Chapter 283 - 250: Green Ox Demon Captures Tang Sanzang
The Rhinoceros King had willingly lowered his cultivation level to match Wukong in a challenge of supremacy.
Though the two could be considered peers, they hailed from different sects. The Three Pure Ones had always had their disputes, and once their disciples started fighting, it was a real battle. Wukong was a disciple of the Spiritual Treasure Celestial Venerable, and the Rhinoceros King was the mount of the Morality God. When these two fought, they reached a point where life and death were at stake, naturally holding back somewhat, but this battle was also about defending their sects’ honors!
Since his birth, the Rhinoceros King had followed Laozi, braving countless storms with him, and when they traveled west through the Hangu Pass, he had even been infused with great fortune!
Previously, Laozi had sent two Child disciples to block the way, but their mana was too weak, and Wukong had sent them back to Doulu Palace in a couple of moves, knowing they were Laozi’s Alchemical Child, so he had not struck to kill. However, this Rhinoceros King was different, having profound strength and being battle-hardened. Both of them had exerted nearly all their strength in their fight.
The Rhinoceros King skillfully wielded his spear, while Wukong, wielding the Jingu Bang, leapt from side to side. Considering just their martial arts, these two could fight for days and nights!
The Rhinoceros King took out a talisman, shouting, "Behold the talisman!"
A flash of golden light from the talisman and suddenly the void was filled with dense clouds. It was a Divine Sky Talisman, used to summon the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder.
Wukong, however, was not afraid upon seeing this. He had learned the "Divine Sky Torrential Rain" from Chi Songzi and had mastered the Divine Sky Taoist Magic to perfection. The thunder summoned by this talisman was merely lower-level divine thunder, not the wild, fierce kind! Wukong produced a small city from his hand, the "City of Thunder," which he had conquered in the Sea of Thunder from an Ancient Thunder God!
If it’s about playing with thunder, that Thunder God is the ancestor! If it’s about wind, then it’s Gongyang who’s the ancestor! And for rain, it’s Chi Songzi who is the ancestor!
