Rebirth in Journey to the West: Sun Wukong-Chapter 475 - : Slippery Like a Loach (Second Update! The Outburst Begins After 12 AM!)
Chapter 475: Chapter 475: Slippery Like a Loach (Second Update! The Outburst Begins After 12 AM!)
Boom!
A golden staff materialized behind him and struck heavily on the back of the Primordial Heavenly Venerate, causing him to stagger. He took two steps forward before stabilizing himself. A flash of anger crossed his face, and he angrily swung the Pangu Banner behind him, hitting nothing but air.
Sun Wukong had already dodged a step earlier and did not take any undue risks. He knew very well that this single strike of the staff could not injure the Primordial Heavenly Venerate, who was protected by the auspicious clouds of all heavens. This strike was merely a way to vent the fury in his heart.
So, you think you’re great, Primordial Heavenly Venerate, but didn’t you just get hit by Old Sun here?
“Sun Wukong, you have completely angered me now,”
Since proving the Tao and becoming a Saint, the Primordial Heavenly Venerate had never suffered a setback at the hands of anyone. Even during the divine war to enthrone gods, when he faced off against the Leader of Tongtian, he had handled it calmly, never getting struck directly in close combat.
...
Now, to be suddenly hit by Sun Wukong with a staff, especially in full view of an audience, causing him to stagger—where could the Primordial Heavenly Venerate put his face?
“Creation Mysterious Light!”
A fierce look crossed his face as he raised the Pangu Banner. Strands of Creation Mysterious Light started to coil around the banner, and in the next moment, they enveloped Sun Wukong.
“Shrinking Earth into Inches!”
Sun Wukong was shocked and quickly used the divine skill “Shrinking Earth into Inches” to narrowly dodge several strands of Creation Mysterious Light. The missed strands of light flew away into the distance and struck a floating Immortal Island, instantly turning the whole island to nothingness without leaving a speck of dust behind. The immense destructive power made Sun Wukong’s scalp tingle, and he couldn’t help but gasp in cold air.
This divine weapon of Innate Supreme Treasure caliber, wielded by a Slaying Two Corpses Merit Saint like the Primordial Heavenly Venerate, had truly astonishing destructive power!
“You dodge quite fast! I want to see how long you can keep it up,”
The Primordial Heavenly Venerate had already expanded his Primordial Realm to try and trap Sun Wukong. While this move worked on others, it was ineffective against Sun Wukong. In understanding the power of domains, Sun Wukong was not inferior to these Saints of the Heavenly Dao. His dominion-level Heaven-Breaking Domain retreated back to his surface, helping him withstand the oppression of the Primordial Realm. The Primordial Heavenly Venerate’s attempt to use his realm to constrain Sun Wukong was utterly futile.
However, the Primordial Heavenly Venerate was not in a hurry. If he couldn’t restrict Sun Wukong with his domain, then so be it. With the power of the Pangu Banner, one hit would either kill the demon monkey or severely injure him. He didn’t believe that Sun Wukong could keep slipping away like this!
In the Supreme Pure Heaven’s Greenwave Palace.
“Master, the boundless great calamity has already arrived, and the decree from Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor no longer limits you. Please intervene quickly to save Brother Monkey—it’ll be too late if we delay!”
Luo Bai, watching the tense and dangerous situation in which Sun Wukong continuously dodged the Creation Mysterious Light through the Treasure Mirror, couldn’t help but grow extremely anxious and urgently pleaded with the Sect Hierarch sitting on the throne.
“Don’t worry! Wukong is not so easily dealt with! Experiencing such battles is wholly beneficial and not the least bit harmful to his growth!”
Leader of Tongtian waved his hand and said, “Rest assured, as your teacher, I promised I’d help him, and I definitely will!”
“I can’t stand it anymore, I have to go help Brother Monkey! Forgive me, Master, your disciple must go first, please hurry over!”
The words of the Leader of Tongtian did not reassure Luo Bai. Clenching his teeth, Luo Bai saluted the Leader of Tongtian with cupped hands and his figure transformed into a beam of sword light that shot out of the Greenwave Palace, heading toward the Heavenly Ladder.
“This kid is really impatient!”
Watching Luo Bai’s retreating figure, the Leader of Tongtian shook his head with a slight amused smile and sighed, “Well, tangling with real powerhouses will teach you what a gap in strength really looks like. With the Immortal-Slaying Sword Array protecting you, even if that Primordial Heavenly guy wants to hurt you, it won’t be so easy!”

After Sun Wukong returned the Immortal-Slaying Sword, the Sword of Trapping Immortals, and the Sword of Annihilation to the Leader of Tongtian, the Leader did not keep them for himself but passed them on to Luo Bai. At the Leader’s level of Realm, he no longer needed to rely on the Immortal-Slaying Sword Array.
As for how much power Luo Bai could unleash from the Immortal-Slaying Sword Array, that depended on his own understanding of the Sword Dao!
In the Heavenly Court, within the Ninth Layer of Heaven.
Sun Wukong exerted his full body technique to dodge the strikes of the Creation Mysterious Light. Time and again, the Creation Mysterious Light narrowly missed him, several times by mere millimeters, shaving off quite a few of his hairs.
In the eyes of the Primordial Heavenly Venerate, Sun Wukong’s movements seemed erratic like a specter, slippery as an eel, making it impossible for the Creation Mysterious Light to hit him. However, only Sun Wukong himself knew that his successful dodging of one attack after another was not attributed to an unbelievable body technique but entirely due to the assistance of the Void-Breaking Divine Eye.
The Void-Breaking Divine Eye had been activated by Sun Wukong early on to the Fourth Phase, the Void-Breaking Starry Eyes state, allowing him to clearly see each of the Creation Mysterious Light’s strikes and even anticipate its trajectory. This was precisely why Sun Wukong could dodge the blasts of the Creation Mysterious Light in the nick of time, a feat not even other Heavenly Dao Saints could accomplish.
However, constantly dodging was not a solution. The Void-Breaking Divine Eye’s Fourth Phase, the Void-Breaking Starry Eyes, consumed a significant amount of Chaos Primordial Force, and it was not possible to maintain it indefinitely. Otherwise, Sun Wukong would not ordinarily keep to the First Phase of the Void-Breaking Divine Eye to adjust.
The Chaos Primordial Force stored within the Chaos Divine Pearl had been depleted, and there was no way to replenish it. If this consumption continued, once the Chaos Primordial Force was exhausted, he would be like a fish on the chopping board, completely at the mercy of the Primordial Heavenly Venerate without any power to fight back.
“Leng Xuan, you guys better leave quickly! If this delay continues, I really won’t be able to hold on much longer!”
Glancing toward the direction of the Southern Heavenly Gate, he saw Leng Xuan and others protecting Zi Lan Fairy, reaching the gate, but they were fully blocked by the Heavenly Court immortals and gods, led by the Jade Emperor. They had no chance to break through, and were completely embroiled in desperation. Seeing this, Sun Wukong felt increasingly anxious. If Leng Xuan and the others didn’t leave, Sun Wukong himself wouldn’t be able to escape. This would soon lead to the exhaustion of his strength!
“Amitabha! Since you’ve come to the Heavenly Court, don’t think of leaving so easily!”
Since the Primordial Heavenly Venerate took action, the Tathagata Buddha had stepped aside to watch the battle coldly. Noticing that part of Sun Wukong’s attention was always on the Flower-Fruit Mountain masters, Tathagata Buddha made a seven or eight parts accurate guess about Sun Wukong’s plan in his heart. He chanted a Buddhist mantra and gestured toward the direction of the Southern Heavenly Gate with a wave of his sleeve robe.
