Rebirth in Journey to the West: Sun Wukong

Chapter 325: Chapter 325 Fierce Battle with the Heavenly Demon Dragon (Third Update)

“Aah~!”

Upon seeing Heaven-Defying Demon Emperor Mu Chenxuan and his two companions fly out of the Nine Nether Demon Cave’s entrance, a chilling murderous intent suddenly surged in the eyes of the Heavenly Demon Dragon, who let out a long skyward chant and spat out three whirlwinds toward them.

“Demon’s Grief Domain!”

“Great Strength Domain!”

“Heaven-Shocking Domain!”

The three, not daring to be negligent, immediately activated their respective Domain Power, abruptly releasing it outward. When the whirlwinds entered their respective domains, they were immediately suppressed by the Domain Power, both their speed and strength greatly diminished, allowing the three men to easily shatter them.

“Even the over-leveled Demonic Beasts of the Demon Saint level are nothing more! We might have overestimated it before!”

After breaking through the attack of the Heavenly Demon Dragon’s whirlwinds, the Six-Eared Macaque’s confidence soared, and he wielded his Heaven-supporting Iron Staff to pounce toward the Heavenly Demon Dragon.

“Aah~!”

The Heavenly Demon Dragon roared angrily and swung its body, lashing its tail towards the Six-Eared Macaque, who dodged with a swift twist of his form. During their first encounter, Six-Eared Macaque knew nothing about the Heavenly Demon Dragon, and back then he was merely at the Da Luo Golden Immortal Realm and had not reached the verge of Quasi-Saint; his divine hearing detected the attack method of the Heavenly Demon Dragon, but his physical response couldn’t keep up, and he was sent flying with a flick of a tail. But now, things had changed. If the Heavenly Demon Dragon thought it could deal with him just by swinging its tail, it was sorely mistaken!

“Heaven-Shocking Thirty-Six Sticks!”

Giant shadows of the staff appeared in mid-air, bombarding the Heavenly Demon Dragon. Caught off guard by the Six-Eared Macaque’s evasion, the dragon was struck directly, and several of its scale armor plates on the side were blasted open by the relentless shadow of the staff, blood spraying everywhere.

“Aah!”

In pain, the Heavenly Demon Dragon’s movements suddenly quickened, its tail smashing again towards the Six-Eared Macaque’s back. This time, the Six-Eared Macaque couldn’t dodge and had no choice but to hold the Heaven-supporting Iron Staff horizontally across his chest to brace for the hit.

Boom!

The Heavenly Demon Dragon’s tail slammed fiercely onto the Heaven-supporting Iron Staff held by the Six-Eared Macaque. The Six-Eared Macaque felt an unstoppable force transferring from the staff, knocking him and his staff into his own body, sending him flying out with a muffled groan.

“Bull Demon King’s Heaven-Shaking Strike!”

Just as the Heavenly Demon Dragon was about to continue its attack, the Bull Demon King’s attack arrived. His iron rod, imbued with terrifying strength, transformed into the phantom of a white ox charging fiercely toward the Heavenly Demon Dragon, as if it had the momentum to poke a hole through the heavens themselves. The dragon had to abandon the pursuit of the Six-Eared Macaque to turn and defend against the Bull Demon King’s ultimate move.

The giant phantom of the white ox collided with the Heavenly Demon Dragon. The body of the Demon Dragon shook violently, a bit dazed by the Bull Demon King’s strike, but the phantom of the ox also dissipated. The Bull Demon King’s iron rod was knocked spinning into the air, and the Bull Demon King himself retreated more than a dozen steps in mid-air before stabilizing his figure and, with a thought, recaptured the iron rod into his hand.

“Demon God’s Grief!”

Heaven-Defying Demon Emperor Mu Chenxuan also launched an attack on the Heavenly Demon Dragon, the great halberd in his hands suddenly enlarging to the size of a mountain and viciously chopping down toward the dragon’s head, bringing forth a black and red demon light.

Boom!

Just as the Heavenly Demon Dragon recuperated from the dizziness, its head took another heavy blow from Heaven-Defying Demon Emperor Mu Chenxuan. The huge body could no longer sustain itself and crashed down from mid-air into the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

“Now’s our chance, the perfect opportunity, let’s go!”

The Bull Demon King bellowed, this attack being their ultimate move striking the Heavenly Demon Dragon by surprise, momentarily bewildering the dragon. But the Bull Demon King knew that such an attack wouldn’t be enough to defeat the Heavenly Demon Dragon; at most, it caused minor injuries. Once the dragon recovered its senses, the onslaught it would unleash would be catastrophic, something they couldn’t withstand!

Escaping was the smartest move!

The Six-Eared Macaque mounted the Somersault Cloud, with the Bull Demon King and Heaven-Defying Demon Emperor Mu Chenxuan each riding their own clouds, fleeing into the distance. They intended to leave the Myriad Beast Mountains first; any direction would do!

“Aah~!”

The dragon’s chanting rose again as the Heavenly Demon Dragon flew up from the ground. Watching the fleeing figures of the Six-Eared Macaque and his two companions, it fumed with indignation. Since becoming the ruler of Myriad Beast Mountains, it had never been humiliated like this – how could it let the three just escape so easily?

With the dragon chants of the Heavenly Demon Dragon, roars of Demonic Beasts echoed throughout the Myriad Beast Mountains in response to the dragon’s command. Every beast emerged from their hiding, rushing menacingly towards the fleeing trio of Heaven-Defying Demon Emperor Mu Chenxuan.

The beasts that lived deep in the heart of the Myriad Beast Mountains were powerful, among which a Dark Nether Phoenix, a Blackwater Serpent with three heads, and a Dark Nether Tiger with demon patterns all possessed the cultivation of Demon Emperor Rank. As they burst out from their lairs, they charged toward Heaven-Defying Demon Emperor Mu Chenxuan and his party, blocking their path of escape.

“Damn it, get out of my way!”

The three from Heaven-Defying Demon Emperor Mu Chenxuan raged, each wielding their weapon and fiercely striking the three Demon Emperor rank demonic beasts. They couldn’t afford to be delayed by these creatures for too long; otherwise, once the Heavenly Demon Dragon caught up to them, they’d truly have no chance of escape!

“Cloning Divine Powers!”

Six-Eared Macaque used his Cloning Divine Powers, and the Bull Demon King let out a thunderous roar, revealing his true white ox form of the Heaven-shaking Divine Ox, taking on the Black Water Hydra and the Dark Nether Striped Tiger respectively. As for the Dark Nether Phoenix, that was left to Heaven-Defying Demon Emperor Mu Chenxuan to handle.

Without any pleasantries or pre-battle buildup, Six-Eared Macaque and his peers collided fiercely with the three Demon Emperor rank beasts, all unleashing their strongest powers in a ferocious onslaught. The Black Water Hydra, following the Heavenly Demon Dragon’s orders, was to halt the three, while they were set on breaking through the blockade to flee for their lives, with both parties using their ultimate moves right from the start.

“Screech!”

The Dark Nether Phoenix’s cultivation was no match for Heaven-Defying Demon Emperor Mu Chenxuan, not to mention that Mu Chenxuan had also engaged his domain power. Just two moves into the encounter, the Dark Nether Phoenix was hit in the left wing by Mu Chenxuan’s halberd, letting out a mournful cry as it plummeted towards the ground.

Six-Eared Macaque and his clones simultaneously unleashed the Heaven-Breaking Thirty-Six Sticks, smashing two heads of the Black Water Hydra into a bloody pulp. The remaining head, letting out a pained howl, no longer dared to block their path, staring at Six-Eared Macaque in resentment as he dashed by.

The white ox true form of the Bull Demon King’s Heaven-shaking Divine Ox collided fiercely with the Dark Nether Striped Tiger. A powerful force erupted from the bull’s horns, sending the tiger flying away. Bolstered by the Great Strength Domain, the Bull Demon King had regained his true form of the white ox. In a contest of pure strength, even the Heavenly Demon Dragon might not be much stronger than him, let alone the Dark Nether Striped Tiger, which was swiftly defeated in the clash.

However, this delay allowed the Heavenly Demon Dragon to catch up, his Divine Sense firmly locking onto the trio and exhaling a flame that swiftly spread into a spherical shape, trapping the three within a giant fireball.

“This is bad, it’s the Nine Nether Demon Fire! This creature can actually control the Nine Nether Demon Fire; we’re in trouble now!”

A sense of dread sank in Heaven-Defying Demon Emperor Mu Chenxuan’s heart. The Heavenly Demon Dragon’s physical strength was already at the Demon Saint level, far more formidable than theirs, and now coupled with this Nine Nether Demon Fire, the offensive power was increased manyfold. Now encircled by the Nine Nether Demon Fireball, they found themselves unable to flee.

“We must join forces to break this fireball barrier; otherwise, we’re done for!”

Six-Eared Macaque’s ears twitched; using his divine hearing, he eavesdropped on the Heavenly Demon Dragon’s thoughts. This creature intended to use the Nine Nether Demon Fire to trap them and burn them to death for refinement, precluding any chance they had of escaping back to the Nine Nether Demon Cave.

“Heaven-Breaking Thirty-Six Sticks!”

“Bull Demon’s Heaven-Shaker!”

“Demon God’s Grief!”

All three at once unleashed their ultimate moves, targeting one point on the Nine Nether Demon Fire fireball, and with the combined effort of the three masters, they finally blasted a gap through it and burst out together.

“You dare injure the precious body of this emperor; today, I shall devour each and every one of you, and I will not let you go!”

The Heavenly Demon Dragon’s furious Divine Sense voice echoed as Six-Eared Macaque and his peers exchanged glances, somewhat surprised. This was the first time they had heard the Heavenly Demon Dragon speak, although it was only through Divine Sense, but it was enough to indicate that the Heavenly Demon Dragon was not only advanced in cultivation and strong in power, his intelligence was also not lacking — it just had not been revealed before.@@novelbin@@

“It’s you who have been relentlessly chasing us; do you really expect us to stand still and let you devour us?”

Six-Eared Macaque snorted derisively, brandishing his Heaven-supporting Iron Staff horizontally, “Enough with the nonsense, if you want to fight, then fight. I want to see if you truly have the appetite to swallow us whole!”

“You little pest, you’ve genuinely enraged this emperor, starting with you!”

The Heavenly Demon Dragon’s form flickered, with black Demon Thunder and almost tangible Wind Blades appearing on its body, merging with the Nine Nether Demon Fire to form a gigantic Light Sphere roiling with thunder, lightning, and fire, spinning rapidly towards Six-Eared Macaque, who let out a mighty roar, swinging his Heaven-supporting Iron Staff at the Light Sphere.

Within the forests of the Myriad Beast Mountains, Sun Wukong rode on the back of the Thunderclap Demon Dragon, speeding towards the forbidden Nine Nether Demon Cave. Suddenly, he heard the rumbling sounds of a intense battle ahead and felt the fierce Energy Fluctuations surging straight towards him.

There was fierce fighting ahead. This Energy Fluctuation gave Sun Wukong a familiar sensation – it was Heaven-Defying Demon Emperor Mu Chenxuan, Bull Demon King, and Six-Eared Macaque they were engaged in combat!

“This, this is the Heavenly Demon Dragon’s presence!”

The Thunderclap Demon Dragon’s limbs went weak, and they fell to the ground, lying motionless and not daring to move.

“Forget it, today I’ll spare you this once. Off you go, no need to escort me any further!”
