Chapter 171 True and False
It wasn't that Yang Jian abandoned the Monkey King on purpose.
The main reason is that the stone pillar where the Monkey King is located is too close to the demon kings!
If he went to rescue the Monkey King, he would not only be easily discovered, but he would also not have enough time to rescue others.
"Where are you going!" The golden-winged Roc reacted the fastest. Almost at the moment when the strong wind swept up all the gods, it leaped into the air and turned into a ray of golden light and chased after them.
In just a moment, he caught up with the strong wind.
At this moment, the golden-winged Roc suddenly felt an extremely dangerous and uneasy feeling in his heart.
He instinctively turned his body to the side.
boom!
A ray of divine light passed by the body of the golden-winged Roc and hit the mountain range below, directly blasting a peak into the ground. The sky and the earth shook, and dust rose into the sky.
"Yang Jian! It's you!" The golden-winged Roc's eyes were full of ferocity, and he roared with gritted teeth.
That year, as soon as he came down from Vulture Peak, he teamed up with the yellow-toothed old elephant and the green-haired lion monster to kill the Lion King, one of the seven most famous saints at that time, who could move mountains. He then ate up all the civil and military officials in the Lion King Kingdom in one breath.
Just when he was full of ambition and was about to become famous in the three realms, he was attacked by Yang Jian and suffered a great loss.
Later, he sneaked into the Southern Continent with the Yellow-toothed Old Elephant and the Green-haired Lion Monster, intending to kill the Three Holy Mothers and take revenge on Yang Jian.
As a result , he lost more than he gained.
Not only did they fail to kill the Three Holy Mothers, but they also lost a green-haired lion monster, which turned the three brothers into two brothers and made them completely the laughing stock of Xiniu Hezhou.
After that, Yang Jian hunted them for decades, forcing them to hide from place to place and missed the best time to expand their power.
So much so that after so many years, they still only have two territories, the Lion Camel Kingdom and the Lion Camel Ridge, and they don't even have a demon king worth their salt.
One can imagine the hatred that the Golden-Winged Peng Eagle has for Yang Jian.
He has been practicing hard all these years just to seek revenge on Yang Jian.
This is also an important reason why he agreed to join forces with Bull Demon King.
With its enemy in front of it, the Golden-Winged Roc subconsciously slowed down its speed.
It seemed that he was guarding against Yang Jian's sneak attack, but in fact he was filled with fear and cowardice that he himself was not even aware of and would not admit!
As he slowed down, the other monsters followed him. When they heard the golden-winged Roc roaring Yang Jian's name and saw the ruins below, they did not dare to be careless. They took out their weapons and looked around vigilantly.
But after waiting for a while, there was no movement.
It was quiet all around.
Instead, the strong wind swept the gods farther and farther away.
The monsters realized that Yang Jian was not lying in ambush, but they did not move.
They came here at the invitation of the Bull Demon King, either for fame, profit or Tang Monk's flesh, each with their own purpose, but these gods were obviously not among their purposes.
At this time, facing Yang Jian, the number one war god in heaven, no one was willing to be the first to stand out, and they all turned their eyes to the golden-winged Roc.
"You shouldn't wear armor. It would be more appropriate to wear a plain dress with a collar and skirt." The golden-winged Roc sneered and flapped its wings to chase after them.
All the demon kings stood there in a daze, wondering if there was something wrong with their ears.
Coming to his senses, he flew into a rage.
"You damned flat-headed bastard! You are so arrogant!"
"I don't know who was chased by Yang Jian and had to hide like a mouse, but now he has become so powerful!"
"He is just relying on the fact that we are all here! If it were just him, I'm afraid he wouldn't dare to come forward even if we gave him a few more courage!"
The demons cursed and looked at the old elephant with yellow teeth with unfriendly eyes.
The old yellow-fanged elephant's expression froze.
He has always known that the Golden-Winged Roc is arrogant and presumptuous, relying on the fact that he is the son of the Phoenix and looking down on everyone.
However, he did not expect that the golden-winged Roc would be so arrogant!
With just one sentence, all these demon kings were offended!
"I shouldn't have sworn brotherhood with him back then! If it weren't for him, my brother wouldn't have been taken back by Manjusri!"
The old yellow-fanged elephant couldn't help but complain about the golden-winged Roc in his heart, but he also knew that the two of them were now in a situation where they would prosper and suffer together.
"Second brother, wait for me!" The old elephant with yellow teeth shouted and hurriedly chased after the golden-winged Roc.
Monsters always do whatever they want, so there's no guarantee that these monster kings won't become ferocious and take their anger out on him.
"That flat-headed beast is so rampant, I think he doesn't need us. Let the two brothers go by themselves! Let's go back and continue drinking!" After saying this, the Asura Ghost King turned around and went back to Cuiyun Mountain.
The other demon kings followed closely behind.
They are all powerful monsters that are feared by others. Even if their strength is not as good as the golden-winged Roc, there is no need to bother to please others.
On the other side, the Monkey King saw that everyone else had been rescued, and his face was full of anxiety: "Don't go! I'm still here...ah!"
The Bull Demon King whipped the Monkey King hard, interrupted him, and shouted: "Shut up!"
One whip was not enough to vent his anger, so the Bull Demon King whipped the Monkey King a few more times until he was .
"Brother Honglian, what's going on?"
The Bull Demon King turned his head and looked at the Red Lotus Demon King next to him.
He tied these captives here openly, firstly to put pressure on Heaven to force it to submit, and secondly to lure Heaven into the trap.
These stone pillars seem to be arranged neatly and there is nothing special about them.
In fact, they are all made of flint that has been tempered for hundreds of years in the Flame Mountain. There are Taoist patterns and talismans engraved on the bottom. Together with the demon soldiers and generals guarding nearby, they form the Nanming Lihuo Array.
If the people entering the formation do not carry special talismans, they will be surrounded by the Nanming Lihuo in an instant, and will be skinned alive if they do not die.
The Bull Demon King couldn’t understand why the formation was not triggered even though the person was rescued?
"I'll go and take a look."
The Red Lotus Demon King was the one who set up the formation. He was as confused as the Bull Demon King. He walked quickly to the stone pillar, squatted down and was about to take a look when suddenly, dazzling red lights appeared around him.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Balls of Nanming Lihuo burned fiercely, surrounding the Red Lotus Demon King, and then suddenly gathered towards the center.
The Red Lotus Demon King remained calm, took out a palm-sized gourd from his arms and threw it over his head.
The bottom of the gourd was facing upwards, and the mouth was facing downwards, emitting red light and absorbing all the Nanming Lihuo.
The Bull Demon King was shocked when he saw the Nanming Lihuo suddenly appear outside. He was not relieved until the Red Lotus Demon King took away the flames. He stepped forward and asked, "Daoist Fellow Honglian, what's going on?"
"Don't come over here!"
The Red Lotus Demon King quickly stopped the Bull Demon King. Seeing the confusion on his face, he explained, "Someone has reversed the formation. Ordinary people can come in fine, but people holding talismans will be attacked by the formation..."
Before the Red Lotus Demon King could finish his words, the golden protective talisman he carried with him was suddenly triggered, transforming into a layer of red flame shield that covered him.
Snap!
Next second.
The light mask shattered directly.
The Red Lotus Demon King was horrified and dodged to the side in panic, but he only avoided the vital part of his heart.
puff!
A golden light burst out with blood.
The golden light flashed by, but the Red Lotus Demon King still saw it clearly. It was a golden file as thick as a thumb and as long as a chopstick!
"Li Anran!"
The Red Lotus Demon King roared, and made some hand gestures. He activated the magic weapon to protect his body while looking around for any trace of Li Anran.
"Li Anran?!"
The Bull Demon King was stunned for a moment, then he realized what the Red Lotus Demon King meant. The person who reversed the formation was actually the prison god Li Anran!
"Great! How dare that fellow come here again! I will definitely capture him today and exchange him for my son! Let's see if the Jade Emperor agrees!"
The Bull Demon King looked around but found no trace of Li Anran. He flew into the air and looked down for a while, but still found nothing.
The Bull Demon King was of an irritable temperament to begin with, and after all this effort proved fruitless, he felt like he was about to explode, gasping for breath, with two streams of white mist continuously spewing out of his nose.
When the demon kings came back, they saw this scene and stepped forward to persuade them, "Brother Niu, don't get angry! Those hairy gods have been rescued, so we can catch them again!"
"It's not because of them, it's because of Li Anran!" The Bull Demon King told the demons about the matter.
"Ah?!" The demons were shocked and a little bit unbelieving: "Brother Niu, could you be mistaken? Li Anran might have already escaped!"
Yang Jian dared to use sleight of hand to tease them and save people in front of them. He was already extremely bold!
How dare Li Anran, the prison god, not leave but hide in the dark and launch a sneak attack?
The Bull Demon King was not too sure either, so he looked up at the Red Lotus Demon King.
"The golden file that attacked me just now is Taiyi Tianzun's cave-suppressing magic weapon! It is extremely powerful, but the casting distance is limited! Li Anran must still be nearby!"
The Red Lotus Demon King spoke in a firm tone, his eyes sweeping over the little demons around him.
He suspected that Li Anran used some transformation technique and hid among these little monsters.
The Red Lotus Demon King told the other demons his guess.
The demons immediately started to check out the little demons nearby.
However, after checking from beginning to end, there was still no result.
Ruyi Zhenxian said: "Brother, brothers, the prison god is very cunning. Instead of wasting time looking for him, why not let him come out on his own!"
Seeing the monsters' puzzled expressions, he pointed at the Monkey King and said, "Sun Wukong and Li Anran are very close. If we can't find him, we can attack Sun Wukong! I don't believe he will just sit there and do nothing!"
Monkey King: “???”
The demon kings: “!!!”
Bull Demon King: “!!!”
The Bull Demon King was overjoyed: "My dear brother, you are so talented! I will do as you say!"
All the demon kings nodded in agreement: "I didn't expect you, Immortal Ruyi, to have such insight! I underestimated you before!"
The intelligence of these monster kings is not inferior to that of humans, but because monsters have always respected the strong, they are used to solving problems with their fists, and their brains have degenerated into being more direct and simple.
Only those who are not strong will try their best to use their brains to solve problems and appear to be smarter.
Ruyi Zhenxian belongs to the middle category.
His cultivation is not strong, but he has reached the peak level of True Immortal.
His brain is not particularly sharp, but he is quite clever.
This is also the reason why he, as the younger brother of the Bull Demon King, makes money by collecting abortion fees!
"My brothers, you are too kind."
Ruyi Zhenxian was very proud and humble.
The Monkey King was about , and hurriedly shouted: "Brother Niu, I am really not familiar with that prison god!"
The Bull Demon King snorted coldly and said, "Not familiar? Then why did he listen to your coming down to the mortal world and capture my son back to heaven? And now he is not willing to risk his life to save you?"
The Monkey King: “…” What you said makes sense, but it’s really not right!
Li Anran was about to take action, but seeing this, he decided to wait a little longer.
The most important thing when facing an enemy is to know yourself and your enemy. He wants to see what methods this Bull Demon King has!
Well, it was definitely not intentional to torture the Monkey King!
"Brother Niu." The Monkey King wanted to explain, but the Bull Demon King did not give him a chance and started whipping him hard with the whip.
This time he wanted to force Li Anran to show up, so his attack was much heavier than before. With one whip, the Monkey King's skin was torn and blood was gushing out.
However, the Monkey King had practiced the Eight-Nine Mysterious Arts, and his body had a strong ability to recover. These flesh wounds healed slowly in a short while.
However, the pain will not be reduced at all!
Soon, the Monkey King's explanation turned into screams.
"What prison god! He's nothing but a coward! He watched his brothers being tortured because of him, and he didn't even dare to come out! It's so funny!"
The Bull Demon King cursed and beat Li Anran at the same time, trying to provoke him to come out, but his sarcasm was not even enough to scratch the itch for Li Anran.
"Damn you! You cowardly bastard!"
The Bull Demon King whipped for a long time, but Li Anran didn't respond. He was so angry that his three corpses were raging. He simply threw the whip away and replaced it with a boning knife, which he pressed against the Monkey King's heart.
"Li Anran, I'll only give you one stick of incense! If you don't come out, I'll skin this Monkey King and burn him to ashes!"
As he spoke, the Bull Demon King winked at the Red Lotus Demon King.
The Red Lotus Demon King frowned slightly, but still chanted the magic formula and shot out nine flaming nails burning with the Nanming Li Fire, which were nailed into the Monkey King's Baihui, eyebrows, heart, dantian, and five internal organs respectively, sealing the Monkey King's spirit and the five qi in his chest.
Everyone knows that the monkey has an indestructible body and it is difficult to hurt him with just a sword!
However, if the essence, spirit and five energies are all sealed, then it will be different!
The monkey king's expression changed completely, and he begged for mercy in a panic, "Brother Niu, I really have nothing to do with Li Anran! Please let me go!"
He had only suffered a little before, but now it was going to cost him his life!
"Shut up!"
The Bull Demon King moved the sharp knife closer to the Monkey King's heart and was about to continue threatening Li Anran.
"ah!!!"
A shrill scream suddenly rang out.
All the demon kings were startled and looked in the direction of the sound. They saw the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord lying on the ground with a big hole in his chest. Dark green blood was flowing all over the ground. It was obvious that he would not live long.
"Senior Brother!" The spider spirits came to their senses and rushed towards the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord crying.
The demon kings also hurried over to check the situation.
The Asura Ghost King was the closest, and he asked the Red Spider Spirit who was leading the group, "What's going on? The Hundred-Eyed Demon..."
Before he could finish his words, Red Spider suddenly raised his head, and there was an extra vertical eye on his forehead.
The Shura Ghost King was stunned, and before he could react what was happening, his eyes suddenly opened and a divine light burst out.
boom!
In an instant, the Shura Ghost King's body turned into ashes and his soul was destroyed.
"Yang Jian! She is the transformed Yang Jian!" Bull Demon King shouted.
The monsters suddenly changed color.
I never expected that not only did the prison god Li Anran not leave!
Yang Jian didn't leave either!
