Great Demon Sun Wukong-Chapter 911 - 796: Primordial Honor’s Skeleton
Chapter 911 -796: Primordial Honor’s Skeleton
The Source Realmer’s stamina had reached its limit, so despite his reluctance, the Source Realm was deactivated nonetheless. At the moment of its deactivation, the Primordial Honor was first stunned, then realized that everyone had disappeared. In the eyes of the Source Realmer, time had just stopped, but in the consciousness of the Primordial Honor, he couldn’t perceive this halt in time. He just felt enveloped by a strange force, and then everyone suddenly vanished. The Primordial Honor was quite surprised by this; someone managed to escape right under his nose. However, the more such surprises occurred, the more interesting it became.
The Primordial Honor wasn’t in a hurry. With his current soul and essence, he could envelop the entire Fallen Tomb with his source perception, capturing everything in utmost clarity if he wished. This was an ability stronger than Sun Wukong’s Heaven and Earth Fire Eyes. As his source perception spread, it wasn’t long before the Primordial Honor found the Law Enforcers and others. With a cold sneer, he thought, as long as these people had not left this place, they couldn’t escape the palm of his hand. Meanwhile, the Primordial Honor also sensed Sun Wukong and Xi Zhao heading towards his location.
Such a self-delivered trap; he hadn’t yet gone to retrieve the remaining Spirit from Sun Wukong, and this unexpected move meant Sun Wukong was willingly coming to him. However, before reclaiming the remaining Spirit, he had to kill Ziling and obtain those Elixirs first. Once he consumed those remaining eight elixirs, he could fully digest the Spirit, and then reclaim the Spirit within Sun Wukong, leading to his true resurrection. Of course, he wouldn’t hesitate to accept Sun Wukong’s flesh as well; in this Fang Universe, only Sun Wukong’s body suited him best.
Once the positions of the Law Enforcers and Ziling were confirmed, the Primordial Honor vanished instantly; playing cat-and-mouse games was occasionally fun. Without spending much time, the Source Realmer had dashed for an hour, while the Primordial Honor arrived in just the time it took to drink a cup of tea. Watching the Law Enforcers and Ziling ahead, the Primordial Honor sneered. This group hadn’t yet realized the gap between themselves and him and surprisingly hoped to escape — such folly. In a flicker of his figure, the Primordial Honor slowly landed. The Source Realmer and others had all alerted and assumed combat stances, while Ziling and the Heavenly Patroller leaned against two stones, seemingly resting. Of course, even if they wanted to stand up, they couldn’t.
“Why aren’t you running? A trapped beast that struggles, aren’t you worse than a beast?” The Source Realmer’s face showed deep despair. His Source Realm couldn’t be activated again shortly, leaving their last chance for escape seemingly nonexistent. After the Primordial Honor spoke, he didn’t attack immediately but leisurely observed the individuals in front of him. Broken soldiers, really a bunch of broken soldiers. The Heavenly Patroller ignored the Primordial Honor, instead turning his head to the Law Enforcers standing behind him, nodding a bit, he said, “Let’s do it. Seems in the end, we can’t escape destiny. Ziling, we’ve pinned all our hopes on you — hopefully, you’ll succeed!”
Ziling was somewhat stunned; he didn’t understand what the Heavenly Patroller meant — what did it mean to pin hope on him? In his current state, even at full strength, he wasn’t the Primordial Honor’s match. The Primordial Honor’s power had reached an unbelievable level, well beyond what this universe could sustain. As he thought of this, Ziling paused, suddenly realizing an issue. The highest level of power this Fang Universe could accommodate was the Heavenly Venerate’s Peak, yet the Primordial Honor unquestionably surpassed this level but hadn’t been cast out by the universe’s Cosmic Rules — very strange.
Could the Cosmic Rules of this universe be ineffective against him? Or has the universe evolved at some unknown point in time? But for now, this wasn’t the time to ponder such things. Before Ziling could ask what the Heavenly Patroller meant by these words, he saw the Heavenly Patroller suddenly stand up, and then his entire body began emanating an aura absolutely unrelated to him. Most importantly, this aura remarkably resembled that of the Primordial Honor.
Ziling was extremely surprised and couldn’t comprehend what was happening at the moment. But the Heavenly Patroller’s transformation continued; the clothes on his body were shredded into countless pieces by this force, replaced by an armor. An armor seemingly formed of numerous bones. This bone armor emerged from within the Primordial Honor’s body, yet Ziling noticed the armor wasn’t whole; the arm guards on both arms bore many cracks, and the bone armor around the right wrist had already shattered and disappeared. Moreover, the bone armor on the left arm cracked immediately upon appearing and then fell off.
Staring at the bizarre bone armor on the Heavenly Patroller, Ziling felt perplexed. This didn’t appear to be a special crafted armor, but rather the Heavenly Patroller’s own bone emerging from within to shape an armor; the fractured or missing parts were all spots he’d previously attacked. Ziling never realized the Heavenly Patroller had such an ability, but what concerned Ziling more was, with the Heavenly Patroller’s bones outwardly exposed, what was now supporting him internally?
Without saying much else, the aura of the Heavenly Patroller grew increasingly imposing. Once all the bone armor on him emerged, a bone blade appeared in the Heavenly Patroller’s hand, though which part of the bone it was transformed from was indiscernible. The Heavenly Patroller slightly tilted his head, glanced at Ziling, and said something, but the words were too quiet for Ziling to hear. Nonetheless, he read the meaning from the Heavenly Patroller’s lip movements. Then the Heavenly Patroller charged at the Primordial Honor, who was now utterly shocked. He hadn’t expected, truly hadn’t expected he would meet his skeleton here.
In the past, his flesh was separated from his Spirit by the Underworld Venerate and the Pioneer, leading to his considerable power drop. After his demise, his soul and essence separated from his flesh, the soul and essence arriving in this Fang Universe, while his flesh was hidden in some place within his original universe. Yet now, his skeleton appeared here, so what happened to his flesh? Did something happen to the flesh he left in his own universe? As the Primordial Honor pondered, the Heavenly Patroller had arrived before him.
The Heavenly Patroller possessed the Primordial Honor’s skeleton; this was his greatest secret, unknown to almost anyone beyond himself. Generally, he concealed this skeleton within an extremely private space, and the entrance to that space resided within him. And from obtaining the Primordial Honor’s skeleton until now, he’d never completely used it, previously at most replacing one of his own bones with the Primordial’s.
But now, he has extracted all his bones from his body to form a piece of bone armor, and inside him, has been completely filled with the primordial honorable’s skeleton. All bones have transformed into the primordial honorable’s skeleton, causing the Heavenly Patroller to immediately break through the Heavenly Venerate’s peak, yet not reaching the Primordial Honor, but it is sufficient to battle against the primordial honorable who is in only soul and essence state.
This presented a very interesting phenomenon: the primordial honorable’s soul and essence, skeleton, and flesh were actually split into three, each independently existing. At this moment, the primordial honorable has realized that the Demon Spirit Butcher should be transformed from his own flesh, though he did not perceive it at the time. This made the primordial honorable somewhat frustrated; originally, he planned to retrieve the complete spirit and then use Sun Wukong’s body to return to his universe, after which his soul and essence would return to his body, achieving perfect resurrection.
But now, for unknown reasons, his flesh suddenly possessed its own consciousness, and the skeleton was utilized by the Heavenly Patroller, leaving him only with the soul and essence. In this condition, even if everything went smoothly, perfect resurrection was impossible; at most, he could attach his soul and essence to the skeleton and become a skeleton. This was not what the primordial honorable wanted, and upon realizing this, the primordial honorable was furious. Too many unexpected changes have repeatedly disrupted him, and now it nearly made all his efforts go in vain, causing him extreme anger.
Right hand clenched into a fist, although only in soul and essence state, the primordial honorable’s soul and essence were extremely solid, almost indistinguishable from physical form. With a flash of his figure, the primordial honorable appeared behind the Heavenly Patroller, and swung a punch towards the Heavenly Patroller’s back. The Heavenly Patroller reacted incredibly swiftly, the primordial honorable’s skeleton caused his power to surge, and without turning around, the bone armor on his body immediately extended seven or eight rib-like bones behind him; the extended ribs intertwined, catching the primordial honorable’s fist, not blocking directly but using the most elastic ribs to significantly reduce the primordial honorable’s punch force.
Meanwhile, the Heavenly Patroller’s right arm elbowed fiercely. The primordial honorable’s right fist was trapped by the bone armor’s ribs, unable to pull back, he had to use his left hand to block the Heavenly Patroller’s elbow strike. However, just after blocking the elbow strike, the Heavenly Patroller’s left hand reversed grip on the bone blade, thrusting backward directly. This time, the primordial honorable had nowhere to evade.
Yet the primordial honorable, after all, is the primordial honorable, he suddenly exerted force with his legs, leaping above the Heavenly Patroller’s head to flip to the front, causing the blade to miss naturally.
After activating the primordial honorable’s skeleton, the Heavenly Patroller’s combat power soared, capable of fighting head-on with the primordial honorable. Ziling stared blankly at the two battling, somewhat at a loss for words.
“Surprising, isn’t it? When I first saw that thing, I was also shocked. But now is not the time for surprise; you still have your mission.” The Judge said, patting Ziling’s shoulder.
Ziling was startled, immediately turning around, only to see the other seven people, all standing resolutely behind him, watching the Heavenly Patroller and the primordial honorable battling nearby, and Ziling felt somewhat strange. The Heavenly Patroller’s words just made him very concerned, so he asked: “What mission?”
The Judge replied, “Destroy the primordial honorable. So, the seven of us will give all our power to you, Ziling, although we are adversaries, I have always admired you.”
Ziling already sensed the meaning behind the Judge’s words but was not yet sure. “Ziling, I would like to entrust you with one last thing: if you feel you can’t defeat the primordial honorable, then run with the Heavenly Patroller. With the Heavenly Patroller’s character, he would rather die than retreat, but the seven of us hope he survives!” (To be continued.
