I am guarding the sky prison in Journey to the West

Chapter 260 Tianhe
"Li Anran, why are you back so soon?"

Nezha wanted to compete with Li Anran. After telling Li Anran about the Eight Immortals, he did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he stayed in the Tianlao Palace and waited while drinking.

At this time, Nezha was a little surprised to see Li Anran coming back.

Li Anran said: "I'm not the protagonist, and it's a waste of time to stay there. It's better to come back early and have a couple of drinks with you."

"What's the situation over there now?"

Nezha heard something different. He came close to Li Anran and asked curiously: "Have Lu Dongbin and the others succeeded? Why do I think you look down on them?"

"The way is different, so we don't conspire with each other."

Li Anran did not hide his attitude and told Nezha everything that happened there.

Nezha was stunned when he heard this: "What Lu Dongbin said is too arbitrary! If the gods are all upright, where do all the sinful immortals in Heaven come from every year!"

Immediately afterwards, he frowned, a little worried: "Second brother has been enforcing the rules of heaven for so many years, and the most important thing is to act in accordance with the law and have solid evidence. Lu Dongbin's words are completely illogical and unreasonable. Heaven must really take it. If this is taken as evidence, the prestige of Heavenly Court, Tianzhi and Tianlu, and the second brother in the Three Realms will be greatly reduced.

"Don't worry! Second brother is watching over there! He will definitely not let this happen! Drink, drink!"

Li Anran was full of confidence in Yang Jian, picked up the wine bowl, and started drinking with Nezha.

Li Anran is a good drinker. The good thing is that he drinks with friends and is not an alcoholic.

Nezha was practicing in seclusion at Qianyuan Mountain during this period, Yang Jian was involved in many affairs, and Li Anran had not drank for a while.

"Okay." Nezha had also been greedy for a long time. He drank a lot when he was alone.

At this time, Li Anran came and couldn't hold it back. After three bowls of wine, he shouted angrily: "Huh! During the time I was in Qianyuan Mountain, I heard Master there every day." Li Anran is long, Li Anran is short! Today, after I finish drinking, I have to compete with you to see how powerful you, Li Anran, are now!"

Li Anran smiled and said: "When the time comes, if you can still stand firm, let's talk about the competition! Do it!"

The two of them went back and forth between cups and drank happily.

The Eight Immortals also got results soon.

Not long after, a group of heavenly soldiers escorted the pangolin, which had the magic power of the soul sealed and was tied up with five flowers, to the heavenly prison.

The Eight Immortals were originally prepared to kill the pangolin on the spot to ward off demons and protect the Tao.

However, Yang Jian stopped him.

Yang Jian really couldn't accept Lu Dongbin's bizarre argument that "only monsters can be sneaky" to argue that "the eight immortals are innocent and the pangolin is guilty", so he decided to go down to earth to search for evidence himself.

He wanted to wait until the evidence was conclusive before dealing with the pangolins in accordance with the rules of heaven.

Naturally, the other gods wouldn't care about this. Most of them thought that Yang Jian was doing something unnecessary, and some even thought that Yang Jian was deliberately trying to show off.

The Eight Immortals were also very dissatisfied, shouting that Yang Jian did not trust them and actually believed in a monster.

Yang Jian couldn't help but slap the Eight Immortals on the face.

If he hadn't known that the gathering of the Eight Immortals in Dongsheng Shenzhou was controlled by Taishang Laojun behind the scenes, he would have known that the Eight Immortals were innocent, that the real culprit was a pangolin, and that Taishang Laojun and Taiyi Tianzun were still there.

It is simply impossible to let the Eight Immortals fool around with this method of fishing and law enforcement. In the end, it ended up in this extremely ridiculous failure, treating the rules of heaven and the rule of law in the three realms as child's play.

After the pangolin was imprisoned in the sky prison, the information naturally appeared in the punishment book.

While Li Anran was drinking, he casually glanced at the life of Pangolin, and then threw it aside.

Pangolin's most proud inheritance is Fake Tongtian's "Nine Transformations of Xuantian". Li Anran has long learned it from Fake Tongtian's life and has promoted it to the highest level.

As for the other magic techniques, they are not worth mentioning.

Li Anran's biggest feeling is that there really is a natural nemesis in this world. If a pangolin encounters the Eight Immortals, especially He Xiangu, it will be really bad luck for eight lifetimes!

The pangolin was originally an ordinary beast in the mountains. By chance, he drank a spiritual fruit, which gave him spiritual wisdom and inherited it in his blood.

From then on, he began to absorb the essence of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth day and night, practiced hard, and devoted himself to attaining the Tao and becoming an immortal.

After more than seven hundred years like this, the pangolin finally encountered the greatest opportunity in his life——

A thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum that has produced spiritual wisdom!

It took several decades to seize Polygonum multiflorum and cook it into a pot of soup.

As a result, Zhang Guolao and his donkey drank secretly.

Zhang Guolao and the donkey became immortals as a result, while the pangolin failed after decades of hard work.

The pangolin sought revenge on Zhang Guolao, but Han Zhongli and others stopped him by saying that everything was a matter of time. They even gave him a condescending lecture, telling him to practice honestly and not to take shortcuts.

pangolin:? ? ?

It was only a matter of days before Zhang Guolao and Donkey could become immortals after eating Polygonum multiflorum. I worked so hard to catch Polygonum multiflorum and took a shortcut?

Pangolin knew that he was no match for Han Zhongli and others, so he settled for the next best thing and promised not to trouble Zhang Guolao, as long as Zhang Guolao handed over his donkey.

What he was thinking was that if he ate the donkey now, he could still get some of the benefits of Polygonum multiflorum and recover some losses.

However, he was ruthlessly rejected by Han Zhongli and others.

The pangolin couldn't bear it and tried to snatch it away, but was seriously injured again.

In anger, Pangolin took refuge in Chun Shujing, a fake Tongtian disciple who had recruited him several times, and successfully learned the "Nine Transformations of Xuantian".

Even though Fake Tongtian regarded him as a cauldron, he was just waiting to eat it all after he was cooked!

The pangolin practiced the "Nine Transformations of Xuantian", and its strength greatly increased, and under the orders of the fake Tongtian, it went to find trouble with the Eight Immortals.

As a result, I bumped into He Xiangu, the biggest nemesis in my life!
After that, there is a series of stories that the dog cannot lick.

Until the fake Tongtian was killed by Li Anran and Yang Jian, Taishang Laojun took a fancy to pangolins and planned to train pangolins into another fake Tongtian villain, the whetstone of the Eight Immortals.

As a result, Pangolin continued to have "opportunities" and soon mastered the "Nine Transformations of Xuantian" to great perfection, breaking through to the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.

However, Pangolin's nature of being a dog-licker remains unchanged, and he only wants to fall in love with He Xiangu without any ambition at all.

For He Xiangu, he not only started to become a vegetarian, but even worshiped those Arhats who were not as good as him in cultivation as the Taiyi Golden Immortal.

The Supreme Lord was dumbfounded.

In desperation, Taishang Laojun could only work on two fronts. On the one hand, he hinted that the monsters were not trustworthy and encouraged Han Zhongli and others to make things difficult and humiliate the pangolin. On the other hand, he let monsters such as the Chun tree spirit fan the flames in the pangolin's ears.The pangolin finally couldn't bear it anymore and determined that Lu Dongbin and other Seven Immortals were the biggest obstacle preventing him from being with He Xiangu, and began to attack them secretly.

Only then did the pangolin sneak into the underworld to refine demon seeds with resentful souls and ghosts to assassinate the Seven Immortals. Later, he pretended to be Lu Dongbin and went on a massacre in the East China Sea to burn down the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea.

And the fundamental purpose of all he did was just to be with He Xiangu!
It's amazing!

Li Anran complained in his mind, put the matter behind him, and continued drinking with Nezha.

After some drinking, it was already midnight.

As Li Anran had expected, Nezha drank till the end and could not stand firmly, let alone a martial arts competition.

During this period, Nezha talked about his next plan.

"After Kunpeng's death, the three realms were in chaos and demons were rampant. I told my master that I will not go back to Qianyuan Mountain after I come back this time. My second brother is short of manpower, so I will stay and help him."

As expected, Li Jing was mentioned.

But this time, Nezha didn't grit his teeth like before, but was a little more calm and relaxed.

"As long as he doesn't come to me, I won't bother to trouble him! But if he dares to be rude to me, I will never show mercy to him!"

Even without using the Hehuan Kung Fu to sense Nezha's emotional changes, Li Anran could tell that Nezha's calmness was just an act!
From the fact that he would still take the initiative to mention Li Jing even after drinking too much, we knew that he had not completely let go of his grudge.

It was only after he broke through to Daluo Jinxian that he gained a little more confidence. From the previous hatred and fear of being powerless, he now looks forward to an early conflict with Li Jing so that he can avenge his past.

This is probably also the important reason and purpose why Nezha can't wait to die.

Li Anran didn't say much.

He has always helped his relatives but not helped them, and he has made a clear distinction between distant and distant relatives. If Nezha conflicts with Li Jing, he will side with Nezha without hesitation.

Just like when he mentioned to Nezha that he needed Nezha's help for some time.

Nezha didn't even ask what the matter was, and agreed without saying a word.

Nezha quickly got himself drunk, lay on his back and fell asleep.

Li Anran didn't use any magic power to dispel the alcohol. After drinking several jars of wine, he lay down next to Nezha and fell asleep.

practice...

No, it should be said that everything in this world requires relaxation and moderation!

A drunken session with friends may not be that much worse than an epiphany sometimes!

When Li Anran opened his eyes again, it was already seven days later.

For mortals, seven days of drunkenness is a long time, but for gods, don’t be too normal!
Back then, the lion slave of Taiyi Tianzun secretly drank the reincarnation liquid and became drunk for three years.

After being woken up by Taiyi Tianzun, I am afraid that I will be able to sleep for another few decades!
Soon, Nezha also woke up from his sleep. The first thing he did when he got up was to grab Li Anran and ask Li Anran to compete with him.

Naturally, Li Anran would not refuse. He was about to pick up the weapon, but was stopped by Nezha.

"The place here is too small, I can't use it! I know a place where few people go there on weekdays. Come with me!"

Nezha and Li Anran left Tianlao Palace one after another, leaving the heavenly soldiers and generals in Tianlao Palace who had long been looking forward to witnessing the battle between the two war gods eager to chase after them.

The place Nezha was looking for was on the edge of the Tianhe River. It was usually the place where Bi Mawen kept Pegasus horses. At this time, it was empty with not a single person in sight.

The two immediately started fighting.

After a few moves, Li Anran couldn't help but feel a little frightened: "No wonder Nezha is so unconvinced!"

The lotus comes out of the mud but is not stained, and washes the clear ripples without being evil!
The demonic energy that had merged into Nezha's body was just like the mud, polluting Nezha's spirit.

However, it also gave Nezha's lotus body a place to take root and sprout!

Especially after Nezha fused with another lotus lamp.

His lotus body no longer looked like it was full of vitality on the surface, but was actually a rootless tree.

Thousands of years have passed, and it still looks like it was when it was first shaped into a human form, with only quantitative improvements and no qualitative changes.

Nowadays, Nezha's lotus body is a truly innate body. The two lotus lamps merge into one, making his heeling ability comparable to that of Kunpeng and Zhen Yuanzi, the ancient giants who were born at the beginning of the world. Can be compared.

Heeling qualifications are not everything, but the stronger the heeling qualifications, the easier it will be to practice and the stronger you will be at the same level!
Nezha has three heads and six arms. He has a wind and fire wheel on his feet, is wrapped in Huntian silk, and has a Xuantian tower on his head. He is holding a fire-tip spear, a universe circle and other magic weapons. His light is shining and his arrogance is overwhelming.

In terms of strength alone, he is no worse than Zhao Gongming!

Li Anran couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "There is great terror between life and death, and great calamity is indeed great opportunity!"

400 years ago, when he first met Nezha, Nezha was just a Taiyi Golden Immortal, not even a very powerful Taiyi Golden Immortal!
The lotus body makes Nezha not afraid of any evil spells targeting the soul, but it also limits his further improvement!
In the ten thousand years after becoming a god, Nezha's cultivation progressed slowly. Not only was he left far behind by Yang Jian, but even rising stars such as Monkey, Jiao Demon King, and Peng Demon King were able to fight Nezha back and forth, and even It's slightly better.

However, in this short period of 400 years, Nezha chose to stand with Yang Jian and took the initiative to enter the aftermath of the disaster.

First, his cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds to the peak of Taiyi Golden Immortal. Then, after he was almost defeated by the fake Tongtian, and after fusion with another Baolian Lantern, he directly broke through to Daluo Golden Immortal, and his strength increased more than a thousand times.

When Li Anran was amazed, Nezha's heart was like a turbulent sea and it was difficult to calm down.

Before the fight, even though Nezha heard about Li Anran's achievements from countless people and heard their praise for Li Anran, he was still unconvinced!

He knows better than anyone else the process of improving Li Anran's cultivation, and he also knows better how much his strength has improved after breaking through to Daluo Jinxian!
Nezha's heart is filled with one thought——

Whether it is powerful or not, no one can say it, you will know after you fight it!
Now, he finally knows!
He had already used his three heads and six arms, using all his strength, but Li Anran still looked calm and composed at the beginning. He didn't even use any magic weapon, and only relied on the power of his physical body to fight him evenly!
After several head-to-head encounters, Nezha even felt a little sore and numb in his arms.

His physical body has obviously undergone qualitative improvement and transformation, but Li Anran's physical body is even stronger!
"No wonder Master keeps praising him and asking me to learn from him!" Nezha thought secretly in his heart.

He didn't know that Taiyi Tianzun didn't know that Li Anran had broken through to Daluo Jinxian at that time. What he praised was that Li Anran had refined the Four Swords of Zhuxian!

At this time, Li Anran has not used it at all, and there is no need to use it!
"Don't fight, don't fight!"

Nezha, a young man with a good face, made an excuse when he saw this: "I have to report to the Jade Emperor! Let's fight another day!" Without waiting for Li Anran to speak, he turned into a golden light and flew away.

He only left one sentence: "Li Anran, if you need anything, come to me at the Judiciary Temple. I will stay with my second brother during this time."

"Nezha! He ran so far and only passed so many moves!"

Li Anran looked helpless and was about to return to Tianlao. His eyes accidentally glanced at the Cowherd and Weaver Girl on both sides of the Tianhe River, but he was stunned.
