Chapter 200: Chapter 191: Hoist with One’s Own Petard

The Flame Emperor’s power was extraordinary, reaching a realm beyond comprehension. Marks were imprinted between heaven and earth, spreading their power into every corner of the Three Realms, and even had control over the Sun Star.

His descendants benefited from this lineage and were born exceptional, able to resonate with the Sun Star naturally and draw upon its power from birth.

Jiang Chen, however, was different. In addition to being a descendant of the Flame Emperor, he also had the Sun God Staff, a treasure that could also resonate with the Sun Star.

When combined, the power Jiang Chen borrowed from the Sun Star became even stronger.

Boom!

With the addition of the Sun Star, Jiang Chen felt infinite power filling his body. Even if a Great Luo Golden Immortal came, he felt he could kill them.

Of course, this was an illusion caused by a rapid increase in power, leading him to be momentarily dizzy and to feel invincible.

However, Jiang Chen quickly recovered his sanity. He knew he was not yet a match for a Great Luo Golden Immortal, but his power had indeed increased, much stronger than before.

As fast as a thought, the Six Demons had already rushed to Jiang Chen’s front, their weapons blooming with dazzling light, spurting out boundless power.

All kinds of divine lights were seen, sweeping through the air, about to engulf Jiang Chen.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen didn’t dodge or hide, he let the attacks hit him.

Boom Boom Boom!

A series of explosions rang out. Terrifying divine power waves spread out, causing tens of thousands of ripples on the Eastern Sea.

However, one could see that Jiang Chen’s body was wrapped in a brilliant golden light. No matter how strong the Six Demons’ attacks were, they couldn’t hurt him.

"As long as the sun does not die, I will not die!" Jiang Chen proclaimed boldly, staring at the Six Demons.

Of course, this was bravado, but isn’t life-or-death combat about using any mean to intimidate your enemy? Perhaps he might scare them off?

"Pah, nonsense!"

After spitting in disgust, the Peng Demon King scolded.

The Six Demons, of course, didn’t believe Jiang Chen’s bold claim. If he could do that, they wouldn’t have been able to put pressure on him together.

Despite their disbelief, the current situation was telling them that with the power of the Sun Star, the opponent was indeed different. At the very least, they could no longer hurt Jiang Chen with their attacks.

The power of Primordial Yang is unlimited in vitality and can provide Jiang Chen with a great deal of life force. As long as the damage caused by the Six Demons did not exceed the limit of the Primordial Yang Power, they could not harm him.

"Die!"

Jiang Chen swept with the Sun God Staff, and infinite Sun True Fire spurted out. The golden flames were brilliant and possessed the power to burn all things. They ignited the void, turning the area into a sea of fire, spreading towards the Six Demons.

This Sun True Fire, one of the Ten True Fires of the Prehistoric World, displayed through the Sun God Staff, was incredibly powerful. Even a Great Luo Golden Immortal would not fare well if they came into contact with it. A Taiyi Golden Immortal would be reduced to ash in no time, completely obliterated.

"This is not good, retreat quickly, it’s the Sun True Fire."

The Six Demons, who had quite a background, recognized the approaching golden Sun True Fire and knew its origin. Immediately, without any hesitation, they began to retreat.

"Do you think you can escape?"

With a cold smile, Jiang Chen used the Yellow Sand Bead.

Without delay, endless yellow sand was swept up, covering the area. The flying sand stirred up gusts of wind, which stoked the fire, making the Sun True Fire even more intense.

The scope of the fire expanded rapidly, and it appeared to be about to catch up with the Six Demons. However, at this moment, Peng Demon King suddenly turned back and said, "Who doesn’t possess an Innate Spiritual Treasure?"

As he spoke, a golden feather emitting a faint aura emerged in his hand.

Without endorsing any commands by the Peng Demon King, the approaching Sun True Fire opened up like it had eyes, avoiding him as it passed by.

A Dapeng Feather?.

No, this was a feather shed by the Monster Master Kunpeng.

The Monster Master Kunpeng was an extremely powerful being who almost reached a state of sanctification. Whether in the present-day Three Realms or in the Ancient Chaos era, he was one of the greatest Divine Transcendents in Heaven and Earth.

As you can imagine, the strength of his feathers was extraordinary. Even ordinary feathers had power not weaker than Innate Magical Treasures. Let alone his life feathers, they were absolutely not less powerful than Innate Spiritual Treasures.

However, though remarkable this feather might be, it was still inferior when compared to the Sun God Staff. It wouldn’t work if he wanted to resist Jiang Chen with it.

Seeing the Peng Demon King use his feather to divide the Sun True Fire, Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes. The power in his Sun God Staff increased significantly. All at once, the ferocity of the Sun True Fire surged, overpowering the Kunpeng feathers and continuing to spread towards the Six Demons.

Behind the Peng Demon King, the Fifth Demon, the Macaque King, seeing the raging flames, quickly stepped forward to stand next to him and said, "Third Brother, don’t worry, let me give you a hand."

As soon as the words fell, a lamp that seemed to be carved from jade appeared in the Macaque King’s hand. There were two wicks in the lamp, burning with two twists of flame. The sparks crackled and popped upwards.

The flashing firelight made the entire field extremely dizzying, as if infinite quantities of multicolored lights were surging.

This treasure was called the Green Light Yin Yang Lamp, a high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. It seemed both Buddhist and Taoist in nature, originally used for lighting in Donghuang Taiyi’s bedroom.

The life of the ancient giants was so extravagant that something which everyone in the world would do anything to get their hands on, a high-grade innate spiritual artifact, was merely a lamp in his room.

After Donghuang Taiyi fell, this lamp fell into the Prehistoric World. After changing hands several times, somehow Macaque King got ahold of it, becoming his protective treasure.

When this treasure is invoked, a single thought can transform into countless thoughts.

Even if one possesses a formidable power, there will still be times when they are caught off guard and unknowingly, they are being refined by the light of the Yin-Yang lamp.

This lamp can also transform spiritual energy into Yin and Yang. If the lamp’s owner practices within it, their progress will be extraordinarily quick and they will also reap countless unspeakable advantages.

In comparison to the present Sun God Staff, this treasure doesn’t rank any lower.

"Rise!"

The Macaque King summoned the Green Light Yin-Yang Lamp. The immaculate light that radiated from the lamp revealed a myriad of emerald colored rays that differentiated into Yin and Yang, effectively neutralizing the incoming Sun True Fire.

After witnessing this, the eyes of the other four demons silently spun around, uncertain whether they were apprehensive of being outdone, each took out a magical treasure.

The Bull Demon King opened his mouth and spit out a small, delicate bell that circled with the innate Dao Rhyme. Obviously, this was an innate spiritual treasure as well.

The Flood Dragon Demon King’s broken horn emitted light and surprisingly, regenerated. A Dragon Pearl rose from within the horn, radiating divine light. This also was an innate spiritual treasure.

The Lion Camel King pulled out a whip, while the Rock Monkey King brought out a seal. Each of them glowed with the light of the innate Dao, both of them were also innate spiritual treasures.

What a rare sight, six demonic kings, six innate spiritual treasures. What kind of brothers has Sun Wukong made? Not one of them has a simple background.

Seeing each of the six demons taking out their innate spiritual treasures, Jiang Chen knew that he was in danger. He might have been able to handle one or two such treasures,

But with six innate spiritual treasures, in combination with the six powerful demon kings whose strength reached the later stages of the Taiyi Golden Immortal, even if the Great Luo Golden Immortal were to come, he could be beaten to death, much less him.

His heart tightening, Jiang Chen promptly signaled to his thousand heavenly soldiers to attack the six demons, hoping to create a chance for him to escape.

As for relying on the Pagoda Bearing Heavenly King, Jiang Chen had no such thoughts at all. It must be known that Li Jing, the Pagoda Bearing Heavenly King, was the disciple of Master Randeng, who is now the past Buddha of the West.

Jiang Chen’s greatest enemy in the West is the past Buddha, Randeng. Because of the Sea-Pacifying God Pearl, he had blocked this Buddha’s path to enlightenment.

The hatred of blocking one’s path is even worse than killing. Unless Jiang Chen hands over the Sea Pacifying God Pearl to the ancient Buddha Randeng, this enmity is irreconcilable.

Well,

In light of this, this enmity indeed seems impossible to reconcile.

...

Depend on the enemy’s disciple for rescue? Isn’t that a joke? So Jiang Chen, knowing the origin of the Pagoda Bearing Heavenly King, didn’t expect the other party to lend him a hand at all.

Didn’t you see that after fighting for half a day, you didn’t see him sending troops to help?

...

Jiang Chen had just given the order, and his heavenly soldiers had not yet had a chance to take action. They saw the Seven Fairy Sisters making the first move.

"Evil creatures, don’t bully the Heaven Court. Watch my sword!" With a soft shout, all seven fairy sisters leaped from the cloud, unsheathed their swords, and charged at the six demons.

Don’t misunderstand, they’re not trying to help Jiang Chen out of this predicament, they only believed the Pagoda Bearing Heavenly King’s lies, thinking that this is indeed Jiang Chen’s opportunity, and they wanted to step in and ruin it.

If his opportunity is ruined, then the little thief will definitely be devastated. And when Jiang Chen is unhappy, the Seven Fairy Sisters will be very happy.

That’s what they thought, hence, that’s what they did. With their simplicity, how would they ever consider that the Pagoda Bearing Heavenly King, who is the Jade Emperor’s confidant, would lie to them?

However, as a rainbow-colored radiance flashed by, the Seven Fairy Sisters appeared in front of Jiang Chen and said, "Heavenly King, don’t worry. We sisters are here to lend you a hand."

Instead of feeling relief from hearing their words, Jiang Chen furrowed his brows. When did he and the Seven Fairy Sisters become so close that they would risk their lives to save him?

Whilst he was baffled, Jiang Chen noticed a hint of smugness in the eyes of the Seven Fairy Sisters.

What are they so smug about?

The Innate Eight Diagrams in his Sea of Consciousness spun frantically, and soon, Jiang Chen roughly calculated the progression of the situation.

Then, he almost couldn’t help but laugh. Was this a case of the Pagoda Bearing Heavenly King trapping himself? Even though he really wanted to laugh, Jiang Chen held it in.

Keeping his face stern, he emotionlessly said to the Seven Fairy Sisters, "I really have to thank the seven princesses for their generous help."

When he said the words "thank you", Jiang Chen intentionally emphasized their old grudges, making him seem extremely reluctant.

He is anxious, he is anxious, this little thief is anxious.

The Seven Fairy Sisters, upon seeing Jiang Chen’s reaction, were even more convinced that they did the right thing. The smugness in their eyes increased threefold.

"Evil creatures, behold my sword!" Satisfied at heart, the Seven Fairy Sisters lunged forward with their swords, intending to engage in close combat with the six demons.

To be honest, the six demons were all at the Taiyi Golden Immortal level, and their combat experience was extremely rich. The Seven Fairy Sisters were only at the Golden Immortal level, and their combat experience was virtually nil.

If they were to engage in battle, with the Seven Fairy Sisters’ cultivation level, they were just delivering experience to the six demons.

ps: I’m so happy, the old book was recommended by a pirated version. I was overjoyed when my friend told me about it.

As I spoke, tears began to fall.

The official version didn’t recommend me, but the pirated one was pushing me hard. I was moved. I felt like finding the boss of the pirate site and giving him a fist symbolizing friendship.

Sigh, if the pirated version could fix its drawback of not paying me a manuscript fee, it would be perfect.
