Chapter Thirty-Nine: What Did You Say? I Didn't Hear You Clearly!

This made Marshal Tian Peng's expression somewhat gloomy.

Just as he was about to order the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals to attack Flower-Fruit Mountain,

a loud voice rang out there.

"Stop..."

Immediately afterward, a monkey wearing armor appeared before Marshal Tian Peng, with several monkey demons behind him.

"Who are you?" Marshal Tian Peng looked down at the monkey below.

It was obvious that this monkey was connected to Sun Wukong. Otherwise, he would not have come out at a time like this.

"I am the Great King's Left Great General. The Great King is currently in seclusion, so I have come to be your opponent this time," the Left Great General said loudly.

"You're going to be my opponent?" Marshal Tian Peng laughed. "Although you are Sun Wukong's Left Great General, your strength is far from enough. If you don't want to die, go call Sun Wukong over."

"Impossible." The Left Great General shook his head and refused.

Sun Wukong held a very lofty position in the hearts of these monkey demons.

Earlier, Sun Wukong had told them that he was currently in seclusion. Without his orders, they were not to let anyone disturb him.

The monkey demons here were simply following those instructions.

"Marshal, this monkey demon isn't qualified to fight you. Leave him to me." Juling Shen stepped forward and spoke loudly.

"Fine. Juling Shen, I'll leave him to you." Marshal Tian Peng nodded.

"Thank you, Marshal." Juling Shen stared at the monkey demon and roared, "A mere monkey demon, yet you dare to be so presumptuous. Watch how I, Juling Shen, suppress you!"

Chapter Thirty-Nine: What Did You Say? I Didn't Hear You Clearly!

As soon as Juling Shen finished speaking,

his massive body moved, and the Xuanhua Axe in his hand suddenly hacked down toward the monkey demon below.

As Li Jing's former vanguard general, Juling Shen's strength was by no means ordinary.

To stand out among countless Heavenly Soldiers, Juling Shen had spent an innumerable amount of time cultivating.

Although he did not possess the strength of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, he still possessed the power of a Mysterious Immortal.

A mere ordinary monkey demon from Flower-Fruit Mountain was truly easy pickings for Juling Shen.

"This power..." The Left Great General's expression changed drastically.

Although Sun Wukong's existence had allowed his strength to transcend that of an ordinary monkey,

among the true demon race, his strength was nothing special.

The strength of demons depended most on their bloodlines.

Take Bull Demon King and Peng Demon King, for example. They had accumulated power over countless years and possessed ancient bloodlines, which was why they had such powerful strength today.

A demon like Sun Wukong was an extreme anomaly.

Under the guidance of Patriarch Bodhi, he had gone from an ordinary life-form to a Grand Unity Golden Immortal in a short time.

Perhaps there was only one Sun Wukong in this entire world.

Finding another one would be nearly impossible.

After all, not every demon could get Patriarch Bodhi to teach them. Not to mention, Sun Wukong possessed the Power of Merit and Destiny from the Five-Colored Stone, and had also been chosen by the Two Sages of the West to become one of the protagonists of the calamity.

That was why Sun Wukong's strength had advanced by leaps and bounds in such a short time.

It was precisely because of this that Sun Wukong's cultivation had left behind certain problems.

Such rapid improvement had resulted in an unstable foundation, while also prematurely exhausting his future potential.

Without a major change, the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm would be Sun Wukong's limit.

Just like the Sun Wukong of history.

Even after eating so many pills in the Palace of Lingering Delights, he had not made much of a breakthrough in his true strength.

Otherwise, if it had been anyone else who swallowed so many pills, their strength would not have increased by only that little.

But after Sun Wukong entered the General Store, his fate changed because of it.

Whether it was obtaining the Thirty-Six Heavenly Transformations, acquiring the Chaos Demon Ape Bloodline, or gaining the Power of Merit,

all of it had repaired and enhanced his foundation while changing his fate.

But those matters could be set aside for now.

Feeling Juling Shen's power, the monkey Left Great General understood that his own strength was nowhere near a match for this celestial Immortal and God.

If the other party's axe struck him, he would probably die.

But as an underling of the Great Sage, Equal to Heaven, he would not beg for mercy even when facing death.

"Monkey demon, I advise you to quickly tell me where Sun Wukong is. Perhaps I'll spare you." Juling Shen also noticed the change in the monkey demon's expression and laughed arrogantly.

Juling Shen was absolutely confident that he could defeat the monkey demon before him.

"Don't even think about it." The Left Great General snorted. "Even if I die, I won't tell you where our Great King is."

"Very well. Then go die." A cold light flashed in Juling Shen's eyes.

As one of Li Jing's generals, Juling Shen had no idea how many demons had died by his hand.

Among them were many powerful demons.

The monkey demon before him was merely an insignificant one.

Killing him was no big deal.

By then, their tens of thousands of Heavenly Soldiers did not believe they would be unable to find Sun Wukong anywhere on Flower-Fruit Mountain.

"Rumble..."

The Xuanhua Axe descended with the power to shatter everything.

"Kill..."

The monkey demon also swung the iron staff in his hand.

As the Left Great General under Sun Wukong, this monkey demon had imitated him and used a weapon resembling the As-You-Will Golden-Bound Cudgel.

However, the iron staff in the Left Great General's hand could only be considered an ordinary spirit treasure.

It was completely incomparable to the As-You-Will Golden-Bound Cudgel.

"Clang..."

The two weapons struck each other, and an astonishing sound spread across the heavens and earth.

The Left Great General's face turned deathly pale. Cracks instantly tore open across both his arms, spilling blood everywhere.

The spirit-treasure iron staff in his hand was also sent flying in an instant.

Great King, I'm going on ahead. Facing the attack so close before him, the Left Great General could not help but let out a low cry in his heart.

He could no longer continue following his Great King.

Suddenly.

At that moment, the heavens and earth seemed to come to a halt.

Before the Xuanhua Axe, a golden iron staff appeared above it.

"What is this..."

Juling Shen was startled, but the golden staff had already struck his axe.

"Clang..."

A terrifying sound rang out, and Juling Shen's eyes widened. "How is this possible?"

"Crack, crack..."

The axe in Juling Shen's hand continuously shattered. His spirit treasure was actually unable to withstand the attack of that golden staff.

At the same time, what horrified Juling Shen even more was...

An unstoppable force slammed into his body.

"Pfft, pfft, pfft..."

Mouthful after mouthful of blood sprayed from Juling Shen's mouth. His body transformed into a streak of light and was sent hurtling backward.

Facing this terrifying force, Juling Shen felt his internal organs continuously breaking apart.

If he had been a mortal, he would have died from that strike long ago.

Even as an Immortal and God, Juling Shen could feel that he had suffered severe injuries.

"Who is it..."

The Four Heavenly Kings, Nezha the Third Prince, and the others narrowed their eyes.

To defeat Juling Shen with a single strike, the other party's strength was formidable.

"Sun Wukong." Marshal Tian Peng narrowed his eyes.
