I am submissive in Journey to the West, I strike hard at the gods

Chapter 184 Heading to Kunlun Mountain

The Four Swords of Zhu Xian are not the ultimate killing weapon in themselves.

This is something that most of the immortals and gods agree on. The real killing treasure is the God-killing Spear in the hands of the Demon Ancestor Rāhu.

However, the Four Swords of Zhu Xian plus the sword formation diagram are different.

The Four Swords of Zhu Xian plus the sword formation diagram are top-level treasures that even a saint cannot escape from.

The God-killing Gun is simply not comparable to it in this regard.

The presence of the Four Swords of Zhu Xian shows that...

This means that the younger generation in front of him is not only protected by Saint Taiqing, but also by Master Tongtian!
The protection of two saints!
There are two of them.

Randeng finally retreated a little.

Although saints cannot interfere in the ancient world, this is subject to certain conditions.

The three corpses that the saint cut off were not the saint himself.

Saints cannot interfere, but the three corpses can interfere.

Laojun works in heaven and cannot easily come down to the mortal world.

Even if he is the three corpses of a saint, he still has to abide by the rules of heaven.

But this is not necessarily the case for Tongtian Taoist.

Tongtian Daoren’s character is mine. Don’t even think about provoking him. If you provoke me, I will make you understand what cruelty is.

During the great calamity of the Conferred Gods, Tongtian Taoist didn't need to die at all. If he hadn't been protecting his own son, he, as a saint, could still be on top!

Therefore, Randeng was not afraid of Laojun, because Laojun had no history of protecting his own children.

After all, there were only two or three cats and kittens in the house, so Laojun had no chance to protect them and naturally would not leave any impression on people.

The impression left by Tongtian Taoist is very deep.

"My friend is really lucky."

"In that case, it is I, the poor monk Meng Lang, who is the one who is careless."

After saying this, Randeng was about to leave.

But this is not a place where he can leave or come as he pleases.

Just as he was about to leave, a dragon roar was heard from the sky.

This dragon roar is different from the normal dragon roar.

The normal dragon roar is so majestic and righteous that ordinary mortals cannot help but bow down in worship.

There was something ethereal about the dragon's roar, and it did not have the momentum to make people bow down in worship.

"Haha, this place is so lively. It's rare to see disciples from the three religions gathered together."

Just as he finished speaking, a huge bright yellow dragon descended from the sky.

This giant dragon has an elegant and fairy-like aura all over its body, which is completely different from the East China Sea dragon clan that Jiang Wang had seen before.

"Who is this fellow Taoist?" Jiang Wang asked curiously.

The bright yellow dragon turned around and turned into a middle-aged man in a bright yellow Taoist robe.

He bowed to Jiang Wang and Bai Ze.

"Hello, fellow Taoists. I am Huang Long, a disciple of the Chan Sect, and my teacher is Yuanshi Tianzun."

Yellow dragon?

Jiang Wang looked up and down at the Taoist in front of him, marveling at him.

According to various rumors in the Heavenly Palace, this Taoist Huanglong seems to have appeared very many times.

Of course, he does not always appear in a positive direction. In many cases, Taoist Huanglong’s appearance is more like a comedian in an opera than a great ancient being.

Yes, the funny one.

Because this Taoist Huanglong was of a very high seniority, he was younger than the Three Thousand Purple Sky Guests, so those who came after him nominally had to call him "senior".

But this is where the Taoist Huanglong’s misery lies!

He is a tragic figure in the eyes of many younger generations.

How sad is it?

——No apprentice, no magic treasure, no good mount, no powerful spells, no brains, no victories.

Yes, this is Taoist Huanglong.

There are no records of his actions in the ancient times.

But in the Conferred God Tribulation, Taoist Huanglong took action four times in total.

The first time, he fought against Zhao Gongming, and then nothing happened.

Zhao Gongming is the eldest senior brother of the outer sect of Jiejiao, and is extremely powerful. Although he and Taoist Huanglong are also fellow disciples, he showed no mercy to the people of Chenjiao during the Conferred God Tribulation.

Taoist Huanglong provoked Zhao Gongming, cursing him and saying that Zhao Gongming should be included in the List of Gods.

As a result, Zhao Gongming caught Huanglong Zhenren with the Dragon Binding Rope as soon as he finished speaking, and hung him on the flagpole, which brought shame to the immortals of the Chan sect. In the end, it was the third-generation disciple Yang Jian who rescued Yang Jian.

The second time, Taoist Huanglong came to Yunxiao!
Who is Yunxiao? Yunxiao is a disciple of Jiejiao who is even more powerful than Zhao Gongming! If the three Xiaos join forces, Yuanshi Tianzun will not be able to send his disciples to fight, but will go down in person.

Because he knew that his disciples could never be a match for the Three Goddesses.

This is indeed the case. Zhenren Huanglong had the three flowers on his head and the five qi in his chest cut off in the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation, and became a mortal. In the end, it was Yuanshi Tianzun and Laozi who joined forces to rescue him.

The third time was even worse. Huang Long faced a Golden Immortal named Lu Yue. Lu Yue was a little special. Although he was a Golden Immortal, because of his special method of cultivation, except for the three Human Emperors of Huoyun Cave who could cause harm to him, it was difficult for others to restrain Lu Yue.

Huang Long naturally could not defeat Lu Yue, and was saved only by the third-generation disciples Yang Jian and Nezha.

The fourth time Huang Long fought was against Ma Sui, but to be precise, it couldn't even be called a battle.

Huang Long just followed the Taoist Master Ran Deng to take a look at the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation when he was caught by Ma Sui. Ma Sui put a golden hoop on Huang Long and he was defeated again.

Every time he suffered a crushing defeat, it was because Huang Long made arrogant remarks first and then got slapped in the face later.

Perhaps the only thing that showed him to be very much like the Twelve Yuxu Immortals was that he was very punctual. He participated in almost all the battles in the Conferred God Tribulation, and he was very enthusiastic and was always the first to arrive.

It was this immortal who loved to show off and was nagging during the Conferred Gods Tribulation. Among the several forces in the entire Conferred Gods Tribulation, the only one who was willing to listen to him was Wen Zhong from the opponent camp, who later became Puhua Tianzun.

Jiang Wang was particularly surprised when he heard the news for the first time.

After all, the two sides were fighting fiercely at the time. Who would have thought that the people in the two camps could get along harmoniously?

Seeing Jiang Wang staring at him with a strange look, Taoist Huang Long smiled awkwardly: "Why are you looking at me like that, young friend? Could it be that you have heard of my name, Huang Long?"

Heard of it.

Jiang Wang said this in his heart, but smiled at Huang Long and said, "What brings you to the East China Sea? Are you also like this ancient Buddha, inviting me to sit with him on Mount Kunlun?"

Jiang Wang was really just joking.

But when he saw Taoist Huanglong's eyes light up, he realized that the other party really came to invite him to sit for a while on Mount Kunlun.

"Young friend, are you willing to go to Kunlun Mountain with me? My fellow disciples and I are eagerly waiting for you. If you go, I'm afraid they will be overjoyed." Taoist Huanglong is sincere and his attitude is much better than that of the ancient Buddha Ran Deng.

The ancient Buddha Ran Deng did not leave either. Having lost face in front of Jiang Wang, he just kept watching Jiang Wang and Taoist Huanglong communicate quietly.

When he heard that Jiang Wang actually took the initiative to propose to go to Kunlun Mountain, the ancient Buddha Ran Deng became anxious.

What do you mean?
You are going to Kunlun Mountain now, are you going to look for Yuanshi Tianzun?
You already have the protection of two saints, and you're still thinking of a third saint for help?
Are you greedy?

Randeng could not tolerate it any longer. If this matter were to spread back to Lingshan, the ancient Buddha’s lineage would never have a chance to turn things around.

No one knew what Randeng did, but after the golden lotus he sat on emitted bursts of light, the ancient Buddha stopped moving. He just stood quietly on the surface of the East China Sea, watching Jiang Wang and Taoist Huanglong communicate in silence.

"Senior, I wonder why the Twelve Yuxu Immortals invited me to Kunlun Mountain?" Jiang Wang asked curiously.

He has connections with all three Xuanmen religions, but if he had to choose the one with the least intersection among the three, it would definitely be the Chan religion.

Among the disciples of the Chan school, the first person Jiang Wang came into contact with was Nezha the Third Prince.

This great god was very easy to communicate with. At that time, Jiang Wang was still a small heavenly soldier, and the other party did not look down on him but instead maintained a unified attitude.

However, ever since the incident with the dragon clan, Jiang Wang has never had any contact with Nezha the Third Prince again.

Later, Jiang Wang had another brief exchange with Yang Jian, but Yang Jian seemed to have a little prejudice against Jiang Wang.

The few times I came into contact with Jiang Wang, his attitude was always very cold.

His coldness was not the kind of coldness of the god of justice, but the real "coldness", a coldness with prejudice.

Apart from these two great gods, Jiang Wang seemed to have never communicated with anyone from the Chan sect.

Most of the people in the Chan Sect are true practitioners, and they rarely appear in heaven.

In this case, even if Jiang Wang wanted to have any contact with them, he couldn't do it.

You can't just run out of heaven and make friends every day, right? How can you?

Jiang wants to do it, but the laws of heaven won't allow it.

"It's not that we want to see you, it's mainly that Master wants to see you." Huang Long said.

Jiang Wang was even more puzzled.

The teacher of the Twelve Yuxu Immortals is Yuanshi Tianzun, right?

He and Yuanshi Tianzun have no connection at all.

What does this saint mean?
It's impossible that just because he is a saint, he thinks he is so powerful and ask Jiang Wang to rush to Kunlun Mountain to pay homage, right?

How can it be!
There are also two saints behind me. Oh, no, if you include Queen Nuwa, there are three saints!
How can three saints be afraid of you?
Forget it.

I should ask Master Huanglong why his teacher wants to see me.

Jiang had some wild thoughts, but in the end he still felt a little timid.

Saints all have some quirks.

This Yuanshi Tianzun attaches great importance to rules.

Hierarchy is also a rule.

If Jiang Wang rejected Master Huanglong right now, he might be remembered by this saint.

Being remembered by a saint is not a good thing.

The other person always finds a way to disgust you in various ways, but you can't do anything about it.

"Why does your master...the saint, want to see me?" Jiang Wang asked.

Huang Long Zhenren said very straightforwardly: "Of course it's because of your identity. You are suspected of..."

Suspicious?

Suspected what?
You go on.

How does Zhenren Huanglong make Jiang Wang feel now?

Even though the other person was clearly speaking, everything in the world seemed to be preventing him from making any sound.

Zhenren Huanglong seemed to be in a state of being silenced.

"Senior, what are you talking about? I didn't hear a word."

As Jiang Wang spoke, he glanced at Bai Ze beside him.

Bai Ze shook his head, seemingly unclear about what was going on.

Huang Long Zhenren was still talking passionately, as if he didn't hear Jiang Wang's words at all. Even when Jiang Wang waved twice in front of him, he didn't seem to stop. Jiang Wang frowned, feeling something was wrong.

Could it be the actions of a saint?
That's not right.

A saint cannot interfere in the affairs of the ancient world, and the three corpses of a saint cannot use the saint's authority.

Given Huanglong Zhenren’s current situation, it seems that no one except a saint can achieve this level, not even a quasi-saint.

A quasi-saint can kill a Golden Immortal, but he cannot deprive a cultivator who is close to the Golden Immortal of his sense of existence and cognition.

To be precise, it’s not that the quasi-saint cannot do it, but that heaven and earth will not allow it.

This is the authority that belongs to saints, and quasi-saints also have it.

However, quasi-saints cannot exercise such authority in the prehistoric world.

They can only exercise similar authority in the small world they have created for themselves.

It is impossible to do this in the ancient times.

Heaven and earth will not allow it, and the laws of nature will not allow it.

After a long while, Huang Long Zhenren seemed to have finished speaking. He looked at Jiang Wang with an unsatisfied look, "My friend, this is the situation. Do you understand?"

Jiang Wang stared at Master Huang Long, and finally shook his head: "What did the senior say just now? No, to be precise, were you talking to me just now?"

Huang Long was stunned.

He looked at Jiang Wang, then at Bai Ze, and glanced at Randeng. Finally, he looked around and seemed to realize something. His face turned pale. "My friend, I can't tell you the reason in detail. You will know when you come back to the mountain with me."

Jiang Wang sighed when he saw the look on Master Huanglong's face.

He probably guessed who had just silenced Master Huanglong.

It’s definitely not Yuanshi Tianzun.

Saints are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the ancient world. At present, it seems that only Tongtian Taoist has been lifted from this ban.

However, Tongtian Taoist's situation is somewhat special now. Although his ban has been lifted, after the collapse of Jiejiao, he seems to have no interest in intervening in the affairs of the prehistoric world.

No other saint could do anything similar.

Then there were only two saints left in the prehistoric world who could accomplish this.

One is a mysterious saint in the chaos, the immortal Yangmei who is rumored to have achieved enlightenment earlier than the Taoist Ancestor.

However, Jiang Wang felt that it was unlikely that it was this saint.

Because this saint rarely appeared in the prehistoric world, there was only one record of him throughout the entire prehistoric history.

That was something that happened before the Taoist Ancestor became a saint. It is said that the Great Immortal Yangmei and the Taoist Ancestor met on a narrow road and finally had a fight.

The result is predictable, Daozu lost, but no one knows the specific process.

This was the only record of the immortal Yangmei.

Jiang Wang has some connections with the immortal Yangmei. He has a willow branch in his hand that seems to be given by the immortal Yangmei?

Excluding this Yang Mei Immortal, the only possible answer is...

Jiang Wang looked up at the sky and silently bowed to it.

It must be the Taoist ancestor.

One hundred percent it’s Daozu.

Jiang Wang had already guessed that Daozu had noticed him when he first crossed over, but had never exposed him.

Zhenren Huanglong obviously wanted to say something just now, which should be something of leaking the secret, but Daozu noticed it and silenced him.

In that case... let's go to Kunlun Mountain with Master Huanglong.

Anyway, the Human Teaching and the Orthodox Teaching are originally one and the same. The status of the Great Master Xuandu in the Orthodox Teaching is said to be on the same level as that of the Immortal Master Nan Ji!

As a disciple of the great master Xuandu, Jiang Wang felt that no matter how bad his job was, he would at least be able to sit on a cushion when he went to Kunlun Mountain, right?

Besides, Jiang Wang was not planning to stay in the East China Sea any longer. He felt that he had caused a big disaster with the incident of the Spirit Stone Monkey.

Now he has not only provoked Lingshan, but even the two reclusive saints of the Western religion may have been provoked by him. If possible, going to Kunlun Mountain to take refuge would be a good idea.

Lingshan has a huge influence and many believers.

There are a terrifying number of believers in Lingshan, and many of them are fanatics.

In this respect, the Heavenly Court cannot compare with it!

There are no believers in heaven.

Some are shallow believers, or believers in pragmatism.

The former is a small believer in gods and immortals. Although he prays to gods every day, he hopes that the gods can come down to earth to help people.

But in fact, everything they do is what they believe in and can only be done if they believe in "man can conquer nature" and "constantly strive for self-improvement".

As for the latter believers of pragmatism, that is even more outrageous.

They believe in immortals and gods, and their main goal is to see if the immortals and gods are useful before I believe in them or not.

If it is useful, believe it; if it is useless, forget it and don’t believe it. Wait until it is useful next time.

This is the human race, the protagonist of heaven and earth.

He claims to believe in all kinds of gods and immortals, but in reality he does some hard work to improve himself.

Of course, the believers of Lingshan must be excluded from the human race here.

In the Buddhist kingdom established by the Buddhas of Lingshan, there are too many believers. Some of these believers truly believe in the Buddha's teachings, while others believe in them mistakenly.

What does this misbelief amount to?

It's like being cheated, but there's no way to back out.

Most of the beliefs in Lingshan are compulsory. If you believe, you will enter the Buddha's kingdom and enjoy "paradise". Want to get out? No way. Just recite scriptures and chant Buddha's name every day. You don't need to suffer the pain of reincarnation. How wonderful!

This is also the fundamental reason why Jiang Wang feels he is different from Lingshan Lu.

He was a human, a disciple of the Human Religion. Naturally, he couldn't stand the fact that humans stayed in the Buddhist kingdom forever and couldn't reincarnate.

However, no matter how much he couldn't stand it, his biggest backer, the Great Master Xuandu, was now obsessed with exploring the exotic world and was not in the prehistoric world. If something really happened, he couldn't count on the Great Master Xuandu.

As for the Grand Master, isn't it forbidden for him to interfere in the affairs of the ancient world? Otherwise, why would he give in step by step?
As for the Great Celestial Lord... Jiang Wang couldn't guess.

He was also not sure whether the Great Heavenly Venerable would engage in a full-scale conflict with Lingshan for him.

There probably was no such plan.

Even if the Great Celestial Lord really helps him, it should be on a small scale, or even narrowed down to individual great celestial gods, and will not affect the entire heaven.

This kind of help is better than no help.

There is no way, Lingshan is too big.

Take the four great Bodhisattvas for example; quite a number of immortals and gods in heaven have to give them some distance.

Because these four great Bodhisattvas were not from Lingshan in their early years, they all became monks later.

Before entering Lingshan, many immortals and gods had been taken care of by these four Bodhisattvas!
If a conflict really occurred, how many immortals and gods would retreat when seeing the Bodhisattva? It is incalculable.

If this situation really happens, it will bring shame to the Great Celestial Venerable, which is not a good thing.

There are also two saints of the Western Church. Well, actually, the threat they pose to Jiang Wang is not as great as that of Lingshan.

Success is due to a saint, and failure is also due to a saint.

Precisely because they are saints, their threat is greatly reduced.

Jiang Wang thought about it and finally bowed to Huang Long Zhenren: "Please lead the way, senior. Also, senior, I think you came to the East Sea for more than just this matter, right?"

Although many of the Twelve Yuxu Immortals had left, there were still seven or eight left. In addition, there were non-staff people such as Yun Zhongzi, the Immortal of Fortune, who were not among the Twelve Immortals. There were so many disciples of the Chan Sect in the entire Kunlun Mountain. Why did the Taoist Master Huang Long come?

There must be a special reason.

Otherwise, according to Jiang Wang's understanding of Master Huanglong, the Twelve Yuxu Immortals and other cultivators of the Chan Sect would not have allowed Huanglong to come alone.

Everyone knows that Huang Long is a typical example of someone who is incompetent.

If we let him come, whether he can get things done or fail is a problem!

Huang Long avoided her gaze and said, "My friend, please follow me. We can talk slowly on the way."

"Okay." Jiang Wang nodded, and looked at Bai Ze: "Senior, will you come with me?"

"Let's go together. I just happened to be going to Kunlun Mountain to meet a friend."

"Row."

Although I don’t know what friends this person has in Kunlun Mountain, he can go if he wants to, as long as he doesn’t do anything secretly.

As for the ancient Buddha Dipankara
Jiang Wang glanced at Randeng, who was sitting cross-legged on the lotus seat leisurely and contentedly, and seemed not to care about Jiang Wang's whereabouts.

His calm look immediately confused Jiang Wang.

My goodness, he just wanted to kidnap someone, but now he is so calm? Is it time for the sage?

But since this ancient Buddha didn't make any moves, that's not bad either, as it saves me from having to fight with him.

Jiang Wang knew very well that the other party couldn't do anything to him.

When the Linglong Tower of Mysterious Heaven and Earth and the Four Swords of Zhu Xian were deployed simultaneously, this powerful man from ancient times had no means of counterattack.

"Why are you looking at me, my friend? Do you want to go back to Lingshan with me? If so, I will welcome you." Ran Deng saw Jiang Wang looking at him, and said kindly, "I still want to advise you not to go to Kunlun. Going to Kunlun may not bring any good results."

"Can we eat good fruits by going to your Lingshan Mountain?" Zhenren Huanglong responded immediately.

Only after he finished saying this did he realize that something seemed strange, and he quickly explained to Jiang Wang: "My friend, I didn't mean that. I welcome you to be our guest at Kunlun."

"You are not the only Yuxu sect member in Kunlun! How can you represent the entire Kunlun?"

"Although not all the people in Kunlun Mountain are my Yuxu disciples, the Queen Mother of the West has always been on good terms with my teacher. I think they will not have any objections to my teacher's instructions."

When Ran Deng saw Huang Long take the initiative to answer the question, he was delighted. He had already made some preparations and now he had confidence again.

Huang Long is a typical immortal who cannot speak. If he were to lose face in front of Jiang Wang, this trip to Kunlun Mountain might not be smooth.

Unfortunately, Ran Deng underestimated Jiang Wang's character, and did not know that Jiang Wang actually had another understanding of Huang Long.

So much so that his words not only did not make Jiang Wang dislike Shang Huanglong, but made Jiang Wang dislike him even more.

Those who are good at talking do not show the characteristics of being strong.

"Senior, there is no need to say more to the ancient Buddha. Let's go and talk about it when we get to Kunlun Mountain."

"Thank you for your understanding." Huang Long breathed a sigh of relief.

Randeng didn't do anything else. He had done everything he should have done. Now it depended on what his ancient Buddha lineage planned.

Become a big one or swallow your anger.

After bidding farewell to the old Dragon King of the East China Sea with an apologetic look, Jiang Wang, Huang Long and Bai Ze flew towards Kunlun Mountain.

On the way, Jiang Wang also asked Bai Ze for advice.

"Senior, will the aquatic disaster cause any trouble to the old Dragon King?"

"Don't worry, my friend. If the aquatic creatures along the coast of the four seas caused a big trouble and brought trouble to the human race, my old friend might have to bear some responsibility. Now it's just the aquatic creatures causing trouble in the deep East China Sea, so nothing serious will happen." Bai Ze explained slowly.

Huang Long also chimed in, "You are right, Daoist friend. The Four Seas are the private land of the Dragon Clan. No matter what happens, it will not affect the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas, provided that what happens in the Four Seas does not affect the surrounding human race."
