Chapter 3392: The Great Battle
Before the battle even started, Di Hong, the Patriarch of the Qilin Clan, had already reduced the nearby tiny planets into ashes. Based on the terrifying power, it seemed like even bigger planets would not be able to resist it.
“Such a powerful law of fire!” Duan Ling Tian was truly impressed by Di Hong’s strength. This was the strongest law of fire he had seen so far. By fusing several triple-fused profundities, Di Hong’s strength greatly surpa.s.sed those Ten Directions Celestial Emperors who could fuse one triple-fused profundity. This was probably one of the reasons why Di Hong was one of the top Seven Star G.o.d of War.
Duan Ling Tian was not the only one who was impressed by Di Hong’s strength. Even Elder Huo and Meng Luo were impressed. Elder Huo was particularly impressed since he comprehended the law of fire as well. As soon as the battle started, his attention had always been on Di Hong. For this reason, he could keenly sense how powerful Di Hong’s law of fire was.
“Nice one!” Sun Wu Kong said excitedly after Di Hong attacked!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The flames lit up the universe. From afar, they looked like flaming ribbons or fiery pythons snaking their way toward Sun Wu Kong from all directions.
Faced with Di Hong’s sudden disappearance and ferocious attack, Sun Wu Kong leisurely tightened his grip on his Auspicious Golden Hoop Staff before lifting it up. The staff thrummed before he tossed it out.
Boom!
Swoos.h.!.+
When the Auspicious Golden Hoop Staff was tossed out, it emitted a greyish-black energy. However, it was not really obvious unless one looked closely since the surroundings were dark. It was the complete opposite of the eye-catching flames.
Nevertheless, when the Auspicious Golden Hoop Staff made contact with the flames, it proved to Duan Ling Tian and the others that even though its energy was inconspicuous, it did not affect its strength.
Boom!
As soon as the Auspicious Golden Hoop Staff made contact with one of the ribbons of flames, it extinguished the flames immediately. What was left was only tiny specks of embers floating in the starry galaxy.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of deafening explosions rang in the air as Duan Ling Tian and the others watched Sun Wu Kong standing unmoving as his staff shot around, extinguis.h.i.+ng the ribbons of flames.
Although Duan Ling Tian was standing quite far from the battlefield, he could still feel his eardrums aching slightly. The t.i.tled Celestial Emperors around him were naturally not as affected as him due to their superior cultivation bases.
“Old man Di Hong, hurry up and use the Qilin Clan’s Divine Artifact!” Sun Wu Kong said when the Auspicious Golden Hoop Staff returned to his hand. At this time, his eyes began to glow and burn with flames. Following that, two beams of light shot out from his eyes.
“I-is that the Fiery Golden Eyes?” Duan Ling Tian inhaled sharply. He did not expect the legend on earth to be so accurate with its description of Sun Wu Kong. He could tell the Fiery Golden Eyes weren’t from any laws and was a special technique. Based on Sun Wu Kong’s earlier attacks, he speculated that Sun Wu Kong had comprehended the law of destruction. All of Sun Wu Kong’s attacks were intense and powerful as though they could destroy everything that stood in their paths.
At this time, Di Hong finally broke his silence. His voice was grim as he said, “Heaven’s Equal Celestial Emperor, you’ve improved tremendously since 1,000 years ago. It seems like I might not be able to win even with the Flaming Spirit Mountain.”
Di Hong’s admission caused an uproar among the t.i.tled Celestial Emperors of the Qilin Clan.
Di Yun Long smiled wryly. “The Patriarch always means what he says… Since he said these words, they must be true!”
The other t.i.tled Celestial Emperors from the Qilin Clan shared the same thoughts as Di Yun Long as well.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
An earth-shattering noise suddenly rang out as a huge fiery mountain suddenly appeared above Sun Wu Kong. Then, it began to fall rapidly on him. Its speed was so fast that the wind stirred violently in its wake.
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
The violent wind generated by the fiery mountain swept across the planets in the vicinity, wreaking havoc on those planets.
Boom!
Everyone watched as the fiery mountain crashed down on Sun Wu Kong. A figure could be seen standing leisurely with his hands on his back with a dignified expression on his face. Needless to say, the figure belonged to Di Hong, and the mountain under his feet was the Divine Artifact, the Flaming Spirit Mountain.
Sun Wu Kong laughed. “Perfect timing! Let me and my Auspicious Golden Hoop Staff experience your Qilin Clan’s divine artifact!”
At the same time, the Auspicious Golden Hoop Staff instantly grew in size. The scene that only existed in movies and series in Duan Ling Tian’s memory had come to life at this moment. Duan Ling Tian was in awe.
The Auspicious Golden Hoop Staff kept growing and growing. Eventually, it seemed like one end had stabbed down into one of the realms while the other end was about to pierce the huge fiery mountain above it.
Bang!
Alas, before the staff could pierce the fiery mountain, it crashed down.
When the dust settled, the handsome young man was nowhere to be seen. In his place, was a monkey with golden flame-like fur. Clearly, Sun Wu Kong had reverted to his true form. He wore red and golden armor, and a coronet with two long feathers could be seen on his head; he looked every bit like the Great Sage Equal to Heaven that was described in the legend on earth. His armor had to be a Celestial Weapon or something since it could change according to his size.
“Di Hong, take this!” Sun Wu Kong’s size increased to that of King Kong that was depicted in the movie on earth. He spun the Auspicious Golden Hoop Staff that had also increased in size and slammed it down on the Flaming Spirit Mountain.
Boom!
The Auspicious Golden Hoop Staff seemed as though it contained all the power of the heavens. As Sun Wu Kong swung it around, the planets that it came in contact with were immediately decimated regardless of their sizes.
The scene before Duan Ling Tian’s eyes made his blood boil. His unruly gaze, fearless att.i.tude, the invincible air around him, the Auspicious Golden Hoop Staff that he could manipulate at will; these were all things that existed in the literature on earth. No wonder so many people idolized Sun Wu Kong on earth.
Bang!
Under everyone’s watchful gaze, Sun Wu Kong slammed the Auspicious Golden Hoop Staff on the Flaming Spirit Mountain again, sending sparks flying.
With this, the Flaming Spirit Mountain suddenly tilted to one side, seeming as though it was on the verge of collapse.
At this time when it seemed like Di Hong had been cornered even with his divine artifact, a loud roar suddenly rang in the air.
Following that, a huge fiery Qilin appeared in front of everyone’s eyes, carrying the Flaming Spirit Mountain. The fiery Qilin’s size was terrifyingly huge, and its eyes burned ferociously with flames.
“Heaven’s Equal Celestial Emperor, you’ve really improved a lot. You must have had a fortuitous encounter some time during the past 1,000 years, right?” the fiery Qilin asked.
Sun Wu Kong chuckled before he said, “Old Man Di Hong, I wouldn’t have come if I’m not confident. Come on, let’s continue!”
“Sometimes I truly envy you. You have no responsibilities and are free to roam the world and do as you please. Only by wandering the world one can come across chances to improve…” The fiery Qilin sighed; his envy was apparent in his words.
Subsequently, the flames on the Qilin’s body surged as the Flaming Spirit Mountain flew toward Sun Wu Kong again.
On the other hand, Sun Wu Kong turned the Auspicious Golden Hoop Staff back to its original form. Then, he used it like a baseball bat to hit the Flaming Spirit Mountain away. However, he was always sent flying back due to the huge impact. As he flew back, he crashed into a few planets, destroying them.
Upon seeing this, chills ran up Duan Ling Tian’s spine.
‘If they were fighting in the Yan Huang Realm, I’m afraid earth would no longer exist… Both of them are terrifyingly powerful!’ Duan Ling Tian had always been confident about his strength, especially since he possessed the Five Divine Elements. However, he knew he would be completely helpless if faced with Sun Wu Kong or Di Hong. It did not matter even if he unleashed everything he had, he was no match for them.
Duan Ling Tian thought Sun Wu Kong would be at least slightly injured by the impact of the attack when he suddenly heard Sun Wu Kong laughing.
“Nice! Nice!” Sun Wu Kong’s strong and loud voice rang out. Following that, a golden figure rapidly shot toward the battlefield again.
