Chapter 298 Emperor's Sacred Bones, Rakshasa Emperor Weapon
Chapter 298 Emperor's Sacred Bones, Rakshasa Emperor Weapon
Outside the training ground, the Rakshasa army, having learned from its previous experience, did not immediately invade.
The Rakshasa Blood Mother's body was surrounded by a sea of blood, which could only be seen upon close inspection. Each drop of blood was composed of countless blood cells, and the strong, pungent smell of blood was nauseating.
"The Golden Toad Great Sage's Daoist temple not only contains a grand formation containing Yin and Yang, the Four Symbols, and the Five Elements, but also a strange spatial power. If you want to take this place with minimal cost, you all need to unite with the Dao here!"
Generally speaking, Rakshasa's path to enlightenment only faces the earth gods, not the heavenly spirits. In the end, they all become half-step great earth demons. A single one is nothing, but if there are many of them, they can destroy the formations of the place where the Daoist practice is located by gradually devouring it.
Just then, the Rakshasa clan also received news from the human world that the Golden Toad Great Sage was trapped in a certain place in the White Rock Mountains by the Undying Demon Lord. Even if he didn't die, he wouldn't be able to escape easily, which gave them time to carry out their plan.
"In that case, the Twelve Rakshasa Emperors will protect us, uniting the heavens and earth from the north, northeast, and east, and then gradually devouring the Golden Toad Great Sage's Daoist temple with the power of the earth!"
As for the five directions—west, northwest, southwest, south, and southeast—they were left by the Rakshasa Blood Mother and her followers to the Rakshasa returning from the human world.
Once they form an encirclement, no matter how many tricks the Golden Toad Great Sage has up his sleeve, he will only be devoured.
Most importantly, although Rakshasa can only merge with the Dao to become an Earth Demon, due to the special nature of the Taiyin Star, she can abandon her Daoist temple and leave this place at any time, thus avoiding the Golden Toad Great Sage who will return to seek revenge.
"Boom boom boom!"
In an instant, the three Rakshasa at the Divine Lord level, who were ready to merge with the Dao, merged with the Dao at the same time, causing countless earth energies to rise from the east, northeast, and north sides of the Golden Toad Dojo, which eventually transformed into three Earth Gods.
Compared to the earth gods of the human world, these three earth gods are not so lively. Instead, they have a desolate, wild, and ruthless temperament. Their forms are not human, but three giant golden toads.
Upon seeing this, Sword Immortal Lord, who was waiting outside the arena to prepare for battle, changed his expression and immediately transmitted his voice to Su Ji in the center of the arena:
"Su Dasheng, a member of the Rakshasa clan..."
Before Sword Immortal could finish speaking, Su Ji immediately gave his reply:
“We misjudged the Rakshasa's plan. At this moment, a group of Rakshasa who had returned from the mortal realm were coming to kill us, which gave them the illusion that they could take us down step by step with minimal losses.”
"We cannot sit idly by and wait to die. Even if we cannot completely disrupt the process of the three Rakshasa demons merging with the Dao, we can still concentrate our forces to attack one place!"
Plans can't keep up with changes, and what was originally a poor strategy of taking the initiative has now become the best strategy.
Sword Immortal's eyes lit up. He had originally suggested taking the initiative to attack, and now that he had the opportunity, he had no objection whatsoever.
"Gentlemen, attack the east, draw most of the Rakshasa demons there, and then immediately retreat..."
Sword Immortal Lord's move was a "feint to the east while attacking the west," with many immortals and gods going to feign an attack on the east while he attacked the north alone.
Since Sword Immortal and Algae Immortal were outsiders from the Milky Way Great World and had never made a move before, Rakshasa Ghost could hardly have predicted that they would fall into his trap.
"Yes, Sword Immortal Lord!"
Master Kong Xiang and the others accepted the order. Since it was just a feint attack, as long as they could seize the opportunity to retreat in time, there would be basically no danger.
Hundreds of immortals and deities emerged from the east side of the sacred site, and before even leaving its boundaries, they launched an attack on two or three hundred Rakshasa demons not far away.
"Boom boom boom!"
The first to launch the attack was the Heavenly Craftsmanship Cannon, with a range of over a hundred miles, which could easily reach the location of the Rakshasa Demon.
Next came the mechs manufactured by the Ministry of Works. These were old items that Su Ji had bought from the Ministry of Works, totaling more than thirty pieces. Even though some of them were not yet equipped with hand cannons, they were also equipped with old-fashioned crossbows.
Finally, there are the immortals and gods with different methods. Some are immortals from the Cave Mystery Realm, some are born from various divine beasts, and there are also many ghost immortals.
"Quickly, defend!"
The primary task of the twelve Rakshasa Demon Emperor's sons was to protect the three veteran Rakshasa, who had merged with the Dao of Heaven and Earth to become Earth Demons. Naturally, they would not allow the immortals and gods under the Golden Toad Great Sage to cause trouble.
The so-called Rakshasa Emperor's Son is born from the "Rakshasa Emperor". He is quite different from ordinary Rakshasa who have reproduced for many generations. He can be considered a "born deity". However, he has not cultivated for long enough to be considered to have mediocre combat power.
"Two Rakshasa princes from the northeast are leading over two hundred Rakshasa to our aid, while a Rakshasa prince from the north is leading over one hundred Rakshasa to the northeast. It seems our plan has been initially successful!"
The purpose of the feigned attack by Kong Xiangzhen and other immortals was precisely this: they appeared to be rushing closer, but in reality, they had already prepared an escape route.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
"That Rakshasa demon dares to invade the Golden Toad Great Sage's dojo again? He's simply courting death!"
"With the Golden Toad Great Sage's invincible golden toad clone protecting us, even three or five Divine Lord-level Rakshasa are nothing to fear. Come with me and kill these sons of bitches!"
Sure enough, a giant golden toad appeared in the temple. It leaped out and headed towards the Toad Palace.
Many immortals and gods looked embarrassed as the golden toad went against their wishes, but Master Kongxiang remained calm and said:
"The Golden Toad is a divine beast of the [Metal] element. It can replicate a second or even a third clone simply by consuming various kinds of immortal metals. The second Golden Toad will help us break into the army of the Rakshasa Demons!"
As soon as he said this, a large chunk of earth and stone exploded on the ground to the left, and then a huge white toad leaped out and swallowed dozens of Rakshasa demons' ranged attacks.
"The Sky-Swallowing Toad!"
It turns out that in order to avoid being targeted, Su Ji and Yan Tianchou deliberately chose a different direction for the second golden toad, the source of which was the Devouring Toad in Su Ji's golden toad body's bloodline memory.
Even if these supernatural abilities were initially only low-grade Earth-rank supernatural abilities, Su Ji could acquire high-grade Earth-rank supernatural abilities through the deduction of the Heavenly Evolution Plan after spending countless mental energy!
Ultimately, Su Ji was no longer the same person he once was. With the East-West Chamber of Commerce and the new era established by Li Hui, he had no shortage of the mental power needed to deduce supernatural abilities.
"As expected, the second Golden Toad of the Golden Toad Great Sage is here to protect us!"
The morale of the immortals and gods soared. With the Second Golden Toad providing support at any time, they could unleash their magic power and employ various attack methods without any restraint.
"The second golden toad?"
The two Rakshasa princes who rushed to the rescue both turned solemn and led more than two hundred Rakshasa directly to attack the second Golden Toad. Before they even got close, a huge hand that covered the sky condensed in the air.
"Ok?"
The clone of Yan Tianchou, who was controlling the second golden toad, couldn't help but tense up. The huge hand in front of him seemed to be just a condensation of evil energy, but in fact there was a section of gray-black hand bone inside that exuded a strange power.
Based on the deduction, this grayish-black hand bone is 30% likely the remains of a powerful being and 66% likely the remains of the Rakshasa Emperor.
"The Emperor's Sacred Bones, help me capture the enemy!"
Driven by several Rakshasa Emperor's sons, the fingertips of this colossal hand ripped through the void, and countless void currents mixed with Yin Qi surged into the gray-black hand bone. Then, a seemingly harmless void sword blade flew out from the index finger.
"Even an ordinary powerful being couldn't break through the void of the Taiyin Star with a clone, so this hand bone must belong to the Rakshasa Emperor. The Moon Empress has placed a huge bet on this decisive battle!"
If the rumors are true, the Rakshasa Emperor was devoured by the Moon Queen long ago, and the undigested parts that could create new Rakshasa might include this hand bone.
Therefore, even if Yan Tianchou were to capture this Rakshasa hand bone, he would not be able to create new Rakshasa in a month, but he would not be as adept at it as he is now.
"boom!"
The second golden toad wouldn't foolishly take the void sword finger head-on; its massive body leaped to the side, dodging the fatal finger strike.
Ultimately, it was only the two Rakshasa princes who were controlling the Rakshasa Emperor's hand bones. They were already struggling to activate the Void Sword Finger, let alone be able to locate enemies through the void. "Devouring Heaven Divine Power!"
After the second golden toad landed, its enormous mouth suddenly opened, and an invisible force soared into the sky like a whirlwind. By the time it reached the giant hand that blotted out the sky, it had become as large as half the sky.
"Disrupt the Rakshasa Demon's union with the Dao!"
"Quickly weaken the second Golden Toad's supernatural powers!"
"All Heavenly Cannons, turn around and assist the Second Golden Toad in dealing with the Sky-Covering Giant Hand!"
"..."
Amidst the chaos of battle, a barely perceptible sword light suddenly flashed across the sky above the Rakshasa army to the north.
"Ok?"
One of the Rakshasa princes who remained behind showed a slight change in expression, looked up at the sky, and then a look of horror appeared on his face.
Before it could even utter a warning, the space above the giant Rakshasa demon in the middle, who was fighting the Earth God, trembled, and a figure formed of sword light appeared.
"Sword transforms into a galaxy!"
As the Sword God unleashed his sword, a silver river of light descended from the dark night sky toward the neck of the Rakshasa Giant Demon. Layer upon layer of void cracks appeared around it, eventually tearing open a portion of the void itself.
"Roar!"
The Rakshasa Giant Demon was clumsy to begin with, and caught off guard, most of its neck and one shoulder were severed by the Milky Way Sword Light. Black and red blood gushed into the sky like a fountain, mixed with the Rakshasa Giant Demon's resentful rage.
"Enemy attack!!!"
The moment the warning from the Rakshasa Emperor's son, who had discovered the Sword Immortal Lord, rang out, his face was filled with terror. He never expected that the Golden Toad Great Sage would actually invite such a powerful figure to help him.
Moreover, this person's appearance did not match that of the experts from various forces. If it weren't for the Rakshasa Giant Ghost's deep resentment touching their minds, they would have thought that they had fallen into an illusion.
"Snapped!"
After the giant Rakshasa demon's head fell to the ground, the surrounding Rakshasa recovered from their shock, followed by boundless fear.
Such a person could kill their unapproachable Rakshasa giant demon with just one sword. Wouldn't killing them be as easy as slaughtering a chicken?
Immediately, many Rakshasa demons lost their will to fight. Some scattered and fled in terror, while others gave up resistance in utter despair.
"Oh--"
Sword Immortal Lord ignored these Rakshasa minions, swung his sword at the three Rakshasa Emperor Princes, and then leaped towards the Rakshasa Blood Mother in the northeast.
"May the Emperor's spine protect us!"
The three Rakshasa Emperor's sons hurriedly summoned the Rakshasa Emperor's spine, only to discover that the Sword Immortal's sword strike was all show and no substance.
"Boom!"
The enormous Rakshasa demon's body collapsed like a mountain. Although it didn't die immediately, it was severely injured, not to mention that it was still in the process of attaining enlightenment.
"Quickly help the Rakshasa Giant Demon dispel the sword energy from its wounds, or it might be devoured by the Earth God and die!"
The three Rakshasa princes offered up the Emperor's spine in an attempt to help the Rakshasa giant demon as much as possible, and some ordinary Rakshasa also rushed to lend a hand...
Meanwhile, in the Rakshasa camp to the northeast, the three Rakshasa princes were sweating profusely. Even though they could clearly see the Sword Immortal's flight path, they were still not confident in stopping him.
Not to mention, the Rakshasa Emperor's hand bone, which they possessed, had already been taken by the two Rakshasa Emperor's sons to support the eastern battlefield.
"call out!"
Sword Immortal Lord charged directly into the battle formation formed by Rakshasa demons, but after looking at the Rakshasa Blood Mother in the center, he suddenly stopped.
"What a powerful Rakshasa Blood Mother! She defeated the Earth God so easily!"
Even without achieving Dao Integration, the Rakshasa Blood Mother's combat power could reach the level of an invincible Divine Lord with the help of countless disciples, making it not difficult for her to defeat a Dao Integration Earth God.
"Hahaha!"
A burst of maniacal laughter echoed from the sea of blood below, followed by a furious roar filled with resentment:
"Last time I lost a clone at the Golden Toad Great Sage's dojo. Now I not only retain my complete form, but I have also merged with the Dao here and become an Earth Demon. I dare to fight even if the Golden Toad Great Sage comes. You just wait to die!"
Countless tentacles emerged from the sea of blood, quickly forming a giant crimson hand, which then slammed down towards the Sword Immortal Lord in the air.
"Good timing!"
Sword Immortal Lord was not afraid at all. He drew his sword and charged forward. Even if he could not kill Rakshasa Blood Mother in a short time, he would stop her from expanding her dojo a second time...
At the same time, Immortal Algae and the First Golden Toad flew dozens of miles to a low-lying area that the "rebellious" Rakshasa from the direction of the Toad Palace would inevitably pass through.
"First Golden Toad, you can go and open up the underground escape passage first, while I set up the formation here!"
The primordial essence of small worlds is scarce, making it difficult to generate more profound mysteries. This not only limits the attainment of immortality but also hinders the development of array formations.
In the vast Milky Way world, celestial immortals are everywhere, and only celestial venerables can dominate a region. The Dao of Arrays can even reach the realm of celestial immortals, which is why many arrays have been passed down.
The great array, which is insufficient to be supported by the laws of this world, can be set up using the array pivot and array eye carried by Immortal Soil. Combined with the power of the laws of the world that she herself possesses, its power will far exceed the imagination of the immortals and gods of this world.
"The Great Algae Array!"
Since the Immortal Lord of Algae takes Algae as his title, he naturally understands the Dao principles related to algae. As the rolling waves surged out from the pearl in his hand, a small lake gathered in this low-lying area.
However, as layers of algae continued to grow, the lake, which should have gradually expanded, gradually merged with the surrounding land, and the pits and depressions seemed to be covered by living soil.
When nearly a thousand Rakshasa arrived, they found nothing unusual about the ground below. It wasn't until giant seaweed, each over a hundred feet long, rose from the ground that the Rakshasa realized they had been ambushed.
"Humph!"
The leader of the Rakshasa was not alarmed at all. After receiving the order, they knew that their trip to the Golden Toad Great Sage's dojo might be ambushed. They thought it would be the Candle Nine Yin Divine Emperor, who was on good terms with the Golden Toad Great Sage, but they did not expect it to be these beings they had never seen before.
"Unleash the Imperial Weapon and annihilate the enemy!"
The Rakshasa had limited time and didn't want to waste it here, so they directly brought out their biggest trump card—the Imperial Weapon.
The so-called imperial weapon is the imperial-level weapon used by the Rakshasa Emperor during his lifetime, and it has been worshipped by countless Rakshasa from ancient times to the present.
A month later, to prevent the Rakshasa from being stopped by the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals on their way to the mortal realm, they were instructed to bring along the Imperial Weapons they were worshipping.
Now, this group of Rakshasa has been ordered to return to Taiyin Star, and naturally brought back the Imperial Weapon with them. Once it is unleashed, they will kill anyone who dares to obstruct them!
