Chapter 188: 5 Yun is absent, 8 Suffering

Chapter 188: The Five Aggregates are missing and the Eight Sufferings are fighting

What does it feel like to have billions of lives crawling at your feet?

The sound of mountains and seas was heard, and the whole world was shaking faintly.

Yang Jian only felt an invisible breath rising in his heart.

It made him feel a little bit dizzy and he started to become addicted to this feeling.

As the leader of the Nine Heavenly Demons, Poxun is the highest-level demon that these Asuras under his feet can come into contact with.

As for the Nine Heavenly Demons, nine is an imaginary number, which does not mean that there are only nine heavenly demons.

There are numerous celestial demons, and Poxun is the lord of them all, also known as the chief of the nine celestial demons.

As for the high-level demons such as the Eight Sufferings, Five Aggregates, Three Attachments, and Transformation of Others, they each hold a part of the power of the demon world and are beyond the reach of ordinary Asuras and demons.

It is precisely because of this that Mara is the one who holds the power of life and death over all Asuras in the Sumeru Mountain area.

He can decide life and death with just a thought, and he has the final say!
Yang Jian knew that everything before him was an illusion.

It is only because he now has the appearance and identity of Po Xun that he is worshipped by these billions of creatures.

If he showed his true form, these guys below would just want to eat his flesh and drink his blood.

He imitated Poxun's past habits and ignored the creatures crawling below, flying straight into the Nine Demon Tower.

The front foot just entered.

A sound was heard from behind.

"Bo Xun, why didn't you bring back the invading guy? Could it be that he was defeated and got beaten up instead, and then ran back in disgrace?"

Yang Jian looked up and found an old creature standing in front of him.

His skin was covered in wrinkles, layer upon layer, and no hands or feet could be seen. Only a lump of old flesh could be seen. Where the skin was piled up, there was obvious dirt left.

These mud and dirt have been with his body for thousands of years, and now they seem indestructible.

Along with the mud and dirt, there is also a foul smell.

Revealing an air of old age.

It was through Fairy Caixia that he learned that the guy in front of him was the old demon, one of the Eight Bitter Demons.

It has the ability to control the physical state of living beings, causing them to age prematurely, their physical skills to decline, their bodies to become dull and their spirits to become turbid.

If you are targeted by it, your path will be shattered.

Terrible.

"Do you want to fight with me?"

Yang Jian said suddenly.

He was not an old demon who wanted to provoke one of the Eight Demons of Suffering because he was too old to live.

But in Poxun's memory, he had never gotten along with the Eight Demons of Suffering.

As for the reason~
Suddenly, a pile of rotten flesh in front of me began to shake.

A skinny arm peeled off layers of flesh, revealing a pair of lifeless eyes.

It turns out that this guy still has eyes.

It's just that these are covered by the skin and flesh.

This flesh and blood is not such an inconvenient thing. The old demon's magical powers all rely on this flesh and blood.

A layer of skin and flesh can shave off a layer of lifespan of a living being.

The old demon's skinny palm flipped the flesh until his face was exposed, and he sneered at Yang Jian: "Hand me over? You are not worthy! You are just a small demon, and you dare to covet the position of the Five Elements Demon. You really don't know how to live or die!"

This is the reason why Mara has a bad relationship with the Eight Demons.

That is if one of the five aggregates is missing, all the demons in the sky have the opportunity to become one of the five aggregates demons.

The eight heavenly demons among the Eight Suffering Demons were staring at this position with eager eyes.

All other people who can compete for this position are enemies to the Eight Suffering Demons, with Mara being the worst among them.

After all, apart from the eight creatures competing with each other, among the Eight Demons of Suffering, Po Xun is the strongest and has the highest combat power, which is no less than that of the Eight Demons of Suffering.

Therefore, Poxun is also the biggest threat to them.

Whenever there is a chance to suppress Mara, any of the Eight Demons will not give up this opportunity.

According to Po Xun's character, whenever he encounters verbal insults, he will react violently.

The demons in heaven have never been submissive to anyone else. Even though the Eight Bitterness Demon has a higher status than him, it only means that his status is higher, which does not necessarily mean that his strength and status are stronger.

Therefore, Bo Xun will not swallow his anger. No matter what kind of dispute he encounters, his choice is to fight.

On the one hand, it was to let the Five Elements Demon see his strength so that he would have the opportunity to fill the Five Elements Demon's vacancy.

As the existence guarding the black lotus of destruction, the Five Elements Demon is closer to the path of evil.

With his extremely noble status and position, it is not easy for him to get his turn.

Bo Xun knew that this was impossible, but he would not give up an opportunity to show himself.

In the past, whenever he made a move, he would be stopped by one of the Five Elements Demon to prevent a slaughter from happening.

The Five Elements Demon was stationed at the top of the Nine Demon Tower, guarding the world-destroying black lotus left behind by Rāhu.

In order to prevent any abnormal situations, their spiritual thoughts have already spread to every corner of the Nine Demon Tower.

Listening for any movement.

So in the past, Bo Xun was well aware of all these things, and he knew that he could not really do anything.

This is just to make a point.

An attitude of not being involved with the eight evil spirits or forming cliques.

This is also the point that the Five Aggregates Demon values ​​most.

After all, the Black Lotus of Destruction is related to the foundation of the evil way. If a selfish guy comes and ascends to the position of one of the Five Elements, it would be common for him to make some secret moves while guarding the Black Lotus of Destruction.

Every demon who can enter the Nine Demon Tower has crawled out from the identity of Shura.

Crawling out step by step from the bottom, every living being has a clan from which they are born. They have a common blood connection with the clan, and the clan relies on magic energy to reproduce and thrive.

The source of the evil energy is the black lotus of destruction.

Most living beings are selfish and will control the Black Lotus of Destruction to direct the evil energy toward the location of their clan.

The stronger the demonic energy, the corresponding Shura clan will be able to reproduce more Shuras, making it easier for them to stand out in the meat grinder under Mount Sumeru.

After these Shuras cultivated the way of magic and reached Xumi City, their blood became the strongest connection between them, forming an unbreakable alliance.

For example, the current Eight Bitter Demons are from the same Shura clan.

Originally, the Eight Sufferings Demon was not like this. After two Heavenly Demons in a clan ascended to the position of the Eight Sufferings and took control of part of the demonic power.

They formed an alliance to exclude dissidents and secretly planned to send the remaining eight bitter demons to the dangerous places in the prehistoric world. After they died, they would choose the demons from their clan.

As a result, the Eight Bitterness Demons were united at this time, making it difficult for the Nine Demon Tower to shake them off, but there was nothing they could do.

When the five aggregates were finally forced to be absent, they had to give up the past habit of selecting heavenly demons for promotion from among the eight suffering demons, and instead select from among all the heavenly demons.

If there are already demons in the clan who are in the positions of the Three Attachments, Five Aggregates, and Eight Sufferings, then they will not be selected from among them.

The Eight Bitter Demons knew that although they had become a powerful group, they also understood that this would only happen if all the qualified demons died.

Otherwise they would never be chosen.

And they are able to become united step by step, so naturally they will not choose to sit and wait for death.

Every demon that has the chance to be chosen by the Five Aggregates is already on their kill list.

Including Mara.
