Chapter 239 Ruyi Jingu Bang!
"Jason, are you sure you want to fight me?" May asked doubtfully.
"Yeah, I am sure. If you don't fight with anyone, how can you do it when the time comes. Its best if you start using your power more frequently." Jason replied.
"As you say…"
Jason and May were currently present in the fields situated around Duphia. The former had asked Amon to increase the range of the protective circle so that he could train May to use her powers.
Since she was finally free from the curse on her body, the demi-god could finally use her powers without worrying about any withdrawal.
"What elements do you have again?" Jason questioned.
"Uh… light, wind and fire I think." May murmured. "I only used wind and light a bit so I am not exactly sure."
"Light you say…" Jason fell deep in thought when he heard that May had the light element.
If he wanted, he could get her to use the dark element as well due to the special connection between the two elements.
However, since she already had a lot to learn, Jason decided to tell her about the truth later on.
"What powers do you receive from your divinity? You should be able to see all of them on a screen if you try to think about your divinity's power." Jason explained.
May did as told and soon started staring directly in front of her face. With a surprised expression, she extended her right hand outwards.
"Break through the heavens, Ruyi Jingu Bang?" May said in a semi-confused tone.
The moment the words left her mouth, a stone staff came flying from the sky. Her divinity started shining brightly as the staff appeared in her hand.
Jason had only heard about the staff in myths but if all of them were true, May was currently holding one of the heaviest weapons to exist in history.
"Is that the real staff though?" Jason wondered aloud.
[ It is real. All of the staffs summoned by Wukong's followers are created from the original staff used by the monkey king. If someone other than his followers lift that stuff, it will tear their arm off due to its heaviness.
However, some myths say that those with a pure heart and good intentions may wield the staff during times of peril. It totally depends on the fact whether the staff allows you to wield it. ] Hestia explained.
Jason glanced at the staff made from stone before sighing. Truth be told, he had wanted to become Sun Wukong's follower but had never managed to reach the monkey king in the bar of Gods.
All he could hope was that May would be able to make use of that power for the better.
"May, try expanding that staff towards that tree." Jason said while pointing towards a tree in the distance.
"Expand!" May chanted as the staff suddenly shot started stretching.
It hit the tree within seconds, making the top of half of it fall on the ground.
"Try enlarging it," Jason suggested.
May did as told and watched the staff grow ten times its original width. Jason couldn't help but admire the power held within Wukong's staff.
May was holding something so powerful effortlessly as though it didn't weigh much. Jason could tell that if he was bonked in the head with the staff, his skull would definitely be crushed.
[ You can use divine energy to counter it and protect yourself. Remember, you are fighting a demi-god, not the actual Sun Wukong. ]
'You are right.' Jason nodded before cracking his knuckles. "May, what else can you do?"
"Uh, I can summon a lightning cloud to travel on and I can create clones of myself. I think I can also summon something that will create huge windstorms. The last option is blurred to me but it allows me to summon a bottle that will capture people."
"Interesting… try riding the cloud and using the staff in its normal form to hit me. Make sure you control its weight though or I might get crushed by it."
"This can crush you?!" May' asked with a slightly open jaw. "Its barely heavier than a pillow."
"Its because the staff can specifically be used by you. If think about it weight, you can tell how heavy it is. You can manipulate the weight by your thoughts and it will change according to that.
The lighter it is, the faster it will travel. As for heavier version, it will hit hard enough to tear a person apart but it might be a bit slow. Use the lightest version right now while riding on the cloud." Jason explained.
May nodded before raising her hand towards the sky. She chanted something under her breath before clenching her fist.
Suddenly, dark clouds gathered directly above May's head. They got together to form a cluster before shooting downwards.
The cloud stopped directly in front of May's body and allowed her to step on it. Much to May's surprise, she could tell that the cloud was alive.
"I think the cloud is alive." She commented.
[ Its because the cloud you are standing on is one of the numerous offsprings of the original cloud used by Sun Wukong. That is why Wukong's followers are immensely strong since they use original stuff for combat.
However, most of them can only use one major weapon. Since you are his direct descendant, you can use all of his powers and weapons. ] Hestia directly explained to May.
The demi-god looked at the cloud and the staff in fascination before commanding it to rise in the air.

"Do you have a name?" She asked innocently.
The cloud seemed to shift a bit beneath her, making her hear something directly inside her head.
"Kwinto?" She asked.
The cloud shifted again as it telepathically communicated with May. The demi-god talked with Kwinto for a bit before looking at Jason.
"I am ready. Should we begin?"
"Sure, let's begin." Jason immediately turned on his white thunder and stretched his body.
It was going to be an interesting fight for him to face something.
"Ruyi Jingu Bang!" May suddenly shouted and threw the staff at an eye-blinding speed.
Jason immediately moved away from his spot and the moment he did so, a huge explosion shook the entire field.
The spot where the staff had hit the ground had a three meter crater in it…
