Great Demon Sun Wukong-Chapter 519 - 501: Zijing of the Dominion of Soil
Since Wu Zhiqi still exists, does that mean Sun Wukong might not actually be dead? But what about the Flame God? Wasn't it said that the Flame God had attained the Phoenix Immortal Body? Then why can I also not feel the Flame God's presence anymore? Ye Zi's mind was teetering on the brink of madness with these questions. Right now, what he wanted most was to rush over to Sun Wukong to check on him and the Flame God. Furthermore, the fate of the eight, including Rogue Heart Sword Hero, was unknown, and aside from Ye Zi in perfect condition, it could be said that everyone else was either dead or injured.
What drove Ye Zi to the edge of despair was that he couldn't make the slightest move. Dao Zhun's life now hung by a thread that he was maintaining; to even think of leaving was out of the question, not to mention that if his Spiritual Power were to falter now, Dao Zhun would surely die on the spot. It was precisely because of this that Ye Zi felt so desperate, bearing the task of healing in the team; yet, he could only watch as his comrades fell one by one protecting him, unable to lend aid – a torment that tore at his soul.
Tears streamed from his eyes, and Ye Zi wanted to cry out loud, but he couldn't. He also wanted to say something, but found that his own lips were already bitten through, bleeding profusely at any attempt to speak. Ye Zi knew very well that Wu Zhiqi, the Nine Decisions Vajra Ape, might already be their last combat power, and although the opponent Xi Zhao, just like the Flame God, suddenly died for reasons unknown, there was still Ling Weiyang.
Although Ling Weiyang was merely a doppelganger, he was not a figure to be underestimated, as Wu Zhiqi had to sacrifice an arm to get rid of him after a death match. Slowly turning his head, Ye Zi saw Ling Weiyang approaching with a sinister smile. Now, Ye Zi had three choices: first, to immediately give up on sustaining Dao Zhun's life force and instead channel all of his own life force to Wu Zhiqi, who still stood tall but with a pool of blood at his feet, so Wu Zhiqi could contend against Ling Weiyang.
The second choice was to abandon Dao Zhun and Wu Zhiqi and instead head to Sun Wukong and the Flame God to see if Sun Wukong could be saved, since Wu Zhiqi was still alive, which meant Sun Wukong must be alive, albeit with a life force so faint that he could not sense it. The third option was to abandon everyone and flee immediately – of course, taking his brother Ye Wu with him. Previously, to enable Hidden Mountain to combat the Annihilation Nine Headed Serpent, Ye Wu had attached himself to Hidden Mountain as fire, but now he too was injured by the Thunder Fire Scorching Flame Cannon attack, though thankfully not fatally.
Moreover, Ye Zi knew very well that if he turned and fled now, he could definitely save his own life. To Ling Weiyang, Ye Zi's life and death were not of great importance; compared to catching Ye Zi, actually killing everyone present was far more crucial. As long as they all died, Ye Zi's escape wouldn't matter; as a healer with low attack power, his chances of revenge later were slim.
Honestly, Ye Zi hesitated, but the hesitation was not about whether to flee, it was whether to use his Ultimate Move. If used, most of those present would immediately regain their full strength, but it would mean certain death for him and Ye Wu. The prospect of his own death didn't scare Ye Zi, but he didn't want Ye Wu to be dragged into it as well; his brother had already sacrificed too much for him.
When they were a pair of twin parasol trees, Ye Wu had once advised him not to attempt to break through to that realm, as they both knew it was taboo. But Ye Zi didn't listen – he was filled with confidence in himself, believing that if only he reached that level, he would become a peer of those mighty beings. What could they do to him then?
So, Ye Zi stubbornly persisted and reached the peak, but in the process attracted the attention of the Law Enforcers, prompting the Nine Heavens Pure Thunder to seek to destroy him in a single strike. At that moment, Ye Wu stepped forward, severing their link and concentrating most of their energy in himself, allowing the Nine Heavens Pure Thunder to strike only him, allowing Ye Zi to escape the catastrophe as he lost most of his power.
Ye Wu died on the spot after being struck by the Nine Heavens Pure Thunder. Fortunately, Ye Zi immediately expelled his Primordial Pearl, preventing Ye Wu's soul from vanishing. Later, Ye Zi sought to increase his strength to resurrect Ye Wu, but having lost most of his energy, even reaching the Domain Lord level was only in name. Aside from robust life force and recovery abilities, Ye Zi was otherwise useless. And the energy forcibly taken by Ye Wu was actually that of the Heaven and Earth Laws.
The Nine Patterns Supreme possessed the power of Nine Cosmic Laws, but Ye Zi only had two top-level Laws, those of Life and Recovery. After enduring untold hardships, Ye Wu had finally been resurrected. How could Ye Zi bear to let Ye Wu, who had just been brought back to life, die like this? Aside from that, Ye Zi couldn't think of any other way to survive. Even if he gave up Dao Zhun, he would definitely not be a match for Ling Weiyang. At best, he could only delay the inevitable for a little longer. But under the current circumstances, even a slight delay would be futile.
Turning his head to look at the Nine Decisions Vajra Ape Wu Zhiqi, who stood unyielding before him, Ye Zi saw that although Wu Zhiqi had not died, his life force was rapidly depleting, and his chest and lungs were probably completely shattered. Turning again to look at Dao Zhun lying on the ground, Ye Zi's voice was raspier than ever, "Old man, I'm sorry." Having said that, Ye Zi's eyes suddenly turned firm and crazed. Just as he was about to use the ultimate move that he had never utilized before, a hand suddenly rested on Ye Zi's shoulder, and the life force he had just gathered instantly condensed and then returned to calm.
The expression on Ye Zi's face was unclear, a mix of fear or something else. Was fate so cruel as to deny him even a chance to fight to the death? Unfortunately, that was the reality. Netherworld World's Underworld Ming Wanjie, as Xi Zhao once said, if Ming Wanjie burst out with his full strength, even Xi Zhao might not be his match. Yet such a powerful opponent died before he could even unleash a powerful move, his eyes unshut in death, at the hands of Zhibei.
And as for He Tu of the Myriad Gods Hall, a Domain Lord Level powerhouse who did not explode with the strength he should have had and subsequently died without even uttering last words. And the Genesis Divine Nation, whether it was Jue Luan or Meng Lan, seemed to have not displayed much combat power, leading to the elimination of the Genesis Divine Nation, even losing their Divine Kingdom qualification. How can everything in the world, which changes unpredictably, go exactly as one wishes?

Just as Ye Zi was feeling utterly defeated, a cool female voice suddenly sounded from behind him, "Don't let your guard down, continue to heal. Sun Wukong, the Night Flame God, will not die; rest assured. And Xi Zhao won't die either. Do your utmost to save Elder Dao Zhun's life." Ye Zi didn't recognize this voice; he was sure he had never heard it before, which meant he didn't know this person.
But when Ye Zi turned to look, there was no one behind him. Yet, Ye Zi wasn't foolish; since this person had stopped him from using his move without subsequently harming him, it indicated that this individual was not an enemy at least. With that in mind, he decided to take a bet on this stranger. Even if he bet wrong, he still had a chance to make amends.
Turning back, Ye Zi cast his gaze towards the distant Flame God and Sun Wukong lying on the ground. The sight startled him into exclaiming because he saw Sun Wukong slowly rise into the air with the Flame God and fly towards him. Who was this woman? How did she know that Sun Wukong and Flame God were alright? But after watching for a while, Ye Zi noticed something wrong—their flying posture was far too strange. Normally, one would never fly in such an odd posture.
Even if Sun Wukong and Flame God were too injured to maintain a normal posture, it shouldn't result in this pose. Such a pose seemed as if... as if someone was carrying them from below.
Just then, Ling Weiyang's angry yell once again drew the Flame God's attention.
"I thought it was someone important, but it's just a princess of a fallen nation. Do you think you can turn the tide? I consider the entire Dominion of Soil a trifle in the palm of my hand. A mere guardian of a fallen nation, hmph."
