After repelling the Buddhist soldiers and cleaning up the battlefield, the Monkey King held a feast to celebrate his victory.
In addition to the tribes of Huaguo Mountain, all the demon kings of the seventy-two caves came to the banquet with congratulatory gifts. Some big demons from nearby Aolai Kingdom and the East China Sea Islands also came here to pay homage to the Monkey King.
The impact of this battle was very great, and it has spread all over the world, causing uproar in all parties.
Buddhism is one of the most powerful forces in the world of immortals. It has many masters. Many demon kings and demons who were rampant for a while were suppressed by Buddhist monks and turned into protectors. What's worse, they were directly reduced to mounts.
The power of Buddhism makes countless monsters fearful, like an insurmountable mountain pressing on the monsters.
But this time, Buddhism failed and was thwarted by a new demon king!
No matter how many inside stories and games there are, in the eyes of many monsters, this is a great victory for the monster clan. The Monkey King is truly a hero of the world and an outstanding representative of the new generation of monster clan!
Ten thousand demons came to court, six kings joined in the ceremony, and there was a feast for ten days.
"My wise brother is so brave and invincible that he defeated the Buddhist army and promoted the prestige of our demon clan. My foolish brother admires me."
The Peng Demon King was a tall man with wings on his back and a black bird's beak on his face. He raised his bronze wine bottle and came forward with a smile on his face and toasted the Monkey King.
"Seventh brother, you really impressed me this time."
"Hahahaha, it's so satisfying to see those bald donkeys deflated. Seventh Brother, I'd like to toast you."
The Bull Demon King, the Macaque King, the Lion and Camel King, and the Tamarin King all came forward to toast, and praised Wukong lavishly, full of praise, as if they were proud of their brothers for defeating the Buddhist army.
For those who don’t know, I really think they are generous and righteous.
The stars held the moon, and he was blown away by several brothers, and Wukong couldn't help but feel a little elated.
Although he also knew that these brothers were not reliable, he was still very happy to be able to defeat Buddhism this time, and it was worth celebrating.
He raised the wine bottle, looked around, and said loudly:
"Brothers, don't be polite, come on, drink, and you'll be drunk until you're done!"
No matter what, this time we successfully bought Huaguoshan five hundred years, which is a victory.
What happened next will be discussed later. Five hundred years later, maybe the master has already left seclusion.
"Come on, drink!"
"After drinking this drink, I won't come home until I'm drunk tonight!"
The Bull Demon King, the Peng Demon King, the Seventy-two Cave Demon King, and many big and small demons who came here came to propose a toast to the Monkey King. Everyone ate meat, drank from big bowls, sang and danced, and the atmosphere was lively.
Nana was regarded as the most distinguished guest by Huaguo Mountain. She sat high on the throne, picked up a blue-striped fairy peach, took a bite, looked at the Bull Demon King and other demon kings, and said calmly:
"Ox Demon King, Lion Camel King, Peng Demon King, what's going on with you guys? The Buddhist army is pressing down on the border. Why don't you bring people over to support us?"
The scene fell silent, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little subtle.
Many people knew that the seven kings were sworn brothers, but when Huaguo Mountain was attacked, only the White Dragon King came to support, and the rest could not even see a shadow.
The joy on Wukong's face faded by three points, he put down the wine bottle and looked at his sworn brothers.
Although he didn't say anything, there was a bit of scrutiny in his eyes.
The original promise that we will share blessings and share hardships is just a fart, right?
Some hozens also showed dissatisfied expressions.
Seeing the awkward atmosphere, the Bull Demon King scratched his head, smiled honestly, and said:
"You can't blame me. Jilei Mountain is too far away from here. It was already a week after I heard the news."
"Second sister, you have to believe me. As soon as I heard that the bald donkeys from Buddhism sent troops to attack Huaguo Mountain, I immediately flew from Luzhou, Beiju, but it was still a step too late. Fortunately, the second sister and the seventh brother were extraordinarily brave.
After repelling the enemy and being safe, I breathed a sigh of relief."
Demon King Peng looked worried for his brother, with a bit of shame on his face, as if he felt a little guilty for not being able to help.
This kind of acting skills, if you don't want to be a movie star, you will be underestimating your talent.
"Second sister, I have always been the most loyal person. Seventh brother is of my clan. If the Buddhists invade next time, you must notify me in advance."
The Macaque King patted his chest, looking extremely righteous.
"I'm telling you, can you leave in advance?"
Nana felt contempt in her heart, but she smiled and said nothing.
Wukong smiled and did not go into details. He ignored the matter and exchanged cups with several demon kings, chatting and laughing happily.
It's enough to know some things in your mind, but to tell them, friends don't have to do anything. Anyway, except for the second sister, he has never counted on these plastic brothers, so naturally he can't be disappointed.
Drink, Master said it well, it is rare for a person to be confused, except for life and death, it is a trivial matter.
If there is wine today, we will get drunk today, then we will play music and then dance.
The atmosphere in the Water Curtain Cave became lively again, with people drinking, singing and dancing, chatting, and the cups and plates were in a mess.
While we were drinking and having a party, someone came to report:
"Your Majesty, two one-horned ghost kings came outside the door and said they had a great gift for them."
Wukong didn't take it seriously. There were many demons and ghosts coming to cheer these days and join in the fun. He waved his hand and said casually:
"Let them in."
The two one-horned ghost kings arranged their clothes, ran into the cave, and bowed down.
"Liu Qing and Liu Huang of Beimang Mountain, meet the Monkey King!"
Ghost fairy?
Nana raised her eyebrows, a little surprised.
Heaven, earth, humans, gods and ghosts are collectively known as the Five Immortals Avenue. However, the way of ghosts and immortals is hardly spread between heaven and human realms. The underworld is where ghosts and immortals gather, and the Ten Palaces of Yama are the best among them.
As the saying goes, it is difficult for a ghost spirit to become a saint.
In the early days of the prehistoric times, monks who had completely lost their bodies would be basically useless unless they could seize their bodies, and they could not escape the end of their souls.
It wasn't until Houtu transformed reincarnation and created the ghost-immortal system that ghost cultivators had a place in the prehistoric world.
There are basically no ghost cultivators in the earthly immortal world, and there are only a few special places where ghosts and immortals are entrenched. Dongsheng Shenzhou Aolai Mountain in the north of the country is one of them.
It is said that there are several Daluo Ghost Emperors in Beiman Mountain.
Wukong was also a little surprised and said: "The two ghost kings come to me, what do you want?"
The reputation of Beimang Mountain is not very good. A group of ghost cultivators do not go to the netherworld, but stay in the human world. Some ghost kings also come down from the mountain from time to time to plunder the blood and food of humans and animals, causing harm to Dongsheng Shenzhou Aolai.
It is said that when Zhang Daoling was in Longhu Mountain, Zhang Tianshi suppressed the Beimang ghosts, but he failed to achieve full success.
The one-horned ghost king Liu Qing said: "Your Majesty made a big fuss in the underworld, escaped from the hands of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, and now defeated the Buddhist army. My Lord is deeply admired. I present here an ocher yellow robe and ten altars of fine wine and immortal brew to share with your Majesty."
Congratulations."
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Huang, the one-horned ghost king, stepped forward and presented a golden emperor's robe, flowing with crystal light, five black earthen jars, and fairy brew sealed in red satin.
Wukong was a little happy. He put on the yellow robe, showing a bit of kingly majesty, and opened another can of fairy brew.
The wine in the earthen jar is light green, rippling and overflowing with bits of silver light, like stars all over the sky, and the fragrance is fragrant. Just smelling it makes people feel refreshed. It is a top-notch fairy wine.
Such a generous gift also made Wukong a little puzzled, and said:
"Did your master say anything else?"
The two one-horned ghost kings smiled and said: "The Lord said that Beiman Mountain wants to form an alliance with Huaguo Mountain to fight against Buddhism."
Wukong hesitated for a moment and said: "Who is your master, your master?"
"Beimang Ghost Emperor, Black Rakshasa!"
"..."
I seem to have heard this name somewhere.
Nana immediately gave Wukong a wink. Wukong knew what he knew, picked up the teacup, and said with a smile:
"Thank you, Master, for your generous gift. The alliance is very involved, so let me think about it carefully."
The two one-horned ghost kings were a little disappointed, bowed their hands and left.
Serving tea to see guests off, they still understand this.
Hearing the name Black Rakshasa, the Bull Demon King's face changed slightly, as if he knew something, but the other demon kings did not react and did not understand the situation.
After Beng, General Ba saw the king put on the yellow robe, full of dragon energy and the majesty of an emperor. He stepped forward and said:
"The king is very capable and became famous throughout the world in one battle. He should have a more formal name."
"It makes sense. Seventh Brother defeated the old Buddhist Golden Immortal and the Sunlight Bodhisattva, and he can become the great sage of the demon clan." Demon King Peng agreed.
Wukong perked up and said, "Then what should I be called? When I ascended to heaven, the Jade Emperor deceived me because I was young and ignorant, so Bima Wen sent me away. Now that I am famous all over the world, I should give me a resounding nickname."
."
The official position of Bi Mawen made him resentful and eager to get rid of it.
"Wuzhi Qi, the god of the Huai River, looks like an ape, and is also known as the 'Water Ape Great Sage'. Since the seventh brother is the Holy Spirit popping out of a stone, why not call him the Stone Ape Great Sage?" the Macaque King suggested.
"General, too ordinary." The Bull Demon King shook his head.
"The king is so powerful, he should be called emperor directly. Why not call him Stone Emperor." A big demon suggested.
"According to the tradition of the demon clan, he should be called the Great Sage."
…
Everyone was very interested and arguing endlessly.
Nana gnawed on the peach and said: "Seventh brother is born with pride. If you want to compete with God, let's call him the Monkey King."
The Monkey King's eyes lit up, he liked this nickname very much, and said:
"Okay, let's call him Monkey King!"
"Isn't this nickname too arrogant?" Demon King Peng asked a little hesitantly.
Who is Tian?
The Jade Emperor.
The Great Sage Qitian means to be on equal footing with the Jade Emperor, which is very arrogant.
Wukong's expression froze, a little hesitant.
He likes the title "Monkey King" very much, but it is indeed a bit taboo and very arrogant.
Nana didn't take it seriously and said: "Then the God of Mount Tai is still called Emperor Dongyue Tianqi. He is just a Da Luo Jinxian. It doesn't matter. If you are strong enough, you can even shout in the ancestral land of Jiuzhou that the sky is dead and Huang Tiandang is dead."
Stand up and put some eye drops on the Jade Emperor."
The demons were stunned for a moment, a little speechless.
The Bull Demon King rolled his eyes, looked at Nana, and said with a smile:
"The second sister is very well-informed, but the demon race is not a human race, so it would be too reckless to directly call Ban Da Tianzun. However, if the seventh brother just calls Qitian Monkey King, there will be no big problem."
Self-proclaimed nicknames are not so particular.
Some unscrupulous mountain kings, who are not even earthly immortals, dare to call themselves great emperors, great immortals, venerable saints, and generally no one cares about them. Anyway, these guys who don't know the heights of the world will not live long.
If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight. This is especially true in a world where Taoism manifests itself. The backlash of just the title can make those bumpkin's lose their weight.
Nana raised her chest and raised her head, saying, "I also want to give myself a resounding nickname."
Wukong asked curiously: "What's your nickname?"
"Super Sage!"
"..."xN
Everyone was shocked, reacted, and hurriedly tried to dissuade him.
Great Sage Chaotian, this is too ridiculous. She might get beaten up if she goes out. They tried their best to dissuade her, so she gave up the idea.
Even Wukong objected to her being called Chaotian Great Sage, and this title completely crushed him.
Seeing that she finally gave up, the Bull Demon King wiped the sweat from his forehead and said:
"I'm so happy today. Let's give our brothers a nickname. The Great Sage of the Monster Clan, with our strength, we can definitely afford it."
In the ancient times, when the demon clan was at its peak, the great sage of the demon clan must have the cultivation level of Daluo Jinxian. At the peak of Daluo, monsters that touch the quasi-sage realm can be called demon gods.
Demon Master, Demon Saint, and Demon Emperor are exclusive titles and are unique.
Now that the demon clan has declined, there is no need to pay so much attention to it.
The seven kings discussed for a long time and decided on their respective nicknames.
The Great Holy Bull Demon King of Pingtian.
The Great Sage White Dragon King.
The Great Saint Peng Demon King of Huntian.
The great sage who moves mountains, the lion and camel king.
Ventilation Great Sage Macaque King.
The great sage Yu Tao Wang.
Monkey King, Monkey King.
Nana basically replaced the role of the Jiao Demon King, and she won Wukong's trust and had a great influence on him.
The seven great saints return to their thrones.
Wukong was very happy and said to the four strong generals: "Quickly, place a flag with the four characters 'Monkey King, Monkey King' written on it. Hang it on a pole and put it up on the top of the mountain. From now on, I am Sun Wukong, Monkey King, Monkey King!"
"
To be on an equal footing with the Emperor of Heaven, to a certain extent, this is also his life goal.
When he completes his magical power, he will definitely go to heaven, ask his master to be the master of the three realms, and himself to be the emperor of the four realms. He will be able to control the three realms and six realms, and be proud of the immortals and Buddhas all over the sky.
………
Heavenly Court, Lingxiao Palace.
The palace is magnificent, with dragon pillars, glazed roof, floating fairy spirit, thousands of saints, stars and Han people in the sky, civil and military officials, lined up on the left and right, respectfully welcoming the Great Heavenly Lord.
A ten-foot-tall god-man with a majestic face, wearing the crown of the Heavenly Emperor, blue-moon jade boots, and an imperial robe embroidered with nine five-clawed golden dragons, climbed up the steps and sat on the throne.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Someone immediately came up and said:
"Reporting to the Great Heavenly Lord, the steward of the imperial palace - Bima Wen, Sun Wukong, resigned from his post some time ago and returned to the lower realms as a demon."
"This animal is stupid, ignorant of good and evil, and has betrayed Heaven's grace. His crime is unforgivable. I suggest that we send troops to capture him and take him to the Immortal Platform to be executed as a warning to others!" said King Li Tian of Tota.
"inappropriate."
Taibai Jinxing flicked his whisk, stepped out of the queue, and said, "Your Majesty, there is a reason for Bi Mawen's resignation. The Lingshan Buddhist army invaded the blessed land of Huaguo Mountain, and the Monkey King resigned to protect his tribe."
King Tota Li looked serious and said:
"The blessed land of Huaguoshan was originally opened by a certain Buddha. The stone monkey dove occupied the magpie's nest and refused to leave. It should be punished!"
"That's wrong."
Heavenly Sword True Monarch Lu Daoren came out and said, "Although Bi Mawen is a low-ranking official, he is also a member of the heavenly gods. Before he resigned, Buddhism sent troops to attack the blessed land of Huaguo Mountain.
If you care about this, this is a provocation to heaven! Sunlight Bodhisattva and Moonlight Bodhisattva should be punished for subduing dragons and tigers!"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the immortals changed.
What happened in the Huaguo Mountain on the bank of the East China Sea in the lower realm has long been spread to heaven.
The Buddhist army mobilized the masses, but failed. There was also a collision between the Buddha's decree and the Immortal Picture of the Martial God. The earth-shaking power penetrated the barrier between heaven and man, and was felt by the heavens.
King Tota Li Tianwang glared at Lu Daoren and argued:
"Now that Bi Mawen has become an official in heaven, he is no longer the demon king of the lower world. He did not disband his tribe, cut off secular ties, and served the Emperor of Heaven wholeheartedly. He also occupied the blessed land of Huaguo Mountain. It is natural for Buddhism to take action to take back the old land.
, how can it be considered as provoking the majesty of heaven?"
"Yeah?"
Lu Daoren looked calm and looked at Li Tianwang: "If you become an immortal in heaven, you must cut off the worldly ties. Then everyone present must also abandon your own orthodoxy in the human world and no longer have contact?"
All the immortals frowned, especially those with Taoism in the lower realm, such as Zhang Tianshi of Longhu Mountain.
King Tota Li found that everyone was looking at him wrong, and hurriedly explained:
"True Lord, I misunderstood. I didn't mean it this way. But Bi Mawen resigned from office without consent, flouted the rules of heaven, and betrayed the emperor's favor. He is guilty.
He did not open up the blessed land of Huaguoshan Mountain. The property returns to its original owner, so how can there be any offense?"
"King Li Tian is really a noble man who forgets things. When the Buddhist soldiers attacked Huaguo Mountain, Bi Mawen was still a member of the Heavenly Court. They did not notify the Great Heavenly Lord and just used force without consultation. They ignored the king's law. What crime should they do?"
Lu Daoren fought back not to be outdone.
"you--"
King Tota Li Tianwang was a little angry, his beard was trembling, and he wanted to fight back, but he was worried about the other party's identity, so his face turned red.
The immortals in heaven looked at this scene with different expressions, and no one dared to interrupt.
Pagoda Li Tianwang got close to Buddhism and received the exquisite pagoda given by the ancient Buddha of Ran Deng. It is normal to speak for Buddhism.
And Lu Zhenjun...
His background is even greater. He doesn't actually come to court. He is here in Lingxiao Hall just in name.
The face of the Great Heavenly Lord is hidden behind the crown, and is a bit blurry. Only his eyes are golden, as majestic as the sun, illuminating the three realms with candles, and he says:
"Sovereign Heavenly Sword, why did Emperor Gouchen protect the Stone Monkey?"
As soon as these words came out, including King Tota, the Third Prince Nezha, Taibai Jinxing, Universal Heavenly Lord, the Four Heavenly Masters, Twenty-Eight Constellations and other gods, all looked at Lu Daoren.
In the Battle of Huaguoshan, the most sensational one was the confrontation between the Immortal Picture of Qiongtian and the decree of Buddha.
Many people are curious as to why the Monkey King carries Emperor Gou Chen's fairy treasure.
"The emperor has some connections with the Tribulation-Transcending Heavenly Lord, and he owes the other party a favor. This time he takes action just to settle the cause and effect."
Lu Daoren said calmly.
The Jade Emperor was a little curious about the relationship between Gou Chen and the Tribulation Heavenly Lord, but it was inconvenient to ask more at this time, so he said:
"As for Bi Mawen, let him go."
This can be regarded as setting the tone for Bima Wen's resignation from office. He neither punished Shihou nor held Buddhism accountable, so he ignored it.
King Li Tianwang breathed a sigh of relief and respectfully stepped back.
Whether this matter is big or small, just make sure that the fire does not burn Jianglong and Fuhu Luohan.
After a while, Qianliyan stepped forward and said: "To the Great Heavenly Lord, the Monkey King has erected the banner of the Monkey King on the Flower and Fruit Mountain. Along with the self-proclaimed Monkey King are the Bull Demon King, Peng Demon King, White Dragon King and others.
The great sage is sworn in, arrogant and arrogant, and is in the limelight for a while."
"Monkey King? How courageous!"
"Disrespecting God deserves to be tortured by thunder and fire."
Immediately, several immortal officials spoke up and reprimanded the stone monkey for being unruly and arrogant.
Others suggested sending troops to suppress it.
The Great Heavenly Lord didn't say a word, he seemed a little distracted and didn't know what he was thinking.
After Taibai Jinxing was transferred from the god of war to a civil servant, he was the best at trying to figure out the emperor's intentions. Seeing that the Emperor of Heaven was silent, he took a few steps forward and said:
"In my opinion, this monkey is extremely talented, unparalleled in fighting, and has a bravery that is unmatched by any man. He is no less talented than Zhenjun Erlang. In this case, why don't you recognize his title of Great Sage Qitian and set up a
If he does his job in vain, he will be called to heaven to be used by heaven.”
"absurd!"
The King of Tota looked serious and said, "Bima Wen resigned from office and went down to the lower world to fight with the Buddhist monks. Now he has joined forces with the demon kings. He is wild and untamable and fights fiercely. How can such a demon be of great use?"
Many gods also think this proposal is a bit outrageous.
He's just a demon monkey from the lower realm, not even a Great Luo Immortal, but the Monkey King?
"Why is it so useless?"
Nezha suddenly interjected, "With his ability to attack the strong with the weak and almost kill the Sunlight Bodhisattva with one stick, he is more than enough to be a general in heaven."
"you……"
King Li Tian almost vomited blood because of this filial son.
At this time, Lord Taiyin and Fairy Chang'e stepped forward, lightly opened their red lips, and said:
"I think Taibai Jinxing's proposal is good. Stone Monkey is indeed a genius of a generation, unparalleled in battle, and can be used by heaven."
All the immortals looked sideways, a little surprised.
Fairy Guanghan is aloof and rarely meddles in other people's business. She spoke for Stone Monkey today, which seemed a bit abnormal.
Something even more puzzling happened. The Great Heavenly Lord gently nodded and said:
"Okay, then let's confer the title of Monkey King to the Great Sage, the Second Grade Righteous God, Taibai Jinxing, and summon him to the lower realms."
As soon as he finished speaking, he flashed and disappeared.
Immortals: "..."
(?o?;)
Monkey King, the second-grade righteous god?
King Tota, Third Prince Nezha, Taibai Jinxing, the Four Heavenly Masters, and the Twenty-Eight Constellations were all stunned and confused at this time.
Recognizing the title of Monkey King is outrageous, and giving him the title of a second-grade righteous god is simply a dream.
Weird, very weird.
What is the concept of second-level righteousness?
On the same level as the Emperor of the Three Palaces, the Emperor of Dongyue, the Empress of the Three Heavens/the three goddesses of heaven, earth, and people, and Marshal Zhao of the Black Tiger Xuantan.
Before Jiutian Xuannv broke through to the quasi-sage level and became the imperial concubine, she was only a second-grade righteous god.
Stone Monkey has reached the sky in one step.
Even if the Great Sage Qitian is just a fictitious person, in name only, with an official position but no salary, it is enough to make others envious.
Fairy Chang'e was very surprised. The second-grade righteous god was higher than hers. After the ancient times, the status of Taiyin Star Lord in the Shinto system had declined, and he was ranked from the second-grade.
The Great Sage Equaling Heaven, the second rank, this kind of divine position is second only to the Three Pure Ones, Four Imperial Guards, Five Directions and Five Elders.
At the end of the court meeting, the immortals dispersed.
Fairy Chang'e walked towards Lord Tianjian, smiled faintly and said:
"Xiao Lu, is the emperor back?"
"Well, I came back a few days ago, and now I'm out again." Lu Daoren looked respectful, respecting Fairy Guanghan as much as he respects Master Xuannv.
"Where are you going?"
"Beimang Mountain."
………
On the Huaguo Mountain, there are thousands of auspicious auras, auspicious clouds floating, and various visions.
A ray of starlight fell, transforming into a white-haired old man, holding a fly whisk in one hand and a decree in the other, holding his head high and chest high, walking slowly in the front.
Behind him were several ceremonial officers, and behind the ceremonial officers were hundreds of yellow scarf warriors.
"Haotian Golden Tower, the supreme and supreme nature, has the divine decree of Miluo and the True Jade Emperor!"
Taibai Jinxing walked to the military formation of Huaguo Mountain, looked at the big and small demons who were waiting for them, unfolded the decree in his hand, and said loudly, "I decree that Sun Wukong, the Monkey King of Huaguo Mountain, is the Great Sage of the Equal Sky and the Great God of Heaven!
"
The monkeys were stunned, surprised and happy.
Wukong was also surprised and looked up into the sky.
The imperial edict of the Great Heavenly Lord emits thousands of golden lights, like the sun hanging high in the sky, shining brightly and surrounded by purple energy.
"Monkey King, you still don't accept the order?"
Wukong was sure that the imperial edict was true, and accepted it happily, but also full of doubts.
When did the Jade Emperor become so easy to talk to?
I was so stingy last time when I was picking at Sosou.
"Taibai Jinxing, what does the Great Heavenly Lord mean by this? Are you teasing me, Old Sun?"
"Obviously, His Majesty admires you very much and feels that you are a talented person, so he is ready to cultivate you... Let's talk about these things on the way. Come with me. I won't kid you. Heaven has already built a Great Holy Mansion for you. This Qitian
The Great Sage is a second-grade righteous god!"
Taibai Jinxing said, her tone a little sour.
"..."
Wukong was also a little dizzy, so he rode somersault clouds and followed him to the sky.
Pie in the sky?
Or is it that he became famous in one battle, and as time passes, he will finally embark on the path of "Long Aotian" as mentioned by his master?
