12: Chapter 12 Sun Wukong and the Star-stealing Disaster 12: Chapter 12 Sun Wukong and the Star-stealing Disaster “I was wrong!”
After that experience, Sun Wukong was truly frightened, it was too terrifying.
But if his senior brother was so terrifying, not to mention others.
It seemed that upon hearing Sun Wukong admit his mistake, the numerous images of his senior brother merged into one at that moment.
“You must have learned Master’s Daoist Techniques by now, how is it going?”
Wang Yang helped Sun Wukong up, then calmly asked.
“The technique I just used was Master’s Daoist Technique, but obviously I haven’t learned its essence yet, I couldn’t even deceive you, senior brother!”
Sun Wukong lowered his head, feeling a bit dejected.
And because of the previous Wind Escape Transformation, Sun Wukong also just assumed that he hadn’t cultivated to the essence yet, otherwise, he could have been even more powerful.
Wang Yang looked at Sun Wukong with a smile on his face.
Although Sun Wukong was practicing the Thirty-Six Transformations of Celestial Gang, these were after all calculated by Saints, whether it’s the Thirty-Six Transformations of Celestial Gang or the Seventy-Two Transformations of Earthly Fiends, most had been through the Saints’ calculation and Transformation.
Otherwise, how could one restrain such a powerful Innate Deity.
Since they chose Sun Wukong as the one to trigger the Journey to the West Calamity, naturally everything had been calculated already.
Seeing Sun Wukong still hesitating and pondering, Wang Yang looked at the somewhat pitiable furry-faced, thunder Duke-mouthed Sun Wukong.
He had been calculated since before he was even born.
And the calculations extended even after the Seeking of Scriptures.
Of course, the one calculated in the Journey to the West was Sun Wukong, and in the Divine Enthronement, it was Nezha.
He was directly calculated into returning flesh to his mother and bones to his father.
However, although Wang Yang might change a small part, most likely he wouldn’t be able to change the vast majority.
After all, Saints are beings who stand at the pinnacle of time.
But everything still needs to be arranged slowly, a small change might lead to a significant difference later on.
“As for the Art of Transformation, you can slowly cultivate it yourself, I can’t help you there!”
Wang Yang shook his head and said, hearing this, Sun Wukong couldn’t help feeling a little helpless.
But he also knew learning Daoist Techniques requires one to comprehend them bit by bit, others can’t help.
“However, I do have an Art of Transformation here that might enable you to gain insights by analogy.
If you’re willing to learn, as your senior brother, I can naturally impart it to you!”
As soon as Wang Yang said this, Sun Wukong’s eyes lit up.
“Senior brother, are you serious?”
Sun Wukong looked at Wang Yang with shining eyes.
“Naturally, and I’ve actually been meaning to impart it to you!”
Wang Yang was noncommittal, then his expression became serious, and he continued, “However, before I impart it to you, I have something to instruct you on!”
“Please speak, senior brother!”
Sun Wukong didn’t dare delay.
After a moment of silence, Wang Yang spoke with utmost seriousness, “Junior brother, no matter who asks you, if they inquire who imparted your Cultivation Technique to you, you must not say it was your brother!”
The more widely spread the Cultivation Techniques, the less significant the issue; it would only make Sun Wukong’s Transformation even greater.
Sun Wukong was surprised to hear this and didn’t know why his senior brother was so cautious, but he knew his senior brother was also doing it for his own good.
Naturally, Sun Wukong didn’t hesitate at all and directly nodded in agreement.
Wang Yang nodded; he still trusted Sun Wukong on this point.
Even Patriarch Bodhi didn’t allow Sun Wukong to divulge that his Daoist Techniques were imparted here, and Sun Wukong truly had never spoken of it elsewhere.
“Additionally, I must remind you, junior brother, in any situation, you must consider whether you have full assurance before taking action, otherwise, you should not act!”
Wang Yang reminded Sun Wukong once more, and upon hearing Wang Yang’s words, Sun Wukong nodded, clearly taking it seriously.
“Old Sun understands, rest assured, brother!”
Sun Wukong said, nodding his head.
Wang Yang, seeing Sun Wukong’s reaction, also nodded and then continued, “Alright, listen carefully!”
Following that, Wang Yang’s lips moved slightly, as chants full of obscure incantations emanated from his mouth.
Listening to these incantations, Sun Wukong was amazed to find they shared similarities with the Thirty-Six Transformations of Celestial Gang, yet they were even more abstruse and profound.
At that moment, he became even more focused, determined not to miss a word, to grasp the profound mysteries being conveyed by Wang Yang.
One by one, these incantations merged into Sun Wukong’s heart.
With that came insight.
The Hongmeng Yin Yang Dao Transformation Decision contained numerous Transformations and Divine Skills.
It had a complementary effect with the Nine-Turn Profound Art.
As for Sun Wukong, who had cultivated such Cultivation Techniques and Divine Skills, whether he had the chance to reach the peak of a quasi-saint, or even step into sainthood,
based on Wang Yang’s understanding of the World of Journey to the West, it was probably not easy.
After all, from the creation of the primordial chaos until now, there have been only these few saints; no others have emerged, which shows the difficulty of achieving such a step.
However, Sun Wukong was a special being.
He was a remnant of Nuwa’s celestial repair, transformed from the celestial Patching Divine Stone, inherently containing Heaven-Repairing Merit.
Later, due to the convergence of the Nine Provinces Dragon Veins and the absorption of nature’s spiritual energy and the Essence of the Sun and Moon, he could be said to have seized the creation of heaven and earth.
Perhaps he could leverage this to achieve sainthood as well; it was just uncertain and needed to be seen through Sun Wukong’s own progress.
A series of humming sounds emerged, as countless spiritual energies converged around Sun Wukong, forming rune after rune.
These Runes appeared on Sun Wukong’s body, making him seem all the more mystical.
The infinite mysteries of Transformation were within them.
Witnessing this scene, Wang Yang couldn’t help but inwardly admire.
“Indeed, natural aptitude that shocks the heavens; he has understood in just a brief moment!”
It was known that Wang Yang could learn because he had the aid of a system, while Sun Wukong possessed such incredible innate talent that he could comprehend cultivation techniques and Divine Skills beyond others’ imagination, all without the need for external aids.
Even if this Divine Skill were given to a quasi-saint at their peak, they might not easily grasp it.
Yet, Sun Wukong could achieve it with ease.
“Could that legend be true?”
The legend spoke of Sun Wukong’s connection to a great calamity following Buddhism.
In theory, Buddhism could choose anyone, but they specifically chose Sun Wukong.
And Sun Wukong’s uniqueness led some to link him to the great calamity of Buddhism.
But whether this was the case could only be confirmed with time.
When Wang Yang first encountered these discussions, he didn’t care; after all, it had nothing to do with him.
But now that he had become a part of it, he felt there was a good chance it was true.
Sun Wukong’s uniqueness, along with the merit he possessed, perhaps constituted the sharp weapon the Two Saints of the West intended to use to contend with the calamity of Buddhism.
Seeing Sun Wukong, who was now shrouded in an unending spiritual glow, Wang Yang felt deeply moved.
“Ding, congratulations to the host, the Hongmeng Yin Yang Dao Transformation Decision you imparted has been comprehended.
Cultivation effects are syncing!”
A formidable aura radiated from Wang Yang’s body.
Mid-phase Earth Immortal!
