The Broken Ranker

Devours Myths

Chapter 247

Sata Wang (10)

It was at that moment that others realized the battlefield surrounding Son Wukong had become extraordinary.

“…What is this!?”

“The status…!”

“No way!!”

The Seven Great Sages, including Jiaoma Wang, stopped fighting the heavenly generals and hurriedly turned their gaze in that direction.

Golden lightning shooting vertically from the surface to the heavens.

Before that tremendous firepower that seemed ready to burn the world,

before that brilliant mass of light,

all the brothers clenched their fists tight.

[The Seven Great Sages greatly rejoice at their sworn brother’s revival!]

[The adaptation of the 【Journey to the West】 myth has begun. The ending is starting to be newly written.]

[The status of characters related to the myth is being restored.]

…

[Corrupted Great Demon King Jiaoma Wang has regained his divine status.]

[Great Sage Roc King has regained his divine status.]

…

[The broken heavenly tablets have been restored!]

…

[You have not yet regained your original complete status.]

[However, according to the adapted ending of 【Journey to the West】, you can now complete a new myth different from before.]

Revival.

And the restoration of divine status.

With those words alone, the Seven Great Sages could enjoy infinite joy…

The moment they had so longed for had finally arrived.

Of course, they hadn’t yet completely reached the level of the demon kings of the past who could make the heavens tense with their mere existence.

However,

the fact that they had regained their position in the Logos was most important.

Especially the message that they could newly write their myth was very encouraging.

It meant that depending on what they did going forward, they might be able to surpass not only their original status but perhaps even beyond that.

And it would have a positive impact on Wuyong Wang and Sata Wang, whose bodies were currently not intact.

“Kekekekek! What a cunning human, no, monkey-like fellow! Were you hiding this all along to surprise those guys? Even from this youngest disciple?”

Sha Wujing burst into laughter while looking at the sky that was now brilliantly dyed golden.

“Really! You’re not senior enough to lecture the Chosen One! The most devious one here is probably fourth senior brother!!”

[Golden Body Arhat Sha Wujing has regained his divine status!]

[Altar Cleansing Messenger Zhu Bajie has regained his divine status!]

…

Buddha light shot high from Sha Wujing’s body before slowly settling down.

At the same time, divine power, no, Buddha power surged within his body.

Now it seemed he could easily cast the remaining curse incantations that had been impossible due to insufficient status.

Zhu Bajie must also be feeling the changes in his body and smiling by now.

But what made Sha Wujing happiest was something else.

‘Master will be able to feel it too!! Kekekekek!’

It would have a positive impact on Xuanzang Tripitaka, who might be trapped somewhere and whom Lee Hyeon had gone to rescue.

“Now… it won’t be long before we four Dharma Kings gather in one place! How joyful this moment is!! Kekek!!”

How envious he had been when watching all the Seven Great Sages gather together.

But now he didn’t need to feel that way anymore.

The Four Dharma Kings would also have their complete formation.

[Golden Body Arhat Sha Wujing activates ‘Divine Authority: Crossing the Sea with Curse Incantations’!]

Paaaaat!

Sha Wujing constructed a massive dharma circle in the golden sky, filled with joy.

A giant dharma circle composed of ten thousand individual circles.

It was the power to bestow blessings on allies and curses on enemies.

“Come!! Days of old!”

With Sha Wujing’s great cry of joy,

Kukukukuku…!!

The sky began to tremble.

* * *

“What nonsense…!”

“…The sky, with Great Sage Equal to Heaven’s divine power.”

The battlefield on Bull Demon King’s side was equally bewildered.

[General Irang is shocked by the divine status recovery of the Seven Great Sages and Three Law Kings!]

[Leijinzi is greatly flustered by the demonic aura filling the dungeon!]

Especially General Irang and Leijinzi of the Three Divine Generals turned pale.

[Nezha and the 28 Constellations have been forcibly expelled from the battlefield!]

“…!”

“…!!”

It was because Nezha, who had definitely said he would handle Son Wukong, had been defeated instead.

The fact that even the 28 Constellations representing the heavenly generals were defeated

meant that Son Wukong’s status recovery speed was faster than they had anticipated.

One exchange.

That formidable force had been swept away in an instant.

This meant one thing.

‘Son Wukong…!’

‘Has regained the majesty of the Great Sage Equal to Heaven from long ago…!!’

Though he hadn’t regained his prime from when he achieved Victorious Fighting Buddha,

it meant he had regained the level of Great Sage Equal to Heaven from when he once threatened the 【Heavenly Court】 just before being sealed under Five Elements Mountain.

That alone was a bewildering situation for the generals of the 【Heavenly Court】.

[Divine society 【Deva】 is relieved that they did not participate in the battle.]

[Divine society 【Olympus】 seeks to newly assess the changed power of the Seven Great Sages.]

[Divine society 【Asgard】 urgently makes Son Wukong’s revival a major agenda item.]

…

[【Malach】’s scribe, Metatron, carefully observes the drastically fluctuating balance of the scales.]

[【Le Infernal】 falls silent.]

…

[The demonic society, 【Asura】, rejoices as they realize their choice was not wrong.]

…

[The dragon society, 【Daeva】, makes a certain decision for the first time in a long while under their leader’s command.]

…

[The Jade Emperor falls silent.]

『….』

The Bull Demon King paused his battle with General Irang and Leijinzi, gazing up at the golden waves that filled the sky.

『…So it comes to this in the end. Youngest Brother. In the end, you’re the one who accomplishes it.』

A voice tinged with love and hate deep within his tone.

And then,

Patsutsutsutsu-

His entire body was soon enveloped in the white light that symbolized him, and both his size and presence began to grow.

Kwadududeuk!!

At the same time, black flames rising from the underworld began to wrap around him from beneath his feet.

As the white light and black flames mixed together,

the White Tiger Demon King also unleashed a tremendous storm of presence,

no less than Son Wukong’s, or perhaps even greater.

[Oma King has regained his divine status!]

[His presence casts a shadow over the surface.]

The Bull Demon King’s size had now grown so large that his head touched the sky as he looked down upon the earth.

A monster with a head as large as Mount Tai, a gaping mouth like a bloody lake, and two eyes like embedded sun and moon.

Exactly as described in 【Journey to the West】, with a size exceeding 10,000 zhang (30 kilometers).

A primordial beast stood right there.

Even General Irang and Leijinzi looked utterly insignificant before him.

『Originally, these lowly beings couldn’t even meet my gaze, yet just because I was slightly injured, they dare to block my path so insolently.』

The Bull Demon King roughly snorted.

It was like a typhoon, and General Irang and Leijinzi could barely maintain their balance.

『Get lost. And bring the Jade Emperor before my eyes.』

Kwaaaaaa!!

The Bull Demon King flashed his and violently brought down Pangu, which had grown as large as his own body.

Clouds scattered and the atmosphere shattered visibly to the naked eye.

“…!!”

“…!!!”

General Irang and Leijinzi urgently soared into the sky with their subordinate heavenly generals, trying to block it, but,

Kwakwakwakwakwang!!

Ururureung-

They were blown away in one strike without properly blocking it.

And soon the axe blade of Pangu reached where the Jade Emperor was…!

The moment the Jade Emperor’s eyes bulged with annoyance,

“This path… you cannot… pass…!!”

Guard captain Taktap Heavenly King Ijeong leaped forward and blocked the assault with his pagoda.

Kwaaaaang!!

Though the pagoda was insignificantly small compared to the enormously grown Pangu,

in reality, that pagoda was also a treasure that would never lose to Pangu.

[Taktap Heavenly King]

His real name is Ijeong. Also called Damun Heavenly King, who guards the north among the Four Heavenly Kings.

Originally a disciple of Yeondeung Daoist, he has a dull personality but is a fierce general with outstanding martial prowess capable of subduing yakshas and rakshasas.

-Origin: Myth ‘Investiture of the Gods’

[Ruyi Golden Pagoda]

A treasure given directly by Buddha Shakyamuni to Taktap Heavenly King, who had a poor relationship with his third son Nezha, so they could reconcile.

It contains Buddha Shakyamuni’s relics within, boasting tremendous value.

-Origin: Myth ‘Journey to the West’

Moreover, Taktap Heavenly King could be considered the foremost in martial strength within 【Heaven’s Teaching】.

Kwakwakwakwakwa…!!

The shockwave generated by the collision of Pangu and the pagoda overturned the surrounding earth’s surface, causing upheaval.

But even during this process, the Jade Emperor still did not unfold his crossed arms.

He only raised his head to steadily watch the Bull Demon King’s terrifying eyes.

Afterward, in the tense struggle between Taktap Heavenly King and the Bull Demon King, neither giving an inch,

Paaaaat!

Suddenly, a new presence was detected behind Taktap Heavenly King.

“This is…!”

『Where are you looking!!』

Taktap Heavenly King reacted belatedly in that direction, but the force contained in Pangu was too tremendous to spare any attention.

The muscles in Taktap Heavenly King’s legs and arms swelled taut as if about to burst.

And….

“Finally, we meet, Jade Emperor. I heard you were dying from longing to see me all this time. Have you been well?”

“Great Sage Equal to Heaven…!!”

The Jade Emperor had to unfold his arms for the first time.

A pair of golden lights cutting through the dust clouds.

Son Wukong was smiling coldly with his white hair flowing long.

“I was going crazy from wanting to see you all this time. I hope you felt the same way.”

Kururureung!!

Once again, the Ruyi Jingu Bang flashed with golden radiance as lightning struck.

The technique that had blown away Nezha and the Twenty-Eight Constellations in one strike.

It was Evil Immediate Execution.

Flash!

That technique contained power that even the Jade Emperor could not handle carelessly.

Originally, the Jade Emperor was closer to a scholar than a warrior in nature.

Because of this, he had to endure several humiliating situations against Son Wukong in the distant past.

However,

that didn’t mean he was weak.

The Jade Emperor was also an ambitious one who had pulled down the previous emperor, Hocheonsangje, from the throne and taken his place.

With the addition of faith from the main deity, his abilities were much different from before.

The Jade Emperor’s hands flashed with jade-colored radiance.

Hwaaaak!

His twin palms shattered space as they collided with the Ruyi Jingu Bang’s lightning.

[The Jade Emperor casts ‘Divine Authority: Divine Punishment of Karmic Fire’!]

The power that Lee Hyeon had once collected during the Lightning Collector event.

It was a punishing lightning bolt created by burning the karma of humans.

Kwa-kwa-kwang!!

The moment the golden Lightning Bolt was blocked for the first time,

Paaaat-

Son Wukong suddenly let go of the Ruyi Jingu Bang and instantly closed the distance with the Jade Emperor.

“…!?”

A completely unexpected move.

In that instant, above the Jade Emperor’s widened pupils, Son Wukong’s fiercely grinning face appeared.

“Clench your teeth tight. You’re supposed to be an emperor after all, so it’d be unseemly if your front teeth fell out, wouldn’t it?”

“…!!”

Before the Jade Emperor could say anything, Son Wukong’s fist slammed into his face.

Paaaak!!

With the sound of three or four teeth shattering, the Jade Emperor rolled pathetically across the ground.
