Creak, creak, creak~

Numerous bright-red peaches hung in the immortal peach forest. Those monkeys ran through the trees, calling out with joy.

“Now, us monkeys are the kings of the Flowerfruit Mountain. No one would dare to bully us!”

“All of this is the Great King’s efforts!”

“That’s true. Our Great King is wise and suave!”

The monkeys chattered. They would occasionally glance at a tall figure faraway with looks of reverence in their eyes.

Hua, hua, hua~

The ten thousand foot waterfall rained down. There was a huge rock that jutted out at the top of the waterfall and a figure was sitting there with his hands resting on his knee caps.

Breath in, breath out…

His chest heaved at regular intervals, and spiritual qi in the surroundings was forcefully gathered. The spiritual qi was incomparably thick and transformed into a corporeal spirit cloud which was breathed in by that figure as he absorbed all the spiritual energy within.

That figure was surrounded by mist, s.h.i.+mmering in and out of existence and resembled an immortal. It was truly extraordinary to look at him.

Hu…

A breath of turbid air was expelled. Feng Lin opened his eyes and when he saw the monkeys playing around in the immortal peach forest, a smile appeared on his face.

Earlier, the war against the three demon races had already ended.

History didn’t repeat. Under the leaders.h.i.+p of the new monkey king—Feng Lin, the monkey tribe dominated the demonic tigers, pythons, and eagles. They completely swept through the Flowerfruit Mountain with impunity and became the new tyrants.

From now on, no demonic races would be able to threaten the monkey tribe.

Po~

An invisible shackle seemed to be broken.

The true meaning of the monkey king was being digested as a strange feeling welled up in Feng Lin’s heart. Warm currents coursed through his body.

He felt that he was in a miraculous state where he was as one with the heavens. His spiritual force expanded immensely. The entire Flowerfruit Mountain seemed to have become his domain as he felt an inseparable closeness with it. Any sort of changes in the Flowerfruit Mountain were all clearly captured within his perception.

All the spiritual qi was also within his perception and he could control them freely.

Was this the true meaning of the monkey king?

The Flowerfruit Mountain Domain!

A look of surprise appeared on Feng Lin’s face. But all of this was within logic.

Since he was a king, a king would naturally have his own domain.

Within his domain, he was the absolute overlord.

And the domain of the monkey king was undoubtedly the Flowerfruit Mountain!

So, this was the ability of the Monkey King Gene.

The Monkey King of the Flowerfruit Mountain!

His Heart Monkey Force could affect the materialistic world now.

After his Monkey King Gene awakened, the power of the Heart Monkey Force underwent a qualitative transformation and entered its high-level stage.

At the place where he stood, his Heart Monkey Force would automatically spread out and the area it enveloped would naturally become a domain that solely belonged to Feng Lin. The wind, fire, lightning, thunder—all sorts of energy within the domain would be under his control. He could use them freely.

But right now, he was still in the illusion-scape. He had no idea how this would work if he was in the real world.

Within the mythological illusion realm, Feng Lin could clearly sense that the gigantic Flowerfruit Mountain had truly become his territory.

With a wave of his hand, and in the span of a breath, he could control the spiritual qi here fully!

(So this is the case.)

Feng Lin had a sudden sense of enlightenment.

With no immortals in the mountains, the monkeys proclaimed themselves kings!

He had already accomplished this step. Next, what he needed to do was to cross the sea and search for the Fangcun Mountain to seek out his dao!

“Great king, what are you thinking about?” An aged voice interrupted his thoughts.

Feng Lin turned his head over only to see the through-armed ape walking over.

“I’m thinking about what the eagle king said before it died. It is an avian beast and must definitely have seen the outside world. He said that when there are no immortals in the mountains, the monkeys proclaim themselves kings,” Feng Lin languidly spoke. “I feel very curious about what the outside world is like. Is there a divine mountain? It’s rumored that the divine mountain can grant one longevity and immortality.”

The old monkey laughed. “Great King, it’s good that you are thinking so far ahead; your dao heart has developed. Now, out of the five types of lifeforms, only three types are out of Yama King’s control.”

This familiar words and similar scenes caused Feng Lin to be bewildered. Was this a scene brought on by the development of his dao heart?

He couldn’t help but ask, “What are the three types of lifeforms?”

The old monkey replied, “They are buddhas, immortals, and saints. They can evade reincarnation and are basically immortal as they share the same lifespan as the heavens and earth.

Feng Lin continued, “Where do these three types of lifeforms reside in?”

The through-armed ape replied, “Some are roaming the mortal world. They might live in obscure places like ancient caves or immortal mountains.”

After hearing this, Feng Lin felt joy in his heart. “I shall descend the Flowerfruit Mountain tomorrow and cross the sea to explore the world. I will definitely search for one of those three types of lifeforms and learn the art of immortality to evade the calamity that is the Yama King.”

As this sentence sounded out, a light seemed to appear in Feng Lin’s mind. All his confusion was cleared and his heart was as clear as gla.s.s.

Hahaha!

Feng Lin stood up and began laughing uproariously.

As the saying went: nurturing the spiritual root would allow the origin energy to flow; cultivate one’s heart and temperament and the great dao shall be born!

He completely understood how should he walk his future path!

So what even if he became the monkey king? He was only the monkey king of this mountain, one of the demon kings that had ever existed in the Flowerfruit Mountain.

Once his lifespan came to an end, no matter how great his achievements were in life, he would only end up being a speck of dirt at the very end.

Only by becoming Sun Wukong would he be able to master the seventy-two transformations and roam through heavens and earth with a single somersault on his golden cloud, sharing longevity with the heavens and earth.

Only then would he truly be the monkey king of the Flowerfruit Mountain. When one’s heart and temperament were cultivated, only then would the great dao be born!

Next, what he needed to do was to temper his dao heart.

When he thought of this, Feng Lin spoke loudly, “Little ones, quickly prepare fruits and a boat. I shall descend the mountain tomorrow and cross the sea to explore the world. I will definitely find one of the three types of lifeforms and learn the art of immortality from them, evading the calamity of the Yama King.”

“Great!”

“When a person attains the dao, the chickens and dogs they own shall ascend to heaven as well. We would be able to enjoy eternal life along with the Great King!”

“May the Great King live forever!”

The monkeys all prostrated themselves upon hearing this and felt joy from the bottom of their hearts.

For a time, the sounds of excitement echoed through the Flowerfruit Mountain. The commotion was so huge that it was like a volcano had exploded, causing the world to shudder.

But as he stood among the crowd, Feng Lin felt a deep sense of fatigue in his heart.

Without realizing it, he had already stayed for too long in the illusionary realm.

Even if one spent ten thousand years here, the time outside would only amount to that of a fleeting dream. However, his heart would still feel weary if he spent too much time in here.

(It’s time to wake up.)

Feng Lin had an understanding in his heart. Although the path of the monkey king was only half-way explored, after all, he had just awakened the Monkey King Gene and there was still a long path ahead of him. There was no need for him to be hasty.

He could always come by again next time to probe the secrets further.

He no longer hesitated. He sat cross-legged and entered a state of meditation, forgetting everything. His state of heart was like a calm lake.

Awaken, awaken, awaken…

His voice rang out from the depth of his heart, echoing in his mind. Faint ripples appeared on the lake in his heart.

The illusions were broken and the scene before Feng Lin crumbled away. At the next moment, he discovered that he was sitting inside his room and there were huge changes to his life information.
