The Ancestral Master had no other choice but to look for the Stone Monkey.
"Wukong."
The Ancestral Master said, "You've been here for 15 years. It's time to go back."
When the Stone Monkey heard that, he understood that the Ancestral Master had made up his mind.
"Master, I don't dare to disobey."
The Stone Monkey returned the greeting and said, "It's just that Mount Huaguo is two seas away from here and a South Continent. It's a long journey. Master, please teach me the art of traveling the clouds."
"You macaque, you've been scheming against me."
The Ancestral Master smiled and said, "Alright, since it's my request, I'll agree."
He could not find a reason to chase the Stone Monkey away, so he could only use the Somersault Cloud.
The Stone Monkey's Great Dao had been completed. If one thing was understood, a hundred things would be understood. He used the Spiritual Refinement Technique and learned the Somersault Cloud overnight.
This way, the Dharma spells that he should have cultivated in the Three Star Cave were not lost, but there was one more.
The next day, the sky was turning white. The Stone Monkey returned to the dormitory and bid farewell to his senior brothers.
"Senior Brothers, I'm going to do great things. Is there anyone who wants to join me?"
The Stone Monkey suddenly asked.
The senior brothers scolded him with a smile, "Junior Brother, you can't even protect yourself. How can we accompany you?"
The Stone Monkey was not angry. He asked again, but no one agreed.
What kind of person was the Ancestral Master? However, upon closer inspection, he taught according to his aptitude. If he did not meet the best, he would only teach ordinary cultivators.
These cultivators could not see through the Stone Monkey. He was a Stone Monkey with mediocre strength. His disciples were all cultivators. No matter how good their relationship was, no one was willing to be a demon with him.
The Stone Monkey's ambition was higher than the sky. He wanted to recruit his senior brothers, but he did not succeed. However, he did not force them. He just felt regretful.
Suddenly, a voice came from outside the door.
"I want to be with you."
The Stone Monkey followed the voice and turned around. It turned out that the stone lion outside the door had spoken.
The stone lion listened to the Dao all year round and had already developed intelligence. It would greet the disciples when they came in and out, so no one was surprised to see it speak.
Although they were not surprised, the disciples laughed.
"This stone lion is talking nonsense again!"
"It has no arms or legs. How can it leave?"
The Stone Monkey ignored the laughter and quickly walked to the side of the stone lion.
"I want to be with you."
The stone lion said again, "It's just that my legs are weak. I really can't help it."
The stone lion had gained sentience, but it had yet to transform, so it was naturally unable to walk.
The Stone Monkey was extremely curious. "Why do you want to be with me?"
"You are the only one who answers my daily greetings."
The stone lion replied with sincerity. It turned out that the Stone Monkey was the only one who never missed a response from it when it greeted him every day.
The Stone Monkey smiled and made a decision in his heart.
"Wukong."
At this moment, another voice sounded.
The Stone Monkey turned around and discovered that the Ancestral Master had arrived.
"I told you to leave. Why aren't you leaving?"
The Patriarch asked.
All the disciples were shocked. So it turned out that the Patriarch wanted to chase the Stone Monkey away.
"Master."
The Stone Monkey's heart skipped a beat. "I have one more request."
"What is it?"
The Patriarch stroked his beard and thought that he couldn't promise the monkey this time.
The Stone Monkey bowed to the Patriarch. "Master, I'm going to do great things. I hope that Master can lend me a hand."
He repeated what Senior Martial Brother Xiang had said to him.
The Patriarch didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He then shook his head. "Do you know that I swore to the heavens that I can't leave this place?"
The Stone Monkey nodded. The Patriarch had told him before that his magic power was profound. In order to not get involved in trouble, he took the initiative to live in seclusion deep in the mountains.
"But Master."
The Stone Monkey thought for a while and asked again, "If I change the heavens and your oath is gone, can you come out of seclusion?"
The moment these words came out, it was like when he first sought the Dao. It was earth-shattering. All the disciples were astonished.
Was this monkey crazy?
Did he know what he was saying?
The Patriarch laughed loudly.
After laughing for a long time, he nodded and said, "If you change the heavens, I'll promise you."
"Thank you, Master!"
The Stone Monkey got the answer he wanted and thanked the Patriarch again.
Then, the Stone Monkey turned around and bowed to the other Senior Martial Brothers.
"Stone Lion, let's go."
The Stone Monkey said to the Stone Lion.
The Stone Lion was confused. "How do we go?"
"That's easy."
The Stone Monkey plucked out the hair and casually blew it. It turned into a metal chain that bound the Stone Lion.
Before the disciples could react, the Stone Monkey formed a hand seal and threw it. He suddenly leaped up and turned into a golden rainbow that soared into the sky.
"Ah!"
The Stone Lion's cry of surprise had just sounded, but in the blink of an eye, it could no longer be heard.
The disciples all raised their heads to look at the golden rainbow. It pierced through the clouds at an astonishing speed.
"How can this be!"
"My eyes must be playing tricks on me!"
They couldn't believe their eyes.
"Is that really Junior Martial Brother?"
"How can he have such a cultivation level?"
The golden rainbow that soared through the sky had a majestic aura. It was simply unprecedented. No other disciple's spiritual art could achieve this.
Compared to the stone monkey's golden rainbow, their Cloudsoar and Mist Treading Technique was more than a hundred thousand miles inferior.
"What a Somersault Cloud!"
The Patriarch looked at the golden rainbow and couldn't help but sigh.
Once the monkey left, he was afraid that the world would really be turned upside down.
"Master."
The disciples came to their senses and asked the Patriarch, "When did Junior Martial Brother attain Dao?"
The Patriarch shook his head and then recited:
"When I came, my bones were ordinary and my body was heavy. When I attained Dao, my body became light.
No one in the world was willing to be determined to cultivate Xuan Xuan. "
After reciting two lines, the Patriarch left the disciples and turned to leave alone.
Once the monkey left, he would lose a lot of fun.
The disciples stood in the courtyard and looked at each other. They couldn't help but feel ashamed. Then, they fell into deep thought.
The Stone Monkey carried the Stone Lion and used the Somersault Cloud. His speed was so fast that he reached the sea in an instant.
"Slow down, slow down!"
The Stone Lion was happy and scared at the same time. It screamed continuously, but the Stone Monkey looked into the distance.
Not long after the sun rose, the eastern sky was burning with a golden light. The sea was also dyed gold by this light.
The Stone Monkey increased his speed again. The Stone Lion fainted from fright, but he laughed heartily.
