Chapter 388: Besieged on All Sides (Part 2)

In front of the South Heaven Gate, a cloud of immortals was shrouded in mist. In the auspicious aura, ninety-nine and eighty-one green jade ships emerged, among which there were thousands of golden lights, sweeping the blankets, corresponding to the palaces of the Heavenly Palace, showing the infinite immortal spirit.

It is really unimaginable that mortals can also go to the Heavenly Palace to compete with it.

When the soldiers and civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty saw Li Sheng holding the Xuanyuan Holy Sword, his whole body was covered with a thin layer of golden light. They didn't know whether it was from the treasure on the ship or from himself, but it was extremely solemn, and they couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Only the few disciples of West Kunlun who accompanied him often had a strange sneer on their faces.

This time I came to the Heavenly Palace, I will have a disaster, and it is not small. Although I am not worried about my life, it is extremely troublesome. I am afraid that I will be implicated.

Li Sheng got nine relics from Nirvana, and with the help of Zhen Yuanzi, he has restored the magical powers of Dou Sheng Buddha in his prime. He also holds Xuanyuan Holy Sword, and can go anywhere in the Three Realms.

The team that came to propose marriage was extremely large, and they all stayed outside the South Heaven Gate, waiting for the Jade Emperor Wen Lanxin to send an edict.

Suddenly, a golden bell sounded, which was very pleasant to the ear. Then the sound of jade chimes also rang, and it rang for 365 times, which is the number of Zhou Tian.

After another half an hour, the trumpets and drums sounded, and the South Heaven Gate opened wide, and suddenly a big man in court clothes, holding a golden book and jade slips, followed by two immortal officials, walked down the high steps. On both sides, there were gods, and the light of golden armor and swords and spears was swallowing. Every 999 steps, there was a yellow-turbaned warrior with a height of 60 feet and holding nine-nine coiled dragon banners.

The Great Saint who Moves Mountains, the Lion King, the Great Saint who Drives Away Gods, the Bull Demon King.

Li Sheng saw the big man in court robes in front of him, who was the Bull Demon King. The two immortal officials behind him, one was the Lion King, and the other was the Monkey King, both of whom were among the seven great saints of the demon clan in the earthly immortal world.

No wonder, since they destroyed my Flower and Fruit Mountain, these few people must be recruited by the Heavenly Court, and it is natural for them to surrender. The Heavenly Court has two holy demon soldiers, and its power has become greater

Li Sheng thought about it secretly in his heart, tightened his grip on the Xuanyuan Holy Sword, and observed the current situation of the South Heavenly Gate and the 33-story Heavenly Palace in the Heavenly Court.

The South Heavenly Gate and the steps that were broken by the monkeys have all been repaired, and they are more majestic, several times more solemn and majestic than the Jade Emperor back then.

The Jade Emperor, after the monkeys made trouble in the Heavenly Palace, became a coward, causing the majesty of the Heavenly Palace to decline. Even the golden immortals and celestial immortals in the thirty-six fairy islands and ten continents under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Palace did not show him mercy, and the Jade Emperor could do nothing about it.

It is different now. Wen Lanxin ascended to the Lingxiao Great Treasure and supervised the Heavenly Dao. There are many brave generals and counselors, such as Jiufeng, Xingtian, Xiangliu, and counselors like Shen Gongbao. There are also the edicts of the two saints, Pangu Yuqing Tongtian Sect Master and Pangu Zhouqing Tiandao Sect Master. How can he have any scruples?

The ten continents, thirty-six islands, and seventy-two caves and blessed lands in the heavenly realm have long been taken over by Wen Lanxin. The disciples of the three Mao Zhenjun and the elders of the Shushan sect who were originally in charge of the upper realms have all voluntarily gone down to the lower world. There are also some immortals who are ignorant of the current situation. Their magic power has been abolished and they have been pressed into the Taiyu Heaven or sent into reincarnation.

The army of heaven destroyed the Flower-Fruit Mountain again, and beat all the monsters in the Flower-Fruit Mountain to disperse, and also captured the Eight Heavenly Dragons and Bodhisattvas. The majesty of heaven shocked the three realms, and no one dared to defy it. Even the demon kings in the lower realms, who had disrespected the heavenly rules before, were now worried in their hearts, fearing that heaven would attack.

If even the Flower-Fruit Mountain couldn't resist, which demon king could resist?

Shen Gongbao persuaded, with the example of the Flower-Fruit Mountain and the current situation of the Bull Demon King, and many things were in front of them, the Lion King and the Ape King, even if they were stone-headed, understood the seriousness of the situation, and naturally accepted the amnesty of heaven, and each became a marshal, and received an official position and residence, which was quite impressive.

The Great Heavenly Venerable has issued an order. He originally did not want to see you, the ministers of the small country in the lower world, but considering that you hold the sacred object of Xuanyuan, Li Sheng is allowed to go to Lingxiao to meet you. The rest of you should retreat 500,000 miles and wait outside. You must not make any noise. Those who violate the order will be punished according to the Heavenly Law.

The Bull Demon King came down and read out the order.

At this time, the human religion is booming, but the Heavenly Court is so rampant that it will sooner or later suffer the disaster of destruction.

There are disciples of Shushan inside, and some scattered earthly immortals are secretly angry. Suddenly, they see several cannons from all directions, flags and banners are waving, and countless heavenly soldiers emerge from the fairy clouds in all directions. They all have hideous faces, fierce and evil spirits, and the demonic aura is faint. They have not retreated. They are obviously fierce earthly demon soldiers.

These countless demon soldiers seem to be ceremonial guards, but as long as there is a disagreement or the Bull Demon King gives an order, they will immediately jump out and kill people and bleed. Li Sheng has no doubt about this.

Let's take a look at the situation. Li Sheng ordered the Tang army to retreat. He went to the South Heaven Gate alone, holding a sword in one hand and a marriage certificate in the other, and came to the Bull Demon King.

The three demon kings, Bull Demon King, Lion King, and Yu Monkey King, smiled and said to Li Sheng.

Li Sheng had no other words, but just said: Please lead the way, three immortal officials, in a calm tone, as if he didn't know the three demon kings.

If it was that monkey, I'm afraid he would have jumped up and started fighting. The Bull Demon King's face moved, and he led Li Sheng all the way to the Jade Pavilion and Golden Heaven, and then entered the Lingxiao Hall. Sure enough, the immortal officials and gods were lined up on both sides.

After reporting to the Great Heavenly Venerable, Li Sheng, the prince of the Tang Kingdom in the lower world, brought the Bull Demon King and the three demons to Wen Lanxin, who was sitting in the upper hall, and then they entered the court one after another, leaving only Li Sheng standing in the center.

Wen Lanxin sneered in his heart when he saw Li Sheng: It would be easy to destroy you, the Buddha, today, but I am not destined to kill you, so I have to let you go and take the opportunity to humiliate you, so as to vent my anger.

Monkey 2 made trouble in the Heavenly Palace, destroyed the Poxiang Hall, the South Gate of Heaven, and injured Little Kunlun. Wen Lanxin wanted to tear the monkey apart and skin it. The Fighting Buddha and the monkey were originally one body, so Wen Lanxin would not let him go.

My emperor has established the lineage of the human religion and has greatly promoted the three realms. Twenty years ago, the fairy Qingqiu descended and appeared in the treasure mirror of heaven and earth, which was exactly the destiny of the Holy Mother of the human religion. Therefore, my emperor ordered me to pass the national letter to the Jade Emperor of the Mysterious Sky, the High God of the Heaven, to marry the Holy Mother of the human religion back to the palace and give a special betrothal gift. Li Sheng raised the sword and held the book.

Ling Yaoqi, who was standing by, was eager to try. Before Li Sheng finished speaking, she suddenly shouted: You are a commoner in the lower world. You have seen the face of the heaven, but you still don't kneel down to report. You are really bold.

Li Sheng said: I am a human religion. The heaven is the way of heaven. The religions are different. Moreover, the prosperity of human religion is a destiny. Since ancient times, people have commanded the gods to move the sun, moon and stars. I have obtained the Xuanyuan Holy Sword and inherited the will of the Three Emperors. You may inherit the gift of the Xuanyuan Holy Sword.

At this time, Wen Lanxin ordered the immortal official to take it. He passed it up and read the marriage certificate. Suddenly, he heard Li Sheng speak, and just sneered twice and threw the book to His Highness.

Bold lunatic, I control the way of heaven and the universe. You are just a prince of the next Tang Kingdom. You don't respect the face of the heaven. I heard that the emperor of the lower world is only Zhuanxu, the grandson of Xuanyuan. You have obtained the Xuanyuan Sword, which is a destiny for you to assist him. He actually presumptuously imposed his fate on himself, so bold

Then he ordered the great witch gods in front of the hall, Xingtian and Xiangliu, to capture the man, destroy his magic power, and press him into Taiyu Heaven

Xingtian and Xiangliu obeyed the order, rushed out, each with a claw, one black and one white, two giant demon claws burst into the air, and grabbed Li Sheng.

It was so vicious, if caught, the magic power would be destroyed, if resisted, it would inevitably reveal the Buddha body, this is difficult to have both, it is really a disaster

Li Sheng thought about it, and knew that the other party was definitely not pretending. If he did not resist with all his strength, he would be captured and his magic power would be destroyed, and he would suffer a loss in vain. Xingtian and Xiangliu were both great witches in the ancient times, and they were feared by the three realms. Even if they fought against the Fighting Buddha alone, they would be defeated, let alone the two of them together.

He immediately drew out the Xuanyuan Sword to meet the attack.

The whole hall suddenly lit up, like lightning breaking through the sky. The sound of the sword whistling and long almost broke through the dome and went straight up to the thirty-three heavens. A long dragon of golden light. Wrapped around, Li Sheng had already appeared in the golden body, with twenty-four heads, eighteen hands, and a height of six feet.

Holding the blessing divine coffin in one hand, he flicked it in the air, just enough to resist Xingtian's Chiyou Three Yin Claws, and the Xuanyuan Sword met Xiangliu's Gonggong witchcraft.

The Xuanyuan Sword is a sacred weapon of the human religion, and it is the highest benevolence. It was produced from Laozi's furnace together with the Vajra Bracelet, and they were both the best at the time. Although it is not as good as the four swords of Zhuxian, nor as good as Yuantu and Abi in terms of killing, the holy way of the benevolent has its own wonderful uses.

Li Sheng drove the Xuanyuan Sword and shook it, and then the whole hall was filled with golden light, like millions of golden dragons dancing vigorously. The golden body of the Fighting Buddha was fierce, and Xing Tian said to himself: My clan leader Chi You was killed by this sword. If I run into it, I'm afraid it will be bad.

At the moment, I can only use witchcraft to dodge, and Xiang Liu thought the same. Fighting Buddha got this sword, which can be said to be like adding wings to a tiger, and his strength has increased several times. What's more, the Xuanyuan Sword is his reincarnation, born from the mother's womb, and combined with the Yuan Ling, the use is even more perfect.

Jiufeng flew out of the white bone Xuanming Pearl, and millions of white bone lights intertwined, like a big net, suddenly covering it, covering the three fighting people.

Then there was a series of crackling noises, and the cover condensed, like a round white bone prison, with interlaced bones and jagged spikes outside. No matter how the fight inside, it can't affect the outside.

The immortal king in the Lingxiao Palace, the gods only saw a huge round bone prison, golden light radiating, two faint shadows floating back and forth, as fast as lightning. It was obviously Xingtian Xiangliu fighting with Douzhansheng Buddha in it.

If it is the Humen Demon Sect, your incarnation of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven has just made trouble in the Heavenly Palace, and now comes to the Heavenly Court to perform the Yuanli, how can I forgive you

Wen Lanxin forced Li Sheng to take out the Xuanyuan Sword and used the real body of Douzhansheng Buddha, but just sneered. Suddenly, Shen Gongbao said: This person holds the Xuanyuan sacred weapon, and it is a matter of human religion. Your Majesty can give the Three Emperors a favor.

Wen Lanxin nodded: Without looking at the Three Emperors, he must be killed

He immediately ordered Jiufeng to demote all the people who came to the earth and talk to the King of Tang. He asked the Hu Sect demon to come to my Heavenly Court to propose marriage, which is clearly an insult to my majesty. Let alone marrying him, even if he comes again in the future, I will send down the heavenly soldiers to attack him.

Jiufeng pointed with her hand, fixed the prison with the white bone Xuanming Pearl, flew out of the hall, and went out of the South Heaven Gate.

Li Sheng was fighting Xingtian Xiangliu alone in the white bone prison. The two witches were entangled very tightly. If he was distracted for a moment, he would be killed. How could he have the strength to break through the white bone prison, but Jiufeng took it out without any effort.

Lingzhuzi and others took over Wen Lanxin's imperial edict and hurried out. They led the army to scatter the Tang army fleet waiting outside, and hurriedly descended to the earth and headed towards Chang'an City.

But Li Shihao had been uneasy day and night since Li Sheng ascended to heaven for several days. He felt itchy in his heart, and thought of Daji again. He was suddenly burning with yang fire, and even had no mind for government affairs, but left it to Li Yuan to take care of. Seeing this, Li Yuan just sneered in his heart.

That day, the Tang army fleet suddenly appeared over Chang'an City. Li Shihao was overjoyed and came out to greet it in person.

The fleet landed at the anchorage outside the city. Li Shihao saw that it was still full of treasures, and Li Sheng was not there. He secretly said that it was not good, and he was furious and asked hurriedly.

The West Kunlun disciple first stepped forward and said: Because the 100 princes, His Royal Highness, did not know what happened. He offended the Jade Emperor, and the Jade Emperor was furious. He arrested the 100 princes and asked for punishment. He will lead the heavenly soldiers to come down and talk to Your Majesty later.

Li Shihao's face was livid. Seeing his unfriendly face, the earthly immortals on the ship quietly came down and retreated.

Li Shihao returned to the imperial city, but only a moment. There was a faint sound of fighting in the sky, and then the flags were fluttering, and countless heavenly soldiers appeared. The sky above the entire Chang'an City was covered.

We are the messengers of the heaven, open the forbidden law quickly Lingzhuzi shouted in the air. Li Shihao ordered to open the forbidden law of Chang'an City. Lingzhuzi did not call the heavenly soldiers down, but brought Jiufeng and several people to the imperial city, and came to the palace hall to meet Li Shihao.

Where did the angel come from Li Shihao asked.

Lingzhuzi said: You are a good Tang King. You don't respect the heaven and do whatever you want. What crime should you be punished for sending the Hujiao demon to my heavenly palace

Li Yuan shouted: You are so bold. The Hujiao was destroyed by my emperor long ago. My emperor is the supreme of the human religion, sitting on the same level with the sky, you dare to scold

Li Shihao shouted back Li Yuan and asked: How to settle this matter

Lingzhuzi said: I'll let you watch Jiufeng pointed his hand, and the white bone Xuanming Pearl flew out, fell to the ground, and turned into a bone prison. Li Sheng, Xingtian, and Xiangliu are still fighting inside.

What does this mean Li Shihao asked

The three people fighting were none other than Tang Wang Baizi and the two great generals of our Heavenly Palace. Tang Wang Baizi was the reincarnation of the Fighting Buddha of the Hu Sect. Its incarnation was the Monkey King of Huaguo Mountain. The last time he made trouble in our Heavenly Palace, the Great Heavenly Venerable sent troops to suppress him, turning Huaguo Mountain into dust, and the monkey escaped. Today, he was actually asked to go to Heaven, which was rude, and the Great Heavenly Venerable was really angry. If it wasn't for the Three Emperors, he would definitely raise troops to punish him. Tang Wang, please take care of yourself.

Lingzhuzi and Jiufeng showed their colors. Jiufeng pointed, and the bone prison turned into Xuanming Pearl again. Li Sheng was pressed by Xingtian. Seeing that the surrounding cages were gone, he hurriedly shook the Xuanyuan Sword and a golden light came out. He was still blocked by Jiufeng, and Xingtian and Xiangliu also withdrew their hands.

With a sound, the front of the palace was clear and bright, and Li Sheng took away the Dharma image.

Lingzhuzi, Jiufeng, Xingtian, Xiangliu and others have left the imperial city and went to the heaven again. Li Shihao really saw the golden body of Li Sheng and was furious. In the hall, Li Sheng and his ministers were uneasy, and Li Yuan was proud. They were watching how Li Shihao would deal with it.

There is nothing to do today, so let's withdraw from the court. After a long time, Li Shihao said coldly: Put Li Sheng in the heavenly prison and wait for punishment

Li Sheng was sure that there would be nothing to do, so he did not resist and let him be suppressed. At that time, there was a lot of discussion in the court, and there was no peace for three days.

In the study, Li Shihao called Li Yuan to come and asked: I want to kill your brother, what do you think I should do

Li Yuan said: If the holy brother is really as the several heavenly messengers said, then it will be very involved and cannot be moved rashly. Although Buddhism has no country, it still has the Western Paradise and Amitabha. The reincarnation of the Fighting Buddha into our Tang Dynasty is worth pondering.

Li Shihao asked: How do you explain this?

Li Yuan said: All the gods in the three realms know that Fighting Buddha, Great Sage Equaling Heaven, and Taoist Wukong are the same person. If the holy brother is really the reincarnation of Fighting Buddha, then Great Sage Equaling Heaven will definitely come to disturb us. That monkey is fierce and stubborn. Even the Jade Emperor couldn't do anything about it back then. Wouldn't my Tang Dynasty be in trouble?

Then what good plan do you have? Li Shihao asked again.

Li Yuan said: Father, you don't need to mention this matter. Just ask about the crime of not doing things well. You can order him to attack Zhuanxu of the South Sea within a limited time. If not, then issue an order to punish him. The Great Sage Equaling Heaven must help. With this help, it will not be difficult to pacify the South Sea. After Father unifies the human religion, he will be ordered to attack the sky. First, he will finish the killing calamity. Second, Father can also borrow his help. When the attack on the sky is successful in the future, he will take over the fairy of Qingqiu.

Li Shihao said happily: This is killing three birds with one stone. But what should we do if their power grows and they rebel?

Li Yuan said: I inherited the Shangqing Dao, and I have set up the Pangu Banner to protect my father's throne. How can he go against the Dao of our Renjiao? I should be the Sanqing Court. The Xitian Buddhist Sect is just a Huzi Demon Sect. How can we let it disturb our Renjiao?

Li Shihao said: This is a good idea. You can pass on my order and give Li Sheng three months to pacify the Zhuanxu clan in the South Sea and make up for his mistakes. Otherwise, bring your head to Chang'an.

Li Yuan was overjoyed. The next day, Li Sheng was summoned to the court and the imperial edict was issued. Li Sheng did not dare to disobey and left Chang'an to come to Zishan City.

Li Shihao just thought about Daji day and night, but he could do nothing. He just wanted to unify Renjiao as soon as possible, accumulate strength, and then submit a petition to the leader of Renjiao to attack the sky so as to snatch Daji.

Wen Lanxin had nothing to do recently, and was teaching Xiao Kun to draw eyebrows in her boudoir. Suddenly, Hongyu Tongzi came in and said, "The teacher wants to see you." Wen Lanxin was overjoyed, and hurriedly packed up, went to the thirty-third heaven, and came to the Tiandao Palace to see Zhou Qing. The teacher called me, what do you want to tell me? Zhou Qing said, "We fought in front of Jinnan Pass, and then we were determined to be the emperor of the human world. I, a disciple of Tiandao, should follow the destiny and complete the killing disaster. In the future, we will avoid many disasters. You ask Zhang Ziran to help Zhuanxu." Wen Lanxin said, "Ziran and his aunt Xigua suddenly dried up half of the blood sea, and they knew that the blood god of the Styx was killed by Tathagata, Zhenyuan, and Wukong. They hated him to the bone. When they heard that Zhenyuanzi was in charge of the military talisman at Jinnan Pass, they wanted to help Zhuanxu. But Zhenyuanzi had great magical powers, and he was helped by the pure people of Saha, and he had many friends. No one could do anything except the teacher. If Junior Brother Ziran goes, he may end up being killed instead of being killed.

Zhou Qing said: Zhen Yuanzi's calamity has also come, and he will be reduced to ashes. You go by yourself and ask Zhang Ziran to end it with him. I will go with Brother Tongtian in a little while.

Wen Lanxin was relieved after hearing this, and he went down to the heaven to make arrangements.

It is said that in the Three Stars Cave of the Slanting Moon on the Fangcun Mountain of Lingtai, Taoist Zhunti sat on the lotus platform, calculated a scene after passing Jinnan Pass, and then came to the Leiyin Ancient Temple of the Western Paradise to see Amitabha.

Amitabha has stopped preaching Mahayana Buddhism and ordered three thousand Buddhas to sit down and meditate. There is no grand gathering in the Western Paradise, and it is really pure.

When Taoist Zhunti entered Leiyin and saw Amitabha, he asked himself: Brother, are you okay?

Amitabha said: Why did you come here? Zhunti said: The day before yesterday, the four religions discussed and re-established the List of Gods. If the seven saints have signed it, it cannot be changed, and the great calamity will be extended by one amount. But the leader of the Heavenly Dao Sect used the fact that the emperor of the lower world had not been established as an excuse, and wanted to pass through the Three Merchants, but he was trapped and could not establish himself.

Amitabha said: It takes the Three Merchants to be established, this is a fixed number.

Zhunti said: Having said that, my Taoist brother and I have a destiny to descend to the mortal world. My Taoist brother and I will descend to the mortal world and go to Jinnan with you.

Amitabha said: I am not stained by the mortal world, but it is not appropriate.

Zhunti said: My Taoist brother has great compassion, and the history should pity me to teach my disciples, so that I can avoid countless disasters, and I have to go with him.

Amitabha then said happily: That's right.

Zhunti said: The destiny has not yet arrived, and my Taoist brother and I cannot descend to the mortal world. After Zhenyuanzi's body is damaged, he will take over Wukong's many disasters in the future. My Taoist brother and I will descend to the mortal world.

Amitabha said: This is the best.

At that time, Zhunti Taoist still returned to the cave and sat in silence, and Amitabha had nothing to say.

In the Nuwa Palace, the goddess Nuwa was sitting and watching Huangting. She knew that Zhenyuanzi was going to be injured, but she couldn't bear it.

Zhenyuanzi had no disasters and grew up in chaos. He had listened to the teachings of Master Hongjun in those days. However, it was destined that he could not become a saint. He could only enjoy the great blessings of earthly immortals, which was far away for billions of years, just like us. But now he could not escape turning into ashes, which was really a bit unbearable. But this is a destiny, which cannot be reversed. Although I am a saint, I can only watch quietly and cannot stop it. There will be a saint dispute in front of Jinnan Pass soon. Although I am not involved in the world, I can't have peace.

The goddess ordered the fairy to sit down.

Bring the demon flag
