Chapter 93: Hunting Immortals
Chen Jiu went out to fight again. Early in the morning, he recruited thousands of bat soldiers and asked Fu Qingfeng to carry him and Luo Li straight to the north.
However, this time he did not hide in the clouds with the bat soldiers and pretend to be heavenly soldiers and generals. He directly ordered Fu Qingfeng to carry them to the camp behind the Qinglian Sect's talisman formation.
At this time, Luo Yong was sitting alone in the general's tent eating meat and drinking soup.
In front of him was a large pot about ten feet in diameter. It didn't look as satisfying as the one that was twenty feet in diameter, but that didn't affect his enjoyment of the meal.
He was still eating and drinking when Chen Jiu and Luo Li came in together.
When he saw the two people coming in, he stood up with a look of surprise and said, "Ali, Ajiu, why are you here?"
This art of refining the soul is truly not affected by external objects. After all, the person who walked in was his own sister. If it was a guard or a messenger or something, he probably would just sit there and not move at all.
Chen Jiu smiled slightly and said, "Brother, how have things been these days?"
Luo Yong said naively: "How can there be any problem? The talisman array is two or three hundred miles long. The Zhao family dare not advance at all. They are still staying in the old place. Anyway, they broke some of the talisman array during the day, and we repaired it at night. That's it, nothing happened."
Well, it looks like the Imperial Court and the Zhao family are really going to fight each other, and neither of them wants to make the first move.
Chen Jiu pulled Luo Li to sit down and drink a bowl of soup, then continued to ask: "Is their leader still the Great Spiritual Officer?"
Luo Yong nodded without hesitation and said, "Yes, if the Earth Immortals came, the brothers below would definitely ask me to go over and take charge. If they didn't call me, then there must be no Earth Immortal leading a team to destroy the talisman formation."
I don't know if the Zhao family's earthly immortals are too lazy or too cautious and they don't come out. This is a bit troublesome.
Chen Jiu nodded slightly, then pulled Luo Li up and said, "Brother, you eat first, I'll take Ali to see."
After saying that, he pulled Luo Li out of the general's tent, and ordered Fu Qingfeng to carry them and fly towards the Zhao camp along the top of the jungle.
Of course, he would not go straight to the Zhao camp. When he was about 20 to 30 miles away from the Zhao camp, as soon as his spiritual sense detected the Zhao team destroying the talisman formation, he ordered Fu Qingfeng to find a hilltop to land on.
Luo Li was confused. Why did he stop when he hadn't seen anything yet?
She couldn't help but ask, "Ah Jiu, aren't we going to take a look ahead?"
Chen Jiu shook his head slightly and said, "No, we can't let them know that I'm here."
Luo Li couldn't help but ask again: "Then why are we here?"
Chen Jiu smiled mysteriously and said, "Ah Li, what do you say, we should lure the Zhao family's earthly immortals here one by one and kill them?"
ah!
Luo Li couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Aren't we on the defensive?"
It depends on the situation. In the past, I never thought that I could open the Yindu Immortal Palace, let alone collect all the magical herbs and medicines from the new domain into the Immortal Palace. Naturally, I would not rush to do it. But it is different now.
Chen Jiu still smiled mysteriously and said, "If we don't attack, we will just let you fall into the trap."
After saying that, he directly pulled Luo Li and Fu Qingfeng into his Yindu Immortal Palace.
Things were different in his immortal palace at the moment. All the monkey monsters were assigned to monkey groups. In addition to taking Blood Soul Pills and practicing, they could also teach their tribe human language, and even find female monkeys to play with. They lived a very fulfilling life.
As for ordinary monkeys, those who have learned human language or have slightly opened their spiritual intelligence will gather in the temple every day to worship their ancestors devoutly, and then gather in the square to receive teachings from Sun Wukong or the old monkey demon.
At this moment, Chen Jiu no longer breeds monsters every day. He only shows up to breed monsters on the first and fifteenth day of every lunar month. This saves a lot of trouble, and it also lets all the monkeys understand that it is rare to have a chance to become an immortal.
In short, his immortal palace has become much quieter. All the monkey demons and monkeys have long been accustomed to the life here, and everything seems so well organized.
Chen Jiu didn't care about the monkey demons and monkeys. He directly brought Luo Li and Fu Qingfeng to the hall behind the statue.
This was originally the place he reserved for himself to practice martial arts and rest, but now the three brothers Sun Wukong, Zhu Tianpeng and Niu Dali were cooking meat and drinking soup in it, enjoying the meal very much.
With the help of the Blood Soul Pill, Zhu Tianpeng and Niu Dali have also advanced to the realm of demon king. After their transformation, they also have animal heads and human bodies, and look even stronger than Sun Wukong.
When the three saw the master coming, they hurriedly stood up and bowed, and diligently brought stools, bowls and chopsticks, and scooped soup and picked up meat, very attentively.
Chen Jiu nodded slightly, ate another piece of meat, and then said solemnly: "Great Sage, I have something for you to do."
Sun Dasheng immediately said without hesitation: "Master, please give me your orders."
Chen Jiu gave detailed instructions: "Take a hundred monkey demons with you to practice with those Zhao clan members who destroyed the talisman formation every day. Fight them hard, and don't worry about life or death. Just beat them until they run away in panic."
Sun Dasheng nodded without hesitation and said, "Disciple understands."
Chen Jiu waved his hand again, motioning him to come closer and explained in detail.
Luo Li, Zhu Tianpeng and others didn't hear clearly what Chen Jiu said. They only knew that after hearing what he said, Sun Wukong's face changed, and he seemed to be frightened.
The Monkey King was really scared because Chen Jiu asked him to seduce the Zhao family's earthly immortal!
He has only been advanced to the realm of demon king not long ago, how could he be a match for an earthly immortal?
However, his expression changed slightly, as he still had to listen to his master.
In the jungle outside, a thin-faced middle-aged man was leading dozens of Zhao's disciples to search for talismans nailed to the trees. They were not clearing very fast, and it seemed that it would take some time to search for each tree.
The people of the Green Lotus Sect were getting more and more excessive. Many of the talismans were nailed in by carefully prying open the bark, and then they glued the bark back on after nailing it in. This made them have to search up and down every tree several times, which was really annoying.
They were cleaning and cursing at the same time, howling in anger, and the cursing never stopped in the jungle.
"Stop! Who let you in? Get out!"
A loud roar suddenly came from not far in front of them, and a monkey demon about six or seven feet tall fell from the sky, holding a copper rod as thick as a thigh in its hand.
This loud shout really scared the Zhao family members. However, when they saw clearly that it was a monkey demon, the astonishment on their faces was instantly replaced by anger.
How dare a monkey demon be so arrogant in front of them?
Even if you are the Monkey King, so what? We are specialized in exorcising demons, and there are dozens of us.
The thin-faced middle-aged man used his spiritual sense to carefully scan the area and confirmed that it was only a monkey demon queen. He snorted coldly and waved his hand, saying, "Go!"
Dozens of Zhao family members immediately rushed forward, and a burst of wood spiritual energy surged wildly. The monkey demon was immediately submerged by the overgrown weeds, vines and bushes.
This was because talismans were nailed to the trees around the monkey demon, and they could not move it. Otherwise, the monkey demon would have been beaten to death by a bunch of giant tree men.
Sun Wukong was no pushover. This little trick couldn't do anything to him. He picked up the copper rod and swept it. The overgrown weeds, vines and bushes were instantly turned into pieces.
Then he raised his hand, plucked a handful of hair from the back of his neck, and blew it gently to his mouth.
Suddenly, hundreds of monkey monsters two or three meters tall appeared in front of the Zhao family members.
These monkey demons didn't say a word, picked up the copper rods as thick as their arms, grabbed the Zhao family members and started beating them up.
In an instant, the jungle was filled with flying sticks, flying weeds, breaking vines, and scattering bushes. The Zhao family disciples rushed into the woods full of talisman arrays, and could only use these to barely resist.
If it was a tree man transformed from a towering tree thicker than the waist, these monkey monsters might not be able to defeat it, but they could easily smash some weeds, vines and bushes. It would be useless even if the Zhao family disciples madly poured wood spiritual energy into it.
The thin-faced middle-aged man was dumbfounded.
What kind of magical power is this?
A monkey demon king who is five or six meters tall can actually transform into hundreds of monkey demon kings who are two or three meters tall in an instant!
It seems that the Sun Wukong in "Journey to the West" is not so powerful, right?
The monkey that was transformed can only defeat the lice on the Bull Demon King's body.
While he was stunned, he heard screams in the jungle. Many of the Zhao family members had been beaten black and blue, and some even had their arms and legs broken.
Sun Wukong also rushed forward without hesitation and hit him on the head with a stick.
He quickly raised his hand and turned the big tree beside him that had just had the talisman pulled out into a tree man, and raised his hand to block it.
It's a pity that it was useless. The tree was only four or five meters high, not even as long as the copper rod in Sun Wukong's hand. Moreover, the copper rod in Sun Wukong's hand was refined by the Honghuang Divine Cauldron. Although it was not as hard as the divine weapon, it was very hard.
With a loud "bang", the tree man was immediately knocked into pieces.
The speed of this monkey demon king was too fast, and his strength was terrifying. Ordinary magical powers could not defeat him at all. The middle-aged man with a thin face could only take advantage of this gap to escape frantically.
"Retreat quickly."
His voice hadn't faded away yet, but he had already disappeared.
It's a pity that those Zhao disciples are still being beaten up by a two or three meter tall monkey demon in a jungle full of talismans.
Although these people were able to rely on the endless wood spiritual energy to reconnect their broken arms and legs, they were no match for the monkey demon who swung the copper rod and smashed them wildly. Many of them fell to the ground with broken bones and limbs, and some were even smashed into meat paste!
In the end, only a dozen or so people with good skills retreated frantically using the vines to pull them back, and finally escaped from the talisman formation and fled back in a mess.
It seemed that the Zhao family's earthly immortals were unaware of their own power. The next day, they actually sent several great spiritual officials with hundreds of their disciples to rush into the jungle filled with talisman arrays, in an attempt to deal with Sun Wukong.
As a result, Sun Wukong "blew" out more than two hundred monkey demon kings two or three meters tall in one breath. Not only did they beat them so hard that they fled for their lives in fear, but he also beat to death fifty or sixty of the Zhao family's disciples.
At this point, the Zhao family's earthly immortals finally couldn't sit still anymore.
