Virtue Palace, Earth Virtues Star Monarch cautiously leads the Immortals to guard the Wanling Tree.
Sun Wukong suppresses the Totem in midair, the fierce collision between the Hongmeng Totem and the Heavenly Dao intertwines like lightning, illuminating the palace splendidly.
After a long time, everything calmed down.
Sun Wukong landed on the ground, looking at the now-stable chessboard.
"Is this really the right thing to do?"
Suddenly, such a thought flashed through his mind.
Is it truly the right path to merge the Totem with the Heavenly Dao?
Clearly, the Hongmeng Totem is unwilling to be absorbed by the Heavenly Dao; can he suppress it repeatedly?
"Have I forgotten something?"
Sun Wukong felt there was something not quite right.
At that moment, he suddenly sensed a distant and vast aura.
"Ao Luan is ready."
Sun Wukong knew that Ao Luan had completed the task he assigned.
While Immortal Zhenyuan is still constructing a mini-world, Ao Luan's efficiency is evidently much faster.
"Emperor Yao."
Sun Wukong turned and looked at Emperor Yao: "How about you accompany me on a trip?"
"A trip?"
Emperor Yao, puzzled, asked: "To where?"
"Heavenly Court."
Sun Wukong emanated a massive aura, stepping on the void, with the Totem flickering beneath his feet, seemingly shattering space itself.
"What is this…"
Emperor Yao was shocked.
"Let's go!"
Sun Wukong reached out his hand, grabbed Emperor Yao, and a rift of void burst open in front, both figures instantly dashed into the crack and disappeared.
Boom!
In the Brahma Void Heavenly Court, void fragments exploded consecutively, bursting out two figures.
"We've arrived!"
Sun Wukong released his hand.
Emperor Yao looked around, confirming his location, and his hair instantly stood on end.
"How, how—how did you do that?"
His voice was filled with astonishment.
Incredibly, unbelievably so!
Sun Wukong had actually stepped directly into the Brahma Void Heavenly Court.
"This is the Spell I learned from the chessboard, only I in the entire Chaos can control it; it is full of dangers, yet it also contains limitless opportunities."
Sun Wukong answered, "The preparation I asked Ao Luan to make was for this."
He did not specify what was prepared, but Emperor Yao knew that even if he asked, Sun Wukong would not tell him.
Such a terrifying Spell must not be revealed too much.
"Does this spell allow you to go anywhere you want?"
Emperor Yao asked, restraining his shock.
"Of course not."
Sun Wukong laughed heartily, answering: "I can only go to places where the Heavenly Dao thrives; currently, except for the Heavenly Court, I cannot go anywhere else."
It seems that this spell is also related to the Wanling Immortal Path.
Thinking this, Emperor Yao suddenly thought of his two daughters.
"Can you take me to see my daughters?"
He asked.
"Of course."
The response from Sun Wukong brightened Emperor Yao's eyes.
"But not now…"
Sun Wukong then extinguished Emperor Yao's hopes, saying: "The spread of Heavenly Dao is slow there; it probably still needs a few months."
"I can wait."
Emperor Yao answered, having come through millions of years, he didn't mind a few more months.
"Brother!"
At that moment, Ao Luan flew over from a distance: "I was waiting for you at the gate, how come you appeared here?"
"First time using it, there was a bit of distance deviation."
Sun Wukong replied: "You did well."
"Brother, you arranged everything perfectly, I didn't need much effort."
Ao Luan said, "Buddha is looking for you, it's good that you've come."
"Buddha."
Sun Wukong was a bit surprised and followed Ao Luan to a Star Palace.
This was a Pure Land where the chanting of all beings emanated from the ground. Every corner, from heaven to earth, was enveloped in boundless Buddha Light.
At the center of the world, Buddha was seated atop Sumeru Mountain, chanting in Sanskrit, continuing until Sun Wukong and his party arrived, then he stopped.
"You may leave now!"
Buddha waved his hand, dismissing the surrounding disciples.
Sun Wukong sat down opposite him and saw Buddha's Buddha Light vast as the sea, soaring skyward.
"Buddha's Buddhist Law has grown ever more profound."
Sun Wukong said.
Buddha had been cultivating in the Heavenly Court, and his progress was likely no less than his.
"This is largely thanks to you."
Buddha smiled as he sized up Sun Wukong, feeling that Sun Wukong was equally unfathomable.
"I have comprehended much of the True Meaning of Chaos in the Heavenly Court and would like to discuss it with you."
Buddha said.
"Just right, I also seek your wisdom."
Sun Wukong replied.
Both of them sat on the ground and began discussing their insights into Chaos.
Talking about doctrine is a joyful affair, and would not be short even after a hundred years.
However, Sun Wukong had too many matters to attend to, so he and Buddha each used their Great Methods to complete the communication in one day.
Both possessed unparalleled wisdom, and though the time was short, the information received was sufficient.
A day later, Sun Wukong bid farewell to Buddha and returned to Ao Luan's palace.
"Before I leave, I will display my understanding of Totems to you."
Sun Wukong said to her, "These are all insights I've acquired, containing some aspects of the Tao of Chaos. How much you can learn depends entirely on your comprehension."
Ao Luan was astonished, "Why give them to me?"
"The Heavenly Court is not as safe as the Three Realms."
Sun Wukong said, "Buddha's Divine Skills are vast, yet you fall a bit short."
He worried about her safety in case of accidents.
Ao Luan simply nodded, "Please proceed, elder brother."
Sun Wukong gestured, and under his summoning, all the Spiritual Energy in the palace began to boil, turning into myriad Totems that flickered in mid-air.
These Totems grew in number, scattering across the sky like endless stars.
Ao Luan was dazzled for a moment.
"Don't look at them with your physical eyes; the physical eyes can't keep up."
Sun Wukong reminded.
Ao Luan realized this and immediately closed her eyes, opening her Heart Eye. In an instant, she felt as if she was amidst the celestial stars, with the universe fading around her, surrounded by countless fragments of the Tao transforming.
Each fragment was a profound principle, fluttering about, instantaneously born and then shattered in a blink.
"Why are there so many!"
Ao Luan was incredibly shocked inside. She couldn't believe her Heart Eye—how much did Sun Wukong actually know? That was beyond what she could handle.
"Settle your heart and calm your breath."
In that moment, Ao Luan heard Sun Wukong's voice again.
"Don't think too much, comprehend what you can. I can feel these Totems jumping; they like you."
Sun Wukong said.
Ao Luan calmed herself down and started to perceive carefully. She searched among the celestial stars and discovered a shimmering light.
This light was identical to the others, yet somehow, Ao Luan always felt its aura very familiar, as if it had always been in her heart.
"This must be it."
Ao Luan grabbed this light, and before she could react, 'boom'—her consciousness was expelled.
Regaining her senses, Ao Luan found Sun Wukong standing in front, with no Totems around.
"Elder brother."
Ao Luan said, her face full of shame, "I failed."
She hadn't learned anything.
"Not at all."
Sun Wukong looked surprised, "What you need is already in your hands."
Ao Luan looked down and saw she was holding a strange bead emitting a splendid light, and she didn't know what it was.
"That is a Tao Seed."
Sun Wukong sighed, "You really surprise people."
He had not expected that Ao Luan could obtain a Tao Seed from the Totems.
Even he did not possess such a thing.
