Chapter 531: Summoning the Monkey King

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Wow, so many people!”

“Come here! I’ve got a great spot for you.”

On the wall of Dragon City, which was ten times as large as before, people were cramming and craning their heads.

“What’s going on here? Why is it crowded?”

“Do you not know? The City Master has returned from the City of Humans with a Quasi Mythological offering. A ritual is about to begin!”

Not just the residents of Dragon City, there were also a lot of people who had arrived from other branch sub-settlements.

It was because a special ritual was going to be performed to summon the first Quasi Mythological hero for Dragon City before the advancement test.

“Please back off and keep a distance!”

On the city wall, a lot of security guards were sweating and trying to maintain order.

Considering that even the Legendary heroes’ test could already influence the environment, and the Quasi Mythological hero would only cause greater damage, the ritual wasn’t performed in the altar inside Dragon City but in the prairie to the north of Dragon City near the sea.

“Let’s get started!”

Ji Ye stood in the sky above the prairie shrouded in the clouds.

With his Transcendent Rank-7 strength, he didn’t have to worry about the aftermath of the ritual.

However, he was quite curious as to what the test of the Quasi Mythological offering would be.

This divine stone was essentially the Monkey King’s original body. It was unlikely going to present another Monkey King to fight the real one during the ritual, right?

However, when the ritual truly started, Ji Ye finally realized that the test was actually even harder than the real or fake Monkey King.

“Roar!”

In the sky, the dragons, as the settlement core of Dragon City, appeared and spouted power of providence towards the divine stone.

Hum!

Winding the clock back a little bit, to the moment before the offering was activated by the power of providence…

In Chidragon on Earth.

“Get lost! I got it first!”

“Whoever pays for it gets it.”

“Get the h.e.l.l out of here! It’s mine!”

In a large supermarket, a lot of people were shopping crazily.

They all seemed excited. Some people even cursed at each other angrily just because other people laid hands on items they wanted first.

It was all because the news of the Great Darkness was finally divulged half a month earlier.

At this moment, many places on Earth were already caught in the chaos.

Fortunately, thanks to the arrangements made by Chidragon after learning the news and the traditions of the country, the riots weren’t huge, but everybody was still panicked!

The daily necessities in the supermarkets and grocery markets sold out quickly.

[“A live stream from the Land of Inheritance is available. Would you like to watch it?”]

However, when the situation was so intense that a fight was about to begin, a piece of information suddenly popped up in all the customers’ heads.

No, everyone in the country, and even the natives abroad, all received such a hint in their head.

“The Land of Inheritance? F*ck. Why should I watch you right now? Can it stop the doom? I won’t watch it!”

“The Great Darkness is a real doom. As long as we win on the Land of Inheritance, maybe we will all ascend and be immortalized. I’d like to watch it!”

“Watch.”

Apart from the cynical minority, most people quickly walked to a safe area and then activated the stream option in their heads.

“What a huge dragon! It’s at least a thousand meters long!”

The perspective, different from when Ji Ye hunted the Black Serpent, was from the wall of Dragon City like the players who were watching. The audience who watched the live stream from Earth were all shocked at the Dragons of Providence.

“Is this the famous Dragon City settlement?”

Some of the smart guys soon realized what location the picture represented.

“What did Dragon City do?”

“Why is a national live stream going on?”

Some players who were still unable to log in after death were curious and surprised.

[“The ritual to summon a Quasi Mythological hero is starting. Hence this announcement!”]

The next piece of information answered their question.

Every (Quasi) Mythological hero would greatly consume the Earth civilizations’ power of providence.

Therefore, the scene of the test was displayed as some sort of announcement.

“Does it mean that only a limited number of Quasi Mythological heroes from Earth can be summoned? If a country summons all the heroes early, the other countries won’t be able to summon their own Mythological heroes?”

“Also, if the summoning fails, the general power of providence of Earth will decline!”

The players and experts had already figured out what it meant.

“If so, will the test for the Quasi Legendary hero be very hard? Who’s the hero? What are the odds of success?”

The atmosphere became intense all of a sudden.

After all, everybody was aware that the actions of the settlements on the Land of Inheritance would decide how many survivors could flee from the Great Darkness.

“What’s happening here?”

The players in Dragon City didn’t know that the ritual had enabled a live stream that had billions of viewers on Earth.

However, what happened next made them ill at ease nonetheless.

Hum!

After the divine stone was activated by the bright yellow power of providence of humankind, the colors of the power of providence that belonged to the aliens appeared in the sky and formed creatures in different shapes.

There were six-winged black tigers, three-eyed men with eagle faces, green-skinned monsters that had four arms and looked like apes, metal creatures whose eyes flashed electromagnetic light, demons ablaze with purple flames, wriggling worms, yellow bears that wore armor…

“They all seem to be aliens that we defeated before… Indeed, they’re Eagle Men, Forest Monsters, Metal Men, Yakshas… Why are they here?”

Some old players of Dragon City recognized those monsters.

“Not good. Has the advancement test begun early?”

Dragon City had actually run into a similar scene before.

When the settlement core became Transcendent, the settlement cores of many aliens had appeared and tried to stop the advancement.

However, what appeared last time was the settlement cores, and this time, it was the projections of the aliens. They didn’t attack the Dragons of Providence but gazed at the divine stone down below.

To be more exact, they were gazing at the vague shadows that the divine stone had projected under the glittering golden light.

Some of the illusionary figures resembled humans but had deer heads, goat horns, or fox faces. Some were completely beasts. Some were even just bones!

“Are those illusions the villains from Journey to the West?”

Ji Ye, in the sky, realized something.

“The divine stone is a Mythological embryo that can summon a hero from Earth when activated by the power of providence. However, just like when spiritual items often catch the attention of demons, those villains might be a test that the Quasi Mythological hero must pa.s.s…”

Based on his finding in the City of Humans that villains wouldn’t be directly manifested by the Land of Inheritance, Ji Ye had a guess.

“This doesn’t look right. It’s not just a test for the hero but also one for the settlement.”

Ji Ye thought of something else.

If those evil creatures defeated the arriving hero, they would arrive in the hero’s place, which would be a disaster for the human beings in Dragon City.

After all, most of those creatures were brutal and bloodthirsty, and few of them were humans.

“My goodness, are all the monsters in the Journey to the West here? Is he really able to pa.s.s the test?”

After learning the information, even Mister Bug, who had always admired the hero, became more or less unconfident.

After all, in the original novel, many villains had fought the hero head-on and defeated him.

“According to the rules of the Land of Inheritance, he should be able to.

“After all, the hero is much more famous and popular than any of the villains, which means that his skills and talents will be very powerful. The villains at his level can’t possibly beat him in one-on-one battles!”

Elder Meng spoke in the communication channel.

“However, this is clearly not going to be a one-on-one duel, not to mention that the alien settlement cores are in the sky ready to wreak havoc.

“Therefore, this summoning is going to be very, very, very hard!”

What Elder Meng said was exactly what was in the hearts of most people of Dragon City.

They had already foreseen that the test for a Quasi Mythological hero wouldn’t be easy, but they didn’t realize that this preparation scene would already be full of treasure.

On the other hand, the Quasi Mythological Soul of Civilization, which Ji Ye created by consuming a hundred Transcendent Souls of Civilization, was also activated by the power of providence. It turned into an unparalleled hero who wore a purple crown, a piece of golden armor, a pair of long boots, and held an iron bar in his hand.

He was exactly Sun Wukong, the Monkey King!

“Huh, it seems that this Sun Wukong is still in the period when he is the Monkey King.”

Ji Ye noticed Sun Wukong’s clothes immediately.

Sun Wukong’s clothes were plainer when he traveled to the west, and he didn’t have much panache after he became a Buddha.

He only wore such clothes before he was suppressed underneath a mountain. It was when he was the real Monkey King who turned the seas, the heavens, and the netherworld upside down!

Of course, it was also possible that this was the period when he was briefly expelled by Xuanzang and returned home as the Monkey King.

As the Monkey King soared to the sky, a rhythm that everybody was familiar with echoed in and outside of Dragon City.

In the sky, an alien that looked like a fog dashed down.

It was an alien creature named Fog Dragon. It could spew out clouds and create a ma.s.sive frozen area. It was rather strong.

Although it was named as Fog Dragon, it was not really a dragon. However, when it dashed down, it melted with a white dragon near the divine stone and became twice as strong.

Then, the white dragon soared up towards Sun Wukong!

“Roar!”

However, when the white dragon approached Sun Wukong, it was. .h.i.t in the head before it could open its mouth, and pillars of mist dozens of meters long ejected from its nostrils.

Its body was flung up and then exploded into a mist in the sky.

Then, it transformed into the bright light that represented the human power of providence and fused into the Dragons of Providence that was exhausted from activating the Soul of Civilization, making it brighter than before.

Roar!

Another alien jumped down and melted with an enormous bear near the divine stone, fully covering it with stone armor. It also continuously absorbed power from the soil.

Then, without hesitation, it ran towards Sun Wukong and crashed into him like a mountain.

Boom!

The stone bear versus the stone monkey. The collision was purely one between iron and steel.

Even the Monkey King’s bar couldn’t shatter the thick stone armor on the bear.

As long as it wasn’t completely shattered, the incessant power of the soul would restore the stone armor before the next collision.

The alien that possessed the bear was a mythic creature that could control soil and stone. It could gain infinite strength just by standing on the ground, and its body was as heavy as a mountain.

“Ha!”

Seeing that he couldn’t finish off the opponent with one attack, Sun Wukong seemed rather anxious.

He was outnumbered, which meant that he had to defeat every enemy with minimal cost. Fighting a prolonged battle against the black bear wouldn’t be worth it.

Whoos.h.!.+

Therefore, before the next collision, he simply stabbed the Monkey King’s bar to the ground.

He raised his hands and grabbed the rus.h.i.+ng bear before he roared and threw it up to the sky.

With its abilities, the bear was as heavy as a mountain.

However, the Monkey King had the strength to carry two mountains on his shoulders while running fast. He was too strong!

Boom!

After being thrown into the sky, the bear instantly lost the power supply.

Furthermore, it was restrained by the armor on its body and couldn’t carry out its own techniques.

The Monkey King smashed down with its bar again, breaking both the armor on the bear and the bear itself.

Then, the bear turned into the yellow power of providence and filled the settlement core of Dragon City, making the Dragons of Providence brighter than before again!

However, soon after the stone bear was gone, the battlefield was filled with raging winds and clothes.

The sun was dim, and the world was dark. Every grain of sand carried a horrifying force and transformed the prairie of Dragon City into a desert!

“Back off! Back off a little bit!”

Even the players who were observing the battle from the wall were flung off with bleeding wounds on their faces, even though the power of providence had blocked most of the impact.

“%#$@!”

The overwhelming sandstorm, mixed with a creepy wind, formed a black storm that was even more violent.

At the center of the black store was a skeleton whose every bone was a piece of glittering jade. It seemed to be chanting.

“Scourge of the Bones!”

After it cast the spell, bones extended from the sands on the ground and formed arms.

Scourge of the Bones was a Legendary that could awaken the deceased creatures on the battlefield and transform them into undead warriors.

“Give me my life!”

Bone creatures with red flames flas.h.i.+ng in their eyes emerged from the sands and surrounded Sun Wukong who could hardly keep his eyes open in the sandstorm.

The bone creatures were beasts, aliens, yakshas, and even a lot of human beings. Even the green Flood Dragon was among them. Even though its bones had already been utilized as materials, it was still resurrected as a hundred-meter-long bone dragon by the Legendary skill!

In the blink of an eye, a hundred thousand bone soldiers had gathered in the black storm and attacked the Monkey King together.

The Yellow Wind Monster and the White Bone Monster, two formidable monsters, had attacked together. It was truly a shocking scene.

“What do you think a bunch of inferior demons can do?”

However, Sun Wukong, surrounded by ten thousand bone soldiers, sneered.

“Lengthen! Lengthen! Lengthen!”

He cast a spell, and the Monkey King’s bar in his hands kept growing. When it was long enough to cover the entire battlefield, Sun Wukong grabbed the bar and quickly swung it horizontally.

Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!

All the bones, be they humans, beasts, or dragons, were shattered into pieces the moment they hit the bar.

Even if they were regathered and rose from the ground again, they would be hit by the next swinging of the bar.

In the blink of an eye, the hundred thousand bone soldiers were reduced into powder by the Monkey King Bar.

In the end, even the Yellow Wind Monster and the White Bone Monster, which controlled everything, were killed in the indiscriminate attacks and dispersed after their power of providence ran out!

Boom!

Because the battlefield had been turned into sand, and it had collapsed in the previous battle, the seawater flowed back and formed a lake.

A red giant fish leaped from the seawater to the sky.

Then, it transformed into a monster that had a fish head and a human body and wore a golden helmet and armor. Its fangs were long and sharp.

It was the Spirituality King, a golden fish monster in the Tongtian River.

Whoos.h.!.+

On Sun Wukong’s body, some white fur popped up. They belonged to a fox who had a female face and cunningness all over its narrow eyes. Its nine tails tied up Sun Wukong like white ribbons.

It was exactly the Nine-Tailed Fox.

In Journey to the West, the Nine-Tailed Fox was a foster mother to a deity’s servants, and it even had the deity’s powerful rope, which ensured that nothing could escape from it after being caught.

While this Nine-Tailed Fox didn’t have the rope as its weapon, it had more than one helper.

“Monkey, die!”

The golden fish monster, with bulging eyes, smashed Sun Wukong in his eyes with its giant hammers.

Obviously, it knew very well that Sun Wukong had iron skin and his other parts were immune to weapons.

Sun Wukong’s eyes were indeed his weakness before he was tortured in the furnace.

However, after he was tortured in the furnace, his eyes were no longer ordinary.

Chi, Chi…

When the hammers were about to hit him, two streaks of golden light beamed out of Sun Wukong’s eyes and stuck to them, making it hard for them to fall on him.

“Roar!”

At the same time, he roared and bared his fangs, unleas.h.i.+ng enormous strength from his body.

Pop! Crackle!

The billions of glittering strands of hair on the Nine-Tailed Fox’s tails cracked and bled. The fox’s blood had already dyed the lake red.

Obviously, it indicated the expertise of the monster.

In fact, both the golden fish monster and the Nine-Tailed Fox carried a Transcendent Rank-6 vibe. Their ratings were even Legendary when they were possessed by aliens.

“Attack!”

The Nine-Tailed Fox shrieked and breathed out towards Sun Wukong’s face.

The alien that was attached to itself was named the Jade Fox.

The Jade Foxes were naturally born with the ability of enhancement. They could even control the Transcendent beings whose soul power wasn’t high enough!

However, Sun Wukong’s soul power was extremely magnificent. He was only halted for a moment even when he was under the blast of the enchanting power.

Boom!

However, when he was briefly halted, something trembled underneath his feet as if an earthquake had happened, and the eyes of a gigantic snake appeared in the water.

Covering itself up with the water that was reddened by the Nine-Tailed Fox’s blood, a gigantic red serpent had snuck to the bottom of the battlefield at some point.

“It’s the Ba Snake!”

Some players recognized the alien that possessed the giant serpent.

The Ba Snake was also a creature from ancient myths. It was said that it once swallowed an elephant and didn’t spew out its bones until three years later. Because it attacked human beings, the Yellow Emperor sent Da Yi to chop it into halves.

“Monkey King, careful!”

“Watch out!”

All the observers were exclaiming.

However, there was nothing they could do about the battle!

Pew!

The giant red serpent opened its mouth, which looked like the dark gate to h.e.l.l, and swallowed Sun Wukong.

The Nine-Tailed Fox, on the other hand, abandoned its nine tails and escaped from the mouth.

“It’s over!”

Someone seemed frustrated.

“Indeed it is, but it’s the red serpent that’s screwed. It’s bold enough to swallow the Monkey King. It probably didn’t know how Princess Iron Fan begged for mercy after swallowing him in.”

Someone else put on a smile of victory.

After swallowing Sun Wukong, the battlefield was quiet for about one minute.

After that, the Ba Snake wriggled uneasily as if it were in excruciating pain and evened the ground that had been seriously sabotaged in the battle.

Then, it quickly expanded from a hill a hundred meters high to a mountain a thousand meters tall. In the end, it was even rising to ten thousand meters.

Finally, the mountain couldn’t take it anymore, and it was blown up into roiling bright yellow power of providence.

In the middle of the yellow light, Sun Wukong, who was ten thousand meters tall, holding the bar that was as huge as a mountain, emerged unscathed.

He had turned large through a divine technique!

“Run!”

The Nine-Tailed Fox, which had lost all its nine tails and was bleeding hard, attempted to flee with fright in its eyes, but it was caught by a monkey hand and squeezed. Its blood dripped and transformed into the bright power of providence.

The golden fish that had a.s.sumed its original form and tried to hide in the dirty seawater was also caught by Sun Wukong and chewed hard with the madness of a monkey!

After the three monsters died, the Dragons of Providence at the settlement core were half restored.
