Chapter 241 Ten Heavenly Lords

In the early morning of the East China Sea, the sky was just beginning to turn pale, the rising sun gradually jumped out of the sea level, and the golden light sprinkled on the sea, as if covering the sea with a layer of golden gauze.

The fairy islands and sacred mountains are looming in the sea fog, like phantoms in a fairyland, mysterious and charming.

The sea was sparkling, and occasionally rare birds and animals were playing in the sea, causing ripples and disturbing the tranquility of the early morning.

The island is shrouded in mist, with pavilions and towers faintly visible, ancient trees towering into the sky, and secluded paths leading to secluded places, like a paradise on earth. The gurgling mountain streams, the clear and pleasant sound of water, interweaving with the singing of birds and insects into a natural symphony.

There are many immortals in the East China Sea.

Immortals wearing flowing robes can be seen everywhere, standing on mountain tops or sitting in the clouds. They close their eyes and meditate, absorbing the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

Sometimes, a few figures pass through the clouds, as if walking in the air, with graceful postures, making people wonder whether this is the human world or fairyland.

As the sun rose higher, the fog on the sea gradually dissipated, and the overall picture of the fairy island gradually became clear.

The entire island is huge, comparable to land, and shaped like a giant turtle. This is Jin'ao Island, known as the No. 1 Island in the East China Sea.

The island is filled with the fragrance of flowers, and various exotic plants are blooming in colorful colors and fragrant.

The immortals were picking magical herbs and flowers, some were washing their hands by the stream, and some were drinking tea and discussing philosophy by the stone table. The immortal aura on them blended with the surrounding scenery, forming beautiful pictures.

In the blue sea, schools of fish play, leaping out of the water, casting a string of water droplets, sparkling with charming light. In the emerald green forests, the fragrance of flowers is overflowing, and all kinds of flowers are blooming, exuding an attractive fragrance.

The fairy herbs, Ganoderma lucidum, thousand-year-old ginseng and other magical herbs on the fairy island appear particularly beautiful and attractive under the sunlight.

The island is filled with gurgling water and clear springs. The springs cascade down from the mountains, forming a waterfall. The scattered water droplets are like strings of crystal beads, emitting a charming luster.

In the distance, the mountains are close to each other, lush and green. At the foot of the mountain, bees are flying and wild animals are playing, forming a picture of the mountains.

From time to time, the screams of monkeys could be heard on the mountainside, as the monkey kings fought for supremacy, displaying their wild power.

A huge white ape sat high on the top of the mountain, with sharp eyes and a ferocious look, like a stone sculpture, exuding majesty and authority.

At this time, a melodious flute sound came from afar. A handsome Taoist in a white robe was holding a jade flute. The notes spread as he played, like the sound of nature.

The flute sounds melodious and the notes linger like flowing spring water, making people intoxicated.

Suddenly, he stopped playing and looked up at the sea in the distance.

I saw a black light flying towards me at a very fast speed.

Wen Zhong rode the black unicorn through the air, bringing with him a sharp sound of wind, and headed straight for Jin'ao Island. The body of this strange beast was huge and mysterious, and its entire body was as black as ink, with only the flames on its four hooves being bright red, like a meteor in the night sky, breaking through the silent morning light.

The immortals on the island felt this powerful aura and looked up. When they saw the knight on the black unicorn, they all showed surprise.

The Taoist in white robe turned around and shot a lightning-like gaze at Wen Zhong.

He has a tall figure, handsome face, and a white robe fluttering in the wind. He looks elegant and refined.

"Wen Zhong, why are you here in such a hurry?" Bai Li Tianjun's voice was clear and as pleasant as a mountain spring.

Wen Zhong raised his head, a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes: "Tian Jun, there are people in the court who are plotting to kill the king and rebel. I led the troops into the court to clear the court of the emperor, but I was stopped by the disciples of the sect.

I have come to Jin'ao Island today to ask the Heavenly Lord to lend me a helping hand."

When Bai Li Tianjun heard this, his brows slightly frowned and he slowly said, "Why would a disciple of the Human Cult get involved? Could it be that Yang Ling again?"

"Yang Ling?" Wen Zhong was a little confused.

"I got the news a few days ago that the Four Saints of Jiulong Island, as well as Lü Yue, Ma Yuan and others in the sect were all killed by Yang Ling, a disciple of the Human Sect."

Bai Li Tianjun said in a deep voice: "If the disciple of the Human Sect who blocked your way is Yang Ling, then we will definitely help you!

It is time to settle all old and new grudges together."

When Wen Zhong heard this, he was excited and a glimmer of hope appeared on his face.

He knew that Bai Li Tianjun was extremely powerful, and if he could get his help, he would be able to turn the tide of the battle.

"Tianjun Baili, the people in Chaoge City are suffering terribly. If the chaos can be quelled soon, they will be spared from further suffering. I hope Tianjun can set off as soon as possible to lend me a helping hand!"

Wen Zhong said in an earnest tone.

Bai Li Tianjun nodded slightly, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes: "Don't worry, since you Wen Zhong sincerely came to ask for help, I will not stand idly by.

I will gather the masters on Jin'ao Island and go to Chaoge City with you to clear the obstacles for Da Shang."

After saying this, Bai Li Tianjun waved his hand, and immediately several immortals in Taoist robes flew out from the clouds and mist and landed beside him.

They all had a dignified bearing and were obviously immortals with profound cultivation.

There were both men and women coming, including Bai Li Tianjun, a total of ten people.

These ten people have a resounding name in the prehistoric world, called the Ten Heavenly Lords of Jin'ao Island.

After listening to Bai Li Tianjun's narration, Qin Wan Tianjun, the leader of the Ten Tianjuns, shook his head slightly. His eyes were as deep as stars, as if he could see through everything in the world.

"Wen Zhong, you came a few years early. According to the deduction of heaven, this chaotic world should not have come so early." Qin Wan Tianjun said slowly, with a bit of helplessness in his voice.

Wen Zhong was shocked when he heard this. Did his arrival disrupt some destiny? But he was soon relieved. The current crisis was the most important thing.

"Your Majesty, no matter what, the people inside and outside Chaoge City are suffering. It will be a blessing for the Shang Dynasty if we can get help from you, Your Majesties." Wen Zhong said anxiously, with anticipation glittering in his eyes.

Qin Wantianjun nodded lightly, his expression solemn: "Since things have come to this, we will naturally not sit idly by. You go ahead, and we will set off immediately after we have reorganized."

When Wen Zhong heard this, he felt relieved and bowed deeply: "Thank you all for your rescue, Wen Zhong thanks you."

"Okay, no need to be so polite. Wen Zhong, go and get ready. We will be there soon." Qin Wantianjun waved his hand, indicating that Wen Zhong could leave.

Wen Zhong thanked him again, then turned around and jumped onto the black unicorn, flying towards Chaoge City as fast as a meteor.

After Wen Zhong's figure disappeared into the sky, Qin Wan Tianjun turned to Bai Li Tianjun and the other eight Tianjuns, with a hint of determination in his eyes: "Although we have many masters on Jin'ao Island, only ten of us are needed to go to Chaoge this time. Everyone, get ready to set off."

As soon as the voice fell, the ten Heavenly Monarchs each offered up a fairy deer. The fur of these fairy deer was crystal clear, their hooves stepped on the wind, and their antlers were wrapped with traces of fairy spirit, which was obviously extraordinary.

The ten Heavenly Kings rode on the fairy deer one after another. The fairy deer's hooves created wind, and they turned into streams of light, flying through the sea of ​​clouds and heading towards the city of Chaoge in the east.

Not long after, Wen Zhong, riding on the black unicorn, cut through the sky like a black lightning and landed in the military camp outside Chaoge City.

His arrival immediately caused a commotion among the soldiers in the camp. They stopped what they were doing and looked at the general who had descended from the sky.

Yu Qing, dressed in military uniform, walked quickly towards them.

His brows were furrowed, and he was obviously worried about the situation in Chaoge City. Seeing Wen Zhong return safely, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "General, is everything going well?"

Wen Zhong nodded, his expression showing some excitement that could not be concealed: "Don't worry. The Ten Heavenly Lords of Jin'ao Island have agreed to lend us a hand, and they will be here soon."

Upon hearing this, Yu Qing's face immediately showed joy. He was well aware of the reputation of the Ten Heavenly Lords. If they joined, this chaotic situation would surely be resolved.

"That's great! With the help of the ten Heavenly Kings, we will surely win a great victory!" Yu Qing said excitedly.

At this moment, a auspicious cloud suddenly appeared in the sky and floated slowly. On the cloud, ten figures with immortal looks were riding on fairy deer, looking leisurely and contented.

Wen Zhong saw this and immediately ordered his soldiers to get busy. They quickly worshipped the incense table and built a high platform to welcome these high-ranking immortals.

The soldiers acted quickly, and in a short while, the platform was built. The incense burner was lit on the table, and wisps of green smoke rose up, contrasting beautifully with the auspicious clouds in the distance.

The immortal deer of the ten Heavenly Kings stepped on the void and landed lightly on the high platform.

Their arrival suddenly made the entire military camp quiet, and everyone's eyes were focused on these high and mighty immortals.

Qin Wan Tianjun was the first to dismount the fairy deer. He stood tall and straight with a sharp gaze as he swept over everyone present.

Wen Zhong hurried forward and bowed deeply to the ten Heavenly Sovereigns: "My Heavenly Sovereigns, the people of Chaoge City are in dire straits. I hope you can take action as soon as possible to quell this chaos."

Qin Wantianjun nodded slightly, his eyes swept across the military camp, as if he could see through the hearts of every soldier.

"Don't worry, since we are here, we will definitely do our best. Now, let's first understand the situation in Chaoge City."

Wen Zhong nodded, and he turned and winked at Yu Qing, who immediately stepped forward and began to report in detail the situation in the city and the enemy's movements.

The ten Heavenly Kings listened, nodding or exchanging opinions from time to time.

They are calm and composed, without any arrogance. They look like sages, which makes people feel confident.

Kong Xuan stood on the wall of Chaoge City, his eyes piercing through the mist, staring at the auspicious cloud that was gradually dispersing above the military camp outside the city. He knew that this must be the reinforcements that Wen Zhong had brought in, and they were definitely not ordinary people.

"Someone come here!" Kong Xuan shouted in a deep voice, and his voice echoed above the city wall.

After a while, several generals in armor came to Kong Xuan and greeted him in unison: "Your Majesty."

Kong Xuan's eyes swept over the generals, "The auspicious clouds that appeared in the military camp outside the city are of great significance. Wen Zhong must have invited strong reinforcements. Do you have any good strategies to deal with this change?"

The generals looked at each other in bewilderment. Zhang Kui spoke first, "Your Majesty, Wen Zhong must be calling for reinforcements. Judging from the momentum of the auspicious clouds, the person who came must be very powerful, perhaps even more powerful than the four generals of the Demon Family before."

Hearing this, Nezha brandished his flaming spear and said with disdain: "If one comes, I'll beat one. If two come, I'll beat two. No matter who comes, I'm not afraid!"

Yang Jian frowned and thought, then said in a deep voice: "We must not underestimate the enemy. We must investigate carefully and find out the specific situation of the enemy.

My father once said, "Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle."

When Kong Xuan heard Yang Jian's words, a trace of appreciation flashed in his eyes: "Your father is right. That's it. Zhang Kui, you should immediately send spies to sneak into the military camp and find out the enemy's situation."

"Yes, sir!" Zhang Kui bowed and accepted the order.

He walked quickly and returned soon.

However, compared to when he left, his breathing was obviously a little faster when he came back, and there was a hint of shock and worry in his expression that was difficult to conceal.

He walked quickly into the command tent, his eyes swept over the generals present, and his voice was steady and urgent: "My king, everyone, I have already found out the enemy's situation. The reinforcements that Wen Zhong requested are none other than the Ten Heavenly Lords of Jin'ao Island!"

When everyone heard this, their faces suddenly changed, and discussions arose one after another. They had more or less heard of the names of the Ten Heavenly Lords of Jin'ao Island. They were the elite disciples of the outer sect of Jiejiao in the prehistoric times, and each of them had great magical powers and unfathomable strength.

Even the weakest among them, the Golden Light Holy Mother, has the cultivation level of a top-grade golden immortal.

Zhang Kui continued, “As far as I know, each of these ten Heavenly Kings has a high level of cultivation, and the weakest has reached the Golden Immortal realm. They are all famous in the prehistoric world, and they are not so easy to deal with.” Li Jing and his wife looked solemn. Although they were also immortals with extraordinary cultivation, they couldn't help but feel worried when facing such a powerful opponent.

Nezha's brows were furrowed. Although he was extremely brave, he also knew that the Ten Heavenly Kings of Jin'ao Island were no ordinary people.

Only Yang Jian remained calm as usual, his eyes were deep, as if he was thinking of a countermeasure. He said softly: "Although the enemy is strong and we are weak, we are not without a chance of winning. We must prepare thoroughly and win with wisdom."

Kong Xuan nodded. He believed in Yang Jian's judgment. After all, Yang Jian was not only an outstanding warrior, but also a meticulous person, which was obvious to all.

"Yang Jian is right, we can't panic. The most important thing now is to stabilize the morale of the army and at the same time formulate targeted response strategies." Kong Xuan said in a deep voice, his words revealing unquestionable determination.

Li Jing stood up and said, "Marshal, my wife and I are willing to go out to fight tomorrow to test the strength of the Ten Heavenly Lords of Jin'ao Island."

Kong Xuan nodded slightly. He knew the strength of Li Jing and his wife. Having them join would indeed increase the chances of winning.

"Okay, Li Jing, it would be a good idea for you and your wife to go out and test the strength of the Ten Heavenly Lords. I will let Yang Jian and Nezha support you then.

Remember, you must not act rashly when facing the Ten Heavenly Lords. If you are defeated, retreat immediately. We still need more preparations and are not in a hurry to decide the winner with them.

By the way, Zhang Kui, you still have to send spies to keep a close eye on the enemy's every move. Nezha and Yang Jian, you two will be responsible for the support.

Do you understand? "

"Yes, sir!" everyone responded in unison.

Outside the tent, the soldiers in the barracks were still busy, sharpening their swords and guns, or building fortifications. Everyone was preparing for the upcoming battle.

The next day.

At dawn, the sound of drums on the plain outside the city was deafening.

Wen Zhong ordered his men to beat drums to challenge him to a fight. The sound of the drums was so loud that it echoed in everyone's hearts like morning and evening bells.

Upon hearing the voice, Kong Xuan's face became solemn, and he ordered Li Jing and his wife to lead their troops out of the city and form a battle formation with Wen Zhong's army outside the city.

The two armies faced off and the atmosphere was tense.

Li Jing and his wife, wearing armor and holding magical weapons, stood majestically in front of the formation.

On the opposite side, the Ten Heavenly Lords of Jin'ao Island, who looked like immortals, followed Wen Zhong on their immortal deer. They looked otherworldly and seemed particularly sacred and inviolable in the sunlight.

Wen Zhong rode on the black unicorn, his eyes swept across at Li Jing, and he shouted angrily: "Li Jing, as a general of the Shang Dynasty, you did not think about protecting the country and the people, but instead pledged allegiance to the traitors who murdered the king and rebelled. Today, my Grand Master is here, and I order you to surrender quickly to avoid more bloodshed!"

Hearing this, Li Jing couldn't help but sneer, his voice full of disdain: "Wen Zhong, are you kidding me? It's obvious that you are the biggest traitor!

As the Grand Master of the Shang Dynasty, you actually led troops to surround the Shang Dynasty's capital, Chaoge City. What is your intention?!"

The war of words between the two sides intensified, and every word was like a sharp arrow, shooting into the other side's heart.

The soldiers present were infected by the atmosphere and gripped their weapons tightly, ready to engage in battle at any time.

At this moment, Qin Wan Tianjun rode a fairy deer and slowly stepped forward from the army. His eyes were calm and deep, as if all the disputes seemed insignificant in his eyes.

"There is no point in talking any more." Qin Wan Tianjun's voice was deep and powerful, echoing throughout the battlefield. "Today's battle is either you die or I die. Wang Bian, you go forward and capture Li Jing."

Following Qin Wan Tianjun's order, a burly Tianjun rode out of the formation on a fairy deer. He held a whisk in his hand and swung it lightly towards Li Jing.

Seeing this, Li Jing did not retreat. He immediately picked up the magic weapon in his hand and went to fight.

Wang Bian rode the fairy deer and took light steps in the air. With a wave of the whisk in his hand, the five elements of magic spells appeared instantly.

The flames burned the earth like the scorching sun, the falling rocks rained down on Li Jing, and the golden sword was like autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves, cutting through the air and flying towards him...

Li Jing was agile and waved the magic weapon in his hand, trying to resist these violent attacks.

Wang Bian's Taoism was superb. Every time he attacked, he could find Li Jing's weakness accurately, making him run around in a panic.

Li Jing tried his best, and the magic weapon in his hand danced out dazzling rays of light, trying to block these magical attacks.

Wang Bian looked calm, as if he didn't take Li Jing seriously.

Every time Li Jing thought he could withstand an attack, Wang Bian's spells would become more fierce, as if he would never get tired.

As the battle intensified, sweat oozed from Li Jing's forehead and his breathing gradually became rapid. Although he was also proficient in the Five Elements Taoism, he still felt unprecedented pressure when facing an opponent of Wang Bian's level.

Just as Li Jing was gradually losing the upper hand and seemed about to be unable to hold on, Yin Shiniang saw her husband's predicament.

She quickly made sword gestures and formed seals with her hands in front of her chest. The fairy sword behind her flew out of the sheath with a "whoosh". As she made sword gestures, the fairy sword split into hundreds of flying swords in the air, like a pouring galaxy, all shooting towards Wang Bian.

The flying swords shone brightly, each of them contained powerful immortal power. They drew graceful arcs in the air, extremely sharp, pointing directly at Wang Bian's vital points.

Wang Bian raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw this, as if he was surprised by Yin Shiniang's sudden attack. He waved the whisk in his hand lightly, and the sky and the earth suddenly changed color. A more powerful force began to gather and met those flying swords.

The two forces collided in the air, making a deafening roar.

The clash between the flying sword and the magic spells was like the collision of two torrents, which caused huge waves and an invisible wave that surged in all directions.

Li Jing saw that Yin Shiniang's flying sword was blocked by Wang Bian's magic, and he became anxious, knowing that he could no longer hold back his strength.

He took a deep breath, formed seals with his hands, and whispered, "The Tao is boundless, and heaven and earth resonate!" As his voice fell, the earth suddenly shook, and countless pillars of fire burst out from the ground like angry dragons. The scorching flames, carrying lava and magma, attacked Wang Bian.

At the same time, Li Jing moved the wind with his mind, and murderous intent was hidden in the wind. Invisible golden blades and ice spikes were formed in the strong wind. Each blade was extremely sharp, and each ice spike was icy cold.

They danced in the wind, turning into deadly attacks and sweeping towards Wang Bian.

Upon seeing this, Yin Shiniang muttered something, and more than a hundred flying swords spun rapidly in the air, gathering into an incomparably huge sword. The sword was a hundred feet long and ten feet wide. The immortal power contained in the sword was so strong that it was suffocating.

"Go!" Yin Shiniang shouted softly, and the giant sword was like a divine weapon that could break the sky and split the earth, cutting through the void, and with endless sword intent and power, it slashed straight towards Wang Bian.

Facing such a fierce attack, Wang Bian's expression finally became solemn. He knew that he could no longer hold back at this moment.

He gently waved the whisk in his hand and muttered something, as if chanting some ancient spell.

As he waved his whisk, a golden circle suddenly appeared around him. Golden light flickered inside the circle, as if countless golden runes were flowing, forming an indestructible barrier.

Pillars of fire, blades, ice spikes and giant swords hit the golden barrier one after another, making a roar, but the barrier did not move at all. The golden light flashed lightly and all the attacks were turned into nothing.

Li Jing and Yin Shiniang felt a chill in their hearts when they saw their attacks being easily blocked.

They knew that Wang Bian's strength was far beyond their imagination.

"It's rude to come and not reciprocate!"

Wang Bian saw that he had easily resolved the attack of Li Jing and his wife, and his expression became more relaxed. Suddenly, a white jade bottle appeared in his hand.

This pure bottle is pure white and as smooth as jade. There are ancient runes carved on the bottle body and it has a faint luster. It looks ordinary, but the power contained in it should not be underestimated.

He gently shook the white jade bottle and hummed softly, as if summoning something.

As he chanted, the lid of the bottle slowly opened, and a stream of red water poured out of the bottle.

The red water fell to the ground without splashing any dust. Instead, it instantly turned into a surging river. The river water was bright red, as if it was formed by the confluence of countless bloods, and it emitted a heart-pounding breath.

When Li Jing and his wife saw this scene, their faces changed suddenly.

The red river was so powerful and vast, as if it had descended from the sky and was sweeping towards them.

In their sight, the red river was hundreds of miles wide, like an insurmountable river in the sky, surrounding them.

Yin Shiniang nervously grabbed Li Jing's hand, and the two looked at each other, seeing the determination in each other's eyes. They knew that now was not the time to be afraid, but to work together to face the crisis in front of them.

Li Jing took a deep breath, raised the magic weapon in his hand above his head, and chanted a spell: "The sky and the earth are dark yellow, the universe is vast and boundless!"

As he spoke, the spiritual light on the magic weapon became brighter, and a powerful force surged out of his body, transforming into colorful rays of light, trying to cut the red river.

Yin Shiniang was not to be outdone. She changed her sword techniques again and swung her hands as fast as plucking the strings of a musical instrument. More than a hundred flying swords gathered together again to form a sword formation. The flying swords in the sword formation flickered like stars, forming complex sword nets, heading towards the surging Red River.

However, the power of the red river was far beyond their imagination. The torrent that almost tore the heaven and earth apart actually swallowed up Li Jing's light and Yin Shiniang's sword net bit by bit, and continued to approach them.

Li Jing and his wife frowned. They knew that it would be difficult for them to resist Wang Bian's move alone.

At this moment, other people on the battlefield also noticed the change. Seeing this, Nezha and Yang Jian immediately flew out and went to support without hesitation.

When Nezha saw that Li Jing and his wife were in danger, he immediately summoned the Hun Tian Ling. The silk made sounds of wind and thunder, and drew lightning-like tracks in the air.

He swung his wrist violently, and the Hun Tian Ling flew out like a spirit snake, quickly wrapping around the waists of Li Jing and his wife, tightly binding them.

"Dad, Mom! Hold on tight!" Nezha shouted, his voice full of urgency.

Li Jing and Yin Shiniang felt the power coming from the Hun Tian Ling. They held on to the ribbon tightly and felt a sense of security.

Nezha pulled hard, trying to drag them out of the raging red river.

At the same time, Yang Jian no longer hesitated. His body was as firm as a mountain. He drew a sword from his waist. The blade flashed with cold light, revealing a fierce murderous aura.

His eyes were sharp and he quickly approached Wang Bian, intending to force him to put away the bottle with his powerful force.

When Wang Bian saw Yang Jian coming towards him, he showed contempt on his face. He seemed to not take this young general Yang Jian seriously.

With a flick of his hand, the golden shield he had just drawn suddenly became brighter, emitting golden light, as if it was going to dissolve Yang Jian's attack into nothingness.

However, Wang Bian obviously underestimated Yang Jian's power.

Yang Jian's sword was like a divine weapon that created the world. With one swing of the sword, it brought endless power and actually broke through the golden light shield. Wherever the blade pointed, the air seemed to be torn apart.

Wang Bian's face turned pale in an instant. He didn't expect that Yang Jian's power was so strong that he could not resist it.

He instinctively reached out to block it, but it was too far away.

With a light "puff" sound, Wang Bian's arm was cut off by Yang Jian's sword, blood splattered, and the white jade bottle flew out of his hand. Wang Bian's face was distorted and he screamed in pain.

The atmosphere on the battlefield became extremely solemn because of this scene, and everyone felt this powerful shocking force.

Nezha took advantage of this opportunity and used all his strength to pull Li Jing and his wife out of the red river. Although their bodies were soaked, they were finally out of danger.
