Gou Zai Xi You Dao Chang Sheng

The Lion Camel King glanced down, a serious look flashing in his eyes.

Having lived for tens of thousands of years and experienced countless battles, how could he not see the power of this whip?

Although the lightning was not intense, it contained the power of the universe's key mechanisms.

It is seeping into the body little by little, eroding the blood and qi.

If left unchecked, the lightning will penetrate deep into his internal organs and damage his foundation within half an hour.

"What a 'King of Growth'! I underestimated you!"

Lion Camel King snorted coldly.

His demonic energy surged, transforming into a blood-red light curtain that forcefully expelled the lightning from his body.

Within that blood-red light curtain, countless vengeful spirits and vengeful ghosts could be faintly seen, baring their fangs and claws, and screaming.

It was the souls and spirits he had devoured over the years.

Stimulated by the lightning, those souls instantly turned into wisps of green smoke and dissipated into the void.

The Lion Camel King's expression remained unchanged.

After all, the life and death of those souls had nothing to do with him.

Sun Wukong, disguised as Nezha, gave him no chance to catch his breath.

With a flick of his spear, a crimson flame shot out from the tip, heading straight for the Lion Camel King's face.

That flame, called True Fire, is Nezha's signature skill.

Although it is not the true Samadhi Fire, it incorporates a wisp of Sun Wukong's own True Sun Fire, making it exceptionally powerful.

Lion Camel King's expression hardened, and he held the mountain-splitting axe horizontally in front of him, a layer of earthy yellow halo appearing on the axe surface.

That halo was the [Earth Divine Light] he condensed with the power to move mountains, which was most effective at resisting flames.

The crimson flames collided with the divine light of the Earth element.

Chi Chi!

Flames surged, and divine light trembled.

The two sides were evenly matched, and it was difficult to determine which was better for the time being.

Seeing that Sun Wukong's direct attack would not be a quick victory, Li Yan immediately activated his golden whip, infusing it with a wisp of the power of the True Fire of the Sun.

The golden whip, empowered by the true fire of the sun, was instantly engulfed in a layer of crimson-gold flames.

That flame, extremely yang and powerful, could burn anything.

Li Yan swung his golden whip and then brought it down.

The whip's force is like a mountain, its intent like fire; the combination of mountain and fire amplifies its power.

Lion Camel King's expression changed slightly. He swung his mountain-splitting axe, abandoned Sun Wukong, and faced Li Yan's whip.

when!

The golden whip clashed with the mountain-splitting axe, sparks flying everywhere.

The sparks that fell to the ground burned black holes in the rocks.

Lion Camel King felt a numbness in his tiger's mouth and took a slight step back.

He was secretly shocked. When did this Heavenly King of Growth become so powerful?

That whip strike was far more powerful than the one before.

At that moment, Sun Wukong seized the opportunity to circle around behind him and thrust his Fire-Tipped Spear straight into his back.

The tip of the spear gleamed with a cold light, exuding a menacing aura.

Without a second thought, the Lion Camel King's demonic aura surged, transforming into a crimson pillar of light that shot into the sky.

Within that pillar of light, the faint phantom of a giant blue lion roared towards the sky.

The roar was deafening, and the entire Lion Camel Ridge trembled violently.

Countless rocks tumbled down, and trees broke.

Startled by the roar, Sun Wukong felt a slight daze, and the speed of his Fire-Tipped Spear slowed down by a third.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the Lion Camel King turned around and swung his mountain-splitting axe horizontally.

This axe strike contained tens of thousands of years of his cultivation, and its power was earth-shattering.

Wherever the axe blade passed, even the void was shattered.

Sun Wukong quickly dodged, but was still struck by the axe wind.

His body flew backward, somersaulting several times in the void before he finally regained his footing.

Looking down, he saw that a crack had appeared on the armor on his chest.

"Good ax technique!"

Sun Wukong's golden eyes flashed, and instead of being afraid, his fighting spirit grew even stronger.

He was born a stone monkey, growing stronger with each battle, and becoming more powerful when facing stronger opponents.

He immediately steadied himself, and with a flick of his Fire-Tipped Spear, it transformed into countless spear shadows, slashing down upon the Lion Camel King.

The gunshots were densely packed, numbering at least a thousand.

A single spear thrust contained a wisp of the sun's true fire power, blazing intensely.

Lion Camel King remained expressionless and swung his mountain-splitting axe repeatedly.

The axe shadows were like mountains, layer upon layer, blocking all the spear shadows.

Ding ding ding ding!

Gunshots and axe shadows clashed, sparks flying everywhere, illuminating half the sky.

Li Yan stood aside, not in a hurry to make a move.

He opened his Eye of Cause and Effect and carefully observed the Lion Camel King's flaws.

The Lion Camel King's aura was as vast as the sea, yet there were several faint cracks.

Those cracks were old wounds left from when he was injured by Sun Wukong.

Although it has healed, traces remain.

Especially at the chest, the deepest crack had a faint golden light shining through it.

That was the mark left by the Golden Cudgel, containing a wisp of Sun Wukong's natal Geng Metal energy.

This metallic energy is incompatible with the Lion Camel King's demonic aura and is eroding his heart meridian.

If we can hit him there, we can severely injure him.

Li Yan had already made up his mind, and immediately sent a telepathic message to Sun Wukong.

"Your Majesty, that fellow has an old wound on his chest, which is his weakness."

"I will launch a direct assault, while Your Majesty seizes the opportunity to strike directly at your heart."

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong's golden eyes flashed, and he nodded slightly.

At that moment, Li Yan leaped into the air, transforming into a golden light, and headed straight for the Lion Camel King.

He swung the golden whip in his hand, and the True Fire of the Sun burned fiercely on the whip, scorching hot.

With a single lash, the whip struck down like heavenly fire descending upon the world, burning everything in its path.

Lion Camel King's expression hardened, and he held his mountain-splitting axe above his head to take the blow head-on.

when!

A heat wave surged.

Lion Camel King felt his arms go weak and his body slumped slightly.

Two deep footprints were left on the rocks beneath our feet.

Two deep footprints were left on the rocks beneath our feet.

Just then, Sun Wukong, disguised as Nezha, quietly circled around behind him.

The fire-tipped spear trembled.

The tip of the spear, imbued with all of his magical power, transformed into a crimson beam that shot straight toward the Lion Camel Queen's heart.

The Lion Camel King sensed the murderous intent behind him and his expression changed drastically.

He tried to dodge, but Li Yan entangled him, and he couldn't break free.

Just as the spear was about to pierce his heart, the Lion Camel King steeled his resolve, bit his tongue, and spat out a mouthful of blood essence.

The essence of blood transformed into a streak of blood light and merged into the mountain-splitting axe.

The mountain-splitting axe, empowered by the essence of blood, suddenly shone brightly.

Countless blood-red runes appeared on the axe, faintly accompanied by the roar of a lion.

The Lion Camel King gripped his axe with both hands and swept it with all his might.

Wherever the axe blade passed, the void shattered inch by inch, bringing with it a gust of wind.

The gale contained the power to move mountains and fill seas, sweeping in all directions.

Li Yan was swept away by the strong wind and felt unsteady, so he quickly retreated.

Sun Wukong's spear was also deflected by the strong wind, grazing the Lion Camel King's ribs and leaving only a shallow mark.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the Lion Camel King escaped and stood in the void, panting heavily.

His face was slightly pale, clearly indicating that the loss of his vital essence from that mouthful of blood had been quite significant.

Sun Wukong's golden eyes lit up, and he grinned, "Good! That's more like it!"

Having said that, without waiting for the Lion Camel King to catch his breath, he thrust his spear forward.

A faint dragon's roar could be heard from the tip of the spear.

Lion Camel King dared not be negligent, and swung his mountain-splitting axe repeatedly, transforming it into a curtain of axe blades that protected him completely.

Ding ding ding ding!

The two fought back and forth for dozens of rounds, but neither could gain the upper hand.

Li Yan watched the battle from the sidelines, nodding secretly.

Although the Lion Camel King was still recovering from his injuries, he was still a seasoned demon.

His axe skills were so refined and his cultivation so profound that they far surpassed those of ordinary Taiyi Golden Immortals.

If it weren't for Sun Wukong's innate bravery, it would have been truly difficult for him to win.

However, at this moment, Sun Wukong is fighting in the form of Nezha, wielding the Fire-Tipped Spear, which can be transformed by magical power.

The cudgel wasn't quite right for him, so his combat effectiveness was inevitably reduced.

After fighting for so long, they only gained a slight advantage and failed to defeat the Lion Camel King.

Li Yan was calculating in his heart; if things dragged on any longer, something unexpected might happen.

Immediately, he leaped into the fray and joined the battle.

He swung the golden whip and struck the Lion Camel King in the face.

This whip strike, imbued with the power to shake mountains and shake peaks, was immensely powerful and unstoppable.

Lion Camel King's expression hardened, and he blocked with his mountain-splitting axe.

Bang!

Lion Camel King felt a numbness in his tiger's mouth and his body swayed slightly.

Just then, Sun Wukong thrust his spear straight at his ribs.

Lion Camel King quickly dodged, but was still grazed by the spear tip, leaving a bloody mark.

His expression changed slightly, and he inwardly groaned.

These two great generals, one in front and one behind, cooperated perfectly, launching a continuous offensive.

Although he possessed the cultivation level of a Taiyi Golden Immortal, his injuries had not yet healed, making it difficult for him to fight for long.

If this continues, death is inevitable.

With this in mind, the Lion Camel King steeled his heart and decided to use his most trump card.

He gripped the axe with both hands, closed his eyes, and concentrated.

The demonic energy around him contracted rapidly, merging entirely into the mountain-splitting axe.

The mountain-splitting axe, having absorbed this massive amount of demonic energy, immediately shone brightly.

A phantom image of a towering mountain appeared on the axe.

Those mountains stand tall and majestic, piercing the clouds.

It was a divine mountain that he had refined over the years with the power to move mountains, named Buzhou.

According to legend, there was a mountain called Buzhou in ancient times, which was the pillar of heaven.

Gonggong, in his anger, struck Mount Buzhou, causing the pillar of heaven to break and the earth's axis to sever.

It's impossible for the Lion Camel King to actually refine Mount Buzhou.

But this sacred mountain, which he had refined, also contained some of the power of Mount Buzhou.

With a single axe stroke, it was as if a pillar of heaven had collapsed.

Li Yan sensed the immense power within the axe's momentum, and his expression hardened slightly.

He immediately sent a telepathic message to Sun Wukong.

"Your Majesty, be careful! This fellow is going to fight to the death!"

Sun Wukong's golden eyes flashed, and he grinned, "It's better to fight to the death!!"

Having said that, he flicked the Fire-Tipped Spear, and a crimson flame appeared on the tip.

That flame was the [Red Lotus Karmic Fire] that he had condensed from his own true solar fire.

This fire can burn away karma, purify sins, and is most effective in suppressing evil spirits.

The Lion Camel King's axe, which splits mountains, contains countless vengeful spirits and malevolent ghosts; it is an object burdened with heavy karma.

The Red Lotus Karmic Fire is precisely its nemesis.

The Lion Camel King sensed the aura of the flames, and his expression changed slightly.

But now he had no choice but to act.

With a loud shout, he swung the axe down with all his might.

That axe fell as if a pillar of heaven had broken and the earth's foundation had been severed.

The entire Lion Camel Ridge was trembling violently, with countless rocks tumbling down, as if the sky were about to collapse and the earth to split open.

With the force of the axe, the illusory image of a towering mountain pressed down from above.

Li Yan stood in the void, feeling a vast power rushing towards him.

However, his expression remained unchanged, and he silently practiced the method of "Mastering the Five Thunders" in his mind.

Thunder is the pivot of heaven and earth.

The force of thunder can break through mountains; it is the use of strength to overcome strength, and the use of power to defeat power.

In an instant, lightning blazed around Li Yan.

The lightning was dazzling and illuminated half the sky.

He gripped the whip with both hands, drawing upon the power of divine thunder from the heavens, and slammed it down with all his might.

Boom!

The lightning collided with the mountains, creating a deafening roar.

The sound was like the creation of the world, so loud it made my ears ache.

The sea of ​​clouds, stretching for hundreds of miles, was shaken apart and surged, revealing a clear starry sky.

The entire Lion Camel Ridge was shaken so badly that the mountainside cracked open and countless rocks tumbled down.

Some lesser demons were even directly shaken to the point of their souls being scattered and turning into ashes.

Lightning exploded, and mountains shattered.

The towering mountain phantom was shattered by the lightning, turning into countless points of light that dissipated into the void.

Lion Camel King's expression changed drastically, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

This illusory image of "Buzhou" was connected to his mind and body; now that it was broken, he was also severely injured.

Just then, Sun Wukong thrust his spear at him.

The tip of the spear was ablaze with crimson karmic fire, heading straight for the Lion Camel King's heart.

Lion Camel King was unable to dodge and could only watch helplessly as the spear tip pierced his heart.

puff!

The gun tip pierced his body, and blood gushed out.

The crimson lotus fire surged into his body along the tip of the spear.

In an instant, the vengeful spirits and evil ghosts that had accumulated within his body for tens of thousands of years were completely burned away.

Those vengeful spirits screamed in agony amidst the karmic fire, turning into wisps of green smoke and dissipating into the void.

Lion Camel King felt a sharp pain in his chest, as if a piece of his flesh had been ripped out.

Looking down, I saw a large hole in his chest.

The cave was empty; there was nothing there.

His heart had been burned to ashes by the karmic fire of the red lotus.

"No...it's impossible..."

The Lion Camel King muttered to himself, his eyes filled with disbelief.

He had lived for tens of thousands of years and fought countless battles, never imagining that one day he would die here.

He died at the hands of two Heavenly Generals.

Sun Wukong sheathed his Fire-Tipped Spear, the tip still dripping with blood.

He looked at the Lion King and grinned, saying, "Old Lion, go in peace."

"Your Lion Camel Ridge, I, the Crown Prince, will take it over for you!"

Upon hearing this, a hint of resentment flashed in the Lion Camel King's eyes.

He opened his mouth, as if to say something, but only spat out a mouthful of blood.

Blood stained his clothes and beard.

With a sway, he fell from the clouds and plummeted into the abyss.

Before the body even hit the ground, the primordial spirit escaped from the corpse, transforming into a streak of blood-red light, and attempted to flee.

Li Yan was prepared.

With a wave of his hand, a golden light surged from his palm, transforming into a giant golden hand that grabbed at the blood-red light.

The blood-red light struggled for a few moments before being grabbed by the giant golden hand, rendering it unable to move.

Li Yan used the "Seven Arrows of Nailhead" technique to immobilize the Lion Camel King's primordial spirit and take it into his cave.

Inside the cave, the twelve-petaled golden lotus trembled slightly, casting a golden light that enveloped the primordial spirit.

As the golden light entered, the primordial spirit struggled for a few moments before gradually calming down and transforming into a ball of blood-red light, hovering beside the lotus.

Li Yan nodded to himself.

Although the Lion Camel King's primordial spirit was weak, it was still at the level of a Taiyi Golden Immortal.

If it can be refined in the future, it will surely be a great tonic.

Just then, a whooshing sound suddenly came from the horizon.

The whistling sound was sharp and piercing, like a blade cutting through the air.

Li Yan's expression changed slightly, and he looked up.

A streak of blue light, as fast as lightning, appeared on the western horizon and headed straight for them.

Within that azure light, a figure could be faintly seen, its wings spread out, spanning over three zhang (approximately 10 meters).

Who else could it be but the Roc Demon King?

Sun Wukong's golden eyes flashed, and he grinned, "Perfect timing! I was just wondering why I hadn't had enough of a fight!"

Li Yan's expression was grave, and he said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, do not be alarmed. The arrival of this Peng Demon King is suspicious."

He opened his eye of cause and effect and observed carefully.

The Peng Demon King was surrounded by dense, crisscrossing lines of cause and effect.

Among them, there is a golden thread, as thick as a child's arm, that connects to that unknown place in the north.

Above the golden thread, a faint, precious light flowed, containing a breathtaking aura.

"He was sent by the man from the North."

Li Yan's eyes narrowed slightly. "That fellow must have sensed the death of the Lion Camel King and sent the Roc Demon King to rescue him."

Upon hearing this, a fierce glint flashed in Sun Wukong's golden eyes.

"That's perfect! Let's take care of it all at once!"

Li Yan nodded slightly, but said, "Your Majesty, please wait. I have already made arrangements."

Having said that, he raised his hand and pointed.

A beam of golden light shot out from the fingertip and disappeared into the void.

Wherever the golden light passed, the void distorted slightly, rippling outwards.

Ripples spread outwards in concentric circles, gradually filling the entire void.

That was the [Two Elements Dust Demon-Locking Array] that he had secretly set up earlier.

This formation is based on Yin and Yang and uses minute particles as its means of application, making it most effective at trapping the enemy.

Even a Taiyi Golden Immortal would be trapped in the formation for a while.

The Roc Demon King moved with incredible speed, arriving in an instant.

Just as he was about to rush into Lion Camel Ridge, he suddenly felt the scene before him change.

Those majestic mountains and the starry sky all vanished.

What came into view was a gray, hazy void.

In the void, there was only endless mist, churning ceaselessly.

Peng Demon King's expression changed drastically.

"A formation?"

A chill ran down his spine; he knew he had fallen into a trap.

He immediately spread his wings, wanting to leave this void.

But no matter where they flew, all they saw was endless gray fog.

The gray fog seemed boundless, never reaching its end.

Peng Demon King secretly groaned in his heart.

He is a descendant of the Golden-Winged Roc, renowned for his speed, soaring ninety thousand miles high and covering a thousand miles in an instant.

However, within this formation, his speed was completely useless.

No matter how fast you fly, you can't escape this void.

Just then, a voice came from the void.

The sound was clear, melodious, and far-reaching, like celestial music.

"King Peng, I have been waiting here for a long time."

Peng Demon King's expression hardened, and he looked in the direction of the sound.

Two figures slowly emerged from the gray mist.

Two figures slowly emerged from the gray mist.

A figure as imposing as a mountain, with fiery red hair, clad in golden armor and wielding a golden whip.

A flash of lightning, a young man's heroic figure, a fire-tipped spear in hand.

It was the Heavenly King of Growth and Nezha.

Peng Demon King's face turned ashen.

"King of Growth? Nezha? What are you doing here?"

Sun Wukong, disguised as Nezha, laughed and said, "Naturally, I've come to take your life!"

Peng Demon King's heart sank.

I know that today is likely to be a day of bad luck for me.

But he had lived for tens of thousands of years, how could he possibly surrender without a fight?

He immediately spread his wings, and his body surged with a blue light.

Within that azure light, countless tiny blades of light faintly appeared, spreading out and shooting towards Li Yan and Sun Wukong.

Those light blades were his natal magic weapon, the [Chaos Blade], which he had forged from his own feathers.

Each blade of light contains the energy of the Geng metal element of one's birth chart, making it unstoppable.

They were densely packed, covering the sky and the earth, numbering at least tens of thousands.

Li Yan's expression remained unchanged as he raised his hand and waved.

A golden light surged from his palm, transforming into a wall of light that blocked his path.

The light blades crashed into the light wall.

Ding ding ding!

The golden light trembled.

But the wall of light firmly blocked those light blades, without retreating an inch.

Peng Demon King's expression changed slightly.

Even a Taiyi Golden Immortal wouldn't dare to directly confront his Chaos Blade.

But how could this Heavenly King of Growth have blocked them all by himself?

At that moment, Sun Wukong transformed into a streak of red light and rushed straight towards him.

With a flick of his wrist, the tip of the Fire-Tipped Spear gleamed with a cold light.

The Roc Demon King spread his wings and dodged in an instant.

Although he was trapped in the formation and his speed was greatly reduced, he was still much faster than an ordinary Taiyi Golden Immortal.

Sun Wukong missed his target with his spear, but he was not discouraged.

He immediately steadied himself and thrust repeatedly with his fire-tipped spear.

Each shot was faster and more ruthless than the last.

The Roc Demon King flapped its wings repeatedly, dodging left and right, but was still hit by the wind from the spear several times, and several bloody marks appeared on its body.

Although not fatal, the pain is excruciating.

He secretly groaned inwardly.

Nezha's marksmanship was far more refined than he had expected.

Every thrust was aimed at a vital point, making it impossible for him to defend against.

Normally, he wouldn't be afraid, relying on his speed.

But now that they are trapped in the formation, their speed has been greatly reduced, and they can only passively take the beating.

At that moment, Li Yan leaped into the air, transforming into a golden light, and headed straight for the Peng Demon King.

He swung his golden whip and brought it down.

He infused this whip with the power of [Mountain Shaking and Mountain Tremor] and [True Fire of the Sun].

Therefore, the combination of mountain fire and natural fire creates an astonishingly powerful force.

The Roc Demon King's expression changed drastically, and he flapped his wings repeatedly, trying to dodge.

But the golden whip seemed to be everywhere; no matter where he fled, the golden whip was always above his head.

There is no escape.

With a determined heart, the Roc Demon King folded his wings, forming a cyan light screen in front of him.

That light curtain, woven from his own life feathers, was indestructible.

when!

The golden whip struck the light screen, producing a loud bang.

The cyan light barrier trembled violently, flickering unpredictably, yet it steadily blocked the whip.

Peng Demon King was overjoyed.

At that moment, Sun Wukong thrust his spear straight into his back.

The Roc Demon King was unable to dodge in time.

puff!

Blood gushed out.

The Roc Demon King screamed repeatedly as he lunged forward.

The blue light curtain also dissipated.

Taking advantage of the situation, Li Yan lashed out with his whip, striking the Peng Demon King's left wing squarely.

Click!

A huge wound appeared on the left wing of the Roc Demon King.

Blood gushed out like a spring, staining half of his body red.

He was swaying precariously.

That left wing was the foundation of his flight.

Now that he has been crippled, it's as if he's lost an arm, greatly reducing his combat power.

Sun Wukong's golden eyes flashed, and he grinned, "Alright! Let's go again!"

Having said that, he thrust straight at the right wing of the Roc Demon King.

The Roc Demon King was terrified and desperately tried to dodge.

But his left wing was useless, greatly reducing his speed. How could he possibly dodge?

Seeing that the spear was about to pierce his right wing, the Roc Demon King made a snap decision and used a secret technique to burn his magical power.

A streak of blood-red light appeared and merged into the right wing.

The right wing, having received the blessing of the essence and blood, immediately shone brightly.

Countless runes appeared on its wings, with faint phantom images of a roc bird soaring to the sky and letting out a long cry.

With a flap of his wings, the Roc Demon King narrowly avoided the attack.

Sun Wukong missed his target with his spear, but he was not discouraged.

He immediately steadied himself and thrust his spear forward.

The Peng Demon King's left wing was already destroyed, and although his right wing was enhanced by essence and blood, it was difficult to sustain for long.

He dodged left and right, narrowly escaping danger.

Several more wounds appeared on his body, dripping with blood.

Li Yan stood aside, silently observing the Peng Demon King's weaknesses.

The aura emanating from the Roc Demon King, though still vast, was gradually weakening.

Especially the wings, which were covered with cracks, with a faint golden light shining through.

"Your Majesty, I have trapped him with an array. Your Majesty should focus on attacking his wings." Li Yan transmitted his voice secretly.

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong nodded slightly.

Snapped!

Li Yan snapped his fingers.

Several golden beams shot out and disappeared into the void.

Wherever the golden light passed, gray mist surged, and the power of the array intensified.

Peng Demon King felt the pressure around him suddenly increase, as if countless mountains were pressing down on him, making it difficult to move.

His expression changed drastically, and he struggled desperately.

But no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't break free from that invisible pressure.

Seeing the spear thrusting towards him with the force of thunder, he suddenly flipped over, narrowly avoiding a fatal blow.

The tips of its wings were struck by the wind from the gun, and a few green feathers fell, turning into specks of green light and dissipating.

Sun Wukong remained calm. With a flick of his Fire-Tipped Spear, yin and yang energies appeared on the tip of the spear, swirling and intertwining.

The Tai Chi symbol, though seemingly faint, actually contains the principle of mutual generation and restraint between Yin and Yang.

Once trapped, it's like being caught in chaos, with yin and yang reversed and the five elements disordered.

No matter how powerful you are, you will be frozen in place for a short while.

Peng Demon King steeled his heart and spat out a mouthful of azure light.

That azure light was his life essence, containing tens of thousands of years of cultivation.

As soon as it left its mouth, it transformed into a gigantic phantom of a golden-winged roc.

With its wings spread wide, spanning a hundred feet, it pounced towards the shadow of the Tai Chi diagram.

boom!

The entire Yin-Yang Micro Dust Demon-Locking Array trembled violently.

A burst of blue light erupted, shattering the Tai Chi symbol.

Countless points of light scattered and flew, illuminating the hazy void.

Taking advantage of the situation, the Roc Demon King spread his wings and retreated a hundred feet backward.

He was breathing heavily, his face slightly pale.

That last breath of vital energy was quite depleted.

But he couldn't care less about all that; all he wanted was to break free of the formation and escape alive.

Unfortunately, Li Yan would never give him that chance.

Li Yan stood in the void, raising his hands to form a hand seal and chanting incantations.

"The two polarities separate, Yin and Yang are determined. The four symbols are established, the five elements are complete. The eight trigrams interact, the nine palaces are linked..."

The Yin-Yang Micro Dust Demon-Locking Array then began to operate.

The gray fog surged and transformed into black and white vapors.

The two energies swirl and evolve into the Yin-Yang symbol.

As the yin-yang symbol rotates, it further differentiates into the four symbols: Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise.

The four elements cycle and the five elements generate each other: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, each occupying its proper place.

With the Five Elements established, the Eight Trigrams manifest: Qian, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Li, Gen, and Dui.

The eight trigrams are linked together, forming the nine palaces.

One white, two black, three green, four green, five yellow, six white, seven red, eight white, nine purple.

The entire formation at this moment is like a miniature world, containing endless mysteries.

The Peng Demon King was trapped inside, feeling as if he were surrounded by a net of heaven and earth.

No matter where it flies, it is always blocked by the yin and yang energies.

No matter where they flee, the four symbols will suppress them.

He tried his best, flapping his wings repeatedly, but he couldn't break through the multiple layers of blockade.

The Roc Demon King's face turned ashen, and he gritted his teeth, "I'd like to see how long you can keep me trapped!"

After saying that, his body was enveloped in a burst of blue light.

Within that azure light, countless runes faintly emerged, densely packed and endlessly flowing.

He used his natal spirit to activate a secret technique in an attempt to forcibly break the formation.

Upon seeing this, Li Yan shot out a beam of golden light that disappeared into the formation.

Wherever the golden light passed, the yin and yang energies flourished, and the four symbols became even brighter.

The power of the five elements flows endlessly, and the eight trigrams and nine palaces tremble in unison.

The power of the entire formation doubled.

Peng Demon King felt the pressure increase suddenly, and he could hardly breathe.

His face was slightly pale, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered.

Just then, Sun Wukong thrust his spear at him.

The tip of the spear not only contains the energies of Yin and Yang, but also incorporates the power of the Five Elements.

Metal is sharp, wood is fertile, water is supple, fire is intense, and earth is heavy.

The five elements combined into a five-colored ray of light, heading straight for the heart of the Roc Demon King.

The Roc Demon King's expression changed drastically. He folded his wings, which condensed into a cyan light screen in front of him.

That light curtain, woven from her own life feathers, was indestructible.

The spearhead pierced the light screen, producing a loud bang.

A burst of blue light erupted, scattering multicolored rays in all directions.

The light barrier trembled violently, barely managing to block the shot.

Peng Demon King was overjoyed.

At that moment, Li Yan stepped forward and landed on the [Li] position.

Li represents fire.

As he took that step, flames erupted around him.

The flames were crimson with a hint of gold.

Li Yan formed hand seals, drawing upon the power of the true fire of the sun, transforming it into a pillar of crimson-gold light that shot towards the Peng Demon King.

The Peng Demon King's expression changed drastically. He tried to dodge, but was trapped by the formation and could not move.

They could only watch helplessly as the beam of light crashed into the cyan light barrier.

boom!

The azure light screen, though woven from her own life feathers, gradually dimmed under the burning of true fire.

Click!

Click!

On the light screen, tiny cracks appeared.

Those gaps are getting bigger and bigger.

finally,

boom!

The cyan light curtain shattered with a crash.

The Roc Demon King flew backward.

It spewed blood from its mouth, and feathers fell from its wings, revealing the bloody flesh beneath.

That sun's true fire, supremely yang and strong, is specifically designed to overcome yin and evil.

Although he was a descendant of the Golden-Winged Roc, he was still unable to withstand it.

Li Yan struck successfully, but did not stop.

Another step was taken, landing on the [Kan] position.

Kan represents water.

A torrent of floodwater surged forth from his body.

That flood was deep and cold, containing the essence of Gui water.

Li Yan formed hand seals, drawing upon the essence of Gui water, which transformed into a torrent of dark blue water that shot towards Peng Demon King.

The Peng Demon King's face turned pale as he desperately channeled his magic power, condensing it into a beam of azure light in front of him.

But how could that blue light block the essence of Gui water?

Click!

The azure flood struck the Peng Demon King squarely in the chest.

Peng Demon King felt a bone-chilling cold surge into his body.

The chill instantly froze his blood and qi.

His body was stiff and he couldn't move, like an ice sculpture, suspended in the void.

Sun Wukong's golden eyes flashed, and he grinned, "Good! Good! Good!"

Having said that, he thrust his spear forward.

The tip of the spear flashed with cold light, heading straight for the Roc Demon King's throat.

The Roc Demon King was frozen, watching helplessly as the spear thrust towards him, powerless to resist.

Just then, a voice suddenly came from the void.

The voice was grand and solemn, containing supreme majesty.

"stop!"

Sun Wukong paused in his spear thrust and looked up.

Outside the formation, in the void, a figure had appeared out of nowhere.

The figure was enormous, with a wingspan of thousands of feet, blotting out the sky and the sun.

His body radiated golden light and auspicious energy, exuding majesty.

It was the Golden-Winged Roc.

Upon seeing this, Sun Wukong's golden eyes flashed, and he grinned, "Oh! Another big bird has arrived!"

The golden-winged roc's expression darkened, and with a roar like thunder, it swooped down.

"Nezha! King of Growth! How dare you!"

That Roc Demon King is a descendant of my Golden-Winged Roc clan, how dare you lay such a cruel hand on him?

Sun Wukong sneered and said, "What descendants or ancestors?!"

He conspired with the Lion Camel King to murder the Jiao Demon King, a relative by marriage from the North Sea Dragon Palace. We have come to arrest him on the orders of the Jade Emperor!

Do you have a problem with that?

The Golden-Winged Roc's expression changed.

"The Flood Dragon Demon King is dead?"

Sun Wukong said, "Dead! Utterly dead! What, you want to avenge him?"

A fierce glint flashed in the Golden-Winged Roc's eyes, but it forcibly suppressed its anger.

He was the Buddha's maternal uncle, a man of noble status. How could he stoop to the level of these two Heavenly generals?

But if they just stand by and watch the Roc King die here, what will become of the reputation of the Golden-Winged Roc clan?

Thinking of this, the Golden-Winged Roc said in a deep voice:

"Nezha, Heavenly King of Growth, I don't care whose decree you are following."

That Roc Demon King is a descendant of my Golden-Winged Roc clan; you must not kill him.

Sun Wukong asked, "On what grounds?"

The Golden-Winged Roc said, "It's all because I am the maternal uncle of the Buddha!"

"Just because my Golden-Winged Roc clan has kinship ties with Mount Ling!"

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong burst into laughter.

The laughter echoed in the void, causing the sea of ​​clouds to surge.

"Buddha's maternal uncle?"

What a powerful background!

"I, the Crown Prince, would like to ask you: has your nephew ever given you any favors?"

The Golden-Winged Roc's expression darkened.

Sun Wukong then said, "You said you are the maternal uncle of the Buddha."

Do you know how the Roc Demon King later managed to reappear and establish his own power?

Upon hearing this, the Golden-Winged Roc's expression shifted slightly.

Seeing this, Sun Wukong sneered, "Can't say it now, can you?"

This prince tells you that Peng Demon King committed a crime on Mount Ling back then and was expelled from the mountain.

Now he's causing trouble and making trouble outside again.

Such a wicked creature deserves to die!

The Golden-Winged Roc's face turned ashen, and he was speechless for a moment.

At that moment, Li Yan, transformed into the Heavenly King of Growth, holding a golden whip, solemnly said:

"Great Roc King, I have a word of advice to offer."

The golden-winged roc looked at Li Yan.

Li Yan said, "That Peng Demon King's crimes are irrefutable and cannot be denied."

If the Ming King were to protect him, he would be making an enemy of the Heavenly Court and the Jade Emperor.

Even though the Ming emperor is of high status, he still needs to consider whether it is worthwhile.

Upon hearing this, the Golden-Winged Roc's expression changed repeatedly.

How could he not know that Li Yan's words were all reasonable?

If he were to forcefully intervene and save the Peng Demon King, he would be making an enemy of the Heavenly Court.

Although he was of noble status, he dared not easily offend the Heavenly Court.

Moreover, although the Roc Demon King and he belonged to the same Golden-Winged Roc clan, they were not close relatives.

They were just distant descendants; they died, so what? Why make such a fuss over this?

But if they just stand by and watch, where will the face of the Golden-Winged Roc clan go?

The golden-winged roc pondered for a moment, just about to speak.

Sun Wukong, however, did not give him the chance.

Sun Wukong thrust his spear forward, the tip striking the Roc Demon King squarely in the throat.

call out!

Peng Demon King's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.

He opened his mouth, as if to say something, but only spat out a mouthful of blood.

The body then burst into flames.

His primordial spirit escaped from between his eyebrows, transforming into a streak of green light, and was about to fly away.

Li Yan witnessed this scene.

Golden light shot from his eyes, enveloping the blue light.

The blue light struggled a few times, but ultimately it was helpless.

next moment.

The blue light was captured in his hand.

With a flick of his hand, it was drawn into the cave, hovering beside the lotus flower, standing side by side with the blood-red sphere of light.

The Golden-Winged Roc watched all of this unfold, its face turning ashen.

He spread his wings and was about to make his move.

Sun Wukong had already sheathed his Fire-Tipped Spear, stood in the void, looked at the Golden-Winged Roc, and grinned:

"Big bird, what are you glaring at me for? You got a problem with that?"

The Golden-Winged Roc gritted its teeth: "Nezha, how dare you!"

Sun Wukong chuckled and said, "This prince has always been bold. What, you want to have a match?"

The golden-winged roc, enraged, laughed instead.

"I'd like to see just how capable you are!"

Having said that, it spread its wings and was about to rush into the formation.

But as soon as he moved, he felt a vast power surging from the formation.

That power is invisible and formless, yet it is omnipresent.

The Golden-Winged Roc felt its body freeze, blocked outside the formation, unable to advance an inch.

His expression changed, and he flapped his wings repeatedly, his body radiating golden light as he tried to forcefully break the formation.

However, the Yin-Yang Microcosm Demon-Locking Array was a grand array set up by Li Yan using the power of his grotto-heaven as a foundation and incorporating the profound mysteries of the twelve-petaled golden lotus.

Even a Great Immortal, if he accidentally enters the formation, will be trapped for half a cup of tea.

Although the Golden-Winged Roc is powerful, it is only at the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm. How can it break through?

He charged left and right, but he couldn't break through the barrier of the formation no matter what he did.

Upon seeing this, Sun Wukong smiled even more broadly.

"Big bird, your skills aren't all that great! You can't even break a formation, yet you want to fight this prince?"

Upon seeing this, Sun Wukong smiled even more broadly.

"Big bird, your skills aren't all that great! You can't even break a formation, yet you want to fight this prince?"

Upon hearing this, the Golden-Winged Roc trembled with rage.

He is the maternal uncle of the Buddha, and since birth, he has never suffered such humiliation.

Unfortunately, he couldn't break the formation and could only watch helplessly as the two heavenly generals swaggered around within it.

It was at this moment.

Li Yan stood in the void, his expression serene.

"Great Roc King, I advise you to go back."

The Golden-Winged Roc gritted its teeth: "Don't even think about it!"

Li Yan shook his head slightly.

"If the King insists on fighting, I will not stop him."

However, the wise king needs to think this through.

That Peng Demon King was merely a distant descendant of your Golden-Winged Roc clan; his death is no big deal.

If the Ming King were to stand up for him, he would be making an enemy of the Heavenly Court.

At that time, the Jade Emperor was furious and sent heavenly soldiers and generals to conquer Mount Ling.

"Your Majesty, are you capable of shouldering this responsibility?"

Upon hearing this, the Golden-Winged Roc's expression changed repeatedly.

How could he not know that every word Li Yan said was true?

If he were to stand up for the Peng Demon King and anger the Heavenly Court, thus triggering a conflict between Buddhism and Taoism, he would not be able to bear that responsibility.

Even the Buddha himself could not bear such a burden.

But if he went back like this, how could he swallow his anger?

The golden-winged roc's expression was uncertain, and it remained silent for a long time.

Seeing this, Sun Wukong added fuel to the fire.

"Big Bird, go back and tell your nephew that this is what I, the Crown Prince, said."

Tell him to keep his birds in check and not let them fly around causing trouble.

"If there's a next time, I, the Crown Prince, won't be so lenient!"

Upon hearing this, the Golden-Winged Roc trembled with rage.

He pointed at Sun Wukong, gritting his teeth, and said:

"I'll remember this! Nezha, Heavenly King of Growth, you just wait!"

Having said that, it spread its wings and transformed into a golden light, disappearing into the western horizon.

Sun Wukong stared at the vanishing golden light and grinned, "Just you wait! Do you think I'm afraid of you?"

Li Yan's expression was solemn, and he said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, do not be careless."

"While the Golden-Winged Roc is not to be feared, the sacred mountain behind it should not be underestimated."

Sun Wukong asked, "Brother, do you mean that Buddha will stand up for him?"

Li Yan shook his head slightly.

"As the master of Mount Sumeru, Buddha is of noble status. Why would he personally intervene in such a trivial matter?"

But within Mount Ling, there are countless masters.

If that Golden-Winged Roc goes back and stirs up trouble, I'm afraid there will be trouble.

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong's golden eyes flashed, and he asked, "Then what should we do?"

Li Yan pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "Your Majesty, please do not be hasty. I already have a plan."

"Your Majesty should think that the Golden-Winged Roc will surely complain to the Buddha after it returns."

But who did he complain about?

Sun Wukong said, "Naturally, it's Nezha and the Heavenly King of Growth."

Li Yan nodded and said, "That's right."

If Nezha and the Heavenly King of Growth are truly still in Heaven, then there is still evidence to corroborate this matter.

But Your Majesty, don't forget that the real Nezha and the Heavenly King of Growth are currently on duty in Heaven.

"When the Golden-Winged Roc returns and tells the truth, Buddha will surely send someone to the Heavenly Court to verify it."

At that time, the real Nezha and the Heavenly King of Growth will appear, and the Golden-Winged Roc's accusation will be deemed a false accusation.

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong's golden eyes lit up.

"Does my brother mean he should sue, even if he can't win?"
