No taboos in the world

Chapter 605 Xuanling Mountain: Four Grown-up Disciples

Hong Chen did not stay in Luojia Mountain in the South China Sea for too long. After all, everyone was already familiar with the so-called process of the rise of Buddhism, and all they were talking about was where Buddhism would give concessions to Hong Chen.

The biggest difference between The Great Tribulation in Journey to the West and Conferred the Gods is that this time the process of sorting out the calamity energy of heaven and earth has changed.

In the past, disaster energy was mostly resolved by killing and injuring people. The essence of this was to use the spiritual energy, Taoist fruits, merits, luck, and everything else that returned to heaven and earth from the dead to offset the surging disaster energy of heaven and earth.

However, in Journey to the West, the process of traveling westward was used to sort out, guide and resolve the calamity of heaven and earth step by step. With the merits and fortune brought by the rise of Buddhism, the land of the West was repaired and a catastrophe was eliminated without notice.

After all, after experiencing one great catastrophe after another, the Taoist Ancestor has gained a lot of experience, which is why he made such arrangements.

Comparing the disasters that have occurred since the beginning of the universe, although many lives have been lost in the Journey to the West, the overall level of danger is far less than before. Looking at the previous disasters, each of them attracted the most powerful creatures in the universe to fight, and the victims were all top-notch. The little monsters that died on the Journey to the West were not even as good as their skins.

It can be seen that the Taoist ancestor who originally made this arrangement was still kind to the creatures in the prehistoric world.

Jie Yin and Zhunti, the two brothers who are heavily in debt, are finally about to have their moment of glory.

The negotiations with Guanyin went very smoothly, probably because the result of the last Conferred God Ceremony had changed greatly, and Hong Chen's strength had also won respect, so the Buddhist sect did not want Hong Chen to interfere, so they simply arranged merit bureaus for the four disciples under Hong Chen.

Hong Chen readily agreed.

He doesn't need any merit or luck now, but these things are still extremely beneficial to his disciples' practice.

After leaving the South China Sea, Hong Chen went straight to the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea.

Ao Guang personally welcomed him into the palace and arranged a banquet, which made Hong Chen feel a little embarrassed.

He sighed and said, "Dragon King, I broke my promise."

Before the Conferred God Clan, Hong Chen had personally made an appointment with Ao Guang, asking the Dragon Clan to help him accomplish something. At that time, Ao Guang had already agreed and had also done a lot of preparatory work within the Dragon Clan.

Unfortunately, Emperor Xin later changed his mind and the cooperation failed.

Ao Guang was cheerful, waving his hands and laughing: "Hahaha, why does the emperor have to be like this? If you want to talk about disappointment, Xiaolong is of course disappointed, because the cooperation failed, I can't help the emperor, and I can't earn the emperor's favor. But if you want to talk about other things, Xiaolong doesn't feel a bit, although the dragon clan did make a lot of preparations, but things didn't work out, just let them go home. Besides, this is not what the emperor wants, how can Xiaolong complain?"

Perhaps it was because he had interacted with Hong Chen more often, Ao Guang was obviously much more happy and comfortable when facing him now than at the beginning.

This just happened to cater to Hong Chen's preferences. What he hated most was people who beat around the bush when facing each other.

Hong Chen picked up the Jade Dragon Cup and said with a smile: "Thank you very much for your understanding, Dragon King. I'll drink a glass as a punishment!" After that, he raised his head and drank it all in one gulp despite the Dragon King's obstruction. Naturally, Ao Guang followed suit and raised his own glass.

The atmosphere was cheerful.

After the banquet, Hong Chen gave a look and Ao Guang immediately sent away the palace maids, and the surroundings became quiet.

Hong Chen took a sip of tea, put down the cup, and said, "I'll keep Long Yuan's matter in mind, Dragon King, don't worry."

Ao Guang smiled and poured him more tea, saying, "Your Majesty, there is no need to do this. Your words are always yours, how could Xiaolong not know that?"

"I'm not afraid that you'll worry that I've forgotten."

"Haha, Your Majesty, you worry too much. The elders of the Dragon Clan in Longyuan are not good, but they haven't suffered." After a pause, he put down the teapot and said with a smile, "I'm not afraid of being laughed at by the Your Majesty. Most of those elders are unruly. Even though they were thrown into Longyuan, they were ambitious at first. Fortunately, they have been recuperating in Longyuan for these years, and have smoothed out some of their edges. Otherwise, Xiaolong would not dare to ask the Your Majesty to release them, as that would only bring disaster to the Dragon Clan."

Ao Guang sighed deeply, with a somewhat sad look on his face.

Seeing this, Hong Chen couldn't help but sigh: "It's really not easy for you to be the Dragon King and the leader of the Dragon Clan."

Ao Guang smiled and said, "The Great Emperor is merciful and knows how to pity the little dragons. But among the dragons, especially the younger ones, if they are not properly disciplined, who knows how much trouble they will cause."

Although the dragon clan is indeed in decline today, this statement also depends on who you are comparing them with.

As the prehistoric world has developed to this day, innate creatures are almost extinct, and the spiritual power of acquired creatures is also constantly weakening. However, although the number of the long-declined dragon race is not as large as it was in the past, its quality is quite high. Even if the so-called innate sacred races in the heavens and myriad worlds are pulled out, they are far inferior to the prehistoric dragon race.

A lean camel is bigger than a horse. Besides, the dragon clan is just thin now and is far from dying.

Moreover, looking at the arrangements made by the dragon clan from its defeat to today, it can be seen that the dragon clan will never disappear easily in the prehistoric world.

On the other hand, the Phoenix and Qilin remaining among the three innate clans are now in a much worse situation than the Dragon clan.

Hong Chen sighed for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "Speaking of which, I really have a connection with the dragon clan."

Ao Guang also smiled when he heard this: "Indeed, the Great Emperor has indeed formed an indissoluble bond with the Dragon Clan along the way."

Not to mention the good relationship between him and the dragon clan now, before he entered the fairyland, he had personally met a green dragon. Going back a little further, the martial arts he practiced were also related to dragons, and later the martial arts he created were also named Nine Dragons.

Judging from their early experiences, they were clearly in opposition to the dragon clan, but when they arrived in the Three Realms, they were forcibly changed by Ao Guang's courtesy and became a party friendly to the dragon clan.

From this we can see that although Ao Guang seemed to be humble and submissive in everything, he clearly achieved all the goals he wanted to achieve.

Isn't this the best proof of his ability?

Besides, if Hong Chen had not appeared, everything that Ao Guang led the dragon clan to do would not have harmed the entire clan in the end.

It’s all about human relationships!
Hong Chen raised his head slightly, his eyes penetrating the wilderness and looking towards the three realms.

In the world closest to the prehistoric world, Wukong, who had completed the mission of obtaining the scriptures, had become the Fighting Buddha in Lingshan. Perhaps because Hong Chen had been there, he did not spend the whole day having fun and feasting with others, but instead practiced diligently.

Of course Hong Chen knew his purpose. It was obvious that Monkey knew something and wanted to become a Daluo as soon as possible, jump out of the long river of time, and dig out the secrets that others would not and dared not tell him.

However, how could Daluo be achieved so easily?
When Hong Chen left the Three Realms and went to the prehistoric world, he was still in the middle stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal. Now he has not yet cultivated to the peak, and is still far away from the only Daluo Dao Fruit in the Ten Thousand Realms. Therefore, the Buddhist sects in the Three Realms did not deliberately obstruct him.

Perhaps, by the time Sun Wukong in the ancient times completes his journey to the West, the Fighting Buddha of the Three Realms may not be able to reach the edge of the Daluo Golden Immortal.

After all, the Three Realms are just a derivative of the Primordial Chaos, and are very different from the Primordial Chaos in terms of origin. The higher the level of cultivation, the less one gets from the Three Realms.

"When the monkey comes, let me know." When Hong Chen withdrew his gaze, a sentence rang softly in Ao Guang's mind.

Ao Guang did not react when he heard the voice, but just poured another cup of tea for Hong Chen.

After a while, Hong Chen left the East China Sea and headed straight west.

Xuanling Mountain.

This temple standing in the western land was originally established to suppress Buddhism and facilitate the expansion of Da Shang and Xiqi. Until now, the original purpose has collapsed, and the human dynasty has not been successfully established, which makes its existence seem a bit abrupt.

In the Western world, 90% of the people are Buddhists.

The remaining ten percent are all located around Xuanling Mountain. They are all authentic believers of Xuanmen. Everyone worships Emperor Xuanling and regards Xuanling Mountain as a holy place in their hearts.

Also, because Hong Chen imitated the Xuanling Mountain in the Three Realms when he sculpted the Xuanling Mountain, the palaces and temples in the lower half of the mountain also allow mortals to visit and worship, so it is very popular.

After years of development, the layout of the palace in Xuanling Mountain has changed a lot. After entering the mountain gate, the first thing you see is four great gods, three men and one woman. Everyone knows that they are all disciples of Emperor Xuanling, and they are granted the title of heavenly gods and are also the guardians of Xuanling Mountain.

In the center is the Hongchen Hall, where Emperor Xuanling is enshrined.

After the Red Dust Hall, there is a larger, wider and more magnificent hall where the Holy Mother of mankind, Nuwa, is enshrined.

In addition, there are many temples dedicated to great gods such as the Emperor of Heaven and Hou Tu.

Because Xuanling Mountain has been very effective for many years, incense is burned all year round.

However, because many evil people in the past failed to obtain the mountain and ended up losing their lives instead, now anyone with evil thoughts dares not approach this mountain.

The upper part of Xuanling Mountain, invisible to mortals, is the immortal place of practice. It is filled with spiritual energy, blooming with auspicious colors, immortal beasts running and flying, and spiritual roots swaying gracefully.

In the martial arts arena, two young men who look very similar are fighting.

One of them was wearing golden armor and holding a dragon-shaped halberd; the other was wearing silver armor and holding a three-pointed, double-edged sword.

The two men fought back and forth, and the sound of halberds and swords colliding continued.

Sometimes he would display his magical powers, his spiritual light would burst forth, and his figure would float.

for a long time.

The two men separated as soon as they touched each other, with no clear winner.

Yang Jian, who had a divine eye on his forehead, put away his three-pointed double-edged sword, wiped off his sweat, and said with a smile: "Brother, you are really amazing."

Yang Jiao also put away his Panlong Halberd, smiled and walked up to him and patted his shoulder: "Second brother, you haven't stopped these days."

"Alright! Alright! It's our turn!"

A joyful shout could not wait to ring out. Nezha, still in his teenage years, came onto the field riding on the Wind-Fire Wheel, wearing the Mixed Sky Ribbon, and holding a Fire Spear. He looked at Yang Chan, who was sitting on the jade steps, with his bright eyes.

"Junior sister! Come here quickly, let me see if you have made any progress recently!"

Yang Chan let out an "oh" and flashed forward, holding a long sword in her hand. A precious lotus lantern was hanging above her head, and the divine light from the lamp fell down to protect her firmly.

Nezha nodded and said, "Junior sister, you attack first!"

Yang Chan nodded, her pretty face solemn: "Brother, be careful." As soon as she finished speaking, the sword flashed and the sword intent surged.

Yang Jiao and Yang Jian stood aside and watched attentively.

"Senior brother is giving in to my third sister." Yang Jiao said softly.

Yang Jian nodded: "And it's meant to be a guide."

"Yes, when Senior Brother displayed his three-headed, six-armed magical power last time, one of his hands was holding a sword. His sword skills are not weak." As he spoke, Yang Jiao looked at the sword hanging on Yang Jian's back and smiled, "Second Brother, do you still remember your childhood?"

What he said was that when Yang Jian was a child, he pestered Hong Chen to practice sword.

Yang Jian's face flashed with embarrassment, "Brother, please don't make fun of me. I have made some achievements in swordsmanship now."

"Haha, good, good, this can be regarded as the fulfillment of your childhood wish. When Master comes back, you can also ask Master for more advice."

Yang Jian nodded, and then asked curiously: "Brother, are you really not interested in swordsmanship?"

Yang Jiao nodded: "Yes, when I was a kid I was somewhat interested in swordsmanship, but when I saw the Coiling Dragon Halberd, I no longer had any interest in swordsmanship."

Yang Jian: "So, among the four of us, only the third sister has completely inherited the swordsmanship of the master."

"Yes." Yang Jiao sighed, then smiled: "With Master's achievements in swordsmanship, maybe after Master comes back, Junior Sister's strength will quickly catch up with or even surpass you, me, and Senior Brother Nezha."

Yang Jian nodded in agreement, "That's right! According to Uncle Bixiao, Master set up the Immortal Execution Sword Formation, which first seriously injured the Buddha Tathagata, and then killed the Golden Immortal of the Chan Sect and the rebels of the Jie Sect. Master's swordsmanship is second only to the Jie Sect's Tongtian Saint in the long river of swordsmanship. It's a pity that I can't see Master's Red Dust Sword in the long river of swordsmanship."

Yang Jiao's face straightened: "You should call me Grandmaster Uncle."

Yang Jian immediately cupped his hands and said, "Brother, you are right. I know I was wrong."

The two brothers chatted for a while, and the competition between Nezha and Yang Chan came to an end.

Nezha put away his magic treasures, landed on the ground, and said with a smile: "Junior sister has made great progress!"

Yang Chan couldn't help but smile when she heard that. She was about to raise her head to wipe the sweat off her forehead, but she saw Yang Jiao already holding a silk scarf to wipe the sweat off her forehead. On the other side, Yang Jian had also brought a cup of cool spiritual water.

Yang Chan let Yang Jiao wipe his sweat, took a sip of the spiritual water, and then smiled sweetly: "Thank you, big brother, thank you, second brother!"

"Eh!"

"Eh!"

The two brothers were all smiles and looked very satisfied.

Nezha wrinkled his nose and put his hands behind his back: "Where's mine?"

Hearing the sound, Yang Jiao changed a towel, squatted down and wiped Nezha's sweat, and Yang Jian also took another cup of spiritual water and brought it to him.

Although they are only junior brothers, this scene makes people feel that the two senior brothers are taking special care of the younger junior brother.

Nezha drank the water, stretched out his hands and patted Yang Jiao and Yang Jian on the shoulders respectively: "Not bad, not bad, both of you are great!"

Yang Jiao and Yang Jian were also happy to play with him, so they nodded and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Senior Brother."

Afterwards, Yang Jiao said, "Counting the days, Uncle Yunxiao will be here soon."

Nezha's neck shrank.

Yang Chan's eyes lit up.

Yang Jian said seriously: "Yes, we should prepare to welcome Uncle Master."

Ever since Hong Chen went to the Queen Wa Palace to listen to teachings, the three Yunxiao sisters, who were entrusted by him, went to Xuanling Mountain to look after it every once in a while, mainly to teach and take care of Hong Chen's four disciples.

Nezha was the most mischievous, so he was often punished by Yunxiao and Qiongxiao. However, he could play well with Bixiao who was equally mischievous.

Yang Chan is the cutest, so she gets along well with the three Yunxiao sisters.
