Chapter 884: Chapter 834 Shenxiao Heaven’s Intention Slays the Monkey King
Shenxiao Heavenly Will Sword!
This technique, originally crafted by Pei Xuanjing based on the foundation of his Taoist Skill, encompassing countless Sword Way skills and moves, now unleashed its rightful power, just as Pei Xuanjing had expected, drawing upon the will of heaven.
With this sword, celestial phenomena shifted, the vast sky for tens of thousands of miles changed color, thunder roared like a turbulent sea, the Four Seasons and Five Orders circulated, and Yin and Yang divided.
This sword caused the Celestial Ape King’s expression to drastically change, and the fury in his eyes instantly dispersed, replaced by a look of horror, because, with the sword before him, he felt the breath of death, something he hadn’t encountered in thousands of years, not even when he had contested with the Lion Emperor.
“Devour the sky, sweep across Heaven and Earth!” with a booming shout, the Golden Cudgel in the Celestial Ape King’s hand radiated divine power, tearing through the firmament, as if to end and sweep away Heaven and Earth.
Boom!
The sword light extinguished everything.
The slaughterous force of the Shenxiao Heavenly Will Sword destroyed everything; no matter how strong the Celestial Ape King’s innate Divine Abilities were, or how wild his move was, he still couldn’t defy the heavens.
Shenxiao Heaven’s Intention, the will of Heaven and Earth this sword symbolized, was simply beyond the current Celestial Ape King’s ability to withstand.
True Immortals, although they had achieved Immortality and could easily avoid death unless faced with a major calamity, even had the power to leave Heaven and Earth, roaming within the Chaos Void.
But this didn’t mean they were stronger than Heaven and Earth. In some Small Thousand Worlds, where True Immortals could not be contained, such as the once Great Ming World and the Sky Wasteland, they were invincible entities, even the Will of Heaven and Earth couldn’t erase them.
However, now it was different, the new Great Ming World had completed the advancement of Heaven and Earth, providing many True Immortal Leaders with the opportunity to break free of the shackles that once bound them and advance further; thus, Heaven and Earth progressed as well, even more so than they did.
At least, once Supreme Strong individuals standing at the Pinnacle of the Universe could contend with the Will of Heaven and Earth, now True Immortals found it hard to compete, or rather, they couldn’t easily defy the Will of Heaven and Earth.

The sword light extinguished everything, all that existed turned into nothingness, the indestructibly fierce Avatar of the Celestial Ape King disappeared without a trace, even the physical Avatar he had condensed was eradicated by the sword light, leaving only that half-transformed into an Immortal Weapon, the top-tier Divine Weapon, using the moment when the sword light shattered the void to slip into it and escape with the remaining will of the Celestial Ape King.
Before the will of the Celestial Ape King departed, he too left behind words, “This time, this king has lost, the fame of Shenxiao True Monarch I will bear in mind, and one day I will personally ascend Shenxiao Mountain, to seek guidance from the True Monarch once more.”
Watching the Golden Cudgel break through the sky, Pei Xuanjing made no move to stop it, for he too was greatly exhausted at this moment, after all, he was just an Avatar walking the earth, and the recent Shenxiao Heavenly Will Sword had taken a great toll on him, leaving him with no strength to continue blocking.
Unmoved by the words left by the will of the Celestial Ape King, Pei Xuanjing said with an indifferent expression, “If that’s the case, I shall quietly wait on Shenxiao Mountain for the grand arrival of the Monkey King.”

Pei Xuanjing had no plan to underestimate the Celestial Ape King, but he didn’t hold him in high regard anymore either. In other words, once an opponent had been defeated by his own hands, Pei Xuanjing didn’t believe there was any chance for them to catch up and surpass him.
Indeed, the Celestial Ape King had once been worthy of being compared to him, and had they fought to the death, even if Pei Xuanjing emerged as the victor, he would have had to pay a heavy price.
But that was just in the past. After the avatar of the Celestial Ape King was vanquished by Pei Xuanjing, even if its remaining will was brought back by a Half-Immortal Soldier, it no longer qualified to contend with Pei Xuanjing.
Their latest encounter marked a clear line of distinction. Being killed, the Celestial Ape King lost the opportunity to vie for the Creation Profound Mystery. Even if it managed to obtain the Creation Profound Mystery, it needed to heal its wounds first, while Pei Xuanjing could plunder the Creation Profound Mystery without reservation, enhancing himself. With one gaining and the other losing, the Ape King stood no chance of catching up to Pei Xuanjing again.
Unless some heaven-defying opportunity arose that allowed the Celestial Ape King’s power to skyrocket, there was no chance for him to challenge Pei Xuanjing again.
Moreover, the status and identities of the two were different. In the human race, Pei Xuanjing’s status was revered, unconstrained by anyone. However, while the Celestial Ape King’s position was not low among the Demon Race, he was greatly feared by the Lion Emperor. If he truly rose suddenly, it’s likely he would not even have had the chance to trouble Pei Xuanjing before the Lion Emperor stepped in.
Even thinking darkly, at this moment with his opponent injured, it was uncertain how the Lion Emperor would act.
That’s why Pei Xuanjing didn’t pay much attention to the fleeing, defeated Celestial Ape King. His focus remained on his own cultivation, which was the foundation of his existence.
Having descended from the void, Pei Xuanjing arrived before the turbulent Creation Profound Mystery. Such a magnificent Creation Profound Mystery, for countless cultivators, was an opportunity to defy the heavens and alter fate, even for a true immortal like Pei Xuanjing, it was a rare treasure.
Yet, even though the Creation Profound Mystery was scattered here, not a single cultivator dared to covet it. After all, neither the Celestial Ape King nor the Shenxiao True Monarch were powerhouses they could afford to offend, and for many mighty cultivators watching, the Creation Profound Mystery at this moment had become more of a death warrant than a godly object.
Pei Xuanjing casually collected the scattered Creation Profound Mystery, then ignored the occasionally visible shadows of cultivators in the distance and disappeared, heading towards the Demon Domain.
As mentioned before, this was a grand feast, and Pei Xuanjing, being a true immortal, even just as an avatar, was like no person’s land in the Demon Domain. Especially after he had just vanquished the avatar of the Celestial Ape King, no Demon Race powerhouse could stand in his way.
The many strong figures of the Demon Race also knew that in such a situation, self-preservation was impossible. What they could do was to flee toward the realms of the Demon Tribe True Immortals, hoping to offer up the Creation Profound Mystery in their hands and seek the protection of the true immortals to spate them from dying by the sword of the Shenxiao True Monarch.
Although Pei Xuanjing’s avatar was formidable, it was not truly omnipotent. Therefore, after he had plundered a portion of the Creation Profound Mystery and saw the actions of these demons, he promptly chose to leave.
After all, he was only an avatar. Should those Demon Tribe True Immortals act dishonorably and attack him with their true bodies, he might suffer an unexpected loss if caught unprepared. Pei Xuanjing was not willing to overturn in a gutter.
As Pei Xuanjing retreated, the other avatars of the Demon Tribe True Immortals and Human Tribe True Immortals also ended their encounters and left with a considerable amount of Creation Profound Mystery. Or rather, the human cultivators, like the demon part, each offered up the Creation Profound Mystery they had obtained to the true immortals in exchange for protection, to avoid this calamity.
