Chapter 448: The monkey sits on the tree, disaster comes from the sky
Chapter 448: The monkey sits on the tree, disaster comes from the sky
With a flash of light, the four monkeys who had caused trouble in the Lion Country disappeared on the spot.
Demon King Peng's spiritual consciousness spread out, instantly covering an area of a thousand miles, but he could not sense any breath of the four monkeys.
This shows that the earth escape technique performed by King Yu Monkey is extraordinary and is a very high-level earth escape technique.
Demon King Peng did not participate in the Conferred God Tribulation, but his two elder brothers, Lingya Immortal and Qiushou Immortal, were eyewitnesses of that war. In the past, they had told Demon King Peng about the magical powers of many talented people from the Chan and Jie sects.
I heard from the two elder brothers that the masters of earth-walking and earth-escaping techniques have been practiced to the highest level. On the side of the Orthodox Sect, the best masters are Ju Liusun and Tu Xingsun, while on the side of the Demon Sect, the best masters are Shang general Zhang Kui.
But even for these masters of the earth escape technique, their speed is only about 1,500 miles a day.
The monkey's magical power of escaping underground was from another dimension entirely. It disappeared without a trace in an instant. Even with his mind scanning at the initial stage of the Golden Immortal realm, he had no idea where it had gone.
Being targeted by such an opponent is really scary!
The Demon King Peng couldn't help but feel fortunate that he had strong strategic determination and did not act impulsively. Otherwise, he would have formed a mortal feud with the demon monkey, and the Lion Country would have no peace ever. He would have repeatedly sneaked in and assassinated them until the last little demon died.
But this does not mean that Demon King Peng was afraid. Looking around at the mess left in Lion City by the monkeys, his bird face was distorted by his anger.
The monsters in the city saw the four monkeys disappear from afar, and then they bravely crawled out from their hiding places and gathered around the Demon King Peng in fear.
"My king, you are finally back. Please avenge our dead and wounded brothers!"
When some monsters saw the Demon King Peng, they knelt before him and made accusations in great grief and anger.
"What is going on? Didn't King Yuxiong come to form an alliance with us? Why did he suddenly take such a vicious action and kill my fellow demons?"
"Is it possible that the Yuxiong King is also a great saint of the demon race, and his ambition is so inflated that he wants to step on my Lion Camel Country to become famous in the demon world?"
"Before those monkeys went crazy, thunder was heard from the direction of the Lion Cave. It sounded like the mountain protection formation was activated. Could it be that the king set an ambush in the Lion Cave and failed to kill King Yuxiong, so King Yuxiong's relatives and followers turned against him?"
Even now, more monsters still had no clue and didn't understand what had happened to cause this disaster.
"Shut up!" Demon King Peng roared, and all the monsters were silent.
With a gloomy face, Peng Demon King ordered: "Pass the order, quickly send someone to ring the bronze bell in the palace's Buddhist temple, and ring it ninety-nine eighty-one times!"
"My Lord, are you going to summon the Great Lord and the Second Lord?"
An eagle demon in the Mahayana realm said in amazement: "Before the two great saints left, they told us that the Bodhisattvas had not been in seclusion for meditation in the past few years, so it was inconvenient for them to leave without permission..."
"You must be tired of living, right? How dare you disobey me... Never mind, stop talking nonsense and do it quickly!"
Demon King Peng had murderous intent in his eyes, and he was planning to slap the blind eagle monster to death to vent his anger. But when he raised his hand, he remembered that almost all the immortal monsters in the country were killed or injured. The Mahayana monsters were the backbone of the country, so they could not be killed indiscriminately.
Then he just cursed angrily and slowly put down his raised hand.
"King Yuxiong, I, King Peng, will never forgive you. After I meet up with the two elder brothers, I will immediately rush to Qionglai Mountain and make you pay a heavy price!"
The Demon King Peng roared to the sky, and his sharp and hoarse roar echoed among the mountains and ridges of the 800-mile Lion Camel Ridge.
The authentic Yu Monkey King, who was picking fairy fruits on a fairy tree far away in Penglai Mountain, suddenly felt a chill for no reason and couldn't help shivering.
...The Hunyuan Banner's ability to shrink the earth can allow it to travel at high speed along the earth's veins, covering thousands of miles in an instant. It is countless times more powerful than Tuxingsun and Zhang Kui's master-level earth-walking skills. It is an acquired treasure refined by a saint himself, and is equivalent to a unique skill passed down by a saint himself.
The only drawback is that it requires kryptonian life.
Fortunately, Wen Rui has now been deified, with a lifespan of at least 120,000 years. The salary he receives on a daily basis is made up of elixirs that can extend his life by thousands of years.
With his official position and status, he was qualified to sit at the table and eat peaches at the Peach Banquet. Eating a medium-sized peach could extend his life by more than 100,000 years.
The tens of thousands of years of life wasted by fleeing thousands of miles away is nothing to him now.
However, there is a saying that goes, "When riding a bicycle to a bar, you should save where you can and spend where you can."
Even if one has a long lifespan, one cannot waste it carelessly. The destination of the earth vein teleportation chosen by Wen Rui is the Huanghua Mountain border fortress of the Chamber of Commerce guarded by the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord.
The Huanghua Mountain Fortress is only more than 3,000 miles away from the Lion Camel Ridge. The fortress has been equipped with a spiritual awareness shielding array, as well as a golden light anti-aircraft focusing mirror array personally controlled by the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, making it quite reliable in security.
Appearing in the fortress courtyard, Longji, Nezha and Taibai Jinxing immediately transformed back into their original forms.
The silver tortoise shell split open, revealing the human-pig version of Wen Rui hiding inside. Golden silk threads weaved into the outline of meridians, bones and flesh grew rapidly, golden mist condensed, and nanorobots gathered together to form the emperor's purple immortal robe.
Soon, the Jietian Emperor, who was completely intact, regained his divine majesty, without any trace of the monkey in his body.
Princess Longji quickly stepped forward and asked, "Where are my two sisters? Didn't you say in your spiritual communication that you had rescued them?"
Wen Rui was too lazy to answer. He raised his hand to push her away. A portal opened on his chest and two stunning fairies in red and yellow robes walked out slowly.
Long Ji's heart finally settled down. Out of the reserve of a fairy, she suppressed the corners of her mouth and said with a straight face, "Jiangyun, Yueying, you have caused a big disaster this time! Come with me back to the Golden Palace of Yaochi and apologize to the Queen Mother."
The two fairies who walked out of the portal were still a little confused. Only after hearing Princess Longji's questioning did they come to their senses and lowered their heads in guilt.
"Sister Longji, we sisters know we were wrong."
Fairy Jiangyun said hesitantly, "But now is not the time for us to return to Yaochi Golden Palace. There are still five sisters in danger. If anything happens to them, I... I will simply end my life. I will not be able to go back to see the queen."
The red and yellow robes that the two fairies are wearing now are both high-quality imitations of the monkey version. Wen Rui is in charge of the Heavenly Clothing Bureau and has a lot of experience in the production of fairy feather robes and robes. It is not difficult to imitate a fake with similar material and function.
However, the high-imitation version of Xiayi does not have the passive magical power of the original soul stinging needle. This magical power is the unique skill of the Queen Mother and has never been included in the collection of drawings of the Tianyi Bureau.
"Ah, silly sister..."
After the battle between Lion Country and Peng Demon King, Princess Longji lost all her arrogance and dared not underestimate the demon kings of the world anymore. She sighed and said, "It's easier said than done. It took a lot of effort just to save you two. We all had to turn into monkeys..."
"Time is running out, saving lives is important, don't waste your breath talking about unimportant things!"
Wen Rui interrupted immediately: "Tell me quickly, where did the other fairies go after they escaped from you? Provide clues quickly so that I can start the next investigation immediately!"
The reason why he asked so anxiously was not because Wen Ruizhen was very serious about the task of finding fairies, but because he was afraid that Princess Longji would let the cat out of the bag and the two fairy ladies would know that the big perverted monkey who had taken advantage of them was actually himself.
