Chapter 467: Demonic Flame Explosive Slash
Who exactly was this person pretending to be Sun Wukong?
Ye Tian scrutinized him closely, but still couldn't make sense of it. Although the aura of the person before him was slightly different from Sun Wukong's, if his cultivation was lower, it was utterly impossible to tell from appearances alone.
There was no doubt about it—this was a fake Sun Wukong. He was an imposter. But who exactly was impersonating him? And what was their purpose in taking on Sun Wukong's identity?
"Wukong?"
"Master, I've come to see you. There are some things I haven't quite figured out lately, so I wanted to come and ask you."
"Hmm, Wukong, if there's something you don't understand, feel free to ask me anything!"
Sun Wukong approached Ye Tian, but suddenly, without warning, launched a strike at Ye Tian's back!
Bang!
A palm strike lashed out—but Ye Tian actually began to laugh. "You're nothing but a fraud. Did you really think I wasn't prepared? Tell me, you're not the real Sun Wukong. Who are you, really?"
"Heh… Ye Tian, I didn't think you'd be able to tell I wasn't the real Sun Wukong."
At that moment, the Jade Emperor revealed his true form. He had disguised himself as Sun Wukong to get close to Ye Tian and launch a sneak attack. But what he didn't expect was that even while impersonating Sun Wukong, he still couldn't pull off the ambush.
With the failed sneak attack, the Jade Emperor resumed his original form. Ye Tian looked at him and asked, "It's you? Why would you disguise yourself as Sun Wukong just to launch a sneak attack? Don't forget your status. You're the Jade Emperor! If this gets out, do you think it'll reflect well on you? This isn't just a disgrace to your name—it'll bring shame to all of Heaven!"
"Ye Tian, spare me the lectures. I'm here today for one reason: to take you down!"
"Take me down?"
Ye Tian laughed heartily. "Seems like I've made quite a few enemies. Even the Jade Emperor considers me a threat now!"
"And me as well!"
At that moment, the Buddha Tathagata appeared. He said, "Ye Tian, you've only yourself to blame. Your power has grown too overwhelming. That's why everyone sees you as a thorn in their side—something they must remove at all costs."
"Jade Emperor, Tathagata—I won't forget this. Didn't you come to fight me? Then fight me fair and square! Why resort to such underhanded sneak attacks? It's truly shameless. Do you think what you're doing is honorable?"
"As long as we defeat you, that's all that matters. The sneak attack failed, but if the two of us join forces, we'll definitely bring you down!"
"You think it'll be that easy?"
Ye Tian sneered coldly. Their strength was undeniable—individually, it wouldn't be easy to defeat either of them. Now that they were teaming up against him, the pressure was mounting.
What should he do?
He had already expended a great deal of energy in his earlier cultivation. If he continued to fight now, he'd be at a disadvantage.
Even though he knew facing both of them at once would put him in a losing position, Ye Tian had no way out. His only option was to face the challenge head-on!
"Fine. You want to take me down? Come on, then. I'd love to see just how shameless your so-called righteous methods can be!"
"Tathagata Divine Palm!"
Tathagata suddenly launched an attack at Ye Tian. Upon seeing the move, Ye Tian swiftly retreated and countered in the next instant.
"Arhat Overturning Heaven Seal!"
Their attacks collided with explosive force. Tathagata was pushed back several steps, clearly shaken.
He felt his internal organs churn—Ye Tian's strength was far beyond what he had anticipated. Just how had he cultivated to this level in such a short amount of time? It was truly astonishing!
"Well? Want to go again?"
Ye Tian looked directly at Tathagata, who coughed and said, "Jade Emperor, your turn!"
"Colorless Realm Divine Light!"
Golden rays of light burst forth, streaking toward Ye Tian. As he witnessed the power of the Colorless Realm Divine Light, Ye Tian felt a momentary breathlessness—it was truly formidable.
This was a power he had never seen the Jade Emperor unleash before!
"Such… such a powerful Colorless Realm Divine Light!"
"Now you understand my power? Hmph, too late. Once struck by my Colorless Realm Divine Light, you'll be reduced to ashes in moments!"
"Power… give me more power!"
Ye Tian summoned the power of heaven and earth. The very world trembled—the sun and moon seemed to lose their light, and the sky turned black.
The Jade Emperor was stunned. He hadn't expected Ye Tian to summon such overwhelming force—powerful enough to surpass even his Colorless Realm Divine Light!
"What is this power?!"
"Primordial Force of Heaven and Earth—Demonic Flame Explosive Slash!"
Scarlet flames surged forward, slicing through the divine light and cleaving it in two. The Jade Emperor stared at the destruction of his divine light and laughed. "Interesting… very interesting. You're the first person to ever break through my Colorless Realm Divine Light!"
"Is that so? Now, are you two going to come at me together, or one at a time? Frankly, taking you both on at once would be less of a hassle."
Ye Tian looked at the two shameless attackers. First, they tried a sneak attack. Now they wanted to wear him down with a two-on-one fight? Disgraceful. They were the leaders of the Heavenly Realm and the Buddhist Realm—how could they stoop so low?
Of course, they would never reveal what happened today. And even if Ye Tian told others, who would believe him?
Clearly, they were willing to throw away all dignity to achieve their goal—utterly shameless!
"The Demonic Flame Explosive Slash really is powerful… In that case, we'll attack together. Consider it a form of respect for your strength!"
With that, both Tathagata and the Jade Emperor lunged toward Ye Tian, one from the front and one from behind, launching a pincer attack at lightning speed!
