Chapter 109: Jade Tripod Saves His Disciples
Yang Jian had been struck by two punches from the Star Picking Divine Ape’s Dharma Body unexpectedly, causing stars to burst before his eyes and his vision to darken.
How could Sun Wukong pass up this chance to kick a man when he’s down? His feud with Yang Jian was indeed too significant; he had fought with Yang Jian during his time as the Great Sage Equalling Heaven. Later, Yang Jian had killed Zixia, and in revenge, Sun Wukong disrupted Yang Jian’s religious gathering at the Guanjiangkou, killed the Six Sages of Meishan and the Howling Celestial Dog, and even brushed his face with a horsetail whisk at the Southern Heavenly Gate, leaving his face swollen and red. Their battle was truly to the death!
Even if Yang Jian wanted to call it quits, Sun Wukong would never agree—the revenge for Zixia had to be taken!
Sun Wukong laughed heartily; the Star Picking Divine Ape’s Dharma Body threw another punch towards Yang Jian’s belly. "Boom," a dull sound was heard as Yang Jian staggered backward and tumbled into the clouds. However, his profound skills were incredibly formidable, and his body had been trained to be extremely resilient. The punch only caused him severe pain without injuring the roots.
Yang Jian wanted to summon the Immortal Slaying Sword to kill Sun Wukong, but at that moment, the sword was locked in combat with the Great Mountains and Rivers Seal, unable to determine a victor. After all, this wasn’t his own magical treasure, and he couldn’t wield it as smoothly and effectively, naturally unable to break through the Great Seal.
Xue Rengui, having put away his halberd, hurriedly rode back to his camp, fearful of Yang Jian’s retaliation—for he was, after all, a celestial being!
When Yang Jian fell into the clouds from the other punch, the Star Picking Divine Ape was relentless and followed with another punch.
Yang Jian was furious; it was as if Sun Wukong was climbing up to his face deliberately to shame him. In response, Yang Jian’s profound skills circulated, unleashing a Dharma Gate. A beam of blue light shot out from his fingertips, containing a Daoist charm that gripped and instantly obliterated the Star Picking Divine Ape into a mere shadow.
Sun Wukong scratched his head and broke into laughter, saying, "Erlang God, look at those two bear-like eyes of yours, truly amusing!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Jian’s Three Corpse Gods trembled with rage as he picked up his Three-pointed Double-edged Sword to strike.
Sun Wukong, noticing Yang Jian’s technique was in disarray, found a gap and jabbed his staff into Yang Jian’s shoulder blades, knocking him down again.
