Chapter 520

This was the Qi Tian Da Sheng he had always envisioned.

"Just this alone isn't enough—let me lend you a hand!"

Luo Fu flicked his finger lightly, and a drop of red blood flew from his fingertip into Sun Wukong's body.

Luo Fu still held great fondness for Sun Dasheng.

After all, his entire childhood had largely been spent in Sun Dasheng's company.

Within his means, Luo Fu naturally saw no harm in helping Sun Dasheng.

Moreover, this mission from the chat group was to reverse the Western Journey calamity.

Sun Wukong, as the protagonist of the Western Journey, was undoubtedly a vital link in reversing the calamity.

As the blood drop entered his body, Sun Wukong's form swelled further, his aura growing ever more ferocious; from his golden-metal eyes blazed endless fury and savage battle intent, and he suddenly transformed into an ultimate ferocious ape.

The blood drop Luo Fu had just injected into Sun Wukong was the essence-blood of the Chaos Demon Ape.

The Chaos Demon Ape was one of the three thousand Chaos Divine Demons slain by Pan Gu; Luo Fu had just refined the remains of those three thousand Chaos Divine Demons, which naturally included the Chaos Demon Ape.

Sun Wukong's true form was one of the Four Fiendish Monkeys of the World—the Spirit-Ming Stone Monkey—and the origin of the bloodline of these Four Fiendish Monkeys was precisely the Chaos Demon Ape.

The essence-blood of the Chaos Demon Ape was undoubtedly an ultimate treasure for Sun Wukong, one of the Four Fiendish Monkeys.

With the aid of the essence-blood, Sun Wukong's inner aura surged violently; though he had already been at the peak of Taiyi Jin Xian, after the Chaos Demon Ape's essence-blood purified his bloodline, his entire aura now carried a faint hint of Da Luo energy.

Yet Sun Wukong felt none of these changes within him—his mind held only one thought:

"Kill the bald monk!"

Without giving Buddha a single chance to react, Sun Wukong gripped the Ruyi Jingu Bang with both hands, soared high into the air, and brought the staff crashing down with all his might onto Buddha's head.

Though Sun Wukong's cultivation base had risen significantly, the gap between Taiyi Jin Xian and Quasi-Saint Realm remained immense.

Facing Sun Wukong's attack, Buddha did not dodge—he merely lifted his hand slightly.

"Amitabha, Wukong, such uncontrolled rage is wrong. Come back with me and reflect properly!"

The Buddha, still speaking with radiant, solemn, compassionate grace, raised his right hand, which transformed into a colossal Buddha hand reaching for Sun Wukong.

To Buddha, Sun Wukong was but an ant—impossible to escape his Mount Wuzhi.

Thus, Buddha paid little attention to him; his focus remained largely on Luo Fu.

In his view, Luo Fu was the greatest obstacle in this journey.

Boom!

The Ruyi Jingu Bang, carrying ferocious force, slammed into the colossal Buddha palm.

Under the full power of the ultimate ferocious ape, Sun Wukong's strike could shatter a star—but to Buddha, a Quasi-Saint, it was like scratching an itch.

The colossal Buddha palm showed no change under Sun Wukong's full-force blow; it continued its slow, steady descent toward him.

"Buddha old man, you won't trap Old Sun!"

Still blinded by rage and battle intent, Sun Wukong felt no fear or retreat—his mind held only one word:

Fight!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Driven by the battle intent in his chest, Sun Wukong's form and aura continued to surge; each strike made his body swell slightly and his aura rise a fraction more.

The Ruyi Jingu Bang hammered relentlessly against the colossal Buddha palm, unleashing thunderous roars.

Despite Sun Wukong's strikes, nearly rivaling Da Luo power, the colossal Buddha palm remained utterly unmoved, pressing down with overwhelming force and seizing Sun Wukong in its grip.

"Amitabha, Wukong, cease struggling. Reflect peacefully within my Buddha palm. You are destined to the Buddha's path—only by calming your temper and quelling your rage can you become a Buddha in the future!"

Seeing he had subdued Sun Wukong, Buddha chanted a Buddhist mantra, his voice resonating with waves of Sanskrit chants.

He had discerned that Sun Wukong had lost his reason—his consciousness now held only savage battle intent.

To this, Buddha cared little; guiding all beings to salvation was the hallmark of Naishifu Sect.

Whether Sun Wukong was merely at the peak of Taiyi Jin Xian or had broken through to Da Luo Realm, given time, Buddha could easily convert him.

Of course, Sun Wukong had some lineage—direct conversion was impossible.

But planting a seed of conversion within his consciousness, making him more inclined toward Buddhism, was still feasible.

"Buddha old man, you won't convert Old Sun!"

But to Buddha's surprise, his conversion chants had no effect on Sun Wukong—in fact, under the stimulation of the chants, Sun Wukong regained a sliver of awareness.

Buddha had no idea that this Sun Wukong was no longer the naive, ignorant one of old; through the chat group, Sun Wukong had learned the future and understood Buddhism's methods all too clearly.

How could Sun Wukong fail to be wary of Yuxifang Sect's infamous conversion techniques?

Subconsciously, Sun Wukong had always been wary of Buddhism's "You are destined to the Buddha's path."

More importantly, Sun Wukong was one of the Four Fiendish Monkeys, a blood descendant of the Chaos Demon Ape.

The Chaos Demon Ape was the ultimate ferocious ape who fought heaven and earth; when Pan Gu slew the three thousand Chaos Divine Demons, though the Chaos Demon Ape was not the strongest, he was the fiercest in battle.
