Is it Sun Wukong's impatience, his concern for Tang Seng and Zhu Bajie, or a backlash from the Value Game's response to how he solved the first question?

Li Changzhou didn't know, nor did he need to know. Whoever stood in front of him had only one option: to "charge through"!

Unlike him, who was composed due to habit, the fairies were greatly surprised.

"It's just an immortal. If the Great Sage Equalling Heaven joins the fight, he could kill him with a single strike."

"What a pity that he's so handsome and bright. It'd be a real shame if he died just like that."

Yang Qinglan remained expressionless.

Li Qianxia's eyes flickered twice. She had just come out from the Mountain and River Map, her intelligence still intact, and her "brother complex" talent had not fully recovered, so she didn't show any concern.

As for the Turquoise Pool, she remained inside the luxurious carriage, unseen by anyone.

——Find a way to catch those fairies in plain colored clothes, they know where the Immortal Peach Orchard is. (She communicated through Voice Transmission)

——Also, (she continued with Voice Transmission), don't think about going to the Doushuai Temple to steal the Immortal Pills. The Queen Mother is not there, the Immortal Peach Orchard has only a few local deities and mountain gods, nobody knows the situation in the Doushuai Temple, but Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad might be there.

Li Changzhou indeed had a fleeting thought of stealing Immortal Pills from the Doushuai Temple.

The Turquoise Pool had a profound understanding of people's hearts; she guessed what Li Changzhou was thinking with just one guess.

"Monkey," he started, "I'm okay with competing against you too, but I have just solved the first question and my mana has been depleted. Give me two days to recover, and then, even if you kill me, I will be convinced."

"You better return my master and brothers first!" Sun Wukong waved his hand and commanded.

Unyielding, Li Changzhou seriously began to consider capturing a fairy to "teleport" to the Immortal Peach Orchard.

"Wukong," clouds parted, and the Bodhisattva Guanyin appeared seated on a lotus in the sky, "the Queen Mother has laid down ten questions as the Heavenly Will. Naturally, we must see it through to the end."

"Bodhisattva!" Sun Wukong interrupted, bringing his palms together, his tone quite intense, "my master and brothers—"

"Be not hasty," Guanyin said with a smile, "I assure you that Tang Seng and Bajie are unharmed. After the ten questions, you may take your master and brothers and continue your westward journey to retrieve the scriptures."

After a moment of thought, Sun Wukong replied, "Alright! Bodhisattva, you are of great compassion, and I will trust you this once!"

With a somersault, he landed back on the banks of the Heavenly River and found a rock to sit on with crossed legs, clearly still feeling angry.

Sha Wujing hurriedly went over to him, eagerly trying to soothe him and, at the same time, to avoid being taken hostage himself.

"As for you—" Guanyin's gaze moved to Li Changzhou, flicking a drop of the crystal-clear nectar from a willow branch.

Li Changzhou knew his tactic of delaying had failed. With a sweep of his sleeve, he caught the nectar that was originally aimed at his forehead.

"Many thanks, Bodhisattva," he said with a bow and a smile, "I think I can hold on a bit longer. I'll keep this drop of nectar for later use."

The Bodhisattva Guanyin didn't know why he acted as if they were very familiar with each other.

"I'm afraid you won't have the life to use it," she said flatly.

Li Changzhou just smiled, then turned his head toward the Queen Mother's Maid, "Purple Fairy, please present the Queen Mother's second question."

However, the Purple Fairy said, "If you don't need the Bodhisattva's nectar to recover your mana, don't claim we of the Heavenly Palace use our power to bully others if you lose later on."

"Hmm... that's also true. Please wait a moment, fairies," he said.

With the willow branch nectar in hand, Li Changzhou knew the other side wouldn't give him even three minutes to rest, so he didn't delay and began using his mana.

Bang!

The essence of heaven and earth, the vitality of myriad things in the mountains and rivers, and the death aura of the battlefield, all were tamed into streams of aurora-like light, cascading from the sky and pouring over Li Changzhou.

Apart from Yang Qinglan, Li Qianxia, and the Turquoise Pool, the youngest fairies were over a hundred years old, but even the widely experienced ones had never seen such phenomena during mana recovery.

It was as though a Heavenly God was accepting a baptism from the world!

Even the Nine Heavens Mystic Goddess, who was older than Huaxia history, cast a side glance at Li Changzhou.

In the vast primordial world, there were cultivators who absorbed all kinds of spiritual energy, but there was none that absorbed everything. Li Changzhou was the only one.

Seeing that they were astonished, Li Changzhou had an inspiration. He deliberately intensified his mana, making his aura more majestic to buy as much time as possible.

Boom!

The Five Organs Gears rotated.

He rose to his feet, transforming into a 3,000-meter Divine Body, opened his mouth, and inhaled towards the heavens.

Thunderously, the essence of the sun and moon and cosmic energy, turned into waves of aurora-like tides, were swallowed by him in one gulp.

The fairies were indeed stunned again.

"Is this Fatian Xiangdi?!"

"No, it's not! Strange, it seems that this might be the monster's true form?"

"Such strong blood energy and vitality!"

"He can even absorb the chaotic Spiritual Energy from Chaos? What's the background of this monster?"

Sun Wukong squinted at Li Changzhou's Divine Body, snorting disdainfully.

Unable to hold on any longer, Li Changzhou retracted his Divine Body, rubbed his neck, and moved his muscles before saying to the Purple Fairy, "Sorry to keep you waiting. Let's begin."

Probably about six minutes had passed.

Not knowing whether it would be effective, but wanting to complete the task and return alive, he couldn't overlook any detail.

The Purple Fairy nodded: "Immortals cultivate the Five Bud Energy, consume the Seven Luminaries Light, wander to Beiming in the morning and lodge in Canghai at dusk. The second question is to compete in the Cloud Soaring Escaping Technique."

"Me me me!" Li Qianxia immediately raised her hand, "I'm good at this one!"

The Purple Fairy gave her a slight smile: "The Queen Mother has decreed that all immortals who enter the third round may attempt this question."

The Flowers Fairy asked, "Purple Fairy, any escaping technique aside from Cloud Soaring is not considered cheating?"

"Yes, Flowers Sister," the Purple Fairy replied with a smile.

The Flowers Fairy had a special escaping technique, which allowed her to move among all the flowers in the world. It was useless in battle, but in this competition, it was a very strong contender.
