Chapter 161: The Great Dao diverges, hard to tell who's superior!

That clear, crisp "crack" sound.

In this place, only within the rumbling of the Great Dao's collision does it become exceptionally clear!

Guarding the final black chain of the Void Seed, that chain representing the supreme law of "End".

It shattered!

Completely, it shattered!

Freed from its bonds, the Void Seed suddenly burst forth with a soft yet boundless golden light!

That golden light was not blinding.

It was like the newborn sun.

Carrying a warmth that lets all things feel at ease.

This aura instantly dispelled part of the chill brought by "Silence"!

It also smoothed the raging fury in Sun Wukong's heart!

"Master..."

Sun Wukong instinctively gazed toward that Dao Seed.

A hint of bewilderment flickered in his eyes.

Yet Silence's move was faster than his!

At the instant the Dao Seed broke free of its bonds,

His silhouette, formed of pure darkness, instantly turned into a stream of light again!

Target!

Directly pointing at that golden Dao Seed!

"You dare!"

Sun Wukong instantly came to his senses!

A surge of even more violent fury shot up to the heavens!

He didn't even think.

The Golden Cudgel in his hand, wrapped with the power to overturn the entire Chaos Realm's Equal Heaven Dao Rhythm!

He fiercely smashed it toward Silence!

But this time!

Silence didn't even turn its head!

He merely pressed back with his hand behind him!

An invisible Silence Extinction Power instantly formed a black barrier!

Boom——!!!

The Golden Cudgel slammed hard onto that barrier!

The entire World Embryo trembled violently!

Around it, the already chaotic Element Sea was utterly sliced into countless fragments at that moment!

Flames, thunder, darkness, light...

All the Primordial Laws, under this strike, turned into the purest energy turbulence!

But that thin-as-a-cicada's-wing black barrier,

merely trembled slightly.

and completely neutralized Sun Wukong's heaven-shattering, earth-destroying strike into nothing!

"How... how is this possible?!"

For the first time, a solemn expression appeared on Sun Wukong's face!

He realized.

Silence's attacks each time precisely targeted the foundation of his Equal Heaven Great Dao!

This was not a clash of strength.

but a kind of assimilation, like draining the pot from under the fire!

He was attempting to use his principle that "all things will eventually fall into silence"

to corrupt Sun Wukong's core belief that "my fate is mine, not Heaven's"!

"Playing this trick in front of me, Old Monkey?"

Sun Wukong let out a cold laugh!

Since reason won't work!

then I, Old Monkey, won't reason with you!

The next instant!

Sun Wukong's figure suddenly became elusive!

At times he turned into a violent bolt of lightning.

at times he became an invisible wisp of cool wind.

Every one of his actions completely defied Silence's predictions!

One second ago, the Golden Cudgel still carried the scorching heat that could burn the eight wastes.

the next second, its surface was covered with freezing spacetime black ice.

Change!

Change!

Change!

Sun Wukong, in his Great Dao, brought the essence of the "Variable" to the extreme!

You, didn't you say that everything has a Fixed Number?

Then, old Sun, will show you!

What truly is called unpredictable!

Beside them, Yao, protected within the final Pure Land.

She watches the battle before her, which has already completely exceeded her realm of understanding.

In her heart, only a shock remains!

She finally understood!

The Great Dao of these two fellows, although both have reached the supreme realm!

But, however, like water and fire.

It is fundamentally impossible to coexist!

One represents infinite possibilities and rebirth.

The other represents the sole conclusion and termination.

The ends of these two paths are destined to leave only one!

At that moment!

The situation on the field shifts again!

Facing Sun Wukong's wildly unbounded, utterly illogical attack.

Ji's ever still, blackened body like an ancient well.

Finally, a faint ripple appeared!

He seemed, also, irritated by Sun Wukong's unorthodox tactics.

He halted all attempts to seize the Dao Seed.

Slowly, he turned around.

Those eyes, formed of pure darkness.

Once again, they locked onto Sun Wukong with deadly focus!

"Fixed!"

A cold word.

Spat from his mouth!

In an instant!

A supreme law beyond description.

It descended in an instant!

Sun Wukong only felt the space‑time around him suddenly stall!

His wildly ferocious Equal Heaven Dao Rhythm.

Yet at this moment, an extremely brief stasis appeared!

It was like a painting being played wildly.

An invisible giant hand forcibly pressed the pause button!

This pause lasted not even a heartbeat!

Ji's figure, ghostlike, appeared before Sun Wukong!

A jet‑black fist that embodied the world's "Death" concept.

Towards Sun Wukong's chest.

It struck down hard!

"Give me…break!!!"

Just as that fist was about to touch Sun Wukong, in the moment before!

In Sun Wukong's eyes, two rays of dazzling black‑gold divine light erupted!

His rebellious Dao Heart.

It let out a roar that shook the universe!

Boom—!!!

The supreme law that bound him.

Was shattered by his pure, ultimate Irrational will.

Forcefully broke through!

Not only broke through!

It even sparked an even more terrifying rebound force!

Sun Wukong, instead of retreating, advanced!

He abandoned all defenses!

Similarly, a punch!

Facing Ji's Silent Extinction Fist that could erase everything!

He struck it fiercely!

The two fists collided again!

This time, however, Sun Wukong gained the upper hand!

He used that rebound force that broke the shackles.

Surprisingly, he blasted Ji, sending him flying backward!

In Silence's pupils, which are made of darkness.

For the first time, a trace of clearly visible fluctuation flashed past!

He seemed not to have thought of it, no matter what.

Sun Wukong's variable can actually be so stubborn as to reach such an unfathomable degree!

Even his supreme law that represents the Fixed Number cannot completely imprison it!

However.

On Sun Wukong's face, however, there was not the slightest hint of joy.

Because.

Although he blasted the opponent away with a single punch.

But his strength, which is enough to shatter stars,

When penetrating Silence's body,

but it felt like hitting a mass of void-like shadow.

Most of the power was merged into the endless void.

It was fundamentally impossible to cause any substantive harm to it!

Sun Wukong finally understood completely!

This fellow called Silence.

His very existence is like a manifestation of some kind of law!

It is a kind of conceptual thing!

Wanting to defeat him with pure physical power,

is almost impossible!

At this moment!

Both sides, although still, are frantically engaging in attack and defense!

But no one can truly suppress the opponent!

Presenting a strange, evenly matched situation!
