Chapter 112: Chapter 110: The Six Great Sages Join Forces to Defeat the Enemy

Yu Rong King, eager to claim the glory for himself and utilizing his Earth Escape skill for swift travel, arrived first at King Bodhisattva’s cave abode. However, to his surprise, King Bodhisattva had undergone some incredible transformation, becoming much more formidable than before, with an exceptionally strong physical body. Yu Rong King suffered greatly and was on the verge of losing his life.

At that moment, the other five Great Sages also arrived and were shocked by the scene before them.

"Furry Monk, stop hurting my brother! Behold the Magical Treasure!" Peng Demon King roared and spat out a pearl.

"The Wind Thunder Pearl?" King Bodhisattva was startled and hastily retreated, using his Magical Treasures to defend himself.

Ox Demon King stepped forward and swung his staff, sending the Sharira flying. His physical body, known to be the strongest and hence named Great Strength Bull Demon King, was no ordinary thing. This very Sharira had just knocked Yu Rong King to the ground, but it couldn’t withstand a single blow from Ox Demon King, showing his immense power.

Yu Rong King breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Brothers, you made it just in time. I thought I was going to be killed by this bird-like creature."

Jiao Demon King cackled and said, "Sixth Brother, you have little skill but dared to steal my kill? Let me avenge you."

Yu Rong King was furious and cursed, "This Mao Bodhisattva has gained some incredible power. Don’t be arrogant; be careful he doesn’t injure you."

KIng Bodhisattva backed away and looked at the six Taoists, asking, "What grudge do I have with you that you must trouble this poor monk so?"

Ox Demon King said, "Hand over the flesh of Wuzhiqi, and you may spare your life!"

KIng Bodhisattva, enraged, declared, "Fine! Since you all press me so harshly, this monk will waste no more words with you! Great Method of Imitating Heaven and Earth!"

A red light flickered in the center of King Bodhisattva’s forehead and soon covered his whole body.

"This is... the essence blood of a powerful being from Ancient Times, everyone be careful!" Macaques King, widely knowledgeable, shouted aloud.

Yu Rong King cursed, "Goodness, so the Mao Bodhisattva has acquired the essence blood of great beings from Ancient Times! Brothers, be cautious!"

The spot of red light in the center of King Bodhisattva’s forehead turned black, spreading over his entire body. His skin also turned black, his head transformed into that of a python, and he was cloaked in black scale armor. A black dragon appeared under his feet, and a green python coiled around his hand. The body of Wuzhiqi merged into him instantly.

"If I ever reach the level of a Daluo Golden Immortal and merge with the flesh of the Water Monkey Great Saint to transform into a Demon God, a hundred of you would be useless against me!" King Bodhisattva roared, his voice shaking heaven and earth.

He instantly grew a thousand zhang tall, breaking the ground surface, and his footstep shattered an entire city, causing the citizens of Great Saint Country to cry and scatter in terror.

Macaques King exclaimed, "This is the visage of Gonggong, he has received the essence blood of the Ancient Demon God Gonggong, no wonder he was capturing experts from the Aquatic Tribes!"

Gonggong, an Ancient Demon God who controlled the Power of Water, went mad during the Middle Ancient wars. Following a fierce battle with Zhurong, who died, Gonggong subsequently crashed into the Heavenly Pillar, causing the sky to collapse, until Goddess Nu Wa sacrificed herself to repair the heavens.

The capital of the Great Saint Country was completely destroyed by this thousand zhang tall Demon God. No wonder his physical form was so formidable— he had been refining the essence blood of Gonggong. The Demon God’s body, being the most powerful in the world and expertly nurtured by the Power of Water, healed exceptionally quickly. If he took it a step further and merged with the flesh of Wuzhiqi to fully become a Demon God, then probably only a Mixed Yuan Golden Immortal could stop him.

Yu Rong King declared, "This bird-like character... let’s take him down together!"

With that, he revealed his true form, transforming into a massive spectral face monkey hundreds of zhang in height, wearing steel knuckles.

Macaques King also transformed into a hundred zhang tall macaque wielding a giant blade.

The Demon Kings shook their heads and revealed their true forms as well; one became a thousand zhang tall white bull, another a several miles long dragon, another a gold-winged Great Peng blocking the sun, and another a shaking lion swallowing Taiyang Acupoint.

KIng Bodhisattva realized, laughed out loud, and said, "So it’s the Demon King of Flower-Fruit Mountain! Today is a good day to capture all of you at once!"

Ox Demon King exhaled white mist from his nostrils, each breath as massive as a pillar. The Demon Kings transformed again, and the people below suffered terribly, blown away by the tremendous force, some unfortunately crushed into a pulp underfoot.

"Brothers, side by side, let’s take him down!" Ox Demon King roared, leading the charge. The thousand zhang tall white bull roared and charged forward, ramming with its horns.

The transformed Demon God from King Bodhisattva also roared back, pressing down with his palms and bellowed furiously, severely clutching the horns of the Ox Demon King and shouted, "Get lost!"

His Demon God body, with muscles coiled like serpents, possessed immense strength. The black dragon beneath him roared continuously, and the python on his arm coiled around Ox Demon King, forcefully flinging him away! The terrifying strength of this Demon God’s body even made the Demon Kings internally doubt themselves.

Yu Rong King lunged forward, landing a punch on the back of the Demon God that made him cry out in pain. The Demon God turned and retaliated with a punch, sending Yu Rong King flying.

Then, Lion Camel King charged forward, pouncing and clawing, immediately causing blood to fly and rain down like a blood shower. The flesh of the Demon God was gruesomely torn open.

King Bodhisattva was furious. This was his first time integrating the Demon God’s essence blood and employing the Great Method of Imitating Heaven and Earth, so his mastery was not yet proficient. Meanwhile, the six Great Demon Kings were adept in both attack and defense, working together seamlessly.

On one side, Macaques King struck King Bodhisattva with his blade, then immediately backed away after the strike. Despite his gigantic form hundreds of feet tall, his movements remained incredibly swift. The python in King Bodhisattva’s hands kept hissing as it coiled towards the charging Ox Demon King, but the Ox Demon King bit the python and shook his head fiercely, ramming into King Bodhisattva and causing him to stagger.

King Bodhisattva internally exclaimed, "This is not good! My body has not yet adapted, while these Demon Kings have already become accustomed to this style of combat."

This was King Bodhisattva’s first transformation into a Demon God’s body, which was enormously large and unfamiliar to him in terms of melee combat. Though this transformation enhanced his strength significantly, it limited his movements, and he could no longer use the Buddhist sect’s divine skills. Moreover, the Demon God’s divine skills required a complete integration with Wuzhiqi’s body to be deployed.

Struggling with this style of close combat, King Bodhisattva was easily torn apart by the combined forces of the six Great Demon Kings. His demon god body, still imperfect, bled profusely. Had he reached the status of Great Luo Golden Immortal and fully merged with Wuzhiqi’s body, perhaps even the six Great Demon Kings together would not match him.

"Die!" Macaques King roared and slashed at King Bodhisattva’s back, cutting a large gash as if a small river had been carved out, spattering black blood.

Jiao Demon King opened his mouth wide, a concentration of Gui Water Power forming inside, and spewed it forth.

"Gui Water Thunder Bomb!"

A loud explosion resonated as the water thunder struck King Bodhisattva’s chest, blasting his flesh into a bloody mess. Despite Gonggong being a water god, the water thunder also contained the power of thunder and lightning.

Peng Demon King swooped down with a shriek, his sky-obscuring wings spreading wide and violently flapping, sending down a golden rain of divine swords formed from his feathers.

"Crackling and popping!"

Small golden swords exploded on the Demon God’s body, black blood flying everywhere, while the python on his back and the black dragon under his feet roared in vain.

"Give your will to me! Let me handle them!" a beguiling voice entered King Bodhisattva’s ears, emanating from the will of the Demon God hidden within the essence blood.

To control this drop of essence blood, one needed to subjugate the residing Demon God’s will, and one’s own will must be strong; otherwise, it could dominate him, turning him into a Demon God who only knows slaughter and destruction.

If this sliver of will were to take over King Bodhisattva, he would become another frenzied Gonggong, devoid of his own thoughts and reduced to a puppet-like existence, with all of Gonggong’s instincts overpowering his original personality.

Currently surrounded and attacked by the six Great Demon Kings, King Bodhisattva was incredibly weak and covered in wounds. Unable to grasp the Demon God’s divine skills, he could only resist physically.

"No!" King Bodhisattva roared as he fended off the fierce divine skills and attacks from the six Great Demon Kings, but his injuries only multiplied.

King Bodhisattva said, "If you push me further, I will fully awaken the will of the Demon God, letting Gonggong’s instinct for slaughter control this demon god body! Then, you will not be a match for him."

Every Demon God is a battle-hardened being, extremely powerful. If Gonggong’s instinct for slaughter truly took over the body, many of his divine skills would be unleashed.

"You have no chance!" Yu Rong King suddenly screamed, throwing down three Exorcism Hoops.

The three Exorcism Hoops transformed into three golden lights, swiftly looping around the Demon God’s neck, chest, and ankles, immobilizing him instantly.

"Attack, kill him!" Ox Demon King shouted, spewing out purple flames, and a vast scatter of Purifying Purple Flame fell upon him.

Peng Demon King also expelled the Wind Thunder Pearl from his mouth, a massive storm of wind and thunder converging into celestial blades and divine swords, slashing fiercely.

King Bodhisattva cried out in alarm, "Great Demon God, I am willing to submit to you! Please, come back to life!"

His will sank, and in that instant, the Demon God’s will seized control.

"Quick! The Demon God’s will is reviving. Summon all divine skills! Strike him down!" Macaques King bellowed.

The six Great Demon Kings unleashed their powerful moves, as massive hand seals, fist seals, and devastating spells rained down.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

All attacks struck the Demon God’s body, instantly blasting it open. King Bodhisattva was just a step too slow and did not wait for the Demon God’s body to fully revive.

Wuzhiqi’s body tumbled out from the torn flesh, and Macaques King grabbed it.
