Chapter 425
In a flash, Zhang Chu had already decided to use the twelve soul flags.
A living person cannot be allowed to die from holding his urine, not to mention that with the Yue Shi Mirror in his hand, the worst that can happen is that after the twelve soul flags are exposed and he is in a situation where everyone wants him to be killed, he can just run away.
"Cut~"
A murderous sword energy that covered the sky and the sun slashed directly forward as Zhang Chu swung his sword.
Unfortunately, the sword energy had no effect at all. Just as it reached the mouth of the Yin-Yang Qi bottle, the Yin-Yang Qi plan in black and white appeared.
Once the yin and yang energies were mixed, the murderous sword energy was instantly shattered.
I have to say that magic weapons, especially the famous ones, are powerful.
The sword energy that carried the power of killing was shattered so easily.
And this scene also caused those great masters in the heavens to reveal a hint of surprise in their eyes.
It had been a long time since they had seen such pure murderous aura.
This little demon-suppressing general is definitely a natural born killer.
Otherwise, how could he have comprehended the Way of Killing to such an extent?
The Jade Emperor, who had been watching the three demons playing around, finally looked annoyed. After all, it was he who personally sent Taibai Jinxing to recruit Zhang Chu.
Moreover, during this period of time, in addition to going to the Wanfa Pavilion to comprehend some skills and increase his knowledge, he basically led the heavenly soldiers to slay demons and monsters in the lower world and spread the reputation of the Heavenly Court.
If he was just collected into the Yin and Yang Qi Bottle by the golden-winged Roc and turned into pus and his soul was scattered, how could he, the Great Celestial Lord, recruit subordinates in the future?
Especially subordinates like Zhang Chu who have survived the three disasters.
Subordinates like these who have survived the three disasters are the most favorite subordinates by all major forces.
Putting aside other things, just the immortality and bright future are something that those immortals who avoided the three disasters and became golden immortals cannot compare to.
Only those cultivators who have survived the three disasters can hope to become Daluo Jinxian.
How could a potential Daluo Jinxian die in front of him like this?
What's more, the fact that Zhang Chu dared to come at this time was most likely because he felt the demonic aura rising from the South Heaven Gate and came to support.
How could such a loyal subordinate die here?
Just when Zhang Chu used the twelve soul flags to set up the Pluto formation, a giant hand that covered the sky and the sun appeared directly at the South Gate of Heaven.
The giant hand that covered the sky simply ignored the power of the Yin-Yang Qi Bottle and slapped down at the golden-winged Roc.
Just like slapping a mosquito, the three monsters from Lion Camel Ridge were slapped away.
Moreover, the confident golden-winged Roc had no power to dodge at all and was knocked down to the lower world.
"Pfft~"
"Pfft~"
"Pfft~"
The three demons immediately spat out a mouthful of blood, then looked at each other, and saw bitterness in each other's eyes: This is not the script!
None of them expected that the Jade Emperor would actually take action!
This time, for them, it was really a case of losing the rice while trying to steal the chicken.
However, none of the three demons mentioned the intention of revenge. The reason they were able to survive this time was because of the face of Buddhism.
If not for this, the three of them would have already reported to Huangquan by now.
The three demons were well aware of the Jade Emperor's strength.
Even though they have the Yin-Yang Qi Bottles in their hands, they really make the Jade Emperor angry. Not to mention that they have the Yin-Yang Qi Bottles in their hands, even if the Buddha himself comes forward, they will die!
The Jade Emperor is the Supreme Being in the Three Realms!
As long as they have not lost this identity, no matter how powerful the Buddhist sect is or how great the Buddha's magical powers are, they dare not easily disobey the will of the Jade Emperor.
The three realms share common respect, but this is never just talk.
"My king, what's going on?"
The three demon kings of Lion Camel Ridge had just sorted out their own breath when a little demon came.
"With our help,"
The Blue Lion King grinned, "What can Heaven do?"
"That's right,"
The White Elephant King also looked at his elder brother with admiration, "Great King, you took action and swallowed up 100,000 heavenly soldiers in one gulp!"
"Humph~"
As for the three kings, the golden-winged Roc, it just snorted coldly and disappeared in front of the many little demons.
These little demons were obviously well aware of the behavior of the three kings and were no longer surprised.
"Children,"
Looking at the departing figure of the Golden Winged Peng Bird, the Blue Lion King and the White Elephant King were not surprised. Instead, they instructed their minions, "Hold a celebration party today!"
"The three kings are invincible!"
Many little demons and minions immediately shouted and hurried to prepare various things needed for the banquet.
And the news that the three demon kings of Lion Camel Ridge attacked the South Gate of Heaven and swallowed up 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals in one gulp also spread among the demon clan after this banquet.
Of course, this is all a story for later.
At the South Heaven Gate, Zhang Chu looked at the three demon kings who were knocked down from heaven by the giant hand that covered the sky, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.
The Heavenly Palace is worthy of being the place where the supreme being of the Three Realms exists. The power of the giant hand that covers the sky is so strong that even if Zhang Chu took out the twelve soul flags and set up the Hades formation, he would not be able to withstand it.
This is the real great master.
"Meet the General!"
At this moment, Zhang Chu's three thousand men finally arrived.
"Return to camp immediately!"
Zhang Chu glanced at the three thousand heavenly soldiers, his face livid, "Train them strictly!"
Obviously, he was quite dissatisfied with the outcome of this battle.
It was unbearable for Zhang Chu to have his life and death almost controlled by the three demon kings.
"Yes, General!"
The three thousand heavenly soldiers looked at Zhang Chu's extremely ugly expression and did not dare to say anything extra. They just returned to the camp directly.
Zhang Chu looked at the somewhat damaged Nantianmen, moved his body, and headed towards the Demon-Subduing General's Mansion.
There was no intention of stopping at all.
What could he do by staying here? He was no match for the three demons from Lion Camel Ridge!
So many heavenly soldiers were killed or injured, and they were all immortals from the human race. Staying here would only add to the sadness!
Not long after, Zhang Chu had returned to the Demon-Subduing General's Mansion.
His immortal consciousness had already seen that his indestructible golden body had many cracks on its bones after fighting with the White Elephant King and the Golden-winged Roc King.
After achieving the Golden Immortal status, Zhang Chu thought he could finally relax for a while. However, the three monsters from Lion Camel Ridge were able to beat him into this state.
How can he relax?
The road to becoming an invincible Golden Immortal is still very long!
Sitting cross-legged in the General Subduing Demons' Mansion, he quickly practiced the Taoist Scripture of Immortality, which had integrated the Nine Secrets of the Heaven-Covering Method.
Soon, the immortal energy in the heavenly palace quickly gathered towards Zhang Chu, and his injuries were recovering rapidly.
However, the cracks on the bones are not so easy to heal.
The golden element that was integrated with the primordial spirit also emitted bursts of light, constantly covering the crack.
As the gold element was consumed, the cracks on Zhang Chu's bones finally recovered. While Zhang Chu was recovering in seclusion, Taibai Jinxing was standing in the Jade Emperor's palace, reporting on the matter.
"How is Changsheng?"
The Jade Emperor asked Taibai Jinxing in a calm tone.
"His Majesty,"
Taibai Jinxing glanced at the Jade Emperor secretly. He could sense the anger beneath his own majesty's calmness, and quickly said, "General Changsheng is in seclusion now!"
"He's recovering from his injuries!"
"Then let the power of the stars in the sky gather at the Demon Subduing General's Mansion."
The Jade Emperor said expressionlessly, "Give him some help so that he can recover from his injuries as soon as possible!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Taibai Jinxing nodded immediately, with a hint of envy in his eyes.
That is the power of the stars in the sky!
This can be considered a blessing in disguise for Zhang Chu!
"Venus,"
The Jade Emperor pondered for a moment, then said to Taibai Jinxing, "General Changsheng has achieved remarkable results in subduing demons this time. What should we reward him with?"
"This"
Taibai Jinxing hesitated a little.
If you say that Zhang Chu’s contribution is great, it’s not that great!
After all, with Zhang Chu's strength, eradicating the demons in Dongsheng Shenzhou would be like using a sledgehammer to kill a pig, a waste of talent.
If you say that Zhang Chu's contribution is small, then it is not small!
He was the first Golden Immortal to step forward when he sensed that a demon was attacking the South Heaven Gate, and he was also the one who was able to fight the three demon kings of Lion Camel Ridge to a draw.
Others may not know the origins of the three monsters from Lion Camel Ridge, but doesn’t Taibai Jinxing know it?
He was able to fight one against three and even ended up in a draw with the three monsters from Lion Camel Ridge. Needless to say, his strength is so strong.
If the golden-winged Roc had not taken out the Yin-Yang Qi Bottle at the very end, the outcome would still be unknown!
In this regard, Zhang Chu really made a great contribution.
To save the face of the Heavenly Court, and most importantly, to save the face of the Great Celestial Lord, one is willing to die for the Great Celestial Lord.
At least that's what Taibai Jinxing sees.
For such a heavenly official, it can be said that any reward is not excessive.
"His Majesty,"
Taibai Jinxing thought for a while and said, "From my perspective, Taoist Changsheng seems to be lacking in some magical skills!"
"How about the next decree?"
"How about allowing him to enter and exit the Wanfa Pavilion freely?"
"Can!"
The Jade Emperor thought for a moment and nodded, "Go and announce the decree!"
Taibai Jinxing walked out, and the Jade Emperor also looked puzzled.
When Zhang Chu was fighting with the three monsters in Lion Camel Ridge, he did not realize which lineage of great masters Zhang Chu was from.
Instead, I saw some Taoist shadows in Zhang Chu.
That’s right, it’s the shadow of the Shangqing Immortal Technique.
That refined corpse, whose combat power was comparable to that of a Golden Immortal, actually had some shadows of the Shangqing Immortal Technique. As for its combat skills, there were some shadows of the Witch Clan.
However, neither the witch clan's fighting skills nor the Shangqing immortal techniques seem to be Zhang Chu's main method of practice.
It is very likely that Zhang Chu has found his own way!
The Golden Immortal who has found his own path is truly the seed of the Daluo Golden Immortal!
A Golden Immortal who has the potential to become a Daluo Golden Immortal and a Golden Immortal who has found his own way are two completely different existences.
At this moment, Taibai Jinxing had already announced the decree. Three hundred and sixty ancient stars were looming, and the starlight above the entire heaven was rapidly converging towards the Demon-Subduing General's Mansion where Zhang Chu was.
Zhang Chu, who was recovering from his injuries, also felt the rich power of the stars that had become tangible.
As the Longevity Scripture ran rapidly, endless star power was directly swallowed into his body.
With the blessing of gold nature, the cracks on Zhang Chu's bones were actually repairing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The most important thing is that as the power of the stars was refined, Zhang Chu's extremely strong body actually had a significant improvement.
Even though he was extremely surprised, Zhang Chu had no intention of coming out. Instead, he tried his best to absorb the power of the stars.
After absorbing the power of the stars, within three to five days, Zhang Chu's injuries were completely healed, and his physical strength also increased by about 10%.
And at the moment when Zhang Chu's injuries were completely healed, the tangible star power disappeared.
The 365 ancient stars that seemed to be looming in the distance also completely disappeared.
Those great masters in the Heavenly Palace also sensed the changes in the ancient stars, but none of them had the intention of coming out to criticize.
Even though Zhang Chu was a close confidant of the Jade Emperor, he actually earned face for them by repelling the three monsters from Lion Camel Ridge.
After all, they are all great masters with supernatural powers above the heavens.
He was also extremely annoyed about the three demons from Lion Camel Ridge attacking the Heavenly Palace.
However, fearing the background of the three demons and the general trend of the Journey to the West world, they could only pretend not to see it.
However, they were still very happy to see someone from the Heavenly Court dare to take action and win the battle.
As for those immortal officials with low strength, even if they saw it, they could do nothing except envy.
That’s the ancient star!
The most important thing is that they really don’t dare to attack the three monsters of Lion Camel Ridge!
These immortal officials know the backgrounds of the three monsters from Lion Camel Ridge very well.
Perhaps they could stop the three demons from showing off their power, but if it delayed the overall development of the Journey to the West world, they would not be able to bear the consequences.
What's more, they were unwilling to get involved in the dispute between the Heavenly Court and Buddhism.
After all, in such a dispute, if one is not careful, not only will one lose the position of immortal official, but one's true spirit may also be completely destroyed, and one will never be able to be reborn.
Only a young man like Zhang Chu is so ignorant and fearless that he doesn't care about the Buddhist plan at all.
Of course, perhaps a young man like Zhang Chu had no idea about the Buddhist sect’s plan, which was why he dared to take action and offend the Buddhist sect.
The power of the stars dissipated, Zhang Chu's injuries were completely healed, and Taibai Jinxing also came to the General Fumo's Mansion where Zhang Chu was.
Zhang Chu felt it when Taibai Jinxing just arrived at the General Fumo’s Mansion.
He immediately stopped absorbing spiritual energy and came out of seclusion.
“I’ve seen Venus!”
Zhang Chu looked a little surprised, and he bowed to Taibai Jinxing and said, "Jinxing, what do you want to say?"
"You have personally come to my small residence of the Demon Subduing General?"
