Journey to the West: Demon Emperor: Beginning as a Little Toad

Chapter 255 Tam's Tactics
In Buddhism, earth, water, fire and wind are the four elements that make up matter.

Earth is solid, water is liquid, wind is gas, and fire is energy.

That is, Buddhism believes that this world is composed of "fire" as the energy center, "earth" as the land, "water" as the ocean, and the ubiquitous air "wind".

Earth and wind, one is still and the other is moving; water and fire, one is yin and the other is yang.

The earth is still, the energy of fire is restrained, water is radiant, and the movement of wind is the key to creating circulation.

In Feng Shui, water moves with the wind, which is the way of Feng Shui.

Driven by the wind, water was dispersed to every corner of the four continents, and over time plains and plateaus were formed.

Under the influence of wind, water gathers in some places to form lakes and rivers.

In some places, the water is blown away by the wind, causing a lack of water and forming deserts and Gobi.

The constant movement of Feng Shui can change the topography. Once Feng Shui changes, the pattern will change.

The movement between wind and water is called "Feng Shui".

The guardian beast of Buddhism, the golden-winged Roc, is a wind-related beast. But when “the wind brings prosperity to the water”, the Roc also has the power to “move the sea with the wind”, “dry the four seas” and “swim the rivers against their flow”.

……

Above the Liusha River.

The Bull Demon King held the purple-gold dragon stick, roared, and began to charge.

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord controlled the poisonous fog, and the Cold Star double-edged sword in his hand split into two. Wherever the tip of the sword pointed, the poisonous fog spread out in an instant and pointed towards the old monk in white robes.

Endurance and healing have always been a big thing.

During this tense battle, the magical effect of the Precious Lotus Lantern was undoubtedly demonstrated.

At this time, King Yu Monkey's injuries had been almost healed by the Precious Lotus Lantern, and his condition had improved greatly.

King Yu Monkey was ambushed by the old monk in white robe and suffered a great loss. He was filled with hatred in his heart, holding the Ghost King's Fork of the Netherworld and swinging the soul-binding chain, and rushed towards the old monk in white robe.

Virupaksha’s injuries were severe, almost reaching the brink of death. Her breath was weak, as if it could be extinguished at any time.

The old monk in white robe was treating the injuries of Vimalakirti Bodhisattva.

The healing pills he gave to Vilambha were naturally not ordinary, and his healing methods were naturally not bad either.

But...how could it possibly compare to the top-grade innate spiritual treasure "Baolian Lantern"?
At this time, Vimalapasā had only recovered about two or three points.

The monsters attacked like vicious wolves.

The white-robed old monk frowned slightly, but he was not panicked. He slowly raised his hand, holding a string of prayer beads in his palm, each of which exuded a faint Buddhist light.

He just flicked his sleeves lightly, and the rosary beads seemed to come alive and flew out of his hand.

At the same time, the Quicksand River actually responded to his call, and one hundred and eight rosary-shaped beads rose into the air from the water.

It was exactly the protective rosary that Vimala had kept in the bottom of his box.

It merged with the rosary in the air, becoming a larger, more radiant rosary.

At this moment, the Buddha's light shines brightly.

The 108 prayer beads, carrying the water from the Quicksand River, merged into one with the 108 prayer beads in the hands of the old monk in white robe, forming a string. In an instant, the Buddha's light shone brightly, emitting a terrifying aura of oppression.

"I see……"

Seeing this, Xiao Chen understood something, and his previous doubts were cleared away like clouds and mist.

He had always been puzzled. He clearly possessed the "Ancestral Dragon Pearl", a treasure that could obscure the secrets of heaven and conceal one's aura, so why could the old monk in white robe still sense their presence?

The demonic aura of these people should be completely concealed by the "Ancestral Dragon Pearl".

Moreover, Bodhisattva Vimala came alone, without anyone accompanying him, which made him even more puzzled.

It’s really strange how this old monk in white robe could sense it.

However, at this moment he finally understood the reason.

It turned out that the rosary of Vimala Bodhisattva and the rosary of the old monk in white robe were actually a pair, and they could sense each other.

The main function of "Ancestral Dragon Ball" is to conceal the aura of all objects it owns.

But to directly cut off the connection between others and magic weapons across the void is the function of another top-grade innate spiritual treasure - "Falling Treasure Money".

His "Ancestral Dragon Pearl" can hide all his things, but this rosary is someone else's magic weapon, he can't hide it.

This old monk in white robe obviously has profound attainments in the art of "wind" and is already able to "drive water with wind".

The old monk in white robe had an imposing aura like a rainbow, and the power of a Daluo Golden Immortal emanated from him. With a slight wave of his sleeve, the rosary beads seemed to be given life, rising into the air and surrounding his body.

The one hundred and eight prayer beads seemed to contain endless mysteries of the universe, evolving into one hundred and eight small Feng Shui worlds.

These prayer beads also absorbed water from the Quicksand River. Carrying the majestic weight of the river, they smashed down fiercely towards the six demons including the Golden Horn King, the Bull Demon King, and the Hundred-Eyed Demon King as if the sky was falling and the earth was sinking.

This is an upright way, using force to suppress others, making the six monsters feel unprecedented pressure.

These small Feng Shui worlds are breathtaking, with either magnificent mountains and rivers, rushing rivers, shrouded in clouds and mist, or shining sun and moon.

Xiao Chen was the first to bear the brunt of the attack. He glanced secretly and thought that he, the Bull Demon King, and the Black Bear Demon were strong and might be able to withstand it, but the three monsters, the Yellow Wind Great Sage, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, and the Yu Monkey King, might not be able to withstand it.

"Stand behind me!"

Xiao Chen shouted loudly, and he summoned his divine power and used the magical power of "Controlling Heaven and Earth".

His body swelled up instantly and became ten thousand feet tall. His head was as majestic as Mount Tai, his waist was as straight as a steep mountain, his eyes were as bright as the sun and the moon, his mouth was as deep as the abyss, his teeth were as huge as doors, his fingers were as thick as pillars supporting the sky, and his palms were as broad as clouds covering the sky.

At the same time, the power of the "Baolian Lantern" surged out from Xiao Chen's heart, transforming into a layer of dazzling light shield that protected his entire body.

This light shield contains endless vitality and healing power, as if it can withstand all attacks in the world.

Offense is always the best defense!

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Chen used his right palm to transform into a huge "mountain-splitting axe", which seemed to be able to split the sky and earth and cut off all things.

He roared, swung his huge axe, and chopped hard at the old monk in white robe.

After activating "Law of Heaven and Earth", the caster can transform himself into heaven and earth, and his strength will be infinitely increased. It is an extremely powerful magical skill and is only used against powerful enemies.

It is said that this "Imitation of Heaven and Earth" originated from what Pangu used when he created the world, and is a legacy left by Pangu.

The "Mountain-Splitting Axe" in Xiao Chen's hand is also a fragment of one thousandth of the "Heaven-Splitting Axe". It has separated from the main body and evolved on its own, which is the best interpretation of its power.

Yang Jian's "Facts of Heaven and Earth" was never used during the Battle of the Gods, but by the time of the Battle of Huaguo Mountain, Yang Jian had already mastered it.

I think that Yang Jian might have figured it out later from the "Mountain-Splitting Axe".

The magic power of Taiyi Jinxian, plus the great supernatural power of "controlling the laws of heaven and earth", plus the power of "mountain-splitting axe".

With the combination of these factors, Xiao Chen's power reached an unprecedented level. Just like Pangu, the creator of the world, he wielded a giant axe as if he wanted to split the sky in half.

Feeling this terrifying force, the old monk in white robe did not dare to be careless and pulled Vimala to dodge.

The four demons, the Great Sage Yellow Wind, the Demon Lord Hundred Eyes, the Ape King, and the Black Bear Demon, hid behind Xiao Chen.

The Bull Demon King was fearless and simply swung his purple-gold dragon stick to block.

The more than one hundred prayer beads smashed onto Xiao Chen's body like a violent storm, making a "bang, bang, bang" sound, as deafening as beating drums.

however.

Xiao Chen has grown up for so many years, and his whole body has been transformed by various innate and acquired spiritual treasures, such as: "Green Light Liangyi Lamp", "Bao Lian Lamp", "Purple Ribbon Fairy Clothes", "Ruyi Golden Cudgel", "Jade Rabbit Pounding Medicine Pestle", "Three-pointed Double-edged Sword", etc.

Even if he took a hit from the innate spiritual treasure, he would not be hurt.

Once a magic weapon reaches the level of a spiritual treasure, its strength is already very high.

During the Battle of the Gods, all kinds of magical weapons emerged one after another, Golden Immortals also came into the world one after another, and countless battles took place.

However, during the Battle of the Gods, there has never been any record of any innate spiritual treasure being destroyed.

None.

Xiao Chen was naturally fine, but the power of the 108 beads was so great that it caused his internal organs to feel a shock.

Xiao Chen groaned. At the same time, the power of the "Baolian Lantern" quickly traveled throughout his body, healing his injuries. He was healed in a few breaths.

Xiao Chen secretly evaluated the power of the rosary in his heart and came to the conclusion:
"This rosary should be at the level of an acquired spiritual treasure. It has not yet reached the level of an innate spiritual treasure, so it is nothing to be afraid of."

"What is truly powerful is the Feng Shui power of this old monk, not the rosary itself."

After being hit, Xiao Chen had a clearer understanding of the power of the rosary.

At the same time, Xiao Chen's big palm, like a cloud covering the sky, gathered more than twenty rosary beads.

Xiao Chen swallowed it into the "small world in his stomach" in one gulp, summoned several five-element mountains, and suppressed the beads fiercely.

Once some innate spiritual treasures are taken away by others, their owners cannot recall them.

For example, the "Banana Fan". Sun Wukong snatched the Banana Fan, and Princess Iron Fan had no way to summon it back, so the Bull Demon King could only find a way to trick it back.

Sun Wukong cheated and obtained countless magic weapons along the way, such as the Wind-Fixing Pill, the Nine-Dragon Fire-Proofing Hood, the Purple Gold Red Gourd... Sun Wukong used them at will after getting them.

Guangchengzi is the first of the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect. He is very powerful, with cultivation close to the peak of the Daluo Golden Immortal. He is the teacher of Emperor Xuanyuan Huangdi, and the treasure of his cave is the "Fantian Seal".

Guangchengzi gave his Fantian Seal to his disciple Yin Jiao. When Yin Jiao held it in his hand, it became Yin Jiao's.

Yin Jiao is a mortal who has only been practicing for more than ten years. What achievements can he make?
But Guangchengzi really couldn't summon back the "Fantian Seal". Besides, the old monk's rosary was only an acquired spiritual treasure.

The biggest difference between magic weapons and supernatural powers is that supernatural powers belong to oneself and cannot be taken away, but magic weapons are external possessions and may become someone else's at any time.

The "small world in the belly" of the Golden Horn King is an independent world, isolated from the outside world.

In this way, the sensory connection between the prayer beads and the white-robed old monk was completely cut off.

These one hundred and eight prayer beads originally corresponded to the number of the Heavenly Gang and the Earthly Evils. They were self-contained and had infinite power.

However, after Xiao Chen snatched away more than twenty of them, the power of the entire formation was greatly reduced and it could no longer exert its original power.

The attack failed, and he even lost some of his magic weapons. The old monk in white robe couldn't help feeling depressed. At the same time, he was also secretly surprised at Xiao Chen's defensive power. He thought:

"Could this be another Yang Jian?"

During the Battle of the Gods, he had fought against Yang Jian before and knew the troubles of a physical cultivator like Yang Jian.

The saint is invincible.

But unless you are a saint, everyone has weaknesses.

For example, the Buddha can be stung by a tiny scorpion.

Another example is the "Fantian Seal" and the "Five-Colored Stone".

Fantianyin can be called the "Saint Virgin Killer".

The Fantian Seal can directly kill the Golden Light Mother and the Fire Spirit Mother, directly knock down Duobao Taoist, and can beat the Turtle Spirit Mother back to her original form.

Guangchengzi is the leader of the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect and has extremely strong cultivation.

Yin Jiao used the Fantian Seal to attack Guangchengzi, who was so frightened that he turned into a golden light and fled.

But when the Fantian Seal was thrown out and hit Yang Jian, Yang Jian sat comfortably on his horse as if nothing had happened.

Kong Xuan is very powerful, with the strength of a Daluo Golden Immortal and even a Quasi-Saint.

Kong Xuan's "Five-Colored Divine Light" is invincible, and he can be said to be invincible under the saints. In terms of combat power, he can be ranked in the top ten in the Three Realms.

But objectively speaking, Kong Xuan's physical strength is indeed very average.

Especially when Kong Xuan encountered hidden weapons like the Five-Light Stone, he was somewhat helpless. He fought three times, was injured three times, and escaped twice.

The first time: Deng Chanyu grabbed a piece of five-colored stone and hit him.

Kong Xuan was hit in the face by a stone thrown by Deng Chanyu, and he turned his horse to flee back to the camp. Unexpectedly, Princess Longji raised the Luanfei sword and slashed at Kong Xuan from behind.

Kong Xuan was unaware that he had been stabbed in the left arm by a sword. He screamed and almost fell off his horse, then returned to the camp in agony.

The second time: Unexpectedly, Deng Chanyu threw a stone at him and shouted, "Look at the stone, traitor!"

Kong Xuan heard the noise and when he looked up, he had been hit in the face. He cried "Ah!", covered his face with his hands, and turned away.

Deng Chanyu took the opportunity to throw another stone, hitting Kong Xuan right in the back. Kong Xuan was seriously injured and fled back to the camp.

Kong Xuan was hit by the Five-Colored Stone once by accident, and being hit twice was coincidence.

But Kong Xuan was hit by the Five-Colored Stone three times in a row, and was injured and defeated three times, so... he does have a weakness.

However, Deng Chanyu's five-colored stone hit Yang Jian right on the face, causing sparks to fly. Yang Jian, on the contrary, rushed even faster.

Deng Chanyu quickly threw a stone, which hit Yang Jian in the face again, but Yang Jian pretended not to know.

Of course, Yang Jian is definitely no match for Kong Xuan. This is the law of mutual promotion and restraint.

……

"try again."

The old monk in white robe moved lightly. He flicked his sleeves and slapped Xiao Chen's chest again with a force that should not be underestimated.

With the help of the "Wind-Fixing Pearl", Xiao Chen is immune to most of the Nine Heavens Divine Wind of the white-robed old monk.

Xiao Chen's chest is stacked with three layers of buffs: the acquired spiritual treasure "Purple Ribbon Fairy Robe", the innate spiritual treasure "Green Light Liangyi Lantern", and the top-grade innate spiritual treasure "Baolian Lantern". It can be said to be the hardest part of his body.

The old monk in white robe slapped down, but not only did he fail to hurt Xiao Chen, but he also completely triggered the automatic defense function of the "Baolian Lantern".

When the Precious Lotus Lantern was shaken, the power of the top-grade spiritual treasure burst out instantly, instantly shaking the old monk in white robe away.

The old monk in white robe was secretly puzzled and didn't want to argue with Xiao Chen any more, so he flashed away and prepared to bypass Xiao Chen to fight the Yellow Wind Great Sage, Yu Monkey King and other monsters.

However, at this moment, the Bull Demon King shouted loudly and stepped forward to block the old monk in white robe.

The old monk in white robe slapped out a divine wind from the sky with one palm, and blew the Bull Demon King away with such powerful wind force.

Since the Bull Demon King did not have the "Wind-Fixing Bead", he naturally could not resist such a strong wind and was slapped away by the white-robed old monk.

At this moment, Xiao Chen also retracted his magical power of "Controlling Heaven and Earth".

There is no other reason, this celestial phenomenon increases its force, not its acceleration.

After he opened the "Law of Heaven and Earth", he became big in size.

However, this old monk in white robe is too fast and his target is too small.

It was difficult for him to hit the old monk in white robe.

Xiao Chen once again stood in front of King Yuxiong and swung out his "Ruyi Jingu Bang" fist to block the palm strike.

Xiao Chen groaned. At the same time, the power of the "Baolian Lantern" traveled throughout his body, quickly healing his injuries. He was healed in a few breaths.

"I really don't know what the exact background of this old monk in white robe is?"

Xiao Chen was also a little depressed.

During a battle, if you know the following points, you will have a good idea in mind.

Every time Sun Wukong suffered a loss in a fight, the first thing he did was to find out what his opponent’s background was.

Not to mention the Battle of the Gods, before the battle, the first thing Jiang Ziya did was to find out the opponent's background.

"This is not a solution. The Great Sage Yellow Wind, the Hundred Eyes Demon Lord, and the Yu Monkey King have become a burden."

Xiao Chen quickly thought about how to deal with it.

If we don't change our strategy, we will only be in a passive position if this continues.

It has always been as difficult as ascending to heaven for the weak to defeat the strong.

But the worst outcome for him was that he was defeated, swallowed up his brothers, and fled far away.

However, he did not want to escape.

All of Sun Wukong's classic tactics flashed quickly through Xiao Chen's mind, but they were obviously not suitable for the current situation.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came into his mind.

He thought of another "toad" in his previous life.

Oh, no, he has a long tongue, a big belly, and the ability to swallow people. He looks just like a toad.

But to be precise, he looks like a toad, but in fact he is a "catfish".

Tam, the river king.

Speaking of which, his current skills as the King of the Golden Horn coincide with Tam's devouring ability.

The situation is very similar.

His C position is behind him, and he, the Golden Horn King, is a meat shield. The opponent is coming aggressively, intending to bypass him and go straight to his C position.

And he also wanted to kill the opponent's squishy hero.

"Tam's tactics", Tam first swallows the C position into his stomach, and then... tries to bypass the enemy's encirclement and goes straight to the opponent's squishy.

Then, Tam took the opportunity to spit out our C position, and we gathered for a team fight.

Xiao Chen stared at Vimala who was recovering from his injuries and came up with an idea.

He once again used his back to withstand the powerful blow from the white-robed old monk.

The force of the blow almost made him fall from the sky, but he gritted his teeth and held on.

at the same time.

Xiao Chen opened his big toad mouth and swallowed the four monsters, the Great Sage Yellow Wind, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, the Ape King, and the Black Bear Demon, into his stomach in one gulp.

……

Note: In this situation, whether the two sides can win or not is actually very easy to judge, so don't worry too much about it.

This is a mythology fan fiction, and the past battle records of each mythological character can be checked.

Each character's skills, abilities, magical powers, magic weapons, past achievements, strengths, weaknesses... are basically completely transparent.

What's more, there are two measuring lines, Sun Wukong and Yang Jian, who have fought with basically all the characters.

It is actually relatively easy to judge whether the two sides can win by analyzing the position.
