Journey to the West: Demon Emperor: Beginning as a Little Toad
Chapter 406 Tiangang Earth Evil
Chapter 406 Tiangang Earth Evil
In the Southern Continent, there is the Liyang Guiyu, which is 600 miles away.
On one side, the devilish fog was overwhelming, and on the other side, the divine light was majestic. They were tit-for-tat and neither side would give in.
“The gods of the Tianting Doubu.”
“Thirty-six Heavenly Generals, Seventy-two Earthly Demon Generals…”
“Tian Kuixing…Song Jiang…”
In a cave in Liyang Guiyu, Xiao Chen saw the 108 generals of Tiangang and Disha who were sent by the Heavenly Court to fight against the Black Tiger Demon Lord, and he couldn’t help but think of their reincarnations.
Those were the 108 generals of Liangshan Marsh during the Song Dynasty.
In the Water Margin world, the mythological color is actually very strong, and various mythological elements run through the entire book from beginning to end.
Gongsun Sheng’s master “Master Luo” is revered as a “land immortal”. He possesses the art of longevity and flying, can predict destiny, summon the Yellow Turban Warriors, and once used a gourd to transform himself into a human form.
For example, Master Luo once let Gongsun Sheng and Dai Zong stand on a handkerchief and then “carried them to fly”. He also “summoned the Yellow Turban strongmen” and ordered the Yellow Turban strongmen to escort Li Kui on the handkerchief, rushing all the way to the Jizhou Prefecture Hall.
Gongsun Sheng is proficient in the Five Thunders and the Eight Formations. He can call the wind and rain, break illusions and demon formations, and can also summon and remotely control weapons.
Gao Lian is a demon who can summon magic. He holds a bronze beast-gathering plate and strikes the sword three times, which can summon ferocious creatures such as “wolves, tigers, leopards, monsters, poisonous insects” to attack the enemy. Gao Lian can also fly into the clouds and escape without a trace.
Bao Daoyi was a master who controlled the Xuantian Hunyuan Sword. He killed people with the flying sword and controlled the sword a hundred steps away to take their lives. Everyone who heard about it was afraid. He once used the flying sword to cut off Wu Song’s left arm, and Wu Song almost lost his life.
Kou Wei, also known as the “Poison Flame Ghost King”, was a general under Wang Qing. He could spit out evil fire from his mouth, but was later defeated by Qiao Daoqing using the “Samadhi Divine Water” method.
Qiao Daoqing is a magician who is good at illusion. He can summon yellow sand and black fog, and can use illusion to turn a plain into an ocean. Qiao Daoqing can also summon golden-armored gods to capture Lu Zhishen, Wu Song and others one by one. Afterwards, Qiao Daoqing summons hail to attack the two generals, the divine fire and the holy water, making them embarrassed.
……
Yes, Wu Song’s left arm was not actually cut off by Fang La.
It was Bao Daoyi who used the “flying sword technique” and summoned the Xuantian Hunyuan sword, which flew down from the sky and hit Wu Song’s left arm.
……
On the battlefield of Water Margin, generals fought against each other, mostly relying on flying swords, riding on clouds and mist, calling the wind and rain, or summoning golden-armored gods, or spitting out evil fire, or mobilizing Samadhi divine water, or summoning hail, or calling on jackals, tigers, leopards, monsters and poisonous insects to help in the battle.
There are also many people who fight by using magic to directly shake the gods in the sky.
For example, a black gas rolled out from above the head of Zheng Mojun. In the middle of the black gas, a golden-armored god appeared, holding a magic pestle in his hand, striking down from the sky.
Song Jiang’s side was in a disadvantageous situation. Seeing this, the Demon King Fan Rui cast a spell to summon the gods for help. A god, riding a black dragon and holding an iron hammer, flew into the air and fought directly with the golden-armored god on top of the Demon King Zheng.
……
The fake world of Water Margin: pure cold weapon combat.
The real world of Water Margin: gods fighting each other, and heaven shaking people.
……
“That should be the leader of the Earthly Evil Stars, the Earthly Kuixing Star…”
The Monkey King pointed at a divine general and said.
I saw that he was of medium build, often holding a feather fan in his hand. He was neither tall nor short, just right, with the elegance of a scholar and the agility of a military commander.
“Divine Machine Military Strategist, Zhu Wu…”
His message flashed through Xiao Chen’s mind.
“That should be the Heavenly Injury Star.”
The Monkey King pointed at a mighty and majestic general and introduced him.
“The star of injury, the traveler Wu Song…”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen looked carefully.
The man had a majestic figure and a handsome appearance. His eyes shot out cold stars, and his eyebrows were as dark as painted. His chest was broad and he had an air of majesty that no one could match. His bones and muscles were strong, like a Pixiu shaking the ground and sitting on the throne.
The fierce and evil temperament is really: “The man-eating Rakshasa must bow, and the guardian Vajra will frown!”
This divine general was Wu Song’s previous life.
Among the stars of the Big Dipper, there is Tianshang Star, one of the thirty-six Tiangang Stars!
At this time, another divine general came into Xiao Chen’s sight.
This divine general had a leopard head with round eyes, a swallow chin and a tiger beard. He wore a green gauze turban with corners, a single green silk battle robe with round flowers, black boots with melon-shaped toes, and held a 10-foot-long snake spear in his hand. He looked extraordinary and heroic, with an imposing manner.
This divine general was none other than the previous life of “Leopard Head Lin Chong”, also known as Tianxiong Star.
……
The 600-li vast Liyang Guiyu was filled with howling winds and shrouded in clouds and mist, making it look like a strange and unpredictable underworld.
The Black Tiger Demon Lord, as the overlord of this place, had already sensed something unusual. His eyes were like torches, flashing with a bloodthirsty light. His body shook, and he let out a tiger roar that shook the heavens and the earth:
“Where are the four warriors: tiger, leopard, jackal and wolf?”
“Where are the four ghost kings Chi, Mei, Wu, and Liang?”
“Follow me into battle!”
Following the order from the Black Tiger Demon Lord, his four mighty demon generals, the tiger, leopard, jackal and wolf, responded by rushing out, each of them with a sturdy stature and majestic aura.
At the same time, ten thousand demon soldiers followed closely behind, with a mighty force and great momentum.
At the same time, the four great ghosts Chi, Mei, Wang and Liang also appeared grimly. They led 30,000 ghosts, who were shadowy and terrifying, out of the cave to fight.
Inside the Ghost Valley, evil spirits are rising to the sky, the ghostly atmosphere is solemn, and the atmosphere is filled with fighting spirit.
A thrilling battle is about to begin.
And all of this had already fallen into Xiao Chen’s eyes.
Xiao Chen stared at everything in front of him, thinking to himself:
“It seems that the weapons of the demon soldiers under the command of the Black Tiger Demon Lord are all the weapons of my Four Powers Zhai…”
“I have ended up like this.”
In fact, Xiao Chen had already noticed this.
Most of the weapons and magic treasures under the command of the Black Tiger Demon Lord were actually made by Silizhai.
However, this is actually normal.
Think about him, King Golden Horn, who is now famous in the demon world and has become a major arms supplier in the demon world.
His Silizhai branches are spread all over the place, and demons and monsters often come here to purchase weapons in order to increase their strength.
All these monsters and demons who come to purchase are his customers.
Xiao Chen knew in his heart that the key to business is to make money through harmony.
When doing business, everyone who comes is a guest and no one can resist money.
Naturally, his Silizhai would welcome everyone who came. No matter which demon or monster it was, as long as they were willing to trade, they would be treated equally and warmly.
It is also because of this that many weapons used by monsters in the mountains are now produced by Silizhai.
……
In the 600-li Liyang Guiyu, the wind was howling, the clouds and fog were swirling, and the two armies were facing each other with swords drawn.
The Black Tiger Demon Lord, dressed in a black royal robe, stood proudly in front of the formation. Behind him were ten thousand demon soldiers and thirty thousand ghost soldiers, surging like a tide, with a menacing momentum.
Some of them were burly, while others had ferocious faces, and all of them showed a warlike look, waiting for the Demon Lord’s order to charge into battle and stain the battlefield with blood.
There is no other reason, just eat the emperor’s salary and be loyal to the emperor’s orders.
Report your favor on the golden platform, and bring Yulong to die for the king.
……
Kang Jinxingjun led 5,000 heavenly soldiers from the Eastern Azure Dragon’s Seven Stars, deployed their troops, and faced the Black Tiger Demon Jun from a distance.
The heavenly soldiers were clad in dazzling divine armor and held magical weapons in their hands. Their formation was strict and orderly, and their momentum was magnificent.
At this time, Tiankuixing and Dikuixing joined hands to attack, leading 3,600 heavenly soldiers from the Tiangang star headquarters and 7,200 heavenly soldiers from the Disha star headquarters, and set up the “Tiangang Disha Formation” in the 600-li Liyang Guiyu.
This “Tian Gang Di Sha Formation” is unpredictable and has infinite power. It surrounds the entire Guiyu Valley, as airtight as an iron barrel, making it impossible for the Black Tiger Demon Lord to escape.
In front of the two armies, the situation was changing rapidly and the atmosphere was heavy.
In Song Jiang’s previous life, Tiankuixing, he was dressed in a blood-red official robe, strode out, and stood between the two armies with a righteous face, like a judge descended from heaven.
Tian Kuixing stared at the Black Tiger Demon Lord opposite him with a sharp gaze, and righteously rebuked him:
“Yaohu, do you know what a sin you have committed?”
“You allowed your demon soldiers to wreak havoc on the world, killing innocent lives, causing the people to become homeless and suffering. You deserve to be killed for this crime!”
“I have come here in compliance with the order of the Great Celestial Lord to teach you to surrender and submit to the Heavenly Court as soon as possible!”
“Don’t hurt your life!”
However, upon hearing this, the Black Tiger Demon Lord burst into laughter, his voice shaking the whole area and shattering the dark clouds in the sky.
His eyes were wide open, blazing with anger, he stared at Tian Kuixing and sneered:
“Humph, you running dog of Heaven, do you know the hunters in Qingjiang County? They carry hawks and dogs, and hold swords and guns, and go up the mountain to hunt tigers many times?”
“They hunted down my father, my mother, my brother, my younger brother, and my younger sister… causing my family to be destroyed!”
“I will not be a tiger until I avenge this!” The Black Tiger Demon Lord’s voice was filled with grief and anger:
“They eat tiger meat with rice, use tiger blood for medicine, and even teach young tigers to jump through hoops for fun, or let adult tigers fight each other for fun…”
“Why doesn’t the Heaven Court care about such behavior?”
“The tiger was born between heaven and earth, and should worship heaven and earth, respect parents, and take care of brothers. This is the law of nature.”
“I avenge my father, mother, and brother. This is the cycle of cause and effect. What crime have I committed?”
At this point, the Black Tiger Demon Lord sneered, his tone full of ridicule and questioning:
“If you really believe in justice, why don’t you stop hunters from killing tigers?”
“You come here to question me about my guilt?”
“Is it that the justice of heaven is only directed at us demons, while turning a blind eye to the slaughter of the human race?”
“This……”
Upon hearing this, Tiankuixing was speechless for a moment and was unable to refute the questioning of the Black Tiger Demon Lord.
He was stunned for a moment, looking a little embarrassed, and had to change his words:
“Yaohu, for your own revenge, you are planning to send your brothers to their deaths one after another. Isn’t that too selfish?”
“If you can let go of your hatred and submit to the Heavenly Court, you may still have a chance to survive.”
However, when the Black Tiger Demon Lord heard this, he laughed out loud, his voice shaking the sky, and he sneered at Tiankuixing’s words.
The Black Tiger Demon Lord raised his knife, pointed at Tian Kui Xing, and laughed:
“Then General, please come down and don’t bother so many brothers.”
“Let’s practice it separately.”
“How about you take my beautiful head?”
Tian Kuixing heard this and smiled awkwardly:
“A battle between two armies is no joke.”
After saying this, Tian Kuixing, in order to save face, drew out the sword from his waist with a swish sound, the sword flashed like lightning, pointed it directly at the Black Tiger Demon Lord, and angrily scolded him:
“Demon Tiger, if you really want to surrender, then lead your demon soldiers and ghost soldiers to lay down their weapons and surrender.”
“Otherwise, my heavenly soldiers will flatten your Liyang Ghost Valley, leaving you and other evildoers with nowhere to hide!”
“The justice of heaven cannot be questioned or challenged!”
At this time.
Kangjinxingjun glanced at Tiankuixing indifferently, as if he was disgusted by the fact that he talked too much.
Then, she slowly took out a scroll of the Jade Emperor’s edict that shone with brilliant golden light from her sleeve, gently unfolded it, and read out in a clear and solemn voice:
“Now there is a black tiger in the lower world that has become a spirit, devouring living beings and causing chaos in the area.”
“This monster is a disaster to the world. His crimes are so serious that they cannot be forgiven by heaven.”
“I have come here today in compliance with the Jade Emperor’s order to subdue this monster, to rectify the way of heaven, and to calm the people’s hearts.”
“No need to persuade him to surrender. Just escort him to the Demon Slaying Platform and behead him in public to serve as a warning to others and to rectify the law of nature!”
“If the rest of the demons dare to resist the heavenly soldiers or attempt to obstruct us, they will be killed without mercy and will not be tolerated!”
After Kang Jinxingjun finished reading, he put the decree away and put it back into his sleeve.
Tiankuixing looked solemn when he heard this.
Then, he led the Heavenly Killing Star, Heavenly Lone Star, Heavenly Injury Star, Heavenly Hero Star… and the other thirty-six Heavenly Gang Stars, and bowed together and said:
“I will follow the command of the Great Heavenly Venerable!”
At the same time, Di Kui Star also commanded Di Yong Star, Di An Star, Di Zei Star, Di Mo Star… the seventy-two Di Sha Stars said respectfully in unison:
“I will follow the command of the Great Heavenly Venerable!”
……
In the Tiangang and Disha camp.
“This time we are following the emperor’s orders to fight the monster and enforce justice on behalf of Heaven. This is truly an act of righteousness!”
“Demons are rampant and causing trouble for the world. As the stars of the Heavenly Gang, we should stand up and eliminate violence and protect the good.”
After shouting the slogan.
Tian Kui Star’s eyes were like torches, scanning the most powerful Tian Gang Stars among the Tian Gang Stars, Tian Yong Star, Tian Xiong Star, Tian Meng Star, Tian Gu Star, Tian Shang Star…
Tian Kuixing’s tone revealed expectation and encouragement, and he said:
“In this operation to fight against monsters, we, the Tiangang Constellation, are the main force.”
“This is a good opportunity for us to show our prowess in public and earn some money.”
“Which brother is willing to be the vanguard, to kill the generals and make merit, to spread the power of our Tiangang Disha?”
Tian Kuixing’s words were full of encouragement and temptation, and he continued:
“I will show my merits to the Queen Mother Dou Mu!”
The Thirty-Six Heavenly Generals are actually not a monolithic entity, and each has its own factions.
Among them, Tianshaxing is a die-hard fan of Tiankuixing.
See Tian Kuixing speak.
Seeing Tian Kuixing’s speech, Tian Shaxing could no longer suppress his fighting spirit. He picked up two Xuanhua axes with both hands and strode out of the battle formation. His voice was as loud as a bell, and he said:
“Brother, I want to go!”
“Let’s set a good example for the brothers!”
Seeing this, Tiankuixing shook his head secretly, then nodded.
He was well aware of the strength of the Killer Star.
But since Tianshaxing took the initiative to invite him to fight, he couldn’t refuse him for fear of weakening the morale of the army.
then.
Tian Kuixing nodded and said earnestly:
“Brother, when we go, we must win and not lose.”
“You represent the honor and reputation of our Tiangang Disha, you must not bring down our prestige…”
When Tianshaxing heard this, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes.
He understood what Tiankuixing meant.
This time, there are only Tiansha stars who died in battle, no Tiansha stars who were defeated!
Tianshaxing said firmly:
“Don’t worry, brother. I’ll just do whatever I want to him!”
“Kill these bird monsters.”
“I will never look back from now on. I will definitely slay the demons and gain military merit for my Tian Gang Di Sha!”
Say it.
Tianshaxing’s body moved suddenly, like a black whirlwind, rushing out with endless murderous aura.
He swung two axes in rotation, and as he swung them, a murderous black light was emitted that was a hundred feet long.
The black light was like a meat grinder, tearing through the diffuse ghost fog and heading straight for the Black Tiger Demon Lord’s formation, with an aggressive and domineering momentum.
In front of the Black Tiger Demon Lord’s formation, the Sky Killer shouted loudly:
“Who is the Black Tiger Demon Lord? Come out and defend yourself!”
The Black Tiger Demon Lord’s camp was already on high alert, with all the demon and ghost soldiers rubbing their hands, ready for the battle.
At this time.
General Red Leopard, one of the four great generals: Tiger, Leopard, Jackal and Wolf, stepped forward.
He is the “Red-Eyed Ghost Leopard”, an unusual species among leopards. He possesses the power to devour souls and ghosts and has extraordinary strength.
He had red hair like flames, a leopard head with round eyes, a flame-patterned battle robe on his body, heavy black iron armor, a face as red as charcoal, eyes as red as blood, and in his hand he was tightly holding a “Nine-Ring Ghost-Head Knife” forged by “Si Li Zhai”. The knife was shining and exuding a chilling aura.
General Chibao strode out of the battle formation to fight against Tianshaxing, and snorted coldly:
“General, who are you? Please come up and register yourself.”
“I will not kill nameless people with my Red Leopard sword.”
When Tianshaxing heard that General Chibao dared to call him “the nameless hairy god”, he was immediately furious.
He cursed loudly:
“Red Charcoal Head! You filthy devil, why don’t you open your dog eyes and see that these two axes of my grandfather are specially made for chopping people like you!”
“Today, I will use your leopard head to sacrifice to my name, Heavenly Killer Star!”
Before he finished speaking, Tianshaxing’s double axes suddenly swung out, and a hundred-foot-long black light cut through the sky like a whirlwind. The ground then cracked into ten deep grooves and went straight towards General Chibao.
Upon seeing this, General Chibao sneered and a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.
He responded without fear:
“The Heavenly Gang and the Earthly Demons are nothing more than running dogs of the Heavenly Court!”
“Today, watch how I will extract your soul and refine it into my Nine-Ring Sword!”
