Rebirth in Journey to the West: Sun Wukong
Chapter 812 - 813 Huge Contrast (First update!)

"Stop! Where is your command token?"

Arriving at the city gates, Sun Wukong and his companions were about to enter the city when they were halted by the soldiers guarding the gates.

"Command token? What kind of command token?"

The group exchanged bewildered glances. Entering a city required a command token?

"This kind of command token!"

The soldier pulled out a piece of jade, with faint primordial force fluctuations, and the runes inside seemed alive.

"Oh, this kind of command token! Yes, yes, we have it, of course!"

Sun Wukong reached into his bosom and pulled out five identical command tokens, showing them to the guard.

"Why didn’t you say you had them earlier? Alright, you may pass!"

With a look of impatience, the soldier waved his hand dismissively as though shooing flies. He tapped the ground with his spear, and a circle of ripples appeared from nowhere. It turned out that the city gate was protected by a barrier.

After the barrier’s entrance opened, Sun Wukong and his companions exchanged a glance and stepped through the city gate one by one.

"Wukong, not bad! You quickly got hold of the command token!"

On the street, Demon Ancestor Lou Hu glanced at Sun Wukong and chuckled.

"This is nothing. Using chaos primordial force to create a piece of jade and adding runes inside is simple. Lou Hu, you can do it too, can’t you?"

Sun Wukong shrugged. It was merely using chaos primordial force to condense a piece of jade and inscribe runes within it. The runes weren’t complex, easy to understand at a glance.

Demon Ancestor Lou Hu chuckled, without denying it. After ascending to the Chaos Saint Realm, he could also summon chaos primordial force. However, he wasn’t as naturally attuned as Sun Wukong’s chaos battle body. Nonetheless, making a similar command token was not a difficult task for him.

"This Yuan Realm seems to have a specific management system. The command token must be a symbol of identity. Elderly Lord, Master, Tongtian Brother, each of you should take one. It may come in handy at some point."

The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord and the others did not refuse, accepting the tokens. To be honest, arriving at this Yuan Realm had quite an impact on them. Not to mention, the soldiers guarding the gate were all at the Heavenly Dao Saint Cultivation level!

Heavenly Dao Saints!

Supreme powerhouses in the Three Realms, and in the Yuan Realm they were merely gatekeepers! As Primordial Taiji Da Luo Gold Immortals, their status might not be much higher.

Just arriving in the Yuan Realm, it was wise to remain low-key and cautious before understanding the situation.

Finding a tavern, Sun Wukong and his companions entered and sat by the window. They ordered two jars of wine and several small dishes, slowly drinking and gathering information.

Taverns are prime locations to overhear news. To understand the basics of an unfamiliar realm, a couple of hours in a bustling tavern would suffice.

Soon, Sun Wukong and his companions discerned the general situation of the Yuan Realm from local conversations.

Like the Three Realms, the Yuan Realm was divided into four continents, but its area was millions of times larger.

Besides the East, South, West, and North continents, the center contained a floating city with a relatively smaller area known as the Central Region.

A void separated the four continents. Traversing the void required at least the Domain Lord Cultivation level.

Unlike the Three Realms’ cultivation divisions, the Yuan Realm’s hierarchy spans Yuan Soldier, Yuan General, Domain Marshal, Yuan King, Yuan Emperor, Domain Soldier, Domain General, Domain Marshal, Domain Lord, Domain King, Domain Emperor, and Domain Saint.

The Yuan Soldier was equivalent to a Heavenly Dao Saint in the Three Realms, and Yuan General corresponded to Primordial Taiji Da Luo Gold Immortal and Primordial Wuji Da Luo Gold Immortal. The Domain Marshal was akin to a Chaos Saint.

Below Yuan Soldiers were unremarkable roles, akin to ordinary people in the Yuan Realm, whereas Yuan Soldiers were the basic military force, like the gate guards.

Yuan Generals could assume positions of a centurion in the army or join mid-tier sects as Outer Sect disciples. Achieving the Yuan General level marked the beginning of status, allowing one to become a centurion or Inner Sect disciple in major sects.

In other words, among the five, Sun Wukong and Demon Ancestor Lou Hu were equivalent to centurions, qualifying as Inner Sect disciples in mid-tier sects, while The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord, Leader of Tongtian, and Puti Patriarch could at most be centurions or Outer Sect disciples.

In the Three Realms, they stood at the pinnacle, but in the Yuan Realm, they were ordinary, blending into the crowd. The vast disparity brought significant melancholy, evident on the faces of The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord and others.

"Master, don’t be disheartened. We’ve just arrived, lagging behind momentarily is normal. After all, this is a higher-dimensional world than the Three Realms. Different starting points lead to different levels. We reached the peak in the Three Realms, we can do the same here!"

Seeing Puti Patriarch and the others looking despondent, Sun Wukong chuckled, encouraging them.

Unlike Puti Patriarch and the others, Sun Wukong felt no sorrow, but rather a hint of excitement.

In the Three Realms, he had risen from nothing, finding joy in transforming from weak to strong, battling increasingly powerful opponents. This world’s abundance of formidable beings provided endless targets to pursue.

The days ahead promised to be very interesting.

Living in the Yuan Realm necessitated its currency, Primordial Crystal Coins. Sun Wukong and his companions were penniless, in need of Primordial Crystal Coins for survival. The currency was unique, unaffected by chaos primordial force, posing a challenge.

Otherwise, they couldn’t even pay for their meal!

While pondering over the Primordial Crystal Coins, a nearby conversation caught their attention.

"Have you heard? Pangu from East Barbarian City killed Sky-shaking Cliff’s Eastern Sage Prince!"

"Of course! The news has spread throughout the Yuan Realm! They say Eastern Sage Prince, besides being one of Sky-shaking Cliff’s four princes, was Cliff Lord Huangfu Song’s illegitimate son. Now, there’s a deep-seated enmity between Sky-shaking Cliff and East Barbarian City!"

"Indeed! Pangu truly has guts!"

"Oh, you know he’s a battle maniac. In the heat of battle, he’d challenge anyone, even the almighty. Eastern Sage Prince must have had a lapse to provoke that lunatic!"
