Chapter 618 Tathagata's Robe
"Where does the snow come from?"

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord and the Ventilation Great Sage Monkey King were walking side by side, and the monkey mentioned it casually.

The two originally planned to rescue the Nine-Headed Insect first, and then rescue the Bull Demon King.

The nine-headed insect was imprisoned in the ninth level of the Oil Pan Prison.

Nine bird heads were plunged into the oil pan and fried until their skin was torn, their flesh was rotten, and their bones were crispy and their tendons were burnt.

but.

This nine-headed insect can actually speak.

Especially after discovering that the Monkey King and the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord were coming to help, the Nine-Headed Insect immediately asked them to rush to the Tianhe Water Prison first.

Because the Bull Demon King had been transferred away, he was to be executed immediately.

Moreover, if nothing unexpected happens, the chief officer of this execution is from the Northern Zhenwu Sect.

The Nine-Headed Insect told the two old monsters not to worry about him.

Because it won't be long before he is able to escape on his own.

Logically speaking.

Nine-headed insect.

Why can the nine heads still speak when they are already immersed in the frying pan?

only because.

This bird monster has not nine heads, but ten.

The most important head is buried between the chest cavity.

Nine Phoenixes, Nine-Headed Insect, Ghost Chariot, and Guhuo Bird.

It is often confused in some classics, especially those from Chu.

It’s simply that the public is confused.

It’s because these divine birds and demonic birds all evolved from the lovebirds.

"Its appearance is like a duck, with one wing and one eye, and they can fly only when they are together."

This is recorded in the Shan Hai Jing.

In reality, it is a failed attempt of a bird spirit to evolve into a phoenix.

A fish can leap over the Dragon Gate and become a dragon.

Any ordinary bird can naturally transform into a phoenix through some opportunities.

There are five phoenixes.

Except that the red phoenix was born sacred and noble.

The remaining four.

The young phoenix is ​​also called yellow phoenix, and the young phoenix is ​​also called purple phoenix.

The blue phoenix is ​​called the blue phoenix, and the swan is called the white phoenix.

Generally speaking, any bird that practices cultivation has the potential to achieve the status of a phoenix when the opportunity arises.

of course.

Occasionally there will be failures in the evolutionary process.

After failing, some bird monsters also have adventures and eventually become monsters such as the lovebirds.

If the lovebirds could go one step further.

Then there are differences among the big monsters such as Guhuo Bird, Guiche, Nine-headed Bird, etc.

I won’t go into details.

In short.

The Nine-headed Insect is gifted in spiritual practice and has cultivated a tenth head.

Of course, it has not yet been fully formed and has not grown a neck, so it can only be hidden between the chest and abdomen.

The last one is a bird monster with ten heads.

During the Zhou Dynasty, one of his heads was shot off by the half-saint Zhou Gongdan.

That is to say, in later generations, the famous nine-headed bird, which was praised by everyone in Chu, was called the nine phoenixes in the early years.

Later, because this bird demon specialized in sucking souls, after the Chu State was destroyed, the Jiufeng was hailed as an ominous bird and was even renamed the Nine-headed Bird.

The battle at Jilei Mountain and the near-death experience made Jiu Tou Chong vaguely understand the mystery between life and death.

This is the tenth evolution, and the tenth head grew.

With good fortune, one also gains various new talents and supernatural powers.

Currently, he is only half a step away from becoming a celestial being.

The Nine-Headed Insect had a feeling in his heart that his opportunity was in the Heavenly Prison.

Therefore, he flatly refused the Monkey King and the Hundred-Eyed Demon King and refused to let them take him out.

The Monkey King and the Hundred-eyed Monster came with good intentions to save people, but ended up with nothing good, so they simply ignored the Nine-Headed Insect.

The two of them went to the Tianhe Water Prison together - determined to rescue the Bull Demon King.

The Tianhe Water Prison is different from the normal Eighteen-Layer Sky Prison.

This place was specially built by the Jade Emperor after learning from his failure to kill Sun Wukong.

The purpose is to use the domineering power of the Tianhe water to disperse the bones of immortals and Buddhas, Vajra bodies, etc.

The Bull Demon King also has some knowledge of the Tiangang and Disha techniques.

To put it simply, it is a variation of the Eight-Nine Mysterious Arts, and it also has some of the indestructible meaning of Vajra.

People call this skill the Seventy-two Transformations of the Earthly Demons, or the Thirty-six Transformations of the Heavenly Stars, or the Great Heavenly Immortal Technique.

In fact, they are all the same skill.

In those days, when the wizards and liches were in great trouble, the saints observed the innate magical powers of the great wizards and researched the art of transformation.

To some extent.

The Xuandu Immortal Body, which Lin Dong has not yet cultivated, is the source of this kind of magic.

Back to the point.

The water of Tianhe River has the property of sinking everything.

Guiding the water of the Milky Way to wash away, no matter how powerful you are, as long as you do not step into the Daluo realm and plan to become a quasi-sage who is reduced to nothing.

Then, there is a possibility that the body of the god may be destroyed.

Even the golden body of Buddha would be washed away if it stayed in the water dungeon of Tianhe for too long.

Once the flood breaks out, its true rigidity will be destroyed.

At that time, under the attack of axes and swords, the Bull Demon King will surely die.

In addition, one thing to mention is...

The building closest to Tianhe Water Prison.

It is also called - the Immortal Execution Platform.

Wei Zheng's soul left his body and he killed a dragon in his dream, which meant he took the Dragon King of Jinghe River to the Execution Platform for execution.

Putting the criminals in Tianhe Water Prison was equivalent to sending them to the execution ground, waiting for three quarters after noon.

The old Jade Emperor really wanted to kill the Bull Demon King, a demon who refused to obey his teachings.

The Hundred-Eyed Monster has deep roots and is familiar with some of the ways in heaven.

Of course you can find a path.

At this moment, he led the Monkey King to the water prison.

At this time, the two of them rolled up two gusts of evil wind and landed beside the water of the Milky Way.

The Monkey King took the gourd hanging from his waist and took a sip of the wine.

He patted the scattered snowflakes on his shoulders and asked in confusion: "In the Milky Way, goose feathers don't float, so how can there be snow?"

"It's probably the murderous aura that condensed, and the heavenly secrets gave rise to the snowflakes."

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord said in a deep voice.

At this moment, the devil was wearing a cloak.

He wore a bamboo hat and looked like a fisherman fishing alone in a cold river.

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord did this not to show off, but because his new precious clothes had such an effect.

This robe can not only defend against most magical attacks.

He can also transfer the magical powers of the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, such as the eyeballs on his chest, to the palm of his hand, the side of his cheek, or other places.

With enough magic power, one can even make hands grow out of one's eyeballs.

This thing naturally makes the magic of the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord seem even more bizarre.

As for the origin of the precious clothes, I will not go into details here.

"It doesn't matter. Most of the power of the Heavenly Palace has been mobilized to Wuliang Mountain, and the other part has been sent to Yaochi. The three monsters in Lion Camel Ridge, hehe, really know how to choose the time. Not many Heavenly Officials can care about us. Even if someone comes, how strong can they be?"

The Monkey King put his hands on the horizontal stick above his shoulders and said with a smile.

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord had a sullen face and didn't say much. He simply said, "Great Sage, we are afraid that after building a mountain for nine feet, we will fail at the last moment. We still have to be careful and cautious."

"rest assured."

The Monkey King glanced at the Hundred-Eyed Monster and patted his chest.

This monkey becomes arrogant when he succeeds.

With the teachings of Tathagata Wu Tian, ​​and the newly acquired treasure, the Yi Qi Water and Fire Stick.

This object was made from the tendons of an ancient celestial demon.

He also followed Yuan Hong for thousands of years.

Yuan Hong uses his magic power and minerals to refine day and night, and he is extremely powerful.

The Monkey King held the golden cudgel in his hand, believing that he would not lose to Monkey King.

You know, when Sun Wukong had the Dinghai Shenzhen in his hand, he was the envy of others.

At that time, the Monkey King, who was also one of the Seven Great Sages, almost popped his eyes out when he saw the Ruyi Jingu Bang, which could grow big or small and weighed 108,000 kilograms.

Rumble, the sound of water gradually becomes louder.

The two monsters were getting closer and closer to the Tianhe Water Prison.

Clouds hang over the sky.

The drums began to sound.

Amid the rumbling drumbeats, thunder filled the sky and rushed towards the Monkey King.

It was the God of Thunder and the Goddess of Lightning who were high in the clouds, forming a formation and striking out thunder.

Several white clouds, each as big as two or three acres, were densely clustered together.

There were numerous heavenly soldiers and generals perched on it. "How did our whereabouts get exposed? Did something go wrong with that nine-headed monster?"

"Impossible? The Nine-Headed Insect is the prince of the Blood Cult, and can be considered a bridge between Big Brother Niu and the Ghost Mother. If he was targeting the Bull Demon King, he wouldn't need to plan anything under such circumstances, and he could have killed Big Brother Niu hundreds of years ago."

The Monkey King's heart sank, and for a moment he couldn't figure out what had gone wrong.

but.

There was no time for anything else at this moment.

A barrier was cast around.

The noisy drumbeats first expanded, rumbling like thunder.

Then it disappears bit by bit.

As the voice was heard, a mighty blue-purple lightning came like a torrent.

hold head high!
Roar.

The Monkey King roared toward the sky, his body swelled in the wind, and in an instant he turned into a terrifying and violent ape.

The wild lightning stung the eyes of the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord so much that he silently took a step back.

At one end of the Milky Way.

They were all illuminated by the terrifying lightning.

"Am I doing the right thing?"

Such a thought flashed through the mind of the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, but it passed in an instant.

He had no time to think, as his magic power was surging faster than his thoughts.

The blood almost rushed to his palms, and his mind could not accommodate any distracting thoughts at this moment.

He swung his arm forward, and a golden eye appeared in his palm.

The dazzling golden light slashed into the Monkey King's body like a sharp sword.

The intense pain caused the Monkey King to stagger.

Even Master Wukong in his prime could hardly withstand the special skills of the Hundred-Eyed Monster, let alone the Monkey King with a half-bottle of water.

The golden light was like a sword, slashing directly into the body of the Monkey King and breaking one of his arms.

Under the tremendous pain, his soul was damaged and the Monkey King didn't even have the chance to look back.

A large mass of heavenly soldiers and generals, swords and spears towering like mountains and forests, and... a huge flag, came into view.

The Huaguang banner!

Dragon and Phoenix intertwined.

The flag of General Huaguang under the command of Emperor Zhenwu.

Hua Guang is also called the Three-eyed Divine General.

People call him Lord Horse King!
Ma Lingyao.

Marshal Ma.

This is all him.

When Yaochi was breached, Emperor Zhenwu was ordered to protect the safety of the Jade Emperor.

The two divine generals, the Water Turtle and the Fire Snake, powerful beings with the strength of celestial beings, protect the Jade Emperor.

The Great Emperor Zhenwu personally rushed to the South Heaven Gate to hunt down the Demon King Elephant and the Demon King Peng.

The old Jade Emperor also has a strong character.

How can the Great Emperor of the Three Realms be a person with a mild personality?
How to deter the three realms?

Sun Wukong can cause trouble in Heaven.

That is the result of the interests of all parties.

What's more, Sun Wukong has never been in front of the Jade Emperor.

Back then, he only managed to break into the South Gate of Heaven and stayed outside the Tongming Palace.

Behind the Tongming Palace is the Lingxiao Palace.

The Lion Demon King directly made his demon face appear above the Yaochi Lake.

Such a blatant provocation.

How could the Jade Emperor tolerate this?

No matter what the three demons' purpose is, it is likely related to the Bull Demon King.

Therefore, the Jade Emperor directly ordered the secret execution of Bull Demon King, and the executioner was the third-ranked figure under Zhenwu.

General Huaguang - Marshal Ma, Lord Ma.

There is a slight difference between Marshal Ma and the two generals, Turtle and Snake.

Because he was on secondment.

He was originally a member of the staff of the Queen Mother of the West and the guardian of the Douniu Palace.

About this person.

His journey to enlightenment itself has countless legendary stories.

He let go the demons from the 81 states in the south of the Yangtze River, caused havoc in the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea, stole the Dragon King's pearl, smashed the residences of ghosts and gods, subdued the 500 fire crow soldiers of Zhenwu, and so on.

The two most famous events are saving his mother from the underworld and breaking into the North Gate of Heaven.

That's right!

It is Beitianmen.

The Heavenly Gate guarded by the Great Emperor Zhenwu is not the South Heavenly Gate, but the North Heavenly Gate that even Monkey King did not dare to break through.

Because my mother was wrongly convicted.

Marshal Ma believed that the way of heaven was unfair, so he stormed into the Heavenly Palace.

He tried to enter through the North Gate of Heaven, but was stopped by Zhenwu.

Later, in order to mediate the matter.

Plus, I feel his filial piety.

Marshal Ma's old mother was taken to the Douniu Palace by the Queen Mother of the West to enjoy a good life and was also given a priesthood.

The Queen Mother of the West naturally took advantage of the situation and accepted this general.

but……

There are no longer any positions with real power in the Heavenly Court.

Or maybe the Jade Emperor is unwilling to give it.

In the end, it was out of respect for the Queen Mother of the West and the Great Emperor Zhenwu, who appreciated his talent, provided Marshal Ma with a military position to support his practice.

In the heavenly realm, the cultivation of some celestial officials is mainly based on their performance.

Subduing demons and monsters, bringing rain and showing divine power, etc.

The more demons you destroy, the stronger you will become.

This was a new path of cultivation that was originally proposed and successfully opened up by the Great Emperor Zhenwu.

In addition to his own abilities and achievements, the Great Emperor Zhenwu was able to defeat a number of the Four Saints of the North Pole, Taoist celestial beings, and immortals and become the emperor.

It depends on creating a new school and establishing a new heavenly department.

The Great Emperor Zhenwu almost tore off a large piece of flesh from the hands of the Great Emperor Ziwei and the Great Emperor Gou Chen.

It is precisely because of this.

The Great Emperor Zhenwu has become the favorite of the Great Emperor Ziwei.

The Emperor Ziwei was determined to obtain Zhenwu.

Well, by analogy.

To some extent - Cao Cao had the mentality of wanting to bring Liu Bei under his command.

In short, this Huaguang general is extremely powerful.

He himself is also at the peak of True Immortal, with the cultivation level of half-step to Heavenly Immortal, which is enough to be a rival to the Monkey King.

Besides, there is a traitor in the demon team.

The Monkey King was really not on guard against the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord.

After his arm was cut off, endless lightning struck the Monkey King's body.

"Didn't you say it went smoothly?"

At this moment, the Monkey King remembered that before leaving, he sought experience from Buddha Wu Tian.

"Good, there will be no problem with this trip."

Wu Tian said this at that time.

But why is this happening?

The Monkey King was very confused.

How the hell can this be considered smooth sailing?

The Monkey King has only been practicing the Eight-Nine Mysterious Arts for a short time.

Although he had made some achievements, he was still beaten to pieces by the terrifying thunder, and most of his body was numb.

Before General Hua Guang showed up, the Monkey King had already lost half his life.

Before the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord could send out the second ray of golden light.

The Monkey King used the remaining power of the thunder to dive cleanly into the water of the Milky Way.

The monster went straight down along the fast-flowing water, trying to seek a chance of survival.

"Catch him. Don't let the monster get away. The other side of the Tianhe River flows into the Daughter Kingdom of Xiniu Hezhou, the Mother and Child Spring. Don't let this lunatic get away!"

Above the clouds, the general spoke excitedly.

"Yes, I will obey your order."

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord clasped his hands together and bowed slightly.

He summoned up a gust of wind and floated down the river without saying a word.

"Wearing my Tathagata robe, you are qualified to attain Bodhi without any practice. Wearing a strand of this robe can be considered a half-step celestial being. Where to go? To achieve the extinction of the primordial spirit, or to convert to Buddhism? You can choose for yourself."

In prison.

The long-eared old monk in a white robe said with his back to the many-eyed monster whose eyes and heart were pierced by a sharp blade.

that moment.

The majestic Hundred-Eyed Demon King from the lower world, the Taoist priest of Huanghua Temple, shed a tear at the corner of his eye and finally chose to surrender.

"I wear the cassock, and Tathagata follows me! I'm sorry, Brother Niu, I can't help it."

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord said silently in his heart.
