Journey to the West: Treasure Vase of the Great Dao-Chapter 457 - 230: Battle
The fortune and destiny accumulated by the Human Path can only be imagined, and at this moment, Lu Yu, relying on his identity as a Sage, hooked into this fortune and destiny, immediately causing all cultivators across the three realms to sense it.
A tremendous pressure descended from the heavens, crashing down onto Lion Camel Ridge, and although the Four Demons were prepared, they were still staggered by the formidable pressure.
"Goodness me, thankfully we set up the Array, greatly weakening the interference from the Human Path’s fortune and destiny, or else just this pressure alone would have turned us into cattle and sheep at the mercy of others," Bai Xiang exclaimed in awe.
Even so, they could feel that the whole world seemed to have become more viscous, adding resistance to their movements.
"Human Sages are indeed troublesome, but I have never tasted the flesh of a Human Sage to this day," Green Lion said, licking his lips and staring at Lu Yu with burning eyes.
"Don’t just stand there, make your move now! The Array won’t withstand the pressure for much longer," the Demon Lord of a Hundred Eyes shouted, not sharing their optimism.
The three demons of Lion Camel City exchanged glances, realizing the Demon Lord of a Hundred Eyes had a point; it was time for a quick battle and quick decision.
Thus, the four demons sprang into action, each wielding their weapons and attacking Lu Yu, who was trapped in the Array, with a chilling murderous aura sweeping over the world, their eyes revealing a ruthless intent to kill.
Lu Yu, seeing this, stayed calm and summoned the Treasure Vase to float above his head, casting down golden light to protect his body. He mentally connected to the Treasure Vase, attempting to take control of the Array’s space.
Just a bit of space was all he needed, and he would be able to use the Divine Skills "Illusory Flowers Reflective Moon," by which time he would be in an invincible position.
"Quickly, he’s trying to take over the space, we can’t let him use that Divine Skill," Dapeng keenly noticed Lu Yu’s movements and spoke out.
Upon hearing this, both Green Lion and Bai Xiang were shocked. The cunning nature of Lu Yu’s Divine Skills flashed through their minds, and a sense of urgency grew within them, hastening their attacks.
Four immense forces struck the golden barrier hung by the Treasure Vase, issuing a thunderous noise. Massive ripples spread outward from the barrier, pulverizing countless rocks into dust as they passed, a testament to the formidable power of their attacks.
"Damn it, why is this barrier so tough!" Green Lion cursed loudly.

Iron Fist hammered on the barrier, causing a series of loud noises, yet it still couldn’t be broken. As time passed, the light on the barrier faded more and more, but it remained standing firm.
The four demons became acutely aware that their control over the space of the Array was weakening with time, and it wouldn’t be long before Lu Yu took it over, making them increasingly anxious.
The Demon Lord of a Hundred Eyes could no longer afford to worry about the injuries he had sustained from Bilam Po. He took off his Taoist robe and the nearly a hundred eyes beneath his ribs shone brightly. Countless rays of light illuminated the barrier, producing a roaring sound.
The golden barrier was instantly covered in cracks, and the Demon Lord of a Hundred Eyes bellowed, "Strike now!"
The three demons also knew the urgency in the heart of the Demon Lord of a Hundred Eyes, who was already injured. Such an attack was probably the only one he could afford.
Bai Xiang reverted to his true form, his massive trunk striking the barrier, and finally, with a loud bang, the golden barrier in front of Lu Yu shattered, revealing him behind it.
The four demons showed a delighted expression on their faces, having finally shattered that damned barrier, they could now attack Lu Yu’s true body.
Lu Yu let out a wry smile, the determination and willpower of the four demons had exceeded his expectations. This development meant that his plan to control space and deploy the "Illusory Flowers Reflective Moon" strategy had failed, but he did not feel too afraid. After all, he was no longer the talent-lacking scholar of the human race he used to be.
With a thought, the pressure of the Human Path’s Fortune and Destiny intensified once again, and even the sound of creaking emerged from the void—the noise emanated from the Array being suppressed by the Human Path’s Fortune and Destiny.
However, this Array was carefully designed by the four demons, using up many precious materials. Despite facing such pressure, although it seemed on the verge of collapse, it still stood firm.
Lu Yu sighed lightly. After all, this place was neither the flourishing lands of Dongsheng Divine Continent and Nanzhan Buzhou of the Human Path, and the nearby humans had been almost utterly massacred by the three demons of Lion Camel City, greatly diminishing the power of the Human Path’s Fortune and Destiny. Otherwise, how could a mere array withstand the suppression of the Human Path’s Fortune and Destiny?
He drew out the Sword of State and, seeing the four demons rushing toward him, he took the initiative to strike.
The piercing Sword Qi filled the air, dazzling and clear, with sharp sword light congealing into a solid form, causing the four demons to retreat on their own accord — none wanted to endure the strike.
Far from being lenient, Lu Yu unleashed the Spiritual Water from the Treasure Vase, which turned into three clones of himself, each wielding a treasured sword and attacking a different demon.
Meanwhile, Lu Yu’s true body instantly charged toward the Demon Lord of a Hundred Eyes. Among the four demons, the Demon Lord of a Hundred Eyes was the weakest and injured, and thus was Lu Yu’s first choice.
The sudden appearance of Lu Yu gave the Demon Lord of a Hundred Eyes a huge fright; however, being a greater demon who had cultivated for many years, he remained composed in the face of Lu Yu’s relentless onslaught. He knew very well that Lu Yu was seeking a quick victory and, so long as he could delay, Lu Yu would undoubtedly perish.
At this moment, the Demon Lord of a Hundred Eyes demonstrated astonishing willpower. Even though he fled in an embattled state under Lu Yu’s incessant assault, he managed to hold off Lu Yu’s offensive tenaciously.
Suddenly, Lu Yu’s eyes widened, and purple thunder burst forth, aiming straight for the Demon Lord of a Hundred Eyes’ face.
By that time, the Demon Lord of a Hundred Eyes had already been driven to a desperate situation by Lu Yu’s attacks, barely able to fend them off, let alone notice the attack coming from Lu Yu’s eyes.
The purple thunder, carrying the essence of Heavenly Punishment, struck him squarely in the face. The destructive force dissipated much of his mana, and the intense pain caused the Demon Lord of a Hundred Eyes to let out a piteous howl.
The sound was piercing, instantly spreading far and wide, leaving the lesser demons within Lion Camel Ridge utterly astounded.
Strike when the enemy is sick, that is when you claim their life. Lu Yu would not miss this golden opportunity; with the Five Qi circulating in his chest, the illusory heaven and earth suddenly descended upon the Demon Lord of a Hundred Eyes. It was the technique of Lu Yu’s "Five Qi Towards the Yuan" strategy, and without hesitation, he used it to swiftly deal with the Demon Lord of a Hundred Eyes.
The power of the illusory heaven and earth instantly pressed down upon the Demon Lord of a Hundred Eyes, forcing his body to involuntarily revert to its original form under the immense pressure.
A centipede a hundred zhang long suddenly appeared in front of Lu Yu, its tough shell gleaming with a chilling light, and its razor-sharp claws, like spears of steel, planted in the ground, looked monstrous and fearsome.
However, even in its original form, the Demon Lord of a Hundred Eyes still could not resist the pressure from the illusory heaven and earth. After all, as a technique following the Five Qi Towards the Yuan, it was not so easily overcome.
"Quick, save me!" At that moment, the Demon Lord of a Hundred Eyes issued a wretched plea for help to the three demons; he knew if no one came to his aid, he would perish here.
