Wan Lei let out a heavy sigh and looked at the monkey with a serious gaze, saying slowly,
"Do you know? Incense… is poisonous."
"What?"
The monkey looked at Wan Lei in surprise,
"What do you mean? What do you know?"
Wan Lei shook his head and gritted his teeth,
"Even if I knew something, I wouldn't tell you. Am I supposed to let you kill more people?
You bunch of… inhumane monkeys!"
"Fine, if you won't say, then don't. I'll just assume you're trying to shake my resolve.
According to our agreement, you can die now."
The monkey sneered and then punched towards Wan Lei.
That punch was unpretentious, but the power it carried made Wan Lei clearly feel that it was irresistible.
He was certain to die.
*Boom!!!*
The punch did not land on Wan Lei. The jade pendant on his body emitted a powerful light, forming a protective shield that shielded him and sent the monkey flying back.
The monkey stood up and smiled,
"This thing… I recognize it. It can block attacks from saints, right? It's indeed something I cannot shake."
Wan Lei was stunned and instantly overjoyed.
He hadn't expected this jade pendant to have such a function.
Only a saint could break it. If a saint didn't act, no one could break it.
This meant that if a saint didn't act, he was invincible.
Then what was there to fear!
He would kill this monkey!
Even if he had to exhaust him to death.
Wan Lei's Thunder Emperor Hammer suddenly appeared in his hand, and just as he was about to strike, the monkey spoke again.
"Since I can't break it, then please have a saint make a move."
After saying this, the monkey's figure quickly vanished.
Wan Lei saw that the monkey had transformed into a strand of monkey hair, which drifted down to the ground.
Wan Lei looked around vigilantly. The monkey had said he would invite a saint to act, so which saint would come…
The statue of the Great Sage Equal to Heaven in the distance suddenly trembled violently.
Pieces of rubble fell from the statue, crashing to the ground and crushing countless humans.
Or rather, corpses.
Piles of minced meat splattered black, foul blood under the rubble. Those not hit by the falling debris did not dodge, but instead looked up, their eyes even more fervent.
They looked towards the statue.
The stone on the surface of the statue had completely fallen off, and the statue, ten thousand feet tall, came to life, emanating light all over its body, shining brilliantly.
It was a monkey covered in fur.
The monkey wore a Purple-Gold Seven-Star Crown, stepped on Cloud-Treading Boots made of藕丝, was clad in a Golden Chain Mail, and held a Ruyi Jingu Bang in its hand.
It was exactly as depicted in the information.
Such radiance, such brilliance.
The monkey opened its eyes, which were golden-yellow.
"Great Sage Equal to Heaven…"
Bitterness welled up in Wan Lei's heart. He hesitated no longer, took out his spirit communication slip, and prepared to call for help.
Unfortunately, this was another plane, and the spirit communication slip could not transmit across planes.
He could not contact the Five Elements Hall.
This meant he could not call for help.
He… was going to die under the Great Sage Equal to Heaven's Ruyi Jingu Bang.
After opening his eyes, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven first looked around in confusion, then, with a blank expression, flew towards Wan Lei.
As he flew, his ten-thousand-foot-tall body gradually shrank, until it was the size of an ordinary monkey.
But the aura emanating from him grew stronger and stronger.
Behind his head, a saintly sun appeared.
A One-Yang Saint!
The Great Sage Equal to Heaven's lips curved into an exaggerated arc. Grinning menacingly, he raised his Ruyi Jingu Bang and swung it down towards Wan Lei.
Wan Lei was so terrified that his soul almost fled his body. He immediately used his Wind Blade Escape Technique and turned to flee.
Even though he knew he couldn't escape, fleeing was the only option now.
How fast was the Great Sage Equal to Heaven? In just the blink of an eye, he leaped forward and appeared behind Wan Lei, swinging his staff down towards Wan Lei's head.
*Boom!!!*
After a deafening roar, Wan Lei was sent crashing to the ground like a cannonball.
The protective shield on his body dimmed, and then, with a crack, the jade pendant at his waist shattered.
The protective shield vanished.
The magical treasure that could withstand a saint's attack had only managed to block one blow.
"Hahaha…"
The Great Sage Equal to Heaven let out a strange laugh and, dragging his Ruyi Jingu Bang, slowly flew towards Wan Lei.
The golden light in his eyes gradually turned red, and the curve of his lips became even more exaggerated, as if this weak human lying on the ground brought him extreme excitement.
Wan Lei struggled to stand up and looked at the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, swallowing hard.
He remembered the rumors that Little Gold had mentioned before.
Among the saints in the Immortal Realm, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven was known for having the strongest fighting spirit and the most brutal personality.
Falling into his hands, death itself was not the most terrifying thing; it was how miserably one died that was truly horrifying.
Facing a powerful enemy, giving up resistance was not Wan Lei's principle. Even if the enemy was incredibly strong, he would not give up hope of surviving.
Even if the enemy was the Great Sage Equal to Heaven.
Wan Lei's brow flashed with the Creation Divine Disk. After enlarging it, he placed it in front of him.
Perhaps this divine artifact wouldn't be smashed by the opponent.
However, the Creation Divine Disk was not omnipotent. In the final battle in the Thunder Wind Realm, even with the Creation Divine Disk and the Fate Control Diagram, two divine artifacts, blocking the explosion, he and Fang Xiaoyu were still severely injured.
What's more, his opponent was a saint.
"Kid, curiosity… kills people."
The Great Sage Equal to Heaven smiled eerily, swung his Ruyi Jingu Bang, leaped up, and brought it down towards Wan Lei.
It's over, my life is forfeit!
Despair flooded Wan Lei's heart.
No one could save him. No one knew that he, in this alien world, was about to be killed by a saint.
The Ruyi Jingu Bang whistled with a sharp sound, striking down towards Wan Lei's head. The sound was like the wail of a death-summoning ghost.
Suddenly, a staff appeared out of nowhere above Wan Lei, blocking the deadly blow.
*Boom!!!*
After a deafening explosion, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven was sent flying back!
Wan Lei's eyes widened, and he looked at the scene before him with disbelief, as if his worldview had been shattered.
Looking up, the owner of the staff that had repelled the Great Sage Equal to Heaven appeared.
It was also a monkey, simply wrapped in a tiger skin, looking no different from ordinary monkeys in the outside world.
In Wan Lei's eyes, this monkey's back was as vast as the sky, standing proudly in mid-air. The kingly aura that radiated from him, even without anger, made people involuntarily feel a sense of subservience.
Wan Lei quietly retreated, finally seeing the monkey's profile.
Extreme shock swept through his heart.
The monkey's eyes were filled with burning rage, his brows furrowed, and his fierce gaze was fixed on the Great Sage Equal to Heaven in the distance.
He looked exactly the same as the Great Sage Equal to Heaven!
Then who was the one trying to kill me just now?
Wan Lei turned to look at the Great Sage Equal to Heaven in the distance.
Unlike the solemn and angry expression of this monkey, that Great Sage Equal to Heaven still had a grinning smile on his lips and a contemptuous look in his eyes.
He held the Ruyi Jingu Bang with one hand, bowed slightly,
"Greetings, my King."
