The Demon-Slaying Grandmaster

Chapter 489 Law, Heaven and Earth
After Li Jingxiao scolded Nezha, Ao Bing, and Bi Yun,

He then thanked Jinzha and Muzha for their help before waving goodbye.

Large clouds gathered in the sky, carrying everyone back to Chentang Pass.

Jinzha and Muzha were not in a hurry to return to the mountain, but instead stayed at the Li residence.

Although Li Jingxiao had previously used some rather offensive language to insult Nezha, Ao Bing, and Bi Yun.

But after returning home, he gave the three brothers some targeted advice.

In the meantime, he also gave a good compliment to Yunxia, ​​who stayed at home to take care of Lei Zhenzi.

As for Daji, during the days that Nezha and Ao Bing were adventuring in the south, Daji had already secretly seen her parents and brothers in Yizhou.

Having confirmed that her family was safe, the woman had actually only stayed in Yizhou for two days.

He couldn't resist dragging Li Jingxiao around to travel.

When Biyun Tongzi asked for help, Li Jingxiao was actually taking Daji for a stroll in the North Sea.

Let's also take a look at why Wen Zhong has been in Beihai for almost ten years and still hasn't completely wiped out the rebels.

Unfortunately, before Li Jingxiao could uncover the truth, he sensed Biyun's plea for help.

With the completely ignorant Daji by his side, he covered tens of thousands of miles in a flash.

It can be said that this speed is no different from traveling thousands of miles in an instant.

After giving targeted guidance to Nezha, Ao Bing, and Bi Yun, Li Jingxiao then casually checked the martial arts skills of Jinzha and Muzha.

Incidentally, under the pretext of testing Jinzha and Muzha's martial arts skills, he casually beat the two brothers a few times.

They call it giving pointers, but in reality, it's just about gaining some experience points on the side.

Although Jinzha and Muzha were beaten, they harbored no resentment and were even very grateful to Li Jingxiao.

After all, Li Jingxiao's casual remarks made the two brothers suddenly realize the truth.

Let alone being beaten a few times, Jinzha and Muzha wished they could be like Nezha, willing to be beaten every day as long as they could become Li Jingxiao's apprentice.

In the evening, Li Jingxiao released Yuan Hong and his seven companions.

As soon as Yuan Hong came out, he used his transformation technique to try to escape.

He burrowed into the ground, intending to escape using earth magic.

But before he could burrow into the ground, he heard Li Jingxiao say, "Pointing to the ground, steel will be formed."

Instantly, the ground within a radius of several hundred meters where Yuan Hong was located became harder than steel.

The impact made Yuan Hong's head clang.

In the Investiture of the Gods, Tu Xingsun caused a lot of headaches for Jiang Ziya, Yang Jian, Nezha and others by using his earth-moving magic.

However, a single move, "Turning the Earth into Steel," easily broke Tu Xingsun's Earth-Walking Technique.

The "pointing to the ground to turn it into steel" technique was actually the unique skill of Tu Xingsun's master, "Juli Sun".

It is clear that the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect are indeed 'unworthy of their names'.

If this were in the Journey to the West world, there would be plenty of people in Heaven who could easily take down Tu Xingsun, that short, stout fellow, in one move.
-
If it weren't for Yuan Hong cultivating the "Eight-Nine Arcane Arts" and possessing an "indestructible body,"

That bump will definitely give him a big bump on the head.

Yuan Hong failed to escape and panicked, fearing that Li Jingxiao would use his "hidden power" again to capture him.

Without much thought, it transformed into a peregrine falcon, flapping its wings continuously.

Unfortunately, before he could fly dozens of miles, Li Jingxiao smiled. He didn't want to end up like Sun Wukong and Yang Jian, where one of them turned into a dove and the other into an eagle.

You turn into a raccoon dog, and I turn into a tiger, and we fight back and forth like this.

He used his magical power to unleash the 'False Form' from the Seventy-Two Transformations of Earthly Fiends.

It instantly transformed into a golden-winged roc, which swooped down and grabbed at the peregrine falcon that Yuan Hong had transformed into.

Li Jingxiao not only saw the real Golden-Winged Roc, but also beat that guy so badly that he dared not fight him.

They would even run away as soon as they saw them.

Therefore, the Golden-Winged Roc that Li Jingxiao transformed into was not only similar in appearance, but also ridiculously powerful.

With a flap of its wings, it can travel thousands of miles.

Catching up with Yuan Hong, who had already flown dozens or even hundreds of miles away, was far too easy.

Moreover, this Golden-Winged Roc has a wingspan of tens of feet, and its two sharp claws are several meters in size.

The peregrine falcon that snatched at Yuan Hong was like a hawk catching a sparrow.

Not only did they easily capture Yuan Hong, but they also dragged him back with them.

Yuan Hong was in a great hurry and had no choice but to use his most secret skills.

With a roar, it transformed back into human form.

His body suddenly grew larger, until he transformed into a giant hundreds of feet tall.

Now, the eagle seemed like a sparrow in his presence.

With a single grab, he tore the eagle formed from his magic power to shreds, and the magic power dissipated into the world.

Nezha, Jinzha, Muzha, Ao Bing, Biyun, Yunxia, ​​Leizhenzi, and Daji's expressions changed immediately.

Even the people inside Chentang Pass could see the giant, towering like a mountain, dozens of miles away.

But Li Jingxiao just laughed.

Sure enough, there was something wrong with the "Eight-Nine Arcane Technique" that this guy was practicing.

When Yang Jian uses the divine power of "Law of Heaven and Earth", he can directly transform into a giant ten thousand feet tall.

One zhang is about three meters, and ten thousand zhang is thirty thousand meters.

It is 30 kilometers high.

This is a true giant, nearly three times taller than Mount Everest.

If two such giants were to fight, that would be a truly world-destroying spectacle.

Therefore, the giant, who was hundreds of feet tall, was a minor figure in Li Jingxiao's eyes.

With a swift movement, in the blink of an eye, Li Jingxiao's figure swelled into a golden-armored god ten thousand feet tall.

He blew a breath at Yuan Hong, and the guy was blown thousands of miles away, crashing into an island in the East China Sea.

It directly knocked down a mountain on the island.

Fortunately, Yuan Hong's physical body was indeed formidable; despite such a powerful impact, he was completely unharmed.

But before Yuan Hong could recover from the pain, Li Jingxiao used the "Whip Mountain and Move Stone" technique from the Thirty-Six Arts of the Heavenly Gang.

Three enormous mountains appeared and pressed down on Yuan Hong's shoulders and head.

This trick is still learned from that kid Silver Horn, who summoned Mount Emei, Mount Tai, and Mount Sumeru to suppress Sun Wukong when he was at Lotus Mountain.

Sun Wukong was so crushed that blood flowed from his seven orifices, and he almost died.

At this time, Yuan Hong was not as good as Sun Wukong during the journey to the West, and was naturally suppressed by the three huge mountain ranges summoned by Li Jingxiao.

However, Mount Emei, Mount Tai, and Mount Sumeru represent the three religions of Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism.

That's why it hurt Sun Wukong so much, but even so, it still couldn't kill the monkey.

The three massive mountain ranges that Li Jingxiao summoned were merely large mountains.

Although it did suppress Yuan Hong, it did not cause any additional damage, but instead forced Yuan Hong to use his 'Mountain-Carrying' power.

They desperately held up these three giant mountains.

Li Jingxiao thought to himself, "This guy is indeed formidable."

Unfortunately, he didn't learn the complete version of the "Eight-Nine Arcane Arts," and this applies to both Journey to the West and Investiture of the Gods.

No matter how powerful one's supernatural abilities are, they will still be suppressed by magical treasures most of the time.

Li Jingxiao returned to normal human size and shook the Immortal Binding Rope on his wrist.

This treasure instantly transformed into a rope hundreds of feet long, covering thousands of miles in an instant, binding Yuan Hong, who was struggling to carry three giant mountains, tightly.

The +9 Immortal Binding Rope can bind anyone weaker than Li Jingxiao.

Back then, Li Jingxiao gave the Bodhisattva a +7 Binding Immortal Rope, which allowed the Bodhisattva to easily bind the Six-Eared Macaque so that he couldn't move.

At this point, Li Jingxiao's strength might not necessarily be greater than that of the Bodhisattva.

But he is definitely much stronger than Yuan Hong.

The Immortal Binding Rope bound Yuan Hong, and they flew all the way back to Chentang Pass.

A golden hoop flew out from Li Jingxiao's body and landed on Yuan Hong's head, transforming into a tight band that took root into the flesh. Li Jingxiao only needed to think about it, and the hoop would tighten.

The pain was so intense that Yuan Hong's "eyes swelled, his head throbbed, and his forehead cracked."

No matter how powerful or skilled Yuan Hong is, as long as he is not as powerful as Li Jingxiao, he will be tightly bound by this tight band.

Yuan Hong endured the pain for more than a dozen breaths, but finally couldn't take it anymore and rolled on the ground, screaming and writhing in agony.

Upon seeing this, the other six demons trembled and stood rooted to the spot, not daring to make the slightest move.

Even the troublesome Nezha felt a sense of dread upon seeing Yuan Hong's miserable state.

He thought to himself, "Luckily, I have taken a master as my teacher, and I have always been quite obedient in front of him."

Otherwise, if I were like Yuan Hong, just thinking about it would make me feel uneasy.

However, when he thought of his master transforming into a giant, Nezha's eyes lit up.

Jinzha, Muzha, Ao Bing, Biyun, Yunxia, ​​and Leizhenzi were all extremely envious.

Jinzha and Muzha were, after all, direct disciples of the third generation of the Chan Sect, so their vision and knowledge were extremely high.

They knew this was the supernatural power of 'following the laws of heaven and earth'.

Within the Chan Sect, only Jade Cauldron Immortal and Yang Jian possess this magical ability.

Others who want to learn don't know who to learn from.

Moreover, the "Eight-Nine Arcane Arts" is a genuine and essential martial art for protecting the Chan Sect in the Investiture of the Gods.

These are the words Yang Jian said to Yuan Hong when they met.

Not only is it difficult to learn, but among the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, only Jade Cauldron True Man received the true transmission of this divine skill.

Then he passed it on to Yang Jian.

However, Yu Ding has basically never made a move, so no one knows exactly how many levels he has cultivated in the "Eight-Nine Arcane Arts".

There is no clear evidence as to whether Master Yuding truly learned this divine skill.

Even if Jinzha and Muzha wanted to learn, their masters, Puxian Zhenren and Wenshu Zhenren, had never learned it themselves.

Therefore, his gaze towards Li Jingxiao became increasingly eager.

But Jinzha and Muzha knew in their hearts that unless their master was like Nezha's master, Taiyi Zhenren, they would not be able to achieve this.

They don't mind if the two brothers become Li Jingxiao's apprentices.

Otherwise, Li Jingxiao would not have taught his two brothers the supernatural power of "following the laws of heaven and earth".

Thinking of this, Jinzha and Muzha couldn't help but look at Nezha with envious eyes.

Even Ao Bing, Bi Yun, Yun Xia, and Lei Zhenzi became objects of their envy.
-
Li Jingxiao had no time to care about what Jinzha and Muzha were thinking.

Just as Yuan Hong was about to beg for mercy, a notification sounded in his mind that he had gained 42 experience points.

But as Li Jingxiao was happy, a thought suddenly occurred to him.

After Yuan Hong begged for mercy, he recited the mantra of the Tightening Hoop in his mind once again.

Just a dozen seconds later, Yuan Hong was writhing on the ground in pain again.

Covered in dust and looking utterly disheveled, he kept begging for mercy.

Sure enough, the notification sound of +42 experience points rang in my mind again.

But Li Jingxiao was only happy for a moment before realizing that unless Yuan Hong was disobedient all the time.

Otherwise, if we silently recite a spell to punish him, Yuan Hong might not be able to bear it and will ask for death on his own.

Or perhaps, they spend all their time thinking about how to kill themselves.

He even considered killing Nezha and other disciples, or women like Daji, to exchange them one for one.

I'll take someone down with me even if I die, so they'll regret it for the rest of their lives.

Fortunately, Li Jingxiao had already experienced this kind of thing in the world of Dream of the Red Chamber.

That eight-armed demon was so badly beaten that he became withdrawn.

He actually used seclusion as an excuse to meditate and cultivate without moving for several years while Li Jingxiao was entering and leaving the Demon Locking Tower.

Therefore, Li Jingxiao knew very well that the truly stable source of experience actually came from women.

Whether it's teaching his women martial arts or having them fight in bed.

While Li Jingxiao was enjoying himself, his women were also happy.

Therefore, taking on apprentices or thugs is indeed less efficient than taking on more women.

However, Yuan Hong's strength is indeed quite good, and his talent is likely even greater than Yang Jian's.

It would be a shame to let such a good thug go.

If Yuan Hong were to act in a play in the future in cooperation with Jiang Ziya, he might even be able to become a saint in the flesh and ascend to the Heavenly Court.

Even if the Jade Emperor doesn't agree, he can simply surrender after Yuan Hong and Jiang Ziya, along with other members of the Chan Sect, have fought a few battles.

Yuan Hong will be killed during the Investiture of the Gods.

It's related to his refusal to surrender.

Otherwise, even if Yuanshi Tianzun looked down on Yuan Hong.

The Western religion and the Daoist Zhunti would absolutely love to convert Yuan Hong to go to the Western Paradise.

As for the six oddballs including Jin Dasheng, Li Jingxiao didn't care about their lives.

However, if they were willing to serve him like slaves, Li Jingxiao wouldn't mind taking a few of them as servants.

Thinking of this, Li Jingxiao casually unleashed a divine light towards Jin Dasheng and his group of six.

Six resounding slaps knocked the six monsters to the ground.

Moreover, it was probably because they were extremely afraid of Li Jingxiao that Jin Dasheng and the others were beaten.

Not only did they not harbor any resentment or desire to resist, they even took the initiative to beg for mercy.

Six more notification sounds rang in Li Jingxiao's mind.

In addition to the two +42 experience points provided by Yuan Hong earlier.

In one go, they gained 261 million points.

At the same time, the fact that Kim Dae-seung and the other six were so afraid of him made Lee Kyung-hyo feel much more at ease about them.

As long as their lives are in their hands and they are not treated too harshly, the possibility of rebellion will be lower.

If he could offer some guidance from time to time, even Yuan Hong would resign himself to serving under him.

As expected, Li Jingxiao only gave a slight hint.

Jin Dasheng, Zhu Zizhen, Chang Hao, Wu Long, Dai Li, and Yang Xian immediately bowed down.

They were pleading with the master to take them in.

Upon seeing this, Yuan Hong hesitated for only a moment before following suit, just like Jin Dasheng and the other six.

He knelt on the ground, begging Li Jingxiao to take him in.

Li Jingxiao pretended to hesitate for a moment, but in the end, without further ado, he directly accepted the seven of them as protectors of the mountain gate.

As for which 'mountain gate' it was, Li Jingxiao didn't say, and the Seven Freaks of Meishan didn't dare to ask either.

Moreover, although the guardians of the mountain gate are also servants, their titles sound much better than those of servants.

Listening to this, it seems like he holds a fairly high position, which can also reduce the dissatisfaction of the Seven Freaks of Meishan.

Then Li Jingxiao started making empty promises.

But he wasn't all just spouting nonsense.

Jin Dasheng is a water buffalo with gallstones in its belly, which it breathes fire to burn its enemies.

Li Jingxiao was very skilled in fire magic, although he could not pass on the Samadhi True Fire, the Six Ding Divine Fire, and the Sun True Fire to Jin Dasheng.

However, the Great Dao of Taiqing contains many cultivation techniques based on fire.

A few casual words of advice were enough to make Jin Dasheng overjoyed.

Zhu Zizhen was indeed a wild boar spirit, and Li Jingxiao and Zhu Bajie had a close relationship.

Li Jingxiao was already very familiar with Old Pig's methods.

In Journey to the West, Li Jingxiao often used the excuse of sparring to challenge Zhu Bajie to fights and gain experience.
