Immortal Demonic Path

Chapter 86 The Stone Monkey Becomes a Master

"Taking on a disciple?" Yu'er asked in surprise, "Shouldn't you have eaten?"

"Eating it will only allow one to inherit a portion of one's natural talent. Only those with short-sighted vision would think of consuming the sacred embryo of heaven and earth."

Li Changsheng said, "Of course, if it were ancient times, they would definitely have eaten it."

"Ancient times?" Yu'er asked, puzzled.

"Think about it, in ancient times, divine embryos were everywhere. If you ate one, your talent would increase; if you ate a bunch, wouldn't you truly become a genius?"

Li Changsheng laughed and said, "If we can cultivate a Heavenly Saint Embryo, and once it becomes a great power in the world, as long as it knows how to be grateful and provides me with some spiritual medicines to improve its physique, wouldn't that be better than just taking them?"

"What Your Majesty says makes sense," Yu'er said.

"Of course, many people in the world are short-sighted, such as monsters and humans."

Li Changsheng said, "Just like it says in the Monster Survival Guide, if you make humans feel threatened, or if you attract humans, humans will take action against you."

  

"Understood. We need to hide and protect ourselves, just like the survival guide says," Yu'er said.

"Yes," Li Changsheng said.

Yu'er said admiringly, "Your Majesty has a far-sighted vision that those little demons cannot match."

"That's right, I am Yu'er's king, so of course my vision is far-reaching," Li Changsheng said proudly.

In my past life, I used to trick children into looking at goldfish; now, I can directly trick little goldfish.

Yu'er's admiration grew even stronger: "Could I have this book as a gift?"

"sure."

Li Changsheng smiled and said, "Let's rest. Your Majesty also needs to go and cultivate."

"Yes." Yu'er, carrying the ancient book, sank into the pool.

Li Changsheng returned to the wooden house to rest.

As night deepened, Yu'er carefully left the Dragon Pool and entered the Northern Heavenly River.

Li Changsheng secretly followed, watching Yu'er arrive at the location of the golden monkey.

The golden monkey had already picked a bunch of fruits and was fast asleep on the shore.

"Little monkey," Yu'er called softly.

The golden monkey jolted awake, rubbed its eyes, and looked at Yu'er in surprise: "Sister Yu'er, why are you here so late?"

"Take a look at this book first." Yu'er opened her mouth and blew out a bubble, inside which was an ancient book.

The golden monkey caught the bubble, which burst, revealing an ancient book in its hand: "It's a cultivation method... the Sacred Embryo of Heaven and Earth?"

He stared blankly at the contents above; the sacred embryo, born from heaven and earth, was naturally imbued with a divine aura.

I... it seems like I am?

"This is an ancient book that the Great King found while searching for the method of immortality," Yu'er said. "You once said that you sprang from a stone, and your cultivation possesses a sacred aura, so you must be a divine embryo of heaven and earth."

"The Holy Embryo of Heaven and Earth..." the golden monkey murmured.

"You must hide well from now on. The king said that short-sighted monsters and humans will treat you as a tonic."

Yu'er said seriously, "Only someone with a long-term vision like the King would think of taking the Heavenly Sacred Embryo as a disciple."

"Take me as your disciple?" the golden monkey exclaimed in surprise. "Your Majesty knows about me?"

"I don't know, I didn't tell Your Majesty," Yu'er said. "I was just asking what Your Majesty would do if you encountered the Holy Embryo..."

He recounted how Li Changsheng encountered the Holy Embryo and took on a disciple.

If you train them well, the rewards will be even greater in the future!

The golden monkey said, "It's alright, it's alright. I've read the Monster Survival Guide, so I was able to disguise myself very well before I met you, sister."

"Are you sure you haven't mentioned to any other demons or humans that you sprang from a stone?" Yu'er asked solemnly.

"This..." The golden monkey was stunned, then said in a panic, "They mentioned it, they mentioned it, it's over, it's over. Although I didn't show any divine aura, they know that I was born from a stone."

Yu'er said in a deep voice, "You monkey, you're too reckless."

"Sister Yu'er, you must save me!" The golden monkey cried out in terror, "I don't want to be eaten! I've just begun my cultivation..."

"Don't panic. I'll ask the King tomorrow. If he's willing to take you in, with his abilities, he can definitely protect you," Yu'er said quickly.

"Thank you, Sister Yu'er, thank you, Sister Yu'er." The golden monkey bowed repeatedly.

"However, don't be in a hurry. The King knows you well enough. Let me go back and sound him out."

Yu'er said.

"Okay, okay, I'm not in a hurry, I'm not in a hurry," the golden monkey quickly replied.

Li Changsheng, who was hiding in the shadows, was stunned. Was it that easy?

He thought he would have to put in more effort, but to his surprise, an ancient book completely frightened the golden monkey.

To his surprise, the golden monkey had also read his monster survival guide.

Just how many copies of this survival guide were distributed that every monster had one?

But this is good too, it saves me a lot of trouble, and I can just wait for the Golden Monkey to come and become his disciple.

Yu'er comforted the golden monkey and returned to the Dragon Pool.

Li Changsheng also went back to the wooden house to cultivate first.

The next morning, Li Changsheng sent the dragonfish into the Northern Heavenly River as usual.

Yu'er did not leave, but waited for him in the Dragon Pool.

"Yu'er, what's wrong with you today? Why aren't you playing in the river?" Li Changsheng asked with concern.

"Your Majesty, there is something I would like to tell you," Yu'er said.

Li Changsheng laughed and said, "What is it? Let Your Majesty guess, could it be that you have a favorite fish?"

"Your Majesty, what are you saying?" Yu'er said shyly, "Yu'er is still young, and will stay with Your Majesty from now on."

"So you've learned to be shy now. Tell me, what's wrong?" Li Changsheng said.

Yu'er said, "Your Majesty, I have made a new friend who is all alone and destitute. I would like to ask Your Majesty to take him as your disciple."

"A friend? You'd take him as your disciple?" Li Changsheng looked at Yu'er and said, "If he weren't your beloved, would you be helping him like this?"

"Your Majesty, it's really not that. It's just a good friend who took pity on him. Besides, he's very talented."

Yu'er quickly said, "If Your Majesty accepts him, he will definitely be a powerful helper in the future."

"You know His Majesty is very busy and hasn't taken on any disciples yet," Li Changsheng said.

"Your Majesty, he is so pitiful. He has no father or mother and is bullied by the other lesser demons."

Yu'er then tried to appeal to Yu'er's emotions, saying, "If Your Majesty doesn't take him in, he probably won't live much longer and will be eaten by other monsters. He's Yu'er's only friend."

"Won't that cause trouble?" Li Changsheng asked. "I don't want a demon king to come looking for trouble so soon after I've taken on a disciple."

"Yu'er guarantees it won't happen. The only problem is that he's too talented," Yu'er said.

"Too much talent? How much talent can it be? Is it some kind of divine embryo?" Li Changsheng said nonchalantly, "This Great King is not afraid of strong talent, he is afraid of being a good-for-nothing."

"If Your Majesty is willing to take him as your disciple, his talent will definitely not disappoint Your Majesty."

Yu'er quickly replied, "If Your Majesty doesn't like him, Yu'er will send him away."

"Alright, you said it yourself. If your talent is too poor, I, the Great King, will not accept you. Don't say I'm heartless," Li Changsheng said seriously.

"Yu'er has gone. Your Majesty, please wait for Yu'er to return." Yu'er quickly replied, "I will also inform the surrounding demon kings to prevent them from approaching this place."

Upon hearing this, Li Changsheng was satisfied.

The reason he mentioned the other demon kings' visit was because he was worried that some demon kings would come and discover the monkey's problem.

Yu'er was specially instructed by the Dragon King to be a dragon-fish with a special bloodline, and even those demon kings had to give Yu'er face.

Yu'er brought the golden monkey over in the evening.

Wrapped tightly in a pile of weeds, the aquatic creatures had no idea what she had brought back.

"Your Majesty, Yu'er has told the brothers of the Water Tribe that from now on, any Water Tribe members coming here will have to get Your Majesty's permission."

Yu'er said.

"This is your friend?" Li Changsheng looked at the golden monkey wrapped in weeds.

Yu'er quickly channeled her spiritual power and released the golden monkey.

Upon seeing him, the golden monkey immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "Wild monkey from the mountains greets Your Majesty."

"No need for formalities," Li Changsheng said calmly. "The Five Elements Method? Yu'er passed on the Five Elements Dao to you?"

"Your Majesty, he has exceptional talent in the Five Elements, so I, Yu'er, passed it on to him. Please forgive me, Your Majesty." Yu'er quickly apologized.

"Sixth level of Qi Refining, how long have you been cultivating?" Li Changsheng asked.

"It has been three months," the golden monkey lied.

"March?" Li Changsheng exclaimed in shock, "This talent..."

Yu'er said, "Your Majesty, Yu'er is not lying to you, the little monkey is truly a genius."

Golden Monkey: "??"

I've been saying it for three months already, and you're still so shocked?

If I tell the truth... will I get eaten?

However, why does this king seem so approachable, with a strange sense of closeness to him?

"I have never taken on a disciple before, but I will make an exception today and accept you as my disciple." Li Changsheng nodded with satisfaction: "Do you have a name?"

"I have no name. My parents were wild monkeys in the mountains, and they have long since passed away. Please, Master, bestow a name upon me," the golden monkey hurriedly bowed.

"You are a monkey, and you will have to deal with humans in the future, so remove the beast radical from the character '猢' (hu). The character '猢' without the beast radical becomes '古月' (gu yue). '古' means old, and '月' means yin. Old yin cannot nurture, so let's just use the surname Sun."

Li Changsheng repeated his previous life's words, saying, "Back then, there was a genius bull demon who was granted the name 'Seeking the Dao.' I hope you can surpass that bull demon and be granted the name 'Attaining the Dao.'"

"Sun Chengdao?" the golden monkey murmured, bowing and saying, "Thank you for bestowing this name upon me, Master."

"Cultivate diligently from now on and achieve something as soon as possible," Li Changsheng said calmly.

"Yes, disciple will definitely cultivate diligently and follow Master's teachings." Sun Chengdao bowed respectfully.

"You also need to learn these books on alchemy and weapon crafting." Li Changsheng took out the books and handed them to Sun Cheng, saying, "I will teach you alchemy, weapon crafting, and the path of cultivation. You'll have a skill to rely on in the future."

"Thank you, Master," Sun Chengdao said respectfully.

"Go ahead, let Yu'er show you around." Li Changsheng waved his hand.

Yu'er happily took Sun Chengdao for a stroll around the area.

Sun Chengdao was also very curious about his surroundings and went to the Dragon Pool to see the other dragon fish.

Li Changsheng then went underground to cultivate and comprehend Liu Wuyou's world law.

Liu Wuyou's world law is more complete, and he surrounds himself with a world of leaves to strengthen his defense.

If one can truly cultivate the Three Thousand Worlds and use them to protect one's body, then anyone who wants to harm her will have to break through the Three Thousand Worlds first.

He could only refer to it for now, and after he finished, he continued to read books in Tianshui City.

Sun Chengdao stayed behind to focus on his cultivation, asking Li Changsheng questions whenever he encountered something he didn't understand.

Li Changsheng naturally imparted his knowledge without reservation. Of course, Sun Chengdao is not yet able to access the Five Elements Yin Yang Divine Light.

I will pass it on to him in the future, a split version of the Five Elements Divine Light.

Sun Chengdao studied the Five Elements, while Liu Wuyou comprehended Yin and Yang.

Once they have all achieved success, I will combine the Five Elements and Yin-Yang to create the supreme Dharma.

If the gap is too big by then, then outlive them and go to their graves to search.

He flipped through the cultivation methods, alchemy and weapon crafting techniques of Tianshui City, and organized and recorded them.

I also took the opportunity to write down what I had learned that day in my diary.

Seven days later, Nie Qiu transmitted a message to him: "Gu Hengtong is dead."

"Dead?" Li Changsheng feigned surprise, then asked, "How did he die?"

"I'm not entirely sure of the specifics, but it seems like they offended the Song family."

Nie Qiu said in a deep voice, "This morning, someone found Gu Hengtong's body outside the city. It was killed by a monster."

Li Changsheng remained silent.

Nie Qiu continued, "The Song family is now embroiled in another scandal involving collusion with monsters, but this time the Zhang family is on the Song family's side."

"Be careful, senior brother," Li Changsheng said.

"I understand. Be careful too. I'm worried about what happened at Lingxu Cave back then," Nie Qiu said in a low voice.

"Then we need to be even more careful and try to go to Tianshui City as little as possible in the future," Li Changsheng said.

The Zhang family chose to help the Song family. Could it be that Lin Yuemei's arrangements in the city were orchestrated by the Zhang family?

Just after losing contact with Nie Qiu, Liu Wuyou also sent a telepathic message: "Lin Yuemei is colluding with the Zhang family. This time, it was the Zhang family that sent Gu Hengtong out. The Song family was only responsible for handing him over to them."

"Now you know each other inside and out," Li Changsheng said.

"I will continue my conquest and wipe out the entire Northern Heavenly River!" Liu Wuyou said.

"Be careful," Li Changsheng said.

"I'll be careful. Come back in a while to collect the Demon King's artifact and demon core," Liu Wuyou said.

"Okay," Li Changsheng replied.

Liu Wuyou's campaign has begun again. Lin Yuemei wants to cooperate, and she will not take action against Tianshui City unless she takes advantage of the opportunity to maximize her benefits.

Lin Yuemei needed the Song family's support, so she had no choice but to comply with Liu Wuyou's demands.

The carnage in the Northern Heavenly River reignited, and the name of the Heavenly Heart Demon King spread far and wide.

Some lesser demons began to flee for their lives, heading far away from the Northern Heavenly River.

Li Changsheng led Sun Chengdao to focus on cultivation, instructing Sun Chengdao not to cultivate too quickly and to lay a solid foundation.

There was nothing he could do; the cultivation progressed too quickly, and he couldn't teach it anymore.

This talent is truly monstrous!

Sun Chengdao was very obedient, fearing that his unstable foundation would affect his future.

Yu'er also comprehended the Five Elements Dao, and with Sun Chengdao's help, she made considerable progress.

Li Changsheng devoted himself to alchemy and weapon crafting techniques, comprehending many methods in Tianshui City, and also asked Nie Qiu to find many methods in Qingyun Sect.

After half a year, he finally figured out the method of refining the Five Elements and Yin Yang.

He also successfully crafted the Five Elements Yin Yang Bottle.

A plain green bottle, without any patterns or array formations.

He then began searching for methods of illusion to enhance his own illusionary abilities.

As for Sun Chengdao, he definitely won't be telling stories this time.

This monkey's favorite thing to see is the number one wonder of heaven and earth, the immortal tree!

This monkey has an unshakeable obsession with immortality!

Another one trying to eat itself!

Tired of heart!

Fortunately, the monkey had learned to hide its divine aura and no longer revealed it, even when facing him.

This monkey, for the time being, only knows how to cultivate step by step, training whatever it is given, and doesn't have the kind of ingenious ideas that Liu Wuyou has.

On this day, Yu'er and Sun Chengdao rushed over: "Your Majesty, something terrible has happened!"

"What happened?" Li Changsheng asked.

"The Heavenly Heart Demon King is coming!" Yu'er exclaimed in a panic.

Sun Chengdao's face was resolute: "Master, let's fight that Heavenly Heart Demon King!"

Li Changsheng: "??"

Liu Wuyou, is he coming to attack me?

Doesn't the Dragon King want to do anything about it?

"That 'King of Inspiration'? Come out at once! I am General Erbai, under the command of the Heavenly Heart Demon King, here to deliver a challenge!"

A rabbit spirit, half the height of a person, holding a long spear, looked down at the dragon fish in the Dragon Pool.

Li Changsheng's lips twitched, and he said, "Disciple, go and accept the challenge. Tonight, I will seek out the Heavenly Heart Demon King to discuss the Dao."

"Yes." Sun Chengdao hurriedly went out to receive the challenge.

"Your Majesty, what should we do?" Yu'er asked worriedly. "I've heard that the Heavenly Heart Demon King is extremely terrifying, and even the Dragon Lord can't control her."

What should I do?

Li Changsheng sighed, "Go find Liu Wuyou, what else can we do?"
