away by the deluge and drowned by the sword light.

"It shouldn’t be like this; my fate shouldn’t be like this!" Moluo’s resentful roars echoed in the void, unwilling to accept his end.

He still had many things undone, had not yet resurrected Axin, nor had he made the world see clearly, nor had he made the world turn according to his will.

All this was just beginning!

Martial Emperor, Qiong Xiao, and Bi Xiao heard Moluo’s furious roar but remained unmoved.

When all settled, not a single demon shadow or trace of Demonic Qi could be seen in the land of the North Sea.

A Demon Lord had fallen before achieving his grand ambitions.

The Martial Emperor was not reassured, so he led his troops in a thorough search of the entire North Sea region, confirming that Moluo had left no trace behind.

Wukong did not go to search for traces of the Six-Eared Macaque, for the advice system had already given him a reminder.

[Congratulations on completing the suggestion—eliminate the Six-Eared Macaque, you’ve obtained a seventh-tier treasure chest.]

Besides that, he also completed three other suggestions related to this demon subjugation.

[Congratulations on completing the suggestion—fight vigorously in the battle against demons, you’ve obtained a sixth-tier treasure chest.]

[Congratulations on completing the suggestion—caution is paramount, never underestimate your enemy, you’ve obtained a fifth-tier treasure chest.]

[Congratulations on completing the suggestion—call for reinforcements, at least invite two Quasi-Saints, you’ve obtained a sixth-tier treasure chest.]

The latter two suggestions were straightforward; the suggestion to fight vigorously was deemed complete by the advice system only after he knew reinforcements were coming and went ahead with the Martial Emperor into the North Sea territory, sneaking into Youdu Mountain.

At this moment, Wukong felt incredibly satisfied and joyous.

He first expressed his thanks to Zhao Gongming, Yun Xiao, Qiong Xiao, and Bi Xiao, as all were summoned by him.

"There’s no need for thanks, just call me Old Zhao if something like this happens again," Zhao Gongming laughed heartily.

"Brother, don’t speak nonsense, have you forgotten the lesson from back then?" Yun Xiao lightly scolded, "We are not afraid of anything now, but let’s not drag Marshal Sun into it."

"Fairy Yunxiao, rest assured, Wukong is not one to act rashly," Wukong said, clasping his hands in a bow.

"We are confident in how Marshal Sun does things," Yun Xiao nodded, "With these matters resolved, my siblings and I shall take our leave for now."

"Wukong, when you have the chance, come play with us in the mortal realm," Bi Xiao added.

"Hehe, sure, sure," Wukong said, scratching his head with a smile.

The four siblings came swiftly and left just as quickly, notifying the Martial Emperor before disappearing into the vast North Sea.

And with the end of the great battle, the North Sea region, shrouded in dense fog throughout the year, underwent a dramatic transformation; the fog had completely dispersed, and those islands and solitary mountains also sank into the sea, leaving only the black water stirring up waves incessantly.

The soldiers of the Earthly Foulness Division, led by commanders such as Yuan Hong and Deng Jiugong, eradicated many disciples of the demon cult, and then went on to exterminate those ancient demons that had been disturbed.

Although they did not completely wipe out the ancient demons as they did the disciples of the demon cult, they eliminated the possibility that the demons would bring chaos to the Three Realms.

...

Inside the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, there was silence; the immortals had witnessed everything that transpired in the North Sea region through the Haotian Mirror.

They were first shocked by the revival of the Great Ancient Kun Peng, wondering who would have expected this legendary ancient power to be hiding in its own lair.

Then, Wukong pointed out that the Kun Peng was merely bluffing, and the immortals realized that this ancient power was indeed seriously wounded and had not yet recovered.

But what followed astonished them even more.

When Daoist Lu Ya fled the scene, he used a Three Corpses Incarnation to stop Zhao Gongming’s attack from the Golden Jiao scissors.

Everyone clearly saw the appearance of that Three Corpses Incarnation, not the black-clothed Daoist who had appeared at the beginning, but a middle-aged monk wearing a dark golden kasaya.

More importantly, a dark nest emitting a brilliant golden radiance appeared out of nowhere.

This completely confirmed what Wukong had said before descending to the lower realm.

After his Divine Enthronement, Daoist Lu Ya had joined the Western Buddha Sect, becoming the Buddha of the Great Sun Tathagata and also taking another name, the Wuchao Zen Master!

Now he was conspiring with the demon cult, attempting to open the Eye of the North Sea and bring chaos to the Three Realms!
