582. Chapter 565: Cutting Through
Monkey bared his fangs, raising the Ruyi Jingu Bang in his hand. It grew against the wind, like a Sky-Supporting Giant Pillar, smashing downwards.
With a single staff strike smashing down, the Sky-Supporting Giant Pillar, thick as a mountain, truly felt like Mount Tai pressing down.
Before the staff landed, the Staff Wind pressed down. The heavy air formed a terrifying Gang Wind tens of miles long.
The Five Elements Fist, which enters the Dao through Martial Arts, can manifest Martial Dao True Intent into physical form. Even a Demon Monster like Zhu Ganglie was no match for him.
After receiving guidance from the Great Protector-General of Tang, his Strength advanced by leaps and bounds.
Yet, facing this Sky-Supporting Giant Pillar smashing down from high altitude, he couldn't even get close to the Sky-Supporting Giant Pillar's main body before being directly blown away by the terrifying Gang Wind, smashing down somewhere unknown.
Only a white streak of air was left in the Sky, extending to who knows where.
At this moment, the Experts among the Great Tang Dynasty's Civil and Military Officials saw the mountain-like Giant Pillar overhead about to fall. They all took action, using their various abilities to blast towards the Giant Pillar, wanting to shatter it. The silver-helmeted, silver-armored Jade-faced General thrust his Five Tigers Soul Severing Spear straight towards the Sky. With True Qi infused, his single spear thrust made it truly seem as if five Fierce Tigers appeared roaring in the Sky.
"Who is the first to awaken from the great dream? In this life, I know myself! Behold my Slaying the Dragon in a Dream!"
A Civil Official performed Primordial Spirit Manifestation. Sword in hand, he stepped behind Monkey and swung his Treasured Sword, slashing towards his neck.
Zhang Xiaofan, clad in black, and Lu Xueqi, clad in white, each expelled a mouthful of Primordial Qi. The Soul Devouring Rod in Zhang Xiaofan's hand and the newly repaired Tianya Divine Sword in Lu Xueqi's hand spun nimbly as if alive, transforming into one black and one blue Flood Dragon. Then two became ten, ten became a hundred. For a moment, the Sky was filled with piercing, flying black and blue radiance.
The myriad Sword Lights shot towards the Sky-Supporting Giant Pillar overhead.
"Sword Cultivator?"
The Empty Lord, also clad in white, glanced at Zhang Xiaofan and Lu Xueqi with a surprised look. As far as he knew, there weren't many Sword Cultivators in the Great Tang Dynasty, and even fewer who could cultivate true skill.
He hadn't expected there to be Sword Cultivator Experts among these Outer Realm Visitors. Looking at the black and blue Sword Light shooting across the Sky, the Empty Lord couldn't help but feel a desire to compete. He flicked his finger, releasing the remaining several Treasured Swords from his Sword Casket.
This time, his Flying Swords didn't slash towards Monkey, but likewise shot towards the Sky-Supporting Giant Pillar pressing down from the Sky.
The several Treasured Swords transformed into several streaks of Sword Light, flickering on and off, traveling through The Void, piercing through everything in their path, and also stabbing straight towards the Sky-Supporting Giant Pillar overhead.
Looking at these humans who didn't know their life and death, Monkey let out a cold laugh. Golden flames blazed in his eyes. The moment the illusory figure of the Civil Official's Primordial Spirit, sword raised, arrived behind Monkey, a Yin Wind spread up from his feet. This Bi Wind, mixed with Yin Fire, instantly caused him to burn to ashes.
On the Ground, the body of a Civil Official who looked like a middle-aged Scholar went limp and fell to the ground, his breathing gone.
"Have these damned Human Race forgotten the prestige of the Thirteen Protectors of Flower-Fruit Mountain?"
Monkey looked at the humans who didn't know their life and death and wanted to forcefully resist his staff strike, speaking coldly.
This staff of his was the Sea-Pacifying Divine Needle from the East Sea. When he got serious, this staff could even fix the seawater of the entire East Sea in place.
By weight alone, it could crush these humans like ants, especially with the empowerment of his Divine Ability, it was enough to crush any enemy beneath the staff.
These humans below were merely a bunch of ants. Trying to forcefully resist his staff strike was no different from a praying mantis trying to stop a chariot, completely overestimating their own strength.
Monkey watched mockingly as a fellow wrapped in a Tree Demon Shell, over a thousand meters tall, appeared beneath his staff, extending over a thousand arms, seemingly trying to block his staff.
Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack—
The Tree Demon's arms had just touched the Sky-Supporting Giant Pillar, which was like frozen lava, when every single arm instantly shattered. Cracks spread from the arms to the Gedo Statue's entire body, and cracking sounds constantly echoed.
Uchiha Madara only felt an overwhelmingly powerful pressure completely shatter the Gedo Statue. Next were his Thousand-Hand Great Buddha and Susanoo. Under that powerful pressure, neither could even last three breaths of time before completely breaking apart.
Snap, snap, snap, snap, snap—
Sounds of jade stone shattering rang out from Uchiha Madara's body. Those were the Protective Jade Talismans he had exchanged for in the Samsara Palace, shattering under the immense pressure.
Not only these Jade Talismans, but the Protective Magic Tool and Single-Person Force Field Generator on his body also broke apart one by one.
However, it was precisely because these Jade Talismans, Magic Tools, and Items bore eighty percent of the pressure for him that Uchiha Madara managed to escape a calamity under Monkey's staff.
"Hmm?!" Monkey looked at the human who dissipated into white smoke. Seeing that his staff strike had been unleashed, yet people were escaping one after another, malice surged in his heart, and he couldn't help but add more force to his hand.
The speed of the Giant Pillar's descent suddenly accelerated. Several Reincarnators who had learned the Five Elements Fist, like Uchiha Madara, and wanted to forcefully resist this staff strike, were swept by the white airwave and instantly exploded into a pool of blood water.
Even the Decepticon Transformers, with their bodies of fine steel and steel bones, were directly flattened into a pile of steel ingots under this Staff Wind.
The Sword Light, Spear Shadows, Blade Qi, Missiles, and Ballista Bolts that landed on the staff, which was like a Sky-Supporting Giant Pillar, merely sparked and clanged, failing to even knock off a single stone chip.
"Do you really think this Monkey King was suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain for five hundred years and this staff can't kill people anymore! My hands and feet aren't soft!"
Seeing that the mountain-like Sky-Supporting Giant Pillar was only a few hundred meters away from the Dragon Carriage, the fierce Gang Wind stirred up by the staff even tore a giant fissure a hundred miles long in the Ground.
However, the Dragon Carriage directly below seemed to be in another Dimension. There was no wind or waves, and even the few white horses pulling the carriage and the Palace Maids and Eunuchs attending nearby showed no reaction to the Gang Wind.
The Staff Wind that tore through the Land couldn't even stir the corners of their clothes.
"There's still an Expert!"
After seeing this scene, Monkey's gaze fell upon the motionless Dragon Carriage. He let out a grin, and a malicious glint flashed in his golden pupils.
The next moment, he suddenly lifted his staff and swept it horizontally behind him. The massive Sky-Supporting Giant Pillar howled out, and the dozen or so figures attempting a sneak attack were instantly smashed flying thousands of miles away.
"They flew quite far!"
Monkey put his hand on his forehead, adopting a posture of looking into the distance, glanced at the dozen or so black dots, then raised his head to look at the Sky.
Boom! Rumble!
Rumbling! Suddenly, thunder sound boomed above the Sky, and a massive black cloud obscured the sun.
The entire Heaven and Earth plunged into darkness.
Monkey looked up and saw that tens of thousands of feet up in the high altitude, hundreds of Ironclad Ships, thousands of feet long, had appeared at some point. That boundless black cloud was surprisingly a dense mass of Iron Men flying out from the Ironclad Ships.
Looking at their appearance, they were exactly the kind of Puppet Iron Man he had just fought.
How many of these iron things were there?
A hundred thousand? Or hundreds of thousands?
Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals? Above the Mecha black cloud, which was like a Sky Curtain, divine thunder and lightning occasionally streaked across the long Sky.
This black cloud formed by Mecha descended upon the Sky above Monkey, seemingly slow but actually fast.
Facing so many Mecha, even Monkey, confident in his powerful Cultivation Base, didn't dare to be careless. His expression was cold. The flags behind him fluttered, and the Sky-Supporting Giant Pillar stood before him.
Whoosh whoosh~~~ A gale raged between Heaven and Earth, stirring up huge waves. An invisible, immense aura pressed down.
"Demon Monkey! Surrender now!!"
Above the black cloud, a Mecha with a body size significantly larger than its counterparts projected its voice. The divine thunder-like voice echoed for thousands of miles: "Surrender!"
"Hahahaha!"
Monkey let out a long laugh towards the Sky, picked his ears, and said disdainfully, "Back then, I killed my way from the South Heavenly Gate to the West Road of Penglai, raising my hand and bringing down my blade without even blinking. You think these dead things can do anything to this Great King!" Monkey raised his head, his eyes suddenly turning crimson, Monster Qi soaring into the Sky.
Dr. Vegapunk, watching this scene through the Mecha's view, habitually stuck out his tongue. "He really is a terrifying enemy!"
Then, he didn't hesitate to issue combat orders.
Hundreds and thousands of Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mecha instantly accelerated and swooped down towards Monkey.
Monkey looked at the dense black cloud enveloping him and let out a cold laugh. "Is that all?"
He bared his fangs, extended his palm, and grasped the Sky-Supporting Giant Pillar-like Ruyi Jingu Bang. With a howl, it broke through the air upwards:
"How could these small fry possibly be my Rival!"
Boom! Monkey raised his arm, and the Ruyi Jingu Bang streaked across the Sky like a flash of firelight, smashing horizontally across a thousand miles of Sky, sweeping towards the Mecha falling from the Sky.
The Sky-Supporting Giant Pillar pierced through layers of Space, igniting a thousand-zhang red light.
The first few hundred Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mecha that descended faced Monkey's staff strike. The nanobots inside their bodies rapidly combined into various forms.
Some Mecha transformed into weapons, wanting to forcefully resist this strike. Some transformed into Vibranium shields. Some wrapped their entire body in a layer of Vibranium. Some Mecha transformed their entire body into water flow. Some transformed themselves into illusions. Even more, some directly opened a door in the air and took dozens of Mecha inside the door.
Boom! Monkey swept through. Hundreds of Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mecha were directly swept a thousand miles away by his staff.
On Warhead Island, Lilith's complexion changed. Looking at the comparison data on the light screen, she said in disbelief, "How could this Monkey have become so strong!"
"It's obvious he wasn't using his full strength when fighting Number Nineteen just now!" Dr. Vegapunk, who bore some resemblance to Einstein, looked at the light screen before him and shook his head.
Whoosh whoosh!
Amidst the howling gale, Monkey once again swung the Sky-Supporting Giant Pillar from the long Sky, sweeping towards the Sky again.
With a single staff swing upwards, the immense force Monkey unleashed instantly shattered The Void. The stirred-up gale tore through thousands of miles of the long Sky! "I am the King of Ten Thousand Monsters!"
"Beep beep beep beep—"
"Beep beep beep—"
Hundreds of Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mecha, bearing the brunt of the attack, instantly sounded alarm sounds detecting high-energy reactions. Just as Monkey swung his staff towards the Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mecha group raining down from the Sky, a green portal suddenly appeared in the air behind him.
The door silently opened. A three to four meter tall Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mecha silently flew out from inside, arriving behind Monkey's head. It raised its arm. Below its elbow, its forearm transformed into a silver square short hammer. Looking at its appearance, it was almost exactly like the hammer in Thor's hand.
Green code rapidly flowed through the Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mecha's pupils. Clearly, someone was directly controlling this Mecha.
This Mecha raised its hand, and the short hammer in its hand heavily smashed towards Monkey's back of the head.
"Just trash, daring to attack me!"
Monkey felt the wind behind his head, but merely gave a cold smile. Malice surged in his eyes. "When I was ambushing people with my staff, none of you guys had even been built yet!"
The sneak attack Mecha's arm dropped. Its hammer, weighing hundreds of millions of jin, had hit empty air.
Almost at the same moment he swung the hammer, a figure appeared behind his head. The Sky-Supporting Giant Pillar in Monkey's hand suddenly shrank, becoming as thick as a bowl's mouth, shifting from extreme motion to extreme stillness,
Ignoring this surging force, Monkey swung his staff. A single staff strike broke through the air, almost tearing the sky in half, piercing through the shattered, tumbling Primordial Qi and The Void, and heavily smashed onto the forehead of this Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mecha, blowing it up with a boom! Bang! This Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mecha exploded. Countless sparks and electric current flickered on the shattered debris and scraps. Monkey's staff strike wasn't just as simple as blowing up this Mecha; with a single strike, he had killed an unknown number of nanobots.
On Warhead Island, the game controller in Lilith's hand emitted black smoke and exploded with a bang!
Dr. Vegapunk, standing nearby, was quick-witted. He grabbed a fire extinguisher from beside him and sprayed it towards Lilith. "Kill! Kill! Kill!"
With one staff strike, he swept away hundreds of Mecha. With another staff strike, he blew up the sneak attacker.
Monkey let out a loud laugh from the long Sky. The Ruyi Staff in his palm flashed, and the four great banners on his cloak fluttered behind him.
Amidst the surging, powerful domineering aura of Monster Qi, he shook his armor and charged directly towards the motherships from which the hundred thousand Mecha were descending!
After the optical computer recognized Monkey's intention, the Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mecha all accelerated to intercept him. At the same time, from the motherships, the main cannons and secondary ship cannons, already fully charged, simultaneously blasted towards Monkey.
Whoosh whoosh!! Countless thick streaking lights tore through the sky.
Boom! Rumble!
Heaven and Earth collapsed,
In the high altitude, all Primordial Qi was shaking and wailing. Under layers of shockwave ripples, it transformed into a world destruction tidal wave, rolling and flowing.
Under the ship cannons of the anti-star weapons, even with the main cannons only at ten percent power, under the artillery fire,
Collapse, collapse, everything was collapsing! Crumbling, crumbling, everything was crumbling! Above the long Sky, as far as the eye could see, everything was being destroyed in the massive collision between Monkey and the Mecha group!
The Sky was almost beaten into a paste. Shattered Mecha fell like rain, but in an instant, even more Mecha swarmed towards Monkey.
Various optic blasts, frost breath, blazing flames, and black hole bombs intersected in the air, accompanied by light beams falling from tens of thousands of feet in high altitude.
Monkey's performance was worthy of his fierce reputation as the King of Ten Thousand Monsters. The hundred thousand Anti-King of Ten Thousand Monsters Mecha that Dr. Vegapunk had accumulated over several years swarmed him, but even attacking with full force, they found it difficult to stop him.
One must know that the combat strength of these Mecha was all at the Near Immortal level. Theoretically, wearing this Mecha could allow one to fight a True Immortal at the Sky Father level.
This Monkey unleashed the Divine Ability of Outer Body Incarnation, transforming into thousands of clones. Each carrying a staff, relying on his Vajra Indestructible Body, he forcefully killed his way from ten thousand meters in high altitude into the Stratosphere, almost cutting through the Mecha combat group.
