The rod is three meters long, divided into nine sections, and has a turquoise body. Hephaestus sat on a long reef with a fishing rod in hand.

The spider-silk fishing line shook twice, and it was straight in an instant.

At the same time, each section on the rod begins to turn at a different speed.

"Boom la la ......"

"Boom la la ......"

A series of pleasant sounds are emitted on the fishing rod.

Immediately afterwards, the rod began to vibrate slightly, and in this way, the force on the rod was removed.

As soon as Hephaestus raised his hand, a sea fish about a meter long was easily caught by him.

He has been stripped of his divine powers, but he can catch a sea fish without much effort, all thanks to the benefit of the rod.

Wukong said: "Yo, I have never seen such a professional fishing tackle, greasy, greasy!"

Hephaestus said, "Don't you know? Zeus's lightning spear, Zeus' shield, Zeus's sword, even Poseidon's trident, Hades' pitchfork, all of these are made by me. ”

It's good enough!

Goku gives a thumbs up to Hephaestus.

"It's useless. Hephaestus got up, took the hook out of the fish's mouth, released the fish back into the sea, and then sat back down on the reef and continued fishing.

Everyone simply sat down on the reef to see how Wukong was.

Wukong asked, "What do you mean? This fish is useless?"

Hephaestus said, "I'm talking about your plan. Even if I had the heart to help you, you wouldn't have succeeded, and besides, I had no intention of getting involved. ”

Wukong said: "You mean that it makes no difference whether you help us or not?"

Hephaestus said: "Of course there is a difference. ”

Wukong said: "What's the difference?"

Hephaestus said, "If I don't help you, you won't necessarily die." But if I really help you to enter the underworld, then you are dead. ”

Goku pondered over these words, meaning that Hephaestus did have a way to enter the underworld, but this method did not seem to guarantee the safety of those who entered.

Isn't it just a little dangerous, and why was Wukong ever afraid?

So he decided to take this method out of Hephaestus' mouth.

Of course, finding out the news is also a matter of strategy, especially when dealing with someone like Hephaestus.

Wukong said: "Old Tuo, as far as I know, Kronos's rule has always been brutal, once he lifts the seal, it is not a good thing, aren't you worried at all?"

Hephaestus said, "Can he really break the seal?" From what I know about Hades, he must have had his own wishful thinking. At the beginning, the three Zeus brothers joined forces to ban me, and now I want to see how they fight. ”

Bajie suddenly interjected: "I heard that the reason why they don't like you is because you are ugly. ”

Hearing what Bajie said, Hephaestus seemed a little excited. He retorted: "What does it have to do with being ugly or not. Actually, they're jealous of me, it's Chiguoguo's jealousy, you know. ”

Bajie Qi said: "Jealousy, why should they be jealous of you?"

Hephaestus said, "Do you still need to ask, my unique cultivation method has caused them to worry, just as Kronos was worried that Zeus and his brothers would usurp his throne of power. ”

Bajie said: "According to my understanding, your cultivation method should only be regarded as a small path, is it necessary for Zeus to be afraid of you?"

Hephaestus shook his head and said, "It seems that you don't realize the power of cultivating things to enter the Tao at all. ”

Bajie said: "Then you say come and listen?"

Hephaestus did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically, "Tell me first, what are the gods fighting each other for?"

Bajie said: "For the sake of fighting for faith." ”

Hephaestus said, "But I don't need faith to grow stronger. ”

The Eight Precepts said: "Cultivators and Buddha cultivators also do not need to compete for faith. For example, powerful beings such as Hongjun Dao Ancestor or Wuchao Zen Master of the Three Realms, they are far away from the world and do not accept the worship of the world, but their cultivation will not be reduced because of this. ”

Hephaestus said: "But the Taoist Gate will have to cross the catastrophe, and the Buddhist Gate will have to go through difficulties." And even if you achieve the position of great power, once the Dao heart is unstable and the Buddha's heart is not solid, there will still be a day when you will fall to the earth. Whether it is cultivating the Tao or cultivating Buddhism, in fact, it is impossible to escape the word 'cultivating the mind'. ”

He glanced at everyone and continued, "But I am different, I can cultivate as I want, and I don't have to worry about the lack of faith, nor do I have to worry about going mad due to fluctuations in my state of mind. To tell the truth, have you ever seen such a god-defying cultivation method?"

Bajie said: "Isn't there any restriction on this cultivation method of yours?"

Hephaestus replied proudly: "If there were, would Zeus still be jealous of me?" I even suspect that this method of cultivation of mine has created a historical precedent, and it is not impossible to say that it is the ultimate method of cultivation. ”

The ultimate cultivation method!

This name is really enough to bluff people!

Suddenly, Goku exclaimed, "Oops, I understand a problem!"

Hephaestus said, "What do you understand?"

Wukong said: "I find that there is a fundamental difference between you and those world-class powers. Their world is imaginary, and can only be called 'thinking about things'. You can create the world in the way you build, and that's what you call the 'Creator' in the true sense of the word. ”

Hephaestus said, "You should finally believe it now, right? They did this because they were afraid that I would surpass them in the future, and even seal them off." What's ugly? It's just an excuse for them. ”

Wukong said: "Well, actually, I think you don't need to resent your father." After all, pit fathers and pit sons are the consistent fine traditions of your big world. From a distance, your grandfather Kronos cheated on his father, and then he was cheated by your father, and from a closer point, Ares cheated your father again. Hey, it's really a causal cycle, one report and one report. ”

Just when Goku mentioned the word "Ares", Hephaestus, who had always been calm and breezy, suddenly turned his head and stared at Goku intently.

Wukong snickered in his heart, but pretended not to know why, and asked, "Lao Tuo, what kind of eyes are you! Actually, I'm just kind enough to ease the relationship between your father and son, even if there is something wrong, you don't need to scare me like this, right?"

Hephaestus ignored it and continued to glare at Goku and said, "I heard you mention that bastard of Ares just now, what the hell is going on!"

His eyes were red and seemed to be dripping blood.
