Chapter 631 -632: Surprise or Not, Unexpected or Expected (Second Update!)
While Sun Wukong was searching for an opportunity to escape, Ran Deng Buddha had already continued towards Heart-Locking Pond on his cloud, and soon he descended at the edge, looking into the pond, his eyes suddenly popped wide open.
“Where are they? Where did those two women go?”
Ran Deng Buddha was greatly alarmed in his heart, “The array barrier is still in place; with their abilities, it’s impossible for them to escape on their own! It must have been that demon monkey! That demon monkey must have rescued them!”
Whoosh!

An extremely faint sound of tearing through the air rang beside his ear. Ran Deng Buddha abruptly turned his head and saw Sun Wukong standing ten feet away, looking at him with a cold, mocking smile.
“Sun Wukong, it really is you!”
“It’s your old Sun, how about that? Surprised or not, expect the unexpected?”
Sun Wukong’s lips curled into a taunting cold smile, yet he was already clutching two wicks of lamp wicks, which he had just swiftly taken out from the Sarcophagus Lamp. However, at the same time, he had left an identical pair of wicks inside the lamp with a transformation from one of his hairs, for the time being, he didn’t want Ran Deng Buddha to realize he had already taken the lamp wick.
“Where did you hide those two little wenches?”
Ran Deng Buddha stared at Sun Wukong with a face full of murderous intent, then glanced again at the Heart-Locking Pond, “How did you rescue them?”
Around Heart-Locking Pond, Ran Deng Buddha had meticulously set up an array barrier. Even with Sun Wukong’s abilities, it seemed impossible to Ran Deng Buddha that he could break the array barrier without harming Qing Xia Fairy and Zi Xia Fairy and rescue them.
Yet the fact was that Sun Wukong had already rescued the two women, and the array barrier had not shown any damage. How exactly did this demon monkey do it?
“Want to know?”
Sun Wukong arched an eyebrow, seeing Ran Deng Buddha nodding, he snorted disdainfully, “Why should your old Sun tell you?”
“Bastard! Demon monkey, don’t be too arrogant! This is the Sukhavati Realm, not your Flower-Fruit Mountain!”
Ran Deng Buddha was furious inside, a flash of light in his hand, and the Demon-Subduing Pestle appeared in his palm, pointing at Sun Wukong as he shouted fiercely.
“I know, the Sukhavati Realm, it’s not your old Sun’s first time here!”
Sun Wukong shrugged nonchalantly with an indifferent expression on his face, “Ran Deng, if your old Sun was afraid of your Buddhist Sect, he would not have come!”
As he spoke, his gaze suddenly turned cold, “You actually thought to use Bone-Eroding Worms, these poisonous creatures, against Zi Xia. Your old Sun will definitely not let you off today!”
Reaching into his ear, Sun Wukong drew out the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod and at the same time, quietly slipped the lamp wick into the replica Qiankun Bag. So what if this place is the Sukhavati Realm, and so what if Ran Deng Buddha is the Slaying One Corpse Merit Saint? Today he was going to thoroughly teach this baldy a lesson, avenge Zi Xia, and vent his anger!
“Baldy, take this from your old Sun!”
He struck as soon as he said he would, without any hesitation. Sun Wukong swung his ruyi golden-hooped rod fiercely at Ran Deng Ancient Buddha, engulfing the rod with chaos fire. Although he did not use the Heaven-Breaking Stick Technique, the power of the Heaven-Breaking Domain had already been infused into the strike.
“Sun Wukong, do you think I am afraid of you?” Ran Deng Ancient Buddha said.
Ran Deng Ancient Buddha was initially shocked, not expecting Sun Wukong to dare to take the initiative to attack. He then became furious and swung his Demon-Subduing Pestle to block the ruyi golden-hooped rod.
This was already the second time that Sun Wukong had brazenly entered the Sukhavati Realm. The barriers and prohibitions intended to block outsiders seemed like nothing in front of Sun Wukong. Ran Deng Ancient Buddha could not understand how Sun Wukong had rescued Zi Xia Fairy and Qing Xia Fairy, as the barrier formation near the Heart-Locking Pond was clearly intact!
“Boom!”
When the ruyi golden-hooped rod collided with the Demon-Subduing Pestle, a mighty force suddenly pushed Ran Deng Ancient Buddha back several steps. Before he could recover from his shock, a barrage of rod shadows pummeled him, forcing Ran Deng Ancient Buddha to muster all his strength and utilize his domain power, infusing it into the Demon-Subduing Pestle.
The shadows of the ruyi golden-hooped rod and the power emitted by the Demon-Subduing Pestle repeatedly collided. Sun Wukong seemed like a streak of golden light circling around Ran Deng Ancient Buddha, attacking relentlessly. The speed and strength of the attacks greatly surprised Ran Deng Ancient Buddha.
“How has this demon monkey’s combat power increased so much?” Ran Deng Ancient Buddha thought.
Sun Wukong had not advanced to the realm of a Heavenly Dao Saint, which Ran Deng Buddha could ascertain at a glance. He had only managed to slay his Three Corpses, but his combat power had increased many times over since the battle at the Heavenly Court!
Clearly not a Heavenly Dao Saint, yet his mastery of domain power and manipulation of law power were by no means inferior, and his strength was monstrously enhanced. This demon monkey was too abnormal, abnormally bizarre!
“Sarcophagus Lamp, Netherworld Ghost Fire!” Ran Deng Buddha exclaimed.
The chaos fire swirling around the ruyi golden-hooped rod made Ran Deng Buddha very uncomfortable. He had to not only withstand the immense destructive power in the shadows of the rod but also divert some strength to prevent the chaos fire from spreading and burning him. After a dozen or so exchanges, he found himself at a disadvantage, which was an utter humiliation for Ran Deng Buddha!
With a low shout in his heart, Ran Deng Buddha spurred the Sarcophagus Lamp, his object of enlightenment and one of the four great innate lamps. He hadn’t properly refined it in the past, but since it had been countered by Sun Wukong’s chaos fire during the battle at the Heavenly Court, Ran Deng Buddha had specifically re-forged the Sarcophagus Lamp over the years.
The Netherworld Ghost Fire, still housed within the Sarcophagus Lamp, had been augmented with Buddha Spiritual Power. The Netherworld Ghost Fire, a cold fire, had yin, cold attributes, while the Buddha Spiritual Energy was more yang, robust – specifically countering ghostly energies. These two conflicting powers, under Ran Deng Buddha’s guidance, unexpectedly merged together, significantly enhancing the newly-formed Netherworld Ghost Fire.
Though chaos fire was revered as the source of all fires, capable of countering all other fires in the world, it held no significant advantage against this newly formed Netherworld Ghost Fire, similar to when Sun Wukong faced the dark red flames of the Fire-Winged Bird on the floating islands above the Chaos Vortex.
“It has been years, and Ran Deng, this bald donkey, has considerably increased his strength! Even the power of the Netherworld Ghost Fire has increased!” Sun Wukong thought to himself with a shudder.
As he progressed, others had not remained idle either. Ran Deng Buddha’s strength was definitely incomparable to that of Tathagata Buddha. Since his combat power had increased so much, what level could Tathagata Buddha, who was even more formidable than Ran Deng Buddha, have reached?
Facing Tathagata Buddha with his current strength would probably result in more losses than victories, let alone facing both together!
He must end the battle before Tathagata Buddha arrives!
“Chaos Clock!” Sun Wukong thought to himself.
With a thought, Sun Wukong summoned the Chaos Clock, striking it hard with the ruyi golden-hooped rod. Immediately, visible sound waves surged towards Ran Deng Buddha.
