222: Chapter 178 What a Great Treasure_4 222: Chapter 178 What a Great Treasure_4 “Nihou, what are you doing?” The Ox Demon King’s expression changed. “Relax, his demonic qi is useless against me.” Sun Wukong remained unfazed, and his mana did not change at all. His physique was very special, being a naturally born sprite; for Sun Wukong, all types of energy were the same and could be converted into mana. Primordial Demonic Qi was no exception, as it could be absorbed by him without undergoing demonization. Sure enough, in the fierce battle against the Roc Demon King, Sun Wukong absorbed a massive amount of demonic qi, yet he experienced no troubles, showing not the slightest sign of demonization. The Roc Demon King’s expression slightly changed; he realized something was amiss and no longer tried to demonize Sun Wukong. “Nihou, I will assist you.” The Ox Demon King charged forward, also striking at the Roc Demon King. He and Sun Wukong teamed up to combat the Roc Demon King. At that moment, powerful mana burst forth ceaselessly from the three, causing the entire Great Thousand Worlds to tremble. The Lion Camel King gritted his teeth and also rushed forward. Although his strength was not equal to any of the three, he was not completely useless. At the very least, his attacks made the Roc Demon King pause, and those moments were opportunities for Sun Wukong and the Ox Demon King. Under the combined assault of the three, in but a quarter of an hour, the Roc Demon King was once again vanquished. However, he revived, returning to his original state. Having been obliterated twice in succession, the state of the Roc Demon King was somewhat unbearable. His combat power had evidently decreased quite a bit, making him much easier to defeat than before. Sun Wukong pondered; he came upon a possibility. “His immortality is tied to the Primordial Demonic Qi, but that doesn’t mean reviving doesn’t exhaust Nihou’s energy. Everyone, put in more effort. I estimate after killing Nihou thirty times, he won’t be able to hold up.” The previous Kunpeng had the consumption of collected souls. The Roc Demon King, however, only devoured the powerful to increase his strength and hadn’t collected that many souls. Therefore, though he possessed Primordial Demonic Qi, he couldn’t sustain it for long. As long as he was continuously defeated, he would inevitably collapse. The Roc Demon King’s expression subtly changed, recognizing this weakness. Kunpeng had souls collected over countless years to nourish the Primordial Demonic Qi, but he did not. Under such circumstances, if the battle continued, he would soon be defeated. Sun Wukong’s strength far exceeded his expectations. In a sole battle, the Roc Demon King felt that he might not be able to defeat Sun Wukong, not to mention now that Sun Wukong also had assistance. At this thought, the Roc Demon King considered retreating. He suddenly erupted, blocking the three’s attacks and then repelled them. The next moment, the Roc Demon King transformed into a streak of black light and disappeared. “I will pursue him, you take Nihou to the South Sea.” After speaking, Sun Wukong immediately gave chase. By his demeanor, he was resolutely determined to defeat the Roc Demon King, or rather, to destroy the Primordial Demonic Qi. Without waiting for the Ox Demon King to speak, Sun Wukong pursued and vanished. By the time the Ox Demon King and the Lion Camel King reacted, Sun Wukong had already disappeared. The two stared in stupefaction, both somewhat anxious. With the Primordial Demonic Qi empowering the Roc Demon King, he was formidable; Sun Wukong alone might not be his match. Now that he was pursuing alone, it was simply too dangerous. “Big brother, can we track Nihou’s traces and follow him? It’s too risky for him to chase and kill Nihou alone.” The Lion Camel King looked anxious as he tugged at the Ox Demon King’s hand. The Ox Demon King gave a wry smile, shook his head, and said, “Nihou and Nihou’s speed are both too fast for me. Even if I knew where they went, I most likely couldn’t catch up, let alone try to find them now. It’s impossible.” “Are you really that incapable, despite being the Great Saint, yet inferior to your own two brothers?” The Lion Camel King looked disdainful. The Ox Demon King glanced at him, unable to resist saying, “Are you stronger than Nihou then?” The Lion Camel King’s expression stiffened as he forced a laugh. Let that pass, as a big brother should spare his younger. After all, the Ox Demon King was already a Heavenly Venerate, while he himself was still mingling within the Celestial Immortal Realm. To criticize the Ox Demon King was clearly inappropriate. “Don’t worry, Nihou has an undying body, plus he’s extremely fast. Even if he can’t defeat his enemy, he can still escape, so you don’t need to worry. You should worry about yourself instead,” said the Ox Demon King as he glanced at the Lion Camel King. The Lion Camel King looked somewhat confused, scratching his head, “What’s wrong with me?” The Ox Demon King’s expression grew serious as he spoke gravely, “Now that the Three Realms are in turmoil, nowhere is safe, and Nihou is right at the center of the whirlpool. As Nihou’s sworn brother, if you don’t wish to die, follow me to the Purple Bamboo Forest in the South Sea. Under the Bodhisattva Guanyin’s protection, perhaps you’ll fare better.” “Is it really that scary?” The Lion Camel King exclaimed in surprise. The Ox Demon King sneered, “It’s more than scary. If you knew what Nihou has done, you wouldn’t think so. The Jade Emperor feigned death, and Nihou has installed the Great Emperor Ziwei in the position of the Great Heavenly Venerate. Now, the Supreme of the Three Realms is the Great Emperor Ziwei. Not only that, Nihou has also gathered all his friends and allies to support the Great Emperor Ziwei, fending off the joint attack of the other three of the Four Heavenly Kings, and helped the Great Emperor Ziwei to firmly establish the title of Great Heavenly Venerate.” The Lion Camel King gasped. Thousands of years ago, his younger brother, who called himself the Great Sage Equalling Heaven, caused Havoc in Heaven and made a name for himself. Thousands of years later, to his surprise, he was still restlessly changing the order of the Heavenly Palace. Today, the heavens had a new ruler; the Jade Emperor had become a thing of the past. With the Great Emperor Ziwei’s ascension to the ultimate ruler of the Three Realms, one could only imagine how many powerful beings had to die and how much blood had to flow.
