Chapter 188 : Sun Wukong!!

"Old Demon Han, it's really Old Demon Han."

"Wait, the inheritance level for this advanced lottery is so high?"

This is one of the fifteen legacies, and it's definitely the most powerful one.

When it comes to being blessed by luck, Old Demon Han is definitely just average.

And it's not just any ancient metaphors, but it's truly ordinary.

The most common place in the mortal world is Tiannan, the most common is Yueguo, the most common is Jingzhou, the most common is Qingniu Town, and the most common of all, the folks of Green Ox Village.

Even his nickname is unremarkable, they just call him Erlenzi.

Plain in appearance, with a dark complexion, nothing special.

Not some sort of wanderer.

He wasn't an orphan whose parents were killed; he's the fourth of five siblings.

As a child, he was taken into the mortal sect. He had the most ordinary spiritual roots. He practiced Changchun Gong and was taken in as a disciple by Doctor Mo. Later, he joined the cultivator sect Seven Mysteries Sect with a token of ascending immortals, and then officially embarked on the path of cultivation.

From then on, it was all about hard work and cultivation.

Plain to the extreme.

But such an ordinary person achieved something that billions of others wouldn't even dare to dream of.

After reaching the initial stage of God Transformation through cultivation, he slipped into the spiritual world through space nodes. After reaching the Mahayana period, he crossed the tribulation and flew to the Northern Cold Immortal Realm, eventually defeating the ancient or contemporary powers to become the supreme being of the immortal world.

In Old Demon Han's world, cultivation levels range from Qi refining, foundation building, core formation, Nascent Soul, God (Deity) transformation,Spatial Tempering,Body Integration, Mahayana, true immortal, golden immortal, Primordial Unity realm, Zenith Heaven realm, to Dao Ancestor realm.

Core Formation represents the Six Paths, Nascent Soul is akin to the Peak Sage stage.

God Transformation corresponds to the peak level realm of the powerhouse of the Ōtsutsuki clan.

And Spatial Tempering, Body Integration, and achieving Mahayana are unimaginable heights in the ninja world.

Only the Emperor's Domination World might match the A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality World.

This is an immortal cultivator who truly points the way to the Supreme Dao.

This world he's unveiled must be of a high-level, comparable to the Great Thousand world that extends far beyond the Heavenly Flame Continent.

And now, Han Li, plucked from the Golden List, finds himself on the cusp of God transformation Realm.

This signifies his imminent journey to the Chaoxing Sea. After more than a decade of companionship with Nangong Wan, he prepares to depart, returning to Tiannan to resume his cultivation. Before his departure, he intends to escort Shi Jian back to Tiannan as well, allowing him to embark on the rugged path to the far western lands. He will take charge of the Bamboo Sect, having captured its leader, inheriting the mantle of the Dayan God-kun.

Upon returning to the Falling Demon, he undertakes rigorous self-training. After a century of dedicated cultivation, he ascends to the peak state of the initial stage, mastering the final level of the Qingyuan Sword Art to the late Great Perfection Realm.

During this period, news arrives of the failed entry into the space node, prompting Qin Zhi's investigation in Wulonghai. Han Li, meanwhile, embarks on a quest, scouring the world for protective treasures and preparing for smuggling.

Every fortnight, he consumes a dragon scale fruit while diligently practicing the Bone Breaking Art. His strength surpasses the limits of an earthly monk, effortlessly lifting thousands of pounds of boulders with a single hand, devoid of mana.

"In this period, Old Demon Han may not match me in competition, yet he possesses numerous means," he muses. 

The crucial point is after his breakthrough into the realm of Dao Ancestor in the future grants him the ability to traverse time."

"If I were to threaten him, I might meet my end by a sword from the river of time," he reflects. "Thus, our only recourse is to forge a bond of friendship."

"However, Old Demon Han's temperament is not easy and it's difficult to create friendship," he acknowledges. "Yet, Golden List's willingness to include him suggests it is at least possible."

"Therefore, I still have a chance."

"My primary objective is to locate the world's portal to that realm," he declares with resolve.

Though slightly impatient, he perseveres, scanning the surroundings attentively.

Suddenly, his eyes widened in disbelief, almost uttering an expletive.

It's the Sun Wukong!

Not the Son Goku from the Dragon Ball World, but the one from Journey to the West—a figure of myth, perhaps with ties to the prehistoric world. Its potential transcends even the heights reached by Old Demon Han.

The Zenith Heaven, and even the Dao Ancestor, pale in comparison to the mythical Sun Monkey.

Is the grandeur of the primordial world truly superior to the legendary realms of the immortals?

In the realm of quasi-sages, heavenly sages, and Dao Ancestors who have attained sagehood, even as they transcend the boundless currents of time and gaze upon the vast expanse of the universe, they remain under eternal management. This is what defines strength within strength, nestled within the core.

Of course, it's also possible that the mythical Daluo holds greater power, comparable to the unconstrained saints. Both scenarios hold validity. However, regardless of the circumstance, there exists a realm of Daluo beyond Daluo, where Old Demon Han resides. The global standard has been elevated by at least one tier.

Certainly, Sun Monkey is a figure of legend, but his ultimate attainment cannot rival the Son of Destiny Han Li. Even with his mastery of the seventy-two transformations, spanning the heavens and the earth, his gaze pierces the veils of mastery.

Yet, this isn't cause for disdain. Why is Sun Wukong designated as the protagonist of the Quantity Tribulation? It's due to his transformation by the Nuwa sage and the Heaven-Repairing Stone. The one nurtured by this stone inherits the merit of mending the heavens, a merit comparable to that of acquired virtues.

Moreover, this stone lies upon the ancestral veins of the ten continents and three islands. If the stone monkeys hadn't been bound by worldly attachments, they might have ascended like innate spirits, becoming heavenly immortals, or even true and golden immortals.

However, the merit of his life and the spiritual energy he has absorbed reside within him. This allowed him to master the Great Art of Heavenly Immortality, reaching the realm of Golden Immortality within a mere twenty years.

All of this stems from inheritance, doesn't it? And can inheritance be deceived? After all, Sun Wukong still pursues immortality and transcendence, far surpassing Old Demon Han in this regard.

"The last inheritance, fifteenth."

"Xiaomeng?"

"Without Old Demon Han and Wukong, your strength would be formidable. You might even be the incarnation of Zhuangzi."

"But now, it seems..."

"In any case, we must preserve the fourteenth and thirteenth, as they represent opportunities."

"Tony Stark can do the same, seizing opportunities to potentially acquire the Infinity Stones."

"Super Saiyan 3 is attainable, not only because of the S cells, but it has also been refined to boost combat power by 400 times, which will prove advantageous in the future.

"Godou Kusanagi is skilled, but convincing him in ten minutes is a challenge.

"And I've forged a strong bond with Luo Hao, why don't you try to do the same?"

"Saitama's is too abnormal, convincing him might simply be impossible."

"Yato, merely a stray god, easily replaceable.

"Persuading Izayoi to return is difficult, unless I can address his concerns, but that's obviously impossible, and there's also a binding contract in the Golden List."

"Yakumo might be easily deceived, considering I understand her intentions, but her abilities aren't particularly useful to me."

"Kaito is truly useless!"

"Silly Zhu, even more so!"

"The Five Elders are not formidable enough to warrant attention!"

"Arceus, remarkably powerful, but it is still in the developmental stage, so it doesn't acknowledge me and say I'm not worthy."

"Kurumi Tokisaki is quite powerful, and at this juncture, numerous tragedies could be averted."

"I may not secure what I want but this is still better."

"Eliminate"

After careful analysis, a decision was reached.

Two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, ten, twelve, fifteen!

"Commence the lottery."

Following the draw, the remaining inheritances include "One: Son Goku Super Saiyan III," "Nine: Tony Stark (snapping his fingers) Marvel World," "Eleven: Kurumi Tokisaki (when she becomes a Spirit) Date A Live World," "Thirteen: Han Li (God Transformation Relam)," "Fourteen: Sun Wukong (Journey to the West)."

Exhale.

Next, awaits the moment of witnessing a miracle.

Will a miracle unfold?

The answer is, today's fate is decidedly good.

Ta-da!

The results are in.

Finally, the selection settles on the fourteenth.

Sun Wukong, who has just embarked on his journey to the sea!

He can only inherit his innate supernatural abilities, everything inherent to his being.

But isn't that sufficient?
