Rebirth in Journey to the West: Sun Wukong

Chapter 397: Chapter 397 Seal of Heaven-Subduing (First Update!)

“Domain Power!”

When Ying Long, Ying Tian, and Candle Dragon, Ao Tian, unleashed their domains, they swiftly enveloped the Heavenly Court warriors, who immediately paled in shock. Although they were all above the Quasi-Saint Realm, not everyone was fortunate enough to have comprehended Domain Power beforehand.

The gap between those who possessed Domain Power and those who did not was as vast as the disparity between the bright moon and fireflies. Moments earlier, these Heavenly Court warriors had seemed at ease, but upon witnessing Ying Long, Ying Tian, and Candle Dragon, Ao Tian, deploying their domains, they all panicked, hastily retreating to the sides and inadvertently exposing Supreme Saintly Heavenly Venerable Guang Chengzi.

“Guang Chengzi, open the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart for me!”

Erlang God Yang Jian roared, and his Purple Lightning Thunder Halberd came crashing down fiercely on Guang Chengzi’s head.

By seniority, Erlang God Yang Jian was a third-generation disciple of the Chan Sect, and Guang Chengzi was the first among the second-generation disciples. Yang Jian should have addressed Guang Chengzi as “Uncle-Master,” but he had long since fallen out with Real Man of Jade Cauldron and severed their master-disciple ties. Furthermore, Real Man of Jade Cauldron had fallen at the hands of Sun Wukong, and Yang Jian now had no connection with the Chan Sect—he was the Erlang God of Flower-Fruit Mountain!

...

“Want me to open the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart? Dream on!”

Guang Chengzi sneered, a longsword—an Innate Spiritual Treasure of medium grade—appeared in his hand, and he met Erlang God Yang Jian’s Purple Lightning Thunder Halberd blow for blow.

Boom!

An explosion rang out as sword and halberd clashed, and a stunning burst of thunder light suddenly erupted from the Purple Lightning Thunder Halberd. Accompanying this overwhelming force, Guang Chengzi was sent flying backward, tumbling several times in the air before steadying himself. Shaking violently, his hair stood on end from the electrocution of the thunder light radiating off the Purple Lightning Thunder Halberd, and he looked exceedingly disheveled.

“An Innate Spiritual Treasure of superior grade! Damn it!”

Guang Chengzi’s face turned as black as the bottom of a pot. Among those who stayed at Flower-Fruit Mountain, Erlang God Yang Jian, Nezha, and Luo Bai were the first to break through to the Quasi-Saint Realm, catching up to Guang Chengzi in cultivation. And with Erlang God Yang Jian’s Eight-Nine Profound Skill fully mastered, his close combat power was far above ordinary people. The Purple Lightning Thunder Halberd was an Innate Spiritual Treasure of superior grade, far more lethal than Guang Chengzi’s medium-grade longsword. In their first exchange, Guang Chengzi suffered a huge setback!

“If I had the Immortal-Slaying Sword in hand, it wouldn’t be your turn to be so arrogant, damn it!”

Guang Chengzi, having broken through to the Quasi-Saint Realm and produced a Good Corpse, now lacked the Immortal-Slaying Sword. His combat power was even less than when he half-stepped into the Quasi-Saint Realm wielding the sword. Now suppressed by a single move from his nephew Yang Jian, Guang Chengzi felt a rage surging to his head, as if he would explode with anger!

If only Sun Wukong hadn’t fallen into the Endless Abyss with his Immortal-Slaying Sword, Guang Chengzi might have already subdued the Wu Gou twin swords and reformed the sword. His combat power would have been far beyond its current level!

Cursed Sun Wukong, that damned Demon Monkey! He was filled with hatred!

“Guang Chengzi, I’ll say it one more time, open the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart! Otherwise, don’t blame me for being ruthless with my halberd!”

Erlang God Yang Jian held his Purple Lightning Thunder Halberd diagonally towards Guang Chengzi. His handsome face was etched with sternness, and now as enemies, he would show not the slightest mercy. Had he wanted to force Guang Chengzi to open the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart, his previous strike would have been more than just triggering the thunder power of the halberd.

“You wish for me to open the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart to release those fiends? Preposterous! Once they enter the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart, they should not dream of leaving alive! Yang Jian, you have betrayed the Heavenly Court, and today, you shall not escape death, just like those fiends!”

Guang Chengzi glared at Erlang God Yang Jian with a venomous look in his eyes, growling through clenched teeth.

“Stubborn fool! It seems that I must kill you first before I can open the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart myself!”

The expression in Erlang God Yang Jian’s eyes turned cold, and a chilling murderous intent began to swirl around him. Guang Chengzi was not the master of the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart and could only borrow it; he couldn’t control it; even the Jade Emperor couldn’t either. The only one who could truly control the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart was Goddess Nuwa, who was in seclusion far within the thirty-third layer of Da Luo Heaven. As long as Guang Chengzi was taken out, Erlang God Yang Jian could open the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Chart himself, for Goddess Nuwa had once lent it to him, and he was very clear on the method to manipulate it!

“You dare?”

“You’ll see if I dare!”

With a move of his figure, Erlang God Yang Jian charged at Guang Chengzi once more, the Immortal-Slaying Blade in his hands erupting with astonishing purple electricity. Holding the halberd shaft, he positioned himself in a starting stance, and the next moment he fiercely cleaved at Guang Chengzi.

“Hundred and Eight Sovereign Slash, Immortal-slaying Blade!”

The Hundred and Eight Sovereign Slash, Immortal-slaying Blade was the ultimate move attached to the Purple Lightning Thunder Halberd, which Erlang God Yang Jian had comprehended from it. He had already mastered it to perfection. With one slash, heaven and earth lost color, and to Guang Chengzi, it seemed as if the entire world was enveloped within Erlang God Yang Jian’s slash, with nowhere to hide, no escape!

“What kind of move is this?”

Guang Chengzi was incredibly alarmed internally; there were definitely no moves this powerful within the Chan Sect. This was not taught to Erlang God Yang Jian by Real Man of Jade Cauldron; where had he learned it?

A dodge was impossible, and Guang Chengzi didn’t have the time to ask Erlang God Yang Jian. He channeled all of his Immortal Force into the longsword in his hands and blocked towards the Purple Lightning Thunder Halberd, hoping to fend off this peerlessly powerful slash.

“Crack!”

A crisp sound of a blade breaking echoed; the Medium Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure longsword in Guang Chengzi’s hands was directly split into two pieces by Erlang God Yang Jian’s slash. The tip of the Purple Lightning Thunder Halberd paused briefly, then continued with a terrifying force that could extinguish all life’s vitality, slashing towards Guang Chengzi’s chest.

“Seal of Heaven-Subduing!”

Facing imminent peril, Guang Chengzi was so scared that he nearly lost his soul and no longer cared to hide his trump card. The Seal of Heaven-Subduing, which he hadn’t used for a long time, flew out from his Dantian and blocked the Purple Lightning Thunder Halberd’s deadly slash.

With a loud bang, Guang Chengzi was sent flying. The Seal of Heaven-Subduing spun several times in mid-air and turned into a streak of light, falling into the hands of Guang Chengzi who had stabilized his form. His face paled and then flushed repeatedly for a while, until he couldn’t help but vomit a mouthful of blood with a “wah,” as his entire aura instantly became desolate.

“It’s the Seal of Heaven-Subduing! Finally decided to use the Seal of Heaven-Subduing, have you?”

A glint of sharpness flashed in Erlang God Yang Jian’s eyes. He was very familiar with the Seal of Heaven-Subduing—it was a Superior Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, extremely hard and immensely powerful, forged from a portion of Mount Buzhou. It was specifically designed to smash down upon foreheads, and few could survive its impact. In the Divine Enthronement battles, many an Immortal had died under this Seal of Heaven-Subduing!
