Great Demon Sun Wukong

Looking at the complete map of the Patrolling Celestial World drawn by the Underworld God Army, Dao Zhun took out the fragmentary map that only contained the ten major forces. After comparing the two, he quickly determined his current location. What surprised him was that when the World Suppressing Stele exploded, he didn't have time to choose a direction and had simply fled in a random direction. According to this map, the Myriad Gods Hall was the closest location to him.

Considering the distance and the speed he could currently achieve, he could reach the Myriad Gods Hall in just one night. Dao Zhun no longer hesitated. Although his Spiritual Power had not fully recovered, there was no time to waste. He identified the direction based on the map and took off straight into the sky, heading for the location of the Myriad Gods Hall.

The current situation was that Wumeng, the Evil Monarch of the Five Battle Generals from the Netherworld World, was carrying Caomei toward the Myriad Gods Hall. Old King was on his way to the Myriad Demons Palace alone. Sun Wukong and others were at the edge of the crater formed by the explosion, north of the original Annihilation Palace, battling against Ling Weiyang and Bai Zhaoju. Sha Wujing was fighting a life-or-death battle with Yao Wumeng a hundred miles away from them. Meanwhile, the Five Demon Gods of Myriad Demons Country were still diligently searching for traces of the Fangcun Spirit Realm where the Fangcun Palace was located. Luo Chen, Bai Yi, and five others from Ming An were engaged in a fierce battle with several guards from the Myriad Gods Hall. Experience exclusive tales on My Virtual Library Empire

So far, only the Netherworld Palace, Canglan Palace, and Myriad Demons Palace had not been attacked. The Netherworld Palace was guarded by two hundred Combat Puppets, a force that could not be ignored. These Combat Puppets did not take orders from anyone and would certainly not leave the Netherworld Palace, so even Xi Zhao couldn't command these Guardian Puppets. Although Genesis Palace also had one hundred Guardian Puppets, Jue Luan had placed all these Guardian Puppets inside Genesis Palace as the last line of defense. So when Old King attacked Genesis Palace, the Guardian Puppets inside did not come out to help. However, when the Ancestor Demon broke into the Genesis Palace, the hundred Puppets finally activated.

It was uncertain who won the battle between the Ancestor Demon and the hundred Guardian Puppets; at least Old King didn't know. As for the Canglan Palace, whether the Myriad Demons Country deliberately left it for last or inadvertently overlooked it, it still has not been attacked. Of course, a more likely reason is that no one knows where the Canglan Palace is actually hidden.

Now, let's turn our attention back to Sun Wukong. The battle had reached a point where it was a fight to the death. The battle between the Dragon Emperor and Ling Weiyang was extremely intense. Both were at the peak of their cultivation as Domain Lords. One's true form was a Purple Gold Kirin, and the other a Golden Holy Dragon. In terms of their bloodline, they were evenly matched, and their combat experience was nearly identical. The only difference was that Ling Weiyang's Formless Divine Weapon, the Purple Gold Halberd, was ultimately stronger than the Dragon Emperor's Golden Dragon Spear.

However, the Dragon Emperor had not been completely outmatched so far. On the other hand, Bai Zhaoju's battle was quite frustrating. Once one of the Five Emperors of the Demon Clan, his first fight had ended without victory, and he had lost two arms. Now, with both arms restored and his strength far greater than before, his opponent had changed to two people. Moreover, they were two exceedingly underhanded combatants.

No matter how despicable the tactics, as long as they were effective, these two would use them without hesitation. Moreover, Wu Ming and Hei Kui worked together with perfect harmony. So far, Bai Zhaoju had not landed a single blow on Wu Ming. All his attacks had been blocked by Hei Kui, and although Hei Kui had taken countless hits, he seemed to be completely unharmed. But Bai Zhaoju was different. Wu Ming's ability to transform into a blood mist and launch attacks was unpredictable and overwhelming for Bai Zhaoju, who found each of Wu Ming's assaults devouring a part of his Vital Energy and even some of his Soul Power.

If the battle continued like this, Bai Zhaoju feared he would be consumed alive by Wu Ming within half a Chinese Hour. "Weiyang, I can't hold on any longer. If it goes on like this, I'm finished," Ling Weiyang blocked another slash from the Dragon Emperor and turned to look at Bai Zhaoju, saying, "Use it, and fight!" Hearing Ling Weiyang's words, Bai Zhaoju's eyes lit up. He let Wu Ming strike his left shoulder with another palm, but Bai Zhaoju didn't care. With a loud laugh, he took out a Heavenly Stele from the void and pressed it against his chest.

The Stele was naturally one of the Shadow Steles, and it contained the pure Evolution force of Demon Transcending No. 6. Initially, it was meant for Ling Weiyang, but after the evolution of Ling Weiyang's companion weapon, he gave the Evolution-capable Shadow Stele to Bai Zhaoju. Then, Bai Zhaoju seized two more Shadow Steles from the void, pressed them against his body, and those Steles possessed defensive power.

As the three Shadow Steles merged with him, Bai Zhaoju's mighty aura surged wildly, spreading an aura like that of a primordial beast from the ancient times. Bai Zhaoju's body began to grow, but only to about four meters tall, and as he grew taller, his body underwent drastic changes. First, a thick layer of white fur sprouted all over his body, then his palms thickened remarkably, with five sharp claws that struck fear into the heart just by looking at them. His head had completely transformed into a bear's.

Yes, Bai Zhaoju had now transformed into a four-meter-tall white bear. The Rift Sky Bloodthirsty Bear — that was Bai Zhaoju's true form! And the fragment imbued with evolutionary power from the World Suppressing Stele that he had just fused into his body was the last piece he had brought into this trial of patrolling the Celestial World. Having successfully merged with three World Suppressing Steles and revealing his true form with the power of evolution, Bai Zhaoju's combat power had skyrocketed to three times its previous level, and his own defensive power had reached a terrifyingly high stage.

Especially his thick and sharp bear claws, they were exceedingly frightening. Seeing Bai Zhaoju's transformation, both Hei Kui and Wu Ming were shocked, but neither of them had the slightest intention of backing down. To them, combat was their greatest love. Moreover, as part of the four great Ferocious Beasts of the Patrolling Celestial World, they could also transform into their true forms for battle. While Bai Zhaoju's transformation was still underway, Hei Kui and Wu Ming began their transformations as well. First was Wu Ming, who turned directly into a cloud of blood-colored mist, but within that mist emanated a heart-palpitating Blood Fiend Force, making everyone present feel as if the blood in their veins was trembling when Wu Ming returned to his true form.

Hei Kui, on the other hand, had transformed into a seven- or eight-meter tall lion-like Ferocious Beast. However, his disproportionately large mouth and the black fur on his neck served as proof that he was not a lion, but a special entity from the lineage of zombies — the Hou. He was even a top-level existence, the Black Prison Shaking Roar.

However, before the three who were returning to their true forms could take action, from the direction below everyone, or to put it more precisely, from within the big pit there suddenly came a roar. Hearing this, both Ling Weiyang and Bai Zhaoju simultaneously furrowed their brows, but after exchanging a glance, their faces quickly turned to expressions of sheer joy, and Ling Weiyang shouted loudly, "Could it be my brother, Qian Yuye?" Following Ling Weiyang's shout, a figure burst forth from the pit and landed directly between Bai Zhaoju, Wu Ming, and Hei Kui.

This person was indeed Qian Yuye. At this moment, Qian Yuye's body was drenched in blood, but aside from appearing somewhat unstable, he did not seem to have suffered any serious injuries. Looking at his armor, which was already somewhat ragged, it was now even more severely damaged. His upper body was practically bare, with only the war skirt on his lower body remaining relatively intact and preventing him from being completely nude.

But the miraculous chains that had been on his body had disappeared without a trace, leaving it uncertain whether he had retracted them himself or whether they had been completely shattered. Qian Yuye first looked back at Bai Zhaoju, who had returned to his true form, then turned to Wu Ming and others and roared angrily, "Where are those people from the Annihilation Demon Nation?"

Bai Zhaoju replied to the anxious Bai, his voice resounding like an echo, "They should all be dead, Brother Yuye, are you alright? Those people from the Annihilation Demon Nation are simply lunatics." Qian Yuye seemed to squeeze a sentence out from between his teeth, "I'm fine, but I lost that chain. Also, it seems the Supreme Order from Myriad Demons has been shattered. Brother Bai, could you spare me one?"

Bai Zhaoju naturally understood Qian Yuye's request and nodded, "The lion is mine; the mist is yours!"

However, as soon as Bai Zhaoju's voice fell, his entire person suddenly became stupefied, and then an almost crazed scream of agony followed.

Qian Yuye and Ling Weiyang hurriedly turned to look in his direction, only to find a very slender figure standing behind Bai Zhaoju, holding in his hand a very robust bear arm.

"You all should die! Remember, the one who crippled your arm for the second time is called Sun Wukong!" (To be continued.
