"What is this thing?" Hu Fei asked curiously.
"The Ascension Token... I want to give it to Emperor Monkey." Shen Qian briefly explained the function of the Ascension Token.
"What?" Grandpa Hu was stunned.
“This Heavenly Realm is not simple. The Great Sage’s strength is a bit weak. If he can also refine this Ascension Token, we will have an extra combatant… at least stronger than you.”
Shen Qian glanced at Old Man Hu with a hint of disdain as he spoke.
Hu Feiwei's cultivation level was only at the fourth level of the Mountain and Sea Realm. In Jingcheng, he would naturally be an unparalleled expert, but now, he was somewhat weak.
"What kind of look is that, kid!"
Hu Feiwei flew into a rage, "If I hadn't secretly protected you in Xingfu Community back then, you would have been killed by a vase falling from upstairs when you were eight years old. There wouldn't have been so many problems then!"
"What did you say?"
He was stunned for a moment.
"……nothing."
Hu Feiwei instantly regained his composure and waved his hand.
"Uncle Hu, something's not right with you!"
Shen Qian narrowed his eyes, as if trying to see through Hu Feiwei's heart.
"Don't get the wrong idea, kid. I chose to be a security guard in Xingfu Community. Even though I don't make much money, I'll still do what I'm supposed to do. What's wrong with saving someone or two on the side?"
"Old Hu said impatiently."
Seeing that he couldn't get any information from Shen Qian, he had no choice but to give up, but the doubts that already existed in his heart were amplified.
If Grandpa Hu's appearance in Xingfu Community wasn't a coincidence, there's a lot more to it than meets the eye.
However, this was not the time to "torture" Hu Fei. Shen Qian shook his head, first tossed the Ascension Token to the Great Sage, and then gave him some instructions in beast language.
"Are you serious?" Hu Feiwei couldn't help but ask, "Can demonic beasts also refine this Ascension Token?"
"The Great Sage possesses more spirituality than ordinary demonic beasts; perhaps he can succeed..."
Before Shen Qian finished speaking, the Great Sage had already thrown the Ascension Token into his mouth and swallowed it in one gulp.
Then, the Great Sage fell into a state of stillness, with only his eyes blinking.
Just as Shen Qian was about to ask a question, a dazzling light burst forth from the Great Sage, so bright that both of them instinctively covered their eyes with their hands.
Faintly, Shen Qian heard a deafening roar, a sound that seemed to come from right next to his ear, yet also seemed like an illusion echoing in the void.
When the light faded, Shen Qian and Hu Feiwei were both stunned as they looked at the Emperor Monkey that had reappeared before them.
Especially before sinking, he could hardly recognize it. Was this still his own Emperor Monkey?
The Emperor Monkey, which was originally only half a person tall, has now swelled to nearly two meters in height. All the fur on its body has turned into a shiny gold, especially the tuft of fur on its forehead, which was originally golden, now looks like a burning flame, dazzling and eye-catching.
The most bizarre thing was that a silver battle armor appeared on his body. Judging from the complexity of its design and the energy fluctuations on its surface, it was definitely a grade A or higher.
The Emperor Monkey, standing proudly in mid-air, exuded a profound aura and majestic presence, seemingly finally possessing some of the grandeur of the "Great Sage".
Why didn't this armor appear when I refined the Ascension Token?
While Shen Qian was surprised, a thought struck him, and he asked Emperor Monkey to punch him to see what would happen.
Emperor Monkey was also very excited. Upon hearing this, he let out a low roar and threw a punch, but it was aimed at Hu Feiwei, who was still somewhat bewildered.
boom!
After delivering the punch, Hu Feiwei vanished from the spot.
When Shen Qian realized something was wrong, it was too late. He quickly moved and helped Grandpa Hu, who was embedded in the wall, back from 300 meters away.
Fortunately, the monkey showed some restraint, and Grandpa Hu was mostly unharmed except for a few broken bones.
"Fuck your grandpa..."
After helping Grandpa Hu, who was wailing and cursing, have his bones set, he looked at Emperor Monkey with amazement.
He didn't know what kind of chemical reaction occurred between the Emperor Monkey and the Ascension Token, but after the Emperor Monkey refined the Ascension Token, he suddenly gained power comparable to the ordinary Nine Heavens of Mountains and Seas.
His "Dao" remains unchanged, but the armor that appeared out of nowhere on his body has both defensive and offensive capabilities, causing his power to surge.
"@!%..."
When Shen Qian asked him, Di Hou scratched his head and tried to explain.
After listening for a while, Shenqian basically said that it didn't know what was going on, but it felt the call of its ancestors when it was refining the Ascension Token.
Shen Qian listened with a sense of wonder, wondering if, in some distant past, there really was a monkey who served as the Keeper of the Heavenly Horses.
Is what Journey to the West is about actually true?
Although the real reason is unknown, it is a good thing that the Emperor Monkey's strength has undergone a qualitative transformation.
Without considering the influence of forbidden domains, the Nine Heavens of Mountains and Seas can definitely be considered a top-tier powerhouse.
After Grandpa Hu had rested briefly, the two men and the monkey led the three heavenly horses from the pasture and left the Imperial Horse Stables.
...
Although I had already experienced the vastness of the Heavenly Realm before, I still couldn't help but sigh with awe now.
The beam of light was clearly within sight, but when you actually headed there, you realize just how far away it is.
As mounts of immortals and gods, these celestial horses are definitely not slow, and are even close to the speed limit. However, the two people and the monkey have been on their way for more than ten minutes and have not yet reached their destination.
Hu Feiwei kept doubting whether Shen Qian had seen wrong. Just as Shen Qian was starting to waver after Hu Feiwei's words, Da Sheng on horseback suddenly stood up, pointed ahead, and shouted.
Shen Qian's gaze sharpened as he saw the clouds and mist dissipate, revealing an incredibly vast palace in his field of vision.
