Great Demon Sun Wukong-Chapter 514 - 496 Sun Wukong and Xi Zhao’s Confrontation
Nuwa's sudden rebellion was something no one in the Myriad Demons Country could have predicted, but whether they believed it or not, whether they could accept it, the fact remained that it had happened. Nuwa had indeed betrayed them, and after successively killing two powerhouses of the Myriad Demons Country, Nuwa became unstoppable. As Nuwa roared towards the heavens, layers of snow-white fur began to grow beneath her skin, and her body rapidly expanded in size.
This transformation was not random, but rather the result of the soul of Bai Zhaoju, which was within Nuwa's body, suddenly erupting. Nuwa's unexpected betrayal, which resulted in the deaths of two Myriad Demons Country strongmen, was not actually Bai Zhaoju's betrayal of the Myriad Demons Country, but because Bai Zhaoju had not completely destroyed Nuwa's soul after taking over the body of the Divine Honor He Tu of the Myriad Gods Hall. How could the soul of a Domain Lord Level powerhouse be so easily destroyed?
Therefore, Bai Zhaoju had only used the Soul Control Technique that person passed on to him to greatly suppress the soul of Divine Honor He Tu and then imprison it. But Bai Zhaoju was not very familiar with the Soul Control Technique, and after all, the flesh body belonged to Nuwa. Hence, after the initial phase, the remaining soul of Divine Honor He Tu accumulated a certain amount of power and, taking advantage of Bai Zhaoju's concentration on the battle, began to furiously assault the confinement.
Ultimately, the residual soul of Nuwa did break through the binds and Seal, but because Nuwa's soul had already been significantly weakened by Bai Zhaoju and was not whole, its initial burst to regain control of the body and the ensuing chaos in killing two Myriad Demons Country strongmen resulted in control being taken back by Bai Zhaoju.
However, when Bai Zhaoju took back control of the body, he was met with the combined fury of everyone from the Myriad Demons Country. As the initiators and participants in the grand scheme, these people of the Myriad Demons Country understood all too well the immense destructive power an insider could unleash at a critical moment. Moreover, many among them had been undercover within other forces for a substantial time, so to them, it would be no surprise if anyone suddenly turned into their enemy or a mole for the other side. Aside from Ling Weiyang, in their minds, anyone could be the enemy.
It was precisely because they were prepared for such a scenario that, when Nuwa, or Bai Zhaoju, killed two strongmen from the Myriad Demons Country, everyone from Myriad Demons Country immediately directed their next attack towards Nuwa and also retreated in unison, distancing themselves from Bai Zhaoju. When Bai Zhaoju had control over the body again, he didn't even have a chance to explain before he was bombarded with all manner of attacks, accompanied by torrential rain, leaving Bai Zhaoju with no avenue for escape.
Left with no choice, he could only protect his head with his hands, while all the Shadow Steles were summoned to maximize his defensive power. And when everyone from the Myriad Demons Country focused their attacks on Bai Zhaoju who had transformed into the berserk Blood-Splitting Heaven Bear, the Allied Forces naturally wouldn't idly watch the Myriad Demons Country strongmen attack Bai Zhaoju before turning their attention to them. Immediately, a barrage of various attacks launched from the hands of the Allied Forces, engulfing everyone from the Myriad Demons Country in an even more ferocious assault.
So, when both waves of different attacks finally settled, the situation on both sides was very clear. Although there had been close-quarters combat between the two sides before, most of the time they engaged in long-range spell fighting. This was not because they were inept at close combat. Instead it was because the people from the Myriad Demons Country were aware of their numerical disadvantage and knew that if they were to engage in melee, this disadvantage would put them at a clear loss. From the Allied Forces' perspective, long-range spells allowed for safer engagement, and should an insider emerge again within their ranks, they could collectively subdue the traitor, just as the Myriad Demons Country had done before.
Certainly, by using long-range spells, they could also significantly wear down the spiritual power of the people from Myriad Demons Country. Then, when their spiritual power was drained by forty to fifty percent, they would attack in force, maximizing their numerical advantage. Following these two waves of attacks, the most apparent outcome was Bai Zhaoju; his massive body now lay in a pool of blood, with sections of his once snow-white fur turned burnt black, and about a third of his chest blown away. The left side of his face was a gory mess, his ear blasted to pieces.
In addition, his body bore several fresh, bleeding wounds, and after this thorough barrage of attacks, although no one from the Myriad Demons Country was critically injured, they all looked quite pale and were breathing heavily. After all, the previous engagement had been a mix of offense and defense, with attacks rather scattered and without unified command. But this time was different, the attack was remarkably unified, and so the Myriad Demons Country's people were overwhelmed.
The people of Myriad Demons Country, having collectively defended against this wave of attack, did not immediately retaliate but instead turned all their attention to the giant bear lying in a pool of blood. In comparison to the threat posed by the Allied Forces, an unstable element within was obviously more threatening. Sensing the faint breath and chaotic spirit within the pool of blood from Bai Zhaoju, three powerful beings from Myriad Demons Country took tentative steps forward to check his status. If he was not completely dead, they would not hesitate to deliver another blow.
Just as they approached the pool of blood, ready to examine more closely, the bear, whose life force had seemed exceedingly feeble, suddenly erupted in violence. A massive, blood-soaked maw snapped shut around one individual's head, while the bear's blood-red claws struck the chests of the other two. Three Nine Patterns Supremes perished in an instant. The one who suffered the worst had his head entirely crushed by Bai Zhaoju's bite, while the other two were impaled through the chest by the bear's paws.
Bai Zhaoju's attack took everyone by surprise; no one had anticipated that someone seemingly on the brink of death could exhibit such formidable combat power. With lightning-fast strikes, he swiftly eliminated three Nine Patterns Supremes. How could Bai Zhaoju be so mighty? Those on the side of the Allied Forces naturally witnessed Bai Zhaoju's movements as well. Though they did not understand what had exactly happened, they did not intend to let such an opportunity slip by.
No matter what had become of Bai Zhaoju, he had indeed killed five people from Myriad Demons Country. After the death of Ming Wanjie, Ling Yi from Fangcun Spirit Realm took command of the Allied Forces. Following Ling Yi's order, the entire Allied Forces charged frantically towards those of Myriad Demons Country, and, barring any mishaps, the downfall of Myriad Demons Country had become a certainty.
Shifting our focus back to Sun Wukong, after confronting Xi Zhao for several breaths, Sun Wukong was the first to launch an attack. With a flicker of Spatial Sand, Sun Wukong appeared behind the enormous serpent head, turned around, and with a clench of his left hand in the void, the fourth layer of the Seal Heavenly Stamp was forcefully activated. The gigantic serpent was immobilized for a breath's time—enough for Sun Wukong to swing his Jingu Bang in a sweeping motion from right to left.
However, the serpent this time was under Xi Zhao's complete control, and thus, Sun Wukong's Seal Heavenly Stamp could only immobilize it for a moment. As the Jingu Bang extended in an instant, poised to strike the serpent's body, the Burning Fire Stele on the serpent's forehead suddenly shone brightly. An instant later, a layer of blood-red scale armor appeared around the serpent's neck, blocking Sun Wukong's strike. The serpent's massive size made dodging entirely impossible.
Sun Wukong was able to understand and utilize the fourth layer of the Seal Heavenly Stamp so quickly, using Divine Sense to lock heaven and earth, because not long before, while he was reconstructing Ye Wu's flesh body, the Five-Colored Divine Stone within him melted. Or, more accurately, a part of it melted. Initially the size of a fist, the stone had now shrunk. The vanished portion became a set of memories, which allowed Sun Wukong to directly comprehend the fourth layer realm of Seal Heavenly Stamp.
Sun Wukong was uncertain to whom these memories belonged, and he couldn't even be sure they were memories because aside from the insight into and application of the fourth layer realms of Seal Heavenly Stamp, there was nothing else. Therefore, Sun Wukong felt it was more like an inheritance.
But why would there be such an inheritance within the Five-Colored Divine Stone? Wasn't it the stone used by Nuwa to mend the heavens? Could it be that the Five-Colored Divine Stone has a different origin altogether? (To be continued.
