In the beginning, he was ranked alongside An Shigeng as a spoiled brat.

However, for Sun Wukong to save people right under their noses was a great disgrace.

Only the Golden-Winged Roc continued drinking, completely ignoring the chaos in the Demon Cave and leaving it entirely to the two demon kings to handle.

After all, why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut?

"Little Drill Wind, take them and close the cave door for me."

You can't hold back Sun Wukong, so you can't hold back Tang Sanzang, who is only made of mortal flesh. Everyone else, don't move around. Sun Wukong and Tang Sanzang are right among you. The more chaotic things get, the more likely Tang Sanzang and Sun Wukong will take the opportunity to escape.

Also, check if you all recognize each other. Point out any demons you don't normally recognize.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

A little demon led several other little demons to quickly close the door, and at the same time, the surrounding demons calmed down.

They looked around to see if the demons were familiar to them. If not, then it was probably Sun Wukong in disguise.

This method might not find Sun Wukong, but finding Tang Sanzang is still easy.

Soon, amidst the rising and falling doubts, Tang Sanzang was found.

When a group of lesser demons surrounded Tang Sanzang, Sun Wukong saw their gaping maws and fangs, and immediately grabbed his golden cudgel and overturned the boiling oil pot.

Overturning the oil in the pan can buy some time.

Instantly, the hot oil splattering from the pan caused the unsuspecting little demons to scream in agony.

Similarly, this action also revealed Sun Wukong's location, and a group of lesser demons who were not affected by the hot oil immediately surrounded him.

The stone monkey swung his ten-thousand-pound iron rod, and before the lesser demons could react, they were all sent flying.

Severely injured from the impact, and certain to die from the sweep, the lesser demons rushed forward one after another, completely unaware that the demons who were blasted away were turning back into their original forms on the ground, dead beyond any hope of survival.

In just a short while, the number of lesser demons inside the cave had exceeded one thousand.

“…Sun Wukong!”

Suddenly a loud shout rang out, and Sun Wukong looked up to see the blue-faced lion holding a treasure gourd pointed at him.

The moment Sun Wukong saw the Crimson Gold Gourd, he knew something terrible was about to happen. But he still underestimated the power of this gourd. He instinctively felt a suction force enveloping him, and the surrounding demons, from large to small, were all turned into black dots and absorbed into it.

It could not last ten breaths before it was absorbed into the gourd, much to the delight of the demons.

The blue-faced lion, looking at the gourd in his hand, couldn't help but show delight and laughed loudly:

"Hahaha, third brother, what a treasure!"

"Brother, don't be careless. This gourd can only trap people, not kill them."

Moreover, this monkey has been tempered in the Eight Trigrams Furnace, making him indestructible. Even if I contained him in my Yin-Yang Two Qi Bottle, it would have no effect on him.”

"That's true, but we should eat Tang Sanzang's flesh first."

"Minions, set the oil pot up again and deep-fry Tang Sanzang!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Upon hearing this, the group of lesser demons became excited once again.

As for the dead demons, they too will be skinned and dismembered, and then they'll all be blown up later—this is the cruelty of the demon realm!

Chapter 157 Two Demons Transform

"Brother Sha! Little White Dragon!"

Inside the Crimson Gold Gourd, Sun Wukong immediately discovered Sha Wujing and the White Dragon inside.

No wonder I couldn't find them in the demon's cave earlier; they were all here. Meanwhile, Sun Wukong looked around and saw the demons who had been sucked in were also screaming, "No way to heaven, no way to earth!"

"Senior Brother, you've been captured by a monster too?"

Sha Wujing and the White Dragon were also greatly surprised to see Sun Wukong.

Among them, Sun Wukong was the strongest. Now that even Sun Wukong had been captured by these demons, Tang Sanzang's fate was predictable.

"I, Old Sun, was careless and was ambushed by that blue-faced lion, who then trapped me inside this treasure gourd."

This precious gourd shimmers with radiant light and overflows with celestial essence; it must be a celestial treasure. But who knows which bodhisattva or great emperor has abandoned their mount and come here to commit evil!

Sun Wukong surveyed the gourd space before him, which was tens of thousands of square meters in size and two to three hundred feet high. Its inner walls, as solid as copper and iron, were illuminated by a golden light, making the entire space as bright as day.

This treasure is no ordinary celestial artifact.

boom!

Sun Wukong, wielding his golden cudgel, struck the inner wall with immense power. Everyone felt the entire space tremble violently and shake violently, yet there was no trace of the impact.

Clearly, the golden cudgel can shake the gourd, but it's impossible to break open the gourd's space.

Then the monkey used the Heaven and Earth Transformation technique, attempting to burst the gourd with its body.

Unfortunately, as the monkey's body grew larger, the gourd's space expanded accordingly, perfectly enclosing the monkey's body. Moreover, the gourd's space was exceptionally tight, with not a single gap to be found.

To the three demons outside, the gourd did nothing but shake as Sun Wukong used various tricks.

This is a primordial spiritual treasure, containing a space that is an innate divine power.

"Haha, third brother, this monkey isn't moving anymore."

"It's likely that the monkeys realized their methods were ineffective, so they conserved their energy and waited to see what would happen."

Looking at the magic gourd, the Golden-Winged Roc couldn't help but nod.

Although this gourd has no ability to kill enemies, its method of trapping enemies is first-rate. Even a Great Luo Venerable would be trapped inside and have no way to escape. It is more powerful than some high-grade spiritual treasures and is far superior to the body of the Yin-Yang Two Qi Bottle.

However, for experts at the Great Luo realm, even if this gourd wants to recruit someone, it would probably need their consent first.

It's impossible for someone to be like Sun Wukong, who could simply use a spell to capture people and put them into the gourd.

Moreover, the capture of Sun Wukong was done by surprise. If there had been a clear distinction between superiors and inferiors, the monkey might not have fallen for the trick.

"Men, hurry up! Tang Sanzang and his disciples are all here now. No one can disturb us from enjoying Tang Sanzang's flesh."

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Upon hearing this, the group of lesser demons immediately became highly motivated.

At this moment, at the Western Paradise, Buddha also opened his golden eyes, a hint of surprise flashing across his face!

He kept a close eye on Tang Sanzang and his group, but to his surprise, the four of them were captured by the three demons as soon as they arrived at Lion Camel Ridge, and they had no power to fight back.

If he hadn't been keeping a close eye on the four of them, they probably would have been eaten by the three demons before the Buddhist sect could even intervene.

"Manjushri! Samantabhadra!"

"The disciple is here!"

Manjushri and Samantabhadra turned their heads and bowed in reverence, listening attentively to his command.

"You must hurry to Lion Camel Ridge and stop the three demons from cooking and eating Tang Sanzang."

"Yes, Buddha!"

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in their bright eyes. They hadn't expected that the Green Lion and White Elephant had actually captured Tang Sanzang, and that things had come to such a critical moment.

Not long after Manjushri and Samantabhadra left, Pigsy, who had been rushing all the way, had just arrived at Mount Ling.

"Disciple Pig Wuneng pays respects to Buddha."

"Buddha, something terrible has happened! My master has been captured by the demons of Lion Camel Ridge, and he's probably being cooked and fried right now! Please, Buddha, go and rescue my master!"

"I already know what you want."

Just now, the Bodhisattvas Manjushri and Samantabhadra have already gone ahead to Lion Camel Ridge to rescue your masters.

"Great! This incompetent pig thanks Buddha!"

Upon hearing this, Pigsy was overjoyed. Manjushri and Samantabhadra were two of the Four Great Bodhisattvas. Although they were Bodhisattvas, their status was still above that of all the Buddhas in the heavens, not to mention their strength.

Soon, to Pigsy's astonishment, it turned out that Buddha himself was leading the expedition.

On either side stood Ananda and Kasyapa, flanked by Buddhas, the Eighteen Arhats, three thousand Vajras, nuns, and Moksha...

The sheer force of the attack even shook Pigsy to his core, leaving him in disbelief that such a formidable force would be deployed to deal with the three great demons.

"Buddha, isn't this a bit too grand?"

"This calamity is not the same as the previous one. The three demons are merely the beginning. There is another top-tier powerhouse behind the three demons!"

Upon hearing this, Pigsy froze, looking at Buddha in disbelief.

The Three Demons were already terrifying beings, but who would have thought there was another terrifying being on Lion Camel Ridge? And one even more terrifying than the Three Demons.

"Is there a powerful figure behind these three demons?"

"Indeed, you were once Marshal Tianpeng, one of the Four Saints of the North Pole, and you have also heard of the powerful figure behind these three demons—the Jade Frontier War God!"

Gulu!

The incompetent pig swallowed hard, looking at Buddha in disbelief.

Who is the God of War of Jade Frontier?

He suppressed Sun Wukong in his first battle, and then fought the Ten Demon Kings alone, completely suppressing the Three Realms.

···

"You beast, submit at once!"

Manjushri and Samantabhadra arrived and saved Tang Sanzang from being boiled in oil. At the same time, they looked at the green lion and white elephant among the demons and wanted to make them return to their original forms.

At this moment, the two demons had already been gradually corrupted by the evil energy of the Blood Pill, and when they saw Samantabhadra, their eyes revealed a fierce light.

However, the accumulated power of the two great Bodhisattvas, Manjushri and Samantabhadra, cannot be restrained in a short time!

Moreover, they also had methods to restrain the two great demons, and immediately two golden beams entered the bodies of the two demons.

In an instant, the two demons, the Green Lion and the White Elephant, felt a slight sense of submission. A more terrifying and ferocious bloodthirsty aura filled their eyes, and their bodies swelled to ten zhang, revealing their true demonic forms.

However, the two demons did not submit at this moment, but ran towards their two masters.

Instead, his true form, as large as a mountain, was surrounded by blood and evil spirits, with crimson eyes. His ferocious and terrifying demonic form was like an ancient demon god being born, with overwhelming demonic power that shook the ten directions. Even Manjushri and Samantabhadra were startled by this change.

For a hundred years, Lion Camel Ridge was ruled by two demons who devoured countless humans.

The malevolent energy that had accumulated within the two demons, the Green Lion and the White Elephant, suddenly erupted under the stimulation of Manjushri and Samantabhadra, completely activating the ancient bloodline hidden within them.

With the help of the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir and the Great Calamity's fortune, the green-faced lion transformed into a red-haired demonic lion, and the yellow-toothed old elephant became a demonic-toothed dragon-elephant, exuding an even more ferocious aura than before. Even Manjushri and Samantabhadra's expressions changed drastically.

The demonization of their two mounts caught them off guard.

In particular, the demonized green lion and white elephant had their aura surge to the level of top-tier demon kings, forcing even the two bodhisattvas to take it seriously.

Chapter 158 Ten Thousand Demons VS Ten Thousand Buddhas

"You wretched beast, so stubborn and unrepentant!"

Although the two great Bodhisattvas, Manjushri and Samantabhadra, sensed something was wrong, they did not yet believe that the two demons had completely lost control and thought there was still hope of saving them.

Just as Manjushri and Samantabhadra were about to continue their efforts, a sudden, brilliant light shone from the west, illuminating the entire three thousand worlds. Immediately, an eight-zhang-tall golden Buddha appeared out of thin air, surrounded by Ananda, Kasyapa, various Buddhas, and three thousand Vajra Arhats…

On one side, ten thousand demons vanquish the heavens; on the other, ten thousand Buddhas pay homage!

On Lion Camel Ridge, a situation of confrontation between gods and demons is presented.

Upon seeing the Buddha appear, even the Green Lion and the White Elephant couldn't help but show fear and apprehension.

Manjushri and Samantabhadra are already formidable enemies, let alone now that the ultimate Buddhist leader has appeared. Even the two demon kings, after their transformation, couldn't help but show a hint of fear.

Tweet!

However, at this moment, a piercingly mournful cry rang out in the sky, and a soaring, bewildered bird swept across the low sky, rising high into the heavens.

Seeing this scene, both the myriad demons and the Buddhas of the heavens showed solemn expressions.

Golden-winged Roc!

As the three great demons emerged and the Buddhas of the heavens were about to take action, Tathagata looked at Lion Camel Ridge with a solemn expression.

Previously, Buddha had used his all-seeing eye to observe the Three Realms, but due to the chaos of the heavenly secrets during the calamity, he could not see everything clearly. He could only deduce from the Crimson Gold Gourd that Zhang Xiaoshan had made his move. The golden light of merit emanating from the Crimson Gold Gourd was identical to that of Sun Wukong's Golden Cudgel and the Iron Staff of His Will. Furthermore, Buddha had a vague idea of ​​why Zhang Xiaoshan had replaced the Yin-Yang Two Qi Bottles.

It is known throughout the Three Realms that the Taiqing lineage comprehends Yin and Yang and evolves the Great Dao.

The phoenix gave birth to the peacock and the roc in the past, which happened at the place where Yin and Yang and the Five Elements intersected.
