Chapter 43: Brothers' Sparring

  It's been two hours, and the crowd of Leiwei brothers watching the battle in the sky above the Water Cavern had their necks aching from looking up, yet still neither Leihao nor Sun Wukong showed any signs of giving up.

  This is Lei Hao's first battle after advancing to the rank of Demon King, and during the battle, he was like a sponge, constantly learning from Sun Wukong's fighting style.

  Sun Wukong's promotion to the rank of Demon King has been a long time coming, and with his exceptionally high combat talent, his martial arts skills are on par with those of Lei Hao, who has been waging war for many years. Even if he is slightly inferior in terms of ultimate moves, the difference can be ignored due to the suppression of levels.

  Lei Hao has been fighting and making progress, from being initially passive and beaten to now being able to counterattack while being beaten. This progress is not insignificant, considering that Sun Wukong and Lei Hao are not on the same level, with Sun Wukong being a Golden Immortal and Lei Hao still being a Heavenly Immortal.

  Their cultivation seemed to differ by only one level, but the gap in their actual strength was beyond reason.

  Of course, if it wasn't for Sun Wukong constantly suppressing his magical powers, Lei Hao would absolutely not have been so relaxed. At the very least, Lei Hao himself was quite clear that if Sun Wukong were to use his true form, he wouldn't be able to withstand a single move, and his chances of dodging would be infinitely close to zero.

  Sun Wukong was getting more and more comfortable with his blows, apart from the Ox King he had befriended last year, Lei Hao was the first demon to be able to fight him for so long without using his full strength.

  Sun Wukong's rod came crashing down heavily on Lei Hao's sword, unleashing a massive force that had never been seen before, causing Lei Hao's hands to go numb. He retreated dozens of feet back while holding the Dragon Slaying Sword. This one strike made Lei Hao think to himself: "It has begun."

  Yes, although they had been fighting for half a day, Lei Hao was still very clear that he could do so easily, and Sun Wukong took care of his poor strength, fearing that he would hurt him. Probably this guy hasn't even brought out half of his strength, and this seemingly brilliant battle can only be considered a warm-up exercise at most.

  Lei Hao understood that Sun Wukong was showing consideration for his face, so he said nothing would work if he didn't bring out the strength worthy of Sun Wukong's full power, this monkey would never fully exert himself.

  High up in the air, Lei Hao and Sun Wukong were separated by dozens of feet, facing each other from a distance. After fighting for so long, the two brothers still had red faces and weren't panting, at their level, it was normal to fight for ten or eight days without stopping.

  At this time, Sun Wukong's two eyes shone brightly, and this fight was too comfortable. This kind of hard-hitting combat method made him almost unable to suppress the surging magic power in his body.

  When Lei Hao saw the hairs on Sun Wukong's head standing up like steel needles, and his body flashing with a bright and dark light, he knew that this monkey was thoroughly excited.

  "Next, I'm going all out!" Monkey King Sun Wukong said with a grin, shouldering his golden-hooped staff.

  "Come on." Lei Hao didn't say much, gripping his Dragon Slayer tightly and assuming a defensive stance.

  Lei Hao's voice had just fallen when Sun Wukong shook the Golden Cudgel in his hand, like a flash of lightning that suddenly appeared in front of Lei Hao. The cudgel seemed to have no technique at all, but it was swung down with great force. As the Golden Cudgel swept through the air, it brought up a dark crack. Although this crack only flashed by for an instant, it made Lei Hao's heart tighten. "This dead monkey... now he's really furious."

  Lei Hao was very clear what that crack was, it was a trace of space being torn apart.

  The Golden Cudgel moved at incredible speed, exerting immense pressure that compressed the space around Lei Hao into a vacuum state. Lei Hao gritted his teeth and summoned all his strength to slash at the Golden Cudgel with his Dragon-Slaying Knife. The black, gleaming blade of the knife struck the dull, lightless Golden Cudgel with a loud, metallic crash.

  Then Lei Hao was blown away by the giant force of the Golden Cudgel like a baseball, and before he could steady himself, Sun Wukong appeared in front of him again, still with a simple and straightforward blow, Lei Hao was forced to grit his teeth and slash at the Golden Cudgel again. Then Lei Hao flew backward at an even faster speed, still within one-thousandth of a second, Sun Wukong's figure reappeared in front of Lei Hao like a cannonball, with another simple yet strange rhythm-filled blow, Lei Hao spat out a mouthful of blood from his chest and swung his knife at the Golden Cudgel again...

  Under Sun Wukong's hands, Lei Hao was like an infant with no resistance at all. Wherever Sun Wukong wanted him to fly, he would fly in that direction. In his heart, Lei Hao secretly guessed that if it were the enemy, it wouldn't be as simple as flying back and forth, they would probably have been smashed into pulp long ago.

  Sun Wukong's stick technique, which contains a strange rhythm, is too disgusting. Coupled with his extremely fast speed, every stick hits the node of Lei Hao's rotating force, making it impossible for him to launch an effective attack, and he can only be beaten passively all the time.

  The crowd of Lei Wei brothers in front of the Water Cave were all wide-eyed at this time, what did they see? The head of their invincible leader was now like a pinecone on Mount Kan Yuan, being beaten back and forth without any resistance.

  The little fox who knew Leihao the best looked at Leihao in the sky with no resistance, and a worried expression flashed across her gentle eyes. "Head, head won't... again..." The little fox didn't want to think about it anymore, she really hoped he was wrong. But she really wasn't the one who knew Leihao the best.

  In mid-air, Lei Hao was constantly being knocked back and forth, spitting out a mouthful of blood foam as his face began to show a crazed expression. He had been struck, and he thought that as long as Sun Wukong didn't reveal his true form as the Explosive Ape, even if he went all out, he would still have some strength left for a final fight; even if he lost, Sun Wukong definitely wouldn't win easily.

  This is the confidence he has gained from growing from a penniless little monster to a great monster who can shake the entire Proud Country with just one foot. But the current situation has hit him hard, and it's far beyond what he imagined, to the point where he can't accept it.

  Lei Hao, with Lei Hao's pride, although it was just a spar between brothers, but if he lost so easily, it would be no less than a crushing defeat for him. "In that case, let's play a big one together." Lei Hao's heart wildly shouted.

  Only to see Lei Hao swing his butcher's knife, forcibly stopping the uncontrollable body shape, and at the same time a violent aura like that of the ancient Thunder God burst out from Lei Hao's body. This aura made Sun Wukong's heart feel a chill. Forcibly stopping the body shape that was rushing towards Lei Hao, the horizontal stick looked sternly at Lei Hao in front.

  After this fierce aura appeared, a 'cracking' sound like shattering porcelain came from Leihao's physical body. It was as if the substantial aura burst out and blasted many hair-sized spatial cracks around Leihao, causing the space beside him to darken. And on Leihao's face were ferocious expressions, clearly he was not relaxed at all.

  "Monkeys, be careful." Lei Hao shouted with his bloody mouth wide open. After hearing this, Sun Wukong gripped the Golden Cudgel tightly with both hands, and a serious meaning also appeared in his divine eyes.

  After drinking, Lei Hao slowly raised the Dragon Slayer, the black and shiny Dragon Slayer continuously emitted a series of mournful sounds. A wave of purple, jade-like spiritual energy burst out from Lei Hao's palm, quickly enveloping the entire Dragon Slayer. Lei Hao's face became even more ferocious, with two long fangs protruding from the corners of his mouth. The pair of bull horns on his head curved at an even more terrifying angle.

  Lei Hao exerted himself to the utmost, slowly and laboriously wielding his knife as he chopped outwards. At the same time, he let out a loud roar of "Break the Waves". In an instant, a long purple blade aura that was over fifty zhang in length enveloped Tulong, forming a gigantic knife that was over fifty zhang in length. This massive blade aura was extremely calm and beautiful, just like a fully bloomed poppy flower, quietly opening with a mesmerizing beauty that captivated the heart, without any sharp or dangerous aura.

  However, this giant knife made Sun Wukong's back hair stand on end, and his hands holding the Golden Hoop Rod also sweated slightly. He felt a sense of danger he had never experienced before from this giant knife, which made him almost want to flash away with a筋斗 cloud.

  However, he forcibly endured it. Leihao had his pride and Sun Wukong also had his own pride. No matter what time it was, he was unwilling to let go of the tightly gripped Golden Cudgel and flee without a fight.

  Many times, these two brothers were surprisingly alike.

  Sun Wukong waved his hands and the Golden Hoop Rod, which was originally two zhang long and thick as a bowl mouth, instantly transformed into a giant hammer that was fifty zhang long, with one end thick and the other end thin.

  "Look cool!" Sun Wukong let out a loud whoop and leapt high into the air, his massive golden staff spinning round and round as it came crashing down on Lei Hao's giant sword with a terrifying whistling sound.

  A huge metallic sound of "hong" formed a wave of visible shockwaves sweeping over Kanyuanshan and rushing into the distance.

  Time froze at the moment when the giant Jin Gu Bang and the giant Tulong clashed, Lei Hao and Sun Wukong stood facing each other from a distance, their clothes fluttering in the strong winds high up in the air. The crowd watching in front of the Water Cavern, who had just cheered for Lei Hao's mighty slash, also fell silent, all gazing quietly at the two tiny yet majestic figures suspended motionless in the sky.

  One breath, perhaps two, after the Dragon Slayer and the Golden Hoop Rod intersected at a point, a light spot lit up, a light spot that could not be distinguished as gold or purple. This light spot was like a spark still on the fuse of an explosive.

  Boom.

  In the midst of the thunderous roar, a sun seemed to appear between Lei Hao and Sun Wukong, illuminating an area of thousands of meters in all directions with a dazzling brightness like snow under moonlight.

  Lei Hao and Sun Wukong were swept up by the violent airflow like two shooting stars flying in opposite directions.

  "Great cow, you take a few brothers to find the beautiful monkey king, I'll go find the head." Although his heart was very flustered, Little Fox still arranged for Lei Da Niu to find Sun Wukong.

  Lei Da Niu nodded and pulled up several brothers, wielding Sun Wukong's flying direction and rushing away wildly.

  The little fox then took the remaining brothers and rushed wildly in the direction where Lei Hao had flown out.

  The messy Kanyuanshan mountain quickly calmed down, and the gloomy dark clouds within a radius of thousands of meters were scattered by the air flow. The warm sunshine in the afternoon shone on the Kanyuanshan Mountain, a peaceful and auspicious atmosphere.
