Great Demon Sun Wukong

Indeed, Sun Wukong had long hoped to encounter a formidable opponent against whom he could fight with all his might. Yet, this wish remained unfulfilled for a long time – during the upheaval at the Heavenly Palace, his adversaries were either too weak or too strong for him to shake.

Only Erlang God could put up a fight against him, but he was then ambushed by the Supreme Elder Lord and the Howling Celestial Dog. Later, during his journey to the West, none of the demons and evil spirits he encountered were a match for him.

Finally, today, Sun Wukong got his wish. Although he did not understand why a Mirror Illusion Technique could be so lifelike, Sun Wukong no longer cared. As long as he could enjoy a fierce battle, he didn't care about anything else.

Some people are born to battle. A life without combat is utterly meaningless.

With each punch and kick, the two mountainous beasts fought more fiercely. Eventually, they both abandoned any defense, seeking only to attack and strike. As long as one could land more punches and kicks than the other, it was a victory. Such battles were incredibly brutal.

Although Sun Wukong's transformation into the giant ape greatly increased his defensive power, his strength also escalated to a terrifying realm. Under such intense attacks, both sustained grievous wounds.

At last, following another exchange of blows for wounds, both giant apes collapsed to the ground with a thud. They breathed heavily, completely drained of strength and unable to even stand.

Meanwhile, their injuries were healing at different rates. The mirrored version of Sun Wukong, at the moment of collapse, was enveloped in strands of earthy yellow energy. These threads burrowed into the ground, then began to frantically absorb the earth's power to replenish the spiritual power and heal the mirrored Sun Wukong's injuries.

As for Sun Wukong, a small flower appeared on his forehead after his fall. The flower spun rapidly, and as it did, a spectrum of colored light materialized out of thin air, encasing Sun Wukong within a vibrant light barrier.

Time flowed silently by. At this moment, a large part of Illusory Demon Island had turned into a wasteland, littered with huge footprints, enormous pits, and bloodstains everywhere. All of this was the result of the fierce battle between the two colossal apes.

Finally, after a quarter of an hour, Sun Wukong slowly got up. The five-colored light barrier gently dissipated. At this time, there wasn't a single scar on Sun Wukong's body, and his spiritual prowess had reached its peak state.

Gazing at himself, a series of surprises washed over Sun Wukong's heart. Was the recovery capability of this little flower excessively powerful? Not only were all his injuries healed, but his physical strength and spiritual power had also been restored to their peak. With this flower, his combat power would definitely increase manifold!

Looking at the earthy yellow giant ape, although most of its injuries were healed, it was clear that its physical and spiritual power had not fully returned to their peak. Nonetheless, this earthy yellow giant ape was indeed formidable – solely relying on its own strength, it managed to heal most of its wounds in a quarter of an hour, which was no simple feat.

The earthy-colored Heaven-Supporting Giant Ape saw Sun Wukong stand up, and though surprise was evident in its eyes, there was still no hint of retreat. With a roar, it charged over. Meanwhile, the Jingu Bang, which had been casually left to one side by the originally earthy-colored giant ape, now seemed as if it had received some summons, flying over.

The glow on the Jingu Bang intensified to an earthy color. As it flew to the giant ape's side, the radiance wrapped around the earthy-colored giant ape as if it were something tangible.

Immediately after, Sun Wukong heard the sounds of mechanical assembly clicking into place. In the next moment, as the chaos dissipated, he saw that the originally earthy-colored Heaven-Supporting Giant Ape was now clad in a resplendent suit of golden armor. Even more striking, atop its head was a helmet molded in the image of a snarling giant ape's head.

The golden armor set was complete, with a helmet, breastplate, war skirt, arm guards, handguards, leg guards, war boots, and even a red cape trailing behind. The originally fierce-looking giant ape now exuded an indescribable aura of majestic imposingness.

What surprised Sun Wukong even more was that the giant ape, which had only partially recovered from its wounds and energy, reached its peak state in an instant after donning the armor. Additionally, the giant ape was now enveloped in an extremely dense Earth Elemental Power.

When the giant ape was about thirty feet from Sun Wukong, it suddenly beckoned with both hands, and the dense Earth Element around it transformed into a brilliant golden battle axe so large it was taller than the earthy-colored giant ape itself.

It seemed that in their previous battle, this being had not used its full strength at all. Transforming into Sun Wukong's likeness and turning its weapon into Jingu Bang could have just been tactics to sow confusion in Sun Wukong's mind.

In fact, Sun Wukong had realized by now that the golden-armored giant ape in front of him was not some illusion technique, but rather the Guardian of the fourth challenge's true form was this giant ape, and the previous mimicry and transformations were merely strategies to intimidate him.

At this point, there was no other option but to fight to the death. As he watched the earthy-colored Heaven-Supporting Giant Ape roar and drag its enormous battle axe, Sun Wukong felt an unprovoked surge of battle spirit boiling within him.

"I am Sun Wukong, the Heaven-Supporting Giant Ape, who dares challenge me?" he bellowed. With a flick of his wrist, the Jingu Bang immediately appeared in his hand, transforming into a massive staff that was even taller than Sun Wukong and as thick as an adult's waist.

It was only when Jingu Bang expanded that one could clearly see a golden dragon coiled around it, and not only that, it was intricately engraved with various unknown insects, fish, birds, and beasts—the entirety of ancient primordial species.

Sun Wukong bent his knees slightly, arched his waist, and tensed the muscles in his arms, which seemed to climb and intertwine like branches. Clasping the Jingu Bang tightly in his hands, he was prepared to meet the thunderous assault of the earthy-colored Heavenly Giant Ape head-on.

"I am Emperor Huang, the Earth Element Divine Ape!" boomed a voice as explosive as thunder, as the earthy-colored giant ape declared its name.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Hearing the giant ape announce itself, Sun Wukong was truly taken aback. Could it really be the Earth Element Divine Ape?

Without giving Sun Wukong time to ponder, Emperor Huang grabbed the battle axe with one hand and spun around; the axe came slashing horizontally. Sun Wukong was not to be outdone and blocked with Jingu Bang at his side. Instantly, Sun Wukong felt an overwhelming force, and caught off guard, was pushed back more than thirty feet by the axe while still holding onto Jingu Bang.

Following that, Emperor Huang used one hand to prop itself off the ground, while a massive foot kicked towards Sun Wukong. The speed matched Sun Wukong's, and the agility might even have been slightly superior.
