"Absorbing the essence of the sun and moon, enjoying the creation of heaven and earth."
The voice of the Cyan Blue Demon God, filled with sighs, echoed in Yang Qifeng's mind.
The voice was filled with sighs, like a long note that lingered for three days, never fading.
"Such a creation, I wonder if it is a blessing or a curse?" At the end, the Cyan Blue Demon God said a vague sentence.
"How do you interpret this?" Yang Qifeng, who was in a state of jealousy towards the monkey, felt puzzled upon hearing the Cyan Blue Demon God's words and quickly asked.
"Identity of a Yuan Son? I have already introduced it to you. Summarize what a Yuan Son is," the Cyan Blue Demon God did not answer directly but asked in a testing tone.
Yang Qifeng did not rush to answer but pondered for a moment, recalling various things he had heard, and then said solemnly, "A Yuan is also called a Minor Yuan. One Yuan is 129,600 years, and the term 'Minor Yuan' is not a general term but has detailed records, known as a Yuan."
"One Yuan consists of twelve Hui, each Hui being 18,000 years, making a total of 96,000 years for one Yuan."
"Compared to a Hui Yuan, a Yuan is slightly inferior, but the difference between 96,000 years and one Hui Yuan is not too great," Yang Qifeng answered.
After explaining the Yuan, Yang Qifeng paused at the part about the Yuan Son. The meaning of Yuan Son was not hard to guess; based on the literal meaning, it could be explained.
"Son" refers to all descendants!
And "Yuan" is a term for time. In simple terms, within this Yuan of 96,000 years, the stone monkey is the son of heaven, closer than a biological son, and everything he does is smooth sailing.
After summarizing, Yang Qifeng answered solemnly, "The son of heaven."
All the explanations ultimately boiled down to these few words.
"Very well said, he is the son of heaven," the Cyan Blue Demon God agreed, but then his tone changed, and he continued, "Look at that monkey, with his position and the thick favor of heaven, it's so good it's almost scary."
"Golden Immortal position, the resonance of heaven and earth, directly formed and bestowed upon him. Such a good thing is rare even in ancient times."
"Does the monkey already have the Golden Immortal position?" Yang Qifeng, whose knowledge and strength were far inferior to the Cyan Blue Demon God, could not see any difference in the monkey and felt a sense of profound mystery.
However, since it was confirmed that they were in the world of Journey to the West, Yang Qifeng thought the monkey's position would be the Victorious Fighting Buddha. But since the journey had not yet begun, the position of Victorious Fighting Buddha seemed far off. How could he have a position already?
"Close your eyes, I will help you," the Cyan Blue Demon God's tone became more relaxed, and he addressed Yang Qifeng as "you" in their conversation.
Yang Qifeng tightly closed his eyes, not knowing what the Cyan Blue Demon God was doing. When the Cyan Blue Demon God told him to open his eyes again, Yang Qifeng quickly opened his eyes.
A faint blue, gentle light flashed in his eyes, and Yang Qifeng saw the monkey struggling in the flames.
At first, with his mortal eyes, Yang Qifeng saw the monkey in a pitiful state, struggling bitterly in the fire. But now, the monkey did not look as miserable as before. His bones and meridians were constantly being washed by a force, and in the flames, he was refining his body. Considering the effects of some elixirs, it was clear that the monkey was cultivating an indestructible body.
"Look up! The Qi Divination Technique won't last long," the Cyan Blue Demon God reminded.
Yang Qifeng nodded lightly, indicating he understood, and shifted his gaze to the monkey's head.
Above the monkey's head, a spectacular scene unfolded. Five-colored light flowed in streams, combining to form a rosy glow.
Beneath the rosy glow, countless clouds rolled continuously, like waves, one after another, forming a sea of five-colored auspicious clouds.
"Colors condensed into five, qi formed into a sea."
"Seven colors signify the Great Law, while a Golden Immortal should have five colors. But the sign of qi forming a sea represents the favor of heaven."
"Too smooth. I have lived for countless years, from ancient times to now, and I have seen many Yuan Sons, but none have been as smooth as him," the Cyan Blue Demon God explained in Yang Qifeng's mind.
Yang Qifeng was inwardly shocked. To form a sea, how much favor must heaven have for him? Even the qi of the Immortal of Virtue is not much stronger than this.
Feeling a slight pain in his eyes, he quickly closed them, knowing that this was the backlash of observing another's qi.
By using the Qi Divination Technique to observe the monkey's position, Yang Qifeng knew it was the Golden Immortal position of the Great Sage Equal to Heaven!
It was definitely this one, no doubt.
If the monkey is like this, what about the other six?
The six of them, together with the monkey, were known as the Seven Great Sages.
They were supposed to be like-minded, but now Yang Qifeng saw it differently. The Great Sage Equal to Heaven is a Golden Immortal position, and the other "Great Sages" are likely the same.
Befriending the monkey was not because they got along well, but because they saw the monkey's identity as a Yuan Son.
As you can see, once their calculations were achieved, these guys turned their backs on the monkey in an instant. How good were they as brothers? They didn't even recognize this good brother when it came to their own sons.
However, these messy affairs were not what Yang Qifeng was concerned about. They used the monkey to successfully obtain the Golden Immortal position and ascend to Golden Immortal. This only showed that they were capable and had some background. The monkey's current status is not something ordinary people can touch.
Forget about scheming; even showing hostility, if it poses a threat to the monkey, someone will eliminate you silently, like the spring breeze.
"Yuan Son, son of heaven, favored by heaven, truly lives up to the name," Yang Qifeng's voice was bitter.
"Heaven's favor, what a joke. No matter how the world changes, one thing will never change: there is no such thing as heaven's favor," the Cyan Blue Demon God's voice rose in Yang Qifeng's mind, booming loudly.
"Think back to ancient times, when the Emperor was born with a supreme treasure, far better than this monkey. At that time, the Emperor firmly believed he was favored by heaven, but what was the final result? The Emperor died," the Cyan Blue Demon God's voice became more mournful, and he shouted, "The Emperor's last words, I still remember."
"Must be repaid, must be repaid, must be repaid," the three repeated words made Yang Qifeng shudder, unable to speak.
