Journey to the West: Man in heaven, working nine to five

#2408 - The higher the virtue, the higher the evil

Chu Jin naturally knew that Chu Hao would not let the matter rest after they captured Tang Sanzang and his disciples, and he would definitely come to demand their release.

Therefore, Chu Jin had already mobilized the demon forces and prepared for the confrontation, but he did not expect that it was not Chu Hao who came.

"It is Taishang Laojun who is leading the Heavenly Court army."

Hearing the report from the soldiers, Chu Jin was somewhat confused.

"Why isn't it Chu Hao who came, but Taishang Laojun? Has he taken the wrong medicine?"

Although Taishang Laojun had a very high status in the Heavenly Court, he had always stayed in the Tushita Palace to refine pills and concoct medicines, and he had never been heard of leading the Heavenly Court soldiers on an expedition.

However, Chu Jin could not afford to think too much at this time, because Taishang Laojun had already led an army of 100,000 from the Heavenly Court and lined up in formation in front of the Demon Clan's garrison.

The Heavenly Court army beat gongs and drums, creating a remarkable momentum as they challenged the Demon Clan.

"Evil villains of the Demon Clan, come out quickly!"

"Hand over Tang Sanzang immediately, or we will obliterate your Demon Clan and raze your lair to the ground!"

"Demon Emperor, come out quickly and fight our Dao Ancestor!"

Hearing such shouts and curses, Chu Jin naturally could not sit still.

"Tang Sanzang, you guys rest here first, I will go and meet those shrimp soldiers and crab generals of the Heavenly Court and see what they are capable of."

As Chu Jin spoke, he summoned Maitreya Buddha and other core members of the Demon Clan and came to the front of the Demon Clan's garrison.

Seeing Chu Jin come out, Taishang Laojun put on an arrogant look, stepped out of the formation, and pointed at Chu Jin.

"Evil villains of the Demon Clan, quickly send Tang Sanzang and the others out, and I can consider sparing your lives.

If you are stubborn and unyielding, then don't blame me for being ruthless. Today will be the day your Demon Clan is exterminated."

Taishang Laojun was, after all, the Dao Ancestor, and his pretense of power was still quite sufficient.

"Taishang Laojun, you are just a cattle herder and pill refiner. Now you dare to come to our Demon Clan to provoke us? Could it be that there is no one left in your Heavenly Court?"

If it were Chu Hao, Chu Jin would still have some concerns.

After all, Chu Hao was not only strong, but his scheming was even better than Chu Jin's, and he had suffered losses at his hands several times.

But as for Taishang Laojun, his strength alone was not enough to make Chu Jin fear him. As for Taishang Laojun's scheming, although Chu Jin had never dealt with him, he was not completely ignorant.

Although it is said that old people become cunning, Taishang Laojun had always been arrogant and regarded himself as the Dao Ancestor. How could such a person have any schemes?

"Bold evil villain of the Demon Clan, today I will let you know how powerful I am!"

Chu Jin's sarcasm made Taishang Laojun couldn't help but become furious, and he took the initiative to step forward to fight Chu Jin.

"That depends on whether you have the ability to do so."

Chu Jin smiled slightly and flew out to meet Taishang Laojun. In a moment, the two formed a confrontational situation in the air.

Taishang Laojun looked at Chu Jin, flicked the horsetail whisk in his hand, and shouted.

"Dao!"

As a Saint Realm expert, Taishang Laojun naturally had his own artistic conception, and his artistic conception was Dao.

What is Dao? The so-called Earth follows Heaven, Heaven follows Dao, and Dao follows Nature!

With the word Dao, Taishang Laojun's Dao artistic conception had already unfolded, putting pressure on Chu Jin.

However, Chu Jin did not have the slightest worry about Taishang Laojun's Dao artistic conception.

"Taishang Laojun, don't you know that the Dao is one foot high, and the Demon is ten feet high?"

"Your Dao artistic conception, in essence, is restrained by my Demon artistic conception."

"So, if you want to use artistic conception attacks to put pressure on me, wouldn't that be a big mistake?"

Chu Jin laughed loudly, and at the same time, his Demon artistic conception also unfolded.

Dao and Demon are indeed opposites. Dao follows Nature, which can be understood as Dao being the law of Nature, a kind of law.

And Demon, there is the saying that Demons are born from the heart, so Demon is actually a kind of nature.

If Dao is compared to a kind of law restraint, then Demon is a kind of nature breakthrough.

This relationship ebbs and flows, Dao is upright, Demon is varied, they restrain each other, and they eliminate each other.

Reflected in the battle of artistic conceptions, Taishang Laojun's Dao artistic conception is like a restraining force, while Chu Jin's Demon artistic conception is like a raging storm.

The battle of artistic conceptions between the two was very fierce.

In terms of the intensity of the two people's artistic conceptions, Taishang Laojun was, after all, a Primordial Saint, slightly better, but Chu Jin was not at all at a disadvantage.

Because this was the Demon Clan's lair, the land of the Demon Clan, the surrounding demonic energy was monstrous, making Chu Jin's artistic conception stronger by three points out of thin air, and Taishang Laojun's weaker by three points.

"It seems that you have been idle in the Heavenly Court for too long, only raising cattle and refining pills, and your cultivation has declined."

"Your Dao is already outdated, how can it compare to my Demon's freedom?"

Chu Jin continued to ridicule and provoke Taishang Laojun, with a strong sense of insult in his words.

Taishang Laojun had always been in a transcendent position. When had he ever been insulted and ridiculed like this? The anger in his heart had reached its peak.

"Chu Jin, if I don't defeat you today, I swear I won't give up!"

Taishang Laojun shouted angrily, as if making a vow.

At this time, in the Prison God Hall, Chu Hao was also watching the battle between Taishang Laojun and Chu Jin.

Seeing Taishang Laojun so furious, he couldn't help but shake his head repeatedly.

"If we only talk about strength, Taishang Laojun will not lose to Chu Jin. Chu Jin is just trying his best, and he can only fight Taishang Laojun to a draw."

"But when it comes to scheming, Taishang Laojun is not good. He has been living in comfort for too long, and he can't even see that Chu Jin is deliberately trying to anger him."

"Once he is in a state of rage for a long time, his Dao heart will be unstable. Artistic conception, to put it bluntly, actually comes from the heart. If the Dao heart is unstable, the artistic conception will naturally be greatly weakened."

"Taishang Laojun has already shown signs of defeat as soon as he made a move in this battle."

Chu Hao made his own evaluation and said that he didn't need to watch any further.

"Taishang Laojun's failure is already a foregone conclusion, so we don't need to pay attention to it. After his defeat, his only choice is to come to me for help.

At that time, he will not only hand over the Nine Dragons Golden Staff to me obediently, but I will also make him bleed heavily. This old guy is very rich."

Chu Hao said with a big laugh, while talking, he continued to drink and chat with Sun Wukong.

Indeed, as Chu Hao said, Chu Jin was deliberately trying to anger Taishang Laojun and disrupt his Dao heart.

Seeing Taishang Laojun so furious, Chu Jin couldn't help but show a smug look on his face.

"Taishang Laojun, your coming here this time is to establish prestige for my Demon Clan and let my Demon Clan defeat the Heavenly Court!"

If the Demon Clan could defeat the Heavenly Court army, it would inevitably greatly increase the prestige of the Demon Clan. How could this not make Chu Jin proud!
