Chapter 60: Master's wanted poster, bounty on an entire thousand worlds!

In front of him, who knows how far away.

A corpse so huge it cannot be described in words floats silently.

The corpse resembled a giant, its body covered in ferocious bone spikes, merely floating there,

Its lingering pressure caused the surrounding chaotic currents to stagnate.

This is the corpse of a demon god.

Moreover, it is a Saint-level Chaotic Demon God!

Sun Wukong's heart sank.

As soon as he entered, he saw a Saint's corpse.

What exactly is the "fraud" mentioned in Master's letter?

Chaos knows no distance.

Though the corpse seemed not far, Sun Wukong flew for a full half hour before truly reaching it.

The closer he got, the clearer the overwhelming stillness and immense pressure became.

This corpse is larger than any star in the primordial starry sky.

It lay there like that, itself a continent of death.

Sun Wukong stood before its "toe", tiny as a speck of dust.

He could feel that the demon god, in life, had commanded a law imbued with decay and finality.

Merely the aura leaking from its death was enough to cause a Quasi-Saint's Dao Heart to collapse and their flesh to disintegrate.

"What a formidable guy."

Sun Wukong whispered.

This is absolutely a Saint far surpassing the likes of the Three Pure Ones and the guides.

"Hmph!"

At that very moment, a wisp of black residual resentment on the corpse,

seemed to sense the breath of living beings, transforming into an arrow that shot toward Sun Wukong!

The power of law contained in that resentment could easily pierce a Saint's dharma body.

Sun Wukong's expression didn't change, and he couldn't even be bothered to use the Golden Cudgel.

He merely raised his hand and slapped it away.

"Pa!"

With a crisp sound, that terrifying resentment was dissipated by his slap.

His fleshly body has long become that of a Chaotic Demon God, invulnerable to all laws.

Having cleared that minor nuisance, he leapt onto the demon god's corpse, rushing toward the source of the fatal wound.

Along the way, he saw countless traces of laws torn apart, obviously a earth-shattering battle had taken place here.

But all the attack traces existed only in the chaos surrounding the corpse.

On the demon god's main body, there was only one wound.

When Sun Wukong finally arrived at that wound, he was utterly stunned.

It was a hole piercing through the demon god's chest.

The wound's edges were incredibly smooth, with no extraneous damage.

All vitality, laws, and divine souls were erased from that point in an instant.

And the "weapon" that caused all this still remains at the scene.

A tree branch.

A branch that looks utterly ordinary, even somewhat withered, is stuck slantwise in the demon god's chest.

Sun Wukong's body began to tremble uncontrollably.

This branch, he knows it too well.

It is the very branch that, when he studied at the Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, Master Bodhi Patriarch used to strike his palm,

a punishment for sweeping the ground, a branch casually snapped from the Bodhi tree in the backyard.

He reached out his hand, wanting to touch it.

Before his fingertips even neared, he felt a moist yet overbearing to the extreme "Dao" resonance.

That resonance told him that this seemingly ordinary branch,

in an instant pierced a mighty Chaotic Demon God, and together with all of it, returned completely to "nothing".

Sun Wukong's heart, from its initial coldness, instantly turned scorching.

So...... it was like this.

Master, old man, is not being hunted.

He is counter-attacking!

That so-called rescue paper crane, what kind of rescue letter is it!

It is clearly a challenge letter!

It is Master telling him: "Disciple, don't stay at home; outside there's fun, come quickly!"

Sun Wukong inexplicably wanted to laugh.

He grinned and laughed silently.

The worries, fear, and anger in his heart, at this moment, all transformed into the supreme pride of being a disciple of Bodhi.

His Master is still that Master who regards everything as nothing.

Sun Wukong withdrew his gaze and carefully examined that branch.

The direction of the branch is not random.

Its tip points toward a certain direction deep within the Deep Chaos.

It is a signpost.

His master is pointing the way for him.

"Alright!"

Sun Wukong slapped his thigh, and with Fiery Golden Eyes he gazed in that direction.

Chaos has no direction, but in a Saint's eyes the thread of cause and effect is clearly discernible.

He saw a clear track left after his master's Dao had trampled over it.

He no longer lingered, turning into a beam of golden light, following the track toward deeper Chaos.

This time, he felt no trace of worry or fear.

In its place was endless fighting spirit and excitement.

He did not know how long he had flown.

Amid the Deathly Silence of the Chaos, a colossal being appeared at the far edge of Sun Wukong's sight.

It was a city.

A majestic city beyond any description.

It floated above the Chaos Sea, its walls forged from the skeletal remains of Deathly Silent stars,

The spires of its towers bore a Black Sun that emitted a pallid, grim light.

Countless oddly shaped Living Beings rode various Chaos beasts, entering and exiting through the city gates.

Here, a civilization had somehow formed.

Sun Wukong halted, transformed, becoming a hunched Chaotic Remnant Clan member with twin horns on his head, whose aura was only at Golden Immortal Level.

It was a minor character he had casually killed along the way.

He suppressed all Saint aura, blending into the bustling crowd of 'people' and walked toward the city gate.

The moment he approached, he felt a suffocating pressure.

At the gate stood two rows of guards.

Each one radiated an aura unmistakably of Saint Level!

Saints, here, only guard the gate?

Sun Wukong's heart gave a sudden thump.

He lowered his head and entered the gate.

The streets grew even livelier.

A three-headed, six-armed demon god set up a stall on the street, hawking the Primordial Source of a small world.

A mountain‑sized beast served as a mount, pulling a splendid 'car' whose passenger's aura was unfathomably deep.

Sun Wukong even saw a winged Living Being casually toss a crystal stone infused with the Great Dao Law, rewarding a roadside performer spouting fire.

The Great Dao walks the earth; Saints are no better than dogs.

That saying, here, has become reality.

Sun Wukong felt a long‑missed pressure.

He also felt an excitement that pierced to the marrow.

This place truly befits his Great Sage Equal to Heaven!

His steps halted before a massive light screen.

The light screen stood in the most conspicuous spot inside the gate, scrolling rows of portraits and text.

It seemed to be... a wanted notice?

Sun Wukong lifted his head.

He saw at the top of the screen the largest, clearest portrait.

Its beard and hair were all white, with an ethereal, Daoist bearing.

Its expression was gentle, yet seemed to contain the birth and death of the entire Chaos.

It was his master, the Bodhi Patriarch!

Beneath the portrait, a line of large characters written in the universal Chaos script stung Sun Wukong's eyes.

【Highest Wanted Notice】

【Target: Void (Dao name Bodhi)】

【Crime: Slaughter of the 'Wailing Demon God', destruction of the 'Ten Thousand Bone Pantheon', theft of a Chaos Core Fragment】

【Reward: One complete Da Qian world, or become an official member of the Pantheon】

【Issuer: Pantheon】

Sun Wukong stood rooted, motionless.

Around him, several Chaos Living Beings pointed at the screen.

"Is that old man called Bodhi? I heard he just came from a shattered 'Primordial Wilderness' small world and slaughtered the Wailing Demon God?"

"More than that! The three thousand demon gods of the Ten Thousand Bone Pantheon were reduced to ash by him in one breath! That's a direct force of the Pantheon!"

"Crazy, right? A newcomer just arrived and dares to do this? Who does he think he is?"

"Who knows, but the bounty is real! One Da Qian world! Enough for us to cultivate until death without running out! If I find him, I'll report immediately!"

Sun Wukong listened to the discussion.

He slowly lowered his head.

His shoulders twitched slightly.

The nearby Chaos Realm Living Being glanced at him, thought he was scared dumb, and disdainfully gave him a shove.

"Hey, shorty, don't block the way!"

Sun Wukong ignored him.

He simply lifted his head slowly, and a face twisted by a wild laugh appeared before that Living Being.

"Ha ha…"

"Hahahahahaha!"

He laughed.

He laughed so hard his body rocked forward and back, and tears were about to spill.

Wanted notice?

Bounty?

Fine.

Very good!

So I won't have to, old Sun, go find you one by one!

The Golden Cudgel in his ear sensed its master's boiling‑to‑the‑extreme battle intent, began to shake wildly, and emitted a blood‑thirsty hum.

Sun Wukong's laughter abruptly stopped.

In his Fiery Golden Eyes burned pure, unmasked killing intent, sweeping over this massive Chaos Realm City.

He whispered softly, his voice drowned in the noisy streets.

"The new journey has begun."

"Master, you old one must hold on."

"My disciple, isn't this just…"

"Come, let's slash through this Chaos!"
