Journey to the West: Starting with the True Lord of the Pure Land

Chapter 395 The Authority of the Grotto Heaven, Hating the True Monarch

It is said that Chen Jiao killed the Azure Dragon's true spirit and obtained the myriad azure energies that gathered into a profound jade talisman.

In the blink of an eye, the commotion was considerable, already alarming the surrounding area.

The immortal cultivators and demons watching from afar strained their eyes to observe, and seeing the azure aura gathering, they all knew that this True Monarch must have received an extraordinary legacy from an ancient immortal.

The moment the thought of greed arose in their hearts, they were all startled and immediately suppressed it.

To seize this opportunity from the evil star is tantamount to courting death.

In the blink of an eye, all eyes turned to the green bend surrounded by azure energy, their eagerness growing even stronger.

Since this official shares the same origin as the Azure Dragon, there might be a legitimate reason to execute him.

Before this thought could even be conceived, an unexpected change occurred.

"Hey!"

The Azure Phoenix was enveloped in boundless azure energy, and suddenly let out a long cry that could pierce through metal and split rocks. Its sound was clear and melodious, yet contained boundless killing intent.

Accompanied by a cry, a vast and boundless blue aura erupted, spreading outwards in all directions like a tidal wave.

The closest two, Master Ziyang and Lion Camel King, were the first to be hit. Their expressions changed drastically, and they tried to escape, but it was too late.

The azure mist appeared gentle, but it was actually swift, engulfing the two figures in an instant.

Wherever the green mist passed, countless tender shoots sprang up out of thin air, growing rapidly with the touch of the wind.

In the blink of an eye, they transformed into lush, resilient green vines, winding and coiling around as if they possessed a spirit.

"not good!"

Master Ziyang flicked his whisk, and the Lion Camel King unleashed his demonic power, both employing various techniques.

However, the green vines seemed endless; cutting one off would cause two more to grow back. Furthermore, a stagnant force entered the body along with the green energy, making the flow of magical power extremely difficult.

In the blink of an eye, the two were bound by layers of green vines, as if trapped in a cocoon, their bodies involuntarily falling towards the blue waves below, struggling in vain, unable to break free for a time.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—!"

The sound of something cutting through the air was incessant.

In the void, thousands of long vines suddenly appeared, intertwining like a net, covering the sky and the sun, and enveloping the entire area within a thousand miles.

Those cultivators who were fighting the jade beast and trying to collect the jade talisman were terrified when they saw the boundless sea of ​​vines sweeping in. They no longer cared about the beast or the jade talisman and hurriedly used their escape techniques, turning into streaks of light and dodging in the gaps between the vines. For a moment, green shadows appeared on the blue waves and rainbows flashed all over the sky, making them look quite disheveled.

Chen Jiao's eyes narrowed slightly, not expecting that killing one spirit would cause such a strange change in another.

At this moment, the aura of the Azure Phoenix is ​​far stronger than before, and it has even used the aura of the Jianmu tree to create this kind of formation that traps heaven and earth.

His mind raced, and he tightened his grip on the Thunder Halberd, ready to strike.

The curved bird perched high in the center of the azure mist cast a cold glance at us with its pair of jade-green eyes.

In an instant, Chen Jiao felt his energy suddenly stagnate, as if he had fallen into an invisible swamp, and his limbs were bound by thousands of invisible dragons and pythons at the same time, making him unable to move for a moment.

Before he could activate his lightning magic to break free, the Azure Phoenix's eyes had already blazed brightly.

In the next instant, boundless blue light surged from all directions, completely engulfing his figure.

Beyond the blue light, hundreds of green vines intertwine and entwine layer upon layer.

The blue light flowed and the energy of the creatures intertwined, and in the blink of an eye, a huge blue cocoon appeared where Chen Jiao was standing, trapping him firmly inside.

Clearly, this Azure Phoenix possessed extraordinary intelligence and harbored the deepest hatred for Chen Jiao, who had slain the Azure Dragon, and thus showed him the utmost care.

"this----"

Those mystical cultivators and spirits who were frantically dodging the whipping vines in the distance turned pale upon seeing this scene.

The Heavenly Court True Lord, who could suppress the Azure Dragon with a mere gesture and whose divine might was awe-inspiring, was also imprisoned by this Azure Phoenix Breath.

A young Taoist priest, who was wielding a flying sword, turned around and saw the green cocoon floating in mid-air. His expression froze, and he whispered in disbelief, "Even True Monarch Jingfa has been suppressed?"

Before he could finish speaking, a sword flashed beside him; it was his senior brother.

His senior brother yanked him several feet away, narrowly avoiding a fierce vine whip, and shouted sternly, "At this critical moment of life and death, what are you thinking about! Take care of yourself!"

After saying this, he didn't turn back, grabbed the young Taoist and fled into the distance, but his heart, like everyone else's, was shrouded in a thick gloom.

Even that all-powerful True Lord was subdued in an instant; today, things are probably going to be difficult for him.

Seeing Chen Jiao trapped in the green cocoon, the group of celestial immortals and true immortals showed no signs of worry. Instead, their eyes gleamed with a hint of joy.

Compared to directly confronting this ruthless and deadly True Lord, who could easily destroy both body and soul, and fighting against him for the jade talisman opportunity contained within the Azure Curve, they would rather face this ancient True Spirit, which was ultimately formed from a restriction.

After all, no matter how powerful the demonic bird's supernatural abilities are, there are still methods to follow and loopholes to exploit.

The thunder halberd and the fists that could annihilate all laws were truly chilling.

The golden-winged roc with its wings broken, and the ancient azure dragon with its head severed, serve as cautionary tales.

It is unclear who struck first, but a crimson demonic flame tore through the gaps in the vine net like a meteor, heading straight for Qingwan.

This move was like throwing a stone into water, instantly breaking the deadlock.

"Let's do it!"

"Opportunity knocks, let's see who uses what!"

Amidst shouts, powerful auras erupted without restraint.

A host of immortals and demons, some using magical treasures, some casting spells, and some displaying supernatural powers, each displayed their own methods. In an instant, various colors of light filled the sky, all wanting to kill this true spirit before others and seize its origin jade talisman.

Everyone unleashed their supernatural powers and magical treasures, and a murderous intent surged toward Qingluan.

With its pair of emerald eyes blazing with fury, Qingluan stretched its neck and let out a long cry. Then, a vast and pure azure Dao energy descended from the Jianmu tree, like a celestial river pouring down, continuously flowing into Qingluan's body!

In an instant, the Azure Phoenix spread its wings, and divine light flowed in its green eyes, revealing the indifferent majesty of an ancient deity.

"Oh no! This beast took advantage of the terrain!"

An old demon exclaimed in surprise, and the attack involuntarily slowed down.

Everyone's hearts sank.

This blue phoenix seemed to share the same origin and essence as the Jianmu tree; the more fiercely it was attacked, the more abundant the feedback it received!

But the arrow is already on the bowstring, and there is no turning back.

The golden thread that the Roc Demon King transformed into touched it first, but it burst into a string of dazzling sparks, and its body was forcibly bounced away.

The mountain that the Lion Camel King moved there was swept away by a single wing of the Azure Phoenix, collapsing and scattering amidst a deafening roar, with rocks flying everywhere.

The Monkey King's elusive iron rod struck the Azure Phoenix's neck, only emitting a few sparks of blue flame. The recoil made the Phoenix grimace and hastily flee, thus escaping a calamity.

The blue phoenix raised its head and suddenly flapped its wings!

"call!"

Wherever the azure flames passed, thousands of azure vines automatically disintegrated and merged into them, increasing their power even further.

The protective aura of the several celestial demon kings at the forefront shattered like paper. Before they could even utter a scream, they were swallowed up and instantly transformed into lifeless wooden statues, which then dissipated into wisps of green smoke.

Then, strands of azure divine chains descended from the branches of the Jianmu tree, sealing off all directions and completely dismantling the previous attacks, thus forming an encirclement.

The expressions of all the immortal cultivators and demons changed.

This Azure Phoenix, favored by the Jianmu tree, is no longer merely a restrictive spirit; it seems to be acting as the de facto ruler of this grotto-heaven!
