Jackie Chan Adventures: I have everything I need now
Chapter 245 The tower breaks, Li Jing panics, Nezha draws his spear, they're all cunning old de
"Your Majesty, this mountain is called Bull Demon Mountain. Not long ago, a powerful demon killed the demon king of this mountain and inherited the territory of the former demon king."
"However, I have only heard about it and have never actually seen what it looks like."
"Moreover, I have been the local official for many years and have never heard of any ancient formations on Mount Niumo."
The local earth god of Niu Mo Mountain in Beiju Luzhou respectfully spoke to Li Jing beside him.
To subdue the demons of Beiju Luzhou, it is natural to ask the local earth god appointed by the Heavenly Court to reveal the origin of the mountain demon king.
"Oh, really?!"
Li Jing lowered his eyes in deep thought. His own rebellious son had actually fallen to the point of having to call for reinforcements. It seemed that this demon king was quite powerful.
However, he now commands ten thousand heavenly soldiers and generals, who have set up a vast and inescapable formation. They can even capture Nezha, that rebellious son, let alone the demon king who is hiding in the mountains and can only eke out a living by relying on ancient formations.
Thinking of this, Li Jing ordered the heavenly soldiers and generals around him to unleash their respective supernatural powers, such as thunder, fire, lightning, water, and raging winds, sand and stones, all of which crashed down on Bull Demon Mountain, causing the earth to shake and the mountains to tremble in an instant.
"Hahaha!"
"I, the Heavenly King, will raze this Bull Demon Mountain to the ground. I refuse to believe that the demon king inside won't come out!"
"This mere ancient formation is nothing to me. I, the Heavenly King, only need to avoid its sharp edge, let the demon king on the other side come out on his own, and then capture and kill him. The merits of the Heavenly Dao will be more than enough!"
Li Jing laughed loudly, and the heavenly soldiers and generals who had not yet made a move all offered their congratulations.
At this moment, countless divine powers crashed down on Bull Demon Mountain, instantly shattering the entire mountain into pieces.
Nezha, hidden in another part of the sky, couldn't help but gasp as he watched this scene.
This is absolutely outrageous!
But that’s it!
Just what he wanted.
That demon god will surely be furious; that old bastard Li Jing will either die or be crippled.
Just as numerous supernatural powers were destroying Bull Demon Mountain to pieces, a figure, emanating wisps of hazy chaotic power, spanned across Bull Demon Mountain.
Looking up, he unleashed a light barrier that instantly blocked the endless stream of divine powers, lightning, and fire attacking him.
Looking down from their vantage point, Li Jing and the others realized that the Demon King had finally given up and had escaped on his own, and they burst into laughter.
As they looked down at the towering figure, a terrifying aura gradually lingered in the sky, and strands of law power shook the void, as if if they made a move at any moment, the surrounding void would shatter completely like glass.
Since the Investiture of the Gods era, when the Five Saints fought a great battle and rebuilt the primordial world by refining the earth, fire, wind, and water, the Heavenly Saints have been forbidden from setting foot in the primordial world.
This is because the destructive power of a sage is unimaginable; a single strike could shatter the current primordial world.
If a Quasi-Saint were to fight with all his might, and the battle dragged on for too long, the entire Primordial World would likely suffer the same fate.
When a Great Luo Golden Immortal goes all out in a battle, the Primordial World can still hold on, but the surrounding areas suffer greatly.
"What do you mean?"
A hint of anger flashed in Shen Du's eyes. He had already let Nezha go, after all, the other party's background was too powerful to be trifled with.
But the heavenly soldiers and generals before him, and the one leading them who was carrying a pagoda, seemed somewhat familiar.
He may be Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, but so what? Compared to Nezha, Li Jing's background is worlds apart.
Anyone who dares to provoke me will only face certain death.
In the Lich Age, even a Great Immortal could be easily killed by kicking a random person off the roadside.
During the Investiture of the Gods era, the prestige of the Great Luo Golden Immortals gradually increased, at least not as weak as during the Lich and Demon era.
By the time of Journey to the West, even the Great Luo Golden Immortals were rarely seen.
Even the number of Taiyi Golden Immortals is pitifully small.
What powerful family would be so idle as to provoke a Grand Immortal and create enmity and karma?
"You fiend, listen up! I am Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King of Heaven, here by imperial decree to wipe out all demons in Beiju Luzhou!"
"You are the demon king who wreaks havoc in the Northern Continent. I, the Heavenly King, have come here specifically to subdue you!"
Countless question marks crossed Shen Du's brow.
Damn it!
He didn't want to stay in the Southern Continent, nor did he want to go to the territory of the bald monks of the Western Paradise, nor did he want to go to the territory of the powerful and diverse lineages of the Eastern Continent. So he was left with only the chaotic Northern Continent.
You Heavenly Court not only wiped out the demons, but you also came here to provoke yourselves.
I'm not saying you're tired of living, but you don't need to be so arrogant.
Riding on his divine face, he shamelessly calls him a monster; it's simply outrageous.
In the past, when had he ever suffered such humiliation?!
Except for that one time when the Eight Immortals fought desperately in ancient times.
The more Shen Du thought about it, the angrier he became, and his anger soared.
The vast heavens, looking down from above, held Li Jing, who considered himself arrogant, and his many heavenly soldiers and generals, constantly looking down on him with contempt, which made the gods increasingly furious.
Today, if he doesn't tear this group of people to shreds, he is not the master of this vast world.
Although the vast world is worthless in the primordial era, so what? How can the dignity of a Great Immortal be trampled on by ants?
"Demon, surrender now, and I, the Heavenly King, will grant you a whole corpse!"
Li Jing grew increasingly arrogant, and seeing Shen Du's silent demeanor, he thought he had Shen Du completely under his control.
The True Martial Emperor, who was watching the show from afar, turned his gaze toward this place for some unknown reason, scrutinizing the capital. The next moment, he was startled.
"This is not a demon king, this is a demon god!"
After his initial surprise, Emperor Zhenwu was about to remind Li Jing to quickly leave the presence of that demon god.
He had a premonition that this Great Luo Demon God was about to unleash his fury.
Just as he was about to offer a reminder, a voice suddenly came from beside him, making him freeze in place. Then, he smiled faintly and said, "Serves you right."
He didn't offer any advice, and even gloated.
"You audacious fiend, this Heavenly King is asking you a question!"
"presumptuous!"
"How dare a mere Golden Immortal ant provoke me!"
When the gods are still, they are at peace; but when they move, they are startled.
The moment he spoke, he made his move instantly. His palm transformed into a dragon claw, tearing through the air and arriving in front of Li Jing in an instant. The heavy claw seemed to possess the divine power to shatter everything, and it went straight for Li Jing's forehead.
"what!"
The threat of death loomed over Li Jing, who was terrified. He raised his hand to protect himself with the Seven Treasures Pagoda, and a surge of rich magical power flowed into it.
In an instant, the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda unleashed its divine power, growing dozens of times larger, and arrived in front of Li Jing in the blink of an eye, attempting to block the fierce attack from the capital.
"Boom——"
Like the sound of a bell, a tremendous aftershock resounded, and waves were born in the void, blasting away the ten thousand heavenly soldiers and generals surrounding them. Many of the weaker human immortals and heavenly soldiers died instantly and returned to the Investiture of the Gods.
After the attack, Li Jing staggered back several hundred steps, coughed up a mouthful of blood, and swayed, stubbornly standing on the clouds despite his unsteady stance.
"you you you!"
Ignoring his own injuries, Li Jing glanced at the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda in his hand and was immediately shocked, for it was a treasure bestowed upon him by the Ancient Buddha Dipankara to suppress his rebellious son Nezha.
Now, a crack has actually appeared.
"What are you!"
"Today, you will die here!"
"If it weren't for that Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, you, this so-called Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li, would already be a soul in the underworld!"
The primordial world, background comes first.
However, if you don't care about your background, then your background is of little use.
They've come to our doorstep, verbally provoking us. If we give in and back down, wouldn't that make us cowards?!
Nezha was alright, at least he admitted his mistake first, but Li Jing was extremely arrogant, completely disregarding him. "You are a Great Luo Demon God!"
Li Jing said in a panic.
He was, after all, a survivor of the Investiture of the Gods war, and thanks to his divine status over the years, he managed to break through to the peak of the Golden Immortal realm.
He was just one step away from breaking through to the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.
Regarding the Investiture of the Gods and the great war between the Jie Sect and the Chan Sect, Li Jing still had some understanding of the Great Luo Golden Immortals.
With just one strike, he was able to determine that the deity before him was a Great Luo Demon God.
Li Jing wasn't wrong to call him a monster before.
After all, the dragon claw just came out; if it's not a monster, can it be considered human?
When Li Jing uttered the name of the Great Luo Demon God, the expressions of the immortals and gods in the Heavenly Court turned strange, and then they became gloating.
The Jade Emperor remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he was overjoyed.
To the people of the Chan Sect, Li Jing was a complete traitor. He accepted the spiritual treasure of the Burning Lamp simply because of the Burning Lamp, and was therefore regarded as a traitor.
The members of the Jie Sect also hated Li Jing to the bone, after all, he had sent many of his fellow disciples to the Investiture of the Gods when he possessed the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.
The Jade Emperor was different from them. Li Jing was a good pawn, but also a thorn in his side, an undercover agent sent by Buddhism to the Heavenly Court.
But he had no way to get rid of it, so he could only let it stay by his side.
Previously, when Zhenwu the Great wanted to remind Li Jing, the Jade Emperor also told him not to say anything, and that it would be best for Li Jing to anger that Great Luo Demon God.
As for your question about whether the Heavenly Court would avenge Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, after his death.
The answer is definitely no.
After all, the Jade Emperor wouldn't easily offend a Grand Luo Golden Immortal.
Although the Great Luo Golden Immortal was nothing in his eyes.
Unfortunately, Li Jing's death allowed a powerful immortal to vent his anger, making it the best option since no action was needed.
The Heavenly Court is divided into various factions and is not solely under the Jade Emperor's control.
Even if the Jade Emperor ordered all the immortals and gods to punish them, they probably wouldn't agree.
After all, who would bother a being who is a Great Luo Golden Immortal?
"Your Majesty, King Li is in dire straits; we must go and offer our assistance!"
"Not bad!"
“Li Tianwang achieved godhood through physical cultivation, and his current cultivation level is at the peak of the Golden Immortal realm. If his physical body is destroyed, I'm afraid he will have no hope of reaching the Taiyi realm in the future.”
"This is a major weakening of our Heavenly Court's power!"
"."
That's what they say, but in the end, they still have to say something insincere.
The Jade Emperor also realized this and immediately ordered, "I just gave an order to the True Martial Emperor to stop that Great Luo Demon God!"
"The Jade Emperor is wise and benevolent!"
All the immortals and gods bowed respectfully.
"."
Meanwhile, Li Jing, who was being pursued by the capital, fled frantically, heading towards the North Heavenly Gate.
But when Li Jing saw the Great Luo Demon God, Shen Du, who was so close at hand and surrounded by endless killing intent, he panicked.
He immediately shouted, "My son Nezha, come quickly to save me!"
There was no response whatsoever.
Seeing that the capital city was getting closer and closer, Li Jing made up his mind and threw the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, a treasure acquired later in life, towards the capital city.
Endless heavenly fire surged toward the capital, and the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda unleashed a tremendous suction force, attempting to pull the intruder into the pagoda and suppress him. Furthermore, Buddhist chants resounded all around, trying to brainwash the newcomer.
At this moment, Li Jing used almost all the functions of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.
As the Seven Treasures Pagoda hurtled towards him, Shen Du calmly declared, "Power of Chaos, annihilate all things!"
He unleashed countless chaotic forces with both hands, transforming them into streams of chaotic energy that immediately eroded the attack released by the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.
In that instant, this acquired spiritual treasure completely lost its function under the erosion of the chaotic power.
Even the tower itself was eroded and gradually turned into nothingness.
"puff!"
The Seven Treasures Pagoda was completely eroded, and Li Jing once again spat out a mouthful of blood essence. His primordial spirit imprint was erased, and his foundation was already damaged.
Seeing the capital city closing in, Li Jing immediately shouted, "All heavenly soldiers and generals, immediately set up the Heavenly Net Formation to trap this demon!"
"True Martial Emperor, please save me!"
Since you've already offended them to the point of death, calling them demon gods or monsters is no different.
No sooner had he spoken than Li Jing saw Zhenwu the Great stop Shen Du, followed by a massive net-like formation set up by ten thousand heavenly soldiers and generals, which trapped Zhenwu the Great and Shen Du within the formation.
Seeing this, Li Jing finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The danger has finally passed.
Before he could recover, a spear blazing with Samadhi Fire came straight at his throat.
In a moment of extreme danger, Li Jing dodged to the side and turned to look at the person who had attacked him.
"Nezha!"
"You unfilial son, what do you think you're doing?!"
"Do you want to kill the heavens?!"
Li Jing shouted sharply, instinctively wanting to suppress Nezha with the Seven Treasures Pagoda, but suddenly realized that the Seven Treasures Pagoda was gone.
"hehe!"
"Li Jing, how dare you send my father to his death! Today, I, Nezha, will take your head and offer it as a sacrifice to the spirit of my father's Seven Treasures Pagoda in heaven!"
Nezha let out a cold laugh.
Realizing that he might be doomed today, Li Jing hurriedly shouted, "True Martial Emperor, come and save me!"
With the Heavenly Net Formation trapping that demon, shouldn't the True Martial Emperor have a chance to save me?
This thought flashed through Li Jing's mind.
At the same time, he heard a sentence that made his heart sink.
"Your Majesty the Jade Emperor only instructed me to stop this Great Luo Demon God. As for the Three Altars Sea Gathering God, that is Li Tianwang's family matter, and I have no right to interfere!"
Within the Heavenly Net Formation, the True Martial Emperor, who was confronting the Divine Capital, replied with a cheerful smile.
At this moment, Shendu also realized that he had been tricked by Nezha.
However, there's nothing we can do about it.
He stayed in the Bull Demon Mountain, and Li Jing almost turned the place upside down.
He can't possibly stay away any longer, can he?!
Anyway, at this moment, even the gods understood that there were very few simple immortals and gods in the primordial world.
They all say one thing in public and another in private.
Those who vie for opportunities, luck, and merit are mostly cunning and scheming.
Nezha's last remaining scheme was probably only used against Li Jing.
