Rebirth in Journey to the West: Sun Wukong

Sun Wukong swung the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod, about to strike the Saint Emperor, but suddenly withdrew and retreated.

Just as he withdrew, countless spear lights suddenly burst out from his original position, violently shaking the void.

"He actually dodged it!"

The Saint Emperor's face showed extreme shock. This was his ultimate move, the Void Spear Stab — silent, formless, and traceless. Even those in the Saint Divine Realm find it hard to detect and avoid.

Yet Sun Wukong not only detected it, but detected it amidst intense battle.

This level of insight is terrifying, isn't it?

"You think you can trick the Great Sage Equal to Heaven? You're not qualified!"

Sun Wukong sneered. With the Void-Breaking Moon Eyes, the Saint Emperor's tricks were useless against him!

"You brat, don't get cocky too soon!"

The Saint Emperor's face was shadowed with gloom. The long spear in his hand was surrounded by an invisible, colorless glow. In this stalemate, if it dragged on, his prestigious reputation would dissipate.

He could not allow Sun Wukong to be so arrogant; he must eliminate him immediately!

The Saint Emperor's eyes gleamed. Sun Wukong could tell he was contemplating devious, sinister schemes.

"Trying to play tricks in front of the Great Sage? Hmph! You're underestimating me too much! You think you're the only one who can play dirty?"

A cold light flashed in Sun Wukong's eyes, and the next moment, he charged towards the Saint Emperor.

"Frenzied Monkey Staff Technique!"

The wild staff technique bombarded all over the Saint Emperor, the momentum much stronger than before.

"This guy, was he holding back earlier?"

The Saint Emperor's heart skipped a beat, becoming more resolved to kill Sun Wukong. The mysterious power contained within his spear became even more apparent.

"Void Destruction Spear!"

Finally, the Saint Emperor unleashed his long-prepared ultimate move, thrusting his spear at Sun Wukong.

Behind him, a dark spacetime black hole suddenly appeared, and the next moment, a black spear condensed from the power of space-time shot out, following the Saint Emperor's spear towards Sun Wukong.

"You brat, let's see how you handle this move!"

The piercing sharpness made Sun Wukong's face twinge in pain. His brows furrowed deeply.

The spear move formed from the power of space-time was indeed formidable, unavoidable, and had to be countered head-on!

Sun Wukong's eyes flicked, and a shadow flew out from behind him, merging into the void. His body exuded an astonishing aura.

"Heaven Punisher!"

The Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod in his hand emitted a purple-golden light. The purple-golden Heavenly Saint Fire gathered at the rod's end, crashing forcefully against the Void Destruction Spear.

Boom!

The tip of the rod and the spear clashed, causing violent tremors throughout the void, sending both Sun Wukong and the Saint Emperor flying, their bodies constantly smashing into asteroids, shattering them one by one.

"Such formidable strength!"

Sun Wukong felt a sweetness in his chest, with a surge of blood reaching his throat, but he forcibly swallowed it back down.

The Saint Emperor was in no better shape, his face instantly pale, eyes filled with shock and anger towards Sun Wukong.

This was his ultimate move, the Void Destruction Spear, yet Sun Wukong managed to block it!

The power contained in Sun Wukong's attack was entirely on par with the Void Destruction Spear, and it required no energy accumulation!

The Saint Emperor's Void Destruction Spear took a full five seconds to gather energy before release, yet it was evenly matched with Sun Wukong's instant Heaven Punisher.

Which was superior? The Saint Emperor knew full well!

But precisely because of this, the Saint Emperor became even more wary of Sun Wukong.

"Does this brat's talent surpass mine? No! I am the foremost prodigy of all ages. How could a more gifted person exist in this world?"

"I don't acknowledge it! I will never acknowledge it!"

The Saint Emperor shouted maniacally, blue veins pulsing on his forehead,

"Don't be too complacent! Here, within the Destiny Star Cloud, I can absorb the power of these stars. Even if it costs me, I can outlast you!"

"Sun Wukong, you're dead today!"

Seeing the Saint Emperor's exasperated state, Sun Wukong chuckled, "As expected, the Great Sage's guess was right. You had a scheme in choosing this place as the battlefield!"

"So what if I did? Victory determines right and wrong! Even if you are talented, dying here today means outsiders will never know the outcome of this battle."

The Saint Emperor gritted his teeth with a grim smile, his combat power matched Sun Wukong's evenly. There was no quick resolution.

In time, Sun Wukong would definitely not be his match!

He could absorb the power of these stars within the Destiny Star Cloud!

"Oh, are you so sure?"

Sun Wukong chuckled, "You're happy too early! Haven't you considered, the Great Sage can absorb the power here too?"

"What?"

The Saint Emperor's pupils contracted sharply, "You can also absorb the star cloud power? How is that possible?"

"Why not? You can absorb it, so why can't the Great Sage?"

Sun Wukong snorted, "Otherwise, why do you think the Great Sage entered here to fight you? Arrogant fool!"

"Bastard! Bastard! You're bluffing! I don't believe it! I absolutely don't believe it!"

The Saint Emperor screamed maniacally, swinging his spear again towards Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong, with a sneer, wielded the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod, clashing fiercely with the Saint Emperor once more.

Yet his eyes darted to and fro, as if searching for something.

"What are you looking at?"

The Saint Emperor glanced behind in panic but saw nothing.

"Damn it! You're bluffing! I won't let you go... ah!"

Before he finished speaking, a silver rod unexpectedly emerged from the void behind him, piercing through his body.

Pfft!

The Saint Emperor coughed up a mouthful of blood, looking incredulously at the silver rod protruding from his chest, turning his head tremblingly.

Far behind him, another Sun Wukong stood with a cold smile, gripping the silver rod that had pierced through his chest.

"You... when did you... cough, cough!"

Blood gushed from the Saint Emperor's mouth. It wasn't just the chest wound; the internal meridians had all been shattered by the destructive power of Sun Wukong's external incarnation.

"Of course, while fighting you!"

Sun Wukong laughed coldly, "I already warned you, don't be overconfident! You plot against the Great Sage, and the Great Sage plots against you as well!"

Sun Wukong was no longer the reckless monkey who only knew how to charge head-on; any means that led to victory was a good means!
