691: Chapter 251: Ancient Demon of Zhongnan Mountain_6 691: Chapter 251: Ancient Demon of Zhongnan Mountain_6 The most terrifying thing was that the Daoist Ancestor was about to take action, and by then, it would be impossible for them to revive the Supreme Ancestral Demon.
As a flash of light sparked in Sun Wukong’s eyes, he asked with a chuckle, “Do you want revenge?”
“Of course I do.”
Zhong Kui replied immediately.
“Lead Old Sun to that place, I’ll destroy that altar, kill those Ancient Demons, and avenge you.”
“Alright.”
Zhong Kui did not hesitate at all.
Although his injuries were not completely healed, they had recovered by seventy to eighty percent.
If it came to a fight, it shouldn’t be a big problem.
What’s more, with the Great Sage Equalling Heaven by his side, who could kill even the Great Heavenly Venerate, he probably wouldn’t need to take action himself.
Zhong Kui had the Five Ghosts guard his home, then took Sun Wukong straight to the place where he had discovered the Ancient Demons.
As Sun Wukong surveyed the area, there was nothing to see.
Clearly, there were tricks at play here, even his Eyes of Golden Flame could not see through them.
This sent a chill through Sun Wukong’s heart, knowing that whoever had concealed this place was incredibly powerful, definitely not weaker than himself.
Otherwise, he would have been able to see through it.
“Where is it?”
Sun Wukong inquired.
Zhong Kui led Sun Wukong to the side of a large rock.
Pointing at the rock, he said, “Initially, when I discovered these Ancient Demons, it was said they emerged from here, this rock is the entrance.”
Sun Wukong glanced at it, noting it was just an ordinary rock.
He thought for a moment, then slapped it with his hand.
Pfft.
The rock shattered into pieces, yet no portal appeared.
Zhong Kui was taken aback, somewhat flustered.
Was this not the place?
Had he remembered incorrectly, or what was the matter?
“Great Saint…”
Zhong Kui began to explain,
but before he could continue, Sun Wukong waved his hand, signaling him to be silent.
Suddenly, Sun Wukong
Zhong Kui quickly shut his mouth, realizing that Sun Wukong must have discovered something.
“Actually, finding these entrances is very simple.
Even if it is very well hidden, once the general location is confirmed, one can find the entrance by sensing the Dao of Heaven and Earth,” Sun Wukong explained seriously as he sensed the surroundings.
Zhong Kui looked on with admiration.
The Great Saint, indeed, had many methods.
After a while, Sun Wukong opened his eyes.
“Actually, sometimes this method might not work,” he remarked.
Zhong Kui immediately stifled the words ‘Great Saint, you’re awesome’ that were about to escape his lips.
“Ahem.”
Sun Wukong was also a bit embarrassed.
He said with a smile, “Actually, locating the lair of demons is a technical job.
Please step aside a bit, and stay further away.”
Zhong Kui was excited, about to witness the Great Saint’s techniques.
He was curious about what methods the Great Saint would employ to reveal the entrance.
“Watch closely,”
Sun Wukong reminded Zhong Kui.
Zhong Kui immediately widened his eyes, staring intently at Sun Wukong’s movements with admiration.
He was earnestly learning, wanting to master the Great Sage Equalling Heaven’s method of finding demon lairs.
At that moment, Sun Wukong took action.
He pulled out the Jingu Bang and hammered it down towards the ground.
“Boom.”
The spot where they had been standing was shattered by the strike.
A deep hole appeared in front of them.
The noise alarmed the immortals and Taoists cultivating on Zhongnan Mountain.
One after another, immortals leapt into the air and flew towards them.
They were furious
Someone had dared to attack the preeminent sacred mountain of the Daoist Sect, which was utterly intolerable.
“Who dares cause trouble on Zhongnan Mountain?”
“Where did this demon come from that dares to desecrate Zhongnan Mountain.”
“You audacious wreck, state your name.”
The furious roars echoed, and all the high-ranking members of the Daoist Sect were enraged.
Zhongnan Mountain held a unique position within the Daoist Sect, and anyone who dared to lay hands on it was clearly provoking all of Daoism under heaven.
Zhong Kui broke out in a cold sweat; he hadn’t expected Sun Wukong’s approach to be direct action.
Sensing the fury of these Daoist immortals, he grew nervous.
When they arrived, would they tear both of them apart?
“I, Sun Wukong.”
Sun Wukong said indifferently.
Suddenly, thousands of figures halted abruptly.
The cursing also stopped.
“Sorry to disturb, Great Saint, please continue.”
“I must have been dreaming to speak such nonsense, Great Saint, I was wrong just now, and I’ll go back and reflect behind closed doors.”
“Great Saint, please forgive me, I didn’t mean to, sob, I’m scared.”
…
Thousands of Daoist immortals bolted back instantly, disappearing from sight.
Zhong Kui was dumbfounded; it was then that he realized he had underestimated the deterrent power of the Great Sage Equalling Heaven.
Thousands of immortals fled, none of them worthy men.
Daoist immortals, such a lack of spirit.
Of course, it couldn’t really be blamed on them; Sun Wukong’s reputation was simply too formidable.
“Let’s go down and take a look.”
Looking into the deep cave entrance, Sun Wukong spoke.
Zhong Kui followed Sun Wukong down.
He too wanted to know what this so-called altar for resurrecting the Supreme Ancestral Demon looked like.
The two descended for a long time before finally reaching the deepest part.
What puzzled Sun Wukong and him was that there was nothing here, utterly empty.
“Something’s wrong, Great Saint, wasn’t there supposed to be an altar here?”
Zhong Kui asked.
He could sense the residue of the Ancient Demon Qi here.
But there was nothing in sight now.
What was going on?
Sun Wukong pondered for a moment; that top-tier Great Heavenly Venerate would certainly not lie.
At that critical moment, he blurted out those words to save his life, without having time to think too much.
Moreover, Sun Wukong was watching the other’s mental fluctuations; if he had lied, he would have seen through it.
In other words, even the Great Heavenly Venerate among the Ancient Demons had been deceived.
The supposed altar wasn’t here at all but elsewhere.
Zhongnan Mountain was merely a facade.
Realizing this, Sun Wukong took a deep breath.
The enemy was extremely cunning; this was the first time he had encountered such an opponent.
To deceive even their own kind, even up to the level of top-tier Great Heavenly Venerate, keeping everyone in the dark.
From this alone, one could see how cautious the enemy was.
Finding the location of the altar wouldn’t be easy.
At the very least, they would need to capture a Sub-Paramount level warrior to possibly succeed.
Realizing this, Sun Wukong took another deep breath.
It seemed they had to start with the strong members among the Ancient Demons.
“Great Saint, what is going on here?”
Zhong Kui asked.
He had originally thought that upon entering, he would encounter a host of Ancient Demons.
Zhong Kui was prepared; upon seeing the Ancient Demons, he would rush out immediately to summon the Daoist immortals from earlier,
especially as there had been disturbances here, any further anomalies would surely bring the Daoist immortals rushing over.
Moreover, if they knew that Ancient Demons were hiding here, those people would definitely be furious and likely to take action.
Sun Wukong shook his head, indicating that he didn’t know either.
He said gravely, “Let’s not worry about this for now; we should leave for the time being since we can’t find any trace of the Ancient Demons right now.”
Hearing Sun Wukong’s words, Zhong Kui nodded; they could only do so for now.
