Such a vast area, such thick ice, the entire Flower-Fruit Mountain.

What a ruthless character!

Sun Wukong had no idea that the Goldfish Demon could even freeze the Tongtian River.Full novel: Journey to the West: My Anti-Trope System — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

Looking at the large ice hole smashed into the ground, Sun Wukong reached out and touched it, laughing, “Don’t tell me, the water below isn’t cold; it’s warm.”

“Really?”

“I’ll try it too…”

“Me too…”

After a group of monkeys touched the water and found it quite comfortable, several monkeys took the lead and jumped in with a “splash.”

“Wow… It’s so comfortable!

The water here is much warmer than outside.

Come on, everyone jump in and play!”

“That’s right, everyone jump in the water and play…”

Upon hearing this, the monkeys jumped into the water one after another.

However, after only a few dozen jumped in, the small ice hole became crowded.

Sun Wukong looked at the monkeys, finding it difficult to smash the ice hole with rocks.

An inch-thick ice, even for a group of demonic monkeys, was extremely arduous to break.

“Move aside a bit, watch me open a big hole for you.”

Listening to Sun Wukong, the monkeys quickly retreated a dozen steps, cheering and shouting, “Go, Stone Monkey!”

“Go, make a big hole so we can all jump in and warm up…”

“Let’s all warm up together…”

Sun Wukong nodded, raising his right hand with force.

“Fifty—Fist!”

Bang…

Sun Wukong punched the ground, and the ice within several thousand meters directly sank.

Crack… Crack… Crack…

Subsequently, the ice on the sea surface began to shatter one after another.

Whoosh…

After a sound, the entire several-thousand-meter ice sheet, originally one piece, was directly shaken, cracking into large and small chunks everywhere.

Without the support of a complete large ice body, the monkey group also fell into the water one after another.

The monkeys were initially shocked by Sun Wukong’s punch.

Then…

They fell into the sea and sobered up a bit.

“Stone Monkey is invincible!”

“Stone Monkey is amazing!”

“Stone Monkey is mighty… Stone Monkey is domineering… Stone Monkey is awesome…”

For a moment, the monkey group began to shout excitedly.

In the sky, seeing this, Guanyin fell silent.

She thought to herself, “What a Stone Monkey with innate divine strength.”

However, Guanyin didn’t take it to heart; although the Stone Monkey had always shown great strength.

But the Stone Monkey couldn’t use magic!

If he couldn’t use magic, he couldn’t break the ice seal up Flower-Fruit Mountain!

Then he still had to obediently go and find a master.

In the East Sea Dragon Palace.

The Old Dragon King looked at his daughter and asked, “I heard them say that today you went to Flower-Fruit Mountain to play with a Stone Monkey?”

Ao Xiaomeng nodded and said, “Yes, that Stone Monkey is so clever, the ideas he comes up with are especially fun.”

The Old Dragon King nodded and said, “Don’t go to Flower-Fruit Mountain for a while.”

“Flower-Fruit Mountain is not safe recently.

A Goldfish Demon ran out from somewhere, and that demon is very powerful.

You can tell by how Flower-Fruit Mountain was directly frozen.”

Ao Xiaomeng was stunned when she heard this.

Then she thought for a moment and asked, “Then why didn’t you stop him, Father King?

Can’t you defeat him either?”

The Old Dragon King shook his head and said, “It’s not that I don’t want to stop him, but this Goldfish Demon has powerful divine abilities.

To break his magic, one must learn advanced divine abilities.”

“Those advanced divine abilities are the Thirty-Six Transformations of Tiangang and the Seventy-two Transformations of Earthly Fiends.”

“The Thirty-Six Transformations of Tiangang include: Manipulating Creation, Reversing Yin and Yang, Shifting Stars and Changing Dippers, Turning Back Heaven and Returning Moon…”

“The Seventy-two Transformations of Earthly Fiends include: Communicating with the Underworld, Driving Gods, Carrying Mountains, Forbidding Water, Borrowing Wind, Spreading Fog, Praying for Clear Skies, Praying for Rain, Sitting on Fire…”

Ao Xiaomeng listened, stunned, then immediately asked, “Then, Father King, who knows the Thirty-Six Transformations of Tiangang and the Seventy-two Transformations of Earthly Fiends you mentioned?”

“Where are they?

If we find someone who knows them, can we make Flower-Fruit Mountain like it was before?”

Although Ao Xiaomeng was already a thousand years old, the Dragon race has a very long lifespan.

A thousand years old… she was still a child, not very mature, and still quite naive.

The Old Dragon King smiled and said, “In Western Niuhe Continent, Fangcun Mountain, Xieyue Sanxing Cave, there is a highly skilled individual comparable to the Jade Emperor and Buddha.

This highly skilled individual knows these two divine abilities.”

“However, even if we were to go and find, or invite someone, that is something the monkeys of Flower-Fruit Mountain need to do.

It’s not our place to interfere.”

Ao Xiaomeng silently memorized these words, and then… without any accidents, she would definitely pass these words to Sun Wukong.

If Sun Wukong wasn’t a transmigrator, and proficient in schemes and anti-schemes, then this wave of scheming would definitely entrap him.

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, the Old Dragon King smiled and walked away.

The Old Dragon King implied: Stone Monkey, hurry up, my Sea-Stabilizing Divine Needle has been impatiently waiting for you for a long time.

Water Curtain Cave.

At this moment, inside the Water Curtain Cave, it was truly a scene of billowing smoke…

To be fair, these monkeys were all refined, and lighting a fire was a simple operation for them.

After all, they could easily manage traps much more difficult than lighting a fire.

But…

Flower-Fruit Mountain was sealed by heavy snow, and all the firewood was wet, making it very difficult to burn.

Sun Wukong was also helplessly scratching his head.

At this moment, he had a powerful strength, but Sun Wukong truly couldn’t use magic to light a fire.

After all, as a modern person, having transmigrated only a few days ago, without cultivation methods, he couldn’t even grasp the principle of using magic.

But luckily…

Bai Jingjing returned.

“Cough… What are you doing?

Setting fire… or is it on fire?” Bai Jingjing was choked by the thick smoke as soon as she entered.

“We’re roasting fish, but we can’t light a fire.

The firewood is too wet,” Sun Wukong replied, feeling a bit frustrated.

Bai Jingjing chuckled when she heard this, laughing, “You have so many monkeys, and not a single one knows magic?”

Upon hearing this, the monkeys scratched their heads, looking bewildered.

They had never encountered such things; how could they know magic?

“No one ever taught us; how could we know!”

“Exactly, exactly, you say that as if you know…”

“Hey, can’t you fly?

You must know magic, right?”

“Quick, help us light a fire!”

The monkeys looked as if they had seen a savior.

Sun Wukong’s eyes also lit up.

That’s right, even if this girl hadn’t apprenticed under Zixia yet, she definitely knew magic.

At least lighting a fire wouldn’t be a problem.

Bai Jingjing looked at the monkeys, waved her hand, and said, “Come, come, everyone stand aside.

I’ll blow away the smoke here first.”

As she spoke, Bai Jingjing mumbled something, and a seamless wind began to blow within the Water Curtain Cave.

As the wind gradually grew stronger, the thick smoke was mostly dispersed.

Then, with a wave of Bai Jingjing’s hand, several fireballs struck a dozen piles of firewood.

Boom…

Pile after pile of firewood began to burn.

To be honest, it was only because Sun Wukong and the group of monkeys were extraordinary; otherwise, they would have definitely been choked to death by the thick smoke in the Water Curtain Cave.

The smoke just now was so dense that one couldn’t distinguish people from animals five meters away.
