Chapter 13 - Chapter 13: Retribution for Grudges

Looking at the gradually distant figure of the Grand Princess, Sun Wukong's eyes gradually became cold, filled with murderous intent. He said, "Anyone who helps me, I will repay a hundredfold. Anyone who offends me, I will definitely seek revenge! Da Jue, in a little while, when I break through to the Earth Immortal realm, it will be your time of death!"

Dragging his body back to the Xieyue Sanxing Cave, he was cautious all the way, guarding against the possibility of Da Jue launching another sneak attack on the way. Fortunately, the journey was uneventful.

Back in his room, Sun Wukong let go of his guard and began to meditate and cultivate. Although the Patriarch Bodhi often disappeared mysteriously for extended periods, in the Three Stars Cave, Da Jue would not dare to make a move against him, no matter how crazy he was.

After this life-and-death battle, Sun Wukong gained new insights. He was confident that soon, he would break through to the Immortal realm and reach the Earth Immortal!

One month passed.

Two months passed.

Three months passed.

Finally, on this night, Sun Wukong, casting aside desires, refining himself, calming his mind, and emptying himself, achieved a profound state of meditation. In the depths of the Purple Palace, Yin blended with Yang, Yang merged with Yin, and the union of Yin and Yang created balance. Eventually, Yin and Yang condensed, giving birth to a golden lotus in the raging flame.

A powerful aura, several times stronger than before, emanated from Sun Wukong's body. It felt as if an infinite force was surging within him, converging into two golden beams of light that shot out from his eyes.

These two golden beams soared straight up into the sky, shining brilliantly like the sun, outshining the moon and stars.

Inside the Three Stars Cave, Sun Wukong's fellow disciples were awakened by the powerful golden light. Sensing the aura, they were shocked to discover that Sun Wukong, who had joined only a dozen years ago, had achieved the Dao fruit of Earth Immortality. Everyone was astonished.

In a alchemy room, a cultivator grumbled, "Da Jue Senior Brother, don't you think Master is too biased? We've been cultivating for thousands of years, and most of us are still stuck at the Immortal realm. Only exceptional talents like Senior Brother can achieve the Dao fruit of Earth Immortality. But that monkey, for him, cultivation is as simple as drinking water. He progresses in one year what takes us hundreds of years!"

Da Jue looked at the still lingering two astonishing golden beams in the sky, his eyes flashing uncertainly. His expression was extremely serious as he said, "Zhi Fang, don't casually criticize Master. Master has his reasons for doing things this way. We should focus on our own cultivation."

Hearing this, Zhi Fang grumbled a few more words reluctantly, "Da Jue Senior Brother, you've already achieved the Dao fruit of Earth Immortality. Naturally, you don't care about that monkey. But I've been cultivating for two thousand three hundred years and still remain at the Immortal realm. I'm not willing. With the secret technique given to that monkey by Master, at his cultivation speed, he might surpass you in a short time."

As the saying goes, what the speaker intends is different from what the listener understands. Hearing this, Da Jue's pupils suddenly contracted, and a look of panic flashed across his face.

He had been stuck at the Earth Immortal Second Stage for a long time without breaking through. According to Sun Wukong's cultivation speed, it was uncertain when he might catch up, creating an urgent sense of crisis.

The next day, Sun Wukong put on his clothes and walked out of the room with large strides.

After three months of cultivation, he had finally broken through from the Immortal realm to the Earth Immortal realm. His magical powers and spells were several times stronger than before.

Today, he decided to seek revenge and repay Da Jue for the injuries he had suffered. As the saying goes, a gentleman seeks revenge for ten years. But this didn't fit Sun Wukong's character; he wanted to take revenge immediately. He couldn't even wait for one night. However, the huge gap in strength between him and Da Jue had made it impossible for him to take revenge before.

So, he endured for three months, suppressing a burst of resentment in his heart. He needed to release it as soon as possible.

Sun Wukong, with long strides, quickly arrived at the door of the alchemy room where Da Jue often stayed.

"Bang!"

Sun Wukong took a step forward and kicked the door of the alchemy room, shattering it to pieces. With a menacing aura, he walked in.

"You monkey, you truly have no regard for authority, daring to intrude into Senior Brother Da Jue's alchemy place!" Zhi Fang, filled with anger, scolded as he watched Sun Wukong enter the room.

"Noisy!" Sun Wukong didn't even spare him a glance. He casually swung his palm, slapping Zhi Fang away as if swatting a fly.

This slap sent Zhi Fang flying three zhang away, spitting blood, and his face swelled like a pig's head.

"You..." Zhi Fang raised his arm, trembling, pointing at Sun Wukong, about to say something.

"If you dare to be noisy again, I'll slaughter you!" Sun Wukong suddenly turned his head, his eyes piercing like lightning, his voice cold and terrifying.

Feeling the astonishing killing intent in Sun Wukong's eyes, Zhi Fang's heart chilled. He was scared into stammering and couldn't speak.

"Wukong, what exactly do you want to do?" Da Jue's face turned iron-green, his voice deep and low.

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong burst into laughter, saying, "What do I want to do? Naturally, I've come for revenge! Have you forgotten the hatred between us? Or is your brain not functioning properly!"

"This is Master's abode; dare you fight me here?" Da Jue said solemnly.

"Master passed on his magical powers to me, and I naturally respect him. But how can I not seek revenge for the deep enmity between us?" Sun Wukong replied.

"Smart Senior Brother, is your memory still fresh about the last incident? Now that you've broken through to the Earth Immortal realm, do you think you can contend with me? It's truly laughable! Don't you know that in the Earth Immortal realm, every tier you ascend, your strength will double? You're merely at the first tier of the Earth Immortal realm; do you dare seek revenge against me? It's truly ignorant!

If you endure for some more time, reaching the third tier of the Earth Immortal realm, I'm afraid I might fall into your hands. But right now, your actions are equivalent to seeking death. To prevent future disasters, even if I have to face Master's punishment, I'll still slay you here!" Da Jue's eyes became sharp, and a boiling killing intent surged within him.
