The Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper Method?

The Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper Method?

Sun Wukong froze, then secretly rejoiced.

In the Primordial Wilderness, there were two great arts: the Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper and the Seventy-Two Earthly Fiends.

The Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper comprised the arts of Creation Manipulation, Yin-Yang Reversal, Star Shifting, Heaven Reversal Sun Return, Summon Wind and Rain, Golden Light of Earthly Travel, Tides Turning Seas Stirring, Manifesting Heaven and Earth, Stone to Gold, Abyssal Dive Earth Shrink, Beans to Soldiers, Seven Arrows Nail Head...

In short, every art among the Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper was extraordinary.

Looks like Bodhi is really going all out!

He's brought out every last treasure he had hidden away!

There's no reason for Old Sun not to learn them. He won't lose anything by learning!

Sun Wukong put on a smile and clasped his hands.

"Old Bodhi, I was wrong to blame you!"

"But you offered to teach Old Sun the Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper Method. I never asked you!"

"There's no karmic connection between us! And Old Sun doesn't owe you a thing!"

Hearing this, Patriarch Bodhi gritted his teeth and said,

"Of course. Of course."

Then Old Ancestor Bodhi sent another streak of golden light into Sun Wukong's mind!

The Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper Method was now fully imparted.

Bodhi let out a long breath, finally relieved of a great burden.

With that, he had taught Sun Wukong everything he needed to. All that remained was to wait for the Great Tribulation of Journey to the West to begin.

Besides, Sun Wukong was only a Grand Unity Golden Immortal. Even if he mastered the Eight-Nine Arcane Art and the Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper Method, he couldn't cause much trouble!

"Wukong, today you have attained the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit and mastered divine arts. When you leave here, you are certain to bring disaster upon yourself. From this day onward, our karmic ties are severed. You must never mention my name again. If you dare utter even a single word, I will know. Then I'll flay you, crush your bones, cast your soul into the Nine Hells, and condemn you to eternal ruin."

As Patriarch Bodhi spoke each word, his Quasi-Saint pressure surged toward Sun Wukong like a boundless ocean and a mighty river!

Sun Wukong sneered inwardly. This little bit of pressure isn't even one trillionth of my master's. He's showing off in front of me? He's clearly run out of tricks.

"Old Sun heard you, Old Sun heard you! Trying to scare a monkey? How annoying!"

With that, Sun Wukong waved his hand, used Golden Light of Earthly Travel, and soared away.

Only after Sun Wukong's figure had faded from sight did Old Ancestor Bodhi reveal a sly, triumphant smile.

"I don't know who taught the monkey his arts first, but at least everything is back on track. I should go inform Daoist Zhunti!"

Then Patriarch Bodhi transformed into a streak of golden light, shot into the sky, and vanished in an instant.

At the same time, Patriarch Bodhi's majestic voice echoed throughout Spiritual Terrace Square Inch Mountain:

"I have preached here for a hundred years, and today my merits are complete. I shall depart!"

"From this day on, there will be no more Spiritual Terrace Square Inch Mountain or Slanting Moon Three Stars Cave in this world."

"All of you, disperse!"

As his voice faded, the mountain's spiritual energy turned into clouds and mist. The spiritual birds and beasts scattered, and the exotic flowers and fruits withered away.

A moment ago, it had been a blessed immortal mountain. Now, it was an unnamed barren peak!

As the saying went: A mountain need not be high; with an immortal, it becomes famous!

The disciples were overcome with grief and wept bitterly, refusing to leave.

Deep within the chaos, at Mount Sumeru.

"Senior Brother, you've lost another 108,000 merit points to me. Including what you owed before, you're now 9,560,000 points in debt!"

Zhunti counted it all out on his fingers, then shouted excitedly at Jieyin.

Jieyin hung his head in dejection, kicked over the dice, and said,

"You have the nerve to say that? Last time, you lost 108 beauties to me, and I didn't even take them. We're brothers. Why keep such careful accounts?"

Zhunti gritted his teeth and protested, "Senior Brother, even brothers should keep their accounts clear. The time before last, you lost your chrysanthemum to me, and you still didn't make good on it!"

At that, Jieyin blushed. He shook the dice in his hand and said,

"Then let's call it even. Come on, let's keep playing. I refuse to believe..."

Just then, Zhunti suddenly brightened and said,

"Senior Brother, good news! Daoist Bodhi sent word that the monkey has reached the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm and is on his way back to Flower-Fruit Mountain!"

"Wonderful! The Great Tribulation of Journey to the West is about to begin!"

Jieyin shuddered with excitement and said,

"Once the Great Tribulation of Journey to the West is complete, Heaven's Dao will bestow a vast amount of merit, and we'll be able to pay the interest!"

"And the mountain of merit left over will be enough for us to play cards for several million years!"

Zhunti furrowed his brow at that and asked,

"Senior Brother, does that mean we don't have to repay the principal?"

Jieyin sighed and looked at Zhunti as if he couldn't believe how foolish he was.

"Junior Brother, that's not how it works. If you borrow merit through your own ability, why repay the principal?"

Zhunti said anxiously, "But, Senior Brother, if we don't repay the principal, Heaven's Dao will blacklist us. Then we'll be outcasts, lose Heaven's Dao's protection, and see our power greatly diminished!"

Jieyin rolled his eyes at Zhunti and said,

"Junior Brother, are you a fool? If we complete this Great Tribulation of Journey to the West, you and I will deserve the greatest credit. Once the Dao Ancestor fully devours Heaven's Dao, the Dao Ancestor will be Heaven's Dao, and Heaven's Dao will be the Dao Ancestor!"

"Tell me, if the old Heaven's Dao is done for, will we still have to repay the merit we owe?"

Hearing this, Zhunti finally understood. He gave Jieyin a thumbs-up and said, "Senior Brother, brilliant!"

Jieyin shook his head with a sigh. "What a pity. If I'd known this would happen, I should have found a way to squeeze more merit out of Heaven's Dao back then!"

Zhunti sighed too. "Exactly! Squeeze it hard—squeeze it dry! Too bad we don't have the chance anymore!"

Lingxuan Dao Palace.

"That was such a comfortable nap!"

Zhou Xuan opened his eyes and stretched!

In an instant, the heavens and earth changed.

The sun rose in the east, and hundreds of flowers bloomed!

Spiritual birds took flight, and immortal beasts sang in unison!

Another beautiful day!

Just then, the system's voice rang out.

[ Ding, Sun Wukong has obtained the body-tempering cultivation art Eight-Nine Arcane Art. ]

[ Ten Billion Times Share: Host has obtained the body-tempering cultivation art Twelve Revolutions Profound Art. ]

...

[ Ding, Sun Wukong has obtained the Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper Method. ]

[ Ten Billion Times Share: Host has obtained the divine arts of the Chaos Thirty-Six Laws. ]

...

"As expected of my disciple!"

"He's barely left, and he's already brought me so many good things!"

"If this keeps up, I'll soon be invincible just by staying in my dojo!"

Zhou Xuan mused happily as he examined what he'd gained.

The Twelve Revolutions Profound Art was the ultimate method for attaining godhood through the physical body. Once perfected, its practitioner could use their body to attain the Dao of the Hunyuan Taiji Celestial Venerable, endure through the ages, cross the chaos, and transcend the annihilation of time.

This art had evolved from Great God Pangu's Nine Revolutions Profound Art. That didn't mean it was more powerful than Great God Pangu's version; it simply meant the system had filled in its shortcomings, making it more suitable for ordinary people to cultivate.

At the same time, Zhou Xuan had comprehended thirty-six laws and their divine arts, including the Law of Time, the Law of Reincarnation, the Law of Years, and the Law of Strength!

"If I comprehend all Three Thousand Laws, won't I be able to recreate chaos, evolve the myriad heavens, and become a Great Dao in my own right?"

Zhou Xuan narrowed his eyes and pondered.

Regardless, with the thirty-six laws he had now comprehended, along with the Law of Space and the Law of Transformation he had mastered before, he was undoubtedly the strongest in the Primordial Wilderness!

Even Hongjun might not have comprehended as many laws as he had.

Zhou Xuan raised his head and lightly tapped the air with a finger!

With a whoosh!

A streak of golden light shot into the sky and vanished into the void!

"This golden light can help me find a new disciple!"

"I wonder who in this vast Primordial Wilderness is destined to become my disciple!"

Zhou Xuan murmured to himself.
