Chapter 3: Chapter 3 Moving Mountains, No Need for Trouble
Upon hearing this, Tang Sanzang's breath halted its increase, he withdrew his fist, and with his mouth wide open, he let out a ferocious smile, his teeth grating loudly in his mouth, sparks flying everywhere, as he sinisterly said, "You want to duel me one-on-one?"
Sun Wukong shouted, "Yes, one-on-one! If you're a man, fight me fairly!"
Then Sun Wukong pointed to the Five Fingers Mountain above his head and said, "See that? This is the Five Fingers Mountain personally established by Buddha himself.
If you go up there and lift the seal, I will be able to get out.
At that time, we can fight fairly, life or death will depend solely on strength, how about it?"
Tang Sanzang looked up at the mountain, which was divided into five layers and extremely tall; looking up, the mountain stretched straight into the clouds, making it impossible to see anything at the top.
Tang Sanzang gave a gentle blow.
Whoo!
A powerful gale rose from the ground, and the clouds dispersed, revealing a hundred-meter-wide golden talisman at the top of the mountain!
The talisman shone with golden light, as if it had the power to suppress thousands of mountains.
Sun Wukong grinned and said, "Baldy, dare you lift it?"
Tang Sanzang didn't speak, but instead...
Click!
Tang Sanzang clenched his fist.
Hiss!
Tang Sanzang took a step back, lunged forward, rotated his body, and retracted his fist behind him.
"Hey, hey, hey, we agreed to move the mountain, why are you hitting below the belt again?" Sun Wukong yelled.
"Just moving a mountain, no need for complications!"
After saying this, Tang Sanzang's momentum instantly soared to its peak, and he bellowed, "Move the Mountain!"
Boom!
Tang Sanzang threw a punch!
There was a loud bang!
Sun Wukong's eyes widened as he screamed internally, "Has this guy gone mad?
This is the Five Elements Mountain personally transformed by the fingers of Buddha himself!
The seal on top is made from the faith of ten thousand Buddhists, representing the will of all beings, capable of suppressing everything.
If not for these, I would have gotten out on my own...
And he wants to challenge it head-on?"
However, the next moment, the seemingly invincible Five Fingers Mountain, under the fist of the bald thief, actually began to groan painfully, with cracks spreading all over it!
The huge yellow talisman at the top emitted a blinding golden light, like a mini sun trying to radiate its brilliance and power, but the next moment, the sun puffed into ashes.
And the Five Fingers Mountain exploded with a loud bang, all the rocks and debris carried away by the terrifying fist power!
Every mountain behind the Five Fingers Mountain was leveled by the fist power!
With one punch, Tang Sanzang actually turned this mountainous region into a deep, bottomless canyon.
Tang Sanzang casually withdrew his fist, muttering, "Seems I might have used a bit too much force..."
After finishing, Tang Sanzang's eyes narrowed: "Monkey, where are you off to?"
On the other side, Sun Wukong was tiptoeing and preparing to sneak away...
Seeing the terrifying bald thief glance sideways at him, a cold sweat broke out on Sun Wukong's forehead and he swallowed, forcing a dry laugh, "Uh... you won, happy now?"
Saying that, Sun Wukong turned to leave!
"Stop right there!"
Tang Sanzang roared.
Sun Wukong reluctantly turned back and asked, "Big brother, you've already won, what more do you want?"
Tang Sanzang raised a hand, "A duel!"
Sun Wukong finally understood that there would be no leaving today without a fight.
Sun Wukong patted the ancient dust off his body and asked, "Are you sure you want to duel me? Do you know who I am?"
"Who are you?"
"I am the Great Sage Equalling Heaven who caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace four hundred and ninety-nine years ago. Are you scared now?" Sun Wukong said with immense pride, believing that the other party must have heard of his name and would surely be intimidated, thus achieving a victory without a fight.
Facing this bald thief, Sun Wukong wasn't sure about beating him.
Moreover, the other party had helped him escape from his predicament, which meant he owed him a favor and shouldn't strike with lethal intent.
However, what left him speechless was that the bald head shook directly: "Never heard of it."
Sun Wukong narrowed his eyes, "You've never heard of my name, Wukong? Monk, what's your name?"
"Tang Sanzang."
"Oh, Tang San... Huh? Are you Tang Sanzang?
The Tang Sanzang from Great Tang who is journeying to the West to fetch the scriptures?" Sun Wukong suddenly realized something.
Tang Sanzang clearly hadn't read Journey to the West and didn't know that the Tang Sanzang in the monkey's mouth was not him.
He scratched his bald head: "I came from the east, but why should I go west to fetch scriptures?"
This question also stumped Sun Wukong, who scratched his head, "Uh... I don't know either. Anyway, Guanyin told me so."
"And who is Guanyin?" Tang Sanzang pressed on.
Sun Wukong looked suspiciously at the bald man before him: "You don't even know Guanyin? Then you must know Buddha, right?"
Looking at Tang Sanzang's cluelessly cute face, Sun Wukong was at a loss for words: "Do you know the Jade Emperor?"
Tang Sanzang continued to shake his head...
"Erlang Shen Yang Jian, Tai Bai Jin Xing, Kui Mu Lang, Jiao Mu Jiao…" Sun Wukong rattled off a bunch of names, only to see the bald man keep shaking his head.
Sun Wukong felt powerless, just about to let out a wail, "Then who do you know?"
The bald man thought for a moment: "Houtu, Nuwa, Queen Mother of the West, He Bo, Feng Bo, Fu Xi…"
Sun Wukong listened to these names of ancient gods in bewilderment.
Although he was just a mountain monkey, he had heard of these ancient gods.
The problem was he had never seen them!
Even when he fought his way into the Heavenly Palace, he hadn't seen these figures...
Often, he felt that these figures were just mythical stories and not real. He never expected to meet a bald man who knew these people.
However, Sun Wukong's personality obviously didn't care too much about names, otherwise he wouldn't have fought his way into the Heavenly Palace in the first place.
He waved his hand, "Let's not talk about this. Let's talk about fetching the scriptures.
Four hundred and ninety-nine years ago, I caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace, nearly collapsing it. Later, Buddha tricked me and suppressed me here.
Guanyin told me, 'Five hundred years…' Hey, that's not right, it's not time yet.
You came early?
Are you sure you are Tang Sanzang?"
Tang Sanzang nodded: "Ah."
"You came from the east?"
Tang Sanzang thought about it; he indeed had come from the east, so he nodded again: "Ah."
"You're going west?" Sun Wukong asked again.
Tang Sanzang nodded: "Ah."
Sun Wukong said, "To fetch the scriptures?"
Tang Sanzang looked confused: "Not going!"
"Goodbye!"
After saying this, Sun Wukong turned around and left.
"Wait a second…" Tang Sanzang suddenly spoke.
Sun Wukong stopped, impatiently saying, "Are you annoying? Guanyin told me that I was to stay here to escort you to the West to fetch the scriptures. Since you're not going, that means I've essentially completed my task early. Can't we just go our separate ways?"
Tang Sanzang silently held out a hand: "One-on-one challenge."
PS: I'm already on the way to signing a contract. Investors, hurry up.
