Chapter 621 -622: The Path to the Heavenly Dao River (Third Update!)
A powerful fluctuation of strength emanated from the distance, causing the entire floating island to tremble violently. A flash of golden light crossed through Sun Wukong’s eyes as his Void-Breaking Divine Eye advanced to the third phase, the Void-Breaking Starry Eyes phase, looking in the direction from where the power waves were coming.
Facing the ripples stirred up by the power fluctuation, Sun Wukong saw clearly that the source of the disturbance was right at the heart of the Chaos Vortex.
Strands of nine-colored radiance emerged from a hole at the center of the Chaos Vortex, exploding into fierce energy waves that spread out in all directions. With such intense energy waves appearing, something extraordinary must be happening in the hole at the center of the vortex!
“Should I, old Sun, go take a look?”
Sun Wukong hesitated. With such a major event occurring, it was undoubtedly out of the ordinary; perhaps it was the emergence of some formidable Heaven-sent treasure. Having come across it, it would be too regrettable not to take a look!
But if he really went, what if he couldn’t get out in a short time?
Zi Xia was still waiting for him at Flower-Fruit Mountain to accompany her to Spiritual Mountain!
What to do?
To go, or not to go?
Caught in hesitation, Sun Wukong eventually couldn’t restrain his curiosity, “Might as well go take a look. Perhaps there could be a serendipitous encounter? It won’t take long for old Sun to return, the master and the others should be able to think of a way to delay Zi Xia’s return to Spiritual Mountain.”
Comforting himself with that thought, Sun Wukong called out to the Dragon Cat and the Dragon Scorpion, having the two creatures sit upon his shoulders, and then he soared up on a cloud towards the heart of the Chaos Vortex.
“Boss, that’s the very center of the Chaos Vortex we’re talking about. Are we really going there?”
The Dragon Scorpion swallowed hard, feeling a bit apprehensive. Before meeting Sun Wukong, it had never left the floating island where it was born, who could have imagined that one day it would accompany Sun Wukong to a place so close to the center of the Chaos Vortex?
And Sun Wukong was even planning to fly straight into the vortex’s central hole! That was a dreadful place where even floating islands could not survive!
“Of course!”
Sun Wukong answered as if it was only natural, “When the heavens show signs, there must be treasures to find. Since we’ve come upon it, naturally we can’t just miss out on it. Old Sun wouldn’t be content not taking a look!”

“But…”
The Dragon Scorpion wanted to persuade him further, but was held back by the Dragon Cat, whose telepathic voice rang in its ears, “Don’t say any more, once the boss makes a decision, no one can change his mind! Following the boss will definitely not be a loss, just relax and follow along!”
With even the Dragon Cat saying this, the Dragon Scorpion stopped trying to argue but still couldn’t help feeling a little uneasy.
“What mighty wind power!”
The deeper they flew, the stronger the energy blasts that met them head-on became. Sun Wukong felt they were already comparable to the winds that the Banana Leaf Fan once produced in his past life—a fan that had blown him away for a hundred and eight thousand li.
It was only because Sun Wukong’s cultivation strength had far surpassed his past self that he could make headway against the wind and enter the central region of the Chaos Vortex, let alone delve into it to find out what lay within.
“With such powerful winds, ordinary people would have no way of entering to check out the situation, heh, definitely some great treasure is being born, old Sun’s luck is really good!”
Feeling secretly overjoyed, Sun Wukong exerted all his strength to activate the Chaos Primordial Force, staring at the fierce energy gales as he accelerated towards the central hole of the vortex.
“Zizz~!”
“Crackle and pop!”
Above the hole, Sun Wukong looked down into it, only to see bolts of lightning and sparks flickering inside the hole, looking extremely intimidating.
“Boss, are we really going in there? We’re going to get fried!”
Dragon Scorpion’s fur stood up in alarm as it stared down at the massive hole where lightning raged, cold sweat pouring down its back.
“Boss, maybe we should reconsider? It really seems very dangerous in here… Hey, hey, what are you doing?”
Dragon Cat also started to chime in with concern, but before it could finish, it saw Sun Wukong leap into the huge hole, causing it to cry out in alarm.
“Fortune favors the bold! How can one possibly find precious treasures if they’re scared of wolves ahead and tigers behind? If you’re still afraid, just hide in the imitation Qiankun Bag. I’ll call you when I need you!”
Sun Wukong snorted coldly. Like receiving a pardon, Dragon Cat and Dragon Scorpion hurriedly turned into two streaks of light and dived into the imitation Qiankun Bag. They didn’t have a Chaotic Divine Body like Sun Wukong to withstand the thunderous electrical strikes—getting hit by one or two would certainly be more than they could handle!
“Whoosh!”
Braving the fierce wind, Sun Wukong charged into the hole, diving into the sea of lightning. Instantly, several bolts of lightning struck from all directions, hitting him squarely. A tingling sensation spread through him immediately, and Sun Wukong grimaced.
“What terrifying lightning, nearly as formidable as the abandoned heavens’ lightning! What kind of place is this, to have such fearsome thunderous power?”
Sun Wukong was inwardly astounded. He had only felt such powerful lightning during the heavenly abandonment thunder calamity on the Ascend to Heaven Platform, and he hadn’t expected to encounter it again here!
In the center of this Chaos Vortex, there must be exotic treasures!
This thought became increasingly certain in Sun Wukong’s mind. He reached into his ear and pulled out the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod, pouring the strength of the Heaven-Breaking Domain into it. The Ruyi Divine Armor emerged from within his body, cloaking him in a layer of flame armor that spread to the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod. Charging deeper into the thunder, he swung the rod and deflected the incoming bolts of lightning one after another.
Finally, after an indeterminate amount of time, Sun Wukong made it through the layer of lightning. The scene before his eyes abruptly cleared, and he found himself surrounded by an incredibly vast space with no visible end. At the limits of his vision, a river that seemed to have neither a known origin nor destination flowed through the Endless Void.
That was, the Heavenly Dao River!
This was actually a conduit to the Heavenly Dao River!
Boom!
A loud collision of power came from behind. Sun Wukong turned to look and saw several figures fiercely clashing. Every impact generated waves of immense strength that rippled out towards the lightning above.
Sun Wukong realized the energy fluctuations that had emerged from the center of the Chaos Vortex were caused by these combative figures.
Who in the world were they, and why were they so strong?
Sun Wukong couldn’t determine the true strength of these people, not even when he activated his Void-Breaking Divine Eye to its Void-Breaking Starry Eyes state. However, one thing was certain: their strength was enormous, far surpassing any enemy Sun Wukong had previously faced. It felt as if Tathagata Buddha was like a child compared to these figures, totally incomparable!
