Chapter 31: If you don't go to this western sky, don't go!
Jiang Chen used the Da Luo Jin Dan extorted from Guanyin Bodhisattva on Ao Ling.
Yesterday, after she took the Taiyi Golden Pill, her cultivation had already soared to the middle stage of the Golden Immortal. On the way back, Jiang Chen used the Twelve Rank Pure World White Lotus to help her absorb all the power of the Great Luo Jindan, and her cultivation was like a bamboo, directly crossing the Taiyi Thunder Tribulation, and becoming a Taiyi Golden Immortal powerhouse.
This may be the fastest one in the Three Realms, from a human immortal to a Taiyi golden immortal.
It's just that the realm of promotion with the help of external forces is not very stable after all, and the strength is a little insufficient compared to those Taiyi Golden Immortals who have relied on years of cultivation to achieve it.
In this regard, Jiang Chen was going to erase the imprints of the Pure Willow Branch and the Seven-Rank Lotus Table, and then hand over these two treasures to Ao Ling for use. In the battle between the strong, the magic weapon is an important part of the strength.
"Now, Nezha already has a lot of magic weapons, and he has obtained a thirty-three-story golden Linglong Pagoda, crushing the powerhouses of the same level in the configuration of magic weapons. What Xiao Ao Ling has to do now is to stabilize the realm and adapt to the powerful power contained in himself. In the future, she will control the pure glass bottle I gave, the pure willow branches, and the seven-grade lotus platform, and her strength is not bad in the same level. β
"As for the Jiao Demon King, he is the strongest of the three, cultivating to reach the middle stage of the Taiyi Golden Immortal, and controlling the Chaos Bell and many magic weapons stolen from the Demon Clan's Heavenly Court back then. However, since I gave treasures to Nezha and Ao Ling, it is not good to favor one over the other. β
Jiang Chen was thinking about it, and was ready to give the Demon Emperor Sword he had just obtained to the Jiao Demon King.
After all, this product is quite loyal for the time being, and giving him some favors and letting him know that following Jiang Chen has a great future is also a clever strategy.
Jinghe Dragon Palace, Nezha saw Jiang Chen returning with Ao Ling with a full load, so he took the initiative to greet him.
"Nezha, you just took Taiyi Jindan, Pan Tao and Ginseng Fruit, and you should be in retreat, but why are you here?"
Jiang Chen looked at him and frowned.
Hearing this, Nezha sighed lightly and said with a wry smile: "Brother Jiang doesn't know, in the midst of the God Sealing Tribulation, a little of my true spirit has entered the God List, although I can enjoy eternal life, but I am also restricted by the God List, and the realm can no longer be improved." β
I see.
The list of gods is clearly a god, but it is actually a kind of imprisonment, using the lives of three hundred and sixty-five righteous gods to suppress the luck of the heavenly court. At the same time, the saint's disciples completed the killing, reaped the merits, and achieved fame.
The gods, including Nezha, are just sacrifices.
"Now, the God List is in the hands of Da Tianzun, and I will have the opportunity to discuss with him in the future and replace the quota of the God List."
After all, Nezha has now become Jiang Chen's right-hand man, and his strength is naturally impossible to be limited to the early stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal.
β¦β¦
In the following days, Jiang Chen devoted himself to the construction of the Jinghe Dragon Palace and the cultivation of the three subordinates.
He first spent three days erasing the imprints on the pure willow branches and the seven-rank lotus platform, and gave these two magic weapons to Ao Ling.
As for the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree Cane, Jiang Chen spent more than ten days, but he was still unable to erase the imprint left by the Quasi-Saint.
I can only leave it at that.
As for the Jiao Demon King, he got the golden pill and the magic weapon, and the Jinghe Dragon Palace was a paradise for him to cultivate. His realm and strength have improved by leaps and bounds, and while helping Jiang Chen train his troops, he has a vague posture of raising his realm to the late stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal.
Although the promotion of the Jiao Demon King is a good thing for Jiang Chen, the Jiao Demon King, as the most unstable factor among the three subordinates, once his strength surpasses Jiang Chen, it is possible to be the main enemy.
Therefore, there is only one way to keep him loyal, and while giving him benefits, the strength always overrides him. Only by pressing him firmly can he always maintain a sense of awe.
"It seems that I still have to find something to do and improve my strength."
Just as there is such a calculation, the electronic sound of the system starts,
γDing Dong!γ The great cause of Journey to the West is about to begin, and since the host has completed the 'Jinghe Dragon Ghost' story mission, the mission continues]
[Plot Mission: My Journey to the West, I am in charge (persuade the five-member team of the Journey to the West, let them understand their own situation, and not be a pawn of the Western Heavenly Buddhism Gate). According to the progress of the host's task completion, rewards will be issued as appropriate, and the rewards can be obtained up to: five million years of cultivation, innate treasures: Zhuxian Sword, Killing Immortal Sword, Trapping Immortal Sword, and Absolute Immortal Sword. Heavenly Killing Treasure Fragment: God-killing Spear (Spear Head)γ
Good guy, this time he directly made a big deal, five million years of cultivation and the four swords of the immortals.
If it is a collection of the four swords of Zhuxian and the Zhuxian array to form the Zhuxian sword array, it can be called the first killing array in ancient times. Its sharpness and power are unstoppable.
When the gods were sealed, the Tongtian Sect Master used this formation to defeat the four saints and block the Western Zhou Dynasty. Although it failed in the end, its strength is self-evident. In addition to the regret of not being able to suppress the luck, it can be called the first magic weapon of the gods.
As for the god-killing spear, it was once the thing of the Demon Ancestor Rahu, and it disappeared with the Demon Ancestor incarnating him in the sky in the early tribulation of the Dragon and Han Dynasty that year. The god-killing spear is known as the Heavenly Dao to kill strange treasures, and its power is so strong that it is not under the Pangu axe that opens the world.
Jiang Chen even had a bold idea, if the head of the god-killing spear was placed on the handle of the Pangu axe, wouldn't it have both the divine power of the Pangu axe and the sharpness of the god-killing spear?
Of course, this is just a hypothesis, and whether it is feasible or not is another matter.
The key is that since Jiang Chen had received the plot mission of Jinghe Dragon Ghost last time, this can be regarded as the main quest of Journey to the West. This time, the main quest didn't give him a chance to choose at all.
It's difficult, but if you're looking for excitement, follow through.
Jiang Chen just wanted to say, system, you are so sassy!
β¦β¦
The world, Chang'an City.
Now, Li Shimin has been returning to Yang for more than half a month, not only amnesty to the world, but also widely invited monks, held a water and land conference, and spent the soul of the dead.
In addition, all the territories under the jurisdiction of the Tang Dynasty, regardless of the state or county, have set up the 'Three Realms Water God Shrine' to worship Jiang Chen.
Incense offering is one of the important sources of the strength of the immortals.
It's just that for Jiang Chen, who is burdened with a system, this kind of power is just a drop in the bucket.
"Brother, is this Chang'an City, it's so lively!"
Ao Ling followed Jiang Chen to Chang'an City, and when he saw such a prosperous scene for the first time, he suddenly became playful. Jumping up and down behind Jiang Chen, look at this, touch that, anyway, everything is new.
"Haha, we're not here to play this time, we have something to do. After the deed is completed, I will definitely take you to Chang'an City for a few days. β
Jiang Chen touched Ao Ling's little head and smiled dotingly.
"Hee-hee, thank you, brother!"
Ao Ling's face was like a peach blossom, and he smiled with open eyebrows.
The two went around and came to the Huasheng Temple in Chang'an City.
As the largest Buddhist temple in Chang'an City, Huasheng Temple now has Master Xuanzang gathered 1,200 monks to perform the wonderful scriptures here.
Li Shimin had already finished the early dynasty, led many civil and military officials, took the phoenix chariot and dragon car, left the Jinluan Treasure Palace, and came to the Huasheng Temple to make incense.
It's really a day of prosperity, ten thousand auspicious lights. The benevolent wind is light and swaying, and the sun is very beautiful. Thousands of officials wear the front and back, and the five guards are lined up on both sides.
Li Shimin arrived in front of the temple, got out of the chariot, led hundreds of officials, and worshiped the Buddha and incense.
Chen Xuanzang preached from morning to night, and Li Shimin also spent three fasts in the temple and returned in the evening.
Until the emperor's chariot was far away, Jiang Chen took Ao Ling to manifest in the temple and asked to see Xuanzang.
In the Daxiong Treasure Palace, Xuanzang has kind eyebrows and kind eyes, white skin and clean face, according to the aesthetics of the Tang Dynasty, he is definitely a beautiful man.
He is the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi, the second disciple of the Buddha, although he has become a mortal, he has a little true spirit that is immortal and has a unique vision. When he saw Jiang Chen and Ao Ling, his eyes suddenly lit up, his hands were folded, and he said politely: "Two, the poor monk is the head." The two are not ordinary people, waiting for poor monks, I don't know what is going on? β
Jiang Chen stood on his chest with one hand,
"Master, if I say that what you have learned all your life is Hinayana Buddhism, and that you will not be able to ascend to heaven for the dead, but only for the mundane and the light. Would you like to believe this? β
As soon as these words came out, Xuanzang's hand that was beating the wooden fish suddenly stopped, and an unnatural look flashed in his eyes.
But he was in a good state of mind, and he quickly overshadowed the look.
"Amitabha, the donor said that what the poor monks are learning is Hinayana Buddhism, so can you tell the poor monks what is the beauty of the so-called Mahayana?"
Chen Xuanzang said unhurriedly.
"The so-called Mahayana Buddhism can transcend the deceased and ascend to heaven, overcome hardships and get rid of suffering, cultivate immeasurable longevity, and be able to do nothing."
Jiang Chen's momentum was like a rainbow, and he said loudly.
Chen Xuanzang seemed a little displeased,
"Oh? Since this is the case, then please also ask the donor to teach Mahayana Buddhism a thing or two, so that the poor monks can open their eyes. β
This reaction can be described as normal.
After all, he had been in a temple since birth, where he had been practicing Theravada Buddhism. Now that he has studied for thirty or forty years, he is already the chief archmage of Datang. Now that a person has come out and completely denied what he has learned all his life, if he can gladly accept it, then it will be a ghost.
"Haha, the so-called Mahayana Buddhism...... I won't. β
Jiang Chen said with a smile.
Hearing this, Chen Xuanzang was stunned for a moment, spread his hands, and threw the wooden fish in his hands on both sides.
"Donor, are you playing with the poor monk, believe it or not, the poor monk recites a sutra for you?"
At this moment, it was Jiang Chen's turn to be stunned.
Good guy, what about the good monks, it turns out that you are such a Xuanzang.
"Could it be that I reversed the number of days, and even Tang Seng's side was affected?"
Jiang Chen secretly guessed.
Now, that's all he can think about.
Seeing that the monk was about to recite the Sutra of the Past Life if he didn't agree with him, Jiang Chen hurriedly smiled and said, "Master, don't be impatient, I didn't say this, I said it for others." Seven days later, at the land and water conference, an old monk will come forward to make trouble. That is the manifestation of Guanyin Bodhisattva, to transform you to go to the West Heaven to learn scriptures, and to spread the Mahayana Buddhism of the West Heaven through your hands in the Southern Zhanbu Continent. β
When Xuanzang heard this, he couldn't help but look soothed and smiled.
"Guanyin Bodhisattva, enlighten me? Haha, thanks to the poor monk's accumulation of virtue and good deeds on weekdays, he was taken care of by the Bodhisattva and was selected in the vast sea of people. This time, the poor monk will surely be famous for thousands of years. β
He opened his mouth to laugh, and Jiang Chen laughed too,
"Master, don't be too happy, this is a hundred and eight thousand miles to the West Tianling Mountain, and there are demons and monsters along the way. You will go through fourteen years, step by step to Lingshan, and more than a dozen of them, you will be caught by the demon king in the soup pot and made into a snack. β
As soon as these words came out, the smile on Xuanzang's face immediately froze,
"Amitabha, this Western Heaven, don't go!"
