Chapter 359 - 348: What Happened to You?
Yes, it was only that one sentence. And what this sentence represented was not that Myriad Demons Country couldn’t hold on anymore, but rather, the Netherworld Alliance was in the same situation. On the side of Myriad Demons Country, without any reinforcements, the members of the Netherworld Alliance would have only one outcome, and that was annihilation! The power of Myriad Demons Country had exceeded everyone’s expectations. No one had anticipated that the two sides, originally equal in numbers, would find the Netherworld Alliance at a disadvantage right from the first skirmish. Qing Emperor Ling Weiyang and White Emperor Bai Zhaoju managed to hold off ten top-level Supreme Peak powerhouses, and among them were two Domain Lords. Of course, Divine Honor He Tu was merely a Split Soul, with roughly seventy percent of the original’s combat power, but his combat power still must not be underestimated.
So apart from the Netherworld Five Battle Generals and the Myriad Demons Country’s Five Demon Gods, the rest were in a situation where they were being passively beaten. At the outset, faced with such circumstances, Zhibei and the others were not too worried, because they were very confident in their own strength. Moreover, they all believed that Qing Emperor Ling Weiyang and White Emperor Bai Zhaoju were somewhat overestimating themselves, thinking that just the two of them could hold off a whole ten top-notch Supreme powerhouses—this was simply delusional. @@novelbin@@
About fifteen minutes later, Zhibei had not discovered any other arrangements made by Myriad Demons Country, meaning that everyone present was the entirety of Myriad Demons Country’s combat power. There were no reinforcements nor any hidden ambush forces, which meant that as long as they could exterminate all the individuals before them, Myriad Demons Palace could be broken. However, Zhibei knew that the purpose of this engagement was not to seize Myriad Demons Palace, but to once again stop the forces of Myriad Demons Country from going to the Annihilation Demon Nation to provide assistance.
In fact, the reason why Sun Wukong and his four companions attacked the Ancient Primordial World was firstly because Zhibei foresaw in his divination that there was someone in the Ancient Primordial World who shared a profound connection with Sun Wukong. This trip for Sun Wukong was mostly about this so-called profound connection. Zhibei’s divination also indicated that within the Ancient Primordial World there was someone who posed a significant threat. However, this threat was not absolute. It could potentially lead to the total annihilation of the Netherworld Alliance, or it could vanish into thin air for some reason or even become an aid to them.
Therefore, Sun Wukong ventured to the Ancient Primordial World at this critical juncture, and now Sun Wukong had also learned what this so-called connection and threat were. The connection, of course, referred to Sha Wujing, Sun Wukong’s third brother. As for the threat, Sun Wukong now knew, it was coming from that piece of the World Suppressing Stele, Water Attribute Ultimate Water No. 8.

Who could have imagined that this trial of the Patrolling Celestial World would reveal three World Suppressing Steles in succession? They were Sun Wukong’s Wasteland Soil No. 3 World Suppressing Stele, which was still in Sun Wukong’s possession; Sect Hierarch Tongtian’s Burning Fire No. 9 World Suppressing Stele, which had gone missing after the Sect Hierarch was killed; and now this Ultimate Water No. 8 World Suppressing Stele, held by Sha Wujing. The universe had only nine pieces in total, and now three had emerged in this Patrolling Celestial World. It could be said that if someone were to obtain these three steles of water, fire, and earth, as long as their own strength wasn’t too poor, then they would definitely possess the qualifications to challenge a Divine Kingdom.
If one side gained these Steles, there was no doubt that they would become a super overlord, and even unifying the entire universe would not be difficult. However, Sun Wukong had no particular designs on this Ultimate Water No. 8 World Suppressing Stele; on the contrary, he was more concerned with how to help Sha Wujing recover his memories. Half an hour later, Sun Wukong had already reached the outskirts of Myriad Demons Palace.
The distance from the Primordial Palace to the Myriad Demons Palace wasn’t short; under normal circumstances, it would take at least four or five days of continuous travel. However, in his urgency, Sun Wukong took just half an hour. This was naturally thanks to Sun Wukong’s comprehension and application of space, which allowed him to make short spatial jumps without the use of a teleportation array by setting up spatial nodes along the way.
It sounds complicated, but it’s actually quite simple—while en route to the Primordial Palace, Sun Wukong had set up many coordinate points, then used them for spatial jumps on his way back, hence turning a journey that would normally take four or five days into half an hour. Such a speed was truly inconceivable. This was all with the assumption that he was traveling at full speed; one could imagine just how vast the Patrolling Celestial World was.
However, such speed came with severe physical exhaustion for Sun Wukong, especially since he was bringing four others along, which required him to stop and rest upon reaching the outskirts of Myriad Demons Palace. A battle was definitely forthcoming, and he had to ensure his condition remained at its peak. Roughly fifteen minutes later, the group of five opened their eyes simultaneously. Having the Wonderful Bodhi Tree, a Supreme Treasure, Sun Wukong’s recovery capabilities were incomparable to others.
With the help of the Wonderful Bodhi Tree, the other four also recovered, and in just half a Chinese Hour, they were all back at their peak. Thanks to the connection between the doppelganger and the original body of Divine Honor He Tu, Ming Wanjie and the others had long been aware that Sun Wukong and his four companions had arrived. However, they needed a suitable opportunity to strike. They finally had a cavalry-like team at their disposal and wanted to make good use of its value.
Soon, the opportunity arose. Sun Wukong’s five had been informed of their arrival by He Tu’s doppelganger, so the group attacking Qing Emperor Ling Weiyang and White Emperor Bai Zhaoju consciously created openings for Sun Wukong’s group to launch a sneak attack. Besides Sun Wukong, there was also Divine Honor He Tu, a genuine Domain Lord Level powerhouse.
Finally, after Ming Wanjie recklessly took a hit from White Emperor Bai Zhaoju, Bai Zhaoju revealed a slight opening. In an instant, six chains as tough as diamonds burst forth from the ground beneath him. They were none other than the top-level presence within the Seal Heavenly Stamp. Those six diamond chains were the most Sun Wukong could summon, although he could forcefully bring forth a seventh, it would be strenuous to control against a powerhouse like White Emperor Bai Zhaoju—there was no room for the slightest error.
With the appearance of the six diamond chains, the earth beneath Bai Zhaoju rapidly collapsed, and two hands formed from Three Thousand Barren Sands appeared just in time, grabbing Bai Zhaoju’s ankles as he was momentarily distracted by the chains. At that moment, despite Bai Zhaoju’s desire to dodge, escape was impossible.
Unable to dodge, the only option was defense. Just as the diamond chains were about to entangle Bai Zhaoju, four bright red beams manifested out of nowhere, like walls, completely shielding him. The six chains wrapped around these wall-like beams. "Mountain of World Suppression, Cone Strike!" As soon as Sun Wukong’s voice rang out, all the Netherworld Alliance troops abandoned their current opponents and fled. Of course, the Netherworld Five Battle Generals were not among them, as they had long since disappeared from the battlefield, along with the Five Demon Gods from Myriad Demons Country.
Seeing the Netherworld Alliance troops suddenly abandoning their opponents and fleeing, even those attacking Qing Emperor Ling Weiyang collectively retreated, leaving the people of Myriad Demons Country confused. However, Ling Weiyang immediately realized the situation and ordered the retreat of Myriad Demons Country’s forces. Relying on his formidable strength and sharp combat instincts, he knew the Netherworld World’s troops wouldn’t retreat without good reason.
As both sides withdrew five thousand meters almost as if it had been agreed upon, leaving only Sun Wukong and White Emperor Bai Zhaoju on the battlefield, a stone the size of a palm suddenly appeared above Bai Zhaoju’s head. No, it was actually just a stone, an inverted triangular one with its sharp end pointed directly at Bai Zhaoju’s head.
As soon as the stone appeared, Bai Zhaoju sensed it and instinctively looked up, then he suddenly laughed, "So this is your ’Mountain of World Suppression’?"
But before the smile on Bai Zhaoju’s face dissipated, the palm-sized stone abruptly increased in size. In the blink of an eye, a massive mountain over three thousand meters tall towered above Bai Zhaoju. As it appeared, Bai Zhaoju felt a heavy weight upon him, and one of his legs gave in, kneeling down heavily.
