Rewriting the Gods

Just as the five were talking, the monkey suddenly looked in front of him, his eyes gleaming with golden light, and he vaguely sensed five vast auras emerging in the void.

"The Golden Eyes of Truth-Seeing do have some skill!"

A clear, crisp female voice rang out.

As soon as he finished speaking, five figures appeared in the void, standing in a row.

The five people did not exude any pressure; they simply stood there, yet a heavy aura emanated from them.

The monkey's eyes narrowed suddenly, and its gaze instantly locked onto Xiang Yu among the crowd. He was clad in armor, holding a long spear, and exuding an unparalleled aura of dominance that could sweep across the world.

It was none other than Xiang Yu, the overlord who captured the monkey and brought it to the Heavenly Court.

This person is actually a Taiyi Golden Immortal, not a Daluo Golden Immortal.

Even though the monkey had seen much of the world and was no longer as arrogant as before, and had become much more composed, he still couldn't help but be greatly shocked when he saw Xiang Yu.

This was the monkey's first major defeat since its debut, and also the most painful defeat in its heart.

For more than ten years, the monkey had believed that Xiang Yu was a Great Golden Immortal. He thought that Xiang Yu was bullying the weak, and he had never realized that Xiang Yu's talent far surpassed his own. He never expected that Xiang Yu was actually a Great Golden Immortal.

Almost subconsciously, the monkey activated the two runes in its eyes, trying to see if Xiang Yu was indeed a Taiyi Golden Immortal.

Before the monkey could see through Xiang Yu, a cold snort came, and in an instant, he felt ten thousand golden lights rise up and the radiance illuminate the void. The monkey felt that everything in front of him was golden and he could not see anything clearly.

He quickly withdrew his supernatural powers and turned to look at the female immortal among the crowd.

The Holy Mother of Fire Spirit was dressed in a crimson Taoist robe, with a golden aura on her head and a heroic spirit on her face. She did not look like a person who cultivated immortality, but more like a warrior on the battlefield!

The golden glow that had just obscured everything was actually emitted from the golden light above the female Taoist's head. The monkey glanced at the golden crown with some apprehension; this treasure seemed to restrain him somewhat.

As soon as the five appeared, the expressions of the five pilgrims became completely serious.

The monkey was the same. Although it could not thoroughly investigate the details of the group, judging from their aura alone, none of the five people in front of it were weak.

"Who goes there? State your name!"

The Holy Mother of Fire Spirit, with golden light flowing around her golden crown and fire-elemental Daoist runes surging around her, immediately declared, "I am the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit, the eldest disciple of Daoist Duobao of the Jie Sect!"

Yu Yuan, who was standing to the side, also spoke up: "I am Yu Yuan, a disciple of the Golden Spirit Mother of the Jie Sect!"

As the two finished speaking, the Overlord's domineering gaze fell upon them, and the entire void seemed to freeze. "Human, Xiang Yu!"

Shang Yang stood solemnly in the void, like a merciless judge, and said expressionlessly, "Human race, Shang Yang!"

Zhuang Zhou, the last one, stood in the center of the five with a smile and said lightly, "Human, Zhuang Zhou!"

After announcing his name, Xiang Yu stepped forward, his gaze fixed on the monkey below. "I was greatly astonished by your strength when I heard about you at Zhonghuang Mountain. You defeated all the heroes of my human race. Today, I'd like to see what you're capable of!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiang Yu took a step forward, instantly crossing the void and arriving in front of the monkey. He thrust out the Overlord Spear with unparalleled dominance, and his domineering will to sweep across the world erupted like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing down.

The long spear loomed in front of him, and the monkey felt as if the entire world was pressing down on him with that one strike. There was endless pressure from all directions, and he had nowhere to hide or avoid it.

The domineering will emanating from the spear terrified the monkey!

Even though the monkey had used the power of the Chaos Demon Ape several times, and much of the essence of the other four Chaos Monkeys had been integrated into its body, greatly increasing its combat power, it still wasn't confident in catching the spear.

He stayed behind; five hundred years ago, he still had the strength to spare!
This was the only thought in the monkey's mind at that moment.

Without the slightest hesitation, the monkey's eyes instantly turned blood red, and an endless ferocious aura swept out. Its golden fur turned black, and its body swelled up as if inflated, growing to more than ten feet in the blink of an eye!
The strongest form of the monkey, and now the strongest fighter among the pilgrims—the Chaos Demon Ape!
Transforming into a demonic ape, the monkey's aura instantly surged. The long staff in its hand thrust out like a spear. The two long weapons clashed, and at the moment of impact, the surrounding void shattered silently, and the land within a hundred miles turned to dust. Even the power of the Nine Cauldrons within could not protect the earth.

Their fighting power had long surpassed the limits of a Taiyi Golden Immortal.

A powerful counterforce swept out from the spear, overwhelming and vast. Even Xiang Yu had to take a step back to steady himself.

The demonic ape, however, simply swayed and steadily caught the aftershock.

In the first round, the demonic ape had a slight advantage, but only a slight one.

Although Xiang Yu was at a disadvantage, a brilliant light flashed in his eyes, the excitement of meeting a worthy opponent and a capable general.

"Well done!"

Xiang Yu's fighting spirit surged forth, and his domineering aura soared into the sky. His intense fighting spirit even made the demonic ape, who cultivated the Dao of War, frown. Xiang Yu's fighting spirit was in no way inferior to his own.

The Chaos Demon Ape was once the War God of Chaos; how could Xiang Yu possibly reach this level in terms of fighting spirit?

The monkey, who had not yet been affected by the ferocity of the demonic ape, was also greatly alarmed. Could Xiang Yu be the reincarnation of the Demon God of War?

The monkey had no time to think anymore. Seeing the overwhelming force of the spears before him, he immediately focused his mind and charged forward with his staff.

The two exchanged blows for several rounds, their fighting spirit rising steadily. With each battle, their strength grew ever more formidable, making them both the type to grow stronger with each fight.

They fought fiercely in the void. Initially, Xiang Yu was clearly at a disadvantage, but as the battle progressed, the gap between the two sides continued to narrow. Although the pace of narrowing was slow, it was indeed a continuous process, and Xiang Yu's disadvantage became less and less obvious.

Seeing the two standing together in the void, Fire Spirit Mother and Yu Yuan were secretly amazed. This was the Chaos Demon Ape formed by the fusion of the Four Chaos Monkeys, and the War God in the Chaos of the past.

Back then, even among the Chaos Gods, this was a top-tier existence. Unexpectedly, someone from the human race was able to fight him to a draw.

"What a formidable Xiang Yu! Among the Taiyi Immortals of my Jie Sect, none can rival him."

Zhuang Zhou laughed upon hearing this, saying, "Among the myriad immortals of the Jie Sect who have come to pay homage, there are quite a few with extraordinary talents."

Upon hearing this, the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit simply shook her head, "Different, different, not on the same level."

Yu Yuan, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but speak up: "Fellow Daoist Zhuang Zhou, this is the Chaos Demon Ape. I really can't believe that someone can fight him to a draw at the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm."

"My master once said that even someone who cultivates the path of war and possesses formidable combat power would need to be at least at the early stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm to defeat the Chaos Demon Ape."

"Fellow Daoist Xiang Yu is only at the peak of Taiyi Golden Immortal, yet he was able to fight this Chaos Demon Ape to a draw. It is truly astonishing."

Zhuang Zhou chuckled upon hearing this, "No matter how strong the Chaos Demon Ape is, its cultivation is only at the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm. Are people today necessarily inferior to those of the ancients, since they are both Taiyi Golden Immortals?" "In my opinion, people today are not necessarily inferior to those of the ancients!"

As soon as Zhuang Zhou finished speaking, the two of them froze on the spot, staring blankly at him.

In the primordial world, predecessors are often synonymous with power, and it is a consensus that current cultivators are inferior to those of the ancient times or even earlier.

Unexpectedly, the humans here don't think that way at all.

Yes, people today are not necessarily worse than people in ancient times.

Their skill levels are evenly matched, and it's still too early to tell who will win.

The Holy Mother of Fire Spirit's face showed admiration. "No wonder the human race has been able to grow from weak to strong step by step and become the number one race in the prehistoric world. I am ashamed of my own lack of such spirit."

"Fellow Daoist, you flatter me. These are the words of my ancestor when he taught me cultivation, not my own words."

As soon as the words were spoken, the Fire Spirit Mother and Yu Yuan suddenly realized what was going on. So this was what Senior Haofeng had said, then it was no wonder.

"Senior Haofeng is a unique figure throughout history, and his ambition commands our utmost respect!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the Holy Mother of Fire looked down at the remaining four pilgrims and said, "Fellow Daoist Xiang Yu has already made his move; it's time for us to follow suit."

The Fire Spirit Mother's gaze swept over the remaining four pilgrims, finally landing on Pigsy. Golden light shone from her hands, and two gleaming longswords appeared in her grasp.

It was none other than the Fire Spirit Mother's signature weapon—the Tai'a Sword!

The Holy Mother of Fire Spirit transformed into a streak of crimson light and rushed straight towards Zhu Ganglie. Before she even arrived, she slashed out with her Tai'a sword, and two crimson sword lights streaked across the void, heading straight for Zhu Ganglie.

Zhu Ganglie was immediately startled and quickly summoned his Heavenly Halberd to fight back.

In the face of this critical situation, Zhu Bajie, unusually, did not complain and instead used some of his skills to fight the enemy.

With a slash of his Heavenly Halberd, he shattered the sword light in the void.

However, at this moment, the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit had already reached Marshal Tianpeng. She swung out her Tai'a sword again, its light sharp and fierce, and immediately engaged in a fierce battle with Zhu Ganglie.

As the eldest disciple of Duobao Daoren, the senior disciple of the Jie Sect, and one of the most outstanding immortals among the third generation of disciples of the Jie Sect, the Fire Spirit Mother's abilities are naturally beyond question.

The two Tai'a swords were wielded in succession, and streams of sword energy swept out, forcefully suppressing Marshal Tianpeng.

As a disciple of Daoist Duobao, the magical treasures in the hands of the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit were all personally crafted by Daoist Duobao. They were all acquired items and were perfectly usable, so their combat power was not affected in the slightest.

Furthermore, given that Zhu Ganglie himself had little will to fight, the outcome of the battle was never in doubt from the start.

As the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit made her move, Yu Yuan in the void also made his move. Golden light shone in his hand, and the Acquired Spiritual Treasure Golden Light File appeared in his hand. He immediately attacked Sha Wujing.

Seeing this, Sha Wujing drew his sword and charged forward, his killing intent surging. A streak of blood-red sword light slashed straight at Yu Yuan.

Yu Yuan's expression remained unchanged. He raised his hand and easily shattered the sword. A golden file shot out from his right hand, heading straight for Sha Wujing's face.

The golden light shot out, causing the void to tremble wherever it passed. Sha Wujing thrust out with his sword, and a terrifying force passed through the Three Kill Sword and landed on Sha Wujing, catching him off guard and causing him to retreat two or three steps.

In a daze, Sha Wujing seemed to have returned to the battlefield where he fought against E Lai. Although Yu Yuan's strength was not as great as E Lai's, it was not much different. He was obviously another person with a strong physical body.

Just as he blocked the sword, he looked up again and saw Yu Yuan already standing in front of Sha Wujing, another golden file slashing straight at him.

A murderous aura emanated from Sha Wujing, and a dense crimson light rose as three sword shadows hovered behind him.

Killing all living beings!

With a single sword strike, Sha Wujing was sent flying backward, retreating dozens of steps before regaining his footing. However, Yu Yuan was also enveloped in a palpable killing intent, with streaks of blood-red light clinging to his body, attempting to erode his very being.

However, Yu Yuan's body was as strong as steel, firmly blocking the killing intent from his body.

The next moment, a strange blood-red light appeared in Yu Yuan's eyes, and a blood-red blade emerged deep within his eyes. A layer of blood-red light surged, directly dispelling the killing intent on his body.

"cut!"

Looking at Sha Wujing in the distance, Yu Yuan did not hesitate at all. As soon as he finished speaking, a streak of blood-red light shot out and headed straight for Sha Wujing.

Yu Yuan's signature weapon—the Blood-Transforming Divine Blade!

Sha Wujing felt a strong sense of alarm in his heart. Without the slightest hesitation, the three blood-red longswords behind him merged into one, transforming into a towering blood sword!
It encompasses all three paths of slaughter: killing heaven, killing earth, and killing all living beings.

The three swords combined were forcefully shattered by Yu Yuan's single strike, but this sword also blocked Yu Yuan's strike.

As the Blood-Transforming Divine Blade struck, the battle between the two instantly intensified. One was a leading figure among the third-generation disciples of the Jie Sect, and the other was a being transformed from the killing essence of the Styx Ancestor. Both were outstanding among the Taiyi Golden Immortals.

They've fought to a standstill, and it seems unlikely that a victor will emerge anytime soon.

However, Yu Yuan's Blood-Transforming Divine Blade was extremely powerful, and Sha Wujing could not resist it except by combining the three swords. Yu Yuan himself was made of steel and iron, and his physical strength was extremely strong. Combined with the Golden Light File in his hand, his combat power was extremely strong.

If the battle goes to the end, Yu Yuan will probably still emerge victorious.

Seeing that Yu Yuan had used the Blood Transformation Divine Blade, the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit no longer held back. Her eyes shone with crimson light, and the golden crown on her head instantly burst forth with dazzling light, releasing a golden glow that stretched for thirty-four feet.

Wherever the golden light reached, countless pillars of fire erupted, forming a raging sea of ​​fire that instantly trapped Pigsy within.

At the same time, dazzling dragon patterns lit up on the golden crown. As the Fire Spirit Mother urged them on, these dragon patterns detached from the golden crown and transformed into fire dragon soldiers clad in armor and armed with weapons.

In an instant, three thousand fire dragon soldiers appeared behind the Holy Mother of Fire.

Three thousand fire dragon soldiers appeared, and without the slightest hesitation, they directly activated the Samadhi True Fire. The three thousand flames merged, and the void instantly turned crimson. The rolling true fire surged and burned straight towards Zhu Ganglie.

The Samadhi True Fire of the three thousand Fire Dragon Soldiers, combined with the True Fire summoned by the Golden Cloud Crown, transformed the entire void into a sea of ​​fire, trapping Zhu Ganglie within it.

Zhu Ganglie tried several times but could not break through the encirclement of flames. He could only use the Emperor Bell to protect himself and temporarily block the burning flames.

But this was only a temporary solution, and Zhu Bajie was now at a significant disadvantage. (End of Chapter)
