Great Demon Sun Wukong-Chapter 603 - 564: Nine Kirin

However, as the old king's blade swung halfway down, his entire body was sent flying backward. Of course, it wasn't because he was struck by that impostor from the Zang Family, but because Long Tian had grabbed the old king's shoulder and yanked him back, tossing him out. Just as the old king flew backward, a streak of black light suddenly swept across where he had just been standing. If not for Long Tian's timely action of flinging him away, that blow would have certainly inflicted heavy damage. The black shadow missed its strike and abruptly stopped. While in mid-air, the old king turned around and fixed his eyes on it, only to realize that the black light was actually the tail of the impostor from the Hidden Realm.

But that tail made the old king shudder in fear. It was unclear what kind of creature it belonged to, as he had never seen one like it before, though it somewhat looked familiar. The tail was covered with sharp, forearm-length bone spurs, resembling a nine-section whip bristling with barbs. Had he not dodged in time, he would have been done for. As he watched the tail swinging ceaselessly, the old king's sense of familiarity grew stronger.

After throwing the old king aside, Long Tian had already entered the state of Divinity Transformation with Dragon Armor; his whole body was covered in dragon scales, forming the appearance of a set of armor. Qian Shang, who transformed along with Long Tian, was a native from the Myriad Demons Country but a purebred from the Chaotic Giant Clan, who had also cultivated the Chaos Five Decisions. During the attack of the impostor from the Hidden Realm on Fen Yan, Qian Shang had completed the Chaos Giant Transformation. His transformation was similar to Sun Wukong's, with his body only growing to around five meters tall and not turning into a sky-towering giant.

However, the combined attacks of Long Tian and Qian Shang were both dodged by the impostor from the Hidden Realm. But their attacks weren't entirely without effect, at the very least, Fen Yan kept his arm from being bitten off. After evading the attacks of Qian Shang and Long Tian, the impostor from the Hidden Realm still had no intention of fleeing but turned into a shadow and charged at the old king. The old king had been keeping his eyes on the impostor the whole time, and as the impostor suddenly rushed towards him, seeing those eyes filled with a terrifying desire to kill, suddenly, the old king remembered where this familiar feeling came from.

The moment he recognized the familiar sensation, the old king simply plonked down on the ground. This impostor from the Hidden Realm, he was actually the Ancestor Demon! The old king was absolutely certain of this—this was definitely the true form of the Ancestor Demon. Back when he was undergoing trials in the Patrolling Celestial World, the old king, wielding the Shadow Steles, had launched a sneak attack on the Genesis Palace and ultimately released the Ancestor Demon's doppelganger from the steles. Even the doppelganger, with only one-tenth the power of the Ancestor Demon's true form, made the old king flee without fighting. That fear originating deep within his soul made the old king give up all resistance upon facing the Ancestor Demon's true form. It wasn't that the old king was useless; it was the Ancestor Demon's absolute will to kill, that relentless killing intent, which aroused the deepest fears buried in the old king's soul.

However, this blow from the impostor or rather the Ancestor Demon ultimately missed, because Ling Weiyang and Xi Zhao had already arrived. The Ancestor Demon initially was about to smash his fist into the old king who sat paralyzed on the ground, but that punch was blocked by the World Suppressing Stele in Xi Zhao's hand, known as Annihilation One. Upon seeing the stele, the Ancestor Demon exclaimed in shock and then retreated several jumps back, distancing himself to the other side. "Why is Annihilation One in your hands? Wasn't Mo Mietian's Annihilation One World Suppressing Stele taken away?"

Xi Zhao coldly glanced at the Ancestor Demon and said, "Surprised, are you? But you've surprised me too; I really didn't expect that the one impersonating the Hidden Realm is actually you. I truly didn't see that coming, Ancestor Demon!" The Ancestor Demon, looking at Annihilation One now held in Xi Zhao's hands, began to weigh the prospects of victory in this battle but still nodded and said, "I am indeed surprised. It seems you have some connection with those Law Enforcers. Moreover, I must correct you on one point—I am not the Ancestor Demon, I am the Hidden Realm, the Myriad Demon King Zang Family!"

If Xi Zhao hadn't brought out Annihilation One, the Ancestor Demon would have certainly killed all of them as they had not only recognized his identity but also become a threat to him. Such threats naturally needed to be eliminated. But now, he had to carefully assess the situation. For a while, the two sides faced off against each other. Strangely enough, although they should have been fighting desperately, after a brief engagement to test each other's strength, both sides unanimously stopped their attacks, yet it wasn't the kind that suggested they were giving up.

In the heart of the Ancestor Demon, these people standing before him were doomed to die. In fact, he had already started plotting to kill Ling Weiyang a long time ago, the so-called case where the subordinate's achievements overshadowed the master. In Myriad Demons Country, Ling Weiyang's power and prestige were about to surpass his own in the Hidden Realm. Not only that, but the Hidden Realm had expended massive manpower, material resources, and an enormous amount of resources to assist Ling Weiyang in completing the plan of the Five Emperors and Four Spirits. To be honest, how could he willingly hand over all his efforts to Ling Weiyang? In the heart of the Hidden Realm, the Five Emperors and Four Spirits, including Ling Weiyang among the nine, were all prepared for himself. Now, with everything ready, it was time to begin devouring the Five Emperors and Four Spirits, completing his ultimate plan.

As for Xi Zhao and Ling Weiyang, if they wanted to smoothly seize control of Myriad Demons Country, they would need to kill the current Domain Lord. They had already planned this when they were unaware that the Hidden Realm was an imposter; now that they had discovered the Hidden Realm was a fake, this plan was even less of a concern. So in their eyes, the counterfeit Hidden Realm needed to die. Only when Ling Weiyang truly took control of Myriad Demons Country and Xi Zhao truly controlled the Annihilation Demon Nation could their next step in the plan truly unfold.

After facing off for half an hour, a smile that seemed like a great burden had been lifted appeared on Ling Weiyang's face. Looking at the Demon Clan standing atop a piece of broken wall, Ling Weiyang loudly said, "Imposter, surrender! I know what you're waiting for, and now I'm telling you, your reinforcements are gone. Did you think you were the only one secretly cultivating your own forces? Hmph, I've long known you wanted to get rid of me, so I made preparations a long time ago."

Within Myriad Demons Country, the Hidden Realm was honored above all, followed by the Guardian Po Sha of Myriad Demons Country. After that came the Purple Kirin, Ling Weiyang, who was followed by Long Tian. Ling Weiyang was effectively Myriad Demons Country's marshal, while Long Tian was his great general. At the same level as Long Tian were the Five Demon Gods of Myriad Demons Country, which represented the country's strongest combat power. Long Tian was Ling Weiyang's man, while the Five Demon Gods belonged to the Hidden Realm; however, among the Five Demon Gods, Fen Yan for some reason defected to Ling Weiyang, which is why, after the Patrolling Celestial World trial, only Fen Yan survived among the Five Demon Gods.

However, in the shadows, both the Hidden Realm and Ling Weiyang cultivated forces that belonged only to themselves. The reason the Hidden Realm didn't immediately take action after tearing off his facade and testing the strength of Ling Weiyang and Xi Zhao was that he wasn't entirely sure of victory and was waiting for reinforcements, which were the forces he had been cultivating in secret. But what the Hidden Realm didn't expect was that not only did Ling Weiyang also have secret forces, but they had also grown so incredibly strong.

In fact, he had a faint spiritual connection with those people, and just now, the Hidden Realm had felt that all those people had been killed. As expected, right when Ling Weiyang's words ended, nine figures suddenly appeared around the Hidden Realm. When these nine figures appeared, Ling Weiyang's smile grew even brighter. "Respected Domain Lord, allow me to introduce you to my nine brothers. Although they are all still very young, they are definitely the pride of the Kirin Clan—I collectively call them the Nine Kirin! The one standing in front of you is the leader of the Nine Kirin, a genius from the Dream Kirin Clan named Ye Xingchen! To your left is Sha Hun from the Ghost Kirin Clan. And to your right is the strongest of this generation from the Explosive Flame Kirin Clan, named Shi Yan. Forget it, I won't introduce them one by one; saying too much, I fear you might flee without fighting!"

The Nine Kirin were the secret weapon that Ling Weiyang had nearly exhausted all his efforts to create, belonging only to him. Each one, though only at the cultivation of Nine Patterns Supreme, had true combat power that was no less than that of Domain Lord-level powerhouses. Moreover, the greatest characteristic of the Nine Kirin was that the more of them there were, the stronger the combat power they could exert. For instance, if one person was at the peak of Nine Patterns Supreme, then two together would perform at Half-step Domain Lord level, and three might be at Domain Lord level. When all nine were gathered, even Ling Weiyang himself did not know the extent of combat power they could unleash.

"Big brother, it's really not been easy; I thought we'd never have the chance to gather all nine of us in this lifetime. Hehe, today we can finally have a satisfying fight," said Ye Xingchen as he limbered up, speaking to Ling Weiyang. (To be continued.
