Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!!
A series of deafening roars, as if the entire sky was about to collapse!
An endlessly shocking scene, as if traveling through time and space, back to the ancient and desolate era. The giant monkey and the divine dragon were tearing each other apart in a brutally direct way.
Biting, ramming, and whipping with its powerful tail, every attack from the ancient dragon made Sun Wukong grimace in pain.
Although his movements were much slower due to his enormous size, Sun Wukong was no slouch. He fought back with his two huge, furry fists, and every hit would send the ancient dragon's scales flying and make it cry out in pain.
"Roar!!!"
With a furious roar, the ancient dragon crashed into Sun Wukong's chest like a black lightning bolt, coiling around him rapidly and opening its huge mouth to bite down on his shoulder.
"Ah..."
With a cry of pain, and because he was unsteady on his feet, the monkey and the dragon fell to the ground with a loud bang, rolling over several times. The mountains shook and the earth moved, and countless clouds of dust were kicked up.
Almost caught in the crossfire, Sora, Athena, and the other two Sun Wukongs were startled and quickly flew into the air to avoid the danger.
Looking at the scene below, even Sora couldn't help but twitch his lips. After being rolled over twice by the giant Sun Wukong, the entire city of Nikko was almost flattened by him!
Looking into the distance, he sensed that Yuri and her sister Hikari were not in any serious danger, and Sora's heart relaxed a little.
"Vile dragon, watch old Sun deal with you!"
Having just suffered a great loss, Sun Wukong was unwilling to concede. His thick, powerful arms wrapped tightly around the ancient dragon, preventing its escape, while he flipped over and knelt on one knee.
One large hand gripped the divine dragon, pinning it to the ground, while the other formed a giant fist and slammed it mercilessly onto the dragon's body.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The ground cracked and continuously collapsed. With each punch, the ancient dragon let out a painful wail, while Sun Wukong laughed with immense, cathartic pleasure.
His eyes narrowed, killing intent bursting forth. Although Sora desperately wanted to rush over and cut down the arrogant monkey, he looked at the other two Sun Wukongs standing not far away with playful smiles and ultimately restrained himself.
At a time like this, he had to remain calm and not lose his composure.
Moreover, as his woman, as Athena, the former queen who ruled over the gods, she would absolutely not be defeated so easily!
As if in response to Sora's thoughts, a sharp glint flashed in the eyes of the ancient dragon, held down by Sun Wukong's giant hand. It opened its massive mouth, and a huge black energy sphere was continuously compressed and condensed.
An immense sense of danger rose in his heart. Even Sun Wukong's expression changed. How could he dare to continue? He released the ancient dragon and tried to create distance.
But it was too late!
With endless resentment and fury, Athena controlled the ancient dragon and shot the black energy sphere at Sun Wukong.
Swish…
With a sharp sound of tearing through the air, the energy sphere transformed into a colossal black pillar of light, shooting out with an unstoppable force. Sun Wukong, already slow due to his giant size, had no way to dodge and was hit head-on!
There was no earth-shattering explosion. The moment Sun Wukong was struck by the black pillar of light, his entire body rapidly petrified. In just a moment, Sun Wukong's thousand-foot-tall body had completely turned into a stone statue!
Lifelike, it stood upon the earth, still retaining the shocked and horrified expression from before its petrification...
Seeing the ancient dragon's desperate counterattack, Sora on the side let out a long sigh of relief, a slight smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
Truly his Athena, she had not disappointed him!
Coiling and winding, the massive, slender body slowly swam into the sky. Although many parts of its body were mangled and its bones shattered by the monkey's giant fists, the ancient dragon wore a cold smile of sweet revenge.
Wisps of black gas emerged from its body, and its injuries quickly healed, soon returning to its original majestic and domineering appearance.
However, although its injuries had recovered, the ancient dragon's aura had weakened considerably. It was clear that the previous series of battles had taken a great toll on it!
A murderous glint flashed in its golden eyes. Athena was not a forgiving goddess; she remembered clearly how that damned monkey had bullied her.
Without hesitation, Athena controlled the ancient dragon to charge at the petrified Sun Wukong. If she could shatter the statue, this damned monkey would be finished for good. Although there were two other monkeys on the side, this would at least weaken his power by a third.
However, just then, something unexpected happened!
The petrified Sun Wukong, whose expression had been frozen in shock, suddenly curled his lips into a sarcastic sneer...
Sora, Metis, and even Athena inside the ancient dragon were stunned by this change. The stone giant monkey actually took a half-step forward to meet the charging ancient dragon, then opened its massive mouth and spat out a pillar of crimson fire!
"Roar..."
Unable to dodge, the ancient dragon was instantly engulfed in the endless sea of fire, letting out a painful roar. The entire sky turned into a sea of crimson flames.
Crack... crack...
At the same time, with the sound of shattering glass, the petrified surface broke apart, and the figure of the giant Sun Wukong appeared once more!
"Hahaha... Goddess Athena, I, Old Sun, am a stone monkey born from a rock. Your powers are useless against me! Were you tricked? Were you tricked? Ahahaha..."
With an endlessly triumphant laugh, Sun Wukong's massive voice echoed through the air like thunder.
"Roar..."
With an unwilling and painful roar, the ancient dragon, engulfed and burned by the flames, thrashed and writhed in the sky. It tried to use its divine power to dispel the flames, but with a boom, the fire only burned more fiercely.
"It's useless. This is the Samadhi True Fire from the Eight Trigrams Furnace, a flame that can incinerate everything. Goddess Athena, this is the end for you!"
A cold and proud voice. [Samadhi True Fire], one of Sun Wukong's powers, capable of burning all things in the world.
From the moment she was engulfed by the Samadhi True Fire, Athena's defeat was sealed!
As expected, no matter how the ancient dragon struggled and roared, trying every possible method, it could not extinguish the flames.
With endless, painful screams, its sturdy scales and flesh gradually turned to nothingness under the blaze of the Samadhi True Fire...
Swoosh...
A sound of something cutting through the air was heard, and a stream of light shot out from the flames. It was Athena, forced to abandon the dragon and escape!
There was no other way. In the end, Athena could only give up the ancient dragon, watching helplessly as the strongest divine beast she had summoned was incinerated to nothingness by Sun Wukong's flames.
"Hahaha... Where do you think you're going!"
Unforgiving in his victory, Sun Wukong laughed heartily and reached out with a giant hand to grab Athena...
