Chapter 643 -644: Realm Fall (Third Update!)
Chapter 643 -644: Realm Fall (Third Update!)
“Primordial Taiji Da Luo Gold Immortal… How is this possible? That Demon Monkey… Things have gotten worse!”
Primordial Heavenly Venerable had a life-and-death grudge against Sun Wukong, and now that Sun Wukong had proven the Tao and become a Saint, he would surely seek him out for a reckoning. Moreover, Sun Wukong had become a Saint by Slaying Three Corpses, which was far more powerful than being a Merit Saint of the Heavenly Dao; that was on the level of the Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor!
Compared to Primordial Heavenly Venerable, The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord and the Sect Hierarch’s reactions were much calmer. They had long recognized Sun Wukong’s extraordinary nature and knew Sun Wukong planned to follow the path of Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor by Slaying Three Corpses to Merge with the Dao and Become a Saint. They just didn’t expect Sun Wukong to prove the Tao and become a Saint this quickly.
“Wukong, this kid, is really strong!”
At the gate of the Greenwave Palace in Supreme Pure Heaven, the Sect Hierarch looked up at the massive and majestic figure above the sky, a sigh showing on his face. He remembered the first time he saw Sun Wukong, who was merely a junior with great potential, not much different in strength from his disciple, the Green Lotus Sword Immortal, Luo Bai. However, now Sun Wukong had not only caught up to him but also surpassed him!
Reaching the level of the teacher, the Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor, was not something one could achieve just by wanting it!
Even he and his senior brother, The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord, were only able to consecutively slay the Evil Corpse and the Corpse of Desire due to the reduced pressure of proving the Tao and becoming a Saint during this third grand calamity of heaven and earth. They still had a considerable distance to go before Merging the Three Corpses, and even if they successfully merged, they would only be equivalent to Sun Wukong’s current level.
“No, I cannot let this kid get too far ahead. I must go into seclusion and merge the three corpses as quickly as possible!”
Turning around, the Sect Hierarch entered the Greenwave Palace, and the palace’s protection formation activated. The Sect Hierarch had made up his mind to not leave seclusion until he had merged with the Three Corpses and entered the realm of the Primordial Taiji Da Luo Gold Immortal!
The reaction of The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord followed suit with the Sect Hierarch, and seeing Sun Wukong’s performance, his competitive spirit was also stirred. Being overtaken by a former junior like this put a tremendous amount of pressure on The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord.
“In an era of great contention, not advancing is retreating. This old man should also strive to push his limits!”
The same sentiment existed not only within Western Heaven Spiritual Mountain and Heavenly Court but also in the Netherworld.
“Wukong, little brother, has indeed become a Saint! But I wonder to what extent he has condensed his Dao?”
Yama Heavenly Son, looking at the colossal figure of Sun Wukong in the sky, a glint flashed through his eyes. In this era of great contention, the fluctuation of the Great Dao of heaven and earth had lowered the difficulty of becoming a Saint and the subsequent difficulty of further enhancement. He, too, had now reached the realm of Slaying Three Corpses Merit Saint, catching up to The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord and the Sect Hierarch, surpassing Primordial Heavenly Venerable.
Of course, this was related to Yama Heavenly Son absorbing the Power of the Six Paths of Reincarnation and gaining a complete understanding of the Great Dao of Reincarnation. Otherwise, his progress wouldn’t have been so rapid.
In comparison to Yama Heavenly Son, the ancient ancestor of the Nether River had only reached the peak realm of Slaying Two Corpses Merit Saint and still had some distance from slaying the Third Corpse – Corpse of Desire, though he was close.
“Thank goodness that Yama blocked me from striking against Sun Wukong back then, and later even helped him; otherwise, it would be disastrous now!”
The ancient ancestor of the Nether River stood above the Boundless Blood Sea, looking up at the sky, a cold sweat dripping down his cheek, inwardly greatly relieved. It was fortunate that his relationship with Sun Wukong was friendly rather than hostile; otherwise, his mood might have been as complicated as that of Buddha and the Jade Emperor now.
Flower-Fruit Mountain, deep within Water Curtain Cave Heaven, inside the ninth layer of the Heaven-Piercing Tower.
“Is this the sensation of Slaying the Three Corpses to Merge with the Dao and Become a Saint? The Primordial Taiji Da Luo Golden Immortal is indeed powerful! But why does it feel like I have only stepped into some basic level? Strange, why would I, Old Sun, use a word like ‘basic’?”
Wukong clenched his fists, a flash of light at his brow’s center, and immediately a pale purple ring of light ascended from his feet, faintly shimmering over his body. This was a ring of light that had formed only after breaking through to the Primordial Taiji Da Luo Golden Immortal Realm. However, Wukong suddenly felt strange, as this wasn’t the only ring of light; with the enhancement of his cultivation strength, he should receive more such rings.
Wukong didn’t know why he felt this way, but he believed that his feelings were not mistaken. Perhaps, this was something he could sense only after reaching the level of the Primordial Taiji Da Luo Golden Immortal?
Or perhaps, the Primordial Taiji Da Luo Golden Immortal, was merely a starting point. Beyond this, there were even higher levels!
The Primordial Wuji Da Luo Golden Immortal, the Chaos Saint, even higher!
“It’s a pity that I’m about to lose such a realm!”
Wukong sighed. Right now, he truly felt as though he could control everything in the world at will. The likes of Ran Deng Ancient Buddha, the likes of Tathagata Buddha, appeared utterly insignificant before him at this moment—mere chickens and dogs that he could wipe out with a flip of his hand!
It was just unfortunate that he had to soon form an External Incarnation, and this wonderful feeling could only last for a little while!

At that moment, Wukong gave a wry smile as the Divine Rings wrapping around him became even more dazzling. A figure appeared from within, which was previously a body formed from the fusion of Three Corpses.
“Cloning Divine Powers!”
With a thought, Wukong activated his Cloning Divine Powers, and a clone walked out from within him. After exchanging a glance with the body formed from the fusion of Three Corpses, they moved toward each other and began to merge.
The clone, created by the Cloning Divine Powers, and the body formed from the fusion of Three Corpses merged again, forming an External Incarnation!
Above the heavens, the Nine-colored Celestial Light suddenly paused, and the next moment, it abruptly withdrew. All the auspicious signs in the sky vanished, followed by the dispersion of Wukong’s gigantic figure in the heavens. Wukong’s realm had now fallen from the Primordial Taiji Da Luo Golden Immortal back to a Half-Step Saint, and because the Three Corpses had merged into the clone forming an External Incarnation, he now had no Corpse left inside him, plunging directly back to the initial state of a Half-Step Saint.
Wukong’s face was filled with a wry smile. This method of refining an External Incarnation, perhaps only he would dare to use it. Now, he had returned to the beginning—all Three Corpses gone, and his strength had dropped far more than when he had first merged the Three Corpses!
“Well, I have already slain the Three Corpses, and now it is impossible to slay them again. I can only pursue the path of Proving the Tao through power. After I help Zi Xia recover her missing soul and spirits, I’ll take another trip to the Polar Realm of Heaven. The boundless stellar spiritual energy in the heart of the World Tree will serve perfectly as the foundation for Proving the Tao through power!”
The sudden disappearance of the phenomena above the heavens shocked the Three Realms, just like when Wukong had suddenly become a saint earlier on. The Demon Clan around Flower-Fruit Mountain had already received the news and were not too surprised, but the various powers held differing intentions.
