Volume 4: Journey to the West Chapter 3 I came to this world to open Maoshan
When Tengu's voice came, Jiale immediately scanned it with his mind.
"Taibai Jinxing!"
Jiale understood immediately that this was the sound of a breakthrough, which had attracted him here. It must have been someone sent by the Jade Emperor. However, Jiale had no plans to contact the Jade Emperor at this moment. He still had many things he needed to understand, so he would talk about meeting the Jade Emperor later.
"Walk!"
Taibai Jinxing has only reached the level of Taiyi Jinxian, so it is not difficult for Jiale to leave.
After saying that, Jiale and Tengu disappeared directly into the cave.
The Taibai Golden Star fell on Shuangcha Ridge. After sweeping the entire Shuangcha Ridge with his divine sense, he did not find any cultivator above the level of Taiyi Golden Immortal. No, he could not even find a Xuan Immortal.
After thinking for a while, Taibai Jinxing landed directly in front of a tiger monster.
General Yin, who was feeling depressed, was stunned after seeing Taibai Jinxing. He wondered if he had been unlucky recently, otherwise, why would there be powerful cultivators coming to him again and again? The way the one in front of him appeared was almost exactly the same as the previous one, both of them appeared in front of him silently.
There is no doubt that he must be a master, stronger than him.
"Great Immortal, the small ones are not tasty. Look, there are two delicious ones next to them, a stupid bear and a fat cow. Do you want me to call them over to you? I heard that bear paws and beef tendons are very delicious."
After this experience, I have to say that General Yin has become very proficient in this art of speaking and can utter it fluently.
The three monsters are used to eating and practicing. The immortal can't be looking for them for practicing, so they can only be eaten. They definitely can't eat the immortal, so the immortal can only eat them. It must be said that General Yin has also studied the jungle law of the cultivation world thoroughly.
However, his words confused Taibai Jinxing so much that he couldn't help but take out a mirror to look at himself. Does he look ferocious? Does he look like an immortal who wants to eat monsters?
No, he is very handsome and amiable.
This tiger's brain must not be working properly. Forget it. Asking this kind of monster will affect my IQ. I'd better change it.
Taibai Jinxing disappeared immediately. General Yin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw this. He thought to himself that he was smart and that Dong Yin was getting more and more proficient in using this trick. Look, he saved another life.
The next moment, Taiyi Jinxing appeared in front of Xiong Shanjun.
Xiong Shanjun has been frightened recently, and he has been acting like a demon. When he saw an immortal suddenly appear, his first reaction was that he thought it was Jia Le. After he saw clearly that it was not Jia Le, but an old immortal with a white beard, he couldn't help but get even more scared. Although the immortals don't get higher in level as they get older, those with high levels of cultivation are definitely not weak.
"Great Immortal, the small ones are not tasty. Look, there are two delicious ones next to them, a black tiger and a fat cow. Do you want me to call them over to you? I heard that tiger bones and beef tendons are very delicious."
Um!
What kind of problem is this?
I have to say, people learn from people, no, demons learn from demons very quickly. Xiong Shanjun has already learned and put to use General Yin's trick of diverting trouble to others.
At this time, Taibai Jinxing's face was full of black lines. After all, he was just asking for directions, but why did it sound like he wanted to eat a monster?
He is a god. Gods eat immortal fruits and drink nectar.
"Stop talking nonsense. There are no other cultivators in Shuangcha Ridge except you three fools. They are powerful."
Upon hearing this, Xiong Shanjun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed that he still looked down on them and wanted to eat something more powerful.
There are some amazing ones.
"Great Immortal, you asked the right question. There really is one. That immortal is much more powerful than us. He wants to eat us. It's obvious that he is not a good immortal. Great Immortal, you are so immortal, so you can go and subdue him."
As he said that, Xiong Shanjun took Taibai Jinxing towards General Yin's cave.
However, Taibai Jinxing was a little alert, thinking to himself, could it be that the one who broke through to the Taiyi Golden Immortal was an evil cultivator? That shouldn't be the case. The pure energy when he broke through couldn't deceive people. This was not something an evil cultivator could possess.
Never mind, I'd better follow him and take a look. However, this monk's hiding skills are very good, even he didn't notice him.
Taibai Jinxing was not worried about any danger. He had full confidence in his cultivation. A Taiyi Jinxian who had just broken through could not pose any threat to him.
"Great Immortal, this is it."
Xiong Shanjun brought Taibai Jinxing to General Yin's cave, but he took a few steps back with lingering fear. Taibai Jinxing could only shake his head. No wonder these three guys could only stay at this junction. They were too timid and had no demonic nature at all.
"Are you sure that the immortal you mentioned is here?"
Taibai Jinxing looked at Xiong Shanjun with a strange expression. There was clearly no one here. With his level of cultivation, if there really was someone at such a close distance, how could it be hidden from him?
"Yes, that immortal said that he wanted to use this cave temporarily for cultivation, and asked us to behave well."
Taibai Jinxing couldn't help feeling a little disappointed when he heard that. He opened the cave with one hand and looked at the empty space inside. Xiong Shanjun couldn't help feeling a little surprised. Where is the immortal?
Taibai Jinxing also almost understood what was going on. It seemed that the person had left.
Now that the person is gone, Taibai Jinxing no longer has the desire to stay. It is too difficult to communicate with three fools.
Return to heaven.
"Emperor, when I went to look for the immortal who had just achieved a breakthrough, he was gone. He probably didn't want to see me, so he left early."
Upon hearing this, the Jade Emperor nodded and didn't say much.
Although Heaven is the center of the Three Realms, not all immortals yearn to come here. At least immortals above the level of Taiyi Golden Immortal are not very interested in this place. This result is not surprising.
Dongsheng Shenzhou.
Jiale consulted the memories of the previous world and came to Maoshan, but found that there was no Maoshan. It turned out that there was no Maoshan at this time?
Yes, when passing through Jambu Continent, the human dynasty was still the end of the Qin Dynasty, which means that Ge Xuan had not yet attained enlightenment, so where did Maoshan come from!
Thinking of this, Jiale couldn't help but feel a little confused.
Since he started practicing, he has always regarded himself as a Maoshan monk. Every time he entered a new world, he would first think of Maoshan. He also joined Maoshan one after another. However, until this world, Maoshan was gone. Where should he go!
Riding the Shangqing fairy cloud, wandering over the Dongsheng Divine Continent.
However, they discovered that in the vast Dongsheng Shenzhou, there was not a trace of Shangqing aura. In other words, although the Dongsheng Shenzhou was vast, it did not have any Shangqing Taoist tradition.
Looking down, Jiale slowly fell down.
It turned out to be a place near the East China Sea, with many human cities and a bustling crowd.
Jambu Continent is where humans live, but that doesn’t mean there are no humans in the other three continents. It’s just that there are not as many as in Jambu Continent.
There are many immortal traces in Dongsheng Shenzhou, which is the place where Xuanmen preaches. In contrast to Xiniu Hezhou, one is the place where Xuanmen preaches, and the other is the place where Buddhism preaches, with a clear distinction. In the past, Nanzhanbuzhou was also dominated by Xuanmen. This time, the Buddhism is thriving, which gives Buddhism an opportunity to take advantage of.
Under this general trend, Buddhism finally had the opportunity to invade the Southern Continent on a large scale.
All the greed, lust, killing, and fighting, the fierce arguments, the sea of right and wrong, in the end it all comes down to one word: true fragrance. Buddhism emphasizes faith and incense. What Tathagata said is not a problem. He just wants to enter Jambudvīpa under the slogan of Buddha saving all living beings and treat those countless human beings as pigs and suppliers of faith.
It is possible that Xuanmen really does not like the hustle and bustle of the world in Jambu Continent.
Few cultivators above the fairyland are willing to enter the Southern Continent. The branches established in the Southern Continent almost only leave a few small people to maintain the orthodoxy, and no high-level cultivators get involved.
But even so, when it comes to competing for faith, Buddhism is still difficult to compete with Taoism.
However, from now on, it is estimated that Buddhism will enter Jambudvīpa in large numbers, and I am afraid that there will be many more temples in Jambudvīpa in the future.
Jiale had his eyes on a nearby mountain.
Arriving at the front of the mountain, I found that the mountain was not ownerless, which was understandable. After all, although the Dongsheng Continent was large, the various sects had developed for so long that no spiritual place would be left out.
After discovering that Maoshan had not appeared yet, Jiale had an idea.
Since Maoshan has not yet established a foothold in this world, then let's start with him.
I came to this world to open up Maoshan.
In such a vast world of Journey to the West, how could there be no traces of Maoshan? If there were none before, there should be one now. However, to open a mountain, there must be a mountain first.
It is not easy to attack those fairy mountains that have been occupied by monks. The world of Journey to the West is a world that emphasizes background and inheritance.
Even if it is the most inconspicuous fairy mountain, it is very likely that the smaller ones will be attacked, and then the older ones will come, and finally a series of big guys will be brought out, so you can only pick the weak ones.
In this Dongsheng Shenzhou, which is the softest persimmon?
Without a doubt, it is the demon race.
The sacred mountain before us is occupied by a demon from the Golden Immortal Realm. In that case, there is no need to be polite.
Lingshan is close to the human city and the concentration of spiritual energy is not small. Lingshan is also large enough. It is definitely a great place to establish a sect.
One step to the top of Lingshan Mountain.
Jia Le's aura was not concealed at all. As soon as he arrived at the mountain, he was sensed by the Snow Lion Golden Immortal who was the king of the mountain.
"Who are you? How dare you break into my Qingyuan Mountain!"
The snow lion dog barked and rushed towards Jiale, but when it arrived next to Jiale, it was completely speechless.
Because the dogs that Jiale kept with him were all Golden Immortals, and Jiale's cultivation level was so high that even he couldn't see through it.
"I wonder which immortal has come? I am the disciple of the Nine Spirits Saint. I hope the Immortal will stop using this method."
Um!
Nine Spirit Saint!
Upon hearing this, Jiale immediately stopped the Haotian Sword in his hand. Fortunately, he spoke quickly, otherwise he would not be able to take it back.
Jiuling Yuansheng is the mount of Dongji Qinghua Emperor Taiyi Jiuku Tianzun, and his strength is quite strong, he should be at the level of Taiyi Jinxian. No wonder this lion demon can occupy such a sacred mountain in Dongsheng Shenzhou with the cultivation of Jinxian. It turns out that he has connections.
But he really had his eyes on this sacred mountain. What should he do? It would be so embarrassing if he left like this.
Looking at the snow lion, it seems that in Journey to the West, there was a snow lion under the command of Jiuling Yuansheng. Could it be that one?
"Fellow Daoist Jiu Ling's disciple? Are you willing to practice with me?"
ah!
The Snow Lion actually wanted to say no, but the Haotian Jian just stopped and was not taken back. The murderous aura was still sharp.
The snow lion felt that if he dared to say no, he would lose his life the next moment.
Looking at Jiale's sage-like appearance, could he really not be afraid of Jiuling Yuansheng?
Or, give in?
Judging from Jiale's appearance, he must have the cultivation level of a Taiyi Golden Immortal at least, or even higher. The dog he carries with him is also at the Golden Immortal level, so it doesn't seem like it would be embarrassing for a monster to follow Jiale.
"My humble servant greets the master!"
Seeing the snow lion being so sensible, Jiale couldn't help but nodded. This was perfect. It not only solved the problem of Lingshan, but also didn't need to summon Jiuling Yuansheng. It was the best of both worlds. Jiale didn't care about Jiuling Yuansheng, but it would be bad if Taiyi Jiuku Tianzun was summoned.
"Okay, from today on, you are my Maoshan Mountain Guardian God."
Maoshan!
This is Qingyuan Mountain.
Snow Lion wanted to say something, but when he saw Jiale's look that said, "I have the final say," he just shut up.
But at this time, the snow lion seemed to have thought of something.
"Master, there is not only Xiao Yao on the mountain, but also Xiao Yao's two brothers, Huang Shi and Yao Shi. They are out meeting friends and I'm afraid they will be back soon."
Hmm! It's confirmed, it's really those disciples of Jiuling Yuansheng who wanted to die.
It seemed that they were going to Xiniu Hezhou to die from here. Now, Jiale has occupied their mountain and saved their lives, so they are even now.
"Oh, then we'll wait for them to come back and become mountain guardians together with you."
Seeing Jiale's indifferent look, the Snow Lion became more depressed. The demons have less and less power, and the Golden Immortals can only guard the mountains. But when he thought of his own ancestor, who was a Taiyi Golden Immortal, and he was just a mount, he felt inexplicably balanced in his heart. Who is better than who?
Our ancestors used them as mounts, so it seems that they are more impressive to be mountain guardian gods.
But what does Maoshan mean? Is it just a change of name?
Looking at the Maoshan in front of him, Jiale was very satisfied, but it still needed some renovation.
Jiale directly summoned out the Angry Chicken, Xiaohong, the Black Horse, the Green Pine and the Green Bamboo.
As if that wasn't enough, Jiale summoned seven golden crows and more than ten thousand fire crows from the Wan Ya Gourd. This would be his base from now on, so he had to build it up well.
After experiencing the Three Realms of Maoshan, the structure of Maoshan has been deeply engraved in Jiale's heart.
The blueprint was drawn directly and handed over to Xiaohong as the chief engineer. Others started to work. The materials could be found in the Kunlun Mirror. Even if there were not enough, they could be found on Mount Mao. Mount Mao was not small in area and contained many resources.
It's not just the spirit beasts summoned by Jiale, there are also thousands of little demons under the Snow Lion's command. They are all cheap labor and can be used together.
But the Snow Lion was really confused at this time. With so many monsters, were they immortals or monster kings?
After seeing these spirit beasts, the Snow Lion lost the last bit of emotion. Look at who the big guys are. There are more than ten Golden Immortals alone. Look at their bloodlines, almost each of them can suppress him. This new master is definitely the biggest of the big guys.
What else is there to say? Just focus on your work.
With so many fairylands, the speed of work was naturally not slow. In just a few years, the huge Maoshan was transformed. The Nine Palaces, Eighty-one Halls, Eight hundred side peaks, and three thousand ladders made the entire Maoshan look almost as good as the Heavenly Palace.
The snow lion looked at the scene in front of him and was shocked.
It turns out that the mountain gate can be like this. If Jia Le hadn't come, he would never have imagined in his lifetime that Qingyuan Mountain could be like this.
"Hmm! Second brother, have we come to the wrong place?"
At this moment, two figures fell from the sky and looked at the Qingyuan Mountain in front of them, unable to help but feel a little doubtful.
"That's right, big brother. This is our Qingyuan Mountain. How come it has changed so much? Snow lion, snow lion."
The little lion called out to the little snow lion loudly. The little snow lion heard the voice and hurried out. He was delighted to see the little yellow lion and the little lion coming back.
"Big Brother, Second Brother, you are finally back."
The yellow lion became even more depressed after seeing the snow lion. He indeed did not take the wrong path, but what was going on in front of him?
"Snow Lion, what's going on?"
The Snow Lion saw the confusion of the Yellow Lion and the Little Lion and quickly replied.
"Big brother, second brother, a year ago, an immortal came to the mountain and said he wanted to build a mountain gate here. He also accepted me as the guardian god of the mountain. I said at the time that you two also had a share in the mountain. For my sake, the immortal also gave you two the status of guardian gods."
Looking at the arrogant expression of the snow lion, the yellow lion and the young lion immediately felt constipated.
They still didn't agree, so their third brother sold it to them?
The mountain guardian god! Isn't he the gatekeeper?
They don't want to be the kings of the mountain but instead become gatekeepers. They must be crazy.
"Snow Lion, are you."
The yellow lion's roar came to an abrupt halt, because many monsters suddenly appeared on the opposite side, and an immortal whose aura they couldn't even see clearly floated over.
The blood pressure of those demon tribes alone made them feel uneasy. Snow Lion, what kind of great god have you invited to us?
"You must be the Yellow Lion and the Man Lion, right? You're back just in time. I need to set up the formation. If you come back too late, you may not be able to get in."
Huangshi and Mengshi opened their mouths and wanted to say something, but feeling Jiale's aura as deep as the ocean, they dared not say anything.
Jiale just said this and started to set up the formation without caring what Huangshi and Mengshi thought.
The most powerful thing about the Shangqing lineage is the formation. After becoming the head of the Shangqing sect, Jiale has already received the true teachings of Shangqing, which includes the art of formation. Now Jiale is above the art of formation. Even if he is not the best in this world, he is still first-rate.
Jiale understood the principles of Yin and Yang, and in terms of formations, the most powerful one is the Yin and Yang formation.
At this time on Mount Mao, they were preparing to set up the Yin-Yang Microdust Array.
Well! It might be a little worse than the Two Principles Micro-dust Formation that the Great Saint Taiqing comprehended, but at least it is a high-quality imitation.
This formation uses yin and yang to derive chaos, creating a big world in a tiny place. One formation is a world. When the formation is in operation, the world is born and destroyed repeatedly. Even if the Taoism is so powerful, it will never be able to survive the destruction of the world again and again.
Not only that, if this formation is controlled by the innate supreme treasure Tai Chi diagram or the innate spiritual treasure Hunyuan Yiqi Taiqing talisman, it can also reverse yin and yang, create the innate five elements, and derive the five realms of gold, wood, water, fire and earth in the formation. The five elements circulate, and the five realms circulate. If the five realms cannot be destroyed at the same time, the five realms will circulate and be reborn. Once you fall into it, even if you are a Daluo Jinxian, you will never be able to escape.
Unfortunately, Jiale does not have the innate treasure Tai Chi diagram, nor the innate spiritual treasure Hunyuan Yiqi Taiqing talisman.
But Jiale has a top-grade innate magic weapon, the Hunyuan Yiqi Taiqing Divine Talisman.
Innate magic weapons are nearly indestructible. The Demon Ancestor detonated the Demon Realm, and Master Xuandu and others were killed. However, the magic weapons still retain their power and will gradually recover. It just takes time.
Especially some high-quality innate magic weapons, have been rescued by Jiale.
The Hunyuan Yiqi Taiqing magic talisman of the great master Xuandu has now turned into a ray of spiritual light. After being restored by Jiale, it has regained some of its former appearance.
As the core of the formation, the Yin-Yang Micro-Dust Formation gathers the Yin and Yang energies, which will also help to restore the Hunyuan Yiqi Taiqing Divine Talisman in the future. They are almost complementary to each other.
As for the other magical weapons and spiritual lights that were rescued, Jiale did not bother to restore them, nor could he wait that long, so he directly put them all into the Yin-Yang Coffin.
The spiritual light of magic weapons can help to improve the spiritual weapon's foundation. If so much spiritual light of magic weapons is injected into the Yin-Yang Coffin, after a period of time, when the Yin-Yang Coffin has digested it all, it will become a top-grade innate magic weapon, and even break the limit and be promoted to an innate spiritual weapon. It is not impossible.
The Yin-Yang Micro-Dust Formation was arranged by Jiale based on his own understanding. In fact, the Yin-Yang Coffin is more suitable than the Hunyuan Yiqi Taiqing Divine Talisman. Unfortunately, the Yin-Yang Coffin is Jiale's natal magic weapon, so how could it be arranged as the center of the formation?
Jiale has high hopes for the Yin-Yang Coffin.
There are now three lamps on the lamp slot of the Yin-Yang Coffin, the lower-grade innate magic weapon Three Souls Lamp, the upper-grade innate magic weapon Coffin Lamp, and the top-grade innate magic weapon Baby Lotus Lamp.
Jia Le did not expect the accident to come so suddenly. The Precious Lotus Lantern could not be returned all of a sudden. He had no choice but to embed it on the Yin-Yang Coffin to make the best use of it.
With the addition of the Precious Lotus Lantern and the improvement of the magic weapon's aura, the Yin-Yang Coffin will be upgraded to the level of a top-grade innate magic weapon. Perhaps this will happen in this period of time.
The magic weapons that Jiale often uses nowadays are the Yin-Yang Coffin and the Four Swords of Zhu Xian, and the backup one is the Haotian Sword.
The other magic weapons are basically useless. After all, they are all high imitations, just like the magic weapons refined by Yun Zhongzi, who is the most fond of high imitations in the Chan Sect. Compared with these, Jiale prefers the original ones. The Yin-Yang Coffin will become Jiale's first original magic weapon.
As the formation was arranged, the entire Maoshan became hazy and filled with the aura of yin and yang.
However, although the yin and yang aura seems peaceful, the three yellow lions who are in it feel extremely dangerous. They think that if they are really thrown into the formation, they will not be able to hold on for long and will be killed. What kind of formation is this? It's so powerful?
Although they were curious, they dared not move. If they had some opinions before, now they were completely convinced. Let them guard the mountain. With this big formation, they would probably have a lot of free time.
It took a whole year to set up the formation. With the entry of the Hunyuan Yiqi Taiqing talisman into the formation, the Liangyi Microdust Formation was officially formed.
It will only be a high imitation version by then. Once the formation is activated, even Taiyi Jinxian will have to surrender. With this formation in place, as long as Daluo Jinxian does not come, Jiale is confident that he will be invincible.
Now that we have the mountain gate, the next step is to recruit disciples.
Jiale just wants to establish the Maoshan Taoist lineage, but he doesn't want to coax a child. When it comes to recruiting disciples, it is better to have fewer than too many.
Give the several talismans that have been refined to the three lions.
"Okay, now I'll give you your first task. Go out and look around. If you find a talisman that can make it glow green, discuss it and bring it back."
