Journey to the West: Demon Emperor: Beginning as a Little Toad

Chapter 244 Taiyi Golden Immortal
After reaching the Great Perfection of the Golden Immortal, one can gather a huge amount of spiritual energy through breathing and condense the five energies in the chest, then one can formally enter the realm of the Taiyi Golden Immortal.

And in this process, how to condense the five energies in the chest is the most important!
Taiyi Golden Immortal, his realm is far beyond that of Golden Immortal, which is mainly due to the existence of the five qi in his chest.

These five elements are gold, wood, water, fire and earth. They are the five original elements of the evolution of the universe and the basis of all things in the universe. They contain the most profound Taoism between heaven and earth.

Once the creatures in the ancient times condense the five energies in their chests, they will be able to get closer to the laws of heaven and earth; their understanding of all things and laws of heaven and earth will be far beyond that of golden immortals.

After condensing the five energies, the magic power and might that Taiyi Golden Immortal can display are incomparable to those of the Golden Immortal realm.

However, the condensation of the five energies is not an easy task, as their levels and foundations directly determine the strength and potential of the cultivator after the breakthrough.

The five qi are divided into the qi of the ordinary five elements, the qi of the acquired five elements, the qi of the innate five elements, and the qi of the innate five elements' origin.

Naturally, the innate five elements' original qi is superior to the innate five elements' qi.

The innate five elements' qi are superior to the acquired five elements' qi.

The acquired five elements' qi is superior to the ordinary five elements' qi.

Normally.

Xiao Chen is a little toad, naturally a acquired creature. The five energies that he can condense in his chest are, at best, the acquired five elements' energies.

but.

In Xiao Chen's hand is the "innate yin and yang energies" of the golden-winged Roc.

Wuji gives birth to Taiji, Taiji gives birth to Yin and Yang, Yin and Yang give birth to Four Symbols, Four Symbols give birth to Five Elements, which are gold, wood, water, fire and earth.

The five elements give birth to all things, and all things in the world cycle through all things, all in the world. The five elements of heaven and earth, yin and yang intersect, and the five elements blend, which is also called yin and yang.

The five elements of qi were originally evolved from the two energies of yin and yang.

Therefore.

The "innate yin and yang energies" can be transformed into the "innate five elements energy" for use by Xiao Chen.

……

There are no years in the mountains, and the years of cultivation are endless.

Fourteen years have passed in a flash.

Xiao Chen opened his eyes, and the power of the Taiyi Golden Immortal emanated from him, and this power was far beyond that of an ordinary Taiyi Golden Immortal.

"It only took me fourteen years to break through to the Taiyi Golden Immortal this time."

"It's all thanks to the golden-winged Roc's innate yin and yang energy."

Xiao Chen whispered softly.

The qualifications of the King of Golden Horn are actually very ordinary, he is just an ordinary little toad.

He is certainly not as good as Sun Wukong, who is "the 'immortal embryo' that has been nurtured by the beauty of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon since the beginning of creation."

It's not as good as the ancient scorpion monster, the eternal poisonous scorpion, or the blood of the fierce beast like the Bull Demon King...

With his qualifications, even if he had cheats, it would take him dozens or even hundreds of years of seclusion to break through to the Taiyi Golden Immortal level.

but.

The "innate yin and yang energies" of the golden-winged Roc helped him a lot and greatly shortened the time it took him to break through.

In fact, he had considered refining the "innate yin and yang energies" of the golden-winged Roc into a magical power or a magic weapon.

However, Xiao Chen finally decided to transform these "innate yin and yang energies" into "innate five elements energy" to condense the five energies in his chest.

After all, the five energies in the chest are the foundation of Taiyi Jinxian's Taoism.

He has no shortage of magic weapons.

The higher the realm, the more important the foundation of Tao becomes!

The five energies condensed in the chest of today's Taiyi Golden Immortal are mostly ordinary five elements.

Only those masters with resources may have the opportunity to condense the acquired five elements.

This is also the reason why the innate gods are so powerful. They are born early, have unique advantages, and directly condense the innate energy of the five elements.

And he, the King of Golden Horn, swallowed the "innate five elements energy" of the golden-winged Roc and achieved the Taiyi Golden Immortal Taoism foundation, which is no different from the innate gods like Sun Wukong.

At least at the Taiyi Golden Immortal stage, his foundation in Taoism is not inferior to some innate gods.

Of course, chaotic beasts such as the Ancestral Dragon, the Original Phoenix, and the First Qilin naturally absorb the innate origin energy of the five elements, making them even stronger.

After Taiyi Jinxianqiang condenses the five energies in his chest, his understanding of the laws of heaven and earth will become more profound, and his Taoist magic will be more powerful when he performs it.

There is little benefit to the body.

"The golden crow turns into a rainbow, the golden light spreads across the earth, the golden pupil of the sun, the universe in the belly, the laws of heaven and earth, the true fire of the sun..."

"From now on, when I use these magic skills, their power will be far greater than before."

With a wave of his hand, the door of the secret room opened. Xiao Chen's mind moved, and he turned into a ray of golden light and flew to the top of Yuntai Mountain.

"The king has come out of seclusion. The king has come out of seclusion."

On the top of Mount Yuntai, some little monsters cheered and jumped for joy when they saw Xiao Chen coming out of seclusion, and they jumped and greeted their king.

"Fourteen years have passed, and I still don't know what happened in the outside world."

Xiao Chen ordered:
"Let Shu Wen come to see me."

The mosquito demon Shu Wen has many clones, some of which are his spy demons, and are often sent by him to various places to gather information.

Not a moment.

Shu Wen arrived immediately.

He reported to Xiao Chen the major events that had taken place in the Three Realms over the years, especially the movements in Heaven and the ten-year "True Martial Demon Sweeping Campaign".

"The Great Emperor Zhenwu, who has been exterminating demons for ten years."

"This move by the Heavenly Court is really big."

When Xiao Chen heard the news, he also sighed.

The Great Emperor Zhenwu, he naturally knew.

This person’s Taoist temple is in Wudang Mountain in Southern Continent. His full name is “Nine Heavens Demon-Subduing Patriarch”, also known as “Demon-Subduing Heavenly Lord”, and he is also a famous war god in heaven.

When fighting the Yellow-browed Demon in Xiao Leiyin Temple, Sun Wukong also went to Wudang Mountain to seek help from the Zhenwu Emperor.

A person's reputation is like the shadow of a tree. A person who can be called "the Great Emperor" in the Heavenly Court and "the Lord of Subduing Demons" in the lower world must be very powerful, at least above the Daluo Jinxian.

Although King Jinjiao has now reached the realm of Taiyi Golden Immortal and his strength has been further improved, he will probably have no choice but to escape if he encounters the Zhenwu Emperor.

The Great Emperor Zhenwu has been in the human world to fight demons for ten years, and his efforts have been very great.

You know, the journey to the West to obtain the scriptures took only fourteen years, but the monsters in Xiniu Hezhou were already wiped out.

"But now, four years have passed since the Zhenwu Demon Slayer ended, and the rumors should have slowly died down."

Xiao Chen thought to himself.

"The Yellow Tiger King of Huangfeng Ridge, the Green Snake King of Qingmang Mountain, the Gold Coin King of Jindou Mountain... were all wiped out."

The mosquito demon Shu Wen reported that this demon from Xiniu Hezhou was killed by the Great Emperor Zhenwu.

"The Golden Money King of Jindou Mountain."

He had been to Jindou Cave, and Xiao Chen still had an impression of this monster.

This monster was a leopard spirit that occupied the Jindou Cave and ate people there.

As for the Yellow Tiger King and the Green Snake King... they all hang out in the demon world of Xiniu Hezhou. He has probably heard of some of their names, but is not familiar with them.

But this Yellow Tiger King probably heard something from the Yellow Wind Monster.

This Yellow Tiger King was the tiger vanguard under the Yellow Wind Monster. Later he took over the monster's nest and robbed him of the Yellow Wind Ridge.

The Yellow Wind Monster had always wanted to go back and clean up the mess, but Xiao Chen was afraid that he would be discovered by the Buddhist Vajra, so he ordered him not to go out.

"Where are Huli and the others?"

Xiao Chen asked.

"Hu Li went to Chechi State to be the state teacher and preach."

Mosquito demon Shu Wen reported.

"Hu Li has become the national teacher?"

Xiao Chen was not too surprised when he heard this.

The master's order cannot be disobeyed. This Huli Immortal was ordered by the master to come to Xiniu Hezhou to promote Taoism. In the original plot, Huli Immortal later became a national teacher, but now it is just a little earlier.

At this moment.

"Brother Jinjiao, I heard that you have come out of seclusion."

"I'm so excited."

A miserable voice was heard, and the tone revealed an excitement that was difficult to conceal.

Xiao Chen looked up and saw the Three Tiger Power Immortals staggering towards him. They were all covered in dust and tattered clothes, and some were even limping. It was obvious that they had been in a fierce battle and looked very miserable.

"Hu Li, why do you look like you've lost a battle?"

"Did you have a fight with the monk from Zhiyuan Temple? Didn't you fight?"

Seeing this, Xiao Chen teased.

If it was a dispute between Buddhism and Taoism, King Jinjiao really had no intention of interfering in the matter.

After all, he is neither a Buddhist nor a Taoist, he is a monster, and this matter has nothing to do with him.

"No, Brother Jinjiao, a drought demon has come to Chechi Country, and it's very fierce."

"We fought with that drought demon, but we lost."

Hu Li Daxian looked ashamed and explained.

"Hanba?"

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Xiao Chen asked curiously.

He became interested.

After all, Hanba is very famous in the mythological world. It is a monster that causes drought in legend.

Almost everyone knows about Hanba.

In the original plot of Journey to the West, it was the Three Immortals Huli who helped the Chechi Kingdom get rid of the disaster of drought and brought rain. The king of the Chechi Kingdom was overjoyed and respected the Three Immortals Huli as national masters.

"Brother Jinjiao, we haven't developed this weapon refining force for the time being, so it's left empty."

"I just want to obey the name of my master and promote the Tao."

"I will go to Chechi State to be the national teacher, and use my ability to call the wind and rain to spread the name of my Taoist sect."

"Who would have thought that in recent years, Chechi Country has been hit by a severe drought. I couldn't solve the problem even if I summoned the wind and rain. I looked around and found out that the drought demon had come..."

The Great Immortal Huli looked at Xiao Chen eagerly and explained.

Obviously, the great immortal Huli wanted to ask his elder brother Jinjiao to help him get rid of the drought demon.

"There is a severe drought in Chechi Country, the drought demon..."

Xiao Chen thought for a moment after hearing this.

Whether there is a severe drought in Chechi Kingdom or not, and the fate of mortals, have nothing to do with him.

He, the King of Golden Horn, is a monster, not a savior, and he has no intention of saving the world and the people.

What's more, the status of this mortal in the world of Journey to the West is a bit like the livestock raised by gods and Buddhas. They are purely tools to provide the power of incense and no one cares about them.

The life of mortals can provide the power of faith, so of course it has value.

When mortals die and go to the underworld, in the eighteen levels of hell, on the Naihe Bridge, gods and Buddhas can still squeeze out all their value.

Love the people like your own children?

nonexistent.

From time to time, Heaven will bring punishments, disasters, penalties, etc. to mortals, just to give them a beating.

Not to mention Buddhism, everyone in Lingshan, from top to bottom, is greedy for money.

The monks in Lingshan all make money from mortals and never do voluntary labor to help mortals to liberate the souls of the dead.

Monks charge astronomical fees for chanting sutras for mortals or for helping them to attain salvation.

In the words of Tathagata Buddha:

"The bhikkhus and holy monks went down the mountain and chanted the sutra once at the home of the elder Zhao in the Kingdom of Savatthi, guaranteeing the safety of the living and the liberation of the deceased. They only asked for three dou and three liters of rice grains and gold in return."

"I also said that they sold it too cheaply, leaving our descendants with no money to use it!"

"The sutra should not be passed on lightly, nor should it be taken without any purpose."

"You come here empty-handed, and you are only worthy of receiving a blank scripture!"

……

As for the mounts and pets of the Buddha and Bodhisattva, they run all over the three realms, eating people at will, and nothing happens.

To be honest, where are the monsters and demons in this world?
Some Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are more like demons than demons themselves.

However, he was somewhat interested in this drought demon.

In this mythical world, there are many magical creatures.

He is the Golden Horned King. He has been seen by dragons, fought by the big peng, ridden by a unicorn, and has also been seen by a nine-headed lion... Let's go and see what this drought demon looks like.
"Let's go and take a look at this drought demon."

Xiao Chen smiled.

He has now reached the level of Taiyi Jinxian, and just came out of retreat, so it would be nice for him to practice with Hanba.

"Okay, Brother Jinjiao."

Upon hearing this, Huli Daxian grinned.

"Humph, this time we have the help of Brother Jinjiao, so a mere drought demon is a piece of cake."

Huli Daxian flattered.

then.

The great immortal Huli led the way, leading the way.

He pretended to be powerful and rushed towards the drought demon with murderous intent.

The Great Immortal Huli already knew the location of the drought demon, so he went there very quickly this time.

It didn't take long.

The great immortal Huli found the drought demon.

Xiao Chen glanced at the sky, probed downward with his spiritual sense, and was also quite surprised.

Fourteen years no see.

This Che Chi country has changed a lot.

The green mountains and clear waters and the peaceful and prosperous scenes of the past no longer exist.

The situation in the city is still okay and can still maintain some superficial prosperity.

But the rural areas outside the city suffered severe disasters and were desolate.

Crops were almost extinct, the land was barren, and there were thousands of miles of barren land.

Hungry people were wandering around, corpses of starving people were everywhere, and their living conditions were extremely miserable.

The people were pale and thin, and their eyes were full of despair.

They sat weakly on the cracked ground, holding tightly in their hands the few remaining grains of food, as if that was their only hope.

"Is this a divine disaster or a punishment from heaven?"

Xiao Chen took a glance and seemed to understand something in his mind.

This is a mythological world, not the real world, and there is no such thing as natural disasters.

Even the rainfall in this mythical world, every inch and every foot, is predetermined.

All natural phenomena are not accidental; they are all controlled by gods or demons behind them.

When there is a flood, it is the water apes that are stirring up the storm; when there is a strong wind, it is the wind god that is showing off his power; when there are frequent earthquakes, it is the earth dragons that are tossing and turning...

If this disaster in the world is not caused by evil spirits, then it must be controlled by gods and Buddhas.
