Great Demon Sun Wukong-Chapter 647 - 595: Qingming Ghost Possession_2
As the Clan Leader of the Annihilation Clan, Xi Zhao was responsible for guarding the Space Tunnel left by the Underworld Venerate in the Annihilation Demon Nation. At that time, that place was not yet called the Heritage Site, because the Underworld Venerate's original intent was not to pass on all his knowledge to someone else but merely to resurrect himself. After that great battle ended, the Underworld Venerate indeed lost, and he met a very miserable end. His physical body was split into nine parts, and along with his soul, was sealed within nine pieces of the Heavenly Stele. Following the commands left to him by the Underworld Venerate, Xi Zhao began to secretly prepare for the Underworld Venerate's resurrection in the shadows.
However, after Xi Zhao understood everything that the Underworld Venerate left in that space, he defied the Underworld Venerate's orders and developed his own grand ambition. He wanted to make the Underworld Venerate's power his own. Being a mere Domain Lord was not enough for Xi Zhao. Thus, Xi Zhao secretly contacted Ling Weiyang of the Myriad Demons Country, and together, they purified parts of the Underworld Venerate's soul, little by little, and split the Underworld Venerate's soul into eight pieces, which Ling Weiyang used to awaken the four emperors and four spirits from an ancient battle. To describe it as "awakening" was not accurate because Ling Weiyang utilized the purified soul of the Underworld Venerate to completely replace the souls of the four emperors and four spirits. Therefore, when they awakened, like newborns, they knew nothing, and only in this way could Ling Weiyang ensure their loyalty and the success of their eventual devouring of the four emperors and four spirits.
Having dealt with the remnants of the Underworld Venerate's soul, that space became Xi Zhao's personal property, from which he greatly benefited. However, because Xi Zhao's cultivation level was still shallow at that time, he was unable to obtain all of the Underworld Venerate's power, yet it still substantially increased Xi Zhao's strength to that of a Heavenly Venerate, and he even acquired the ability to split his strength into two.
But now, this place had been discovered, rendering all its concealment meaningless, and if they did not use that trump card, none of them would likely be able to leave this place alive. Only by staying alive could they have hope; in death, there was nothing left.
It was because of this decision that Xi Zhao, at this moment, was not too panicked. The only thing he was worried about was how he would find the opportunity to use that trump card. Ziling, who by now, had already lost the patience to continue the standoff, glanced at the still very composed Xi Zhao and said to Yue Huangquan and Pangu, "These eight people and that army of 120,000, leave them to me. The rest, you deal with. Make it quick. We'll unleash our full strength. Those Elixirs must have sensed something by now. Keep your cultivation levels a secret!"
No sooner had Ziling finished speaking than he charged toward the Nine Kirin. What were once Nine Kirin were now only Eight. After Ziling made his move, Yue Huangquan followed, with his target being Ling Weiyang and the four emperors and four spirits. Aware of the Five Emperors and Four Spirits of the Myriad Demons Country, he did not underestimate these nine individuals. Upon hearing Ziling's words, Ling Weiyang and Xi Zhao naturally heard them as well and, unwilling to sit and wait for death, they fiercely launched their attacks. But it was only after Xi Zhao took the Formless Divine Sword from Ling Weiyang's hand that he alone rushed toward Pangu, while Ling Weiyang, as the army of 120,000 Demon Clan soldiers swooped down, instead rushed toward the sky. It was finally time to use the power of the Five Emperors and Four Spirits, and it was unknown what level they would reach.

Yue Huangquan did not stop Ling Weiyang but glanced at Xi Zhao, then looked up to see Ling Weiyang transforming into a streak of cyan light, and the four emperors and four spirits in the sky also turned into beams of multicolored light. Soon, these nine glows fused together. "So this is the strongest trump card that Ling Weiyang prides himself on? Hehe, I'm really curious what kind of powerhouse will emerge in the end!" Watching the nine light spheres merge and slowly form a figure, Yue Huangquan's eyes were full of madness. Then, he slowly began to merge the Soul Suppressing Number Five, World Suppressing Stele, with his own body.
As the World Suppressing Stele fused with Yue Huangquan's body, his entire being underwent a significant transformation. Previously, Yue Huangquan had had the gentle and cultured appearance of a scholar, but now his muscles swelled noticeably, and he exuded a powerful presence. His hair, too, turned into a blood-red color, and many blood-red patterns that resembled various grimacing ghost faces and skulls appeared on his face and body. Yue Huangquan's expression had become ferocious and mad—this was the true visage of the Tyrant, a man insanely ferocious in battle.
On the other side, Xi Zhao, wielding the Formless Divine Weapon, flashed toward Pangu. However, Xi Zhao was only a half-step Heavenly Venerate at the time and was vastly outmatched by Pangu's strength. Even with his utmost effort in a strike, it was still completely blocked by Pangu. When Xi Zhao's Formless Divine Sword was parried by Pangu's Pulse Axe, Pangu let out a chuckle and then exerted force with both arms, converting the block into a chop, and actually cleaved Xi Zhao out of mid-air. The instant Xi Zhao was sent flying by Pangu's tremendous power, Pangu saw Xi Zhao's clothes in tatters and blood spurting from his body.
That axe strike was not simple—it was the purest Heavensplitting Strike from the Chaos Five Decisions. The Heavensplitting Strike, used by someone at the Heavenly Venerable Mid Grade, failed to slay Xi Zhao on the spot, which was a testament to the marvel of the Formless Divine Weapon; had it been someone else, they would have been utterly annihilated. Even so, Xi Zhao sustained severe injuries in an instant and fell directly into the lake below. Quickly, the water in the pool turned red—indicating how seriously Xi Zhao was hurt.
Just as Pangu was about to pursue his victory and finish off Xi Zhao, Qian Shang, Luo Chen, and others had already lunged at Pangu. Pangu watched these five coldly, especially when his gaze landed on Luo Chen—it flickered with a tinge of reluctance and struggle.
In fact, he had already heard about Qian Shang and Luo Chen's betrayal from Jue Luan, and he had seen the two of them earlier and even had a probing exchange with them. When Pangu realized that every attack from Qian Shang and Luo Chen was intended to be fatal, he knew these two had indeed betrayed the Genesis Divine Nation and, therefore, they both must die!
