Chapter 395: The Tightening Hoop Spell
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“What is this?”
At this moment, there was a golden hoop-like ring in the Eternal Flower Register, which caught Jerry’s attention.
“Tightening hoop spell?”
Jerry saw the introduction of this thing. The name on it was Tightening Hoop Spell.
It was said to be an item from a literary novel in ancient China, Journey to the West.
It was something that Guanyin Bodhisattva had given to Tang Sanzang to bind Sun Wukong.
It was said that for some reason, a monk called Tang Sanzang had to travel from the Tang Dynasty to India at that time to obtain a scripture, and bring it back to the Tang Dynasty to preach.
However, there were monsters everywhere along the way, and Tang Sanzang, as a monk, had no way of resisting these terrifying monsters.
Therefore, the then divine realm naturally found him a group of “disciples” to protect the Tang Monk along the way.
The three disciples had their own respective characteristics, but what they had in common was to atone for their sin by doing good deeds.
The one with the most vivid impression and the most widely spread was the eldest disciple, Sun Wukong.
This Sun Wukong was simply extraordinary. He was alone, and with just a stick which could regulate water and watercourses, he was able to fight the Heavenly Palace and beat the various gods.
In the end, for various reasons, it was not easy to attack him perhaps because of stance, or insufficient combat strength, the Heavenly Palace had invited god from other place, which was the Buddha, to suppress Sun Wukong.
Sun Wukong was chosen by the Heavenly Palace as the Tang Monk’s number one fighter. They hoped that Sun Wukong could follow the Tang Monk all the way to protect the Tang Monk.
However, Sun Wukong was after all still a restless monkey. He was used to living a wild life, so how could he stand being ordered around by others?
Therefore, Guanyin Bodhisattva gave Tang Sanzang a magic treasure, which was the tightenng hoop spell in front of Jerry’s eyes.
If this tightening hoop spell was placed on the head of a demon, it would take root upon seeing flesh. Once the user chanted the spell, the demon would feel a piercing pain. Its eyes would swell and its head would ache, and its head would split open. It would discipline the demon to be obedient.
Therefore, Sun Wukong obediently followed Tang Sanzang all the way and became one of Tang Sanzang’s most capable subordinates.
With a little thought, one could understand the power of this tightening hoop spell. It was a magic treasure that could restrain Sun Wukong, and at that time, Sun Wukong was a legendary demon that could single-handedly turn the immortal world upside down.
What was even more perfect was that the “demon” here happened to be a monkey in the original novel.
“I wonder if this thing has a special effect on monkey-like creatures.”
Jerry muttered as he took out this tightening hoop spell.
But at this moment, the Eternal Flower Register seemed to be a bottomless pit, crazily absorbing his divine power.
“It seems that divine artifacts that are too far away need more points.”
Jerry muttered. He understood that this tightening hoop spell was something that was very far away from him now, whether it was in terms of distance or time. Moreover, this tightening hoop spell might not have existed in reality, but was created by the imagination of the predecessors.
Therefore, if he wanted to take it out, he would naturally have to pay a higher price.
However, Jerry could not care less at this moment. He had spent all the points he had accumulated all at once in order to obtain this tightening hoop spell. If he could win a glimmer of hope for the Sky Dynasty, then even if it was a huge price, he would not hesitate at all!
“Come out!”
A golden light flashed out from the Eternal Flower Register. The item that existed in the legends had already materialized in Jerry’s palm.
It was a golden round steel hoop. At the end, there were two cloud-shaped rings that were extremely heavy in his hand.
The accompanying spell also entered Jerry’s mind.
He immediately understood the most complicated part of the spell. Even he had never learned the language before, he could still recite it very smoothly at this moment.
“It’s depending on you now, go!”
Jerry swung his hand and threw the tightening hoop spell at the giant monkey.
…
“Tail! Tail! Tail!”
Everyone spread out and formed a circle to deal with the giant monkey.
At this moment, the brothers at the back of the giant monkey noticed that the giant monkey was wagging its tail, so they all chanted slogans to remind the brothers in front to pay attention.
In the next second, the giant monkey suddenly turned its body and swept its steel-like tail like a stick.
Fortunately, everyone knew about the giant monkey’s actions in advance and jumped ahead of time. Therefore there were no casualties.
Apollo jumped up in the air, actively thinking of countermeasures.
If His Majesty was willing to listen to him, he would have escaped earlier, leaving the rest behind.
Then, Apollo might not have such a strong desire to survive. In any case, facing a Tier Five god-king enemy, no matter how hard he tried, he would not be able to do anything.
It was better to die earlier, and relieve earlier.
However, His Majesty was not willing to leave. Instead, he wanted them to fight together until the very last moment. This gave Apollo another reason to put up a desperate fight.
Fortunately, His Majesty had already sealed the flow of the giant monkey’s physical strength and divine power. It was unable to release any moves that contained divine power. Otherwise, the Sky Dynasty would not even be able to withstand a single slap from the giant monkey.
Currently, the giant monkey was already making it difficult for the Sky Dynasty’s people to deal with it just by relying on its body.
If not for the reminder from his brothers behind him, Apollo would not have been able to see the movements of the giant monkey’s tail from his position.
It could be said that if the people behind him did not chant the slogans, Apollo would have definitely been hit by this sweeping attack.
A Tier Five god-king, with such a huge body, it was hard to imagine what would happen if he was hit by such an attack. He might not even be able to find his bones.
Thinking of this, Apollo shuddered. Looking at the tail that could easily take his life sweeping under him, the cool wind that blew even carried the aura of death.
“Fortunately, I jumped up.”
Apollo comforted himself.
“Apollo! Apollo!”
But in the next second, Apollo heard everyone calling his name.
It was different from chanting slogans. When chanting a slogan, in order to encourage each other, everyone would usually use a very loud and mighty voice to shout.
But this time, everyone’s voice was obviously filled with great panic. Their voices were loud and trembling.
“What has happened?”
“Why is the surrounding becoming dark?”
Apollo thought as he raised his head.
The giant monkey’s palm had already reached the top of his head.
Apollo could even see the palm lines on it. The hand gave off a fishy smell, like a city wall made of compressed garbage.
In Apollo’s eyes, everything around him was covered by this palm. As the son of the Sun, he could not see any light at this moment.
