In the depths of the Chaotic Sea, there was no living creature within a radius of tens of millions of miles. A dark golden star wrapped in flames was melting at a speed visible to the naked eye.
However, it would take more than three to five years for the entire star to melt.
The Connate Gold Qi that was forced out by the flames scattered in all directions, like huge tentacles appearing on the star. It was quite spectacular.
The Connate Gold Qi gathered into dozens of airflows and surged towards the figure below the star. They continuously filled the figure's body, as if they had entered a deep hole that could not be reached.
This was naturally Yang Jian's main body.
At this moment, he was constantly absorbing the Connate Gold Qi, and the golden runes all over his body seemed to be connected.
In the battle with Ge Li, Yang Jian's greatest gain was that he could clearly sense what kind of realm the fifth level of the Invincible Golden Body Incantation was.
For his mystic body, he could already rely on the Invincible Golden Body Incantation to control the outside and the Eight-Nine Arcane Art to stabilize the inside. With the assistance of the Xuan Gang and Xuanqi to wrap his body, his defense was far stronger than that of a single cultivation method.
However, although Yang Jian had some ideas about how to let the two cultivation methods enter the Sage Realm at the same time, he still couldn't make up his mind …
It was not as simple as opening two doors at the same time. As long as there was a slight deviation when the two cultivation methods became Sages, he would definitely encounter the resistance between the Sage and the supreme powerhouse, causing his efforts to be in vain.
What was even more difficult was that the Eight-Nine Arcane Art and the Invincible Golden Body Incantation could not have any internal connection. They could not be constructed like the Yin-Yang Tai Chi, and they had to maintain their independence …
This was the Great Dao that Yang Jian had been trying to comprehend and search for.
There were no shortcuts on the path of cultivation. If he wanted to achieve it quickly, he would have to take risks and bear the backlash of failure.
There was a possibility of a fatal backlash.
Thinking of this, Yang Jian recalled what he saw when he investigated the stone monkey's aptitude today.
The innate spirit embryo born by heaven and earth, the innate spirit body that was incomparably compatible with the Great Dao … This kind of aptitude was really enviable for a human.
Problems arose.
"How should I teach this monkey?"
Yang Jian began to ponder again. He couldn't let such a talent go to waste, and he couldn't damage his innate Dao foundation.
It was not difficult for Sun Wukong to become an expert. In fact, it was very simple. A few decades would suffice.
The difficult thing was to make Sun Wukong a responsible expert who could carry the flag of the Primordial World.
It was better to let the master teach the disciple.
Unfortunately, his Master had sealed himself in the Qilin Cliff. Yang Jian had thought of visiting his Master several times, but he didn't know if he would disturb his Master's cultivation.
How had his master taught him in the past?
He had talked for a long time before cultivating … Yes, it was time to let Sun Wukong understand this world first.
Just like what his Master had told him about the apotheosis, the Chanism at that time had a way to deal with the calamity, and that was to accept disciples to ward off the calamity. However, Yuding Zhenren told Yang Jian everything, which made Yang Jian dispel the only worry in his heart.
Perhaps, he should also tell the monkey about the calamities of the world. However, if that was the case, would the monkey be under too much pressure …
"It would be good if he could feel the pressure." Yang Jian chuckled. He thought about the situation of the monkey running around the Daoist temple and felt a little helpless.
That fellow's nature was like that. It was indeed good to give him some pressure.
After making up his mind to teach the monkey, Yang Jian began to think about the matter of becoming a Saint with two Daos.
As the Invincible Golden Body Incantation advanced, his Mysterious Yellow Indestructible Body, the eighth level of the Eight-Nine Arcane Art, also showed signs of breaking through to the perfected realm.
Whether he could become a supreme expert in one go depended on the final step.
Of course, he had to have a relatively long time to prepare before that. He had to push the two cultivation techniques to the point where he could become a Saint. Then, he would fight with his back to the wall and become a Saint in a desperate situation.
The night passed quickly. Yang Jian seized the time and shifted his attention back to his incarnation. He slowly woke up on the bed in a warm room.
He stretched out of habit, then realized that he was still in Patriarch Subhuti's "disguise". He quickly regained his composure.
After tidying his robes, Yang Jian carried his horsetail whisk and stepped out of the warm room. Accompanied by the sound of the Daoist temple's bell, he entered the main hall.
A group of disciples stood up and bowed to Yang Jian, saying in unison, "Greetings, Master."
Yang Jian nodded. When he sat down cross-legged, he happened to see the monkey sitting upright in a corner. He looked indescribably comical.
"Today, I'll preach three sutras …"
The moment Yang Jian spoke, Dao runes appeared on their own. A few petals spun gently in the main hall.
Seeing this, Yang Jian actually felt a little depressed.
When an Essence Soul Dao mighty figure of his cultivation level preached the Dao, there would be lotus flowers falling and multicolored light swirling around them. Yet, when he preached the Dao here, he could only cause flower petals to fall …
Forget it. After all, if he cultivated the Essence Soul Dao, he would at most be at the Daira realm. The Essence Soul Dao could only be improved by constantly gaining insights. It was very different from tempering the body.
With that thought, his mood instantly lightened up.
As Yang Jian preached, he paid attention to the monkey's words and actions.
After listening for a while, the monkey began to doze off. After dozing off for a while, it was as though someone had sewn nails on its praying mat, causing its buttocks to squirm.
The two Daoist children beside the monkey kept reminding it to behave. The monkey also knew that it could not move recklessly, but it could not sit still …
From sunrise to sunset, the monkey finally heaved a long sigh of relief when Yang Jian stopped.
Yang Jian said, "If the disciples have any questions, feel free to ask Fire Cloud and Green Mountain."
With that said, he stood up and walked to the door of the hall. The disciples hurriedly stood up to send him off.
After Yang Jian left, the disciples in the hall heaved a sigh of relief. All of them looked at each other and smiled.
The monkey was stunned when he saw that. Then, he asked, "Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters, don't you understand as well?"
He had just joined the sect, so he was naturally the youngest.
A few young girls in Daoist robes chuckled. One of them said, "Master doesn't usually teach. If he does, it's all too profound. How can we understand with our shallow cultivation?"
"Don't talk about Master behind his back!" Fire Cloud walked over with a straight face. The few female disciples hurriedly lowered their heads and admitted their mistakes.
Sun Wukong was still puzzled. "If we don't understand what Master is saying, how can we learn immortal techniques?"
"You will naturally understand the Dao that the teacher is talking about when your cultivation level is high enough." Qing Shan put his hands in his sleeves and walked over with a smile. "If there is anything that you don't understand, Junior Brother Huo Yun and I will answer it for you. Junior Brother Sun, you've just come to the mountain and have fallen behind in your homework. Fire Cloud and I will take an hour to tutor you every day. How about that? "
"Thank you, Senior Brothers. Thank you, Senior Brothers!"
The disciples at the side immediately complained. However, they only complained that the two senior brothers were biased and did not dare to really complain.
'Senior Brother is biased?
'Master is the one who is biased …'
Green Mountain and Fire Cloud looked at each other and smiled. Those could not be pointed out.
The two of them looked at the monkey-like Little Junior Brother and thought of Yang Jian's previous instructions through voice transmission. They felt a wave of envy in their hearts.
When the two of them looked again, Junior Brother Sun had already started playing with the two youths in front of the hall …
In the next few years, the two of them would have to worry.
…
In the Lingxiao Hall of the Celestial Court.
There were still a few figures. However, the Grand Consecrator, Ge Litian, was missing. There were two elders of the Celestial Court who had just been promoted.
A Heavenly General knelt on one knee and had just finished reporting about the matter of Fangcun Mountain in the southwest of the South Continent.
"Yang Jian calls himself Patriarch Bodhi and took in that spirit monkey as his disciple?"
The Jade Emperor frowned slightly and sat there to ponder for a while.
An old man from the Skyward Pavilion said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, when the spirit monkey was born, Yang Jian had already appeared to protect him. Previously, he called the disciples of the Void Bodhi, Jia Jia, and the other Buddhist Saints to the mouth of the Guan River to discuss. It seems to be about this matter. "
The Jade Emperor's expression was a little gloomy. He said calmly, "What do you think of this matter?"
Venus Taibai cupped her hands and smiled. "Actually, Your Majesty, you don't have to worry too much. Yang Jian has been targeting the Buddhist Sect for a long time. The spirit monkey is a great scheme of the Buddhist Sect. Now that Yang Jian can kill a Saint of the Great Dao, he doesn't want the Buddhist Sect to be satisfied. He has already given the Buddhist Sect a lot of face by doing this."
"Lord Taibai Jinxing, you're wrong," the old man said. "According to the Buddhist Sect, the spirit monkey is a Saint raised by heaven and earth. Yang Jian clearly wants to take the spirit monkey for his own use. His intentions are clear."
Venus Taibai swept his gaze over and held his horsetail whisk. He sighed and said, "What's going on? Why did Elder Ge back then, and the current Elder Zhuge, both look like they want to put Yang Jian to death? Who in the world can touch Yang Jian now? "
The elder hurriedly lowered his head. "Your Majesty, please understand. I have no ill intentions. However, in the Three Realms, apart from the Saint, Yang Jian is really a huge threat to Your Majesty … No, it's really …"
For a moment, Elder Zhuge did not know where to start.
The matter of Gold Envoy Ge Li hiding in the Celestial Court had actually spread. Now, no one dared to have anything to do with Elder Ge.
"Don't be anxious. I believe that you are not an otherworldly demon."
The Jade Emperor looked at Venus Taibai. The latter nodded with a smile and did not say anything else.
The Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, Li Jing, walked forward and cupped his hands. He bowed and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, I think that Yang Jian might not be trying to cause trouble or target the Buddhist Sect. According to my understanding of Perfected Lord Qingyuan, he might be afraid that the Buddhist Sect would waste a good talent. That's why he personally taught the spirit monkey. "
"Oh?" The Jade Emperor looked a little displeased. "Can't the Western Buddhist Sect's Saint teach the spirit of the stone embryo?"
Li Jing said, "I'm afraid … I really can't teach him. Now, only Perfected Lord Qingyuan is a physical cultivator …"
As he spoke, another Heavenly General outside the hall reported that the Western Sect's Guanyin had just entered the South-Heaven Gate.
The Jade Emperor said, "There's no need to mention this matter. If my nephew wants to cause trouble, let him do it. Lord Taibai Jinxing, help me welcome Guanyin in. "
"Yes." Venus Taibai agreed and left in a hurry with his horsetail whisk.
After Venus Taibai left, the Jade Emperor's expression turned gloomy.
"Everyone, do you think that Lord Taibai Jinxing can still be my faith?"
The old officials below were stunned. Li Jing frowned secretly, but no one knew how to answer.
The Jade Emperor chuckled and took a sip of immortal tea from the teacup at the side. He picked up some memorials and began to read.
