Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms

Monkey King: The Heaven and Earth Interdimensional Realm is within the region of space but it is above the level of Earth!

Chen Xiaobei: What about the actual coordinate?

Monkey King: After the third catastrophe, the first Daoist opened up the Thirty-Three Heavens with the largest four fragments in space and used them to create a square piece of land.

Monkey King: You have the Heavenly Realm, the Human Realm, the Underworld Realm, and the Heaven and Earth Interdimensional Realm, which is the fourth realm! It is the only realm that allows you to travel between the three realms!

Chen Xiaobei: So… If I understand what you are saying, that means you could take that route to reach the human realm!

Monkey King: Hold your horses there. Deities are strong. So strong that they could destroy the stars and swallow the sun! If the deities have the freedom to descend to the human realm, Earth would have been destroyed long ago!

Monkey King: To protect humanity, the first Daoist Hong Diao sealed the pathway. Only special occasions allow a deity to descend to the human realm. For example, when a deity is tasked with a mission.

Chen Xiaobei: I see… Question. Is there anyone in the human realm that has risen to the heavens?

Monkey King: Ah! There is! When your own strength has reached a point when you could destroy the stars, the Divine Retribution will automatically be triggered. As long as you can survive that trial, you will have access to the Door of Longevity and gain the status of a deity!

Chen Xiaobei: That’s just incredible! The power to destroy stars! Swallow the sun?! What an unbelievable strength!

Monkey King: Haha, earth to brother Chen, please come back to reality! That a dream that is too far from your own goal. Let’s get back to the main topic.

Chen Xiaobei: Right. After talking for so long, I still have no idea what is up with the Void!

Monkey King: The Void is a special place on Earth. It existed even during the first calamity! Legend has it that the end of the Void was connected to the Demon Realm, where Rahu’s tribe lived.

Chen: Rahu? Is he the one that was adamant and blatantly saying he wanted to kill the first Daoist?

Monkey King: Yes. That’s him! The saints predicted that in this calamity, Rahu’s tribe will be making a comeback. That is why, not just the Prime of Tongtian, but all of the other saints will be going to the edge of the Void to seal the path that is connected to the Demon Realm!

Monkey King: Once the sealing is done, it will prevent the coming of a disaster. When the time comes, the Divine Retribution would grant countless merit points! Even the saints themselves would be fighting for that!

Chen Xiaobei: I see. I still have some questions though. Last time, when my sifu came back from the Void, he gave me a divine skill called the Primordial Witch King Combat Enhancement Training Manual! Is this coincidence? Does it have anything to do with the witch tribe? Or even the demon tribe?

Monkey King: Hard to tell. However, after the second calamity, the witch tribe fell and the survivors fled to the Void and lived there. However, there was no word that anyone had ever been to the edge of the Void.

Monkey King: Back when Lei Zhengzi and his merry friends went to finish their mission, it was only the surface of the Void. It was known that the Witch Tribe lived in the center of the Void. The Prime of Tongtian might have found the skill there when he discovered the trails of the witch tribe.

Chen Xiaobei: I understand now! Thank you so much. Ah. I wish my sifu could be back soon! I wonder what kind of present would he give me this time! ?

Monkey King: Urgh! I’m jealous! What a lucky guy to have the Prime of Tongtian as a sifu. The man is the most generous saint ever in existence! The present he gives out would be a bomb!

Chen Xiaobei: Oh man! You’ve said it! I’m getting excited by the minute!

Monkey King: I feel the same way as well! When the Prime of Tongtian comes back, tell him about the incident with Jiang Ziya! I’m sure he will do something to defend you!

Chen Xiaobei: You really think so? In that case, I’d really like sifu to stand up for me!

Monkey King: There’s just one thing. The Prime of Tongtian is in the Void. There’s just no way for you to communicate with him.

Chen Xiaobei: Hehe. Worry not. There’s a way. In fact, I’ll go now to talk to my sifu! I will have Jiang Ziya pay double of what he has done to me!

Monkey King: Yes! That’s the spirit! Off you go! I’ll wait here for your return to beat that pretty boy’s face!

Chen Xiaobei: Hehe, leave it to me! I won’t disappoint you!

Chen Xiaobei exited the chat group and headed to the training room.

To communicate with the Prime of Tongtian, Chen Xiaobei would require to train with the Scripture of Heaven and Earth until he reached a stable status. Coincidently, Chen Xiaobei needed to train to surpass his cultivation level. It was a perfect ”two birds, one stone” situation.

Chen Xiaobei withdrew the green jade gourd and drank a mouthful of Spiritual Qi. With a clear mind, he started to train the skill and successfully begun to make a breakthrough. However, at that moment, he was still unable to link to the Prime of Tongtian just yet. There was still some time needed.

The training had Chen Xiaobei spend more than half a day which, in the meantime, the Prime of Tongtian would think of Chen Xiaobei. It was something that could cross his mind and was nothing to worry about. The training session was successful and Chen Xiaobei gained a steady increase in his cultivation.

In the early morning of the next day…

Chen Xiaobei proceeded to try and communicate with the Prime of Tongtian using the Divine Link.

”Xiaobei!”

A familiar voice rung in Chen Xiaobei’s head. In the next second, a silhouette formed slowly and materialized into a handsome Daoist! The man looked like he was 27 years old, with a handsome, dignified posture! His nose was held high and his lips were just the right thickness. Though an aura of freedom and playfulness emanated between his eyebrows; still the light of wisdom could be seen hiding behind his eyes.

”Sifu! You’re here!”

Chen Xiaobei was excited. As long as he could talk to the Prime of Tongtian, everything would be settled just right!

”Hmm. I have felt some changes in your destiny and have tried to communicate with you. What a coincidence that you are training your cultivation!” said the Prime of Tongtian calmly.

”Sifu is right! It’s Jiang Ziya! He has wronged me and had all my merit points reduced to zero…”

Chen Xiaobei then proceeded to explain the entire situation to the Prime of Tongtian.

With affirmation, the Prime of Tongtian replied, ”I understand what you have done and I am extremely proud of you! You have brought great honor to my name! However, this grudge shall never go unreturned!”

”What does Sifu have in mind to help?” Chen Xiaobei asked.

”Simple,” said the Prime of Tongtiag casually.

”You see, it’s a mutual relationship. You needed the items from the Heavenly Realm. They, as in the deities in the Heavenly Realm would need to get something from your world! If you sever this relationship, there will only be a complete cut out on supplies!”

”Huh? I don’t understand. The deities needing something from me? That’s just impossible…”

Curious, Chen Xiaobei continued, ”The things that I could procure, are daily items that could be found on Earth. It’s nothing important. It’s not something that I could use as leverage.”

”What you need to do now is to continue on your cultivation. If my prediction is right, soon, Jiang Ziya will approach… No. He will beg you for something!” said the Prime of Tongtian with confidence, as if he had everything under his control.

”Yes, Sifu! Your words give me nothing but assurance!” said Chen Xiaobei as he bowed to his sifu. He smiled happily knowing that his sifu would be true to his words.

When Chen Xiaobei raised his head, he saw the Prime of Tongtian looking puzzled.

”Xiaobei, the reason of your destiny being altered, is not because of Jiang Ziya! You might have peeked into the Divine Secret!”

”Huh? Divine Secret. I would never…”

Chen Xiaobei thought hard and could not recall he had ever done something of that sort. ”It’s been a long time since I have used the Eight Diagram of Godly Prediction.”

”Think harder!”

Chen Xiaobei thought harder and realization struck.

”Sifu once said that the calamity is a Divine Secret. If one reveal it to other before the coming of this calamity, the person will be punished by Divine Punishment! I’ve heard everything that Monkey King has said!”
