50 -50: Battle Again After 500 Years
The Demon King of Chaos looked up and saw a monkey with a face and mouth like that of Thunder Duke, standing less than five feet tall, appearing in the distance.
Compared to his own stature of over ten feet tall, this monkey barely reached his waist.
However, upon seeing this monkey, the Demon King of Chaos’s face showed an extremely complex expression.
Excitement mingled with joy and agitation.
In this place, having been trapped by the Formation for so long, for someone who had ruled over a mountain and reveled in countless years of authority, it was simply a nightmare.
There was nothing, only the ever-unchanging forest.
He even harbored thoughts of death.
Now that this monkey had finally appeared, whether it was the other dying or him dying, either outcome would be enough.
With this thought, the Demon King of Chaos lifted the long saber in his hand, took a big stride as if it were two, and as he approached Sun Wukong, he fiercely slashed down with the blade.
The sound of cutting wind howled, as if the blade’s light could tear the heavens and the earth apart, immensely powerful.
However, at that moment.
“Wait!”
Sun Wukong suddenly made a stopping gesture.
The long saber halted in mid-air, and the Demon King of Chaos grunted, looking at Sun Wukong with some surprise.
Sun Wukong, however, shook his head and said, “Old Sun did not come to fight a decisive battle with you.
You should go back!”
“What?
I…”
The Demon King of Chaos refused to go back.
Going back would be no different than being delivered to the Western Heaven by those two Bald Donkeys, wouldn’t it?
Moreover, having finally seen Sun Wukong after being trapped for so long, he had to vent his anger no matter what.
As he spoke, he attempted to slash down again.
Boom!
The steel saber directly fell, landing on the ground.
A crack appeared on the ground, extending into the distance.
But though the steel saber had clearly fallen on Sun Wukong’s body, there was not a trace of blood.
Then a single Monkey Fur, fluttering down leisurely, followed.
A voice slowly reached the ears of the Demon King of Chaos.
“You want a life-and-death battle with Old Sun?
In five hundred years, right here, Old Sun will surely answer your challenge!”
The voice slowly faded away.
The Demon King of Chaos, stunned by the scene, realized that it was only the Art of Transformation.
“You despicable monkey!”
The Demon King of Chaos, knowing he had been tricked, was enraged.
Speaking out, he intended to chase after the scent of Sun Wukong and pursue him, but at that moment, the aura of everything around him changed involuntarily.
And it became somewhat profoundly mysterious, and even more enigmatic.
Simultaneously, all the surrounding auras swept toward him.
In an instant, when he came to his senses again, he found himself already outside of the Formation.
Two monks with shiny bald heads appeared before him.
It was the Sunlight Bodhisattva and the Moonlight Bodhisattva.
“Is it the Demon King of Chaos?”
“He actually came out?”
Initially, the Sunlight Bodhisattva and the Moonlight Bodhisattva were also incredulous.
After all, the Formation that they couldn’t break was broken by the Demon King of Chaos?
“Greetings to the two Bodhisattvas!”
Upon seeing the two Bodhisattvas, the Demon King of Chaos also confirmed that he had indeed come out.
He promptly bowed respectfully.
“Evildoer, how did you get out?
Where is that monkey?”
Sunlight Bodhisattva asked with a frown.
They had the Demon King of Chaos come here for the expressed purpose of having Sun Wukong kill him, and now that the Demon King of Chaos has emerged, doesn’t that mean all of their previous efforts were in vain?
Thinking about that terrifying formation just now filled Sunlight Bodhisattva with immense anger.
Having cultivated for countless years, they were actually trapped by a monkey, and for such a long time too.
If this got out, they wouldn’t have the face to meet other immortals and gods.
“Did you not see that macaque?”
Moonlight Bodhisattva frowned and looked at the Demon King of Chaos.
Their residual projections on the body of the Demon King of Chaos had already dissipated; naturally, they were unaware of what happened afterward.
However, the formation was still intact, so clearly, Sun Wukong, who set up the formation, was still alive.
Therefore, it was very likely that they hadn’t even seen the face of Sun Wukong.
But now that the opportunity had been presented, was Sun Wukong really not taking action?
Moonlight Bodhisattva simply couldn’t believe it.
What exactly was this monkey planning to do?
“Reporting to the Bodhisattva, this little demon did indeed see that Sun Wukong, only…”
Having said this, the Demon King of Chaos paused helplessly, then raised his head to look at Sunlight Bodhisattva and Moonlight Bodhisattva and took out the monkey fur in his hand.
“It’s a pity this little demon only saw a clone formed by Sun Wukong’s transformation using monkey fur…”
Sunlight Bodhisattva and Moonlight Bodhisattva couldn’t help but exchange looks, feeling somewhat desperate.
They had gone through the effort of Hercules to break countless formations and had reached the vicinity of Sun Wukong’s cave dwelling.
And now, they emerged without even seeing the monkey’s true face?
For a moment, Sunlight Bodhisattva and Moonlight Bodhisattva didn’t know what to say.
“Since he’s sent a clone, he must have said something!”
Sunlight Bodhisattva immediately recalled something and asked with a frown.
Moonlight Bodhisattva also looked at the Demon King of Chaos.
“He did say something!”
At this point, the Demon King of Chaos nodded, but he dared not continue speaking.
“What did he say?”
Moonlight Bodhisattva frowned at the Demon King of Chaos, pressing for an answer.
“He said that only after five hundred years would he be willing to fight me to the death!”
“What?”
Sunlight Bodhisattva and Moonlight Bodhisattva couldn’t help but frown deeply.
Five hundred years?
Once those five hundred years passed, how would they initiate the Calamity of Measurement of the Journey to the West?
However, they also believed that the Demon King of Chaos did not seem like the lying type.
And they believed the Demon King of Chaos wouldn’t dare lie to them, but now what could they do?
“Elder brother, what should we do?”
Moonlight Bodhisattva’s brow was tightly furrowed as he looked at Sunlight Bodhisattva.
Then, with a wave of his hand, a powerful formation materialized, enveloping them and the Demon King of Chaos within it.
No matter what Sun Wukong was planning, they couldn’t let their guard down.
Since Sun Wukong was clearly wary and not falling for it, it seemed they could only force him onto the path they wanted him to take themselves.
Sunlight Bodhisattva shook his head and said, “No, no, if we act now, the monkey will only become even more cautious.
Even the Demon King of Chaos’s action has made this monkey so wary; if we do anything else, I’m afraid this monkey will only get further away.
By then, I’m afraid it might ruin everything!”
Sun Wukong was of crucial importance to Buddhism, and although they didn’t know that Sun Wukong was also related to another Calamity, his mere presence to propagate Buddhism spoke volumes.
Naturally, they couldn’t force their hand and compel Sun Wukong.
After hearing this, Moonlight Bodhisattva nodded and then added, “But if that’s the case, what should we do next?”
As he spoke, his gaze swept over the Demon King of Chaos.
Sunlight Bodhisattva sighed: “We can only wait!”
“Sun Wukong is being overly cautious now, unwilling to enter the trap we’ve designed for him.
However, this macaque is naturally arrogant and self-important, with no suitable treasure at hand.
Over time, how could he be content with this?
Surely he will emerge, and once he leaves the formation, we just have to coax him into it!”
