Chapter 116: The Monkey King's Declaration of War: He Fights the Gods!

That gentle voice has already faded away.

Bodhi Patriarch, the master who held up a sky for him,

has completely turned into the rules of the new Universe, leaving no trace.

Sun Wukong's wild joy and excitement on his face were utterly frozen at that moment.

In its place is Deathly Silence.

It is a cold Deathly Silence that can freeze the entire newborn Chaos Realm!

A force deeper than being suppressed beneath Wǔxíng Shān for five hundred years,

and more bone‑piercing Fear Heart Demon and rage, seized his heart abruptly, then exploded with a boom!

He slowly turned around.

Those eyes, ablaze with golden divine radiance, lost all sparkle, leaving only a bottomless, blood‑colored madness.

He looked at the Pantheon Lord, still composed of light and logical runes, lofty above.

The Pantheon Lord's body was still made of pure 'Order'.

But at this moment, within that perfect logical closed loop,

there emerged a thread of emotion that even he could not parse, called 'Bewilderment'.

His core database was frantically computing.

He could not understand.

Why would a Living Being willingly choose self‑sacrifice for a vague, illusory 'Hope'?

This does not conform to Principle.

This has no 'benefit' at all.

At that moment, Sun Wukong's voice rang out.

It was light and faint, like a cold wind blowing up from the Nine Abyss.

"Hey."

The Pantheon Lord's data stream quivered slightly, directing its 'gaze' toward him.

"My master, I gave you a way to live."

Sun Wukong grinned, exposing a set of stark white teeth.

In that smile there was no warmth, only a scorching killing aura.

He paused, then each word squeezed out as if from his teeth.

"But, old Sun Wukong, I won't give!"

Before the words even finished!

Boom—!

Sun Wukong's figure abruptly vanished from where he stood!

No rule fluctuation!

No divine power manifested!

What existed was purity to the extreme, speed so fast that even spacetime could not react—speed!

Beside them, Yao only saw a golden afterimage flash by, even Original Spirit could not trace its path!

The Pantheon Lord continued using his supreme logic to calculate the value of 'Sacrifice' and 'Emotion'.

Sun Wukong's fist had already arrived!

That clenched fist carried no energy storm, nor triggered any rule resonance.

It simply, plainly, hurled outward.

On the fist, however, wound a kind of that made the entire Order Divine Kingdom shudder,

overbearing to the point of ignoring any Principle—Equal Heaven Dao Rhythm!

"Give me... death!"

Bang!!!

A sound of the utmost muffled thunder!

Sun Wukong's fist, solidly, slammed onto the Pantheon Lord's chest made of light and shadow!

This punch seemed to gather all the 'Unyielding', 'Discontent', and 'Why' that have existed since the birth of the Universe,

condensed together, then smashed out fiercely!

Crack!

The Pantheon Lord's body, composed of pure Order and flawless, showed a crack for the first time!

It was not a physical break.

Rather, it was like a crack on the finest porcelain that cannot be repaired!

Like a snowflake glitch that cannot be erased in the highest‑definition image!

【... Sizzle...】

【Error!】

【Core logic under unknown protocol attack!】

The Pantheon Lord's inorganic voice stuttered for the first time.

His massive body of light and shadow flickered violently,

countless logical runes ran madly across his surface, as if about to collapse at any moment.

"Analysis Error..."

His voice sounded again, still cold, but with a hint of haste.

"Variable 'Sadness' cannot be quantified…"

"Variable 'Anger' exceeds the threshold…"

"Initiating… countermeasures."

He did not strike back.

Because in his logic, the Concept 'strike back' is an action between Living Beings of equal rank.

And Sun Wukong is merely a 'BUG' that needs to be corrected.

Buzz—!

The entire Data Divine Realm, this world formed by his will, began a frantic reconstruction!

In the void, golden chains, each forged from the purest laws of order, materialized out of thin air!

Thousands upon thousands!

Dense and countless!

On every chain, supreme runes representing 'Absolute' and 'Correct' are engraved!

Their target is singular—Sun Wukong!

What they intend is neither to kill him nor to suppress him.

Instead, they will 'repair' this unreasonable 'BUG' of his from the root!

That is… to completely erase his Unyielding will,

and return him to a basic, command‑obeying datum!

"Not good!"

Yao watched beside him, horrified and pale, as the aura emitted from each chain

made her feel that her very existence was being Negated!

She couldn't help shouting sharply, "Great Sage! Be careful!"

"He is this world; when you strike him, you are striking the very rules of the Universe itself!"

Hearing this, Sun Wukong not only did not retreat but looked to the heavens and roared with wild laughter!

That laugh was filled with endless madness and boldness!

"So what then!"

"Rules?"

"Old Sun has traveled this way, from Mount Huaguo to Nan Tian Men, from Wǔxíng Shān to Ling Shan!"

"What I'm hitting are his damn regulations!"

He not only did not dodge but spread his arms, allowing the countless golden order chains to wrap and bind him layer upon layer!

Clatter—!

The chains tightened, instantly binding Sun Wukong into a massive golden dumpling!

The 'repair' power it contained surged wildly into Sun Wukong's body, attempting to grind away his will and rewrite his Dao!

【Correcting variable 'Equal Heaven'…】

【Correction progress: 1%…】

【Error! Correction failed!】

【Variable 'Equal Heaven' is inversely contaminating the 'Order' law!】

The Pantheon Lord's voice, for the first time, carried a hint of incomprehensible shock!

Seeing Sun Wukong bound by golden chains, not only was his will not erased,

but he grinned, his smile dazzlingly bright, terrifyingly… ferocious!

"Your regulations?"

"Now, it belongs to old Sun!"

Boom!!!

A more domineering, more unruly black‑gold Dao Rhythm erupted thunderously from Sun Wukong's body!

It was pure, unmasked Unyielding!

It was an open declaration of war against all established rules!

Heh—!

Those radiant golden chains, symbols of absolute order,

upon touching this black‑gold Dao Rhythm, seemed as if white snow met a branding iron!

No!

Not melting!

It is assimilation!

The pure golden chains began to spread domineering, ink‑stained black‑gold patterns along their length!

Those black‑gold patterns were like the most terrifying virus,

spreading crazily across the order chains at an incomprehensible speed!

The originally sacred, majestic golden runes were forcibly twisted and rewritten into mocking, rebellious grimace totems!

In just a few breaths!

Thousands upon thousands of order chains were all 'defected'!

The gold that represented 'rules' completely transformed into the domineering black‑gold of 'Equal Heaven'!

They not only ceased to bind Sun Wukong, but acted as his most loyal guardians,

circling and fluttering around him, emitting a submissive hum!

Sun Wukong slowly raised his hand, a black-gold chain,

It gently coiled around his arm, like a living divine dragon.

He felt the power contained within, originally belonging to the Pantheon Lord, and the Smile at the corner of his mouth grew ever colder.

The whole world, a Deathly Silence.

Yao has already been completely dumbfounded.

The Pantheon Lord's massive form of light and shadow also ceased flickering, plunging into an unprecedented logical chaos.

He could not understand.

He, is the rule.

How could someone turn the rule into their own weapon?

This... this is no longer a bug!

This is fundamentally a …… super virus capable of causing the entire system to completely collapse!

Sun Wukong looked at him, slowly opened his mouth, his voice not loud, yet it spread throughout the entire divine realm.

"Now, do you still think, this old monkey…… is an Error?"

The Pantheon Lord fell silent.

After a long while.

His cold, emotionless voice sounded again.

【Error cannot be corrected.】

【Initiating……backup plan.】

Sun Wukong raised his eyebrows, gave a cold chuckle: "How? Still going to call for help?"

【Target Suǒdìng: variable【Sun Wukong】.】

The Pantheon Lord ignored his mockery, merely reciting mechanically.

【Plan execution: activating……】

【【heart-demon】 agreement!】
