Rebirth in Journey to the West: Sun Wukong-Chapter 488 - : How Dare You Hit My Disciple (13th Update!)
Chapter 488: Chapter 488: How Dare You Hit My Disciple (13th Update!)
Ran Deng, the Ancient Buddha, cast a slanted look at the Donghua Emperor far off and shouted loudly. He intended to have the Donghua Emperor join him in besieging Sun Wukong.
“Pah! Ran Deng, you shameless bald donkey! You’ve already proven the Tao and become a saint, yet you dare not face my brother Wukong alone. To think you even need the Donghua Emperor’s help—how utterly disgraceful!”
Luo Bai, standing afar, began hopping and cursing furiously. He had clashed with the Ran Deng Ancient Buddha before and was well aware of his nature. Among the experts, he was the most shameless, always bullying the weak and fearing the strong. At the first sign of danger, he would flee. That had been his way during the Divine Enthronement battle, and now, even after achieving saint status, he continued in the same manner.
To Luo Bai, Ran Deng’s attainment of saint status was nothing less than a colossal irony!
“You little beast, seeking death!”
Furious, Ran Deng, the Ancient Buddha, his eyes shining coldly, turned toward Luo Bai. With a fierce wave of his hand, a Buddha’s Palm Seal flew from his palm, suddenly enlarging in the air and striking towards Luo Bai from afar.
“Green Lotus Sword Chant!”
Luo Bai hadn’t expected Ran Deng to strike as soon as he spoke, and filled with resentment, he arched his brows and swung the Purple Lightning Blue Glint Sword at the Buddha’s Palm Seal. A huge green lotus suddenly appeared in the air, and the Buddha’s Palm Seal struck it violently.
“Puh!”
The green lotus persisted for only a couple of breaths before it cracked open suddenly. The Buddha’s Palm Seal cast by Ran Deng dimmed considerably but continued moving toward Luo Bai. Luo Bai’s face turned pale, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, his energy instantly wilting.
“Crimson Flaming Dragon Rise Strike!”
“Hundred Eight Royal Slash, Immortal-slaying Blade!”

Observing this, Nezha the Third Prince and Erlang God Yang Jian shouted loudly, waving the Crimson Flame Dragon Spear and the Purple Lightning Thunder Halberd, respectively, blocking it. They used their ultimate moves and fiercely bombarded the Buddha’s Palm Seal. Through their combined effort, they finally dispersed the Buddha’s Palm Seal, but the immense force propelled them back through the air. Both of them felt a surge of qi and blood and nearly spit out blood like Luo Bai, their eyes filled with utmost shock.
“How powerful! Is this the true strength of a Heavenly Dao Saint?”
Luo Bai and the others were well aware of Ran Deng’s capabilities. Under their full force, they were perhaps slightly weaker than him, but not by much, and they could handle a hundred odd moves without a hitch. But now that Ran Deng had broken through to the level of a Heavenly Dao Saint, his strength had increased many folds. Together, they had just managed to withstand a casual palm strike from him. Wasn’t that gap a bit too vast?
“To think Wukong has always been fighting such opponents! That’s absolutely monstrous!”
Amidst their shock, Luo Bai and the others gained an even deeper understanding of Sun Wukong’s monstrous combat abilities. Ran Deng had just broken through to the realm of a Heavenly Dao Saint and was far less powerful than Tathagata Buddha. Yet, Sun Wukong had been able to fight Tathagata Buddha for so long, calling his strength monstrous and grotesque was an understatement!
“Did they block it?”
Ran Deng frowned. Though he had cast the palm casually, it contained the power of a Heavenly Dao Saint’s realm. Ordinary quasi-saints shouldn’t have been able to withstand it. Yet, Luo Bai and the others had managed it—only Luo Bai spat blood, but Nezha and Erlang God Yang Jian appeared to be largely unharmed. Although their combat abilities didn’t equal Sun Wukong’s, they were far beyond the average quasi-saint, belonging to a monstrous caliber!
People like that, if they are enemies, must be nipped in the bud early on, and must never be allowed to grow and become another Sun Wukong!
With a murderous intent stirring in his heart, Ran Deng Buddha threw the Demon-Subduing Pestle into the air to consecrate it. Originally, the grade of this pestle was only a low-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, but influenced by his attainment of Saint, it had leaped two levels and had now reached the level of a superior-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. Under the infusion of his power, if it struck the body, even someone at the level of the Heavenly Dao Saint would be staggered, not to mention anyone below the level of Sun Wukong, an aberration—none would be spared!
“Now!”
With a light shout, endless Buddha’s Light radiated from the Demon-Subduing Pestle. The next moment, as if tearing through space, it instantly appeared in front of Luo Bai and the two others, split into three, and fiercely smashed towards their foreheads. If it truly hit, even the physical strength of Erlang God Yang Jian would not be able to withstand it, and it would likely burst their brains!
“Terrible!”
Luo Bai and the others raised their weapons to block, but the Demon-Subduing Pestle was too fast. Between the sparks and flints, it had already reached them, and they were unable to defend against it. Just as it was about to smash into their skulls and claim their lives, suddenly, a sword light flashed out, splitting into three and blocking the Demon-Subduing Pestle, sending it flying fiercely. The next moment, the figure of the Leader of Tongtian appeared in front of Luo Bai and the others.
“Ran Deng, you dare to attack my disciples, are you tired of living?”
The cold, murderous voice of the Leader of Tongtian rang out, causing Ran Deng Buddha’s heart to skip a beat. He suddenly turned his head to look at the battlefield between the Primordial Heavenly Venerable and the Leader of Tongtian—those two were still fiercely fighting. Then who was this Leader of Tongtian in front of him?
Could it be, a clone?
“Cloning divine powers, huh? Dammit!”
Ran Deng Buddha realized what was happening, a flash of horror crossing his mind. This clone of the Leader of Tongtian was immensely powerful, seemingly no weaker than his true self, much like Sun Wukong’s cloning divine powers. It seemed the Leader of Tongtian also possessed these divine skills, which effectively meant a doubling, or more, of his combat power out of thin air!
“Leader of Tongtian, this is a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!”
Ran Deng Buddha cringed, his face awkwardly forming into an apologetic smile. He did not want to be at odds with this madman, the Leader of Tongtian, who had once challenged four Great Saints single-handedly. Although he ultimately failed, his ferocious tenacity and the terrifying combat power he displayed had become widely known in the Three Realms. Even if it was just a clone, Ran Deng Buddha, who had just broken through to the level of Heavenly Dao Saint, was not an opponent he could handle.
“Pfft!”
A laugh, unable to be restrained, came through, making Ran Deng Buddha turn his head, his face darkening even more as if it were the bottom of a pot. The one who emitted the laughter was Sun Wukong.
“Ran Deng, you are still the same as before, such a coward! If you’re scared, you better roll back to the Spiritual Mountain and stop embarrassing yourself here!”
As soon as Sun Wukong opened his mouth, it was deadly irritating, making Ran Deng Buddha nearly explode with rage. Remembering the previous losses under Sun Wukong’s hands, his anger and murderous intent grew even more intense, and he bellowed as he charged towards Sun Wukong again, “Demon Monkey, I will slaughter you today!”
“Ancestral Buddha, Donghua Emperor, let’s join forces. If we don’t eliminate this demon monkey today, we’ll never have another chance!”
