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

Chapter 256: Devouring Vilampo

Xiao Chen swallowed the four monsters, including the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, the Yu Monkey King, and the Yellow Wind Great Sage, into his stomach in an instant.

The old monk in white robe dodged and went away, intending to kill the four monsters, but he missed and only nothingness remained.

He was at the Daluo realm, but he was fooled by Xiao Chen several times in a row. The murderous intent in the old monk's heart became stronger and stronger.

The 108 beads were broken by the monster, and his own Nine Heavens Divine Wind hit the monster in front of him, but it was like a drop in the ocean, dissolved by an invisible force and had no effect at all.

Without any choice.

The old monk in white robe took out another sword from his sleeve.

"Zheng!"

The sound of a sword chanting.

The sword was unsheathed, flashing a sharp cold light.

The sword intent soared into the sky, as if it could cut off everything in the world.

The old monk in white robe shouted softly, and his sword turned into thousands of swords. Thousands of sword lights shot towards Xiao Chen.

Each of these sword lights contains powerful force, enough to kill ordinary demons.

No matter how strong a person's body is, he or she still has a vital point.

The old monk in white robe intended to use this dense rain of swords to find out the vital points on Xiao Chen's body and give him a fatal blow.

Xiao Chen knew very well where his vital point was, which was the anus.

Although he had already integrated the "Wind-blowing Bottle", this magic weapon has not yet reached the level of acquired spiritual treasure, and it is probably unable to completely withstand the sharp sword light of the white-robed old monk.

He had a sudden thought and remembered that he still had one pair of "embroidered precious shoes" left.

The embroidered shoes come in a pair, two on the left and two on the right.

The last time he rescued a prisoner from Heaven, he used one and had one left.

Xiao Chen was about to use his last "embroidered precious shoe" and prepared to perform the "Golden Toad Shedding Its Shell" technique.

at the same time.

"Come and help me!"

The old monk in white robe said in a deep voice.

"Hey hey hey, okay!"

A playful male voice responded.

The simple conversation is over.

I saw a strange gray-yellow flame flying out from the sleeves of the old monk in white robe.

This flame is different from ordinary fire. It emits a cold and sinister aura, as if it is an extremely yin fire gushing out from the depths of the underworld. It carries a biting chill, but also contains burning energy, forming an indescribable weird atmosphere.

The appearance of this flame made the surrounding air seem to solidify, revealing a sense of depression and uneasiness.

However, to be honest, Xiao Chen didn't feel anything about the strange gray-yellow flame that was blowing towards him.

This was not because he was blindly confident, but because he held two great spiritual lamps in his hands - the "Baolian Lantern" and the "Cui Guang Liang Yi Lantern".

The Precious Lotus Lantern, as the first of the five spiritual lamps, has a flame called "Seven Treasures Wonderful Fire" and has unparalleled defensive capabilities.

The "true fire of the sun" contained in the Cuiguang Liangyi Lamp is extremely yang and strong, and can burn evil things.

With two spiritual lamps in his hands, Xiao Chen is actually almost immune to this kind of fire damage.

At the moment when the sharp sword light of the white-robed old monk and the strange gray-yellow flame intertwined.

Xiao Chen's mind moved, and he quickly gathered his magic power. With a light flick, he cut off a nail on his right foot, and said softly in his heart:
"Change!"

The broken right toenail instantly turned into one of his clones, which was exactly the same as Xiao Chen in appearance, temperament and magical fluctuations. It was like a twin brother and appeared at the place where Xiao Chen originally stood.

At the same time, this right toenail also inherited some of Xiao Chen's magical powers.

At this moment, the real Xiao Chen, with the help of his clone's cover, had turned invisible and merged into the surrounding void, silently and without a trace.

He took advantage of this momentary illusion and rushed towards Vilamva silently like a ghost.

In the battle between the two sides, the method of change is an extremely critical tactical means. It can not only confuse the enemy, but also create opportunities for counterattack.

Whether the various methods of transformation such as invisibility, illusion, and seventy-two transformations can be detected depends on whether the other party has superb pupil skills.

For example, Yang Jian often used his seventy-two transformations to sneak into the Shang Dynasty military camp to rescue people, cause sabotage, and find out the enemy's whereabouts.

Sun Wukong is even more famous for his seventy-two transformations. He once transformed himself into a barefoot immortal, sneaked into the Yao Chi, and caused a big disturbance at the Peach Banquet, causing chaos in the Heavenly Palace.

but.

The embroidered precious shoes are not ordinary items. The phantom body they transform into is actually of a very high level, even stronger than the seventy-two transformations.

Even Sun Wukong, who possesses the "fire eyes and golden pupils", cannot tell whether the embroidered precious shoes are genuine.

The golden-nosed, white-haired mouse demon once used the embroidered precious shoes to play tricks on Sun Wukong twice. He abducted Tang Monk right under Sun Wukong's nose, making Sun Wukong so angry that he cried.

Therefore, when Xiao Chen used the embroidered precious shoes to create an illusory body and escaped invisibly, the old monk in white robe was unable to see through it for a moment.

The white-robed old monk's sword light and the ghost fire in his hand all hit the "fake Golden Horn King" who was transformed by the embroidered precious shoes.

For immortals and monsters above the Taiyi Golden Immortal level, a moment of distraction or a split second of mistake during a battle is enough to change the entire situation.

In one breath.

The attack of the old monk in white robe poured down like a storm on the "fake King of the Golden Horn" transformed from the precious shoes.

Although the phantom body of the "Embroidered Precious Shoes" is of an extremely high level, even surpassing the Seventy-Two Transformations in some aspects, its resistance is ultimately limited in front of a strong man like the white-robed old monk.

In a moment, the sky full of sword lights and ghost fire had surrounded the "Fake Golden Horn King". His body was gradually twisted and broken under the fierce attack, and finally turned into powder and dissipated into the air.

Seeing this, the old monk in white robe realized that something was wrong.

At the same time, Xiao Chen had quietly come to Vilampo's side.

Previously, this Vimala was protected by a Buddhist formation composed of "mind-power Buddhist beads". As long as the Buddhist formation was not broken, no one could get close to her.

Moreover, with his cultivation at the peak of Taiyi Golden Immortal and the extremely fast speed of the Rakshasa clan, it is not easy to get close to her when she is on guard.

At this time, Vilamva was seriously injured and had just been rescued from the brink of death. He was as fragile as a candle in the wind.

Her strength is close to nothing, and she is still healing her wounds on the top of the mountain. How can she defend against Xiao Chen who is in invisible state?
Xiao Chen used the art of invisibility and flashed to her side like a ghost. He patted Vimala with his left hand and instantly activated the immobilization function of the "Dragon Escape Pillar", immobilizing Vimala before she could react.

Before Vimala could even react, he was pinned down and unable to move.

There was a flash of fear and despair in her eyes, but she was powerless to struggle.

"swallow!"

Xiao Chen opened his bloody mouth like a hungry beast and swallowed Vimala whole into his "small world in his stomach".

Under normal circumstances, he is only at the Taiyi Golden Immortal level. He would be cautious about devouring a Bodhisattva at the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal level.

After all, in this situation, it would be easy to be ripped open by a master of the same level.

There are too many examples.

For example, the green-haired lion monster that "can swallow 100,000 heavenly soldiers in one bite" also has a great space power in its stomach. However, after the green lion swallowed Sun Wukong, it was almost killed by Sun Wukong in its stomach.

The peacock swallowed the Buddha, the Yellow-browed Demon ate the watermelon...they were all broken from the stomach by others, it's the same principle.

If you don't know the other party's background, you really can't just swallow it carelessly.

However, in the current situation, Vimala was seriously injured and his strength was greatly reduced.

What’s more important is that in his “small world in his belly”, there are four monsters: King Yu Monkey, Lord Hundred Eyes Demon, Great Sage Yellow Wind, and Black Bear Demon.

These four powerful demons are more than enough to kill a seriously injured and dying Vimala.

They rushed forward and stabbed the Bodhisattva down with their spears and swords.

In Xiao Chen's plan, the seriously injured Vimala was to be directly put into the "Yin Yang Qi Bottle" for refining. This was the last step.

Before everyone started working, they had already distributed the soul, head, body, tongue, blood... of Vimala Bodhisattva, and agreed that everyone would take their own.

Everyone benefits from it.

The Hundred-Eyed Demon King wants Vilambha's body to make elixirs, the Bull Demon King has a special liking for the Bodhisattva's blood, the Black Bear Demon plans to use her bones to make dice, and the Yellow Wind Great Sage wants the Bodhisattva's head to make a wine glass...

Especially the King of the Monkeys.

King Yu Monkey came here just to eat the soul of Bodhisattva Vimala.

King Yuxiong was determined to devour Vilamva's soul in order to enhance his own cultivation.

The demon kings are well aware that this action is extremely risky. They are not only challenging the authority of Buddhism, but also gambling with their own lives and property.

Everyone risked their lives and property, and followed the Golden Horned King to kill Buddhist Bodhisattvas, going through life and death.

If nothing is gained in the end.

He, the King of Golden Horn, refined the Bodhisattva by himself and ate it all by himself. He, the King of Golden Horn, kept the stolen goods by himself.

Everyone came to help him, but in the end, the benefits were all taken by him, the King of Golden Horn.

This...is not fair.

Not only did it hurt the brotherhood, but next time, no one would be willing to help him if something happens again.

……

"Brothers, the Bodhisattva is here."

"Work quickly!"

Xiao Chen's mind moved, and in the small world of Qiankun in his stomach, he conveyed a message to the four demons, King Yu Monkey, Lord Hundred Eyes Demon, and Great Sage Yellow Wind.

At the moment when Xiao Chen swallowed Vimala Bodhisattva, the old monk in white robe had already noticed something unusual.

"How dare you, monster!"

The roar of the old monk in white robe shook the earth.

The old monk in white robe reacted very quickly. His wide sleeves fluttered in the wind, containing infinite power.

Just at this moment.

The monk's sleeves instantly turned into a pair of huge bird wings. With a flap of his wings, the old monk in white robe, carrying the powerful Nine Heavens Divine Wind, turned into a dazzling white shadow and flew towards Xiao Chen at an astonishing speed.

"Dapeng?"

Xiao Chen saw clearly the huge shadow of the bird's wings.

He immediately recognized that these were the wings of a roc.

It's because he had fought with the golden-winged Peng many times and was deeply impressed by the Peng's wings.

This old monk in white robe is not someone that King Golden Horn can defeat alone.

Emergency moment.

He decisively performed the "Golden Crow Transformed into Rainbow" escape technique. Xiao Chen's body instantly turned into a dazzling golden light, like a meteor streaking across the sky, and fled towards the direction of the Bull Demon King at an astonishing speed.

At the same time, Xiao Chen was also wearing the "Wind Spirit Feather Robe". This magic weapon provided him with an additional speed bonus, making his movement in the air even faster, like lightning.

however.

The old monk in white robe vibrated his wings and turned into a sharp white shadow, chasing Xiao Chen relentlessly, wanting to catch Xiao Chen, cut him open, and take out Vimala Bodhisattva from his stomach.

Dapeng can fly 180,000 miles with a flap of its wings, and is considered the fastest divine bird in the Three Realms. Its speed far exceeds that of Sun Wukong's "Somersault Cloud".

What's more, this is a Dapeng at the Golden Immortal level. He has already touched the "wind" and his speed is incomparable to that of an ordinary Dapeng.

A thrilling aerial chase begins.

A golden light and a white shadow, the two were chasing each other back and forth in the air at a speed that was astonishing.

This is a contest between the Golden Crow's technique of turning into a rainbow and the Great Peng's extreme speed.

After knowing that the true form of this old monk in white robe is Dapeng.

In a flash, Xiao Chen's thoughts raced as he tried to analyze the true identity of the old monk in white robe.

There are many creatures like Dapeng in the Three Realms.

The Demon King Peng, the Dapeng of Lion Camel Ridge, the Dapeng sitting under the ancient Buddha Dipankara, the Garuda Legion among the Eight Immortals in Lingshan... are all Dapeng.

The most well-known Dapeng in Buddhism is the Dapeng of the uncle of Tathagata Buddha, who was once suppressed by his own King Golden Horn.

However, the old monk in white robe in front of him was obviously not the suppressed Dapeng.

Then, he is either the Dapeng under the seat of the ancient Buddha Dipankara, or a member of the Lingshan Garuda Legion.

"Tihejieluo..."

Xiao Chen recalled the Buddhist name that the old monk in white robe had chanted before, which was Tihejie Luo, not Amitabha.

Although he didn't know much about Buddhist scriptures, but when he thought about it now, Tihejie Luo seemed to be the name of the Buddha Dipamkara.

In Xiao Chen’s “small world in his belly”.

All the demons rushed forward and stabbed the seriously injured Vimala Bodhisattva to death with their spears and swords.

How could a seriously injured Vimala Bodhisattva be a match for the four demon kings: the Ape King, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, the Yellow Wind Great Sage, and the Black Bear Demon?
After struggling for three or four rounds, Bodhisattva Vimala fell down completely.

"what!"

……

With a shrill wail, the Great Sage Huangfeng raised the three-pointed wolf-tooth fork and cruelly stabbed off the head of Bodhisattva Vimala.

The Great Sage Huang Feng held the Bodhisattva's head, placed it against his chest, and actually began to devour it. The scene was very bloody.

The Hundred-Eyed Demon King took the body of Bodhisattva Vimala and prepared to use it to make elixir.

The black bear demon obtained the limbs of Vimala Bodhisattva.

at this time.

After the physical body of Vimala Bodhisattva was destroyed, her soul drifted away helplessly.

There was a red light flashing in King Yuxi's eyes, filled with greed. He acted quickly, and the soul-catching chain accurately locked onto the three souls and seven spirits of Bodhisattva Vimala.

In the midst of Vimala Bodhisattva's extreme fear, King Yuma transformed into a giant golden ape. He opened his bloody mouth and swallowed Vimala Bodhisattva's soul in one gulp.

As the monkey king devoured it, the soul of Bodhisattva Vimala completely disappeared from this world.

Feeling that Bodhisattva Vimala was dead, Xiao Chen's thoughts did not stop.

He quickly sent a message to the Great Sage Yellow Wind, asking about the identity of the old monk in white robes:
"Huang Feng, is this old monk a disciple of Randeng?"

Upon hearing this, Great Sage Huang Feng frowned slightly. He tried hard to recall and finally remembered some memories about the old monk. He quickly responded:
"Yes, it seems to be called something white..."

"Venerable Bai Xiong."

Xiao Chen understood after hearing this.

Venerable Bai Xiong, as the disciple of the ancient Buddha Dipankara, naturally has an extraordinary status in Lingshan.

He can be compared with the Golden Cicada of Tathagata Buddha, the Yellow-browed Old Demon of Maitreya Buddha and others. They are all capable disciples of their respective Buddhas and possess extremely high cultivation and status.

In fact, don't underestimate the boy who plays the chime.

All the immortals can be summoned by ringing the bell and striking the chimes. The boy who rings the chimes must be the elite among the elites and the leader among the disciples.

Compare with the Twelve Yuxu Immortals under Yuanshi Tianzun.

Guangchengzi struck the bell and Chijingzi struck the chime. They were the first two disciples among the Twelve Golden Immortals of Yuxu.

In the original plot, this Venerable Bai Xiong was extremely fast and was an errand boy for the ancient Buddha Dipankara. He was ordered by the ancient Buddha Dipankara to catch up with Tang Monk and Sun Wukong and snatch the wordless scriptures from them.

Although the original text does not reveal what his true identity is, it is actually easy to infer from his supernatural powers and abilities.

Venerable Bai Xiong rode on the strong wind and rolled away from the gate of Leiyin Temple, showing his great power.

He also said that the wind was very strong, and when it blew up, it was like this: "The warriors before the Buddha are no match for the two wind gods Xun. In this gust, fish and dragons all lost their caves, and rivers and seas went against the waves..."

This extreme speed and ability to use wind clearly points to the bird family.

Among birds, the Dapeng is the best at using the wind. They have the power to "move the sea with the wind" and "fan the four seas to dry up", which echoes the description of "the rivers and seas against the waves" in the original text.

Moreover, Dapeng loves to eat dragons, and often uses its ability to control the wind and move the sea to dry up the rivers and seas, leaving fish and dragons nowhere to hide, and then catches them and eats them. This also coincides with the "fish and dragons all lost their holes" in the original text.

Combined with the background of the Battle of the Gods, the ancient Buddha Ran Deng once subdued a Dapeng as his disciple, named "Yuyixian".

This Dapeng also: "Once he fanned the four seas to the bottom, and ate up all the fish in the seas of the Dragon King."

This Winged Immortal is none other than the second disciple of Randeng. His identity and status match those of Venerable Bai Xiong, so they are most likely the same person.

Yuyixian is a casual cultivator from Penglai Island.

Although Yuyixian's record in the Battle of the Gods was not impressive, he lost four battles and never won a single game.

But, the Winged Fairy actually has quite good abilities.

It depends on who the opponent is.

In his first battle after debut, Yuyixian encountered a combination of powerful enemies including Yang Jian, Nezha, Huang Tianhua, Tuxingsun and Lei Zhenzi. Yuyixian suffered four major losses in such a lineup and fled in defeat.

In the second battle, the Winged Immortal was furious and wanted to use the power of the four seas to kill all the hundreds of millions of people in Xiqi!
However, Yuanshi Tianzun stopped him with the Three Lights Divine Water, and Yuyixian was defeated again.

In the third battle, Winged Fairy wanted to eat people because of hunger, and ended up bumping into Randeng.

He was tricked by Ran Deng into eating the rosary and was drawn into it. He was then subdued by Ran Deng and became his disciple.

Winged Immortal, defeated again.

In the fourth battle after Yuyixian debuted, he was sent by Randeng to fight Kong Xuan, and... naturally he was defeated.

From then on...the Winged Immortal never came out again.

Although Venerable Bai Xiong and Winged Immortal have different names, they are both disciples of Randang and both are Dapeng, so they are most likely the same Dapeng.

"Winged Immortal" is the predecessor of "Reverend Bai Xiong".

But it is obvious that "Venerable Baixiong" and "Lion Camel Ridge Dapeng" are not the same Dapeng.

Judging from the strength, Yuyixian (i.e. Venerable Baixiong) was able to fight against five masters including Yang Jian, Nezha, Tuxingsun, and Lei Zhenzi alone. Although he was defeated in the end, he also demonstrated his strong fighting ability.

In contrast, when Dapeng of Lion Camel Ridge faces Sun Wukong, he needs two helpers to deal with him.

Judging from the background, Yuyixian is a disciple of the ancient Buddha Dipankara, while Dapeng of the Lion Camel Ridge is the uncle of Tathagata Buddha. The two belong to different factions.

Both Dipankara Buddha and Tathagata Buddha have very high status in Buddhism, and their disciples and relatives obviously will not be confused.

Judging from his background, Yuyixian was originally a casual cultivator from Penglai Island. He had no relationship with Kong Que and did not know Kong Xuan.

Dapeng of Lion Camel Ridge is the son of Phoenix and the younger brother of Peacock, and has a close blood relationship with Peacock.

……

at this time.

Xiao Chen was running wildly in front, his figure was like a golden lightning, cutting through the sky.

The old monk in white robe, namely Venerable Bai Xiong, holding a sword and a ghost fire from the underworld, was chasing closely behind.

"You birdie!"

"Don't chase my brother!"

At this moment, the Bull Demon King charged forward like an angry bull.

The Bull Demon King stood in front of Xiao Chen without hesitation, waving the purple-gold dragon stick, trying to block the way of Venerable Bai Xiong.

The Bull Demon King’s figure is as huge as a mountain, his stick skills are extremely powerful, and each stick carries the power to destroy the world.

Venerable Bai Xiong was not afraid at all. He held a sword in his hand and fought against the Bull Demon King's purple-gold dragon stick.

In a moment, the swords and sticks collided, sparks flew, and the two men had fought several times.

Venerable Bai Xiong did not want to get entangled, and the Netherworld Ghost Fire in his hand suddenly became like a burning ghost and was thrown out in an instant, hitting the Bull Demon King in the chest.

The two men came very close to each other, and the Bull Demon King couldn't dodge.

Although the Bull Demon King was strong and powerful, he was somewhat afraid of fire. What's more, this Netherworld Ghost Fire could directly burn his soul, causing him to roar and scream in pain, which was almost unbearable.

Venerable Bai Xiong was extremely fast. He took advantage of the situation and the sword in his hand flashed, slashing across the Bull Demon King's neck.

Although the Bull Demon King had a strong physique, he had not cultivated to the level of an indestructible body, so he could not withstand the sharpness of the sword.

The sword ruthlessly slashed across the Bull Demon King's head.

At that moment, time seemed to stand still.

The Bull Demon King’s head fell off directly.

But, the Bull Demon King’s body is still there.

The hands on the Bull Demon King's body seemed to have their own consciousness and caught the falling bull head.

Immediately afterwards, a strange light flashed at the Bull Demon King's neck, and a head exactly the same as the original one quickly grew out.

The Bull Demon King shook his head, and the new head moved freely.

"Father's sperm and mother's blood, not a single bit can be discarded!"

The Bull Demon King shouted as if nothing had happened.

Immediately afterwards, the Bull Demon King made a shocking move.

The Bull Demon King grabbed his "old head" and swallowed it into his stomach without hesitation.

The Bull Demon King ate his own head.
