In fact, Yunxiao and Jinling Holy Mother already knew where they were without Zhao Gongming opening his mouth.
In the chaos, there is no top or bottom, no left or right, the space is extremely unstable, and all kinds of chaotic beasts, including wind, thunder, and chaos, emerge in endlessly. It is the most dangerous place in the world.
However, the area in front of him was calm and even extremely peaceful.
The misty black-yellow light fell, and the light enveloped the area. Not only was there no thunder and wind, but even the space was stabilized.
"Brother, without further ado, let's get our things quickly and leave here." Yun Xiao said.
Based on their cultivation, neither the Gangfeng Thunder nor the Chaos Beasts could pose a real threat, not to mention the Qingping Sword above their heads given to them by the Master of Tongtian before he left.
However, there was always a feeling in Yunxiao's heart, as if there were many pairs of malicious eyes peering at them secretly.
This feeling became stronger as they moved closer to this area.
Yunxiao remained calm on her face, but in fact she had already poured her mana into the Qingping Sword above her head. If there was any abnormal movement, she would not hesitate to use the Qingping Sword to strike at it.
The cultivation of Notre Dame Jinling and Zhao Gongming were not as good as Yunxiao, but they were already Da Luo Jinxian, so they noticed something was wrong.
The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit holds a sword in one hand and a dragon-tiger jade in the other, guarding Zhao Gongming, always alert to the surrounding movements.
Zhao Gongming put his compass hands above his head in a respectful manner.
His compass was refined by Master Tongtian himself, and then given to the Holy Mother Wudang, just for today.
The compass has a diameter of three inches, six cents and five cents, and is measured at 365 degrees of the celestial body. There are nine palaces and eight trigrams on the outside, and a three-legged golden crow on the inside.
"Wow - wow -"
As a series of magic formulas were recited silently, the three-legged golden crow lit up with gleaming light. It actually came to life, with golden flames igniting all over its body. It flapped its wings and flew out from the compass, towards the foggy black-yellow light in the distance. Fly away.
Wherever the Golden Crow went, the black-yellow light retreated towards both sides, leaving a path.
"Let's catch up quickly." Zhao Gongming called to Jin Ling Shen Shen and Yun Xiao to follow closely behind Jin Wu and catch up.
Buzz!
At this moment, a strange light suddenly lit up in the void, and an unknown object shrouded in black mist flew towards the three of them.
The black mist continued to grow in size as it flew towards it, and when it got close, it had covered the sky and the sun like a mountain.
"I don't know whether to live or die!" The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit shouted sharply and directly sacrificed the Dragon Tiger Jade Ruyi in her hand.
As the direct disciple of the four major disciples of Jie Cult and Dou Mu Yuanjun, the head of the stars, the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit is the first golden phoenix born in the world, and the dragon, tiger and jade Ruyi are her accompanying spiritual treasures, which are infinitely powerful.
In the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, she single-handedly fought against the three masters Manjusri, Samantabhadra and Cihang without losing, which shows her strength!
At this time, there were countless pairs of eyes with good intentions in the darkness. The Golden Spirit Mother naturally wanted to scare the monkeys, and she used all her strength when she made a move.
Bang!
Dragon Tiger Jade Ruyi was surrounded by green light. After it was sacrificed, it was strong in the wind. In an instant, it became larger than the black mist. With a slight shake, the black mist was dispersed.
"I found you!" Our Lady of the Golden Spirit's eyes lit up, and she used her backhand to take out the Four-Elephant Tower of Innate Spiritual Treasures given to her by the Tongtian Cult Master, and threw it towards the void on the left.
Boom!
The Four-Elephant Tower hit the void heavily, as if it had fallen into the air, but it made another sound of hitting something real.
The void rippled like a river, and a strange man with the body of a tiger and the head of a man, covered with black feathers, flew out and turned around to escape.
He ran into Longhu Yu Ruyi head-on, and with a bang, he was beaten to pieces without leaving even a trace of his soul.
"The demons from outside the territory! How dare they show up!" Yun Xiao's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
When Pangu opened the world, three thousand chaos demons came to interfere, but they were all killed by Pangu with his sky-opening axe.
Some of these demon gods died, and the energy that escaped merged with the breath of chaos to form ferocious beasts that had no consciousness but only killing instincts.
Some remnant souls fled to the ancient wilderness, merged with the innate energy of creation, and were reborn as the earliest living beings at the beginning of the world.
Some remnant souls or soul fragments remained in the chaos, and gradually turned into extraterrestrial demons.
These extraterrestrial demons hated Pangu for killing their bodies, and they were also filled with hatred for the entire prehistoric world.
In ancient times, from time to time, extraterrestrial demons would invade the wilderness and cause endless killings.
Daozu Hongjun was in the Zixiao Palace in chaos just to suppress them.
After several cleanings, the extraterrestrial demons no longer dared to approach Honghuang and basically disappeared.
Unexpectedly, they would appear again now!
At other times, Yunxiao might have put in some effort to get rid of these extraterritorial demons to earn some merit, but today, she really didn't have the time!
"Don't worry about them, get the East Emperor Bell first." Yunxiao urged the Qingping Sword, and thousands of crystal clear jasper-like lotus leaves appeared, turning into a long river of sword energy, surrounding them.
Because the Immortal Killing Formation cannot be broken unless the four saints gather together!
The other saints were worried about the revenge of the leader of Tongtian, so they did not return the Four Swords of Zhuxian after the Catastrophe of Conferring Gods. This resulted in the Jiejiao not having the most precious treasure to suppress luck.
They must get the Donghuang Bell in order to suppress Jiejiao's luck and cope with the coming disaster.
Swish—swish—
Several more figures of extraterrestrial demons emerged from the chaos. Seeing that Yunxiao and the others were about to enter the area covered by the Donghuang Bell, they suddenly became anxious. They each used their magic weapons to break the long river of sword energy formed by the Qingping Sword.
But it seems extremely weak!
The long river of sword energy formed by these lotus leaves seems to grow. After one piece is broken, another one will soon grow.
At their speed, it would take at least half a day to destroy this long river of sword energy.
What's more important is that the demons outside the territory are extremely selfish and have to be wary of each other. They don't dare to do anything they want. They can only watch Yunxiao and the three disappear in the dark yellow light curtain.
A sound of unknown meaning and full of resentment came out of their mouths, and then disappeared.
The Donghuang Bell, also known as the Chaos Bell, has the power to suppress the "Hongmeng World", reverse the "time and space of the heavens", evolve the "mysteries of heaven", and refine the "earth, water, fire and wind".
Once Zhao Gongming gets the Chaos Bell, the whole chaos will be smooth for them.
When the time comes, they will be the ones who die!
On the other side, after Li Anran and Yang Jian had a drink, they returned to the prison, while Nezha temporarily stayed at Guanjiangkou.
What happened next was similar to Li Anran's speculation.
In order to atone for their sins, the Bull Demon King and Red Boy worked extra hard under Li Jing, and their methods against demons and ghosts were even more ruthless than those of the heavenly soldiers and generals.
Except for a handful of them who were escorted to heaven to seek rewards, the rest of the little demons were all killed without leaving a single one behind.
Including the monster's cave, it was burned to ashes, giving them no chance to resurrect.
Li Jing only felt that the Bull Demon King and his son were much easier to use than his evil son Nezha. Seeing that Nezha had not returned to heaven for a long time, he also beat out the people he sent, so he directly accused Nezha of being disobedient and unfilial.
In the end, the Jade Emperor fined Nezha half a year's salary and ordered Nezha to plead guilty to Li Jing, otherwise he would be severely punished.
Nezha naturally ignored it and just disappeared and went to the lower world to play.
Even Li Anran and Yang Jian didn't know where he was hiding.
But that doesn't matter.
With Nezha's strength and background, few people in the Three Realms can touch him or dare to touch him.
In addition, without Yang Jian, the god of justice, the heaven was in chaos and many things could not proceed.
The Jade Emperor also realized the importance of Yang Jian, but he was afraid that Yang Jian would bother him with the rules of heaven when he came back.
The Jade Emperor did not rush to recall Yang Jian, but asked Li Jing to temporarily replace Yang Jian as the god of justice.
I just waited for the Buddhist scripture study in Xitian to be over, and then found an excuse to call Yang Jian back and replace Li Jing.
Li Jing didn't know this, he just felt that he was now in control, so proud that he couldn't suppress the smile on his face.
But soon, Li Jing couldn't be happy anymore.
He was far less familiar with the laws of heaven than Yang Jian, and he had little experience in dealing with things in the three realms. He was so busy that his head was spinning, but he only got some doubts and complaints.
This made the Jade Emperor more determined to recall Yang Jian as soon as possible after the pilgrimage to the West.
At the same time, the Jade Emperor also used these things to beat Li Jing, who was kind to him, and made Li Jing be grateful to him and wish he could go up the mountain of swords and the sea of fire.
Well, it’s all just an act!
On the surface, Li Jing was loyal to the Jade Emperor, but in fact, he focused more on pleasing the Buddhists and used his power to help the Buddhists.
The Jade Emperor also saw all this, but did not expose it.
The most important thing about the order of the three realms is balance!
The conferment of gods back then seemed to be in compliance with God's will, but in fact it was entirely out of balance considerations.
The disciples of Chanjiao are responsible for the noble high-level immortals, while the disciples of Jiejiao are responsible for the low-level immortals who seem to be humble but are actually the cornerstone of the operation of heaven.
If there is a life-and-death hatred between the disciples of the two sects, they will inevitably threaten each other to achieve a balance.
Today, this is still the case!
It's just a matter of balancing the two sides, changing from the two religions of interpretation and interception to Taoism and Buddhism. There is essentially no difference!
In this heaven, Li Jing has never represented himself, but Buddhism and Lingshan.
Just like Yang Jian, the god of justice, represents Xuanmen.
They each have their own interests and demands, and if they are at odds with each other, only then can the order of the three realms be stabilized.
As the supreme master who controls the three realms, he only needs to stand aloof and watch with a cold eye, maintaining the balance.
But in the mortal world, Xiniu Hezhou, Xitian Buddhist scriptures are still continuing.
Because of the battle at Cuiyun Mountain, monsters such as the Golden-winged Dapeng Eagle, the Yellow-tusked Old Elephant, the Spider Spirit, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, and Sai Taisui were all killed and caught.
The plot behind the Flame Mountain is completely different from the original time and space.
Fortunately, there are enough demons and monsters in Lingshan. Without these, there are others. If things don't work out, he will send his boy disciples out to gather their own strength.
And because Taishang Laojun has given up on Buddhist and Taoist gambling, and because the Macaque King has the magical power of six ears to easily detect the identity and background of monsters, these disasters become more and more ordinary.
Except for Tang Seng, a mortal who is still ignorant, the rest of them are almost acting openly, and their routines are very fixed.
In the first step, the monster captured Tang Monk.
In the second step, the brothers came to the door.
The third step is to send reinforcements from heaven.
In the fourth step, the demon king is brought to the original owner.
The fifth step is to kill all the little monsters.
At the back, the Macaque King, Zhu Bajie, Sha Seng and the three others became more and more lazy and perfunctory. They were not in a hurry to save Tang Monk, but had to eat a full meal first. They were reluctant to work hard to fight monsters and feinted a gun directly into the sky to bring in rescue troops.
In the end, Guanyin couldn't bear it anymore and scolded them, and the situation improved slightly.
During this period, Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng also gradually discovered that the current Monkey King was not the Monkey King before, but the monster who pretended to be Sun Wukong.
However, they did not make any announcement.
Everyone comes here for merit and righteousness. As long as the Buddha doesn't say anything, it doesn't matter if it's true or false!
The real monkey on the other side, after returning to Huaguo Mountain, rarely settled down.
Ever since that day in the Heavenly Court, the monkey realized that his previous trouble in the Heavenly Palace and being crushed by the Five Elements Mountain might have been the plot of the Jade Emperor and the Tathagata, and he only felt that the water in the three realms was too deep and there were too many old silver coins.
His current situation seems to be safe, but in fact it is still very dangerous.
If the tight bandage on his head is not taken off for a day, he will not even have a chance to fight back in front of Lingshan!
The monkey immediately gave up the idea of visiting friends and playing with the monkey grandson, and concentrated on studying the tightening hoop.
However, the harvest was meager.
I don’t know what kind of material this tight band is made of. It is extremely hard. When you see the flesh taking root, it seems like it is growing on his head. If you exert any force, it will hurt. His eyes will swell, he will have a headache, and his forehead will be cracked.
He even tried to give up his head and his life, but it was no use!
When his new head grew, the band remained tight.
"Brother Li is well-informed and has great magic power. Why don't you ask Brother Li for help?"
Monkey was really frustrated and had no choice but to go to heaven to find Li Anran for help.
At this moment, the monkey's expression suddenly changed, he jumped up with excitement, took out the golden cudgel from his ear, and stared at the void in front of him with his fiery eyes.
"As expected of the Buddha's favorite, he is indeed quite capable!"
A sinister man's voice sounded.
The void rippled like water, and a black lotus exuding a strange and evil aura appeared out of thin air. It shed a piece of purple light downwards and condensed into a round-faced middle-aged man wearing a black robe and a black hood.
As soon as the monkey heard the word "Buddha", the monkey hair all over his body exploded, and a fierce light surged in his eyes, but he endured it.
He has not yet taken off the tightrope, but it is difficult for him to fall out with Lingshan.
The monkey clenched the golden cudgel in his hand and shouted sternly: "If the Tathagata already has that Sun Walker, why are you still looking for me?"
The black robe snorted coldly and said: "Who said that the Buddha I am talking about is Tathagata? I am talking about Wutian Buddha!"
"Buddha Wutian?!" The monkey was stunned. Although Lingshan was a fake compassionate person, he never lacked anything on the scene. This "Wutian" didn't sound like the name that a Buddha should have.
"Yes, Wutian Buddha."
The black-robed man clasped his hands together with a pious and respectful attitude, and said: "Sun Wukong, Buddha Wutian appreciates you very much and specially ordered me to come to Huaguo Mountain to find you and give you a chance to convert!"
"Bah!" The monkey was furious: "I don't care whether you are Tathagata Buddha or Wutian Buddha! You want me to be your lackey and dream!"
The monkey realized that the so-called Wutian Buddha and Tathagata were not in the same group, and he suddenly became courageous. He picked up the golden hoop and jumped up, hitting the black robe.
boom!
The golden cudgel passed through the black robe and made a big hole in the ground. The mountains shook and countless rocks and soil fell.
"Virtual shadow?" The monkey was startled. He took a closer look with his sharp eyes, but he still couldn't tell that the person in front of him was fake.
"Hahahahahaha!" Black Robe raised his head and burst into laughter and said, "This is just a small trick. Buddha Wutian has vast magical powers and boundless power. If you are willing to take refuge, you will definitely achieve the right goal."
Buddha, refuge, enlightenment...
All of these are taboo words for monkeys!
The monkey's eyes immediately turned red. The man in black was a shadow. The black lotus on his head was always real!
Without saying a word, the monkey jumped up and hit the black lotus.
Buzz!
The black lotus trembled slightly, washing out purple ripples.
The monkey's expression changed, and he felt as if he had hit the iron wall with a stick, and was ejected directly. He flipped several somersaults in the air before regaining his balance.
"Take another stick from my grandson!"
Just as the monkey was about to rush forward again, the black-robed cultivator disappeared, leaving only one sentence echoing in the water curtain.
"Sun Wukong, Buddha Wutian never forces himself on anyone. He said that if you want to take off the tight band on your head, take this black lotus and go to the abyss of darkness to find him. He will help you remove the tight band. Take it off."
The black lotus spun around, gradually shrank to the size of a palm, and fell into the monkey's hand.
The monkey subconsciously caught the black lotus, his expression changed, and after hesitating for a moment, he stuffed the black lotus into his arms, jumped up, and turned into a golden light and flew towards the heaven.
At first, the Jade Emperor broke up the court meeting because Yang Jian insisted on severely punishing the three golden-winged Dapeng Eagle monsters in accordance with the laws of heaven, but the due rewards were still there.
Although Monkey did not agree to serve as an official in the Heavenly Court, the Jade Emperor still gave him the right to freely enter and exit the Heavenly Court for his merit.
After verifying his identity, the monkey entered the Nantianmen and soon arrived outside the prison.
The monkey lowered his head and raised his hands to the heavenly soldiers guarding the door: "I want to see the prison god, please let me know."
"Ah?!" The heavenly soldier guarding the door on the left opened his mouth wide, looking confused.
The one on the right was much smarter. He quickly reacted and asked, "Are you Zhe Xingsun?"
The monkey instantly guessed what it was, nodded and said, "It's me."
The Heavenly Soldier looked astonished and said with a smile: "I'm telling you! Just now, Sun Xingzhe, who escorted Monk Tang to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures, came to heaven and invited my lord to come down to earth to help him succumb to demons. If you want to see my lord, you need to Wait here...Hey, why are you leaving!"
Before the Heavenly Soldier finished speaking, the monkey turned into a golden light and disappeared.
"The Abyss of Darkness...where is this? Why have I never heard of it before?"
The monkey stood outside the Nantian Gate, worrying about where to find the location of the Abyss of Darkness, when the black lotus in his arms flew in front of him.
The monkey asked: "Can you take me there?"
Buzz!
The black lotus flashed twice, as if in response, and then turned into a purple light and fled into the distance.
The monkey quickly chased after him.
Soon, it disappeared into the horizon.
