Rebirth in Journey to the West: Sun Wukong-Chapter 740 - 741: Secret News, The Great Thousand Worlds (First Update!)

The return of the Myriad Races, does that mean the real power struggle of the Three Realms is about to begin?

The era of great strife is about to officially commence!

"Why tell me this? Aren’t you afraid I, Old Sun, will cause disruption?"

Sun Wukong raised his eyes to look at Demon Ancestor Luo Hu, his eyes narrowing slightly.

With Sun Wukong’s current strength, if he knew the exact timing, it wouldn’t be difficult to cut off the Myriad Races’ path of return. All he needed to do was set up a barrier to temporarily seal the entire Three Realms Space, and the connection between the Myriad Races and the Three Realms Space would be severed. The homelands of the races would not be able to connect to the Three Realms Space, turning the return into a mere fantasy.

"You won’t!"

Demon Ancestor Luo Hu said with confidence, shaking his head, "The return of the Myriad Races, the battle that will shock the world, is the best path for you to validate your strength through power!"

Sun Wukong smiled: "Luo Hu, you really do understand Old Sun quite well!"

Indeed, Sun Wukong would not sever the path of the Myriad Races’ return. With the return of the Myriad Races, there would certainly be a series of power struggle wars erupting, offering the best opportunity to face the powerful experts of the Myriad Races in combat!

To validate one’s way through power and unite with the Dao by Slaying Three Corpses are different, the former requiring continuous battles. Only by engaging in constant combat and absorbing enough Battle Qi can one break through the limits of the physical body and validate the Dao through strength.

The reason why the Great God Pangu was able to validate his way through strength and eventually perform the Heaven-Opening was that he continuously battled with those Chaotic God-Demons within Chaos, pushing beyond the limits of his own body until he finally achieved the Primordial Wuji Da Luo Gold Immortal Realm.

Sun Wukong, who now seeks to validate the Dao through strength, also needs such opportunities—to fight with different powerful adversaries and to constantly push his limits in all aspects, elevating his physical body to a new height!

Sun Wukong did not engage in combat with Demon Ancestor Luo Hu, because there was no need; among high-level experts, there is an ability to assess each other’s strength. Although Demon Ancestor Luo Hu had only taken action once, Sun Wukong had already deduced the Cultivation Realm of Demon Ancestor Luo Hu.

Primordial Taiji Da Luo Gold Immortal!

Demon Ancestor Luo Hu had recovered to the Cultivation Realm of Primordial Taiji Da Luo Gold Immortal! Stronger than when he contended against Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor in the past!

"That old fellow Hong Jun must have gone to the Great Thousand Worlds by now, for that place is indeed where the true powerhouses should be. Wukong, prepare yourself well, as perhaps soon, we too will head to that world where the mighty gather and heroes vie for supremacy."

The Great Thousand Worlds, eh?

Sun Wukong’s eyes narrowed slightly, it was not the first time he heard this term, but it had always been a vague notion. This was the first time someone like Demon Ancestor Luo Hu formally brought it up. Outside of the Three Realms, does such a higher-level world truly exist?

"Of course they exist!"

In response to Sun Wukong’s question, Demon Ancestor Luo Hu gave an affirmative answer, "Three thousand worlds refer to the Great Thousand Worlds. Beyond the Great Thousand Worlds, there are many Minor Thousand Worlds, countless in fact. The Three Realms are just one of the Minor Thousand Worlds. Within the Minor Thousand Worlds, Primordial Taiji Da Luo Gold Immortals and Primordial Wuji Da Luo Gold Immortals are already at the peak, but in the Great Thousand Worlds, this is just a starting point! Only when one’s cultivation breakthroughs to Primordial Taiji Da Luo Gold Immortal or Primordial Wuji Da Luo Gold Immortal, does one qualify to traverse the dimensional barriers and reach the Great Thousand Worlds!"

"This fact is not widely known within the Three Realms. In the past, only Pangu and that old fellow Hong Jun knew about it. Now, perhaps it includes the three disciples of the old Hong Jun, and of course, you’re one more!"

"I see!"

Sun Wukong suddenly nodded his understanding. No wonder the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord always seemed indifferent and inaction, and Leader of Tongtian seldom interfered with the affairs of the Three Realms. It wasn’t that they truly didn’t care, but rather, in their eyes, the power and benefits of the Three Realms were far less attractive than the allure of the Great Thousand Worlds!

As mighty beings, who wouldn’t want to explore higher-dimensional worlds, who wouldn’t want to battle against stronger opponents and allow their own strength to be greatly enhanced?

Heavenly Dao Saints can be said to have reached the pinnacle of the Three Realms. For veteran Saints like the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord and Leader of Tongtian, their true pursuit is to further enhance their cultivation, to Slay the Three Corpses to Achieve the Dao and attain Primordial Taiji Da Luo Gold Immortal status. Only by reaching that state can they, as Demon Ancestor Luo Hu mentioned, break through the dimensional barrier and enter the Great Thousand Worlds.

However, something Sun Wukong couldn’t understand was, since Demon Ancestor Luo Hu had already attained the Primordial Taiji Da Luo Gold Immortal Realm, why would he still linger in the Demonic Realm?

With his strength, opening the channel between the Two Realms to go to the Three Realms, then breaking through the dimensional barrier to the Great Thousand Worlds, should not be difficult!

"Do you think dimensional barriers are something you can just break through whenever you want?"

Demon Ancestor Luo Hu rolled his eyes in speechlessness, "Unless you become a Chaos Saint, even Great God Pangu, who was a Primordial Wuji Da Luo Gold Immortal, failed to break through the dimensional barrier. He met his demise with both his body destroyed and his Dao vanished. Alone, I simply cannot do it!" ƒreewebɳovel.com

"Wasn’t Great God Pangu’s death due to the backlash suffered from exerting too much strength in the Heaven-Opening creation?"

Sun Wukong’s eyes widened; this was the legend that had been passed down from Ancient Primeval times. Could it be false?

"Heaven-Opening? Indeed, that happened, but the creation of land, not necessarily! The Ancient Primeval was a Minor Thousand World that was spontaneously born from Chaos, not created by Pangu. At that time, Pangu’s cultivation strength had already reached its limit in the Ancient Primeval, which is why he sought to open Heaven – to break through the dimensional barrier and enter the Great Thousand Worlds. It’s just a pity that he was alone and ultimately too frail, ending up with both his body destroyed and his Dao vanished. Tragic and lamentable indeed!"

As Demon Ancestor Luo Hu spoke, he glanced at Sun Wukong, and with a cold sneer said, "What, don’t you believe it? I am not so low as to deceive you with such matters! Do you know why the old coot Hong Jun took Nuwa with him to the thirty-six layers of Da Lou Heavens? It was to swiftly elevate Nuwa to the state of Primordial Taiji Da Luo Gold Immortal level and join forces with him to break the dimensional barrier!"

"Nuwa is of the Heavenly Demon Body with a unique physique; her cultivation faces virtually no bottlenecks. Moreover, with the immense merit from creating the Human Race, even though she attained her sainthood through merit, after becoming a saint, it was much easier for her than others to Slay the Three Corpses to Achieve the Dao. In this regard, not even Hong Jun’s three disciples can compare! Thousands of years ago, the two of them successfully opened Heaven and broke through the dimensional barrier to the Great Thousand Worlds. Now it should soon be my turn!"

Sun Wukong unconsciously swallowed hard, as the words Demon Ancestor Luo Hu was telling him now completely overturned his understanding of the world. It seemed that the so-called Pangu’s Heaven-Opening, Hong Jun retiring to Zixiao Palace were nothing but lies to deceive people; Pangu failed to open Heaven and died of severe injuries sustained while attempting to break through the dimensional barrier, and Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor retired to the Zixiao Palace with Goddess Nuwa in order to break through the dimensional barrier with her to the Great Thousand Worlds!
