One person above Qing Huang Ting

Chapter 846 Reshaping the Chosen One

The man, carrying the chime, dropped the mallet and fell to the ground, his chest pierced, his heart shattered, and he fell into a coma.

Strangely, no blood flowed from the large hole in his chest. His other internal organs remained obediently in their positions, maintaining his vital signs.

The wound on his chest was the size of a bowl, with very smooth blood vessels and muscles. You could also see from the wound that the man's left lung was still slowly expanding and shrinking.

Pigsy discovered that all the small red swords had turned into flames and then gradually died out.

Samantabhadra Bodhisattva dispersed the sword formation, and Manjushri Bodhisattva also put down his sword.

Pigsy ignored everything else, his eyes bloodshot, and swung his nine-toothed rake, smashing it down on the back of Hu Xiuwu's head.

Hu Xiuwu neither dodged nor avoided, but 'Manjushri Bodhisattva' flashed past and used his Vajra Sword to block the Nine-Toothed Rake.

Pigsy cursed loudly: "You Hu Xiuwu! You bastard actually betrayed us and joined the Ling Mountain!"

'Samantabhadra Bodhisattva' sneered: 'You pig-headed fool, do you think the chosen one is still alive? Who is maintaining his life and destiny? Open your eyes and see who we really are!'

The illusory figures in the painting were burned away by magic, leaving behind the real ones.

Pigsy exclaimed in surprise, "Nezha! Prince Zhang! What on earth is going on?!"

Suddenly, Pigsy seemed to remember something and abruptly turned to look at the Bull Demon King, who was ordering his soldiers to send Red Boy into the Jade Cloud Palace.

Pigsy questioned the Bull Demon King: "Old Bull, did you already know the truth?"

The Bull Demon King smiled weakly: "He put on quite a show on my turf, how could I not know?"

Red Boy was alright, and his brother's things had been given to a decent junior, so the Bull Demon King was in an excellent mood.

Only a completely bewildered Pigsy threw away his nine-toothed rake, grabbed his pig ears, and went crazy, asking, "What on earth is going on? Is my nephew still alive?"

A pagoda appeared in Hu Xiuwu's hand: "The chosen one is not seriously injured, but he should be treated as soon as possible. Little Prince Zhang, you tell Pigsy the truth."

"I still have to deal with the chosen one."

Pigsy couldn't bear it and couldn't help but complain to Hu Xiuwu: "If you wanted to test your nephew, why use such a cruel method? Why be so ruthless?"

Hu Xiuwu said, "How can I entrust this to him with peace of mind if I don't do it this way?"

A door opened in the pagoda, and Hu Xiuwu reached out his left hand. A beam of golden light shot out from the door and landed in Hu Xiuwu's palm, turning into a glittering golden hoop.

It closely resembles the golden headband on Sun Wukong's head.

Pigsy exclaimed in surprise: "[Opportunity]! Monkey King's last remaining potential is actually in you."

Hu Xiuwu replied matter-of-factly, "Of course it's here with me. Where else do you think it is? With Erlang Shen? Or with the old monkey?"

With Hu Xiuwu around, Sun Wukong would naturally feel more at ease entrusting the most important "desire for opinion" to Hu Xiuwu, rather than Erlang Shen Yang Jian in Heaven.

Of course, Hu Xiuwu was not present at the scene of Sun Wukong's death, so the "desire for opinion" was passed on to Hu Xiuwu by Erlang Shen.

Erlang Shen was somewhat jealous, feeling a kind of anger that made him think, "Why does Sun Wukong trust you more?" It was clearly easier for Erlang Shen to hide his desire for opinions.

Therefore, when Hu Xiuwu wreaked havoc in Heaven, Erlang Shen was so ruthless. His anger wasn't feigned; it was simply because the reason for his anger was different from what the Jade Emperor imagined, and had nothing to do with Heaven. In fact, Sun Wukong's decision not to pass on his "desire for opinion" to Erlang Shen, just like his reluctance to let the Bull Demon King touch his remains, was for their own good.

[Desire for Opinion] Like other innate qualities, it also carries the overwhelming resentment of Sun Wukong before his death, and the unrestrained and monstrous aura of Sun Wukong after his death.

Hu Xiuwu possesses an innate demon-refining tower, which allows him to conceal desires and resentments within the tower, relying on the innate Yin and Yang energies to grind away demonic resentment.

However, if the desire for opinions is entrusted to Erlang Shen for safekeeping, Erlang Shen, who hides it in the Heavenly Eye, will only be corrupted by demonic energy and resentment.

On the contrary, it would damage his cultivation. In the original work, when Erlang Shen was in Yinmei Mountain, his forehead had a black third eye, and Fatian Xiangdi was also a fierce green lion, all because of his desire for opinions.

Hu Xiuwu's eyes saw through the ages, taking in the entire situation of the chosen ones.

Originally, the Man of Destiny did not fully digest Sun Wukong's six senses; he could only unleash a portion of their power.

Under the pressure from Prince Zhang and Nezha, a trend of integration and merging of ideas emerged.

Hu Xiuwu wanted to take advantage of this trend to completely integrate Sun Wukong's six senses with the Mandate of Heaven, and to fully unleash the power left behind by Sun Wukong.

"The desire for opinion carries the spirit and ideals of Sun Wukong. If the chosen one's ideals differ from Sun Wukong's, the desire for opinion will resist him, and he will not be able to inherit all of Sun Wukong's power."

Hu Xiuwu did not place the golden headband-like "Desire for Opinion" on the head of the chosen one, as that was the thing Sun Wukong hated most. How could he possibly allow his successor to wear the golden headband?

The golden hoop split in two, and a spirit of untamed defiance and indomitable courage burst forth.

Like a pillar supporting the sky, like the Monkey King.

Upon seeing this, Pigsy muttered to himself, "Eldest Brother! It's Eldest Brother!"

Hu Xiuwu pointed his sword and guided this power into the Heavenly Man's spiritual platform.

The chosen one will delve into Sun Wukong's memories and fight the final battle against the will he left behind. Only by winning his approval can he fully obtain the power of the "Desire for Opinion" and make up for the last shortcoming.

The struggle of will within the primordial spirit must be left to the chosen one, but Hu Xiuwu can help the chosen one integrate the remaining five root vessels.

"Come!" Hu Xiuwu chuckled softly, taking the chosen one into the exquisite realm of the Innate Demon Refining Tower.

The chosen one entered the Linglong Realm and floated in the center of Yin and Yang Qi. His tattered golden armor was decomposed into the most primordial spiritual essence.

The floating spiritual energy gradually filled the chest of the chosen one, connecting blood vessels, filling muscles, and reshaping the heart.

Immersed in a vast amount of spiritual energy, the chosen one naturally hugs his knees and curls up into a ball, like a fetus in its mother's arms.

Returning to the innate state of a baby, recreating the innate foundation.

All living things have six senses: eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind.

The chosen one is no exception. What Hu Xiuwu wants to do is to integrate Sun Wukong's six roots into the chosen one's innate six roots, thereby stimulating the chosen one's physical supernatural abilities and allowing the chosen one to fully inherit Sun Wukong's abilities.

The Yin and Yang energies rotate, creating the primordial chaos. The chosen one resides in the center, undergoing baptism and tempering, like a golden elixir in a purple-gold eight-trigram furnace, sorting out the five energies, balancing Yin and Yang, tracing back to the source, and condensing the primordial energies.

Yin-Yang Fire rose within the tower, forging a divine monkey that wreaked havoc.
