Chapter 95: The Second War of Huaguo Mountain (Three)

  On the mountain stronghold, Lei Da Niu stared blankly at the sky where Lei Hao was wildly and majestically galloping, his face slightly lost.

  "I originally thought that as long as we became Earthly Immortals, we would be able to help him, but it turns out that the distance between us and him has not shortened, but instead has grown farther and farther apart." Lei Daniu muttered to himself.

  And the other small demons and little overlords on the mountain were crazily cheering with all their might, waving flags that shook with great force, as if their loud shouts and vigorous flag-waving could bring some kind of power to Lei Hao.

  "It's only been half a year since I've been in heaven, and Niu Tou's strength has changed dramatically again! He hasn't even activated his Violent Thunder Source yet, but he can already beat Nezha to this state in his normal condition. Has his cultivation broken through again?" Just as Lei Dabao was staring at Lei Hao in a daze, lost in thought, a familiar voice clearly reached his ears.

  Lei Da Niu was startled, he suddenly turned his head and saw the spirited Sun Wukong. He wore a crown with armor, an apricot-yellow robe draped over it, his feet were clad in cloud shoes, and his entire body emitted a thick golden light, just like a Buddha statue cast from gold in a temple.

  Seeing that it was Sun Wukong, Lei Daniu hastily said: "Reporting to Qi Tian Da..." Before he could say a few words, Lei Daniu saw Sun Wukong frowning and turning his head to look at him, so he quickly changed his tone and said: "Monkey brother, after you ascended to heaven, you left alone and no one knew where you went. It's been almost a hundred years since then, and Big Sister and the others have cried countless times without knowing what happened to you. You only returned half a year ago, just before your battle with the heavenly messenger Tongzi. We brothers aren't even clear about your cultivation breakthroughs. Today, we finally understand that your strength has increased by so much."

  Sun Wukong heard this and a hint of doubt flashed across his face. He thought for a moment, then infused his eyes with magical power and carefully examined Lei Hao's every move. After several breaths, he discovered something was off. Still staring at Lei Hao without turning back, he asked, "Big Bull, wasn't the color of your original magic purple?"

  "Yes."

  Sun Wukong's voice suddenly rose several pitches as he exclaimed in surprise: "Then why is Niu Mowang's magical power now purple and red?"

  Lei Daniu was also taken aback when he heard the words, and immediately infused his magical powers into his eyes. After gazing carefully for several breaths, he too discovered something. He grasped the bull horns on his head with one hand, equally astonished, saying: "Hearing you say this, I've also realized that Monkey Brother, you and Tou are both top-notch demons, could it be that you don't know why either?"

  Sun Wukong extended his divine consciousness, slowly approaching the space where Lei Hao and Nezha were fighting. In that space, he felt a violent thunder attribute magic power, and also sensed a double strand of fire attribute magic power.

  "Two strands?" Sun Wukong exclaimed in disbelief.

  "Monkey brother, what's wrong?" Lei Daniu hastily asked upon hearing this.

  Sun Wukong didn't respond, he gently closed his eyes and extended all of his divine senses as a Golden Immortal in the later stages, covering everything within a radius of 10,000 miles with Flower Fruit Mountain at its center. In his divine senses, there was indeed a familiar Thunder Attribute power and two Fire Attribute powers colliding fiercely. All three powers were at the peak of the early Golden Immortal stage, and he would be in trouble if he faced any one of them alone.

  "Nezha is a fire-attribute magic, I've known that for a long time. So, this fire-attribute magic can only be... Niu Tou's!" Sun Wukong was shocked by the result he had inferred.

  The higher the level, the more one knows that cultivating two or more of the Five Elements' origins is extremely difficult. The more you cultivate, the more time it takes, increasing by tens of thousands of years for each additional element.

  "Has your family head ever eaten those few ginseng pills I gave him?" Monkey King Sun Wukong asked, turning his head to ask Lei Daniu.

  Lei Da Niu shook his head immediately and said, "No, after you returned, you went into seclusion. He said that a great war was about to break out in Huaguo Mountain, and asked us brothers to gather all the demon troops of Huaguo Mountain. After that, he has been commanding the seventy-two small demon kings to defend on top of Huaguo Mountain."

  Now, Sun Wukong had nothing to say. He was finally defeated by Lei Hao's cultivation speed. Thinking back to when he returned from his master, with a Golden Immortal-level cultivation that dominated the Eastern Victory Divine State, how proud and arrogant he was! At that time, Lei Hao was just a small demon in the Inner Dan realm, but now, after only a hundred years, Lei Hao had grown to the point where even if Sun Wukong tried his best to catch up, he couldn't.

  Now he has refined the two and a half gourd golden elixirs, his cultivation has finally advanced from the early stage of Golden Immortal to the later stage. He thought he could still show off in front of Lei Hao for some time, but when he came out of seclusion, he found that Lei Hao was now a double-element Golden Immortal of thunder and fire.

  At this moment, Leihao and Nezha's battle has also come to a decisive victory or defeat.

  At their level, it's normal to take one or two years to determine the outcome of a battle. In the heavenly realm, there are often immortals who engage in competitions to compare their skills, magic treasures, cultivation levels, and techniques for manipulating magic treasures, fighting back and forth for several years. After all, once they become immortals, as long as they don't encounter a great calamity of heaven and earth, the lifespan of all immortals is almost endless.

  But Leihao and Nezha are different, Leihao is the famous Di Jing Yao Wang of the three realms, from a young age he learned to use big sticks to hit people and big knives to cut people, walking on the path of relying on force; while Nezha is also a well-known Tian Ting Zhan Jiang, although his magical weapons and arms are all top-notch treasures in the Heavenly Court, but he walks on the path of physical sanctification, and is used to winning or losing with his arms.

  When this immortal and demon met, every time they took action, it was always with all their might. All the ultimate moves that could be used were also brought out in full force, fighting with hot blood boiling over, forgetting everything, until all means had been exhausted, then one move would decide the outcome.

  At this time, in the sky, Lei Hao and Nezha were tightly gripping their weapons, facing each other from a distance of several hundred feet.

  From Sun Wukong's perspective, at this time, Lei Hao's complexion remained unchanged, his aura condensed and did not disperse. The purple-red dual-colored magic power was constantly surging with Lei Hao's breathing, and the Dragon Slaying Sword was quietly grasped in Lei Hao's hand without any trembling, clearly having the upper hand.

  Nezha's complexion was as white as snow, his breath was somewhat disordered, and the fiery red magic on his body had also dimmed. His hand grasping the fire-tipped spear now had bulging veins, but he still couldn't suppress the slight trembling of the fire-tipped spear. Therefore, Nezha was undoubtedly at a disadvantage.

  Even though Nezha was seriously injured at this time, the spirit in his big eyes did not diminish, and he still looked at Lei Hao with a strong desire to fight. After a while, he solemnly held the fire spear in front of his chest with both hands, paid a martial salute to Lei Hao, and said: "Today's battle with the Great Sage has benefited Nezha greatly, and I should have stopped fighting and had a good drink with the Great Sage. However, Nezha was ordered to capture Sun Wukong, the Great Sage, so even though he knew he was no match for the Great Sage, he still needed to make an end with him. Unfortunately, his second brother is not here today, otherwise, he would have been able to accompany the Great Sage in a fierce battle."

  Lei Hao's face turned serious, and he solemnly held up his sword to salute Nezha before saying: "Today, I fought with the Third Prince, and Lei Hao gained a lot. With the Third Prince's abilities, originally Lei Hao should have welcomed him with open arms and had a good exchange, but unfortunately Sun Wukong is Lei Hao's close friend, so even if Sun Wukong did something wrong, Lei Hao still can't let the Third Prince get his way. However, Lei Hao guarantees that if the Third Prince falls under Lei Hao's sword, Lei Hao will definitely give him a chance to save face!"

  Nezha said, his delicate eyebrows raised, "If Nezha were to win against the Great Sage, it would be a victory for the Great Sage as well. He wouldn't let those wine sacks and rice bags tarnish the Great Sage's lifelong reputation."

  After finishing speaking, a fairy and a demon looked at each other for several moments, suddenly bursting into laughter simultaneously, a feeling of mutual appreciation appeared in their hearts.

  After one breath, both the demon and the immortal made their moves at the same time.

  Nezha suddenly shouted: "Overturn the seas and rivers!" The large spear in his hand shook violently, and with all his might, he thrust it out. The fire-tipped spear instantly became like a mad dragon emerging from the sea, bringing with it a shocking roar as it pierced towards Lei Hao. As the long spear shot out, space itself was twisted into a ball, and on the ground hundreds of feet away from the fire-tipped spear, a deep and bottomless trench suddenly appeared. In the sky above, the dark clouds were split apart like they had been cut by a knife, revealing a gap several meters wide. All of this was brought about by Nezha's powerful aura, which was evident in this single spear thrust.

  Lei Hao gazed at Nezha, his face suddenly flushed with a fierce and violent aura. He raised the Dragon Slayer high into the air, channeling all of his bodily strength and spiritual energy to build up momentum. This momentum reached its peak in an instant, and then Lei Hao's face turned beet red as he let out a thunderous roar: "Break the Waves!" The Dragon Slayer slowly descended from top to bottom. In that instant, a purple-red blade aura enveloped the Dragon Slayer, condensing into a tangible entity that shot towards Nezha with unrelenting ferocity. The blade's wild and violent energy destroyed all eighteen layers of the Heavenly Net cast by the Heavenly Court, even shattering the gate of the Heavenly Army's camp into fragments without any apparent reason.

  Looking at Nezha's spear and Lei Hao's knife, everyone in the field, whether they were heavenly soldiers or heavenly generals, or demon kings, was shocked. The Four Heavenly Kings tightly held Li Jing, who was struggling to move back, and even Sun Wukong hastily threw out his golden hoop rod, transforming it into a hundreds-of-zhang-long elliptical metal city wall that protected the mountain stronghold.
