The Crisis of Calamity, the Monkey in the Present Age

Sun Wukong stopped at a secluded cave, then transformed into Sun Wukong form and entered the cave. Sun Wukong saw a stone chamber filled with many treasures.

This cave, seemingly left behind by nature, is isolated from the mainland by a spring, making it a veritable Immortal Realm.

It's just a mystery whose Great Dao Realm of immortals this is, that this Monkey Sun has managed to intrude upon it.

"Great Sage Sun." A young boy beside him, with a rounded brow, seemed to have enjoyed the best of this blessed place. "The Dao Ancestor has been waiting for you for a long time. This way, please."

Sun Wukong scratched his head and followed the Holy Child into the cave abode, which was a completely different world inside.

But now that the Human Race is about to undergo a tribulation, he urgently needs help; otherwise, Tang Xuanzang Sha Wujing will only perish in that ghost city.

Ao Changsheng was still in seclusion at this time, so it was his Daoist incarnation who received Sun Wukong.

Upon seeing this person, Sun Wukong felt a sense of awe. The Dao Ancestor, who had existed since the Primordial World, was naturally extraordinary, probably even more powerful than the Old Ancestor Bodhi.

He quickly bowed and said, "Old Sun, don't know how I intruded into your place, Ancestor. I hope you won't be angry."

"Great Sage Sun is too kind. I am merely a Daoist incarnation here; I have no ancestor whatsoever," Ao Changsheng's Daoist incarnation replied with a smile.

"I dare not," Sun Wukong bowed again.

"Why are you so reserved, Great Sage Sun? Although we know each other, we are destined to meet. I see that you have exceptional talent, so I will bestow upon you a great blessing, hoping that you will have the fortuitous opportunity to achieve it in the future."

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong's eyes immediately lit up. This was a great thing, but he didn't even have a cultivation method yet, so where would he get such fortuitous opportunity? He thought to himself but dared not reveal it.

"I wonder what merits my ancestor has bestowed upon Old Sun?"

"This merit is what I condensed during my visualization. Take it, and I only ask that you cultivate it to its peak. Regardless of whether you can cultivate it to the highest realm, I only hope that you will achieve the Great Dao in the future."

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong's eyes shone even brighter.

Although he couldn't currently cultivate to its highest level, this opportunity was incredibly rare. Overjoyed, he quickly agreed, "Thank you, Ancestor! I, your Old Sun, will certainly not fail you."

"Well, you may leave now."

Sun Wukong took three steps back, turned and left, his face beaming with excitement. He thought to himself that this merit was truly a great thing, and that if he achieved the Great Dao in the future, he would definitely be able to repay this kindness.

This time, however, he not only received a great fortuitous opportunity, but also a great favor and a great fortune, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

There's no such thing as a free lunch in this world, and fortuitous opportunity shouldn't be given away casually.

This opportunity I have been given is a fortuitous opportunity.

He was thinking this to himself, but he didn't realize that this was a major crisis.

After he left, only Ao Changsheng's Daoist incarnation remained in the cave.

The Old Ancestor Bodhi slowly appeared in the distance. "It seems your scheme has begun, fellow Daoist."

Looking at the empty cave, the Old Ancestor Bodhi smiled and murmured, "Sun Wukong, we are destined to meet, so I will lend you a hand."

After saying that, he disappeared from the spot, and the next moment, his palm stretched out into the distance.

Sun Wukong retreated from the cave and headed towards West Ox Hezhou.

Sun Wukong sped along, his speed so great that Sun Wukong couldn't help but marvel at how wondrous the Heavenly Court truly was; Heavenly Court speed was beyond his wildest imagination.

Behind Sun Wukong, a golden giant ape followed closely behind; that giant ape was none other than Sun Wukong himself.

This golden giant ape is a golden ape clone of Sun Wukong. His cultivation has reached the Late-Stage Sage, and he has cultivated a Ninefold Golden Body. With the Ninefold Golden Body combined, his strength is naturally extremely powerful.

At this moment, Sun Wukong transformed into a giant ape clone, and his speed was nothing short of freakish.

Sun Wukong continuously Law Power wield the Jingu Bang throughout the journey.

In the middle of a great mountain, Sun Wukong stopped and looked at a river in front of him. In the river was a golden carp, about a hundred feet long. Its body was yellow and covered with colorful scales, making it look very beautiful. The carp also had many small spines on its body, which made it look terrifying, but the carp was very quiet and did not attack humans.

This is the legendary Dragon Carp, one of the Carp King and also one of the legendary Demon Emperor. The flesh of the Dragon Carp is an extremely precious substance.

When Carp King saw humans trespassing into its territory, it immediately became alert.

Carp King opened its mouth and spat out saliva containing powerful energy that corroded anything it touched.

Sun Wukong watched Carp King's actions with a disdainful smile, then swung his Jingu Bang, and instantly, countless Jingu Bang rained down on Carp King.

Upon seeing this, the Carp King was so frightened that it immediately swam away to avoid it.

"Bang bang bang..."

The Jingu Bang struck Carp King, splattering blood everywhere.

As expected of one of the Demon Emperor, this Carp King, despite being injured, was still able to swim at an extremely fast speed, instantly escaping to a distance of over a thousand meters, where it continuously dodged Sun Wukong's attacks.

Sun Wukong's attack missed, but he didn't pay much attention and continued the chase.

While Sun Wukong's Jingu Bang is powerful, it's not as exaggerated as some claim.

He was very fast, but Carp King dodged his attacks several times. However, he was much slower than Carp King, which caused Sun Wukong to fail time and time again, but he persevered.

His target was the Dragon Carp, and the Dragon Carp's target was Sun Wukong.

The two exchanged blows, constantly maneuvering and fighting.

During their battle, both of their cultivation levels continued to rise.

Sun Wukong's cultivation level has broken through to the Early-Stage Half-Sage, but this stage is not considered high, after all, he has only recently broken through.

The Dragon Carp's cultivation had also broken through to the Middle-Stage Sage, but its speed was still not much worse than Sun Wukong's, and even surpassed Sun Wukong's in speed. This was the reason why Sun Wukong failed time and time again.

Both of them were accomplished cultivators, but that didn't mean they had an absolute advantage. In terms of speed, the Dragon Carp was superior to Sun Wukong.

However, their struggle did not end there.

The two continued their chase.

"Bang!" Sun Wukong's Jingu Bang struck the Carp King once again.

This blow sent the Carp King flying straight to the bottom of the river.

The power of Sun Wukong's Jingu Bang is incomparable to that of ordinary Immortal Artifact.
