Great Demon Sun Wukong-Chapter 290 - 279 Seven-Star Dragon Abyss
Feeling the icy long sword in his chest and the slowly dissipating vitality, the fourth brother wanted to say something, but his mouth opened a few times without emitting any sound. His eyes stared deathly at Wan Jun before him, filled with unwillingness! No matter how, he could not have imagined that after a lifetime of killing, he would die at the hands of his own brother. Though by now he had realized that the third brother who killed him was an impostor and he also understood why Wan Jun had killed the second and the fifth, there was no use for such knowledge anymore.
"So you’re also fake, heh heh, looks like my luck isn’t too bad, both people I killed were impostors!" Having said that, Wan Jun raised the demonic Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword in his hand, and said to the third brother, "You’re quite good too, managing to kill the fourth brother with one strike. However, today, you too will die!" With those words spoken, Wan Jun suddenly turned his head and shouted to the two groups beside him, "Second brother, fifth brother, third brother, don’t you understand what’s happening yet? There’s only one real you in this world, get moving!"
After speaking, his figure flashed and he was already at the third brother’s side, with four stars suddenly lighting up on the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword in his hand. As the four stars lit up, the originally pitch-black blade of the demonic sword suddenly flashed with a silver-white glow. This glow left the sword body and then viciously circled back, shooting towards the back of the third brother’s head and heart.
But the impostor third brother reacted quickly, and upon blocking Wan Jun’s demonic sword, he suddenly pulled out a palm-sized shield from within his chest. The shield swelled rapidly in the wind, and by the time those four stars were about to collide with him, the shield had grown to the size of an adult, completely protecting the impostor third brother.
Nonetheless, the four stars collided without a moment’s hesitation, instantly making the third brother stagger. His right hand, which was blocking Wan Jun’s demonic sword, started shaking uncontrollably and could no longer withstand the strike from the demonic sword above.
But even when the demonic sword brushed aside the third brother’s long sword, it didn’t harm him. Because the third brother’s body suddenly twisted like a snake, performing a move that a normal human could never do, avoiding Wan Jun’s strike. Under normal circumstances, or if Wan Jun had been using the Sword Control Technique, the third brother might have completely dodged the attack, but now Wan Jun was in a sword controlling person state, wholly allowing the demonic sword in his hand to act autonomously.
Therefore, when the sword missed, the rolling Demonic Qi on the sword unexpectedly transformed into another blade, striking directly on Wan Jun’s left arm. Although this sword made of Demonic Qi looked like a mere black mist, when it sliced across the third brother’s left arm, the flesh it had touched turned to stark white bone.
"Blood consumed, flesh devoured, leaving only bones to roam the world!" Suddenly, Wan Jun muttered something that seemed like a verse or perhaps a sword technique. As his words rang out, all seven stars on the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword flashed simultaneously, and then the Demonic Qi on the sword blade instantly converged into a massive sword nearly seven or eight meters long.

The moment this colossal sword formed, it unleashed a Cross Slash, instantly sending a cross-shaped Sword Qi piercing through the third brother’s body. And the third brother, in futility, used the shield in his hand to protect his front, still deludedly hoping to block the cross slash of the gigantic Demonic Qi sword. But after the Demonic Qi had passed through his body, the third brother had wholly turned into a skeleton.
At this time, with the second Smoke Bomb explosion, the four individuals who had appeared beside Wan Jun had all died. Aside from the fourth brother, the remaining three were impostors. After their death, their bodies had all turned into large snakes, identical to the ones they had previously slain.
And the snake that had taken the form of the third brother was now nothing but scattered snake bones on the ground.
On the other side, the original ten individuals had already plunged into a free-for-all fight, but four stood apart from the rest, namely the two identical Wan Juns, along with two identical fourth brothers. The remaining six were paired off, fighting each other fiercely: second brother against second brother, third brother against third brother, fifth brother against fifth brother.
And when Wan Jun saw only those six standing together, he couldn’t help but be surprised. Could it be that these transformed snakes had such a grasp on human nature already? Wan Jun knew that the reason the doppelgängers that resembled him and the fourth brother did not join the fray was because they feared exposing their identities—not the identities of the four of them, but rather those who were engaged in battle.
After all, the identities of three people were still uncertain for Wan Jun. However, once they intervened, Wan Jun would instantly be able to tell who was real and who was fake. If they assisted their own kind against the actual Second, Third, and Fifth, the outcome would be quite obvious. But if they helped the true trio fight against their own, and they used their full strength, those three comrades would surely be defeated quickly, perhaps even killed. On the other hand, if they didn’t use their full strength and just went through the motions, then Wan Jun would certainly see through it, and the result would be the same either way.
Therefore, the four of them didn’t make a move. As long as they refrained from acting, Wan Jun couldn’t judge who was genuine. Moreover, they still had one last trick up their sleeve. Although Wan Jun knew this, he didn’t have any good solutions. The transformations of these great snakes were truly divine; even he couldn’t spot a single flaw. The reason he was able to strike and instantly kill the impostor Second and Fifth earlier was entirely due to good luck. At the moment of his next strike, Wan Jun was prepared to annihilate all fourteen individuals.
"Kill them all, real or fake," that was Wan Jun’s thought, the most straightforward and effective.
Looking again at the six people fiercely fighting, even if they were impostors, Wan Jun still couldn’t find any flaws in their battle. Since he couldn’t discern, he simply stopped watching. Rather than struggling to distinguish the real from the fake, it was better to first eliminate the four who were definitely impostors.
After that, whether his comrades emerged victorious or the impostors did, Wan Jun’s burden would be greatly reduced.
One against four, even though among those four were two who looked exactly like his brothers, and the other two resembled himself, Wan Jun still charged at them without hesitation. However, just as he was halfway there, he came to an abrupt halt, his eyes revealing a look of extreme shock that hadn’t appeared in a long time. He suddenly saw the two "Wan Juns" who looked just like him simultaneously raise their Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Swords with Demonic Qi swirling around the Sword Bodies.
In the end, when Wan Jun saw those two individuals also entering a state of Sword Control Technique, he was so surprised he didn’t know what to say. If impersonating his appearance was due to an extremely clever Illusion Transformation, then what was this? An Illusion Technique? No, the powerful Demonic Qi and the faint resonance he felt with them were telling Wan Jun that everything before him was real.
The two impostors had actually managed, with counterfeit Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Swords, to enter the state of Sword Control Technique. Observing the roiling Demonic Qi and the dark shapes on their bodies, Wan Jun truly didn’t want to believe it, nor dared to believe it.
Sword Control Technique, while not an extremely profound move, can generally be performed by anyone immersed in the Sword Dao and who has some insight into the sword. The only difference is the level one can achieve while in the state of Sword Control Technique.
Being able to utilize Sword Control Technique and then become Possessed was something only he, with the Demonic Sword Seven-Star Dragon Abyss, could do. Yet, everything before him told him that the two impostors had indeed entered this state as well.
"You two impostors are courting death. Sword Control Technique is not a move you should dare to meddle with! It was the first sword technique taught to me by master!" Roaring, Wan Jun suddenly hurled the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword into the air, then abruptly sat down cross-legged, hands together, while chanting, "Seven-Star Dragon Abyss, Seven Stars into Dragon, Soul Snatch, Bone Separation!"
His face twisted nearly ferociously and his teeth clenched, the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword, after being tossed into the air, erupted with an even greater surge of Demonic Qi. The pitch-black Demonic Qi quickly took the form of a thirty-meter-long giant dragon. At the same time, stars glinting with cold light appeared at the dragon’s eyes, horns, neck, waist, and tail.
This demonic dragon, having just formed, circled in midair before charging towards the four impostors!
