Rebirth in Journey to the West: Sun Wukong-Chapter 539: Delaying Time (First Update!)
```
"Twenty-Four Heavens!"
A hint of icy cold flashed in his eyes as Ran Deng Buddha directly summoned the immense power of the Twenty-Four Heavens. Twenty-four spherical worlds of the heavens emerged around him.
Sun Wukong watched the twenty-four heavenly spheres materialize around Ran Deng Buddha and his pupils abruptly constricted, knowing well that this power wielded at Western Heaven Spiritual Mountain was bound to be much stronger than it had been in the Heavenly Court!
This is going to be tough!
"Power of the Heavens, suppress!"
With a fierce shout from Ran Deng Buddha, the Demon-Subduing Pestle in his hand struck out towards Sun Wukong from the air.
The twenty-four heavenly spheres exerted a tremendous oppressive force, assailing Sun Wukong, causing the surrounding space to whistle fiercely and Sun Wukong felt his body instantly become several times heavier.
However, such a degree of oppressive force didn't faze Sun Wukong. In the Borderlands, the gravity was ten times that of the Three Realms, and at the heart of the World Tree, it was even twenty times the gravity of the Three Realms. Sun Wukong had adapted to such immense pressure, so the oppressive strength unleashed by the twenty-four heavenly spheres posed no threat to him.
The real threat lay in the destructive power of those twenty-four heavenly worlds!
"Heaven-Breaking Nine Rods!"
The Heaven-Breaking Three Sticks was a Heaven-Breaking Stick Technique that Sun Wukong only grasped after breaking through to the Half-Step Saint Realm. It was extremely consuming. Previously, his clones used it desperately in a fierce encounter with Tathagata Buddha, and that was a necessary action. Now was not the time for Sun Wukong to deplete all his strength, as he still needed to conserve some energy to break the last Stellar Aura Chains, it wasn't the moment to go all-out.
The colossal shadow of the pestle, infused with the power of the twenty-four heavenly worlds, clashed with the nine shadow rods of the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod, erupting in a series of thunderous roars. The terrifying waves of force spread out in all directions but were firmly blocked by starlight emanating from the Stellar Aura Chains near Amitabha Buddha.
"Although these Stellar Aura Chains have trapped Amitabha Buddha, they also protect Amitabha Buddha. Such a characteristic of control and protection is indeed peculiar and worth thorough research!"
After being tossed around by the immense force, Sun Wukong stabilized his stance and cast his gaze upon the Stellar Aura Chains that withstood the blast's aftermath. A flash of keen light sparkled in his eyes as if he had come upon a realization.
In the past, he had only absorbed Stellar Spiritual Qi to transform it into Chaos Primordial Force without noticing this particular property. Now that he had unexpectedly observed it, he found it extremely fascinating. The Stellar Spiritual Qi actually had such a miraculous characteristic. If he could comprehend it, there's no doubt he'd have one more ability capable of both attack and defense.
Once this matter is resolved, I must thoroughly study it!
As thoughts raced through his mind, Sun Wukong's steps didn't halt. With a fierce stomp in the void, he darted through the gap left by the force's shockwave, charging towards Ran Deng Buddha.
"First Mysterious!"
The Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod in his hand swiftly tapped on the left side of Ran Deng Buddha's lower back, and a point of light shot out from the rod, fiercely penetrating Ran Deng Buddha's protective aura shield.
Swiftly dodging the blow from Ran Deng Buddha's Demon-Subduing Pestle, Sun Wukong spun his Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod half a circle, tapping once again on another spot on the lower back.
"Second Mysterious!"
Ran Deng Buddha's heart clenched. Sun Wukong was about to unleash the strange Three Mysterious Explosion!
The Three Mysterious Explosion, the third technique of the Mysterious Heaven Nine Transformations, possessed extreme destructive power. It required planting three forces into the enemy's body according to the Three Profound Seeds positions, then activating a secret technique to detonate them, which had immense might. Protective Qi Energy could not defend against it, and Ran Deng Buddha had a personal and painful experience with it; he had suffered a significant loss from the Three Mysterious Explosion before!
```
"Three Mysterious!"
Sun Wukong rushed forth again, his Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod aiming for the third position. Ran Deng Buddha, not daring to let himself be hit, hastily retreated and flew rapidly into the distance. At the same time, he activated the Buddha Primordial Force within his body and the power of the Twenty-Four Heavens' Worlds to expel the two invasive forces that had entered his body as quickly as possible.
"Getting smarter, huh!"
The success of the Third Mysterious Seed had failed, but Sun Wukong was not annoyed. The destructive power of the Mysterious Heaven Nine Transformations' Three Mysterious Explosion was indeed astounding, but to activate it, he must first completely set the Three Profound Seeds, missing even one would not work, which took too much time and could only be used for deception.
Ran Deng Buddha had already been deceived by the Mysterious Heaven Nine Transformations' Three Mysterious Explosion once, and unless he was a fool, he would not fail to realize that Sun Wukong was trying to use it again. Evading was to be expected, and Sun Wukong indeed wanted the other to dodge!
"Dragon Cat, come out and help!"
He called into the imitation Qiankun Bag, but with no response, Sun Wukong simply lifted the Dragon Cat out directly. As expected, the creature was still asleep!
After shaking it awake in two or three tries, Sun Wukong pointed towards the distant Ran Deng Buddha and said, "Stop sleeping, there's serious business! Quick, help Old Sun block him and buy some time!"
Woken up from deep sleep, the Dragon Cat was extremely reluctant, but seeing the situation around him, it immediately discarded its dissatisfaction. Sun Wukong wasn't joking, the situation was indeed urgent!
"Boss, why do you always like to find trouble for yourself!"
Stomping his feet in frustration, the Dragon Cat still flew towards Ran Deng Buddha. Now, he was the only one who could delay Ran Deng Buddha.
Watching the Dragon Cat fly towards Ran Deng Buddha, Sun Wukong did not waste time. He blinked beside Amitabha and continued to activate his Void-Breaking Starry Eyes to crack the last Stellar Aura Chain.
"Dammit! Stop your actions!"
Ran Deng Buddha saw the golden light shining from Sun Wukong's eyes onto the Stellar Aura Chains and immediately realized something was wrong. Wukong's display of the Mysterious Heaven Nine Transformations' Three Mysterious Explosion was fake, and driving him back to gain time was the real intention!
He immediately activated the power of the Twenty-Four Heavens' Worlds and stepped forward, intending to interrupt Sun Wukong's actions, but saw the Dragon Cat "swoosh" in front of him, lifting up its chubby cat paws and making a little fist-shaking in front of him.
Cuteness Overload Divine Skill activated.

Ran Deng Buddha's head spun dizzy, and the power of the Twenty-Four Heavens' Worlds he had been gathering almost dissipated. However, having proved the Tao and become Slaying One Corpse Merit Saint, his resistance was much stronger than before he had attained saintliness. After a moment's stupefaction, he instantly regained his clarity.
"Damn beast, out of my way!"
With anger surging in his heart, Ran Deng Buddha swung the Demon-Subduing Pestle towards the Dragon Cat to strike it.
"Cuteness Overload Divine Skill!"
The Dragon Cat was startled; he and Sun Wukong were now both at the Half-Step Saint Realm, and if he were to be hit by the staff, even with his strong resilience, it would be quite troublesome. He quickly lifted his paw and activated the Cuteness Overload Divine Skill again.
Ran Deng Buddha's Demon-Subduing Pestle suddenly stopped!
