Chapter 1283: Chapter 428: Supreme Realm
The date of Sun Wukong’s wedding was getting closer and closer.
And he was increasingly unable to sit still, going out to visit old friends, even personally delivering invitation cards.
This left many people speechless; why would Sun Wukong personally run such errands?
Lu Dongbin grabbed him, preventing Sun Wukong from personally running errands. With his current status, he really shouldn’t be doing this; he should let his subordinates handle it.
Sun Wukong scratched his head and awkwardly said, “I, Old Sun, can’t sit still. I’m feeling anxious and somewhat fearful? It’s hilarious that I, Old Sun, am actually fearful—utterly inexplicable.”
Lu Dongbin stared at Sun Wukong curiously; this was pre-wedding anxiety.
No one expected that such a supreme figure would also go through such an ordeal.
Seeing Lu Dongbin stifling a laugh, Sun Wukong wanted very much to pull out his Jingu Bang and give him a good smack.
Judging by the fellow’s smile, it’s clear he didn’t have anything good in mind.
“Ahem, Great Saint, this is pre-wedding anxiety, something many mortal men or women would have, but Old Lu didn’t expect you to also have such anxiety before marriage. Is this still the Great Sage Equalling Heaven who once caused Havoc in Heaven?”
Lu Dongbin couldn’t help but laugh, finding it very amusing.
However, when he saw Sun Wukong’s murderous gaze, he decisively shut his mouth.
“Ahem, if Great Saint finds it hard to calm down, you could go for closed-door cultivation for a few days; after all, there are a few days left. If Great Saint can overcome this mental barrier, you might even improve your cultivation,”
Lu Dongbin suggested.
Originally, he wanted to take Sun Wukong to relax a bit, but a couple of days ago, Nu Ba and Dragon Girl found him and made some threats, making Lu Dongbin completely abandon the idea of taking Sun Wukong to unwind.
The main reason was Nu Ba and Dragon Girl said that if Lu Dongbin dared lead Sun Wukong astray, she would find a wife for Lu Dongbin, and it would be a Wild God from outside the realm.
Lu Dongbin would never agree to this. A Wild God from outside the realm would be utterly humiliating to his status.
If Ancestor Lu were willing, wouldn’t female Immortals from all over the world scramble for him?
Though it wouldn’t be anyone as high-status as Nu Ba, typical Celestial Immortals, Heavenly Venerates, even Great Heavenly Venerates wouldn’t look down on him.
If Lu Dongbin were willing, what woman couldn’t he find? Would he need to lower himself to find a Wild God from outside?
Sun Wukong thought about it; this was indeed a good suggestion.
He patted Lu Dongbin’s shoulder and sighed, “I, Old Sun, thought you were going to take me out into the mortal world to relax, and I was all ready to refuse. I didn’t expect you to be so reliable at times.”
Lu Dongbin was dumbfounded; the Great Saint understood him too well.
He had actually wanted Sun Wukong to relax in the mortal world, naturally, if not for Nu Ba’s warning.
Sun Wukong went into closed-door cultivation.
He was initially somewhat unsettled, but when a mysterious Dao Rhyme appeared, Sun Wukong’s heart immediately calmed.
He fell into the Taoist Realm and began to comprehend the Dao.
A mysterious light appeared around Sun Wukong, containing the Law of Time.
The flow of time in Sun Wukong’s location suddenly differed from the outside world.
If a strong individual sensed all this, they would certainly discover that the flow of time was abnormal where Sun Wukong was. A normal day passed while a hundred years went by where he was.
Sun Wukong was oblivious.
He was comprehending the Dao Rhyme left by Goddess Nuwa, a reflection of her understanding of the Dao of Cultivation.
At this moment, these insights were even clearer than before.
Sun Wukong gradually developed a realization that he was comprehending the Dao of Creation; Nuwa was helping him.
Sun Wukong thanked her in his heart and devoted himself to his understanding.
This kind of unreserved teaching, even among master and disciple, is rare.
The main reason is Nuwa’s Primordial Spirit had once controlled Sun Wukong’s body, and now Sun Wukong allowed a wisp of Nuwa’s Primordial Spirit incarnation to dwell within him. This unconditional trust in Goddess Nuwa is why she’s helping him without reservation.
Sun Wukong’s Taoist Realm was growing, but he was unaware, only exploring the Dao of Creation.
Dao begets one,
One begets two,
Two begets three,
Three begets all things.
This is Heaven and Earth, and also Creation.
Sun Wukong’s heart developed an understanding.
Is this the essence of the Dao of Creation? All-encompassing, not singular, but inclusive of everything.
Creation, is the Dao,
But, Creation, is not the Dao.
The word Dao is mysterious and profound.
The words Creation are akin to Dao; they have dependency and interpretation, mysterious yet understandable.
Unknowingly, Sun Wukong’s cultivation level broke through.
Supreme Realm, completed effortlessly.
Nuwa’s Primordial Spirit chuckled lightly and then fell silent.
Sun Wukong was immersed in the Dao of Creation, consolidating his foundation, making his Dao Foundation more solid and resilient as he prepared to enter the Creation Realm.
Having reached the Supreme Realm, he felt no joy or sadness; it was a natural feeling.
After what seemed like eons, Sun Wukong felt he had experienced hundreds of years.
During these hundreds of years, he had forgotten everything and was about to merge into the Dao.
However, he eventually woke up.
Ultimately, living beings are living beings; they can interpret the Dao but cannot truly merge with it.
The so-called merging with the Dao is just a fool’s dream.
Heaven and earth are indifferent and unfeeling; even if there is an overarching will, it is impartial and profound.
The will of living beings cannot merge into the vast heavens and earth, even if the person is a Creation Realm powerhouse.
Sun Wukong gathered his Heart-Mind and awoke from the Taoist Realm.
Feeling the strong energy coursing through his body, he smiled.
Supreme Realm has been achieved.
As Sun Wukong awoke, the power of time around him dissipated.
Sun Wukong suddenly frowned; he realized that hundreds of years had passed. But he was supposed to have a wedding soon, only a few days away.
With hundreds of years having passed, the wedding date had long gone by.
How could he face the two, and what had happened in those hundreds of years?
Sun Wukong was a bit annoyed; he lacked self-control and ended up in meditation for hundreds of years.
All because of Lu Dongbin’s lousy idea, which led him to do such a foolish thing.
Sun Wukong planned to go outside and give Lu Dongbin a good lesson.
He extended his Divine Thought and revealed a surprised expression.
“No, only a few days have passed. What’s the matter? Did I judge incorrectly?”
Sun Wukong was astonished; he had truly felt hundreds of years had passed.
Sun Wukong seriously calculated, sensing the residual Time Law around him.
Sun Wukong suddenly appeared enlightened.
“Thank you, Goddess Nuwa, for helping me.”
Sun Wukong expressed his gratitude, fully aware this was the handiwork of Goddess Nuwa.
The Dao of Creation encompasses everything, including the Realm of Time, not surprising.
Sun Wukong was thoroughly relieved. He calculated, realizing the wedding was tomorrow, and he still had time.
At this moment, the sound of footsteps echoed; someone was coming to find him.
Sun Wukong tidied his clothes, stood up, and went to open the door.
