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

After arranging for the Giant Spirit God, the Jade Emperor finally turned his attention to Sun Wukong.

Where is the Mighty Demon King?

"Your subject is here!" A ghostly figure, whose face was invisible and whose body was as tall as an iron tower, appeared out of thin air.

"Take the demon monkey Sun Wukong to the execution platform and chop his body to pieces!"

"Your subject obeys the decree!"

As the Mighty Demon King and Sun Wukong disappeared from their spot, all the immortals present breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems His Majesty has no intention of investigating further!

Taibai Xingjun calmed down and quickly realized that something was wrong.

If the monkey really did it on purpose, how could it have remained silent and been taken away by the Mighty Ghost King?

Perhaps I have misunderstood him?

Is this giant spirit god truly a Great Immortal?

He glanced instinctively in the direction of the giant spirit, and the next moment, his pupils suddenly contracted.

Late-stage Golden Immortal!

Wasn't he only at the early stage of Golden Immortal yesterday? How could he suddenly break through to the late stage of Golden Immortal?

How is that possible?

At the same time, Li Jing, who was standing nearby, also noticed something was wrong.

The monkey was about to be sent to the execution platform, but he remained silent and took the blame for everything.

In this situation, it doesn't seem like the monkey is deliberately playing tricks on him.

After all, no matter how mischievous this monkey is, you can't risk your life just to mess with him!

Since the monkey is fine.

Doesn't that mean the problem lies with the Giant Spirit God?

He quickly released his divine sense and probed the giant spirit god beside him.

Late-stage Golden Immortal!

This……

His pupils trembled, and he was too shocked to speak.

He only came to his senses when Taibai Xingjun sent him a telepathic message.

"We've all been tricked by this giant spirit!"

"What? Star Lord means that all of this was the Giant Spirit God's scheme!"

"Isn't it obvious?" Taibai Xingjun glared at Li Jing. "Although I don't know exactly how he did it, since he escaped your control, his cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, his official rank has risen steadily, and he has even gained the Jade Emperor's favor, becoming a Heavenly King in one fell swoop. He is the biggest beneficiary of this whole affair! Who else could it be but him?"

"But all these years, his cultivation level has remained at the Profound Immortal stage. How could he possibly break through to the late Golden Immortal stage in such a short time? Unless... he's been hiding his cultivation level all along!!"

"You're not too stupid!"

Venus sneered.

Li Jing froze on the spot.

Although he was once a disciple of the Xuanmen sect, he did not achieve his current status through his immortal cultivation. Instead, he broke through to the peak of the Golden Immortal realm through the merits of the Investiture of the Gods calamity, and with the addition of the Exquisite Pagoda, he had the strength to barely suppress Nezha.

If the Giant Spirit God already possessed the cultivation level of a late-stage Golden Immortal, it wouldn't be difficult to deceive him using some immortal techniques!

Thinking of this, his face suddenly turned ugly.

What a giant spirit god!

How dare you mock me, the king!

So what if one reaches the late stage of the Golden Immortal realm?

So what if you become a superstar?

Do you really think you can challenge me with this?

That's incredibly stupid!

How dare you insult a disciple of the Xuanmen sect?

Just you wait, when I find my chance, I will make you wish you were dead!

Beside him, Taibai Xingjun narrowed his eyes, and instead had the idea of ​​winning him over.

Judging from the current situation, Li Jing doesn't seem like a teammate who can accomplish anything!

In contrast, the Giant Spirit God, when weak, endured humiliation and kept a low profile, but once the time was right, he made a name for himself.

Such a brilliant person, if we can cooperate with him, we will surely achieve twice the result with half the effort!

They will never make the same mistakes as Li Jing.

Just then, the Mighty Ghost King, who was in charge of escorting Sun Wukong, arrived in a hurry with a male and a female celestial official, interrupting the grand court assembly.

"Your Majesty, that demonic monkey has somehow acquired some kind of magical body, impervious to sword cuts and axe strikes, and unharmed by wind and rain. With our abilities, we fear we cannot harm him! We beseech Your Majesty to consider this carefully!"

Upon hearing this, Venus felt that an opportunity to recruit him had arrived.

"Your Majesty, the demon monkey is a celestial being born of nature, formed by absorbing the essence of the sun and moon. Ordinary methods cannot harm him. It would be better to follow the plan previously discussed by the immortals and offer him the title of 'Great Sage Equal to Heaven,' without giving him a salary. This would satisfy his desire, thus preventing further turmoil in the Heavenly Court and also subduing the demon monkey to serve the Heavenly Court. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

The Jade Emperor pondered for a moment, and was about to nod in agreement when he saw Shi Daju step out from the crowd.

How could he miss such a good opportunity?

"Your Majesty, this demonic monkey does possess some skill, but the crimes it has committed are truly heinous and deserving of the wrath of both gods and men!"

"If we do not punish them severely, others will surely follow suit, and what will become of the Heavenly Court's authority?"

"Your humble servant, though unworthy, is willing to share Your Majesty's burdens and behead this demon monkey!"

Jade Emperor: "..."

Wasn't he just crowned Heavenly King?

Why are you in such a hurry to make a name for yourself?

But you're only at the late stage of Golden Immortal cultivation!

We can't just directly bestow upon her the title of Yuanjun, can we?

He thought about it carefully.

I think this isn't entirely impossible.

This giant spirit is a rough gem, but its sharpness is too great!

Letting Wukong temper his temper might not be a bad thing!

Seeing that the Jade Emperor was about to agree, Venus's eyes widened immediately.

Has His Majesty been persuaded by him?

Sun Wukong is a disciple of a Buddhist saint in the West. If he were to be killed by the Giant Spirit God, the consequences would be unimaginable!

Your Majesty, you are so foolish!

At this moment, the Giant Spirit God was in the right, and he could not refute him. He could only hurriedly send a message to the Queen Mother of the West and wait patiently.

Venus's worries naturally did not escape the Jade Emperor's notice.

However, the Jade Emperor did not care.

Others may not know, but he has an extraordinary understanding of Sun Wukong.

Wukong was transformed from the stone that mended the heavens, and he possessed the merit of mending the heavens. Not to mention the Giant Spirit God in the late stage of the Golden Immortal realm, even a true Great Luo Golden Immortal could not completely kill him.

Worrying about Sun Wukong's life is completely unnecessary!

Moreover, if the Buddhist sect can use the resources of the Heavenly Court to cultivate Sun Wukong, what's wrong with them using Sun Wukong in turn to hone their own trusted generals?

"In that case, you shall accompany the Mighty Demon King on this journey!"

Become!

Shi Daju was overjoyed.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty!"

After saying that, he followed the Mighty Ghost King to the famous Demon-Slaying Platform.

A strong, pungent smell of blood filled the air.

Sun Wukong, who had been looking relaxed, turned deathly pale upon seeing him.

He had great confidence in his physical body.

But the giant spirit's methods far exceeded his expectations.

He simply didn't dare to gamble.

"Everyone, step back!"

Shi Daju calmly gestured for everyone to step back, then casually took out the Nine-Patterned Xuanhua Axe and walked step by step to Sun Wukong.

"Monkey demon, do you have any last words?"

He didn't exude any aura, yet he still terrified Sun Wukong, causing him to break out in a cold sweat.

Sun Wukong felt that the person in front of him could not kill him, but he could not be sure. For a moment, his nerves were stretched to the limit.

Damn!

Is recruitment really the only option?

However, this little bit of fame probably won't affect the struggle for the Dao, and he still won't be able to escape death in the great calamity to come!

What should I do?

Just as he was hesitating,

A figure drifted from billions of miles away to stand before him.

She was an extremely noble woman, dressed in a brocade palace robe and wearing a phoenix crown, but her face was shrouded in mist, making it impossible to see her true appearance.

She stood on the demon-slaying platform, not looking at Sun Wukong, but coldly glancing at the Giant Spirit God. "Young man, don't be too bloodthirsty!"
