Primordial Era: Becoming the Great Emperor of Humanity from the Start

Chapter 194 Breaking the Shackles!

After a moment of contemplation, the Jade Emperor Haotian realized that everything the Queen Mother of the West had said was indeed very reasonable.

Whether Yang Jian goes all out or not is actually irrelevant. As someone listed on the Investiture of the Gods, Yang Jian cannot refuse the Heavenly Court's orders.

Even if it's just for show, Yang Jian still has to go to the Immortal Realm and fight Sun Wukong. That would be enough for the Jade Emperor.

The important thing is not whether Yang Jian can suppress Sun Wukong, but that Yang Jian fights Sun Wukong and stirs up the waters completely.

Moreover, both Sun Wukong and Yang Jian are proud and arrogant individuals, and once they start fighting, neither of them will easily admit defeat.

The Jade Emperor Haotian only needs to stay behind the scenes and control the overall situation, and by stirring things up, he can certainly make things develop in the direction he expects.

Furthermore, as far as the Jade Emperor Haotian is concerned, the Heavenly Court suffered heavy losses this time because of the Western Religion, so the Western Religion should also contribute.

Soon, the Jade Emperor Haotian's order reached Yang Jian, who merely snorted coldly upon receiving it.

"Hmph! The Jade Emperor Haotian actually sent me to suppress Sun Wukong. Does he really consider me a subject of the Heavenly Court?" Yang Jian said disdainfully.

Since being listed on the Investiture of the Gods, Yang Jian, though nominally a subject of the Heavenly Court, has never shown any respect to the Jade Emperor Haotian.

Now, the Jade Emperor Haotian has actually ordered Yang Jian to go to the Earthly Immortal Realm to suppress Sun Wukong. Isn't this a huge joke?

Jiang Heng didn't tell Yang Jian about Sun Wukong, for no other reason than he didn't want the battle to be too boring.

However, although Yang Jian was extremely disdainful of the Jade Emperor Haotian's orders, he could not ignore them due to the constraints of the Investiture of the Gods.

Whether or not Yang Jian could suppress Sun Wukong, or whether or not he should suppress Sun Wukong, was entirely up to his own will, but he had no choice but to make this trip.

"Yang Jian, where are you going?" As soon as Yang Jian stepped out, he saw Nezha and Kong Xuan coming together.

After the Investiture of the Gods, Yang Jian and Nezha did not leave the Immortal Realm. Instead, under Jiang Heng's arrangement, they became the guardians of the human race.

Over the years, the human race has been at peace. Nezha and Kong Xuan, having nothing else to do, often visit Yang Jian.

"The Jade Emperor has issued an order, commanding me to go to Flower Fruit Mountain in the Eastern Continent to suppress a demon monkey named Sun Wukong!" Yang Jian said.

"Has the Jade Emperor Haotian lost his mind? He actually sent you to suppress a demon monkey?" Nezha said, quite surprised.

In the three realms of Heaven, Earth, and Man, who among the powerful beings with even a little cultivation doesn't know that the Jade Emperor Haotian and the Queen Mother of the West almost died at the hands of Yang Jian?

Although Yang Jian is nominally a subject of the Heavenly Court, he will definitely attack the Heavenly Court again given the chance.

"Hmph! Not only are you aware of this matter, but the Jade Emperor Haotian must also be aware of it, yet the Jade Emperor Haotian still issued such an order!"

This shows that the matter is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface. What secret is the Jade Emperor Haotian up to?

"You've come at the perfect time! I was just about to go and find out about Sun Wukong's background!" Yang Jian said.

Yang Jian was certainly not a reckless person. The Jade Emperor Haotian's order came out of nowhere, and he couldn't possibly not find out what had happened first.

"This matter is simple. I'll have someone inquire about it right away!" Kong Xuan said.

Now that Kong Xuan and Nezha are both guardians of the human race, it would be an easy task for them to inquire about Sun Wukong's origins.

Before long, Yang Jian and the other two learned how Sun Wukong had wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace and caused the Heavenly Court to suffer a crushing defeat.

"This Sun Wukong is quite capable; he managed to escape unscathed after wreaking havoc in Heaven!" Yang Jian said.

Yang Jian himself had done something like causing havoc in the Heavenly Court, so he naturally knew that the Heavenly Court's strength was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

The Jade Emperor Haotian and the Queen Mother of the West, who alone can gather the power of the Heavenly Realm, are top-tier experts in the Three Realms today.

It's impossible for Sun Wukong to escape to the Earthly Immortal Realm after causing havoc in the Heavenly Court without possessing some extraordinary abilities.

"No matter how great that monkey's abilities are, he can never be a match for you, Yang Jian!" Nezha said.

Nezha naturally had full confidence in Yang Jian, whose strength had already been fully revealed during the Investiture of the Gods.

"Then I'll go and meet this Sun Wukong, and while I'm at it, see what kind of schemes the Jade Emperor Haotian is plotting!" Yang Jian said in a deep voice.

As far as Yang Jian was concerned, Sun Wukong's ability to wreak havoc in the Heavenly Court meant that he was an enemy, not a friend, of the Jade Emperor, and the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

"This matter does indeed need to be treated with caution. That Sun Wukong is not important. What is important is what the Jade Emperor Haotian is plotting behind the scenes."

"Now that the great calamity is approaching, we must be careful. How about this, Nezha and I will accompany you on this journey!" Kong Xuan said.

Yang Jian nodded. Having witnessed the terror of the Investiture of the Gods calamity, Yang Jian and the other two understood that during such a calamity, no amount of caution was excessive.

After making their decision, Yang Jian and the other two headed towards Flower Fruit Mountain. In just a short while, they arrived at Flower Fruit Mountain.

As soon as Yang Jian made a move, not only did the Jade Emperor Haotian receive the news, but there were also quite a few powerful figures in the Three Realms who were paying attention to Yang Jian's movements.

In an instant, the eyes of many powerful beings throughout the Three Realms were focused on Flower Fruit Mountain, awaiting the start of a great battle.

At this time, Jiang Heng and Houtu Zuwu also arrived near Huaguo Mountain. He had been looking forward to Yang Jian's decisive battle with Sun Wukong for a long time.

"With Yang Jian's strength, if he were to fight Sun Wukong, Sun Wukong would probably find it difficult to withstand him!" Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, said with a smile.

During the Investiture of the Gods, Yang Jian had already taken another step forward from the peak Quasi-Saint level, and his strength had reached an incredible level.

Even though the Jade Emperor Haotian, who could gather the power of the heavens, and the Queen Mother of the West joined forces, they still almost died at the hands of Yang Jian.

Now, a long time has passed since the Investiture of the Gods, and no one knows whether Yang Jian's strength has improved again.

Yang Jian's strength is self-evident. He absolutely deserves the title of the strongest person in the Saint Realm.

Although Sun Wukong defeated Lu Ya and escaped unscathed after causing havoc in the Heavenly Court, he was still inferior to Yang Jian in both cultivation and strength.

"Under normal circumstances, Sun Wukong is indeed no match for Yang Jian. But being in adversity is precisely where the opportunity to break through the limits lies!" Jiang Heng said.

"Oh? It seems you think highly of that Sun Wukong!" said Houtu, the Ancestral Witch.

Jiang Heng smiled without saying a word. The reason he was optimistic about Sun Wukong was probably because of some lingering feelings from his past life.

For Jiang Heng, Sun Wukong was not merely the protagonist of the Journey to the West tribulation, nor was he simply a powerful monkey demon.

That's the Monkey King! The indomitable Great Sage Equal to Heaven! In later generations, how many people have regarded Sun Wukong as a hero to be worshipped?

Jiang Heng was so looking forward to this battle because it was actually extremely important for Sun Wukong.

Whether Sun Wukong can break free from the shackles of fate and shed his status as a pawn depends on whether he can turn the impossible into the possible in this battle.

"Sun Wukong, I am Yang Jian. The Heavenly Court has ordered me to come and suppress you. Why don't you show yourself at once?" Yang Jian stood in mid-air and said loudly.

With Yang Jian's current strength, he could naturally sense that there was indeed an extremely powerful aura within Flower Fruit Mountain.

Clearly, Sun Wukong was currently in Flower Fruit Mountain. Yang Jian didn't bother looking for Sun Wukong and directly revealed his identity.

"Hmph! Lackeys of the Heavenly Court, I, Old Sun, didn't even bother to find you, yet you come knocking on my door yourselves. Are you so eager to go into reincarnation?"

Just as Yang Jian had predicted, a powerful aura immediately rose from Flower Fruit Mountain as soon as he revealed his identity.

In an instant, Sun Wukong, dressed in golden chainmail, wearing a phoenix-winged purple-gold crown, and lotus-silk cloud-walking shoes, appeared in front of Yang Jian.

Holding his Ruyi Jingu Bang, Sun Wukong glared at Yang Jian with an unfriendly expression, his eyes filled with undisguised murderous intent.

At this point, Sun Wukong already considered Yang Jian to be a lackey of the Heavenly Court, so naturally he couldn't have a good attitude towards Yang Jian.

"Hahaha! Although I am nominally a subject of the Heavenly Court, I want to kill the Jade Emperor Haotian even more than you do!" Yang Jian said with a laugh.

Sun Wukong was slightly taken aback. He never expected that Yang Jian would say such a thing.

If Yang Jian were a lackey of the Heavenly Court, constantly proclaiming his intention to kill the Jade Emperor Haotian, that would be a grave act of treason.

"Who exactly are you?" Sun Wukong asked in a deep voice, his face showing confusion.

"Yang Jian! I wonder if you've ever heard of him!" Yang Jian said with a slight smile.

"Yang Jian? I've never heard of him. Are you famous?" Sun Wukong asked, slightly taken aback.

"Hahaha! You ignorant monkey, my brother Yang Jian is a renowned powerhouse in the Three Realms, known as the strongest person below the Saint."

During the Investiture of the Gods, Brother Yang Jian once single-handedly stormed into the Heavenly Court, annihilating all the powerful figures there.

"If it weren't for the Dao Ancestor personally intervening, the Jade Emperor Haotian and the Queen Mother would have already died at the hands of Brother Yang Jian!" Nezha stepped forward and said loudly.

Nezha looked at Sun Wukong with a hint of disdain, as if it were a great ignorance for Sun Wukong not to know Yang Jian's name.

When Sun Wukong saw Nezha's expression, he was immediately furious, but when he heard Nezha's words, he was completely shocked.

Sun Wukong, who had just wreaked havoc in Heaven, was well aware of the Heavenly Court's strength. Yang Jian's ability to single-handedly storm into Heaven was already quite remarkable.

Moreover, Sun Wukong knew very well just how terrifying the Jade Emperor Haotian's power was in the Heavenly Court, and there was also the Queen Mother of the West in the Heavenly Court.

Even now, if he were to face the combined forces of the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother of the West again, Sun Wukong believed he would have no chance of winning.

But this Yang Jian in front of us not only managed to break into the Heavenly Court alone, but also almost killed the Jade Emperor Haotian and the Queen Mother of the West.

What kind of power is this? This is a terrifying power that completely surpasses that of the Jade Emperor Haotian and the Queen Mother of the West.

The title of the strongest person below the level of a saint sounds incredibly arrogant, but when applied to Yang Jian, no one would question it.

"Since you once stormed the Heavenly Court, why do you now obey the Jade Emperor?" Sun Wukong asked.

"That means you are ignorant. In the great battle of the Investiture of the Gods, Dao Ancestor Hongjun personally took action. How could Brother Yang Jian be a match for him?"

After the Investiture of the Gods, Yang Jian, the elder brother, was enshrined on the Investiture of the Gods in his physical body, and nominally became a subject of the Heavenly Court.

"Because of the Investiture of the Gods, even though Brother Yang Jian ignores the Jade Emperor Haotian, he still has to obey the Heavenly Court's orders!" Nezha said again.

"Dao Ancestor? So that's how it is! Then let's fight! I, Old Sun, am not afraid of you in the slightest!" Sun Wukong said in a deep voice.

After learning about Yang Jian's background, Sun Wukong showed no fear whatsoever; instead, a fierce fighting spirit rose within him.

For the warlike Sun Wukong, Yang Jian's title of "the strongest person below the sage" alone was enough to make him want to fight Yang Jian.

"Hahaha! You think you can fight my brother Yang Jian? You're just a monkey who's cultivated for hundreds of years. You're far from being good enough for him!"

"Besides, although Brother Yang Jian is to obey the Heavenly Court's orders to come to Flower Fruit Mountain, whether or not he takes action is entirely up to Brother Yang Jian's will!" Nezha said disdainfully.

Even though Nezha already knew the details of Sun Wukong's battle in Heaven, he still didn't take Sun Wukong seriously.

The Heavenly Court is indeed powerful to most beings in the Three Realms, but to Nezha, it's nothing special.

Sun Wukong's ability to act so arrogantly in Heaven was indeed impressive. But with Nezha's current level of cultivation, he didn't think it was anything special.

If he wanted, Nezha could also storm into the Heavenly Court alone and beat the Jade Emperor Haotian so badly that even his own mother wouldn't recognize him.

Nezha was unaware that his words had thoroughly enraged Sun Wukong, who, being proud and arrogant, hated nothing more than being looked down upon.

In the Heavenly Court, Sun Wukong chose to wreak havoc because he was repeatedly deceived and looked down upon by the gods and immortals.

At this moment, Sun Wukong could naturally sense the disdain in Nezha's words, and the anger in his heart was already rising rapidly.

"Aaaah! Where did this wild brat come from, daring to look down on me, Old Sun? Do you dare to fight me?" Sun Wukong roared angrily.

"Fight then, are you afraid of me?" Nezha said disdainfully.

Yang Jian couldn't help but shake his head inwardly. How could he not see that Nezha had actually been deliberately provoking Sun Wukong?

In Yang Jian's view, although Nezha had cultivated for many years and was not young, he still maintained a childlike heart and had a temper like a child.

It's likely that after hearing about Sun Wukong's rampage in Heaven, Nezha was driven by curiosity, which is why he deliberately provoked Sun Wukong upon their first meeting.

Yang Jian was not mistaken; Nezha was indeed deliberately provoking Sun Wukong in order to fight him.

During the years he served as the guardian of humanity, Nezha found himself quite bored because humanity had remained peaceful.

When he had nothing to do, Nezha liked to spar with Yang Jian and Kong Xuan. But after fighting for so many years, both sides knew each other inside and out, which made it a bit too boring.

In the entire Three Realms, there are not many powerful figures that Nezha can take seriously; in fact, there are only a few.

Now, suddenly a Sun Wukong appears, and his strength seems quite good, so Nezha naturally wants to have a good match with Sun Wukong.

Yang Jian did not stop Nezha, because he had a rather favorable impression of Sun Wukong after Sun Wukong's rampage in Heaven.

However, because it involved the Jade Emperor Haotian, and it was during the Great Tribulation of Journey to the West, Yang Jian already had doubts about the Heavenly Court's order.

Let Nezha make the first move to probe Sun Wukong's true strength and see if the Jade Emperor Haotian has any ulterior motives. It's a good choice.

"Hmph! You arrogant fool, now I'll show you what I, Old Sun, am capable of!"

As Sun Wukong spoke, he had already leaped into the heavens, holding the Ruyi Jingu Bang (Golden Cudgel), and struck at Nezha with the force of thunder.

A true expert's skill is immediately apparent! Nezha immediately felt an extremely violent force rushing towards him.

Nezha was not surprised but delighted. He was not afraid of Sun Wukong's great strength at all, but he was afraid that Sun Wukong was useless and had mediocre strength.

"Well done! Monkey, listen to me! Today you have been defeated by your grandpa Nezha!" Nezha said excitedly.

As he spoke, an incredibly powerful force erupted from Nezha's body, and his innate Dao body and sacred embryo were completely condensed.

Faced with the Ruyi Jingu Bang, which was as powerful as thunder, Nezha neither dodged nor avoided it, but directly raised his hand and threw a punch, which hit the Ruyi Jingu Bang, which was full of immense power.

"Ding-dong!"

The sound of metal clashing rang out. Nezha's punch blocked the Ruyi Jingu Bang instantly, and even Sun Wukong could no longer advance an inch.

"Not bad! Not bad! It's a pity that your strength is still a bit lacking!" Nezha looked at Sun Wukong and said disdainfully.

Sun Wukong was slightly startled. No one knew better than Sun Wukong just how terrifying the Ruyi Jingu Bang was.

But this young man in front of him was able to block his Ruyi Jingu Bang with his bare hands—how incredible that was!

"You're nothing special! Come on!" Sun Wukong was naturally not going to admit defeat so easily, and once again raised his Ruyi Jingu Bang and unleashed a full-force attack.

Another loud clang rang out, and Sun Wukong's powerful strike was once again blocked by Nezha's punch.

Although Sun Wukong was surprised, he remained calm and immediately unleashed his Victory Fighting Technique, attacking Nezha like a storm.

In an instant, countless shadowy staffs appeared in the sky, falling towards Nezha like a sudden storm.

This was no mere feint; each strike of the staff was actually an extremely skillful combat technique, embodying the infinite mysteries of the Battle Strategy.

Even a peak Quasi-Saint would likely find it difficult to withstand such a terrifying offensive for long and would probably ultimately be defeated by Sun Wukong.

Faced with the sky full of staff shadows, Nezha remained unmoved, throwing punch after punch, blocking all the staff shadows.

The Ruyi Jingu Bang (the magic staff) is a treasure of great merit, yet it could never harm Nezha, who was unarmed.

With an innate Dao body and sacred embryo, the physical body is incomparably powerful. Even before attaining Dao, it could withstand the ultimate Dao imperial weapon with its bare hands. The strength of its physical body is naturally extraordinary.

Moreover, during the Investiture of the Gods, Nezha had already reached the peak of the Quasi-Saint realm. Now, countless years have passed since that Investiture of the Gods.

Given Nezha's aptitude and the fact that he was cultivating the "Beginningless Sutra," how could his cultivation have made no progress over such a long period of time?

Putting everything else aside, the complete mastery of the innate Dao body and sacred embryo alone would elevate Nezha's strength to an unimaginable level.

"Is that all you've got? That's really disappointing!" Nezha shook his head, unable to hide his disappointment.

This was an utter insult to Sun Wukong. In that instant, Sun Wukong flew into a rage.

A burning fighting spirit soared to the heavens. Sun Wukong went completely mad, his eyes filled with rage. At this moment, he only wanted to completely defeat Nezha.

But precisely because of this, the power of the Victory Fighting Technique gradually reached an incredible level, allowing Sun Wukong's combat strength to rise once again.

When Sun Wukong swung his staff again, even Nezha couldn't help but show a look of shock on his face.

It wasn't that Sun Wukong's blow was particularly terrifying, but rather that Nezha had already sensed that Sun Wukong's strength was steadily increasing.

Each strike was stronger than the last; Sun Wukong seemed to have no limits. Or rather, every swing of his staff was a breakthrough in pushing his own limits.

Even Nezha, at this moment, had to take things seriously, fully unleashing his innate Dao body and holy embryo, and engaged in a fierce battle with Sun Wukong.

"The Battle Victory Technique is indeed an incredible skill!" Houtu Ancestral Witch said softly.

The more she fought, the more frenzied she became; and the more frenzied she became, the stronger she grew. Such an incredible technique was something Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, had never seen before in her life.

"The Battle Strategy is indeed impressive, but what's even more impressive is Sun Wukong. His indomitable will to never easily admit defeat is truly invaluable!"

"If it weren't for this indomitable will, Sun Wukong would never have been able to cultivate the Victory Strike Technique to such a level in such a short time!" Jiang Heng said.

This is precisely what Jiang Heng values ​​in Sun Wukong; that indomitable will is the core of the humanistic power that Jiang Heng has come to understand.

Among the nine forms of the Emperor Fist, apart from the one that opens the heavens and opens the earth, the most powerful is actually the third form of the Emperor Fist, Unyielding.

Given their shared unwavering will and the lingering feelings from their past lives, it's not surprising that Jiang Heng and Sun Wukong held each other in high regard.

At this point, Nezha and Sun Wukong were locked in a fierce battle, fighting from the sky to the ground, and then from the ground to the sea.

Strictly speaking, Nezha's cultivation level was much higher than Sun Wukong's; there was almost a whole level between them.

However, the Fighting Victory Technique's characteristic of becoming stronger with each battle allowed Sun Wukong to unleash combat power beyond his own cultivation level.

This is why Sun Wukong and Nezha fought to a draw. Of course, Nezha's overconfidence also played a part.

"So you still have injuries on your body. They must be from the battle in Heaven!" Nezha said.

Having fought for so long, Nezha and Sun Wukong knew each other well. How could Nezha not see that Sun Wukong was not at his peak at this moment?

In that battle in Heaven, Sun Wukong was indeed seriously injured by the combined forces of the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother of the West.

If it weren't for the power of the Ruyi Jingu Bang (the magic staff), Sun Wukong would probably have been completely suppressed by the Jade Emperor Haotian that time.

At this time, not much time had passed since Sun Wukong's rampage in the Heavenly Court, so it was impossible for Sun Wukong's injuries to have fully recovered.

This would naturally have some impact on Sun Wukong's strength, making it difficult for him to unleash his full power.

"Hmph! Even if I'm seriously injured, I, Old Sun, will still not be afraid of you!" Sun Wukong said in a deep voice.

"Forget it! Since you're seriously injured, there's no point in fighting you. Let's have a proper battle when you've recovered!"

After saying that, Nezha ignored Sun Wukong's anger and stopped attacking. In a flash, he was back beside Yang Jian.

"Don't run away! We haven't decided who's the winner yet, how can we just let it go like this!" Sun Wukong said angrily.

At first, Sun Wukong wanted to teach Nezha a lesson simply because Nezha looked down on him.

But now, just as he was having a great time fighting Nezha, Nezha suddenly said he was not going to fight anymore. How could Sun Wukong be happy about that?

Sun Wukong raised his Ruyi Jingu Bang, preparing to strike Nezha again, but Yang Jian stepped forward and blocked Sun Wukong's path.

"You're quite good! You're qualified to fight me. If you want to fight, then fight me!" Yang Jian said with a smile.

Yang Jian looked at Sun Wukong with admiration in his eyes, not because of Sun Wukong's strength, but because of the intense fighting spirit Sun Wukong had just displayed.

Like Nezha, Yang Jian was also itching for a fight, driven by curiosity. After so many years of silence, how could he not crave a powerful opponent?

Although Sun Wukong's cultivation level was somewhat lower, he was still a decent opponent for Yang Jian.

"Hahaha! No matter who it is, it's all the same to me, Old Sun. So I'll fight you!" Sun Wukong said with surging fighting spirit.

At this moment, Sun Wukong felt that his fighting spirit had reached its limit, and he only wanted to have a good fight. He didn't care who his opponent was.

Raising his Ruyi Jingu Bang high, Sun Wukong unleashed another strike, concentrating all his endless fighting techniques into this single blow.

Sun Wukong's staff strike seemed to have countless variations, yet it also seemed to be just an ordinary staff strike.

Complexity and simplicity, two things that should be contradictory, are perfectly combined in Sun Wukong's staff.

"Good! You certainly haven't disappointed me with such a strike!" Yang Jian said excitedly.

Yang Jian stood still, without moving an inch, but at this moment, twenty-four great worlds slowly appeared above Yang Jian's head.

Compared to the time of the Investiture of the Gods, Yang Jian's Twenty-Four Heavens have clearly become more complete, transforming into twenty-four great worlds.

The world is complete with mountains, lakes, and rivers; it even seems as if living beings are manifesting within it.

It is no exaggeration to say that each of these twenty-four great worlds is a real world, a complete world capable of nurturing life.

Such a complete and vast world possesses terrifying power. And Yang Jian owns a total of twenty-four such worlds.

"This Yang Jian, after so many years of silence, has become so terrifyingly powerful!" The Jade Emperor Haotian said with a look of shock and disbelief.

During the Investiture of the Gods, the Jade Emperor Haotian witnessed Yang Jian's strength and even nearly died at Yang Jian's hands.

The Jade Emperor Haotian was naturally extremely wary of Yang Jian and had considered countless ways to kill him.

But with Jiang Heng protecting Yang Jian, the Jade Emperor Haotian would be grateful if Yang Jian didn't even bother him, let alone find an opportunity to deal with him.

Now, Yang Jian's strength has become even more terrifying, and the Jade Emperor Haotian is naturally more wary of him, yet he cannot do anything to Yang Jian.

"If Yang Jian were to invade the Heavenly Court again, we might not even have a chance to escape!" the Queen Mother of the West said with a gloomy expression.

Yang Jian's strength has improved even further. Even if the Jade Emperor Haotian and the Queen Mother of the West joined forces, with the support of the Heavenly Realm, they would still be no match for Yang Jian.

Even more so, sensing Yang Jian's terrifying power at this moment, the Jade Emperor Haotian and the Queen Mother were horrified to discover that they probably didn't even have a chance to escape.

If the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother of the West were already under such pressure, then the pressure on Sun Wukong, who was currently fighting Yang Jian, was unimaginable.

The Ruyi Jingu Bang, with its thunderous force, originally possessed immense power; once it fell, it would be an earth-shattering, world-shaking strike.

But now, Sun Wukong's Ruyi Jingu Bang is restricted by a powerful force, making it difficult to strike even an inch.

Moreover, under the suppression of the power of the twenty-four great worlds, Sun Wukong was forced to retreat repeatedly.

An incredible force pressed down, and Sun Wukong's forehead was covered in sweat, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered.

"Impossible! I can't possibly not even withstand one of your moves! I don't believe it!" Sun Wukong roared.

Sun Wukong knew that Yang Jian was very strong. After all, even the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother of the West, who joined forces, almost died at Yang Jian's hands.

But Sun Wukong simply couldn't accept that he couldn't even withstand a casual move from Yang Jian.

Even at this moment, Yang Jian was merely standing with his hands behind his back; he couldn't be considered to have actually made a move.

The proud and arrogant Sun Wukong could not accept that he would lose, and even less could he accept that he would lose in such a humiliating way!

With a roar, his indomitable will once again coalesced, transforming into the most fervent fighting spirit, and Sun Wukong pushed the Victory Strike Technique to its limit.

Sun Wukong's strength continued to rise incredibly little by little, from being unable to withstand the twenty-four great worlds to being able to barely hold them off.

In the end, Sun Wukong incredibly blocked those twenty-four great worlds and did not retreat an inch.

"Not bad! I'm quite surprised that you can do this much!" Yang Jian said.

Yang Jian's admiration deepened. He already thought highly of Sun Wukong, but he never expected Sun Wukong to be able to achieve such a level.

Under the suppression of the twenty-four great worlds, even the Jade Emperor Haotian, who had gathered the power of the Heavenly Realm, could not withstand it, but Sun Wukong managed to stop it.

"That's not enough! I, Old Sun, want a battle that is evenly matched with yours!" Sun Wukong roared.

Suddenly, a fierce fighting spirit soared into the sky, and a series of cracking sounds rang out from Sun Wukong's body.

As if something within his body was breaking, multicolored light began to emerge from Sun Wukong's body.

As the five-colored light appeared, Sun Wukong's strength began to rise again, gradually reaching an incredible level.

"Take this from my old Sun Wukong's staff!"

Despite being suppressed by the twenty-four great worlds, Sun Wukong surprisingly took a step forward, raising his Ruyi Jingu Bang (Golden Cudgel) high.

The multicolored light became even more dazzling, completely engulfing Sun Wukong's body and transforming him into a multicolored torrent.

Finally, despite the suppression of twenty-four worlds, Sun Wukong raised his Ruyi Jingu Bang (Golden Cudgel) and unleashed an incredible attack.

"Break free from your own shackles, and from this day forward, fate can no longer bind you!"

(End of this chapter)
