Great Demon Sun Wukong-Chapter 502 - 485: Thunder Fire Scorching Flame Cannon Reappears
As more people came to their senses after Zhibei's sudden betrayal, by the time they rushed over, Zhibei had already removed the ring from Ming Wanjie's corpse. As the ring left Ming Wanjie's finger, tens of thousands of ghost soldiers standing between the two sides suddenly vanished, as if blown away by a gust of wind. Seeing the ghost army disappear, Zhibei nodded, confirming the information was exactly as the intelligence reported.
He pocketed the ring and rose to his feet, striding towards Ling Weiyang's location. Meanwhile, Du Tianyang and his two companions' attacks never ceased, yet they couldn't harm Zhibei in the slightest. On Ling Weiyang's side, seeing that Zhibei had succeeded and the ghost army had indeed disappeared, he waved his hand, and the thirty-plus people behind him, each wielding their weapons, charged forward with shouts.
Zhibei no longer acted arrogantly, as he simultaneously shot out three Nine-Destruction Copper Coins. Du Tianyang, Shang Sheng, and Zhan Yunyi had no choice but to abandon their ongoing attacks against Zhibei to defend against the copper coins flying towards them. With the three men occupied by the copper coins, no one was left to chase after Zhibei. With a series of swift movements, Zhibei appeared beside Ling Weiyang. With a beckoning gesture, the three copper coins returned to Zhibei's hands.
Although Zhibei had reached Ling Weiyang's side, Myriad Demons Country's people had charged out, colliding fiercely with the seventy or so people who were pursuing Zhibei. This was a direct confrontation between the majority of both factions in the final decisive battle of the Patrolling Celestial World's trial. Among them, Old Wang fought Du Tianyang, Shang Sheng and Zhan Yunyi joined forces against the Evil Monarch; Ling Yi battled Demon Wumeng; the elderly Xuan Ling Taoist combated Fen Yan; Canglan River Realm's Domain Lord-level powerhouse Ghost Jade tackled He Tu, also known as Bai Zhaoju; Li halberd dueled Chu Zhan; and the Soul Devouring Monk faced Luo Chen.
The remaining superpowerhouses of Myriad Demons Country each took on two to three Nine Patterns Supremes from the Allied Forces. Although Myriad Demons Country's numbers were only half that of their opponents, their morale was significantly boosted by previous interventions from He Tu and Zhibei, whereas the Allied Forces were more cautious, holding back some of their strength in case of unforeseen complications. This, combined with Myriad Demons Country's full-force attacks, leveled the numerical disadvantage, turning seventy against thirty into a stalemate.
Watching everyone engaged in intense battle, Ling Weiyang patted Zhibei's shoulder and said, "You've worked hard all these years." Zhibei replied softly with a laugh, "It's nothing. This is all for our grand plan. Once we win this time and become the first of the Six Great Divine Nations, at the next opening of the Fallen Tomb, that will be our opportunity. Bai Zhaoju is fine, right? Are the methods provided by those two from the Transforming Thunder Ancestral Realm reliable?"
"Rest assured, everything is going according to plan. As long as Xi Zhao utilizes the power of the Annihilation Nine-Headed Serpent to deal with Dao Zhun and Sun Wukong, our side will have an easier time. As for Bai Zhaoju, don't worry about him - Bai Yi's body-switching technique is incredibly strange; it's a mystery where he acquired such a unique skill. Such extraordinary techniques, I fear, can only be found in the Fallen Tomb. And there is also another individual that has caught my interest."
"Are you referring to Cheng Qian from the Ancient Primordial World? I also didn't expect him to be capable of exercising such heaven-defying resurrection techniques. It seems that these high-level worlds are not as simple as we imagined. By the way, have the Underworld God Army taken that item out yet? Heh, to tell you the truth, I really want to give it a try myself. I've been holding back for such a long time; I haven't had a good, hearty fight in a while. Just the last time, I accidentally severed one of Bai Zhaoju's arms, sigh."
"According to the arrangement with Qian Yuye, that item should have already arrived. But, are you sure you want to use that?" Zhibei's eyes glinted with fervor as he said, "Of course, I've studied that thing for hundreds of thousands of years. Although the one made by the Underworld God Army is surely not as good as the original, it's perfect for me. If it were the one from Underworld Venerate himself, I probably couldn't even wield it. Alright, I'll leave this to you. I need to take advantage of my identity being revealed only recently to deceive them one more time."
With that, Zhibei didn't wait for Ling Weiyang to respond and vanished in the direction of Xi Zhao. Watching Zhibei's departing figure and then glancing at the people embroiled in battle, Ling Weiyang suddenly wondered if he too should find a worthy opponent for a match. If he didn't act soon, many might forget the extent of his terror.
In Xi Zhao's area, the second round of fighting was about to begin, but this time, the participants had changed. Xi Zhao stood before the colossal head of the Annihilation Nine-Headed Serpent, which was still recovering, forcing Xi Zhao to take action himself. He stood proudly in front of the huge serpent head with his hands clasped behind him. Opposite him, Sun Wukong, Sha Wujing, Dao Zhun, Po Jun, Rogue Heart Sword Hero, and Wan Jun all stared at Xi Zhao with cautious expressions.
There was no mistake, among those who fought Xi Zhao, Rogue Heart Sword Hero and Wan Jun were indeed present. It wasn't surprising for Rogue Heart Sword Hero; he was originally from the Netherworld World, so his participation in the battle against Xi Zhao was to be expected. But Wan Jun's presence was somewhat surprising. After Xi Zhao had just defected from the Netherworld World, Sun Wukong had once entered Dao Zhun's space to inquire about Xi Zhao from Mo Wu the demon weasel.
At that time, Dao Zhun had also called Rogue Heart Sword Hero into the space and had chosen a place for Rogue Heart Sword Hero and Wan Jun to fight a fair battle. This battle was not only the long-held wish of Rogue Heart Sword Hero but also that of Wan Jun. The outcome of this titanic battle remained unknown to everyone. When they were avoiding the blood serpent transformed from the blood of the Annihilation Nine-Headed Serpent, Sun Wukong used Spatial Sand to send everyone into Dao Zhun's space. Once inside, they saw Rogue Heart Sword Hero and Wan Jun.
Then Dao Zhun told them that Wan Jun had turned over a new leaf, and that he was no longer a part of the Annihilation Demon Nation and could fight alongside everyone from now on. Although Sun Wukong, Po Jun, and others still did not trust Wan Jun, they had great trust in Dao Zhun and Rogue Heart Sword Hero. Thus, at the suggestion of Rogue Heart Sword Hero, Wan Jun replaced Si Ye and Yu Fan the Taoist Monk, who had died in battle, to fight against Xi Zhao once more.
Hidden Mountain and Yu Fan the Taoist Monk stayed in Dao Zhun's space, designated to deal with the giant serpent. Hence, the current situation developed. Xi Zhao, seeing Wan Jun's arrival, was also somewhat surprised but showed no more than that. Now, without the help of the Annihilation Nine-Headed Serpent, Xi Zhao had to face Dao Zhun, Sun Wukong, Sha Wujing, Rogue Heart Sword Hero, Wan Jun, and Po Jun alone—six high-level masters, among whom two were Domain Lord level powerhouses, possessing two World Suppressing Steles, and Wan Jun also wielded domain instruments like the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss. Although Po Jun did not have a domain instrument nor a Heavenly Stele, his previous strike had beheaded the Annihilation Nine-Headed Serpent, which made Xi Zhao quite wary.
Though Sun Wukong didn't quite understand why the Annihilation Nine-Headed Serpent was back to normal yet remained motionless, he knew that now was the time to battle Xi Zhao.
"Xi Zhao, rest assured, I once promised you that if we met again on the battlefield, I would let you escape death four times. So, this time, I will not kill you," and indeed, Xi Zhao laughed heartily, "Sun Wukong, you had better worry about yourself. Who lives and who dies today is still uncertain!"
Just then, a sudden shout came, and Sun Wukong turned his head to see Zhibei from the Myriad Gods Hall waving towards him with a long spear over a meter long. "Wukong, wait for me, I'm coming to help you!" Seeing Zhibei appearing here and carrying a spear completely disproportionate to his size, Sun Wukong was momentarily confused, but did not dwell on it, realizing that it must be that Ming Wanjie was worried about their side and had sent Zhibei to assist.
Upon seeing Zhibei, Xi Zhao's expression also showed uncertainty. However, he did not display any hint of fear. He stretched out his right hand and with a wave, a white-hot Heavenly Stele appeared in his hand. It was none other than the Burning Fire number nine.
Xi Zhao then placed the Burning Fire Stele directly on the ground and pressed his right hand on top of it. Following this, he slowly pulled his hand upwards, and as he did so, a fiery red object suddenly appeared on the stele. At that moment, Sun Wukong's Heaven and Earth Fire Eyes were already activated. Upon seeing the fiery red object, he exclaimed in surprise, "Thunder Fire Scorching Flame Cannon? Xi Zhao, have you lost your mind?"
