Chapter 86 Monkey King Becomes Xu Xian and Collects Treasures
Xu Xian returned to Lingtai Fangcun Mountain and paid his respects to the Bodhi Patriarch.
The Bodhi Patriarch looked at Xu Xian and said with a smile, "You are a much more well-behaved child than I expected."
Xu Xian chuckled and then chatted with his master about his experiences over the years.
Upon hearing this, Patriarch Bodhi clapped his hands and laughed heartily, "You child, you actually married Zhulong's disciple and even the Third Holy Mother? Your arrangements for Buzhou Mountain are also very appropriate, excellent!"
Xu Xian felt slightly ashamed after being praised by the Bodhi Patriarch.
He's not one to be content with his lot; it's just that the time isn't right yet.
Xu Xian chatted with Bodhi Patriarch about some interesting things happening in the outside world before finally getting down to business: "Master, I have found a disciple for you."
"Um?"
"A naturally born stone monkey in the Flower and Fruit Mountain of Aolai, a small country in the Eastern Sheng Shenzhou."
Bodhi Patriarch closed his eyes and surveyed the three realms.
After a moment, Patriarch Bodhi smiled and said, "Indeed, there is a bond between master and disciple, which is very good."
After telling the information about Monkey King to Patriarch Bodhi, Xu Xian left his master's place and went to find his fellow disciples.
He distributed the dishes prepared by Bai Suzhen and the Third Holy Mother to his fellow disciples, and chatted with everyone, feeling quite at ease.
Several days later, strange noises suddenly came from the tree branches outside the door.
Xu Xian's mind shifted, realizing that Monkey King had arrived.
He opened the door, looked up at the treetops, and said with a smile, "Junior brother, you've arrived."
Monkey King leaped down from the tree, stepped forward, bowed, and said, "Senior brother, I've come to become your disciple."
Xu Xian smiled and said, "Come in with me."
Monkey King straightened his clothes and followed Xu Xian into the Taoist temple, where he indeed saw a mysterious immortal dressed in a Taoist robe.
Monkey King prostrated himself, kowtowing countless times: "Master! Master! Your disciple sincerely pays homage! Sincerely pays homage!"
The Bodhi Patriarch asked Monkey King his name and hometown, and Monkey King answered truthfully.
The rest of the story didn't deviate too much.
The Bodhi Patriarch bestowed upon the Monkey King the name Sun Wukong and instructed him to cultivate here.
Monkey King spends his days preaching, practicing calligraphy, and burning incense. In his spare time, he sweeps the floor, tends the garden, and prunes the flowers and trees.
Seven years have passed in the blink of an eye.
For seven years, Xu Xian has stayed in the Slanting Moon and Three Stars Cave and has never left.
Monkey King also trusted this senior brother very much, and the two had a very good relationship.
On this day, Xu Xian summoned Monkey King and said with a smile, "Junior brother, today you have a great opportunity."
"Senior brother, what opportunity did you have?"
"Master is giving a sermon today; go and listen. After the sermon is finished, you must—"
Upon hearing this, Monkey King bowed and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother, thank you very much, Senior Brother."
Xu Xian patted Monkey King's head and said with a smile, "You may go now, I'm leaving."
Monkey King, puzzled, asked, "Why did you leave, Senior Brother?"
"I have revealed my master's secrets and deserve to be punished. I am no longer allowed to listen to his lectures here."
Upon hearing this, Monkey King wept and said, "I will never forget my senior brother's great kindness."
Xu Xian patted the monkey's head again, then rode the Jade Terrace on a golden cloud and drifted away.
Just like in the story, Monkey King learned the Great Celestial Technique and the Seventy-Two Transformations, Somersault Cloud, and the Law of Heaven and Earth from Patriarch Bodhi.
In addition, Monkey King was a naturally born stone monkey, who was omniscient and had mastered many techniques on his own.
He actually jumped from an ordinary spiritual stone monkey to a top-level expert of level 77!
Xu Xian rode away on a cloud, not returning to Buzhou Mountain, but instead heading to the West Sea and the North Sea respectively.
The time has come; he must obtain the towering white jade pillars of the West Sea and the purple-gold beams that span the seas of the North Sea.
Thanks to the merits of the South Sea Dragon King, the West Sea Dragon King and the North Sea Dragon King held Xu Xian in extremely high esteem.
Xu Xian acquired these two extremely precious magical treasures without much effort.

Congratulations to player Xu Xian for acquiring [Jia Hai Zi Jin Liang] (Red)
Xu Xian looked at his three treasures and murmured, "The Iron Pole of Free Will is for the Six-Eared Macaque, the White Jade Pillar Supporting the Sky is for the Long-Armed Ape, and the Purple Gold Beam Spanning the Sea is for Wuzhiqi—with these three divine monkeys assisting us, who can break through this calamity?"
With this in mind, Xu Xian rode on a cloud, heading towards the Six-Eared Macaque's location.
When they reached the sky above Flower Fruit Mountain, Xu Xian was shaken to his core, and the voice of the Bodhi Patriarch echoed in his mind.
"Disciple, don't go any further. Your junior brother Wukong will cause a great disaster in the future. You need to take care of him."
Xu Xian immediately cupped his hands in greeting: "Yes!"
When Xu Xian opened his eyes, he suddenly found a stubborn stone in his hand.
"This is the beginning of time, the first stubborn stone born from chaos. Please accept it, my disciple."
Congratulations to player Xu Xian for acquiring the [Chaotic Stone] (Colorful)!
Xu Xian looked at the chaotic stone in his hand and was filled with emotion.
As expected of Bodhi Patriarch, he was indeed generous.
A gift given casually turned out to be a rare, high-quality gem.
"In this world, most creatures behave exactly the same as in the original story."
"But Bodhi Patriarch was different."
"Even the slightest deviation in my behavior could prompt Bodhi Patriarch to do many things that I never expected."
"As expected of a great master, truly formidable!"
Xu Xian praised it a few times, then turned and headed straight back to Flower Fruit Mountain.
At the entrance of the Water Curtain Cave, Xu Xian revealed his true form.
It was radiant with golden light and filled with auspicious energy.
This caused countless little monkeys to bow down and kneel in worship, calling him an immortal.
Xu Xian smiled and waved his hand, saying, "I am not an immortal, but your Monkey King's senior brother."
"
The monkeys exclaimed, "The immortal is actually our Great King, our senior brother, and also our Great King!"
"Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty!"
The monkeys welcomed Xu Xian into the Water Curtain Cave and offered him fine wine and fruit.
Xu Xian tasted it and praised it repeatedly.
Then, he floated to the top of Flower Fruit Mountain and activated the small space with his magic.
A moment later, the Weaver Girl appeared before Xu Xian.
"Sister Weaver Girl~"
"Don't tease me. With your current level of cultivation, how could I possibly be worthy of such a position?"
Xu Xian laughed and said, "What are you saying, Sister Weaver Girl? How can our relationship be judged by cultivation level?"
"Heh, you certainly know how to talk. What did you summon me here for this time?"
Xu Xian took out the Realgar White Sword and the Chaos Stone.
"The Weaver Girl once said that if there were other treasures, they could upgrade this sword's level. What does the Weaver Girl think of this item?"
The Weaver Girl held the Chaos Stone, examined it briefly, and exclaimed in surprise, "The very first stone created at the beginning of time? How did you obtain such a treasure?"
Xu Xian didn't explain, but only asked, "If the essence of this stubborn stone were melted into the sword, would it increase the sword's power?"
The Weaver Girl's eyes sparkled with excitement: "Of course! But this stubborn stone is of such a high level that even with my abilities, I cannot perfectly forge it. If you want to obtain a true treasure sword, you'll probably have to seek help from Laozi in the Tushita Palace. A trip to his alchemy furnace will naturally result in a perfect forging."
Xu Xian nodded and said, "In that case, please ask Sister Weaver Girl to make a move."
"Good! Remember Lao Tzu's Eight Trigrams Furnace."
The Weaver Girl gave another instruction: "Get to work immediately!"
This time it took an extremely long time.
It took the Weaver Girl three days to barely manage to integrate the stubborn stone into the Realgar White Sword.
"Phew, it's done!"
The Weaver Girl returned the sword, smiling, and said, "I suddenly have a feeling that you'll become an extraordinary deity."
"Thank you, Weaver Girl!"
Xu Xian saw the Weaver Girl off and examined the precious sword in his hand.
Congratulations to player Xu Xian for acquiring the [Taiyi Sword] (Red)
"Heh, now all that's left is for them to wreak havoc in Heaven."
Xu Xian lived on Flower Fruit Mountain for a period of time.
He practiced his spiritual cultivation every day, and while he was at it, he would watch the monkeys practice their martial arts, which he found very enjoyable.
One day, Xu Xian was enjoying some fruit when he suddenly heard a booming voice from outside: "My children, I'm back!"
