Journey to the West: Starting by taking Sun Wukong as my disciple!-Chapter 100 Macaque King, Verdant Light Dual-Yi Lamp

Chapter 100: Chapter 100 Macaque King, Verdant Light Dual-Yi Lamp

"I’ll deal with you later!"

Li Jing’s face turned solemn, "Follow me to subdue the demon."

For him, as long as Nezha went to battle on his behalf to subdue demons, he didn’t care what he did on regular days.

The implied meaning of his words was that if Nezha helped him, the punishment would be waived.

"Got it, such a nuisance." Nezha pretended to complain, which was typical of him.

Just as long as no one discovered his female disguise, anything was fine.

The two did not delay, but went directly to gather troops.

"This demon is no ordinary foe; it also possesses the cultivation of a Taiyi Golden Immortal. You must eradicate it to assert the might of our Heavenly Court!" Li Jing instructed.

He had already suffered a setback in eradicating the Demon Monkey and did not want to stumble twice, lest the entire Heavenly Court look down on him.

"I know." Nezha sneered inwardly, what prestige?

In his view, it was just for Li Jing’s own vanity and gains, but Nezha didn’t expose him.

He certainly didn’t want to end up playing around in the Exquisite Tower for a few days.

"Is it inside here?" Nezha looked down at the high mountain and dense forest below with a languid expression.

Once he got the exact location, Nezha leaped down heading straight for the cave abode and summoned the golden brick, striking the main gate fiercely.

Bang!

The gate, as expected, was smashed to pieces instantly, and the few small demons guarding the gate were caught off guard and met with instant death.

But there were survivors who scrambled desperately into the depths of the cave abode.

While running, they shouted in panic, "It’s terrible, terrible, someone is attacking us!"

The leading Demon King, who was reveling in wine and pleasure, heard this and flew into a rage; which miscreant dared to provoke him!

"Minions, fetch my armor!" the Demon King bellowed furiously, his hairy face hideously twisted.

"You’re about to die, what do you need armor for!" a brash voice called out.

The Demon King looked towards the source of the voice, and there stood a figure in a lotus flower skirt, wielding a fire-tipped spear, with a clear and handsome face, and red lips and white teeth.

Just by standing there, there was an air of pride about him.

The Demon King bared his teeth in a smile and said sinisterly, "I was wondering who it was, turns out it’s the renowned Prince Nezha."

Hearing the Demon King’s mocking tone, Nezha did not immediately respond.

Staring intently at the Demon King, he said coldly, "All those people outside, did you kill them?"

"So what if I did?" the Demon King was completely unfazed.

So what?

Nezha felt a surge of anger rising in his heart and said through clenched teeth, "You commit great evil by harming the Human Race; ruthless and inhumane. I am ordered to eradicate you, so surrender now!"

On his way there, he had seen human limbs scattered everywhere, a scene most bloody and cruel.

"What, humans can eat monkeys, but we can’t eat humans?"

The Demon King was unconcerned and chuckled sardonically, "Nezha, you don’t really think I’m afraid of you just because I call you ’Third Prince’, do you?"

"No matter what, you’re just a Taiyi Golden Immortal!"

"And among Taiyi Golden Immortals, there are plenty who can kill you!"

Killing intent flooded the Demon King’s eyes, "For instance, me, the Macaque King!"

"Then let’s give it a try!" Nezha was also filled with a killing resolve.

This demon, must be killed!

A palpable tension formed between the man and the demon, causing the lesser demons around them to scatter and flee, many running straight out of the cave.

"Heavenly King, aren’t we going to support the Third Prince?" The Immortal of Colossal Spirit, a long-time follower by Li Jing’s side, spoke with some concern.

During the previous battle, since the Immortal of Colossal Spirit was on watch duty, he hadn’t joined the army. Furthermore, Li Jing believed victory could be easily achieved, so he hadn’t planned to share the merit with him.

However, if the victory wasn’t easy, then it would have been pointless for the Immortal of Colossal Spirit to go.

"Support what? As things stand, the situation inside the cave is unclear. What if this is a feigned weakness and there’s an ambush? Would we not then be disregarding the lives of these thirty thousand celestial soldiers and generals?" Li Jing said gravely, his analysis sound and logical.

The Immortal of Colossal Spirit scratched his head, somewhat puzzled.

In past defeats or rash advances due to overzealousness, he hadn’t seen such concern for celestial soldiers and generals. Besides, these were soldiers and generals who had signed the Investiture of the Gods; even if they died, they could come back to life.

So why was Heavenly King Li suddenly so concerned about his soldiers and officers?

But he wasn’t foolish enough to voice these thoughts. With the Third Prince’s wide reach of divine skills, there shouldn’t be any problem dealing with the demons.

Meanwhile, inside the cave, Nazha and the Macaque King were fighting intensely.

One wielded a spear, the other a staff.

After several exchanges, neither had the upper hand.

"Unexpectedly, your martial skills are quite impressive," Nezha said in his heart in amazement, and harrumphed aloud.

His martial skills had been honed during the God-Sealing Tribulation. How could this Demon King, at the same level as him, possess such exquisite skills?

It seemed that every monkey he encountered was not an easy adversary!

"You needn’t worry about that, Third Prince. Better worry if you can make it out alive," the Macaque King sneered, intensifying his offensive.

"Courting death!" Anger flared in Nezha’s heart. Not only did this monkey demon massacre humans, but he was also repeatedly threatening to kill him. Did he really think Nezha was such an easy target?

With a light shout, Nezha transformed into a figure with three heads and six arms, and each of the six hands held a magical treasure, all of them striking simultaneously at the Macaque King.

If one were to talk about which disciple from the third generation of the Chan School was the most favored, it would definitely be Nezha.

Among The Three Pure Ones, Yuqing Yuanshi was the most protective.

And among the twelve Golden Immortals, none exemplified this to the fullest extent like Taiyi Taoist.

Basically, Nezha’s collection of magical treasures was roughly equivalent to the family wealth of Taiyi Taoist during the God-Sealing Era.

In an instant, the Macaque King fell into a disadvantage.

"Damn it, don’t think you’re the only one with magical treasures!" The Macaque King’s face chilled.

He leaped back and pulled out a lamp.

The lamp was emerald green, and the flame inside shared the same color as the body of the lamp, splitting into two strands.

"Capture!" With a thunderous shout from the Macaque King, the lamp suddenly generated a tremendous sucking force.

Nezha, caught off guard, was directly sucked into the lamp.

"Humph, now that you’re in my Verdant Light Dual-Yi Lamp, don’t think about coming out alive," the Macaque King said, smugly waving the magical treasure in his hand.

This was a great opportunity he had come across; the Verdant Light Dual-Yi Lamp was originally an object of the East Emperor’s bedroom, an Innate Spirit Treasure.

When the East Emperor Taiyi met his end, this lamp also drifted through the Three Realms, and by chance ended up in the hands of the Macaque King.

The lamp had endless uses; once inside, a single thought could become myriad, unsettling the mind and spirit.

Moreover, when the holder entered, the Verdant Light Dual-Yi Lamp could transform spiritual energy into Dual-Yi Qi, greatly enhancing one’s cultivation speed.

Although he had only managed to break through one of the treasure’s seals after so many years, was it not a piece of cake to deal with Nezha, who was merely in the late stage of the Golden Immortal of Taiyi?

"Aren’t you a being of Physical Body Sanctification? I’ll let your body perish and your soul return to the list!" the Macaque King sneered, filled with self-satisfaction.

"Men, guard the cave entrance tightly. Once this Nezha is turned to dense water, it will surely scare the Heavenly Court into retreat without a fight. Tonight, we shall hold a human flesh banquet to celebrate!"

The Macaque King was giving orders to his subordinates, while Nezha, who had entered the Verdant Light Dual-Yi Lamp, was utterly astonished.

Beneath his feet was a ground made of emerald green crystal jade, seamlessly connected and incredibly smooth, with no visible end in the distance.

In the middle, a two-foot-high pedestal made of jade had two wicks on it, burning into two intertwining flames that seemed to entwine, with the fire beads gently floating up.
