Chapter 746: Kill 1 enemy, damage 8 yourself
Chapter 746 Kill One Thousand Enemies, Lose Eight Hundred of Your Own
The blood demon is born, and even gods and Buddhas are afraid of him!
It is said that the Blood Sea Patriarch had won a great victory in the Battle of Mount Tai, and there was no opponent in the mortal world to stop him. He should have led the demon army to sweep across the country and establish a demon kingdom on earth.
But after this glorious victory of the demons, nothing happened next.
A huge number of demonic mosquitoes flew in all directions, trying to hunt for blood to feed the insect swarm. As a result, all the hunting teams flew thousands of miles and searched the sky and the earth, but they didn't find any humans, or even an animal larger than a mouse.
The blood river flowing out from the rift valley of Mount Tai had just displayed its might for a short time before it gradually dried up under the combined effects of the dry climate and scorching sun.
Looking down from the sky, it looks like the blood from the scars on the earth has formed a scab.
The blood that filled the deep valley of Mount Tai was also losing water, gradually becoming as thick as mud, and the water level began to drop continuously.
The surface of the blood pool in the deep valley has solidified into a shell, and the demon mosquitoes bred in the blood have to break through the hard shell to get out.
The newly emerged demon mosquitoes are covered with thick blood plasma, which will slowly harden like solidified cement.
In order to prevent the blood in the deep valley of Mount Tai from solidifying into a hard blood rock due to evaporation, the swarm of demon mosquitoes had to take action immediately. They collected the fragments of the Five Elements Mountain that had previously blocked the valley entrance, piled them up and pieced them together again, and built a light-blocking rock roof above the deep valley.
The gods and Buddhas acted as fiercely as tigers, but they only resisted for less than a day.
Wen Rui's strategy of clearing the countryside firmly bound the army of demon mosquitoes within a hundred miles of Mount Tai. At least in a short period of time, they could not expand rapidly and occupy the mortal world.
Draining the water from all lakes and seas has caused the environment in the mortal world to be worse than that in the earthly world. At least in the earthly world there is no strong sunlight shining all the time during the day, and the evaporation rate of the blood sea and blood river is not that fast.
Dehydration has absorbed most humans and medium and large animals, making it impossible for the Demon Mosquitoes to obtain any supply resources in the mortal world. Once they leave the blood supply base in the deep valley of Mount Tai, they will fall into a state of hunger, thirst and weakness within three days, lose their ability to move within five days, and die of dehydration under the scorching sun within seven days.
The method of digging a blood canal supply line in the earthly realm is completely impractical in the mortal world. The blood river cannot flow within a hundred miles before it solidifies into a blood scab under the scorching sun.
The reason why the Blood River dried up is, on the one hand, the evaporation effect of the sunlight, and on the other hand, the extremely yang attribute of the sunlight offsets the extremely yin energy of the water in the sea of blood, breaking the metaphysical and evil properties of the blood water, making it the same as ordinary blood, no longer mysterious and magical, and it must honestly follow the laws of physics.
The biological nature of mosquitoes is to suck blood, not eat blood. A very important point is that they can only eat liquid substances, and their reproduction must take place in a liquid environment.
Without water, the source of life, the army of demon mosquitoes, even with the help of biochemical technology, would have a hard time in the mortal world.
……
Heavenly Court, Lingxiao Palace.
All the immortals gathered in the hall, but it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
The gods' attention was focused on the scene being detected by the circular light technique projected by the clairvoyance. The projected image was exactly the army of demon mosquitoes that had been hiding in the deep valley of Mount Tai for many days and had already covered the open canyon.
When they had just broken through the Five Elements Mountain, there were dense swarms of mosquitoes flying in the air like columns of smoke. Now there were only a few small mosquitoes, buzzing weakly. Some of them were even stunned by the sun and fell headfirst to the ground.
Seeing this scene, the gods, whose faces were devastated, breathed a sigh of relief.
The style of the Lingxiao Palace at this moment was somewhat different from that of the previous court meetings. In the past, it was so magnificent and the golden light was dazzling. But now, it seemed to have been filtered through the underworld, and the color tone appeared cold and dim.
The change in painting style is not a spiritual feeling from the heart, but an actual change.
The mortal world, especially in the southern continent, has completely cut off the worship of incense and offerings to the gods in heaven. The divine power of the gods has dropped to a lower level, and the golden light is almost no longer emitted from their bodies.
All this was the indirect effect of Wen Rui taking advantage of the battle between the gods and Buddhas and the demon mosquitoes to be distracted and dispatch the Demon Alliance Special Operations Team to dehydrate and pack up all the intelligent creatures in the Southern Continent.
The Jade Emperor frowned and looked around at the immortals in the hall. After a long while, he asked, "Where is Emperor Jie Tian?"
After asking the question for a long time, no one from the group of immortals in the hall answered, as if they were deliberately ignoring the Jade Emperor, and the atmosphere became a little awkward.
"I'm asking you a question!"
The Jade Emperor sensed something was wrong and flew into a rage, shouting, "You returned in defeat, unable to relieve the worries of your king and father, or to relieve the suffering of the Three Realms. Are you still holding a grudge?"
The Jade Emperor stood up suddenly, walked down the steps with a gloomy face, came to the group of immortals, and said with great sorrow: "There are five talented generals in the heaven, including Yang Jian, Huang Tianhua, Nezha, Xiaotian Dog, and Li Jing. Look at these five generals, each of them claims to be the bravest among the three armies, unparalleled in wisdom and strategy, and unruly. Now three of them are seriously injured, and two have fled in battle and are missing. They are defeated, and my heart is broken!"
"Daozu Hongjun handed the Three Realms to me, but it turned out like this. I am deeply distressed. I have sinned against the Three Realms, I am ashamed of Daozu, and I am ashamed of heaven and earth. I wish I could dismiss myself!"
"And you, even though you all stand in the High Heaven Palace in a dignified manner, are you really that clean? I know that some of you are even worse and more incompetent than these five generals!"
“On ordinary days, they all look like immortals, and enjoy all the blessings of immortals. However, when the Three Realms are hit by disasters, they all shrink back, fearing that they will be affected by karma and perish in the disaster!”
"I advise you all to dig out your immortal bones, dry them in the sun, wash them, and tidy them up!"
This impassioned speech was so powerful that it made some gods look ashamed.
"When I first ascended the throne, I thought that the biggest enemy of Heaven was the demon emperor Jun. After the demon clan was defeated by Heaven, I thought that the biggest enemy was the demon king Mara. I joined forces with Tathagata to kill Mara. Jiejiao became a concern for Heaven again. After I took over Jiejiao, the Blood Demon Patriarch became a concern for Heaven again..."
"I am now becoming more and more clear that the trouble that the Heavenly Court is worried about is not outside, but in the court, right here in the Lingxiao Palace!"
Needless to say, the Jade Emperor's righteous words had an unexpectedly good effect. The immortals in the hall bowed their heads and confessed their guilt: "I know my crime..."
But there were also many immortals, especially those from the Jiejiao sect, who secretly rolled their eyes.
"I admit that this great defeat may, probably, possibly be due to my misusing of personnel, but regardless of the result, doesn't Emperor Jie Tian have any responsibility at all?"
The Jade Emperor said angrily: "Every one of his plans is a vicious plan that hurts the enemy by a thousand and hurts himself by eight hundred! Look at this palace that has lost its color. Isn't it because he forcibly implemented the scorched earth strategy without my permission?"
"Without the power of faith and prayer from the mortal world, we have been greatly weakened, and will only become weaker and weaker in the future. How can we regroup and send out troops to kill the demon mosquitoes again?"
