Chapter 958: Chapter 301: Mountain Sealed for 100 Years [12,000-Word Chapter]_6
Your previous statement was just like Lord Taishang and the others, forcing Sun Wukong to do something.
In reality, as Sun Wukong said, if there were no him in this world, would the future living beings not survive?
What Elder Lord values in the future living beings is not just because of Sun Wukong, but rather the capabilities of the entire future generations.
Sun Wukong is merely one of the more powerful of the future beings, but he does not represent all future beings.
The Ancestral Dragon smiled bitterly, nodded, and said, “Since the Great Saint has such thoughts, no one would oppose them. The Great Saint has already done enough for future living beings.”
Sun Wukong remained noncommittal.
He never felt he had any contributions to the future living beings.
Even if he did some things, there was more selfish desire than benevolence.
Even founding the Great Sage Sect was under the urging of Ksitigarbha and Sun Wukong’s intent to disrupt Tathagata Buddha’s plans.
As for benevolence, he dared not say he had none, but it certainly was not much.
After all, Sun Wukong’s identity is that of a demon; claiming he has much benevolence for a world dominated by humans would be quite ridiculous.
The two bid farewell, and the Ancestral Dragon couldn’t help but smile as he watched Sun Wukong’s departing figure.
The arrangement of the Daoist Ancestor is something Sun Wukong can’t avoid even if he wanted to.
Sun Wukong is not worried, and the Ancestral Dragon is even less so.
Even if Emperor Jun and others return, they would not easily provoke a Dragon Clan with such a strong figure as the Ancestral Dragon.
Hence, the Dragon Clan remains stable.
A hundred years is very easy to endure.
“I simply don’t believe you can truly seal the mountain for a hundred years; it’s probably just for show, to let Lord Taishang and the others see, so that they won’t arrange so much for you.”
Thus thought the Ancestral Dragon.
In Huaguo Mountain, upon learning of what Sun Wukong planned to do, everyone was shocked.
Sealing the mountain for a hundred years; they were astonished as they stared at Sun Wukong, thinking he had taken ill.
If he weren’t in a haze, how could Sun Wukong make such a decision?
Sealing the mountain for a hundred years is utterly inconceivable given the current situation.
Even in seclusion, it’s never done like this.
Huaguo Mountain has always been at the forefront, one of the centers of conflict in the Three Realms.
And now to seal the mountain, isn’t it a bit late?
“Just follow my arrangements and don’t overthink; externally declare that Old Sun is going into closed-door cultivation, aiming for a higher Realm, needing a hundred years, hence sealing the mountain for a hundred years, and transferring the management of the Great Sage Sect to the Heavenly Court.”
Sun Wukong said.
Judging by his demeanor, he clearly had made up his mind.
Everyone exchanged looks, ultimately complying with Sun Wukong’s words and allowing him to seal the mountain for a hundred years.
However, they all were in the dark regarding why Sun Wukong wanted to do this.
When this news spread, the Three Realms were thrown into chaos.
Huaguo Mountain had always been one of the most active places in the Three Realms.
And now Huaguo Mountain announces its mountain-sealing, with no one from Huaguo Mountain venturing out.
The entire Three Realms were stunned.
Is it possible that Sun Wukong knows ancient gods are returning from outside, and thus is afraid?
Closed-door cultivation for a hundred years?
A large portion didn’t believe it.
When has Sun Wukong ever needed such a long time for training or breakthrough?
Moreover, even if he were in closed-door cultivation, it doesn’t necessarily mean Huaguo Mountain should seal the mountain.
Ignoring everyone’s questions, Sun Wukong indeed sealed the mountain.
All personnel of Huaguo Mountain returned to Huaguo Mountain.
Even the Great Emperor Ziwei came to inquire but was blocked from entering.
Clearly, sealing the mountain for a hundred years wasn’t merely casual talk; Sun Wukong indeed did so.
Even Great Emperor Ziwei couldn’t enter, let alone anyone else.
Great Emperor Ziwei was somewhat baffled, as anger rose within him.
What’s the matter with this monkey?
If you’re sealing the mountain, at least seal yourself inside, why outside?
He was merely curious, seeking to understand the situation, not requesting the monkey to come out.
Thinking of this, Great Emperor Ziwei was immensely frustrated.
He approached the Ancestral Dragon, asking if he knew the reason for the mountain sealing.
Only the Dragon Clan is closest to Sun Wukong, and the reason for Sun Wukong’s mountain sealing might only be known to Ancestral Dragon.
Upon hearing the Ancestral Dragon’s explanation, Great Emperor Ziwei was slightly astonished.
He hadn’t anticipated that Sun Wukong’s sealing of the mountain was associated with Lord Taishang.
Furrowing his brows, Great Emperor Ziwei smiled.
“I understand now, thank you Ancestral Dragon for clarifying.”
Great Emperor Ziwei said with a smile.
Seeing Great Emperor Ziwei’s cheerful appearance, the Ancestral Dragon couldn’t help but ask, “Does the Great Emperor have a way for Sun Wukong to break the mountain seal?”
Great Emperor Ziwei shook his head, decisively stating, “No, once that monkey decides on something, no one can influence him, unless he changes his mind himself.”
The Ancestral Dragon appeared puzzled; if this is the case, why did Great Emperor Ziwei seem so relieved and full of smiles earlier?
Great Emperor Ziwei understood the Ancestral Dragon’s confusion.
Actually, it wasn’t that the Ancestral Dragon failed to comprehend.
It’s mainly because in Ancestral Dragon and their minds, Taishang and their status is too high.
When encountering matters related to The Three Pure Ones, they are reluctant to ponder deeply and dare not explore further, avoiding entanglement with The Three Pure Ones as much as possible.
Therefore, while Ancestral Dragon remained baffled, Great Emperor Ziwei had realized.
Sun Wukong is not sealing the mountain for closed-door cultivation; he is compelling The Three Pure Ones to declare their stance.
Lord Taishang’s meticulous planning for Sun Wukong is far beyond the visible layers of arrangement.
He has deeper intentions; it’s just that no one can discern exactly what they are.
