Chapter 463: Sun Wukong
"Sixth Grade Peak is only a regular soldier, and only a Seventh Grade expert can be a squad leader?" Meng Yifan felt thoughtful and under immense pressure; perhaps there were many experts in this place.
"Eh! Such dense Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi." Meng Yifan's heart stirred. Just now, he had only taken a breath and felt a stream of pure Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi enter his body, which refreshed his spirit and improved his cultivation by a tiny bit.
If the amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi on Earth were quantified as 0.01, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi in the Great Martial Heavenly Dynasty World would be 10, and the concentration of Spirit Qi where Meng Yifan was currently located was at least 100.
"What dense Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi. If one were to cultivate in such an environment, one would certainly achieve twice the result with half the effort."
Meng Yifan was secretly alarmed. In such an environment, there must be many experts; his Sixth Grade Peak cultivation might perhaps be the bottom-tier trash here.
"Hurry out, there are still people behind waiting to teleport," a soldier maintaining order shouted loudly.
Meng Yifan was stunned for a moment before realizing the other party was talking to him. Being a newcomer, Meng Yifan did not want to cause trouble, so he obeyed the soldier's order and walked out of the teleportation array.
"Strange, why don't I see the Old Dragon King, Emperor Kaisa, Khan Yewang, or Lady Gu and the others?" Meng Yifan was puzzled.
If it were said that Khan Yewang and the others were to be demoted to a suicide squad and might have gone to a different place, why was Zhou Rentong also not teleported here?
Meng Yifan walked out of the teleportation array and into a bustling street. Here, whether it was the middle-aged woman selling vegetables by the road, the old man sweeping the floor, or the beauties dressed in all their finery standing by the street with smiling faces to welcome guests, all were cultivators of the Sixth Grade or above.
Meng Yifan walked for a while, and the further he went, the more he felt something was wrong. Although the powerful figure who appeared in the Great Martial Heavenly Dynasty did not say much, it could be inferred that he intended to take the Sixth Grade experts of the Great Martial Heavenly Dynasty World to serve as cannon fodder.
But now, Meng Yifan had finished teleporting, yet no one had come to arrange which troop he should join. It seemed no one was managing him either; he was free, and could go wherever he wanted?
As Meng Yifan passed by a restaurant, he saw three guests sitting by a window, clinking cups and exchanging toasts.
"Have you heard? A battle report came from the northern front: the Great Sage Equaling Heaven led an army to break through the enemy's Mysterious Ice Fortress, beheaded the White Tiger King in battle, and won a complete victory."
"I heard. It's a pity that on the western front, the Erlang Manifestation Saint True Monarch was besieged by two Ancient God Realm experts and was severely injured. The western front's Zhenxi Pass was also lost, the entire army was defeated with heavy casualties, and the Erlang Manifestation Saint True Monarch retreated to Xiwang Pass, only barely stabilizing the situation with the help of Taibai Jinxing."
"The southern front battlefield is also in a great war; it is simply a cultivator meat grinder, very cruel. Every day, over a thousand cultivators are killed or injured, and the Three Altars Sea-Meeting Great Deity is almost unable to hold on and is constantly asking the rear for reinforcements."
Hearing this, Meng Yifan was struck as if by lightning and stood frozen on the spot.
"Great Sage Equaling Heaven? Erlang Manifestation Saint True Monarch? Three Altars Sea-Meeting Great Deity?" Meng Yifan was greatly shocked, wondering if these figures the few were talking about were the same great deities that people on Earth were so familiar with.
"Greetings, brothers. May I ask, is the Great Sage Equaling Heaven Sun Wukong, is the Erlang Manifestation Saint True Monarch Yang Jian, and is the Three Altars Sea-Meeting Great Deity Nezha?" Meng Yifan asked.
A Fatty wearing a wealthy man's robe said somewhat nervously: "Watch your words. How can you be so rude, brother? Directly calling the names of the great deities is a great disrespect. With their level of cultivation, if you call their names directly, they will sense it in their hearts. If you happen to run into a great deity in a bad mood, they might just rain down monstrous fury."
The other two guests also had their expressions change drastically, seemingly afraid that Meng Yifan's direct use of the great deities' names would bring some disaster upon them.
Seeing the reactions of the few, Meng Yifan already knew that the great deities they spoke of were indeed those from Earth's myths and legends.
"The great deities on Earth disappeared long ago; could it be that they all came here? With the terrifying combat power of Erlang Shen and the others, they are actually being suppressed by the enemy. Who are the enemies fighting them?"
Meng Yifan's heart was filled with doubts. Just as he was preparing to enter the tavern to drink and make merry with the three guests and ask for information,
The entire Heaven and Earth suddenly stood still, as if the whole world had been pressed on the pause button.
In the tavern, the waiter was walking down the stairs with a tray, but he had suddenly stopped right there after taking a step with his right foot. Even the food in his hands, which had originally been steaming and emitting white smoke, now had that white smoke suddenly stop and remain motionless.
The middle-aged Fatty wearing the wealthy man's robe by the window had his mouth open, looking at Meng Yifan, seemingly wanting to say something more, but his mouth, though opened, remained frozen at that moment.
"How could this be?" Meng Yifan was greatly shocked. Everyone else was unable to move, but Meng Yifan was unaffected. This made him even more confused, not knowing what was going on.
A figure suddenly appeared as if teleporting, looked at Meng Yifan with a smile, and said: "You have finally come."
The person before him had a sunken face, a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks, and eyes flashing with golden light. He wore a Phoenix-Winged Purple Gold Crown on his head, wore Chainmail Golden Armor, stepped on Lotus Silk Cloud-Stepping Boots, and held a Golden Cudgel in his hand. He was exactly the same as the image of Sun Wukong in myths and legends.
"Are you Sun Wukong?" Meng Yifan asked with some uncertainty.
"Haha, it is indeed Old Sun. It seems you have many doubts. Come with me, and I will clear up your confusion," Sun Wukong said. After he finished speaking, an auspicious cloud rose beneath Meng Yifan's feet, and the two soared into the air, disappearing from the spot in an instant.
After Sun Wukong and Meng Yifan left, the world on this street began to operate again.
"Brother, you really cannot call the great deities by their names... Eh! Where did that brother from just now go? How did he suddenly disappear?" The Fatty wearing the wealthy man's robe rubbed his eyes in disbelief, discovering that Meng Yifan was truly gone.
"Strange, could it be that a great deity was angered and used mysterious, unfathomable means to make that kid mysteriously disappear?"
"It's possible. I told you not to call the great deities by their names."
Those few guests felt a chill down their spines and were filled with lingering fear. Fortunately, they had not offended the great deities; otherwise, they might have mysteriously disappeared too.
Sun Wukong brought Meng Yifan to a quaint Daoist temple and said: "It's a long story. Back then, the meridians on Earth withered. Not only could Immortal Cultivators no longer cultivate, but even we deities saw our strength decline. If we didn't find a way out, we would also slowly perish."
"Later, we traveled through the starry sky, crossed the vast Universe Sea, and found this world rich in Spirit Qi. This is the center of the Universe Sea and also the place with the densest Spirit Qi."
"Not only that, there are many innate Spirit Treasures here, as well as a large amount of top-grade Refining materials and heavenly treasures. Just when all the deities were excited, a group of powerful visitors from outside the sky also arrived here."
