After flying for more than half a month in the Earth Immortal Realm, Shui Zha found a paradise for cultivation not far from the sea. The spiritual energy here was abundant, and it was also a place where the world's clear air was concentrated.
Although the monkeys were noisy, it was more interesting.
"Eh? "This stone…Could it be…" Shui Zha could feel the fluctuation of spiritual energy coming from a huge stone tablet beside the waterfall. He tried to use his Soul Consciousness to check it, but it was bounced back by a golden light.
Flowerfruit Mountain…Spirit Stone…Flowerfruit Mountain…Spirit Stone…Could it be that this spirit stone gave birth to the legendary Great Sage, Heaven's Equal, Sun Wukong?!
In other words, he had just arrived in this world, and the Journey to the West had yet to begin!
Shui Zha placed his ear on the stone and could feel a faint energy pulsing inside, just like the little life that his wife had given birth to.
"Haha, I'll bring you along when I cultivate in the future. With my help, whether you can make a comeback in the future will depend on your own luck!”The world set up a spirit gathering array beside the spirit stone. The surrounding spirit qi quickly surged towards the spirit stone, and in the end, it became dense.
Shui Zha sat cross-legged on the side. He hid his body and focused on his dantian, absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy.
He found that there would be a Soul Consciousness scanning the area within a hundred meters of the spirit stone. To avoid trouble, Shui Zha had to use the Invisibility Talisman to hide himself.
Spring passed, summer came, autumn came, and winter came. Countless years had passed, but Shui Zha's beard had turned white nine times. This meant that he had experienced the process of life and death nine times.
After the nine times of life and death comprehension, Shui Zha was reborn again. He broke through the peak of Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal and directly jumped to the peak of Sage-to-be!
During this period of time, Shui Zha had given him all the help he could with the spiritual stones. The spiritual energy was constantly replenishing him. He had also taught him everything he knew about nature and life. As for how much he could accept, it would depend on his own luck.
The monkeys of the Flowerfruit Mountain also went one batch after another. Shui Zha had sent out a wisp of his primordial spirit to observe them closely. Besides the spiritual stone monkey, the other three spiritual monkeys had already been born.
There are five immortals in the sky, which are the gods and ghosts of heaven and earth. There are five kinds of insects, which are the scale feather insect. This fellow was neither heaven, earth, god, human, nor ghost, nor a clam, scale, feather, or insect. There were also four monkeys that were mixed in the world, not included in the ten types, jumping out of the three worlds, and not in the five elements.
The Spiritual Stone Monkey, Sun Wukong. This was the most famous of the Four Great Spiritual Monkeys. He was the Monkey King, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, who was born from the five-colored divine stone used by Goddess Nvywa to mend the sky. Sun Wukong was the only one among the four monkeys who had a master. The first master was Patriarch Subodhi (it was said that Patriarch Subodhi was Taoist Zhunti of the West), and his disciples were all over the Three Realms. The second master was Tang Sanzang, the reincarnation of the Golden Cicada Master, the second disciple of the Western Sage.
Red bottom horse monkey, also known as Huai River Wuzhi Qi. He was good at transformations, had the strength to fight against nine dragons, and was good at controlling water. Even the Water God Gonggong did not dare to claim that he was slightly better at controlling water. In the Journey to the West, he was the general of the Horse Monkey of Huaguo Mountain.
Six-Eared Macaque was not only proficient in martial arts, but he was also proficient in magic. His transformation skills were difficult to recognize even by the Demon Revealing Mirror of Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li. However, because he pretended to be Sun Wukong and snatched away Tang Sanzang's luggage, he was dropped by the Golden Alms Bowl of Gautama Buddha. He returned to his original form and finally died under Sun Wukong's staff.
Long Armed Ape Monkey. In the Battle of Deification at the end of Shang and the beginning of Zhou, Yuan Hong, the boss of the Seven Monsters of Meishan, played an important role. He fought evenly with God Erlang. Although he had not eaten the elixir of Taishang Laojun, he was still immortal. In the end, he was imprisoned by the Primordial Spiritual Treasure, the Map of Rivers and Mountains, which Goddess Nvywa obtained from Patriarch Hongjun. Finally, he was annihilated by the mysterious Taoist Lu Ya's Immortal Killing Flying Knife, which could kill gods and Buddhas. In Journey to the West, he was the monkey general of Huaguo Mountain.
"This Penniless Priest watched the three of you being born, and also watched you grow up. You, Six-Eared Macaque, are the most mischievous! However, your aptitude is not bad. I plan to let the three of you join my sect and teach you divine powers and spells. What do you think?”
Six-Eared Macaque blushed. He was good at listening to sounds. He could see things clearly. Even though Shui Zha had used the Invisibility Talisman to hide himself, he could still sense that Shui Zha was protecting the Spiritual Stone Monkey.
"Disciple greets Master!" The three monkeys were overjoyed and knelt down in unison. They naturally knew that the Taoist priest in front of them had profound magical power. Judging from the power he emitted when he broke through to the confidant realm, he was at least a Sage-to-be. He was one of the top masters in the Earth Immortal Realm!
With such a super expert as his master, not only would he have a backer, but he would also be able to learn a truly powerful skill.
"Get up! The three of you were born with divine powers, but they haven't been discovered yet. The techniques I'm teaching you today are to let you comprehend and discover your divine powers as soon as possible, and to strengthen them! I'll teach you other divine powers and spells in the future.”
"Long Armed Ape Monkey, you are my eldest disciple. You can take the sun and moon, shrink a thousand mountains, distinguish blame, and manipulate heaven and earth. These are all your divine arts. I will teach you the Hunyuan Art and the Heaven and Earth Great Shift. If you cultivate them wholeheartedly, your strength and divine arts will increase by a hundred times!”
"Red-Bottomed Horseape, you are my second disciple. You know Yin and Yang, know human affairs, are good at entering and leaving, and avoid death and prolong life. I'll teach you the Hunyuan Art, Heavenly Dao Arithmetic, and Yin-Yang Array Formation!”
"Six-Eared Macaque, you are my third disciple. You are good at listening to sounds and can see things clearly. I'll teach you the numbers of the Hunyuan Art and the Limitless Formation!”
Shui Zha wanted to give him some gifts, but he was so poor now.
He counted with his fingers. The Spiritual Stone Monkey was about to come out. Shui Zha told his three disciples to cultivate in the cave while he flew out to check.
As soon as they left the Water Curtain Cave, the sounds of intense battle could be heard clearly. Shui Zha looked up and saw a monk covered in Buddhist light and a handsome man in a long robe fighting. It was quite intense!
Shui Zha counted with his fingers and realized that it was the fated person between Yang Jian and the Golden Cicada Master, the Spiritual Stone Monkey!
Both of them were Perfected Golden Immortals, so it was difficult to determine the winner. Wherever the battle went, gravel flew, and only the spirit stone remained intact.
The two of them struck the spirit stone with their full strength. The spirit stone shattered, and a naked stone monkey jumped out from it, soaring into the clouds!
The Golden Cicada Master and Yang Jian were both stunned in their previous lives. They stopped fighting and looked at the stone monkey that had flown into the sky and disappeared in the blink of an eye."Amitabha. This monkey is fated with Buddha. Almsgiver Yang, if we continue to fight, I'm afraid we won't be able to determine the winner even after three days and three nights.”
Yang Jian could not do anything to him in his previous life, so he could only nod in agreement.
The moment the stone monkey jumped out of the spirit stone, it flew around excitedly for a while. Then, it sensed the aura of the Taoist priest who had guarded it for thousands of years and quickly searched for him.
"Thank you for protecting the stone monkey. Please take it in!”When the stone monkey saw the splashing water, it knelt on the ground.
Shui Zha helped him up with relief. He had seen it with his own eyes. He had a deep affection for the stone monkey.
"Then you will be my fourth disciple. I will teach you the Art of Origin and the Immortal Golden Body. You will need it in the future! However, you will have other masters in the future, and you will learn even more divine arts!”
The stone monkey didn't understand, but he nodded. He memorized the Art of Origin and the Immortal Golden Body. He arranged his disciples. Each disciple had a stick, the Battle God Armor, and the Four Symbols Orbs. The stone monkey stayed at the Flowerfruit Mountain, Yuan Hong went to the Plum Mountain, and the rest were ignored. Shui Zha continued to travel.
"Eh? Why was it suddenly so hot?”Shui Zha suddenly felt as if the air around him was burning. He counted with his fingers and frowned. It was a Three-legged Golden Crow passing by him!
However, why didn't this Golden Crow cultivate on the Fusang Tree? Why did he run to the human world?
" Let go of me, let go of me!" A woman's cry for help could be heard. Shui Zha looked over and saw a young man in golden armor holding an unknown weapon. He was holding a woman in a white robe and flying in the air.
" Hmph!" A cold snort came from the man's nostrils." Don't even think about it! The rules of the heavens cannot be broken. If I don't behead you and Yang Jian in public, how can I maintain the dignity of the Heavenly Court?”
"A three-legged crow dares to run around. This poor priest really admires your courage!”Shui Zha revealed himself and then changed into an old Taoist priest. He stood in front of the golden crow. Since he had encountered him, he wouldn't just sit back and watch.
Moreover, the Third Holy Mother Yang Chan had always been the goddess in his heart. It was not an exaggeration to say that he grew up listening to the story of the Third Holy Mother.
"What did you say? I am a Three-legged Golden Crow, the Crown Prince of the Jade Emperor, not a crow! Who are you to block my way?!”The other party could see through his background at a glance. Clearly, he was not an ordinary person.
Shui Zha chuckled." It's all the same. It doesn't matter if it's a three-legged crow or a three-legged golden crow. You're not cultivating on the Fusang Tree, but you're here to harm the human world. You're a weak woman with a strong gun and no strength. Aren't you ashamed?" And he was the Crown Prince of the Jade Emperor!”
The muscles on the golden crow's face moved for a while, and his eyes were filled with anger."She is a wanted criminal of the Heavenly Court, and I was only ordered to arrest her. Aren't you afraid of getting into trouble? I'll warn you one last time. It's not easy for you to cultivate for a thousand years. Don't ruin it just because of a single mistake!”
"That's right, Taoist priest. Leave quickly. If you save me, you'll be making an enemy of the entire Heavenly Court. You can't defeat them.”Yang Chan, who was tied up, shook his head in pain and urged Shui Zha to leave quickly.
Ling Feng's heart ached as he watched her being roasted by the golden crow until white smoke rose.
Shui Zha put his palms together and said,"Buddha Light Illumination!" A dazzling golden light immediately shot out from his palms and instantly enveloped the Golden Crow.
When the golden light dissipated, the golden crow opened his eyes, only to find that the Taoist priest and the wanted criminal had disappeared.
"Hmph, it's actually the people of the Western Religious Sect. You won't have a good ending if you go against the Heavenly Court!”The golden crow knew that he was no match for them alone, so he decided to report to the celestial heavens first.
A thousand miles away, Shui Zha returned to his original form." Miss, I see that you are kind-hearted. Why did you become a criminal of the Heaven?”
Yang Chan saw that the Taoist priest had transformed. Although he was still wearing a purple Taoist robe, he was like a different person. He was handsome and dignified. The warm smile on his face made him look like a friendly big brother. She also knew that immortals could change!
Yang Chan couldn't help but reminisce about the happy days in Guanjiang Mouth. His honest father, his kind and beautiful mother, his honest elder brother, his naughty second brother, and himself…
Although Shui Zha had heard this story in his distant hometown more than once, he was still deeply shocked by Yang Chan's sorrowful memories.
As for how he felt, he felt sympathy, but more than that, he felt heartache.
Although Yang Chan was still a little girl who didn't know anything, hadn't obtained the Lotus Lamp, and hadn't become the Third Holy Mother of Mount Hua, it didn't affect her image as a kind and beautiful goddess in his heart.
Seeing Yang Chan crying so hard, Shui Zha took out a handkerchief and handed it to her." Heaven is heartless, but the Jade Emperor is even more heartless. He could even kill his own sister!" And he himself had married the Queen Mother and gave birth to ten Golden Crows and seven princesses. Wasn't that against the heavenly rules?”
The Jade Emperor's behavior of 'only allowing the officials to set fires and not allowing the commoners to light lamps' made people very angry. Shui Zha was a man of his own nature. He really wanted to fly up to the sky and kick the old Jade Emperor off his throne. He wanted to let him have a taste of losing his family!
Of course, this was only a thought. Perhaps no one in the Heavenly Court was his match for the time being, but any one of the Two Sages of the West could make him fall into eternal damnation. Of course, he was the guardian of the Mystic Gate. There was also the possibility that he would not be able to do so unless he unsealed his original Primordial Chaos Supreme cultivation or his second brother Pangu made a move.
He was waiting for the day of the apotheosis. After the apotheosis, the Sage would retire! At the same time, he was also accumulating merit. With merit protecting his body, he could use all kinds of techniques without harming his body.，Unsealing the peak of the Saint Realm.
Yang Chan took the handkerchief and gently wiped the tears from his face and eyes. He hesitated for a while, but still knelt down." Benefactor, I shouldn't be greedy, but Second Brother is really my only family. I beg Benefactor to save Second Brother."”
Shui Zha quickly helped Yang Chan up." Miss Yang, get up. I've seen your second brother before, but he's already learned a lot of skills. I'm afraid those shrimp soldiers and crab generals of the Heaven Court can't do anything to him. Don't worry!"”
"Really?" Yang Chan was ecstatic. She was most worried about her second brother's safety. That day, the two of them had discussed that as long as one of them was alive, they would go and learn from a master. Even if they had to risk their lives, they would save their mother!
"Then where is Second Brother now? Does benefactor know?" His second brother had finally returned from his studies, giving Yang Chan hope of saving his mother and reuniting the family.
It was only after losing her that she realized how blissful it was for a family to be close to each other!
Shui Zha shook his head with a smile." Brother Yang and the Second Disciple of the Sage of the West, the Golden Cicada, were fighting outside my cave abode. Their powers were equally matched, and it was difficult to determine the winner. So, they gave up and left. I don't know where they went after that."”
Yang Chan's joyful gaze dimmed." It's alright, as long as Second Brother is safe. I still have to thank you for saving my life today. Please accept my bow!"”
Shui Zha quickly stopped her." You can't. I saved you today because it's fate. Besides, you're kind. Even if I don't save you, someone else will!"”
Shui Zha suddenly grabbed Yang Chan's hand, and her pretty face turned red. Her shy eyes met Shui Zha's affectionate eyes, and she quickly lowered her head.
An aura spread out from the surroundings. It was Ai Mei's aura.
Shui Zha was amused by Yang Chanxiu's blushing face, but he didn't dare to take advantage of her. He quickly let go and said,"Miss, this poor priest will take his leave now. If there is anything, you can come to Chentang Pass Li Mansion to find this poor priest!”
Yang Chan nodded, but he still did not have the courage to raise his head.
Suddenly, she realized something and hurriedly raised her head to look for him. However, the Taoist priest was already far away from her. Looking at his back, her thoughts were indescribably complicated.
That night, Shui Zha's Primordial Spirit left his body and entered the Nether World. He searched from the first floor to the eighteenth floor before he found the souls of Yang Tianyou and Yang Jiao. Unfortunately, Yang Tianyou's soul was on the verge of collapse. Yang Jiao had a half-immortal body, so there might be a glimmer of hope.
The Jade Emperor's ruthlessness made Ling Feng sweat. Even after a person died, he would not let go of his soul.
Shui Zha carefully observed Yang Tianyou's soul. What ability did he have to make Yaoji, the Goddess of Desire, think of the mortal world?
Or had Yaoji been lonely in the sky for too long?
It was true that Yang Tianyou was honest, but there were many honest people in the world. He was not the only one!
Shaking his head, Shui Zha tried his best not to think too much. He took Yang Jiao's half-dead soul and quickly left. The moment Shui Zha left, Yang Tianyou's soul also reached the end and turned into ashes.
He had brought his soul back and walked all the way to today. Without the guidance of his master, he had comprehended everything from the memories of his predecessor, Primordial Supreme. For example, the transformation technique, it did not matter whether it was thirty-six or seventy-two transformations. He could transform as he wished without being noticed by others. For example, the technique of riding clouds and riding fog, he had another way to break through space and move instantly. He called it teleportation for short.
However, according to his plan, if he wanted Yang Jiao to return to the sun, he had to find his physical body. However, his physical body had long been destroyed by the heavenly soldiers, so he could only reconstruct his physical body.
Shui Zha calculated with his fingers to find the whereabouts of Yang Jiao's mother Yaoji. Only by finding her could he use his method to reconstruct Yang Jiao's body.
"This old Jade Emperor is quite capable. He made this poor priest's heavenly fate lose its effect!”Shui Zha clicked his tongue and sighed. However, he still had a special skill.”
A golden eye immediately appeared on his forehead. It looked somewhat similar to Yang Jian's Heavenly Eye. That golden eye enveloped every corner of the three worlds, scanning layer by layer and breaking through all hidden arrays.
He counted with his fingers again. Not only did he find the Peach Mountain where Yaoji was imprisoned, but he also found his Nascent Divinity cultivation base!
This secret technique was ruthless, and he had comprehended it himself. Although he could see everything, it had shaken a small part of his origin soul. He would need at least ten years to cultivate before he could use it again.
He teleported into the Peach Mountain. The defensive formation couldn't trap him. When Ling Feng saw Yaoji, his hair was disheveled like a waterfall. He looked like a lunatic. His eyes were dull.
Shui Zha could understand why she was like this. She had witnessed her husband and child being killed by her nephew, but she couldn't do anything about it. How could she not go crazy?
If it was him, Shui Zha, and someone killed his wife and children right under his nose, he would probably go crazy too. Anyone with feelings would go crazy.
Shui Zha stood beside her for a long time before Yaoji slowly raised her head. The next moment, her eyes widened. Her hands trembled as she pointed at Shui Zha in disbelief."Tianyou? Is it really you, Tianyou?" Because the person she saw was her late husband, Yang Tianyou.
Shui Zha felt guilty. He had seen Yang Tianyou's soul in the netherworld and absorbed his aura. He transformed into Yang Tianyou, and even Yaoji's Heavenly Eye couldn't tell.
However, thinking that he was doing this to save her son, Shui Zha temporarily put down his guilt and uneasiness.
