Jackie Chan Adventures: I have everything I need now

Chapter 164 Divine Capital: Only when the Eight Trigrams are unified can our cooperation begin.
"This child... I get the feeling he's going to betray me."

Shen Du's eyes were thoughtful as he looked down at the little demon dragon surrounded by the seven demon lords, and he murmured to himself.

God didn't just think that the little demon dragon might betray him, but might even betray his old father.

This was because he sensed two forces within the demon dragon.

Those were black energy and righteous energy. Black energy and righteous energy should have been fighting, but now they were peacefully residing in the body of the little demon dragon, which made even the gods wonder.

Righteousness and darkness coexist; besides the Shadow Queen and Tama from Saint Seiya, there's now an additional demon dragon.

The reasons for the possible betrayal are not limited to this. The power of the little demon dragon has been gradually increasing, and it is now able to crush the other six demon lords except for Ximu.

Even the gods themselves have stepped in to fight the demon dragon, and their chances of winning are estimated to be 70% to 30%.

The Legend of the Condor Heroes VII, The Demon Dragon III.

This is why even the gods doubted that the little demon dragon would betray them.

Just then, the void beside the capital city opened up, and Lü Dongbin's figure slowly appeared.

His tone was deep, and he looked down at the figure of the demon dragon below, his eyes filled with apprehension. "Holy Lord, your child, the eight of us have already discovered the source of the righteous energy's attack."

"The righteous spirit wants to use the demon dragon to stop us from leaving this world."

"The dark energy, perhaps anticipating this, formed a temporary alliance with the righteous energy, joining forces in an attempt to hinder us."

"However, it seems that the black mist has not yet noticed your intentions and is not on guard against you, the Lord of Fire."

Upon hearing this, Shen Du frowned.

No wonder, the dark energy and the righteous energy can coexist in the demon dragon's body at the same time, so that's why.

Furthermore, why is it that a little demon dragon, merely by absorbing the eight great demonic energies, can obtain divine power that rivals Ximu and even his old father, the god?

The reason for all this is that the righteous and the evil forces joined forces in an attempt to suppress Lü Dongbin and his eight companions who wanted to leave. The righteous and evil forces in the dark capital are unaware of this.

"Holy Lord, are you ready?"

"Over there, the Bagua formation that connects to the source of righteous energy in the world is ready!"

"As long as you eight demon lords simultaneously unleash the Bagua formation, which also connects to the source of the dark energy!"

"With our combined strength, the Eight Demons and Eight Immortals will surely be able to break free from the limitations of this world and transcend it!"

Shen Du's eyes remained calm as he turned to look at Lü Dongbin and said, "It's impossible to do it now."

"What do you mean?" Lü Dongbin was taken aback.

Shen Du continued, “My seven compatriots all have different goals. It will be extremely difficult for them to set up the Bagua formation of the Black Qi side and unite with your Yin and Yang.”

"My seven compatriots are not on the same boat; each has their own ulterior motives!"

"Six of them are here to reclaim their original demonic energy, while the other one is just watching the show."

"One more thing, do you think they can put aside their past grievances with you, who have been sealing them away for so long, and set up the Bagua formation to transcend the world?"

After saying this, Shen Du sighed deeply and turned to look down.

Upon hearing this, Lü Dongbin was stunned for a long time and did not react.

"What, have you run out of things to say?"

Upon hearing Shen Du's words, Lü Dongbin regained his senses and said in a deep voice, "Lord of Fire, we made an agreement on this matter. You also want to transcend this world."

"If there's no other way, we'll just have to get through the impending global catastrophe together!"

The global catastrophe is the disaster brought about by global integration.

Having tasted the sweetness of victory, the righteous and the evil forces will not give up easily. After preventing Lü Dongbin and his eight companions from escaping the world, the righteous and the evil forces will join forces again to repeat the actions of the capital city from long ago.

Although the eight righteous figures, including Lü Dongbin, and the eight demon lords, representing darkness, can also gain an increase in strength, the dangers are unpredictable.

To avoid this self-destructive act, Lü Dongbin and his eight companions sought to transcend the world.

However, the eight of them alone could not escape the world of Jackie Chan Adventures. They had to discuss with the gods on the dark side to join forces to escape.

The problem is that now, even the gods are telling themselves that there's nothing they can do; it's just a matter of accepting the global catastrophe brought about by the merging of worlds.

There is a way.

Shen Du's lips curled into a smirk, and a wisp of light flashed from his fingertip, gradually revealing the Fire trigram, followed by the other seven trigrams.

“This is…” Lu Dongbin’s eyes flashed as he pondered the intentions of the capital.
However, he soon realized the truth.

The Fire trigram gradually devoured the other seven trigrams, completely transforming into the Yin-Yang Eight Trigrams diagram.

At that moment, Lü Dongbin trembled. "Lord of Fire, if you do this, you'll probably get ganged up on."

"Do you need help? The eight of us can lend you a hand."

The meaning of the divine capital was quite clear, so Lü Dongbin naturally didn't need to ask too many questions and directly asked the divine capital if it would help.

In response, Shen Du still looked down at the scene below, and said meaningfully, "No need, my good child, he will help me!"

"Just as you eight have deduced, the Demon Dragon is a means by which the righteous and the evil forces joined forces to stop you."

"In that case, we must strengthen the power of the little demon dragon."

"But who would have thought that as his power increased, his ambition would also become even greater?"

"Dragging your elders into the hellish world you've created is the best proof of that!"

"Watch, my good child, the little devil dragon will help me purge my beloved people!"

After saying this, Lü Dongbin looked down at the little demon dragon, whose strength even made him somewhat apprehensive. He then said, "In that case, we shall wait for the Fire Lord's good news."

"Once the Lord of Fire achieves his goal, our plan can begin."

“Of course.” Shen Du’s lips curled into a smile.

Then, Lü Dongbin's figure vanished into nothingness, as if he had never been there at all.

Shen Du, on the other hand, clasped his hands together and began chanting the incantation to activate the magic array, gathering the energy of heaven and earth.

Once the magic circle is activated, the time will come for him to seize power.

This is a magic circle that took the gods many years to create.

The Eight Trigrams, the Eight Trigrams, how can they be separated from fire in isolation? Only through completeness can one's strength soar.

Fire is ultimately a single attribute; the Eight Trigrams are the true path.

Meanwhile, below is an abandoned parking lot—or rather, it's no longer an abandoned parking lot.

The reason is that these abandoned vehicles were all reduced to ashes during the fight.

The battlefield now is a flat plain, but there are countless buildings on the side.

Eight enormous figures stood there, inspiring awe and fear in humans not far away.

Its terrifying appearance and overwhelming presence gradually spread, and the entire city was already in ruins, it was only a matter of time before it was reduced to a broken wasteland.
