Great Demon Sun Wukong

"Fan Xin, I am here." At this moment, Sun Wukong lowered his head, the Great Sage Equalling Heaven daring not to look directly at a minor tree demon.

"Great Sage, look, I can transform into human form now. Soon, I will be able to leave this place."

"Fan, Fan Xin. I, that’s right, this is my master. He died trying to save me. But his divine sense and soul are still present. See if you can let me leave my master here with you, I am about to go search for the Fire Attribute Five-Colored Divine Stone. I’m afraid I can’t carry my master with me all the time."

Sun Wukong, who had been looking down, immediately lifted his head upon mentioning Tang Sanzang, his gaze intense and not evading in the slightest.

Fan Xin hurriedly ran behind Sun Wukong and helped him place Tang Sanzang in front of the small peach tree. Then, a stream of pink spiritual power flowed from Fan Xin’s fingertips, turning into countless peach blossom petals, covering Tang Sanzang’s body.

After a moment, Fan Xin turned to Sun Wukong and said, "Great Sage, your master’s body is indeed dead, but there is a mysterious aura continuously circulating inside him, which keeps the master’s body just like when he was alive. Where is the master’s divine sense and soul?"

Sun Wukong quickly pointed at the Void Transcendence Flower still spinning on Tang Sanzang’s forehead, saying, "Master’s divine sense and soul are in this flower. This flower is an evolved form of the Ancient Transcendence Bloom, possessing many divine skills, which even I cannot see through.

However, this flower has almost become one with my master—if this flower doesn’t wilt, my master’s soul will not perish."

"Alright, I understand. Leave your master with me. I now have the might of a lower-tier saint. Those Buddhas in Heaven won’t do anything to me, but Great Sage, you must be careful. Also, let bygones be bygones. After all, Heaven is now destroyed, Buddhism has scattered.

Those grievances are now avenged. Great Sage, don’t dwell on them anymore."

Listening silently to Fan Xin finish speaking, Sun Wukong let out a deep sigh of relief and then nodded. "Don’t worry, my aim now is just to restore the prosperity of the Demon Clan from the Ancient Times. As for the rest, I won’t bother with them anymore. Fan Xin, I entrust my master to you. Even if I have to search the entire Three Realms, I will find a way to restore my master."

"Mhm, Great Sage, be careful. Fan Xin will wait for you here."

Having said that, Fan Xin transformed into countless petals, then wrapped around Tang Sanzang’s body. After being enveloped by the petals, Tang Sanzang began to transform, and moments later, he became a large peach blossom. The heart of the flower was Tang Sanzang, now completely enveloped by the petals.

The giant peach blossom then undulated before gradually sinking into the ground. Soon, the surface was barren, everything having vanished without a trace.

After the peach blossom disappeared, Sun Wukong visibly paused, then let out a wry smile. Afterward, he walked over to the peach tree, gently embracing it.

"Fan Xin, I’m leaving, you wait for me."

Turning around, Sun Wukong prepared to leave. But suddenly, he halted, pondering for a moment as if there was something he was not quite sure about. With a wave of his hand, a bright red ribbon fluttered out, coiling into a circle around the peach sapling and then vanishing into the soil.

After doing all this, Sun Wukong felt slightly more at ease. Then, without any further hesitation, Wind Fire Wheels appeared beneath his feet, and he transformed into an undetectable streak of light that shot towards the horizon.

Having secured Tang Sanzang’s safety and taking another glance at Fan Xin, Sun Wukong no longer had any worries in his heart. What remained was to journey southward in search of the Fire Attribute Five-Colored Divine Stone.

However, just as Sun Wukong was about to fly out of Heaven, he sensed a familiar wave of mana. Instantly, he stopped and focused his senses. A trace of a smile emerged on his face.

"So it’s that blockhead, only I don’t know what that blockhead is doing in the Supreme Elder Lord’s Palace of Harmony. But whatever, as long as the blockhead isn’t foolish enough to provoke the Buddhist Soldiers, there isn’t much in the vast Heaven that can threaten him now. I didn’t expect the blockhead to be so efficient; it hasn’t been long, yet he has already rescued all of my Demon Clan.

Let him make a ruckus on his own. I better hurry and search for the next Five-Colored Divine Stone."

With that thought, Sun Wukong no longer lingered, unleashing his full speed in a burst, and in the blink of an eye, he had disappeared from the spot. The Five-Colored Divine Stones, he had now acquired three of them.

The first Earth Attribute Divine Stone had merged with his own body, "Sun Wukong," and about half of its Spiritual Charm had remained within his Sea of Consciousness. The second Metal Attribute Divine Stone had transformed into Nezha, so only half of its Spiritual Charm was left.

Yet, both these Divine Stones had their Spiritual Charm absorbed by the Jingu Bang, which was quite amusing yet frustrating for Sun Wukong. Fortunately, it wasn’t a waste; after all, the Jingu Bang had been with him for over a thousand years, and he would never bring himself to discard it.

Moreover, these two incomplete Five-Colored Divine Stones had upgraded the Jingu Bang to a Quasi-Supreme Divine Artifact. Truthfully, when all was said and done, Sun Wukong had still profited. Then came the Water Attribute Five-Colored Divine Stone which he had finally obtained after overcoming a series of trials.

This stone contained the complete Water Attribute Spiritual Charm, and it benefited Sun Wukong the most.

In fact, when Sun Wukong was gravely injured after killing the Eternal Buddha of Flowing Light, it was as if the Water Attribute Divine Stone sensed something on its own, broke through the layers of seals, and flew to Sun Wukong’s side. This was something the Elder of the Aquatic Tribe later specifically told him, fearing that Sun Wukong would misunderstand.

And this Water Attribute Five-Colored Divine Stone, Sun Wukong had only mastered a small portion of its might since Sun Wukong was never proficient in any spells, always relying on his immense physical strength and his steel-thewed bones. So, after merging with the Water Attribute Divine Stone, Sun Wukong had only come to understand the extreme cold of water and its supple defenses.

Even these insights were thanks to the battle with the Eight-Gods Flame, where the extreme cold gave rise to fire, and he gained understanding. Otherwise, it really couldn’t be said how much of the Water Attribute Five-Colored Divine Stone’s potential our Great Saint could unleash.

While continuing to comprehend the Water’s mysteries, he flew rapidly. About five Chinese hours later, a huge island appeared before Sun Wukong’s eyes. The forests on the entire island were incredibly dense, the lush greenery concealing any sight of the land below.

Closing his eyes, he felt the Spiritual Power fluctuations around him, then compared them several times with the map in his mind from the Ice Attribute Divine Stone. Sun Wukong finally confirmed that what lay before him was the gathering place of an Ancient Demon Clan—the Illusory Demon Island.

The Demon Dream Clan, an unusual race from the Demon Clan in ancient times, resembled humans in appearance. The only difference was a pair of wing-shaped tattoos on the back of the Demon Dream Clan members. Apart from that, there were no other differences. Members of the Demon Dream Clan were extremely adept at illusion techniques and spatial transference.

Legend has it that the Great Formation of All Heavens’ Stars was devised by a powerful member of the Demon Dream Clan, who dedicated his life to studying the movements of the stars and finally managed to set up an embryonic form of the formation in his lifetime. However, exhausted, he eventually passed away without seeing it completed.

It was only after contributions from countless skilled individuals from the Demon Clan that it was enriched and perfected, resulting in the Demon Clan’s number one Killing Formation, the Great Formation of All Heavens’ Stars. Unfortunately, now only a remnant of the formation remained, less than a tenth or a twentieth of its full strength.

"At last, I have arrived. Thank goodness for that map; otherwise, even after three or four years of searching, I might never have found it."

The Land of Seals for the Fire Attribute Five-Colored Divine Stone, the Illusory Demon Island, reached!
