Journey to the West: Become stronger by taking on disciples, start by recruiting a demonized Sun Wuk

The world of Journey to the West, the Peach Blossom Spring.

This is a secluded place, the Blissful Immortal Abode, and also the natural training ground for the transmigrator Chu Qing.

As long as he is in Peach Blossom Spring, Chu Qing will be invincible forever.

"hiss!"

On a recliner at the front of the house, Chu Qing tilted her head back and drank a cup of Jade Dew Peach Blossom Wine, which was extremely delicious.

White clouds drift lazily by, a gentle breeze blows, birds sing and flowers bloom; the entire immortal abode is self-sufficient.

As the wine went down his throat, Chu Qing sighed softly.

"With the great calamity of the Journey to the West imminent, in order to avoid being drawn into the calamity and tainted by karma, I can only live a carefree life in this Peach Blossom Immortal Abode."

Chu Qing was inherently indifferent to worldly affairs and loved this carefree life of avoiding calamities and karma.

"Ding! New quest triggered: Automatically recruit apprentices."

"The host can become stronger as long as he takes on disciples, and there is no limit to how strong he can become."

"Moreover, all disciples will actively seek out the host through various opportunities to complete the apprenticeship process."

Hearing the long-absent system voice, Chu Qing frowned.

"If they automatically take on disciples and actively seek me out to become their master, wouldn't that drag me into the Journey to the West calamity and get tainted by karma?"

Chu Qing felt rather helpless; some causes and effects were destined to be unavoidable.

"I wonder who will be the first to come to me seeking to become my disciple."

Chu Qing lay in the rocking chair, lost in thought, as a gentle breeze caused her to rise and fall.

Peach petals drifted down, their fragrance spreading far and wide, giving Chu Qing a sense of having attained true immortality.

……

Dongsheng Shenzhou, Huaguo Mountain, Water Curtain Cave.

Early in the morning, the intelligent stone monkey, who had become the Monkey King, woke up on the stone bed and suddenly saw a light shining from one side of the cave.

Then, the light became more solid and slowly opened, like a doorway.

The interior is not visible, but it exudes an ethereal and otherworldly aura.

Filled with curiosity, the Monkey King reached out and touched the portal of light.

"Whoosh!"

Instantly, a bright light shone forth, and the Monkey King was sucked inside, restoring the cave to normal.

A moment later, some of the monkeys came in and offered peaches, only to find that the Monkey King had vanished.

Instantly, Flower Fruit Mountain was thrown into chaos.

……

the other side.

The Monkey King, the Spiritual Stone Monkey, has appeared before a celestial realm.

Here, peach blossoms bloom in abundance, their fragrance filling the air, and an ethereal atmosphere lingers.

Looking around, one sees cranes calling, flocks of birds soaring, and all things bursting with life.

The Monkey King was overjoyed: "Could this be the legendary fairyland!"

"If it's a fairyland, there must be immortals, and some of them must know the secret to immortality. That's wonderful!"

The Monkey King entered, and although he jumped around, his face was full of awe and piety.

The more he walked, the more startled he became. The pavilions and terraces of Fragrant Hills exuded an ethereal, otherworldly air.

"Yes, yes, there must be immortals living here. It seems I have a chance to find the secret to immortality!"

Immortality has always been the Monkey King's obsession, even his inner demon.

Now that I've arrived at the immortal's abode, I'm incredibly excited.

Amidst the faint mist, a monkey's voice leaped out, its face already numb with shock.

Along the way, he had seen too many breathtaking masterpieces and was completely impressed.

"Heavens! There's someone! It's a deity! It's a deity!"

With a quick wave of his hand, dispelling the fog in front of him, the Monkey King saw a handsome young man lying on a rocking chair through the peach grove.

Her eyes were slightly closed, exuding a serene and elegant aura.

A gentle breeze caresses your face, and the rocking chair sways back and forth—the most serene scene in the world.

Moreover, the man seemed to be surrounded by a mysterious Daoist aura, in harmony with heaven and earth.

"Little monkey kowtows to the immortal, little monkey kowtows to the immortal!"

The Monkey King immediately bowed down, repeatedly calling out his sincere devotion.

"Knock knock knock!"

Three loud slaps to the head finally woke Chu Qing, who was half asleep.

Before he could even look up and take a closer look, the Monkey King kowtowed again, saying as he kowtowed.

"Immortal above, this little monkey is devoted to the Dao and seeks immortality. I beg you, Immortal, to take me in and teach me your magic!"

Chu Qing examined him carefully and was indeed moved by the Monkey King's absolute sincerity.

"Your sincerity and the fact that you found this place means we are destined to meet."

"I accept you as my disciple. From this day forward, you shall be my chief disciple."

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully accepted a disciple!]

[Reward: Early-stage Human Immortal cultivation level, Myriad Realms Cultivation Tower!]

As soon as the system voice finished speaking, Chu Qing clearly felt that his cultivation realm had reached the early stage of the Human Immortal realm.

All magical power cultivation increased dramatically, and the foundation was solid, with no hidden dangers.

"May I ask you, what is your name, and where do you come from?"

Chu Qing spoke to the monkey kneeling before him, who had not yet risen.

"Reporting to Master, I come from Flower Fruit Mountain in Aolai Country. I was transformed from a stubborn rock and do not yet have a name. I humbly request Master to bestow a name upon me."

The Monkey King spoke sincerely, his face full of excitement, but Chu Qing was taken aback.

"Aolai Country, Flower and Fruit Mountain, stubborn rocks, monkeys..."

"Could this be Sun Wukong? One of the key figures involved in the great Journey to the West calamity!"

Chu Qing was increasingly surprised as she thought about it.

He originally intended to hide in Peach Blossom Spring to avoid karma, but now he has directly taken Sun Wukong as his disciple.

This calamity of the Journey to the West is ultimately unavoidable!

"Since you have no name or surname, I will bestow a name upon you."

"Judging from your monkey-like appearance, I will take Sun as your surname. Moreover, you have already attained enlightenment and wisdom, and your mind is clear and empty. Therefore, I will name you Wukong."

"From this day forward, you will be known as Sun Wukong."

Upon hearing this, the monkey jumped up with joy, did a somersault on the spot, and then fell straight down to the ground.

"Sun Wukong greets his master! Greetings, master!"

Seeing how respectful Sun Wukong was to his teacher, Chu Qing quite liked him.

"Alright, now that you've joined my sect, let me explain a few rules."

"First and foremost, the master's name must not be mentioned to any living being, and not even a single word of the lineage can be revealed!"

"Secondly, when I am resting and enjoying myself, I must not be disturbed."

"Finally, everything is left to fate. I will not teach you any immortal techniques, but I will give you some pointers in secret. It all depends on your own understanding."

Sun Wukong nodded vigorously, "Master, I understand, I understand!"

Suddenly, he paused for a moment, then looked up and asked in confusion.

"By the way, Master, I do not yet know your name."

When asked this question, Chu Qing remembered and, after a moment's thought, spoke up.

"My name is Qingyi Immortal."

"Sun Wukong, do you see that martial arts building in the distance?"

Following the direction Chu Qing pointed, Sun Wukong, with his sharp eyes, instantly saw it clearly.

The three-story pavilion is simple and elegant, with an ethereal and otherworldly atmosphere.

"Master, I saw it! I saw it!"

Chu Qing nodded slightly: "Yes, the Dharma should not be easily passed on, and all methods should be left to fate."

"The Martial Arts Pavilion contains an endless array of immortal techniques and methods, all of which you may freely peruse."

"As for how much you can comprehend, it all depends on your own comprehension."

After saying that, Chu Qing lay down again, the rocking chair swaying, a gentle breeze caressing her face.

Upon seeing this, Sun Wukong kowtowed three more times.

"Thank you, Master. This disciple will go immediately!"

……

I just opened the cultivation method pavilion and entered the first floor.

"Snapped!"

The moment the door was pushed open, a book fell directly from the top of the towering bookshelf.

As luck would have it, they landed right in front of Sun Wukong.

After a moment of hesitation, Sun Wukong picked up the book, looked at the words on the cover, and muttered to himself.

"Nine Transformations of the Demonic Ape!"

He casually turned to the first page, and a mysterious aura appeared. Sun Wukong was stunned and entered a state of enlightenment.
