Chapter 30

Then what did it represent?

"Saint King." Ksitigarbha picked up the book, sat cross-legged, and slowly began to read.

Soon.

Like Di Ting, Ksitigarbha was immersed in the story of *Saint King*. ===== CHAPTER 56 =====

Mount Huaguo.

"Old Sun has returned." Sun Wukong's voice rang out on Mount Huaguo.

The first thing Sun Wukong did was not to look for the monkeys, but to come to the grocery store.

Having just snatched some treasures from the Heavenly Court, it was the perfect time to continue reading *Journey to the West*.

"Shopkeeper, Shopkeeper, I'm here again." Sun Wukong knocked on the door.

With a "creak," the door opened.

Appearing before Sun Wukong was an acquaintance, that powerful shopkeeper.

"Why, Wukong, you have spiritual treasures to exchange for points so soon?" Wu Feng said with a smile, looking at the excited Sun Wukong.

"Hehe, yes, Shopkeeper. This time I have to thank the Jade Emperor; it was he who let me be an official in the Heavenly Court that I had such a harvest." Sun Wukong grinned.

If Sun Wukong had attacked the Heavenly Court.

Not to mention that the Heavenly Court had powerhouses at the Daluo Golden Immortal level, in the midst of a fight, how could he have managed to pull off so many sneak attacks like he did now?

You know, many gods and immortals had no defenses after seeing Sun Wukong.

This made Sun Wukong's sneak attacks much smoother and easier.

In any other situation, Sun Wukong could not have had such a harvest.

"Good, then come in. Let me see how your harvest is." Wu Feng nodded, signaling Sun Wukong to come in.

"There." The grocery store wasn't big, and after entering, Sun Wukong saw two people in the corner.

Sun Wukong was somewhat familiar with one of them.

That was the one he had seen in the Netherworld, and he had also seen him on Mount Huaguo, where he had even left him a strand of Quasi-Saint power.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.

"Ksitigarbha robbed the Buddhist Sect's treasury before, so he has new exchange points," Wu Feng said with a smile. "As for the other person, it is the transformation of Ksitigarbha's spirit beast, Di Ting."

"So that's how it is." Sun Wukong said in surprise. "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is truly amazing; he actually robbed the Buddhist Sect's treasury."

The current Sun Wukong still had some understanding of the Buddhist Sect's strength.

With his strength as a Taiyi Golden Immortal, if he entered Lingshan, he would truly be courting death.

It was only Ksitigarbha, who possessed Quasi-Saint strength, who could do such a thing.

More importantly, after robbing the Buddhist treasury, Ksitigarbha was still able to return alive.

This further proved that Ksitigarbha's strength was not simple.

"That's right, Wukong, you must work hard," Wu Feng said.

"That..." Sun Wukong scratched his hair. "Shopkeeper, once my strength reaches the Quasi-Saint level, perhaps I can try to find the Heavenly Court's treasury."

"Haha, alright, let me see how your harvest is this time." Wu Feng laughed loudly.

"Okay." Sun Wukong waved his right hand, and scattered spiritual treasures piled up on the ground, forming a small hill.

However, compared to Ksitigarbha's hill, there was still a big difference.

This was only natural.

One had robbed the Buddhist Sect's inventory, while the other had only robbed some gods and immortals of the Heavenly Court.

Not to mention that Sun Wukong hadn't robbed any Daluo or Quasi-Saint powerhouses in the Heavenly Court.

And here at Ksitigarbha's.

The treasures collected by Bodhisattvas, Buddhas, and Arhats were also within the Buddhist pagoda.

"Then let me take a look."

A ray of light fell upon these spiritual treasures.

"Sun Wukong, not bad this time; you have 6,000 exchange points." Wu Feng said with a smile.

"Only 6,000?" Sun Wukong was slightly disappointed; he had originally thought he would have over 10,000 exchange points.

"Haha, Sun Wukong, 6,000 is already not bad," Wu Feng said. "Even Ksitigarbha, after robbing the Buddhist pagoda, only had 50,000 points."

"Oh, thinking about it that way, my harvest seems pretty good too." Sun Wukong's eyes lit up. "Shopkeeper Senior, then I'm going to read."

Having not finished *Journey to the West* before, Sun Wukong was impatient.

6,000 points should be enough to read for a long time, right?

Last time, Sun Wukong had obtained the technique of the Thirty-Six Transformations of Heavenly Evil from *Journey to the West*.

"Wukong." Wu Feng suddenly called out.

"Shopkeeper Senior, is there anything else?" Sun Wukong was somewhat puzzled.

"Wukong, you only have the power of a Taiyi Golden Immortal now; perhaps you can try to see if you can break through to Daluo," Wu Feng said slowly. "If your strength doesn't improve, it won't be easy to escape your original destiny."

"This..." Sun Wukong's expression changed slightly.

Because he understood that the Shopkeeper was right.

As he learned more about the Journey to the West world, Sun Wukong also understood his own insignificance.

A Taiyi Golden Immortal is truly too weak in this world filled with powerhouses.

If things continued like this, he would still become a puppet of the immortals and gods.

Sun Wukong also understood that it was unrealistic to ask the Shopkeeper for help.

The other party didn't owe him anything.

In the end, he might still be suppressed for five hundred years just like in history.

"Shopkeeper Senior, please enlighten me." Sun Wukong bowed respectfully to Wu Feng.

In any case, the grocery store, and Wu Feng, were Sun Wukong's last hope, and his true hope.

"Sun Wukong, you have already obtained a strand of Chaos Demon God bloodline; now it depends on how you use it," Wu Feng said. "Go look for elixirs; there might be what you want there."

"Thank you, Shopkeeper Senior." Sun Wukong nodded and headed toward the cabinet where the elixirs were kept.

"Sun Wukong, whether you can change your destiny depends only on yourself." Wu Feng's eyes were deep in thought.

As for Sun Wukong, Wu Feng would not protect him like a nanny.

Just like Ksitigarbha.

Destiny must always be relied upon by oneself.

Wu Feng only gave them a key, a key to change.

…………………………

Above the grocery store, a cyan figure appeared.

It was that beautiful shadow who had been secretly following Sun Wukong.

Bi Xiao, one of the three Xiao sisters.

She was a Daluo Golden Immortal powerhouse.

Precisely because of this, she followed Sun Wukong, but Sun Wukong didn't notice much.

"That monkey seems to have entered here." Bi Xiao looked at the building in the sky, hesitating. "A grocery store, what kind of place is this? It looks very ordinary."

"Forget it, wait a moment. If Sun Wukong comes out, I'll go in and take a look." Bi Xiao's eyes lit up. "Maybe there are some treasures; who knows." ===== CHAPTER 57 =====
