Chapter 40: No Escape
Chen Jiu successfully established his foundation. There was no strange phenomenon between heaven and earth, and both sides of the Wei River were still calm as usual.
On Yu Qi's side, the number of golden-bodied gods has already reached hundreds, and the hilltop on the right bank of the Wei River has also been slowly transformed by him into the appearance of the underworld. Even in broad daylight, it looks a bit eerie and scary.
Wang Xiangkun sat cross-legged on the back of a giant bat, looking at the huge building below, stunned.
This place doesn't seem to be like this!
The giant bat suddenly asked, "Xiang Kun, are you sure you found Chen Jiu here last time?"
Wang Xiangkun said carefully: "The terrain along the way is correct, but there is something wrong in this mountain. I didn't rush in at that time, and was led to the Tree Demon King by Chen Jiu at the edge of the mountain. I don't know what it is like in here."
That should be correct, but the problem is that there is no one there, only a bunch of bald gods.
What is going on here?
Wang Zhiji scanned again with his spiritual sense, but still found no clues.
This is not a solution.
He circled in the sky for a while, then flew back with Wang Xiangkun.
Soon, they landed in a mountain area a few miles away.
Wang Zhiji said decisively: "Huashan, wait here."
After saying that, he jumped up again and soared into the sky.
Wang Xiangkun suddenly turned into a mountain dozens of feet high, blending seamlessly into the entire mountain area.
In fact, their whereabouts had long been discovered by the gods under Yu Qi.
It’s just that the stone bat transformed by Wang Zhiji looked similar to the bat soldiers under the Tree Demon King in the sky, so Yu Qi didn’t take it seriously after receiving the news.
At this moment, their territory has expanded eastward for more than a hundred miles, and is almost approaching the territory . The Tree Demon King often sends bat soldiers to investigate, and they are used to it.
Chen Jiu meant that the two sides would eventually fight, but the number of golden-bodied gods under their command was far less than that of the bat soldiers under the Tree Demon King. To be on the safe side, it would be better not to bother with the Tree Demon King for the time being.
If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move either. If the Tree Demon King doesn't send bat soldiers to attack, they won't attack the Tree Demon King's body either. They will accumulate strength first, and when the number of golden body gods far exceeds that of the bat soldiers, they will rush over in one fell swoop to destroy the Tree Demon King's body!
Chen Jiu just said that, but Yu Qi thought about more.
At this moment, he was considering whether to ask the Honghuang Divine Cauldron to refine a batch of giant bows that were about ten feet long. After all, when the war started, they would have to face thousands of bat soldiers. If they could not shoot the bat soldiers down from the sky, they would be quite passive.
He was sitting in the newly built Hall of Yama, deep in thought, when suddenly an old man with white hair and beard appeared in the hall.
The spiritual officer of Wang Clan of Langya!
He narrowed his eyes slightly and asked sternly, "Who are you and what are you doing here?"
The old man didn't say anything more and asked directly, "Have you ever seen a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old, tall and thin, who looked quite heroic and extraordinary?"
Of course I have.
Yu Qi shook his head without hesitation and said, "I've never seen you before, I don't know you. If you have nothing to do, get out of here right now. This is not the place for you."
Upon hearing this, the old man smiled slightly, then disappeared into the ground in a flash.
Yu Qi's face darkened, and he shouted loudly to the outside: "Xu Gou!"
A golden-bodied god came in upon hearing the sound, clasped his hands and bowed, saying, "I am here."
Yu Qi said solemnly: "Hurry up and inform Master Jiu that someone from Wang Clan of Langya is here to find us."
The golden god named Xu Gou bowed and said "Yes, sir", then turned around and walked out quickly.
He was one of the dozen or so headless ghosts at the time and also Yu Qi's most trusted confidant, so Chen Jiu once took him to the Dihuo Valley to find his way.
There is no doubt that Wang Clan of Langya and Beiyinsi will send people over sooner or later. Chen Jiu also guessed that they will definitely search for Yu Qi, and this Xu Gou is the one he specially designated to tip off.
He seemed to have calculated everything, but he missed one thing: this old immortal Wang Zhiji from the Wang family of Langya was an old bastard!
When Wang Zhiji heard that Chen Jiu liked to play dirty, he immediately decided to bring only Wang Xiangkun and sneak over here secretly.
He could tell at a glance that Yu Qi and his gang must know Chen Jiu, so he deliberately alerted them and said in front of Yu Qi that he was looking for Chen Jiu.
Sure enough, Yu Qi was fooled and immediately sent his trusted men to inform Chen Jiu.
This old bastard had already turned into a piece of black stone and was waiting at the foot of the mountain. Xu Gou was completely unaware of it and waded across the Wei River, running wildly towards the Dihuo Valley. He turned into a stone and then a piece of soil, and followed him like a chameleon.
How could Chen Jiu have imagined that an earthly immortal could be so insidious. He had just successfully established his foundation and was preparing to practice the Four Styles of Creation to test its power.
However, he didn't dare to try it in the Earth Fire Valley.
Because the power of the Four Styles of Creation is too great, if they cut a bunch of messy cracks in the Earth Fire Valley, the entire Earth Fire Valley will probably be swallowed up by lava. By then, not only will the shed he has built with great effort be destroyed, but the materials in the Earth Fire Valley and the big copper pot made from the Honghuang Divine Cauldron will probably not be moved in time.
The golden body material is his reliance for conquering the Yin and Yang world, and the demon king soup in the big copper pot is his reliance for breaking through the eighth level of the Tiger Demon Divine Fist. He can't act rashly and destroy these.
It was already afternoon. In the evening he usually went to the bank of the Wei River to practice, and in the morning he would absorb the blood and spirit and then return to the Dihuo Valley to eat meat and drink soup.
So, he simply took Jiaona, the wolf demon and others and ran for ten miles towards the Wei River, and found a valley in the mountains.
He had just brought Jiaona and the others to the top of a mountain and was about to run down to practice the Four Moves of Creation when he saw a bald golden figure running towards them from a distance.
This is the person sent by Yu Qi to report the news!
He hurried over and asked, "Xu Gou, what's wrong?"
Xu Gou really didn't expect to meet Chen Jiu on the way. He was stunned for a moment, then he bowed and said, "Master Jiu, Master Qi said that someone from Wang Clan of Langya is here."
The person coming this time is most likely an earthly immortal!
Upon hearing this, Chen Jiu couldn't help but asked solemnly, "How many people have come? Have you found any traces of them?"
Xu Gou shook his head slightly and said, "No, the team we sent out to inspect didn't see anyone."
What does this mean?
Could it be that the people from Wang Clan of Langya have to wait until night to launch a sneak attack?
impossible!
Yu Qi's strength at night was extremely terrifying, and the number of wronged ghosts gathered under his command reached five or six thousand!
Chen Jiuchen was wondering when an inconspicuous rock not far away suddenly turned into an old man with a white beard.
Wang Zhiji couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Hahahaha, Chen Jiu, you are still a little naive to play dirty tricks on me."
Who is this guy and how did he follow us?
Chen Jiu was secretly shocked, but on the surface he remained calm and said, "Who are you? Are you looking for death?"
Wang Zhiji smiled and said, "Looking for death? I am Wang Zhiji, the ancestor of the Wang family. Who do you think is looking for death? Chen Jiu , why don't you surrender? Do you really want me to do it?"
This guy is the only Earth Immortal King in the Wang family!
Chen Jiu couldn't help but narrow his eyes when he heard that. No matter how calm he was, his heart couldn't help but beat nervously.
He was not sure he could defeat the Earth Immortal. If this guy had come a few days later and advanced to the realm of Demon Immortal, he might still be able to fight him.
What should we do now?
Chen Jiu suddenly made a move, pushed the dog away, and yelled, "Ah, go find Lao Ding."
At this moment, his Tiger God true body was already eighty or ninety feet tall, and his speed was astonishingly fast. Even if he couldn't defeat this old guy, he should have no problem escaping.
The only thing he was worried about was Jiaona and the others on the mountain top not far away.
Unexpectedly, Wang Zhiji raised his hand slightly and said with a smile: "Do you think the gods are fake? You still want to run away from me? Turn the ground into a prison!"
With a "whoosh", Chen Jiu, Jiaona, and Xu Gou who had jumped to the side were all covered by the huge dungeon that suddenly appeared.
This dungeon is probably several miles in radius!
Chen Jiu slapped the wall of the dungeon without thinking.
With a loud "bang", he created a huge hole in the huge dungeon .
Without any hesitation, he turned into a shadow, rushed out of the dungeon, and ran towards the Wei River with all his strength.
At this time, the only way to have a chance of winning is to join up with Yu Qi.
Upon seeing this, Wang Zhiji snorted coldly, and instantly turned into a giant stone bat, flying into the sky.
This guy runs so fast!
Wang Zhiji was surprised when he saw Chen Jiu's speed. In the blink of an eye, Chen Jiu actually ran several miles away.
He was stunned for a moment, and Chen Jiu ran several miles away.
This speed is too terrifying. He can't catch up at all. It's useless even if he turns into a stone bat!
We can’t let this kid run away again!
Wang Zhiji made a decision immediately and shouted, "Dharma-like Heaven and Earth!"
With a "buzz" sound, another world appeared faintly in the sky. In a flash, the real body of the running Tiger God was covered by this world.
When Chen Jiu saw this, his heart skipped a beat. It was over. He was taken into the Immortal Palace by this guy!
what to do?
With a "whoosh", a huge figure appeared in the sky about a hundred feet in front of him.
Wang Zhiji immediately retracted his bat body, put his hands behind his back, stood upright in the air, and murmured like a teacher: "Cultivating immortals is going against the will of heaven. Once you embark on this path, you are doomed to encounter many disasters.
This catastrophe not only includes the heavenly tribulation of cultivating to become a god or even achieving enlightenment and ascending to heaven, but also various kinds of major tribulations.
Only if you can get through it can you continue to practice. If you can't, then you are doomed to die.
Chen Jiu, you are doomed today. If you can hand over your skills honestly, I might be able to spare your life.
If you continue to be stubborn and resist, I will destroy you physically and spiritually, and you will never be able to be reborn!"
