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

Chapter 318: Shrinking Thousands of Mountains, Taking the Sun and Moon, Swallowing the World! (7k Chapter)
Xiao Chen had carefully read Journey to the West and was well versed in the details therein.

In fact, among Sun Wukong's subordinates there are also monkey monsters.

However, from beginning to end, it is clearly written in black and white in "Journey to the West" that the monkey monster has always been a "Tongbei Ape" rather than a "Tongbi Ape".

It is clearly written in the book, such as:
"I saw a 'monkey' suddenly jump out from the squad, shouting loudly..."

"The Monkey King named the four old monkeys as strong generals; the two red-butted horse monkeys as Marshals Ma and Liu; and the two 'long-backed monkeys' as Generals Beng and Ba."

"Gibbon monkey..."

"Yuan Hong."

Xiao Chen thought of Yuan Hong whom he had met before.

The only time this gibbon macaque appeared in the Three Realms was more than a thousand years ago.

During the Conferred Gods Contest, a monkey named Yuan Hong jumped out and defected to the Shang Dynasty, obstructing the Zhou army and becoming a formidable enemy for the Zhou army in their attack on the Shang Dynasty.

Yuan Hong's abilities are extraordinary. He is not only a talented general, but also a rare commander.

In single combat, Yuan Hong demonstrated amazing strength. Nezha, Wei Hu, Yang Ren... were no match for Yuan Hong.

In the entire Zhou army camp, only Yang Jian can fight against Yuan Hong.

However, Yang Jian and Yuan Hong fought many times, and the demon and the god each used all their skills to the fullest, and they were evenly matched, making it difficult to determine the winner.

In the end there was really no other way.

They can only bully the weak by using their power and then take advantage of magic weapons.

Finally, Nuwa came in person and borrowed the "Map of Mountains, Rivers and States" from Yang Jian. With the help of Nuwa, Yang Jian was able to capture Yuan Hong. It can be seen how powerful Yuan Hong was.

But even so, Yang Jian captured Yuan Hong and held him there for him to chop, but Yang Jian could not kill Yuan Hong.

It can be said that almost no one can kill Yuan Hong.

In the end, Jiang Ziya used Lu Ya's "Flying Sword of Immortal Slaying" to pin down Yuan Hong's soul and kill him.

However, if he was just a talented general, it would be fine. Yuan Hong was nothing more than a reckless general with greater abilities.

But Yuan Hong’s most impressive quality is actually his “talent as a commander”.

Yuan Hong was a talented general who could command tens of thousands of troops. He once planned to break into the camp and led the Shang soldiers to intercept the camp. He directly killed King Wu of Zhou and forced him to flee. Jiang Ziya fled in panic and the Zhou army was greatly defeated.

You have to know that the Zhou army had a total of only 600,000 soldiers and horses, and Yuan Hong killed more than 200,000 of them in this battle, nearly half of them, and almost wiped out the Zhou army.

This battle was the one with the heaviest losses in the Zhou army since its launch, and it had never been so tragic before.

Moreover, in addition to deploying troops, Yuan Hong also knows how to "train troops."

Thousands of little monkey demons from his hometown of Meishan, holding sticks, would come together to beat Yang Jian and force him to retreat.

Whether it's his strength in one-on-one combat, his command ability, or his way of training troops... Yuan Hong is one of the best in the world.

It can be seen that if this gibbon monkey grows up, it will be very powerful and not much inferior to the stone monkey.

However, based on Xiao Chen's last assessment of Yuan Hong's strength, after Yuan Hong was listed on the Conferred God List and became a god of incense and worship, his strength has obviously stagnated.

After all, Yuan Hong was bound by the List of Gods and had no freedom. He could no longer practice the way of immortality and could only practice the way of incense and gods.

However, after all, Yuan Hong killed too many Zhou soldiers and generals, and Zhou was in an opposing camp. Jiang Ziya did not give him a good god title.

The Four Wasted Star Gods conferred upon Yuan Hong were actually miscellaneous star gods with an idle position, and there were almost no temples dedicated to them in the world.

At least Xiao Chen has been in the lower world for a long time, and he has never seen anyone worshipping the "Four Waste Star Gods".

It can be seen that Yuan Hong's incense is better than nothing.

It is even far inferior to the Twenty-Eight Mansions.

What are the four wastes?

In spring, the Wood God is in power, and Metal is imprisoned and useless; in summer, Fire is used and Ren Water is useless; in autumn, Metal is used and Jia Wood is useless; in winter, Water is used and Bing Fire is useless. These are the "Four Wastes".

The four wastes represent bad luck, nothing accomplished, and difficulty in achieving great things.

Yang Jian can not only enjoy the power of the temple's incense, but also continue to practice Shintoism, achieving the two goals at the same time.

More than a thousand years have passed, and one has grown while the other has declined.

Yuan Hong is slightly weaker than Yang Jian today.

As time goes by, this gap may become larger and larger.

This gibbon monkey Yuan Hong will most likely stop here and become a slave under the List of Gods for the rest of his life. It is a pity.

Perhaps just like his title "Four Waste Star Lords", although Yuan Hong was extremely talented, he had bad luck and achieved nothing.

However, the long-armed monster in front of him was most likely a gibbon macaque that was still in development.

If King Jinjiao could accept him as his subordinate and train him well, he would be of great use!
at this time.

This giant monster with long arms used the magical power of "Shrinking Thousand Mountains" to shrink everything within the range of Xuanyin Mountain.

At the same time, the long-armed monster waved his arms again and used the magical power of "Shrinking Thousands of Mountains" to shrink the vast mountains and rivers in front of him, making them as exquisite as miniature landscapes, as if the whole world was in his hands.

With one step, the giant monster with long arms crossed the shrunk mountains and valleys and directly crossed the large space. Its speed was so fast that it was truly astonishing.

This ability to move long distances almost instantly is truly astonishing.

If it is a power-type Taiyi Golden Immortal demon like the Bull Demon King, or a melee-type Taiyi Golden Immortal demon like the Scorpion Spirit, it is actually very difficult to defeat this long-armed demon, and they may be helpless.

This is not a question of who is stronger or weaker, or whether either side can win or lose.

Rather, it’s a question of whether you can reach it.

After all, you first have to break free from the small space world of "Shrinking Thousand Mountains", and this itself requires a lot of mana and time.

Then, after breaking free.

You also have to be able to catch up with the teleporting speed of this long-armed monster who can "shrink thousands of mountains" in order to hit him.

By that time, the long-armed monster would have already run away, so what's the point of fighting?

However, the good thing about him, King Golden Horn, is that he has comprehensive abilities in all aspects, many skills, and is not slow at all.

Faced with this magical power of "shrinking thousands of mountains".

Xiao Chen chose to use the magical power of "Big and Small Ruyi" to deal with it. He shouted softly:
"big!"

As he shouted, a powerful aura instantly spread around Xiao Chen.

The 900-li Xuanyin Mountains were originally shrunk by this long-armed monster.

Xiao Chen's body began to expand rapidly, as if he was engaged in a silent contest with the "shrinkage" of the long-armed monster.

at this time.

The long-armed monster is constantly "shrinking" and Xiao Chen is constantly "growing", it just depends on which one is faster.

When Xiao Chen's body grew to a size of ten thousand feet, it directly broke through the small space world of "Shrinking Thousand Mountains" of the long-armed monster.

Xiao Chen jumped out from this small spatial world of "shrinking thousands of mountains" like a butterfly emerging from a cocoon and regaining his freedom.

Subsequently.

Xiao Chen turned into a dazzling golden light, wearing the "Wind Spirit Feather Robe", and quickly chased after the long-armed monster.

There was a blazing fighting spirit and firm determination in Xiao Chen's eyes, and he vowed to completely conquer this long-armed monster.

"If I can recruit such a powerful demon, he will definitely be a great help to me."

Xiao Chen pondered to himself.

How could we let go of such a powerful demon?
He, the King of the Golden Horn, must find a way to capture him and make him his subordinate!
The long-armed monster was relying on the power of "shrinking thousands of mountains" to continuously cross thousands of mountains and valleys, escaping at high speed, trying to escape Xiao Chen's pursuit. However, no matter how hard he tried, the approaching aura behind him followed him like a shadow, which made him terrified.

"This wild monster was able to break free from my Tonggi Ape clan's magical power of 'Shrinking Thousand Mountains' so quickly and catch up with me!"

The man with long arms knew very well that if he continued to flee, he would find it difficult to escape Xiao Chen's pursuit.

The long-armed monster knew that he was no match for his opponent, so at this critical moment of escaping, he made an unexpected decision.

This giant monster with long arms actually stopped.

The giant monster with long arms took out a small clay statue and three incense sticks from his ear.

The giant demon with long arms carefully placed the clay statue on the ground, then opened his mouth wide and spit out a mouthful of blazing demon fire, instantly lighting the incense.

"Plop" sound.

The long-armed monster actually fell to the ground and shouted:
"Father, save me!"

At this moment, the sky suddenly became gloomy, the clouds changed color, and thunder and lightning roared in the sky, as if some mysterious power was being awakened.

Followed by.

A ray of divine power descended from the sky.

Xiao Chen was on his way and was a little surprised when he saw this scene.

He remembered that when he was in Xuankong Temple, the temple worshipped Wu Qu Star God day and night. He didn't know how long the worship had been going on, but the incense was very strong.

In order to pray for the help of the God of Wu Qu, Master Xuan Kong promised to worship him for the rest of his life and prayed for him to come down to earth.

However, that was in Dongsheng Shenzhou, which could be considered the territory of Heaven.

However, this is Uttarakuru, the base camp of all the demons in the world.

The Heavenly Palace and the monsters of Uttarakuru have always been irreconcilable.

However, the Heavenly Court had tried to encircle and wipe out the monsters in Uttarakuru several times.

Does this monster from Uttarakuru also believe in the gods in heaven?

You...believe in the enemy?
How could this giant monster with long arms believe in the gods in heaven?
Seductress?

Could it be a demon?
Could this giant monster with long arms be a spy planted by Heaven in the demon world?
If this gets out, how can there be a place for this long-armed monster in Uttarakuru?

Moreover, there really are gods who dare to come to this Uttarakuru.

Isn’t this god delivering food?
Do you really think Kunpeng and so many demon saints don’t exist?
However, Xiao Chen was not afraid. For him now, let alone the might of Wu Qu Star Lord coming again.

Even if Wu Qu Star Lord himself came, he could chop him with his Tian Hua Ji.

Just as Xiao Chen was about to speed up his pursuit again, the divine power that descended from the sky suddenly condensed into a dazzling white light, like a meteor in the sky, shooting straight towards an unnamed hill not far away.

This hill is hidden by dense forests and is plain and extremely hidden. It is difficult to find its existence unless you look for it specifically.

It was obviously deliberately concealed very well.

As the white light fell, a small and hidden temple gradually emerged.

The temple gate is closed and surrounded by vines and weeds, as if the power of nature is deliberately protecting the tranquility here.

On the plaque of the temple, the five big characters "God Monkey General" were written in ancient fonts.

The interior of the temple was dark and deep, with only a few faint rays of light shining through the cracks.

There was a clay sculpture that looked like a monkey.

The clay sculpture looked somewhat similar to the long-armed monster.

In particular, this monkey also has a pair of long arms, exactly the same as the long-armed monster.

At this moment, a magical scene happened.

The clay sculpture of the monkey that was originally standing quietly suddenly shattered and turned into pieces that scattered on the ground.

A long-armed white ape dressed in the clothes of a Shang Dynasty general slowly walked out from the fragments of the clay sculpture.

This long-armed white ape is tall, with bulging muscles, and exudes an indescribable murderous aura, as if it is a god of death walking out of an ancient battlefield.

The most bizarre thing is that the head and body of this long-armed white ape are actually separate.

In other words, the head of this long-armed white ape has fallen off.

It was just sewn on the body with gold thread.

It looks a bit weird.

It's really a bit sad.

However, the white ape seemed unaffected. He opened his eyes and a terrifying white light flashed in his eyes.

Followed by.

The long-armed white ape used the "White Rainbow Escape Technique" and turned into a white light. It moved at an astonishing speed and instantly arrived in front of the long-armed monster.

The long-armed white ape stretched out a huge palm and sucked gently. The iron stick in the long-armed monster's hand flew into the white ape's hand obediently as if it was pulled by an invisible force.

The long-armed white ape held the stick at its eyebrows and looked at Xiao Chen coldly. There was both majesty and a hint of vicissitudes in his eyes.

Although the long-armed white ape did not deliberately release his aura, he stood there like a towering mountain, making it impossible to ignore his existence.

There is a natural connection between the strong.

Xiao Chen held the Fang Tian Hua Ji and looked at the long-armed white ape with a look of surprise in his eyes. He said lightly: "Yuan Hong?"

The long-armed white ape in front of him was none other than Yuan Hong, the "Great Monkey General" of the Shang Dynasty.

This was the monkey that was killed by King Wu of Zhou who was fleeing and Jiang Ziya fled in panic. He defeated the Zhou army and slaughtered more than 200,000 of them. He fought against Yang Jian, and only with the help of the "Map of Mountains and Rivers" given by Nuwa and the "Flying Knife of Immortal Beheading" given by Taoist Lu Ya, could he kill it.

Yuan Hong.

The long-armed ape that had changed the situation on the battlefield of Shang and Zhou dynasties appeared in front of him.

He, the King of Golden Horn, had killed more than a thousand heavenly soldiers and generals in the Diyan Mountains, and had fought against the Twenty-Eight Constellations, Marshal Tianpeng, the Thirty-Six Thunder Generals...

The only person he had never fought with was Yuan Hong.

However, Yuan Hong at that time should be considered as a primordial spirit body, with a body like that of a deity.

Yuan Hong's purpose should be that he was interested in the Monkey King, his younger generation, and wanted to have a fight with him, but he did not really use his full strength.

And this current body is obviously Yuan Hong's real body.

At the beginning, after Jiang Ziya killed Yuan Hong with the help of the Flying Sword of Immortal Slaying, the whereabouts of Yuan Hong's body was not explained in the book.

It now seems that Yuan Hong’s body may have been collected by a group of monkeys in Meishan.

Or perhaps, Yuan Hong's body was directly thrown into a mass grave by Zhou's army, and his subordinates went through great pains to find Yuan Hong's body and collect it for him.

However, no one knows why his body ended up in Uttarakuru and was worshipped by another gibbon monkey.

"Since you know my name, why don't you retreat?"

Yuan Hong said calmly.

Yuan Hong was tall and had bulging muscles all over his body, although his head and body were separated and sewn together with gold thread.

There was still an unyielding light flashing in Yuan Hong's cold eyes.

He looked at Xiao Chen indifferently, as if he was looking at a junior who was ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth.

He is Yuan Hong, the former Grand Marshal of the Shang Dynasty.

Even Yang Jian couldn't defeat Yuan Hong, so he had to force the saint to help!
Its head was severed and its body mutilated.

Although his body is dead, his ambition lives on!
……

Deep in the North Sea.

The Demon Master Palace hidden in it stands tall and majestic, exuding a mysterious aura.

Inside the Demon Master’s Palace.

Kunpeng was closing his eyes to rest. His body was huge, like a mountain, and there was a faint demonic aura surrounding him.

Feeling the divine power coming, Kunpeng, who was resting with his eyes closed on the cushion, suddenly opened his eyes, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes.

Kunpeng's figure flashed, and he disappeared in the Demon Master's Palace as if he had teleported.

Just for a moment.

Kunpeng broke through the void, passed through heavy clouds and mist, and came to the sky near Xuanyin Mountain.

Kunpeng's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, scanning everything below. He had obviously noticed the confrontation between Yuan Hong and Xiao Chen.

at this time.

After a while.

The five great demon saints, Bai Ze, Ji Meng, Ying Zhao, Fei Lian and Shang Yang, also arrived one after another.

The lips are dead and the teeth are cold.

Although there were internal conflicts between Kunpeng and the five demon saints, at the critical moment, everyone pointed their guns outward.

Kunpeng, Bai Ze, Ji Meng, Ying Zhao, Fei Lian, and Shang Yang passed by Yuan Hong and Xiao Chen and exchanged glances with each other. Although it was only a brief glance, it seemed as if thousands of words were communicated in it.

"Humph!"

"Humph!"

"Humph!"

……

The six monsters looked at each other again, and after some sparks flew, they snorted coldly, stepped into the void, and disappeared on the spot.

……

"Hahaha."

"Yuan Hong."

"Since I know your name, I will fight you."

Amidst Xiao Chen's wild laughter, he was filled with fighting spirit and great ambition.

He was well aware of Yuan Hong's power, but he had no fear at all.

Now that I have met Yuan Hong, I should fight with him. I should use Yuan Hong as a whetstone to test my sharpness!

At this time, Xiao Chen swallowed the raccoon cat monster that was holding his armpit and meowing, into his stomach in one gulp. Then, without any reservation, he released all his aura and rushed towards Yuan Hong like a violent storm.

He wanted to compete with Yuan Hong.

This is Yuan Hong, a monkey who is proficient in the Eight-Nine Mysterious Arts and has a head of copper and bones of iron, invulnerability to swords and spears, seventy-two transformations, the ability to leave the body, rebirth after decapitation, the White Rainbow Escape Technique...

Yuan Hong was so powerful that even Yang Jian, trying his best, could not defeat him at all.

Now, facing Yuan Hong's true body, who dares to be careless? Who can be careless?
"Good junior, so brave!"

Yuan Hong also sneered, moved his body, and disappeared on the spot like a ghost.

Immediately afterwards, a powerful aura descended from the sky.

The iron stick in Yuan Hong's hand was like a giant pillar supporting the sky, smashing towards Xiao Chen with extremely strong oppressive force.

"Well done!"

Facing this earth-shattering blow, Xiao Chen chuckled, and without dodging or giving way, he directly charged forward with his painted halberd.

There was a loud clang sound.

The two weapons collided in the air, emitting dazzling sparks that seemed to tear the entire sky apart.

Xiao Chen only felt a huge force coming from the halberd. However, Xiao Chen did not retreat. Instead, he used the force to his advantage. He turned his body and the Fang Tian Huaji attacked Yuan Hong again like a swimming dragon.

"Humph."

Yuan Hong snorted coldly again, and his figure flashed like a ghost, easily avoiding Xiao Chen's torrential attack.

The Gibbon family of monkeys is not only known for its pair of iron arms with immense strength and earth-shaking power, but also for being monkeys, its speed and agility are extraordinary.

The iron stick in Yuan Hong's hand was dancing like the wind, with heavy shadows, and he launched a continuous attack on Xiao Chen.

now.

Yuan Hong made full use of this characteristic. The iron stick in his hand was dancing like the wind. The shadows of the stick were heavy, like thousands of troops galloping, and he launched a continuous attack on Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen used offense as defense, wielding the Fang Tian Hua Ji freely in his hand, and the collision with Yuan Hong's Qimei stick produced a series of metallic symphonies.

Every time the weapons collided, it seemed as if a tremendous force of thunder was surging in the void, causing the surrounding space to tremble slightly.

"clang!"

"clang!"

"clang!"

……

I saw a golden light and a white light interweaving in the air, and the Fang Tian Huaji and the Bintie Qimei Stick kept colliding in the air, as if to shatter the entire world.

Every collision was accompanied by the burst of sparks, lighting up the entire sky and the eyes of the spectators below.

The monsters all looked up and saw two figures quickly shuttling through the clouds. The aftermath of the battle alone was shocking.

Xiao Chen held the Fang Tian Hua Ji in his hand, which was shining with golden light, and every strike contained the power to split mountains and crack rocks.

Yuan Hong was wielding an iron stick that reached his eyebrows. The white light was sharp and the shadow of the stick was like a dragon. Wherever it passed, the space seemed to be torn apart, revealing his amazing strength and profound cultivation.

The figures of the two demons moved quickly in the air, sometimes crossing the sky like lightning, leaving dazzling tracks; sometimes sweeping in like a strong wind, bringing endless momentum and pressure.

The battle between the two monsters was fierce and brutal. They each used all their strength to try to defeat the other.

As the battle intensified, dark clouds began to cover the sky, lightning flashed and thunder roared, as if the entire universe was trembling with fear of this confrontation.

Yuan Hong was eager to save his son and tried his best.

As a highly accomplished gibbon, Yuan Hong's pair of iron arms are not only incredibly powerful, but also display the gibbon's signature ability of "holding the sun and the moon".

Yuan Hong's arms were like two dragons, drawing amazing tracks in the air.

Every time it is swung, it brings with it the power of "wind, rain, thunder and lightning", "inducing thunder and setting fire", and "calling the wind and rain".

The Four Mischievous Monkeys are the darlings of heaven and earth and are favored by heaven and earth.

For a moment, nature itself was cheering for the gibbon.

"Take the sun and the moon!"

"The world is turned upside down!"

Seeing that the battle was at a stalemate and difficult to win quickly, Yuan Hong suddenly let out a thunderous roar. His eyes were like burning torches and his whole body's momentum soared to the extreme.

As a member of the Tonggi macaque clan, his innate magical power of "taking the sun and the moon" was suddenly displayed at this moment.

Yuan Hong's pair of iron arms seemed to instantly transform into giant hands that could reach the edge of the universe. With a sudden grab, he crossed the endless space and seemed to pick up the sun, moon, and stars in the ancient universe and hold them tightly in his palms.

The originally vast and boundless sun, moon, and stars suddenly shrank under Yuan Hong's control. They were imprisoned by his powerful magical power and were really like toys in his hands.

This scene was so shocking that all the creatures watching the battle were stunned and filled with unspeakable shock.

For a moment, the sky tilted to the northwest, and the sun, moon and stars moved!

The sky seemed to tilt at this moment, and the sun, moon, and stars all lost their original tracks.

The entire universe was shaken by Yuan Hong's pair of iron arms, and the entire world was trembling, as if it would collapse under the impact of this force.

When this gibbon monkey swung its pair of iron arms, it truly exerted a force that shook the world!
This gibbon was so angry that it seemed as if it wanted to turn the whole world upside down.

Just like the ability of the gibbon monkey clan:
"Shrink thousands of mountains, take the sun and the moon, the world may be vast, but I am the only one who controls it!"

"I can tell good from bad, manipulate the universe, and everything in the world is in my hands!"

At this moment, Yuan Hong truly demonstrated the powerful strength and endless power of the Long-armed Ape clan!
Thousands of mountains shrank under his will, the sun, moon and stars were like playthings in his palms, and the world turned upside down as if it was just a matter of flipping his palm.

"The sun, moon and stars are all in your palm!"

"Throw!"

Yuan Hong roared proudly, his voice filled with absolute confidence in his strength and contempt for his opponent.

With Yuan Hong's light wave, the sun, moon and stars in his hand seemed to lose their original weight, and shot towards Xiao Chen with destructive force like thrown stones.

This moment shocked the world and made the gods and ghosts weep!
The sky was torn apart and full of cracks.

The stars turned upside down and fell one after another, and the whole world was shrouded in a doomsday scene.

This made the surrounding monsters flee in fear!
The full-strength attack of the Long-armed Ape was so terrifying!
However, facing the stars falling like meteors, Xiao Chen did not retreat at all.

On the contrary, a faint smile appeared on Xiao Chen's face.

Xiao Chen laughed and said:

"You can take the sun and the moon, but I can swallow the world!"

"How can you deal with me, 'Sky Devouring Great Sage'?"

After saying that, Xiao Chen opened his big mouth, as if he wanted to swallow the whole world. Xiao Chen's eyes flashed red, as if there was a flame burning. He roared:

"The Maw of the Abyss!"

"Swallow the world!"

As Xiao Chen's roar died down, an endless amount of Taiyin power and devouring power seemed to emerge from his huge mouth.

Xiao Chen actually swallowed all those stars that were falling like meteors into his stomach!

Although the sun, moon, and stars are huge, they are nothing but dead things in front of him, the Sky-Swallowing Great Sage.

Why should he, the Great Sage Swallowing Heaven, care? He can just swallow it in one gulp!
After today, his name “The Great Sage Swallowing Heaven” will spread throughout Uttarakuru.

Even the three realms.
