Journey to the West: I have become an immortal, why did you just join the chat group?

Chapter 97 Ao Guang Files a Complaint in Heaven (Please Subscribe)

After seeing off the celestial official from Tongming Palace, Lu Jun's eyes darkened as he pondered to himself, "The Peach Banquet is a place where trouble often occurs. Three of the four members of the pilgrimage group suffered because of the Peach Banquet."

The first to suffer was General Curtain-Roller, who accidentally broke a glass goblet at the Peach Banquet and was therefore banished to the mortal realm by the Great Heavenly Venerable, where he suffered the torment of being pierced by ten thousand swords every day.

The second person to suffer misfortune was Sun Wukong. Hearing that the Queen Mother of the West was holding a Peach Banquet and that his name was not on the previous invitation cards, he sent Barefoot Immortal away and went to the Peach Banquet on his own, causing a disturbance. After getting drunk, he stole the elixir from the Tushita Palace. Knowing he had caused trouble, he went back to Heaven.

Later, they were captured and punished by the Heavenly Court.

The third was Marshal Tianpeng, who commanded the Heavenly River Navy. He got drunk at the Peach Banquet, stormed into the Moon Palace, and, driven by mortal desires, harassed Chang'e, the Moon Goddess. His shouts shook the heavens, so he was banished to the mortal realm and mistakenly reincarnated as a pig.

"However, as long as I behave properly, there shouldn't be any major problems." Knowing that attending the gathering was unavoidable, Lu Jun suppressed his thoughts and began searching for a gift in his treasure pouch.

The Peach Banquet was held to celebrate the birthday of the Queen Mother of the West, and attendees would present gifts as a token of their congratulations.

Although the Queen Mother of the West would not care about such a small gift, it is only proper for those attending the gathering to present a gift. The value of the gift is secondary; what is important is not to lose face and disrespect the head of the female immortals of the Three Realms.

only……

He emptied his treasure pouch, but still couldn't find a single jewel suitable as a congratulatory gift.

It is a treasure bag.

Apart from incense offerings, Sumeru golden sand, and elixir of immortality, everything else is worthless and not worthy of being presented.

clang!
The clear sound of the bronze chime rang out, signaling that it was time for his turn to be on duty again.

"Marshal Lu, why aren't you heading to the command platform?" Familiar laughter echoed from outside the Immortal Palace cave.

"Marshal Song, please stop making fun of me."

Lu Jun has now been promoted to Golden Immortal, his Heavenly Register has risen to the fifth rank, and he has been granted the position of Marshal of the Heavenly Guardian. He can be considered to be on equal footing with Song Yi. He opened the gate of the Immortal Palace, emerged from the cave, and said with a smile, "These days, thanks to the Marshal's frequent arrangements for me to rest, otherwise I'm afraid I wouldn't have broken through so quickly."

A smile flashed in Song Yijian's eyes as he said, "That's too formal. You've now advanced to the Golden Immortal realm, and your cultivation is almost on par with mine. Don't call me 'Marshal,' just call me 'Brother'!"

"Brother Song, what brings you to my cave?" Lu Jun changed his form of address accordingly.

"I heard you've advanced to the Golden Immortal realm, so I came to congratulate you." Song Yi took out a gift box, handed it over, and said with a smile, "This is just a small token of my appreciation, please accept it!"

"How could I trouble you, brother, to spend so much money?" Lu Jun hurriedly declined.

"What's the expense?"

Without a word, Song Yi shoved the gift box into Lu Jun's hands, saying, "When you broke through to the Xuanxian realm, I went down to the mortal world to capture demons and didn't have time to prepare a congratulatory gift. Now that you've advanced to the Jinxian realm, what kind of behavior is it if you don't prepare a congratulatory gift for me?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Jun could only express his gratitude and accept the gift.

"Now that you've been appointed Marshal of the Heavenly Guard, the Third Prince will likely summon you. Remember to be prepared." Song Yi nodded in satisfaction after seeing Lu Jun accept the congratulatory gift.

"The Third Prince summoned me?"

Lu Jun was slightly taken aback and asked in surprise, "Does the Third Prince summon each of the hundreds of Zhen Tian Marshals in our camp when they are promoted?"

"Of course!"

Seeing Lu Jun's surprised expression, Song Yi said helplessly, "You don't think that just because there are many marshals in our camp, there are also many Golden Immortals in other camps, do you?"

Lu Jun was stunned.

Seeing this, Song Yi laughed and said, "Our Zhongtan Sanqin Army is a direct battalion under the command of the Great Celestial Venerable. The expanded heavenly soldiers and generals are all exceptionally talented. If any Golden Immortals with shallow backgrounds ascend to heaven, they are all arranged in our camp. That's why we have gathered several hundred Golden Immortals."

“Like Marshal Tianpeng, who ascended from the lower realm hundreds of years ago, he was also a Golden Immortal, yet he was granted the title of Grand Marshal Tianpeng.” “The reason for this, besides his connection with the Tushita Palace, is also due to his Golden Immortal cultivation.” Song Yi explained in detail.

Golden Immortals are immortal and can perceive the secrets of heaven, deduce the past and future, and even be resurrected from the long river of time. Their cultivation level is already extraordinary in the Three Realms.

In the Heavenly Court, even the Four Demon Generals under Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, were only at the Golden Immortal level.

The two generals under Nezha, Yaksha and Yudu, are also Golden Immortals.

Even the vanguard general, Giant Spirit God, was only a Golden Immortal.

"However, don't think you're so great."

Seeing Lu Jun's thoughtful expression, Song Yi changed the subject and said, "There are differences between Golden Immortals. Golden Immortals like the Four Heavenly Kings, who have supernatural powers and magical treasures, are much more powerful than ordinary Golden Immortals like us. Even if the two of us were tied together, we might not be a match for the Heavenly Kings."

"I know!"

Lu Jun nodded. When he was still a Yuanxian, Bi Zhi had told him that cultivation level and combat power are different. Combat power is closely related to magic weapons and supernatural abilities, and is also closely related to mutual generation and restraint.

"Come on, today we'll take turns guarding the East Heavenly Gate." Song Yi patted Lu Jun on the shoulder, rode a cloud to the command platform, and picked up a wooden mallet.

clang!
Song Yi struck the bronze chime on the command platform.

Streaks of light rose from the camp and flew to the command platform.

"After all this time, we've returned to the gate of the Heavenly Palace." Lu Jun felt a pang of emotion as he saw the assembled Heavenly Soldiers. This time, however, he was no longer a lowly henchman standing in the corner, but the Marshal of Heaven, who held the Heavenly Gate Seal.

"set off!"

With a wave of his hand, Song Yi, along with Lu Jun and the heavenly soldiers, headed towards the East Heavenly Gate.

The East Heavenly Gate leads directly to the Eastern Continent of Divine Victory. Many immortals have attained enlightenment and become immortals within the Eastern Continent, so immortals often travel through the East Heavenly Gate.

Lu Jun and Song Yi held talismans and seals, examining the immortals and gods who came and went.

Soon.

A lucky cloud came swiftly from the lower realm.

"Who goes there?" Lu Jun saw Xiangyun rushing towards him, reached out and grabbed the hilt of his sword, and stepped forward to stop him.

"Imperial Immortal, please forgive me!"

The newcomer descended from the clouds, dispelled his escape light, and stopped outside the Heavenly Gate, revealing his form. He had a gray beard and a blue face, with two dragon horns on his head, clearly a Dragon King responsible for controlling clouds and rain.

Lu Jun smiled when he saw the newcomer: "So it's the Prince of Guangde. May I ask what brings you to the Heavenly Realm?"

When Ao Guang, the Dragon King of the East Sea, saw Lu Jun blocking his way, he was startled and thought to himself, "How could it be him? The heavenly soldier who stole the spiritual treasure at my birthday celebration two hundred years ago?"

"How did he become the Marshal of Heaven, guarding the Heavenly Gate, after more than two hundred years of absence?"

"This path to enlightenment is truly terrifying!"

Suppressing his fear, Ao Guangqiang cupped his hands and said with a forced smile, "Immortal, please forgive me. I've come to lodge a complaint. A demon immortal from the mortal realm has forcibly broken into the Dragon Palace and stolen treasures. This is outrageous!"

"Therefore, Xiaolong specially came to heaven to accuse that demon immortal from the mortal realm!"
