Chapter 87
Now that he heard it, it was really like this.
"Teacher, there is no such powerhouse behind this disciple," Tongtian replied.
"No such powerhouse?" Dao Ancestor Hongjun frowned; this was not the answer he wanted.
The ability to lift the Investiture of the Gods was not something the Tongtian before him could do.
Dao Ancestor Hongjun did not believe that there was no one behind Tongtian Jiaozhu.
"Teacher, although there is no such powerhouse behind this disciple, this disciple has seen a similar senior, but whether he belongs to the Primordial World, this disciple does not know," Tongtian Jiaozhu explained.
"Then, Tongtian, do you know what the purpose of that powerhouse is?" Dao Ancestor Hongjun asked again.
"This disciple does not know." Tongtian Jiaozhu shook his head. "However, that senior should not harbor any malice toward the Primordial World."
"Not harbor any malice?" Dao Ancestor Hongjun's eyes were exceptionally deep.
If the other party harbored malice, then for Hongjun and for the Primordial World, it would have unimaginable consequences.
Not harboring malice was the best.
However, Hongjun did not fully believe Tongtian's words.
After all, the thoughts of that powerhouse might not be something Tongtian, as a Saint, could see through.
Saints, when facing existences below them, were almost omniscient.
But when facing an existence more powerful than them, being omniscient was a joke.
"Tongtian, then do you know what level that powerhouse's strength has reached?" Dao Ancestor Hongjun said in a deep voice.
"Strength?" Tongtian Jiaozhu looked at Hongjun with hesitation, somewhat uncertain.
"Speak, Tongtian, no matter what your thoughts are, your teacher will not blame you," Dao Ancestor Hongjun said, shaking his head.
He also saw that there was some hesitation in Tongtian's heart.
"Teacher." Tongtian Jiaozhu took a deep breath. "If my estimation is correct, that senior's strength might be even more powerful than yours, Teacher."
"Hmm..." Dao Ancestor Hongjun was silent for a moment and nodded. "Tongtian, then where is that senior?"
"Teacher, that senior stays on Mount Huaguo and has opened a grocery store that sells all kinds of things," Tongtian Jiaozhu said. "If you go, Teacher, I believe that senior will also be very welcoming."
"Selling all kinds of things." Dao Ancestor Hongjun was slightly stunned.
That senior's interests were quite interesting.
Dao Ancestor Hongjun had not thought of this point either.
"Teacher, the things that senior sells are not simple at all. I even saw a Chaos Supreme Treasure inside," Tongtian Jiaozhu laughed.
"Chaos Supreme Treasure." A look of shock flashed in Hongjun's eyes.
Originally, he thought that the senior only had such interests and that the things sold could not be too precious; naturally, things like spiritual treasures and innate supreme treasures should still exist.
But a Chaos Supreme Treasure.
That also had an important role for powerhouses at the Heavenly Dao level.
For instance, in Hongjun's hands currently, there was no truly complete Chaos Supreme Treasure, only the incomplete Jade Plate of Creation.
Naturally, the Jade Plate of Creation did not have much use for Hongjun, who was merged with the Heavenly Dao.
But a Chaos Supreme Treasure.
That went without saying; it was also very noble for Heavenly Dao-level powerhouses.
Pangu, who wanted to prove the Great Dao at that time, had the Pangu Axe in his hand, which was a Chaos Supreme Treasure.
"I understand." Hongjun came back to his senses. "Tongtian, then you go back first."
"Yes, Teacher, this disciple takes his leave." Tongtian Jiaozhu nodded and walked away slowly.
After Tongtian Jiaozhu left, Dao Ancestor Hongjun remained there, deep in thought.
Should he go to Mount Huaguo to see that legendary powerhouse who might possess Great Dao-level strength?
At this moment, Hongjun was somewhat hesitant.
If that Great Dao-level powerhouse had bad intentions, he might never return.
"However, that powerhouse hasn't made a move against me yet, so he should be like Tongtian, not harboring any major bad intentions," Dao Ancestor Hongjun muttered to himself.
"So, should I go to Mount Huaguo, or should I not go to Mount Huaguo?"
Not long after.
Hongjun still left the Zixiao Palace and headed toward Mount Huaguo.
He still intended to meet that legendary senior.
Mount Huaguo.
Sun Wukong and Tianpeng returned here from the Heavenly Court.
"Finally, I can rest easy." Tianpeng breathed a sigh of relief. Stealing things in the Heavenly Court earlier had kept his heart tense.
He feared that if an accident occurred and a powerhouse appeared, it would be impossible to even leave the Heavenly Court, let alone come to Mount Huaguo.
Now that they had arrived at Mount Huaguo and the grocery store was right before their eyes, Tianpeng finally relaxed a little.
"Bajie, this is just the beginning. In a while, the Heavenly Court will send people to capture us," Sun Wukong laughed.
"So now we must race against time and quickly go to the senior's place to see if we can use the treasures in our hands to transform them into things that can improve our strength," Tianpeng said quickly.
The strength of a Taiyi Golden Immortal could not give Tianpeng too much confidence.
Therefore, Tianpeng's current goal was to break through to the Da Luo Golden Immortal realm.
But Tianpeng also understood a fact: even a Da Luo could not let them escape from the Great Calamity.
After all, the Fomen had Quasi-Saint powerhouses; would they allow them, the protagonists of the Great Calamity, to stay on Mount Huaguo in peace?
Naturally, Sun Wukong and Tianpeng had never thought that this Great Calamity was also related to the two Western Saints.
A Quasi-Saint was already extremely difficult to deal with.
A Saint, for Sun Wukong and Tianpeng, was also somewhat unreachable.
"Alright, let's go." Sun Wukong nodded upon hearing this.
Having harvested so much in the Heavenly Court, he also did it to be able to go to the grocery store and exchange it for exchange points.
A moment later.
"Sun Wukong, Tianpeng, long time no see." Wu Feng looked at the two people before him.
"Senior Shopkeeper, it shouldn't have been long since we left, right?" Sun Wukong asked in confusion.
"Haha, the time in the Heavenly Court and the mortal realm is different," Wu Feng shook his head.
"Oh." Sun Wukong suddenly realized.
Tianpeng didn't say anything; he knew about this point.
"It looks like you two have brought back some good things from the Heavenly Court." Wu Feng revealed a smile.
Both of them were in the Heavenly Court before, and now they had suddenly come over, and looking at Tianpeng's fluctuating state of mind, Wu Feng could guess what the situation was.
"Senior, I did obtain some things, and this was only because of the Great Sage's help that I had such a harvest," Tianpeng said.
"Bajie, no need to be polite. Along the way, if it weren't for you pointing out which immortal's place was where, we wouldn't have been able to take away those immortals' treasures," Sun Wukong laughed.
"Alright, you two have betrayed the Heavenly Court together, so you are grasshoppers on the same rope; there is no need to be humble with each other," Wu Feng shook his head.
"Senior is right." Tianpeng nodded.
Now that Tianpeng had no other path, advancing and retreating with Sun Wukong was Zhu Bajie's choice.
"Very well, then take out your things."
Immediately after, Sun Wukong and Tianpeng took out their respective items.
Needless to say.
Among so many customers, the quantity of treasures Sun Wukong and Tianpeng had this time was the largest.
Anyway, valuable or not, they were all here.
However, although the quantity looked large, compared to Ksitigarbha, or even Tongtian Jiaozhu, the exchange points obtained would definitely be much less.
Ksitigarbha had once brought over the treasure vault of a Buddhist pagoda in Lingshan.
The treasures that could be collected by Lingshan would definitely not be too bad.
The collection of the Saint Tongtian Jiaozhu was even more so.
But in the Heavenly Court, Sun Wukong and Tianpeng would harvest every immortal they encountered.
They couldn't deal with those powerful Da Luo Golden Immortals, or even Quasi-Saint powerhouses, so they could only set their sights on other immortals.
Looking at the hill-high treasures, Wu Feng shook his head.
Fortunately, the grocery store had become larger due to an upgrade, otherwise, with so many things appearing, they probably wouldn't even have a place to stand.
From this comparison, one could see how many things Sun Wukong and Tianpeng had taken.
"Let me see how many points you have each obtained." Wu Feng waved his right hand, and a ray of light sprinkled on these spiritual treasures, and at the same time, the spiritual treasures disappeared instantly.
