Chapter Eleven: Yang Jian

  But what's even more serious is that Zhenyuanzi has already fallen into a coma.

  I don't know if anyone has discovered that since Tang Sanzang became a saint, Zhenyuanzi hasn't made any moves again. Don't think he's afraid.

  When the demons trapped Tongtian, Zhenyuanzi appeared, and his position was right behind Taishang Laojun. Although Laojun also realized it immediately, it was too late.

  The Eight Trigrams Fire was entwined with the petal-like transformed Huā Duàn, unable to return to his side to defend himself. Furthermore, the six heads of the Tianmó that had been transformed by Huā Duàn disregarded their lives and simultaneously wrapped their bodies and arms around Lǎo Jūn. As a result, Lǎo Jūn could only watch as Zhènyuán Zǐ was transformed into a ginseng fruit tree, with its left hand heavily imprinted on Lǎo Jūn's back.

  Then, the thing that made Lao Jun fearful happened. The left hand that had turned into a tree root slowly stretched from behind Lao Jun's back into his skin, and slowly invaded towards Lao Jun's heart. Although the speed was not fast, it somehow couldn't be stopped.

  It's worth noting that although Lao Jun is not a saint of the combat faction, he has still been a saint for tens of millions of years. Moreover, as the ancestor of alchemy and medicine refinement, his physical body has been tempered by countless heavenly treasures day and night. The strength of his fleshly body is almost comparable to that of the ancient great witch, Water God Gonggong.

  But the roots of this tree, however, could not be stopped at all.

  At the moment of life and death, Lao Jun also made a ruthless decision.

  A person who can even expose their own life-saving treasure will be terrifying when they ruthlessly abandon their life, and perhaps only Zhenyuanzi understands this.

  To outsiders, everything seemed to be going smoothly. The ginseng fruit tree root of Zhenyuan Daxian had already eroded a large part, and it was believed that Taishang Laojun would soon be finished. However, just at this moment, Zhenyuan Daxian let out a miserable cry, his empty right hand formed a palm knife shape, and with one slash...

  The left arm was severed at the shoulder, and even at the break, there were still some scorch marks from the flames.

  Then, Zhenyuanzi fell from the air.

  The remaining crowd thought the attack was over, but no one expected that after the death of the Monkey King, the Bull Demon King, who had been in a daze, suddenly rose up, and his iron club was nowhere to be seen. So what the Bull Demon King held in his hand turned out to be his own bull horn.

  The ox horn is as black as ink, as if even time and space would be dyed by its blackness.

  The already heavily injured Tai Shang Lao Jun did not dodge this attack.

  The pitch-black bull horn was fiercely inserted into Taishang Laojun's heart. At this moment, another strange change occurred!

  A bright, dazzling **emerged from Lao Jun's mouth and completely covered the black bull horn in an instant. The Bull Demon King quickly let go of his hand at the last moment, fortunately, it didn't stick to his hand. However, the bull horn was already ruined.

  At this time, Tongtian Jiaozhu finally broke out of the formation. Therefore, Tongtian saw Taishang Laojun with a huge cow horn inserted in his chest at first glance.

  Then, everyone only felt a sudden collapse of heaven and earth. Afterwards, strips of terrifying black cracks spread out from the space where Tong Tian was located.

  Everyone with eyes knows that Tongtian exploded the Zhuxian array map, so the space can't hold it and collapsed.

  At this moment, Bodhi's old ancestor, who had been silent and unknown from the beginning to now, finally showed his infinite power that was close to a saint.

  Tongtian exploded the Bagua formation to save Taishang Laojun, who was on the verge of death, and blasted half of the space in the 22nd heaven. This terrifying spatial force made everyone feel that disaster was imminent.

  But this rapidly spreading spatial rift was actually suppressed by one person with his own strength. And with the supreme divine power, the space is healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

  This man is Bodhi, the old ancestor who has been hiding his strength. It turns out that Bodhi had not participated in the attack all along, just to use his immense magical power to suppress Tongtian's self-destructive magic treasure at a critical moment.

  Although it was uncertain how Tongtian would behave at first, precautions had to be taken. In case Tongtian went all out and didn't mind self-destructing his magic treasure to fight to the death, while this side wasn't prepared, things could get serious.

  The power of the self-destructing Xian array is great, but it only barely allows Tongtian to fly to Laojun's side and recall all the magical treasures to protect himself in time.

  Tongtian had just defended himself, and the crowd of demons surrounded him again. Although everyone was injured, although Tongtian's injuries were not serious, they still surrounded him without hesitation.

  The battle had been going on for so long that almost everyone present was exhausted. Except for two people!

  One was Erlang Shen Yang Jian, who had been beaten by the Great Sage earlier, and the other was Liu'er Mihou, who came to help Wukong. Although when the Monkey King died, Liu'er Mihou almost took up his staff to avenge him, he still restrained himself.

  The reason is that when Sun Wukong left, the task he entrusted to him was to keep an eye on Erlang Shen Yang Jian. He absolutely cannot let Yang Jian escape and return to Lingxiao Treasure Hall to help Yu Huang. Therefore, in the end, only these two still had most of their magical powers.

  Twenty-two Heavens, one battle, the Heavenly Court has no one left, the Tongtian Sect Master is lightly injured, and three magical artifacts are lost. The Taishang Laojun is seriously injured and dying, losing his original name artifact, the Bagua Furnace, and the Eight Trigrams Fire within the furnace.

  The Monkey King of the Demon Clan was killed, and the Bull Demon King, Zhu Yuanzhang, was severely injured by Lao Jun's poisonous blood and on the verge of death; Tang Sanzang, Jinchi Dapeng, Pengmowang, Shixue Ling Bai Xiang, Jiaomowang, Shimowang, Qing Shi, were all seriously injured; Baigujing, Huang Fengguai, Ziguai, Baiyanmoku's magic was exhausted. The rest of the demon clan's elite forces were all killed, not a single one survived.

  At this time, however, the thoughts of both sides were completely different. Due to Lao Jun's injuries, Tong Tian had no intention of fighting at all, and was only thinking of hurrying back to rescue Tai Shang Lao Jun as soon as possible. As for these people, they could come again at any time in the future to exterminate them.

  However, the demon clan's idea was still to wage war with high morale, intending to join forces again to hold back Tongtian. If they could hold back Tongtian, it was possible that Taishang Laojun would also fall.

  So the situation became subtle. Tongtian couldn't let the demon clan see that he had the idea of retreating, otherwise he would face a desperate attack from all the demons.

  However, the demon clan cannot let Tian Tian see that they are desperate to keep him, otherwise Tian Tian may try his best to escape. A saint who has attained enlightenment for a long time wants to escape, and at this moment, no one thinks that the demon clan can keep him.

  It seems like we're going to be stuck in a stalemate again?

  The answer is affirmative because Erlang Shen has finally taken action.

  And with a full-force burst at once, the target is the heavily injured Ox King.

  Right after Erlang Shen made his move was Liu'er Mihou. However, he was still a little late.

  When Erlang Shen's three-pointed double-edged knife was already inserted into the chest of the Bull Demon King, the Six Ears Macaque's Heaven-supporting Staff barely reached the tip of Erlang Shen's spear.

  Fortunately, thanks to being blocked by Liu'er Mihou, Niu Mo Wang was able to preserve his life.

  This enraged all of the You tribe at once.

  The crowd turned around and glared at him angrily. Just then, Tongtian finally found an opportunity to escape, transforming into a green light and fleeing.

  The people present were furious, and all the means they had prepared to attack Tongtian were poured onto Erlang Shen's body.

  The Second Son of Heaven was indeed valiant, but he was entwined by the Six Eared Macaque and couldn't break free. In the end, he forcibly endured all the attacks. However, just as everyone thought that the Second Son of Heaven would surely be defeated, an unexpected situation arose.

  Indeed, some people have died and can't die again.

  But this person is not Erlang Shen.

  However, it was the heavenly dog of Sirius.

  In the last moment, the loyal dog protected its master and blocked all attacks.

  Everyone fell silent at this sight.

  The Second Master didn't say a word, he simply gently picked up the corpse of the Xiang Tian dog and stood still on the spot, as if waiting for death.

  "This is it," Tang Sanzang finally spoke up: " Erlang Shen, you may leave!" Without further ado, everyone understood the underlying meaning.

  The Second Son hesitated for a moment, clenched his fists, and walked away with a hint of apology and self-reproach in his eyes.

  This battle finally came to an end. Tongtian fled in defeat with the dying Laojun. The rest of the people sat on the spot to recover from their injuries.

  Tang Sanzang held up the dimly lit Transference Flower and looked towards the direction of Ling Xiao Treasure Hall.

  Less than half a moment later, the people present divided into two groups. One group of lightly wounded people rushed to Lingxiao Treasure Hall to assist Sun Wukong, while another group took several seriously injured people back to Huaguo Mountain for treatment.

  At this time, something astonishing happened in Ling Xiao Bao Dian.
