Chapter 148: An existence surpassing the Heavenly Dao

"Sun Wukong," Guanyin's heart stirred.

As the protagonist of the Journey to the West Kalpa Tribulation, Guanyin naturally knew.

Sun Wukong being able to come to the Heavenly Court to be an official was also an arrangement by the Western Fomen.

It was precisely so that Sun Wukong could be tempered and eventually become one of the members of the Kalpa Tribulation.

Becoming the protagonist who would make the Western Fomen flourish.

Otherwise, the vast Heavenly Court would not truly have no one capable of dealing with Sun Wukong.

Just like the Emperor Zhenwu sent by the Emperor this time.

"Your Majesty, I wonder what you intend to do?" Guanyin asked.

"I have dispatched Emperor Zhenwu, who has already headed to Mount Huaguo to capture the monkey demon," the Emperor said.

"Emperor Zhenwu," Guanyin was somewhat surprised.

Emperor Zhenwu could be considered a powerful immortal god who had risen recently.

Cultivators capable of becoming Quasi-Saints were extremely rare; like them, it was only because they were originally disciples of Saints that they had such qualifications.

Just like Guanyin, who relied on the merit and luck of the Western Fomen to make a breakthrough.

This was enough to show that the difficulty of breaking through to become a Quasi-Saint was very high.

And Emperor Zhenwu was considered by many powerhouses to be qualified to break through and become a Quasi-Saint.

This was a very high evaluation.

After all, in an era where it was almost impossible to become a Saint, becoming a Quasi-Saint was the greatest praise.

"Yes, that is correct, it is Emperor Zhenwu," the Emperor continued. "So Bodhisattva, whether you return to Lingshan first or wait in the Heavenly Court, that is up to you."

"Your Majesty, Guanyin has a request," Guanyin said.

"Speak."

"Your Majesty, I wonder if we, the people of the Western Fomen, can follow along to capture the monkey demon this time?" Guanyin stated his plan.

For this Western Fomen Bodhisattva, he did not want anything to happen to Sun Wukong, whom the Western Fomen had taken a fancy to.

"No problem," the Emperor revealed a smile. "I will let you follow Emperor Zhenwu. By the way, there is one more thing I need to explain to you."

"Sun Wukong has picked all the Innate Spiritual Root flat peaches clean; you need to explain this to Rulai. What was said before is not enough; this requires compensation."

"Of course, the same goes for Taishang Laojun's place."

After finishing, the Emperor left the Lingxiao Treasure Hall.

Leaving behind Guanyin, Manjusri, and the others, who looked at each other in dismay.

In the Chaos, a palace emitting brilliant light floated here.

Ten thousand rays of light prevented the surrounding Chaos power from destroying this palace; three words were carved on the palace.

Zixiao Palace.

"It has been a long time since I came to Zixiao Palace," Tongtian Jiaozhu said, carrying the Qingping Sword on his back and looking at the palace before him.

"Tongtian, come in."

When Tongtian Jiaozhu landed at Zixiao Palace, Hongjun's voice rang out.

Compared to the Western Two Saints who were not welcomed, Tongtian Jiaozhu was still valued by Hongjun.

Of course, more importantly, it was the terrifying existence behind Tongtian.

An existence surpassing the Heavenly Dao level.

This forced Dao Ancestor Hongjun to take it seriously.

After all, Hongjun, who was currently merging with the Heavenly Dao, could only be considered to have initially stepped into the Heavenly Dao level.

As for the Great Dao, it was unreachable.

Regardless of what the other party's purpose for coming to the Primordial World was, maintaining a good relationship was what Dao Ancestor Hongjun should do at present.

Inside Zixiao Palace.

"Disciple Tongtian pays respects to Teacher," Tongtian Jiaozhu walked to the depths of the palace and saw the old man who seemed to have merged with the Heavenly Dao.

Tongtian Jiaozhu was naturally very familiar with this old man.

It was his teacher, Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

"Tongtian, you have recovered," Dao Ancestor Hongjun said slowly, looking at Tongtian Jiaozhu before him.

Originally, after the Investiture of the Gods Kalpa Tribulation, Tongtian Jiaozhu had been in a state of being struck down; this was also the reason why Tongtian Jiaozhu had maintained the appearance of an old man.

Later, because of Wu Feng, Tongtian Jiaozhu regained his fighting spirit and became the Tongtian Jiaozhu he was at the beginning.

That was the man who dared to go head-to-head with four Saints.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun was naturally aware of these matters.

However, Hongjun would not interfere too much in the battles between Tongtian and the others, unless they caused great damage to the Primordial World.

During the Investiture of the Gods Kalpa Tribulation, Tongtian wanted to destroy the world and recreate it; only then did Hongjun intervene and take Tongtian away.

As a part of the Heavenly Dao, Hongjun naturally could not let a Saint destroy this world.

"Yes, Teacher, because I have figured it out," Tongtian Jiaozhu's eyes were full of fighting spirit. "Although I failed in the past, the future is not necessarily the same."

"Tongtian, the Western Fomen Kalpa Tribulation is approaching. Although this Kalpa Tribulation cannot be compared to past ones, if you intervene, you will definitely be affected by the karma of heaven and earth," Dao Ancestor Hongjun said in a deep voice. "Do you really intend to do this?"

"How would I know if I don't try?" Tongtian said.

Originally, Tongtian Jiaozhu had nothing left; now, re-establishing the Jie Sect, the worst-case scenario was just starting from zero.

"Tongtian, I said before that Saints cannot interfere in the mortal world, whether it is you, Laozi, or other Saints; otherwise, don't blame your teacher," Hongjun said.

"Teacher, I understand," Tongtian Jiaozhu laughed. "As a Saint, I will not interfere in the mortal world. If I really have to interfere, it will be a battle between me and other Saints, and not against other living beings."

"Hmm, it is good that you understand," Dao Ancestor Hongjun nodded with satisfaction. "Tongtian, this time Teacher came to find you because there is one thing I want to ask you."

"Teacher, please speak," Tongtian nodded, understanding that his teacher was now officially entering the topic.

"Tongtian, is there a powerhouse behind you, a powerhouse who does not belong to the Primordial World?" Dao Ancestor Hongjun said slowly, looking at Tongtian.

"As expected," Tongtian Jiaozhu said to himself.

Originally, he thought that Dao Ancestor Hongjun coming to find him should have reasons and purposes in this regard. ===== CHAPTER 150 =====
