Chapter 117: Chapter 117 The Battle of Youdu

Sun Wukong and the True Martial Great Emperor flew over the black sea enshrouded in thick fog, below which black water churned, constantly raising huge waves.

They first passed the Ice-Fire Island where they had surrounded Liuer last time, then delved deeper into even more ominous territories.

The Northern Dark Sea was far more than ten thousand miles in radius, and due to its complex terrain, it was scattered with numerous islands and solitary mountains; without precise information, it would be difficult to thoroughly investigate the area in a short amount of time.

However, Sun Wukong had already learned about the situation in this area from the Myriad Saints Ancient Dragon, and though he was not clear about the distribution of the demonic cult’s forces, he knew roughly where their stronghold was located.

Sun Wukong scratched his hand subconsciously and realized that it was smooth; the face of Jiutou Chong, that little white face, just could not provide the same sensation as his own hand scratching.

He temporarily restrained his monkey nature and seriously introduced, "There are two mountains in the Northern Dark Sea that are particularly treacherous: Youdu Mountain and Xuanqiu Mountain, atop which lie the Great You Kingdom and the Great Xuan Kingdom, respectively.

The Myriad Saints Ancient Dragon has been to Youdu Mountain and knows it to be the stronghold of the demonic cult, but he has never been to Xuanqiu Mountain and does not know what that place is like."

The True Martial Great Emperor, transformed into the Myriad Saints Ancient Dragon and not showing the dignity of the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Supreme, nodded and said, "If your previous deduction is correct and the ancient Demon Clan is hiding in the Northern Dark Sea, then their hiding place should be Xuanqiu Mountain."

A glint of divine light flashed in Sun Wukong’s eyes, "This time, we must capture all these demons in one fell swoop."

Being familiar with societal interactions did not mean he had lost his heart that hated evil like an enemy.

Continuing deeper, they encountered many desperate and vicious bandits along the way, but for those two, it was clearly the bandits’ misfortune.

From these bandits, they also gleaned more information about the demonic cult.

Upon reaching deep into the Northern Dark Sea, they saw a bald mountain shrouded in thick fog, emitting a deep aura, standing atop the black water amidst the scattered islands.

Before they could get close, two soldiers dressed as disciples of the demonic cult approached.

"State your names!"

Sun Wukong and the True Martial Great Emperor exchanged glances, then acted immediately, each seizing one and diving into the sea to question separately, quickly gaining a rough understanding of the demonic cult’s forces.

As they continued to approach Youdu Mountain, they silently captured those patrolling demonic soldiers, and thus continued their investigation.

In the end, they learned an important piece of information, Moluo was in a cave discussing matters with a black-robed Taoist!

The identity of the black-robed Taoist was not hard to guess.

The True Martial Great Emperor could not help but admire how this completely matched Sun Wukong’s previous speculation.

The Demon Emperor’s son, Lu Ya, in his search for the ancient Heavenly Court, really did have close ties with the demonic cult!

Next, they relayed the information they had gathered back and timely adjusted their pre-battle deployment, before returning to the place and ascending Youdu Mountain.

...

Inside the caves of Youdu Mountain, silence had fallen, neither Moluo nor Lu Ya spoke.

Suddenly, a demonic soldier came in to report that the Myriad Saints Ancient Dragon and Jiutou Chong had come to pay their respects.

Lu Ya frowned; Jiutou Chong was his man, who should have gone to Xuanqiu Mountain to meet him, so why would he come to pay respects to the Demon Lord of the demonic cult?

"Drop that suspicious look, I haven’t poached your man," Moluo said with a laugh.

"Be wary of deceit," Lu Ya said gravely.

"I want to see who dares to intrude upon my demon lair!" Moluo sneered with a ferocious smile and ordered the demonic soldiers to bring the two outsiders in.

After a while, the Myriad Saints Ancient Dragon and Jiutou Chong entered, one saluting Moluo and the other saluting Lu Ya. Because they were well-prepared, they did not reveal any flaws.

Moluo watched from above without speaking.

Lu Ya asked, "Jiutouchong, if you are not returning to Xuanqiu, what brings you here?"

Sun Wukong hastily replied, "I had just acquired the Cangyun Blood Spirit Stone and the Ancient Stele of the Fox Clan. My plan was to escort the Myriad Saints Ancient Dragon to Youdu Mountain first, and then return to Xuanqiu to meet the Crown Prince,"

however, I ran into the minions of the Demon Lord on my way, who said the Crown Prince was in Youdu negotiating with the Demon Lord. So I took the Myriad Saints Ancient Dragon with me and came here on the way."

"Without asking for permission, I have trespassed into the lands of the Demon Sect, I beg the Crown Prince to punish me!"

True Martial Great Emperor, disguised as the Myriad Saints Ancient Dragon, also feigned shock and said, "I seldom visit Youdu Mountain and thought the journey here was dangerous, so I asked Jiutouchong, my dear nephew, to escort me. I did not expect to commit such a taboo, I hope the Crown Prince will abate his anger."

Lu Ya was suspicious of trickery, but he couldn’t see anything wrong with the Jiutouchong before him, and with that explanation, his suspicions were mostly allayed.

Moreover, he had long heard that Jiutouchong had his eyes on the daughter of the Myriad Saints Ancient Dragon. This act of escorting seemed reasonable.

Then, he turned his attention to the matter he cared about most and asked gravely, "Where are the items?"

Sun Wukong quickly took out the Cangyun Blood Spirit Stone and the Ancient Stele of the Fox Clan and presented them before Lu Ya: "Crown Prince, the items are here."

At this moment, Moluo’s gaze shifted slightly, also eyeing the items taken out by Sun Wukong.

Lu Ya took the items, barely able to contain the excitement in his heart.

As the prince of the ancient Demon Court, he had waited for this day for far too long.

With these two items, and upon finding the bloodline left by the four great nine-tailed celestial foxes, and obtaining the Sealing Formation Array within the Ancient Stele of the Fox Clan, they would be able to break the seal of the Eye of the North Sea!

But the next moment, before he could examine them closely, he saw the ten Cangyun Blood Spirit Stones and the Ancient Stele of the Fox Clan flash with divine light and turn into a clump of golden monkey hairs.

"What, monkey hairs?" Lu Ya’s expression changed drastically.

"Sun Wukong, you have quite the nerve!" Moluo sneered coldly, immediately revealing Sun Wukong’s true identity.

"Haha, old crow, eat my stick!" Sun Wukong laughed boisterously as the Jingu Bang hidden in the palm of his hand suddenly grew in size and smashed down on the black-clothed Lu Ya.

"Court death!" Lu Ya raged, drawing the treasure sword from his body and slashing out a black divine light imbued with a fierce aura.

Boom!

The Jingu Bang collided with the black sword light, releasing a more powerful aura that swept in all directions, as if it would destroy everything.

This display of might took both parties, yet to engage in action inside the cave, by surprise.

Moluo was surprised and doubtful, while the True Martial Great Emperor was purely astonished.

Because they realized, the power of Sun Wukong’s strike was extremely close to that of a Quasi-Saint!

How long had it been? Sun Wukong’s strength was not like this the last time!

And the black-clothed Lu Ya was obviously not the true form of Taoist Lu Ya; his strength was not much higher than that of Sun Wukong.

Moluo only took one glance before he turned to look at the still unmoving Myriad Saints Ancient Dragon and asked in a deep voice, "And who might you be?"

The True Martial Great Emperor revealed his true form, dressed in black armor and wielding a Divine Sword, declaring authoritatively, "Heavenly Court, the Great Demon-Slaying Master of the Nine Heavens."

Moluo scoffed, "Demon-slaying? What grand ambition! We were evenly matched last time; this time, you will regret stepping into my demon den!"

Swoosh!

One, a disheveled Supreme One of Demon-Slaying, and the other, a Demon Lord of the Demon Sect with demonic patterns on his forehead, unsheathed their swords at the same time, breaking through Youdu Mountain and engaging in an epic battle above the northern dark seas.

For a time, sword light was cast around like a curtain, Demonic Flame surged, and floods reached the heavens.
