The Celestial Court!
It seemed that the Jade Emperor was in charge of the Three Realms, but the immortals were not loyal to him. Every Dao was different and had their own thoughts. There was no need to go into detail here.
However, since the Jade Emperor had spoken, someone naturally had to subdue the demon. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a joke if the huge Heavenly Realm asked an unknown Daoist to subdue the Essence Demon?
"I'm willing to lead the 28 Lunar Mansions and 30,000 Heavenly Soldiers to subdue this demon." Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li Jing bowed.
"Alright, I'll send Liu Ding and Liu Jia under your command. You must subdue this demon. Don't let others look down on the reputation of the Heavenly Realm." The Jade Emperor nodded slowly.
"Yes, Sir!"
The Immortal Cloud War Drum rumbled in the hands of the golden-armored soldiers. Li Jing led the 28 Lunar Mansions and gathered 30,000 Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals. There were also Liu Ding and Liu Jia beside him. They rose a golden cloud that covered the sky and chased after Ye Xuan and the Essence Demon.
In the Jade Pool.
Immortal clouds lingered and golden light shone brightly. The Star Lord on Duty took out the Heavenly Mirror and injected an immortal art into it. Immediately, the Heavenly Mirror shone brightly and reflected the scene of Ye Xuan and Yuan Ling fighting in the distance.
"Essence Demon, don't go!"
Ye Xuan shook the Soul Suppressing Banner, and the void within 5,000 kilometers collapsed. It also hit Yuan Ling's back fiercely, causing Yuan Ling to go crazy with hatred. However, he did not dare to say anything and ran for his life.
"Fellow Daoist, Li Jing is here to help you!"
Golden light filled the sky and immortal clouds rolled. Amidst the rumbling of the war drums, Li Jing came over with the Exquisite Pagoda in his hand. The 28 Lunar Mansions beside him shone with immortal light, and all kinds of Dharma treasures that had never been heard of before surged out.
At this moment!
Ye Xuan's eyes turned. He waved his hand and released a hundred thousand feet of immortal light, trapping the world. He immediately retreated, leaving the battlefield to Li Jing and the others.
Obviously, Ye Xuan was not that stupid. He would really risk his life to kill Yuan Ling. Li Jing and the others would risk their lives to fight Yuan Ling. This was something that he was very happy to see.
Although Li Jing was slightly stunned by Ye Xuan's retreat, he did not say much. He only thought that the Daoist had already injured his vitality due to the battle with the Essence Devil. It was understandable for him to retreat.
"Set up the Heavenly Cycle of 28 Mansions Formation!"
The twenty-eight Lunar Mansions shone brightly, and the Dharma treasures in their hands emitted thousands of auspicious auras. The starlight that fell from the sky turned into an immortal formation that covered the sky, instantly trapping Essence Demon in the center. The thirty thousand heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals held their golden halberds and looked at Essence Demon solemnly.
"Go!"
The Exquisite Pagoda flew out from Li Jing's hand, and then it expanded in the wind to become 30,000 meters in size. It carried an extremely terrifying immortal light as it descended towards Yuan Ling.
At the same time, the twenty-eight Lunar Mansions and the thirty thousand Heavenly Soldiers activated the Lunar Mansions Grand Array. The Heavenly Light in the sky turned into Demon-Destroying Heavenly Thunder and struck towards Yuan Ling violently.
At this moment!
Yuan Ling's expression was sinister, and his body was stained with blood. Faced with the overwhelming immortal light and Dharma treasures, a solemn look flashed across his eyes.
He was only borrowing the body of Essence Demon now, and his cultivation was only at the Grand Unity Mystic Immortal level. How could he resist the killing formation set up by Li Jing and the twenty-eight Lunar Mansions? Moreover, Ye Xuan was eyeing him covetously from the side and looked like he was about to launch a sneak attack at any time.
Yuan Ling stared at Ye Xuan and saw him smiling sinisterly at him. This made him even more furious, and he even had an impulse to summon the Dharma body that he had hidden in the Earth Immortal World and directly kill all these ants and Ye Xuan in front of him.
However, Yuan Ling knew that he could not do that. If he really did so, he was afraid that the moment he killed these ants, the Three Pure Ones Dao Ancestors of the 33 Heavens Beyond Heaven would definitely obliterate his Divine Soul. He simply could not bear such a price.
Clang!
Yuan Ling waved the Bronze Immortal Sutra, and the Grand Unity Immortal Light shot out and directly blasted the Exquisite Pagoda away. This also made Li Jing's expression change, and he formed a spell with both hands, once again controlling the Exquisite Pagoda to attack Essence Demon.
After all, Li Jing's cultivation was at the Grand Unity Mystic Immortal level, and he was in charge of the Heaven Realm Army after the apotheosis. He was conferred the title of Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King. At this moment, Essence Demon's cultivation was not at the Grand Unity Golden Immortal level of the past, so how could he be at a disadvantage?
After all, he dared to ask for permission to fight because he could see that Essence Demon's cultivation was not at the Grand Unity Golden Immortal level of the past. Moreover, they were both Grand Unity Mystic Immortals, but the mysterious Daoist could suppress Essence Demon. How could he, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, be inferior to that Daoist?
Unfortunately, Li Jing did not know that Ye Xuan was able to suppress Yuan Ling because both of them practiced the Immortal Sutra. Moreover, Ye Xuan had mastered the Forbidden Chapter and the Forbidden Dharma Artifact, the Billion Soul Suppressing Banner. Naturally, he had formed a great suppression over Yuan Ling.
Although Li Jing was also a Grand Unity Mystic Immortal, how could his Seven-Orifice Exquisite Pagoda compare to Yuan Ling's Bronze Sutra? Moreover, the Immortal Sutra was mysterious and unfathomable. If Li Jing did not have the help of the 28 Mansions, he would have been defeated by Yuan Ling long ago.
The 28 Mansions had already seen that Li Jing was at a disadvantage in the battle of Dharma treasures, and they were not surprised. After all, in the distant past, whether it was Erlang Xiansheng or that lawless monkey, they had all beaten Li Jing to a pulp. Even his son, Nezha, who was at odds with him, could beat Li Jing with one hand.
Li Jing's defeat did not surprise the 28 Mansions at all. However, they could not just watch the show. Naturally, they had to kill Essence Demon together, and only then could they return to report to the Jade Emperor.
"Slay the demon!"
The 28 Mansions activated the formation, and thousands of starlight and auspicious Qi suddenly fell. All kinds of Immortal Dharma treasures surged out, and thirty thousand Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals charged towards Yuan Ling in a frenzy.
A great battle began. Yuan Ling shook the Bronze Sutra and fought with Li Jing and the others to a standstill. He even fled into the distance from time to time.
This battle lasted for three days and three nights. The blood of ten thousand Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals dyed the sky red, and the 28 Mansions were all seriously injured. Apart from Li Jing, who was a Grand Unity Mystic Immortal and could barely resist Yuan Ling, the others were constantly retreating, and Yuan Ling was about to break out of the encirclement.
This scene was very well presented in the Heavenly Mirror, and it also made the Immortals in the Jade Pool have different expressions. Even the Jade Emperor, the supreme of the Three Realms, looked a little pale.
The Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, who led the 28 Mansions and thirty thousand Heavenly Soldiers, was actually defeated by Essence Demon. He was not even as good as a mysterious Daoist. This was simply a disgrace to the Celestial Court and the Jade Emperor.
"Ladies and gentlemen, who can slay this demon?"
The Jade Emperor finally could not sit still, and there was some anger in his voice.
Unfortunately, no one in the Jade Pool stood out, and this made the Jade Emperor's face even gloomier.
Perhaps some people would ask, "Is there no one who can subdue Essence Demon, who is only a Grand Unity Mystic Immortal, in the 33 Heavens of the Heaven Realm?"
In fact, the strength of the Heaven Realm was unimaginably terrifying. However, every Immortal had their own thoughts, and some Immortals even wanted to see the Jade Emperor make a fool of himself.
For example, the son of Li Jing, Nezha, the Great Divinity of the Three Jars of the Sea, could kill Yuan Mo by himself. Then there was Erlang, the Holy Lord of the Guanjiang Estuary, who could easily kill a Primordial Unity Mystic Immortal.
