Chapter 421 A Teasing

In a flash, three or five days had passed, and Changsheng Temple was still the same as before. Even with Zhang Chu's return, there was no change.

The apprentices who were practicing martial arts in the temple seemed to have forgotten that the founder of Changsheng Temple had returned at all, and they were still concentrating on practicing martial arts.

The three outer disciples, Chongli, Zhongxin and Chongming, were currently re-cultivating the martial art of immortality and had no intention of going out at all.

What could be more important than their journey to immortality?

Zhang Chu is not idle either. Coming to the world of Journey to the West, where the rules are more stringent, he needs to adapt.

Whether it is the laws that you have comprehended before or your own cultivation, you need to adapt to them.

There seemed to be some new changes in the more than twenty laws that had been comprehended in the world of Devouring the Stars after arriving in the world of Journey to the West.

It turned out to be obscure again.

Zhang Chu knew clearly that this was due to the differences in the world and the depth of the laws.

So, when Zhang Chu came to the world of Journey to the West, he immediately began to comprehend the laws again.

With the blessing of gold, the speed of comprehension is not slow, but what if one wants to reach the level of swallowing the world?
It is not something that can be done in a short period of time.

What's more, the laws in the world of Journey to the West are very strict. Even if one has a thorough understanding of the laws, it is impossible to do anything to reverse time and space.

Just the enormous force of cause and effect was not enough for Zhang Chu to withstand.

Unless one reaches the state of being unaffected by cause and effect, that is, the state of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian, it is possible to reverse time and space.

When one’s strength reaches that level, cause and effect are no longer important.

Just like Tongtian Jiaozhu in the world of Fengshen, the disciples of Jiejiao either died, were put on the list, or were forcibly transferred to the Western Religion.

Under the red eyes, he decided to overturn the chessboard and start over, that is, to re-refine the earth, wind, water, and fire and start the world again.

If it weren't for the great ancestor Hongjun who personally stepped in to stop it, the timeline of the Fengshen World would have been rewritten.

As Zhang Chu began to comprehend the laws of nature again, gradually, his obscure magic power returned to normal.

"A guest is coming!"

Zhang Chu, who was practicing, seemed to feel something suddenly. He opened his eyes directly, as if he had penetrated the wall and looked towards the outside world.

"Fellow,"

Zhang Chu had just opened the door when a figure came into the room. "What do you think?"

The person who came was Taibai Jinxing.

"I have already considered it,"

After Zhang Chu asked Taibai Jinxing to sit down, he said directly, "It's not impossible to go to the Heavenly Palace to serve as an official!"

"I just don't know how the Great Heavenly Venerable Garlic will arrange this poor Taoist!"

He, Zhang Chu, is not a good man, nor is he a pure and inactive person, but a real killer.

If he were merely asked to go to heaven and serve as a noble immortal official, that would not be what he wanted.

"Oh?"

Taibai Jinxing looked at Zhang Chu deeply and asked, "Then I wonder what you want to do?"

"I am practicing the method of killing!"

Zhang Chu glanced at Taibai Jinxing and said, "I have also heard that the four continents are not friendly places!"

"There are also many members of the tribe who are in a precarious situation and in dire straits."

"Since I am going to serve in the Heavenly Court, I must naturally contribute to my people!"

"It's time to punish those evil demons who committed heinous crimes!"

"It can not only save our people from danger, but also show the majesty of Heaven!"

"You have such aspirations, my friend,"

After Taibai Jinxing heard Zhang Chu's words, a look of surprise flashed across his face, "Of course it's great!"

"I think the Great Celestial Venerable is also extremely pleased!"

"But, fellow Taoist, do you know that those demons who can commit evil in the lower world and commit heinous crimes are not easy to deal with!"

"There are many people with great magical powers, and some of them have great backgrounds!"

"If one thing is wrong, you may even die!"

"Hahaha~"

Zhang Chu also chuckled, "Following the rules makes you a mortal, going against the rules makes you an immortal, it's just a matter of turning it upside down in the middle!"

"To become an immortal is to go against the will of heaven!"

"If I avoid difficulties as soon as they come my way, then what is the point of me practicing Taoism and becoming an immortal?"

After hearing this, Taibai Jinxing was silent for a moment, then looked at Zhang Chu deeply, "Daoyou, the Great Celestial Venerable will not let you down!"

"Please~"

Since Zhang Chu was willing to go to heaven to serve as an official, Taibai Jinxing took Zhang Chu directly to heaven.

Looking at the auspicious clouds under Taibai Jinxing's feet, Zhang Chu felt a little embarrassed.

However, he did not know how to ride on clouds. When his cultivation was at a low level, he only knew how to fly. After he became a Golden Immortal, he only knew how to move through space.

However, the laws in this world are strictly prohibited, and breaking through space is somewhat taboo.

However, this did not pose a problem for Zhang Chu, as the Frost Blade Sword appeared directly under Zhang Chu's feet.

There is no problem in flying with the sword.

"What a sword!"

When Taibai Jinxing saw the Frost Blade Sword at Zhang Chu's feet, he subconsciously exclaimed in admiration.

He also understood why Zhang Chu talked about the way of killing that he practiced.

Although the Frost Blade Sword looks inconspicuous, Taibai Jinxing can feel the murderous aura emanating from the sword.

It was an aura that carried a hint of the origin of killing.

It is definitely a peerless evil sword. Even though it cannot compare to the innate killing treasure, it can also be regarded as an acquired killing treasure.

It seems that the Heavenly Court is about to welcome another god of war-like existence.

Riding on the clouds and mist, it seemed that he was moving slowly, but in fact he was extremely fast. In almost an instant, he had arrived at the gateway to the heaven, the South Gate of Heaven.

"Meet Venus!"

The Heavenly King guarding the South Heaven Gate came forward to greet Taibai Jinxing when he saw him, then looked at Zhang Chu in confusion, "Who is this?"

As the commander stationed at the South Gate of Heaven, he naturally has the responsibility to check the nature of all living beings entering and leaving the South Gate of Heaven.

Just like the plot in Nezha’s mind, the Dragon King of the East Sea went to the Heavenly Palace to file a complaint and still had to be interrogated by the guards of the Heavenly Gate.

He even had to wait for the report from the Heavenly Gate Guardian before he could meet the Jade Emperor.

"He is a Taoist priest of immortality,"

Taibai Jinxing explained and took out a token in his hand, "I am invited to heaven in the name of your majesty!"

After carefully checking the seal, the Nantianmen guard bowed slightly to Zhang Chu and said, "It's my duty. I hope you can forgive me, Taoist Priest!"

"You are too polite, my king!"

Zhang Chu also bowed slightly.

When you go to a place, you naturally have to abide by the rules of that place, especially in a powerful world like Journey to the West.

Moreover, Heaven is still the most powerful force in the world of Journey to the West.

Taibai Jinxing put away the seal and took Zhang Chu directly in through the South Gate of Heaven.

As soon as he entered the South Heaven Gate, Zhang Chu felt an extremely strong fairy spirit rushing towards him.

The spiritual energy here is extremely pure. For those low-level cultivators, if they can practice here, they will definitely make rapid progress.

Of course, the prerequisite is that the low-level cultivator can withstand the infusion of immortal spirit energy.

Otherwise, if a stream of immortal spirit energy entered their bodies, those low-level cultivators would explode and die.

However, this immortal spirit is not so precious to Zhang Chu.

Even though the immortal spirit in the Heavenly Palace was extremely rich and even of extremely high quality, it was still not as good as the cosmic energy in the Devouring Starry Sky World, which was very close to chaos. Even though the Devouring Starry Sky World was only composed of a dozen laws, the energy of the newly opened universe was also slightly higher than the immortal spirit in the Heavenly Palace.

When they arrived at the Heavenly Palace, they were no longer so anxious. Taibai Jinxing walked along the way while introducing the situation in the Heavenly Palace to Zhang Chu.

Which celestial official’s residence is this, which star god’s temple is that.

With Zhang Chu's memory, he had almost remembered it after just one introduction.

Looking at the pavilions and towers in front of him, Zhang Chu couldn't help but sigh at the wealth and grandeur of the Heavenly Palace.

The bricks and stones used to build the mansion are basically top-quality immortal materials. If they were placed in the lower realm, even cultivators in the Tribulation Crossing stage would treasure them very much.

If there is a master treasure refiner, it is not impossible to refine these immortal materials into immortal artifacts.

Soon, they arrived in front of the palace where the Great Celestial Lord, also known as the Jade Emperor, resided.

After the notification, Taibai Jinxing took Zhang Chu in.

"Greetings to Your Majesty!"

Taibai Jinxing bowed to the Jade Emperor and said, "This fellow Taoist is fellow Taoist Changsheng!"

"I am Changsheng, a small Taoist from the lower world. I am honored to meet the Great Celestial Lord!"

Zhang Chu also bowed and said.

Now that he has not officially taken office in the Heavenly Court, there is naturally no need to address him as His Majesty.

The Jade Emperor waved his hand slightly, and two chairs appeared behind Zhang Chu and Taibai Jinxing, "Sit down!"

When Zhang Chu came in, the Great Heavenly Venerable was looking at Zhang Chu.

He is now completely certain that Zhang Chu has survived the three disasters, and he can feel the murderous intent to destroy everything from Zhang Chu.

That’s right, it was the murderous intent that could only be condensed after slaughtering billions of lives.

The Taoist of immortality in front of him was definitely not the kind of Taoist who practiced pure cultivation, but a killer.

While the Jade Emperor was looking at Zhang Chu, Zhang Chu was also secretly looking at the Jade Emperor.

He could feel the deep and hellish power of the Jade Emperor.

Compared with the Jade Emperor in front of him, Zhang Chu's strength is basically the difference between a small river and the sea.

Therefore, Zhang Chu was still quite respectful.

While Zhang Chu was secretly looking at the Jade Emperor, Taibai Jinxing had already told the Jade Emperor about Zhang Chu's thoughts.

"You want to be a demon who destroys the lower world?"

After hearing Taibai Jinxing's words, the Jade Emperor also looked at Zhang Chu with interest.

He really didn't expect that Zhang Chu, a newly promoted Golden Immortal, would have such a strong murderous nature.

Even if we know that those demons are backed by powerful beings, we are still willing to wipe them out.

"Exactly!"

Zhang Chu nodded solemnly and raised the banner directly, "As a human, I am

"But from my point of view, the demons in the lower world feed on the human race!"

"Naturally, I was moved!"

"good!"

The Jade Emperor thought for a moment and nodded slightly, "Then you can be a demon-slaying general!"

Zhang Chu’s idea is also a good thing for the Jade Emperor.

Those monsters down there are really too outrageous, and it's time to take care of them.

It’s a good opportunity to take a look at Zhang Chu’s background.

When fighting with others, one must display his supernatural powers. With the knowledge of the Jade Emperor, he can naturally see through Zhang Chu's background.

A Golden Immortal, and one who has survived the three disasters, cannot appear out of thin air.

"I obey your Majesty's orders!"

Zhang Chu immediately changed his words.

"Too white,"

The Jade Emperor also set his eyes on Taibai Jinxian, "Take General Changsheng with you to make arrangements!"

"Mansion, Heavenly Soldiers!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Taibai Jinxing stood up.

Zhang Chu also bowed and followed Taibai Jinxing out of the palace where the Great Heavenly Venerable was.

Not long after, they arrived at an empty mansion, "Daoyou, this is the mansion you will live in from now on!"

As soon as the voice fell, the blank plaque above the mansion changed directly, and the Demon-Subduing General's Mansion appeared on the plaque.

He took Zhang Chu in and introduced the situation in the mansion to Zhang Chu.

"Meet the General,"

As soon as I entered the mansion, some fairies came to pay me a visit!

"Everyone get up!"

Zhang Chu nodded slightly. The cultivation levels of these fairies were not that strong. They were considered as servants in the Demon-Subduing General’s Mansion.

After the mansion was arranged, Taibai Jinxing took Zhang Chu to the barracks where the heavenly soldiers were.

"Fellow,"

Taibai Jinxing introduced as he walked, "Are you planning to accept some new celestial soldiers or just accept the old ones?"

"Why?"

Zhang Chu looked at Taibai Jinxing in confusion.

Are there new and old heavenly soldiers?
"Old celestial soldiers are actually cultivators who have ascended for a long time. They are the celestial soldiers who have experienced great battles and are considered the elite among them."

"The new heavenly soldiers are the monks who have just ascended and are included in the new recruit camp. Basically, they have never experienced a major battle!"

"Oh!"

Zhang Chu nodded, but remembered a joke he heard when he was in the secular world.

When you were born, a miracle occurred in the sky. You could learn literature at the age of three and martial arts at the age of seven. You met a Taoist priest who took you in as his disciple because of your extraordinary talent.

You have become the most talented disciple in the sect, invincible among those of your level, and you have overwhelmed the geniuses of an era. You can be said to be dominating the world.

After going through many hardships and dangers, overcoming nine heavenly tribulations and escaping death nine times, he finally ascended to become an immortal and became a heavenly soldier in the heavenly court.

One day, you suddenly received an order that the King of Heaven would take you to destroy the demons in the lower world.

You went with the army, but unexpectedly, you encountered a ferocious and powerful existence. With one blow, your thousand years of hard work turned into flowing water, and you became a lonely ghost and were reincarnated.

"Fellow?"

Taibai Jinxing looked at Zhang Chu in a daze, "Do you want the new soldiers or the old soldiers?"

"For new soldiers, just go to the new recruit camp to choose. For veterans, you need to ask for the order of the Great Celestial Venerable!"

"Let those demon-suppressing generals give up some of their heavenly soldiers and let you manage them!"

"Let's go to the recruit camp to choose!"

Zhang Chu thought about it for a moment and decided to select some new recruits.

Veterans, especially elite veterans, all bear the marks of other forces.

If he picked it up, he would not feel safe using it, and most importantly, he might offend someone.

It’s different for new recruits, they can be trained as trusted ones.

The most important thing is that the new recruits in the recruit camp must be those without background, and those with background have already been picked away.

Besides, no matter whether they are new recruits or old soldiers, after fighting a few battles, won’t they all be elite troops?
What's more, to slay the demons, maybe the heavenly soldiers won't be needed!

How could he, a Taoist priest of immortality, be afraid of a group battle?
