Chapter 42

In front of the grocery store.

Sun Wukong brought Tianpeng here.

"Grocery store? Sun Wukong, is this opened by you?" Marshal Tianpeng asked suspiciously.

Mount Huaguo belongs to Sun Wukong’s territory; if this is not Sun Wukong’s, then whose could it be?

"Bajie, you thought wrong there." Sun Wukong shook his head. "I don't have the qualifications to be the boss of the grocery store. The owner of this grocery store is very powerful. You know that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, right? Even that Bodhisattva is not an opponent of the grocery store owner."

"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva." Tianpeng’s pupils shrank.

Ksitigarbha, Tianpeng naturally knows.

Not long ago, this famous Ksitigarbha of the Buddhist sect attacked Lingshan and even relied on his own power to fight against three Bodhisattvas—Guanyin, Manjushri, etc.—and finally even fought against the Buddha Tathagata.

Although he was not Tathagata’s opponent, the escaped Ksitigarbha can be considered famous in this world today.

That is one of the rising powerhouses among the Quasi-Saint powerhouses.

One must know that in the Journey to the West world, Quasi-Saint powerhouses rarely appear; now that a powerhouse like Ksitigarbha suddenly appears, it is enough to cause a huge shock.

After all, the Buddhist sect is the target of attention for many powerhouses and even Saints today.

"Could it be a legendary Saint?" Tianpeng thought to himself.

"Don't think too much; you will see the owner here soon." Sun Wukong walked to the door and knocked. "Senior Shopkeeper, Senior Shopkeeper, Wukong is here; this time I also brought someone."

Grocery store, in the courtyard.

Wu Feng sat cross-legged, golden light permeating his body.

"Boom..."

Suddenly, Wu Feng opened his eyes, and explosive energy burst out.

Behind him, gods and demons appeared; these gods and demons were kowtowing to Wu Feng.

If a powerhouse were looking at Wu Feng’s physical body at this time, they would be able to discover that Wu Feng’s physical body contained extremely terrifying power.

If that kind of power were to erupt, the destructive force formed would be hard to estimate.

This is Wu Feng cultivating the God-Demon World-Suppressing Method, breeding gods and demons within the particles of his body.

"The Golden Immortal realm has arrived." Wu Feng stood up.

After cultivating the God-Demon World-Suppressing Method, Wu Feng did not rest; he directly absorbed merit and fortune and read Great Dao scriptures to improve his strength.

Whether it was the improvement of the soul, the physical body, or the technique.

The Great Dao scriptures involve some mysteries of the Great Dao.

It can allow Wu Feng to have a deeper comprehension of world laws, which indirectly also improved Wu Feng’s soul.

Merit and fortune, there is even less need to mention that.

Sun Wukong only had a wisp, but under the boost, Wu Feng obtained a mass.

Such a mass, even if a Quasi-Saint powerhouse saw it, they would likely be extremely eager.

For Wu Feng, who only had the strength of a Profound Immortal, the effect was even greater.

Various strange techniques and heavenly treasures combined to let Wu Feng successfully break through from Profound Immortal to Golden Immortal.

Even so.

The Great Dao scriptures and even the merit and fortune had not been exhausted.

However, Wu Feng planned to relax a little.

Wu Feng did not intend to become a cultivation fanatic; increasing the customers of the grocery store is the most important thing.

This is his top priority.

Moreover, at this time, a customer had also arrived.

"Go and see which customer it is." Wu Feng left the courtyard with a smile.

Outside the grocery store.

Sun Wukong knocked for a while and shouted a few times, but there was no response inside, and the door did not open.

"Sun Wukong, did that senior you mentioned go out?" Marshal Tianpeng looked at this scene and asked suspiciously.

"Went out?" Sun Wukong scratched his head. "It seems there is really that possibility."

"How about we come back next time."

"...Next time." Marshal Tianpeng frowned.

One must know that his coming to find Sun Wukong this time was also under the guise of capturing Sun Wukong.

Otherwise, as a Heavenly Court immortal, leaving privately would result in punishment.

"The senior is not here, I have no way." Sun Wukong shrugged.

"Then I understand." Marshal Tianpeng took a deep breath. "Then I will find time to come and find you later."

Just as Sun Wukong and Tianpeng were about to leave the grocery store.

A creaking sound rang out, and the door opened.

Appearing before Sun Wukong was a familiar face.

That powerful and terrifying Senior Shopkeeper.

In Sun Wukong’s heart, Wu Feng is an existence even more terrifying than a Saint.

"It’s Wukong; did you snatch another place?" Wu Feng laughed.

"Senior Shopkeeper, you joke." Sun Wukong answered honestly. "In such a short time, I don't have the opportunity to do that, but this time I brought Bajie; he can become a customer of the grocery store."

"Mm..." Wu Feng looked at the handsome man on the side.

From Sun Wukong’s mouth, Wu Feng knew who this man was.

The future Zhu Bajie, the current Marshal Tianpeng; he was demoted to the mortal world for molesting Chang’e and became a pig demon.

"Tianpeng of the Heavenly Court." Wu Feng said.

"Yes, Senior." Marshal Tianpeng answered respectfully. "According to what Sun Wukong said, you can know my future and my destiny here, and you can even change my destiny."

"That’s right, but to get something, one also needs to pay something," Wu Feng said. "Do you know this?"

Looking at the confused Marshal Tianpeng, Wu Feng laughed. "Wukong, explain it well to Tianpeng."

"Yes, Senior Shopkeeper." Sun Wukong nodded repeatedly. "Bajie, let me explain it to you well."

Subsequently, Sun Wukong introduced the general situation of the grocery store.

For example, to buy things inside, one needs exchange points.

Exchange points can be obtained by exchanging heavenly treasures and related things here.

"Senior, I didn't bring many things this time; can I come back next time?" Tianpeng finally answered.

"No problem." Wu Feng nodded.

"Thank you, Senior." Tianpeng cupped his hands. "Then Tianpeng will take his leave."

"Senior Shopkeeper." Looking at the departing Tianpeng, Sun Wukong rubbed his hands and hesitated.

"Don't worry, Wukong; when Tianpeng consumes, I will give you that portion of exchange points." Wu Feng laughed.

"Thank you, Senior Shopkeeper; see you next time." Sun Wukong also left the grocery store joyfully.

Mount Huaguo peak.

"Great kindness, no need for thanks; Sun Wukong, I hope we have a day to meet again." Tianpeng said in a deep voice. "I will remember this kindness and will definitely thank you then."

"I believe we will meet again soon." Sun Wukong’s eyes radiated light.

He had not tried the Flat Peach Tree yet.
