Outside the Water Curtain Cave in Huaguo Mountain, a white light fell from the sky and landed on the cliff opposite the waterfall, transforming into a white-haired Taoist holding a jade order and an immortal Taoist bone.
This Taoist is Taibai Jinxing who was ordered to recruit Sun Wukong to become an official in heaven.
Before he landed, Cheng Long in the cave sensed his aura, so he arranged for Qing Yi to leave the house early and wait.
“Is this person a heavenly being?”
Aunt Qing, dressed in green clothes, asked calmly and generously.
"Exactly."
Taibai Jinxing smiled.
As the most diligent immortal official around the Jade Emperor, he has absolutely no choice in how he treats people and things.
In the original play, Taibai Jinxing was threatened by Sun Wukong's group of monkeys, Monkey Sun, with swords, guns, swords and halberds, and was even tied up with ropes by the monkeys without showing any signs of anger.
I naturally felt more at ease with the polite Aunt Qing.
Soon, Taibai was led into the Water Curtain Cave by Aunt Qing.
"When a distinguished guest comes to the door, he will not be welcomed from afar, but he still looks forward to the sea."
Cheng Long, who was sitting at the table eating grapes, immediately stood up to greet him, giving Taibai enough face.
"No, no, it's the old Taoist who has disturbed me."
Taibai Jinxing looked around, took a few glances, and said: "The blessed land of Huaguo Mountain, the Water Curtain Cave and the Sky! The environment is really good , practicing here is a hundred times better than the human world, but... it's still a little worse than heaven."
"Heaven has thirty-three days, and the treasures of heaven, materials, and earth are inexhaustible, and the small water curtain cave cannot compare." At this point, Cheng Long suddenly changed the subject, "Hey, I'm an old man. , you came to my place, you didn’t come here just to look down on me. Right? "
"Of course not. I am a close confidant of the Jade Emperor. I am here to recruit fellow Taoists to become officials in heaven and share the destiny of heaven." Taibai Jinxing smiled and quickly said. Get to the point.
“It turns out to be Mr. Taibai Xing, the little immortal is so polite.”
Cheng Long cupped his hands, with no fear on his face.
Although Taibai Jinxing is the main killing star king and has the mid-to-late stage cultivation of Da Luo Jinxian, when the two of them really fight, Taibai Jinxing is really no match for him.
He has too many cards.
The Law of Creation and the Law of Devouring have a deeper understanding based on the original Hunyuan Golden Immortal.
The Divine Fire Technique allowed him to condense the most domineering divine fire.
The sun is really hot.
The Nine Transformations Mysterious Skill allowed his physical body to chase the great witch.
Even the Golden Cudgel, with the help of Cheap Mother, transformed into the ultimate acquired meritorious treasure. Not only is it incredibly powerful, it also kills people without any trace of cause and effect.
"Fellow Taoist, I won't say too much about the polite words of the old Taoist. The Jade Emperor invites you to go to heaven with full sincerity. As long as you follow the old Taoist to heaven and listen to the seal, you will need an eighth-turn golden elixir."
Before the Taibaijin Star descended to the lower realm, I received a message from the Jade Emperor’s spiritual consciousness, recruiting Sun Wukong to be an official in heaven. The conditions were arbitrary. As long as it was not a Nine-turn Golden Pill, a rare item for people with innate spiritual treasures, I could agree with any number of other resources.
The Nine-turn Golden Pill, which can make a person become a Daluo Golden Immortal, became a rarity many years ago. Even Taishang Laojun, who refined this pill, could not find the materials to refine it. , only a few stocks are left for those who are destined.
Although the eighth-turn golden elixir is not as good as the nine-turn golden elixir, taking one can make a person become a Taiyi Golden Immortal. It is equally valuable, and Laojun doesn’t have much in stock.
The golden elixir currently circulating on a large scale in the immortal world is only of the sixth grade, and the seventh grade needs to be rewarded by the Great Heavenly Lord, the Jade Emperor.
Taibai Jinxing opened his mouth with an eighth-turn golden elixir, which can be said to be full of sincerity.
After all, getting this elixir will allow Sun Wukong to instantly recover the excessive mana and stamina when he encounters a strong enemy.
To improve Sun Wukong’s realm, even the nine-turn golden elixir can’t do it, let alone the eight-turn golden elixir.
The biggest function of the Eight-turn Golden Elixir is to restore mana and blood.
"I only have an eighth-turn golden elixir, as if I am a work of God? Then my worth is too cheap!" Cheng Long would not let go of such an opportunity for a lion to open his mouth.
Taibai can make the decision and promise an eighth-turn golden elixir, which shows that the bottom line given by the Jade Emperor is far more than that.
"How many eighth-turn golden elixirs do you want? Too many are not enough. Laojun doesn't have much stock anymore." Taibai Jinxing gave Cheng Long a vaccination to prevent the other party from doing so. The lion opened his mouth.
“There aren’t many eight-turn golden elixirs, so let’s get a nine-turn golden elixir. In addition, give me one hundred and eighty nine-thousand-year-old flat peaches, and ten or eight ginseng fruits. These conditions are all met. , come again and invite me to heaven.”
“…”
Taibai Jinxing had a black line on his face.
There is not much inventory of the Eighth-Turn Golden Elixir. You still want the Nine-turn Golden Pill. Let’s not talk about whether this thing is still available. Even if the Great Heavenly Lord can take it out, it will have no effect on you!
But he definitely can't say this.
The Nine Transformations Golden Pill is not available to Cheng Long, but it is still okay to give it to someone who has no talent.
One pill can turn an ordinary person into an elixir that transcends the three realms and is not among the five elements. Many immortals are looking forward to it. The problem is that there are really only a few of the Nine Transformation Golden Pills!
Even if the Great Heavenly Lord asks Laojun for it, he may not be able to get it.
The 9,000-year-old flat peach and ginseng fruit are even more extreme.
It’s not that Heaven can’t get these things out, but there are more than 100 million of them.
Heaven will hold a peach conference every three thousand years, and every year it will reward some immortals with nine-thousand-year-old flat peaches. It takes three peach conferences to produce one crop of nine-thousand-year-old flat peaches.
And the output is very small.
Many times it is difficult to make ends meet.
It’s not a big problem to replace it with three-thousand-year-old flat peaches. You can produce three to five hundred of them, so the output is huge!
After every peach gathering, there is a surplus. Time after time, the three thousand-year flat peaches stored in the heavenly treasure house are not only 30,000 to 50,000, but also 30,000.
Ginseng fruit grows one crop for thousands of years, but only thirty fruits are produced in one crop.
Even if the new round of fruits has just matured, the Jade Emperor may not be able to ask for ten or eight.
This request is really outrageous.
"Fellow Taoist, your conditions are too high. It is impossible for the Jade Emperor to agree. The old Taoist can only promise to give you three eight-turn golden elixirs, ten nine-thousand-year-old flat peaches, and twenty six-turn golden elixirs. Thousand-year-old flat peach, and a ginseng fruit. "
Although the ginseng fruit is not yet mature, if he gets the Jade Emperor's command and goes to Wuzhuang to watch and ask for it, one will definitely be fine.
Zhen Yuanzi Daxian will definitely not eat them all every time. It is important to leave some for hospitality. After a few calamities, there will definitely be a lot of ginseng fruits in reserve.
"Five eight-turn golden elixirs, 15 nine-thousand-year-old flat peaches, 30 six-thousand-year flat peaches, and the ginseng fruit will be replaced by a hundred three-thousand-year flat peaches. Promise me and I will let you go to heaven, no. If you agree, then go out and turn right." Cheng Long pointed at the entrance of Shuilian Cave with a very determined attitude.
Seeing this scene, Taibai Jinxing said helplessly: "That's all, the old Taoist agreed. I hope the Jade Emperor won't blame me! Fellow Taoist, please follow me to heaven!"
"Easy to say, easy to say."
Sun Wukong smiled very happily. With this batch of resources, when he brings them back at the end of Journey to the West, his women will cause another surge in their cultivation.
The favored ones can even be directly promoted to Taiyi Golden Immortal.
"Young Master Lion opened his mouth, and Taibai Xingjun agreed. It seems that the Jade Emperor really cares about him. Then I have to work hard to practice. I dare not say that I can catch up with the Young Master, but at least I must keep the water curtain." The hole is promising..."
Looking at the young master who left with Taibai Jinxing, Qing Yi returned to Shuiliandong alone and began to understand the magical powers and secrets granted by the young master.
Limited by talent issues, Cheng Long only granted her three magical powers.
They are Nine Breaths Convincing Qi, Five Elements Escape and Flying Body Holding Traces. It was enough for her to practice for a lifetime.
And she was able to obtain these three Tiangang methods entirely because she stood in Cheng Long's perspective and privately eradicated the dog demon Abao.
Although Cheng Long didn't care about a dog demon whose cultivation was knocked down, Qing Yi was able to kill his former partner for himself, which was considered a sign of surrender.
Therefore, it is appropriate to teach Aunt Qing a few magical powers to enhance her strength.
……
Heaven.
Follow Taibai Jinxing and step into the Lingxiao Palace.
There was a feeling of familiarity and strangeness in Cheng Long's heart. The familiarity was naturally due to past experiences. He had been to Lingxiao Palace more than once.
The heavens in every world are similar.
However, the heaven in the vast world must have a lot of environment. The fairy spirit in the heaven in Journey to the West is particularly strong. If you were not an immortal, you would go to heaven, and you might even get drunk.
“In response to the Jade Emperor, Sun Wukong, the loose immortal from the lower realm, brought...”
“The Jade Emperor.”
Cheng Long followed Taibai Jinxing and bowed.
While inspecting it, the Jade Emperor said: "Sun Wukong, are you willing to join my heavenly court as an official?"
"Then it depends on whether the Great Heavenly Lord can meet my conditions."< br>
Cheng Long smiled.
Without any benefits, I have to join the heaven by myself. What a beautiful thought!
"How dare you speak rudely in front of His Majesty!" The Tota Arhat stepped forward and glared angrily, as if he wanted to strip Cheng Long alive.
"Who are you?"
Cheng Long turned to look at the tota 'Arhat' and said coldly: "The Great Heavenly Lord didn't even speak, do you have the right to speak here? Or should I say , you relied on someone to support you, even the Jade Emperor wouldn't let you go In your eyes?”
“Ah, I’m not, I don’t have it, don’t talk nonsense...”
Li Jing, the King of Tota, blushed at Cheng Long’s retort, saying that some things are not right. When it reaches the weight of four liang, it can't even bear a thousand pounds.
Although he still didn't know why Sun Wukong knew that there was someone behind him, it was wrong to say this in front of all the immortals.
This is a slap in the face in public!
He couldn't help but be angry.
"Hahaha, old man, the Great Heavenly Lord didn't say anything, and you jumped out in a hurry." Nezha, the famous rebel in the heaven, jumped out immediately and accused: "You still said that you didn't despise His Majesty?"
“Shut up!”
Li Jing turned around and glared at Nezha.
This matter... is getting darker and darker.
“I’m telling the truth, why aren’t you allowed to tell me?”
Nezha holds his head high, not afraid at all.
He didn’t believe that his Lao Deng dared to take him into the Linglong Pagoda in front of the Great Heavenly Lord.
"You..."
Li Jing was furious and wanted to strangle this rebellious boy to death immediately.
Unfortunately, he can’t beat him!
"Okay, how can it be appropriate for father and son to argue in front of all the immortals?"
The Jade Emperor felt happy when he saw Li Jing deflated. Sun Wukong had not officially After joining the group, the gods of the Buddhist faction became red-faced, which made him prefer to keep Sun Wukong instead of helping Buddhism to suppress the other party, so that he would eventually become a puppet of Buddhism.
"Your Majesty, this man talks nonsense and is just trying to sow discord! I am very loyal to you, as the sun and the moon can tell me, how dare I not take you seriously!"
Li Jing quickly expressed his loyalty, he I have never been so out of control like today, and the murderous look in my eyes has almost become reality.
On the contrary, Little Nezha saw that Cheng Long was indeed more and more pleasing to his eyes, and he had already made up his mind. After a while, Sun Wukong received the immortal job and the immortal mansion, and went to visit him to do his favors with Brother Sun. brother.
"Li Tianwang, respect should be taken seriously, not in your eyes all the time..." Cheng Long interrupted abruptly.
Li Jing: “…”
All the immortals smiled and said nothing, but many of them frowned.
Li Jing is not the only immortal family who does not take the Jade Emperor seriously. In addition to the Buddhist sect’s Li Jing, the Four Heavenly Kings and other immortals, there are also the Jiejiao immortals headed by Zhao Gongming and Jin Ling Shen Shen. , also did not take the Jade Emperor to heart.
If they had not all entered the list of gods and were bound by the list of gods, they would not even bother to go to court.
Just like explaining the teachings to the immortals.
After the Antarctic Immortal and Taiyi Zhenren took the throne of Liuyu Emperor, they have never been to Lingxiao Palace. If Lei Zhenzi, the great emperor of Gouchen, had not been in low cultivation, he would not have been seen all year round.
The Jade Emperor was eager to recruit Cheng Long to heaven because he wanted him to replace Lei Zhenzi and become the Great Gou Chen of the West.
The six emperors of heaven are not even Daluo Jinxian, it is really a loss of face.
"Old guy, everyone is not a fool. In daily life, have you ever respected the Great Heavenly Lord? Everyone will see it!" Nezha added with a smile.
Li Jing, who was already furious at the rebuke, really couldn't help but want to take action.
If the last bit of reason hadn't told him that the consequences of doing something in the Lingxiao Palace would be serious, Nezha would have been taken into the Linglong Pagoda in the next moment and endured endless pain.
In the end, it was Taibai Jinxing who smoothed things over and turned the topic back to Cheng Longti's conditions.
"Sun Wukong, Taibai agreed to your request before, and I agreed to all of them. Now are you willing to accept my imperial conferment?" The Jade Emperor had already received the divine consciousness transmission from Taibai Venus.
He didn't think Cheng Long's lion's mouth was too much.
The left and right are just resources.
These things are completely insignificant treasures to the Great Heavenly Lord at the pinnacle of quasi-sage.
"I do."
Cheng Long nodded decisively.
Being an official in heaven cannot be avoided. Even if the Jade Emperor lets him go and is willing to let him practice pure cultivation in the lower world, Buddhism will not let him do so.
Instead of thinking about guarding against Buddhism’s backhand every day in Huaguo Mountain, it is better to go to heaven and reap the benefits.
"Then I will confer you the title of Monkey King, the Monkey King, to supervise the three realms and command the three armies..." The Jade Emperor's words are not surprising and he will never stop. He will command the three armies and monitor the three realms at the very beginning. This power is not an ordinary one. , Comparing Zhenruo, it is not much different from the Six Imperial Guards in Heaven.
It depends on whether Cheng Long dares to use Monkey King's supervisory duties.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Cheng Long originally thought that he would be a moderate star king, but he never thought that the Jade Emperor would actually do it in one step and directly confer him the title of Monkey King.
Given such a big name, if you don’t do something practical next, you will definitely be criticized by the gods of the Buddhist faction, which will cause all kinds of conflicts, and you will make as much trouble as possible Heavenly Palace.
But he will never do this to make Buddhism happy... (End of chapter)
