Great Demon Sun Wukong-Chapter 801 - 813 Misjudgment
801: Chapter 813 Misjudgment
801 -813 Misjudgment
As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing the enemy ensures victory in a hundred battles.
At this moment, Bu Rechen, Mu Dongsheng, and Proud Cloud Longbow made a critical mistake.
Of course, their mistake wasn’t in underestimating their own strength, but in severely underestimating the combat power of one of the Law Enforcers, the Weapon Controller.
This was inevitable, though, since after the battle in Ancient Times, the eight Law Enforcers never fought directly.
All matters requiring force were handled by the Heavenly Patroller.
When the Heavenly Patroller took action, no matter how strong the opponent was, they were almost always killed instantly.
This led to little knowledge about the true strength of the eight Law Enforcers.
Even Bu Rechen, the Domain Lord of the Myriad Gods Hall, and Mu Dongsheng, the Domain Lord of the Fangcun Spirit Realm, only knew that the eight Law Enforcers were at the Heavenly Venerate’s level.
As for what specific stage within the Heavenly Venerate rank, no one knew.
Based on their understanding of a Heavenly Venerate’s power and considering their breakthrough to the Heavenly Venerate stage, their final conclusion was that the Law Enforcers were indeed strong, but as long as it wasn’t a Heavenly Venerate’s Peak versus a Heavenly Venerate Primary Stage, three to four Heavenly Venerates of the same level could definitely handle one Law Enforcer.
This judgment was the main reason why the Six Great Divine Nations and other forces dared to confront the Law Enforcers directly.
Today, Bu Rechen and Mu Dongsheng realized their mistake, and it was a significant one.
During their previous battle with the Weapon Controller, they struggled yet gained the upper hand.
Even when the Weapon Controller controlled the Nine Heavens Pure Dust, Proud Cloud Longbow constrained him with the Myriad Gods Hall’s Heaven and Earth Rule.
But now, when the Berserker and Punisher spoke, Bu Rechen and Mu Dongsheng understood that they hadn’t stepped back due to the threat of the Proud Cloud Longbow, but because they had strong confidence in the Weapon Controller.
“Proud Cloud Longbow, I must admit you’re strong.
This should be the power of the Heaven and Earth Rule, quite impressive.
In this Fallen Tomb, you’ve increased its power by at least thirty percent.
But that’s all.
Today, I will teach you a lesson: never underestimate your opponent, as your opponent might be the most unique among all enemies!” Although his body was still sealed by ice and vines, the Weapon Controller spoke with such arrogance, exuding immense confidence.
“Weapon Control upon the world, Wielding Arms to vanquish foes!
Let me show you my true power!” Even before he finished speaking, the Weapon Controller, originally sealed by ice and vines, no longer resembled his former self.
He now was the Armed Dancer.
Some people are born special, with innate talent in certain areas.
These people are often called geniuses.
For example, Sun Wukong, and now, the Armed Dancer.
The sixth Law Enforcer, the Armed Dancer.
This was his true display of strength, while the Weapon Controller was merely a guise to conceal his real power.
Among the eight Law Enforcers, only the Armed Dancer and the Heavenly Patroller possessed the ability of mimicry.
Releasing their mimic forms could boost their combat power by at least double.
Thus, upon becoming the Armed Dancer, his combat power doubled, and in extreme bursts, it could triple.
The Armed Dancer vanished instantly, startling Bu Rechen, Mu Dongsheng, and Proud Cloud Longbow, but they quickly reacted.
Unfortunately, they were already too late.
As Proud Cloud Longbow shifted his gaze, the Armed Dancer appeared right in front of him, their noses almost touching.
A long-range professional’s greatest fear is the enemy getting up close.
Proud Cloud Longbow knew this all too well, so despite being startled by the Armed Dancer’s sudden appearance, he immediately activated the Heaven and Earth Rule, instantly switching positions with Mu Dongsheng.
The Armed Dancer did not pursue but instead grasped the air with both hands, and a massive, dull-golden hammer appeared.
As Mu Dongsheng instantly reappeared in Proud Cloud Longbow’s place, the Armed Dancer simply took a step back and swung the hammer towards him.
The speed was incredible.
So fast that Mu Dongsheng had no time to react and was sent flying by the hammer.
Mu Dongsheng was thrown aside, but the Armed Dancer’s hammer turned into a long whip, wrapping around him and pulling him back like a torn kite.
At this moment, Proud Cloud Longbow attacked again with the Heaven and Earth Rule, unleashing its most powerful arrow, the Cataclysmic Fire Arrow.
Upon release, the godly apparition behind Proud Cloud Longbow disappeared once more.
Though this arrow broke through space to attack the Armed Dancer’s back, it had no effect.
At the last moment, an ancient shield appeared behind the Armed Dancer, blocking the arrow.
The Armed Dancer could transform into any weapon and wield it effortlessly.
Blocking the arrow was not the end.
The Armed Dancer spun, grasped the Cataclysmic Fire Arrow, and as he spun, the arrow disappeared.
When it reappeared, it was already embedded in Proud Cloud Longbow’s left thigh.
Despite his incredible sensitivity to his own arrows, Proud Cloud Longbow was almost pierced in the heart.
In the blink of an eye, Proud Cloud Longbow was injured by his own arrow, and Mu Dongsheng was knocked away a second time, this time by a fierce Wolf Fang Club.
Among the three, only Bu Rechen remained unscathed, but in front of the Armed Dancer, Bu Rechen was almost worthless.
A battle that was evenly matched, with a slight advantage, turned drastically upon the Armed Dancer releasing his mimicry.
As the Armed Dancer transformed the Wolf Fang Club into twin swords and approached Proud Cloud Longbow from behind to end him, two different long swords suddenly appeared and blocked the Armed Dancer’s swords.
Two figures appeared, the Rogue Heart Sword Hero from the Netherworld World and Po Jun from the Myriad Gods Hall.
The sudden intervention startled the Armed Dancer.
Trapped in a formation where every move was monitored by the Dreamweaver, the unexpected intervention without any prior warning indicated that something was amiss, either with the formation or the Dreamweaver.
Retrieving his twin swords, the Armed Dancer backed away while observing the situation.
The Berserker and the Punisher were surrounded by about twenty people.
“Old Six, something’s wrong.
Everyone’s here.
Let’s retreat!” said the Punisher.
At this point, it was clear that their plan had failed.
Instead of fighting head-on, retreating was the better option.
The Armed Dancer was reluctant, knowing the cost of breaking his mimicry, and to do so without achieving anything was hard to accept.
Nonetheless, he knew that facing over twenty foes alone was unwise.
Even if they could kill half, the cost would be high.
Since it was just the beginning, it was better not to reveal everything.
Nodding, the Armed Dancer grasped the air, summoning hundreds of Flying Swords.
They formed an array, and while these swords weren’t as powerful as before, they served their purpose.
The trio used this opportunity to escape.
After the Tomb’s opening, this was the first direct encounter between the Divine Kingdom forces and the Law Enforcers, and the result was unexpected for both sides.
The Divine Kingdom Alliance had initially underestimated the Law Enforcers’ combat power, and the Law Enforcers had underestimated the alliance’s strength.
The Dreamweaver’s plan was initially perfect, using harmless yet spiritual mist to lure them into the Illusion Array, trapping the first wave as bait to draw in more Divine Kingdom allies.
This was just the first step.
The baited group wasn’t to be eliminated, but merely trapped.
The second step involved randomizing positions among the trapped groups every given interval, with each change ensuring two groups would encounter each other.
During these changes, no attacks were made to maintain the victims’ sense of safety.
The third step would then begin at the right moment, with the Armed Dancer, Berserker, and Punisher disguised as Pangu, Jue Luan, and Chaos Spiritless, entering and attacking during the position changes, their real identities concealed.
This deceit led to the Rogue Heart Sword Hero’s trio letting down their guard, resulting in a successful ambush.
The next stage involved multiple ambushes, each time sparing at least one survivor, spreading mistrust.
Following the fourth ambush, the Dreamweaver’s plan would have the enemies turn on each other.
Thus, even without further intervention, the alliance would collapse under mutual suspicion.
The plan was near perfect, except for the unforeseen strength of Zhibei after the Patrolling Celestial World’s trial and Lu’an’s influence on the Illusion Array, bringing everyone together to entrap the Berserker and Punisher.
