Just as Ye Xuan was comprehending the Way of Karma and seeking to grasp its mysteries, Sun Wukong returned from Mount Fangcun to Flower-Fruit Mountain. He first killed Chaos Demon King, one of the Seventy-Two Demon Kings, with a single blow, and then prepared to find a suitable weapon.

However, ordinary iron weapons in ordinary countries, even Human World weapons, are no more than rotten wood in the hands of a Golden Immortal like him, easily destroyed with a slight shake.

However, just as he was feeling down, he learned from the demons that beneath the East Sea lay a Dragon Palace, filled with countless treasures. If he could borrow even one of them, he could travel the entire world at large.

"Good, we're neighbors. Let me, Old Sun, make a trip to the East Sea Dragon Palace and find a suitable weapon!"

Sun Wukong Somersault Cloud into the air, somersaulting across the sky for millions of miles, heading towards the East Sea.

On the shores of the East Sea, towering waves surge into the sky.

After countless years, the East Sea Dragon Palace, though no longer as glorious as it was during the reign of the ancient Ancestor Dragon, still radiates a precious light.

Dragon King Ao Guang of the East Sea, was sitting on the dragon throne in the Crystal Palace when he felt a tremor coming from the ground beneath his feet.

It is a supreme divine weapon from the East Sea, used to suppress the surging waves of countless ships.

This treasure was destined to belong to Sun Wukong.

Before the other party even arrived, it caused a loud roar.

Seeing this, Dragon King Ao Guang of the East Sea, also showed a hint of frustration.

Back then, Qiu Niu and eight others claimed to be the sons of the Ancestor Dragon, possessing immense power, and attempted to sweep across the Human Race land and recreate the glory of ancient times.

As a result, Qiu Niu and his companions were suppressed under the Nine Provinces by Human Emperor the Da Yu, the last of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.

The Nine Cauldrons of Kyushu!

Each cauldron is nothing more than a top-grade Postnatal Spiritual Treasure.

However, once the Nine Cauldrons are combined into one, they can be upgraded to a Postnatal Supreme Treasure, and can even borrow the power of Human Race destiny.

There is also a Sea-Calming Divine Needle, a Postnatal Supreme Treasure, which is placed in the East Sea to suppress the power of the Four Seas.

Over the years, Dragon King Ao Guang of the East Sea, saw that no one had taken it and wanted to take it, but he was stopped by Candle Dragon. Even his efforts were in vain, as Candle Dragon had already seen in the future that a destined person would come to take the Sea-Calming Divine Needle.

Furthermore, people from the Buddhist Sect also came and told him not to resist when someone came to take the Sea-Calming Divine Needle, and to let him take it.

Within the Buddhist Sect, there are two Grand Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal.

One is the Saint Zhunti, one of the oldest Sage and the number one person in the world. He is the junior brother of the Saint Jieyin and his own strength is also extremely powerful.

The second is Daoist Qiongxiao, who achieved sainthood by making Forty-Eight Great Vows through the Method of Becoming a Sage in Dreams.

She also holds a prominent position in the Buddhist Sect, being the Mother of Ten Thousand Buddhas and Saint Jieyin.

Back then, it was this person who taught Da Yu how to establish the Sea-Calming Divine Needle and helped Da Yu forge the Nine Cauldrons.

The other party sent someone to take it away, and although Ao Guang was reluctant, he had no choice but to agree.

"Report!"

"Your Majesty, a demon with a hairy face and a thunder god's mouth has barged in, saying he wants to borrow a heavy weapon!"

Before the Shrimp Soldier could finish reporting, Sun Wukong had already burst into the main hall like a golden ray of light.

After exchanging pleasantries, Ao Guang ordered some weapons to be brought out.

However, even with divine weapons like the nine-pronged fork and the halberd weighing tens of thousands of catties, Sun Wukong still felt they were too light, and his face showed a look of dissatisfaction.

"Old Dragon King, there are rumors circulating that the Dragon Palace is full of treasures. Bring out just one treasure, and I, Old Sun, will leave immediately."

Upon hearing this, Ao Guang's face darkened. Who was gossiping behind his back? The Dragon Palace does contain many treasures, after all, the Four Seas have been in the hands of the Dragon Clan since countless ages ago.

Over the years, some powerful spiritual treasures have also been sent out.

However, among the dragons, there is still Candle Dragon in charge. Candle Dragon is an ancient and powerful being. Even if he takes away some Innate Spiritual Treasure, it is only a drop in the ocean.

But these are all treasures of the Dragon Palace. If they were really taken out, wouldn't that make him miserable?

Seeing the displeasure on his face, Turtle Prime Minister quickly spoke up, his gaze fixed on a supreme treasure radiating endless divine light within the Crystal Palace.

"Your Majesty, beneath the East Sea lies a Sea-Calming Divine Iron left behind by Da Yu during his flood control efforts, used to suppress the sea's eye."

"If Your Majesty has any skill, you may take it and use it as a weapon."

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong also gave a cold snort.

"I, Old Sun, want to see what kind of treasure I can't lift."

In an instant, everyone was plunged into the dark, lightless seabed.

Within the deep sea, a Tongtian, impenetrable pillar of black iron stood firm, covered with ancient Dao patterns, faintly emanating a majestic aura that suppressed eternity and Qiankun the world.

The Sea-Calming Divine Needle!

It was during the time of Da Yu's flood control efforts that this Postnatal Supreme Treasure was forged, drawing upon the collective fortune of Human Race and the prayers of all spirits, and using the power of supreme divine iron.

In its normal state, it weighs 36,000 catties. For every inch it grows, its weight doubles. It reaches the Thirty-Three Heavens above and the Nine Netherworlds Springs below. Ordinary immortals, let alone wielding it, would have their primordial spirit shattered by its heavy killing aura even if they came close.

"This is the most precious treasure! Let me, Old Sun, show you my skills!"

Sun Wukong's eyes gleamed with divine light, and he immediately leaped to the front of the divine iron.

In an instant, as if sensing the arrival of the Lord of Destiny, the Sea-Calming Divine Needle, which had been dormant for billions of years, suddenly burst forth with a soaring golden light upon contact.

"Buzz!"

A tremendous roar spread from the seabed, stirring up a towering tsunami. The rusty black iron shell peeled away, revealing a gleaming golden band inside, engraved with a line of dragon and phoenix seal script.

"The Ruyi Jingu Bang)

"Small! Small! Small!"

As Sun Wukong shouted at it, the divine pillar that supported heaven and earth obediently shortened to two lengths.

Holding it in his palm, Sun Wukong felt a surge of fighting spirit, connected to his very being, erupt within his primordial spirit. With a casual wave of his hand, a rift was torn open in the void, and the surrounding seawater was instantly emptied by this powerful force.

"My darling, my darling!"

Sun Wukong laughed heartily, raised his staff and shattered the East Sea, his murderous aura soaring straight to the heavens.

Dao Seeking Palace, Ye Xuan, who was in Secluded Cultivation, slowly opened his eyes, his gaze traversing layers of void, locking onto the golden figure in the East Sea.

"Good!"

Seeing this, Ye Xuan smiled slightly. In the Yin-Yang Heavens behind him, the Sea-Calming Divine Needle of the Inner World also trembled at the same time, but unlike in the Primordial World, it did not require the Stone Monkey to retrieve it.

The Sea-Calming Divine Needle transformed into a golden light and entered Flower-Fruit Mountain, becoming the companion treasure of the Chaos Demon Ape.

"When the Journey to the West begins, you will be conceived and born, and go to the Western Paradise to fight for your life."

Looking at the Stone Embryo, Ye Xuan remained calm.

"Boom!"

The Stone Embryo trembled as Ye Xuan spoke.

When the Journey to the West begins, a struggle for survival will also begin in the Inner World.

With each tribulation completed, Ye Xuan could borrow a wisp of the power of the Heavenly Dao to advance further, summoning some remnant souls of demon gods to merge into the Three Thousand Demon Gods.

As for the Chaos Demon Ape and the others, when they finish their journey to the Journey to the West, they will not become Buddhas on the spot like Golden Cicada and the others. Instead, they will only seek their own power and die at Ye Xuan's hands, just like in the Primordial Great Luo Golden Immortal Creation Tribulation, helping him to enter the realm of Hunyuan Wuji Da Luo Jinxian and serving as his stepping stones.

Thinking of this, Ye Xuan's expression became even more indifferent. In Pangu's hand was a Chaos Supreme Treasure, the Jade Plate of Creation.

Once the Journey to the West is complete, Ye Xuan's natal treasure, the Great Dao Treasure Gourd, will also be able to nurture the Three Thousand Great Daos. It is not only Heavenly Dao Divine Artifact, combining offense and defense, but also allows one to comprehend the Three Thousand Great Daos.

"Back then, Pangu, like me, slaughtered Three Thousand Demon Gods to obtain a Jade Plate of Creation?"

Thinking of this, Ye Xuan frowned, but he didn't pay it any mind. Ye Xuan was confident that his Three Thousand Heavens were stronger than the Great Dao of Pangu's Great Dao of Strength.

Among the Three Thousand Demon Gods, the only one who did not conceive was Pangu.

Ye Xuan, like Laozi and the Dao Ancestor, felt a slight apprehension towards this creation god, and planned to wait until he reached the Primordial Great Luo Golden Immortal before giving it a try.

With this in mind, Ye Xuan also went into Secluded Cultivation.

In the East Sea, Sun Wukong possessed the Sea-Calming Divine Needle), and he also wanted to acquire another set of equipment, a set of armor for self-defense.

When Ao Guang saw that the Sea-Calming Divine Needle had been taken away by an unknown monkey, he felt a pang of heartache. Normally, he would have sacrificed the monkey's armor, but not today. The loss was too great for him to bear. He immediately struck the Dragon Bell to summon the other Dragon Kings to take its place.

It's just a suit of armor, and you can't even bear to part with it?

Upon hearing this, the other Four Seas Dragon Kings were speechless. If word got out, outsiders would probably think there was a famine in the Four Seas. The three Dragon Kings each offered to provide a set of armor.

However, upon learning that this was Buddhist Sect instruction, they reluctantly gave up.

Each person provides one piece of equipment and is allowed to leave.

After grabbing his weapon, Sun Wukong cast a water-avoiding spell and left the East Sea.

Spring came and autumn went, and another hundred years passed. Dao Seeking Palace, Ye Xuan comprehended one-tenth of the Great Dao of Karma, and finally gained a sliver of insight.

"Cause and effect are fate, while effect and cause are destiny; the Way of Karma is the Way of Destiny."

"It is because of the Karma that the Daoist Qiongxiao chose Da Yu and became the Mother of Ten Thousand Buddhas that Sun Wukong was able to take away the Sea-Calming Divine Needle Bang (the Fate that stabilizes the sea)."

"There is also Fate in which Sun Wukong takes away the Sea-Calming Divine Needle), Daoist Qiongxiao of Qiongxiao) becomes the Mother of Ten Thousand Buddhas. Only then does a Karma arise between the two."

The principles of Karma and effect and Fate are two sides of the same coin.

Fate is Fixed Number, but fortune is Variable Number!

The effect comes first, then the cause; it's all fate.

First comes the cause, then the effect; that is destiny.

Every cause produces an endless number of effects.

After changing the cause, what produces a different result is Fate itself.

As Ye Xuan uttered his words of wisdom, they resonated throughout the heavens and earth, causing a tremor in all the Three Thousand Heavens.

Just as he was pondering this, another Electronic Sound entered Ye Xuan's ears.

[Ding-dong!]

[Detected that Zhenyuanzi Ancestor Minghe also wish to participate in the Journey to the West. They have already gone to Spirit Mountain to request an audience with Qiongxiao and the others. Please select from the options below.]

[Option 1: Obstruct the Ancestor Minghe and his companions, complete the mission, and you will receive a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.]

[Option Two: Ignore it, let it participate, complete the task, and you will receive 10% of the power of the Transaction Demon God's Origin Power.]

Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan was taken aback, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

"It's one thing for Zhenyuanzi to get involved, but what's the Ancestor Minghe doing here?"

Ye Xuan frowned. He didn't even need to calculate that Ye Xuan Zhenyuanzi Daoist was here to ask for help for Daoist Hongyun. The two were arguably the best pair of best buddies in the Primordial World.

Because Daoist Hongyun's physical body was destroyed, he traded his symbiotic Innate Spiritual Roots, the Ginseng Fruit Tree, one of the Ten Great Innate Spiritual Roots, with Ye Xuan to help him rebuild a physical body.

As for the Ancestor Minghe, Ye Xuan couldn't think of anything. The Ancestor Minghe was aloof and indifferent; Ye Xuan didn't believe he would come on behalf of his disciples.

Furthermore, the opponent also possesses the Immortal Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation.

This grand formation contains the Way of Slaughter, which is somewhat beneficial to his cultivation of the Way of Slaughter.

However, since it is the treasure of the Tongtian Sect Master, he will take it back once the other party emerges from seclusion.

If you don't understand it sooner, it will be too late to regret.

However, despite his confusion, Ye Xuan still spoke up.

Choose the second option and ignore it.

After Ye Xuan made his choice, another Electronic Sound entered his ears.

[Ding-dong!]

[The host has chosen to ignore this. One-tenth of the Transaction Demon God's Origin Power is being distributed. Please check it yourself.]

In the void, another burst of divine light flashed. Looking at the Origin Power that he had gained in his hand, Ye Xuan frowned.

Transaction Demon God the Origin Power could not be used on the people traveling Journey to the West, it could only be used as one of the trials. As for which trial it was, Ye Xuan had not yet decided. After thinking for a while, he threw it into the Inner World and let it choose for itself.

The next moment, Ye Xuan also entered Secluded Cultivation.

Inside the Grand Hall, upon seeing the arrival of the Ancestor Minghe and others, everyone stopped their discussion.

"Good!"

"Greetings, fellow Daoists."

Zhunti looked at everyone and smiled, holding up a flower.

"Greetings, Zhunti."

"To be honest, I wish to help Fellow Daoist Hongyun earn some merit."

Looking at Daoist Zhunti, Zhenyuanzi also bowed.

"Consider this a Karma I owe!"

Upon hearing this, Daoist Zhunti.

"Can!"

Beside him, after Zhenyuanzi spoke, Ancestor Minghe also spoke up, saying, "My disciple, the Great Freedom Bo Xun, has a Rakshasa Woman who is on her journey to the Journey to the West. I would also like to help her try to secure her daughter's daughter's favor."

Daoist Xuanming didn't care about that.

Daoist Houtu and Daoist Nuwa are both comprehending the Method of Nascent Soul Becoming a Saint.

Of Sage, except for Daoist Kunpeng, they were all present. Seeing that Ye Xuan still hadn't spoken, Daoist Zhunti thought for a moment and then agreed to everything.

If my Eldest Brother doesn't open it, it proves it's not important; otherwise, he would definitely have reminded me.

Moreover, the journey to the Journey to the West was inherently fraught with eighty-one tribulations.

If Laozi hadn't come, out of respect for both being Sage, Daoist Zhunti might have even agreed directly.

However, back then, Laozi wanted to Shakyamuni to Transforming Barbarians into Buddhas and scheme against the Buddhist Sect sect. Daoist Zhunti had always wanted to settle this score with him. When the other party came to his door, he directly asked for a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, intending to use it to reward his own disciple.
