Buzz!
As a towering giant stepped out from the surging chaos behind Feng Bingwen, a strange wave swept across the Zhanmeng Islands, and an indescribable pressure descended from the sky, like the majestic might of heaven that descends along with a heavenly tribulation.
Thump!
Outside the Dao Palace, Sun Yuansheng, who was meditating cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes. A brilliant light shone from his golden eyes, and then he fell to the ground without any resistance, looking completely bewildered.
But soon this monkey with extraordinary bloodline realized what was happening. He lay on the ground, turned his head with difficulty, and looked at the Dao Palace behind him. The immense pressure was emanating from it, as if some extremely terrifying being was being born.
"Shameless!"
The monkey gritted his teeth, his eyes contorted with rage. Caught off guard, he was forced to break free from his meditation. As his body gradually adapted to the oppressive aura, he struggled to his feet.
He looked at the majestic Taoist palace before him, and a real anger ignited in his eyes. In his view, this was his master going back on his word and using such means to prevent him from entering the blessed land.
After all, meditation was too easy for him. He wasn't one of those lively and active wild monkeys in the mountains; sitting still was really nothing to him.
He was initially overjoyed, thinking that his master was giving him a chance, but he never expected that his master would use such despicable means halfway through, causing him to fail at the last minute.
"You've made such a commotion just to stop me, Old Sun, from entering the blessed land? If you won't let me in, I'll go in anyway!"
The more Sun Yuansheng thought about it, the angrier he became. The arrogance that had been suppressed deep in his blood for so long surfaced in his increasingly ferocious face.
He could feel that the sea surface of the Chanmeng Islands, which used to be filled with endless waves, was now as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the azure sky without even a ripple.
Not only that, but many creatures that lived, reproduced, and played on the islands were also lying prostrate on the ground, unable to move. Many of the weaker ones even fainted.
The oppressive aura emanating from that palace covered a considerable area, causing quite a commotion, but the monkey believed it was directed at him.
After all, among all the islands, apart from that shameless Taoist in the Dao Palace, he was the strongest and had the highest cultivation.
The oppressive aura that enveloped the islands lasted for a moment before slowly dissipating. Then, under the fiery gaze of the monkey, a Taoist priest in a green robe slowly walked out of the Taoist palace, looking comfortable and at ease.
"Hey, Yuan Sheng, what are you doing standing here? Who offended you? Why are you making such a sour face?"
Having only studied the methods given to him by his master for a few days, Feng Bingwen, who had successfully refined a Dharma image with his own extraordinary phenomena as the core, was in a very good mood. However, as soon as he stepped out, his head slightly touching the ground, he saw a monkey in front of him with a sour face, looking like it had a deep grudge.
“When you were young, I respected your status as a true disciple and recognized you as my master. I thought that I could enter the blessed land of the Dao Venerable with you in the future. So, in the years since you left, I have been managing this archipelago in an orderly manner with trepidation. I dare not touch any of the many spiritual creatures, just to please you!”
Seeing Feng Bingwen bow his head to ask, Sun Yuansheng's ferocious face slowly returned to calm, and a peaceful aura emanated from him. His years of cultivation had not been in vain.
"But now that you are in charge of the blessed land, you hold a high position and great power, yet you don't even bother to look at me, a mere monkey. Now you are making things difficult for me in every way. All I ask for is to enter the blessed land to cultivate without harming you in the slightest, but you just won't agree!"
As the monkey in front of him became more and more aggrieved, Feng Bingwen couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic, but also a bit embarrassed and confused.
The way he's being described makes it sound like he's some kind of unscrupulous landlord, a skinflint from the cultivation world, only thinking about exploiting his subordinates and not giving them any benefits.
"Ahem, I didn't say I wouldn't agree. If you can meditate for ten days and remain still, I will allow you to cultivate with me!"
Feng Bingwen coughed lightly, correcting the monkey's statement. He wasn't that bored; he felt he was quite lenient with his subordinates.
"Stop pretending. It's only ten days. If you don't cause trouble, I'll finish it easily!"
Sun Yuansheng couldn't help but grimace again. He was filled with grievances. He had gone from being the monkey king who fought on the mountain to being a monkey guarding people's homes. What was he trying to gain?
"Well, sir, I just had a sudden enlightenment during my cultivation and happened to have created a Dharma image, so I couldn't stop it!"
Looking at the monkey's pitiful yet defiant appearance, Feng Bingwen couldn't muster any anger. In fact, he couldn't help but chuckle.
He roughly knew what had happened. Although he was in the midst of cultivation, he still had some sensitivity to the outside world. He knew that the moment his Dharma form took shape, it seemed to have some influence on the outside world.
"Congratulations, sir!"
Sun Yuansheng couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark. His mentality had completely collapsed at this moment. He was like a working monkey who had worked hard for years but suddenly found out that the wages he was entitled to were going to be canceled. He didn't believe anything Feng Bingwen said at this moment.
"Although it wasn't my intention, I know I was wrong to do this!"
Feng Bingwen looked at the monkey with fire-breathing eyes before him, pondered for a moment, and then came up with a solution.
"In that case, I have created a new Dharma form, but I do not know how powerful it will be. I see that you, Yuan Sheng, are currently feeling depressed and need an outlet for your emotions. Why don't you spar with my Dharma form? If you can withstand it for an hour without being defeated, you can cultivate with me. What do you say?"
"I couldn't ask for more!"
Upon hearing Feng Bingwen's words, Sun Yuansheng tore his Taoist robe to shreds without a word, revealing a suit of golden armor beneath. He reached into the monkey hair behind his head, gave it a gentle shake, and an iron rod appeared in his palm.
"Good monkey!"
Looking at the monkey's dazzling attire, Feng Bingwen couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "Putting everything else aside, it looks really good, and it would be quite impressive to take it out."
As he spoke, a giant, whose body was muscular and perfect, appeared behind Feng Bingwen, his feet treading on the chaos. The moment he appeared, a powerful pressure descended upon him.
This was the second time Sun Yuansheng had endured this pressure. He leaned on his iron rod, motionless. His body, which was originally shorter than Feng Bingwen's, grew longer in the wind and soon became a hundred feet tall, reaching the same height as the Dharma image behind Feng Bingwen.
"With this kind of Dharma form, you think you can remain undefeated for an hour? You're seriously underestimating me, Old Sun!"
"Yuan Sheng, let's talk about this after you've finished fighting!"
Feng Bingwen said with a smile.
Judging by appearance alone, the Dharma form he cultivated was indeed mediocre. After all, it had emerged from chaos and had no chaotic energy as a background. It looked just like a scaled-up version of himself, a hundred feet tall, and he was naked except for some covering at the waist. It was indeed extremely shabby!
Putting everything else aside, as a Dharma form cultivated by a Taoist immortal, it should at least have some kind of divine light or golden lotus as a backdrop. Those with a bit more style would also add auspicious symbols like cranes and egrets at the feet of their Dharma form.
"If I were to destroy your Dharma form, you wouldn't blame me, would you?"
"If you have the ability, go for it! Don't hold back!"
Feng Bingwen waved his hand, indicating that he didn't mind. Even for cultivators, the shattering of the Dharma body would cause a severe backlash due to the relationship with the cultivator.
"If you can defeat my Dharma form, I will accept whatever you ask for, as long as I have the ability to do so!"
"I'll remember what you said!"
Upon hearing Feng Bingwen's words, Sun Yuansheng's eyes flashed with a fierce light. He lifted the hundred-foot iron rod in his hand, which resembled an iron mountain, and brought it down on the head of the Dharma Image, seemingly about to shatter it with a single blow.
boom--
Rumble—
The earth roared, the islands trembled, and even the once smooth ocean was now filled with raging waves. Endless raging winds and gales blew from the island where Feng Bingwen Dao Palace was located in all directions, leaving devastation everywhere.
"This monkey is really something!"
At this moment, Feng Bingwen had already retreated to the side, watching Sun Yuansheng, who had transformed into an unparalleled ferocious ape, fight against his own Dharma form. However, his brows quickly furrowed, and a look of pain appeared on his face.
Although there was no deliberate destruction, the mere aftermath of the battle caused mountains to crumble, rivers to overflow, and trees to fall, turning the once idyllic landscape into a scene ravaged by dogs.
"Let's fight at sea instead of messing around in my cave!"
Feng Bingwen took out the Zhanmeng Jade Seal, held it in his hand, and accompanied by a faint dragon's roar, the two enormous creatures disappeared into the archipelago.
But soon, the aftershocks of the fierce battle came from outside the archipelago. However, compared to the rampage that erupted within the archipelago, the impact was much weaker, amounting to nothing more than a fierce gale. Once Feng Bingwen activated the magic restriction, the many islands returned to a peaceful and sunny state.
"Master, what has happened?"
As the archipelago returned to calm, the group of followers who had been watching from the surrounding area cautiously gathered around, their eyes filled with fear and unease. Five-Colored Deer Flower Morning Glory asked somewhat nervously.
"Is that monkey going to rebel?"
"Don't overthink it. Master has just created a Dharma Image and asked Monkey to test its power for me. It's just a friendly spar, so there's no need to panic. If you're interested, you can come with me to watch the match!"
Feng Bingwen reassured these little ones who could no longer keep up with him, but still had potential for development.
Regardless, he has a large and successful business, so he still needs some capable subordinates.
Can we?
"Is this the kind of battle we should be watching?"
"It's alright, I'm here to protect you, what are you afraid of!"
Feng Bingwen took full responsibility, showing no concern whatsoever that his Dharma form would lose to that monkey. With a thought, he led a group of eager-to-join-the-funny little ones to the best vantage point to watch the battle with great interest!
"Now you can act freely without any more reservations!"
The giant, embodying the beauty of strength, treads on the vast ocean as if walking on flat ground. He looks at the giant ape opposite him, clad in golden armor and wielding an iron rod, and speaks words of comfort.
"You don't intend to use the laws and prohibitions of the Chanmon Islands to suppress me?"
Sun Yuansheng was still somewhat doubtful. He had just sensed the fluctuations of the dragon vein and was startled. He thought that the unscrupulous master who had gone back on his word was planning to use underhanded tactics again, thinking that he was no match for him and would suppress him on the spot.
"I have said it before, my word is law. In this contest of magic, only my Dharma form will participate. Not only will the magical restrictions of the Zhanmeng Islands not be lifted, but even my true form will not make a move!"
The giant felt a sense of control over the primordial energy of heaven and earth. This was a completely different experience from having a flesh and blood body. It seemed that he had a stronger and more sensitive grasp of spiritual energy.
"Now that I've moved you here, you should have no more reservations and can go all out!"
"You're right. It seems you really want me to smash your Dharma form to pieces. In that case, I won't hold back!"
"Don't be so polite, I don't intend to hold back anymore!"
As he spoke, the giant stepped forward and stomped heavily. The seawater that supported his massive body seemed to gain self-awareness at that moment, and like countless dragons and snakes, it climbed up the giant's ankles, quickly enveloping most of his body, and finally transforming into a pair of sharply defined blue armor plates.
Moreover, as time goes by, the color of this set of azure armor is slowly becoming deeper at an imperceptible pace.
Xuan Yuan Heavy Water!
This was not the end. The giant reached out and gestured towards the sky, where endless lightning erupted from the clouds. Finally, a thick purple lightning dragon fell from the sky and landed in the giant's palm. The lightning intertwined and evolved, and then, under absolute control, it was shaped into a slightly flamboyant lightning halberd that appeared in the giant's palm.
"Divine Firmament Thunder!"
Sun Yuansheng's eyelids twitched involuntarily as he watched the giant, who had donned armor and weapons in such a short time. His gaze fell directly on the lightning halberd in the giant's hand, especially the deep purple lightning bolt at its core.
He was a discerning monkey, not some wild mountain demon. He recognized this renowned supernatural power, and his gaze involuntarily fell on the iron rod in his hand, his lips twitching again!
This weapon doesn't seem quite right!
But there was no time to change the monkey's weapon. The giant had already stepped on the seawater, stirring up endless waves and triggering thunderstorms in the sky. With invincible force, he strode forward!
clang!
A visible circular shockwave rippled out from the point of clash, its terrifying power instantly crushing the sea and clearing away most of the lightning falling from the sky.
Even so, the majestic Monkey King, wielding an iron rod, was still convulsing and emitting blue smoke!
