Journey to the West: Deer Power Immortal, Starting from Becoming a Disciple of the Supreme Lord Tais

"Secondly, from this day forward, you shall not commit any more evil deeds, and you shall not harass the villages and towns surrounding the cave."

The snake spirit nodded repeatedly: "I dare not, I dare not. From now on, I will eat vegetarian food and chant Buddhist scriptures, and I will never frighten anyone again."

The Fox King also declared, "Within a radius of a hundred miles, my Green Peak Mountain will ensure the safety of the people and will never allow a single demon to disturb them."

Lu Qingxuan nodded and said, "Third, and lastly, after you go back, draw a map of the demon realm covering a radius of three hundred miles, clearly marking the demon kings and whether they harm people. Send it to Zhongnan Mountain within three months."

Upon hearing this, the three demons looked at each other, all somewhat hesitant.

The first two conditions were merely a loss of face for them, but this third condition forced them to break ties with the other demon kings. If those demon kings found out that they had leaked the information, their future would likely be bleak...

Seeing that the three demons had not yet expressed their opinions, Lu Qingxuan frowned slightly: "What? You're unwilling?"

The Fox King's eyes darted around, and he immediately said, "I'm willing, I'm willing. Fellow Daoist, spare our lives. What's a little thing like this? I'll go back and draw it, and send it to Zhongnan Mountain in a month."

Seeing that the Fox King had agreed, the Black Cloud King and the Snake Spirit had no choice but to nod in agreement as well.

Seeing that the three demons had all nodded, Lu Qingxuan put away his longsword.

"Go then. If I find out that you are outwardly compliant but inwardly defiant, I will hunt you down to the ends of the earth and never let a single one of you go!" Lu Qingxuan waved his hand.

The three demons, as if granted a pardon, scrambled and fled the valley.

Tiger Power Immortal watched the three demons disappear into the distance and snorted, "They got off easy this way."

Sheep Power Immortal smiled, understanding Lu Qingxuan's actions perfectly.

Killing them is easy, but what happens afterward?

New demon kings will inevitably emerge from the three demon king caves. Rather than endless warfare like this, it would be better to keep these three demons alive and use them for our own purposes.

After what happened today, these three demons will have to think twice before trying to pull any more tricks.

"Let's go, we'll leave the rest to them..."

The three demons, including Lu Qingxuan, did not linger and rode away on a cloud.

No one noticed that deep in the clouds above the heavens, a crimson auspicious cloud hung there, motionless.

Standing on the clouds was a young man with a face as white as powder and lips as red as cinnabar. He wore lotus armor, a sash around his waist, and rode on wind and fire wheels. He was none other than Nezha, the Great God of the Three Altars and Seas!

He was returning from an inspection tour of the Heavenly Court when he passed by this place. Suddenly, he sensed a demonic aura surging below, so he descended from the clouds and looked down.

Once you start looking, you see it from beginning to end.

From the moment the Great King of Inspiration appeared carrying Tiger Power and Sheep Power, to Dao Lu Qingxuan saving people with his alchemy furnace...

Nezha witnessed everything.

"How interesting..." Nezha put away his Fire-Tipped Spear and stood on a cloud with his hands behind his back.

He had seen too many cultivators—from the Heavenly Court, the mortal realm, and the demon realm—all kinds, including those who bullied others with their power and those who were cowardly and retreated.

He had used the Fire-Tipped Spear to poke him, the Universe Ring to smash him, and the Chaos Ribbon to bind him—so many times that he had long since lost interest.

But this Lu Qingxuan is different.

It's quite interesting that a demon cultivator, who has only cultivated for a thousand years, can actually hold his own against the Great King Linggan.

What interested him even more was that, judging from his appearance, Lu Qingxuan seemed to have some connection with the Doushuai Palace.

His alchemy furnace and longsword might seem unremarkable to others, but he knew them very well.

The myriad totems on the alchemy furnace were clearly the refining techniques of the Tushita Palace, and even the aura emanating from Lu Qingxuan was that of the Golden Core Dao.

"When did those two guys, Golden Horn and Silver Horn, get a junior brother?" Nezha muttered to himself.

Nezha glanced in the direction where Lu Qingxuan and the other two demons had left, hesitated for a moment, and did not chase after them.

They've just finished a fierce battle and are covered in wounds. If you suddenly show up at their door at this time, it's not a visit, it's just adding to their troubles.

Moreover, he still needs to report back to Heaven, and cannot afford to delay.

"Never mind, I'll come another day." Nezha muttered to himself, then pushed off with his feet, and the Wind-Fire Wheels spun wildly, carrying him soaring into the sky.

...

After leaving the valley, Lu Qingxuan and the other two demons returned to Zhongnan Mountain to begin their seclusion.

Thanks to the gifts from Guanyin Bodhisattva, the three demons' strength has greatly improved. In particular, Tiger Power and Sheep Power, although they have not broken through, have reached the perfect state. If they take another step, they can attract a tribulation of lightning and transform from mortal to immortal.

"These are truly wonderful items. If we had a few more, we would surely be able to glimpse the path to immortality," Tiger Power Immortal exclaimed in amazement.

The Great Immortal Yang Li, however, took it in stride: "Such a treasure is already rare enough for us to obtain even one. To acquire another would be difficult unless we were blessed with great fortune..."

He knew very well that if Lu Qingxuan hadn't captured the Great King Linggan this time, the Bodhisattva wouldn't have used such a treasure to settle the matter.

After all,

They were fortunate to have such an opportunity, thanks to Lu Qingxuan.

Lu Qingxuan smiled and took out several pills, handing them to the two demons, Hu Li and Yang Li.

"This is…"

Tiger Power Immortal was surprised and doubtful when he saw the pills that Lu Qingxuan took out.

"The Nourishing Essence Pill, though not as good as the lotus seed, is still a decent medicine. My two brothers can take it and refine it to break through to the next realm as soon as possible," Lu Qingxuan said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, both Huli and Yangli were overjoyed.

We were so focused on discussing the lotus seeds that we forgot about Lu Qingxuan's alchemy skills.

"good!"

The two demons nodded and took out a jade bottle to put the pills inside.

"Judging by the time, the Three Immortals Shrine should be fully repaired by now..." Lu Qingxuan said.

"That's right, but I wonder if those three guys tried to cheat or do something wrong," Hu Li said.

Yang Li smiled and said, "It shouldn't be. If you're worried, brother, we might as well go and take a look."

"Alright, after so many days of seclusion, my bones are practically falling apart." Tiger Power Immortal became interested.

"In that case, let us set off now."

Lu Qingxuan nodded, and the three demons immediately rode away on the clouds.

When they arrived at the banks of the Qingshui River, a brand-new Sanxian Temple came into view. Compared with the previous one, the current Sanxian Temple was undoubtedly much larger, and people came in an endless stream to offer incense in front of the gate, showing a prosperous scene.

In addition, not far from the Three Immortals Shrine, Lu Qingxuan sensed several demonic auras lingering, but they did not disturb the people, instead observing them from a distance.

"Those three demons are quite interesting..."

Lu Qingxuan instantly understood that these were the people sent by the three demon kings to guard the temple.

Clearly, they were afraid that if someone damaged the Three Immortals Shrine, they would be held responsible.

Afterwards, Lu Qingxuan and the other two demons went to several other destroyed temples dedicated to the Three Immortals, all of which were magnificent and tall.

"Those three demons are quite nimble..." Tiger Power Immortal snorted.

Sheep Power Immortal smiled and said that there was no other way but to act quickly. After all, the Great King of Inspiration had already left, and if they did not listen to them, their fate would be terrible.

As evening approached, the three demons finally set off back to Zhongnan Mountain. Lu Qingxuan sat cross-legged in the quiet room, secretly planning the next steps.

Now that they have captured the recent demon kings, they should be able to prevent any further trouble in the future.

Next, all we need to do is wait for the three demons to hand over the location of the demon king's cave in the vicinity, and then we can further expand the area of ​​the Three Immortals Shrine.

Even if they can't enter the Heavenly Court by then, they'll have more options...
