The seven Hourglasses of Time and Space were slowly rotating. They each emitted a distinctive luster, tearing the void apart and forming a wide-open portal, which connected to the Soul Demon Universe, allowing the Soul Demons there to come to the Primitive Universe in a constant stream.

Bu Fang’s eyes shone brightly, and his face became much more serious. Not long ago, an hourglass had brought 100,000 Soul Demons to Void City. He knew that these seven could definitely bring a constant stream of Soul Demons. As long as the portal was not destroyed, then the Primitive Universe would always be at a disadvantage.

Here, the Soul Demons’ growth was completely unrestricted, so their strength would definitely become more and more terrifying. This was not good news. To thwart their attack and cut off their tide-like reinforcements, the experts of the Primitive Universe must destroy the portal created by the Hourglasses of Space and Time.

Suddenly, as Bu Fang watched through his God of Cooking’s Eye, one figure after another opened their eyes in front of the seven hourglasses. Their sharp gazes tore through the sky like lightning, shooting straight at his sight. He was taken aback. The next moment, those gazes followed his line of sight and stared at him from millions of miles away, while the monstrous power of sins erupted from the seven figures.

‘The Great Soul Overlords of the Seven Sins…’

Bu Fang’s heart grew somewhat heavy. All the Great Soul Overlords of the Soul Demon Universe had come to the Primitive Universe. To his relief, Soul God did not seem to have arrived yet. That meant the seven hourglasses were not enough for him to come over.

But he reckoned that after some time, when these hourglasses stabilized the void, Soul God should be able to pass through the portal. This was not good news.

The rest of Soul God’s body parts were sealed up in the Primitive Universe. If he obtained those parts, he would be able to fully recover. At that point, not only the Primitive Universe, but Void City, the Chaotic Universe, and the other universes would be at risk of being reduced to rubble by Soul God’s mighty power.

Bu Fang withdrew his eyes and exhaled. With a flick of his finger, he shot out a stream of pure divine power, knocking out a Soul Demon who had just popped its head up the city wall. “The situation is more serious than I’ve predicted…”

Houtu and Duchess Nightmare were also fighting the Soul Demons. They could not help frowning when they heard Bu Fang’s words.

“The seven Great Soul Overlords have entered the Primitive Universe. They’re sitting in the depths of the universe, waiting for Soul God to descend. Even if Soul God hadn’t reached his strongest state yet, it’s going to be a disaster once he comes here!” Bu Fang said.

Houtu and Duchess Nightmare’s faces flickered. The Primitive Universe had many almighty experts, but most of them were in deep slumber. Even though the Primitive Universe had more perfected experts and duke-level experts, the advantage was not necessarily giving it an edge.

The Soul Demon Universe had too many trump cards, and the main reason was the Soul Demon’s extraordinary ability to evolve. No one knew if other perfected experts were hiding among them!

In the sky above the battlefield, the collision of an immense palm and a demon hand shook heaven and earth. Terrifying energy fluctuations swept in all directions. It set off powerful blasts that struck countless experts, causing them to suffer serious injuries, while groups of Soul Demons were thrown into the air and blown into pieces.

The fluctuations generated by the battle between perfected experts were not something ordinary people could resist.

The walls were constantly shaking and swaying. No one knew how many times they had been pounded. Fortunately, the defenses of Hangu Pass were so strong that they did not suffer any damage. But this time, it seemed a little different. The attacks of the Soul Demons were terrifying, and they came wave after wave without showing signs of stopping.

Up in the sky, a top Soul Overlord stood in midair, his eyes gleaming like torches. His aura was like that of a monstrous demon, and he had almost half a foot in the realm of Great Soul Overlords.

“Break the Primitive Universe’s defenses!” he growled. The next moment, a black spear shot out of his hand and flew toward Hangu Pass in a stream of light.

A thunderous shout rang out of the pass. The next moment, a golden-banded staff flew spinning out and collided with the spear with a loud clang! The staff was knocked backward, then a figure—which appeared familiar to Bu Fang—soared into the sky on a cloud, caught the staff, and swung it. A thousand staffs appeared, spun through the air, and crashed into the army of Soul Demons, killing thousands in a flash!

“Cry now, you demon, for your Grandpa Sun is here!” Sun Wukong, clad in a robe and holding the staff in one hand, blinked his eyes and taunted.

A fierce battle broke out in the starry sky. The fight between the monkey king and the top Soul Overlord was an intense one. Although he was only a Saint of the Great Path, his rich experience allowed him to fight those who were one realm higher than him. The top Soul Overlord was as strong as a Chaotic Saint, but he could not do anything to Sun Wukong.

The corners of Bu Fang’s mouth lifted slightly as he watched them fight from the top of the wall.

“The Great Sage’s demeanor has never changed,” Houtu praised.

The morale in Hangu Pass soared. Meanwhile, one guard after another rushed out of the pass and fought with the Soul Demons. The vault of heaven turned crimson, while the Heavenly River was boiling with warm blood.

This was a battle for survival. The Soul Demons wanted to occupy the Primitive Universe, and the human experts naturally wanted to defend their home. Unlike the other lesser universes, the Primitive Universe was very strong, so it was not easy for the Soul Demons to capture it.

The battle entered a white-hot phase. The top Soul Overlord was defeated by Sun Wukong. Holding his staff and standing in the starry sky, he laughed wildly. His behavior naturally infuriated the Soul Demons.

“You’re too arrogant, hairy monkey!”

A rumbling sound echoed out as a trident surrounded in a stream of black sinful energy came at Sun Wukong. Swinging the golden-banded staff, he charged forward to meet the weapon.

Boom!

Two different energies collided in midair and exploded. Sun Wukong flew backward, and so was the trident, which was then caught by a Great Soul Overlord.

“Envy Great Soul Overlord…” Bu Fang narrowed his eyes and recognized the fellow. He was none other than Envy Great Soul Overlord, who Bu Fang had fought once in Void City.

During that fight, the Great Soul Overlord’s fleshly body was crushed. But now, not only was it restored, but his cultivation base had also improved and seemed to have stepped into the realm of the strongest Great Soul Overlords.

No matter how heaven-defying Sun Wukong was, he could not fight a Great Soul Overlord with the strength of a Saint of the Great Path. Therefore, he stepped on a cloud, turned, and sped away without hesitation.

Sneering, Envy Great Soul Overlord thrust his trident again. A mighty power strong enough to shatter the star went straight at Sun Wukong!

Suddenly, Envy Great Soul Overlord’s face flickered.

A cold snort rang out of Hangu Pass. Then, a horsetail whisk flew into the sky and turned into thousands of white threads in an instant, which collided with the trident and knocked it flying away.
