Chapter 204 Mythical Arena War: China Wins!
Thanos burst into laughter.
"Without this stick, what will you use to stop my punches?!"
Before he could finish speaking, Thanos darted forward and appeared in front of Sun Wukong. The purple Power Stone lit up, and he threw a punch directly at Sun Wukong.
Sun Wukong reacted extremely quickly, clenching his fists, his body radiating golden light, and his aura suddenly increased.
He also threw a punch, which collided with Thanos's fist.
boom--
A huge explosion erupted between the two gods, forcing both Sun Wukong and Thanos to retreat.
Sun Wukong somersaulted and regained his balance.
Thanos, on the other hand, relied on brute force to stabilize himself.
Sun Wukong glared angrily at Thanos.
"You purple-skinned monster, you've ambushed me again!"
Thanos was surprised that Sun Wukong was still so powerful even without the Golden Cudgel. He looked at Sun Wukong with a serious expression.
Ignoring Sun Wukong's anger, Thanos suddenly hardened his eyes, and the orange Soul Stone on his gauntlet lit up.
A strange light shot towards Sun Wukong, attempting to capture his soul.
Sun Wukong sensed danger and quickly used his divine power to protect his head.
However, this method of capturing souls was completely unstoppable; Sun Wukong's soul was directly captured and separated from his body.
The American crowd, who were watching the game with bated breath, cheered when they saw this.
"As expected of Thanos, a being of cosmic caliber, he's truly formidable!"
"This is the true power of the Infinity Gauntlet!"
"Looks like we're going to win this round."
"As expected, we still have to rely on the gods of our beautiful country! As for the gods of the other three countries..."
Thanos burst into laughter upon seeing this.
"Hahaha! Now let's see how you resist!"
However, just as Thanos was gloating, Sun Wukong's soul emitted a golden light, broke free from the Soul Stone's restraints, and returned to his body.
It turns out that Sun Wukong had cultivated for many years, and his soul was strong and resilient, so how could this Soul Gem be easily controlled?
The smiles of the American people, who were just overjoyed, suddenly froze.
Sun Wukong returned to his body, his eyes wide with anger: "I, Old Sun, am not so easily defeated by you!"
After saying that, Sun Wukong used his seventy-two transformations, turning into a giant ape and charging towards Thanos with immense strength.
Thanos was shocked and quickly activated the green Time Stone on the Infinity Gauntlet, briefly freezing time.
Sun Wukong froze for a moment, and Thanos successfully dodged Sun Wukong's attack.
He looked at Sun Wukong in horror: "How is this possible? How could you possibly break free from the power of the Soul Gem?!"
Sun Wukong regained his mobility and let out a cold snort.
"Why not? I, Old Sun, have plenty of tricks up my sleeve!"
After saying that, Sun Wukong's eyes darted around, and he suddenly laughed as he looked at the glove on Thanos's hand.
"One, two... five, six."
Sun Wukong counted the Infinity Stones embedded in Thanos's gauntlet, which were becoming increasingly dim.
"These gems probably don't have much energy left, right?"
Thanos's expression darkened upon hearing this, and he stubbornly replied:
"That's enough to deal with you, you stinky monkey!"
Sun Wukong chuckled and laughed upon hearing this.
"Deal with me, Old Sun? You've already used all those gems on me, and they haven't done any damage. How are you going to deal with me?!"
Thanos's face darkened further.
Just as Sun Wukong said, He had indeed used the powers of all six Infinity Stones.
None of them could defeat Sun Wukong.
Thanos took a deep breath, his eyes fixed on Sun Wukong, and smiled sinisterly:
"Yeah?"
After saying that, Thanos slowly raised his hand, preparing to snap his fingers.
Su Fan saw this scene from outside and immediately sensed something was wrong.
He shouted, "Great Sage, stop him! He's about to unleash a powerful attack!"
Although Sun Wukong didn't take Thanos's ultimate move seriously, seeing Su Fan's anxious expression, his eyes couldn't help but show seriousness and focus.
Sun Wukong shouted at Su Fan, "Watch out for me, Old Sun!"
Sun Wukong transformed back to his original form.
He pointed a finger at Thanos and muttered, "Freeze!"
Thanos froze in place.
Sun Wukong raised an eyebrow at Su Fan smugly and said, "How about that? Isn't I amazing?"
Su Fan nodded.
But then, Su Fan's eyes suddenly widened!
"Snapped!"
A crisp snap of fingers rang out.
Sun Wukong turned his head to look over.
Thanos's face contorted with madness, and the six gems on his gauntlet shone brightly at once.
Thanos grinned menacingly, "You think I can be frozen in place? Don't forget, I have a Time Stone on this gauntlet!"
It turns out that Thanos had made preparations long before Sun Wukong immobilized him.
Thanos knew that he was likely to be stopped by Sun Wukong when he snapped his fingers, and the fastest way for Sun Wukong to stop him was to use the immobilization spell that Thanos had used before!
So, just in case, Thanos secretly used the power of the Time Stone before snapping his fingers to prevent himself from being frozen in place.
Unexpectedly, He was right.
Thanos continued to laugh maniacally, "Hahaha! Destroy!"
The six gems on the gauntlet dimmed, and Thanos's right arm hung limply, completely useless.
Thanos's face was deathly pale, but he still stared at Sun Wukong.
When the people of America saw Thanos snap his fingers, they went wild.
"Thanos used his coolest move yet—a snap of his fingers!"
"It's said that if Thanos snapped his fingers, half of all life in the universe would disappear. I wonder if that's true?"
"Of course it's true! If Thanos hadn't snapped his fingers in the Mythic Arena, and if the arena hadn't protected us, we might all be dead!"
The American fortune teller, seeing Thanos successfully snap his fingers, breathed a sigh of relief.
"How will Sun Wukong possibly withstand this time?"
Su Fan's face also turned pale.
Oh no! That snap seems to be the power of rules, capable of forcing people to die. I wonder if Sun Wukong can withstand it.
Su Fan looked at Sun Wukong with a nervous expression.
Sun Wukong felt an invisible force surging into his body.
Sun Wukong felt that this power was about to kill him.
But then, this power mysteriously disappeared.
Sun Wukong stood there unharmed.
Thanos stared wide-eyed for a long time, but when he realized that Sun Wukong had not disappeared, he was stunned.
Sun Wukong looked at Thanos and said with a grin, "Is this your ultimate move? It doesn't seem to have much effect on me!"
Although the snap of his fingers was the power of the rules, Sun Wukong had long since transcended the Three Realms and was no longer within the Five Elements!
Sun Wukong's name had already been crossed out of the Book of Life and Death in the underworld, so this mere snap of his fingers was a joke to him.
It cannot cause Him any harm!
Thanos stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
"How is this possible?" Thanos roared.
The cheers from the American crowd abruptly ceased, replaced by a deathly silence.
Then, people across China cheered.
"This is the Great Sage! The invincible Great Sage!"
"I knew it! How could the Monkey King, Sun Wukong, possibly be defeated!"
"This is my idol, the Monkey King, Sun Wukong!"
"Upstairs, that's my idol too!"
"Sun Wukong, the Monkey King, is so cool! Which child isn't his idol?"
"..."
Sun Wukong laughed loudly, "With such meager skills, you think you can destroy me, Old Sun? Dream on!"
Having said that, Sun Wukong channeled his divine power, and his aura surged once more.
Then, He charged toward Thanos and threw a punch.
Thanos was powerless to dodge and was hit hard by the punch. He flew out of the ring like a cannonball and crashed heavily to the ground, unable to get up again.
The beautiful and skilled master of divination collapsed to the ground, his face ashen.
The Chinese people cheered with joy, and Su Fan also breathed a sigh of relief.
Thanos's divine presence vanished from the Mythical Arena.
At the same time, the mechanical sounds of the Myth Arena rang out.
"In the fourth round of the Mythical Arena, China emerges victorious!"
The emotionless voice continued.
"China has now won three rounds. According to the best-of-five rule, China has won this Mythical Arena War!"
Upon hearing the announcement of the Mythical Arena, all the masters of the Four Nations Alliance collapsed to the ground, their legs giving way.
"It's over, it's over..."
The cold, mechanical voice of the Myth Arena continued.
"The four-nation alliance has failed and will be punished, the punishment being..."
"Annihilate!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the appraisers of the four-nation alliance were instantly enveloped by a mysterious power.
They screamed and struggled in terror, but to no avail.
With a flash of light, the divine masters of the four-nation alliance turned to ashes and vanished without a trace.
The people of China were in an uproar, and the cheers were deafening.
Su Fan was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes. He had won the Mythical Arena against the Four Nations Alliance. This was no easy feat!
In each round, the enemy has sixteen gods to choose from, while he only has four Chinese gods to choose from.
Fortunately, he was lucky.
Sun Wukong returned to Su Fan's side, grinning, and said, "I didn't let China down, did I!"
Su Fan quickly cupped his hands and said, "Great Sage, your divine might is truly a blessing! It is a great fortune for China to have a Great Sage presiding over it!"
Sun Wukong waved his hand modestly.
"Alright, now that the Mythical Arena battle is over, I, Old Sun, must head back. I still have some matters to attend to there!"
Su Fan nodded upon hearing this.
"Since the Great Sage has things to do, then we won't delay him any longer!"
Sun Wukong's divine image slowly disappeared, and just before it completely vanished, it spoke to Su Fan:
"Su Fan, you'd better grow up quickly! We can't hold out much longer..."
After saying that, Sun Wukong's divine figure disappeared from the mythical arena.
Upon hearing this, Su Fan fell into deep thought.
He understood what Sun Wukong meant; it must be related to that war again.
Who exactly are Sun Wukong and his friends fighting?
Who could be so powerful as to block Sun Wukong and all the gods of China?
Why is it that only Chinese mythology has a break in continuity, while the mythologies of other countries do not?
These questions lingered in Su Fan's mind, giving him a headache.
After thinking for a long time without any ideas, Su Fan simply stopped thinking about it.
Once his strength increases, he will naturally be able to figure these things out!
Su Fan took a deep breath, an excited expression on his face.
Now, it's time to claim the rewards from the Mythical Arena.
The cold, mechanical voice of the Myth Arena rang out.
"The victor of this Mythical Arena War, China, will be rewarded with one wish, which is not limited to the limits set by the authority of this Mythical Arena."
Su Fan's eyes lit up when he heard about the reward.
He said impatiently, "Then I wish for a bottle of True Dragon's Blood!"
The Myth Arena quickly provided an answer.
"This wish cannot be granted as it is outside the scope of the Mythical Arena's authority. Please make your wish again."
Su Fan frowned.
"A drop of true dragon's blood?"
"Not within the scope of my authority and abilities in this mythical arena..."
Su Fan's face fell. He had been hoping to obtain the True Dragon's Blood to awaken the Candle Dragon and form a contract with it, but it seemed that was no longer a realistic possibility.
After pondering for a moment, Su Fan said, "Then I wish to raise my strength to the ninth rank."
The Myth Arena responded again: "This wish is beyond the authority of this Myth Arena and cannot be granted. Please change your wish."
Su Fan was getting anxious. He racked his brains, then suddenly thought of something and said:
"I promise to grant China a year of protection, and that no country will be allowed to invade China."
This time, after a moment of silence, a voice rang out from the Mythical Arena: "Wish granted."
Su Fan was overjoyed; he hadn't expected his wish to come true.
With this year of protection, China will have more time to develop and prepare.
At the same time, all parts of China felt the presence of a mysterious force, as if an invisible barrier was protecting the land.
"Long live the broadcaster! For the next year, we won't have to worry about war!"
"I never imagined a wish could be used in this way; it seems I was too naive!"
When Old Mo learned of Su Fanxu's wish, he smiled with satisfaction.
"This child is clever and has long-term plans."
All countries learned of China's one-year protection through various channels.
Some countries were envious, while others secretly plotted how to act after the year had passed.
Some people thought that since they couldn't start a war, they could at least assassinate someone in China, right?
In any case, they all considered Su Fan someone who had to be eliminated.
Su Fan returned to Kyoto from the Mythical Arena, and was immediately surrounded by high-ranking officials from China, who all came forward to congratulate him.
Old Mo patted Su Fan on the shoulder.
"Young friend Su, you have done a great service this time. With this year of protection, we no longer need to fear war and can focus on developing our own strength."
Su Fan humbly replied, "This is all thanks to the Chinese gods; I was merely responsible for awakening them. By the way, what are our plans for the future?"
After a moment of contemplation, Elder Mo said, "Next, our focus is on popularizing the concept of the Chinese gods and contracts among the Chinese people, while also passing on knowledge about the Chinese gods to the children of China."
"I'll have to trouble you to continue compiling this 'Chinese Divine Treasure Mirror'."
Su Fan nodded in agreement.
"No problem, it's just a divine mirror. I'll try to finish it within a month."
Old Mo patted Su Fan on the shoulder heavily.
"China is truly fortunate to have you!"
