The Demon-Slaying Grandmaster

Chapter 472
Li Jingxiao estimated that the East Sea Dragon Palace had at least 200,000 to 300,000 soldiers, and if the other three sea dragon palaces were included, the number of soldiers should be no problem at all.

If Ao Guang is not satisfied, he can bring along the three Dragon Palaces to take revenge.

Lee Kyung-hyo will definitely be laughing in his sleep.

Not only can he gain more experience, but Li Jingxiao also has the audacity to devour 100,000 aquatic creatures in one go.

Unfortunately, Ao Guang chickened out.

With a sense of helplessness and regret, Li Jingxiao looked at Ao Guang, who was about to leave.

Suddenly, an idea struck him, and he flashed to appear beside Ao Guang.

The old Dragon King was so frightened that he almost dived into the sea to escape.

Dozens of aquatic generals drew their swords, intending to protect Ao Guang.

But before Ao Guang and his generals could take any action, the Haotian Mirror suddenly appeared above Li Jingxiao's head.

A beam of divine light shone down, freezing all the aquatic creatures huddled together in place.

Ao Guang's face immediately turned pale.

Not only were they terrified, but they were also afraid that Li Jingxiao would wipe them all out.

If that were the case, the entire East Sea Dragon Palace would inevitably be invaded and occupied.

Even the dragon's sons and grandsons will die one by one inexplicably in the future.

Fortunately, Li Jingxiao had no interest in killing Ao Guang and these aquatic generals.

Killing doesn't give much experience; it's not as good as playing with your three wives for ten or fifteen days.

Moreover, killing them would cause a lot of trouble.

After all, he was one of the Four Dragon Kings, and the highest-ranking one at that.

Even within the Heavenly Court, their status was not low.

In the Journey to the West world, Li Jingxiao married the sisters Ao Huiji and Ao Xin, making him essentially the son-in-law of the Dragon Palace of the West Sea.

Naturally, they knew how vast the Dragon Palace's network of connections was.

Moreover, the Heavenly Court already lacks celestial officials, and the sudden death of dozens of them would surely enrage the Jade Emperor.

Li Jingxiao wasn't foolish enough to think that the Jade Emperor was a good-for-nothing.

Moreover, in the Investiture of the Gods, the Jade Emperor was originally the attendant of the Grandmaster Hongjun.

Even if their strength is not comparable to that of the Three Pure Ones and other saints, they are still in the first tier below the saints.

Perhaps, he could become the number one person below even a sage.

Therefore, Li Jingxiao had absolutely no interest in killing the Dragon King of the East Sea and his ilk.

His gaze fell on Ao Bing, whose heart had been pierced by Nezha's spear, and he thought to himself that killing Ao Guang was of little significance.

Since I just killed tens of thousands of aquatic creatures, I should try to ease the tensions a bit.

A slap followed by a treat is good for everyone.

As for Ao Bing's act of saving the fire, it was an immense favor to Ao Guang and the East Sea Dragon Palace.

Therefore, Li Jingxiao, with a thought in mind, used the "Resurrection" technique taught by Guanyin Bodhisattva.

A beam of divine light descended from the sky and landed on Ao Bing's corpse.

Then, pretending to be serious, he took out a five-stage golden pill from his inventory.

Pretending it was a Nine-Turn Rejuvenation Pill, it was put into Ao Bing's mouth.

Then he looked at Ao Guang and said, "Dragon Lord, this is the Resurrection Pill that I refined."

"How about we settle the feud between my disciple Nezha and your dragon clan?"

In the Journey to the West world, the elixir refined by Laozi can be called either the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir or the Nine-Turn Resurrection Elixir.

In other words, consuming Laozi's Nine-Turn Golden Elixir in Journey to the West can both grant immortality and bring the dead back to life.

However, in the Investiture of the Gods, the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir and the Nine-Turn Rejuvenation Elixir are clearly two different kinds of pills.

The Nine-Turn Golden Elixir from the Investiture of the Gods is a breakthrough medicine for cultivating immortality, while the Nine-Turn Resurrection Pill is a resurrection medicine for mortals.

The two are clearly distinct within the "Investiture of the Gods" system.

It was also mentioned explicitly by Jiang Ziya and the Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect on several occasions.

In other words, Laozi in the Journey to the West world is more accomplished in alchemy than Laozi in the Investiture of the Gods world.

Incidentally, his alchemy skills are equivalent to Li Jingxiao's, and he might even be more powerful than Laozi in this world.

Of course, this only applies to refining the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir.

While Li Jingxiao's actions were unnecessary, his reason for doing so was simply to artificially create the impression that he had the ability to bring the dead back to life.

But if you really want to save someone's life, both elixirs and magic are indispensable.

Compared to this, he is far inferior to Lao Tzu of this world.

Moreover, not everyone has the talent for alchemy.

Those powerful figures who knew their alchemy skills were lacking and they had no talent wouldn't be keeping a close eye on Li Jingxiao all the time.

Incidentally, he might even attract Laozi's attention and be accepted as a disciple.

If Li Jingxiao wanted to avoid the calamity of the Investiture of the Gods, it would be a piece of cake.

Even if Laozi ignored Li Jingxiao's hints, with his alchemy skills, considerable strength, and a collection of magical treasures, he was still capable of much.

Ordinary people wouldn't dare to mess with him.

Li Jingxiao even considered what would happen if the Three Pure Ones refused to accept him as a disciple.

So, when I was forced to, I went directly to the Heavenly Court to negotiate with the Jade Emperor.

Become an alchemist for the Jade Emperor.

Let alone refining the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir, even if it were the Eight-Turn or Seven-Turn Golden Elixir, the Jade Emperor would treasure Li Jingxiao.

As for serving as an official in Heaven, one might lose their freedom.

Not always.

In the Journey to the West world, Li Jingxiao was Laozi's personal disciple.

He also accompanied Laozi in refining elixirs and was responsible for delivering the golden elixir to the Jade Emperor.

The Jade Emperor didn't seem to restrict him either.

It can be said that as long as they have enough value, even the Jade Emperor would be too busy trying to win them over.

How could I possibly offend Li Jingxiao?

She would even marry her daughter to him.

In the Heavenly Court of this world, even the Jade Emperor could not summon enough subordinates.

At this moment, Li Jingxiao took the initiative to approach him, which was like sending charcoal in snowy weather.

Maybe he'll be directly appointed as a Heavenly Venerable or a Great Emperor.

As for the prohibition of romantic relationships between immortals and mortals, the worst that can happen is simply not to seek out mortal women.

Moreover, in order to gain more experience, Li Jingxiao would not seek out ordinary women.

Even if you insist on finding one, the worst that can happen is that you can be given a Nine-Turn Golden Pill and become an immortal directly.

The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother have many children, so even if Li Jingxiao wants children, the Heavenly Laws will not be an obstacle.

Moreover, by serving as an official in the Heavenly Court in his physical body, he can not only continue to cultivate and improve his cultivation level.

They will not be restricted by the Investiture of the Gods.

When the Investiture of the Gods war began, the Jie Sect and the Chan Sect fought so fiercely that their brains were practically turned out the moment they saw each other.

As someone with the ability to bring the dead back to life, I'm sure both sides will try to win me over.

Perhaps after Zhao Gongming dies, his brother-in-law will revive him.

Yunxiao and Bixiao will also pledge themselves to each other.

There are so many benefits.

Having figured these things out, Li Jingxiao suddenly felt enlightened.

When his gaze fell upon Ao Guang, sure enough, the old Dragon King was astonished to hear that Li Jingxiao could revive his third son.

They agreed without even thinking.

As for the tens of thousands of soldiers and generals, just as Li Jingxiao had predicted, Ao Guang didn't care at all.

Ao Bing's body quickly began to heal, and he had been dead for less than an hour.

The three souls and seven spirits were easily guided back into Ao Bing's body by an invisible force.

Ao Guang and the dozens of aquatic generals were dumbfounded, yet filled with anticipation.

In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Ao Bing's eyelids twitched.

Then he shouted, "It hurts so much!"

It seems that this kid's last memory is of the moment when Nezha pierced his heart with a spear.
