Great Demon Sun Wukong

Although he was in quite a disheveled state, under the protection of the Nine Heavens Soil, he miraculously did not suffer the slightest injury. It must be said that as the supreme treasure amongst all things earthy, the Nine Heavens Soil indeed possessed its inconceivably formidable strengths. Its defense alone was something few treasures in the world could match.

He slowly rose to his feet and directed Hou Tu to continue setting up defenses around himself with the Nine Heavens Soil. Master Tongtian’s unhurried actions infuriated Sun Wukong, whose teeth itched with vexation. It had been quite a struggle to build up to that one strike, which ended up being completely defended against by the Nine Heavens Soil.

Not only had Master Tongtian remained utterly unfazed, he had even become more cautious. Now, landing another attack on him would likely be very difficult.

As soon as the Six-Eared Macaque emerged from the world within the artifact, he charged straight at the man in azure. While sprinting, he transformed into a giant ape sixty meters tall. With a few strides, he stood before the Azure Great Clock, then brought his hands together in prayer, and thick earth-based spiritual power surged out, laying down layers of defense around the Azure Great Clock.

Finally, Master Tongtian rose to his feet with a dark expression on his face. Looking at the massive earth-yellow giant ape in the distance and the spiritual power that was quickly materializing into a mountain behind it, he slowly uttered one word: "Kill!"

Other than Hou Tu, who stood beside Master Tongtian holding the Nine Heavens Soil, and the space Clan’s Ancestral Witch Di Jiang, who was severely wounded and sitting cross-legged in place to heal, the rest of the Ancestral Witches charged out. This time, Master Tongtian was truly enraged and cast aside all traces of underrating his opponents. The ten Demon Kings unleashed their full firepower.

Upon seeing the imposing advance of the ten Ancestral Witches, the giant ape that the Six-Eared Macaque had transformed into abruptly stood up. Behind it, a mound of earth surged up to a height of thirty meters, centered around which was the man in azure attire and the soon-to-shatter Chaos Clock. This demonstrated just how much the Six-Eared Macaque valued his master.

Sun Wukong also knew that it all came down to this battle of life or death. Not holding back any longer, with a roar, he transformed into a seventy-meter-tall giant ape enveloped in seven types of flames. In his true form, Sun Wukong matched and subtly surpassed the might of Saints.

Master Tongtian, too, waved his hand, and ten pitch-black small flags suddenly soared into the air, instantly vanishing into the back of the head of the rock Clan’s Ancestral Witch. Then, the ten Ancestral Witches burst forth with a terrifying surge of Demonic Qi, rolling out like the end of the world.

However, this Demonic Qi was quickly absorbed by the Ancestral Witches, and they, who were merely three meters tall, suddenly grew to over fifty meters in height.

The Witch Clan had always been such a towering and formidable race.

The sight of seven giants, each over fifty meters tall, was staggeringly shocking. Yet no one had the mood to marvel at this battle, which was unprecedented and unequaled in past and future alike.

It is important to note that even during the most flourishing epoch of the ancient Witch Clan, there had never been a situation where twelve Ancestral Witches went to battle at once. The might of the twelve Ancestral Witches ensured their pride, and against powerful enemies, they would only rely on their own strength. This pride was also their tragedy.

Otherwise, had the twelve Ancestral Witches joined forces to set up the Great Formation of the Twelve Celestial Dire-Spirits, who could have stood against them?

The Great Formation of the Twelve Celestial Dire-Spirits was indeed ranked alongside the Demon Clan’s Great Formation of the Celestial Stars and the Taoist Sect’s Nine Bends Yellow River Formation as one of the three ultimate formations.

Post fusion with the black flags, the Ancestral Witches had regained their power from their living days, standing at the peak realm of Saints. Ten Ancestral Witches VS two Great Demons — the numbers did not bode well for Sun Wukong and the Six-Eared Macaque.

Without further ado, the ten Ancestral Witches suddenly charged towards Sun Wukong and the Six-Eared Macaque. En route, they split into three formations.

Xuan Ming and Ju Mang, two Ancestral Witches, suddenly separated to the left and right, while the Fire God Zhurong, the Thunder God, Wind Deity Fei Bo, and Kuafu rushed towards Sun Wukong; the Water Deity Gonggong, the War God Xing Tian, Hou Yi, and Ru Shou rushed towards the Six-Eared Macaque.

Zhurong was enveloped in a pale, almost transparent flame that blazed intensely, making one feel the space-evaporating heat even from a great distance. The Thunder God was adorned with multicolored thunderbolts and lightning, Wind Deity Fei Bo had numerous azure wind dragons swirling around him, and Kuafu was followed by a trail of starlight.

These four Ancestral Witches exerted their respective unique powers, determined to annihilate Sun Wukong on the spot.

On the other side, Water Deity Gonggong stood atop a deep blue water serpent. Despite the serpent’s transparent water-element composition, the vigorous spiritual energy it exuded was hardly less substantial than a living creature, and Gonggong’s water was no ordinary water.

The War God Xing Tian wielded the Gan Qi Divine Axe backwards, his killing intent visibly forming the image of a hellish Asura behind him. Hou Yi maintained a position at the rear, his Sky-Shocking Divine Bow strung with the Sun Shooting Divine Arrow, waiting for the Six-Eared Macaque to reveal a flaw for a fatal shot.

Ru Shou, meanwhile, ran while ringing the Heavenly Chime—his actions not immediately apparent, but certainly not to be underestimated.

When Sun Wukong and the Six-Eared Macaque were in the World Within the Artifact of the Jingu Bang previously, they briefly discussed and concluded that they could not allow the twelve Ancestral Witches to come together. The only way to win was to divide and conquer.

Therefore, the Six-Eared Macaque did not care about the consumption of his mana to set up a defense as big as a small hill for the man in green, and even secretly fused the Yellow Dragon Essence Blood into the small hill.

With the suppression of the Yellow Dragon Essence Blood, even if the twelve Ancestral Witches worked together, they definitely would not be able to break through it in a short amount of time. Only by doing so could Sun Wukong and the Six-Eared Macaque fight against their enemies without any worries.

Watching the four Ancestral Witches charging towards him, Sun Wukong dared not be negligent. A pair of Rainbow Wings instantly unfolded behind him. With the speed suppression from the Spatial Ancestral Witch Di Jiang no longer present, Sun Wukong could fully utilize the speed advantage after his evolution.

Moreover, he could also use the Fire Eyes and Golden Eyes of the Cave-Yin Candle Realm to find the weaknesses of the four and wait for opportunities to counterattack.

On the Six-Eared Macaque’s side, after taking another glance back, the Six-Eared Macaque no longer hesitated. With one hand holding the Jingu Bang, and the other hand summoning the Tortoise Shell Holy Shield.

The Six-Eared Macaque knew his strength was slightly inferior, so he could only defend while fighting. Indeed, summoning the Tortoise Shell Holy Shield turned out to be an extremely correct decision because the next moment, three Sun Shooting Divine Arrows had already crashed into the Tortoise Shell Holy Shield. This startled the Six-Eared Macaque.

Even with his Innate Divine Ability, he only heard a faint sound of breaking air before the three Sun Shooting Arrows came his way. The speed was truly frightening.

But before the Six-Eared Macaque had time to check the condition of the Tortoise Shell Shield, the War God Xing Tian, carrying his huge axe, had already arrived, delivering a straightforward chop onto the Tortoise Shell Shield raised high by the Six-Eared Macaque.

The Six-Eared Macaque immediately felt an enormous pressure as heavy as a mountain, with his left hand holding the Tortoise Shell Shield bursting into numerous blood mists.

However, that was not the end. What truly terrified the Six-Eared Macaque was the overwhelming killing intent brought by that axe. It even gave the Six-Eared Macaque a feeling of being invincible, and the killing intent—like maggots on bones—followed the Tortoise Shell Shield and actually clung to the Six-Eared Macaque’s body.

How could such a fearsome killing intent exist? It had materialized to the extent that even the Six-Eared Macaque, at the peak of saintliness, felt fear.

In that instant, in the moment the Six-Eared Macaque was shocked by the killing intent, the Water Deity Gonggong’s giant water snake bypassed the Tortoise Shell Shield and bit down on the Six-Eared Macaque’s right leg.

The intense pain dispelled the fear brought by the killing intent, but at the same time, it caused the Six-Eared Macaque’s right leg to lose sensation instantly. The only feeling was pain, an excruciating pain.

Under this pain, the Six-Eared Macaque erupted with unprecedented strength. With a throw of his left hand, the Tortoise Shell Shield flew out, crashing fiercely towards the War God Xing Tian, and then both hands tightly gripped the Crimson Blood Roaming Dragon Staff.

In an instant with a sweeping motion, after severing the giant water snake, the staff thrust into the air, and after a few crisp tinkling sounds, Hou Yi’s Sun Shooting Divine Arrows fell short. Then, the Six-Eared Macaque unleashed the Azure Dragon and entangled it around the left side towards Xu Rishou.

It can be said that in the blink of an eye, the Six-Eared Macaque repelled three great Ancestral Witches and entangled Xu Rishou. But before the Six-Eared Macaque could catch his breath, Xing Tian immediately stood up after dodging the Tortoise Shell Shield, sweeping out with the Gan Qi Divine Axe with unrivaled might.

Due to the loss of sensation in his right leg, the Six-Eared Macaque could not dodge and had to support himself on the Crimson Blood Roaming Dragon Staff to block this sweeping axe. However, to withstand Xing Tian’s axe left him wide open at the front, and the Water Deity Gonggong was already slashing diagonally with the Broken Jade Hook.

"Tortoise Shell Holy Shield, return!" With a loud roar, the thrown Tortoise Shell Holy Shield appeared out of nowhere to block Gonggong’s strike. However, the Six-Eared Macaque saw in the corner of his eye five consecutive Sun Shooting Divine Arrows shooting diagonally at him.

With a crack, the Six-Eared Macaque’s right leg was shot off.

As to why there was a cracking sound, it was because at the moment of being bitten by Gonggong’s water snake, the Six-Eared Macaque’s entire right leg had been completely frozen.

The Six-Eared Macaque plunged into a crisis of certain death!
