The Primordial Giant Spirit God captures Sun Wukong at the start.

Sun Wukong has been captured again!

At this moment, he sat in the familiar dungeon, questioning his existence as a monkey.

He felt he had been set up, but he had no evidence.

Most importantly, he couldn't understand it.

What's the point of Venus and Giant Spirit God setting up this scheme?

This Venus de Milo's bottom isn't clean!

Could it be that they simply want to mess with me, Old Sun?

There's absolutely no reason for it!

Meanwhile, Shi Daju was inspecting the harvest.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for successfully altering cause and effect. Cultivation +50000 years, Supernatural Power - Borrowing the Path (no cultivation required), Mid-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure Nine Treasures Battle Armor (no refining required), 3 x 10-minute trial cards for the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.]

"It's actually a supernatural power?"

He was overjoyed.

The system's rewards were becoming more and more to his liking.

"receive!"

brush!

With a shudder, his cultivation level directly rose to the late stage of Golden Immortal.

Looking across the Heavenly Court, this level of cultivation is already considered that of a powerful figure who can be called a name.

Even the Four Heavenly Kings are only at this level of cultivation!

However, the Four Heavenly Kings were able to be promoted to Heavenly Kings not only because of their cultivation level, but also because of their background and their merit in following the emperor.

He is still relatively inexperienced, but if the Jade Emperor is willing to invest, it wouldn't be difficult for him to become a Heavenly King!

bass!

Nine rays of precious energy soared into the sky.

A set of golden armor covered his entire body.

The armor fit his body perfectly, as if it were tailor-made for him.

The innate restrictions within him merged perfectly with his mind and spirit.

"My darling!"

"Sun Wukong's golden chainmail is merely a low-grade innate spiritual treasure!"

Shi Da laughed loudly, and the Nine-Colored Treasure Aura suddenly returned to his armor, returning to calm.

boom!

One after another, supernatural powers formed by laws appeared in his mind.

Before long, it merged with his soul, just like his innate supernatural power.

"Borrowing the way...growing through the way of all spirits!"

"Causal supernatural powers!"

"By expending merit, one can borrow the path from all living beings and perform Dharma teachings upon them!"

"The downside is that it easily generates negative karma!"

"It does bear some resemblance to the innate supernatural powers of the Six-Eared Macaque!"

"However, the ability to borrow a path is clearly stronger! Although the Six-Eared Macaque's supernatural power does not generate karma, it is easily detected, belonging to the category of espionage supernatural power, which is incomparable to the causal supernatural power!"

"What incredible power!"

"But this merit is a bit troublesome!"

"It seems I still need to find a divine cultivation method to cultivate the Golden Wheel of Merit!"

"Alright!"

"The Heavenly Court has no shortage of divine techniques, which are perfect for concealing supernatural powers."

……

The next day, at the Lingxiao Palace.

Taibai Xingjun was dumbfounded as he watched Sun Wukong being pressed down by the Giant Spirit God.

You little devil!

You took the bribe but didn't do anything, huh?

The old Taoist priest thought Li Jing was being unfair and spoke up for you.

I never expected you, you greedy monkey!

Is it not enough to take the demon-revealing mirror made by the Queen Mother of the West?

Is this some kind of case of treating the old Taoist priest like a pig to be slaughtered?

Li Jing was also a little uneasy, fearing that Sun Wukong would reveal the bad things he had reported a few days ago.

They inevitably harbored some resentment towards Venus.

I promised you the rest would be your responsibility, and this is how you do things?

But seeing the gloomy look on Taibai Xingjun's face, he immediately realized that the problem probably lay with that damned monkey again.

That Taibai Xingjun is really stupid, so stupid as to believe the trust of a demon monkey!

If he had known this would happen, he should have taken action himself!

On his throne, the Jade Emperor, who had initially been uninterested, suddenly perked up.

It really is Sun Wukong!

It was I who misjudged.

This giant spirit is really something!

He didn't think the Giant Spirit God had that kind of power; he was more inclined to believe that the Giant Spirit God had persuaded Sun Wukong with some reason!

it is good!

OK!

While ability is important, what he needs even more is a confidant who is intelligent and capable!

The Jade Emperor looked at Shi Daju again, his eyes full of admiration.

He has the ability, the means, and the courage; a minor general's position is a waste of his talent!

Unfortunately, his strength is slightly lacking... Wait... He has broken through to the late stage of Golden Immortal?

wrong!

His aura was extremely stable, clearly indicating that he had been in a breakthrough state for some time.

It seems he was hiding his cultivation level before!

The Jade Emperor narrowed his eyes, and the Three Corpse Gods appeared in his eyes before suddenly returning to one.

In an instant, endless flames burned in his pupils.

Using the laws as fuel and innate restrictions as a catalyst, it is enough to see through all the illusions below the level of Quasi-Saint.

After a moment, he looked away.

As he expected, this giant spirit god had indeed already broken through to the late stage of the Golden Immortal realm. It was neither a fake using external objects nor a spy infused with incense by the Buddhist sect.

it is good!

In that case, being promoted to the position of Heavenly King would be enough!

"General Giant Spirit!"

"Your subject is here!"

Shi Daju could tell that the Jade Emperor was about to reward him!

I just don't know what kind of reward they will receive.

"General, you have rendered such an unparalleled service to the Heavenly Court by capturing the demon monkey. Is there anything you wish to ask for?"

"Whatever your request, I will grant it!"

The Jade Emperor waved his sleeve, appearing very generous.

Shi Daju hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I wish to request a top-tier divine cultivation technique. I humbly request Your Majesty's permission!"

"Oh?"

The Jade Emperor was somewhat surprised.

As everyone knows, in the primordial world, the path of gods was far inferior to the path of immortals.

A strong person with ideals will not easily give up the path of immortality.

The fact that the Giant Spirit God could hide his cultivation level under Li Jing's nose for so many years clearly shows that he is an ambitious person.

Today they are seeking divine cultivation techniques... Could it be that they have taken a liking to the Investiture of the Gods?

As the nominal center of the Three Realms, the Heavenly Court possesses countless divine cultivation techniques.

However, the strongest of them is the Investiture of the Gods Technique, which is derived from the Investiture of the Gods List. It can not only help the Heavenly Court absorb the power of merit, but also suppress the soul immortals on the Investiture of the Gods List!

These techniques were not known to anyone else in the Heavenly Court except for the Jade Emperor's Society, which controlled the Investiture of the Gods.

So that's what he was thinking!

A slight smile appeared on his lips.

"good!"

"I hereby bestow upon you the Investiture of the Gods!"

After saying that, he pointed a finger at Shi Daju's forehead.

A profound and mysterious technique instantly entered Shi Daju's mind.

After digesting the information about the cultivation technique, he suddenly widened his eyes.

He knelt down with a thud.

"Your Majesty, I thank you for your great kindness!"

"Very well, I see that your cultivation has improved again. It seems that being a mere celestial general is a waste of your talents. Effective immediately, I hereby bestow upon you the title of Giant Spirit Heavenly King and grant you a Heavenly King's Mansion!"

Upon hearing the Jade Emperor's words, all the immortals present widened their eyes in surprise.

This is the throne of the Heavenly King!

Although he cannot be compared with the Seven Lords of the Big Dipper, he is already on par with ordinary star lords!

What merit or ability does this giant spirit possess to occupy such a high position?

Surprisingly, not a single person stood up to object.

It's not that they are kind-hearted, but rather that they dare not contradict the Jade Emperor now.

The mess Li Jing is involved with them to some extent. If they are thoroughly investigated, none of them will escape!

Sun Wukong has been captured and brought to justice. How far the investigation goes is entirely up to the Jade Emperor!

To offend the Jade Emperor at this moment would be like the Old Man of Longevity hanging himself—courting death.

Shi Daju was stunned.

So this is how he becomes a superstar?

Does this mean he's now on equal footing with Li Jing?

He came to his senses and suddenly felt that the imperial edict in front of him was a little too hot to handle.

But then he thought, if the Jade Emperor dared to bestow such a reward, what was there for him not to accept?

With this in mind, he decisively accepted the imperial decree!

"Thank you for your great kindness, Your Majesty!"
