Great Demon Sun Wukong

After a moment of silence, Xi Zhao finally spoke up, "The World Suppressing Stele itself is one of the most mystical objects in the universe. Even I was unable to fully comprehend its mysteries at the beginning. I could only sense that there was a powerful force within the stele, but I couldn’t tell if it was good or evil.

So, as for your piece of the Wasteland Stele, try to use it as little as possible in the future. I’m afraid that its terrifying devouring power could erupt again, and there’s no chance we could stop it!"

Nodding his head, Sun Wukong didn’t have any better ideas. Knowing too little about the World Suppressing Stele, the best course of action now was to use the stele as little as possible. Even if he did use it, it could only be to hit someone; he must not transform it into the Three Thousand Barren Soil again.

Sun Wukong definitely didn’t want to experience that terrifying feeling of transformation ever again.

Like this, the two of them silently pondered their own thoughts until late into the night and then until dawn. It was only then that the slumbering Flame God slowly awoke. After waking up, the first thing the Flame God did was to stretch lazily, looking incredibly comfortable.

"You’ve been sleeping this whole time? Do you have any idea how hard it’s been for me to stand guard?" Seeing the unabashed look of comfort on the Flame God’s face, Xi Zhao gave him a kick.

"Hehehe, that’s just how my body is. Once I consume any Heaven and Earth Treasures of the Fire Attribute, I fall into a deep sleep. Eh, why hasn’t the little fox woken up yet?" After a brief explanation, the Flame God was suddenly surprised to see that the little fox was still asleep.

"That little fox is not simple at all, but as long as she’s alright, that’s good. Right, did you have any transformations? Don’t tell me those two Fire Phoenix Fruits just made you fall asleep."

"Of course not. The Vermilion Bird Fire Phoenix Fruits are practically tailor-made for me. But it’s hard to put it into words. How about one of you two try me?" After speaking, he even provocatively glanced at Xi Zhao. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Xi Zhao chuckled and instantly entered a state of Invisibility. At the precise moment that Xi Zhao disappeared, a burst of firelight exploded behind the Flame God, who was about ten meters away.

The firelight flashed and was gone in an instant. The Flame God hadn’t expected Xi Zhao to move so fast; if it wasn’t for the fact that he was always protected by Phoenix Fire, that hit could have finished him. Although Xi Zhao’s attack was blocked by the Phoenix Fire, the strength, angle, and intensity of the attack gave the Flame God a chill, and he dropped all underestimation.

Bending at the waist, he immediately drew the Strange Saber, Exploding Phoenix. But just as the saber had barely left his back, three more bursts of firelight exploded behind the Flame God. These three attacks were clearly much more fierce than the first, causing the Flame God to stagger forward.

Yet, the Flame God didn’t panic. He stepped forward with his right foot and turned his body, the Exploding Phoenix Blade already sweeping backward, enveloping firelight. But Xi Zhao was already nowhere to be found, and the slash naturally missed its mark. Explore more at empire

Because the Exploding Phoenix Blade was huge, the miss caused the Flame God’s body to be dragged to the left. Suddenly, the Flame God felt a blast of strong wind coming at his face and knew that Xi Zhao was seizing the opportunity to attack his face. So, he mustered Divine Power in both arms, raised the Exploding Phoenix Blade high over his head behind him, then brought it down in a chop.

But even though he felt Xi Zhao right in front of him, the chop still missed, and nine bursts of firelight exploded behind the Flame God. He was pushed forward by the immense force, taking three big steps before the momentum was dissipated. Although the Flame God was still unhurt, he had already fallen into a disadvantage.

He hadn’t even touched a corner of Xi Zhao’s clothes, yet Xi Zhao had already attacked him three times, with thirteen strikes in total. If it wasn’t for Xi Zhao holding back and an enhancement to his Phoenix Fire, the outcome would have been decided long ago.

Knowing that continuing like this would lead to a sure loss, the Flame God stopped holding back. With a decisive motion of his hands, the Phoenix Fire that was originally wrapping around his body suddenly burst forth and condensed into a three-meter-tall Fire Phoenix.

The difference between the tangible Phoenix Fire and the intangible kind was not just a little. Once the Phoenix Fire took shape, the Flame God’s confidence surged. His defensive power and speed both greatly increased.

Most importantly, the Flame God could control the Phoenix Fire to form an invisible Fire Net around his body to capture Xi Zhao’s movements. Sure enough, after the Fire Phoenix formed, the Flame God managed to block Xi Zhao’s attack head-on for the first time.

Even though he still couldn’t see Xi Zhao, through the Fire Net set around him, the Flame God was able to capture Xi Zhao’s movements, allowing him to block with the Exploding Phoenix Blade horizontally this time, catching Xi Zhao’s Twin Rings coming down.

The moment their weapons made contact, they both exploded.

The Exploding Phoenix Blade was engulfed in a fiery red burst of flames, like magma, while Xi Zhao’s Twin Rings erupted with a deep blue Cold Ice Explosion. The clash of one hot and one cold force, utterly opposite to one another, produced waves of air turbulence.

Xi Zhao leapt back in the instant of the explosion, yet he still felt waves of searing heat circulating between his arms. The Flame God fared no better, with even his hands trembling slightly. Seeing Xi Zhao retreat after a single strike, the Flame God was uncertain whether the Phoenix Fire of the explosion had affected Xi Zhao.

However, the Flame God was inwardly shocked. His own Phoenix Fire could be considered one of the rarer and more domineering flames, yet Xi Zhao usually did not show even a hint of an attribute aura. It was only during their clash that he realized Xi Zhao possessed such pure Ice Elemental Power within him, which seemed on par with, if not superior to, his own Phoenix Fire.

If Xi Zhao was not affected by the Phoenix Fire during their clash, then the level of his Ice Elemental Power could very well be higher than that of the Phoenix Fire.

It seemed that his own cultivation was still lacking. Although his special constitution meant he was imbued with the aura of flames, it was clear he lacked sufficient cultivation to completely conceal it, allowing the opponent to discern his attribute and even guess his likely moves before they even clashed.

As if struck by a sudden revelation, the Flame God’s face showed a contemplative and enlightened expression.

"The essence of flame is to focus on a single point and then explode, simultaneously bringing powerful adhesion and burning strength. Your flame lacks explosive power and adhesion and does not even have sufficient burning temperature."

With the sound of that voice, Xi Zhao, who had been invisible, suddenly appeared. However, as soon as he did, a towering Ice Tower descended from the sky, enclosing the Flame God within it.

Alerted by Xi Zhao revealing himself, the Flame God became even more vigilant. The moment the Ice Tower materialized, he could distinctly feel its chilling force. Without hesitation, he let out a piercingly loud Phoenix’s Cry, as the fiery phoenix on his body soared into the sky and collided with the bottom of the Ice Tower that was suppressing him from above.

But the power of the Ice Tower exceeded the Flame God’s expectations. The fiery phoenix only managed to resist for three breaths before it gradually succumbed and was pressed down bit by bit by the Ice Tower.

Seeing that the fiery phoenix was unable to withstand the Ice Tower, the Flame God tried to summon a stronger force, but as he only started to channel his mana, the Ice Tower suddenly erupted with a bright blue light, pressing the fiery phoenix to the ground.

When the fiery light and the Ice Tower’s blue glow dissipated, the Flame God was seen trapped inside the Ice Tower with a sullen face. His hands released the fiery phoenix, which continuously burst into flames. However, the Ice Tower, while continually melting, showed no signs of shattering. At this rate, if the Flame God were to free himself, it would likely take two or three Chinese Hours.

"Big brother Xi Zhao, I was wrong; please let me out. That Ice Tower of yours is too terrifying!"

Xi Zhao smiled and flicked his finger, and the Ice Tower gradually dissipated. "Kid, now you understand how formidable it is? If it weren’t for showing you your own shortcomings, this Ice Tower would have trapped you from the start, and if you were an enemy, being captured would mean you were already dead. Because this move, the Ice Emperor Tower, is only the first step in trapping someone!"

"You’re right, Brother Xi Zhao, and I’ve had some realizations. I’m lucky to have faced you today and learned my own deficiencies. But brother, your strength is truly terrifying. Completely suppressing my Phoenix Fire, your ice mustn’t be a nameless entity, right?"

"Haha, that’s something for next time. Alright, we should be on our way. The little fox and Caomei are already awake!" After finishing, Xi Zhao, along with Sun Wukong and the other color, turned to look at the little fox and Caomei. It turned out that the shock from their clash had awakened the little fox, who was now staring blankly at Caomei, while Caomei wore a face full of joyful surprise.

"Caomei, what’s wrong with the little fox? She didn’t forget who you are, did she?" Xi Zhao asked, worried that the little fox’s amnesia was acting up again.

But Caomei shook her head emphatically, "No, no, everything is fine, let’s set out, let’s set out!"

This time, however, Caomei did not ride on the little fox’s back, but instead walked alongside her. Of course, they still walked in front of the trio.

Although Sun Wukong was still somewhat puzzled, he put aside his thoughts and proceeded toward the center of the Desolate Island. No matter what, he needed to leave this place and return to the Pangu Realm, and then, end everything there!

As the saying goes:

The Phoenix’s fire does not extinguish, and a person does not die; the path of rebirth is incessant killing.

The youth is unafraid of demons’ chaos; his soul only wanders in the dreams of this place.
