Great Demon Sun Wukong-Chapter 853 - 751 Sacrifice (Part 1)
Chapter 853 -751 Sacrifice (Part 1)
The Pioneer’s words were harsh, but they were true. Xiao He had possessed the Erdan No. 2 World Suppressing Stele for nearly a million years, but he had never unleashed the true power of the Divine Stele. If he had been able to use this power, Xiao He would definitely be the strongest in the Divine Kingdom. The Dragon Ancestor looked coldly at the Pioneer, his expression complex. The Pioneer, who owned the Divine Stele, was indeed very tricky. The previous attack looked simple, but it was already the ultimate expression of the Dragon Ancestor’s speed and power; otherwise, it wouldn’t have been possible to pierce the Pioneer’s heart with one blow. One must realize that the life-risking strike from Long Li and Long Yi had only blasted five blood holes in his chest. And now, the Pioneer had only utilized the power of three World Suppressing Steles, with six more yet to be used. Looking at the current situation, the Dragon Ancestor greatly doubted whether he could hold on until Ling Weiyang completed his evolution.
As for the others present, apart from Sun Wukong and Xi Zhao, no one could intervene in a battle of this level, so even if the others rushed forward, it would only add to the casualties. Glancing at Ling Weiyang, he found that Ling Weiyang had completely drawn out the Cosmic Stars Force and was currently merging this force with the Power of the Stars given by the Old Kirin. Judging by the progress, it seemed that another quarter of an hour was needed. Even if it meant risking his life, he had to fight for that time.
“Pioneer, you’re celebrating too early. Your end is destined to be a dead end!” With that, the Dragon Ancestor stabbed his right hand into the void, then forcefully pulled out a spear about the same length as the Golden Dragon Spear of the Dragon Emperor. As he caressed the golden spear, the Dragon Ancestor felt deeply nostalgic. He twisted his body while staring at the Pioneer and threw the spear in his hand. The golden spear thrust directly into the void, and when it reappeared, it was already embedded in the back of the Pioneer’s heart. The Pioneer, hit by the golden spear, spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and fell directly, but as the Pioneer struck by the spear fell to the ground, another Pioneer appeared in a different place.
At the same time, another golden spear stabbed out of the void and pierced through the chest of the Pioneer once again. However, as the second Pioneer fell, the third Pioneer had already appeared, followed by the third spear piercing through him. The battle between the Dragon Ancestor and the Pioneer seemed to enter a kind of deadlock. The Dragon Ancestor continuously used his Dragon Force to transform into dragon spears to stab through the newly appeared Pioneers, but no matter how many Pioneers the Dragon Ancestor pierced and killed with the dragon spear, another Pioneer always appeared, seemingly endless.
After killing off some fifty Pioneers, the Dragon Ancestor finally ran out of Dragon Force and half-knelt on the ground, gasping for breath. The Pioneer that appeared this time was not killed by the dragon spear. Looking at the panting Dragon Ancestor on the ground, the Pioneer also had a slight sheen of sweat on his forehead, although his condition was much better than the Dragon Ancestor’s. “Why don’t you continue? I thought your Dragon Force was inexhaustible. If I were you, I would give up. You should know that if you escape now, I won’t chase you. That way, maybe you can live for another million years. Isn’t that good? There’s no need to bury yourself along with these people and Ling Weiyang. After all, he’s not even a member of your Dragon Race!”
The Dragon Ancestor ignored him but tried his best to restore his Dragon Force. However, in the Fallen Tomb, the recovery of Dragon Force was extremely difficult. “Not speaking? Fine, since you’re done fighting, it’s my turn! World Suppressing Stele, come forth, Holy Light against Evil!” With those words, the Holy Spirit No. 7 World Suppressing Stele suddenly burst with green light, which then directly entered the body of the Pioneer and gradually emerged, covering the Pioneer’s body surface with a layer of green light armor. In an instant, the Pioneer appeared before the Dragon Ancestor and unhesitatingly pointed a finger at him. The Dragon Ancestor reacted immediately, crossing his arms in front of his chest to block the strike.
However, the Dragon Ancestor soon let out a tragic roar. Looking again, one could see a blood hole in the place where the Dragon Ancestor’s arms crossed. This blood hole pierced through the arm bones, visible on both sides. The Dragon Ancestor retreated while enduring the sharp pain. The Pioneer did not pursue but said blandly, “The Holy Spirit Stele possesses the purest power, the nemesis of all evil demons. Although you are the Dragon Ancestor, you are still a demon. For any demon, the Holy Spirit Force is the best weapon against them. In front of the Holy Spirit Force, you’re like snow, and I’m the red-hot iron.”
The Pioneer’s analogy, though crude, was accurate. With his formidable physique, the Dragon Ancestor was as fragile as a newborn baby in front of the Holy Spirit Force-empowered Pioneer. Moreover, with the Holy Spirit Force enshrouding, it was as if the Pioneer was given invincible defense. The Dragon Ancestor couldn’t touch him, and anything with Demon Qi couldn’t either. Essentially, with the Holy Spirit Force activated, even Sun Wukong wasn’t the Pioneer’s opponent. Only pure-blooded humans could confront him.
Despite the intense pain throughout his arms, the Dragon Ancestor held on, but he found himself at a loss against this Pioneer. If just the Holy Spirit No. 7 was already so powerful, then what about the others? What kind of might did they possess? He hadn’t expected the World Suppressing Stele to unleash such formidable abilities in the Pioneer’s hands. No wonder the Elixir Spirit Pills had placed the World Suppressing Steles in various Great Divine Nations; they knew that only the Pioneer could wield the Stele’s true power. Therefore, the Elixir Spirit Pills didn’t value the World Suppressing Steles too highly. In others’ hands, the World Suppressing Steles were but remarkably sturdy Magic Treasures.
The fact was evident, taking Sun Wukong as an example; he had possessed the Wasteland Soil Stele for such a long time. At most, he had used the Wasteland Soil Stele as a brick to smash people; even at his best, he had only used the Three Thousand Barren Soil and Desolate Sand and never commanded the kind of power the Pioneer did.
Just as the thoughts raced through the Dragon Ancestor’s mind, the Pioneer moved again, this time faster than before. Everyone saw only a burst of green light exploding. Then, they heard the Dragon Ancestor’s even more devastating wail. When the green light faded away, everyone saw the Dragon Ancestor lying directly on his back on the ground. His arms and legs were densely covered with blood holes, but there wasn’t a single hole on the Pioneer’s body. The Pioneer clearly did not want to kill the Dragon Ancestor, only to torture him. Such a large number of blood holes were continually gushing out fresh blood, making the whole scene exceedingly bloody and cruel.
At this point, Wen Yu, Yu Bo, and Hong Che finally couldn’t bear it anymore. Although the Dragon Ancestor now looked like someone in their twenties, in truth, he was an old man on the brink of death. Such torture was unbearably cruel for him. However, they were stopped by the Dragon Ancestor once again. “Get out of here, the three of you! This old man doesn’t need to be saved by a bunch of brats who still smell of milk. Pioneer, if you’ve got the guts, use all the powers of your Stele on me. Let’s see if my bones are tougher than your methods. If you can’t do it, I think you’d better roll back and cultivate for another hundred or eighty years!”
Intense pain all over his body seemed to have driven the Dragon Ancestor mad, who cursed so outrageously. Being insulted by the Dragon Ancestor, the Pioneer was immediately enraged. He couldn’t stand anything more than traitors except this kind of guy who stayed stubborn before death, just like the Ancestor Demon back then, laughing heartily even at the moment of death. “Since you want to experience the might of the World Suppressing Steles, I shall grant your wish.”
With those words, the Pioneer formed a hand seal and shouted, “World Suppressing Stele, Demon Transcending, transforming demons into ashes, to cleanse the world, go!” He then pointed a finger at the Dragon Ancestor, and a burst of red light shot up from the World Suppressing Stele above his head, directly falling on the Dragon Ancestor’s arms. Everyone saw the Dragon Ancestor’s arms enveloped in the red light dissolve at a speed visible to the naked eye, like snow encountering boiling water. In no time, his arms vanished.
This scene horrified everyone, and Wen Yu, Yu Bo, and Hong Che were already wailing in pain, their cries tore through the air. Seeing the Dragon Ancestor suffer such a disaster was more heartbreaking to them than being skinned alive! (To be continued.
