Great Demon Sun Wukong

Chapter 579 540: Life Countdown



If it were the old Sun Wukong, the king of the Demon Clan, he wouldn't have found anything strange about a serpent with nine heads, much less twenty, but now things were different. When Sun Wukong used his Divine Sense to probe into his Dantian and saw the Nine-Headed Serpent, no thicker than a little finger, he was profoundly shocked. He truly had enough of the Nine-Headed Serpent. However, upon further thought, Wukong found his nervous heart relaxing. Wasn't it just explained by Miss Yi Xuan that the Annihilation Nine-Headed Serpent had been divided into seven parts, each sealed within one of them to prevent its resurrection? It seemed that the little snake in his Dantian was the one sealed inside him. Yet, Wukong wondered, if it was sealed inside him, why did the little snake appear to be so free?

At this moment, Sun Wukong was preoccupied with Nuwa's instructions and didn't dwell on it. His Divine Sense exited his Dantian. As soon as his Divine Sense withdrew, the refined little Nine-Headed Serpent's nine heads all suddenly revealed a smile unique to humans, mixed with a touch of luck. Sun Wukong failed to notice this. After his Divine Sense returned, seeing the puzzled look from Yi Xuan, he hastily explained, "I was just surprised by the energy sealed inside my body. Oh, this, I should be able to give it back to you now."

Yi Xuan took the Five-Colored Divine Stone handed over by Sun Wukong and after carefully examining it, she exclaimed in astonishment, "Nuwa actually found it. Heavens, tell me, what is going on? How is Nuwa now? And where did you get this stone?" Feeling the surprise and urgency in Yi Xuan's voice, Sun Wukong didn't hesitate and recounted everything that happened in the Pangu Realm. He talked about the conflicts he had with the Taoist Sect, the sudden arrival of Half-step Great Path experts during the final battle, the incarnation of Chang'er as Heavenly Dao, the killing of Nuwa and Fuxi, and the message that Nuwa left imprinted in Sun Wukong's mind before she died.

Yi Xuan covered her mouth in shock after listening. While Wukong and Yi Xuan were talking, the others heard nothing. They had entered a state of cultivation right after the Great Formation was completed to consolidate their Cultivation that had decreased by a grade and to absorb and refine the soul energy of the Annihilation Nine-Headed Serpent within their bodies. Otherwise, their very foundations would likely be damaged, considering the harsh drop in their Cultivation grade.

When Sun Wukong finished talking about the Pangu Realm, Yi Xuan's eyes remained fixed on him. Feeling a bit uncomfortable under her gaze, she finally sighed and handed the Five-Colored Divine Stone back to Wukong, then said something he couldn't completely understand, "Keep this key with you. I believe that you are destined to be the ultimate Savior. Also, I think you need to return to the Pangu Realm now. One more thing to tell you is that the Five-Colored Divine Stone has an incredible function of temporarily storing one's Cultivation. I think you'll need it."

Having said this, Yi Xuan didn't linger and immediately flew in a direction, which happened to be where Chi Ghost and Wu Ming were, the place where the Spirit Controllers were suppressed under Blood Mist Mountain. As Yi Xuan flew in that direction, Wu Ming also headed swiftly towards Sun Wukong's location. Using Blood Mist Mountain to suppress the Spirit Controllers was just the first step in Wu Ming's plan for revenge. Since the Annihilation Nine-Headed Serpent was successfully sealed, Xi Zhao and Ling Weiyang had outlived their usefulness.

Looking at the Five-Colored Divine Stone in his hand, glowing with a colorless halo, Sun Wukong's face was filled with ecstasy. The stone not only possessed such an ability but could also store Cultivation. Did this mean Sun Wukong could use the Divine Stone to store his and Sha Wujing's Cultivation inside, then reduce their power to the level of a Saint of the Great Dao and return to the Pangu Realm? Thinking that the battle in the Patrolling Celestial World was nearly over and that he could soon return to the Pangu Realm, Sun Wukong could hardly contain his excitement. After so long, he wondered how Bajie and White Dragon were doing. And his master? Was he still asleep in the Peach Garden? And what about Fan Xin, had she managed to transform yet?

Although Sun Wukong was excited at the thought of returning to the Pangu Realm, his attention remained on the people cultivating in the center. At this time, a few people who were not part of the main formation had also arrived. Po Jun, Wan Jun, and others were visibly excited. What seemed like certain death had turned around, and the joy of their survival was indescribable. Glancing at the anxious Wan Jun, Wukong said, "Sword Hero and the others are fine, they've just dropped a grade in order to seal the Annihilation Nine-Headed Serpent and are now consolidating their Cultivation. How are Ye Zi and Yu Fan Taoist Monk doing?"

Wan Jun let out a sigh of relief, "They're both alright. In half a Chinese Hour, Yu Fan Taoist Monk should be out of danger. But Brother Ye Zi has used up a great deal of energy, he'll need to be well taken care of later on. Also, Brother Ye Wu and Wu Zhiqi are refining their Spiritual Power."

""

As soon as Wan Jun's words faded, everyone in the field woke up one after another. Xi Zhao and Ling Weiyang, upon awakening, immediately assumed combat stances and began searching for Yi Xuan. However, Yi Xuan had long since gone to seek out Chi Ghost. After failing to find her upon scanning the surrounding, they cautiously decided to retreat. It was a joke to think they had become friends with their enemies just because they helped her complete the great formation that successfully sealed the Annihilation Nine Headed Serpent. On the contrary, with their strength greatly reduced, now would be the perfect opportunity for Sun Wukong and the others to join forces and take them down.

As soon as Rogue Heart Sword Hero and the others got to their feet, they immediately surrounded Xi Zhao and Ling Weiyang, then turned their gaze to Sun Wukong. A slight smile appeared on the corner of Sun Wukong's mouth as he waved his hand and said, "Separate these two, someone wants to take their revenge." Before his words finished, Sun Wukong was the first to make a move. With his left hand still holding the Five-Colored Divine Stone, Sun Wukong simply stretched out his right hand and pointed towards Ling Weiyang.

The Seal Heavenly Stamp's fourth layer realm, Divine Sense locks everything. However, Ling Weiyang had incredibly sharp senses and managed to dodge it. But because Ling Weiyang concentrated all his attention on evading the Seal Heavenly Stamp, he neglected the others, and thus, was brutally kicked away by Sha Wujing. Afterward, Rogue Heart Sword Hero, Flame God, Sha Wujing, Wan Jun, Po Jun, Ye Wu, Nine Decisions Vajra Ape—anyone who still had some combat power—immediately chased after Ling Weiyang and pounced on him.

They would not waste a rare opportunity to bully the few with numbers. They naturally knew who Sun Wukong was referring to when he mentioned someone wanting revenge. Just as everyone chased after Ling Weiyang, Wu Ming's figure suddenly condensed in front of Xi Zhao. Looking at Xi Zhao, Wu Ming's expression was extremely ferocious, but he still turned his head and said to Sun Wukong, "Great kindness does not warrant thanks. I, Wu Ming, will always remember it, but alas, I can only repay you in the next life."

Because Wu Ming had turned to speak with Sun Wukong, Xi Zhao immediately seized the opportunity. He leapt up, his right knee bending sharply, and slammed it viciously against the right temple of Wu Ming. However, to Xi Zhao's surprise, Wu Ming merely tilted his head slightly and was not injured by the knee strike, nor did his figure waver at all. When had Wu Ming become so powerful? Even though Xi Zhao's strength had dropped a grade due to the sealing grand formation, he still possessed the strength at the peak of a Domain Lord. And Wu Ming, nothing more than a Nine Patterns Supreme.

Wu Ming slowly turned his head back, and Xi Zhao retreated with caution, watching Wu Ming warily. Wu Ming's eyes fixed on Xi Zhao, and he said word by word, "The killer shall always be killed. Xi Zhao, you should not have made the fatal mistake of killing Hidden Mountain. Unfortunately, it's too late for regrets." Despite feeling astonished, Xi Zhao still responded with a cold voice, "I, the Demon Monarch, have no regrets. A mere toad demon is killed and that's the end of it. No big deal."

Just as Xi Zhao's words fell, he felt a flash of red light before his eyes, followed by a sharp pain in his abdomen. He was thrown backward, crashing into a small mountain and embedding himself within it.

"Xi Zhao, you have angered me. Now, the countdown of your life begins!" (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Starting Point ) to cast your recommendation vote, monthly pass. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please browse m.qidian.com to read.)
