Journey to the West: Cultivation Begins at Jindou Mountain

Chapter 154 The Meishan Brothers, Long Live the Fox King

Time flies, and three months have passed since Niu Yi arrived at Jinchan Mountain.

For the past three months, Niu Yi has been staying in the courtyard that his elder brother Jin Fu arranged for him, and he has been treated very well.

Whenever Jin Fu had free time, he would invite Niu Yi for a drink, and occasionally they would sit down and discuss philosophy, which would be quite beneficial for both of them.

At this moment, Niu Yi and Jin Fu were sitting facing each other on the magnificent pavilion atop Jinchan Mountain.

The two of them were sitting on the top floor, where they could see the entire Golden Toad Mountain.

Jin Fu looked at Niu Yi opposite him and exclaimed in admiration:
"It's only been a little over a hundred years since we last met, and you've already caught up, my brother. Your talent is truly something that I, your elder brother, can only envy."

Niu Yi smiled but didn't say much. He simply picked up the wine pot on the table and filled Jin Fu's wine cup.

Actually, if we don't count the Heaven-Seizing Hand, the talents of his Multi-Treasure Divine Ox and the Three-Legged Golden Toad are not that different. There isn't such a huge gap. Even without his opportunity, Brother Jin Fu in front of him also reached the Great Demon King realm in just eight hundred years.

However, it is extremely difficult to take another step forward. Even after thousands of years, his elder brother Jin Fu has still not attained the Dao fruit.

After Niu Yi and Jin Fu talked for a while, Jin Fu got up and left.

During this period, Jin Fu and all the monsters of Jin Chan Mountain were quite busy.

Jin Fu has friends all over the four continents. For those who live quite far away, he will notify them in advance and they will set off early to come.

In fact, guests had been arriving one after another since five years ago, and some of them naturally required Kim Bok to personally receive them.

Even though Jin Fu has been so busy these days, he still made time to entertain him, which shows that his kindness to him is genuine and that he truly treats him like a brother.

After Jin Fu left, Niu Yi also came down from the pavilion, where Jin Cheng was waiting for him at the gate.

Upon seeing Niu Yi emerge, Jin Cheng quickly stepped forward with a broad smile and respectfully said:

"Grandpa Niu, would you like me to show you around a bit more?"

Niu Yi looked at Jin Cheng, who looked like an old man, but he was already used to being called Grandpa Niu.

"No need, I'll go back and rest now."

"Then I'll go back to the courtyard with you now~ Grandpa Niu, please rest assured, I'll be waiting outside the door. Just let me know if you need anything~"

"."

As soon as Niu Yi returned to the courtyard that Jin Fu had arranged for him, he immediately saw Ao Xuan sitting cross-legged in the garden, cultivating.

Niu Yi did not disturb Ao Xuan, who was cultivating. Instead, he quietly used earth magic to return to his room, took off the Chaos Green Gourd from his waist, placed it on the table, and uncorked the gourd.

But then Niu Yi leaped up, his body shrinking as he approached the gourd, and he landed in the gourd's mouth, entering the Chaos Green Gourd.

As Niu Yi continued to fall, he soon floated in a vast space. The space was chaotic all around, except for a three-thousand-foot radius around Niu Yi, where a pile of debris was floating, and the two-thousand-foot-long dragon bones were also in it.

Since Niu Yi first refined the Chaos Green Gourd, he began to use the "Sun and Moon in the Gourd" supernatural power to create space within it. However, the gourd was in complete chaos, making the creation quite difficult.

Several years have passed, and this area of ​​three thousand feet is the result of his efforts over the years.

As for the uses of this magic gourd, in his hands now, one is to store various treasures, and the other is to capture people.

Don't be fooled by the fact that he has only set out a range of three thousand feet. The chaos within this gourd is boundless. Once someone is taken inside, they will be unable to escape without his permission.

However, with his current abilities, he can only accept beings whose cultivation level does not exceed his own, making it rather of little use.

However, Niu Yi had no regrets, because it wasn't that the Chaos Green Gourd was inadequate, but rather that it was his own problem. After all, this treasure was meant for beings like the Great Luo Golden Immortal.

Now that he can use it slightly, his cultivation speed has increased dramatically, and the amount of precious energy he condenses each day has increased soaringly, which is quite satisfying.

Moreover, this treasure also has space to accommodate all the treasures he possesses.

If it weren't for this magic gourd, Niu Yi would really be worried about where to put the dragon bone.

Looking back now, besides the dragon bone, there was another treasure from his trip to the Western Sea that was unexpected and quite a pleasant surprise.

Niu Yi looked at the black-scaled fish floating around the dragon bone and waved to it. The fish immediately swam quickly towards Niu Yi and stopped in front of him.

Who would have thought that these lifelike fish would be a container for treasures?

But then Niu Yi stretched out his palm, and the fish immediately opened its mouth, from which a light blue bead surrounded by shimmering water vapor flew out and spun around in front of Niu Yi.

[Water Spirit Orb: A spirit orb born from the Dao of Water.]

Niu Yi took the Water Spirit Orb from the table, a hint of emotion on his face. He had originally planned to first cultivate a good relationship with the West Sea Dragon King, and then see if there was any possibility of exchanging the Water Spirit Orb for it later.

Unexpectedly, that person simply handed over the Water Spirit Orb to him, leaving only a message in the black fish container, earnestly asking him to take good care of Ao Xuan, without making any other requests.

"This matter is probably also related to Venus."

Venus and Ao Xuan spent a considerable amount of time together in the deep sea abyss, during which time they became acquainted and found their temperaments quite compatible. They often enjoyed tea and played chess, and thus became good friends.

This person knows quite a lot. He has cultivated the Five Elements Escape Technique, and he also knows that the Earth Spirit Orb is in his possession. Furthermore, he has been comprehending the Great Dao of Water in the Abyss. With this person's insight, he must be able to guess some of his plans.

And that Water Spirit Pearl, no matter how you look at it, is the most suitable for him.

Otherwise, with so many treasures in the West Sea Dragon Palace, even if the West Sea Dragon King wanted to ask him to take care of Ao Xuan, he wouldn't have given him the Water Spirit Pearl, which was exactly what Ao Xuan wanted.

"I wonder how much effort Star Lord has put in; he's probably unknowingly incurred a favor by this person now."

Niu Yi shook his head with a sigh, slowly closed his eyes, and began to cultivate.

This Water Spirit Orb is currently ownerless, making it perfect for him to use to comprehend the Great Dao of Water. Once he has fully grasped the Great Dao of Water, he can completely take control of this Water Spirit Orb.

As for the dragon bone, now is not the best time to refine it into the Dragon Roar and Tiger Howl Diagram.

This Dragon Roar and Tiger Howl painting features both dragon and tiger. Now that we have the dragon bone, we will need to find an equally valuable tiger-type treasure in the future in order to completely reforge this treasure.

The book the old Zen master gave him did indeed record the location of a tiger bone, which was perfect for the "Dragon Roars and Tiger Howls" painting. He planned to go and retrieve it after Brother Jin Fu of Jinchan Mountain celebrated his birthday.

Once he completes his retraining, his Dragon Roar and Tiger Howl Diagram will be able to support two Great Daos, which he is truly looking forward to.
A year and a half after Niu Yi arrived at Jinchan Mountain, on this day, Niu Yi was cultivating the "External Incarnation" supernatural power in the courtyard. He could feel that he was getting closer and closer to mastering this supernatural power.

But just then, Jin Fu suddenly came looking for him.

“Brother, come with me quickly. There is a banquet today, and three highly skilled friends have come. I will introduce them to you.”

Seeing the excited Jin Fu, Niu Yi quickly got up, ready to go out with Jin Fu.

“Hey~, my dear brother, your servant boy is often left to guard the house. Why don’t you take him along today and let him see the world?”

Upon hearing this, Niu Yi nodded to Ao Xuan beside him and said:
“Brother Jin Fu is right. Xuan’er, how about you come to the banquet with me today?”

"Yes, sir."

Jin Fu watched this scene with a smile, then led Niu Yi and Ao Xuan to the top of the building and went straight to the highest floor.

When Jin Fu pushed open the door, he was surprised to see four figures divided into two groups waiting in the magnificent hall of the golden pavilion.

Niu Yi and Jin Fu entered together, sizing up the four people in front of them and sensing the aura emanating from them. Apart from one of them, a beautiful young woman dressed in a white and pink dress, the other three were all at the Taiyi True Immortal realm.

As Niu Yi sized up the four men, they were also sizing him up, especially the pair of brothers standing together. After looking at Niu Yi for a while, they exchanged surprised glances.

Jin Fu led Niu Yi and Ao Xuan to the four people, cupped his hands and smiled:
"Hahaha~ Everyone, sorry, sorry, Lao Jin is late."

But then the white-haired old man with the young girl bowed to Jin Fu in return, saying:

"Not too late, not too late. I just didn't expect that Brother Jin would have another friend here. Brother Jin, won't you introduce him?"

The old man saw that Niu Yi had an extraordinary temperament, a clear and ethereal aura, and a sense of being one with heaven and earth, clearly indicating that he was also a Taiyi True Immortal, an existence equal to them.

That aura... it must belong to a true cultivator of the Xuanmen sect.
Jin Fu patted Niu Yi on the shoulder and laughed:
"It is precisely to introduce you that this is Daoist Guangyi, who is my own brother."

At this moment, Niu Yi also cupped his hands in greeting to these people and said:

"This humble Taoist, Guangyi, greets all fellow Taoists."

However, the three beings opposite him, who were also Taiyi True Immortals, did not dare to be negligent and quickly returned the greeting with clasped hands.

Jin Fu smiled and led Niu Yi to the old man, saying to Niu Yi beside him:

“My dear brother, this is the Lord of Jilei Mountain, the Fox King, and the one behind him is the Fox King’s beloved daughter, the Jade-Faced Princess.”

The Fox King, worth millions, and the jade-faced fox who would later become...

Niu Yi exchanged a few polite words with this man, and was then led by Jin Fu to the other side to meet the two brothers.

The two brothers were quite different. One had a bump on his head and carried a crescent-shaped shovel on his back, while the other was tall and strong, looking rather fierce.

“Brother, these two are the sworn brothers of Erlang Xiansheng Zhenjun of Guanjiangkou: Kang Anyu, Grand Commandant Kang, and Zhang Boshi, Grand Commandant Zhang. They are both very famous figures.”
