After the battle ended, Jiang Wang quickly summoned Old Sword Demon and Scarface.
Then he began asking questions; he was extremely interested in this whole series of events.
The old sword demon, having come from the closed world of Shenzhou, should have some understanding of those things.
"I never expected to be able to contact people in China. So, what did that monkey call himself?"
The old sword demon asked, and at that moment, Scarface took the place of the monkey and began his own conversation.
"He said his name was Sun Wukong, the demon king who wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Court hundreds of years ago."
Scarface said this, and the old sword demon's expression turned ugly.
“I knew it would be like this. I’ve thought the War God Path you’re cultivating looked familiar before.”
"If nothing unexpected happens, then the three-eyed war god is none other than Erlang Shen, the True Lord of Manifestation."
"I never expected that I could actually talk to that demon king. It's truly unbelievable."
"But his current situation is clearly that he has been sealed away, and the Divine Continent has already stabilized."
The old sword demon didn't know much about the war between immortals and demons, only that a monkey was leading it.
To avoid the chaos, the old sword demon simply ran away.
"Now we can discuss it, maybe we can go to Shenzhou World for a visit."
"I remember that Lord Jiang Wang really liked the Divine Continent."
The old sword demon smiled and stroked his beard; his stance, of course, was that of "human."
Therefore, he was naturally very happy that the demon king was suppressed and sealed.
"Old Sword Demon, let me tell you something. I once read a book where the protagonist was a monkey."
So Jiang Wang told the old sword demon about Journey to the West.
"In that case, the timing doesn't quite match up. I did hear a familiar name in the story."
"For example, Erlang Shen, the Jade Emperor, Buddha, and so on."
"However, apart from that three-eyed god, the other immortals, or rather, gods, are no longer here."
The old sword demon said, shaking his head.
"If even Buddha is gone, then who sealed Sun Wukong?"
Jiang Wang didn't understand. He felt that these stories should actually have corresponding points.
How did it come to this? He really didn't understand.
"The answer is reincarnation. I'll just tell you directly, there's no need to think about it any further."
"As for coming to the Divine Continent, you should give up on that as soon as possible."
A cold voice rang out, and Scarface circulated his battle qi, revealing a figure behind him.
It was a war god clad in golden armor, and notably, his three eyes were piercingly bright.
This is Erlang Shen, the only surviving "immortal" from the Investiture of the Gods era.
Jiang Wang looked at him, and although it was just a phantom, Jiang Wang was able to read something into it.
This guy's strength seems to be frozen, or rather, it's even more terrifying than being frozen.
His strength was completely stabilized to a certain extent, making it impossible for him to advance or retreat.
If nothing unexpected happens, this person is also cultivating the Path of the God of War.
This situation occurs because the power of the Investiture of the Gods is at work.
In Jiang Wang's understanding, the Supreme Consciousness is extremely wary of all kinds of powerful beings.
Those who are too powerful will inevitably be targeted, and the power of the God of War's Path is very special.
Challenges and pressure will only make the warriors of the Path of the War God stronger.
These guys are basically very difficult to kill.
The stronger the War God Path expert, the more troublesome it is for their supreme consciousness to respond.
Therefore, it is necessary to adopt some "other means".
The best approach is to seal them away, or rather, to kill their spirits.
Yang Jian's inclusion on the Investiture of the Gods list, in a sense, also meant he was sealed away.
His abilities were limited, making it impossible for him to go any further.
As time went on, his heart became increasingly empty.
His heart was already "dead," so he was perfectly suppressed by the supreme consciousness.
Another example is Sun Wukong, who clearly also has a story.
Yang Jian also said that this is a cycle.
"Various legends about monkeys have been passed down throughout China."
"Those monkeys are all the same monkey."
The Three-Eyed Lord said this, and he actually began to explain.
He had absolutely no need to bring these things up with the people in front of him.
Jiang Wang crossed his arms, finding the whole thing rather amusing.
"However, those legends and stories are not lacking in stories about doing good deeds."
"A monkey helps to slay demons and monsters; he is on our side."
"How could he possibly be the same demon king who wreaked havoc in Heaven? Wait, you mentioned reincarnation..."
The old sword demon blinked, suddenly realizing something.
Those so-called stories will actually spread and even be captured by the consciousness of other worlds.
And these world consciousnesses can even inject relevant information into the minds of some people.
This is like a writer's source of inspiration.
But more often than not, it is the world consciousness that is copying homework, with each world imitating the others in its actions.
Of the ninety million worlds, most have also experienced the era of the Investiture of the Gods.
Some people bestow deities, and if they do so to a good god, other worlds might follow suit.
Therefore, in such special circumstances, there may be many deities with the same name.
Shenzhou United is a multi-world entity, so it's only natural that its homework would be copied.
A monkey that slays demons and stands on the side of humanity must be constantly copied and replicated.
Based on the stories of Journey to the West told by Jiang Wang, the old sword demon did indeed understand some things.
Although the specific plot details are not mentioned, the growth of the protagonist, Sun Wukong, can be summarized in one sentence.
The monkey that jumped out of the stone gained its abilities and caused a great disturbance.
Then he "repented and embarked on the path of exorcising demons and monsters."
Finally, they achieved their goal.
Although there are certainly more details in the specific plot.
However, with such a clear storyline, other worlds could easily replicate this feat.
Beyond the world of Shenzhou, there exist countless versions of Sun Wukong created by human hands.
After being gathered together, all sorts of legends were compiled into a book called Journey to the West.
But now, the monkeys of the Divine Land world are still in the cycle of reincarnation.
Why bring up the topic of reincarnation?
Why are all those monkey stories about subduing demons and monsters in the world of Shenzhou related to this demon king?
It might even have been done by him personally.
Is this monkey suffering from a split personality? It's causing chaos one minute and fighting on behalf of humans the next.
It's all a cycle.
