As Jiang Chen forms the seal, the Great Sun spins, enveloping Sun Wukong. The Sun True Fire gushes out, entering his body through his pores, burning his internal organs and flesh.
However, Sun Wukong’s physical body is incredibly strong. The Sun True Fire can hardly hurt him; the flames cleanse the impurities within his body, not only causing him no harm but making him even stronger.
This is exactly what Jiang Chen aimed for; using the power of Sun True Fire to refine away the force in Sun Wukong’s body and help him return to normal.
But, under the refinement of the Sun True Fire, Sun Wukong’s power became stronger and stronger. The Great Sun formed by Jiang Chen was gradually unable to suppress him.
Sun Wukong began struggling within the Great Sun. His violent power overflowed, causing the Great Sun to sway disconcertedly.
A thought crossed his mind, and Jiang Chen formed the Fusang Stamp, projecting a giant Fusang tree, which merges with the shadow tree in the Great Sun.
In a flash, the power of the Great Sun increased threefold, once again suppressing Sun Wukong.
Next, Jiang Chen’s hands continued to move; the Golden Crow Stamp, the Great Sun Heavenly Dragon Stamp, the Sun Temple Stamp...one by one, related visions were condensed, making the power of the Great Sun even stronger.
With so many divine abilities being added, the Great Sun underwent transformation creating countless Innate Divine Patterns. Each of which was formed by a high-octane condensation of Sun True Fire, carrying the power that could scorch the sky and boil the sea.
The heat radiated by the Great Sun was terrifying, distorting the surrounding void, showing signs of melting like a candle.
A Great Sun slowly rose, illuminating the boundless void, subtly competing with the starlight.
"The divine power of Jiuchen is courageous and should be the best in Heaven Court!"
Above the Lingxiao Palace, the Jade Emperor watched this scene. Despite having mixed feelings, he showed a look of elation, praising loudly.
"Damn it, how can Jiang Chen be this strong? He’s merely in the middle of the Dao Monarch stage. Yet, his strength surpasses many who are at the completion stage of Dao Monarch. Even the ancient martial artists, whose strength far surpasses their peers, shouldn’t be this strong."
"How exactly did he practice?"
The Jade Emperor hadn’t expected Jiang Chen’s strength to be so formidable. Despite his intentional suppression, Jiang Chen still easily overpowered Sun Wukong.
Even if Jiang Chen was an Innate Dao Monarch, he was still inconsequential before the Jade Emperor.
The Jade Emperor didn’t want Jiang Chen to win, so Jiang Chen must lose!
Making up his mind, the Jade Emperor secretly increased the power of his divine abilities. In an instant, the pressure on Jiang Chen doubled, and his strength was reduced once more. Despite the aid of the Sun Star, it was becoming challenging to control Sun Wukong.
The immortals present were not blind; they noticed something was amiss with Jiang Chen. They assumed that after such a long battle, Jiang Chen was exhausting his energy.
Indeed, Jiang Chen’s current situation resembled that of someone running out of energy, causing everyone to misinterpret it.
In fact, they were astonished that Jiang Chen had held on until now before showing signs of exhaustion.
How deep was his foundation that he could launch hundreds of Supreme Divine Powers in one breath without getting winded?
If it was them, even if they knew these hundreds of Supreme Divine Powers, they couldn’t cast more than a few before running out of energy.
Perhaps, this was what it was like to be a supreme genius. His energy foundation was unfathomable and thus he could do things that ordinary people couldn’t.
However, despite being astounded, the immortals grew worried as Jiang Chen appeared to be running out of energy.
"This time, Emperor Lord is in danger."
"Who knows what kind of treasure that monster monkey has eaten? With inexhaustible energy and growing stronger, he seems invincible. However, Emperor Lord’s energy is gradually exhausting, and the power of his divine ability is weakening. If this continues, he will definitely lose!"
Whether the immortals were worried or not, Jiang Chen didn’t know. He cursed internally, blaming the person behind the scenes for helping Sun Wukong and suppressing his own power.
Suddenly, he bellowed, "There is a villain secretly aiding Sun Wukong and suppressing my power. This person clearly harbours ill intentions towards Heaven Court. Everyone, help me take down Sun Wukong first, then we can combine forces to find that villain."
Upon hearing this, the immortals realised that Jiang Chen was not running out of energy, but his strength was being suppressed. With this new information, the immortals became surprised rather than pleased.
If they hadn’t been concerned about their dignity, they would have gasped in surprise, second-guessing their assumptions about how powerful Jiang Chen was.
He was truly terrifying.
Was Jiang Chen’s energy truly inexhaustible? Even with such consumption, his energy level hasn’t decreased pack, which was too terrifying.
For a moment, the immortals’ caution towards Jiang Chen escalated.
Not only was his power colossal, but his energy was also robust, and endless. Unless someone had absolute power to crush him, they shouldn’t be at odds with such a person.
Otherwise, in the event of a fight, they could get exhausted to death.
Although they were thinking this, the gods acted swiftly. All the Deities who had achieved the status of Great Luo Golden Immortal set off to assist Jiang Chen in suppressing Sun Wukong.
