514: Resurrection of the Monkey

He turned around abruptly, and a monkey, less than five feet tall and covered in golden fur, was standing right beside him, gripping his wrist tightly with its small claws.

"How did he get over here? When did he come over? When did he grab my hand? Why didn't I feel anything at all?"

Tesla was completely bewildered. Before he could say anything, he heard the monkey shake its head and sigh, "Forget it, why am I saying so much to you..."

Crack!

"Ugh..."

Tesla clutched his right wrist, his feet sliding back as if he were on rollerblades, and he didn't dare stop until he had retreated nearly a hundred meters.

"It's broken, and it's shattered..."

Tesla instantly made an assessment of his body, and a stream of data appeared in his eyes.

"A violent energy is surging through my arm, but it's been blocked at the shoulder by my biological force field, so it can't reach the rest of my body. Hmm, the arm is ruined... It needs to be repaired... but that would cost too much energy... So... forget it!"

Snap!

Tesla's arm detached from his body as if it had been sliced off by a blade, but the area that should have been a wound was remarkably smooth, without a single drop of blood flowing out.

After the arm hit the ground, it instantly exploded into a mist of blood and vanished without a trace!

"Heh, severing an arm to survive... the demeanor of an overlord!"

Ksitigarbha had long since regained his freedom. He glanced at Tesla, then looked at Sun Wukong and smiled, "It was worth all the effort. The Great Sage's Physical Body is more than ten times stronger than before, and the compatibility between his Soul and Physical Body is nearly perfect. This is truly a joyous occasion..."

Ksitigarbha had not even finished speaking when a metallic figure rushed over and swiped at Sun Wukong's back.

Sun Wukong didn't even turn his head. He suddenly swung his hand back, grabbed the opponent's wrist, threw him into the air, and slammed him hard against the ground. He then threw a punch, smashing the metallic head on the ground into pieces. The violent explosion gave Sun Wukong a slight sensation in his fist, but it caused absolutely no damage.

"Oh, so you can self-destruct? It's just a bit weak!"

The monkey turned to look at Ksitigarbha, then respectfully knelt and kowtowed, "Disciple Sun Wukong has received the Bodhisattva's compassion in reshaping my Physical Body. This kindness and virtue are impossible for Wukong to repay even with ten thousand deaths!"

"Heh heh, Great Sage, you are too kind. If it weren't for your Master coming up with this brilliant plan, we wouldn't have had any ideas at all. If you want to thank someone, you should thank him!" Ksitigarbha said with a chuckle.

The monkey smiled, revealing his white teeth, and said, "Master's kindness is also impossible to fully repay; the two cannot be confused..."

As he spoke, he respectfully kowtowed to Ksitigarbha once more, then stood up and shouted to the sky, "Master, switch with me! Let me test how well this body works!"

Tang Ku, who was in mid-air, had already seen the resurrected monkey and couldn't help but beam with joy, chuckling, "Alright!"

As he said this, he withdrew from the battle, and Sun Wukong stomped his foot, performed a somersault to get behind Nobel, and with a grappling throw, smashed him straight from the sky into the ground.

"His Spell and Divine Ability are all still there... and they're stronger than before!" Tang Ku saw at a glance that his method of movement was the Somersault Cloud, and he couldn't help but chuckle, "It's just that his movements are a bit too violent!"

This round of conversation made Tesla's heart sink to the bottom. It was clear that Tang Ku and the others didn't take him seriously at all, not valuing him as a Master of Law.

In fact, he had self-awareness; although he had mastered a Law, he was truly a novice when it came to combat because all his time was spent researching and inventing new things, leaving him no time to practice fighting.

Furthermore, as an inventor, he had comprehended the Life Law. Although this Law played a pivotal role in his inventions, allowing all the objects he created to possess life and even derive a Soul, this Law was completely different from Darwin's Life Law. At the very least, Darwin's understanding of the Life Law had already transformed into a combat instinct.

Boom!

A large crater exploded in the ground, and both Sun Wukong and Nobel stood up from within it. Nobel said in a deep voice, "You little monkey, to have such immense strength, it's truly inconceivable!"

Sun Wukong laughed, "You're quite impressive too... Hmm, I heard it just now, it's called the Explosive Rule, right? Heh, very good, very good, my hand is almost numb from the shock... Hmm, come again, come again, let me see just how much power your Explosive Rule can reach... I heard before that some people can destroy an entire city with some kind of explosive. Can you do that?"

Nobel narrowed his eyes suddenly and said, "What, do you want to try it out?"

Sun Wukong clenched his fist and chuckled, "I could try..."

The air almost froze, and both sides were at daggers drawn. Nobel's right hand suddenly turned crimson, and ripples continuously spread from his fist, only to retract back into it, repeating countless times.

"Alfred, stop!" Tesla's voice pulled Nobel back to reality. He turned around abruptly to look at Tesla, his face full of confusion.

"Don't use that move here... Listen to me, we are currently in a three-on-two situation, and my combat power is weak, so our chances of winning are too low... If you want to deal with them, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future!" Tesla's voice was transmitted directly into Nobel's ear through some kind of instrument.

Nobel hesitated for a moment, then lowered his fist and said helplessly, "Fine... Let's... let's go..."

"Heh, you come when you want and leave when you want? Do you really take this place for a public restroom?" Tang Ku cracked his knuckles and said, "You know what? If I hadn't been worried about causing a massive collapse and affecting our 'project progress' earlier, I would have already hammered you into the ground. Now that you see the situation is unfavorable for you, you want to leave? Heh, too late!"

As he spoke, an unusual fluctuation appeared on Tang Ku's fist, and he was about to strike the next moment.

Over there, Tesla smiled, stamped his foot slightly, and the ground shook violently as if there were an earthquake. Immediately after, a huge blue vortex suddenly appeared beneath his feet.

Tesla chuckled, "I'm afraid I cannot accompany you further..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a golden light flashed from the vortex beneath his feet. By the time Tang Ku and the others recovered, the vortex, Tesla, and Nobel had all disappeared.

"Our time was paused for 0.5 seconds..." Tang Ku said in a deep voice, "What kind of instrument did this guy use to teleport them away?"
