Chapter 61: Laozi’s Shock
Sun Wukong, after carefully contemplating Tai Shang Lao Jun’s alchemy insights and his understanding of formations, could hardly wait and hurried back to the Douluo Palace.
When Golden Horn came out to greet him, he was quite surprised and doubtful, "The Grandmaster taught you these things, and you’ve already mastered them so quickly?"
"Simple, simple, just a bit of pondering, and I’ve got it all." Sun Wukong said with a laugh, modesty in his tone.
Golden Horn didn’t believe him, feeling that this Monkey King was bragging, but still led the way ahead until they reached the grand hall of the palace and paid respects to Tai Shang Lao Jun.
"Very good." Tai Shang Lao Jun said with a nod and a smile, "In less than a quarter of an hour, you’ve grasped those formation restrictions and the basics of artifact refining."
Although he also felt it was too quick, he still believed Sun Wukong.
An hour in heaven is also made up of eight quarters, with one quarter being equivalent to just under four days on earth.
According to his expectations, given Sun Wukong’s comprehension, it should have taken him about half an hour to fully understand.
Now that less than a quarter had passed, it indicated that he had previously underestimated Sun Wukong’s comprehension, truly worthy of being a naturally intelligent being.
Hearing what Tai Shang Lao Jun said, Sun Wukong scratched his face with a grin, eager to show off his skills, then said, "Grandmaster, having mastered the Path of Artifact Refining, I wish to try my hand at it first."
