65 -65: Not Going for the Real Thing, Crafting a Replica
Given the speculation we now have, things should become much easier.
Sun Wukong was interested in the Sea-Calming Needle, and all he had to do was not appear too enthusiastic and wait for Wukong to take the bait on his own.
Moonlight Bodhisattva had already sent a telepathic message to the Four Seas Dragon Kings, telling them to be patient.
They just had to wait for Sun Wukong to come knocking on their door.
The Dragon Kings of the Four Seas, having heard this, also breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as Sun Wukong didn’t make a fuss about the Sea-Calming Needle and didn’t blame them, it didn’t matter to them whether he took it or not.
In fact, they didn’t want Sun Wukong to take it, because the karmic force generated from taking the Sea-Calming Needle would fall upon them.
In the blink of an eye, several months passed.
There was no stir at Mount Huaguo.
There was none of the anticipated action of Sun Wukong coming to the Eastern Sea to take the Sea-Calming Needle.
“Elder brother, shall we still wait?”
Moonlight Bodhisattva couldn’t wait any longer and frowned as he spoke.
“Wait, perhaps the macaque is in seclusion again!
We mustn’t act too hastily!” Sunlight Bodhisattva said after pondering with a grimace.
…
In the blink of an eye, several more months passed.
“Elder brother, shall we still wait?”
Moonlight Bodhisattva’s voice rose again.
For some reason, he always had a bad premonition.
Sunlight Bodhisattva’s face also looked a bit unsightly, but he still managed to maintain his composure and said, “Wait a bit longer, this macaque must be playing hard to get.
We mustn’t act too hastily and waste all previous efforts!”
They both believed that Sun Wukong was only considering his pride and that was why he hadn’t gone to the Eastern Sea yet.
Moonlight Bodhisattva took a deep breath and could only nod his head.
So they continued to wait.
What they didn’t know was that within Sun Wukong’s cave heaven…
He was indeed in seclusion in his cave dwelling.
However, in front of him, a ball of flames converged.
And within it, a fiery red liquid was being stretched out under Sun Wukong’s control.
These treasures were all powerful heaven and earth treasures he had found in the Slanting Moon Three Stars Cave.
As time passed, the liquid of these treasures was being stretched out gradually, and patterns began to form on its surface.
If one looked closely, they would find that this treasure was very similar to the Sea-Calming Needle.
If Sunlight Bodhisattva saw this, he would be shocked to discover that Sun Wukong was actually refining a Sea-Calming Needle replica among magical treasures.
But with the barriers of multiple layers of formations, and Sun Wukong having strengthened the power of his cave dwelling’s formation…
Not to mention those outside, even the monkeys and his descendants didn’t know what was happening.
And as time slipped away, this rod became more and more perfect.
However, the time needed to refine treasures was not short.
After seeing the Sea-Calming Needle the last time, Sun Wukong realized what kind of magical treasures suited him.
So knowing that he couldn’t pull out the Sea-Calming Needle, Wukong decided to refine one himself.
In the blink of an eye, several more months passed.
Moonlight Bodhisattva eagerly anticipated some movement from Sun Wukong every day, but all was in vain. freeweɓnovel.cøm
“Elder brother, are we still going to wait?”
Moonlight Bodhisattva was almost doubting his own existence by now.
He had a look of utter despair.
“We won’t wait any longer, let’s see what this macaque is actually up to in his cave dwelling!”
Sunlight Bodhisattva also couldn’t wait any longer.
If they continued to wait, it seemed like it might be a hundred years before anything changed.
Thereupon, both of them looked intently at Sun Wukong’s formation.
Then, his form relaxed as he headed towards the Eastern Sea.
“Are we going to Mount Huaguo to see what Sun Wukong is up to?”
Hearing Sunlight Bodhisattva’s order, the East Sea Dragon King couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
He had thought he could live peacefully from now on, but he never expected the Sunlight Bodhisattva to still not let them off the hook.
“Yes, we can’t delay any longer, set off immediately for Mount Huaguo and pay a visit!”
Moonlight Bodhisattva also couldn’t help but nod, giving the order.
The Dragon Kings of the Four Seas exchanged glances, and although they were quite reluctant, they could only nod in agreement.
“We will heed the command of both Bodhisattvas, gather our shrimp soldiers and crab generals at once, and head for Mount Huaguo to see for ourselves!”
East Sea Dragon King Ao Guang nodded continuously, not daring to delay.
Afterward, Sunlight Bodhisattva and Moonlight Bodhisattva’s forms vanished from sight.
“It seems the Sea-Calming Needle will be impossible to keep, but it’s already not easy to have delayed for this long!”
The East Sea Dragon King let out a sigh.
The other Three Sea Dragon Kings couldn’t help but nod as well, they knew the East Sea Dragon King was right.
Moreover, they were actually quite curious as to why Sun Wukong, when faced with such a treasure, could remain so calm and actually not take it.
Thereupon, the Four Seas Dragon Kings assembled their hands and, with numerous shrimp soldiers and crab generals clearing the way, they wobbled out of the Eastern Sea, heading towards Mount Huaguo.
Sunlight Bodhisattva and Moonlight Bodhisattva naturally followed, but they were hidden in the clouds of the Void.
The procession of the Four Seas Dragon Kings was formidable, and by the time they arrived at Mount Huaguo,
they found the formation outside Sun Wukong’s cave dwelling seemed to have grown more powerful.
At this moment, the entire cave dwelling and formation were connected.
Completely hidden within the mountains.
Had they not been there before, they would’ve thought there wasn’t any cave dwelling here at all.
As the Boundary-Breaking Pearl rose, beams of five-colored light shone.
The divine radiance was blindingly brilliant.
The once-concealed powerful formation appeared before them.
Then, a passage several zhang in size was revealed.
Allowing only for the Four Seas Dragon Kings and others to enter and exit, the divine senses of Sunlight Bodhisattva and Moonlight Bodhisattva silently landed on Ao Guang in that moment and entered the formation.
However, upon entering the cave heaven, the Four Seas Dragon Kings were taken aback by everything before them.
All the monkeys of Mount Huaguo held an iron rod in their hands.
Under the leadership of Marshal Ma Liu and other monkeys, they practiced with vigor and intensity.
“What is this…”
Eyeing the iron rods in the monkeys’ hands of Mount Huaguo, the Four Seas Dragon Kings were puzzled, these rods looked too similar to the Sea-Calming Needle.
“Honored Dragon Kings, these were forged by our Great King, what do you think?”
Marshal Ma Liu, seeing the Four Seas Dragon Kings had arrived, walked over with a smile, lifting the iron rod in his hand and speaking.
“Forged by your Great King?”
Looking at Sun Wukong’s cave dwelling and then at the black iron rods in Marshal Ma Liu and the other monkeys’ hands,
The Four Seas Dragon Kings were all stunned.
These iron rods, both in appearance and style, were the spitting image of the Sea-Calming Needle from his East Sea Dragon Palace.
To say that Sun Wukong was uninterested in their Sea-Calming Needle, they would never believe it to their deaths.
After that, they were perplexed.
If the monkey liked it so much, why not take it?
They weren’t refusing!
What’s the point of forging so many replicas in his own cave dwelling?
However, since Sun Wukong had not yet appeared, it wasn’t appropriate for them to inquire.
Even if the Four Seas Dragon Kings wanted to ask, there was no one to answer.
Not only were the Four Seas Dragon Kings shocked by this scene, but Sunlight Bodhisattva and Moonlight Bodhisattva, whose divine senses had entered, were also taken aback.
Looking at the iron rods in the hands of the monkeys present, they felt they had waited in vain.
They had thought Sun Wukong was in seclusion, but it turned out he was crafting replicas of the Sea-Calming Needle…
