Chapter 1423: 953 Six-eared macaque

Yet, everyone knows their own family’s affairs. Despite his celebrated reputation, among the seven great saints, he was actually the weakest. Other demons and monsters might have similar strength to his, but they each had their own formidable backing—

The Bull Demon King was backed by the Great Sun Tathagata, the Flood Dragon Demon King had the Buddhist door behind him, the Peng Demon King was supported by the Ancient demon clan...

Only the Six-eared macaque stood as a legitimate hermit; if not for his good fortune in obtaining an Innate Spiritual Treasure like the Green Light Yin Yang Lamp, he wouldn’t have been able to mix with such elite circles.

Those with powerful patrons naturally weren’t afraid of the Heaven Court. But the Six-eared macaque had no such backing. Though he self-proclaimed the Wind Moving Great Saint, deep down he felt extremely insecure, fearing that one day the strong ones from Heaven would come knocking at his door to annihilate him.

Originally, the Six-eared macaque had planned to take advantage of the other six great saints’ fame to gain some fate and pilfer some cultivation resources.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Chen’s sudden emergence completely disrupted his plan, snatching away his treasure, the Green Light Yin Yang Lamp, on which he based his very existence.

Now the Six-eared macaque was in total panic. Ever since he lost the Green Light Yin Yang Lamp, he had been hiding in his cave, playing dead at home, hoping this tactic would enable him to avoid Heaven Court’s retribution.

In truth, hundreds of years passed, and no one had come looking for trouble with the Six-eared macaque. Gradually, he began to believe that the incident had truly blown over.

But unexpectedly, on this very day, he suddenly became restless and anxious.

The Six-eared macaque thought carefully and realized that the only thing that could bring trouble now was what he did back at Huaguo Mountain.

Since being taught a lesson by the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign, the Six-eared macaque had always been cautious. The only reckless thing he had done in these years was to join the anti-Heaven organization at Huaguo Mountain.

"So much time has passed, and Heaven Court still hasn’t forgotten about me?"

The Six-eared macaque was somewhat flabbergasted; he really thought the matter had passed, but to his surprise, the Heaven Court was more vengeful than he’d imagined.

"Let’s go, leave this place."

"I’ve heard that beyond the Three Realms, there is a place called All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, not ruled by Heaven Court’s authority. I can escape there; once I’m there, I’ll be safe."

The Six-eared macaque wasn’t one to sit and await his fate. Sensing something was amiss, he leapt up to use his Divine Ability, the Cloud Somersault, intending to leave this place and head to All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds.

For him, traversing the spatial rifts to get to All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds was indeed risky, but staying here was equally dangerous. Faced with such odds, he preferred to take the risk; perhaps he could find a glimmer of hope to survive.

His venture in becoming blood brothers with Sun Wukong wasn’t without gains. At the very least, he had acquired the Great Celestial Immortal Arts, the Earthly Fiend 72 Transformations, and the Cloud Somersault Divine Ability from Sun Wukong.

In the presence of the Six-eared macaque, Sun Wukong’s intentions could not be hidden; the macaque heard everything loud and clear, thus learning of Sun Wukong’s legacy.

Listening to the sounds of all beings was not just about hearing voices, but also divine thoughts and inner monologues. Without defenses around the Six-eared macaque, he could review your memories from beginning to end in their entirety.

The Six-eared macaque’s future death at the hands of Sun Wukong was also related to this affair. Did he really think the saint’s legacy was so easy to seize? Today you take it, but the price you will pay in the future is your life.

"Six-eared macaque, long time no see."

Just as the Six-eared macaque was about to leave his cave, a voice he couldn’t forget even in his dreams suddenly rang out beside his ear.

Immediately, the Six-eared macaque felt an irresistible power envelop him, dragging him into the void.

He didn’t know how long it had been—a moment, yet perhaps several years—when the Six-eared macaque regained consciousness and slowly awoke. Upon opening his eyes, what he saw was an unfamiliar realm of chaos, and not a single sound reached his ears.

But when he lifted his head, he saw a familiar figure, the nightmare inside his heart—Jiang Chen.

"Tsk tsk, of the four great spiritual monkeys, you’re the one who’s fared the worst." Seeing the Six-eared macaque awaken, Jiang Chen turned and smiled at Wu Zhiqi beside him.

"With such divine ability, if properly used, how could one not become a great figure? It’s nothing but foul intent, not employing the divine ability in righteous places, which led to such an outcome."

Wu Zhiqi glanced at the Six-Eared Macaque with disdain.

In his view, given the Six-Eared Macaque’s origins and that powerful innate divine ability, if he had committed to learning under a master instead of stealing knowledge everywhere, he would at least be at the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal now.

Wu Zhiqi was qualified to speak thus about the Six-Eared Macaque; despite being known as an ancient fierce beast, he was the legitimate God of Huai Water, honored by Heaven and Earth, a righteous deity of Heaven and Earth.

At that moment, the Six-Eared Macaque noticed for the first time there was another presence beside Jiang Chen. It was a monkey similar to him, only shackled in place with iron chains.

"Are you the senior Wu Zhiqi?"

The Six-Eared Macaque was stunned for a moment, having recognized Wu Zhiqi’s identity. Although his power was negligible, he knew many secrets of Heaven and Earth – what do you expect with his extra ears?

"I brought you here not for a family reunion but for a favor; lend me a drop of your essence blood."

As Jiang Chen spoke, he did not wait for the Six-Eared Macaque’s consent, and directly extracted a drop of his essence blood. With this, the essence blood of the four great spiritual monkeys was gathered.

"Do not say I did not give you a chance, just stay put honestly here, and after this matter is concluded, I’ll permit you to join the Human Race."

Jiang Chen spoke to the Six-Eared Macaque, the Human King acted with exceptional fairness and would not let anyone be treated unfairly. Today, taking a drop of essence blood from the Six-Eared Macaque, he would owe him a new future.

With the Six-Eared Macaque’s talent, letting him join the Human Race and giving him modest cultivation would surely mold him into a great general for the Human Race in the future. After all, as a descendant of a Chaos Demigod, his innate gifts should not be underestimated.

Ignoring the Six-Eared Macaque’s reaction, Jiang Chen grabbed Wu Zhiqi, and with a thought, they left Turtle Mountain and arrived in the Boundless Starry Sky.

To deal with the existence of a Chaos Demigod, it was of course impossible to act in the Nine States; only in the Boundless Starry Sky, Jiang Chen’s home ground, could he easily suppress him.

Boom!

Endless stardust converged in front of Jiang Chen, forming a small constellation that enveloped the essence blood of the four great spiritual monkeys, slowly refining it.

At the same time, the Boundless Starry Sky no longer transformed the Chaos Qi but poured all the Chaos Qi it had drawn from the Great Chaos into the constellation.

The essence blood of the four great spiritual monkeys alone was insufficient to craft the body of a Chaos Demigod, but with a great amount of Chaos Qi added, it was enough.

Endless stardust swirled, time began to accelerate, and the four drops of essence blood mixed with the Chaos Qi within the constellation slowly merged, evolving into a colossal Chaos Divine Fetus.

More and more Chaos Qi came together, absorbed by the newborn Divine Fetus. Then, with a thundering explosion, the Divine Fetus burst forth, and a Chaotic Demon Ape emerged – with crimson eyes, protruding fangs, and an overbearing fierceness that assaulted the senses.

However, this Chaos Divine Ape, though formidable, had a dull gaze and a vacant expression. It had a form but no spirit, the body of a Chaotic Demon Ape. Certainly, it was not an original body but an imitation created by Jiang Chen, roughly equivalent to an Innate Saint.

"That should do it!"

Having taken a glance and seen no issues, Jiang Chen turned to Wu Zhiqi. Using the Boundless Starry Sky to simulate the Ruined Land, an endless pulling force was generated, streaming towards Wu Zhiqi to extract the residual thoughts of the Demon God from within him forcibly.

Simultaneously, Jiang Chen was also using his divine ability, Star Shifting and Dipper Changing from the thirty-six Heavenly Gang divine abilities, which could reverse time or move Heaven and Earth, causing all things to change place.

Combining the power of two supreme divine abilities, Jiang Chen could hardly believe that he would fail to extract the residual thoughts of the Demon God lurking in the depths of Wu Zhiqi’s Sea of Consciousness.

Deep within the Sea of Consciousness of Wu Zhiqi, a Chaos mark slowly rotated, emitting a mysterious fluctuation, continuously influencing Wu Zhiqi, turning his temperament more and more irritable, gradually losing his rationality.

The possession of the Chaos Demon God was not a forceful process; it began by transforming Wu Zhiqi into a fierce beast. Only afterwards would it possess him and take his place. Otherwise, if they fought directly, what if Wu Zhiqi chose self-destruction?
