Chapter 182

That torn pitch-black fissure was like a monster's giant maw.

Sun Wukong pulled Yao, and without hesitation charged in.

A rotten aura instantly surrounded them.

There is no light here.

There is no direction either.

Only pure chaos roars all around.

Yao instinctively grabbed Sun Wukong's arm.

She felt a wave of nausea from her divine soul.

The aura here is so foul it makes one want to vomit.

Compared to the pure Element Sea before, this is completely the opposite extreme.

Sun Wukong stopped.

He sensed everything around him.

The twisted laws, like rotting vines, entwined the void.

The star river was there, yet like a shattered mirror.

Each fragment pointed in a different direction.

This place is even more insane than the Element Sea.

Even more fucking chaotic.

Yao lifted her head to look at Sun Wukong.

She saw the golden divine mark on his forehead throbbing violently.

That golden light stood out especially in the darkness.

A familiar yet unfamiliar aura came from the chaos in the distance.

Inside Sun Wukong, the Void Dao Seed sensed it.

It trembled wildly.

Like a slumbering beast awakened.

Master's aura.

It's right here.

Right here in this corrupt, depraved, mad deep chaos.

Sun Wukong knew.

He hadn't sensed wrong.

The next Dao Seed is indeed right here.

It is hidden within this apocalyptic scene.

Waiting for him to discover.

Black-gold Great Sage Equal to Heaven Dao Rhythm burst from Sun Wukong.

It was like a huge net, tightly protecting him and Yao.

The mixed energies around that tried to erode them were instantly bounced off.

This area seems to have been eroded for too long by some powerful force.

Everything carries a rotten stench.

Yao felt a pang of palpitation.

"Great Sage," she said.

Her voice carried a hint of unease.

"This place…… is just too damn weird."

Sun Wukong did not answer.

He merely raised his hand and gently rubbed the divine mark on his brow.

On that icy face.

The corner of his mouth suddenly curled up.

That smile bore a hint of wildness.

And also a hint of indescribable excitement.

"Weird?"

Sun Wukong chuckled softly.

"Weird is good."

"Only this kind of place."

"Only then is it worthy of this Old Monkey's Equal Heaven."

His gaze stared straight ahead.

That expanse of twisted starfield that seemed endless.

Master's mystery.

Heavenly Dao's chessboard.

Hongjun's contempt.

All of this will be utterly smashed beneath his Golden Cudgel.

He will do it with his own hands.

To tear open all veiling illusions.

Go uncover all the secrets on the Master's body.

He did not hesitate in the slightest.

He also had no hesitation at all.

Sun Wukong tightly grasped Yao.

He stepped forward.

He was like a massive whale charging into the ocean.

Without looking back, he surged straight toward that chaotic Abyss.

The black‑golden light cut a Rift through the twisted star river.

Thus a new journey began.

They kept pressing deeper.

The surrounding stench of decay grew ever stronger.

Yao could even see some dead star fragments.

They were not a natural fall.

They seemed to have been corroded to ruin by some being.

A strange gray substance clung to those fragments.

Like moldy dead flesh.

Sun Wukong's expression grew increasingly solemn.

Yet the battle fire in his eyes burned even hotter.

His intuition told him.

This place is definitely not simple.

An invisible pulling force suddenly came from the depths.

That force carried a strong desire to possess.

It tried to disintegrate them.

Then merge into this decay.

Sun Wukong let out a cold snort.

The Great Sage Equal to Heaven Dao Rhythm around him suddenly expanded in a circle.

In an instant it shattered that pulling force.

"Damn!"

Yao couldn't help but curse.

"What the hell is this place?"

"We haven't even entered, and that damn thing already wants to eat people!"

Sun Wukong's Fiery Golden Eyes swept the surroundings.

He saw some vague shadows.

They flickered among the rotting star fragments.

Those shadows.

Emitted the same decay as this void.

A decay scent of the same origin.

They seemed to have been startled.

They began to slowly converge toward the direction they were in.

"Monkey."

Yao's tone grew a bit tense.

"Those things aren't the natives of this world, are they?"

Sun Wukong clenched the Golden Cudgel tightly.

A hint of disdain flickered in his eyes.

And a trace of madness.

"Whatever it is, it doesn't matter."

"How dare it block old Sun Wukong's path."

"I'll still give it a stick!"

He surged forward abruptly.

He charged straight at those vague shadows.

Rather than wait passively,

it's better to strike proactively.

That's his style.

Deep Chaos.

A pair of blood‑red eyes.

Suddenly opened in the darkness.

It stared greedily.

At the black‑golden light that breached its domain.

A shrill screech rang out.

It exploded suddenly in the silent void.

The entire decaying world.

All trembled because of it.

The next moment!

A massive, unimaginable black shadow.

Like a death god descending!

In an instant, it blocked Sun Wukong's path forward.

On its body.

Covered with something like pus‑filled sores.

Continuously writhing bizarre flesh tumors.

Within those tumors.

Countless of them grew.

Blood‑red eyeballs.

Those eyeballs.

At this moment, everything Suǒdìng Sun Wukong.

"Heh."

Sun Wukong did not retreat but advanced.

In his eyes, fierce battle intent burned.

Golden Cudgel.

In his hand, it emitted a long‑awaited hum.

"Just in time."

"Let old Sun have a look."

"You, in this junkyard..."

"... what kind of unsightly things are hidden there!"

Yao's palm.

Was already sweating.

She felt.

The aura emitted by that massive black shadow.

Made her internal Illusory Dream Dao.

All began to become uncontrollable.

It was a kind more evil than Silent Extinction.

Deeper than chaos.

Pure... corruption!

At that very moment.

That huge black shadow.

Suddenly flung open its massive, fang‑filled maw.

A whiff of Xīngchòu bearing a sense of destruction.

In an instant, it surged toward Sun Wukong.

It intended to completely devour this intruder.

Consume it entirely.

Then, merge into its endless decay.

Sun Wukong let out a wild laugh.

In his eyes, not a hint of hesitation remained.

He raised the Golden Cudgel high.

The black‑gold Dao Rhythm shot skyward in an instant.

"Dare to devour old Sun?"

"You, also worthy?!"

Golden Cudgel.

Carrying boundless arrogance.

Wielding world‑shattering power.

He struck the massive maw fiercely!

A battle at the core of the decaying world.

The supreme battle!

It erupted instantly!

The black shadow neither flinched nor dodged.

In its eyes, a near‑contemptuous greed flickered.

It seemed to completely disregard Sun Wukong's attack.

It believed.

No existence could

Resist the erosion emanating from the source of corruption!

However!

The next second.

Golden Cudgel.

With that jet‑black massive mouth.

They collided with a booming crash!

There was no earth‑shattering roar as imagined.

Instead, a single eerie "chi‑la" sound.

That sound.

Was like sturdy cloth.

Being instantly sliced by a sharp blade.

The black shadow's massive mouth.

Incredibly!

Was struck by the Golden Cudgel.

Stiffly.

Ripped open a.

huge rift!

Sun Wukong sneered.

His Golden Cudgel, still undiminished.

Directly assaulting the Yellow Dragon.

The next Void Dao Seed's signal.

Was right inside this beast's body!

Yao's pupils snapped shut!

She saw.

Deep within that torn massive mouth.

A thing emitting a faint golden light.

Was flickering, beating on and off.

That is exactly!

Their objective for this journey!

Master's Dao Seed!

However!

Just as Sun Wukong was about to reach the Dao Seed!

Inside that black shadow.

A far stronger, corrupt torrent.

Burst forth violently!

It was no longer simple erosion.

It directly warped all surrounding space.

Dragging Sun Wukong, together with that Dao Seed.

Into a...

filled with endless void.

and a decaying, terrifying dimension!

Yao only managed to let out a gasp!

The next second.

Sun Wukong's figure.

Completely vanished into the twisted spatial rift.

Along with that Dao Seed awaiting awakening!

Only remained.

The massive black shadow, standing still, emitted a series of even more piercing...

triumphant screech!

And Yao.

Was caught by this sudden turn of events.

Completely rooted to the spot.

She jerked her head up.

Looking at that slowly healing black rift.

Sun Wukong!

Was devoured?!
