“Musheng, you must hurry up, I can’t hold off Lei Kuang for too long!”
Feeling an urgent pressure in his heart, Yan Jue did not show any sign of retreating. His body was enveloped in surging flames as he once again charged toward Lei Kuang. The two engaged in a fierce battle mid-air.
In the mountain hollow, Sun Wukong and Musheng could clearly sense the great battle erupting in the sky, feeling a growing anxiety in their hearts.
Musheng and Yan Jue had been good friends for many years, with teleportation passages connecting their clan lands. They had long heard of the grievances between the Flame Clan and the Thunder Clan and were familiar with the outcome of the great battle between Yan Jue and Lei Kuang a thousand years ago.
Now, Yan Jue was only at the level of Slaying One Corpse Merit Saint, while Lei Kuang had reached the level of Slaying Two Corpses Merit Saint. Not everyone could defy the odds and challenge higher levels like Sun Wukong. Yan Jue was likely still no match for Lei Kuang!
“Damn it! If it weren’t for this residual evil intent that has yet to be cleansed, I, Old Sun, would surely beat Lei Kuang till his face bloomed like peach blossoms!”
Sun Wukong clenched his teeth in frustration. About a quarter of the evil intent still lingered in his body. If he were to stop now, all his efforts would be in vain. The evil intent was not merely energy; once its suppression was lost, it would quickly spread throughout his body with unimaginable consequences.
“Great Saint, now is not the time to be distracted. Yan Jue is doing his utmost to hold back Lei Kuang. We must hurry and expel the evil intent, so his efforts are not in vain!”
Feeling the fluctuations of power within Sun Wukong’s body, Musheng promptly spoke up to persuade him. He too was worried for Yan Jue, but worrying was useless now. They had to swiftly expel the evil intent from Sun Wukong’s body to free themselves to aid Yan Jue.
“Damnation!”
Sun Wukong felt a sense of weakness he hadn’t experienced since the great war in the Heavenly Court. Over the years, his strength had continued to grow, and his cultivation had soared. Although he had regressed from Primordial Taiji Da Luo Gold Immortal to the Half-Step Saint Realm, his power was sufficient to match or even crush a Slaying One Corpse Merit Saint, especially since he possessed six of the top ten Great Dao which he had solidified one after another, inflating his confidence once more.
During the battle against the Evil Emperor, he had the opportunity to unleash his full power and annihilate the Evil Emperor in one strike. However, overconfidence led him to use his opponent as a training opportunity, failing to guard against the final counterattack as the Evil Emperor lay dying. That was how the Evil Intent was inflicted upon him, leading to this predicament that should not have arisen.
One should always give their all and never be complacent!
Filled with regret, Sun Wukong had no other choice but to patiently sit there. With Musheng’s help, he was doing his best to merge and refine the remaining evil intent with the Life Primordial Force until it was completely purged. Until the refinement was complete, he was as vulnerable as a lamb to the slaughter, unable to move a muscle!
Boom!
The battle in the sky intensified. Yan Jue’s strength was inevitably not a match for Lei Kuang. As soon as they clashed, he was at a disadvantage. Lei Kuang, unlike Sun Wukong, did not hold back to prolong the fight and unleashed his full force from the start. The wild thunder completely overpowered Yan Jue’s flames, and Yan Jue struggled to hold his ground.
After another clash, Lei Kuang’s Thunderbolt Blade broke through the defense of the Crimson Flame Spear and fiercely struck Yan Jue’s chest, sending him flying and crashing heavily into the ground, creating a huge crater not far from Sun Wukong and Musheng.
“Dragon Cat! Dragon Scorpion! You two come out and help Old Sun!”
Sun Wukong’s heart sank, and he could no longer concern himself with staying hidden. He pulled out the Dragon Cat and Dragon Scorpion from the Ruyi Qiankun Bag with his Divine Sense. “No matter what you do, you must hold off that guy and buy time for Old Sun to recover!”
“Boss, what’s wrong with you? Are you hurt?”
Evil invasion wasn’t an injury, and Sun Wukong had been suppressing the evil intent, preventing it from spreading. Thus, the Dragon Cat, being a contracted divine beast, hadn’t noticed anything unusual about Sun Wukong—who was sleeping soundly in the Ruyi Qiankun Bag. Now that Sun Wukong had pulled it out and looked at his face, the Dragon Cat’s sleepiness entirely disappeared, and it asked anxiously.
“It’s not an injury, it’s evil invasion. I, Old Sun, am expelling the evil intent! Alright, now’s not the time to talk about this. You guys go and help out. We must block that guy with the thunder light on his body, don’t let him disturb Old Sun’s work!”
Yan Jue alone definitely couldn’t stop Lei Kuang. Although the Dragon Cat had reached the Slaying Three Corpses Sub-Saint cultivation and the Dragon Scorpion had reached the Slaying Two Corpses Sub-Saint Realm, they had not yet proven the Tao and become saints, so their strength was far worse than Lei Kuang’s. But Sun Wukong could no longer care about this much now. Relying on their innate divine abilities, they should still manage to buy some time, right?
“Damn! A Slaying Two Corpses Merit Saint? Boss, why are the enemies you provoke, one more abnormal than the other?”
Following the direction pointed by Sun Wukong, the Dragon Cat glanced over and immediately felt like crying without tears. Every time Sun Wukong called them out to help, the enemies they faced were the hideously strong kind, at least for them at the moment.
But there was no other way, they had to bite the bullet and help out. Otherwise, once the guy bathed in flames was knocked down, it would be their turn to be unlucky!
“Dragon Scorpion, let’s fight together, I’ll control, you attack! Use your tail stinger and give that bastard a solid hit!”
Clenching its little fists, the Dragon Cat called to the Dragon Scorpion and charged at Lei Kuang, who had descended from the sky.
“What the heck?”
Having just landed from the air, Lei Kuang saw the Dragon Cat and Dragon Scorpion charging at him and frowned slightly, but didn’t take it too seriously. He could tell that neither the Dragon Cat nor the Dragon Scorpion had proven the Tao and become saints, so they shouldn’t pose much of a threat to him.
“Cute Charm Divine Skill!”
Lei Kuang reached out to brush the Dragon Cat aside, but just as he extended his left hand, the Dragon Cat suddenly made a fist with its right hand, placed it to its mouth, and pouted at him. Wondering what the heck was going on, Lei Kuang suddenly found his entire body restricted by an unknown force, unable to move a muscle!
“What’s going on here?”
Lei Kuang was shocked and struggled desperately, but it was to no avail. At that moment, the Dragon Scorpion’s tail stinger fiercely stabbed towards him.
“Pfft!”
The physical body of a Heavenly Dao Saint didn’t stand a chance against the Dragon Scorpion’s tail stinger, being pierced through instantly.
“Ah~!”
Lei Kuang felt a strong poison infiltrate his body. The left arm that was pierced lost all sensation in an instant, and a severe pain spread throughout his body, making him scream in agony.
