Chapter 550 The Demon in the Moon, Wu Gang Chopping the Tree

boom! boom! boom!
From the perspective of the modern world, the spectacle of the sun and moon in the sky has only been happening for a few breaths.

A series of explosions came from the starry sky, which was beyond the reach of the naked eye.

Immediately afterwards, the spacetime rift that had previously only appeared in the sky above the North Sea expanded again, and the Kunpeng that Zhuang Zhou had transformed into immediately rushed out from it.

Relying on his own speed of soaring up to ninety thousand miles, Zhuang Zhou quickly appeared at the edge of the battlefield between Bo Xun and Chang'e.

Then, the intensity of the battle escalated once again.

Under the combined attack of Zhuangzi and Chang'e, Mara's defeat was evident.

However, for some reason, Lu Huaijin, who was standing on Zhuang Zhou's head, inexplicably had an ominous premonition.

Mara's power is beyond doubt.

He has already attained the Tao and is free to transform into others, making him outstanding even among all those who have attained the Tao.

However, his opponents this time were also two great gods who had attained enlightenment.

Although Chang'e only inherited one-fifteenth of the moon goddess's authority, the moon is her domain.

Zhuang Zhou goes without saying.

Mara's Paranirmitavasavartin is a path that evolved from Zhuangzi's Great Freedom, and is inherently restrained by it.

So what exactly is He plotting?

If we put ourselves in Bo Xun's shoes, Lu Huaijin would never continue to entangle with Chang'e and Zhuang Zhou if he were in Bo Xun's current situation.

After all, every minute that gets entangled increases the level of danger.

boom!
Just as Lu Huaijin was pondering.

Suddenly, Mara, who was under siege, launched a counterattack without regard for anything else.

In a short time, the thousands of dragon heads exploded and transformed into countless fire dragons that surged in all directions.

Although Zhuang Zhou reacted immediately, he still had to spread his wings and adopt a defensive posture.

However, only one-third of the fire dragons rushed towards Zhuang Zhou; many more rushed directly towards the Taiyin Star.

"hold head high!"

The sound of thousands of fire dragons roaring simultaneously echoed throughout the starry sky.

Chang'e's pupils constricted as she realized the danger, and the Taiyin star beneath her feet began to rumble.

Countless enormous roots rose from the laurel tree, tearing apart the moon and rushing towards the fire dragons.

But this is exactly the result that Mara wanted.

"I want this sacred laurel tree!"

His body suddenly became ethereal, and Mara's voice came from among the thousands of fire dragons.

As a celestial demon, He was originally a being from another dimension.

The ability to move between illusion and reality is simply an innate instinct of His.

By the time everyone realized what was happening, Mara's hideous face had already appeared on the roots of the giant laurel tree.

Then came the second one, the third one...

As more and more faces appeared on the laurel tree, everyone realized the seriousness of the problem.

Once Mara has taken over the entire laurel tree, the Moon will become his other domain.

At that time, He might even forcibly pull Himself into the mortal world, thereby turning the Moon into His own sacred space.

—He wields the power of the Moon Goddess while possessing the body of a celestial demon.

—Transforming the moon and stars into the domain of celestial demons.

Zhuang Zhou felt that this scene was familiar, as if he had experienced something similar at some point.

"Damn it! He actually wants to imitate the Moon Demon's path to enlightenment!"

After a brief moment of stunned silence, Zhuang Zhou quickly remembered where he had seen this scene before.

In Zhuangzi's countless failed attempts to attain enlightenment, there are several timelines in which Mara was defeated by Wangshu and became part of his power.

Wang Shu, now possessed by a demon, descends to the mortal realm, using the Taiyin star as a foundation to prove the path of the Moon Demon.

By combining the eternally existing Taiyin star with the Alaya consciousness in the subconscious of all living beings... In this way, the Moon Demon Wangshu completed the "Great Freedom Path" that Zhuangzi and Mara had not accomplished, and completely transformed into the demon of all living beings.

To be honest, that was the first time the "Great Freedom Path" had been successfully realized.

Even if it's not me who succeeds in attaining enlightenment...

Even if the path attained is not the great freedom one desires...

Zhuang Zhou was still deeply impressed by the Moon Demon Wang Shu, who had successfully attained enlightenment.

Now that Zhuang Zhou sees Bo Xun trying to replicate the path of the Moon Demon, he can't help but feel alarmed.

"No! We can't let Him assimilate the Laurel Tree!"

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

"No! We can't let Him assimilate the Laurel Tree!"

The same voice entered the Six Desires Heaven, and Wang Shu, who had already successfully suppressed many demon kings, was taken aback.

Looking in response, even though they were separated by two worlds, Wang Shu still saw the laurel tree that was being assimilated by Mara, and the moon that was turning as black as ink.

"Lunar eclipse" is the power of Wangshu, but now it has appeared on Bo Xun.

"teacher?"

I forced myself to suppress my inner irritability and anger.

Wang Shu did not make a move immediately, but instead turned her gaze to the Primordial Heavenly Demon behind her.

After being taught by Li Boyang for so long, Wangshu has indeed made great progress.

At least when faced with such malicious provocation, she was able to maintain basic composure.

"That's right, He wants to lure you into making a move."

With a faint smile and a nod, Li Boyang slowly walked to Wang Shu's side and said.

“He wanted to break free from my control, and was even willing to change his way of preaching for this purpose.”

"Unfortunately, Mara is not the moon god. If you were to intervene, it would be exactly what He desires..."

"Now, just watch quietly."

As if to confirm Li Boyang's words, a bright light suddenly flashed near the laurel tree.

The next second, a pale-skinned man wielding a giant axe appeared out of thin air.

Boom!
It was just a simple swing of the axe.

A laurel branch with a boar's face fell to the ground.

On the contrary, Chang'e, as the ruler of the Moon, not only did not stop the man's actions, but also took the initiative to draw her bow and arrow to repel several fire dragons that tried to attack him.

In the blink of an eye, the man nimbly severed several roots.

Bo Xun tried to stop the other party time and time again, but was instead forced back by the combined forces of Chang'e and Zhuang Zhou.

"who are you?"

"Why have I never heard of you before!?"

With undisguised anger and a hint of barely perceptible panic.

Bo Xun stared intently at the man's figure, his mind replaying various myths and legends about the Taiyin star.

Despite searching through all of his memories, Mara had never heard of this man's existence.

In other words, even in later generations, this man's existence remained a secret, known to very few.

"I?"

The man, who slightly raised his head but continued wielding his giant axe without stopping, laughed.

"I'm just a ghost that should have died..."

"If you absolutely must have a specific name for me, you can call me 'Wu Gang'."
