Great Demon Sun Wukong

```

It must be said that the tree spirit indeed had some tricks up its sleeve. Warriors with over a hundred thousand Dao Patterns were formidable, although the strongest among them only possessed Eight Patterns. But this force could absolutely sweep through any Intermediate World, and even against a generally powerful High Level World, a battle was not out of the question. Each of these hundred thousand warriors was fearless in the face of death and their coordination with one another surely far surpassed that of ordinary armies. In the Outer City of the Netherworld World, those with more than Seven Patterns were already considered the pinnacle of combat power.

In the past, when Sun Wukong had taken over Battle Demon City, those with more than Seven Patterns were regarded as trump cards. From this, one could see just how much various forces valued warriors above Seven Patterns. Now, among these one hundred thousand people, there were at least eight thousand with more than Seven Patterns, and more than a thousand were Eight Patterns Supremes. And this was precisely why, upon seeing these hundred thousand, the little monkey immediately soared into the skies, planning to pull Wukong and retreat.

Sun Wukong obviously saw the nearly ten thousand Supreme warriors above Seven Patterns, but he didn’t heed the little monkey’s advice to turn and flee; instead, battle intent flared in his eyes instantly. Since his goal this time was to subjugate, running away was naturally not an option. Moreover, to make the opponent willingly follow him back to Netherworld Palace, he had to defeat them at their strongest. Otherwise, this operation would be completely meaningless. Besides, according to the little monkey, among those four, this tree spirit was the weakest.

If he couldn’t even defeat the weakest among them, how would he fight the other three? Sun Wukong looked up at the little monkey, who seemed rather anxious in the sky, and gave him a reassuring glance. Then, golden light burst forth from his eyes, and from the Heaven and Earth Dao Eye above his head, another beam of golden light shot out, crossing a distance of a kilometer and engulfing one of those hundred thousand in green clothes.

As those two beams of golden light enveloped that person, the complexion of the green-clad individual drastically changed, and the face that had been full of confidence turned pale in an instant. With the little monkey’s intelligence, he instantly knew what needed to be done and kicked his legs in mid-air, transforming into a yellow streak that rushed towards the green-clad individual shrouded in golden light.

In the presence of the Heaven and Earth Dao Eye of the Nine Decisions, all methods of concealment were futile. With just one look, Sun Wukong had accurately identified Ye Zi among the hundred thousand dressed in green. The reason for the golden light was to create an opportunity for the little monkey. As long as he didn’t voluntarily retract the Heaven and Earth Dao Eye, the golden light would persistently envelop the tree spirit Ye Zi, which was akin to lighting a bright lamp for the little monkey in the darkness. Although he was still somewhat wary about those hundred thousand incarnates with small mustaches, driven by his trust in Sun Wukong, he charged forth without looking back.

Just as Sun Wukong believed that the little monkey would never harm him no matter what, the little monkey also had a hundred percent trust in Sun Wukong. As the little monkey moved, Sun Wukong suddenly shouted, "Leave that tree spirit to you, I’ll take care of the rest!" These words were uttered with immense authority. Had anyone else said this, the little monkey would have scoffed. Those were warriors with over a hundred thousand Dao Patterns among them, with ten thousand of them having more than Seven Patterns. Although they were all incarnates, their aura was indistinguishable from that of real people.

One person taking on a hundred thousand? If that wasn’t a joke, then it was seeking death. Didn’t he see that even he was planning to temporarily retreat? However, when these words came from Sun Wukong, the little monkey didn’t harbor the slightest doubt. He didn’t respond but instead accelerated again, and his slender figure had already arrived in front of the tree spirit Ye Zi. By the time Ye Zi had regained his composure from the initial panic caused by the golden light, he was calm.

He had thought the golden light was some kind of powerful attack or binding technique, but it turned out it only revealed his position. Although this move had cost him a lot, being an ancient and peculiar tree, his greatest strength was recovery. In fact, from the moment the golden light appeared until the little monkey dashed in front of him, within that brief breath of time, at least ninety percent of the spiritual power and physical strength he had exhausted in empowering the army had been restored. And after confronting the little monkey for roughly three breaths, he had returned to his peak condition.

"I have to admire your recovery ability; it’s practically tantamount to cheating. Ye Zi, we’re acquainted through combat, and I didn’t come here this time to rob you. Besides taking revenge for the last time you beat me, I actually want to recruit you. With your strength, it’s simply a waste to serve in this desolate place, don’t you think?"

But Ye Zi just laughed loudly, "Recruit me? Don’t indulge in wishful thinking. You’re just coveting my treasure. Enough talk, if you want to fight, let’s fight!" After speaking, Ye Zi suddenly became serious, then drove his wooden staff, which looked like a dead twig, into the ground, brought his hands together, and began to chant something softly.

Watching Ye Zi’s actions, the little monkey couldn’t help the muscles in his face twitch, "Seriously, using your ultimate move right out of the gate, do you even understand the rules here? I’ve already said I didn’t come to steal your stuff this time, yet you’re still going all out against me. It seems I have to show you just how formidable I am or you might really think I’m afraid of you!" Overcome with emotion, the little monkey used the term "I" indignantly, clearly enraged.

The little monkey’s shock and anger were not unwarranted for he had suffered under this move before. Although he had traded blow for blow with the tree spirit, exchanging injuries, Ye Zi’s were more severe than his. However, he did not possess Ye Zi’s phenomenal recovery ability and had ultimately been forced to flee. Seeing the tree spirit unleash its ultimate move straight away, the little monkey could no longer keep his composure.

His figure instantly retreated, stopping nearly two hundred meters from Ye Zi. After holding his breath and concentrating for about three breaths, the little monkey’s hands suddenly struck his body dozens of times. With each hit, his aura grew more terrifying, and his form began to enlarge. His originally slim figure was now morphing into something stronger and more impressive. Meanwhile, as Ye Zi planted the wooden staff into the ground and recited something rapidly, it grew at a visibly fast pace, turning into a towering tree kilometers high in the blink of an eye.

It was then apparent that this tree was a phoenix tree—or more accurately, a Seven-Colored Phoenix-Calling Phoenix Tree. As the wooden staff transformed into a giant tree, the once frail little monkey had now turned into a five-meter tall behemoth with muscles like steel bands and dark brown fur. The most striking features were his incredibly long and powerful arms. This was the true form of the little monkey, the Through-back Ape.

As the true form of the Through-back Ape, the aura released by the little monkey was indescribably terrifying, deep and abyssal, and what’s most important, within that aura there was the slightest sense of Heaven and Earth Pressure. If Six-Eared Macaque and others were to see the little monkey now, they would undoubtedly exclaim in shock. The little monkey’s aura at this moment bore a striking resemblance to that of the Judge, although not as strong. @@novelbin@@

With a slight movement of his arms, the little monkey did not attack immediately. Instead, he observed the towering tree leisurely. The giant tree didn’t keep the little monkey waiting for long; it started radiating rings of pale red light. As the glow intensified, a faint red phantom slowly appeared in the tree’s canopy. As the tree’s radiance grew even stronger, the phantom became clearer and clearer until the tree ceased emitting light, at which point the red phantom had completely formed into a phoenix, its body also spanning over a kilometer.

Once the phoenix took shape, a scorching aura swept over the place. However, the little monkey easily dispelled it with a wave of his hand. Then the colossal phoenix let out a cry, its clear and resonant call causing a chorus of birds in the vicinity to join in. Despite the cacophony, none could overshadow the cry from the kilometer-long phoenix.

Sun Wukong had naturally heard the cry. He had just summoned the Nine Decisions Vajra Ape and the Twelve Ancestral Witches and was about to charge into the army of a hundred thousand, with the Wonderful Bodhi Tree floating by his side. Yet, hearing that piercing cry and sensing the aura of the phoenix, he froze and then swiftly looked up at the creature, furrowing his brows.

But the phoenix paid no mind to Sun Wukong’s thoughts. After its cry, it swooped down at the little monkey with its wings, instantly creating two tornadoes that rolled toward the little monkey. Now back in his true form, the little monkey did not dodge but threw a punch, obliterating the tornadoes before they could even touch him.

Just then, the two dissipated tornadoes suddenly merged into one and exploded with a boom.

Sun Wukong’s pupils contracted, nearly crying out in shock, as he suddenly remembered the phoenix was identical to the Phoenix Illusion that the Flame God used for protection in battle. Moreover, the way the tornado exploded was exactly like the abilities the Flame God had obtained after returning from Fangcun Palace!
