"So now you're trying to sound refined?"
Sumari hated nothing more than people showing off, especially in front of him.
"Hmph! Trash belongs in the trash can, not out here making a fool of itself."
Supreme Treasure had now gone all out as well. Every strike landed as a critical hit, forcing Sumari back step by step.
Sumari had no choice but to activate his genetic engine to analyze Supreme Treasure's attacks.
Having reactivated his Angel Gene, he moved with even greater ease after gaining wings, frantically evading Supreme Treasure's attacks.
Supreme Treasure was originally a jungle fighter built for close combat. From too far away, he had no way to attack for the moment.
More importantly, he could not fly for long periods or fight in the air. Even with the Somersault Cloud, he was nowhere near as agile as the winged angel before him.
The two had fought for nearly half an hour, yet he had only managed to land a few dozen hits.
Of course, Supreme Treasure had underestimated Sumari as well. Sumari possessed tens of thousands of years of combat experience. Even if Supreme Treasure was an agile monkey of the Rift, he was still helpless against Sumari's constant darting and leaping.
Moreover, Sumari's ranged weapon was an obstacle for him.
That incessant buzzing sound irritated him beyond measure.
Then Supreme Treasure came up with a solution: use clones to leap around with his movement technique. Only then could he deal critical damage.
The moment he thought of it, Supreme Treasure immediately put it into practice.
"Beyond the Three Realms, outside the Five Elements—clones, arise..."
In an instant, Supreme Treasure split into dozens of clones. Wielding Crystal Staffs, they smashed down on Sumari from every direction.
Including the decoy standing still in place, there were nearly a hundred Supreme Treasures in total.
"Fuck... Analyze them! Analyze them for me! Why are they all real?"
Because of Supreme Treasure's particular design, his decoy technology could not detect the fakes. It was perfect for diving the backline—you thought he had left, but that was actually his true body.
"Why mourn life? Why fear death?"
Once Supreme Treasure found the right approach, dozens of him swarmed Sumari at once. Sumari was already outmatched with two fists against four hands, let alone a hundred.
Although Supreme Treasure's clones were not particularly powerful, there were simply too many of them. Sumari's Silver Blade could indeed cut through their bodies, but he could not find the real one.
All he could do now was passively take the beating. Every staff strike landed on him, and cracks had already appeared in his angel armor.
A few dozen more attacks, and it would likely shatter completely.
"Just because you can fly, you think you're some god? Get down here, Old Sun!!!"
Supreme Treasure leaped repeatedly, displaying the agile monkey's movement technique to the fullest. He jumped behind Sumari, then raised the enlarged Golden Cudgel and brought it down hard on Sumari's body.
Bang...
Boom...
"Argh... fuck..."
With a thunderous boom, Sumari was knocked out of the air by Supreme Treasure and slammed into the granite slabs below.
A massive granite slab was punched straight through, shattering into pieces and leaving behind a huge crater.
"Pfft... cough, cough, cough..."
Supreme Treasure's final blow had clearly inflicted internal injuries on Sumari. He was only a second-generation warrior now, third-generation at most. There was no way he could withstand Sun Wukong's repeated critical staff strikes.
Though he was not seriously injured yet, he was not far from it. If Supreme Treasure landed another dozen or so critical hits, Sumari would be crippled even if he did not die.
In tens of thousands of years, this was the first time he had ever been beaten so badly.
He had never imagined that Earth would have someone capable of injuring him. Even among angels, aside from the current Keisha or Hexi, no one else could probably do it.
"I thought you were something special. Turns out you're all show."
Supreme Treasure felt that Sumari was far too fragile. Other than being a little more nimble, he was nowhere near as satisfying to fight as Sun Wukong.
After all, the two of them were the kind who could trade damaging staff blows while still enjoying the fight.
"Cough, cough, cough... Wait a second, hold on. We had no grievances in the past and no enmity lately. There's no need to hate me this much, right? No need to go for the kill, right? If you let me go, I'll arrange a short-skirted girl for you in the future—no, ten of them..."
Sumari could only stall for time now. He had secretly contacted Huaye and asked him to provide backup energy.
The man before him seemed to have endless energy, constantly leaping in to attack, leaving him unable to defend against it.
And his clones seemed impossible to counter. There was no Dark Energy signature, so Sumari's genetic system had no way to calculate them.
At first, he thought he had found Supreme Treasure's weakness. In the end, he had simply been overthinking it.
"Heh, stalling for time? You're dreaming."
"Universe Throw..."
Supreme Treasure had no interest in listening to Sumari. He directly swung his staff down at Sumari on the ground.
Clang, hiss...
The Golden Cudgel collided with Sumari's longsword, producing a crisp sound and scattering sparks.
"Oh? You can still fight."
Supreme Treasure carried the Golden Cudgel as he walked step by step toward the retreating Sumari.
He truly had not expected Sumari's body to be so tough, or for him to still be holding on.
Were the so-called super soldiers of this world all this sturdy? So ridiculously durable?
"No, no, no, handsome guy, I really don't know you. At least let me know who you are before beating me up for no reason."
Sumari was genuinely numb. This guy seemed hard to fool and a little abnormal. If he could not stall for time, was he not as good as dead?
Although his Dark Data had already been recorded by Huaye's Heavenly Palace and he could be resurrected, he still did not want to give up this body. He wanted to struggle a little longer.
Even if resurrecting him would give him a new body, it would not be as useful as this body he had used for tens of thousands of years.
Besides, resurrection required enough resources. Given his status with Huaye, Huaye would not care about such things, but dying for no reason still felt awful to anyone.
There was seriously something wrong with this guy. Wasn't he just trying to sleep with him?
Did he have to be this petty?
If he could not have him, then so be it.
He regretted coming here. If he had known, he would not have come. Curiosity really killed the cat—he had failed to steal the chicken and instead lost the rice, getting himself dragged into this mess.
Watching Supreme Treasure close in step by step, he knew he likely could not escape this calamity. The strength of this body was completely incapable of enduring Supreme Treasure's physical attacks.
Then, he stored the Silver Blade in his dark plane and said to Supreme Treasure, "Fine. If you want me dead, then at least let me die knowing why. Huaxia has an old saying: don't become a ghost who dies without understanding."
"Heh, sure. My name is Sun Wukong—Sun Wukong, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven. Now you can go on your way in peace, right?"
Supreme Treasure smiled. Even at death's door, Sumari still wanted to die knowing the truth. Fine, what was the harm in telling him?
After all, it was Sun Wukong who killed him. What did that have to do with Supreme Treasure? If he wanted revenge, he could go find Sun Wukong.
"Fine. Then why are you killing me?"
Sumari truly wanted to know the reason now. Being killed for no reason at all was, more or less, deeply unsettling.
"What, I can't kill you just because I don't like the look of you?"
"Fuck... pfft..." Hearing that, Sumari was so enraged that he suffered internal injuries. Then he said viciously, "Fine, Sun Wukong, Great Sage Equal to Heaven, right? I'll remember you... Even if I die, I'll drag you down with me..."
Seeing that he could not escape, Sumari went all out. He could be resurrected anyway, so he could use his remaining energy to perish together with Supreme Treasure. Even if he could not take him down, he would at least make him suffer.
"Heh, goodbye. No need to see me off..."
Supreme Treasure charged forward directly, then sent Sumari flying with a single swing of his staff. Sumari crashed into the stone wall beside him, while Supreme Treasure executed a perfect maneuver and leapt back.
"Sun Wukong, I'll remember you. I'll definitely be back."
Seeing how agile Supreme Treasure's movements were, Sumari had no time to react, much less grab him. Leaving behind those words, he departed in bitter hatred.
Boom...
A massive explosion rang out. Sumari's little excursion on Earth had come to an end, as had his sinful life on Earth.
Sumari, GG.
"Heh, he actually wanted to perish together with me. Did he not know I also had a shield?"
