Rebirth in Journey to the West: Sun Wukong-Chapter 932 - 933 Ghost Vine (First Update!)

"I don’t know."

Demon General Yuan Mo shook his head, watching Sun Wukong’s receding figure, his eyes narrowing slightly, "It’s the first time I’ve seen someone like this. I can’t see through his fate!"

The Soul-breaking Curse was always known to doom its victim, and it was unheard of for anyone to weaken the curse’s power during its casting. Yet this unusual occurrence happened to Sun Wukong. Demon General Yuan Mo dared not predict what Sun Wukong’s future would be.

"Forget it, stop worrying about that kid and focus on yourself. Yuan Long, two years from now in the Eastern Continent competition, only those with a Cultivation Realm of Domain King and below can participate. Have you found a way to suppress your cultivation yet?"

"Of course, just separate a portion of cultivation and seal it away. I’ve already prepared, how about you?"

"Same here! Just to be clear, even though we’re friends, I won’t hold back when the time comes!"

"As if you could win against me even if you didn’t hold back! There’s no question we’ll make it to the finals. Prepare for the official Eastern Continent competition. It won’t just be us from the Battle God Ape Clan; all the strong contenders from the Eastern Continent will be there!"

Divine General Yuan Long and Demon General Yuan Mo exchanged a smile, abruptly halting their conversation. They turned and soared away, leaving only a distant instruction: "Clean up the area around the Battle God Platform!"

When Cold General Yuan Bing awoke, it was ten days later. Hearing about the series of events that transpired during her unconsciousness, a look of shock appeared in her phoenix eyes.

"That Sun Wukong, does he really not fear the Nine Nether’s resentment?"

"How did Sun Wukong manage to withstand most of the Soul-breaking Curse, which is so malevolent?"

"Was it him who healed me?"

A barrage of questions, some answered affirmatively, but others had no answers, because besides Sun Wukong, not even Divine General Yuan Long or Demon General Yuan Mo knew.

However, Sun Wukong couldn’t personally clarify things for Cold General Yuan Bing. Seven days earlier, he had already entered BattleGod Peak for trials, and even Divine General Yuan Long and Demon General Yuan Mo had each gone into seclusion. They needed to quickly adapt to the sealed Domain King Realm cultivation within two years and harness its ultimate power.

"Sun Wukong..."

A complex look flashed in Cold General Yuan Bing’s eyes, and finally, a soft murmur expelled everyone from her chamber, "From today on, I will seclude myself for training; no one is allowed to disturb me!"

Sun Wukong, in two years at the Heavenly Que Realm, I will definitely go there. By then, I must thoroughly clarify the doubts in my heart with you!

Within BattleGod Peak.

"Achoo!"

Just after defeating a beast, Sun Wukong rubbed his nose, "Who’s talking about old Sun behind my back?"

After seven days in BattleGod Peak, Sun Wukong found this truly a great place for life-and-death trials!

The BattleGod Peak of the Battle God Ape Clan is quite similar to the Barbarian God Forbidden Land of East Barbarian City, except that the creatures in BattleGod Peak are not Barbarian Beasts but various magical beasts.

These magical beasts are different from those in the Tiandou Great Forest, having no capability to shape-shift into human form, constantly maintaining their original form. As they level up their cultivation strength, they only further refine their original body to be stronger, sometimes growing larger, sometimes smaller, or developing thick scale armor, or undergoing other changes, always evolving to be more advantageous for survival.

Yet, no beast shape-shifts into a humanoid form!

In other words, the direction of these magical beasts’ strength in BattleGod Peak evolves more towards beast form rather than demonic form!

Sun Wukong is currently at the Domain Marshal cultivation. Although the magical beasts in BattleGod Peak don’t have high spiritual wisdom, they still understand the principles of seeking advantages, avoiding harm, bullying the weak, and fearing the strong. Not one beast below the Domain Marshal Realm dared to provoke Sun Wukong!

As for beasts at and above the Domain Marshal Cultivation, trouble seekers are plenty. BattleGod Peak abides by the natural laws of survival of the fittest, where the strong devour the weak to become stronger, and the fate of the weak is but a single word: death.

Sun Wukong did not release his full aura. Here for trials, the best method is constant battle; naturally, he should attract more magical beasts to attack for more challenges!

Sun Wukong maintained his normal state, and all magical beasts that came were at or above the Domain Marshal Realm. They attacked in the sky, underground, and in the streams, using every possible approach. Over seven days, Sun Wukong widened his horizons.

If this battling continues, Sun Wukong’s cultivation strength will undoubtedly see a substantial increase!

Two years later, before entering the Heavenly Que Realm, he has the confidence to rise to the Domain King Realm!

"Whoosh, whoosh!"

Spiky vines shot up from the ground, instantly wrapping around Sun Wukong’s body and arms, tightening abruptly.

"This Ghost Vine again!"

Sun Wukong frowned. It wasn’t his first encounter with such vine attacks. It’s the third time since he entered BattleGod Peak!

This type of vine is insidiously clingy, with extremely tough vines and a dense aura of ghostly death, evidently having consumed many corpses and Yin Souls. It’s incredibly annoying and wholly ignorant of fear, always launching attacks from underground when one is off guard.

Sun Wukong had previously driven this Ghost Vine away twice using Chaos Fire, but it seems to have returned!

"Damn thing, old Sun will find out where your real body is hiding!"

Sun Wukong gritted his teeth. This time he refrained from using even a bit of Chaos Fire, spreading Chaos Primordial Force all over his body to form a Protective Shield to fend off the Ghost Vine’s thorny attacks, preventing it from siphoning his energy. It could only ensnare him and drag him underground.

Sun Wukong didn’t resist this time, allowing the ancient vine to drag him underground. Being harassed by this Ghost Vine incessantly was truly annoying, especially if it appeared during battles with other magical beasts, posing a significant hazard.

The best way to deal with such a hazard is to uproot it entirely!

Dragged along through the earth, traveling deeper underground for a good ten miles or so, the speed of the dragging vine finally slowed, and a bright scene unfolded. Sun Wukong arrived in a vast underground chamber.

This underground chamber spans probably more than ten miles, and though not too dark, it felt incredibly eerie due to its illumination by gloomy green lights emanating from each bulging protuberance on the vines.

In the whole gigantic underground chamber, apart from the intertwined enormous vines and the various sized nodules on them, there weren’t any other living creatures!
