Chapter 206: Crushing Tongbi Yuanhou

"Senior brother, what are you saying? I am single-mindedly devoted to the Buddha; how could I have any involvement with that Wanyao Nüguo?"

Even though Tongbi Yuanhou had already entered the demon path, he still did not want to have any involvement with the demon world.

Even though Huangmei Laozu had already begged for the Ten Thousand Demon Golden Pill for him! Hearing his junior brother say this, a subtle, ambiguous smile appeared on Huangmei Laozu's face, "It doesn't matter, junior brother; since you say so, I believe you."

"This is the Ten Thousand Demon Golden Pill. Once you swallow it, you will possess the ability to reach the heavens and encompass the earth."

"At that time, all the gods and Buddhas of the heavens will be yours to devour in a single thought."

A smile played on Huangmei Laozu's face, "That so-called Sun Wukong will never be your match again!"

"Good!"

Looking at the Ten Thousand Demon Golden Pill in Huangmei Laozu's hand, Tongbi Yuanhou stopped thinking about what he had said, snatched the golden pill directly, and stuffed it into his belly.

In an instant, thunder rumbled. The entire sky quietly changed color.

Countless bolts of lightning gathered, as if to erase Tongbi Yuanhou, this world-defying great demon that heaven and earth could not tolerate.

He bathed in the lightning, a look of wild arrogance appearing on his monkey face.

"Hahaha, Sun Wukong, this time, I will definitely trample you completely under my feet!"

He murmured to himself, then spoke to Huangmei Laozu at his side: "Senior brother, wait a moment, I will go and capture Sun Wukong right now!"

Before Huangmei Laozu could react, the figure of Tongbi Yuanhou had already vanished into a patch of lightning.

Far away in the west, Ye Ming looked at the suddenly changing sky and said to Tang Sanzang and the others beside him: "Tongbi Yuanhou, he is here!"

On a day when the winds and clouds were shifting, rolling black clouds surged in the sky, as if foretelling that a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering great battle was about to arrive.

Above the western mountain peak, this mysterious land filled with power became the battlefield for a life-and-death struggle between the Zhang Weijian version of Sun Wukong and the Guo Zhenghong version of the Arm-Armed Ape.

Ye Ming, clad in golden armor and a saintly robe, holding the Golden Cudgel, stood majestically at the Peak of Huaguoshan.

His eyes revealed determination and confidence, burning with an unyielding flame. The Golden Cudgel flashed with a dazzling light in his hand, as if it had merged with his soul. In his heart, there was only one belief: to defeat Tongbi Yuanhou and protect Huaguoshan and everything he cherished.

Tongbi Yuanhou, his form as huge as a mountain peak, had fur as black as ink, radiating an evil aura. After swallowing the Ten Thousand Demon Golden Pill, his magic power surged, and he possessed incomparably great strength. The Heaven-Propping Pillar in his hand shone with an eerie light, as if it could destroy everything that stood in his path.

His eyes were filled with madness and ambition; he craved to defeat Sun Wukong and become the hegemon of heaven and earth.

Around the battlefield, mountain peaks stood tall, giant rocks tumbled down, and trees swayed in the gale. The air was filled with the thick smell of gunpowder and the tense atmosphere of battle. Ye Ming felt the powerful aura of Tongbi Yuanhou, but he was not afraid at all, and a surge of heroic spirit rose in his heart.

"Tongbi Yuanhou, today is the day of your defeat and death!" Ye Ming shouted loudly, his voice ringing like thunder.

Tongbi Yuanhou let out a wild laugh: "Sun Wukong, you are nothing but a defeated opponent of mine! Today I will make you disappear completely!"

Saying this, Tongbi Yuanhou brandished the Heaven-Propping Pillar and charged fiercely toward Ye Ming. His speed was extremely fast, like a black bolt of lightning; wherever he went, rocks shattered and the earth shook.

Seeing this, Ye Ming did not retreat in the slightest; he stepped on the Somersault Cloud and met him head-on. The Golden Cudgel and the Heaven-Propping Pillar collided violently in mid-air, emitting a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering roar. Sparks flew in all directions, and the light was dazzling, as if the entire world were trembling at this very moment.

Tongbi Yuanhou unleashed his powerful strength, attempting to suppress Ye Ming. But Ye Ming was no ordinary person; he gritted his teeth and resisted with all his might. The Golden Cudgel danced like the wind in his hands, every swing carrying unparalleled power.

"Eat a blow from Old Sun!" Ye Ming shouted, and the Golden Cudgel transformed into a golden ray of light, smashing fiercely toward Tongbi Yuanhou.

Tongbi Yuanhou dodged to the side, avoiding this fatal strike. He gave a ferocious grin and launched another attack. His attacks came like a rainstorm, leaving Ye Ming somewhat overwhelmed.

Ye Ming was secretly shocked; Tongbi Yuanhou's strength was indeed not to be underestimated. But he had no intention of retreating; instead, it further ignited his fighting spirit. His eyes became sharper, and every movement was filled with power.

In the intense battle, Ye Ming suddenly discovered a flaw in Tongbi Yuanhou. He seized the opportunity, leaped up suddenly, and raised the Golden Cudgel high, smashing it toward the top of Tongbi Yuanhou's head.

Tongbi Yuanhou was caught off guard and was struck, staggering backward. A trace of terror flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by madness again.

"Sun Wukong, don't you think you can defeat me!" Tongbi Yuanhou roared, lunging at Ye Ming once more.

Ye Ming steadied himself and engaged in a new round of fierce fighting with Tongbi Yuanhou. Their figures darted across the battlefield, leaving a trail of devastation wherever they went. The shockwaves of the battle continued to spread, destroying everything in the vicinity.

As the battle continued, Ye Ming gradually gained the upper hand. Every one of his attacks made it difficult for Tongbi Yuanhou to parry. Tongbi Yuanhou began to panic, but he was still unwilling to accept defeat just like that.

"Sun Wukong, you wretched monkey, today I will definitely make you die without a burial place!" Tongbi Yuanhou said through gritted teeth.

Ye Ming laughed heartily: "Tongbi Yuanhou, you are merely making a futile struggle!"

Just at this moment, Tongbi Yuanhou suddenly unleashed a finishing move. His body erupted with a mass of black light, within which countless vengeful spirits could be vaguely seen struggling. This power was so strong that even Ye Ming felt a palpitation in his heart.

Ye Ming secretly cried out that it was bad; he knew this was Tongbi Yuanhou's final gamble. He took a deep breath and gathered all his strength into the Golden Cudgel.

"Come, let us decide life and death!" Ye Ming shouted loudly.

The two collided again, and this collision was more intense than any before. The light emitted by the Golden Cudgel and the Heaven-Propping Pillar intertwined, forming a brilliant screen of light. Within the light, the figures of Sun Wukong and Tongbi Yuanhou were visible and then hidden, their expressions filled with determination.

At this critical moment, Ye Ming suddenly felt a mysterious power surge from the bottom of his heart. This power invigorated his spirit, and his eyes became even more determined.

"Break for me!" Ye Ming shouted, and the Golden Cudgel erupted with unprecedented power, instantly shattering Tongbi Yuanhou's Heaven-Propping Pillar. Tongbi Yuanhou let out a miserable scream, his body flying backward. He fell heavily to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Ye Ming slowly descended to the ground, looking at the fallen Tongbi Yuanhou, his heart filled with the joy of victory. But he did not lower his guard, because he knew that Tongbi Yuanhou had not been completely defeated yet.

Tongbi Yuanhou struggled to crawl up from the ground, his eyes filled with unwillingness and resentment.

"Sun Wukong, you won... but I will not give up just like this..." After saying this, Tongbi Yuanhou turned into a wisp of black smoke and disappeared.

Ye Ming watched the direction in which Tongbi Yuanhou had vanished, breathing a sigh of relief in his heart. This great battle had finally ended, and he had successfully protected Huaguoshan and everything he cherished.

On the battlefield, the smoke of battle gradually dissipated, leaving only a scene of devastation. Ye Ming stood there, recalling this thrilling battle, his heart filled with many emotions. He knew that more challenges would await him in the future, but he was fearless, because he was Sun Wukong, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven of Huaguoshan!

In that distant heaven and earth, the fierce battle between Sun Wukong and Tongbi Yuanhou came to an end.

With his invincible strength and firm will, Ye Ming finally defeated Tongbi Yuanhou. He sent this former formidable enemy to Maitreya Buddha, hoping that Tongbi Yuanhou could receive the punishment and reflection he deserved.

Maitreya Buddha compassionately took Tongbi Yuanhou and placed him into the Dharma Treasure, the Two-Pole Gourd. One side of this Two-Pole Gourd contained ten-thousand-year heavenly fire, which could make those placed within it suffer through torment and unbearable pain. Tongbi Yuanhou was imprisoned in this gourd, his heart filled with unwillingness and resentment.

However, the twists of fate are often unexpected. By a stroke of luck, a Crow Demon picked up this discarded Two-Pole Gourd. She did not know the origin or power of this gourd, only feeling that it was a rare treasure. When she heard that Tongbi Yuanhou was trapped inside the gourd, a trace of curiosity and greed could not help but well up in her heart.

Tongbi Yuanhou sensed the presence of the Crow Demon, and he began to use all his skills, attempting to persuade the Crow Demon to release him. He told the Crow Demon of his grievances and unwillingness, painting a picture of his future grand ambitions, making the Crow Demon develop sympathy and fantasies about him.

The Crow Demon was not a kind-hearted person to begin with; she was bewitched by Tongbi Yuanhou's honeyed words and gradually had a change of heart. She began to look for various ways to open this Two-Pole Gourd and release Tongbi Yuanhou.

After some effort, the Crow Demon finally found a way to open the gourd. She carefully lifted the gourd lid, and a powerful force instantly surged out. Tongbi Yuanhou flew out from the gourd, his eyes flashing with the flames of revenge, his heart filled with hatred for Sun Wukong and Maitreya Buddha.

Seeing Tongbi Yuanhou regain his freedom, the Crow Demon felt both excited and nervous. Tongbi Yuanhou looked at the Crow Demon gratefully and made all sorts of promises to her. He told the Crow Demon that as long as she helped him, he would definitely make her the most powerful existence in this heaven and earth.

The Crow Demon was bewitched by Tongbi Yuanhou's words; she followed Tongbi Yuanhou without hesitation and became his accomplice. Tongbi Yuanhou began to plan his revenge, wanting to make Sun Wukong and Maitreya Buddha pay the price for what they had done to him in the past.

Tongbi Yuanhou knew well that his strength was not yet enough to confront Sun Wukong head-on; he needed to find more powerful strength to improve himself. He traveled everywhere looking for various Dharma Treasures and secret manuals, constantly cultivating and improving his abilities.

In this process, Tongbi Yuanhou made the acquaintance of some demons and ghosts; hearing of Tongbi Yuanhou's fame, they came one after another to join him. Tongbi Yuanhou's influence gradually grew, and his ambition also expanded more and more.

At the same time, Tongbi Yuanhou, who had swallowed the Ten Thousand Demon Golden Pill, also found an opportunity to swallow a group of experts, all of them, into his own belly.

At the same time, Sun Wukong sensed the escape of Tongbi Yuanhou. He knew well the danger of Tongbi Yuanhou and decided to engage him in a life-and-death struggle once more. Sun Wukong searched everywhere for the tracks of Tongbi Yuanhou, but found nothing at all.

Tongbi Yuanhou used his own wisdom and cunning to continuously evade the tracking of Ye Ming. He secretly plotted various conspiracies, wanting to deal a fatal blow to Sun Wukong.

By a chance opportunity, Tongbi Yuanhou learned news of Tieshan Gongzhu and Niu Mowang. A vicious plan surged in his heart; he would use the crow spirit to take revenge on Tieshan Gongzhu and Niu Mowang, while simultaneously attracting the attention of Sun Wukong, leaving him no time to concern himself with his own actions.

The crow spirit followed the plan of Tongbi Yuanhou and launched an attack on Tieshan Gongzhu and Niu Mowang. Tieshan Gongzhu and Niu Mowang were caught off guard and were beaten back step by step by the crow spirit. After Ye Ming learned of this matter, he rushed over to rescue them.

Tongbi Yuanhou took the opportunity to hide in the shadows, waiting for the best moment. When Ye Ming was in the midst of a fierce battle with Tieshan Gongzhu and Niu Mowang, Tongbi Yuanhou suddenly appeared and launched a sneak attack on Sun Wukong.

Ye Ming was caught off guard and was struck by the attack of Tongbi Yuanhou. He was startled, realizing that the strength of Tongbi Yuanhou had already greatly improved. He dared not be careless and engaged in a fierce battle with Tongbi Yuanhou with all his might.

Tongbi Yuanhou and Ye Ming traded blows, neither giving an inch. Their battle stirred up gusts of wild wind, and the world seemed to be shaken by their power. The crow spirit cheered for Tongbi Yuanhou from the sidelines, his heart filled with smugness.

However, Sun Wukong was, after all, the Great Saint Equal to Heaven, and his strength could not be underestimated. After a fierce contest, Ye Ming gradually gained the upper hand. Seeing the situation was unfavorable, Tongbi Yuanhou once again employed a trick and escaped the pursuit of Ye Ming.

Ye Ming watched the retreating back of Tongbi Yuanhou, his heart filled with worry. He knew that the escape of Tongbi Yuanhou was only temporary; he would certainly return to stir up trouble again and bring even greater problems upon him.

After Tongbi Yuanhou escaped, he continued his conspiracies. Together with the crow spirit, he went everywhere stirring up trouble, bringing endless disasters to the human world. The common people lived in deep misery and were in unspeakable pain.

After Ye Ming learned of this, his heart was filled with anger. He decided to engage in a decisive battle with Tongbi Yuanhou once more to completely eliminate this evil existence. He searched everywhere for the tracks of Tongbi Yuanhou, while also continuously improving his own strength.

Through the efforts of Ye Ming, he finally found the hiding place of Tongbi Yuanhou. A soul-stirring great battle was about to erupt, and Ye Ming and Tongbi Yuanhou once again engaged in a life-and-death contest...

In this long battle, Ye Ming and Tongbi Yuanhou displayed tenacious will and powerful strength. Every one of their attacks made the heavens and earth tremble, and every collision made people's hearts race with fear.

In the end, relying on his firm conviction and unyielding spirit, Ye Ming defeated Tongbi Yuanhou once again. Under the heavy blows of Ye Ming, Tongbi Yuanhou completely lost the ability to resist.

However, just as Ye Ming was preparing to deliver the final blow to Tongbi Yuanhou, a mysterious power suddenly appeared and rescued Tongbi Yuanhou.

Ye Ming gazed at that retreating figure, his heart filled with doubt and confusion.

He did not know where this mysterious power came from, nor did he know if Tongbi Yuanhou would appear again.

From afar, Ye Ming only saw that figure reveal a snake tail as black as ink yet shining with a brilliant luster.

He whispered softly, "The Wanyao Queen?"

"It seems this mission is indeed related to you all..."

"This is getting interesting..."
