Urban Invincible Medical Divine

Chapter 251: Chapter 251 Fight as long as you can (2nd update, 3rd update will be uploaded before 6 am)

Throughout his journey, Sun Wukong had not encountered any opponents of note; aside from the owner of the sneaky palm strike at the beginning, the rest were all misshapen fruit, easily dispatched in two or three moves. Whether they were killed outright or injured and hurriedly teleported away, there wasn’t a single one that could last more than a couple of strikes. It was truly a bit dull—had he known it would be like this, he wouldn’t have asked Qin Feng so many questions!

Before realizing the special nature of this Mirror Space, Sun Wukong had felt a bit of apprehension but he quickly got used to it. Once accustomed, the thrill dissipated. The highest level of cultivation among those ambushers was that of a Taiyi Golden Immortal, mere fodder for Sun Wukong to dispatch at will, presenting no challenge whatsoever!

“Hum~!”

Just as Sun Wukong was grumbling discontentedly, the space fluctuated once more, and a tri-point double-edged sword thrust out from the front with ferocious power. Sun Wukong’s eyes brightened involuntarily, and with a flick of the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod in his hand, he parried the tip of the sword, feeling the immense force of their impact reverberate. A name surfaced in Sun Wukong’s mind.

“Erlang God Yang Jian?”

“Precisely, it is I! Long time no see, Sun Wukong!”

A figure passed through the unilateral spatial interface and appeared in front of Sun Wukong. Who else could it be but Erlang God Yang Jian?

He wore a flying phoenix soaring crown upon his head, clad in a suit of silver dragon scale armor, with a jade belt wrapped around his waist, and the tri-point double-edged sword in his hand. The vertical eye between his brows was already open, dazzling with flashes of divine light, making him look very majestic and extraordinary.

“Yang Jian, do you want to have a good and hearty fight with old Sun?”

A gleam of excitement flashed in Sun Wukong’s eyes. Just as he was lamenting the lack of worthy opponents, Erlang God Yang Jian had appeared. Now he could have a proper fight; his hands were itching fiercely!

“I merely came to greet you!”

Erlang God Yang Jian shook his head. “This is only the first trial; not a good place for combat. If you can enter the subsequent competition phases, then I will happily give you a proper challenge!”

“You won’t fight?”

A look of disappointment crossed Sun Wukong’s face. They had already met, yet Erlang God Yang Jian actually refused to fight! How preposterous, completely unreasonable!

“I’ve said it, this is not the right place for a fight. This one-way spatial interface could vanish at any moment, and then I’ll be pulled back into my own Mirror Space. Even if we did fight, it wouldn’t last long…”

“Then let it last as long as it can last! Take this!”

Sun Wukong, baring his teeth, cared nothing for whether it was a good place to fight. Regardless of how long they could fight, they should duke it out first!

Sun Wukong channeled the Chaos Primordial Force into the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod, and suddenly, True Solar Fire erupted fiercely along the body of the rod as he swung it around, parrying the tri-point double-edged sword. With a spin, he thrust toward the side of Erlang God Yang Jian’s waist.

“You unruly monkey, why can’t you ever listen? Fine, if you want to fight, I’ll keep you company. Come on!”

Never expecting Sun Wukong to outright ignore his words and launch straight into battle, Erlang God Yang Jian felt a rush of anger. With an angry shout, he swung his tri-point double-edged sword to block the strike from the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod, and after shaking off the blow, his movements swift as he launched into a furious attack on Sun Wukong.

Boom boom boom boom!

Moments later, the thunderous sounds of their weapons clashing, along with the dispersed Qi force, spread out in all directions. It was lucky that they were inside the Mirror Space, which was extremely resilient. Otherwise, if they were to have such an intense battle within the Three Realms, they might have destroyed several palaces in the Jade Emperor’s Heavenly Palace by now.

“Erlang God Yang Jian, you truly deserve to be our Heavenly Court’s leading War God, such might and terror!”

“The Great Sage Equalling Heaven Sun Wukong is also very strong! It seems these two are well-matched, a case of a meeting of equals. They are so evenly matched one cannot tell who is winning or losing!”

More than one unilateral spatial interface was connected to the Mirror Space where Sun Wukong was; as he and Erlang God Yang Jian clashed fiercely, two other spatial interfaces appeared. Two Heavenly Generals watched the intense battle between Sun Wukong and Erlang God Yang Jian, and without realizing it, they stretched their heads through the interfaces and appeared in Sun Wukong’s Mirror Space. After exchanging a glance and smiling, they began commenting on the fight.

“Hahaha! Thrilling, truly thrilling! Yang Jian, old Sun has long wanted to have a proper fight with you, to see how much you’ve improved from before, uh, from how you were originally. Now it seems, you’ve not been idle these years!”

Sun Wukong originally wanted to say how much stronger he was than in his past life but caught himself mid-sentence and swallowed the words back.

“Sun Wukong, there will be plenty of opportunities for combat. I feel my unilateral spatial interface is about to disappear!”

Erlang God Yang Jian furrowed his brow. Just like Sun Wukong’s Void-Breaking Divine Eye, his Heavenly Eye could sense the spatial fluctuations when the one-way spatial connection surfaced. Now these spatial fluctuations were rapidly weakening, signaling that the one-way spatial link between him and Sun Wukong was about to disappear, and he would be pulled back into his own mirror space.

As soon as he finished speaking, Erlang God Yang Jian’s figure began to blur. Sun Wukong swung his rod at him but hit thin air, as Erlang God Yang Jian had already been pulled back into his own mirror space.

“What a pity, such a shame! Why did he get pulled back so quickly?”

Sun Wukong growled in dissatisfaction. He had just started to loosen his muscles, enjoying the fight, when Erlang God Yang Jian vanished abruptly. It was as if he’d put all his effort into a punch only to hit cotton, leaving him feeling empty without a solid connection point, extremely uncomfortable.

“Forget it, Yang Jian was right; this isn’t the best place for a competition. When we reach the later challenges, there will naturally be opportunities for a good contest!”

Shaking his head, Sun Wukong temporarily suppressed his irritation and walked towards the front, intentionally exposing his back. He had already noticed the emergence of two spatial fluctuations, not far behind him to the left and right. Pretending to be unaware, he aimed to lure these two into making a sneak attack so he could vent his frustration. However, these two remained utterly silent, not making a move until the one-way spatial link had vanished, leaving Sun Wukong quite disappointed.

“What’s with people nowadays? Why so timid? Not straightforward at all!”

He huffed in dissatisfaction and continued walking forward. He was now not far from the exit’s radiant light, and in less than half a day, he would be able to leave.

While Sun Wukong was feeling irritated, the two Heavenly Court Generals who had just linked to Sun Wukong’s mirror space were inwardly rejoicing. Fortunately, it was the one-way spatial connection from their mirror space to Sun Wukong’s, not the other way around. Otherwise, could they still be so composed? At best, they might have been ejected from the inner space of the Investiture of the Gods.

Luckily, oh so luckily!

Half a day later, Sun Wukong arrived at the radiant exit. It was a five-colored Light Gate, and stepping through it would allow him to leave the Investiture of the Gods, having successfully passed this first challenge.

“Too easy, utterly uninteresting!”

After encountering Erlang God Yang Jian, Sun Wukong subsequently met several more adversaries, but like before, they were all lackluster, all Taiyi Golden Immortal Heavenly Generals. He hadn’t met a single participating Immortal; he wasn’t sure if it was good luck or bad luck, but Sun Wukong found it all rather unsatisfying.

Sighing in dejection, Sun Wukong was about to step through the Light Gate when a surge of extreme danger welled up inside him. Following this, spatial fluctuations occurred, and a blood-red, semi-transparent longsword suddenly thrust out from the ground at an angle. Before the longsword even reached him, Sun Wukong felt an intense, stabbing pain, as if his body was about to be ripped apart.

“No good, it’s the Sword of Trapping Immortals!”

He had only felt this sensation before from the Sword of Annihilation and the Sword of Slaying Immortals—this was one of the Four Swords of Immortal-Slaying, the Sword of Trapping Immortals!

“Mysterious Heaven Nine Transformations, White Cloud Smoke!”

The sharpness of the Four Swords of Immortal-Slaying couldn’t be resisted even by a Diamond Indestructible body, a fact well known to Sun Wukong, who didn’t dare to block it head-on. Immediately, he used the Mysterious Heaven Nine Transformations, White Cloud Smoke Body Technique, turning his body into a mist, allowing the sword to pass through his chest without touching him and reformed a zhang away. However, he couldn’t help but feel a pain in his chest. Touching it, he found a trickle of blood; the sharpness of the Sword of Trapping Immortals couldn’t be completely immune even to the White Cloud Smoke Body Technique!

“Who dares ambush your grandpa Sun?”@@novelbin@@

Enraged, Sun Wukong bellowed as he slammed his Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod, enveloped in fierce True Solar Fire, against the Sword of Trapping Immortals. At the same moment, the Sword of Trapping Immortals struck at Sun Wukong once more.

“Boom!”

The Sword of Trapping Immortals and the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod collided violently, creating a shockwave that blasted outwards, ripping up the surrounding grass and scouring a thick layer from the ground. A circular pit appeared at the center of impact, and countless cracks rapidly spread out from it.

“Eh?”

A surprised ‘eh’ from the attacker suggested astonishment that Sun Wukong had managed to withstand this strike from the Sword of Trapping Immortals. The next moment, the Sword of Trapping Immortals and the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod parted, and the hand holding the Sword of Trapping Immortals pulled back into the original mirror space, with the spatial fluctuations disappearing.

“Bastard, gutsy enough to ambush but too cowardly to show your face, a hiding turtle!”

After retreating a couple of steps and stabilizing his stance, Sun Wukong saw the attacker, along with the Sword of Trapping Immortals, disappear and could not help but rage. This attacker was extremely cunning, striking with the speed of lightning. Only he could have responded in time; anyone else might have already died under the Sword of Trapping Immortals!

Seeing himself on guard and the attacker retreating without gaining an advantage on the first strike, who could it be with such a deep strategy? Holding one of the Four Swords of Immortal-Slaying, the Sword of Trapping Immortals, could it be the Real Man of Jade Cauldron?
