Great Demon Sun Wukong-Chapter 855 - 753: Sacrifice (Part 3)

Chapter 855 -753: Sacrifice (Part 3)

“Oh? You’ve finally completed your evolution? I’ve been waiting for this moment for a long time.” The Pioneer looked at Ling Weiyang with amusement. Ling Weiyang’s brow furrowed. “I told you I would kill you with my own hands, to make you understand that arrogance often leads to death!” As Ling Weiyang spoke, he already had the Demon Emperor Halberd in his hand. Previously, one side of the Demon Emperor Halberd depicted Myriad Demons worshipping while the other side represented the Cosmic Stars. Before fully merging with the Power of the Stars, Ling Weiyang could only use the power of the Myriad Demons’ worship, allowing him to wield the Myriad Demons Heaven-Breaking Decree without forming hand seals. Now, he could use the power of the Cosmic Stars, fully unleashing the Demon Emperor Halberd’s strength.

“The Purple Gold Stars Kirin has always been the king of the Kirin Clan, with only one in each generation. I killed the previous generation’s Purple Gold Stars Kirin, and you will also die by my hands. How ironic this is. Ling Weiyang, I now give you a chance, do you want to work with me? Together, we would definitely be the most powerful force in the universe, invincible. Once I attain Eternity, I will hand the universe over to you, and you will be its king!” The Pioneer spoke with anticipation. Ling Weiyang retorted disdainfully, “Being second to none was never my goal, let alone being subordinate to you. I will kill you and then achieve Eternity!”

The Pioneer’s face, once full of anticipation, turned gloomy. “In that case, you shall die.” Just as he was about to strike, he suddenly remembered something, his body stiffened, and his expression grew even more grave. Ling Weiyang naturally noticed this. “What’s the matter? Weren’t you going to kill me? Why don’t you make a move? Use your World Suppressing Stele? Don’t you have nine of them?” The Pioneer’s eyes were filled with malice as he looked at Ling Weiyang coldly. “So that’s it, I thought that old man had really gone mad. Turns out he was playing a different game. The true power of the World Suppressing Stele can only be used once a day. That old man deliberately provoked me, making me use Burning Fire, Ultimate Water, Holy Spirit, Demon Transcending, Soul Suppressing, God Binding, Wasteland Soil, and Creation. I used up the power of eight steles in full. What a cunning plan, truly cunning!”

Ling Weiyang did not confirm or deny the Pioneer’s words. In fact, the Pioneer was not wrong. When the Pioneer first gathered the nine World Suppressing Steles, Dragon Ancestor had already sent a message to Ling Weiyang, informing him that he would make the Pioneer use up the steles’ powers. This way, when fighting Ling Weiyang, the Pioneer would be severely restricted. If he wanted to use the World Suppressing Stele again, he could only use the power of the Destruction Stele or the final combined power of the Nine Steles. However, the risk of using the combination of the Nine Steles was immense, and Pioneer would only resort to it as a last measure. This was Dragon Ancestor’s final sacrifice for Ling Weiyang.

In reality, Dragon Ancestor’s true strength far exceeded what was shown today. As the ancestor of all dragons, his power was unimaginable. The reason he was beaten so badly by the Pioneer today, apart from the deliberate consumption of the steles’ usage, was the fact that the fruit he ate, which supposedly returned him to his peak state, was actually fake. It was not the real Reincarnation Creation Fruit but something very similar, only allowing him to recover up to eighty percent of his peak strength.

The fruit he consumed was just an associated product. Dragon Ancestor never intended to defeat the Pioneer; he was merely stalling for time. His actions were a true form of sacrifice. Because of his sacrifice, Ling Weiyang now had the chance to kill the Pioneer. The two said nothing more; words were useless. The only resolution was to kill each other, a solution more powerful than any argument.

Of the eight abilities of the Pioneer’s World Suppressing Steles, oh no, seven abilities were temporarily unavailable, leaving only the Destruction Stele and the continuously active Creation Stele. Before using the combined power of the Nine Steles, the Pioneer still had one powerful strike and, with the Creation Stele, remained undefeated. Forming hand seals, he intended to use the Destruction Stele to deliver a devastating blow to Ling Weiyang. However, as he moved his hand seals, Ling Weiyang suddenly disappeared. Before the Pioneer could find him, all the surrounding starlight began to flash. He then noticed a star point flickering to his left, and Ling Weiyang emerged from the starlight.

Ling Weiyang’s movements were too erratic for the Pioneer’s Divine Sense to lock onto him. The Pioneer did not panic; though the steles’ powers were unavailable, the steles themselves were still the hardest objects in the universe. Using the World Suppressing Stele for defense, he believed nothing could harm him.

Ling Weiyang flickered like a star, a swift and elusive figure. But the instant he appeared before the Pioneer’s Burning Fire Stele, the stele shook, defending against Ling Weiyang’s attack. However, in the next moment, the Pioneer noticed the starlight before him brightening again, and Ling Weiyang charged forward with the Demon Emperor Halberd. This time, the Pioneer blocked with the Ultimate Water Stele. With a clear ringing sound, the Ultimate Water Stele was pushed back, once more defending against Ling Weiyang’s attack.

But almost simultaneously, four points of starlight appeared around the Pioneer, and four Ling Weiyangs attacked together. The Pioneer used his World Suppressing Steles to defend once more. For the next quarter of an hour, the Pioneer was completely engulfed in Ling Weiyang’s relentless, storm-like assaults. The sound of strikes was constant, and it seemed as though dozens of Ling Weiyangs were attacking at once. At first, the Pioneer could defend with ease, but gradually he found himself struggling to keep up.

Realizing that he had been passive since the starlight points appeared, the Pioneer noted that Ling Weiyang could move freely among the starlight. At his extreme speed, it seemed countless Ling Weiyangs were attacking simultaneously. The Pioneer knew he had to escape the Sea of Starlight, but it was easier said than done. Ling Weiyang’s continuous attacks left no room for escape.

Eventually, with another increase in speed, Ling Weiyang outpaced the Pioneer, and the Demon Emperor Halberd pierced the Pioneer’s heart. With a twist, the heart was shredded, and the Pioneer died immediately. However, due to the Creation Stele, another Pioneer appeared right after the original one’s death. Ling Weiyang ceased his assault, scrutinizing the newly appeared Pioneer thoughtfully.

It was impossible for someone to resurrect endlessly; even the power of the steles must have limits. After numerous attacks by Dragon Ancestor, the Pioneer had exhausted the Creation Stele many times, yet it seemed the stele could produce doppelgangers without limit. If the Creation Stele couldn’t infinitely duplicate, then the earlier Pioneer, and the one just killed, were not the true body.

Thinking this way made more sense. Otherwise, how could someone resurrect countless times after being killed countless times? If the Pioneer before him wasn’t the true essence, then where was the true essence?

Squinting his eyes, Ling Weiyang scanned his surroundings, finally fixing his gaze on the milky-white glowing Creation Stele hovering around him. If his hypothesis was correct, the final possibility was the Creation Stele itself! ƒгeewebnovёl.com
