Journey to the West: Tang Monk Conquers Everything-Chapter 1027: Fuxi

The place where Red Boy resides is the Withered Pine Stream Fire Cloud Cave, while the place where the Three Sovereigns reside in seclusion is also called the Fire Cloud Cave.

Is there some sort of connection between these two?

Jiang Liu pondered for a moment, then shook his head. Well, there’s no way Red Boy and the Three Sovereigns could be connected; that’s a highly unlikely scenario.

Perhaps the identical names of the Fire Cloud Cave are merely a coincidence?

Just like when I was near Chang’an City initially; the Foutu Mountain, where the Blood Tiger King resided, shares the same name as the Foutu Mountain of Master Wuchao.

But could there be any connection between a mere Demon King and the Quasi-Saint level Master Wuchao?

Shaking his head, Jiang Liu dispelled all these chaotic thoughts from his mind and continued flying toward the relics of Mount Buzhou.

As he flew in mid-air, Jiang Liu remembered that the Little White Dragon was still waiting for him at Xuanzang Temple, so he sent him a message.

He told him not to wait any longer and to head straight to Long Eyebrow Temple to rendezvous with Sun Wukong and the others, as he was going to explore the relic of Mount Buzhou.

"Master, is your visit to Mount Buzhou for an important matter? Do you need me to give you a ride?" Although the Little White Dragon’s cultivation level was close to breaking through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal, he was very aware of his identity as a mount.

Moreover, the Little White Dragon knew very well that he was originally just at the Heavenly Immortal Realm, and with broader knowledge, he understood that the title of Crown Prince of the Western Sea Dragon King was insignificant within the Three Realms and Six Paths.

The reason why he could achieve the current level of cultivation, going from a mere Heavenly Immortal to someone capable of contending with a Great Luo Golden Immortal, was all thanks to his master.

"No need, for I must visit the Flame Cloud Sage Cave. I am of Human Clan descent, which is suitable; however, you might not be." With this message, Jiang Liu responded to the Little White Dragon’s message.

After receiving Jiang Liu’s message, the Little White Dragon naturally headed directly towards Long Eyebrow Temple.

In just a moment, Jiang Liu also arrived at the ruins of Mount Buzhou.

"So tall!"

Looking at the ruins of Mount Buzhou, Jiang Liu couldn’t help but murmur silently in his heart.

In his previous life, Mount Everest was considered Earth’s highest peak, known as the summit with the highest elevation, yet it was only over eight thousand meters high.

Translating that, it’s just over twenty thousand feet...

However, after estimating the relics of Mount Buzhou, Jiang Liu found that although Mount Buzhou was broken, the remnants still stood about ten thousand feet high.

It’s unimaginable how tall the complete Mount Buzhou must have been!

Moreover, unlike other peaks, Mount Buzhou, although extremely high, had a smaller cross-sectional area.

From its shape, it really resembled a steep pillar, justifying its title as the Heavenly Pillar.

Although Jiang Liu lacked supernatural powers like Fiery Eyes and Golden Gaze, the ruins of Mount Buzhou were indeed large, having reached the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal.

Therefore, upon arriving at Mount Buzhou, Jiang Liu was able to sense and understand the location of the Flame Cloud Sage Cave.

With a move, he headed directly towards the direction of the Flame Cloud Sage Cave.

Soon, Jiang Liu arrived at the entrance of the Flaming Cloud Sage Cave. Naturally, he dared not barge in, so he called out loudly, "Human Clan Jiang Liu, requesting audience with Earth Sovereign Fuxi!"

Being about to meet the Human Clan Three Sovereigns, naturally, Jiang Liu did not disclose his identity as a Buddhist disciple, nor did he announce his Dharma name. Instead, he claimed his Human Clan identity and name.

"Come in!"

Shortly after Jiang Liu spoke, a gentle voice emanated from the Sage Cave, evidently directed at Jiang Liu.

Hearing this voice, Jiang Liu moved directly to enter the Sage Cave, with his head lowered, behaving very respectfully.

Such respectful behavior, whether when facing Master Zhenyuan, Minghe, or even the Jade Emperor and Tathagata, was never shown.

Not simply because the Three Sovereigns’ status and position are higher than these quasi-saints but more because of his own identity as a Human Clan member.

This respectful demeanor was out of respect for the status of the Human Clan Three Sovereigns.

Jiang Liu might not care much about his identity as a Buddhist disciple, but he felt a strong affiliation with his identity as a Human Clan member.

"Hmm, Jiang Liu, is it? Quite impressive!" With his head still lowered, Jiang Liu could hear Fuxi’s voice, still very gentle, and seemingly full of appreciation for him.

Not sure whether it was a genuine appreciation of Jiang Liu or a regard for acknowledging his Human Clan identity and secular name.

"Thank you for the praise!" Jiang Liu replied.

"Well, you needn’t be so reserved, just be yourself!" Seeing Jiang Liu’s overly formal demeanor, Fuxi spoke.

Upon hearing these words, Jiang Liu finally lifted his head.

Inside the Flame Cloud Sage Cave was the residence of the Three Sovereigns, namely Suiren, the Heavenly Sovereign, Fuxi the Earth Sovereign, and Shennong the Human Sovereign...

However, upon lifting his head, Jiang Liu didn’t see the other two; only Earth Sovereign Fuxi stood before him.

Jiang Liu carefully observed Fuxi before him.

Judging by Fuxi’s attire, it seemed ancient and did not give off a sense of nobility; rather, he wore simple coarse linen clothing.

What does he look like? He appears to be a middle-aged man around fifty, and at this moment, he is gazing at me with gentle eyes.

Character Profile!

Inwardly curious, what does the character profile of Fuxi, who stands above Quasi-Saints, look like? Jiang Liu silently murmured to himself and directly opened Fuxi’s character profile to take a look.

Naturally, a semi-transparent character profile appeared before Jiang Liu’s eyes.

ID: Fuxi (Golden).

Profession: Earth Emperor Clan.

Gender: Male.

Level: 99.

Equipment: River Map (Divine Level): ...

"What a high level!"

Looking at Fuxi’s character profile, Jiang Liu inwardly exclaimed in admiration.

Indeed, Fuxi’s nobility lies in his status, not necessarily in the strength of his powers.

But to think that Fuxi’s level is actually 99?

This is almost reaching the Quasi-Saint Peak, isn’t it?

However, Jiang Liu soon recalled a saying from the Primordial era: Before the birth of the Human Clan, Fuxi and Goddess Nvwa were sibling, so before becoming one of the Three Sovereigns, Fuxi was already a formidable figure.

Therefore, having such a level seems to be reasonable?

Goddess Nvwa’s older brother later became one of the Three Sovereigns?

It seems that Goddess Nvwa took care of her brother and let him share a part of the Human Clan’s destiny, a status that surpasses all Quasi-Saints?

In this way, it also makes sense.

"What? Does my appearance differ somewhat from what you imagined?" Jiang Liu looked at Fuxi’s character profile, a trace of surprise flashing deep in his eyes. Naturally, Fuxi keenly sensed it, yet his face remained gentle as he asked Jiang Liu.

"No, it’s just that Your Majesty’s appearance is even more amiable, contrary to my expectations!" Jiang Liu replied.

These words made Fuxi nod slightly.

On the surface, he remained calm, but whether his heart was as serene as his exterior only he would know.

"May I ask, Your Majesty, besides you in this Flame Cloud Cave, aren’t there two other Majesties? They..." After a moment of silence, Jiang Liu asked curiously.

"The other two are in meditation, wandering the Heavenly Dao, so ordinary matters will not awaken them!" Listening to Jiang Liu’s words, Fuxi explained.

"I am ashamed to have disturbed Your Majesty!" Hearing Fuxi’s words, Jiang Liu responded.

Suiren and Shennong are both wandering the Heavenly Dao, as if in a deep sleep; then, Fuxi must be the same, right?

So, was it my arrival that awakened him?

"No worries! Waking up and being able to see an outstanding descendant of the Human Clan fills my heart with joy!" Hearing Jiang Liu’s words, Fuxi waved his hand, appearing unconcerned.

At this point, with a slight pause, Fuxi followed by saying, "You have come here, surely not just to see me, right? Is there any difficulty you need to inquire about from me?"

"So kind-hearted!"

Listening to Fuxi’s words, Jiang Liu inwardly marveled.

Although Jiang Liu thought that his identity as part of the Human Clan would not be met with indifference, the legendary Three Sovereigns, after all, were something Jiang Liu was truly uncertain about.

Unexpectedly, Fuxi was so kind to him, entirely like an elder.

"Is it just Fuxi being this way towards me? Or is he this way towards all of the Human Clan?" Jiang Liu murmured to himself within.

Of course, it’s their first meeting, so Jiang Liu naturally didn’t know the reason.

Since Fuxi proactively asked him, Jiang Liu naturally couldn’t hold back, saying, "Indeed, I have something to inquire from Your Majesty!"

"Please feel free to speak!" Nodding slightly, Fuxi replied to Jiang Liu.

"The first matter concerns Fahai’s soul!"

Jiang Liu began recounting how he met Fahai, and then after his demise, how his soul inexplicably disappeared, narrating it all to Fuxi.

Fuxi listened attentively, without interrupting or showing any impatience.

"Therefore, I could only come to seek Your Majesty’s help, hoping that Your Majesty’s Innate Divination could help me find Fahai’s whereabouts!" Concluding, Jiang Liu voiced his request.

"Hmm, as you said, this Fahai is indeed extraordinary! Though not having a cultivation level, with such a mind, he is indeed an outstanding figure of our Human Clan. Since his soul has disappeared, I am naturally willing to help you find it!"

Hearing Jiang Liu’s request, Fuxi nodded and showed no intention to decline, readily agreeing.
