A carefree soldier king in the city

Chapter 654 2 Ancestral Witches

Pigsy said, "Brother Monkey, you wait here. Once I, Old Pig, go in, I'll break through that damn array with a single rake."

Sun Wukong quickly said, "Bajie, you're too late. Let me finish what I have to say."

Pigsy said, "Brother Monkey, you speak! I, Old Pig, am listening!"

Sun Wukong said, "Master, Bajie, Sha Wujing, when you come in, be careful of the immortal sword on the door."

Tang Sanzang said, “Don’t worry, we know. Wukong, I remember that when the Tongtian Sect Leader set up this formation in front of the mountain gate, Yuanshi Tianzun, Laozi, Jieyin Daoren, Zhunti Daoren and others broke it together. Today, the four of us, master and disciples, will surely be able to break this formation by working together.”

Sun Wukong said, "Alright, Master, then you can each enter through the other three gates of the formation. When the time comes, we will all use our powers together and we will surely be able to break this formation."

"Brother Monkey, I, Old Pig, am coming in."

As they spoke, Pigsy entered the Li Gate, Sandy entered the Dui Gate, Tang Sanzang entered the Kan Gate, and Sun Wukong entered the Zhen Gate.

Now, let's talk about Pigsy entering the Immortal Slaughtering Gate. He transformed his Nine-Toothed Rake into a circular shield, holding it above his head. The moment he stepped into the gate, Pigsy activated the array's core. A thunderous roar erupted from the ground, and the Immortal Slaughtering Sword on the gate trembled, unleashing ten thousand sword energies towards Pigsy. The shield formed from his Nine-Toothed Rake quickly rose to meet the attack, simultaneously sprouting a thousand golden flowers and cascading beads, continuously blocking the Immortal Slaughtering Sword's attack. Then, Pigsy entered the Immortal Slaughtering Gate and stood in the detached palace.

Sha Wujing transformed his demon-subduing staff into a small red banner, which he held atop his head. The moment he entered the Gate of Immortal Extinction, he triggered the array's core, thunder roared, the Immortal Extinction Sword trembled, and countless sword energies shot forth. The red banner quickly waved, and countless fireballs met the sword energies head-on. One fireball struck the Immortal Extinction Sword, instantly silencing it. Sha Wujing then entered the Gate of Dui and stopped at the Dui Palace.

Holding his Nine-Dragon Staff, Tang Sanzang stepped straight into the Trapped Immortal Gate. A thunderous sound shook the Trapped Immortal Sword on the gate, unleashing a torrent of sword energy. Tang Sanzang quickly raised his Nine-Dragon Staff, and countless golden rays shot out from it, striking the Trapped Immortal Sword and silencing it. Tang Sanzang then entered the Trapped Immortal Gate and stopped at the Kan Palace.

The three of them, master and disciples, entered the "Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation" together, and they were all covered in sweat, looking like they were struggling a lot.

"Wukong, we have entered the core of the formation and controlled the sword on the door," Tang Sanzang said. "Now we will use our powers together. As long as we take down the sword on the door, the 'Slaying Immortals Sword Formation' will be broken."

"Wukong, you just focus on controlling the sword on the door, and we'll lend you a hand."

Nezha's voice rang out from outside the formation. It was Nezha, along with Fairy Biyao, the White Dragon, and the Little Dragon Girl who had arrived. Together they removed the four swords. With the four swords removed, the "Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation" was broken. With the "Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation" broken, the "Limitless Formation" became an empty shell. The group then exerted their power together and, in one fell swoop, also broke the "Limitless Formation".

The great formation has been broken, and Dijiang has regained his freedom, but he cannot leave immediately and needs some time to recuperate before he can move around.

Sun Wukong approached the group and said, "Master, what brings you all here?"

Tang Sanzang said, "The Buddha is dead. Where can we find a place to stand on Mount Ling?"

"Nezha, what about you guys?" Sun Wukong asked.

Nezha said, "It's a long story. Since the Jade Emperor died, the Queen Mother has been in charge of the Heavenly Court, but many people have started to scheme against each other in secret. I couldn't stand it, so I simply left and left, out of sight, out of mind."

“Good, good,” Sun Wukong clapped his hands and said, “If this place doesn’t keep me, there are plenty of other places that will. Nezha, I, your old Sun, have already touched the threshold of the Dao of Limitlessness. Once I have comprehended the Dao of Limitlessness, I will take you to the Great World of Limitlessness.”

Tang Sanzang said, "Wukong, monks do not lie. The Way of Wuji is the Way of Immortality. Even the Three Pure Ones could not comprehend the Way of Immortality."

Sun Wukong laughed and said, "Master, I did not lie to you. Think about it, I, Old Sun, ended the lives of Buddha and the Jade Emperor without lifting a finger. Why is that? It's because I, Old Sun, am more powerful than them. Now, looking at the Three Realms, I, Old Sun, do not take anyone seriously."

“Wukong,” Nezha said, “I once overheard Yuanshi Tianzun say that the Wuji Great World does indeed exist, and only those who have attained the Dao of Wuji can enter it.”

Sun Wukong said, "That's it. I, Old Sun, will take you inside soon."

As they were talking, Dijiang recovered some of his strength and angrily said, "That damned Tathagata actually used such a vicious formation to trap me. He is utterly despicable."

Sun Wukong said, “The name of this formation is itself detestable. The name ‘Zhu Xian’ alone is not something that Buddhism or Taoism would do. Moreover, this sword has the names ‘Zhu,’ ‘Lu,’ ‘Tun,’ and ‘Jue,’ which are not things that Buddhism or Taoism would use.”

Dijiang said, “Sun Wukong, since you killed Buddha and beheaded the Jade Emperor, you are my friend. Moreover, you have now helped me escape this damned formation. From now on, I, Dijiang, will be at your command and will have no disloyalty.”

Sun Wukong said happily, "That's great! Since you are the Ancestral Witch of Space Speed, and your speed is even faster than my Somersault Cloud, how about you become my mount?"

Di Jiang said, "No problem."

Sun Wukong was overjoyed and said, "Dijiang, I, your old Sun, want to ask you a question. As far as I know, after the Great God Pangu created this primordial world, his primordial spirit transformed into the Three Pure Ones, and his essence and blood transformed into the Twelve Ancestral Witches. You are the head of the Twelve Ancestral Witches. Do you know the whereabouts of the other Ancestral Witches?"

Dijiang said, "Great Sage, why are you asking this?"

Sun Wukong said, "I've heard that if we gather the twelve Ancestral Witches, we can set up the 'Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation' and even condense the true form of Pangu. Is this true?"

Dijiang said, "That's right. This 'Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Grand Formation' can only be set up by us twelve Ancestral Witches."

Sun Wukong said, "The Great God Pangu is the head of the three thousand Chaos Gods and controls the Law of Power among the three thousand laws. If I, Old Sun, could possess the power of the primordial world, I could attain the peak of the Great Dao and achieve the immortal myth of eternal life."

Dijiang said, "Great Sage, I understand what you mean, but it may be difficult to gather us twelve Ancestral Witches together."

Sun Wukong said, "Tell me about it."

Di Jiang said, "Among the Twelve Ancestral Witches, some of them are no longer here."

"Oh? So that means the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation is no longer usable?" Sun Wukong asked.

Dijiang replied, "That's not necessarily true, Great Sage. If you want to obtain the power of the Primordial World, why go to the trouble of finding all twelve Ancestral Witches? There is a way that can also give you the power of the Primordial World."
