"This monkey is under my protection. I don't care what you Buddhists are plotting, but if anyone dares to harm its life or teach it cultivation, don't blame me for not showing mercy."
If these words were spoken by others, they would be incomparably arrogant.
However, these words were spoken by Yang Jian. Even if they were spoken by Yang Jian's incarnation, they would still turn into a threat and a mockery, causing the hearts of the Buddhists to be unsteady. However, no one dared to act recklessly.
This time around, the Buddhists were decisive. Seeing that Yang Jian had expressed his stance, although they felt indignant, they did their best to avoid conflict with Yang Jian. All the experts immediately fled to the west, not staying here for a moment longer.
However, Yang Jian didn't bring the spirit monkey away. Instead, he hid and returned to the mouth of the Guan River, leaving the Xiantian Spirit Monkey to fend for itself on the Flowerfruit Mountain.
Yang Jian didn't wish to interfere too much with the development of this monkey. He couldn't interfere too much either.
This was a spirit embryo nurtured by the heavens and the earth. If he allowed it to explore and comprehend on its own, there might be unexpected effects. It wouldn't be good if he forced it.
Originally, Yang Jian didn't have too much hope for the stone monkey.
In fact, compared to the stone monkey's future development, Yang Jian wanted to see if his disciple Zixia would really have a story with the stone monkey. Of course, no matter what, Yang Jian wouldn't let his precious disciple be tricked.
However, at the moment the stone monkey was born, Yang Jian suddenly discovered the true secret behind why the Buddhists were so interested in this stone monkey …
The matter of the Buddhists prospering and the Journey to the West might be part of the Buddhists' scheme, but it definitely wasn't their entire goal.
The Buddhists seemed to be using a smokescreen, using all sorts of schemes to exaggerate the importance of the Journey to the West to make people ignore the 'strangeness' of the stone monkey. This allowed the stone monkey to be gradually tamed by the Buddhists, eventually becoming a sharp blade in the hands of the Buddhists!
What spiritual stone monkey?! What distracting thoughts?!
To hell with lying!
This stone monkey was born from the great calamity of the world. It had Xiantian essence in its body and Xiantian metal qi in its eyes. Spiritual energy that had been nurtured for countless years flowed through its entire body, not leaking a single bit.
Moreover, the first time the Innate Metal Qi was exposed, it penetrated the array of the Celestial Court and shook every corner of the Heavenly Dao!
If it was a thousand years ago, even if Yang Jian understood the miraculous abilities of the stone monkey, he would only think that all Xiantian lifeforms were like this.
But now, Yang Jian understood why this stone monkey was born.
The change in the Nether Stream was a great tribulation brewing in the world. The entire Primordial World was shrouded in the shadow of the great tribulation, and all living beings were terrified and uneasy.
The Heavenly Dao sensed it and gathered the power of heaven and earth at the shore of the Eastern Sea, creating a spirit embryo to descend into the world. It borrowed the power of the spirit embryo to resist the great calamity that was about to appear.
This was the mission of the stone monkey and also the true 'face' of the stone monkey!
It was born with the body of a monkey because it was a connate body …
Earlier, Yang Jian was worried that exposing too much Innate Gold Qi would damage the monkey's essence, so he knocked him out.
After the stone monkey woke up, the shackles of the world that accompanied him had already been perfectly wrapped around his body, causing his divine brilliance to be restrained and his divine glow to not appear. He would be like an ordinary living being. He would struggle to survive like other living beings and experience the heart of the world.
When the stone monkey comprehended it, he would be able to break through the shackles that the world had placed on him and obtain true light and sharpness.
The Buddhists seemed to have seen through this long ago. They wanted to bring the stone monkey into the Buddhists without anyone noticing. Perhaps they had just discovered that the stone embryo was the Tribulation Taker of the Great Tribulation recently, which was why they forced the Void Bodhi to give up the stone embryo.
Fortunately, Yang Jian's appearance caused the Buddhists to be in chaos.
Now, when the Buddhists faced Yang Jian, they did not even dare to snatch the stone embryo forcefully. They could only retreat temporarily and plan for the future.
Yang Jian pondered carefully and felt less disgusted by the Void Bodhi.
Today, it was not that someone had broken the restrictions of the Void Bodhi. Instead, the stone monkey had jumped out. That was actually beyond the expectations of the Buddhists. Otherwise, the Buddhists would have definitely used methods to conceal the phenomenon and even secretly sealed the stone monkey.
After returning to the mouth of the river, Yang Jian pondered carefully and dispelled the idea of secretly protecting the stone monkey.
He was not blindly confident in himself. He felt that the other factions would not dare to have any thoughts about the stone monkey if he spread the word.
In fact, after Yang Jian calmed down and analyzed, he realized that the stone monkey's sudden appearance was actually because someone was plotting behind the scenes.
In this world, Yang Jian was not the only one who had exceeded the expectations of the Buddhists. There was another person who would protect the stone monkey …
Daoist Heavenly Flame.
Today, the stone monkey had suddenly appeared without any warning. It should have been Daoist Heavenly Flame who had secretly helped him.
However, Daoist Heavenly Flame wanted to balance the various factions of the Primordial World and make them unite to survive the calamity. It was not good for him to go against the Buddhists directly.
Daoist Heavenly Flame needed to use the situation to focus the anger of the Buddhists on Yang Jian. Perhaps Daoist Heavenly Flame had predicted that after Yang Jian discovered the miraculousness of the stone monkey, he would definitely protect it and not let the Buddhists tame the stone monkey as a puppet.
Indeed, Yang Jian took the initiative to stand up and was in the open.
Daoist Heavenly Flame could control the Heavenly Dao and had the Chaos Bell in his hand. He was omnipotent in the Primordial World. He could naturally protect the stone monkey and be in the dark.
One in the open and the other in the dark were people that the Buddhists could not touch or provoke. Who in the Three Realms could touch the Stone Embryo Spirit Monkey?
Even though the monkey was carefree and happy in the mountain, no one could touch a single strand of his monkey hair. Even a Saint of the Great Dao from the Heavenly Dao was not capable.
"Now that I think about it, I've been schemed against by Daoist Heavenly Flame."
Yang Jian chuckled. It was as if he could see the huge bell floating in the clouds of the East Ocean. He felt a little depressed.
He casually took out a communication jade token, wrote a few sentences, and sent them to the six friends of the Plum Mountain nearby.
Soon, hundreds of streams of light flew to the east and hid in the sea near Huaguo Mountain.
The order they had received was also strange. If they saw a monkey crossing the sea, they would immediately report it to the mouth of the Guanjiang River and secretly help send the monkey to the east of the South Continent.
"In that case, it won't affect my previous agreement with Goddess Nuwa."
Yang Jian muttered in a low voice, closed his eyes, and returned his mind to his main body.
The black shuttle flew too fast. When Yang Jian returned to the Black Spirit Kingdom, Red Essence and the others were still on the way.
They had found another four experts, which could temporarily solve the predicament of the Black Spirit Kingdom. Yang Jian thought carefully about whether there were other suitable candidates. After thinking for a long time, he could only shake his head and sigh.
It was really too difficult to find.
There were actually many people who could be completely trusted, such as Nezha and the others, or the disciples of the Plum Mountain. However, there were not many mighty figures and great mystical abilities that could be completely trusted.
It couldn't be helped. Yang Jian had risen in recent years, and he did not know most of the mighty figures of the Primordial World. He would not be at ease if he entrusted so many Chaos Spirit experts to anyone.
When the "phoenix head" was in danger again, he would look for the Great Immortal Zhenyuan.
If it still did not work, he could only look for the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du to think of a solution. At most, he would look for the Three Pure Ones to ask for a decree and force Uncle-Master Xuan Du to come and help.
In any case, when he thought about how Yang Jian was putting in so much effort here, seizing the time to cultivate, taking risks to cultivate two Dharma techniques at the same time, and taking care of the development of the Black Spirit Kingdom and gathering more Chaos Spirits as soon as possible, the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du was sleeping comfortably in some Minor Chiliocosm …
His Dao heart was a little unstable.
Calculating the time when Uncle-Master Red Essence and the others would arrive, Yang Jian did not disturb Ao Xinke and the others. He seized all the time to comprehend the Invincible Golden Body Technique.
He had already gained a lot of insights into the fourth level, the Glass realm.
Next, he only needed to push the Eight-Nine Arcane Art to the eighth level, the Mystic Yellow realm, and then push the Invincible Golden Body Technique to the fourth level, the Glass realm.
Then, he would comprehend two techniques and enter the Saint realm at the same time. He would give birth to two true Great Dao of the Saint and charge into the ranks of the supreme experts!
The process sounded easy, but every small step was extremely difficult. If there was a slight mistake, his body would be crushed, and his soul would be destroyed.
He was most afraid that the Great Dao would not tolerate it. If his True Spirit was destroyed, Yang Jian would really be doomed …
"I have to take a risk in everything."
Yang Jian muttered to himself to cheer himself up. He moved his hands forward, and his body shone with golden light. He continued to deduce the Invincible Golden Body Technique.
Half a month later, Red Essence, Huanglong Daoist, and Ao Fangtian of the Dragons arrived together and arrived near Xuandu City at the same time.
Red Essence and Huanglong Daoist had naturally been to Xuandu City. Back then, Ao Fangtian had fought with Kong Xuan and had also roamed the Chaos Sea for a long time. Naturally, he had arrived at Xuandu City.
At that moment, the three of them saw the vast land that was like a boundless dark cloud pressing down on Xuandu City and scattering the Chaos Sea. Their eyes were filled with shock.
"Did Disciple-Nephew Yang Jian do this?" Huanglong Daoist exclaimed softly. "Is he going to open another world or what?"
Red Essence stroked his beard and pondered. He smiled and said, "This should be the land formed by the four Spirit Realms that were originally floating around Xuandu City. Didn't Disciple-Nephew Yang Jian mention that our goal this time is to help subdue the experts of the Chaos Spirit Race?"
"You two." Ao Fangtian bowed and said, "The two of you are the Uncle-Masters of Yang Jian's brother-in-law. You should be elders. Why don't you wait here for a while? I'll inform Xinke and ask them to prepare to welcome you."
"Ah, why go through so much trouble!?!" Huanglong Daoist snorted. "Why? Don't you think I'm a Dragon?"
Ao Fangtian smiled bitterly. "I don't dare. It's just that when Brother became a disciple of the Saint, the elders in the clan ordered us not to mention Brother …"
"Forget it. These past events are about to become moldy. Don't shake them out." Huang Long looked a little unhappy and led the way.
At the side, Red Essence only smiled and did not say anything. He bowed to Ao Fangtian and left with Huang Long.
Ao Fangtian followed behind the two of them with a strange expression, as if he was looking forward to something …
Before they could release their auras, the array formation around the Black Spirit Kingdom fluctuated slightly. Hundreds of figures surged out from the door closest to the three of them.
According to the customs of the Primordial World, especially the customs of the Dragons, the hundreds of figures lined up in a battle array. Dozens of beautiful women from the Spirit Clan carried flower baskets and lined up in two rows. A long red carpet was spread out in the middle and led directly into the array formation.
Red Essence and Huang Long gestured for each other to enter and walked along the red carpet. Ao Fangtian continued to follow. He did not look around and kept admiring the women from the Spirit Clan on both sides.
However, it was just pure admiration. Ao Fangtian was also old. His mind was no longer as active as Ao Ji and the other dragon sons.
It was inconvenient for Xiao Lan to come into contact with the Chaos aura. Ao Xinke also waited in the array formation with her. When they saw Red Essence and Huang Long enter the array formation, the two women bowed together.
"Greetings, Uncle-Masters."
"Greetings, Uncle-Masters."
"No need to be so courteous, no need to be so courteous." Huanglong Daoist smiled and helped her up. Then, she sized up Xiao Lan and teased, "Yo, isn't this Lord Military Advisor?"
Xiao Lan blushed and replied with a smile, "Why? Uncle-Masters can't get used to it, or do you want me to call you Daoist?"
"I saw that you were flirting with Yang Jian a long time ago. Tsk tsk, good, good."
Xiao Lan stole a glance at Ao Xinke and made a pleading gesture to Huanglong Daoist. Huanglong Daoist could not help but clap and laugh. She was naturally in a good mood.
Red Essence smiled and said, "Why are you fooling around with the children? Has Disciple-Nephew Yang Jian gone into seclusion?"
"I've already sent someone to call for my husband. Uncle-Masters, please rest in the hall."
Red Essence said seriously, "Let me say this first. We're here to help, not to cause trouble for you. It's etiquette for you to call us Uncle-Masters. It's the rule for us to listen to your orders. Jade Mirage Temple has always valued these things. You don't have to treat us like Uncle-Masters. "
Huang Long nodded at the side. His gaze was attracted by the scene at the side. He replied vaguely, "Not bad, not bad. You don't have to treat us like humans."
At the side, Ao Fangtian was blocked in front of the array light wall the moment he entered. He was holding onto his weapon with a bitter smile on his face. His transcendence energy had already been ignited to the peak.
This was because the person who blocked him was none other than the famous Five Colors Commander of the Black Spirit Kingdom …
