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

Chapter 266 I will be called “The Heaven-Swallowing Great Sage”!
"In addition to the immortal demon body, this Senior Jiuying also possesses extremely powerful magic weapons such as the 'Sun Essence Wheel' and the 'Moon Essence Wheel'."

"Even among the ten most powerful demon saints in the demon race, Senior Jiuying's strength ranks among the best and he holds a lofty status in the demon race."

However, when he said this, the Lion King sighed and his expression became solemn.

The Lion King continued:
"However, in the ancient war between wizards and liches, even a powerful senior like Jiuying was not spared."

"As a hardliner among the demon race, Senior Jiuying has always insisted on completely annihilating the witch race in order to maintain the demon race's ruling status."

The Lion King's eyes flashed with respect and remembrance for Jiuying, and he continued:

“Therefore, in that great battle that determined the fate of the two tribes, Senior Jiuying resolutely rushed to the front of the demon tribe and fought a desperate battle with the Twelve Ancestral Witches.”

"However, Senior Jiuying's tough attitude also made him the main target of the Wu Clan."

"In the battle with the Twelve Ancestral Witches, Senior Jiuying suffered an unprecedented siege."

"Especially the ancestor of lightning, Yanzi. He held a witch arrow in his hand, his body was as fast as lightning, and he shot nine arrows in a row in the sky. Each arrow contained a terrifying force that could destroy the heavens and the earth."

"Nine wizard arrows were shot accurately and simultaneously at the nine heads of Senior Jiuying."

"Senior Jiuying unfortunately died in the end."

After hearing this, Xiao Chen roughly understood what was going on.

After all, the three-headed snake and the nine-headed snake are both multi-headed snakes, and there may be some blood relationship between them.

Xiao Chen nodded thoughtfully and asked:

"Could it be that the three-headed green snake demon has some relationship with Senior Jiuying? Is their appearance related to this?"

Upon hearing this, the Lion King nodded and said in a deep voice:
"Yes, the 'Three-Headed Green Snake Demon' is my younger sister, and her name is 'Nine-Headed Green Jun'."

"And the other 'two-headed golden snake demon' is the elder sister, her name is 'nine-headed golden rainbow'."

"These two sister monsters are both descendants of Jiuying."

The Lion King continued to explain:

"Senior Jiuying is an innate creature born from the beginning of chaos, from heaven and earth. He is born powerful."

"They were born later in life. Although they are not as powerful as the Nine Infants, they have inherited some of the Nine Infants' blood and power, so their strength is not weak."

"The Nine Infants Clan has a unique way of cultivation."

"Every time their strength improves, they will condense another head, and each head contains different abilities."

"Until they condense nine heads, they will be able to reach the same realm as Senior Jiuying."

The Lion King's words revealed his fear of the three-headed green snake monster's strength, and he continued:
"Among these two snake monsters, the three-headed green snake monster 'Nine-headed Qingjun' is the most powerful."

"She has now cultivated to the pinnacle of Taiyi Jinxian and condensed three heads. If she condenses one more, she will be able to enter the ranks of Daluo Jinxian."

"Well, that's it..."

After hearing this, Xiao Chen understood the background of these two snake monsters.

The demon race is different from the human race.

The human race’s cultivation focuses on cultivating talent, understanding, and so on.

But in the demon clan, it actually depends on bloodline.

Sun Wukong is the immortal stone when the world was first created. He was nurtured by the beauty of nature and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon, and became an immortal. With heaven and earth as his parents, he can actually be considered an innate god and a demon.

The Golden Cicada, the Scorpion Demon, the Bull Demon King, the Nine-Spirited Saint, the Golden-Winged Peng Eagle...all of these monsters have powerful bloodlines.

If his bloodline is not good, like his, the Golden Horned King, he has to start developing from a tadpole and climb up step by step.

For most little monsters, what they can do is Xiao Zuanfeng, Benboerba, Baboerben... That's the limit.

As for those monsters with powerful bloodlines, they are very powerful when they are born. They often directly skip the step of being little monsters and become big monsters.

Especially the Bull Demon King, although he likes to eat, drink, show off and indulge in pleasure, he is a bit lazy in cultivation.

But the Bull Demon King possesses the blood of the fierce beast "獓因", which makes his body extremely strong, like a moving mountain, indestructible, and can be called the "Earth-shaking Divine Bull."

Moreover, this bloodline also endowed the Bull Demon King with many talents and supernatural powers.

In comparison, for those with average bloodline, such as the Great Sage Huangfeng, although he has a deep understanding of the way of wind, he can even learn great magical powers such as the "Three Flavors Divine Wind".

However, the level of cultivation of the Great Sage Huang Feng is limited by his bloodline. Without a great opportunity, the level of Taiyi Golden Immortal may be the highest level he can reach.

Lu Ya is the son of the Golden Crow, Kong Xuan is the son of the Phoenix. These most powerful monsters in the world all have extraordinary bloodlines.

Among the demon clan, the Demon King is the most respected, followed by the Demon Saint.

These "Nine-headed Qingjun" and "Nine-headed Jinni", if they are both the bloodline of the Nine-infant Demon Saint, then their potential can actually be compared with the Golden-winged Roc, the Peacock King... They can almost be called the strongest second-generation demons in the world.

However, the bloodline of monsters is not eternal and unchanging. In fact, for most of them, the power of their bloodline will gradually weaken over time.

Among the demon race, the first generation of innate creatures are undoubtedly the strongest, followed by the second generation, who will also inherit great supernatural powers.

But by the third and fourth generations of demons... their bloodline is actually very thin and their strength is greatly reduced.

"I have also thoroughly investigated the whereabouts of the Nine-Headed Insect. He is a descendant of the Demon Saint Ghost Carriage, and his name is 'Nine-Headed Ghost Carriage'."

"Gui Che was originally a great general of the bird tribe. When the dragon, phoenix, and unicorn tribes were fighting for supremacy, all three tribes perished. The phoenix tribe was also defeated and withdrew from the stage of the struggle."

"My demon clan has risen, and Guiche has joined my demon clan and become a member of my demon clan."

When the Lion King mentioned the Nine-Headed Insect, he didn't look happy. He said with a fake smile:
"However, Guiche also died during the war between the witches and liches."

"Nine-headed monster, ghost car..."

Xiao Chen was not surprised by this.

The "insect" in the world of Journey to the West and the "insect" in later generations have completely different meanings.

"Insect" does not refer to the tiny creatures in later generations, but was a general term for animals in ancient times.

Within the Zhoutian, there are five immortals, namely heaven, earth, gods, humans and ghosts; there are five insects, namely insects, scales, hairs, feathers and insects.

To put it bluntly, everything is a bug!
Humans are actually a kind of insect.

Liceworm: Also known as "naked insect", it refers to creatures without hair, feathers, scales or armor.

In ancient concepts, humans were classified as insects, and were the leaders of insects.

The tiger is also a bug, it can be considered a "big caterpillar", or "big bug" for short.

Snakes are also insects, they can be considered "scaly insects", or "long insects" for short.

Feathered insects refer to birds covered with feathers, with the phoenix being the leader.

This nine-headed insect has "feathers that are like brocade, and a body that is like cotton wool. Its two feet are sharp like hooks, and its nine heads are gathered together. When it spreads its wings, it is very good at flying, and its eyes often flash with golden light."

This looks exactly like a ghost car.

The Nine-headed Insect is the Nine-headed Feathered Insect, and it has some blood relationship with the Nine-headed Bird Ghost Car, so it is not surprising.

"The monster opposite with a bird's head and a deer's body is called 'Fei Ni', and is the descendant of the demon saint Fei Lian."

When the Lion King said this, his tone became noticeably heavier.

After all, Jiuying and Guiche have both fallen, and the dead Demon Saint is ultimately just a memory in history.

But Fei Lian is indeed a living demon saint, which makes things a little tricky.

"Fei Lian..."

Xiao Chen was quite familiar with this name.

"Fei Lian" is also written as "Fei Lian". It is a magical creature with a body like a deer, a head like a sparrow, horns and a snake tail, and wings on its back.

When its wings are spread, they can cover the sky and block out the sun. It is a natural wind-type beast.

Fei Lian is proficient in the art of controlling and collecting wind, and is known as the "Lord of Wind". He is also one of the ten great demon saints.

Fei Lian was a warlike person. When Huangdi and Chiyou were fighting for the throne of the emperor, Fei Lian helped Chiyou and participated in the fight against Huangdi.

"We played against them last time."

"Both sides suffered some losses." Bull Demon King added:

"Later, we agreed to have another fight a few months later."

"But for some reason, the other side suddenly changed their attitude and proposed to use a round-robin tournament to decide the winner."

"I discussed it with the Lion King and agreed."

The Bull Demon King introduced to Xiao Chen.

"Wagon war."

Xiao Chen repeated the word, and he already had a general understanding of the next battle method.

A round-robin match means that each side sends someone to the field to compete with each other, taking turns until one side admits defeat or the two sides reach some kind of agreement.

This kind of round-robin battle is usually mainly for sparring, not for life or death.

After all, the life-and-death battle is a round-robin fight, so everyone rushes forward, using their own methods to knock the opponent down together.

"Could it be that the other party saw the Bull Demon King's strength last time and became afraid of him?"

"So you want to change the way you gamble?"

Xiao Chen pondered to himself.

"After all, they are the descendants of the Demon Saint. It would be bad if we offended them completely."

The Bull Demon King's voice interrupted Xiao Chen's thoughts. He waved his hand and explained:

"Just compete with them, decide the winner, and win the hill back."

"This is Uttarakuru after all. Are we considered foreign monsters, or..."

"Brother, I understand."

Xiao Chen responded.

The Bull Demon King didn't finish his words, but Xiao Chen understood what he meant.

"Nine heads of green bamboo, nine heads of golden rainbow, nine heads of ghost carriage, flying lion..."

"Bull Demon King, Lion King, Monkey King, and I, the Golden Horned King..."

Xiao Chen was secretly calculating the opponent's lineup in his mind.

Although Jiuying and Guiche have fallen, their descendants still possess strength that cannot be underestimated.

Fei Lian is a living demon saint, and his offspring Fei Ni is undoubtedly a powerful opponent.

In the demon world, there are not as many rules and etiquette as humans, and the law of the jungle is the only rule.

The strong are respected and the weak are bullied, that's all.

I, King Jinjiao, have the power. Once I, King Jinjiao, raise my flag, the demon tribe will come to join me.

Just like the Flower-Fruit Mountain where Sun Wukong now lives and the seventy-two demon kings, they all came about in this way.

When Sun Wukong raised his golden hoop, his powerful abilities were revealed. The bears, deer, wild boars, mountain cattle, antelopes and the seventy-two demon kings all came to pay homage to the Monkey King.

When he, the King of the Golden Horn, first came to Uttarakuru, he wanted to make a name for himself so that he could establish his own power and recruit talented demons.

Beating an unknown person is nothing and does not show one's ability. Beating a descendant of the demon saint can show one's fame.

"And the Nine Infants, Ghost Cart, and Fei Lian behind them..."

Xiao Chen thought of these demon saints.

If it was an ordinary wild monster, he would just kill it directly. But if these Nine-Headed Qingjun, Nine-Headed Jinni and Fei Ni were all descendants of the Demon Saint, then it would be a bit troublesome.

Jiuying and Guiche are both dead, but Feilian is still alive.

On the one hand, he came to Uttarakuru to help the Lion King, and on the other hand, he also came to Uttarakuru to plan a retreat.

He came here to seek the last burrow of the "cunning rabbit has three burrows".

He killed the gods of heaven in Nanshanbuzhou and the Bodhisattva of Lingshan in Xiniuhezhou. Once these things are exposed, he will face endless pursuit and encirclement.

This Uttarakuru may be his last retreat.

If he kills the descendant of the demon saint in Uttarakuru again, there will be no place for him in the three realms.

You have to win, and you have to win beautifully and make others convinced.

However, the challenges ahead are not easy.

What they are about to face are a group of descendants of the Demon Saint. These second-generation demons have deep roots and powerful forces in Uttarakuru.

"Hey……"

"If that doesn't work, I'll just give up my hill."

As the Lion King was talking, he suddenly became dejected.

After all, the opponents are a group of local second-generation monsters, and they can only be regarded as a group of foreign monsters.

Upon hearing this, the Bull Demon King was furious. He slammed the table hard, causing the dishes to jingle, and shouted:
"Hey, second brother, what discouraging words are you saying?"

"We, the demon race, have been fearless since ancient times. When have we ever been afraid of a challenge?"

"Everyone makes a bet, makes a bet, and speaks based on their ability."

"Why should we be afraid of his demon saint descendants!"

"That Demon Saint Fei Lian is at least an elder of my demon clan. He wouldn't come here to bully the weak just because his kid lost a fight."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen smiled and consoled:
"Second brother, don't be afraid of him."

"We are brothers together. We dare to kill the gods in heaven, so why should we be afraid of a group of demon saint descendants?"

"Let them know the abilities of us 'foreign monsters'."

"Let them know how powerful we brothers are!"

The words of Bull Demon King and Xiao Chen aroused the fighting spirit of the Lion King. He picked up a bowl of wine, drank it all, and shouted loudly:
"Okay, fuck him!"

“As the saying goes: The waves ahead push the waves ahead, and each generation is stronger than the previous one.”

"So what if they are ancient demon saints? They were just born earlier and have a greater reputation."

"We brothers must not only become demon saints, but also great saints of the demon race!"

"Then the Monkey King brother will be called 'The Great Sage Equaling Heaven.'"

"Let's also come up with a resounding name."

"Hahaha, then I, the Bull Demon King, will be called 'The Great Sage Ping Tian'!"

The Bull Demon King picked up the wine bowl and drank it all in one gulp, full of heroic spirit.

"Then I, the Lion King, will be called 'The Great Sage Who Moves Mountains'."

The Lion King was not to be outdone. He picked up a bowl of wine and drank it all in one gulp with a deafening sound.

"Then I, the Golden Horned King, will be known as... 'Sky-Swallowing Great Sage'!"

Xiao Chen thought about it and smiled.

He is Duobao Golden Toad, but "Duobao Great Sage" is obviously not appropriate and lacks momentum.

There are many creatures in the world that can swallow things, such as Taotie, peacock, Dapeng, alligator, dragon, lion, python, cormorant, turtle, catfish, carp, eel... All kinds of fish, snakes, birds, and scaled animals have the ability to swallow.

Just because of his nickname "Great Sage Devouring Heaven", it is not easy to expose his background directly.

"Hahaha, eldest brother, second brother, fourth brother."

"Then I, the Monkey King, will be called 'The Great Saint of Ventilation'!"

At this moment, the hearty laughter of the Monkey King was heard from the entrance of the Nameless Cave.
