Great Demon Sun Wukong-Chapter 310 - 299: Retrograde Dissolution and Self-Destruction by Lightning
In Sun Wukong’s heart, he had always harbored guilt towards Ji Meng and Ying Zhao, and of course, it wasn’t limited to just the two of them. There were also others who had aided Sun Wukong in the final battle within the Pangu Realm, such as Zhu Jiuyin, Kunpeng, Bai Ze, and more. Sun Wukong was deeply grateful and guilty towards these individuals.
However, Sun Wukong had never had the opportunity to express his gratitude and repay them, for he had died after that last battle. When he awoke, he found himself in the Netherworld World, reduced to a remnant soul. But when he discovered that Ji Meng and Ying Zhao within the World Within the Golden Hoop Rod were unharmed, he was genuinely delighted.
Due to some special circumstances, Sun Wukong was unable to allow the two of them to leave the World Within the Artifact, but fortunately, they didn’t seem to mind, and Sun Wukong had informed them of his own situation. Thus, Ji Meng and Ying Zhao had been peacefully cultivating within the World Within the Artifact.
Yet, Sun Wukong was constantly planning ways to significantly enhance the strength of the two, since almost all the beings he encountered now were supreme beings above his own level. Their Three Patterns level of strength was simply insignificant in comparison. Sun Wukong later realized that due to their innate limitations, Three Patterns was their limit, and this was with the benefit of the Heaven and Earth Treasures he had supplied to enhance their souls.
If not for that, it would have been difficult for them to even reach the Dao Patterns level. But Sun Wukong was not disheartened and continued to search for ways to improve their cultivation. Finally, after meeting Bai Yi, and sensing the pure Bright Lightning within his white sun, Sun Wukong started to formulate a plan. Discover exclusive tales on novelbuddy
This was also why he risked his body breaking apart to take back the World Suppressing Stele into his body. If he had let the World Suppressing Stele continue to absorb, the Lightning Sun would probably have been drained empty. That would have left Sun Wukong’s plan hopeless.
In the end, fortune favored the bold, and clearly, Sun Wukong had succeeded.
While Sun Wukong was explaining his plan in detail to Ji Meng and Ying Zhao within the World Within the Artifact, the battle in the outside world had entered its final stage. At the moment, out of the forty warriors of the Genesis Netherworld Alliance Army, only one had perished, but six or seven others had suffered heavy injuries. Although they still possessed some combat power, they would not be of much help and might distract their own allies.
Only ten people remained as reinforcements from the Transforming Thunder Ancestral Realm and Myriad Spirits Realm, including Bai Yi, Li, and Luochen. There were two from the Myriad Spirits Realm. These twelve people represented the final force of the Transforming Thunder Ancestral Realm. However, the people of the Transforming Thunder Ancestral Realm were now battle-scarred, Luochen included.
Despite his formidable power, Luochen struggled against the two Domain Lord Level adversaries, Rogue Heart Sword Hero and Jue Luan, with no signs of gaining the upper hand. If it weren’t for their fear of Luochen’s potential to drag them down with him, he would probably have already been defeated. The rest of the people from the Transforming Thunder Ancestral Realm realized that this battle was unequivocally lost, unless some miracle occurred; otherwise, it seemed a hopeless situation.
In fact, when Sun Wukong’s body had started to break apart, the people of the Transforming Thunder Ancestral Realm were already fighting desperately, with their most direct method being the explosion of their Thunder Spirits or even self-detonation. But to their horror, they realized that their remaining Spiritual Power was not enough for self-detonation, and with each of them facing more than three enemies, they were not given any chance to do so.
Despair sank deep into everyone’s hearts. Twelve against thirty-four and now, the Genesis Netherworld Alliance Army was finally leveraging its numerical advantage to the fullest. Victory was merely a matter of time, leaving the people of the Transforming Thunder Ancestral Realm without even the opportunity for a suicide attack to take their enemies with them.
Seeing his comrades’ faces filled with despair and exhaustion, not to mention their wounded bodies, Luochen deeply sighed. He was not reconciled, truly not reconciled. They hadn’t even had the chance to demonstrate their full strength in the trials of the Patrolling Celestial World, and now they faced elimination. And according to the current situation, they wouldn’t even have the chance for a counterattack!
If they didn’t think of something soon, today every person present would perish here, and they would even drag down the five people from the Myriad Spirits Realm. Speaking of the Myriad Spirits Realm, they were even more miserable.
Originally, their orders had been to rendezvous with the people of the Transforming Thunder Ancestral Realm and then relay the message from the leader of the Myriad Spirits Realm’s trial in the Patrolling Celestial World, the Mystic Illusionary Sage. However, upon arriving at the outskirts of the Transforming Thunder Ancestral Realm, they encountered seven disciples of the Transforming Thunder Ancestral Realm and learned that someone had disrupted the Barrier set by the disciples.
This meant someone was attacking the Transforming Thunder Palace by surprise. The five instantly decided to join the seven disciples in racing back to the Transforming Thunder Palace to assist those of the Transforming Thunder Ancestral Realm in tackling the invaders. They figured that those attacking at such a time couldn’t be in great numbers, at most two or even three squads.
If they could help eradicate the enemies for the people of the Transforming Thunder Ancestral Realm, then in subsequent cooperation, the Myriad Spirits Realm would surely gain a certain advantage. While the Myriad Spirits Realm and the Transforming Thunder Ancestral Realm were indeed allies, their relationship wasn’t as strong as between the Genesis Divine Nation and the Netherworld.
The alliance of these two major powers was formed solely on the basis of shared interests. Therefore, it was not as solid as the Genesis Netherworld. Moreover, Mages Xu Miao and Luo Chen, were considered enemies, although they didn’t share a deep-seated hatred. They were always rivals competing for the title of the number one Lightning Technique Master in the Divine Kingdom.
What these five didn’t expect was that those attacking the Transforming Thunder Ancestral Realm weren’t just one or two small teams but as many as forty people. However, by the time they thought about escaping, it was already too late.
Not only was it too late to flee, but their decision also cost all five of them their lives right here. Yes, all five, not just two. After the earlier two had fallen to people from the Netherworld World, under the deterrence of the World Suppressing Stele, the remaining three did not last much longer before they too fell one after another. They didn’t even manage to drag anyone down with them in death.
After dealing with these three people, the Genesis Netherworld Allied Forces gained nine more members. Although they had suffered great losses, they still had an overwhelming number of people. A quarter of an hour later, everyone in the Transforming Thunder Ancestral Realm, apart from Luo Chen, Bai Yi, and Li, was annihilated!
Among the Genesis Netherworld Alliance Army, it was the Flame God whose performance stood out the most. His Exploding Phoenix accompanied every attack with a powerful explosion, especially after Xi Zhao saw that Sun Wukong was unharmed and also landed on the ground, joining forces with the Flame God. Anyone Xi Zhao encased in ice, the Flame God would not hesitate to strike with a Phoenix Wing Slash. Accompanied by a loud explosion, those frozen would often be shattered into countless pieces.
Another highlight of the fray was the Rogue Heart Sword Hero. With his Domain Lord Level strength, even though he was somewhat restrained when facing Luo Chen for fear of a deadly counterstrike, once the Netherworld Five Battle Generals took over, the Sword Hero started to confront those of mere Supreme Peak Level.
Thereupon, the true terror of the Sword Hero was fully revealed. The black Tang Blade in his hand—Demon-breaking Slash—raised streaks of dark blade light with each swing. The Sword Hero’s grasp and application of blade momentum had reached a pinnacle. Initially, he faced off against a single disciple of the Transforming Thunder Ancestral Realm, but as his momentum accumulated and spread, he gradually drew all the surrounding combatants of the Transforming Thunder Ancestral Realm into the fray.
Consequently, he faced eight people from the Transforming Thunder Ancestral Realm alone, yet with his singular strength, he left them no chance to fight back. In the end, he killed five people simultaneously with the move Instant Demon Kill. The remaining three were respectively slain by the Flame God and Qian Shang. Qian Shang, previously mentioned, was a powerful member of the Chaotic Giant Clan from the Genesis Divine Nation, known for his exceptionally strong Attack Power.
"Luo Chen, you too are a longstanding powerhouse," Jue Luan said, stepping forward and addressing Luo Chen after the Genesis Netherworld’s members had killed everyone except for the latter’s three-person group. "Logically, we are all your juniors, but now in this Patrolling Celestial World, notions of seniority don’t matter. However, given the current situation, you surely know what you should do now, right?"
After hearing Jue Luan’s words, Luo Chen turned his head to look at the people of the Genesis Netherworld that had surrounded them. He let out a low sigh, his tone steeped in sorrow, "Has it come to this point, and you still don’t plan on revealing your true identities?"
Jue Luan let out a chuckle, then gently removed the mask he was wearing. Following his action, Luo Chen, Xi Zhao, and the others also took off the masks on their faces. Luo Chen actually did not recognize Xi Zhao, but he did recognize Jue Luan and Ming Wanjie. Looking at them, he realized his prediction was correct; the attackers of the Transforming Thunder Palace indeed were people from the Genesis Divine Kingdom and the Netherworld World.
Having confirmed his suspicions, Luo Chen was not at all surprised; instead, he revealed a trace of a smile. However, he ignored Jue Luan and suddenly turned to Bai Yi and Li, who had been held up by Bai Yi all this time, "It’s over. You two don’t need to leave your lives here too. Go!"

No sooner had Luo Chen finished speaking, than the expressions of Jue Luan, Xi Zhao, and the Rogue Heart Sword Hero all changed at once. The three of them, being the most powerful at the scene, immediately sensed Luo Chen’s intent. As their faces abruptly changed, they simultaneously moved to attack. But before their techniques could be unleashed, a powerful Thunder Light burst forth from Luo Chen’s body, appearing like a purple ring that instantly enveloped everyone around him.
At the same time, Luo Chen swept out with his right sleeve, and an incomparable force struck both Bai Yi and Li, seemingly intending to propel them out of the area with sheer might. However, Bai Yi did not allow himself to be cast away by that force; he exchanged a look with Li, and then both of them released black and white glows from their bodies that merged with Luo Chen’s purple light.
"Damn it, this old man is going to perform Dissolution! Stop him!" Jue Luan bellowed at the top of his lungs. But it was already too late. Thousands of purple rays burst forth from Luo Chen’s body!
To undergo Dissolution is to use a technique even more terrifying than self-destruction, for it ensures that the soul and the body disperse together, lost forever amidst heaven and earth!
