In the beginning, he was ranked alongside An Shigeng as a spoiled brat.

Furthermore, this carving knife is incomparably sharp; one can wield it with their primordial spirit for both offense and defense.

"Disciple thanks Master for bestowing this treasure!"

The three treasures, each one of which shocked the three of them...

At the same time, the three of them also sensed that Zhang Xiaoshan's identity was definitely not simple, otherwise how could he possess such a valuable treasure, and why could he not see it at all normally?

"This catastrophe has lasted for six hundred years. The Imperial Academy should focus on cultivating the future of humanity and not participate in any power struggles."

"is teacher!"

All three disciples kept Zhang Xiaoshan's admonition in mind.

Even such a powerful and unfathomable old master had to avoid his sharp edge, let alone them.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Xiaoshan left behind three 'Nine-Turn Golden Pills' and his figure turned into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared.

With the young sword master presiding over Xuanzhen Temple, Zhang Xiaoshan was not worried at all about the Eastern Continent descending into chaos.

The main problem is Jambudvipa, where the Buddha described it as a continent with much greed, killing, and desire... mainly because the population has increased, and the resulting injustices due to power and wealth are inevitable.

This is human nature!

Moreover, the teachings spread by Western Buddhism are Brahmanical, and the so-called peaceful coexistence is completely similar to the slave society before the Warring States period, which completely cuts off the path for the lower class to rise to the upper class.

If you are a slave in this life, you will be a slave for life. Do not resist life, but submit to fate.

What use is such a doctrine?

···

At this moment, the celestial realm was in complete chaos.

The monkey transformed into countless forms, blocking the gods from all sides attending the Peach Banquet at the South Heavenly Gate and successfully leading them to the Lingxiao Palace.

Instead, the monkeys in the Jade Pool 2.0 feasted on food.

Unbeknownst to the monkeys, the specially prepared celestial fruits and wines were disappearing into thin air at a visible speed.

The monkey, oblivious to his surroundings and slightly drunk, was completely unaware that there was another master thief besides himself.

Immediately, the monkey used magic to conjure up a magic bag and collected the leftover scraps of food.

Then, with a swaying gait and a bewildered expression, the monkey was led to the Tushita Palace by a mysterious force.

The monkey might not have realized it, but Chonglou, who was following behind, saw it clearly: the monkey was transported to the front of the Tushita Palace by a powerful force, not on its own.

After all, the Tushita Palace is located above the dome of the heavens, and it's part of the vast celestial realm. Where couldn't the monkey go? He unintentionally arrived at the Tushita Palace of the Great Luo Heaven.

However, the monkey was wasteful, and Chonglou picked up the scraps, so he wouldn't reveal this matter.

Chapter 125 Havoc in Heaven

"Report, Your Majesty, the goddess and warrior in the Jade Pool are unconscious, the ground is in a mess, and all the immortal fruits and wines have been looted."

"Report, Dao Ancestor, the Heavenly Gate of the Tushita Palace is wide open, and the immortal pills inside are scattered and in a terrible mess."

"Reporting, Your Majesty, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, Sun Wukong, has broken through the Southern Heavenly Gate and returned to the mortal realm!"

···

Inside the Lingxiao Palace, all the gods gathered, and even Chonglou managed to sneak in amidst the chaos.

At this moment, with the reports from the heavenly generals that shook the celestial realm, the entire Lingxiao Palace became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Falsely claiming imperial will, disrupting the Peach Banquet, looting the Tushita Palace...

Each of these is a capital offense, let alone all of them combined. Even the gods couldn't help but sigh at how stubborn this monkey was.

As for Chonglou?

Although he was picking up the scraps later, in reality, the Supreme Dao Ancestor was covering for him and erasing his karma, so even the Great Heavenly Venerable did not notice anything unusual.

This was originally a trap set for the monkeys, allowing them to run wild.

Therefore, the monkeys caused a great disturbance, and later a Buddhist temple was set up behind them.

Otherwise, on the journey to the West, even the mounts and attendants of others would require some effort, let alone facing these great gods of the heavens.

For example, the Green Ox in the Tushita Palace was no less powerful than Sun Wukong before he had refined his golden body.

It's impossible for the Supreme Elder Lord to have come to Lingxiao Palace riding a green ox.

Moreover, the Peach Banquet is a grand feast in the Heavenly Realm, and there are no fewer than ten Great Luo Heavenly Venerables attending the banquet:

Nine Heavens Demon-Subduing Celestial Venerable, Nine Heavens Thunder God Universal Transformation Celestial Venerable, Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden...

There are quite a few masters who can rival the monkey, such as Wang Lingguan, Nezha, and the Four Sages of the North Pole...

As for the star lords of the celestial realm?

The True Spirits are listed, and at this moment they are all divine bodies condensed from the great power of the Heavenly Realm.

Moreover, after the deification, their original magical treasures became spoils of war for the victors, leaving them with little strength. Therefore, they had no choice but to follow the path of incense offerings and start anew.

Otherwise, the three schools of Taoism, with just Zhao Gongming, the God of Wealth, could overpower the Twelve Golden Immortals, and even the eight great Bodhisattvas of Buddhism would have to retreat in fear.

Therefore, when the monkey wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace, even a group of star deities were no match for him.

"You audacious monkey, how dare you so disrespect the Heavenly Court!"

"My lords, is there anyone willing to subdue this demonic monkey?"

"Your Majesty, Li Jing is willing to go!"

Seeing Li Jing step forward, Chonglou did not immediately stand up, after all, Erlang Shen was recommended to the Jade Emperor by Pudu Cihang.

Therefore, even if Chonglou intends to make a move, it won't be now; he'll have to wait until the 100,000 heavenly soldiers of the Heavenly Realm suffer a crushing defeat.

Upon hearing this, the Great Celestial Venerable immediately ordered Li Jing to lead Nezha, the Four Heavenly Kings, the Nine Luminaries, and other celestial deities to the mortal realm to capture the demon monkey.

Meanwhile, the celestial beings and gods watched the battle below through the Haotian Mirror.

First up was the Giant Spirit God, who possessed the bloodline of ancient giants. As the vanguard of the celestial realm, the Giant Spirit God was not as weak and vulnerable as one might imagine.

You must know that the Giant Spirit God possesses ancient bloodline, is incredibly strong, and has thick skin and flesh. His Xuanhua Great Axe weighs more than 100,000 jin.

With each swing, wind and thunder accompany it, its power capable of splitting mountains and shattering peaks, sweeping away all demons.

This is also why the Giant Spirit God served as the vanguard of the celestial realm.

However, the monkey is cunning and could not possibly confront the giant spirit head-on.

With a swing of the ten-zhang-tall daylily-shaped giant axe, its power was immense and its momentum overwhelming. The monkey vanished instantly beneath the axe.

The monkey's seventy-two transformations, combined with the magical stone monkey's talent for transformation, complement each other perfectly, making its abilities in no way inferior to the thirty-six Heavenly Generals' supernatural powers.

While the giant spirit was in a daze, the monkey had already transformed into a mosquito and appeared silently on the giant spirit's body.

Snapped!

When the Giant Spirit God struck down with his palm, the sound was as loud as thunder, showing how much force he had used.

But when the giant spirit removed his palm, he found nothing there. His face turned ashen, realizing he had been tricked by the monkey.

Snapped!

Snapped!

Two more slaps landed on his body. The Giant Spirit God was furious at being teased by the monkey, but had nowhere to vent his anger.

"Hey big guy, take this!"

Having teased him enough, the Giant Spirit looked up and saw the monkey sweeping down with a ten-zhang-long staff, displaying its supernatural power of imitating heaven and earth.

when!

The metallic clang and the trembling sound reverberated for miles.

In an instant, all the monkeys on Flower Fruit Mountain covered their ears as the surrounding waves swept across the opposite coast with the terrifying force of a tsunami.

click!

To the disbelief of the Giant Spirit God, the Xuanhua Axe that had blocked the monkey's blow suddenly developed fine cracks.

Even without close inspection, it's clear that the daylily-shaped axe is ruined.

Without his weapon, and with the added force of the monkey's staff, the Giant Spirit God had no choice but to retreat back to the sky.

The gods in the heavens who witnessed this scene were all terrified, and at the same time, they were surprised that the monkey had some ability.

However, Chonglou was not surprised at all.

Although the Ruyi Divine Needle Iron weighs only 14,000 jin, it was still forged in the Eight Trigrams Furnace, and its power should not be underestimated.

The Xuanhua Great Axe of the Giant Spirit God was merely a celestial weapon casually crafted in the Heavenly Realm, and its craftsmanship was even less than that of the Fire Dragon Sword. How could it possibly compare to the Ruyi God Tie Tie?

The Giant Spirit God was tricked and his weapon was destroyed by the Monkey King's staff. Li Jing then sent Nezha to the scene.

Nezha has three heads and six arms, providing comprehensive defense. In addition to divine weapons such as the Flaming Spear, Golden Brick, and Sword, he also has magical treasures like the Universe Ring and the Heavenly Silk Sash for protection, filling Li Jing with confidence.

Watching Nezha charge down with full fighting spirit, his flaming spear swift and fierce, unleashing a barrage of attacks like a raging storm.

In terms of strength, Nezha might not be much weaker than Sun Wukong.

But the monkey is cunning and would never actually fight Nezha head-on, resulting in a stalemate where both are severely injured.

After fighting Nezha for over a hundred rounds, the monkey plucked a tuft of hair from his body, and instantly countless monkeys burst through the air, disrupting Nezha's vision.

Caught off guard, they were ambushed by the demon monkey and had no choice but to retreat temporarily.

Although Nezha achieved victory through a sneak attack by the monkey, he was now defeated and naturally could not advance further. Therefore, the Thunder God and Lightning Goddess, the Four Heavenly Kings, the Nine Luminaries...

In an instant, all the gods of the heavens appeared.

The monkey, having mastered the fifth level of profound martial arts, could refine his body amidst lightning, dance drunkenly in sound waves, and laugh wildly amidst wind and fire... Even 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals could not subdue him, causing the entire celestial realm to change color in fear.

Under these circumstances, the gods of Lingxiao Palace couldn't help but look in one direction: the Jade Frontier War God—Chonglou!

It's worth noting that the monkey had previously broken into the temple of this war god, but was directly blasted out by the Jade Frontier War God.

In this way, the strength of this Jade Frontier War God is even greater than that of the monkey.

"We beg the God of War to intervene!"

Seeing the gods pleading for his permission, Zhang Xiaoshan naturally didn't hold back or act coy. Instead, he cupped his hands and asked the Great Heavenly Venerable to grant him permission to descend to the mortal realm.

Because of Chonglou's existence, Erlang Shen had no chance to appear.

As for Chonglou's strength, neither the Great Celestial Venerable nor the Queen Mother of the West had any doubts.

Not to mention his sixth level of profound skill, Chonglou's armor and divine halberd are both top-grade innate spiritual treasures, making dealing with the monkey a piece of cake.

Chapter 126 Heavenly Divine Powers VS Earthly Fiend Variables

"Who comes here? State your name."

"I, Old Sun, don't strike nameless nobodies with my stick. If you're afraid, retreat at once!"

The defeat of the celestial generals emboldened Sun Wukong, who no longer considered the twelve-foot-tall Chonglou a threat.

However, seeing Chonglou clad in dazzling golden armor and wielding a halberd, the monkey remained wary.

After all, the generals of the Heavenly Realm had suffered repeated defeats and their morale was completely gone.

The general who dared to come alone at this time could not be a simple person.

Especially when staring at the halberd in Chonglou's hand, for some reason, the monkey felt a sense of overwhelming fear.

But his arrogance remained undiminished.

Chonglou, with a smile on his face, wielded his halberd and launched it directly at the monkey.

Talking to a monkey?

Chonglou knew that this monkey had a foul mouth, and when he shouted at Erlang Mountain, he was directly humiliated by it.

Therefore, when fighting this monkey, there's no need for words; just launch a direct attack.

A flash of golden light appeared, seemingly a sky full of halberd shadows, but in reality, it was the Fangtian Halberd moving at extreme speed. Moreover, without any fancy moves, the halberd struck directly at the top of Sun Wukong's head.

when!

The moment the Ruyi Jingu Bang (the magic needle) blocked the Divine Halberd, Sun Wukong's body trembled, and the staff in his hand almost slipped out of his grasp.
