Journey to the West: Sacrifice to the Ten Thousand Realms, start by exchanging stones for skills

Chapter 74 The first battle with Sun Wukong!Old monkey’s reminder!
Jiang Ye was speechless when he heard Sun Wukong's words.

Although he is very confident in his own strength, if he fights Sun Wukong, he will not be able to beat him no matter what.

He quickly shook his head: "The king thinks highly of me. How can I be the king's opponent with my humble skills?"

"just forget it?"

Hearing this, all the monkeys were extremely disappointed.

Sun Wukong was unwilling to give up. He laughed and said: "Don't worry, I don't have to use all my strength. I will control my cultivation to be at the same level as you and I won't bully you!"

Other monkeys also echoed: "Yes Jiang Ye, the king will not bully you!"

"Just agree, I want to see you compete with the king!"

"..."

Jiang Ye saw Sun Wukong insisting, and if he persisted, he would not give face to the other party.

If that's the case, say yes.

It just so happened that I hadn't fought for more than half a year. Now that I had a breakthrough in strength and learned a lot of new magical powers, I could take this opportunity to get active.

So he nodded: "Okay, I agree!"

Seeing this, all the monkeys cheered, and they were all excited.

Sun Wukong urged: "Let's go outside the cave!"

So, surrounded by a large group of monkeys, they came to the place outside Shuiliandong where martial arts performances were usually performed.

Jiang Ye took out his stick and got ready to attack.

Sun Wukong thought for a while, but instead of taking out the Ruyi Golden Cudgel, he told the monkey: "Bring me a stick!"

Soon, a little monkey handed him an ordinary iron rod.

His Ruyi Golden Cudgel is an acquired spiritual treasure. Now, it is naturally impossible to use that kind of weapon when competing with Jiang Ye.

Sun Wukong danced the iron rod and said to Jiang Ye: "Jiang Ye, come on!"

Jiang Ye was not polite, his body turned into electric current, and the stick in his hand fell towards Sun Wukong with heavy power!
He knew that Sun Wukong was stronger than him. Even if he suppressed his strength until the late stage of Lianxu Hedao, just like himself, it would still be difficult for him to suppress him.

Sure enough, when Sun Wukong saw Jiang Ye's move, not only did he not dodge, but his eyes lit up: "You do have some tricks up your sleeve."

Immediately, the one-handed stick in his hand blocked the top of his head at an incredible speed.

"Chong!"

With a loud bang, Jiang Ye's refined iron rod landed on Sun Wukong's ordinary iron rod. Instead of cutting it off, it was knocked out.

But this power was quickly released by him and bullied him again.

This time, the shadows of his sticks were so densely packed that it was hard to tell which one was real. The monkeys were dazzled and their eyes moved around.

But Sun Wukong seemed to have seen the truth a long time ago. With a seemingly casual wave of the iron rod in his hand, there was an explosion. He actually easily saw through these shadows and blocked Jiang Ye's stick again.

The powerful force from Jiang Ye's stick poured down, and the remaining power was like a storm, which cracked the surrounding land and caused all the monkeys to retreat.

But Sun Wukong is still calm and calm, and he doesn't seem to be stressed at all.

Seeing this scene, the little brachiosaurus monkeys around them widened their eyes in surprise.

Of course he could see that the stick technique Jiang Ye used now was no longer the "Thunderbolt Stick Technique" before.

It's a more profound stick technique.

He scratched his head and secretly thought that he would find Jiang Ye later and ask him to teach him this stick technique.

Jiang Ye competed with Sun Wukong. He constantly changed his magical powers, attack methods, and displayed various combinations of magical powers.

The power and movement resounded throughout Huaguo Mountain, leaving a bunch of monkeys around stunned.

His eyes seemed to say: Jiang Ye has become so powerful!

If ordinary strong men, those below the Earthly Immortal Realm, were to fight Jiang Ye, they would naturally have few opponents.

It's just that he is facing Sun Wukong.

Even if he tried his best and tried different ways to attack, he would take it lightly.

During this period, Sun Wukong kept waving the iron rod with one hand, and his steps never even left the spot.

Jiang Ye almost doubted his life when he looked at him.

He had originally heard Sun Wukong say that he had suppressed his cultivation to be like his own, and he didn't use the golden cudgel, so he thought he would have a slight chance of winning.

Even if you can't defeat him, you can at least give him a close fight, right?

Who knew this would be the case now?

Jiang Ye carefully observed Sun Wukong's moves and found that his cultivation had indeed always been the same as his own, but he just couldn't suppress him and was easily resisted by him.

He quickly understood that even if the other party suppressed his cultivation to be the same as his, it did not mean that his strength was really the same.

After all, in terms of strength, in addition to cultivation being an important factor, combat experience, physical quality, reaction ability, etc. are also important.

Although Sun Wukong has suppressed his cultivation, he cannot restrain himself in these aspects.

This resulted in him being no match even if he tried his best.

Jiang Ye quickly accepted this reality and did not think about defeating the opponent, so he tried his best to use all his methods to enhance his combat experience.

So for the next half day, the entire Huaguo Mountain was filled with fierce fighting noises that never stopped.

The fight continued until nightfall, when Jiang Ye exhausted all his mana and finally stopped.

"I, I lost!"

Jiang Ye gasped and said to Sun Wukong.

Hearing this, Sun Wukong chuckled, threw away the iron rod, patted Jiang Ye on the shoulder and said:
"Not bad, not bad, you little monkey has a great future!"

"Keep working hard, maybe I can reach where I am now in the future!"

Hearing this, Jiang Ye was speechless.

This Sun Wukong actually underestimates himself so much?
Although his current strength is strong, he is not at the top in the entire world.

His goal is to become a giant in this world, or even transcend this world. How can it stop at him?

With the Tai Chi altar here and my own hard work, I will definitely be able to reach this point!
As for losing to Sun Wukong, he was not discouraged at all.

After all, he was facing Sun Wukong.Now, even if Sun Wukong has not reached his strongest state, he has at least become a Golden Immortal!
Fighting against such a strong man, not only did he not lose immediately, but he persisted for nearly a day. This is something to be proud of!
It goes without saying that Sun Wukong himself is powerful with his feet.Besides, his master was the Patriarch Bodhi, a being who was accomplished in all three schools of Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism.

It is even said that Bodhi is the good corpse of a saint.

Even a pig can soar into the sky and surpass most cultivators if he worships such a being as his teacher.

What's more, what about Sun Wukong?

Although he has a Tai Chi altar, he still needs to collect the sacrifices by himself. After obtaining the magical power, he also needs to explore by himself without anyone to guide him.

However, he did not object to Sun Wukong's words. Instead, he smiled and nodded, saying: "I will definitely work harder!"

With this sentence, it would be more reasonable for him to retreat for a long time or go out to find sacrifices!

Sun Wukong left quickly, and a group of little monkeys immediately gathered around, pleading with Jiang Ye:

"General Liu, the stick technique you used earlier was so powerful!"

"What's the name of that stick technique? Can you teach it to me? I want to learn it!"

"Yes, yes, I have now learned the "Thunderbolt Stick Technique", "Thunderbolt Body Technique", and "Water Control Technique". Please teach me!"

"..."

Faced with the entreaties of the monkeys, Jiang Ye did not refuse and replied:
"My new stick technique is called the Qianjun Stick Technique. It is indeed much more powerful than the Thunderbolt Stick Technique."

"But it's more difficult to learn. If you want to learn, just prepare for the apprenticeship ceremony."

All the monkeys were overjoyed when they heard this, and immediately thanked Jiang Ye and went to prepare gifts one after another.

Seeing this scene, Sun Wukong, who was eating fruit not far away from Jiang Ye, looked confused.

I don’t understand at all, what is Jiang Ye doing?
He could understand teaching the monkeys magical powers, but why did he need gifts?
He came to Jiang Ye and asked, "Jiang Ye, why do you teach the children that they need gifts?"

Jiang Ye smiled: "I have worked hard to acquire these magical powers. If they want to learn, they naturally need to be given some apprenticeships."

"I can't teach them in vain, right?"

Hearing this, Sun Wukong suddenly realized and couldn't help laughing: "You little monkey, you actually have such a plan!"

He didn't seem to be angry.

After all, he knew how precious magical powers were in this world, especially on the small closed island of Huaguoshan.

Even if Jiang Ye is from the same tribe as the monkeys, he has every reason to hide his secrets.

But Jiang Ye did not do this. Instead, he was willing to teach, just asking for a little gift.

This is already kindhearted.

In his heart, he thought more highly of Jiang Ye.

In fact, Sun Wukong also wanted to learn from Jiang Ye and teach the monkeys magical powers.

However, the magical powers he learned were all learned from his master, and he did not dare to spread them to others without the consent of Patriarch Bodhi.

At this moment, the 72-hole Demon King also came around and begged Sun Wukong:
"Please, Your Majesty, let Marshal Liu teach us his skills!"

After they were conquered by Sun Wukong, they usually came to Huaguo Mountain as guests.

Today, Sun Wukong and Jiang Ye fought for so long that they were all attracted to it.

Seeing Jiang Ye display all kinds of skills, everyone is envious.

I also saw that Jiang Ye was willing to teach other little monkeys, and I also wanted to learn.

It was only because he was afraid that Jiang Ye would be racist and not teach him, that he came to plead with Sun Wukong.

When Sun Wukong heard this, he said impatiently: "You can ask Jiang Ye yourself!"

Immediately after yawning, he left and went back to Shuiliandong to sleep.

The Demon King of Cave 72 then begged Jiang Ye again.

Contrary to their expectations, Jiang Ye did not refuse their entreaties, but nodded in the same way:

"You can learn if you want, but you should also prepare a apprenticeship ceremony."

Hearing this, all the demon kings were overjoyed, thanked Jiang Ye one after another, and prepared to go back to the cave.

Soon, the front of the Water Curtain Cave became empty and deserted.

Jiang Ye sat down and spent half an hour restoring his mana to full strength.

He immediately got up and saw that the monkeys hadn't come back yet, so he came to the old red horse monkey.

At this time, the old red horse monkey was lying on a big stone sleeping.

"Wake up, wake up." Jiang Ye woke him up.

The old red-armed horse monkey woke up and said with sleepy eyes: "Jiang Ye, what do you want from me?"

Jiang Ye was surprised to find that he had also broken through the Lianxu Hedao.

It seems that he has been sleeping a lot during this time.

Jiang Ye was a little envious. This old red-armed monkey could absorb the essence of the sun and moon just by sleeping, achieving the effect of improving his cultivation. Isn't it too comfortable?
Much more comfortable than myself.

Hearing the question from the old red-armed horse monkey, Jiang Ye asked: "Nothing happened on Huaguo Mountain recently, right?"

When the old red-armed horse monkey heard this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes at Jiang Ye: "With the king here, what can happen?"

Immediately he lay down again, turned his back, and continued to sleep.

Seeing this, Jiang Ye turned around and left.

Unexpectedly, the old monkey suddenly called him: "If you have nothing to do recently, just work hard to practice hard and stop messing around."

As for why, he did not explain.

Jiang Ye took a deep look at the old monkey with his back turned to him, and thought: It seems that the old monkey must have noticed something.

However, if you think about it, the red-breasted horse monkey's talent is to avoid death and prolong life. This old monkey can also create such strange magical powers as "Gou Mingshu". It seems that he is quite accomplished in this aspect.

Even if he didn't see any plot, he probably sensed that danger was coming, so he practiced so hard.

"I see."

In response, Jiang Ye didn't bother him anymore and walked directly outside.
