Chapter 1120: Demon King

~8 min read 1,579 words

"This Beiju Luzhou is truly..."

Su Fan looked down at several living beings engaged in a bloody slaughter over a Wan-year Vermilion Fruit.

Of course, a Wan-year Vermilion Fruit could indeed be considered a decent treasure of heaven and earth, but it was at most useful to Earth Immortals or Heavenly Immortals; once one's cultivation reached the True Immortal level, a Wan-year Vermilion Fruit was merely fruit, and for the current Su Fan, it did not even count as fruit.

The slaughter visible everywhere in this Beiju Luzhou also displeased Su Fan.

Mere slaughter also caused the baleful aura of this place to accumulate more and more.

Moreover, it was not just the infighting between local beings; Su Fan also saw that the fighting between outsiders and local beings was increasing as well.

"Eh! Who is this old ox?"

After wandering around Beiju Luzhou for a long time, Su Fan suddenly discovered the figure of an old ox, who was currently being hunted by several members of the Holy Elephant Clan.

Calculating with his fingers, Su Fan instantly smiled.

"I didn't expect it to be him."

In the Three Realms, there are many ox demons, but not many who can truly cultivate with virtue.

However, the status of ox demons in the Three Realms is not low.

The reason for this is that among the ox demons, a few old oxen have appeared who became mounts for Saints, such as the mount of Lao Jun, and the mount of Tongtian Shengren, and so on.

As a mount for a Saint, it goes without saying that their cultivation is also not low.

Of course, it was clear that this old ox before him was not Lao Jun's mount, but his identity was also not simple; he was none other than the future monkey's sworn brother, Niu Mowang.

"But this old ox isn't in Xiniu Hezhou; I didn't expect him to have come to this Beiju Luzhou?"

Su Fan was somewhat surprised; the old ox's current cultivation was not bad, having already reached Golden Immortal Peak.

Niu Mowang also possessed a certain amount of Qi of Luck, and later, by swearing brotherhood with the monkey and the others, he stirred up quite a storm; the Seven Great Sages had high cultivation and gathered a certain amount of influence.

For this reason, he even had a confrontation with the Heavenly Court.

Of course, the Seven Great Sages had very resounding titles, but what about their true strength?

The strength of the Seven Great Sages was about the same, all around the Golden Immortal level, though it was also possible they were Taiyi Golden Immortals.

Niu Mowang was currently at Golden Immortal Peak, and in the future, when the Seven Great Sages united, as the leader, it was clearly impossible for his strength to be only Golden Immortal.

Among the seven Demon Kings, if one were to speak of potential, it would be the monkey, Niu Mowang, and that Jiao Mowang, and that Jiao Mowang had the Demon Master Palace standing vaguely behind him.

Of the current Seven Great Sages, Niu Mowang was only one Demon King, while that Jiao Mowang had already begun to make a name for himself in the Four Seas, even suppressing the Xihai Dragon King in the West Sea to the point of misery.

Among the Four Seas Dragon Kings, only the Donghai Dragon King had any real strength; to call the other three useless would not be an exaggeration.

Aside from Karma, these individuals themselves lacked any drive for self-improvement.

After all, as Dragon Kings, not many people dared to provoke them, and even if there were provocateurs, such as this Jiao Mowang, they actually only suppressed them and would not kill the other party.

After all, those whose cultivation truly exceeded the Four Seas Dragon Kings did not have low cultivation; at the very least, they were Golden Immortals, and those with Golden Immortal cultivation were not ignorant people.

Even if the Four Seas Dragon Kings were very useless, they were not people they could just slaughter; if they were truly killed, wouldn't the Dragon Clan riot?

Jiao Mowang suppressed the Xihai Dragon King in the West Sea until he was in a sorry state, but that was all; attacking the Xihai Dragon King was impossible.

But this revealed Jiao Mowang's potential and strength.

In the Four Seas, the sea-dwelling beings were no worse than those on land, but those who dared to stand up and provoke the Dragon Clan were still very few and far between.

Even if some had strength exceeding the Four Seas Dragon Kings, the majesty of the Dragon Clan still made them afraid to take excessive actions.

Jiao Mowang dared to take action to suppress the Xihai Dragon Palace; relying on himself alone, he had the strength, but it was certainly not enough, and without a background, did he really think the Dragon Clan had no one?

Jiao Mowang's strength had not reached Great Luo Golden Immortal; at most, he was currently only a Taiyi Golden Immortal, and the Dragon Clan's Great Luo Golden Immortal, Longmu, was still around, and furthermore, it was not as if the Dragon Clan lacked Taiyi Golden Immortals.

The foundation of the Dragon Clan was far beyond what ordinary factions could compare to.

Since Jiao Mowang had always lived well and the Dragon Clan had not killed him to warn the others, it was clear that this Jiao Mowang had a faction behind him, and it was not simple.

And as for those who dared not fear the Dragon Clan, the first thing Su Fan thought of was the Demon Master Palace in Beihai.

That Demon Master indeed had sufficient confidence.

First of all, the strength of Demon Master Kunpeng was not bad; even if he was not a match for that Zhulong of the Dragon Clan, he would not be far behind.

Compared to those Great Supernatural Beings, the most this Demon Master lacked were Dharma treasures.

He could not even compare to Hongyun and Randeng; Randeng at least had his companion spiritual treasure, the Coffin Lid, as well as that high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Spirit Coffin Lamp.

Hongyun also had that Gourd.

But Demon Master Kunpeng was simply very poor; perhaps he also had Innate Spiritual Treasures, but with his level of cultivation, other Great Supernatural Beings either had one or two high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures or Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures.

And Kunpeng had none.

As for the River Chart and Luo Book that were snatched later, they were clearly taken by Fuxi.

But regardless, his strength was not bad, and the Demon Master Palace later took away a group of Demon Gods and Demon Saints from the Demon Court, so their strength was also not bad.

Previously, the Demon Master Palace had also been competing with the Dragon Clan for interests in the sea territories.

It was reasonable for Jiao Mowang to have the Demon Master Palace standing behind him.

Of course, this was Su Fan's speculation, but it was likely quite accurate.

As for Jiao Mowang later taking the title of Sea-Covering Great Sage, it was clearly still aimed at the Four Seas.

However, to be able to suppress a True Dragon until he was in a sorry state with the body of a flood dragon, it was clear that this Jiao Mowang's potential and ability were not bad, no worse than Niu Mowang's.

Niu Mowang being able to have his current strength also had to do with the Qi of Luck of the ox demon race.

When the Demon Court was still in existence, the ox demons were considered a major clan within the Demon Court, and on top of that, the ox demon race produced many mounts for those Great Supernatural Beings.

Do not underestimate a Saint's mount; they were closer to the Saints than the disciples, and their strength was absolutely not bad.

In Journey to the West, Lao Jun's mount descended to the mortal world, leaving the numerous immortals and gods of the Heavenly Court helpless; it is possible that there was an element of acting involved.

And he was holding the Diamond Bracelet, beating many immortals and gods until they were helpless; this might also have been acting.

But if we are talking about the truth, the monkey and the others really did not have higher cultivation than that old ox.

As for the immortals and gods being helpless, the element of acting was greater.

Could those immortals and gods really not recognize the old ox's identity? Even if the monkey could not recognize it, there was no reason for the other immortals and gods not to.

Furthermore, that Diamond Bracelet—could it be that no one recognized it?

The Diamond Bracelet of Lord Lao is famous throughout the Three Realms; logically speaking, since the Monkey was also knocked unconscious by this Diamond Bracelet back then, there is no reason he would not recognize it.

The greater possibility is that even if they recognized it, they all went along with the act.

Perhaps the Monkey of that time might have already discovered something; the Monkey himself was very clever, and if he didn't understand at first, it was only because his experience was too limited.

After all, the time since he had come into the world was too short, and his understanding of the Three Realms was not deep, which was why he caused so many jokes.
