Blue Star.
At this time, Huaxia was in a state of devastation.
Bodies littered the ground, like a purgatory on earth!
"Great Saint!!!"
A voice echoed throughout Blue Star, originating from Xiao Yao Sect!
Looking again at Xiao Yao Sect, it was already... destroyed!
The buildings had long been reduced to ruins and rubble, countless sect disciples were dead or injured, Tao Tian Demon Venerable, the auspicious Qilin, and others were all severely injured, lying unconscious.
Only Emperor Luo Tianlong looked towards the sky with worry, shouting angrily.
In the sky, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, Sun Wukong, stood proudly between heaven and earth, wearing the Phoenix Wing Purple Gold Crown, Chain Armor of Gold, Lotus Silk Cloud-Stepping Shoes, and holding the Golden Cudgel.
Yet before him stood another Supreme Emperor, who looked much older, with a small mustache, holding a black pen, and smiling at Sun Wukong.
"Sun Monkey, give up, we already know that another Supreme Emperor has entered the Ancient Wilderness Demon Realm, your Blue Star is left with only you as an Emperor."
"Cui Jue, you traitor, betraying the Underworld, betraying the Celestial Court, turning to the Demon Dao, working for those beasts, killing so many in the Celestial Court, killing so many in the Profound Dust Realm, what right do you have to speak to me!" Sun Wukong spat a mouthful of phlegm and spoke coldly.
Upon hearing this, Cui Jue's expression darkened immediately, his voice like rolling thunder resounded in all directions.
"Sun Wukong, refusing wine to drink punishment wine, if it weren't for someone above seeing your abilities, wanting me to capture you alive to the Celestial Realm, would you still be alive?!"
"Damn you, I, Lao Sun, won't go anywhere!" Sun Wukong shouted angrily, bursting forth, wielding the Golden Cudgel, smashing heavily towards Cui Jue.
"Stubborn fool!" Cui Jue coldly shouted, wielding the black pen in his hand, drawing the word 'retreat'.
In an instant, the word 'retreat' materialized, whizzing towards Sun Wukong, easily forcing him back, followed by drawing the word 'suppress' and heavily suppressing Sun Wukong.
This pen was a Chaos Supreme Treasure, the Judge's Pen, capable of turning decay into miracles, extremely terrifying.
At this moment, the Heaven and Earth Laws appeared, countless Heaven and Earth Order Chains materialized out of thin air, heading towards Cui Jue.
Seeing this, Cui Jue frowned, continuously drawing several large characters to fend off the Heaven and Earth Laws.
"Today, no matter what, I must take you to the Desolate Celestial Realm!" Cui Jue spoke coldly, wielding the Judge's Pen, countless chains of mysterious ink-like ink emerged from the void, locking onto Sun Wukong, flying like serpents.
"In your dreams!" Sun Wukong roared furiously, his body gradually enlarging, he needed to break his seal and transform into the Demon Ape.
Only by transforming into the Demon Ape could he stand a chance in battle, he had promised Chen Lan to protect Blue Star.
"I knew you would change, this time I brought the Spirit Destruction Rope." Cui Jue laughed coldly, with a wave of his hand, a blue Flying Rope shot towards Sun Wukong, instantly binding his neck.
In just a moment, Sun Wukong felt the spiritual qi within him disappear completely, his demonization halted.
Seeing this, Sun Wukong was greatly shocked, he hadn't expected his opponents to use such treasures to capture him.
Now, truly powerless, unable to demonize, how could he resist?
"Up!" Cui Jue shouted coldly, the chains binding Sun Wukong, tying him up securely, pulling him over.
In an instant, Sun Wukong was brought before Cui Jue, unable to muster any strength, resigned to his fate.
"Heh, who would've thought you'd use so many Chaos Treasures just to capture me, quite generous indeed." Sun Wukong mocked, that Spirit Destruction Rope was a one-time-use Chaos Treasure.
In the same realm, any creature bound would have their spiritual qi wiped out, unable to recover for ten minutes, a true controlling Divine Artifact, such a lavish use indeed.
Cui Jue laughed coldly, without responding, opening a Space Tunnel, bringing Sun Wukong to the other side of Blue Star, where a Teleportation Array to the Desolate Celestial Realm awaited.
Seeing Sun Wukong taken away, Emperor Luo Tianlong was in despair, the last Emperor of Blue Star, lost as well!
He used his Divine Sense to survey the entirety of Huaxia.
Initially, it was still possible, but suddenly an ultimate emperor of the Desolate Celestial Realm appeared, it was Cui Jue, having somehow learned that the master wasn't on Blue Star, he came to capture Sun Wukong.
With the addition of this emperor, the scene immediately descended into chaos, everyone was unable to resist, the final result as just witnessed, where Sun Wukong was taken away.
Now, the best course of action was to awaken Tao Tian Demon Venerable and others, then unite to eliminate the remaining enemies, just hoping no more would come from the Desolate Celestial Realm.
Master, when will you return?
...
Celestial Realm Secret Land.
Thunder Emperor Hall.
Chen Lan had already controlled the Water Wind Dragon and was continuing the assessment when he suddenly felt uneasy, with a bad premonition, a feeling of uncanny intuition.
"What's happening to me, it feels like someone is calling me, a soul connection has been triggered, is it from Blue Star?" Chen Lan murmured, frowning, fearing something was wrong with Blue Star.
But with Sun Wukong on Blue Star, there shouldn't be any major issues, unless the Desolate Celestial Realm sent someone again, otherwise Sun Wukong could handle it.
For now, he needed to quickly pass the Thunder Emperor's assessment and acquire the Thunder Emperor's Dao Body first.
He had already reached the final destination.
[This battle, known as Heart Demon, everyone has a Heart Demon, only by overcoming one's Heart Demon can one attain the Great Dao, transcend the mundane, and become invincible under heaven]
A voice echoed throughout the Thunder Emperor Hall, and a portal appeared in front of Chen Lan.
[Once you enter, you either overcome your Heart Demon and come out alive or be consumed by it, staying inside for eternity. Will you choose to continue the assessment or leave?]
The voice rang again.
Chen Lan ignored it, resolutely stepping inside.
Having come this far, there was no thought of retreat, only the determination to fight to the end.
The Water Wind Dragon approached the portal and sat down cross-legged, intending to guard over Chen Lan.
As Chen Lan entered, the Thunder Emperor's Soul Body reappeared, looking at the portal with satisfaction.
"Well done, bravely facing one's Heart Demon, such courage is indeed rare." The Thunder Emperor nodded approvingly, as long as Chen Lan could emerge from within, he would bequeath his life's legacy entirely to Chen Lan.
He was the most outstanding talent the Thunder Emperor had ever seen, the one who most matched his standards and intentions, a favored child of heaven.
"However, this boy seems entangled with much karma, which is not a good sign, life is long, the path of cultivation even longer, how can one be burdened by worldly matters? To achieve self-fulfillment, to break through the Great Dao, one must sever all karma and purify themselves, only then can they achieve the Great Dao."
The Thunder Emperor sighed, entangled in so much karma would make conquering the Great Dao difficult, it was for various such reasons that he had fallen.
To break through that realm, one must sever worldly connections and thereafter seek their own path to enlightenment.
Understand that to command eternity is indeed lonely.
