Chapter 2 Heavenly Court's Appeasement, 6 Ding and 6 Jia
Only then did Chen Xuan notice the immortal stone beside him. Suddenly, his heart tightened and he fell into deep thought.
As his thoughts raced, he couldn't help but think to himself, "This is bad."
As far as he knows.
This magical stone is a five-colored stone that was left over when Nuwa mended the sky!
Among them, the spirit of gestation is none other than one of the four chaotic monkeys - the Spiritual Stone Monkey, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, the Demon King, Sun Wukong!
I thought that after transmigrating to a world of immortal cultivation, I could take human form and attain enlightenment, and from then on become a revered ancestor, playing games in the mortal world and living a carefree and unrestrained life.
Little did I know, this was the world of Journey to the West!
As a seasoned novel enthusiast, how could he not know the dangers of the Journey to the West world?
This is a messed-up world full of conspiracy theories and 'connections' everywhere!
Being a monster is fine, but if you don't understand human relationships and social graces...
Then just wait to die!
To become an immortal?
Don't assume that having a permanent position means you're free from risk!
Since the Heavenly Court is ruled by immortals, it must contend with the Buddhist sect!
As you can see, in the later Journey to the West, when the Monkey King wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace, the 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals were just a part of the fun for all the gods and Buddhas!
And the powerful nine-headed lion, when it escaped to the mortal realm to complete the Journey to the West KPI, also swallowed 100,000 heavenly soldiers in one gulp!
They're just cannon fodder; once they die, they're gone!
In short, Chen Xuan dreamed of becoming an ancestor, indulging in the company of beautiful women, and wielding power over the world...
Broken!
The kind that shatters into pieces!
"Damn it, I need to get out of Flower Fruit Mountain right now. I don't want to get caught in their trap..."
As his thoughts drifted, Chen Xuan broke out in a cold sweat, quite frightened, and the idea of "fleeing" began to take root in his mind.
At the same time, I silently prayed that I, an insignificant ant, would not be noticed by the great beings of the heavens.
After all, he didn't want to get involved in the Journey to the West tribulation!
Even if this life is ordinary and unremarkable, and one cannot become a respected ancestor, one can simply find a place to live a quiet life and become a hermit who lives a long and healthy life. That would be a good choice.
"Monkey, if possible... I'll come back to see you again sometime, and we can have a good chat, but for now, I have to go!"
Before leaving, Chen Xuan walked to the five-colored immortal stone, patted it gently, and then turned into a streak of light, flying towards the outside of Flower Fruit Mountain.
What?
Climbing the social ladder and sucking up to the monkey?
Please, stop messing around. He doesn't want to get involved with that troublemaker monkey in any way!
When the calamity of the Journey to the West begins, the Heavenly Court will send troops to attack Flower Fruit Mountain. At that time, the demons will wail and the land will be barren, a scene of utter desolation and misery.
Chen Xuan dared not gamble with his life!
……
Two flowers bloom, one branch each.
After Chen Xuan underwent the tribulation of transformation and attained immortality,
at the same time.
On the throne in the Heavenly Court, in the Lingxiao Palace.
The Supreme Jade Emperor of the Golden Palace of the Vast Heaven suddenly felt something.
His eyes narrowed slightly, their divine light swirling, as if trying to pierce through the endless void and survey the entire Flower Fruit Mountain, already knowing the whole story.
"A primordial species... the Golden Thunder Bamboo... This child possessed numerous supernatural abilities and wondrous techniques of Taoism from the moment he was born; something is amiss!"
"It seems a calamity is about to befall the Journey to the West!"
After a moment's thought, the Jade Emperor issued a decree ordering the gods to descend to earth and carry out the task of appeasing the people.
--------
Almost at the same time.
Thirty-three days, inside the Eight Views Palace.
An old Taoist priest with white hair and beard, exuding an air of otherworldly wisdom, sat upright on a cloud platform. He wore a Taiqing white jade crown and held a white jade whisk. His eyes, when they opened and closed, emanated a profound Taoist charm.
"This little spirit bamboo is so interesting... Such a variable is truly fascinating! Since this child possesses so many wondrous techniques of our Daoist school, how can he not join our sect?"
As the old Taoist muttered to himself, he summoned his only personal disciple, Xuandu, and ordered him to descend to the mortal realm.
Whether it's a grant of amnesty from the Heavenly Court or not.
Or perhaps it was the Grand Master Xuandu descending to the mortal realm.
The prelude to the great calamity of Journey to the West...
And so it begins!
----------
At this point, the farsighted Chen Xuan had already begun his escape overnight.
In his view, Flower Fruit Mountain was a place of trouble, attracting the attention of countless powerful figures even before the Journey to the West began.
If he hadn't taken human form, it wouldn't matter, but now that he has hands and feet and can move freely, he naturally needs to get away from here first and then make further plans.
However, things didn't go as planned!
Just as they were about to leave the territory of Huaguo Mountain, unexpectedly, in the next instant, they saw a rain of golden rain falling from the sky, with countless heavenly flowers falling in disarray, auspicious vapors rising, and purple clouds coming from the east for thirty thousand miles.
Chen Xuan looked closely and saw twelve divine generals descending with imposing presence.
Six men and six women, all clad in golden armor and wielding silver halberds, exuded divine might and solemnity.
Chen Xuan was surprised.
When the leading general saw Chen Xuan, he looked him up and down and was equally surprised.
I don't know what Your Majesty was thinking. There are so many immortal cultivators in the world, why did you choose such an ordinary earth immortal to serve as an official in heaven and enter the register of immortals?
Although I was puzzled and confused, I could not disobey the decree of the Heavenly Emperor, so I had to do as he said.
"Fellow Daoist, please wait!"
"I am Wang Wenqing, the Divine General of the Jiazi Year, summoned by the Jade Emperor to invite you, fellow Daoist, to ascend to Heaven... to receive your investiture!"
……
Boom—
Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan's head immediately started buzzing.
When he heard the coded message "Fellow Daoist, please wait," he knew something terrible was about to happen.
Sure enough, he was still being "targeted"!
And the first to come knocking...
He's actually the ruler of Heaven!?
As far as he knows.
This Jade Emperor, who sits high above the heavens, is not the fool in the Journey to the West TV series who would hide under the table and shout "Go and invite the Buddha!" whenever the Monkey King wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace.
In this desolate, ancient world, in the Journey to the West universe, the Jade Emperor is one of the most powerful beings in the world!
What happened to the Daoist disciple of Dao Ancestor Hongjun?
Under heaven, only the Six Sages of Heaven and Earth, the Six Emperors who restrain each other, and the Western Spirit Mountain can overpower him!
Suddenly being approached by this person, who even sent the Six Ding and Six Jia Divine Generals to offer amnesty, is a blessing or a curse that remains to be seen.
However, neither of them is something Chen Xuan can resist at present.
"Yes, I'm sorry to trouble you gods to guide me to heaven. This is just a small token of my respect."
Since he was already there, Chen Xuan took a deep breath, bowed respectfully, and secretly slipped twelve gold leaves from his pocket into Wang Wenqing's hand as a token of his gratitude.
It wasn't that he was being obsequious or flattering.
After all, even a minor official like him has to serve under a prime minister. Now that he has been appointed as an official by the Heavenly Court, he will inevitably have to deal with the Six Ding and Six Jia gods in the future.
Therefore, this kind of personnel work still needs to be done.
These golden leaves come from Chen Xuan's original form, the Golden Thunder Bamboo; we have plenty of them!
"..."
Upon receiving the gold leaf from Chen Xuan, Jiazi Divine General paused for a moment, seemingly finally understanding why this young man had caught the eye of the Jade Emperor.
Hmm, he's a pretty shrewd guy!
Getting it right!
"You're too kind, fellow Daoist!"
The generals didn't stand on ceremony and immediately accepted Chen Xuan's offer, distributing the gold leaves. Their previous solemnity and seriousness were replaced by bright and kind smiles.
It's just...
Approachable!
