Rebirth in Journey to the West: Sun Wukong-Chapter 870 - 871: Fusion of Fierce Beasts (First Update!)
Bang!
Sun Wukong stepped onto the Beast Fighting Arena, and instantly a barrier rose from the edge of the arena, enveloping the entire arena in a cylindrical shape reaching the sky.
Although this place was inside a palace, the palace roof was completely out of sight, as if it were a space unto itself.
After the barrier appeared, the statues of fierce beasts on the stands started to move.
Chunks of stone debris fell from the statues, revealing explosive power-filled bodies inside.
These statues were actually sealed fierce beasts!
The control and manipulation abilities of the Ancient Beast Spirit Sect over fierce beasts were truly extraordinary and awe-inspiring!
However, how did such a powerful sect collapse overnight?
Sun Wukong had been pondering this question for a long time, but now was not the time for this. One by one, the fierce beast statues on the Beast Fighting Arena were unsealed and resurrected, their ferocity spreading across the entire arena.
"So this is the so-called Beast Fighting Arena challenge! I have to defeat all these fierce beasts to pass? Haha! Interesting!"
Fighting spirit surged in Sun Wukong’s eyes. He reached into his ear and pulled out the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod. At the same time, with a thought, he summoned his External Incarnation, and the Ruyi Silver-Hooped Rod separated from the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod and fell into the hands of his External Incarnation.
"Let’s have a good fight together!"
With a loud roar, Sun Wukong swung his rod fiercely at a giant serpent beast.
Beast roars shook the sky, staff force raged, and the entire arena was enveloped in a golden glow, with various fierce beast auras wreaking havoc.
"Brother Pangu, shouldn’t we help Wukong?"
From afar, Zhao Jun, watching Sun Wukong navigate among the fierce beasts, frowned, "There are too many fierce beasts on the Beast Fighting Arena!"
"Help? How? Don’t you see the barrier enveloping the arena?"
Pangu glanced at Zhao Jun and pointed to the barrier covering the entire arena, "Do you think we can break through that barrier and rush in?"
"Well..."
Zhao Jun scratched his head. Judging by the aura emanating from the barrier, the power contained within it was not simple. With their current cultivation strength, breaking through was barely possible!
"That settles it, then? Just watch. Wukong isn’t as weak as you think!"
Pangu’s lips curled into an amused smile, "That kid has many hidden skills!"
"Weak? I never thought he was weak, quite the contrary!"
Zhao Jun muttered under his breath and fell silent, quietly watching the fight.
"Frenzied Monkey Stick Technique!"
"Explode for me!"
Sun Wukong became increasingly excited as he fought, a faint golden glow starting to emanate from his body. The Frenzied Monkey Stick Technique whirled wildly, reducing the giant serpent beast he initially faced into several sections.
Frenzied Monkey Stick Technique is the most suitable combat technique for group fights. Once unleashed, unless interrupted, its power continuously increases, though the practitioner’s sanity diminishes, leaving only the instinct to fight and kill.
This was not the first time Sun Wukong had used the Frenzied Monkey Stick Technique. In the past, his enemies would always try to interrupt his frenzied state, but these fierce beasts were different.
These beasts, originally imprisoned killing machines, knew only slaughter and destruction after being unsealed, aiming to destroy any living thing on the Beast Fighting Arena.
For them, Sun Wukong was that non-comparable target. Their goal was to eliminate him, without considering his state or attempting to interrupt it.
"Yah ha!"
With a horizontal swipe, Sun Wukong cleaved a roaring bear beast in two. The Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod then spun twice and ruthlessly smashed into a Qiongqi’s head, shattering it like a watermelon.
These fierce beasts, felled by Sun Wukong, disintegrated upon hitting the arena floor, merging into the ground.
One by one, the fierce beasts fell, their corpses merging with the ground, reducing the pressure on Sun Wukong until he stopped the Frenzied Monkey Stick Technique.
"Strange, this time using the Frenzied Monkey Stick Technique feels different from before."
Sun Wukong murmured. In the past, using the technique meant gradually losing his sanity, but this time was different. His divine consciousness seemed to remain at a borderline, not declining further.
"Roar~!"
A beast roar sounded as the last fierce beast pounced at Sun Wukong’s back. Without moving his body, Sun Wukong spun the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod around and thrust it backward, instantly piercing the lunging beast.
The fierce light in the beast’s eyes abruptly halted, then lost all luster as it collapsed to the ground, slowly merging into the underground.
"Does this count as passing?"
Sun Wukong raised his head, looking around, frowning slightly as the arena barrier remained. This meant the challenge was not over!
But there were no more fierce beasts on the arena. Where was the remaining challenge?
The ground beneath his feet began to tremble. With a thought, Sun Wukong stomped hard on the ground and leapt high, hammering the ground with his Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod.
Boom!
The Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod struck the ground, and the shockwave spread in all directions. In the next moment, the entire ground exploded as an enormous beast charged out, jaws wide, snapping at Sun Wukong.
"A fusion beast?"
Sun Wukong’s eyes flashed with golden light. Using his Void-Breaking Moon Eyes, he saw the essence of this beast, formed from the blood and flesh of the beasts he had slain!
Boom!
After missing its bite, the beast turned and spewed a fierce fire column at Sun Wukong, striking him head-on.
"What a domineering flame!"
Sun Wukong felt an immense fiery power hit him, his whole body stinging. Were it not for his Chaos Fire, his body would have turned to ashes.
"You think only you can use flames? Hmph!"
Startled, yet driven by determination, Sun Wukong channeled his energy. The Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod in his hand pointed forward, releasing a torrent of Chaos Fire that pushed the fire column back, pouring into the gaping maw of the beast.
"Roar~!"
The beast howled in pain, its sharp claws swiping at Sun Wukong.
Sun Wukong dodged, striking out with his rod at the claws, only to feel a massive counterforce reverberate back through the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod.
"Such a tough body!"
