Chapter 569 -569: Saving the White Bone Spirit (Third Update!)
At that moment, Sun Wukong relayed Zhen Yuanzi’s request, and the eyes of the three including Puti Patriarch suddenly lit up.
“What a stroke of luck!”
Puti Patriarch clapped his hands and laughed, “This is an incredible fortune! It’s unexpected that Zhen Yuanzi turned out to be the first dragon vein cultivated between heaven and earth, and moreover, he’s even restricted by it! Truly, as the dragon veins prosper, so do they limit. Since he is willing to offer the dragon veins to join the foundation of the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court, that’s an opportunity not even available with a lantern in hand! It can strengthen the base of the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court and also meet the requirements stated by the Venerable Guanyin to support a soul—it is killing two birds with one stone! Brilliant, simply brilliant!”
“Indeed not bad!”
Demon Master Kunpeng also nodded, “Removing a dragon vein from the existing Nine Dragons Gathering Stars Formation at Flower-Fruit Mountain as a soul containment for Zi Xia Fairy might pose a risk to the foundation of the Demon Clan’s Heavenly Court, but using Zhen Yuanzi’s own dragon vein should not be problematic and might even play a huge promotional role, this method should be feasible!”
The words of Puti Patriarch and Demon Master Kunpeng excited Sun Wukong, but the words that followed from the Venerable Guanyin poured cold water on Sun Wukong’s fierce enthusiasm, “Great Saint, to transfer Zi Xia Fairy’s original body, you must first bring both the lamp wick and Qing Xia Fairy here, otherwise, it’s all empty talk.”
The joy on Sun Wukong’s face suddenly solidified. It would be easy to bring Qing Xia Fairy to Flower-Fruit Mountain for Zi Xia’s sake—I would even tie her up if necessary. But how to obtain that lamp wick?
The Tathagata Buddha had taken every effort to create Zi Xia Fairy, knowing that possessing the lamp wick could control Zi Xia Fairy, he would surely keep it in an extremely secretive place, possibly even on his person. How could it be easily obtained?
To get the lamp wick, I probably need to make a trip to Spiritual Mountain and have a showdown with the Tathagata Buddha!
“Wukong, the spiritual lamp that contains the lamp wick of our sister’s original body has always been in the mediation chamber where Tathagata Buddha cultivates. Tathagata Buddha hardly ever leaves it unattended; when not cultivating, he keeps it within the Immeasurable Buddha Nation, there’s absolutely no chance to steal it—you must not risk it!”
Zi Xia Fairy, who had regained some of her past memories, immediately guessed what was on Sun Wukong’s mind and promptly cautioned him.
“Old Sun knows!”
Sun Wukong smiled and nodded, patting Zi Xia Fairy on the back comfortingly, but he secretly made up his mind. Sooner or later, he would have to attack Spiritual Mountain and force that bald donkey Tathagata to hand over the spiritual lamp, taking that opportunity to settle old and new grudges with that bald donkey Tathagata!
The Journey to the West to Seek Scriptures was still ongoing. Sun Wukong left Zi Xia Fairy at Flower-Fruit Mountain and sent her into the Heaven-Piercing Tower. This was Zi Xia Fairy’s own request; she was at the realm of Taiyi Scattered Immortals in her cultivation, which she had not previously considered low. But after merging a soul with three corpses and regaining some past memories, this level of cultivation strength seemed far too low for her, she couldn’t even protect herself.
With the help of Puti Patriarch, Zi Xia Fairy could postpone her return to Spiritual Mountain and contact with her original body by another year—three years later, she must make a trip back to Spiritual Mountain. Zi Xia Fairy resolved to elevate her cultivation strength a level within these three years, at least reaching the Realm of Taiyi Golden Immortals!
“Wukong, this mentor has been cultivating lately and feels that I’ve reached a bottleneck. The Third Corpse – Corpse of Desire is almost ready to be severed. I’m planning on entering seclusion to cultivate and achieve a breakthrough. In the meantime, I probably won’t be able to help you much; you must be careful on your own, do not act recklessly.”
In the whole of Flower-Fruit Mountain, Puti Patriarch was the only one who could speak to Sun Wukong this way. Hearing this, Sun Wukong’s expression grew solemn, and he respectfully agreed. In all the Three Realms, the only one Sun Wukong would bow to was his mentor, Puti Patriarch. He would never resist his well-meaning admonitions.
“Master, how long will you need for your seclusion to Break through? Old Sun congratulates you in advance!”
“That’s hard to say, perhaps a few months to break through, or it might take three to five years to make even slight progress. In any case, during the breakthrough, your mentor will not be able to leave seclusion or lend you a hand. You must be very careful on your own!”
“Rest assured, Master, I’m not the same as I used to be. There are few in the Three Realms who can hurt me, and even if I were to confront Buddha himself, I might still have the strength to contend!”
Sun Wukong smiled proudly, “But Master, you don’t need to worry. Unless it’s absolutely necessary, I won’t easily confront Buddha. That bald donkey wouldn’t want to face me now either; we won’t be fighting anytime soon!”
“Just be careful in everything you do!”
Puti Patriarch nodded, exchanged a few words with Leng Xuan and others, and then stepped into the Heaven-Piercing Tower. Sun Wukong did not linger either. After discussing a few words with Leng Xuan, he mounted the clouds and flew westward. Calculating the time, Jiang Liu’er and the others should have already reached White Bone Ridge by now. Would they encounter the White Bone Spirit in this lifetime?
Two hours later, Sun Wukong arrived at White Bone Ridge and immediately saw Yuan Hong strike a demon from the sky to the ground with his staff— if not the White Bone Spirit, who else could it be?
However, on the ground, he did not see Jiang Liu’er. What happened? Where had Jiang Liu’er gone?
“Demon, hand over my master or today I will take your life!”
Yuan Hong landed on the ground, his iron staff pointing at the nose of the White Bone Spirit, he shouted fiercely.

“I haven’t captured your master, how can I return him?”
The White Bone Spirit, hit hard by Yuan Hong, was already seriously injured. Now, with eyes full of grievances and resentment, she stared fiercely at Yuan Hong, clenching her teeth.
“You won’t shed a tear until you see the coffin. Do you really think I wouldn’t dare kill you?”
Yuan Hong roared, and with a sudden swing, he struck his iron staff down towards the White Bone Spirit’s head. If the blow landed, it would likely split her skull, killing her instantly.
Whoom~!
Just as the White Bone Spirit was about to perish under the staff, suddenly a shield of energy appeared above her head. Yuan Hong’s ferocious blow was blocked by the energy shield, unable to make the slightest impact.
“Who is it?”
Startled, Yuan Hong swiftly looked around, just in time to see Sun Wukong descending from the clouds, causing him to pause in surprise, “Great Saint, is it you?”
“What, surprised to see me?”
Sun Wukong’s face carried a hint of displeasure as he snorted coldly, “Yuan Hong, it seems you’ve forgotten the words I once told you. Unless absolutely necessary, do not easily harm members of the Demon Clan! What great crime has this White Bone Spirit committed that you would so ruthlessly condemn her to death?”
