Chapitre 3: Chapter 3 Brainwashing Sun Wukong

"Ah?"

Sun Wukong was somewhat shocked, his senior brother was practically opening the doors to a new world for him.

Back in the mountain, where could he have seen an Immortal? A casual spell from an Immortal was enough to broaden his horizons significantly.

He scratched the back of his head and then said, "Senior brother, is this world really that terrifying?"

"Do you know what cultivation level is needed for longevity now?"

Wang Yang felt it necessary to make Sun Wukong understand his current situation; otherwise, how could he change Sun Wukong's trajectory.

"I don't know, senior brother!"

Of course, Sun Wukong shook his head, he naturally didn't know.

"The longevity you speak of can be achieved just by reaching the level of Golden Immortal, but do you know how many realms there are beyond that?"

Wang Yang asked.

Sun Wukong had no idea, but he could guess that there would certainly not be just a few.

Golden Immortal, Taiyi Golden Immortal, Grand Luo Golden Immortal, Quasi-Saint, Saint!

"And each of these realms is distinct; their strengths are utterly different, so much so they could be said to be worlds apart. Take me, your senior brother, for example, I'm merely in the late stages of the Earth Immortal's cultivation. If I were to encounter someone at the early stage of Celestial Immortal and engage in combat, there would only be one outcome—I would perish and my path would be extinguished!"

Wang Yang emphasized the phrase "perish and my path extinguished" heavily.

Hearing Wang Yang's words, Sun Wukong couldn't help but shrink his neck, the fear making his hair stand on end.

He felt a touch of fear.

Wang Yang continued, "Even if you are in the same realm, without powerful divine skills, you would likely meet the same fate—perish and your path extinguished!"

"Even if your magical treasures, realm, and divine skills are on par, a single careless move in a duel of spells could still not spare you from the fate of perishing and your path being extinguished!"

"It's too terrifying, the end would still be to perish and the path extinguished!"

Sun Wukong, who previously feared neither heaven nor earth, began to feel scared after Wang Yang's words.

After all, he was only seeking Immortals to learn the techniques of longevity because of the fear of death. To think a single mishap could lead to perishing and the path extinguished—how could anyone bear that?

"Senior brother, isn't cultivation meant for achieving longevity? Why should we fight with others?"

Sun Wukong said in a soft voice.

The Great Sage Equalling Heaven, who used to battle the skies and earth, changed under the influence of Wang Yang; he became timid.

After all, a single misstep could lead to perishing and the path extinguished—wouldn't it be fine if he just didn't fight with others?

"You are teachable, my lad, but just because you think so doesn't mean others will, and longevity isn't just about cultivators bringing trouble upon themselves. There could also be disasters that, with a little carelessness, could end your life!"

Sun Wukong grew even more nervous upon hearing this—so even if he didn't engage in battles with others, he could still die?

That was too dangerous.

"Then, senior brother, what should we do?"

Sun Wukong asked cautiously.

"We must remember that the best way to handle any matter is simply not to engage in it. Don't you just want to be a good king on Mount Huaguo? In the future, just cultivate diligently, and sometimes play with the children of Mount Huaguo. As for other matters, don't do them, don't agree to them, and thus, no complications will arise!"

Sun Wukong nodded thoughtfully.

He felt his senior brother was right. After all, without causing conflict with others, who would trouble him?

"So that's how it is!"

"Next, it's about your tactics. You must not reveal all your cards. You need to understand the virtue of concealing your clumsiness!"

"Concealing my clumsiness?"

Sun Wukong was somewhat puzzled and looked at Wang Yang with confusion.

"Concealing your clumsiness means you must hide your capabilities. If necessary, you should know to hold back, showing only seventy percent of your strength, not all of it.

That way, even if you might be calculated against in the future, you can still catch them off guard and extricate yourself from danger. That's what concealing your clumsiness is!"

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong nodded, feeling that it made sense, but then he thought of a possibility and hesitated before asking, "But big brother, what if I use all my trump cards and still can't overcome my opponent?"

"That's exactly the point I'm coming to!"

Wang Yang nodded and continued, "That is to run away!"

"As the saying goes, if the green hills are preserved, there's no need to worry about firewood. As long as you're alive, you'll still have chances!"

Sun Wukong was still immature at this point, like a child, and thus easily influenced. After hearing Wang Yang's words, he was quickly led astray.

"What my brother said is right. I will take it to heart. From now on, I'll try my best to avoid conflicts with others, not reveal all my strength, and if I can't win, I'll run!"

Sun Wukong summarized.

"Good, very good!"

Seeing Sun Wukong's response, a smile appeared on Wang Yang's face.

"To see if you've really taken my advice to heart, I've prepared a few questions for you,"

"For example, if you, little brother, achieve some success in your cultivation and return to Mount Huaguo, and there's a chubby old man who says he's a celestial Court emissary, inviting you to become immortal and join the Immortal Rank in celestial Court, what would you do?"

Then comes the three options.

"First, rush over and send the visitor flying, telling him to get lost!"

"Second, joyfully follow the emissary to celestial Court to join the Immortal Rank!"

"Third, superficially agree but secretly use a cloning spell to return to Mount Huaguo and continue your reign as king!"

"Which one would you choose?"

After saying this, Wang Yang looked at Sun Wukong.

Scratching his fluffy ears upon hearing the question, Sun Wukong thought, what kind of questions are these.

"Choose the first one?"

Sun Wukong answered not so intelligently, as after all, he just wanted to honestly be the Great King of Mount Huaguo and had no interest in going to celestial Court.

"If you think you're stronger than a heavenly Immortal's envoy, could you possibly be stronger? Even if you seem more powerful, how do you know his actual strength?"

"Little brother, remember, the Three Realms may seem calm now, but pie doesn't just fall from the sky. You must not take any visitor lightly!"

After Wang Yang's words, Sun Wukong understood a bit more and became more vigilant, then said, "Then how about choosing the second option?"

"Little brother, don't forget, there's no pie falling from the sky. If someone from heaven comes down to invite you to become an Immortal, how would you know their motives? Going there now, you might end up being sold and even help them count the money!"

"So, you must be cautious with any choice!"

Sun Wukong was puzzled, then somewhat astonished, he said, "But big brother, what if I don't go with them and they retaliate against my monkeys, my children?"

"Little brother, you have to understand, celestial Court wouldn't easily do such a thing either; everything has to follow the order. If they trouble you for no reason, how many from the Demon Race would rise in rebellion? celestial Court couldn't bear that, so as long as you abide by the rules and don't give them any excuse, even if they're powerful, they wouldn't dare to mess with you without cause. But if you're the one causing trouble, that would give them a reason to act!"

Wang Yang spoke eloquently, indoctrinating Sun Wukong. As long as he could convince Sun Wukong, his trajectory would naturally change.
