Great Demon Sun Wukong-Chapter 659 - 605: Entering the Treasure Pavilion
With Sun Wukong's voice, a figure slowly materialized behind Zhu Bajie. Knowing that it was his eldest martial brother who had arrived, Zhu Bajie wasn't surprised. He wiped his mouth and asked without turning, "Brother Monkey, are we going to go in and take some stuff?" By now, Zhu Bajie had unconsciously assumed ownership of the Treasure Pavilion, treating it as if it were his property. Though he had seen many treasures before, he still couldn't help drooling at the sight of them.
Sun Wukong chuckled, "Let's go, let's first check out what treasures are inside. If it's all stuff we don't fancy, that would be a disappointment." To be honest, there weren't many things left that could catch Sun Wukong's eye. After all, with the World Suppressing Stele and the Five-Colored Divine Stone in his possession, he was no longer envious of any treasure. His definition of 'worth a look' was entirely from the perspective of the White Dragon and his master. If even they couldn't use it, then it was truly garbage.
Zhu Bajie had already been itching to go. As soon as Sun Wukong finished speaking, Zhu Bajie charged forward. Sun Wukong didn't stop him, but with his right hand formed a Sword Finger and pointed at the Treasure Pavilion. A diamond-shaped chain shot out from his fingertip, swirling around the Treasure Pavilion and completely sealing off the surrounding space. At that moment, Zhu Bajie knocked down four guardians of the Treasure Pavilion with a single palm each. Despite their Dao Transformation Primary Grade cultivation, they were no different than infants in Zhu Bajie's presence.
Looking at the four monks who had fallen to the ground, Zhu Bajie chuckled contentedly. Then, summoning his Nine-Toothed Rake, he gave the doors of the Treasure Pavilion a vicious rake. Although the doors were made of extremely precious metal, they fell apart into countless pieces of scrap iron after three rakes in the presence of Zhu Bajie, at the Dao Transformation Primary Grade. In the past, Zhu Bajie might have consumed the scraps, as they were valuable metals containing decent energy, but now Zhu Bajie didn't even give them a second glance. Just as he was entering the broken door of the Treasure Pavilion, two flashes of light appeared, and Zhu Bajie was sent flying backward, but did not hit the ground as Sun Wukong caught him by the collar from behind.
"You fool, that was truly embarrassing, to be sent flying by two Peak of Unity Dao. It's a disgrace, but now I'm giving you a chance. Deal with everyone inside, but no killing allowed. You get first pick of three treasures from the Treasure Pavilion." As the saying goes, there's no waking early without benefit, and with the huge incentive of choosing three treasures first, Zhu Bajie could hardly contain himself. Twisting his large behind, he charged back in with his Nine-Toothed Rake held upside down, howling as he went.
Meanwhile, two men, monks who looked almost identical, appeared at the entrance of the Treasure Pavilion. Clearly, they were in charge of guarding it. They were about to throw out some tough talk to boost their morale, but Zhu Bajie didn't give them the chance. His figure disappeared in an instant as he charged towards them and reappeared behind them, causing the two monks to stagger as they felt a massive blow to their backs. Then their nightmare began. Zhu Bajie's Nine-Toothed Rake swung from left to right in a vicious sweep. Before the two men could react, they had been dragged to Zhu Bajie's right side and then pummeled to the ground, noses bleeding and limp.

"Heh, Big Brother, I did well, didn't I? That was just a fluke earlier," said Zhu Bajie, turning his head to flash Sun Wukong a smile. Sun Wukong's smile was even brighter. "Bajie, those two were just the first layer. There should be six more people inside, and their strength will only be stronger!" Zhu Bajie, thinking himself suave, strutted into the Treasure Pavilion. Sun Wukong then glanced in another direction with an amused look in his eyes and thought to himself: This Battle Buddha Sect is no simple matter. Just for this Treasure Pavilion, there are seven Peak of Unity Dao. Add Kuzhan and the Sect Master to the count, which means the Battle Buddha Sect has at least nine Peak of Unity Dao. In reality, apart from those who haven't shown up and whom he sensed, there were five more Peak of Unity Dao, totaling fourteen in the Battle Buddha Sect.
"Hehe, the most important thing is that there's actually a Dao Transformation Primary Grade among them. How could such strength possibly belong to a mere seventh or eighth-rank sect? When things are abnormal, there's bound to be demons afoot. Maybe, tonight, there will be some unexpected loot!" Having said that, Sun Wukong followed Zhu Bajie into the Treasure Pavilion. At this point, Zhu Bajie had already started fighting with two other Peak of Unity Dao disciples from the Battle Buddha Sect, but it wasn't really a fight since Zhu Bajie was continuously on the run. The Treasure Pavilion was divided into three levels, with the first level being the largest and storing all kinds of elixirs.
Zhu Bajie's strength was more than enough to handle these two, but instead of facing them, he was running frantically around the first level of the Treasure Pavilion. The reason for this became clear if you watched Zhu Bajie's actions. Even though he was sprinting wildly, his hands were anything but idle. Like a whirlwind, wherever he passed, the bottles and jars on the shelves were swept clean. Furthermore, Zhu Bajie was grabbing and eating the elixirs, consuming them as if they were jelly beans, much like Sun Wukong had once done in the Heavenly Palace when he sneakily ate the Supreme Elder Lord's Immortal Pills.
The two followers soon realized something was off. In just a few breaths, nearly a fifth of the elixirs on the entire first floor had vanished—that was over a thousand pills of various grades and functions! Could this man be insane, seeking death? But even if this man sought death, it would have to be by their hands. Otherwise, with so many elixirs lost, they wouldn't be able to explain themselves. However, this elixir-thief was incredibly fast; despite their full effort, they couldn't catch him.
Just then, the fleeing elixir-thief abruptly stopped, and a look of ecstatic joy appeared on the faces of the two men. The one who caught the elixir-thief turned out to be Elder Kuzhan. Although they were all at the Peak of Unity Dao, combat power varied even within the same realm, and at least together they couldn't defeat Kuzhan. "Bajie, when will you get rid of your gluttonous habits? If you eat all the elixirs, what will Master and White Dragon do? Do you think I brought you here to snack?"
Afterwards, Sun Wukong turned towards the two men and said with a radiant smile, "This elixir-thief is actually the Sect Master's father. He's just become a bit crazy due to an injury, no harm done, no harm done!" With a wave of his hand, Sun Wukong filled the eyes of the two men with a bewildered look.
"Alright, silly, you head to the second floor; there are two more there. I'll take care of the elixirs here. Remember, don't eat everything!" (To be continued.
