Chapter 422 A corner

When Zhang Chu returned from the barracks, he had an additional three thousand heavenly soldiers under his command, most of whom were immortals who had just ascended to heaven.

Three thousand heavenly soldiers, if they were in other weaker worlds, they would be enough to suppress the world for eternity. However, in the world of Journey to the West, these three thousand heavenly soldiers are just food for those powerful demons.

After the heavenly soldiers were selected, they were directly given the standard weapons and armor of the Heavenly Court and were put into strict training. As for Zhang Chu himself, he returned to the Demon-Subduing General's mansion.

Now is not the time to conquer the demons. Even if we want to conquer the demons, we need the order of the Great Celestial Lord.

"Venus,"

Sitting in the general's mansion, Zhang Chu looked at Taibai Jinxing in front of him, "I wonder where the skills collected in the heaven are!"

"I just want to broaden my horizons!"

You may not need to practice martial arts or something, but collecting more of them, if you can integrate them into the Taoist scriptures of longevity, that would be a good thing.

The heaven in the world of Journey to the West also has a very profound heritage.

Apart from anything else, the Jade Emperor's cultivation alone is enough to make Zhang Chu look up to him.

"Gong method?"

Taibai Jinxing glanced at Zhang Chu and said, "If you want to see the skills collected in the Heavenly Palace, there are two ways."

"First, if you have made great contributions, you can naturally go to the Wanfa Pavilion to browse the skills!"

"Second, with the permission of the Great Celestial Venerable, you can also go to the Wanfa Pavilion in the Heavenly Palace to comprehend the techniques!"

"Then let's ask the Great Lord for his will!"

Zhang Chu pondered for a moment, "I don't need any advanced skills, I just want to broaden my horizons!"

"That's fine!"

After hearing what Zhang Chu said, Taibai Jinxing also nodded.

I don't seek advanced skills, I just want to broaden my horizons. The secret techniques and skills in the Heavenly Palace's Wanfa Pavilion are simply vast.

"Then I'll trouble Venus!"

How could Zhang Chu, a mere demon-slaying general, possibly meet the Jade Emperor at will?

Only close ministers like Taibai Jinxing can seek an audience with the Great Celestial Lord at any time.

"What's the trouble!"

Taibai Jinxing smiled.

After the two exchanged greetings for a while at the General Fumo's Mansion, Taibai Jinxing said goodbye.

In the following time, Zhang Chu would either go to the military camp to train heavenly soldiers, or stay in the mansion to comprehend the laws and improve his own Taoism.

It was not until half a month later that Venus came again.

"Venus,"

Zhang Chu welcomed Taibai Jinxing in, "Any news?"

"The Great Lord has already agreed!"

Taibai Jinxing nodded, took out a warrant and handed it to Zhang Chu, "You can go directly to Wanfa Pavilion with the warrant!"

"You can browse the skills and secret arts below the sixth level at will, and you can choose three of each skill and secret art above the sixth level!"

"Thank you Venus!"

Zhang Chu took the warrant and thanked him, "I wonder if Jin Xing could introduce the situation of Wanfa Pavilion?"

"You can do anything!"

Taibai Jinxing nodded, "The Wanfa Pavilion is divided into nine floors!"

“Below the sixth level, they are basically all techniques that can be practiced to levels below the Golden Immortal, or secret techniques that can be practiced below the Golden Immortal.”

"Above the sixth floor, the collection is the Golden Immortal and the secret techniques above the Golden Immortal!"

"After all, only when you have cultivated to the Golden Immortal realm can you be considered to have truly embarked on the path of cultivation."

"Only after becoming a Golden Immortal can one be qualified to comprehend the Great Dao!"

After hearing Taibai Jinxing say this, Zhang Chu also nodded slightly.

Building a foundation is the threshold of longevity in cultivation, becoming an immortal is the path to longevity, and only when one achieves the status of a golden immortal can one be considered qualified to comprehend the great way.

To achieve the Golden Immortal, one must be immortal. Given plenty of time, one can comprehend the great Dao. When the opportunity arises, one may be able to achieve the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal.

According to Zhang Chu's current level of Taoism, the more laws he comprehends and the more thoroughly he comprehends them, the more beneficial it will be for him to achieve the Daluo Jinxian in the future.

After receiving the warrant, Zhang Chu also hosted a banquet for Taibai Jinxing.

In the heavenly palace, the only person he could talk to was Taibai Jinxing.

Demon-slaying general? Perhaps in the lower world, he is an enviable celestial official, or even a position that some immortals cannot obtain in their lifetime.

In the heavenly court, the General Subduing Demons is a celestial official who cannot be any smaller, only slightly stronger than Bi Ma Wen.

Of course, Taibai Jinxing was willing to accept Zhang Chu’s invitation to the banquet because Zhang Chu was strong enough.

The Demon-Subduing General was not Zhang Chu’s end at all, but the starting point.

As long as Zhang Chu achieves some military merits, his official position will be promoted soon.

No matter what, Zhang Chu is also a golden immortal who has survived the three disasters and is very powerful.

The position of General Subduing Demons is not worthy of Zhang Chu's strength.

After Taibai had a few drinks in Zhang Chu's general's mansion, he said goodbye.

The immortal wine is very good, and the spiritual energy in it is also extremely abundant. In the lower world, it can even be called a treasure from heaven and earth.

However, in Heaven, in the eyes of these powerful people in Heaven, it is just some entertainment.

The most important thing is that no matter how much immortal wine they drink, strong people like Taibai Jinxing and Zhang Chu will not get drunk.

Looking at Taibai Jinxing's departing figure, Zhang Chu's slightly dazed eyes regained clarity.

It's not the wine that makes people drunk, but people make themselves drunk. Since he started practicing, he didn't know how long it had been since he had been so relaxed.

As the drunkenness wore off, Zhang Chu also went to the Tianting Wanfa Pavilion with the order.

When he arrived at the Wanfa Pavilion, Zhang Chu directly showed the warrant from the Great Heavenly Venerable. The person guarding the Wanfa Pavilion checked the warrant and let Zhang Chu in directly.

"There's a different world!"

After entering the Wanfa Pavilion, Zhang Chu looked at the vast number of skills and secret techniques in front of him and couldn't help but sigh.

From the outside, the Wanfa Pavilion has only nine floors. Only when you go inside, you will realize how huge it is.

Each layer is a small world, and every ray of starlight in the small world is actually a technique or a secret art.

He entered the first level, and the numerous stars in the sky represented a series of skills and secret techniques.

The extremely powerful power of immortal consciousness extended directly towards the small world in front of him.

The stars in the sky immediately began to shine, transforming into streams of starlight that merged into Zhang Chu's sea of ​​consciousness.

Formations, techniques, spells, and combat skills
More than billions!
All of a sudden, countless figures appeared in Zhang Chu's sea of ​​consciousness and began to practice.

They are all figures teaching exercises.

In Zhang Chu's sea of ​​consciousness, more than thirty golden essences appeared, and more than ten strands of golden essence appeared.
The little people who were practicing the exercises began to absorb nutrients. Most of the first-level exercises were exercises that could help people become immortals. They might be very precious in the lower world, but in heaven, they were no different from sand.

The idea was so simple that Zhang Chu understood it all after practicing those skills, secret techniques and formations just once.

The Golden Immortal's cultivation is not just talk.

In just three to five days, Zhang Chu had suppressed the reaction in his sea of ​​consciousness and headed directly for the second floor.

The skills, secret techniques, and formations on the second floor are already extremely precious, and most of them are prepared for the immortals at a certain level.

In a daze, almost a year had passed, and Zhang Chu had already stayed in the Wanfa Pavilion for more than two hundred days.

He had already looked through everything on the first six floors of the Wanfa Pavilion and memorized it.

After he has comprehended it all and integrated it into the Taoist Scripture of Immortality, it will surely make his foundation even stronger.

At this point, Zhang Chu also walked out of Wanfa Pavilion. There was no need to stay any longer.

As for the places above the sixth floor, he could not go there unless he had made great contributions or his rank as an immortal official was raised a little, only then could he enter.

But what made Zhang Chu a little regretful was that he did not find the kind of formation that could allow him to fight across the border.

Zhang Chu had great expectations for the Twelve Soul Honoring Banners.

If Zhang Chu could find a formation in the Wanfa Pavilion that was more suitable for the Twelve Soul Banners, his strength would definitely be able to reach a higher level.

The Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation that he had been thinking about was not in the first six levels.

However, he could also confirm that there was some connection between the world of Journey to the West and the world of Conferred Gods, or the prehistoric world.

In the first six levels, Zhang Chu also saw some information about the Witch Clan, which also contained several fighting skills or low-level techniques related to the Witch Clan.

Based on this point alone, it is very likely that there is a large formation that protects the witch clan in this world.

However, what Zhang Chu was not sure about was whether there was the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation in the Wanfa Pavilion.

After returning to the General Fumo's Mansion, Zhang Chu sat down cross-legged and began to carefully think about some of the gains he had made in the Wanfa Pavilion.

Formation, he actually found a peerless formation. Even though it was incomplete, it was still a part of the peerless formation, the Zhoutian Star Formation.

In the Wanfa Pavilion, Zhang Chu found a component formation of the Zhoutian Star Array, the Big Dipper Array.

If one wants to set up such a large formation, one needs to use star god gold as the main material and refine seven star god flags before one can set it up.

As for unleashing the strongest power, it requires seven practitioners who respond to the Big Dipper or seven star gods holding the Star Banners to unleash the greatest power.

But where did Zhang Chu get the Star God?
Sitting cross-legged in General Fumo's mansion, Zhang Chu pondered secretly.

The Star God Gold might be hard to obtain in the world of Journey to the West. After all, the laws of this world strictly prohibit it, and it is impossible for Zhang Chu to use the star practice method to refine the Star God Flag.

However, it is different in the world of Devouring the Stars. With so many stars, as long as there are enough stars to be smelted, it may be possible to smelt some star gold.

As for those star gods, Zhang Chu planned to refer to the refining method of the Zunhun Banner.

If he can’t find the Star God, can’t he sacrifice the main souls of the seven star banners?
Zhang Chu silently took note of this matter and was no longer in a hurry.

The complete Zhoutian Star Array may exist in the Heavenly Palace, but that thing is not something Zhang Chu can covet.

He also saw in a miscellaneous note in the Wanfa Pavilion that a complete Zhoutian star formation requires 365 main flags and 365 ancient Zhoutian stars, and 47,000 star flags to reflect those ordinary stars.

Adding up, that’s nearly 40,000 Star Banners, and the amount of Star Divine Gold required is even more massive.

Even though the resources in the world of Journey to the West are abundant and direct, the Heavenly Palace only has one set of protective formations, and can only refine one set.

If Zhang Chu wanted to refine the Golden 40,000 Star Banner in the world of Devouring Star, it is very likely that even if he melted all the stars in the entire Devouring Star, it would not be enough.

Most stars, even if they are smelted, cannot produce any star gold. Those stars with divine will may be able to smelt out a penny of star gold.

Not to mention the main star flags, just those second-level star flags, each one requires nearly a hundred kilograms of star god gold to be refined.

Even if one star can be smelted into one penny of star god gold, then to refine a star flag, at least more than ten thousand stars with divine will need to be smelted.

Just think about it and you will know how difficult it is to refine the Star Banner.

Among tens of thousands of stars, it is possible that there is not even one star with divine will.

This is equivalent to melting billions of stars to melt out a star flag.

The star divine gold required for the Star Main Banner is a hundred times that of an ordinary star banner.

So, what if Zhang Chu obtained the Zhoutian Star Array?

If you want to replicate it, even if you melt the entire Devouring Star World, it may not be enough.

What's more, the main material of the Star Banner is Star God Gold, and although the auxiliary materials are scarce, they are also extremely precious.

"Ah~"

Thinking of this, Zhang Chu shook his head slightly, "I'm still poor!"

"It's time to go check out the military camp!"

After resting today in the Demon-Subduing General's Mansion, Zhang Chu walked out of the mansion and headed towards the camp where he and the three thousand heavenly soldiers were stationed.

With more than 200 days of rigorous training, those heavenly soldiers should be able to perform well.

Even if they can't be called elite soldiers, they can at least hold their own.

Not long after, Zhang Chu arrived at the Heavenly Soldiers' camp. Three thousand Heavenly Soldiers were practicing formations, the Demon-Subduing Formation, which was considered the mainstream formation of the Heavenly Soldiers.

Is it powerful?
According to Zhang Chu's opinion, it was just okay and could not be considered a top-notch formation.

However, as the strength of the heavenly soldiers increases, the power of the formation will also continue to increase.

At least when facing those powerful monsters, we have some resistance.

"Meet the General!"

As soon as Zhang Chu appeared in the camp, a deputy general who was in charge of the training hurried to Zhang Chu.

Although he was called a deputy general, he was actually just a manager temporarily appointed by Zhang Chu.

There is no name on the Heavenly Official Register in Heaven.

Only after making meritorious contributions can one become a true celestial official, that is, have the rank of celestial official.

Now the deputy general is essentially still just a heavenly soldier.

"How's the training going?"

After Zhang Chu looked towards the camp, he asked the deputy general who was approaching.

"General, after a year, I am considered proficient. However, it is hard to say if I will be able to defeat the enemy."

After finishing speaking, the deputy general looked at Zhang Chu in front of him with some trepidation.

Even though these heavenly soldiers were regarded as ancestors of their sects before they became immortals, they were just small shrimps in the heavenly court.

Their experience in fighting is basically useless if they really face those powerful monsters.

No matter how gorgeous or beautiful your magic is, it is useless if it cannot harm those monsters!

It has been a year in heaven, and they are quite familiar with the living environment of the heavenly soldiers.

Who knows, one day, you might become food for those demons.

Only by following those extremely powerful generals will they have a higher chance of survival.

However, could this commander who has not shown up for more than a year be such an extremely powerful general?
