However, it was only a matter of seconds for all the saints and emperors to reshape the Journey to the West universe.
The three realms and six paths, the four continents, the sun, the moon, the stars, and the sacred mountains and blessed places are all mirror images of the ancient times.
The immortals and gods gathered in the heavenly palace noticed the movement and burst into laughter.
"The Journey to the West has already begun, and we must go and take up our posts!"
"Yes!"
"How can such a good show be without us?"
“Go, go, go!”
In the major immortal palaces and countless star fields, the ancient ancestors, the mighty powers of heaven and earth, and the great immortal gods all transformed themselves into form and spirit and plunged into chaos.
In the Journey to the West timeline, the gods and immortals present met the saints and emperors and paid their respects.
Yuanshi Tianzun laughed loudly: "My fellow Taoists, please follow us back to our seats!"
But when he pushed away his Taoist crown, a phantom walked down from the clouds of celebration in the heavens. He was seen wearing a green jade crown, wearing a green feather robe of nine qi, riding a blue dragon, holding a quail flag, guiding the harmony of the nine heavens above, and drawing the fragrance of the nine springs below, nourishing the two symbols for longevity, and protecting yin and yang for eternal prosperity.
"Meet Dongfang Shilao!"
When the Eastern Master was born, he was accompanied by immortals and gods.
The fairy light and cloud flags are majestic and march straight into the Dongsheng Divine Land.
Tongtian Sect Master followed closely behind, pushed forward his Taoist crown, and a god descended from the boundless green air.
But he was seen wearing a red jade crown, a three-qi red feather flying robe, riding a red dragon, holding a red flag, guiding the spiritual transformation of Taiqing Xuanyuan from above, and harmonizing the three qi from below, making all things exist forever, and transporting the heavenly essence to Nanxia.
"We are really old from the south!"
The immortals and gods came out and then entered the world.
Then, the Corpse Ancestor's generals separated their bodies and souls and came out.
He wears a black jade crown on his head, a black feathered robe, rides a black dragon, and holds a black flag. He guides the energy of the Five Emperors from above, saves all living beings from below, protects the two principles and keeps them from falling, and ensures that all lives are in eternal peace.
"I am the Northern Xuan Lao!"
The Northern Xuan Lao was born and led his immortals and gods to the Northern Continent.
Zhen Yuanzi stepped forward.
"I am the Central Huang Lao!"
The form and spirit are dissolved, and the gods are born.
He wears a Huangjing jade crown on his head, five-colored flying clothes, rides a yellow dragon, and holds a yellow flag. He follows the gods Wu and Ji, and brings harmony to nature above and the spirits of the five earths below. He protects the heaven and earth from being damaged, and uses yin and yang from being overturned.
But He pointed to the earth, and at the junction of east and west, a Taoist temple appeared with the words "Wuzhuang" written on it.
Seeing this, the immortals laughed and said, "Brother Dao, you have chosen a good location!"
Zhen Yuanzi smiled and said, "Fellow Daoists, why don't you leave?"
"Let's go, let's go now!"
A group of immortals and gods responded to the call of heaven and earth, and followed the great immortal's form and spirit into the realm of Wuzhuang Temple.
After the four directions were determined, Cundi sang the Sanskrit sound, and there were layers of Buddha's light shining on the world, and the Buddha from the West set foot on Lingshan.
Behind him, immortals and gods transformed into eight hundred Arhats, Bodhisattvas in heaven, and various Buddhas.
“Master!”
Beside Tongtian Sect Master, Duobao Taoist bowed his head.
Tongtian Patriarch laughed loudly: "Go away, go away! If you don't want to sit on his sacred mountain, don't come to see me!"
Upon hearing this, Taoist Duobao bid farewell and left.
However, he did not choose to go straight to Lingshan, but his true spirit turned into a stream of light and he threw himself into reincarnation.
"Brother, please wait for us!"
Behind Yuanshi Tianzun, the three great Bodhisattvas Manjusri, Samantabhadra and Cihang bowed to Tianzun and then went to the Journey to the West universe.
The deputy leader, the Taoist Master Ran Deng, shook his head slightly: "Master, I am leaving now!"
Yuanshi Tianzun stroked his beard and smiled: "Ancient history has not yet been opened, and the journey to the west has not yet begun. This Buddha of the past should be yours. Go!"
Ran Deng bowed and left.
In this way, the Five Elders each took charge of their own teams and officially took control of the Journey to the West universe.
Afterwards, Mingyu, Xiye, Taiyi and Fuxi all transformed into their true forms and spirits.
The Great Emperor Changsheng, the Great Emperor Ziwei, the Great Emperor and the Great Emperor Qinghua were born together, shocking the heavens.
The Four Emperors asked the gods, "My Lords, are you willing to go with me?"
The gods replied with a smile.
"Dare you not to obey?"
Then thousands of immortal lights flowed, each raising its own flag.
Shenxiao and his group followed the Changsheng Emperor.
The ancient star god follows the Purple Star Emperor.
The demon clan followed Emperor Gou Chen.
The human race chose Emperor Qinghua.
The Four Great Emperors each occupied a region, leading their subordinate immortals and gods, and began to establish the four heavenly realms.
Hou Tu looked at the Nine Heavens and smiled.
"I am the one who carries on the example of the Heaven and Earth!"
The divine light is brilliant, and the sky praises it.
Hou Tu transformed her body and soul into the Nine Netherworld, and the ghosts and gods from the ancient underworld followed closely behind her and settled in the Journey to the West underworld.
The Six Great Emperors appeared together, the Five Elders of the Five Directions returned to their positions, and all the gods of heaven and earth were present.
In an instant, the Journey to the West universe roared.
In the ancient time and space, in all the heavens and worlds, all the gods in the endless years were shocked.
I don’t know how many eyes were cast from the chaotic land, the universe, the underworld, the heavens beyond the sky, the fairy mountains overseas... many timelines, looking for traces.
Then, they saw the eleven Hunyuans and the emperors.
“Hiss~~, they are all big guys!”
"Excuse me, excuse me!"
"Big guys, you guys play, you guys play!"
"Slip away~"
…
One by one, the sights are about to disappear.
At this moment, wisps of clear air descended, filling the heavens with a mysterious power!
"Fellow Daoists, please stay!"
High above the sky, in the vast chaos, Mingyu suddenly spoke.
Across the boundless expanse of time and space, a majestic imperial figure appeared. Instantly, his golden face shone like the sun, his jade-like features resembled the heavens, nurturing subtle essences, dividing the universe, and influencing countless timelines.
All the gods were so frightened that they stopped in their tracks.
"The Great Emperor of Immortality, the Supreme God of Heaven and Heaven!"
Almost at the same time, countless immortals and gods uttered the same title.
Mingyu has many honorific titles, but in this time and place, this is the only honorific title.
"May I ask the Emperor why you have summoned us?"
Each divine thought conveyed goodwill, fearing that they would be remembered by the Lord of the Heavens in front of them at this juncture.
Unfortunately, they are destined to be disappointed.
Mingyu gazed at the immortal divine thoughts rising from the myriad heavens and worlds, across endless time and space, and smiled brilliantly: "Now that the Journey to the West universe's three thousand great ways are clear, its endless laws are complete, and its every order is perfect, aren't you all excited?"
Not moved!
Not excited at all!
The thousands of gods that emerged from endless time and space were extremely regretful at this moment.
They secretly groaned, wondering why they couldn't resist the temptation just now and ran out to see what!
Now that's good, you're being remembered.
Looking at the Changsheng Emperor with nine big words written on his face, which looked like "I'm digging a hole, are you going to jump in?", all the immortals and gods felt heartbroken.
But you can't refuse directly.
So, an immortal said tactfully: "I am not a guest of this world, and it is not appropriate for me to stay at this time point forever."
"That's not a problem." Mingyu smiled and shook her head.
At this time, the Saint Zhunti stepped forward and said with a smile: "Journey to the West is the time and space of the rise of Buddhism. It has opened the door to convenience for all living beings. There are very few restrictions. Daoist friends, you are worrying too much."
hiss~
The Western saint's words made all the immortals and gods even more uneasy.
But there are also some brave and careful ones among the immortals and gods.
"We are willing to go. I wonder if the Great Emperor can give us some guidance?"
Mingyu looked and saw that this timeline from the downstream of time and space was stirring up waves. There was an immortal god wearing a nine-yuan crown, dressed in nine-colored brocade, with a magic sword on his waist, holding the seal of the god of light in his right hand and the dragon seal of the emperor in his left hand. He had a heroic face, like a god general, and an extraordinary temperament, like an emperor.
His eyes flashed, and he smiled, "In the Journey to the West universe, the heaven and earth have been opened, and the legal principles are complete, but the ancient history is vast and blank. I need you fellow Taoists to write new chapters from those unopened time points before the Journey to the West."
The gods hesitated.
“I don’t know where to start writing the next chapter.”
In another time and space, an immortal god was asking questions. He wore a flying jade crown, dressed in nine-day black clothes, and held a black imperial seal in his right hand, as if a divine bird was circling.
Mingyu saw Him, nodded slightly, and then said: "Since the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors!"
The void fell into silence for a moment.
“We understand!”
A few clear laughs were heard.
Then, ripples appeared in the boundless space and time, spreading out little by little.
The two phantoms holding the Imperial Dragon Seal and the Black Bird Emperor Seal were the first to move.
Immediately afterwards, several deep, vast and magnificent innate energies were poured into the Journey to the West universe.
Seeing this, the immortals and gods seemed to be aroused in their competitive spirit.
They took action one after another and were projected into the Journey to the West universe one after another.
Looking at the ethereal fairy air and the flowing light, Huangdi Xuanyuan, who was standing next to Mingyu, changed his expression.
He muttered softly, "Why did I just feel a slight throbbing in my blood? Could one of my descendants be among them?"
Upon hearing this, Mingyu looked at him in surprise but didn't say anything.
On the contrary, the eyes of Baidi and Qinghuang were shining as they stared at the two phantoms leading the Thousand True Saints without blinking, with a hint of doubt in their sparkling eyes.
"Senior Brother?"
She tilted her head and frowned, looking at Mingyu.
Mingyu smiled mysteriously and quietly pointed at Nuwa and Fuxi.
At this time, Nuwa was also gazing at the Journey to the West universe.
With the addition of immortals and gods, the picture of the universe's years unfolds bit by bit.
"Brother, how about you and I each take charge of one?"
Nuwa looked back and smiled faintly, as graceful as the sound of clear water, with a radiant look.
Fuxi nodded gently and said gently, "It's just as it should be."
He looked around at the saints and asked, "Who among you will go and fish it out?"
The saints all understood and looked at each other in bewilderment.
Jie Yin clasped his hands together and said regretfully, "My junior brother and I need to take care of Xiyou, so we should entrust it to other Taoist friends."
The Great Purity Saint smiled faintly: "Six of the Eight Immortals of the Upper Cave have yet to be decided, and the Supreme Lord Laojun is unable to split himself up."
Taiyi spread his hands, expressing his helplessness: "I have a brother who needs to be taken care of."
Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Jiaozhu wanted to take action, but Houtu spoke first.
She nodded to Taiqing first, then said, "Leave the Shi Qilin to me, fellow Daoist Zhenyuan, and fellow Daoist Hongyun."
"good!"
Emperor Yan Hongyun and Zhen Yuanzi bowed their heads and praised it together.
"Then it's settled!"
Mingyu said so.
He reached out and patted Pa Xuanyuan's shoulder, then said, "Among the three emperors of the human race, only the Human Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor have close ties with the Dragon Clan. As for the Ancestral Dragon, you and the Great God must work together to find a solution."
Huangdi Xuanyuan nodded and said solemnly: "Don't worry!"
Nuwa came to Baidi's side, looked at her with a smile, and said softly: "The black bird of destiny descended to give birth to the Shang Dynasty. Her footprints will be found in this ancient history. Just wait with me. Understand?"
The little phoenix nodded gently: "Yes!"
In the end, she couldn't help but look at the unfolding picture of time in the Journey to the West universe.
After hesitating for a moment, she looked up and asked Nuwa, "Can I go and take a look?"
Nuwa smiled.
She casually took off a golden hairpin from her hair and threw it into the long river of time and space, pinning it to a certain node.
"Go!"
Bai Di looked excited. She thought for a moment, took out a real phoenix feather from her sleeve, and threw it into that space-time node.
Mingyu took a glance and felt that the phoenix feather looked familiar.
…
The saints and emperors planned the journey to the West, and thousands of gods transformed themselves to join in the fun.
But this did not prevent them from leaving me in the Honghuang Heavenly Palace for a feast.
The good thing about having so many vests!
The interests of all parties are taken into account, and you can enjoy both the fun and the excitement.
The immortals and gods roaming in the heavens calculated that there were still five hundred years before the Xuanhuang Banquet began.
Then they gathered one after another towards the high and divine sky.
At this time, one could see auspicious clouds covering the Divine Sky Realm, and countless rays of light filling the sky.
Immortals and gods kept formally handing in their invitations and entering the venue.
"Master Kongming of Weiyu Mountain has joined the guild and is presented with the Immortal Ganoderma of the Cave Heaven."
"Master Xuanbo of Yuping Cave Heaven has joined the guild and is presented with a pair of jade chimes."
"Barefoot Immortal joins the guild and is presented with free pear and fire dates!"
"The ancient immortal Du'e from Western Kunlun has joined the guild and is being presented with the Green Lotus Golden Pill!"
“…”
Although the Xuanhuang Banquet in Gaoshang Shenxiao covers the three realms and is very large in scale, many of its rules are still inherited from the conventions of the Peach Banquet.
For example: It’s best not to eat or drink for free.
How much is given is secondary.
The main thing is that everyone has come here in person, so they should at least have some dignity.
Generally, people will give special products of their respective dojo as a token of their appreciation.
"Master, do you think I should prepare some specialties from Chentangguan?"
In a corner of the banquet, a god with a heroic face sat upright.
"Chentangguan has specialties? How come I didn't know about it?"
Du'e Zhenren looked at Li Jing and saw how meticulous he was. He smiled and said, "Relax, the atmosphere in Honghuang is not that serious."
"After the war, I was forced to ascend to the Primordial Realm, and it took me a while to come to terms with it."
Li Jing said so, but he gradually let down his guard and sat in meditation like a Taoist immortal.
In the battle of Chentang Pass, immortals and demons sacrificed their lives one after another. After Li Jing's chance to become a Taoist god was reached, he was forced to leave the immortal and demon universe and ascend to the prehistoric world.
The current situation of his wife and children in the immortal and demon universe is still unknown.
"You already know the whole story. If you are really worried, you can transform yourself and go back after the banquet." Master Du'e told Li Jing that the speed of time flowing in the two worlds is different.
"Five hundred years after the prehistoric era, Nezha is only seven years old. This is the perfect time for Taoist Taiyi to teach him."
"That's the best."
Li Jing finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Master Du'e nodded with satisfaction, took a cup of nectar and savored it carefully.
"Go on and tell me about your Chentangguan specialty."
"Well..." Li Jing smiled and said, "Master knows that Chentangguan is close to Dongji Tianyuan, where real dragons often appear. This specialty is naturally..."
“Puff~~”
“Ahem!”
Upon hearing this, Master Du'e choked on the elixir before it even entered his throat.
"Jing'er, shut up!"
He raised his hand to strengthen the restrictions around him.
Li Jing saw this and quickly whispered, "Is there something wrong?"
Master Du'e slapped his forehead and said with a wry smile, "I blame you for this. I didn't expect you to ascend so early, so I forgot to tell you some common sense about the Primordial Realm."
He rummaged in his sleeve and found a scroll of scriptures.
Li Jing took it and took a look.
"The Book of Delicacies from Mountains and Seas?"
Master Du'e nodded and said, "Take a good look at the Overseas Sutra and don't eat anything from now on."
"Catch some dragon blood to satisfy your hunger. As long as you don't get caught, it won't be a problem."
"It's best not to touch a real dragon!"
Li Jing read it carefully, pointed to a certain chapter, and asked, "The Huanlong clan said that the true dragons of the prehistoric world are very different from the true dragons of the myriad realms, and that the dragon clan generally doesn't care about so-called true dragons that they raise and cultivate themselves."
"Professionals all say this, so does this mean..."
Du'e was speechless.
Why is this disciple's focus so strange?
What’s the matter with your family fighting against the real dragon?
Master Du'e glanced at him unhappily: "It's fine if it's somewhere else, but anything at your doorstep must not be touched!"
The "real dragons" elsewhere may be fake.
But the one in front of Li Jing’s house is absolutely authentic!
