Great Demon Sun Wukong

As soon as Sun Wukong's words fell, everyone instantly became tense, finally encountering the enemy. For them, who were originally ferocious beasts, battle was their greatest pleasure. Having said that, Sun Wukong had already transformed into the Chaos Giant state, with the Jingu Bang already in his hands. "Ye Zi will handle our healing and recovery. There are only two people above us; we don't all need to go. Dragon Emperor and I will take one each. Hei Kui, Wu Ming, and Hidden Mountain, along with Ming Tiekuang, you four pay attention not to let those two escape and also watch for other hidden enemies around. Those two above are the big fish!"

While speaking, Sun Wukong had already soared into the sky, closely followed by the Dragon Emperor, who now wielded the Golden Dragon Spear. This was their first battle, and not only was the Dragon Emperor ambitious and proud, but so were Wu Ming and the others—they would give it their all. Otherwise, losing this first fight would be a real disgrace. Hence, the Dragon Emperor had no intention of underestimating the enemy. Ye Zi, on the other hand, was slightly frustrated. His brother Ye Wu had not yet recovered. While he could handle ordinary Nine Patterns Supremes with his abilities, if faced with a true powerhouse, he would merely be an onlooker. Of course, if driven into a corner, Ye Zi wouldn't hold back; although he definitely couldn't defeat the adversary, killing him would be even harder than defeating the Dragon Emperor.

The serpent's body might be ten thousand meters tall, but the likes of Sun Wukong and his companions were superpowerful beings—a blink of an eye, and Sun Wukong was already on the giant serpent. Then, several other figures flashed by, and Dragon Emperor and the others also arrived. Opposite their group of eight stood Ling Weiyang, the Green Emperor, and Bai Zhaoju, the White Emperor. Seeing Sun Wukong and his group's sudden arrival, Ling Weiyang was not too surprised. Rising calmly, he said to Sun Wukong, "I didn't expect it to be you, but these few beside you are quite unfamiliar."

At that moment, when Sun Wukong saw Ling Weiyang and Bai Zhaoju, his initially fluctuating mood quickly calmed down. Ignoring Ling Weiyang, he chuckled and then addressed Bai Zhaoju, "Oh, your arm grew back? Are you a gecko, able to regenerate limbs? But no matter, this time, I will help you remove it again." Bai Zhaoju already loathed Sun Wukong to the extreme. In their last battle, Bai Zhaoju had his arms destroyed, a humiliation that was unbearable. Although he later regrew new and even stronger arms through a secret technique, the humiliation could only be washed away with the fresh blood of Sun Wukong and Zhibei.

Without any intention of further conversation, Bai Zhaoju moved, transforming into a white light that flashed several times as he pounced toward Sun Wukong. Watching the furiously charging Bai Zhaoju, Wu Ming, Ye Zi, Hei Kui, Hidden Mountain, and Ming Tiekuang took coordinated steps back, while Dragon Emperor didn't retreat but instead circled to the other side. They had already received Sun Wukong's instructions: leave the one in white to him.

Dragon Emperor may have dodged Bai Zhaoju, but he did not stop. Twisting in mid-air, he hurled the Golden Dragon Spear in his hand towards Ling Weiyang. Ling Weiyang had been keeping an eye on Dragon Emperor and now faced with the spear charged with a sharp and intense aura, he did not dodge but instead reached out into the void. A purple gold halberd materialized in his hand.

This halberd, acquired as the seal on his companion weapon loosened through the evolved power of the Annihilation Nine Headed Serpent, allowed the Formless Divine Weapon to manifest as the Purple Gold Halberd for battle. This directly increased Ling Weiyang's combat power by more than thirty percent. His companion weapon, the Formless Divine Weapon, was actually the divine weapon that Dao Zhun had reforged using twelve Domain Instruments as a catalyst, the one that killed Underworld Venerate.

Powerful as this divine weapon was, could the body of Underworld Venerate be easily slain? After Dao Zhun used the Formless Divine Sword to slay Underworld Venerate, the sword couldn't withstand the terrible force and broke in half. The second half of the broken Formless Divine Sword merged with Ling Weiyang while he was still within a Kirin egg, becoming his companion divine weapon.

Its nature altered by Ling Weiyang's influence, the base form of the weapon changed from a broken sword to the purple gold halberd. However, the power of this halberd was not much weaker than before. After all, the Purple Gold Halberd had absorbed the purest bloodline power of the Purple Gold Kirin. And now, Ling Weiyang could finally wield it. Before this, he could only use the power of the Formless Divine Weapon to conjure various weapons for battle, so he couldn't unleash his full combat power.

It's worth mentioning that the Demon Monarch of the Annihilation Demon Nation, the strongest entity of the Nine Great Divine Kingdoms, wielded Formless Vanishing, which was the front half of the broken Formless Divine Weapon obtained by Dao Zhun; the Demon Monarch reforged it into two azure ring-shaped weapons.

As the Formless Purple Gold Halberd appeared, Sun Wukong's pupils suddenly constricted, and then those eyes, burning with crimson flames, stared intently at the halberd in Ling Weiyang's hand. He didn't even get a chance to block the palm strike from Bai Zhaoju and was directly hit in the chest, causing him to stagger backward three steps. His chest surged with blood, and his ribs ached dully. Yet his gaze remained fixed on the Purple Gold Halberd in Ling Weiyang's hand.

"Ling Weiyang, where did you get this weapon? Where did it come from?" Sun Wukong seemed to go insane as he flashed in white light and appeared behind Ling Weiyang, sweeping his Jingu Bang horizontally in an immediate attack. Ling Weiyang was taken aback but reacted quickly. Twisting his body, he had the Purple Gold Halberd positioned before him in time to block the sweep of Sun Wukong's Jingu Bang. Sensing Sun Wukong's craziness, Ling Weiyang frowned deeply but still responded to the question: "This is my companion divine weapon, why do you ask?"

Upon hearing Ling Weiyang's words, Sun Wukong's body stiffened, his eyes filled with pain. Ling Weiyang, with his rich combat experience, sensed the sluggishness in Sun Wukong's movements and didn't hesitate to flip his long halberd, sending Sun Wukong's Jingu Bang flying. Then, raising his arm, he thrust the Purple Gold Halberd backward towards the left waist; if the blow landed, Sun Wukong would undoubtedly suffer grievous injuries.

However, a golden light flashed, and the Dragon Emperor had arrived. The previously thrown Golden Dragon Spear was once again in his hand, blocking the backward thrust of the Purple Gold Halberd. At the same time, the Dragon Emperor shouted, "Sun Wukong, are you courting death?"

Startled by the Dragon Emperor's shout, Sun Wukong's eyes remained filled with pain, but he had regained his senses. Stepping aside, he crouched slightly, and purple mysterious patterns on his Jingu Bang spread instantly. Then the Jingu Bang swept toward Ling Weiyang's legs.

Yet this attack also failed to connect. Just as the Dragon Emperor had suddenly intercepted the Dragon Emperor's blow at a critical moment, Sun Wukong's horizontal sweep at Ling Weiyang's legs with the Jingu Bang was also stopped by Bai Zhaoju. However, Bai Zhaoju had no weapon in his hand; instead, it was his left hand that blocked the Jingu Bang, now covered with white dragon scales. The reason Sun Wukong recognized them as dragon scales was that Bai Zhaoju's entire right hand was a silvery-white dragon claw.

"Sun Wukong, I don't know what's wrong with you, but if you keep this up, you are bound to die today. Don't forget, your master is still missing!" The Dragon Emperor, with his Golden Dragon Spear fighting fiercely against Ling Weiyang's Purple Gold Halberd, couldn't help but raise his voice again when he saw Sun Wukong freezing in place once more. But this time Sun Wukong seemed not to hear him; he let Bai Zhaoju's silvery-white dragon claw grasp his chest directly, leaving five deep claw marks on his torso.

Seeing that Sun Wukong didn't resist, Bai Zhaoju was overjoyed. He didn't care about what was wrong with Sun Wukong; if you won't fight back nor dodge, then he would not be polite.

However, Bai Zhaoju's next attack missed, because just as his claw was about to hit Sun Wukong's neck, Ming Tiekuang moved. Even Hei Kui and Wu Ming beside him didn't see how he acted when Sun Wukong already appeared by their side. Next, Ming Tiekuang's figure emerged, and he glanced at Hei Kui and Wu Ming: "You two, go at it and try to finish him off. The Great Saint seems to be in trouble."

Hei Kui and Wu Ming nodded, then split and charged at Bai Zhaoju from both sides. Having coordinated for who knows how long, their teamwork was flawless. While Hei Kui focused on defense and Wu Ming took the offense, they quickly engaged Bai Zhaoju in fierce combat. Ye Zi didn't need Ming Tiekuang to say anything and had already placed a hand on Sun Wukong's back at the first chance. Suddenly, Ye Zi heard Sun Wukong seem to murmur something and she leaned closer to listen carefully. What she heard Sun Wukong mutter was actually… (To be continued.
