Chapter 298: Nine Dragons True Qi
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
[The person who appeared before the Demon Sages was naturally the leader of the most powerful world in this world.
[The Jade Emperor of the Heavenly Court and Tathagata of the Buddhist League.
[Of course, there were also a few people following them. They were all late-stage Heavenly Lords.
“Amitabha. Benefactors, there’s no need to make such a big fuss.”
[A clear Buddhist voice resounded through the whole world. Tathagata did not want to fight with the Demon race at this time. The journey to the west was of great importance, so he only wanted to persuade the Demon Sages.
!!
“Your Demon race has just exterminated the Dragon race of the four seas, and now you’re killing your own kind. Your ambitions are like wolves. Do you think that the Heavenly Court won’t dare to kill you?”
[Unlike Tathagata, the Jade Emperor had always regarded the Demon race as his mortal enemy. Especially after the Demon race exterminated the Dragon race of the four seas, the Jade Emperor had long wanted to take action and exterminate the Demon race. Otherwise, once the Demon race digested the gains of the four seas, the Heavenly Court would be in a pa.s.sive position.
“Hmph, this is an internal conflict of my Demon race. Why do you want to interfere?”
[Although he was facing two of the world’s top experts at the same time, Great Sage Demon Bull was still very bold.
[In terms of strength, he was not much different from the Jade Emperor and Tathagata.
[The only thing he lacked was that he hadn’t reached the peak for as long as the two of them. However, it wouldn’t be a big deal if they were to fight.
[Great Sage Demon Bull dared to be so unyielding because they were well prepared. Even if they started a war now, it would only be a small fight at best.
[The fact that Primordial Sage Nine Spirit had not appeared proved that things had not developed in the worst direction.
[The Buddhist League was most concerned about the journey to the west. They didn’t want to interfere with the Demon race’s trouble.
“The Heavenly Court controls the three realms. What can you do if we interfere in the internal affairs of your Demon race?”
[High up in the sky, the Jade Emperor’s voice was very calm. However, his slightly shaking palm had already proved that he was ready to make a move.
“Then I’ll have to ask for your advice, Jade Emperor.”
[Seeing this, Great Sage Demon Bull did not hold back and punched in the direction of the Jade Emperor.
“Demon Bull Fist…”
[This punch carried Great Sage Demon Bull’s full power. It was many times stronger than the punch he had used on the Scorpion Demoness.
[Upon seeing that Great Sage Demon Bull dared to make the first move, the Jade Emperor was instantly enraged. He had been high and mighty for a long time, and he was still not used to being provoked.
“Nine Dragons True Qi,” the Jade Emperor said slowly.
[Then, nine golden threads of Dragon Qi instantly flew out from behind the Jade Emperor. The Dragon Qi seemed to have a mind of its own. It scattered from all directions and collided with the Demon Bull Fist. Then, it easily dissolved the Demon Bull Fist. The nine golden dragons turned and went straight for the Demon Bull.
[Great Sage Demon Bull had never seen a move that could break his Demon Bull Fist so easily.
[Seeing that the nine golden dragons were about to arrive, he immediately became anxious.
[First, he raised his hand and punched out several times. Then, he summoned his weapon and tried to cut the golden dragons.
[However, the golden dragons first swallowed the fist shadow, but under the force of Great Sage Demon Bull’s ax, they were directly split into two. Then, they pa.s.sed through the ax and instantly fused back together.
[A series of explosions rang out, and Great Sage Demon Bull’s body was blown away.
[Although his 9th Protostar Heavenly Lord cultivation had greatly increased his defensive power, it was obvious that Great Sage Demon Bull had still suffered significant injuries from the Jade Emperor’s move.
“Hmph, today, I’m going to kill the demon…”
[As the Jade Emperor’s cold voice faded, nine golden dragons flew out from behind him and headed straight for Great Sage Demon Bull, who had been blasted to the ground.
“Haha, Your Majesty Jade Emperor, there’s no need to be angry. You’re arguing with a junior…”
[At that moment, the voice of Primordial Sage Nine Spirit echoed in the air. The eight Sea-Pacifying Pearls were instantly thrown out by him and collided with the nine golden dragons.
[This time, the situation that Great Sage Demon Bull had faced earlier did not happen.
[The two sides were in a stalemate for a while before they both retreated.
[The Dragon Qi returned to the Jade Emperor’s body, and the eight Sea-Pacifying Pearls flew into the hands of Primordial Sage Nine Spirit.
“Nine-Headed Lion, I don’t care about the internal affairs of the Demon race. However, don’t blame me for exterminating the demons if you dare to provoke the Heavenly Court again.”
[The Jade Emperor knew that it was impossible when he saw Primordial Sage Nine Spirit attack. He left a harsh sentence and turned to leave.
[To be honest, the Jade Emperor actually wanted to see the Demon race deal with their internal demons.
[Over the years, the Heavenly Court had also taken in many demons. For example, there were many Demon Immortals in the 28 Lunar Mansions.
[However, the truly powerful demons of the Demon race were not close to the Heavenly Court. They had all joined the Buddhist League.
[Once Great Sage Demon Bull was determined to get rid of these big demons, he would definitely have to fight with the Buddhist League.
[He was very willing to see the third party benefit from the fight between the sandpiper and the clam.
[As he thought about this, the Jade Emperor turned to look in the direction of the demons and then looked at Tathagata.
[The corners of his mouth couldn’t help but reveal a smile.
‘The Demon race and the Buddhist League will be destroyed by me sooner or later…’
…
[The Heavenly Court’s people left, and the Demon Sages heaved a sigh of relief.
[The situation just now was simply too troublesome. They were truly afraid that they might accidentally clash with the Heavenly Court and the Buddhist League simultaneously.
[If they were to face one faction alone, they would still have the power to fight back. However, if they were to face two factions at the same time, they would only be courting death.
[Moreover, the Demon Sages were not at their peak at this time, and many of them were still injured. Therefore, no matter how one looked at it, the Demon race was at a disadvantage.
[Seeing the Jade Emperor leave, Primordial Sage Nine Spirit also relaxed a lot and turned to speak to Tathagata. “Buddha, are you really going to meddle in the affairs of my Demon race?”
[Tathagata said after a moment of silence as he looked at the severely injured Scorpion Demoness. “The three demons of the Lion Camel Ridge have joined the Buddhist League. If you insist on attacking, I’m afraid we’ll have to fight.”
[Tathagata’s words had clearly given the Demon race a way out.
[That was, as long as you don’t touch the three demons of the Lion Camel Ridge, we, the Buddhist League, will not interfere in the internal affairs of the Demon race.
[However, if you do anything to those three demons, don’t blame us, the Buddhist League, for attacking you with all our might.
[Hearing this, Primordial Sage Nine Spirit also revealed a thoughtful expression.
[Great Sage Demon Bull had already recovered and could not help but shout at Tathagata, “The three demons of the Lion Camel Ridge are the Supreme Sages of the Demon race. Why are they siding with the Buddhist League?”
[The final target of this operation was set to be the three demons of the Lion Camel Ridge.
[The three demons were all powerful. Even if Great Sage Demon Bull went personally, he might not be able to take down the three demons.
[Three Demon Sages had turned to Buddhism. This was something that Great Sage Demon Bull would not allow.
[Therefore, after uniting the Demon Alliance, Great Sage Demon Bull was looking for an opportunity to kill the three demons at once.
[But now, Tathagata had come out personally to protect the three demons. This undoubtedly strengthened Great Sage Demon Bull’s determination to get rid of the three demons of Lion Camel Ridge.]
