Yan Zhaoge could only feel a gaze silently staring at him out of nowhere.
He looked towards Feng Yunsheng. The two knew each other well enough, and no words were required to be said. Feng Yunsheng said, âPreviously, I wasnât able to hear it. However, I can see it now.â
âWeâve already entered the internal part of the first layer of seal. This seal wouldnât hinder us from meeting the other party,â said Yan Zhaoge.
The reason why the roaring sound disappeared wasnât because the source stopped roaring.
The source wasnât an existence that was being suppressed here. Instead, it came from an unresigned intent filled with rage which materialized itself within the space.
If the owner ignored it, it would remain in this space eternally.
When the person suppressed here noticed Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng, he shifted his attention towards them, causing the voice to disappear naturally.
The ruthless and tyrannical gaze was sufficient in causing a chill down other peopleâs spine.
Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng both reaffirmed themselves mentally and continued walking towards the insides of the mountain.
As they were walking, they felt something and raised their heads together.
A pair of bronze mirror-like eyes were staring at them!
The gaze was no longer invisible. Instead, it seemed like a mirror light that illuminated through anything within the boundless darkness. Nothing would be able to escape its illumination.
Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunshengâs body felt numb while being stared at by this gaze.
The feeling seemed to exist between reality and illusion, and it was continually transforming. It would ignore the twoâs Immortal physique and directly affected their souls, causing their minds to go blank. Otherwise, it would ignore their soul and affect their physique, rendering them unable to move at all after being paralyzed.
The phenomenon of chaos loomed within Yan Zhaogeâs eyes, while the devilish blue-black flames within Feng Yunshengâs eyes transformed into empty darkness.
After the feelings transitioned for a few rounds, the two finally managed to stabilize their soul and physique once more.
The mirror-like gaze didnât go overboard either, and the gaze was suddenly retracted.
Then, a silhouette descended from the sky and appeared in front of the two!
After Yan Zhaoge made out his appearance, he couldnât stop his mouth from twitching.
Although his figure wasnât that huge, he seemed domineering enough simply by crouching there. He appeared to be capable of carrying the entire heavens; his feet seemed to be stepping on the Netherworldâs Yellow Springs, while his head seemed to be supporting the whole Nine Heavens.
He had an apish and hairy face. He wore a phoenix feather purple golden crown, and he was clad in golden armor. He wore a pair of lotus silk root cloud-stepping shoes and held a rod by his hand. Currently, he was staring at both Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng.
Seeing the ruthless golden fur primate that seemed to be unbounded by any rules, Yan Zhaoge couldnât calm himself down despite already guessing the other personâs identity.
The one that appeared in front of them was the legendary Monkey King, the Great Sage Equalling Heavens â Sun Wukong!
However, if Sun Wukong is here, what about that Victorious Fighting Buddha outside?
Did the Buddha mistake him for someone else?
Or was this monkey fake instead?
Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng both stared at each other. They could make out the uncertainty within each otherâs gaze.
âA Jade Clear disciple and A Devilâs successor?â The ruthless monkey started speaking first.
He looked at both Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng with a confused gaze.
âHow queer, how queer!â The monkey looked at Feng Yunsheng, âAt first glance, youâre a Devilâs successor. However, why can I feel that your foundations originated from the Jade Clear and Grand Clear?â
He looked at Yan Zhaoge again, âYouâre even weirder... Wait, you cultivate all Three Clears?â
The monkey laughed suddenly, âInteresting, truly interesting!â
Before the laughter stopped, the monkey suddenly gasped, âYouâre such a strange person!â
In a short period of time, his expression had continuously transformed many times. In the end, his expression turned back into his confused expression as he stared at Yan Zhaoge and remained silent.
âWhat did he make out?â Numerous thoughts flashed across Yan Zhaogeâs mind. Without any change in expression, he cupped his hands towards the monkey, âJade Clear disciple â Yan Zhaoge. This is my wife, and also my junior apprentice-sister of the same sect. Due to specific reasons, she now possesses the power of the Nine Underworldâs Great Devils. However, she isnât a Devilâs successor.â
âHow should we call you?â
Hearing Yan Zhaogeâs question, the monkey raised his head and laughed, âI wonder how long have I remained in this mountain? Even a junior doesnât recognize the Old Sun anymore?â
Hearing how the monkey referred to himself as Yan Zhaoge blurted out, âEastern Continent of Superior Deityâs Aolai Kingdomâs Mountain of Flower and Fruitâs Water Curtain Caveâs owner â Great Sage Equalling Heavens â Monkey King Sun Wukong!â
âOh? So you still recognize me,â said the monkey with a smile. âWhy did you pretend not to know me then?â
After Yan Zhaoge remained silent for a while, and said, âBecause, not long ago, I saw another Great Sage Equalling Heavens.â
The monkeyâs eyes widened upon hearing Yan Zhaogeâs words.
Boundless murderous and ruthless intent leaked out from him, causing even the mountains to shudder.
âHeâs outside of the mountain?â The monkey couldnât control his rage anymore. His body instantly expanded fanatically, causing the entire Two Boundaries Mountain to experience an earthquake!â
Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng quickly stabilized themselves and stepped backward.
The monkey had already gone crazy, and veins were appearing on his eyes. His figure transformed into a larger size than the sun itself, as if he was about to burst through the skies.
However, a seemingly non-existent seal suddenly appeared and enveloped the entire Two Boundaries Mountain.
A brilliant fog even more majestic than the cosmosâ galaxy sealed the Two Boundaries Mountain off and started suppressing the lunatic towering monkey.
The monkeyâs figure started to shrink speedily. He was forced backward by the fog and knocked against the mountainâs rocks.
When Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng looked closely, they saw an unremarkable spiritual stone embedded into the mountainâs rocks.
Half of the spiritual stone was exposed outside, while the other half was buried within the mountainâs rocks.
The monkeyâs figure was forced into the small stone. As he attempted to escape once more, he was sealed back inside.
After repeatedly attempting to escape many times, the monkey still refused to give up. He rampaged around and let out an angry roar.
Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng could hear his roars. They subconsciously covered their ears, and yet they felt as if their eardrums would shatter soon.
âSuch strength! Heâs been sealed for such a long time and shouldnât have been able to exert his strength at all. And yet, heâs still capable of causing such a huge commotion.â Yan Zhaoge now understood. The monkey that appeared in front of them was merely a projection of himself.
The spiritual stone by the mountainâs rocks was his original form after being sealed.
âI mightâve said some vague stuff previously. Please donât blame me, Great Sage,â said Yan Zhaoge. âThe one outside isnât called the Great Sage Equalling Heavens anymore. Most people would refer to him as the Namo Victorious Fighting Buddha.â
âWhat nonsense is that Namo Victorious Fighting Buddha!â scolded Sun Wukong.
Yan Zhaoge could hear that something was wrong. He purposely said, âIndeed, indeed. You were the one that protected the Buddhist monk â Sanzang and helped him acquire the Buddhist Scriptures, causing the teachings of Buddhism to descend upon the East once again. Such course of action drove the flourishing of the central Blessed Lands of Saha and Buddhism in the East. Then, you attained Buddhism Enlightenment, and transformed into a Buddha...â
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the monkey, âNonsense! Since when did I turn into a Buddha?â
Yan Zhaoge wasnât displeased by the monkey disrupting his words. Instead, he immediately asked, âIf thatâs the case, you werenât suppressed here once again after acquiring the Buddhist Scriptures, turning into a Buddha, and attaining Buddhism Enlightenment?â
