The Tao Tie slowly approached the Red-Butt Macaque while carrying the Desolate Tower, with the Old Ghost King closely following behind, lending support to Tao Tie. The Desolate Tower resisted the might of the Vajra Staff, and the two sides drew closer, signaling the start of a true battle.
Bang! Bang! Bang...
Three figures darted through the starry Void, resembling shooting stars. Even the powerful beings of the Sage Realm could only see the light of these meteors, unable to witness the battle within.
In an instant, they unleashed countless attacks. The aging Red-Butt Macaque found it increasingly difficult to defend against four hands with just two fists, and began to struggle.
The awaited reinforcements had yet to arrive.
The Red-Butt Macaque felt that help would not come. For the first time, he let out a thunderous roar that shattered distant stars in the Void. This caused both Tao Tie and Old Ghost King to retreat.
"Have you reached your ultimate transcendence?" Old Ghost King exclaimed in surprise.
Ultimate transcendence in the Quasi-Emperor Realm was akin to burning one's lifespan and Cultivation. For a brief moment, it granted power nearly equal to that of an Emperor. However, this path was doomed to end in death unless one could break through to the Emperor Realm before perishing.
After achieving ultimate transcendence, the power of the Red-Butt Macaque multiplied a hundredfold, his momentum unmatched. He took the initiative to strike, sweeping his staff towards Tao Tie, severing one of its arms.
"Old monkey, are you forcing me into ultimate transcendence? Come on, it's all an Apocalyptic War anyway; who’s afraid of whom?"
Furious, Tao Tie also chose ultimate transcendence, unleashing a terrifying aura. His severed right arm regrew instantly.
"Kill."
With the Desolate Tower in hand, Tao Tie confronted the Red-Butt Macaque. This was akin to a battle between Emperors. The Old Ghost King, not having reached ultimate transcendence, could only stand back and watch from a distance.
In the Quasi-Emperor Realm, even being brushed by an Emperor's residual might would result in utter annihilation.
The indescribably terrifying battle began, the true Battle of the Emperors. A Quasi-Emperor Realm could shatter stars with a single strike. However, the might of an Emperor could crush stars merely with its residual power.
After both had reached their utmost sublimation, they ventured deeper into the cosmos. Neither wished to destroy the Desolate Star. The Red-Butt Macaque was reluctant, while Tao Tie was eager to savor the delicious beings that resided there. Countless lives thrived in that place, tender and delectable.
This was a horrific battle, one that no one could witness. Even the Old Ghost King could not observe without reaching ultimate sublimation.
In the boundless darkness, the two appeared like twin suns. Wherever they fought, they illuminated a portion of the universe. Endless blood flowed from their bodies, all Imperial Blood.
Ultimately, Tao Tie was no match; several large holes appeared on its body, a sight too gruesome to behold. Its towering form seemed as if it could shatter at any moment.
“Old Ghost King, if you do not reach ultimate sublimation soon, I will withdraw,” Tao Tie roared, aware that it could not stand alone against such an opponent. This old monkey was far too formidable.
No wonder the Divine Monkey clan was known as descendants of war gods. The Red-Butt Macaque was not even the most powerful among the four Divine Monkeys in terms of combat strength. If one were to rank them, the Spirit Stone Monkey and Six-Eared Macaque would certainly be at the forefront.
If the Red-Butt Macaque was already this strong, how terrifying must the Spirit Stone Monkey and Six-Eared Macaque be? They truly were beasts that could rival an Emperor.
“Here it comes.” The Old Ghost King arrived in the depths of the universe and chose to reach ultimate sublimation as well. They intended to usher in the apocalypse; it would either be an Emperor or death.
The Old Ghost King had little lifespan left and could no longer sustain another cycle.
The Red-Butt Macaque and Tao Tie had been battling for days, both drenched in blood. Tao Tie bore the brunt of the injuries, its body on the verge of exploding at any moment. The Old Ghost King descended and stood beside Tao Tie.
“Why did you only come now?” Tao Tie complained.
“Choosing ultimate sublimation was unavoidable. I did not wish for this,” the Old Ghost King replied honestly.
“That old monkey is running out of strength; we must join forces quickly. Don’t give it a moment to breathe,” Tao Tie said fiercely.
“Alright, you rest first; let me take over.”
The Old Ghost King struck, unleashing countless black chains that flew toward the Red-Butt Macaque. Just as these chains floated over the head of Tao Tie, they suddenly changed direction, resembling venomous snakes that bit into Tao Tie's entire body.
"Ah..."
Tao Tie let out a painful cry, feeling the Essence Blood draining from his body. He glared at the Old Ghost King and said, "You... have betrayed me."
"What is loyalty? Can it make me stronger? Can it grant me immortality?" The Old Ghost King sneered, activating his devouring technique with terrifying speed to absorb Tao Tie's Imperial Blood and Cultivation. The towering figure of Tao Tie rapidly shrank. Wrinkles began to appear on his skin, and a desolate aura surged around him.
In the blink of an eye, the Old Ghost King completely absorbed Tao Tie. This was a plan he had long been brewing. Now, Tao Tie resembled a deflated ball of Evil Qi, collapsing to the ground without the strength to stand, floating in the cosmos.
"Old Ghost King, I will never let you go," Tao Tie gritted his teeth.
The Old Ghost King ignored him and licked his lips, saying, "At our Foundation level, only Imperial Blood can make us feel our Cultivation advancing. The taste of Imperial Blood is truly delightful."
Tao Tie furiously retorted, "Old Ghost, return my Cultivation to me; if I don't kill you, I swear I will not be human."
"Annoying. I was going to spare your life."
With a flick of his sleeve, the Old Ghost King unleashed a terrifying aura that obliterated Tao Tie's very essence.
A Quasi-Emperor Realm powerhouse, the leader of the four great fierce beasts—Tao Tie—met his end at the hands of an ally. He died with unclosed eyes, yet there was no chance for revival.
The Old Ghost King gazed at the spot where Tao Tie had vanished and murmured, "Only by devouring you can I truly kill that old monkey. That is what we call collaboration."
Then he turned his gaze toward the Red-Butt Macaque, his eyes glinting with cold light. "You are no match for me now. Offer up your Imperial Blood and Cultivation; become my stepping stone to greatness."
The Red-Butt Macaque remained unfazed by this sudden turn of events. Having survived for twenty thousand years thanks to the sealing array set by her husband, she had evaded the Earth Rules and lived on. What kind of situations had she not encountered?
The Old Ghost King took the Desolate Tower in his right hand, a move he had long planned, having coveted the incomplete Imperial Artifact of the Demon Sect for quite some time. Today, with everything in his grasp, the Old Ghost King let out a triumphant roar.
The Red-Butt Macaque wore a serious expression. In a one-on-one fight, he could easily win. Even against two opponents, he could still manage. However, if those two enemies combined their strength, he would not stand a chance.
The Red-Butt Macaque looked up towards the distance. That was the direction of Desolate Star, where his homeland lay, where his children were. Perhaps this would be the last glimpse he would have.
Perhaps she would never see that helper arrive.
"Come on," the Red-Butt Macaque said resolutely, gripping the Vajra Staff. At her age, she had long seen through life and death. The only thing she regretted was missing her children.
"I know you won't surrender easily. Once I swallow you, I will truly be invincible in the universe. What is Cloud Mother? What is Pujue Temple? They will all become stepping stones on my path to becoming an emperor."
The Old Ghost King gripped the Desolate Tower with both hands, unleashing a domineering force that radiated unmatched power across the cosmos.
