Great Demon Sun Wukong

Afterward, Yue Huangquan discussed some matters with Pangu and Ziling, and then the group proceeded to the treasure vault beneath the imperial palace of the Annihilation Demon Nation. Of course, the guards of the vault had already been killed, but since Yue Huangquan had not arrived before, the rest had not entered the vault. This time, led by the Crimson Dragon, they broke through with their formidable strength, finally reaching the Annihilation Demon Nation's treasure vault over seven hundred meters underground.

What followed was the division of the spoils. All treasures and resources were divided into four parts, with Nuwa holding onto Sun Wukong's share temporarily, to be handed over to him upon their next meeting. The only regret was that they found no Domain Instruments. It seemed that the Annihilation Demon Nation had only four in total, three of which had self-destructed, and the only one remaining was in the hands of the Rogue Heart Sword Hero. Aside from not finding the Heritage Site, this plan could be considered quite perfect.

"Who could have imagined that the foremost Divine Kingdom would be obliterated in an instant? The world truly is unpredictable," Yue Huangquan lamented after they had finished plundering all the valuables. Pangu, Yue Huangquan, Ziling, Jue Luan, and Meng Lan each stood atop a peak, watching the setting sun dipping behind the mountains, Yue Huangquan said with a sigh. Pangu also spoke with emotion, "For hundreds of thousands of years, my Genesis Divine Nation plotted how to destroy the Annihilation Demon Nation, but ultimately had to give up for various reasons. This outcome was truly beyond our expectations. Originally, we only intended to take advantage of the moment when the World Suppressing Stele of the Annihilation Demon Nation was seized to cause extensive damage."

Then, Ziling, the leader of the Crimson Army, glanced at Pangu, then at Nuwa, before saying, "We also didn't expect to actually eliminate the Annihilation this time, and that Sun Wukong, he really surprised me. Speaking of which, Sun Wukong can be considered a junior to both Nuwa and you, Pangu, but this junior has now grown to such heights that even I feel inferior!" Mentioning Sun Wukong, both Nuwa and Pangu's faces revealed sincere smiles.

Pangu had initially come to the still-forming Pangu Realm as a doppelganger, utilizing the capabilities of the Chaotic Giant Clan to help accelerate the growth of the Pangu Realm, and later Nuwa used the Five-Colored Divine Stone to complete the Heavenly Dao of the Pangu Realm and created humanity. Although these two had never met in the Pangu Realm, both had profound connections with Sun Wukong. Especially Nuwa, who had once fought side by side with Sun Wukong.

"Possessing the attribute of the Five Elements Balance and having the heart of Lord Pioneer, which is fusing with his body, as well as the soul of the super Annihilation Nine Headed Serpent within him. Moreover, the weapon in his hand, the Jingu Bang, is nurturing a complete world inside it. Sun Wukong has really surprised me a lot," Nuwa said, looking at the sunset with astonishment in her voice. Ziling shook his head and added, "Not only that, the Chaos Five Decisions of the Chaotic Giant Clan, the Seal Heavenly Stamp of the Genesis Divine Nation, the Nine Decisions of the Myriad Spirits Realm, the Myriad Demons Heaven-Breaking Decree of the Myriad Demons Country – Sun Wukong possesses half of these divine skills of the divine nations and has mastered all of them to perfection. Also, in the previous battle, I noticed something else. The Cosmic Laws surrounding Sun Wukong seem to be more than just nine. If he didn't have the heart of Lord Pioneer, I would almost believe he's the reincarnation of Lord Pioneer himself!"

"Hehe, regardless, Sun Wukong is at least our friend, and I think that's enough. Alright, Pangu, let your subordinates continue searching for the Heritage Site. I'm heading back now, and remember to come to the Netherworld tomorrow. Now that we've become the foremost divine nation, we should at least celebrate formally." With that, Yue Huangquan pointed a finger, and a grand door appeared before him. Then, with a wave of his hand, Du Tianyang and the other two flew through the door first. Yue Huangquan waved towards Ziling and the others with his back turned before stepping through the door himself.

Ziling shook his head and said, "Why do I feel that Yue Huangquan's temperament is becoming less and less like that of a tyrant? But Yue Huangquan is right, we do indeed need to go tomorrow. Since the Crimson Army has decided to come out into the open, we naturally have to show our strength to those elixirs. Let's go then, we'll see each other in the Netherworld tomorrow, and then we can have a good drink with Brother Pangu!" After speaking, Ziling patted Pangu on the shoulder, laughed heartily, and soared into the sky. The Chi Ghost, Crimson Dragon, and the others quickly followed, departing from the Annihilation Demon Nation.

After the Crimson Army had departed, Jue Luan finally withdrew his gaze towards the distance and sighed, "When will I be able to reach that level, sigh." Pangu, however, smiled and said, "What's the rush? How long have you been alive? Do you have any idea what sort of monstrous beings Ziling and his group are? You, my friend, are still too young. Let's also be on our way, we can't miss the victory feast in the Netherworld World tomorrow. Moreover, I've heard that the Canglan River Realm, the Ancient Primordial World, and the Fangcun Spirit Realm are all planning on forming alliances with the Netherworld. This time, we must tie them all to our war chariot!"

Jue Luan and Meng Lan paid their respects to Pangu respectfully. Then, Pangu, carrying one in each hand, left the Annihilation Demon Nation with them both. Those remaining from the Genesis were still searching for the location of the Heritage Site in the Annihilation Demon Nation. The downfall of the Annihilation Demon Nation would not spread among the cosmos's powers for some time, partly due to the Netherworld Creation's capability of suppression, and partly because the Law Enforcers were mostly absent, the remaining forces of the Annihilation Demon Nation were too weak to even leave their realm, so this news had not yet reached any other powers.

The next day, many powers that had received invitations from the Netherworld World arrived early. Of course, they did not enter the Netherworld but went to that high-level world where Sun Wukong and others had once practiced their qinggong. Every power that received an invitation brought significant gifts, and Yue Huangquan's hands grew tired from the constant receipt of presents. This victory feast lasted for over a month before concluding, which could be considered a major event in the cosmos. But more on that later, let's not digress for now.

On the very day the victory feast began, Rogue Heart Sword Hero, Flame God, Wan Jun, and Hei Kui also made their way to the Myriad Demons Country. At this time, the Myriad Demons Country was in the midst of a civil war, with smoke and chaos everywhere, and skirmishes large and small could be seen across the land. Overall, Ling Weiyang's forces held an absolute advantage, and it seemed likely that within three to five days, those loyal to the Hidden Realm's forces would be completely annihilated. This was partly because Ling Weiyang had long premeditated the rebellion, catching the unprepared off guard, and partly because the Hidden Realm itself was besieged by the Nine Kirin, unable to spare any attention to command its subordinates. This left the Hidden Realm's forces leaderless, leading to their continuous defeats.

The battle between the Nine Kirin and the Hidden Realm lasted for three full days and nights.

The Nine Kirin: Dream Kirin Ye Xingchen, Ghost Kirin Sha Hun, Explosive Flame Kirin Shi Yan, Bloodthirsty Kirin Mie Huang, Ink Kirin Mo Zhu, Shadow Kirin Nie Jing, Drunken Kirin Liu Shang, Fallen God Kirin Lead Silver, Life Kirin Changsheng. The nine great Kirin were Ling Weiyang's greatest trump card, and indeed, they had not let Ling Weiyang down. After three days and nights of battle, not one of the Nine Kirin fell, while the Hidden Realm, possessing the World Suppressing Stele Demon Transcending number six, ultimately could not withstand them and had no choice but to flee.

Naturally, the Nine Kirin were not about to let the Hidden Realm get away easily. Their orders were to kill the Hidden Realm conclusively. However, after three days and nights of grueling battle, both the Nine Kirin and the Hidden Realm were severely drained, their combat power reduced by seven-tenths. Despite this, the Hidden Realm, being at the Heavenly Venerate Primary Stage, still held an advantage, being far more advanced in realm and cultivation than the Nine Kirin. Although the combined combat power of the Nine Kirin was nearly at the Mid Grade Heavenly Venerable level when they fought together, they were unable to match the Hidden Realm's speed when it was solely focused on escaping. After chasing and fighting for several Chinese Hours, Ye Xingchen realized he could no longer restrain the Hidden Realm.

Just as Ye Xingchen was flying at full speed, wondering what to do next, he suddenly noticed that the desperately fleeing Hidden Realm had come to a stop. Seeing the figure of the Hidden Realm, Ye Xingchen did not immediately pursue but gestured for the other eight Kirin to conceal themselves immediately. That was because right in front of the Hidden Realm, Ye Xingchen saw four other figures. Two of those people he recognized, one was the long-renowned power from the Netherworld World, Rogue Heart Sword Hero, and the other, he was more familiar with, being the demonic sword Wan Jun from the Annihilation Demon Nation. As for the other two, he did not recognize them, but he felt a significant threat emanating from them, which was why he decided to wait and see how things unfolded. (To be continued.
