I am a fairy in Journey to the West

Chapter 352 Follow your words

Since the Xuanjiao came into the world, it has taken away two realms in the world: Xuanxian and Jinxian.

In other words, from now on only the Xuanjiao monks can achieve the Xuanxian or Jinxian Dao fruit when they become immortals.

As for other sacred, Taoist and Buddhist monks, they can attain the status of 'earthly immortal' or 'celestial immortal'.

And going further up is the fruit of the Great Way, which can be achieved regardless of Taoism, Buddhism or Xuanzang.

To put it simply, if a saint, Taoist or Buddhist monk in this world achieves immortality after practicing, he can attain the status of an 'earthly immortal' or a 'celestial immortal'.

If the Taoism they practice is of the highest quality, or their roots are extremely good, then it is possible for them to directly attain the Great Dao Fruit of 'Taiyi Jinxian'.

This was the case with Sun Wukong. He practiced Taoism with Patriarch Bodhi, and all the Taoist methods he learned were of the highest quality. In addition, he was born a stone monkey with an enlightened mind, so as soon as he became an immortal he attained the Taoist fruit of "Hunyuan Yiqi Shangfang Taiyi Jinxian".

If we were to rank them, the achievements of the immortals in the sacred, Taoist and Buddhist sects could be divided into "earthly immortals" and "celestial immortals".

The immortal fruits of Xuanjiao are "Xuanxian" and "Jinxian".

The above are the fruits of the Great Dao that lead to the same destination through different paths. There are three in total: Taiyi Golden Immortal, Dajue Golden Immortal, and Daluo Golden Immortal.

There is no distinction between the three, but there are differences in grades. When distinguishing between them, there is no requirement for Taiyi Golden Immortal to achieve the positive fruit, and even a casual immortal can achieve it directly.

But the Great Awakening Golden Immortal and the Daluo Golden Immortal are different. If one wants to achieve the Great Awakening Golden Immortal, one must first obtain the great way of heaven and earth.

Such as the 'Buddha and Bodhisattva' in Buddhism, the 'Taoist Lord Yuanjun' in Taoism, and of course the 'Emperor' appointed by the Heavenly Court.

When Sun Wukong was practicing Taoism under Patriarch Bodhi, he did not have any level of attainment, so he could only attain the Taiyi Golden Immortal. If he had had a level of attainment, he would probably have directly attained the Dajue Golden Immortal.

Zhuang Yan secluded himself for three years, practicing the Hui Yuan Jing Xin Fa. He wanted to attain a great golden immortal, but he ignored the limitations of the fruit position.

Then Zhuang Yan wanted to settle for the next best thing and become a Taiyi Golden Immortal, but after thinking carefully, with his ability, wouldn't it be easy for him to be conferred by the Emperor in the future? At that time, he could directly become a Dajue Golden Immortal.

Now you just need to keep practicing Taoism and magic, and when you are conferred the title of Emperor in the future, you can directly attain the status of Great Awakening Golden Immortal.

Besides, with his abilities, there is no need for him to be so anxious to improve his cultivation. For example, Vairocana Tathagata is a Great Awakening Golden Immortal.

However, he could easily conjure up a slingshot and force him to perform a backflip on the lotus platform, so Zhuang Yan changed his mind and decided to focus on improving his own strength in the next three years.

He himself possesses great power that is not limited by the level of his cultivation. Even with his current level of 'Heavenly Immortal', he can be on par with the Great Awakening Golden Immortal, or even slightly better. There is no need to be so impatient and lose sight of the important things.

During the three years of seclusion, Zhuang Yan used his own great strength to sail on the long river of time, carefully absorbing the power of the Heavenly Dao.

In just three years, Zhuang Yan traveled through three eras of past time and space, observing the laws of heaven and earth and the movement of the stars. When he entered, he experienced the mundane world, and when he left, he transcended the mundane world.

On this day, the Lingtai Treasure Realm was filled with golden light and auspiciousness. Zhuang Yan's "Huiyuan Jingxin Method" finally achieved the first major breakthrough since his practice.

At this moment, the entire Lingtai Treasure Realm was filled with Zhuang Yan’s aura. Golden lotuses emerged from the ground, auspiciousness spewed from the sky, and purple air surrounded the entire Lingtai Treasure Realm.

At the same time, Zhuang Yan, who was sitting cross-legged in the golden osmanthus forest, was surrounded by mysterious light, and a round light behind his head illuminated the whole body.

With the breakthrough of "Hui Yuan Jing Xin Fa", Zhuang Yan's Taoism and magical powers have completely reached the level of Taiyi Jinxian.

However, he did not attain the status of 'Taiyi Golden Immortal', but instead refined his Taoism and magical powers to a purer level.

After Zhuang Yan spent 49 days to completely refine his magical power, the golden light, purple air and auspicious signs finally dissipated slowly.

Although Zhuang Yan had not yet attained the status of Taiyi Golden Immortal at this time, the purity of his Taoism and magical powers had far surpassed that of Taiyi Golden Immortal.

Putting aside Zhuang Yan's ego 'plug-in', he is already a 'celestial being' with the magical powers of Taiyi Golden Immortal.

Of course, speaking of the ego plug-in, Zhuang Yan's three years of seclusion were mainly to improve this. The reason why he chose this time to seclude himself for three years was because the power of heaven he had accumulated was almost enough.

After all these years of accumulation, plus the three years of seclusion, Zhuang Yan had a breakthrough in his own strength by absorbing the power of heaven while wandering in the long river of time.

He consumed 70% of the power of Heavenly Dao, and made the final enhancement to his previous ability of "adding status", imitating Heavenly Dao, and upgrading the ability of "adding status" to the ultimate version of the power of "words come true".

Then, he used the remaining 30% of Heavenly Dao power to make final upgrades to 'Searching Heaven's Secrets', 'Instant Refining' and 'Imprisoning and Seal' respectively.

The upgraded 'Instant Refining' and 'Containment Seal' were integrated into the power of 'Words Come True'. In this way, Zhuang Yan's own strength was greatly enhanced.

The Jade Emperor is "in charge of the Way of Heaven, and his words are as clear as jade", while Zhuang Yan is "all-powerful in his thoughts, and his words are followed by laws", which means that Zhuang Yan possesses the same great power as the Jade Emperor.

At this time, all the strange phenomena had disappeared. Zhuang Yan retracted his Taoist magic and slowly stood up.

He calculated and found that exactly three years and three months had passed since he started his retreat.

Then he counted with his fingers and said, "I wonder where the pilgrim has been in the past three years?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the secret about the pilgrim team immediately appeared in Zhuang Yan's mind, and pictures flashed one by one:

It turned out that during these three years, the team had already gone through six difficulties, namely: encountering a monster at Mount Hao, the murder of the monkey heart, the sinking of the Black River, the battle of Che Chi, the sinking of Tongtian River, and the fierce battle of the Golden Dou.

Zhuang Yan smiled and said, "So we have already defeated the Green Bull Demon in the Golden Gourd Cave. Where will we go next?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a clue flashed through his mind, and Zhuang Yan nodded slightly, "So it's the Country of Daughters."

This is the power of words coming true. If Zhuang Yan wants to know something, as long as he opens his mouth, the corresponding secret will naturally be revealed.

Then Zhuang Yan stepped out of the Lingtai Treasure Realm and came to the main hall of the Qingping Mountain Temple.

Everything here was the same as before, no different from three years ago. Baojie was dozing off on the cushion. Zhuang Yan turned around and walked out of the hall, and found Xiuhuang was also sleeping on the stone table in the yard.

Zhuang Yan walked forward and took a look, and found that Xiu Huang was sleeping soundly with saliva flowing from the corners of his mouth.

Zhuang Yan smiled, then walked out of the temple and came to the Qingfeng Pavilion on the side of the mountain.

I saw Wangshu and Taoist Wen sitting in the pavilion playing chess. They were so focused on the game that they didn't even notice Zhuang Yan walking beside them.

At this moment, Wangshu, who was playing with white pieces, was at a disadvantage on the chessboard. She frowned, and after thinking carefully for a long time, she finally made a move in the upper right corner.

"Lost." Zhuang Yan looked at this bad move and said immediately. Wangshu had just made his move and when he heard this, he said without even looking up: "Lost to your grandma, a true gentleman watches a game of chess without saying a word, understand?"

But just as Zhuang Yan's words came true, the next moment Taoist Mosquito seemed to have been waiting for a long time. After seeing Wangshu make his move, he immediately made another move excitedly.

The next moment, the situation on the chessboard changed dramatically. Wangshu's face changed drastically, and she hurriedly calculated carefully. Then she found dejectedly that no matter how she moved the subsequent seventy-two moves, she would be in a desperate situation. The piece in the upper right corner was already a dead end.

As for the chess pieces in the center and the upper left corner, they were already dead and had no chance of survival.

"I'm not going to play anymore." Wangshu pushed the board away to admit defeat, then turned around angrily, trying to put the blame for the loss on the person who talked nonsense.

But before she could curse, she found that it was Zhuang Yan standing beside her. Her face changed, and she quickly put away her anger and stood up with a look of surprise and said, "Old Zhuang? You're out of seclusion?"

Zhuang Yan said, "I haven't seen you for three years. Your temper has become worse and worse, and your chess character has also become worse. How can you get angry when you lose?"

Wangshu quickly gave up his seat, and Zhuang Yan stepped forward and sat down, saying, "And what did you mean by calling me Lao Zhuang just now? Am I old?"

"Doesn't this seem intimate?" Wangshu came up to massage Zhuang Yan's shoulders with a smile, saying, "Are you tired after three years of seclusion? Let me massage you."

"No need." Zhuang Yan pointed to a stone bench nearby and said, "Sit down."

Wangshu responded, then walked to the side and sat down. At this time, Taoist Mosquito had already put away the chessboard and quickly stood up to salute Zhuang Yan.

Zhuang Yan smiled slightly and gestured to Taoist Wen to sit down.

After Taoist Mosquito sat down, Wangshu, who had been observing Zhuang Yan for a long time, said in surprise: "Master, I feel that your power and energy are stronger than mine. Could it be that you have already achieved the Taiyi Golden Immortal Dao Fruit?"

"No." Zhuang Yan smiled and said, "She is still a celestial being."

"No way." Wangshu's face was full of doubt, "The aura of a celestial being is stronger than that of a Taiyi Golden Immortal like me?"

Taoist Mosquito said, "Master Wangshu, how can the power of the True Lord be limited by his realm? Even if the True Lord is only a celestial being, how much worse is he than the Taiyi Golden Immortal or even the Dajue Golden Immortal?"

Wangshu nodded upon hearing this and said, "That is true, but the great aura of the True Lord now is enough to prove that the three years of seclusion have been very beneficial."

Zhuang Yan laughed and asked, "Has anything major happened in the past three years?"

"No, it's just normal." Wangshu said, "It feels like three years have passed in the blink of an eye, and it feels like I haven't done anything in these three years."

"There is still one important matter." Taoist Mosquito said, "Isn't Lord Fire Spirit currently in talks with Bagua Mountain and Miaoxi Holy Land? It is said that the three parties have held talks more than a dozen times, but have not yet reached a treaty."

Zhuang Yan immediately became interested and asked, "What is the treaty?"

Taoist Mosquito said: "It seems to be called 'Harmonious World'. The main reason is that Xuanjiao and Buddhism can't get along. As for Taoism, Bixia Yuanjun came forward, but Bixia Yuanjun said that as long as it is beneficial to all living beings, she has no objection."

Zhuang Yan nodded slightly, and then said to Wangshu, "Why don't you care about these things? All you do is play chess, drink and have fun all day long?"

At this point, a clear and mellow smell of wine wafted from Wangshu's body, along with a hint of her body fragrance.

Wangshu curled his lips when he heard this and said, "I have been watching over the temple for you for three years, but you didn't even say thank you. Instead, you lectured me as soon as I came out of seclusion. This is really chilling."

“Hahaha.” Zhuang Yan laughed and said, “I was just joking. Thank you for your hard work in the past three years.”

After that, Zhuang Yan took out the 'Jiangzhen Dahuan Dan' and used his magic power to send it to the two of them, saying: "This is the 'Jiangzhen Dahuan Dan' refined by Taishang Laojun. Taking it can increase your lifespan by 3,000 years and will not be restricted by calamities."

Looking at the golden elixir in front of him, Wangshu was filled with surprise. He quickly caught it and said, "Okay, okay, I love this the most."

For a great god who fell in ancient times, the treasure that can prolong life and avoid disasters is of great significance to her.

Wangshu carefully put away the golden elixir, then smiled at Zhuang Yan and said, "That's right. Just for this golden elixir, I am willing to guard the temple for you for another three thousand years."

Taoist Mosquito then kowtowed to Zhuang Yan and said, "Thank you, Master, for the elixir."

Zhuang Yan smiled and said, "Get up, no need to be polite."

After he finished speaking, a divine power suddenly appeared out of nowhere and lifted up Taoist Mosquito. Taoist Mosquito was shocked. This divine power appeared suddenly and made him powerless to resist. After lifting him up, it suddenly disappeared.

For a moment, Taoist Mosquito felt awe-inspiring and was extremely in awe of Zhuang Yan.

The Juxian Temple on Jieyang Mountain is located seventy miles south of the Kingdom of Women. It was originally named "Poer Cave", but later a Taoist priest came and occupied the mountain and the cave and changed its name to "Juxian Temple".

The Taoist priest in this nunnery was named "Ruyi Zhenxian". On this day, he was playing the zither on the green lawn in the nunnery when he suddenly heard a noise coming from outside.

Although the sound was very light, it just disrupted Ruyi Zhenxian's happiness and disturbed his mind.

Immortal Ruyi frowned, stopped playing the zither, raised his head and shouted outside, "What's that noise that disturbs my peace?"

In a moment, a young Taoist stumbled into the Luping Courtyard. He was the eldest disciple of Ruyi Zhenxian.

The Taoist priest fell in front of Ruyi Zhenxian with a bruised face and nose, crying, "Master, something bad has happened. A Taoist priest who looks exactly like you has come from outside and is trying to force his way in. I stepped forward to stop him and question him, but he beat me up instead."

Upon hearing this, Ruyi Zhenxian was immediately furious and said, "Who is this evildoer who dares to come here and act wildly? I will take care of him now."

After saying that, Ruyi Zhenxian stood up, walked into the house, took off his plain clothes, changed into a Taoist robe, took out a "Ruyi hook" in his hand, and walked straight out of the temple.

Ruyi Zhenxian walked out of the temple and shouted sternly: "Who is this evildoer who dares to come to my Juxian Temple and make trouble?"

After saying that, he glanced around and saw a figure standing in front of him, so he looked closely.

This was a shocking sight. Immortal Ruyi's expression suddenly changed. Why? It was because the man's clothes, appearance, and behavior were exactly the same as his. There was no difference at all.

For a moment, Ruyi Zhenxian was in a trance. He seemed to have no memory that he had a brother?
Immortal Ruyi was in a trance when the man opposite him spoke. He held a jade Ruyi in his hand, pointed at Immortal Ruyi and asked, "Who are you? How dare you pretend to be a poor Taoist and occupy this treasure mountain? Come forward quickly and tie you up, so as to avoid physical pain."

Immortal Ruyi came to his senses and found it quite absurd for a moment. This person actually said that he was fake?

Thinking of this, Ruyi Zhenxian laughed in anger, pointed the iron hook in his hand at the man opposite and said: "I don't care whether you are a demon or a monster, a human or a ghost. Today, since you dare to pretend to be a Taoist and dare to come to my door, I will make you die." (End of this chapter)
