After leaving the cave.
Chen Nan saw groups of alien demons appearing in all directions around the island.
Like dark clouds, they were rapidly approaching the island across the swamp.
Although any creature falling into the swamp would sink quickly, the sheer number of alien demons was overwhelming!
Before the front-line alien demons had fully sunk,
the ones behind them stepped on their companions to surge forward.
They were like moths to a flame, one after another, continuously closing the distance to the island.
Seeing this scene,
the macaques bared their teeth, their faces ferocious.
Quinn and the others wore grim expressions.
Facing so many alien demons,
they had no confidence in being able to carve a path of blood.
"Good, they're here."
A cold glint flashed in Chen Nan's eyes.
He tossed the divine stones into the air, then formed seals with his hands.
The divine stones instantly flew in all directions, enveloping the isolated island.
The next moment,
a white celestial light shot up into the sky,
like a dome, covering the island.
This formation was called the God Slaying Formation!
It was an extremely domineering divine-grade killing formation in the God Realm.
Although the number of divine stones was small, and its power was less than one percent of a true God Slaying Formation,
it was more than enough to deal with these alien demons.
As soon as the formation was activated,
some alien demons approached it.
They instantly turned into a mist of blood and disappeared from the face of the earth.
In front of this formation, they didn't even know how they died.
"This formation is too powerful!" Quinn's eyes were filled with disbelief.
Shalan cheered, "I have a feeling that this formation will definitely be able to block the attack of the alien demons."
Chen Nan's methods gave everyone hope of survival.
"Why do you humans always rely on formations?"
A low voice echoed.
The humanoid creature crossed the void, a hint of amusement in its eyes. "Do you think this broken formation can stop me?"
As the words fell,
it pointed a finger from afar.
A ray of celestial light descended from the sky.
When it landed on the formation, the celestial light was actually reflected back.
If the humanoid creature hadn't reacted quickly, it would have likely been pierced through its body.
It looked at Chen Nan with interest. "I admit I underestimated you."
"This formation is indeed quite interesting."
"However,"
"all formations require a foundation stone."
"If I'm not mistaken, your foundation stones are not many, and you seem to have just found them."
"If you had possessed the foundation stones before, you wouldn't have been in such a desperate situation."
"I'd like to see how long your formation can last."
Chen Nan's expression changed.
He never expected this humanoid creature to be so intelligent.
Just as it had said,
the formation he had set up could only last for seven days.
After seven days, it would crumble.
At that time,
the horde of alien demons would surely surge into the island.
This place would inevitably become a living hell.
Even if the monkey tribe had tens of thousands of members,
they would not be able to withstand the frenzied assault of the alien demons.
"I need to go into seclusion!"
"Whether successful or not, wake me up in seven days!"
Chen Nan's current strength was not weak,
but he knew his own capabilities like the back of his hand.
With his current strength, he was nowhere near capable of defeating the humanoid creature before him.
Therefore,
he needed to go into seclusion.
This seclusion was not for the sake of breaking through.
Instead, it was to cultivate an extremely rare technique.
This technique was called Soul Severing Art.
The Soul Severing Art was not aimed at enemies.
Instead, it was aimed at oneself.
Once this technique was mastered,
the cultivator would possess two souls.
It was equivalent to having an extra life.
Of course,
with Chen Nan's strength, he didn't need such a redundant technique.
He was now the master of the Yin and Yang realms.
Unless the Yin and Yang realms were destroyed simultaneously,
no one could kill him.
However,
cultivating this technique also had an advantage.
That was to control the sacred artifact of the alien demon race.
Even if he was backlashed,
he could destroy the secondary soul.
Just as Chen Nan was about to go and cultivate, the Monkey King walked out with a blank expression. "Where did they come from?"
Chen Nan replied, "Their appearance is related to you."
"The monkey that replaced you is of their kind."
He didn't say much,
because he knew that the Monkey King would understand what he meant.
"What can I do?" The Monkey King gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with ferocity.
Chen Nan said, "You can recover your past life's cultivation, ascend to the Ninth Heaven, and just like when you wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace back then, slay the alien demons!"
The Monkey King asked, "You can help me, right?"
Chen Nan grinned, "Of course."
As he spoke,
he formed a seal with one hand.
A rune entered the depths of the Monkey King's mind.
When he was on Earth, Azure Dragon had taught him top-tier techniques from the God Realm.
Among them was the Great Elixir Celestial Art cultivated by Sun Wukong.
This was the internal cultivation technique taught to Sun Wukong by Patriarch Bodhi, and the basis of Sun Wukong's incredible combat power.
In addition to this,
he also imparted the somersault cloud, the seventy-two transformations of Earthly Fiends, the three heads and six arms, and other spells and divine abilities.
Although the Monkey King would find it difficult to master these spells and divine abilities in a short period,
it would still enhance his strength.
After doing all this,
he went directly to the old monkey's cave and sat down cross-legged, beginning to cultivate the Soul Severing Art.
The Soul Severing Art appeared simple,
but it was extremely difficult to cultivate.
No!
To be precise, it was exceptionally painful.
It was like forcibly splitting a person into two.
The degree of pain was imaginable.
"Roar!"
Just as Chen Nan was enduring the pain,
a loud roar suddenly came from outside.
Immediately, the ground shook and the mountains trembled,
as if the cave was about to collapse.
He silently recited the Eight-Nine Arcane Art, trying to calm himself and block out his senses.
Then he got down to business, splitting his soul.
Enduring unprecedented, excruciating pain.
At the same time,
the Monkey King also mastered many of the spells and divine abilities Chen Nan had imparted in a short period.
For example, the Dharma Aspect Heaven and Earth.
There was no choice.
He was Sun Wukong, who had wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace in his past life.
Although he had reincarnated,
he was fortunate enough to conceive a spirit embryo from a spiritual stone.
Spirit embryos were already rare,
let alone with the memories of his past life as a supplement.
For him, this was simply adding wings to a tiger.
"How dare these mere alien races invade our great land!"
"See how this great king annihilates you!"
The Monkey King, ten thousand feet tall, rushed out of the formation and launched a fierce attack on the alien demons.
For a time,
the murky water in the swamp turned into deep red blood.
But,
countless alien demons still charged from all directions, climbing onto him like ants and biting him.
"Competing in numbers?"
"I have never feared anyone!"
A disdainful smile appeared in the Monkey King's eyes. He reached behind his head, grabbed a handful of fur, spread his hand, and blew gently.
As the fur was blown away,
kings of monkeys, each two meters tall, appeared in the world, roaring.
They were so dense that they were countless.
He had used Sun Wukong's divine ability.
The Avatar.
