Chapter 1057: Chapter 1057: Ziwei’s Fall

Sun Wukong’s strength is still very formidable. Although his cultivation level is only at level 85, his combat power surpasses far beyond his actual level.

So, even after battling for a long time, he might not be a match for the Ziwei Emperor, but entangling him for a period of time, that can be achieved.

Therefore, without any fear of the so-called karmic retribution, Sun Wukong engaged the Ziwei Emperor, buying some time for Tianxi Star.

As the cooldown time of the Silencing Zen finally passed, Tianxi Star rushed towards the Ziwei Emperor.

Although it was Sun Wukong who tangled with him, the Ziwei Emperor’s attention was naturally focused on Tianxi Star.

He was very clear that Tianxi Star was the only chance for the opponent to turn the tables. Otherwise, the Ziwei Emperor would not have just suddenly attacked, attempting to directly kill Tianxi Star with a sneak attack.

Though he did not know what means Tianxi Star would use to deal with him, since the opponent had acted, it must mean he was prepared.

With a thought, the Ziwei Emperor fully unleashed his power, firmly swinging his long sword, and the powerful sword qi pressed towards Sun Wukong, who was finally pushed back somewhat.

Then, the Ziwei Emperor pointed his sword at Tianxi Star. Regardless of what methods he actually had, one thing would not change, which was that Tianxi Star’s cultivation level was only at the Heavenly Immortal Realm.

So, if he were to first eliminate Tianxi Star, then the rest wouldn’t be an issue.

Xuanzang’s divine skills are remarkably strong, capable of reversing life and death, but the Ziwei Emperor believed that the more powerful a supernatural power is, the less it can be used casually, and it must have some unknown limitations.

Seeing the Ziwei Emperor’s sword pointing at him, apparently preparing to first eliminate him, Tianxi Star moved swiftly, the skill badge in his hand lighting up.

The Silencing Zen, which had long been stored in the skill badge, appeared and directly fell upon the Ziwei Emperor.

“What is this?” As the Silencing Zen fell on him, the Ziwei Emperor felt the power within his body instantly turn into a pool of dead water, difficult to move, and his expression changed dramatically.

The familiar feeling, the familiar taste, what kind of move is this? Of course, the Ziwei Emperor understood.

“So, the treasure he gave to Tianxi Star, stored this rule-type supernatural power inside? But this was stored by Xuanzang himself in advance, does this count as Xuanzang attacking me? What is the meaning of this!?”

Understanding the role of the skill badge through the familiar feeling of the Silencing Zen, the Ziwei Emperor still could not comprehend it.

Xuanzang previously stored his supernatural power here, launched by Tianxi Star; isn’t this still Xuanzang’s attack?

Wouldn’t this also incur karmic retribution?

The silence time of the Silencing Zen is not long, only a brief 2 seconds, but for Tianxi Star, these two seconds are enough to do quite a lot.

With the Silencing Zen silencing the Ziwei Emperor, Tianxi Star finally stood before the Ziwei Emperor.

Then, estimating the Silencing Zen’s time effect about to pass, he pointed his hand at the Ziwei Emperor.

Again, a skill move of Silencing Zen was cast onto the Ziwei Emperor, maintaining a continuous control of silence.

Although the Ziwei Emperor is exceedingly powerful, with the power within like a pool of dead water, unable to mobilize, what could be exerted was merely physical strength, naturally posing no threat to Tianxi Star.

Tianxi Star directly reached out, grabbed the Kongdong Seal from the Ziwei Emperor’s hand, exerted force suddenly, and energy exploded out.

Despite the Ziwei Emperor using all his strength to hold onto the Kongdong Seal, since Ziwei Emperor was not noted for body cultivation, and with power difficult to mobilize, merely relying on physical strength, how could he withstand Tianxi Star’s snatch?

Grabbing the Kongdong Seal, Tianxi Star quickly retreated, not giving the Ziwei Emperor any chance to counterattack.

“Damn it!” With the Kongdong Seal snatched from his hand, the Ziwei Emperor’s heart cried out in alarm.

Unexpectedly, Xuanzang had so many divine skills and treasures, not only mastering the law-type supernatural power himself but also being able to give this spell supernatural power to Tianxi Star.

Indeed, at the center of this immeasurable kalpa, even if the Journey to the West team performs the most incredible feats, it somehow seems reasonable?

At this moment, the Ziwei Emperor simultaneously felt regret in his heart.

For so many years, his cultivation level had already reached the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal, yet after all this time, he hadn’t managed to break through into the Quasi-Saint realm, still pushing hard to break through, but never considered tempering his physique?

Even if the cultivation level hasn’t increased, but the enhancement of physical strength likewise strengthens one’s power.

If the vertical development height isn’t achievable, why not develop horizontally?

If he had used a thousand or hundred years to temper his physique, today, would this Kongdong Seal be snatched away by a Heavenly Immortal Realm Tianxi Star?

However, now that it has come to this, even with regret, the Ziwei Emperor found it completely useless.

His thoughts shifted rapidly, but Emperor Ziwei’s reaction was extremely fast. As soon as he saw the Kongdong Seal being snatched away, he immediately lunged towards the Tianxi Star.

His intention was simple—he wanted to reclaim the Kongdong Seal.

As Emperor Ziwei advanced forward, after a brief moment, he felt the formerly unmovable power within him become active again—the effect of the Silencing Zen had worn off.

“Return my Kongdong Seal…”

Feeling his power accessible once more, Emperor Ziwei roared angrily, shouting loudly, while raising the long sword in his hand, slashing directly towards the Tianxi Star.

However, just as Emperor Ziwei’s attack was about to strike the Tianxi Star, Jiang Liu moved and directly blocked Emperor Ziwei’s path.

Simultaneously, he cast a Vajra Mantra on himself, raised the Thunder Halberd in his hand, and thwarted Emperor Ziwei’s sword.

Jiang Liu’s lips curled slightly: “Great Emperor, now that the Kongdong Seal is not in your hands, shall we have a good fight?”

“It’s over…” Watching Jiang Liu block his attack, while Sun Wukong and Long Eyebrow also surrounded him, Emperor Ziwei’s heart sank, realizing the severity of the situation.

Without the protection of the Kongdong Seal, could he alone fight against Xuanzang, Sun Wukong, and Long Eyebrow together?

“Xuanzang, between you and me, there’s no deep-seated enmity, and I am one of the Four Imperial Lords of the Heavenly Court…”

Taking a deep breath, Emperor Ziwei tried to soften his expression significantly and spoke to Jiang Liu.

“Sorry, Great Emperor. An ant and my shoe have no deep-seated enmity either…” Hearing the submissive words of Emperor Ziwei, Jiang Liu shook his head slightly, borrowing a line from a film from his past life as a response.

Jiang Liu’s reply made Emperor Ziwei’s brows furrow slightly, while a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.

An ant? As one of the Four Imperial Lords, in the Three Realms and Six Paths, his status was second to none, and Xuanzang dared to liken him to an ant?

Despite his intense anger, the situation forced his hand. In this moment, being the fish and the knife, no matter the anger in his heart, Emperor Ziwei took a deep breath and suppressed it.

“Xuanzang, think about it, the conflict between us is merely due to the lives of some common people in Southern Dipper City…”

“Enough, Great Emperor, stop the nonsense. Whatever you have to say, save it for a chat with Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva!” Yet, hearing those words from Emperor Ziwei, Jiang Liu seemed to lose patience entirely, shaking his head as he spoke.

While speaking, dazzling electrical light flashed on his Thunder Halberd, pointing directly at Emperor Ziwei.

A brilliant azure lightning bolt directly rushed towards Emperor Ziwei.

The special effect of the Thunder Halberd could add a 2-second paralysis effect to single attacks, rendering this ability extremely useful.

This lightning reached Emperor Ziwei, instantly paralyzing him, rendering him immobile.

With Jiang Liu’s action, Sun Wukong and Long Eyebrow naturally wouldn’t stand by—they joined in the fight.

Though Emperor Ziwei, as a powerhouse at the Great Luo Golden Immortal Peak, wielded tremendous strength, facing three Great Luo Golden Immortal powerhouses together, how could he be their match?

Quickly, the health bar above his head began to rapidly decline.

The Tianxi Star beside him, clutching the Kongdong Seal in hand, focused intently on the battle ahead, witnessing Emperor Ziwei’s deteriorating condition, feeling quite pleased.

Back then, the downfall of his Great Shang Dynasty was initially caused because the Kongdong Seal in his hand was seized, leading eventually to their demise.

Now, the Kongdong Seal had returned to him, and Emperor Ziwei appeared to be on the brink of death. Tianxi Star couldn’t have felt happier.

Originally, when Bo Yikao returned to the Heavenly Court and assumed the identity of Emperor Ziwei, he believed his chance for revenge this lifetime was gone.

Yet surprisingly, he got to see this day…

If not for his weak strength, without qualification to intervene in the battle, Tianxi Star would have relished joining in to add salt to the wound.

“Xuanzang, just for a few commoners, will you actually strike against me—one of the Four Imperial Lords?”

“Xuanzang, I—it’s my fault. Please grant me an opportunity to amend my ways…”

“Xuanzang, have you considered what consequences might arise from my death at your hands, as one of the Four Imperial Lords? These consequences are not something you can bear!”

Golden Flood Dragon Scissors, transforming into two golden flood dragons, flashed across, and finally an excellent head flew off.
