It turns out that in this timeline, Senior Lin Yi and Son Goku still don't know each other!
Almost everyone can imagine that when they first met, Senior Lin Yi must have also subdued Son Goku in this overwhelming manner, which is why Son Goku was so obedient to Senior Lin Yi later on, and when Son Goku tried to visit Senior Lin Yi in Soul Land, he was sent away with just a single sentence from Senior Lin Yi.
Lin Yi didn't expect that everyone's ability to speculate and make logical deductions was much stronger than he had imagined.
He continued to show off.
Looking at the bewildered Son Goku in front of him, Lin Yi pretended to be reflective as he said, "You must not have fully matured yet, you're much weaker than when I first saw you. Do you know how much damage you just did?"
Son Goku had another bemused expression, "My damage?"
Lin Yi answered himself, "Only 10,046,578,348, which is far too little compared to the first time I saw you. However, this also shows that you have great potential to grow."
Son Goku looked at Ao Guang in confusion, "Do you understand what he's saying?"
Ao Guang shook his head frantically.
Lin Yi smiled lightly, "It's normal not to understand now, you'll get it later."
Soul City.
Everyone was first stunned into silence, then came the great shock and boiling excitement!
"Oh my God! We understand it!"
"10,046,578,348, is ... is that the number?! Let me count the digits!"
"Eleven digits!!!"
"Ten billion in damage!"
"Is this damage even possible for a human to deal out?!"
"He's a monkey!"
Gu Yuena's face was full of astonishment, "Who would have thought that a monkey soul beast could have such potential?"
Di Tian's expression was slightly awkward, "Uh, my dear lord ... is there a chance he's not a soul beast?"
Bi Bidong lowered her head and muttered, "Ten billion in damage, I couldn't deal such damage even if I stayed by Lin Yi's side day and night. Is this the gap between planes?"
Thousand Waves said, "It seems it's time to broaden our horizons."
Meanwhile, the seven gods of the Divine Realm were speechless for a long time.
Based on their observations over the past few days, they were roughly clear on Lin Yi's damage mechanism. The highest damage in these days was just eight or nine hundred thousand, and the gods also understood that they wouldn't deal much more damage than Gu Yuena.
So now, out of nowhere, there's ten billion damage...
This was an amount that would shock even the gods.
"I finally understand what 'a frog in a well' means."
The Asura God let out a wistful smile, staring at the monkey on the screen, his eyes filled with disbelief and a sense of helplessness.
The gap is too great, not just the plane's gap, but also the individual's gap.
To the Asura God, they were already the ceiling of this world, but for the people of that plane, that monkey might not be the ceiling at all.
…
Having said his piece, Lin Yi ignored the monkey's bewildered expression and reaction and walked towards him.
"Hand over the Golden Cudgel to me."
All of a sudden, Son Goku's face turned fierce; with a twist of his right foot, the thick golden pillar soared into his hand, "If you've got the guts, try taking it from my hands—"
Before Son Goku could finish his word "go," his eyes suddenly widened, watching as the Golden Cudgel flew out of his hands towards Lin Yi.
What?! Is it recognizing its master?!
```
Clearly, Dragon King Ao Guang of the Eastern Sea was also surprised by this scene.
With his right hand emitting a rainbow glow, Lin Yi grabbed one end of the Golden Cudgel, and Son Goku reacted extremely quickly, immediately reaching out to grab the other end of the cudgel.
"You are strong, but I'm not easy to bully either!"
Once he finished speaking, he pushed forward with a palm strike, and his colossal strength traveled along the entire length of the Golden Cudgel towards Lin Yi's palm, yet Lin Yi still stood his ground, unmoved.
The next moment, Son Goku saw Lin Yi crack a slight smile and said, "It's my turn."
Lin Yi also pushed forward with his palm, and the powerful rainbow light instantly overwhelmed the golden light on the Golden Cudgel. Son Goku felt an unbearable force surge into his hand. His body was propelled backward like a cannonball, crashing through countless corals and rocks in the sea without slowed pace and didn't stop until his body was embedded in the stone walls of Ryugu.
Ao Guang's mouth hung open in shock.
In Soul City, everyone's eyes widened; several even rubbed their eyes hastily, their expressions clearly filled with disbelief.
Truly... Truly worthy of Senior Lin Yi.
The Asura God turned to look at the Destruction God, panting rapidly, "Now do you understand how strong he is?"
The Destruction God remained silent without speaking, but his complexion was rather poor.
Lin Yi glanced in the monkey's direction and flicked his wrist; the Golden Cudgel hummed and then shrank to the size of a sewing needle before Lin Yi stored it in the System Space.
He then checked the damage inflicted and his remaining health.
[Blood Loss: 6748673459]
[Remaining Health: 883062270195]
Another 6.7 billion in health gone.
Although he felt no pain, the sight of those numbers still made Lin Yi wince a bit.
As he turned to leave, he heard Ao Guang from behind him, "Where does the Immortal intend to go now?"
Lin Yi paused, replying, "Back where I came from."
Ao Guang swallowed nervously, then quickly said, "Please wait a moment, Immortal. I have a set of armor I intend to present to you!"
True to his word, Lin Yi stopped. A smile appeared on his lips.
This old Dragon King really knows how to play his cards right. It seems that today I have gained the template of the Monkey King!
"That's fine. Dragon King Ao Guang of the Eastern Sea, is it? I'll remember you."
"Thank you, Immortal!"
Overcome with excitement, Ao Guang immediately kowtowed behind Lin Yi.
After all this upheaval, this plane had surely become a parallel universe of the Journey to the West, not affecting the other universes where Son Goku obtains the Golden Cudgel and equipment.
What followed next was exactly like the plot of the TV series.
The other three Dragon Kings one after another presented Lin Yi with gifts, with the only difference being that Lin Yi did not don the armor on the spot.
After emerging from the light screen, Lin Yi placed the armor into his System Space and then turned off the light screen.
It was then that everyone realized that Senior Lin Yi's aim had been to seize the Ruyi Jingu Bang for himself.
This revelation struck them suddenly, understanding that Senior Lin Yi possessed so many treasures. Were all those weapons in the Eternal Weapon Roulette obtained by plundering from other planes?!
My god, Senior Lin Yi pillaged precious artifacts from other planes and then came to Soul Land to give them away for free!
This was clear affection for Soul Land!
But why? The Douluo plane clearly has such a low ceiling; it's evident from the damage done.
Despite the low status and strength of characters in the Douluo plane, Senior Lin Yi still favored this place without disdain; was this a novel form of robbing the rich to aid the poor?
Almost simultaneously, everyone "realized" and suddenly felt that Lin Yi was so approachable and warm-hearted.
