Chapter 383: Hitting Your Sore Spot (9th Update)
"Who is Flying Bear? I am Flying Tiger!"
Clearly, a tiger with wings on the Demon Beast Continent is not called Flying Bear, but Flying Tiger. But whether it's called Flying Tiger or Flying Bear, Six-Eared Macaque doesn't care—he's determined to take this guy down!
"I don't care if you're Flying Tiger or Flying Bear, eat my strike!"
The Heaven-Supporting Iron Staff ignited with a streak of golden-red fire, it was True Solar Fire. Following Sun Wukong, Six-Eared Macaque had also grasped the true essence of True Solar Fire from the Eight-Nine Profound Skill and The Way of Transformation. The Alchemy Fire inside him had transformed into True Solar Fire, and unbeknownst to him, the missing heart meridian naturally deficient in Demon Clan members started to replenish itself, although he hadn't realized it yet.
A single strike was unleashed, and the power of the Heaven-Shocking Domain directly surged into it. The Black Demon Tiger swung its tiger claw, colliding with the Heaven-Supporting Iron Staff, which let out a painful howl as Six-Eared Macaque sent it flying with a direct strike.
"Hey, not bad, quite resilient, come again!"
Six-Eared Macaque chuckled slyly, his figure not pausing for a moment as he chased after the Black Demon Tiger, wielding his Heaven-Supporting Iron Staff in wide, heavy swings, bombarding its entire body with an extremely ferocious assault.
"What's gotten into Six-Eared, attacking so fiercely?"
Heaven-Defying Demon Emperor Mu Chenxuan, observing from afar, sensed the intense battle between Six-Eared Macaque and the Black Demon Tiger—or rather, the severe beating Six-Eared Macaque was giving to the Black Demon Tiger—and couldn't help but be surprised. It was rare to see Six-Eared Macaque show such malice toward anyone. What had this Black Tiger Demon Beast done to provoke Six-Eared Macaque?
Bull Demon King also noticed Six-Ears' unusual behavior but a smile curved on his lips. Unlike Heaven-Defying Demon Emperor Mu Chenxuan, he knew why Six-Eared Macaque was so ferocious—it must be for Leng Xuan!
To be honest, if Six-Eared Macaque hadn't beaten him to it, he would have picked that Black Tiger Demon Beast himself!
"I need to step it up, can't let Six-Ears outdo me!"
Seeing the increasing ferocity of Six-Eared Macaque's attack, both Bull Demon King and Heaven-Defying Demon Emperor Mu Chenxuan grew serious. There was a competition between them, and falling too far behind Six-Eared Macaque would be too embarrassing!
In the depths of the Demon Tide, above the clouds in midair, Sun Wukong and the Heavenly Demon Dragon fiercely clashed with each other, then separated, standing dozens of meters apart, facing each other.
"Sun Wukong, we had an agreement, why have you reneged on your promise and come here to be my enemy?"
The Heavenly Demon Dragon looked at Sun Wukong and asked with resentment, secretly horrified. It hadn't been long since they last met, yet Sun Wukong's cultivation strength had improved tremendously, especially since despite being only at a Demon Emperor level, he had already mastered real Domain Power, matching him in combat power completely!
If he had known it would be like this, he would never have negotiated with Sun Wukong in the first place. He would've just dealt a vicious blow and killed him, suffering little more than injuries, rather than ending up in the situation they faced today! Enjoy new tales from My Virtual Library Empire
"Reneged on my promise?"
Sun Wukong sneered, "Heavenly Demon Dragon, my initial promise to you was to help you deal with Jidu Demon Emperor, and I've already done that! Jidu Demon Emperor is dead, he no longer exists in this world, my promise to you was fulfilled long ago, we owe each other nothing. This time, I'm only helping Demon Ancestor deal with you, how is that reneging on my promise?"
Pausing for a moment, Sun Wukong quickly scanned the Heavenly Demon Dragon from head to toe, then snorted coldly, "Moreover, you've always been plotting against me, do you really think I don't know? Daring to use me like a pawn, today I'll let you know what it means to play with fire and get burned! Enough talk, take this!"
A cold shout rang out, and Sun Wukong's figure once again rushed towards the Heavenly Demon Dragon. Their previous exchange had been merely a test of each other's strengths, and he had yet to show his true capabilities!
"Heaven-Breaking Domain!"
Hurrying to face the Heavenly Demon Dragon, Sun Wukong moved as if to strike, but stopped just as the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod was about to swing out. The Heaven-Breaking Domain spread from the rod, extending to a radius of thirty feet, enveloping the Heavenly Demon Dragon within it. The force of the domain momentarily halted the dragon, exposing a flaw.
"What an opportunity!"
Golden light flashed in Sun Wukong's eyes. He swung the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod hard at the flaw beside the body of the Heavenly Demon Dragon, aiming right below the dragon's neck at its reverse scale!
In facing the Demon Ancestor Luo Hu, Sun Wukong dared not carelessly activate his Void-Breaking Divine Eye, as Luo Hu's understanding of the Great Dao had reached a very high level. A mere thought from him could manipulate the Primordial Dao to form barriers, and any carelessness could backfire on Sun Wukong. However, he held no such reservations against this Heavenly Demon Dragon.
This Heavenly Demon Dragon's physical strength had merely reached the Demon Saint level, and its understanding of the Heavenly Dao Laws was only equivalent to that of a typical Quasi-Saint. It was utterly incapable of seeing through the Void-Breaking Divine Eye, let alone resisting it. Once he activated the Void-Breaking Divine Eye to its Fourth Phase, Void-Breaking Starry Eyes state, Sun Wukong could clearly see every move the dragon made. He certainly wouldn't miss such an opening.
Boom!
The Heavenly Demon Dragon was suddenly suppressed by the domain power, and by the time it reacted, Sun Wukong's attack had already reached close range, leaving no time to dodge. The Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod struck fiercely at its neck's critical reverse scale, emitting a dull thud and causing the dragon to let out a thunderous roar of pain as its body was thrown backward. Until now, this was the first time it had suffered under Sun Wukong's hand!
"Sun Wukong, I will flay you alive!"
It has long been said: "A dragon has a reverse scale, touch it and you will incur its wrath."
The reverse scale is the hardest part of the scale armor on a dragon's body, because it is a dragon's vital point. No matter how dragons cultivate, unless they attain saint hood, they cannot rid themselves of this vulnerability. Merely having physical strength at the Demon Saint level, the Heavenly Demon Dragon's Primordial Spirit was still far from achieving Saint hood. This inevitable weak spot was brutally exploited by Sun Wukong's strike. Chaos Primordial Force penetrated through the reverse scale into the dragon's body, nearly causing it to vomit blood, inflaming its rage.
"Flay Old Sun alive? Heh, let's see if you have the skills to do so! Old Sun targeted your reverse scale precisely!"
Sun Wukong spat disdainfully. He wasn't brought up to be frightened by mere threats—if mere words could slaughter a person repeatedly, he would have died countless times over!
While sneering, Sun Wukong didn't pause for a moment. His figure flickered as he chased after the dragon, swinging his staff again towards the reverse scale.
"You strike again? You're bullying the dragon too far!"
The rage of the Heavenly Demon Dragon soared. Was Sun Wukong addicted to hitting it? After hitting its reverse scale once, he still aimed for a second strike. Did he really think this higher-stage beast was made of mud?
Hum~!
An intense wave suddenly erupted from the Heavenly Demon Dragon, indiscriminately spreading in all directions. Mid-swing, Sun Wukong's heart skipped a beat as he sensed something amiss. He forcefully retracted the swing of the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod and held it in front of his chest.
