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

Chapter 457: Amidst the Troubled Army
"King Jinjiao, what should we do now?"

The Halloween Dragon Girl asked Xiao Chen in an anxious tone through the "Mosquito Brand Wireless Phone".

"Hey……"

Xiao Chen sighed helplessly and sent back a low but steady voice:

"Now, we are in the midst of this chaotic army, let's survive first."

"Emperor Donghua has caused such a big commotion, how could the Heavenly Court sit idly by and watch? Heavenly soldiers will surely come to rescue him."

“The greater the risk, the greater the reward.”

"As long as we can hold on until then, we will have accomplished a great feat!"

"At that time, the title of Golden Armor Heavenly Soldier will be a sure thing, and the position of Heavenly General is also possible. There will even be a chance to go to the Lingxiao Palace to meet the Jade Emperor."

"It's a good opportunity to see if the Nine-Leaf Ganoderma is in the Lingxiao Palace."

At this moment, there are three paths in front of Xiao Chen.

First, he revealed his true identity as the Golden Horned King, used his magical powers, and escaped in the chaos.

But this was meaningless, and all his previous efforts were wasted. His plan of "stealing treasures from heaven" was completely ruined, and his work was in vain.

Secondly, he used this identity of a heavenly soldier to join the "anti-heaven army" of Emperor Donghua, and together with the anti-heaven army of Emperor Donghua, he attacked the Lingxiao Palace and directly snatched the nine-leaf Ganoderma lucidum in the chaos in the Lingxiao Palace.

But, can Emperor Donghua defeat the Jade Emperor?

Xiao Chen felt that this was not very reliable.

Although Emperor Donghua is quite powerful, the Jade Emperor has been in charge of Heaven for many years and has a deep foundation. How can he be overthrown just by Emperor Donghua's words?
Can Emperor Donghua reach the Lingxiao Palace?
Third, finally, there is another way.

They continued to serve as heavenly soldiers, holding on and waiting for rescue from heaven.

But at this critical moment, how could Xiao Chen only pin his hopes on this path?
He already had a more comprehensive plan in mind.

“But, Ao Yao, if we reach the last step, the situation will be bad.”

Xiao Chen's voice became particularly solemn:
"I will swallow you whole, hide you in my 'small world in my stomach', and take you away."

"Then we hid in the dark."

"Or we can just blend into the chaos of Emperor Donghua's army, join Emperor Donghua's camp, and change our identities."

"If this Emperor Donghua attacks Lingxiao Palace directly, the heaven will be in chaos and will be unable to take care of itself."

"We searched directly in the heavens, snatched the Nine-Leaf Ganoderma Lucidum, hid it among the Donghua Emperor's chaotic army, and waited for an opportunity to escape to the lower world."

Xiao Chen calculated.

The sorrow and the blessing of the blessings, the blessings of the blessings.

Blessing and misfortune are like a pair of twin brothers, interdependent and transforming each other.

Emperor Donghua's rebellion might not be a bad thing for him.

If he could cleverly take advantage of the situation where Emperor Donghua was rebelling against the Heaven, he would not only be able to escape unscathed, but also achieve his goal of obtaining the Nine-Leaf Ganoderma Lucidum.

Of course, this mainly depends on how far Emperor Donghua can go in attacking the Heavenly Palace.

The Halloween Dragon Girl frowned slightly, sighed softly, and said with her red lips:
"This is the only solution for now."

After she finished speaking, her beautiful eyes moved around as she vigilantly observed the battle situation around her. The sword in her hand flickered with a faint light, as if she was ready to respond to sudden changes at any time.

……

Ao Bing stood tall and straight, looking very heroic, but at this moment his eyes were wide open with anger, as if there was flame burning in them.

He looked at Emperor Donghua, clasped his fists and saluted:
"Your Majesty, that Wang Lingguan was so bold that he dared to kill the emperor and empress."

"Such crimes are too numerous to list. How can we spare his life?"

"Why not capture him, behead him and offer him as a sacrifice to comfort the Emperor and Empress, and boost the morale of our army!"

At this point, Ao Bing turned his gaze to General Juanlian and suggested:

"This general who rolls up the curtain is a trusted confidant of the Jade Emperor, so he should also be executed."

Emperor Donghua's face was as dark as ink. He looked at Wang Lingguan, and a bone-chilling chill emanated from his whole body.

Emperor Donghua was deeply resentful of Wang Lingguan for killing the Peony Fairy, and said:
"Accurate."

Ao Bing was wearing the Ten Thousand Dragon Armor and holding two "Panlong Handle Hammers". He paused with his feet and shot out like a cannonball, heading straight for Wang Lingguan, shouting:
"Wang Lingguan, give me your life!"

In an instant, the situation changed.

Among the Nine Elders of Yingzhou, General Meng Hao, General Cang He, General Chen Ye, General Lian Song and other generals, were like sharp arrows triggered by a startled bow. They flew out from the formation like a meteor chasing the moon and went straight to attack Wang Lingguan, General Juanlian and others.

General Meng Hao was a burly man with a powerful aura. He held a Fang Tian Hua Ji in his hand, with the tip of the halberd flashing with a sharp cold light. He stabbed Wang Lingguan's throat like a dragon emerging from the sea.

He shouted:
"Wang Lingguan, you have committed many evil deeds today and helped the Heavenly Court to commit atrocities. Don't even think about escaping!"

General Cang He had a stern expression and murderous intent in his eyes.

The Cang He sword in his hand had a slender blade and a cold glow. With the power to destroy the heavens and the earth, he fiercely chopped at General Juanlian and roared:
"Prepare to die, little boy!"

General Chen Ye's figure was elusive, like a ghost. He took mysterious steps and the sword in his hand was like a meteor chasing the moon. He attacked Wang Lingguan from the side. His sword moves were strange and unpredictable, sometimes like a spirit snake spitting out its tongue, sometimes like a fleeting shadow. Every move was aimed directly at Wang Lingguan's vital points, making it impossible to defend against.

"Wang Lingguan, accept your fate!"

General Lian Song was not willing to be outdone. He formed seals with his hands and muttered something.

In an instant, brilliant and dazzling magical lights burst out from his palms. The fire magic was like a red flame rising into the sky, burning everything in the world; the poison magic was like the miasma of the underworld, corroding bones and souls.

All kinds of magic spells bloomed like fireworks on the battlefield, dazzling and bright, but hiding deadly murderous intent, covering Wang Lingguan like an overwhelming force.

……

Behind them, tens of thousands of immortal soldiers surged like a black tide. Their shouts and cries caused the sea of ​​clouds to surge and the sky and earth to change color. They swept towards the heavenly soldiers and generals led by Wang Lingguan and General Juanlian.

Wang Lingguan and General Juanlian immediately led their heavenly soldiers and generals to fight back.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

“Clang, clang, clang!”

"Clang, clang, clang!"

……

In an instant, thunder roared on the battlefield, the sound of weapons colliding was endless, and sparks flew.

Blood gushed out and splashed everywhere on the battlefield.

……

When Sun Wukong made trouble in Heaven, he was able to contend against the 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals. That was because Sun Wukong had an indestructible body that was immune to all kinds of attacks.

No matter how you chop Sun Wukong's body with a knife, chop with an axe, stab with a spear or cut with a sword, you cannot hurt him. Even if you set it on fire, you cannot burn him. Even if you hit him with lightning chips and nails, you cannot damage him in the slightest.

Sun Wukong's physical resistance and spell resistance are both maxed out. No matter what kind of physical damage or spell damage it is, when it hits Sun Wukong, it is like a drop in the ocean, hardly causing any waves, let alone causing any serious damage.

Even when the "Shangbaoqinjinba" made by Taishang Laojun himself with his hammer hit Sun Wukong on the head directly, Sun Wukong's scalp would not be broken.

Throughout the journey to the West, there were endless monsters and demons along the way, and magical weapons and supernatural powers were dazzling.

However, the only means that could truly threaten Sun Wukong's life was the "Yin Yang Qi Bottle" held by the golden-winged Roc.

Other magic weapons, such as the Vajra Cutter, the Human Seed Bag, the Golden Rope, the Banana Fan... can only temporarily control Sun Wukong but cannot take his life.

The Scorpion Demon's poisonous horse-falling stake, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord's Thousand-Eyed Golden Light Array... these methods can only hurt Sun Wukong and cause him some physical pain, but cannot take his life.

After Sun Wukong recovered a little, he was full of energy and made a big fuss again.

Sun Wukong is praised as: "He cannot be burned in fire, nor drowned in water. He is a bright Mani pearl that cannot be harmed by swords or spears!"

In addition to high physical defense, Sun Wukong also has full "endurance".

When Sun Wukong fights, he never gets tired, as if he has no idea what tiredness is. After fighting for dozens of rounds, it is often the opponent who becomes weak first, gasping for breath, unable to hold on, and eventually flees in embarrassment.

Sun Wukong fought for three days and three nights, but he never felt tired. He never complained of being tired, and his strength was inexhaustible. That’s why Sun Wukong could cause havoc in the Heavenly Palace and face 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals alone.

However, the Wang Lingguan and the General Juanlian in front of him were very different from Sun Wukong.

Although Wang Lingguan is an extraordinary martial arts master and extremely brave, he can compete with Sun Wukong for a short time and fought a fierce battle with the monkey outside the Lingxiao Palace, but he is ultimately a human being of flesh and blood.

Although Wang Lingguan has a golden light that protects his body, that golden light may be able to resist some ordinary magic weapons, but in the face of a real life and death crisis, it is far from reaching the state of being indestructible and immune to all magic.

Even Wang Lingguan couldn't resist the thousands of magical instruments coming at him.

The same is true for General Juanlian. Although he looks majestic and awe-inspiring on weekdays, he also has a body of quicksand and is quite resistant to blows. He can survive even if he is hit by hundreds of ordinary swords and knives.

But under the siege of tens of thousands of immortal soldiers, General Juanlian was no match for him.

At this moment, the immortals from overseas swarmed in like a swarm of locusts, holding magical weapons in their hands, shining with light and exuding a chilling chill.

They surrounded Wang Lingguan, the fifty spiritual officials, the general who rolled up the curtain, and a group of heavenly soldiers and generals.

The light of the magic weapons intertwined together to form a huge cage, trapping them inside.

Since Wang Lingguan killed the Peony Fairy, he naturally became the focus of attention and was taken care of by the immortal army under the command of Emperor Donghua.

"Open it for me!"

Wang Lingguan held the golden whip and swung it vigorously, with the shadow of the whip like a dragon, trying to break through the heavy siege. However, the magic weapons of the overseas immortals came like a rainstorm, one after another, making him overwhelmed.

Every time the magic weapon hit Wang Lingguan, his blood surged, and the golden light that protected his body gradually became dim.

"kill!"

General Curtain-Puller waved Thoreau's staff, which was shining with light and had infinite power.

But the number of immortal soldiers around General Juanlian increased, drowning him like a tide. General Juanlian gradually developed wounds on his body, and blood stained his armor red, but he still gritted his teeth and persisted, refusing to give up a single hope of survival.

As the saying goes: "Soldiers fight soldiers, generals fight generals."

On the battlefield, the situation is clear and each side shows its strengths.

The divine generals under the command of Emperor Donghua set their sights on Wang Lingguan and General Juanlian, and like a pack of wolves hunting, they attacked them in groups, hoping to chop off their heads and gain military merit.

And those stragglers, like sharks smelling blood, all set their sights on the heavenly soldiers.

For a while.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

"Kill, kill, kill!"

……

The shouts of killing shook the sky, the sounds of swords clashing were endless, and the entire sea turned into a bloody Shura field.

The fifty spiritual officials are all elite warriors of the Heavenly Court. They are usually very majestic and at this moment they are not willing to be outdone.

They drew their weapons, stood back to back, formed a tight circle, supported each other, and tried to find a glimmer of hope in the chaos.

However, the immortal army was like a surging tide, coming in wave after wave.

They are numerous and powerful, and they are going to completely overwhelm the fifty spiritual officials.

The fifty spiritual officials gradually became exhausted, and the weapons in their hands seemed to be weighed down by a thousand-pound weight, becoming extremely heavy.

The battle became more and more brutal. They fell one after another, and almost the entire army was wiped out. Only a few people were still struggling to hold on.

Hundreds of heavenly soldiers and generals of the "Heavenly Turtle Catching Team" also suffered heavy casualties.

The originally neat formation has now become scattered, with only a hundred or so defeated soldiers left, struggling to hold on under the siege of the anti-heaven army.

Facing this violent storm-like siege by tens of thousands of troops, Xiao Chen remained calm and showed no fear at all.

He has the heart of "Baolian Lantern", which is equivalent to full endurance.

What's more, he has a "magic body", and his physical defense and magical defense have reached perfection and are indestructible.

He, the King of Golden Horn, is equivalent to another "Sun Wukong".

The human wave tactic was of no use to him, King Golden Horn. It was like an ant trying to shake a tree. It was completely useless.

But the Halloween Dragon Girl could not resist the attack of the hordes of heavenly soldiers.

She saw those heavenly soldiers rushing towards her like wolves and tigers, with weapons in their hands flashing cold light and carrying fierce murderous intent, as if they wanted to eat her alive.

The Halloween Dragon Girl has always lived a life of luxury, and her fighting skills are actually average.

There is a huge difference between sparring and fighting on the battlefield.

In daily life, the key to sparring is to stop at the right time.

But the scene on the battlefield was completely different.

There is no distinction between high and low here, only between life and death.

There are no rules on the battlefield, such as no magic weapons, no poison... whatever. There is only naked killing, with only one purpose - "to take your life!"

The overseas immortals under the command of Emperor Donghua are all very powerful. They are all real immortals who have practiced hard in the fairy mountains and blessed lands for many years.

They also possess unique skills and magical weapons, and are not comparable to the idle ghost soldiers of the wild demon king in the lower world like the Black Tiger Demon Lord.

At this moment, the Halloween Dragon Girl was in the midst of a chaotic army that was like the Asura Hell. The shouts of killing were like thunder, which made her eardrums hurt. The sound of swords clashing was like the impact of metal and stone, and it never stopped. The smell of blood mixed with the smell of dust came at her face like a surging tide.

When had she ever encountered such a dangerous and desperate situation where her life was hanging by a thread?

The Halloween Dragon Girl felt the pressure like a mountain. The weapon in her hand gradually became extremely heavy, and it became increasingly difficult for her to parry.

Every time the weapons collided, it was like a huge hammer hitting her, causing her arms to go numb and her knuckles to ache slightly. Her delicate body was shaking involuntarily, as if she was a small boat in a strong wind that could be swallowed up by the raging waves at any time.

Sweat dripped down her forehead like beads from a broken string, soaking the clothes of the Halloween Dragon Girl.

Her hair was soaked with sweat and stuck to her cheeks in a mess. There were a few streaks of blood in her hair, and it was unclear whether it was her own blood or the blood of immortals that splashed on her. She looked extremely disheveled, completely lacking her former nobility and elegance.

All the skills she had learned in the Dragon Palace were completely useless in this cruel and violent chaos where life and death were unpredictable, like a trapped beast with its hands and feet tied.

Those moves that were usually agile and exquisite seemed so pale and powerless in the midst of this densely packed army, and in the air filled with murderous aura and blood.

At this moment, in the midst of the chaotic army and the endless charge, the Halloween Dragon Girl has been exhausted and can no longer hold on.

"Ao Yao, don't panic, and stand behind me."

Seeing that the All Saints Dragon Girl was exhausted and her delicate body was crumbling, like a candle in the wind that could go out at any time and could not hold on any longer, Xiao Chen quickly sent a message to Ao Yao.

Then Xiao Chen flashed and instantly stood in front of the Halloween Dragon Girl. Then he reached out with his big hand and carried the already shaky Halloween Dragon Girl steadily on his back.

"King of the Golden Horn..."

The Halloween Dragon Girl only felt a warm and solid force enveloping her, as if she had found a safe haven in this cold and cruel battlefield.

Xiao Chen pondered in his heart.

He showed some of his strength this time. If someone asks him about it in the future, he can just declare:
"Between life and death, the mind becomes clear and the realm breaks through."

It is common for cultivators to achieve breakthroughs on the battlefield.

After all, in this battlefield where swords and lives hang on a thread, the fear of life and death is like an invisible blade that can force people into desperate situations, but it can also become a rare opportunity to break through shackles and comprehend the mystery.

I don’t know how many people have been able to break through the confusion and attain enlightenment at this critical moment of life and death.

Think about this.

"open!"

Xiao Chen's tongue burst into thunderous roar, and the spear in his hand shook violently.

Halberd, fusion of gun.

He was already proficient in the art of using the Fang Tian Hua Ji, so his spear skills were naturally superb and perfect as well.

I saw a flash of cold light first, and then a gun shot out like a dragon.
