“Great Saint, I am still a monk after all; isn’t this inappropriate?”

Jiang Liu’er also hesitated. While he was willing to detoxify and save someone, Sun Wukong had said that the only way to save Fairy Chang’er was to merge spiritually and physically with her through dual cultivation, which put him in a difficult position. Indeed, he was still a monk and a virgin, having never partaken in such acts, naturally feeling some shame.
“What is inappropriate? When the time comes, it will be Hou Yi’s soul controlling your body to save her, and after she’s saved, your body will still be yours. Hou Yi’s soul will merely be nurtured within you. After the quest for the scriptures is over, you can use the power of merit to condense a new physical body for him, and naturally, he will separate from you. It’s not a loss for you but quite beneficial! Fairy Chang’er’s Mysterious Yin Primordial can directly perfect your Merit Golden Body! Where else would you find such an opportunity?”
Sun Wukong’s words tempted Jiang Liu’er. To save Fairy Chang’er and resurrect the Great Witch Hou Yi was naturally a deed of immeasurable merit. Moreover, if it was as Sun Wukong said, with Hou Yi’s soul controlling his body during the rescue, it wouldn’t be so embarrassing.
Of course, what mattered most was Sun Wukong’s claim that the Mysterious Yin Primordial could instantly perfect his Merit Golden Body, which greatly tempted Jiang Liu’er.
Throughout this journey westward, they had faced so many hardships and perils. If not for cultivating the Immeasurable Merit Determination and gaining some self-defense capabilities, Jiang Liu’er might already have lost his life. Considering that this quest to the west in his lifetime was far more dangerous than Sun Wukong’s previous one, experiencing the safety cultivation strength brought made Jiang Liu’er naturally hope to reach higher levels.
He was now at the peak of Heavenly Immortal cultivation. If he could perfect his Merit Golden Body, he might at least reach the realm of Taiyi Golden Immortal, akin to a pie falling from the sky.
“Well then, I agree, but won’t the Buddhist Sect notice if I leave so rashly, Great Saint?”
After much deliberation, Jiang Liu’er finally nodded and agreed, yet he was still concerned. It was the time for the Journey to the West to seek scriptures. If he just left, would Tathagata Buddha and others notice? If it affected the great task of seeking scriptures, it wouldn’t be worth it!
“How could I, Old Sun, leave any opportunity for the Buddhist Sect?”
Sun Wukong proudly smiled. He had already considered what Jiang Liu’er was worried about and promptly activated his Cloning Divine Powers. A clone emerged from his body, instantly transforming into Jiang Liu’er’s appearance.
The clone, indistinguishable from Sun Wukong’s main body in strength, contained Chaos Primordial Force that could mimic any energy. Simulating the Merit Force to match Jiang Liu’er’s aura was not difficult for the clone.
“Now, who could tell you’ve been away?”
Sun Wukong pointed at the clone that now looked like Jiang Liu’er and chuckled mischievously.
“Great Saint, Yuan Hong is impressed,”
Yuan Hong’s eyes lit up. He hadn’t realized that Cloning Divine Powers and the Way of Transformation could be used in such a manner. It greatly inspired him. He was only a step away from understanding Cloning Divine Powers, and his Way of Transformation was already perfected. In other words, what Sun Wukong could do now, he should also be able to do in the future, though perhaps not as flawlessly.
The clone transformed indistinguishably resembled Jiang Liu’er in appearance, voice, and even aura force. Furthermore, by deliberately mimicking Jiang Liu’er’s behavior and tone, even Jiang Liu’er himself couldn’t tell the differences from his own self, and amidst constant admiring remarks, he was completely reassured.
Sun Wukong no longer delayed. After releasing the barrier, he took Jiang Liu’er and soared into the sky, heading towards the East Victorious Divine Continent.
A day later, the Polar Realm of Heaven.
After the destruction of the Ancient Primeval, Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor reopened heaven and earth with supreme magical power, dividing the Three Realms into four continents. However, there are some regions that do not fall within these four continents, and the Polar Realm of Heaven is one such place.
The Polar Realm of Heaven was, in ancient times, the location of Mount Buzhou, which was the backbone of both Heaven Realm and Human Realm. Due to a great battle between the Fire God Zhu Rong and the Water God Gonggong, Gonggong, in a fit of rage, struck Mount Buzhou, causing the Heavenly Pillar to collapse. Heavenly fire fell from the Heavenly Cave along with meteorites, striking the earth and completely altering the environment of the Polar Realm of Heaven. Although later, Goddess Nuwa mended the sky by refining stone, this region could not be integrated into the newly formed Three Realms, and thus it lay idle on the edge of the East Victorious Divine Continent.
Indeed, this was not Sun Wukong’s first visit to the Polar Realm of Heaven, but had it not been for the guidance of the Puti Patriarch, he would never have known that this was actually the entrance to the cemetery of gods and demons!
In the Ancient battle between the Witch-Demon, numerous elites from the Witch Race and the Demon Clan perished. At that time, Houtu had not yet incarnated the Six Paths of Reincarnation. The souls of these dead powerful beings could not reincarnate and drifted within the cemetery of gods and demons, gradually altering the Heavenly Dao Laws of the place, thus isolating it into a very unique small world. Those who knew of it called it the cemetery of gods and demons.
“Great Saint, where exactly is the entrance to this cemetery of gods and demons? This Polar Realm of Heaven is desolate, and I can’t tell where the entrance is at all!”
Jiang Liu’er, now holding the peak cultivation of a Heavenly Immortal, was not lacking in perception, but no matter how he looked or sensed, he could only feel the scattered spiritual energy of nature and the desolation around him; he simply couldn’t find the entrance to the cemetery of gods and demons.
“Don’t rush; your old Sun is still searching, right? Be patient!”
As Sun Wukong spoke, his gaze continued to sweep across the entire Polar Realm of Heaven bit by bit, his eyes gleaming with golden light. His Void-Breaking Starry Eyes had already been activated. Although the entrance to the cemetery of gods and demons was within the Polar Realm of Heaven, the Polar Realm of Heaven was vast, and the entrance was just a small one. Even the Puti Patriarch was unclear about its exact location, so Sun Wukong had to rely on himself to find it.
Luckily, he had the Void-Breaking Divine Eye. After activating the Void-Breaking Starry Eyes, he could see hidden spatial nodes. Though it was slow, with a meticulous search inch by inch, he would eventually find it given time.
Half a day passed, and Sun Wukong had meticulously scanned more than half of the entire Polar Realm of Heaven. He was about to finish his scan, yet he still had not found the entrance to the cemetery of gods and demons. He couldn’t help but feel a bit strange. Could it be that the information from the Puti Patriarch was wrong and the entrance wasn’t here?
That should not be the case. The Puti Patriarch would not joke about such a matter. Since he said the entrance to the cemetery of gods and demons was in the Polar Realm of Heaven, it must be here.
Or, could it be a matter of timing?
Sun Wukong looked up at the sky above, bright with light, for it was still daytime. Perhaps when the brightness lessened a bit, it would be night.
Or, could it be that the entrance only appears at night?
