Great Demon Sun Wukong

Jing Potian suddenly looked up and saw that around the King of Qin, spiritual energy was billowing, and there were also two Jade Seals, one black and one white, constantly revolving around him. The King of Qin, who had previously been on par with himself in terms of strength, was now emitting an aura as deep as an abyss, as dark as a prison, which instilled a sense of fear in Jing Potian.

It was a feeling only experienced when facing an enemy who was absolutely unbeatable; the last time he felt this way was a long time ago, in the presence of the Domain Lord of the Annihilation Demon Nation. Could it be that the King of Qin now possessed the power of a Domain Lord? How incredible was that?

One must know that even the Nine Patterns Supreme, after fully integrating the Nine Laws, while dubbed Domain Lord Level, was only distinguished from the common Nine Patterns Supreme and could not possibly possess the same strength as a real Domain Lord.

However, the aura that the King of Qin was now radiating was almost no different from that of a Domain Lord, how could Jing Potian not be shocked and frightened? Moreover, he had not sensed anything just a moment ago, yet his left arm had vanished without a trace. If the King of Qin had targeted not his left arm but his own neck just now, he would probably already be dead.

Thinking of this, Jing Potian felt a wave of fear and without further thought, he quickly gathered all his spiritual power to prepare to flee. "As long as the green hills are there, one need not worry about firewood." Now that the King of Qin had somehow significantly increased his power to a level beyond his own, if he continued to fight to the death here, he might really end up dead.

Just as Jing Potian's thought stirred, the nearby King of Qin suddenly let out an inhuman roar, and immediately after, the two Jade Seal-like objects revolving around him transformed into two fierce ghosts, which pounced on Jing Potian from the left and the right. The King of Qin, however, directly turned and flew toward the person who had just appeared and taken the hit for him.

Seeing these two ghosts attack, Jing Potian was secretly shocked. Although the two ghosts appeared only the size of ordinary people and looked mundane, the endless ghostly qi and aura of grievances they emitted were definitely problematic.

Not daring to come into contact with them, Jing Potian suddenly crossed his arms over his chest, and following a surge of force, a pair of wings made of pale white lightning sprouted from his back.

As soon as the wings appeared, they flapped powerfully, and Jing Potian, driven by this immense force, shot out directly. But the two ghosts struck each other with their claws, using the force of the collision to double their speed in an instant.

By now, the King of Qin had reached the side of the person pierced by the white light; the white light had dissipated, revealing a huge hollow in the person's chest, with all his internal organs destroyed.

The King of Qin felt Jing Potian escape, but he did not even glance in his direction; instead, he placed his hands on the back of the person, pouring his torrential spiritual power into the individual's body like a flood.

Although his spiritual power was exceptionally pure and abundant, it was to no avail, for no matter how much was infused, it simply dissipated from the hollow space in the person's chest and stomach.

At this moment, the person who had been on the verge of death suddenly opened his eyes as if reflecting light momentarily before death, then tightly grabbed the King of Qin's collar, saying, "Forget it, don't waste your effort. You should know I'm already a goner, but I never imagined that in the end, I would die for you, which is truly ironic. King of Qin, do you know what I'm thinking right now?"

The King of Qin did not respond, only continuing to frenziedly transfer his spiritual power with a ferocious expression. Seeing that the King of Qin did not answer, the person continued, "I am thinking, perhaps it is only when a person is about to die and experiences a brief flash of vitality that they're the most lucid they have ever been.

I was your brother for half a lifetime, and then we fought for the other half; to tell the truth, I am really tired. That's it, King of Qin, I should go. By the way, one last thing, King of Qin, I was wrong from the start."

No sooner had the words fallen than the person had completely passed away. From beginning to end, the King of Qin had not said a word, nor shed a single tear, but the anguished, twisted expression on his face was enough to prove just how much pain he was in at that moment.

His best brother had become an irreconcilable, mortal enemy over that incident, engaged in constant overt and covert battles for most of their lives. But now, he had died suddenly before his eyes, and moreover, to save him. This kind of feeling could truly drive one mad.

Looking at the Ghost King, who had completely lost his vitality, the King of Qin's eyes went empty as he collapsed straight down. As his body traced a slow arc through mid-air, the King of Qin suddenly remembered the Flame God, full of worry and care, and her death accompanied by reluctance and concern. Now, the Ghost King had died too, yet his death was so peaceful.

All of this had to be shouldered by the King of Qin alone.

With a thump, the King of Qin fell heavily into the sandy ground, the dust raised seemingly coalesced into an aged old man, then into a beautiful woman, followed by the young Ghost King, and finally, the image fixed on his own face.

But before the King of Qin could disperse the dust, suddenly, the two Jade Seals, one black and one white, flew back and broke through the dusty shape, sinking directly into the King of Qin's body.

And so, the King of Qin lay motionless on the sand dune, letting the wind and sand cover him as if he intended to be buried there and slowly die. The Six Kingdoms War, city lordship - at this moment, the King of Qin couldn't care less about any of that.

Compared to the King of Qin, the Six-Eared Macaque returned victorious at this moment. Last night, while being chased by the Insect Tide, it was suddenly warned by the Guardian. Thereafter, the Six-Eared Macaque changed directions, rode the Blood Dragon, and simultaneously fled and caught the Black Mirror Scorpions to consume the Mysterious Crystals.

It was a flight and capture that lasted until dawn when the Insect Tide gradually dissipated, allowing the Six-Eared Macaque to finally catch its breath.

Although the Mysterious Crystals were continuously replenishing the depleted Spiritual Power, the flight throughout the night and controlling the mysterious patterns to catch the Black Mirror Scorpions were still extremely mentally exhausting.

Therefore, as soon as the Black Mirror Scorpions and the Tongtian Worms dispersed, the Six-Eared Macaque immediately dismounted from the Blood Dragon and commanded it to coil into a circle, where it took a short rest.

Just when the Six-Eared Macaque had rested for less than fifteen minutes, it suddenly sensed three presences rushing toward its location. Upon closer perception, it discovered that one of the three was from the Annihilation Demon Nation, and the other two were from Myriad Demons Country. Moreover, none of the three had a single Domain Bead on them.

It seems these three were the unlucky ones chased by the Insect Tide last night, and judging from the fluctuating auras of the three, it was evident they had sustained various degrees of injury.

Given that they were already in such a state, if the Six-Eared Macaque didn't take advantage of the situation, it would truly be letting down the Insect Tide that had chased them tirelessly through the night.

Moreover, the Six-Eared Macaque also planned to use these three to confirm some of its wild speculations from the previous night. If things were as it suspected, this matter might truly not be simple, and the Six-Eared Macaque even sensed a trace of a massive conspiracy. So without hesitation, the Six-Eared Macaque directed the Blood Dragon to soar into the sky and fly toward the three individuals.

Meanwhile, the Six-Eared Macaque, deep in thought, gradually sank into the sandy bottom. If it was before, relying on its comprehension of the Earth Element, it could hide under the desert; however, once it launched an attack or encountered a top-tier strong fighter, it would still be discovered. Just like the time it concealed itself and was detected by Lin Xi.

If it hadn't feared Lin Xi mistaking it for an enemy and attacking, the Six-Eared Macaque would not have revealed its presence through Divine Sense and then joined forces with him to kill that person.

After all, the Six-Eared Macaque clearly knew that even if they joined forces, they could not kill Bu Yun—they could only cause him severe injury. Moreover, doing so would not only expose its own strength and identity, but it would also make an enemy of Bu Yun.

Although the Netherworld World and Myriad Demons Country and Annihilation Divine Kingdom were traditionally hostile, Bu Yun certainly would not go out of his way to make things difficult for the Six-Eared Macaque if there was no direct assault.

Now, Bu Yun was likely frantically looking for it!

At that moment, the three were intending to take a rest when they suddenly saw a blood-red giant dragon swooping toward them from afar. Instantly, all three readied themselves for battle and as the dragon drew closer, they launched their strongest attacks.

Suffering from various injuries and drained by a night of flight, if they couldn't eliminate this unknown dragon right away, they risked being drawn into a prolonged fight.

Although these three were not top-tier strong fighters like Lin Xi or Bu Yun, they were not weaklings. Having survived two nights amidst the rampaging Insect Tide, how could they be weak? As a result of their coordinated attack, the Blood Dragon directly disintegrated into a sky full of blood and flesh fragments.

Just as the trio sighed in relief, behind each of them suddenly appeared a duplicate of themselves, figures with six long ears on their heads and holding blood-red staffs. As they looked on in disbelief, the staffs of the figures behind them instantly swept across and pierced their bodies.

However, after the staffs passed through their bodies, the three realized they were unharmed—was it all an illusion? At that moment, they felt as if a force was pulling on their souls, and before they could resist, their souls were torn out by another five-meter-tall giant ape phantom figure.

As the souls of the three struggled, the real body of the Six-Eared Macaque slowly emerged from within the sand. Then, with a snap of its fingers, the giant ape phantom gulped down the souls of the three, chewing them a few times before swallowing.

"Killing these three was effortless—now, only a battle with a top-tier strong fighter will fully confirm my suspicions. I truly hope that I am wrong, for if not, another calamity is upon us!"

Having spoken, with a wave of its hand, the giant ape phantom returned inside the Six-Eared Macaque. After scanning its surroundings, the Six-Eared Macaque bent its legs before leaping high into the air, vanishing into the depths of the desert with a few bounds.
