The Western Heavenly King is unable to escape due to the suppression of the Nine Nether Soul-Seizing Spear, and the Nine Nether Soul-Seizing Spear is also unable to leave due to the suppression of the Western Heavenly King. Moreover, in order to suppress the Western Heavenly King, it has been constantly consuming its own divine power. Now, its divine power is exhausted, and it hastily chooses a master in an attempt to kill the Western Heavenly King, which has completely trapped itself in a predicament. If it fails, the Western Heavenly King will break free, and it will be suppressed by the Western Heavenly King in return. Moreover, if the Western Heavenly King recovers its full strength in the future, it can even forcibly make the spear recognize it as its master.

Comparing the two, the Nine Nether Soul-Seizing Spear is actually at a disadvantage now.

"Hoo!" Wan Jin Kui took a deep breath and then exhaled. He gripped his long sword and suddenly charged towards He Wen.

Upon seeing this, Gu Yu frowned sharply. If things were to turn out this way, things would not develop as he had envisioned, and instead become extremely bad.

He couldn't handle just one Western Heavenly King, and now there's Wan Jin Kui too. It's truly a cruel twist of fate!

boom…………

The moment Wan Jin Kui thrust at He Wen, the Nine Nether Soul-Seizing Spear trembled, forming another dark shield that clashed with Wan Jin Kui's longsword.

The Western Heavenly King watched this scene with smug satisfaction. When Wan Jin Kui broke through the Nine Nether Soul-Seizing Spear's defense, that would be his turn to make his move. At that time, He Wen would die, and Wan Jin Kui would also die.

puff…………

He Wen convulsed in pain and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Seeing this, Gu Yu could no longer wait. His divine and demonic power surged forth, and a wooden sword appeared in his hand.

"Open Heaven." Gray qi instantly spread out, and a blade of qi swept towards Wan Jin Kui, who was focused on attacking He Wen.

"Hmm?" The Western Heavenly King's expression changed upon sensing Gu Yu's sudden outburst. What the hell was going on? Even if his domain wasn't as powerful as before, it was still a domain! It was one thing for someone with a trace of divine power to be unsuppressed, but now another one had appeared. Could it be that because he had been suppressed for so long, everyone outside had acquired divine power? However, what Gu Yu possessed wasn't divine power, but rather a feeling that the Western Heavenly King recognized.

At this moment, Wan Jin Kui felt the sudden blade energy coming from behind him, and his expression changed drastically. He had been on guard against the Western Heavenly King, but he had not been on guard against Gu Yu. After all, no one could be immune to suppression within the domain, and he did not need to worry about anything else.

But this sudden turn of events caught him off guard, and he was filled with utter disbelief. In a hurry, he turned around and drew his sword to defend himself.

The next second, Wan Jin Kui was like a cannonball, directly smashing into the dark shield released by the Nine Nether Soul-Seizing Spear.

boom…………

The dark shield suddenly emitted a shockwave, and Wan Jinkui was like a ping-pong ball, hit against the wall and bounced away. After regaining his balance, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and his whole body was in bad shape. He stared at Gu Yu with a vicious look, "Damn it, how dare you ambush me!"

At this moment, Gu Yu stood in front of He Wen, his body constantly emanating divine and demonic power, making him appear like a demon god.

"This is..." The Western Heavenly King looked at Gu Yu, his expression changing repeatedly, his eyes filled with shock and fear.

In his memory, he had the honor of seeing a person who truly stood at the top of the world. That person was somewhat similar to Gu Yu at this moment, except that person's aura was much stronger than Gu Yu's. That person stood proudly above the sky, and all races bowed down.

"Gods...gods and demons." The Western Heavenly King's voice trembled slightly.

"Hmm?" Gu Yu frowned as he looked at the Western Heavenly King. Could it be that he knew about gods and demons?

"Senior, what's going on? Why is he not affected by the domain's suppression?" Wan Jin Kui asked the Western Heavenly King.

"He...he is a god or demon." The Western Heavenly King was already in a daze, and said intermittently.

"Gods and demons?" Wan Jin Kui asked with some doubt. He had never heard of such things as gods and demons. "Senior, what are gods and demons?"

"Gods and demons are the masters of this world; all races are but ants before them," said the Western Heavenly King.

"Huh?" Wan Jin Kui blinked. "That's not right! Senior, if what you said is true, I should have died just now."

"Why is his strength so weak?" At this moment, the Western Heavenly King seemed to have also realized something, and suddenly regained his composure, asking in confusion.

“Senior, you must be mistaken,” Wan Jin Kui said. “Senior, I have been ambushed and injured by him. I’m afraid I can’t defeat him in a short time. I need you to join me.”

"Gods and demons, I do not wish to be your enemy. If you leave, I will not make things difficult for you," said the Western Heavenly King. He had already sensed Gu Yu's cultivation level. However, the power of the gods and demons had already taken root in the Western Heavenly King's heart. He was afraid that if he offended Gu Yu, what would happen if that god and demon came out to find him?

Let alone a single Heavenly King, even if the entire Heavenly Court were combined, no one could be a match for that one god or demon.

"If you don't want to be my enemy, then behave yourself. Once the Nine Nether Soul-Seizing Spear has fully recognized its master, I will have my friend release you," Gu Yu said upon hearing the Western Heavenly King's words. He would avoid fighting if possible. Not to mention Wan Jin Kui and the Western Heavenly King joining forces, even one of them was beyond Gu Yu's current capabilities. If he could use his Origin Qi, he might be able to put up a fight, but the power of gods and demons wouldn't work because it couldn't amplify his strength.

Even if they cannot avoid battle, they must at least buy time, because the Western Heavenly King's fear of the Nine Nether Soul-Seizing Spear is enough to prove that once the Nine Nether Soul-Seizing Spear successfully recognizes its master, the Western Heavenly King will surely die.

"Since you insist on going your own way, don't blame me." Upon hearing Gu Yu's words, the Western Heavenly King's face turned cold. Although dying sooner or later was the same as dying sooner, he would rather die a little later. Besides, he was only guessing. What if Gu Yu had no connection with that god or demon?

"Go, kill him." Despite this thought, the Western Heavenly King did not choose to take action, but instead said to Wan Jin Kui.

"Senior?" Wan Jin Kui's face turned extremely ugly when he heard the words of the Western Heavenly King. The Western Heavenly King was clearly treating him as a servant, a dog.

"What? You're unwilling?" The Western Heavenly King looked at Wan Jin Kui, his tone icy. "If you're unwilling, then I'll have to make my move on you first. In your current state, you probably can't hold out against me for long."

"You..." Upon hearing the words of the Western Heavenly King, Wan Jin Kui was immediately enraged and embarrassed. He had not expected the Western Heavenly King to change his attitude so quickly.

"Heh..." The Western Heavenly King sneered, "Just tell me if you're going or not! I think if I were to cooperate with him now to kill you, he would be willing too." The Western Heavenly King looked at Gu Yu.

"Western Heavenly King, don't push your luck." Upon hearing the Western Heavenly King's words, Wan Jin Kui suddenly glared at him angrily, "I believe that if I were to join forces with him to deal with you, he would be willing."

The words of the Western Heavenly King enlightened Wan Jin Kui. If the Western Heavenly King could cooperate with Gu Yu, so could Wan Jin Kui. Sure enough, after hearing Wan Jin Kui's words, the Western Heavenly King's expression changed.

"You dare! God and demon, let's join forces and destroy him first," the Western Heaven Dynasty said to Gu Yu.

"Okay." Gu Yu hurriedly replied. This unexpected situation was once again in his favor. It was much better for him to team up with anyone to deal with anyone else than for the two of them to team up against him.

"Don't join forces with him. Join forces with me, and let them take him down together. Of the three of us, he is the strongest, you are the weakest, and I am injured. Eliminating him is the most beneficial thing for us," Wan Jin Kui hurriedly said to Gu Yu.

"Wan Jin Kui, let's join forces." Gu Yu suddenly said. Wan Jin Kui was right. Gu Yu's best option now was to join forces with Wan Jin Kui, because as long as the Western Heavenly King was killed, the domain would be broken. At that time, Gu Yu would be able to use his Origin Qi and would no longer be afraid of Wan Jin Kui.

“Okay.” Upon hearing Gu Yu’s reply, Wan Jin Kui immediately nodded in agreement. If he joined forces with the Western Heavenly King to kill Gu Yu, the Western Heavenly King would target him next. He was no match for the Western Heavenly King, so it would be better to join forces with Gu Yu to kill the Western Heavenly King first. Gu Yu’s performance was only at the fifth level, so dealing with Gu Yu would be a piece of cake.

"Very well, you think you can deal with me by joining forces?" Looking at Gu Yu and Wan Jin Kui who had reached a consensus, the Western Heavenly King's expression changed. Just to take down Wan Jin Kui, he would need to put in a lot of effort, let alone the combined efforts of Wan Jin Kui and Gu Yu.

Originally, everything was in the Western Heavenly King's favor, but these two people, who shouldn't be two oddballs, were unaffected by his domain, causing him to be so passive now. If he had known this would happen, why would he have wasted so much power to activate the domain? It's just a pity that once the domain is activated, even if he takes it back now, the power will never return.

"Heavenly King Covers the Earth Palm." The next second, the Western Heavenly King suddenly launched a powerful move. His first target was Wan Jin Kui. Although Gu Yu was a god and demon, which made him somewhat wary, Gu Yu's power was only five cones. In his eyes, the one who could truly threaten him was Wan Jin Kui.

Wan Jin Kui had long been wary of the Western Heavenly King; in his mind, the Western Heavenly King posed the greatest threat to him.

"White rainbow pierces the sun." Wan Jin Kui's long sword thrust out dozens of times, and in an instant, more than a dozen white rainbows met the Western Heavenly King's Heavenly King Covering the Earth Palm.

Boom boom...

An explosion rang out, and Wan Jin Kui's body was instantly forced back. "Hurry up and do it!" Wan Jin Kui shouted at Gu Yu. The Western Heavenly King had already begun to attack him, but Gu Yu showed no intention of helping him at all.

Gu Yu watched as Xi Tianwang and Wan Jin Kui were locked in combat. The next second, he suddenly moved. His sudden attack had caused considerable damage to Wan Jin Kui. If Wan Jin Kui were to lose to Xi Tianwang, he would be the next one to suffer.

"Extinction Cross Slash." Gu Yu's figure transformed into countless afterimages, sweeping towards the Western Heavenly King. The Western Heavenly King, who was wholeheartedly dealing with Wan Jin Kui, had his pupils shrink. Just as he was about to severely injure Wan Jin Kui, Gu Yu suddenly attacked, forcing him to abandon his pursuit of Wan Jin Kui and choose to block Gu Yu's Extinction Cross Slash.

"Heavenly King Suppresses All Directions." A powerful force erupted from the Western Heavenly King, instantly annihilating Gu Yu's afterimage and countless sword energies as he charged towards the Western Heavenly King. Even Gu Yu himself was sent flying backward in an instant.

Gu Yu's chest heaved up and down. The impact made his blood and qi churn. Fortunately, when he felt the power of the Western Heavenly King's attack, he decisively chose to retreat. However, even so, he was still somewhat uncomfortable.

The moment he knocked Gu Yu back, the Western Heavenly King moved and instantly appeared in front of Gu Yu. One of his hands was filled with red light, and he smashed it down towards Gu Yu's chest.

"Eight Directions Heaven-Reaching Shield, Origin Weapons." Faced with the Western Heavenly King's attack, Gu Yu's expression turned extremely ugly. Five pitch-black Origin Weapons appeared in front of him, along with the Eight Directions Heaven-Reaching Shield, which was formed by countless blade energies.

Boom... Crack... Boom...

In an instant, energy ripples shot out in all directions. The explosion of the source weapon and the shattering of the Eight Directions Heaven-Reaching Shield caused Gu Yu to fly backward like a kite with a broken string. He spat out a mouthful of blood during the flight, and his aura weakened instantly.

"Oh no!" Wan Jin Kui's expression changed drastically upon seeing this. He was worried that Gu Yu would die like this, and that he alone would be no match for the Western Heavenly King!

"Gu Yu." Ri Jiu's expression also turned extremely ugly. Gu Yu was very powerful, but even someone who had just entered the General Realm would perish if faced with a full-force attack from a peak General Realm expert.

"You ignorant fool, do you really think I'd be afraid of your divine or demonic identity?" the Western Heavenly King said disdainfully, in his eyes Gu Yu was already a dead man.

The next second, however, the Western Heavenly King's expression changed, because Gu Yu slowly floated into the air, and his aura had increased considerably. Gray divine and demonic power enveloped his sunken chest, which was rapidly recovering at a visible speed.

"The power of gods and demons is indeed beyond the comprehension of ordinary people," the Western Heavenly King murmured as he watched this scene. Gu Yu's eyes had turned gray, flashing with an eerie light. Under the baptism of the power of gods and demons, the ancient inscriptions on the wooden sword in his hand trembled continuously.

"White Rainbow Piercing the Sun, Second Form: Corona." At this moment, Wan Jin Kui suddenly flew into the air, his long sword emitting a halo of sunlight, and a terrifying force slashed down towards the Western Heavenly King.

"Heavenly King Shatters the Eight Directions." Facing the sun's crown, a violent power emanated from the Western Heavenly King's body. His disheveled hair fluttered violently, and he stretched out his hands, making a tearing motion in the air. The power that was about to strike him stopped and twisted instantly.

Buzz...

At that moment, Gu Yu also swung his wooden sword, instantly unleashing a heaven-splitting slash. A massive sword aura swept towards the Western Heavenly King, but it also stopped abruptly and began to twist as it approached him.

"Break!" It was clear that the Western Heavenly King was not in good shape. Although he was powerful, he was having a hard time resisting the full-force attacks from Gu Yu and Wan Jin Kui.

His face showed some pain, he gritted his teeth, his expression full of ferocity, and with a shout, he suddenly separated his hands.

boom…………

The next second, the combined attack of Gu Yu and Wan Jin Kui was twisted and torn apart by the Western Heavenly King, and the violent explosive energy instantly spread out, sending all three of them flying backward at the same time.

Huff... huff...

At this moment, none of the three were in good condition. As if they had discussed it beforehand, their chests were heaving in unison.

"Damn it!" The Western Heavenly King's face was extremely ugly at this moment. He was confident that he could deal with either of these two people, but he had no chance of winning when the two of them joined forces. Why? He had been suppressed for so long and was in such a state. He was about to break free when he encountered these two bastards blocking his way.

“He’s done for, let’s try again.” Wan Jin Kui said to Gu Yu, looking at the exasperated Western Heavenly King.

"Very good, very good. Since I cannot live, then none of us should live either." The Western Heavenly King looked at Gu Yu and Wan Jin Kui, who were about to attack him again, as well as the Nine Nether Soul-Seizing Spear that was recognizing its master, and suddenly said in a frenzy. An aura of destruction suddenly appeared around him.

As this destructive aura appeared, the entire area suddenly trembled.

"Gu Yu, he's going to blow up the domain and kill us all," Ri Jiu said to Gu Yu.

"Destroy the domain?" Gu Yu frowned, his expression changing drastically. If such a powerful domain were to explode, how powerful would it be?

Upon hearing this, Wan Jin Kui's face also turned extremely ugly. He came here for the divine artifact, the Nine Nether Soul-Seizing Spear, not to die. Now, he was going to die without obtaining the artifact, which was extremely unwilling for him. His father, son, and sect were all gone because of the Nine Nether Soul-Seizing Spear, and even he himself was going to die. How could he accept this?

"No..." Wan Jin Kui was trembling—his face, his body, and even his voice.

"Die, all of you! Die!" The Western Heavenly King had gone mad. "I, a dignified Heavenly King, have come to this end? I refuse to accept this! Underworld, the Great Emperor of the Ghost Gate, I refuse to accept this! Ah…"

The surrounding space trembled instantly. Although Gu Yu, who was using the power of gods and demons, was not affected by the domain, he felt the surrounding space compressing and the pressure coming from all directions seemed to be crushing his body.

boom…………

The entire area was shaking violently, with ear-piercing, head-splitting sounds echoing out.

Gu Yu, Ri Jiu, and Wan Jin Kui immediately coughed up blood, their bodies began to contort, and an indescribable discomfort swept over them.

Just when everyone thought it was all over, the Nine Nether Soul-Seizing Spear, which had been recognizing its master, and He Wen, who had been silent all along, suddenly moved.

Suddenly, a dark light shone in He Wen's eyes. His body moved abruptly, and the Nine Nether Soul-Seizing Spear appeared in his hand. He then swept towards the mad Western Heavenly King.

"It's no use. You've lost your divine power and can't stop me, hahaha..." The Western Heavenly King laughed as he looked at He Wen, who was charging towards him, holding the Nine Nether Soul-Seizing Spear. "Back then, the four of us Heavenly Kings joined forces to kill the Ghost Gate Emperor, who was your former master. Now, the master you've just chosen will also die by my hand, hahaha... You can't stop me."

Buzz...

The Nine Nether Soul-Seizing Spear was instantly blasted away the moment it approached the Western Heavenly King.
