Chapter 1022: Chapter 1019: The Contest Chapter 1022: Chapter 1019: The Contest “Daoist friend Wen, what do you think of the power of my 99 Soul-Scattering Gourd? That year, during the War of Gods-Sealing, my master favored others over . He neither bestowed upon the powerful Jade Pure Immortal Law nor graced with Magical Immortal Artifacts. Thus, I suffered defeat after defeat in the Gods-Sealing War, and despite being one of the revered Twelve Golden Immortals, I couldn’t even overco the likes of Ma Sui and Lu Yue. I was even captured by Zhao Gongming with the Dragon-binding Rope and hung in front of both armies’ formations, completely disgraced. Now that I possess this 99 Soul-Scattering Gourd, let’s see who dares to underestimate !” The Yellow Dragon Daoist laughed wildly as his hands quickly ford seals.
Red clouds sward out, engulfing not only Puhua Tianseng but also the Heavenly Soldiers behind him in their onslaught.
But just then, a flash of red light streaked behind the Yellow Dragon Daoist, and a Fiery Red Long Spear materialized out of thin air, aiming straight for his back.
This attack was exceedingly sudden. He only sensed it when it was three feet away from his back and, without ti to turn around, he flung his sleeve backward.
His Yellow Robe was also a treasured artifact, and as the sleeve t the wind, it billowed and wrapped around the Fiery Red Long Spear.
But suddenly, large swaths of purple flas erupted from the long spear. With a hissing sound, the sleeve was torn apart, turning into shreds of fabric, even as the spear itself was flung away.
A figure appeared out of the Void – it was Nezha.
Distracted by Nezha, the sweeping red clouds halted montarily, giving Puhua Tianseng the chance to quickly lead his Heavenly Soldiers in retreat, escaping the attack’s range.
Puhua Tianseng did not transport his Heavenly Soldiers deep into the Demon Clan Army as Yang Jian had done. He rely clashed with them directly, advancing and retreating with much more ease.
“Uncle Yellow Dragon, disciple Nezha pays his respects.” Nezha’s expression was complex as he stood with one hand raised in salute to the Yellow Dragon Daoist.
“Nezha, you are unhard, that’s good. That year in the War of Gods-Sealing, I was defeated by Lu Yue, and it was thanks to your intervention that I was able to escape with my life. My title as your uncle who was saved by his disciple echoed throughout the Three Realms. Now that we et again, let the world see once more whether this uncle truly falls short of his disciple!” The Yellow Dragon Daoist’s eyes flashed with a vengeful light as he abandoned Puhua Tianseng and pounced toward Nezha.
The red clouds in the sky reversed their course and rolled toward Nezha.
Although the Yellow Dragon Daoist had successfully survived the Heaven and Earth Calamity, his strength was feeble, and he had not been able to establish any significant achievents during the great battle; instead, he was defeated multiple tis by the enemy. After the calamity, he gained very little rit.
He had secluded himself in closed-door cultivation over the years but made little progress. Moreover, due to the lack of powerful Magical Treasures, he was looked down upon by other Golden Immortals of the Teachings. Although he appeared untroubled on the surface, resentnt had long been brewing within him.
With the rebirth of Chiyou and the onset of another Heaven and Earth Calamity, the Yellow Dragon Daoist saw the Heavenly Court’s downfall and the collapse of the Teachings. Tempted by several treasured items from the Demon Clan, he finally defected to them.
Nezha had already been lurking nearby, listening to the conversation between the Yellow Dragon Daoist and Puhua Tianseng. He sighed inwardly.
For now, he preferred not to speak further. His Fire-tipped Spear spewed out a jet of purple true fire, torching the engulfing red clouds.
At the sa ti, his Universal Garnt and Qiankun Circle shot out from his body, aiming left and right at the real Yellow Dragon.
“Well t!” bellowed the real Yellow Dragon with a shout, stirring the 99 Soul-Scattering Gourd with one hand while flicking his finger with the other.
A purple and a yellow light shot out, one a small purple hamr engraved with robust thunder and lightning runes, the other a yellow Bamboo Tube about two feet long, each confronting the Universal Garnt and Qiankun Circle.
With two loud “booms,” purple electric light and yellow mysterious glow streaked past, and both the Universal Garnt and Qiankun Circle were repelled by the blow. However, the purple hamr and yellow Bamboo Tube remained unhard and continued to strike at Nezha.
“The Electric Hamr and the Fish Drum! Be careful, Third Prince; they are the body-protecting Magical Treasures of Jade Wander Palace’s Shangqing Saint, with incredible power!” Puhua Tianseng flew over, throwing his Male and Female Double Whips, transforming them into a gold and a silver mighty thunderbolt that struck the Electric Hamr and the Fish Drum, knocking them away with difficulty.
Startled by the warning, Nezha hastily called back the Universal Garnt and Qiankun Circle to join Puhua Tianseng in the fight against the Yellow Dragon Daoist.
“Wen Zhong, to think you have so discernnt. Now that I wield several treasured items, let’s see how the two of you fare against !” laughed the real Yellow Dragon heartily, unafraid of engaging in battle against the two.
…
On the other side, where the Bull Demon King was, there were no formidable enemies to stop him, and with the Banana Fan in his hand, one wave could send tens of thousands of demons flying. Although the Nine-Headed Insect and the Yellow Dragon Immortal had sent several powerful True Immortal demons, they were no match for the Banana Fan and were blown away early on.
His great army advanced victoriously, steadily pushing forward, and in a very short ti, they arrived at the base of Chang’an City.
The Bull Demon King took out his Mixed Iron Staff, transford into an enormous demon body a thousand feet tall, and struck the huge black protective cover outside the city with his staff.
With a thunderous boom!
A big hole was blasted into the massive protective cover, and a section of the City Wall several hundred feet long also collapsed.
“Charge in!” The Bull Demon King raised his arm and shouted, as a tide of furious demons surged into the city behind him.
Next to Chang’an City in the void, a pale white shadow flickered, and an extrely blurred figure appeared—it was Shen Luo.
He glanced around and quickly grasped the situation outside the city, especially the Bull Demon King’s achievents, and felt a surge of delight in his heart.
With such a large-scale battle, the attention of the demons inside the city would certainly be largely drawn away, facilitating his clandestine actions.
Shen Luo ford a hand seal, the Map of Mountains and Rivers wrapped around him once more, and he disappeared into thin air. He flew through the breach torn by the Bull Demon King in the protective cover, then headed deeper into the city, quickly covering a considerable distance.
But at that mont, a mass of ash-colored clouds suddenly shot out from the deep areas inside the city, hurtling toward the outside at an incredibly fast speed.
Huge Demon Qi burst forth from the clouds, filling the void and whipping up waves of black wind.
Shen Luo’s eyebrows twitched, and he stopped in his tracks.
The demon within the ash clouds was formidable, having reached the Taiyi Realm, and was not to be underestimated. He decided to wait until it passed before continuing forward.
However, as the ash cloud passed over Shen Luo’s head, a surprised exclamation suddenly ca from within, and it abruptly halted.
Two beams of blood light shot out from the cloud, looking towards the spot where Shen Luo was concealed.
“Who’s lurking about so sneakily?” ca a sharp, cold rebuke from the cloud. Before the words even finished, a giant black stick ca crashing down at him rcilessly.
Before the stick even arrived, an overwhelming force bore down, causing Shen Luo’s body to sink.
“To think it could see through the Map of Mountains and Rivers!” His expression changed slightly, mainly because he had just acquired this treasure and had not yet fully refined it.
Without ti to think, Shen Luo lifted his Sea Suppressing Iron Rod into the void to intercept.
A black and a gold rod shadow collided, emitting an earth-shattering boom, shattering the nearby void like broken mirror glass.
Shen Luo was forced to retreat two steps, revealing his form.
“The Sea Suppressing Iron Rod! You must be Shen Luo! I’ve heard you’re Sun Wukong’s successor, and old Sun has always wanted to have a good match with you. Take this!” With an excited shout, the Six-eared Macaque flew out from the ash clouds, wielding his Wandering Iron Rod to create three shadowy strikes targeting Shen Luo’s chest and arms.
The extrely sharp force of the staff ripped three black cracks in the void.
Facing such a fierce attack, a moonlight glamour flickered beneath Shen Luo’s feet, and his figure transford into two afterimages. Though it didn’t look fast, he easily dodged the blow with grace.
