Primordial Era: A member of the Jie Sect, apprenticed to Tongtian

"...The Great Sage Who Overturns the Seas is powerful; I have been defeated."

Even when the outcome is already known.

Given Sun Wukong's temperament, he naturally wouldn't intentionally try to be stubborn or argue forcefully.

Therefore, at this moment, he also very directly admitted his defeat.

However, at the same time, Sun Wukong was also experiencing a great sense of frustration.

To be fair...

Sun Wukong was actually quite confident in his own strength.

He was well aware of his weaknesses.

His combat experience was really limited, and his magical treasures weren't powerful enough.

Therefore, in his mind, even if he lost to Jiao Fuhai, it was not a shameful thing.

After all, it's obvious that Jiao Fuhai, the "Great Sage Who Overturns the Seas," has quite a reputation in the Three Realms.

However, this was within Sun Wukong's 22nd prediction.

Even though he was defeated by Jiao Fuhai.

It should be after the two have fought each other for hundreds of rounds before one of them loses.

He never thought of it.

I never imagined I would be defeated so completely.

From beginning to end, Jiao Fu Hai's attack was merely a single strike.

If the second attack were unleashed, it might even take Sun Wukong's life.

Such a huge gap in strength naturally made Sun Wukong feel frustrated.

More importantly, Sun Wukong could sense things very clearly.

Although Jiao Fuhai has been famous for a long time.

However, his cultivation level was only that of a Taiyi True Immortal.

He and Sun Wukong were at the same cultivation level.

But even at the same level, I was defeated so thoroughly and decisively.

This was quite a challenge for Sun Wukong, who was actually quite confident and proud.

This is undoubtedly a huge blow.

But at this moment, Jiao Fuhai laughed and said, "The Monkey King's Dharma body is quite powerful. I, Jiao Fuhai, only have the advantage of having cultivated for a few more years."

However, he was not arrogant in his words.

He did not mock Sun Wukong because of his victory.

Sun Wukong gave a wry smile upon hearing this.

But he didn't say anything more, taking it as Jiao Fuhai's polite words.

Then he thought it over and decided to take his leave—he had come here because he believed his cultivation and supernatural abilities were quite good, and he wanted to ask for weapons and armor.

The pretext he used was that he, the demon king of Flower Fruit Mountain, wanted to establish a good relationship with the Dragon Palace.

But here I was being so easily beaten.

How could he possibly have the face to ask for weapons and armor?

I just wish I could disappear into the ground and run away immediately.

Upon seeing this scene, Cundi Buddha Mother, who had been observing the situation, was extremely annoyed.

After all, seeing the monkey's behavior, even a fool could see that Sun Wukong's mentality had clearly been damaged by the beating.

But this was unacceptable to Cundi Buddha Mother—Sun Wukong was the Victorious Fighting Buddha ordained by her Buddhist sect.

If they were beaten into submission, wouldn't the idea of ​​winning the fight be a joke?

"This dragon that overturns the sea...it truly is..."

Therefore, at this moment, the Buddha Mother Cundi naturally felt a sudden urge to kill the dragon that covered the sea.

If it weren't for the fact that Jiao Fu Hai is, after all, from the Yuanquan Mountain lineage, and any trouble there would inevitably attract Shi Yuan's attention...

For Cundi Buddha Mother, that would be absolutely intolerable.

But now, he can't bear it, and he has to bear it.

But just as Sun Wukong was about to take his leave, Jiao Fuhai waved his hand to stop him.

"Where are you going, Monkey King? — I, Jiao, haven't given you the treasure I promised you yet!"

But that's what he said.

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong was naturally taken aback: "Hmm? What do you mean by that, Great Sage?"

He frowned deeply: "Since I, Old Sun, have been defeated, how can I have the face to ask for the Great Sage's treasure?"

His words revealed a hint of displeasure.

He felt that the dragon overturning the sea was perhaps humiliating him.

But upon hearing Sun Wukong's words, Jiao Fuhai laughed and waved his hand, saying, "Hey! Monkey King, you're mistaken!"

"When did I, Jiao, ever say that the Monkey King would defeat me?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong was taken aback.

Upon reflection, he indeed recalled that Jiao Fuhai had never said he wanted Sun Wukong to defeat him.

He only said, "If Sun Wukong's supernatural powers are worthy of that treasure, then give the treasure to him."

"I am quite confident in my own strength—it would be a bit unfair to ask the Monkey King to defeat me."

Jiao Fuhai also laughed at this moment.

Previously, Sun Wukong would have definitely spoken up in rebuttal.

However, after witnessing the power of Jiao Fu Hai here.

He naturally didn't intend to refute it, but simply assumed it to be true.

At this moment, Jiao Fuhai continued, "However, the Monkey King's cultivation and supernatural powers are more than worthy of this treasure."

As he spoke, he also waved gently.

Then, Sun Wukong was astonished to see it.

A pitch-black iron rod appeared in Jiao Fuhai's hand.

The iron rod looked unremarkable, yet it exuded a terrifying aura.

As they moved about, it seemed as if chilling air was constantly emanating from them.

"This staff was obtained by me, Jiao, from the Northern Sea."

"I once asked the sage of Yuanquan Mountain, and the sage said that this treasure should have been able to be transformed into a primordial spiritual treasure."

"Unfortunately, due to the fall of the demon master Kunpeng, the spiritual energy in the Northern Sea changed, causing this treasure to be born prematurely."

"Therefore, it was never complete and could not be transformed into a complete innate spiritual treasure—but its power is still extremely remarkable."

"I have many magical treasures, but this one is like a chicken rib—tasteless to eat and a pity to throw away."

"Today is the perfect day to decide whether to present this to the Monkey King as a weapon—what does the Monkey King think?"

Clearly, what Jiao Fuhai said was not true.

But he was clearly adept at lying.

The words spoken here are only half true and half false.

The truth is, he didn't lie about the situation regarding the Northern Sea.

There are indeed many spiritual materials and treasures in the Northern Sea.

Especially in the depths of the Northern Sea, there are indeed several innate objects that are rarely seen even in the Three Realms.

These things were preserved by Kunpeng in the past, existing as his foundation.

With Kunpeng's cultivation level, as his foundation, naturally few dared to provoke his tiger whiskers.

However, the demise of Kunpeng was all too sudden.

Shi Yuan suddenly appeared, and Kunpeng immediately perished at his hands.

These treasures from the Northern Sea naturally fell into the hands of Jiao Fu Hai.

As the Lord of the Northern Sea, Kunpeng even refined the entire Northern Sea into his own incarnation.

Under such circumstances, his demise naturally led to tremendous changes within the Northern Sea.

In some places, the spiritual energy becomes violent, while in others it becomes thin.

As a result, some spiritual materials were born ahead of schedule and fell into the hands of Jiao Fuhai.

These are all true.

But what about the origin of the stick in his hand?

However, this was the only falsehood in Jiao Fuhai's words.

That's right—the stick in his hand wasn't something he obtained from the Northern Sea.

It was before that Xuan Chi had instructed him to travel the world to complete Shi Yuan's arrangements.

The "key thing" given to him.

According to Xuan Chi.

"When the time is right, you will know the purpose of this item."
