Simultaneous travel: I am proving the great way in the heavens.

Chapter 594 The old man who contends with Dao Ancestor Hongjun! Rahu revived?

The Arhat with the curled head also discovered the background of this King of Bazhou.

As for Golden Arhat, he joined Lion Camel Ridge for a rather short time. Moreover, for him, joining Lion Camel Ridge was merely a stepping stone. His ultimate goal was to escape the fate of being a mount and being driven by others.

Golden Arhat had never taken the monsters of Lion Camel Ridge seriously from beginning to end.

“Brothers, let’s find the King of Bazhou as soon as possible and rescue the Sandalwood Merit Buddha and his disciples,” suggested the Golden Light Arhat.

Sun Wukong nodded hurriedly and said, "That's right, that's right, thank you for your help, three Arhats."

This confirmed the identity of the so-called King of Bazhou.

Given the previous control that the Arhat with the Curly Head and the Arhat with the Yellow Teeth had over the Lion Camel Demon Kingdom, even by simply observing the aura, they could pinpoint the location of the King of Bazhou.

When a great calamity is about to begin and the aura of calamity permeates the air, the secrets of heaven are indeed in chaos. However, when the distance is not far, the method of observing the aura is not affected. Moreover, the former leader of the Tiger Head Demon was a monster that was highly valued by the Green-haired Lion Demon and the Yellow-toothed White Elephant.

Even now that their strength has increased to the level of Bazhou, they are still able to pinpoint the direction of the opponent's demonic aura.

In the blink of an eye, the location of the King of Bazhou was confirmed.

The three Arhats and Sun Wukong headed straight for the King of Bazhou.

Inside the demon clan's camp.

From a leader who was once only slightly stronger than a lackey to the current King of Bazhou, this former Tiger Head leader is a typical example of someone who benefited from a great calamity.

Inside the camp at this moment.

A pair of piercing eyes swept over Tang Sanzang and his disciples.

A playful smile suddenly appeared on the face of the King of Bazhou.

"The Great Tang Monk Tang Sanzang? Marshal Tianpeng Zhu Bajie? I never imagined that you and your disciples would fall into my hands again. And what about Bi Ma Wen?"

The catastrophe involving both humans and transvestites has been ongoing for some time now.

During this process, Tiger Head, who became the King of Bazhou, naturally learned many secrets that were previously unknown to others.

They now have a clearer understanding of the true background of Tang Sanzang and his companions whom they captured back then.

If it weren't for this great calamity, which revealed the background of Tang Sanzang and his companions, the King of Bazhou would probably still be filled with lingering fear.

But now that they're all planning to overthrow the human race's status as the protagonists of the world, they no longer care about Tang Sanzang and the others.

Let alone the Great Sage Equaling Heaven or Marshal Tianpeng, even the Heavenly Court is among the targets of the demon race's conquest.

This is only to be expected.

If the human race has been deprived of its position as the protagonist of heaven and earth, then the Heavenly Court cannot remain indifferent. There are only so many positions in the Three Realms. Since the human race was the protagonist of heaven and earth before, it is natural that the human race occupies the most positions.

If the demon race truly seizes the leading position from the human race, then a purge becomes inevitable.

The Heavenly Court, the Underworld, and even the Western Paradise and Mount Ling will all be their targets.

The Tang Sanzang master and his disciples, their Niwan Palace sealed and bound tightly, glanced at the Queen of Bazhou in bewilderment.

Pigsy jumped suddenly, his ears twitching, and said, "It's you, you damned tiger?"

The King of Bazhou's expression changed, and he sneered, "Times have changed. I never thought you would fall into my hands again. But this time, I don't intend to eat any Tang Monk flesh."

After a slight pause, the King of Bazhou sneered, "The once-holy monk of the Tang Dynasty is now the Buddha of the Western Paradise, isn't he? I wonder if the flesh of the Buddha is more delicious than the flesh of the Tang Monk, hahaha..."

With a loud laugh, the King of Bazhou ordered directly, "Men, quickly go and inform all the kings that the great Tang Dynasty monk Tang Sanzang has now fallen into my hands. I want to invite everyone to a Buddhist banquet, to share with you all the taste of the golden body of Buddha from Mount Ling in the Western Paradise."

"This... how come we've obtained the scriptures, yet we're still going to be eaten?" Pigsy's face changed drastically, and he cried out, "Brother Monkey, you must hide the scriptures and come to save us quickly!"

"Save you?" The King of Bazhou sneered, disdainfully saying, "Even if the Great Sage Equaling Heaven came, he would only be adding a monkey brain to my Buddha-tasting banquet. Take him away!"

It must be admitted that the King of Bazhou, who benefited greatly from the great calamity, is indeed different from what he used to be.

Among these demons and monsters who gathered together to challenge the human race, he was considered to be of some importance.

Enjoying the Buddha's Feast means truly treating Tang Sanzang, the Buddha of Sandalwood Merit, as a rare delicacy.

Even if it can be considered as being on the front lines of the war between humans and demons.

Despite the invitation from the King of Bazhou, many strange and monstrous creatures still managed to arrive.

The three Arhats, Sun Wukong, and others arrived outside the camp where the King of Bazhou was stationed.

From afar, one could see the sky above the camp filled with a mixture of eerie phenomena, including demonic energy, ghostly energy, and so on.

After exchanging a glance, the three Arhats said, "Victorious Fighting Buddha, this time our opponent is not to be underestimated. We are not here to charge into battle, but to save lives. Once we have rescued the Sandalwood Merit Buddha and his disciples, we should get away as soon as possible. Otherwise, if we are surrounded, there may be unforeseen circumstances."

Sun Wukong was now terrified that if he was even a step too late, his master Tang Sanzang and his fellow disciples, including Zhu Bajie, would become food for the monsters.

The suggestion from the three Arhats was exactly what he wanted to hear.

Having reached a consensus, the four men charged headlong into the camp.

With his golden cudgel in hand, Sun Wukong unleashed his full power. His cultivation as a Great Luo Golden Immortal, coupled with his power comparable to a buff, and seemingly limitless endurance, caused a bloodbath as soon as he charged into the camp.

The three Arhats are equally impressive.

The Arhat with the bushy head wielded a large broadsword, wielding it with such skill that it was more powerful than water. As the sword flashed, countless demons were instantly annihilated.

The Yellow-Toothed Arhat, wielding a long spear, disrupted the monsters' formation with his advances and retreats.

The reason why the monsters of Lion Camel Kingdom have such a powerful presence in such a short time is largely thanks to the secrets of the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation taught to them by the Green-haired Lion Demon and the Yellow-toothed White Elephant.

It truly lives up to its reputation as the great formation that the Tongtian Sect Leader once regarded as a means to turn the tide.

Although it may not be stronger than the three great killing formations of the Primordial Era in terms of killing power, it can still be considered a rare and supreme formation in the Three Realms. Even just a little bit of it is enough to wreak havoc on a region.

As the true founders of the Lion Camel Kingdom, how could the Arhat with the Curly Head and the Arhat with the Yellow Teeth not know the terror of the formations they taught?

The two sides worked together, one killing and the other charging into the enemy lines, giving the monsters in the camp absolutely no chance to unite.

The Golden Arhat was no less formidable. With a wave of his golden bell, flames raged, sand and stones flew, and chaos reigned over an area of ​​unknown size.

The three Arhats, along with Sun Wukong, stormed into the camp as if it were empty.

By the time the King of Bazhou and his men finally realized what was happening, they had already rushed to the tent where Tang Sanzang and his disciples were about to be disemboweled and placed on the dining table.

With a single blow, he smashed a monster that was three parts human and seven parts ghost into a pulp, its soul scattered and its body destroyed.

Sun Wukong's gaze was fixed directly on Tang Sanzang and his disciples. "Master, Pigsy."

"Wukong!" Tang Sanzang was overjoyed. Heaven knows how much psychological pressure he was under in the demon's camp.

Pigsy struggled even more excitedly, shouting, "Brother Monkey, please save us!"

Unfortunately, no matter how hard Zhu Bajie struggled, with his Niwan Palace sealed and his whole body tightly bound, he was still unable to break free.

"Don't worry, I'm here." Sun Wukong made a feint, then swept his golden cudgel horizontally, killing or sending flying all the monsters around him. In a flash, he arrived beside Tang Sanzang and his disciples, tearing open the ropes binding them.

This rope is no ordinary object; otherwise, it would be impossible to bind the master and disciple who have already attained enlightenment.

Although it couldn't compare to the genuine Immortal Binding Rope, it still had its own unique uses. However, under Sun Wukong's brute force, this treasure, which would be a prized possession for ordinary small sects, was easily torn to shreds.

Having rescued Tang Sanzang and his disciples, Sun Wukong immediately decided to leave with his master and fellow disciples.

However, Pigsy was clearly not happy about it.

He had already attained enlightenment, but then he was captured by a group of demons. Wasn't all that enlightenment for nothing?
Having just escaped, the predicament of the Niwan Palace has been resolved.

Pigsy couldn't wait to brandish his nine-toothed rake and join the battle.

Amidst the chaos of battle, Sun Wukong called out loudly, "Bajie, do not linger in the fight. Send Master away first."

After giving a brief instruction, Sun Wukong didn't have time to think about anything else. He grabbed Tang Sanzang with one hand, leaped up, and rode his somersault cloud eastward.

The King of Bazhou arrived late.

Upon exiting the tent, they immediately spotted the Arhat with the bushy head and others fighting among the crowd.

His eyes suddenly focused.

At this moment, the King of Bazhou couldn't even care about Tang Sanzang and his disciples.

Indeed, he had already recognized the identities of the Arhat with the curled head, the Arhat with the yellow teeth, and the Arhat with the golden light.

His eyes flickered for a moment, and the King of Bazhou let out a tiger's roar, a terrifying howl that could be clearly heard for thousands of kilometers.

Even an ordinary tiger's roar can travel three kilometers under normal circumstances, let alone a terrifying being like the King of Bazhou, whose cultivation level is not much lower than that of a god.

The terrifying roar of the tiger caused both sides to instantly stop what they were doing.

With a powerful stride, the King of Bazhou headed straight for the Arhat with the bushy head and his companions. From afar, he said, "Three kings, back in Lion Camel Ridge, you didn't get to eat the flesh of the Tang Monk, the holy monk from the Great Tang Dynasty. Do you now intend to taste the flesh of the Tang Monk who has become a Buddha?"

Pigsy, Sandy, and the White Dragon, who did not leave with Sun Wukong, were immediately startled.

They didn't have much contact with the Arhat with the bushy head and others.

Even Sun Wukong didn't recognize the Arhat with the bushy head who had attained enlightenment, let alone them.

The King of Bazhou was a trusted confidant of the three demon kings back in the days of Lion Camel Ridge. Although not particularly strong, he was a rare talent in Lion Camel Ridge known for his practical abilities.

Only after frequent contact, and with the weapons in the hands of the Arhat with the bushy head, could one recognize their identities at a glance.

Upon hearing this, the Arhat with the bushy head held a large, gleaming sword in one hand and said, "I never imagined that a mere mountain lord would achieve such great things today."

"This is all thanks to the kindness of the kings who enlightened us back then," King Bazhou said with a smile.

Enlightenment is a form of forcing growth, and often, beings that undergo enlightenment may never have the opportunity to advance further in their entire lives.

But there are no exceptions.

For example, if one has already reached a critical point during the process of receiving enlightenment, then the enlightenment merely helps to break through that critical point. Such enlightenment, in fact, is an achievement.

And then there's the true form of the King of Bazhou.

Tigers are inherently of pure Yang nature.

Before encountering the Green-haired Lion Demon, the Yellow-toothed White Elephant, and others, the King of Bazhou was already a mountain lord.

Although the mountain god was an uncivilized monster, he was no less powerful than an ordinary mountain deity.

The enlightenment he received from the Arhat with the bushy head was more like a way of spreading his teachings.

"Namo Ruzhen Miaofa Buddha." The Yellow-Toothed Arhat propped his spear on the ground with one hand, raised his palm with the other, and chanted a Buddhist mantra, saying, "Since you have not forgotten our kindness in enlightening you, then let us leave today. On the battlefield in the future, we will each rely on our own abilities."

"King Yellow Teeth, do you think you can come and go as you please in my demon camp?" King Bazhou's tone suddenly turned cold.

Holding his nine-toothed rake, Pigsy blinked and approached Sandy and the White Dragon, saying, "My two junior brothers, I'm a little confused. Where did Brother Monkey get these reinforcements from? Why... why do they seem to know these monsters so well?"

Not to mention Pigsy, even Sandy and the White Dragon were somewhat surprised at this moment.

Indeed, the amount of information revealed in the exchange between the Arhat with the Curly Head and others and the King of Bazhou was truly enormous.

"Second Senior Brother, I think we should be careful. Since these people were invited by Eldest Senior Brother, they must have a way to escape. Let's go find Master and Eldest Senior Brother first." The little white dragon's mind raced with thoughts.

Sha Wujing nodded repeatedly.

Pigsy's eyes darted around, and he said, "Alright, let's go find Brother Monkey and find out where these people came from, so we don't get tricked."

It is unclear whether Pigsy and the others have already planned to flee.

The three Arhats, including Qiu Shou, sensed the killing intent of the King of Bazhou. They exchanged glances and made a decision in an instant.

They came to save people, not to get involved in this catastrophe of humans and demons.

Moreover, the former leader of the Tiger Head Mountain, the King of Bazhou, is like a pig on the wind. He was just a mountain lord, but with the outbreak of the great calamity, he rose to prominence and has achieved such cultivation in a short period of time.

In particular, it was clear to Qiu Shou Luohan and others that the King of Bazhou had long since abandoned his original cultivation method and seemed to have taken some evil path.

It is neither a legitimate sect of Taoism nor a heterodox sect.

In fact, the Arhat with the wavy head and others were unaware that what truly caused Lion Camel Ridge's rapid rise in strength in such a short time was not only the surge in the demon race's fortunes brought about by the great calamity, but also the overall positive impact of this rise.

The numerous demons and monsters that escaped from the depths of hell are also an important factor that cannot be ignored.

These beings, who have been suppressed and sealed deep into hell since the creation of the underworld during the Lich Wars, are all quite extraordinary.

It should be understood that the evil spirits in ordinary hells are not qualified to be personally suppressed by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, Taiyi Jiuku Tianzun, the King of the Underworld, and so on.

These old monsters from the depths of hell each have impressive origins.

Among them were even old monsters who had participated in the Lich Wars and the Heavenly Court of the Demon Race, and quite a few old things who had cultivated the lineage of the Demon Ancestor Rahu, who had competed with the Dao Ancestor Hongjun.
