Rebirth in Journey to the West: Sun Wukong
Chapter 799 - 800: The Mighty Eye of the Cangtian (3rd Update!)

Puti Patriarch wore a bitter smile and said, "As both of you have seen, the attack from the Cauldron of Heaven’s Eye is relentless. Although we can hold it off for now, getting close seems extremely difficult, and who knows whether the Cauldron of Heaven’s Eye has other means of attack?"

So far, the Cauldron of Heaven’s Eye had only emitted the Five Elements Destruction Light, without revealing any other attack methods. But the Five Elements Destruction Light alone was incredibly formidable—it should be known that during the time when the leader of the Battle Clan challenged the Cauldron of Heaven’s Eye, a single beam had cleaved him into smithereens, leaving no bone or corpse behind.

"No matter how difficult, we must try! If we give up without even trying, then the Three Realms truly have no hope!"

The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord said in a deep voice, "Leader of Tongtian, the task of offense falls to you. We will support you with all our might; you needn’t worry about anything else. Just concentrate all your strength on the Sword Qi attack of the Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation."

"Exactly! I will support you with all my might. The Nine-Colored Divine Light will enhance the destructive power of the Sword Qi. Whether we can succeed or not now depends on you!"

Puti Patriarch’s expression also firmed, as he said to Leader of Tongtian in a serious tone.

Leader of Tongtian suddenly felt the pressure mount, as if all the burdens had converged upon him.

However, now was not the time to shrink back. If he retreated, then the Three Realms would truly have no future!

"That brat Wukong, he’s nowhere to be seen at a time like this. If only he could make a breakthrough, we wouldn’t have to deal with all this trouble!"

Leader of Tongtian complained to himself, but he could only focus his mind and fully control the Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation.

The three worked together, fending off the ceaseless Five Elements Destruction Light inch by inch as they slowly approached the Cauldron of Heaven’s Eye in the firmament above.

Inside the Great Thunder Sound Temple of Western Heaven Spiritual Mountain,

"Ancestral Buddha, are you really not going to help them? It seems quite difficult for The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord and the others to slay the Cauldron of Heaven’s Eye!" Maitreya Buddha asked, addressing the Tathagata Buddha seated on the lotus throne. He had been holding back this question for a long time but ultimately couldn’t restrain himself any longer.

The Battle to Open the Sky was not just about the The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord and the two others; it was a matter of the entire Three Realms’ safety! If The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord and his companions failed, including Maitreya Buddha himself, it was feared no one in the Three Realms could escape the fate of being purged by the Heavenly Dao!

Perhaps, the Tathagata Buddha had some means to avoid this catastrophe, which was why he seemed so composed and unhurried?

"Not urgent! It is not yet the moment when I must intervene," said Tathagata Buddha, shaking his head with a calm expression that revealed no emotional fluctuation, leaving Maitreya Buddha perplexed. What did Tathagata Buddha mean by his words?

If now was not the time to intervene, then when would it be? Was he waiting for The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord’s group to fail before stepping in?

But by then, even the strength of Tathagata Buddha alone surely would not be a match for the Cauldron of Heaven’s Eye, would it?

Maitreya Buddha wanted to offer further persuasion, but after looking at Tathagata Buddha, he swallowed the words back down. Never mind, Tathagata Buddha was now a Primordial Taiji Da Luo Gold Immortal. If he wasn’t worried, why should he himself be so needlessly anxious?

It might be best to just wait and see for a bit longer!

Within the Heavenly Court, the Jade Emperor, the Primordial Heavenly Venerable, the Donghua Emperor, and a host of Immortals and Gods were also closely following the course of the battle.

They had originally thought that the Puti Patriarch had already broken through to the realm of the Primordial Taiji Da Luo Golden Immortal, and that with just one move, he would definitely be able to directly slay the Eye of the Sky, as the Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor did back then—completing the opening of the heavens and lifting the Great Calamity of the Three Realms. However, to their astonishment, the Eye of the Sky was incredibly powerful!

It wasn’t just the Puti Patriarch; even the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord and the Leader of Tongtian joined forces, only managing to fend off the Eye of the Sky’s attacks and approach it slowly. To slay the Eye of the Sky might be far more difficult than imagined!

"If I, too, were a Primordial Taiji Da Luo Golden Immortal at this moment, I would surely be able to slay that Eye of the Sky!"

The Primordial Heavenly Venerable, watching the grand battle above the Firmament, clenched his fists tightly. As one of the Three Purities, both the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord and the Leader of Tongtian had successively achieved the Dao by Slaying the Three Corpses, becoming Primordial Taiji Da Luo Golden Immortals. Yet, he was stuck at the very threshold of Uniting with the Dao through the Three Corpses, never able to take that final step!

Even the Tathagata Buddha had broken through, while his own breakthrough seemed endlessly far off. Now witnessing the shocking battle between the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord and the others and the Eye of the Sky, and feeling the terrifying strength emanating from it, the Primordial Heavenly Venerable’s heart was brimming with resentment and anger, almost enough to set him ablaze!

"The Primordial Taiji Da Luo Golden Immortal is indeed formidable, beyond the reach of ordinary beings!"

The Donghua Emperor inwardly sighed, "But the strength of that Eye of the Sky is even more dreadful. It’s really hard to say who will win or lose this great battle! Damn it, if I could only ascend one more level, I wouldn’t have to stand here watching the battle unfold!"

The Jade Emperor’s feelings were very complex at this moment. If the Eye of the Sky could be slain, it would be an incredibly fortunate event for the entire Three Realms, as the crisis would at least be resolved. The only issue was that in this battle for the opening of the heavens, the Human Heavenly Court had no strong participants; the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord and the Leader of Tongtian were both aligned with the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court. Even if they were successful, the Heavenly Court would not reap the benefits.

However, the Jade Emperor did not wish for their efforts to open the heavens to fail. If even the three of them joining forces were to fail, then the Three Realms would truly be doomed!

"Regardless, I hope you succeed! Our grievances can wait until later!"

Taking a deep breath, the Jade Emperor began to silently pray in his heart.

In the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court, within the Flower-Fruit Mountain, the entire assembly of the Demon Cult was closely watching this battle to open the heavens. This concern sprang not only from the fact that the outcome of the battle was critical for the existence of the Three Realms, but also that it was the first time in ancient history that three Primordial Taiji Da Luo Golden Immortals were joining forces—a truly historically unprecedented event!

"Puti Patriarch, come on!"

The Six-Eared Macaque, holding the Wishful Iron Staff, stood atop the waterfall on Flower-Fruit Mountain, his gaze fixed intently on the sky above, berating himself inwardly. If only he had also made the breakthrough to the Primordial Taiji Da Luo Golden Immortal realm, he could be helping the Puti Patriarch right now, instead of just standing here doing nothing!

Damn it, damn it!

Seemingly sensing the emotional turmoil within the Six-Eared Macaque, the Erlang God Yang Jian walked up behind him, patted his shoulder and sighed, "Self-blame is useless. Achieving the Dao through Slaying the Three Corpses and becoming a Saint is not so easy. It’s already quite an accomplishment for us to have reached the point of zero boundaries. All we can do now is to entrust it to them!"

"Big brother, where in the world are you? You’ve been gone for five hundred years. Why hasn’t there been any news from you? The Three Realms need you. Please come back!"

At the bottom of his heart, the Six-Eared Macaque called out for Sun Wukong. If Sun Wukong had made the breakthrough, he would be a Chaos Saint, far stronger than a Primordial Taiji Da Luo Golden Immortal. Dealing with the Eye of the Sky would definitely not be a problem!

However, Sun Wukong had already been gone for a full five hundred years, leaving no trace within the Three Realms. No one in the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court, including the Zi Xia Fairy, knew where he had gone.

"Big brother, if you don’t come back soon, I’m afraid it will really be too late!"
