Above the high skies, behind the Black Sand Demon King were the illusions of an endless desert. He bellowed, "Nine Revolutions God Slaying Saber, one strike—" The blade fell, thunderous blade light carving Heaven and Earth. "Clang—" Jingu Bang shattered the blade light with one swing. Too weak, Sun Wukong flipped through the air, Jingu Bang sweeping out horizontally. The blade light slashed straight at Sun Wukong. "Clang—" The Jingu Bang once again shattered the blade light, the will of the blade scattering, leaving bright trails in the sky. The momentum of the Jingu Bang did not stop, boom—it directly shattered the Black Sand Demon King, countless black sands swept out, and just as many were ground to nothingness by the Jingu Bang, turned into the void. Fleeing black sands gathered in the high sky, forming a gigantic black saber, and a mighty voice echoed between Heaven and Earth: "Nine Revolutions God Slaying Saber, the third strike—" The massive black saber descended. Sun Wukong let out a weird chuckle, tossing the Jingu Bang into the air, which suddenly enlarged and spun rapidly, forming a Golden Light Shield. Boom—the black saber struck the Golden Light Shield, and immediately the blade itself began to crack and crumble. "The seventh strike—" The Black Sand Demon King floated between Heaven and Earth, endless black blade lights swirling around him, forming a black tornado that enshrouded the Black Sand Demon King within, leaving only two blood-red eyes shining through the black tornado, looking like a Demon King stepping out from the Demon Realm. "Sun Wukong, take my final strike, Nine Revolutions God Slaying Saber, the ninth strike, one that Slaughters Gods—" The grand voice reverberated through Heaven and Earth. Sun Wukong stood proudly between Heaven and Earth, looking up at the tremendous blade light, and laughed heartily, "Now this is getting interesting!" Not a trace of retreat in his eyes, but rather his fighting spirit soared. The black tornado suddenly split apart, and a Heavenly Blade struck down from within, the countless blade energies of the black tornado gathering around the giant saber, amplifying its power like it could sunder the heavens and split the earth. Sun Wukong’s figure grew in size, from a little monkey, in a blink he turned into a Burst Ape clad in armor, his golden fur as stiff as wire, his enormous eyes burning with flames like two fireballs, a mouth full of fang-like tusks. "Eat my stick, old Sun!" The Burst Ape gripped the Heavenly Pillar and charged up. The massive Heavenly Pillar collided with the Infinite Blade Light, a ripple swept out high in the sky, cleansing the expanse of ten thousand miles of Heaven and Earth, high above it looked as if two suns appeared, piercingly bright, distorting the sight, mountains thunderously sliced asunder, leveled. A figure aflame with blazing fire fell from the high skies, boom—crashing into the forest and instantly raising a cloud of dust, creating a deep crater with a hundred-meter radius. Sun Wukong stood valiantly in mid-air, holding Jingu Bang, he chuckled weirdly and shouted, "Good swordsmanship, you’re not so bad, old Sun will remember you." On the other side, Jiang Ziya immediately disembarked from the horse carriage, flying down into the deep crater, bent down to help the Black Sand Demon King up, anxiously shouting, "Black Sand Demon King, are you alright?" The Black Sand Demon King struggled to his feet, pushed Jiang Ziya away with one move, and looked up angrily shouting, "Sun Wukong!" Sun Wukong raised his Jingu Bang, chuckled weirdly and said, "Your nine sword moves are done, now it’s old Sun’s turn, Evil Spirit, meet your end!" The Black Sand Demon King suddenly bellowed, "Sun Wukong!" Sun Wukong’s rising momentum paused for a moment as he cocked his head and said to the Black Sand Demon King, "Do you have any last words? This poor monk promises to pass them on for you." "Truly think I’m afraid of you? Witness the might of a Demon King from the Northern Continent." Saying this, the Black Sand Demon King took out a red Jade Bottle from his bosom, squeezed it hard, and with a bang—the Jade Bottle shattered, releasing an elixir that floated in mid-air. The Black Sand Demon King opened his mouth to inhale, creating a small whirlpool, and in a flash, the elixir shot into his mouth. The stout aura of the Black Sand Demon King surged rapidly, his domineering presence affecting Heaven and Earth; boom—boom—boom—thunder rumbled across the sky, and blood-red lightning seemed to cleave the heaven and earth asunder. The Black Sand Demon King clenched his fist and said with a sneer, "I feel great!" Streaks of lines rapidly crawled up from his neck, forming a dense, branch-like pattern. Zhu Bajie landed next to Sun Wukong, holding his Nine-toothed Nail Rake horizontally and nervously exclaimed, "Brother Monkey, this demon has become stronger." Sun Wukong spoke with nonchalance, "No matter how strong, they’re no match for my staff." "Boasting words—watch, I will make you kneel and beg for mercy. Today, I shall feast on monkey brain." The Black Sand Demon King, feeling the surge of mana inside him, reached the peak of confidence and raised his hand, saying, "Jiang Ziya, you step back first." Jiang Ziya stepped back with a smile. The Black Sand Demon King, holding his black blade with soaring fighting spirit, took a step forward to declare war. But the moment he stepped down, his body suddenly trembled, and spurt—spurt—spurt—streams of black blood burst forth from his body. "Ah~" The Black Sand Demon King let out a miserable cry, as his whole body shuddered. Jiang Ziya’s eyes gleamed brightly, and in an instant, he thrust his sword, spurt—the Immortal Sword pierced through Black Sand Demon King’s skull, leaving him instantly stiff in place, his eyes filled with disbelief. From above the clouds, Sun Wukong shouted in surprise, "What’s going on here?" Newest update provıded by 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝘯𝘦𝘵 Zhu Bajie shook his head repeatedly, "I don’t know either!" Jiang Ziya waved his hand, took the Black Sand Demon King away, and disappeared using an earth burrowing technique. Sun Wukong said with some confusion, "Are they fighting amongst themselves?" "Brother Monkey, let’s not bother with them. We should check on Master first! We don’t even know how Master is, whether he has been captured by demons or not." Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie immediately flew downwards. Below on the mountain, The White Dragon Horse stood in place, hitched to a horse carriage, snoring with loud breaths. On the chaotically strewn ground lay scattered little monster corpses, while Tang Sanzang sat cross-legged on a stone, his hands together, softly reading scriptures. Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie swooped down and landed on the ground. Sun Wukong called out, "Little Monk, are you alright?" Tang Sanzang slightly opened his eyes and said with compassion, "I am fine. Just feeling contemplative at the sight of so many lives lost, performing rites for their souls." Zhu Bajie said with surprise, "Master, who killed these little monsters? I, Old Pig, was coming to your rescue." Tang Sanzang rose from the stone, a hint of pride in his voice, "As a monk of Buddhism, I have my own means of suppressing demons." "Master, I am back," announced Sha Wujing, carrying the Demon-suppressing Treasure Staff while riding on a cloud, holding a white skeleton. Sha Wujing descended from the cloud, laughing heartily, "Master, this is the demon who wanted to harm you. I have eliminated it; it was actually an evil spirit formed from a white skeleton." Tang Sanzang’s heart stirred, immediately looking at Sun Wukong with eyes full of fervent excitement, "Wukong, where is that Demon King?" Turning his head to Zhu Bajie, he said, "Bajie, that Jiang Ziya has colluded with demons and certainly isn’t of good kind, can you capture him?"
