Great Demon Sun Wukong-Chapter 524 - 504: The Mysterious Strong One

As Ling Weiyang raged with fury from the death of Bai Zhaoju, he vanished in an instant and instantaneously moved to the side of Bai Zhaoju's corpse through the connection between his heart and flesh. Sha Wujing immediately pursued, but without the ability of spatial movement, he had to rely on the scent of the Water Element that had clung to Ling Weiyang during their previous battle to track him.

What Sha Wujing didn't expect was that when Ling Weiyang transformed into his true Purple Gold Kirin form, the mark that Sha Wujing had placed on him vanished. Fortunately, Sha Wujing was not too far from Ling Weiyang's location, and in the end, he caught up by following the changes in the spiritual energy. However, by the time he reached the battlefield, the battle between the two sides was almost over. Not one person from the Myriad Demons Country was left—of course, except for Ling Weiyang.

On the allied forces' side, there were initially sixty or seventy people, but when Sha Wujing arrived, fewer than ten were standing. Ling Yi of the Fangcun Spirit Realm, the devouring monk from the Ancient Primordial World, Ghost Jade from the Canglan River Realm, Si Ye and Liang Ji, Du Tianyang, Shang Sheng, and Zhan Yunyi from the Netherworld World. The rest were either severely injured and had lost their combat power or had died completely. And Ling Weiyang, now in his true Purple Gold Kirin form, did not even have a single trace of blood on him.

Seeing this scene, Sha Wujing felt both astonishment and a surging rage within him. While still airborne, Sha Wujing summoned his Ultimate Water No. 8 Heavenly Stele and pressed it directly onto his chest. Then, the meter-tall Heavenly Stele fused into his body. As the Ultimate Water No. 8 merged with him, Sha Wujing underwent drastic changes. As he looked at the carnage wrought by Ling Weiyang, even the usually mild-mannered Sha Wujing exploded with rage from the bottom of his heart.

Merging with the Heavenly Stele wasn't a particularly secretive technique, but it had a particularly harsh prerequisite: one's attribute had to be a complete match with the Heavenly Stele. For instance, the nine Domain Lords of the Nine Great Divine Kingdoms were perfectly matched with their respective Heavenly Steles. Later, after Xi Zhao was killed by Mo Wu and others, his World Suppressing Stele No. 1 was taken by Mo Mietian. Although he could use the stele, since his attribute was not a perfect match with it, he could only utilize some of its basic abilities.

Yue Huangquan, the Domain Lord of the Netherworld World, was the only one who could perfectly super-fuse with the Heavenly Stele. The remaining Domain Lords were also capable of perfect fusion. Sun Wukong himself naturally had the Earth Attribute. If his Earth Attribute were to reach its pinnacle, he, too, might have a chance at a perfect fusion with the Heavenly Stele. However, after Dao Zhun planted several other attributes within him, turning him into a being with balanced five-star attributes, it meant that Sun Wukong had completely lost the possibility of fusing with the Heavenly Stele.

Seeing Sha Wujing perfectly fuse with the Ultimate Water No. 8 Heavenly Stele, Ling Weiyang was also taken aback with surprise. When Sha Wujing finally landed on the ground after the fusion, he had completely changed. His already tall and burly figure had grown even larger, now reaching nearly five meters in height. His bald head and large beard remained unchanged, but behind his head was a halo of water-blue Buddha Light. Around his body, three magnificent water dragons coiled ceaselessly.

Moreover, Sha Wujing's monk robes had turned water blue, and his Sky-flipping Crescent Spade had changed from its original golden color to deep blue, especially noticeable in Sha Wujing's eyes, which were as deep as a bottomless abyss. On closer inspection, one could see the vast expanse of a cerulean sea within them. Sha Wujing's original strength was at the level of Nine Patterns Supreme, but after fusing with the Ultimate Water No. 8, he had reached the peak of Domain Lord Level.

Sensing the aura emanating from Sha Wujing, the Purple Gold Kirin, Ling Weiyang, scoffed disdainfully. He had thought Sha Wujing would be more formidable, but even after merging with the Heavenly Stele, he had only reached the peak of Domain Lord Level. With such strength, Ling Weiyang deemed it unnecessary to confront him personally. Thus, he simply gave Sha Wujing a glance with those purple gold eyes before redirecting his focus to the few who were not yet defeated.

Only by killing these remaining few, and with different methods, would Ling Weiyang soothe his grudge. Ling Weiyang did not strike at Sha Wujing, which naturally wouldn't allow Sha Wujing to attack him recklessly. So, the man with purple hair transformed from the Purple Gold Halberd, naturally a perfect match for Sha Wujing in terms of strength—also at the peak of Domain Lord Level—and due to his nature as the Formless Divine Weapon, his body was exceedingly tough, impervious to blade and sword, encountered Sha Wujing. He was indeed the most suitable candidate to deal with Sha Wujing.

The next moment, Ling Weiyang suddenly shuddered all over, then erupted in a roar of rage. But before he could fully vent the anger in his heart, a streak of blue lightning suddenly appeared above Ling Weiyang's head, followed by the deep blue Sky-flipping Crescent Spade that enlarged suddenly and stabbed down onto Ling Weiyang's neck. The force from the neck sent the towering figure face-planting forward with a heavy thud.

And the man transformed from the Purple Gold Halberd, who had gone to confront Sha Wujing, had by now been cut in half at the waist.

At this moment, all Ling Weiyang could think was, had Sha Wujing also broken through to that level?

The reason Ling Weiyang had paused all of a sudden was not that he found out Sha Wujing had killed the Purple Gold Halberd with a single move, but rather because he felt that one of his doppelgangers had actually, actually died. Every super powerhouse in Myriad Demons Country, including those involved in Ling Weiyang and Xi Zhao's earth-shattering plan, had an exact shadow of themselves. This shadow matched the original body in cultivation, strength, and even in every single word and action.

They had prepared these shadows for another scheme. During the Six Kingdoms War, Yao Wumeng's shadow had once made an appearance. The incident in the Dominion of Soil was initiated by Luo Chen's shadow—namely the one who later took Luo Chen's place. As the mastermind behind these schemes, Ling Weiyang naturally had such a shadow too. This shadow had followed Ling Weiyang closely since he was a child and never left his side. In Myriad Demons Country, many times this shadow would replace Ling Weiyang in dealing with some matters.

Therefore, Ling Weiyang's affection for this shadow was no less, and even much more, than for Bai Zhaoju. Bai Zhaoju's death would result in the burial of all the Allied Forces; as for the death of this shadow, who knew what even crazier actions Ling Weiyang would take.

Indeed, according to the prior intelligence and plans of Ling Weiyang and Xi Zhao, aside from Dao Zhun, no one in the Allied Forces could genuinely pose a threat to Bai Zhaoju and Ling Weiyang's shadow. However, after the last battle, this notion had completely vanished. Aside from Dao Zhun, both Sun Wukong and Zhibei had the ability to injure or even kill them. Especially Zhibei, who in the previous encounter had severed one of Bai Zhaoju's arms, was this not a warning beneath dispelling Netherworld World's doubts about him?

However, later in negotiations, Xi Zhao assured that when the final battle began, he was absolutely certain he could use the Thunder Fire Scorching Flame Cannon to obliterate Sun Wukong and Dao Zhun, and if successful, he might be able to kill even more. That's why Ling Weiyang, upon discovering Bai Zhaoju's death, left alone without his shadow. But who could have predicted that, with Zhibei's attack power destroyed, Sun Wukong slain in battle, and Dao Zhun on the brink of death, a mysterious and powerful woman would suddenly emerge? This woman did not use any combined forces, and with apparently ordinary punches and kicks, she managed to kill a Domain Lord Peak level doppelganger of Ling Weiyang?

Not only did Ling Weiyang not believe it, even Ye Zi, who had witnessed the entire process, did not believe it. But whether he believed it or not, the fact was already right before his eyes. That doppelganger of Ling Weiyang who had fought the Nine Decisions Vajra Ape to a draw was just killed in a short amount of time without the other party having used any powerful techniques from beginning to end.

While Ye Zi stood dumbfounded, unable to believe that such a strong person could exist in the world, the woman, having already seized the corpse of Ling Weiyang's doppelganger, moved in several leaps to Ye Zi's side. Ye Zi instinctively backed away, but he forcibly suppressed the thought because any movement would mean the death of Dao Zhun.

"Tell Sun Wukong that the Six-Eared Macaque is cultivating in a very safe place; he need not worry. The next time they meet will be the moment when everything ends. Also, take good care of this body."(To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Starting Point ) to vote for recommendation tickets and Monthly Passes.
