Rebirth in Journey to the West: Sun Wukong-Chapter 916 - 917: If You Can Be Invincible at the Same Rank, You Can Soar Upwards (Third Update!)

"Finally completed!"

Opening his eyes, Sun Wukong let out a long breath, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and felt an overwhelming sense of exhaustion and weakness.

After three whole months of sleepless and relentless exertion of Chaos Primordial Force and Chaos Fire, the amount of energy and mental effort consumed was unimaginable to outsiders. If Sun Wukong hadn’t broken through to the Domain Marshal Realm, he likely couldn’t have persisted. Fortunately, it was finally successful!

The deadly poison within Toxic General Yuan Du’s body has been completely removed. After refinement, it condensed into a Poison Pill within his Dantian. As long as Toxic General Yuan Du doesn’t activate it, the Poison Primordial Force will not manifest.

In other words, while Toxic General Yuan Du remains a Toxic General, his body no longer carries any trace of poison. Whenever he needs Poison Primordial Force, Yuan Du can extract it from the Poison Pill within.

Not only will his body no longer suffer from poisonous torment, Yuan Du’s strength can further increase. It’s fair to say that Sun Wukong has effectively opened a new world for Toxic General Yuan Du, granting him rebirth!

"Thank you!"

Toxic General Yuan Du respectfully kneeled before Sun Wukong and kowtowed three times. Sun Wukong had bestowed upon him a grace of rebirth, these three kowtows were of heartfelt willingness, completely different from the thousand kowtows before.

"Yuan Du, the poison within your body has been cleared, condensed into a Poison Pill in your Dantian. Your cultivation might decline, but from now on, there will be no hidden dangers in your cultivation! The reduced cultivation should recover within three months."

After receiving the three bows from Toxic General Yuan Du, Sun Wukong extended a hand to assist Yuan Du from the ground. Though his face was still quite pale, a hint of color was returning. The self-recovery ability of the Chaos Battle Body is extremely strong, as long as he doesn’t continue exhausting it, Sun Wukong can recover quickly.

While Chaos Primordial Force can be quickly restored, Chaos Fire isn’t as easy to recover. Sun Wukong will have to undergo closed cultivation for a while to gradually recover.

"Good lad, you really did it!"

Divine General Yuan Long pushed the door open and entered. After carefully examining Toxic General Yuan Du for a while, his eyes glowed as he looked at Sun Wukong. Yuan Du’s toxic body issues appeared completely eradicated, although his cultivation dropped to the first tier of Domain King. Without the constraints of a toxic body, his future cultivation improvements would be faster than before, quickly compensating for the lost cultivation.

All of this was thanks to Sun Wukong!

Unexpectedly, Sun Wukong, with just the Domain Marshal Realm cultivation, managed to remove the toxic body issues for a Domain King tier four powerhouse — truly astonishing!

"Brother Yuan, this old Sun consumed a lot, needs to rest for a while, you see..."

Sun Wukong had no intention of engaging with Divine General Yuan Long. All he wanted now was to lie down and sleep. The past three plus months of nonstop, focused effort to remove the poison from Yuan Du’s body had significantly drained his Primordial Spirit. Sun Wukong felt his eyelids growing heavy, barely able to stay awake.

"Alright, alright, then you rest well Wukong, I’ll visit you some other day!"

Divine General Yuan Long understood immediately and agreed at once, signaling to Toxic General Yuan Du with his eyes before leaving with a smile.

"Hoo~!"

As soon as the two stepped out, Sun Wukong fell to the ground and promptly fell into a deep sleep.

"Yuan Du thanks Divine General for the great favor!"

Outside Sun Wukong’s abode, Toxic General Yuan Du suddenly stopped, kneeled respectfully on one knee, and saluted Divine General Yuan Long.

"It was Sun Wukong who helped you, why thank me?"

"Divine General, it was you who brought Sun Wukong back to Battle God Mountain. If not for this, I wouldn’t have had the chance to meet him, nor the opportunity to relieve the poison body issues! Moreover, earlier when Yuan Fen and Yuan Tong came to cause trouble, it was you who drove them away. I owe you this bow without reservations!"

During the turmoil caused by Wrath General Yuan Fen and Fire General Yuan Tong, Sun Wukong was too focused to be distracted. However, Toxic General Yuan Du was different; with most of the poison in his body already refined, he didn’t need to devote all his attention to resisting the pain. Naturally, he knew about Divine General Yuan Long driving Yuan Fen and Yuan Tong away.

"This General merely did what was within my duty, no need to dwell too much on it."

Divine General Yuan Long helped Yuan Du up, patting his shoulder, "Just remember the grace Sun Wukong has shown you today. He is different from this General, with no obligation to expend his essence for you!"

"Yuan Du understands!"

Toxic General Yuan Du nodded. He was acutely aware of the troubles posed by his toxic body issues. Although Sun Wukong was capable of removing and refining the poison, it wasn’t without difficulty; otherwise, it wouldn’t have consumed over three months. He has remembered this favor well—if given the chance to repay it, he would hesitate not!

"Alright, quickly return to your Cave Dwelling for cultivation, restore the diminished cultivation. You have equally the opportunity to contend for the Heavenly Que Realm entry qualification in two and a half years — don’t waste this opportunity!"

The entry qualification for Heavenly Que Realm is limited. Besides the rule that each person can only participate in the contest once in their lifetime, cultivation level is also a restriction. The highest allowed is Domain King Realm; beyond that is not possible. Like Divine General Yuan Long, wanting to participate in the contest would require finding a way to lower his cultivation to Domain King Realm.

"Yes, Divine General, I shall take my leave!"

With a firm nod, Toxic General Yuan Du, previously resigned, now full of determination, headed to pursue the qualification for entry into the Heavenly Que Realm. Previously constrained by the toxic body and seeing no future, even gaining the qualification seemed pointless.

Moreover, Wrath General Yuan Fen, Fire General Yuan Tong, and Cold General Yuan Bing were not weaker than him, leaving him with little assurance of victory!

But now things were different; the shackles within him were completely removed, clearing a smooth path forward. Of course, he would strive for the Heavenly Que Realm entry qualification!

Watching Yuan Du leave with renewed confidence, Divine General Yuan Long felt a surge of passion he hadn’t experienced in a long time. Entering the Heavenly Que Realm was a bright path to becoming a peak powerhouse. Although he was already in the Domain Emperor Realm, temporarily sealing some cultivation to pursue the Heavenly Que Realm was worthwhile.

To be invincible at the same level, ascending could be limitless!

With a slight smile, Divine General Yuan Long leapt into the air, flying towards the Battle God Palace.

...

In the Heavenly Demon City, within the Heavenly Demon Mansion.

"Second Uncle, you actually let that Sun Wukong escape?"

The Heavenly Prince looked at Right Envoy Kun Du, his expression was dreary.
