Capítulo 1263: Chapter 409: The Sacred and Demon Spirits Coexist
Twelve beams of bloody light shot out from their eyes, intertwining and pressing down on the five people.
Sun Wukong and the others were caught off guard and could only hastily strike back, resisting the beams from their eyes.
Bang.
They flew backward, not wounded but still shaken, with their blood churning.
Sun Wukong and his companions exchanged glances, surprised at what they saw on each other’s faces.
These six guys are very powerful.
“These are six former enemies, six guards of a renowned king among the enemies. They participated in a battle against the Purple Emperor but were all killed by him. Each of them was a force second only to the king,” the Azure Dragon spoke up, revealing their origins.
Sun Wukong, with his Eyes of Golden Flame, stared at the six guards and said, “They are far weaker than they were in life. I’ll hold off two, Azure Dragon, you handle three, and let White Tiger and the rest join forces to kill the remaining one. Then we’ll eliminate them one by one using this method. But remember, we must be quick; I’m worried they can recover.”
“No problem.”
The Azure Dragon nodded.
This is the best arrangement. If they were to engage in direct combat, their side wouldn’t have the certainty of victory, and even if they did win, it would be a brutal battle.
What exactly is in the Purple Emperor’s Tomb is still unclear.
They need to preserve their strength to enter the deepest part of the tomb and figure out the situation.
If the Purple Emperor’s corpse has really turned into demon spirits, they might have to destroy it too.
They took action, with Sun Wukong and the Azure Dragon each blocking two and three respectively.
They raised their mana to the limit, not daring to slacken even a bit.
Thankfully, these guys are already dead, and although they have become demon spirits, they’re not as strong as they were in life.
Otherwise, even with the five of them joining forces, they wouldn’t be able to defeat so many powerful Supremes.
Six forces second only to the Heavenly Emperor, teaming up could make even the Heavenly Emperor retreat.
White Tiger and the others joined forces to kill one of them.
A female being, not of the Human Race, with hair like numerous small dragons that exploded in power, turning into evil dragons spewing wicked energy, attacking White Tiger and the others.
White Tiger and the trio became even stronger, charging forward and attacking with all their might.
In no time, they had torn the opponent apart.
They breathed a sigh of relief, glad that the enemies weren’t as strong as imagined.
Afterward, they charged towards Sun Wukong and took one of his enemies.
In moments, White Tiger and the others killed another.
Four strong fighters now surrounded Sun Wukong’s opponent, taking on one.
The remains of that strong figure were blown apart in an instant.
Then they rushed to the Azure Dragon, using the same method to deal with the three remains he held off.
Finally, the five headed towards the center of the Purple Emperor’s Tomb; for some reason, Sun Wukong and the others’ expressions became grim.
The thought of a tomb for a Creation Realm powerhouse made their hearts tremble.
Logically, such a force should be Immortal and Indestructible, even hard to kill, so how could there be a tomb?
But now it was different; they were already inside the tomb of a Creation Realm powerhouse, and about to see the grave of one.
They arrived at the deepest part, where there lay a seal ahead.
However, the seal was no longer intact, now it could only be described as broken.
A massive wave of evil energy emanated from it, making everyone shiver uncontrollably.
It’s almost certain that the Purple Emperor’s corpse had transformed or an evil presence lurked in his grave.
Seeing the broken seal, the evil presence may possibly have already broken free.
They exchanged glances; the Azure Dragon gritted his teeth and said, “Let’s go in and take a look. Even if it’s the Purple Emperor, after death, he wouldn’t have his living strength, at most comparable to the Heavenly Emperor.”
He referred to the residual power of the corpse, equivalent to the Heavenly Emperor.
Sun Wukong glanced at him, wanting to ask if he was serious.
Even at the Heavenly Emperor’s level, it was enough to suppress them.
If Sun Wukong had breached the Supreme Realm, he wouldn’t need to fear. He and the Azure Dragon, who were second only to the Heavenly Emperor, could face not just a true Heavenly Emperor but would dare to fight.
But now it wasn’t feasible; his power was still a bit lacking.
As for White Tiger and the others, although they were Supreme, they were relatively weaker, posing less threat to a Heavenly Emperor.
Even if they teamed up, unless it was a mutually destructive approach, it would be hard to cause significant harm to the Heavenly Emperor.
“Well, if the Purple Emperor’s corpse has become a demon spirit, we should withdraw. Then Old Sun can bring someone to destroy him,”
Sun Wukong said.
The Azure Dragon and the others nodded, knowing Sun Wukong had the assurance.
Even a Heavenly Emperor can now be slain by the Heavenly Court.
Not to mention Sun Wukong and Lord Taishang were close friends.
The number of people he can summon is vast, and eliminating a Heavenly Emperor isn’t really a difficult task.
The five entered the seal together, and as soon as they stepped inside, everything before them was completely different from what they imagined.
It didn’t look like a great tomb; there was no coffin but rather like another world.
The center of the tomb was actually a small world.
Here were the Sun and Moon, stars, mountains, rivers, green grass, and flowers blooming everywhere.
The only difference was the lack of living animals, it was filled only with plants.
Sun Wukong and the others were quite surprised, looking around at the surroundings.
Such a different scenario from what they imagined made them even more wary.
Not far from them stood a figure in black armor, holding a longsword naturally at his side, with two kinds of aura circulating around him.
Half sacred, half teeming with evil energy.
“Purple Emperor.”
The Azure Dragon changed color, recognizing the person’s identity.
That was the Purple Emperor, even though he had his back to them, the Azure Dragon still recognized him.
Sun Wukong glanced at the Azure Dragon, his mind now guessing.
The Azure Dragon is likely a powerhouse who survived from the previous world; otherwise, he wouldn’t know the Purple Emperor.
The Purple Emperor stood with his back to Sun Wukong and the others, not speaking but naturally exuding an aura of majesty, making one dare not to underestimate in the least.
“Is he alive?”
White Tiger asked, a bit of worry on her face.
No one could speak to it; the state of the Purple Emperor was very strange.
His body was half sacred, vibrant with life, half teeming with evil, filled with the aura of death.
The two auras intertwined yet distinct, constantly clashing.
“Why not try and find out?”
Sun Wukong said, taking action directly.
Practically not giving Azure Dragon the time to stop, he saw Sun Wukong swinging his Jingu Bang at the Purple Emperor’s head.
At this moment, the Purple Emperor turned, revealing an extremely handsome face.
One of his eyes was filled with divine light, golden, with a supreme aura bursting from it, exuding ultimate majesty.
The other eye was intriguing, pitch black, like a deep universe, fathomless.
Divine and demonic presence coexisted, making the Purple Emperor appear incredibly terrifying.
Facing Sun Wukong’s strike, the Purple Emperor moved, his war sword swung upward.
Clang.
With a loud bang, Sun Wukong flew backward.
