At this moment, on a lone island not far from Ao Lai, there was a misty immortal aura.
One could clearly see the words "Cave of the Slanting Moon and Three Stars" written in a mountain range on the island.
If Ao Qing were here, he would definitely call out the name of this place in shock.
This was because this was none other than Mount Fangcun, the place where Patriarch Subhuti cultivated.
No one noticed that in the middle of the Cave of the Slanting Moon and Three Stars, there was a huge dojo and a temple that looked like a Taoist temple.
Countless cultivators were quietly cultivating here, giving off a youthful vibe.
At the top of the Daoist temple, on a praying mat, sat a strange Daoist in a Daoist robe with Buddhist beads in his hand. He looked like an immortal.
This Daoist was none other than Patriarch Bodhi, the one who taught the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal, Sun Wukong's seventy-two transformations.
One shouldn't underestimate Patriarch Bodhi. In the Three Realms, Patriarch Bodhi's strength wasn't inferior to a Saint's. If that wasn't the case, the Jade Emperor wouldn't have been so amiable when facing the shrewish Sun Wukong.
Of course, not many people knew that Patriarch Bodhi's true identity was none other than the Duobao Taoist who had just joined the Western Sect. He could also be called the Great Sun Sage.
Yes, that's right, the Great Sun Sage.
In fact, if the Dragons had not interfered, the Western Sect would have accumulated enough luck to become a Buddhist sect. The Duobao Taoist would then become the Gautama Buddha and take charge of the entire Buddhist sect.
The Duobao Taoist's purpose here was very simple. He was waiting for the fated person. The stone monkey, Sun Wukong, had never been his master!
At the beginning of the Journey to the West calamity, the Western Sect had already started planning everything. The stone monkey, Sun Wukong, was the first step in their plan. He was also one of the five chess pieces.
"According to the rules, the stone monkey, Sun Wukong, should be shooting out two beams of divine light from his eyes. Why hasn't there been any reaction yet?"
Just as the group of cultivators were cultivating diligently, the Great Sun Supremacy who was sitting on the praying mat suddenly frowned and started to calculate.
However, after calculating for a long time, he could not find any trace of the stone monkey, Sun Wukong.
One had to know that he was going to become the master of the stone monkey, Sun Wukong, who had learned magic from him. That was why he had wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace and caused trouble for the Heavenly Court.
Now that there was no trace of Sun Wukong, it was not a good sign.
Thinking of this, the Great Sun Sage did not speak, he closed his eyes tightly and used his aura to detect the surroundings.
However, as soon as he closed his eyes, he felt an unprecedentedly powerful Dragon's Might, which violently shook his probing away.
"This, this aura … it's actually Dao Ancestor Ao Qing?!"
Sensing Ao Qing's aura, the Great Sun Sage frowned and his heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Dao Ancestor Ao Qing had seen through the Western Sect's scheme?!
But … where did this Ao Qing come from? He could even predict their secret plan?!
Just as the Great Sun Sage was about to continue investigating, a powerful voice suddenly rang out without warning. "Patriarch Bodhi, you are not worthy to be the master of the stone monkey, Sun Wukong.
The stone monkey, Sun Wukong, is my disciple from now on! "
This voice belonged to none other than Ao Qing. His words were sonorous, powerful, and domineering. Instantly, the Great Sun Sage was about to explode from anger.
However, the Great Sun Venerable still forcefully suppressed his anger. He didn't say anything else as his figure flashed and disappeared without a trace, as if he had never existed …
Now, what the Great Sun Sage was most curious about was how Dao Ancestor Ao Qing knew about this. He actually …
…
Just as the Great Sun Sage left, Ao Qing smiled coldly and looked at the stone monkey who was scratching his head. "Do you know why I, the Dao Ancestor, am looking for you today?!"
The reason why the Great Sun Sage could not sense Sun Wukong's aura was that Ao Qing had used the Mountain River State Heaven and Earth Mystic Yellow Providence Seizing Diagram to seize the golden light from the stone monkey's eyes, thus cutting off his connection with the outside world.
As a mythical transmigrator, how could Ao Qing not know that when the stone monkey, Sun Wukong, was born, his eyes would shoot out golden light and shoot into the Dou Mansion, shaking the entire mythical world?!
And thus completely opening the prelude to the great calamity of Journey to the West?!
If he remembered correctly, when the stone monkey, Sun Wukong, was born, his eyes shot out golden light and shot into the Dou Mansion. Thus, it alarmed the Western Tathagata, who hurriedly ran to Fangcun Mountain and took Sun Wukong in as his disciple.
Otherwise, when Sun Wukong was the real and fake Monkey King, he would not have specially asked Tathagata that question. It was to confirm whether this Tathagata was his master.
And now, after Ao Qing used the Seizing Diagram and successfully cut off the connection between Sun Wukong and Tathagata, he could better control the stone monkey, Sun Wukong.
"Who, who are you?!"
Although Ao Qing looked very friendly, he still gave the stone monkey, Sun Wukong, a fright and fear flashing in his eyes.
"I am Dao Ancestor Ao Qing. I am here today to take you as my disciple.
From now on, you are called Sun Wukong! "
Ao Qing shrugged and waved his hand. A golden light was injected into the stone monkey, Sun Wukong. A moment later, a strong memory surged into the stone monkey's mind.
"My, my name is Sun Wukong?"
"My, my name is Sun Wukong?!
Hehehe, good name, good name!
I like it so much! "
The stone monkey, Sun Wukong, who was originally very tired of the mythological world, seemed to have sensed everything in the world in an instant. His mind became incomparably clear and he understood everything clearly.
A moment later, Sun Wukong hurriedly said, "It is this little monkey's fortune to be able to become the disciple of Dao Ancestor Ao Qing. However, Dao Ancestor Ao Qing, can you let this little monkey make a trip to the Flowerfruit Mountain first?!"
The Imperial Exterminator, Bai Qi, was shocked when he saw that the monkey could actually speak. He even wanted to reach out and touch Sun Wukong, but he was stopped by Sun Wukong.
Hearing this, the corners of Ao Qing's mouth curled up slightly. This Sun Wukong was indeed worthy of being called the Monkey King. He always remembered his monkey descendants.
And just as Sun Wukong's voice fell, dark clouds suddenly covered the Flowerfruit Mountain in the distance. A strong demonic aura enveloped the entire Flowerfruit Mountain. Clearly, someone wanted to take over the Flowerfruit Mountain!
However, in the next moment, the strong demonic aura dissipated …
Because Ao Qing gently exhaled …
