Chapter 56

nan shen bu zhou.

Great Bamboo Peak.

Boom!

Boom!

Heavenly Punishment Thunder comes with a mighty momentum!

However! Most of the thunderbolts were cut down by Yang Jian's Three-Pointed Double-Edged Blade!

The remaining small portion of thunderbolts was blocked by Yang Chan's Precious Lotus Lamp!

Not a single thunderbolt could approach Yao Ji below! And Ye Yang's Great Bamboo Peak was completely unaffected!

In the blink of an eye!

An hour passed! After cleaving the last Heavenly Punishment Thunder!

The tribulation clouds in the void slowly dissipated! Seeing this!

Yang Jian let out a sigh of relief.

His internal mana had long been depleted, more or less!

If it weren't for his formidable physical strength, comparable to a Great Luo Golden Immortal! He couldn't have held on until now!

Yang Chan's face also showed a hint of joy.

Compared to Yang Jian! She only needed to activate the Precious Lotus Lamp, which seemed relatively easy! But the Precious Lotus Lamp is a supreme innate spiritual treasure! Yang Chan, however, only has the cultivation of a Taiyi Golden Immortal!

Her internal mana is simply insufficient to sustain the Precious Lotus Lamp for a long time!

Fortunately!

Yang Chan is a disciple of the Saint Nüwa!

She possesses many heavenly and earthly treasures that replenish mana! That's precisely why Yang Chan can hold on until now! 'Erlang!'

'Chan'er!'

Just then.

Yao Ji's voice sounded in the ears of those present.

During the time when the Heavenly Punishment descended.

Yao Ji had already learned everything from Yang Jiao's mouth!

As for her own child's resurrection, Yao Ji was naturally very happy!

But seeing Yang Jian and Yang Chan desperately resisting the Heavenly Punishment also made Yao Ji feel deeply guilty! As a mother, she seemed to have brought great trouble upon her child! 'Mother!'

'Mother!'

Yao Ji's words had just fallen.

Yang Jian and Yang Chan then appeared beside Yao Ji! Yang Chan directly leapt into Yao Ji's embrace, holding her tightly and refusing to let go! Upon seeing this!

Yao Ji returned the embrace, gently patting Yang Chan's back.

Yang Jiao and Yang Qian, standing to the side, looked at this heartwarming scene and burst out laughing together! After a long while, Yang Chan finally emerged from Yao Ji's embrace! Just as she was about to say something, Yao Ji suddenly turned her gaze toward where Ye Yang was.

Before Ye Yang's eyes, a middle‑aged man had appeared out of nowhere! 'Fellow Daoist!'

'I have taken note of the matter concerning Yao Ji and Yang Jiao!'

"."

Gazing at Ye Yang before him.

Haotian clasped his hands slightly and spoke with utmost sincerity.

Before the heavenly punishment had dissipated!

Haotian had already arrived near Great Bamboo Peak! Because Yang Qian and Yang Chan, the siblings, had effectively blocked the heavenly punishment!

Therefore, Haotian did not reveal himself, remaining hidden and on guard!

Now!

As the heavenly punishment dispersed!

Yao Ji also successfully came back to life! Only then did Haotian approach Ye Yang to express his gratitude!

'No problem!'

'I have already received my payment!'

"."

Upon hearing Haotian's words,

Ye Yang waved his hand, saying indifferently.

However! In his heart, Ye Yang secretly looked down on Haotian! He could sense Haotian's genuine sincerity from his tone!

But Ye Yang clearly understood that Haotian's gratitude toward him was solely because of Yao Ji, having nothing to do with Yang Jiao!

After all, Yang Jiao had been revived for over ten years! Previously, Haotian had never thanked Ye Yang!

It's obvious! In Haotian's heart, Yang Jiao is merely a convenient nephew, with shallow feelings!

What Haotian truly cares about is probably only his sister Yao Ji!

Seeing Ye Yang's casual attitude,

Haotian shook his head and said nothing more.

Afterward.

Haotian slowly turned and walked toward Yao Ji, Yang Qian, and the others!

Soon! Haotian arrived before Yao Ji, Yang Qian, and the others! Yao Ji opened her mouth but hadn't yet spoken.

Haotian then casually waved his hand, sweeping up Yao Ji, Yang Qian, and the others, and they vanished instantly from Great Bamboo Peak!

Regarding this situation, Ye Yang was not at all surprised! Haotian, after all, is the Great Celestial Venerable of the Heavenly Court, the nominal ruler of the Three Realms! No matter how much Haotian might care for Yao Ji!

He couldn't possibly show his tender side in front of Ye Yang! What's more! Right now, on Great Bamboo Peak, there's more than just Ye Yang! 'Monkey!'

You can come out now!

Ye Yang glanced sideways, looking toward the bamboo grove not far away!

Besides bamboo, there was only bamboo—there was simply no monkey Ye Yang talked about! 'So.'

Do you want me to pull you out?

Moments later.

Ye Yang rubbed his brow and spoke again.

But his tone was much stricter than before! A solemn killing aura spread across Great Bamboo Peak! The next moment! A monkey dressed in a Daoist robe sprang out from inside a bamboo stalk!

No no no!

Great Immortal, don't be angry!

Old Sun's come out!

Looking at Ye Yang's solemn expression.

Sun Wukong hurriedly spoke, his face still showing an embarrassed look.

He truly hadn't expected that, despite hiding so well, he would still be discovered!

Most importantly!

He sensed a deadly threat emanating from Ye Yang!

It seemed as if, if he didn't follow Ye Yang's words, something terrible would happen! 'Spit it out!'

Who are you, and what are you doing on my Great Bamboo Peak?

Gazing at the monkey not far away.

A mysterious divine light flashed in Ye Yang's eyes.

In fact! Whether it's Hao Tian or this monkey before us!

Whenever they came near Great Bamboo Peak, Ye Yang was aware of it!

And this monkey before us arrived even earlier than Hao Tian! The heavenly tribulation had just descended not long ago!

This monkey had already arrived, hiding all along in the bamboo grove! And with Ye Yang's current cultivation, he could see through the monkey's true nature at a glance!

Spirit-Enlightened Stone Monkey!

Golden Immortal Peak cultivation! The divine ability he used while hiding is still a minor ability from the Seventy-Two Transformations of Earthly Evil! Isn't this the protagonist of the Journey to the West calamity, Sun Wukong? However! Following the original fate's trajectory, the present Sun Wukong should have just been driven out of Square Inch Mountain!

Why not return to his Flower Fruit Mountain, but come to my Great Bamboo Peak to do what? 'Immortal Master!'

Hehe~

I'm Sun Wukong!

I came here for nothing special, just to check out the excitement!

Hearing Ye Yang's inquiry,

Sun Wukong scratched his head and replied with a silly smile.

Heavens!

What he said is truly sincere! Not long ago!

Because he showed off his divine abilities in front of his senior brother, Patriarch Bodhi flew into a rage and directly expelled him from Square Inch Mountain! Left with no choice!

Sun Wukong could only return to his Flower Fruit Mountain! But he hadn't even had time to set out when an incredibly terrifying aura swept across the Three Realms! Sun Wukong was stunned! Since he learned his abilities, he had always thought his strength was great! But in the face of this aura, Sun Wukong for the first time felt his own insignificance!

After Sun Wukong came to his senses!

In Sun Wukong's heart, the idea arose to seek out this powerful one!

Why did he leave Flower Fruit Mountain? Because he wanted to learn the way to immortality! But did he learn it?

No! Under Patriarch Subhuti's teachings, he became much stronger! Yet he knows his situation hasn't reached the level of immortality!

If he hadn't felt Ye Yang's aura!

Sun Wukong might still be quite satisfied with his situation! Because he learned the Seventy-Two Transformations of Earthly Evil, allowing him to continually dodge heavenly calamities, thereby extending his lifespan!

To a certain extent!

This could even be considered a roundabout way of achieving immortality!

However! Ye Yang's aura could sweep across the entire Three Realms!

This is something Sun Wukong dares not even imagine in his dreams! In Sun Wukong's mind, such a powerful being must certainly possess the true way to immortality! If he could take such a powerful one as his master, he would naturally learn the true way to immortality!

Originally!

Ye Yang's aura quickly dissipated!

Sun Wukong simply couldn't find where Ye Yang was! Moreover!

Because Yao Ji had been resurrected! Near Great Bamboo Peak, a heavenly tribulation appeared! The Golden Immortal Peak Sun Wukong naturally sensed something unusual! Holding onto the hope of luck!

That's why Sun Wukong came to Great Bamboo Peak and hid in the bamboo grove! (End of chapter)
