Chapter 71 Li Jing presses down on the city, Nezha names Red Boy
Red Boy became a hit.
He was standing behind Sun Wukong, listening to Li Jing's provocation, waiting for the strategist's order. Who knew that the child in the sky, riding on his Wind-Fire Wheels, would suddenly point his Fire-Tipped Spear at him?
"The monster below."
Nezha's voice was arrogant, like he was barking at a dog.
"I'm giving you a chance. Surrender and pledge allegiance to the Heavenly Court, and I'll give you the position of弼马温 (Bima Wen, a lowly stable boy). Otherwise, this place will be your site for the fire sacrifice."
Red Boy's face instantly turned red.
Who is he? The son of the Bull Demon King, the Great King of the Sacred Infant Mountain, who has lived for three hundred years and has never suffered such humiliation. Guanyin took him in to incorporate him into her ranks, not to trample on him and piss on him.
"Who do you think you are?"
Red Boy took a step forward, and the fiery clouds beneath his feet exploded three feet wide.
"So what if you're a disciple of Taiyi Zhenren? You were defeated by your father Li Jing three hundred years ago, and you dare to be arrogant in front of me?"
Someone in the air couldn't hold back and laughed.
The giant spirit laughed the loudest.
Nezha's face turned completely cold. He hated it most when people brought up the old story of Li Jing carrying the pagoda; it was his shame.
"court death."
With a stomp of his Wind-Fire Wheels, Nezha charged down from the clouds. He twirled his Fire-Tipped Spear and aimed straight for Red Boy's face.
Just as Sun Wukong was about to use his golden cudgel, Chen Fan raised his hand to stop him.
"Let the monkey hit him."
Sun Wukong was stunned for a moment, but when he saw the light in Chen Fan's eyes, he immediately understood.
This is what Red Boy has been waiting for.
He waited three hundred years for a chance to prove that he was no less than Nezha.
"Good timing!"
Instead of retreating, Red Boy charged forward, meeting the spear tip head-on. He clenched his fists, and Samadhi True Fire erupted directly from his palms.
boom--
The two flames collided, and the entire sky exploded into chaos.
Red Boy's Samadhi True Fire is a pure Yang fire that has burned for three hundred years. Nezha's Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover is powerful, but he doesn't wear it now.
With the spear tips touching their palms, the two fought to a draw.
Nezha's expression changed.
He thought it would be a piece of cake, but he didn't expect the monster to be so tough.
"Red Boy, I'll give you one more chance—"
"Give your grandma a chance!"
Red Boy roared, and flames suddenly surged from his entire body. Instead of retreating, he advanced and punched Nezha in the chest.
That punch was too fast.
Nezha hastily raised his spear to parry, but was knocked back three steps by the blow.
"impossible……"
Nezha was a little confused.
He was listed on the Investiture of the Gods, achieved physical immortality, and his combat prowess ranked among the top ten in Heaven. How could he have been defeated by a mere demon?
Red Boy leaped forward again, unleashing a barrage of punches and kicks.
"The Great God of the Three Altars and the Seas?"
"this one?"
"Today, I, the Great King, will burn down the name of your Three Altars of the Great God of the Seas!"
Every punch was imbued with Samadhi Fire, every kick was accompanied by a raging storm. Nezha was overwhelmed and began to lose ground.
On the cloud, Li Jing's expression changed.
"stop!"
He finally made his move.
The Linglong Pagoda was suspended in mid-air, its base radiating golden light, and a beam of light shot directly towards Red Boy.
Sun Wukong moved.
The golden cudgel grew longer as it faced the wind, and smashed down on the pillar of light.
boom--
The entire sky trembled.
The beam of light was deflected, grazing Red Boy's shoulder and burning a piece of his clothes.
Red Boy retreated, his eyes filled with fire.
"Damn it, that old bastard Li Jing launched a sneak attack!"
Chen Fan remained silent.
He kept looking at Li Jing's tower.
wrong.
Chen Fan narrowed his eyes.
Li Jing's attack just now wasn't intended to hurt Red Boy at all. The angle at which the golden light from the bottom of the tower was deliberately off-target—it wasn't off-target towards the sky, but towards the back of Flower Fruit Mountain.
What's on the back of Huaguo Mountain?
Chen Fan suddenly turned around.
The back mountain is the lair of the monkey soldiers and the foundation of Huaguo Mountain's fortune.
not good!
"Li Jing's target isn't us, it's the destiny of Flower Fruit Mountain!"
Chen Fan had just shouted it out.
The first floor of the Linglong Tower is now open.
An extremely faint golden light drifted out from the bottom of the tower, as light as a feather.
But when this feather drifted towards the back of Flower Fruit Mountain, all the monkey soldiers stopped for a moment.
Then--
A dozen or so monkey soldiers fell straight down.
It's out of breath.
"Hold!"
Chen Fan cursed.
This is extracting a soul!
Li Jing had no intention of winning today; he only wanted to slowly wear down Huaguo Mountain with the Linglong Pagoda, draining away all its fortune and demonic energy.
Once the luck is drained, Flower Fruit Mountain is finished.
"Sun Wukong, stop hitting him!"
Chen Fan roared to the sky.
"Li Jing is going to destroy the foundation of Flower Fruit Mountain! Smash his tower!"
Sun Wukong immediately returned to defend, smashing his staff at the Linglong Pagoda.
But Li Jing had anticipated this move.
The second level of the tower has opened.
A suction force descended directly from the sky, freezing Sun Wukong in place for half a second.
Half a second was enough for the third golden light to float out.
More than a dozen monkey soldiers fell.
Chen Fan's eyes turned completely cold as he watched this scene.
He knew Li Jing was formidable.
On the surface, this old man was leading the army to fight, but in reality, he had been scheming to undermine the foundation of Huaguo Mountain from the very beginning.
This battle will be difficult.
On the ground, Red Boy also noticed something amiss.
"Strategist! What's wrong with the monkey brothers?!"
Chen Fan did not answer.
He was calculating rapidly.
The Linglong Pagoda has nine floors, and it's already this troublesome after only opening one floor. If Li Jing were to open the ninth floor, all the demons and spirits of Flower Fruit Mountain would be wiped out.
It must be stopped.
But the question is, who will stop it?
Sun Wukong was being held back by Li Jing, Nezha was locked in a fierce battle with Red Boy, and the Giant Spirit God, along with his Thunder Department generals, were watching them intently.
Chen Fan looked at his hands.
There is one more chance to redeem in the system.
He hesitated.
If you use it now, it will be even harder later.
But no need, Flower Fruit Mountain will be finished today.
Damn it, I'm going all out.
Chen Fan gritted his teeth, about to start the system—
Suddenly, he saw something.
When the second floor of the Linglong Pagoda was opened, there was a crack in the pagoda.
It's very fine; you can't see it at all if you're not paying attention.
Those were the injuries inflicted by Sun Wukong last time.
Li Jing couldn't fix it?
Chen Fan's heart skipped a beat.
If someone were to attack the crack from the outside at this moment...
"Listen up, everyone!"
Chen Fan channeled his full magical power, his voice dominating the battlefield.
"Red Boy! Stop wasting time with Nezha! Find a way to get close to the Linglong Pagoda and break through that crack in it!"
"Sun Wukong! Find a way to force Li Jing out of the tower!"
"All monkey soldiers of Flower Fruit Mountain, listen up! Retreat to the back of the mountain! Quickly!"
The moment the order was given, the battlefield came to a standstill.
But at that moment, the third floor of the Linglong Tower opened.
The suction suddenly intensified.
This time, the fallen monkey soldiers were not one by one, but in rows.
Red Boy's eyes were bloodshot.
"Your Majesty!!!"
He's crazy.
The flames all over his body suddenly turned pure gold.
That is the original fire of Samadhi True Fire.
"Nezha, you're finished."
Red Boy's voice suddenly became very calm.
"If you can't go back today, then don't go back."
The fiery clouds beneath his feet dissipated.
His entire body transformed into a golden fire tornado, rushing towards Nezha.
Its momentum was so great that it seemed to burn through the sky.
Chen Fan's pupils contracted slightly.
He figured out what Red Boy was up to.
This is a fight to the death.
Once the source of the Samadhi True Fire is burned out, all cultivation will be lost.
"Red Boy, come back!"
But it was too late.
The golden fire tornado crashed directly into Nezha.
With a deafening roar, the entire sky was dyed gold.
The smoke and dust cleared.
Nezha's body was half charred black, and he lay on the clouds.
Red Boy is almost done too.
He was covered in blood, but he was still standing.
"I said I'd burn you, and I'm going to burn you."
After saying this, Red Boy fell straight down.
The battlefield fell silent for a moment.
Then, the fourth floor of the Linglong Tower opened.
Chen Fan looked at the tower, with only one thought in his mind:
This tower must be destroyed immediately.
Otherwise, Huaguo Mountain would truly be awash in blood today.
