Journey to the West: Demon Emperor: Beginning as a Little Toad

Chapter 428 The Location of Nine-Leaf Ganoderma
"Chickens raised by the Jade Emperor..."

Xiao Chen was surprised when he heard this, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was reasonable.

After all, there are all kinds of strange things happening in heaven.

The forest is big and there are all kinds of birds.

The Jade Emperor actually has a pet chicken and a "golden-haired pug" in heaven.

These two pets are also quite famous in the Heavenly Palace.

On the way west, I encountered a disaster in Fengxian County.

The prefect of Fengxian County offended the Jade Emperor.

The Jade Emperor let his pet chicken peck at the rice next to the mountain of rice.

Let the golden pug lick the noodles in front of the mountain of noodles.

When the chickens have finished eating the rice and the puppies have finished eating the noodles, it will rain in Fengxian County.

You say, this is a bit absurd, right?

But these absurd things do exist in heaven.

The chicken in front of him wants to replace the original Pleiades Star Lord and become the new Pleiades Star Lord.

It must be this chicken.

After all, these three realms are very competitive, and everyone wants to make progress.

A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier.

A chicken that doesn’t want to be the “Chicken Star God” is not a good chicken.

Chickens also have their own pursuits, and they also want to make progress!

It seems that this chicken is also unwilling to be mediocre.

"If one person succeeds, all the family members will benefit."

Xiao Chen looked at the big rooster playing in the military camp and felt secretly moved.

He did know some stories about the Jade Emperor's pet chicken and the golden-haired pug.

The Jade Emperor Zhang had been practicing since he was young and had gone through untold hardships. He endured 1,750 calamities and no one knew how many lifetimes he had gone through before he was able to ascend to the throne of heaven.

The Jade Emperor has different experiences in each life, and his personality is naturally different as well.

In one of his lives, the Jade Emperor Zhang was a very stingy person. He was reluctant to throw anything away and even regarded the chickens and dogs in his home as treasures.

When he ascended the throne, the Jade Emperor actually brought all the chickens and dogs in his home to the Heavenly Palace and asked them to go to the Heavenly Palace together to set up a system.

Let the chickens and dogs at home go to heaven and enjoy happiness together.

This is:
"One person gets the Tao, and the chicken and the dog ascend to the sky."

The Jade Emperor's pet chicken and pet dog came to heaven just like that.

As a chicken raised in the mortal world, this chicken has been accompanying the Jade Emperor in the mortal world. Naturally, their relationship is extraordinary and the chicken is deeply loved by him.

It can be said that this chicken is the Jade Emperor’s precious chicken, the precious chicken.

However, as to whether this pet chicken can replace the Pleiades Star Lord

Xiao Chen found it hard to say.

After all, this chicken is just an ordinary chicken in the mortal world. Compared with the "double-crown rooster" of the Pleiades Star Lord, which is a cross between a Dapeng and a Rakshasa ghost, its strength is obviously incomparable.

"I hope this chicken will be successful..."

"Then the life of this original Pleiades Chicken in the heaven will be difficult..."

Xiao Chen changed his mind and thought that if this pet chicken could really replace the Pleiades Star Lord, it would also be a good thing for him, King Golden Horn.

After all, this pet chicken obviously looks like a "newbie". If this "newbie" really becomes the new Pleiades Star Lord, the strength of the Pleiades chicken lineage will inevitably be greatly reduced.

From then on, the Pleiades were no longer a concern.

……

In the Heavenly Army Camp.

"Oh, oh, oh..."

"Oh, oh, oh..."

The clear and loud crowing of a rooster pierced the sky.

The arrogant big rooster with bright feathers was playing with the big dragon ball in the training ground and having a lot of fun.

The big rooster either jumped, pecked, or flapped its wings, and every movement seemed so easy, as if the dragon ball was its natural playmate.

The dragon ball seemed to come to life under the rooster's feet, moving flexibly between the pair of feet.

Presumably, this big rooster usually uses its unique skills to amuse the Jade Emperor.

After all, for a pet, "knowing how to play with a ball" is a must.

Pet dogs can play with balls, pet cats can play with balls, and pet chickens can naturally play with balls too.

Sudden.

Just when everyone thought this was just the rooster's daily play, the atmosphere suddenly changed!
This big rooster seemed to have instantly transformed into a fierce general on the battlefield, exuding an awe-inspiring and inviolable aura!

It makes people shocked.

The big rooster suddenly flashed like a black lightning and launched a close attack on the dragon ball.

Then, the big rooster turned its back with smooth and swift movements, and then made a sideways slam!
This is its unique skill - "Iron Mountain Backrest"!
"Leaning" is a close combat technique, which mainly includes two types: leaning from the side and leaning from the back.

Back leaning is also known as "Iron Mountain Leaning" or "Tie Mountain Leaning". It is a method of sudden attack with the back against the opponent in close combat.

At this moment, the big rooster used the "Iron Mountain Backing" which was simple and fierce, short and dangerous, with sudden rise and fall, and hard opening and hitting.

Its impact is like a thunderbolt, which makes people tremble with fear.

The dragon ball was shaken by the power of the big rooster, and it flew out with a "whoosh" sound like an arrow from a bow. It drew a perfect arc and hit the red heart of the distant bull's eye accurately!

There was a moment of silence.

It was quiet all around, not a sound could be heard.

Everyone seemed to be shocked by the big rooster's unique skill of "Iron Mountain Backing".

No one spoke for a while, which seemed a bit awkward.

Everyone was stunned and somewhat at a loss.

Sudden.

"it is good!"

A cheer broke the silence, followed by a tide of admiration.

"Wow! It's really amazing!"

"Little Zhang Xingjun, this is a really good Iron Mountain Lean!"

"The power of Little Zhang Xingjun must have at least 10,000 years of cultivation experience. Who can resist it?"

"I would rather take Tianshang Xingjun's ten punches than try to resist Xiaozhang Xingjun's attack!"

"This Iron Mountain Backer is truly invincible in the world!"

……

All the heavenly soldiers and generals cheered loudly, and the sound of praise was endless.

Little Zhang Xingjun, half-transformed into human form, wearing a black feather tights, hiding a chicken foot...

A chicken foot was revealed...

This is exactly: "Golden Rooster Stands on One Leg!"

At this moment, little Zhang Xingjun was standing proudly in the center of the training ground in the posture of "standing on one leg", with an expression full of arrogance and confidence.

Little Zhang Xingjun looked around and, with a voice as loud as a bell, he taught the secret of the chicken feet kung fu to the heavenly soldiers and generals:
"Although your punches are swift and fierce, they are not fast enough, and they are not fierce enough!"

"It lacks the power to deliver that fatal blow!"

"It is powerful, but lacks flexibility and cannot cope with the ever-changing battlefield!"

"From now on, follow me and learn this 'unparalleled' chicken feet kung fu."

"The essence of the so-called Iron Mountain Backing is not a simple collision of forces, but to first defend and cover up one's fatal weaknesses, while revealing a chicken foot..."

"Use a chicken foot as bait to provoke the opponent and induce him to attack. When the opponent takes the bait, it is the perfect opportunity for us to counterattack!"

"The power of ten punches may shock the enemy, but it is not as sharp as one elbow. And how can the power of ten elbows compare to the dominance of one lean of mine?"

"Iron Mountain Lean is about using defense as offense, turning the enemy's defense into offense. With just one move of 'Iron Mountain Lean', you can easily knock down the enemy!"

……

At this moment.

All the heavenly soldiers and generals cooperated very well.

They listened with fascination and seemed really fascinated by this "Chicken Feet Kung Fu".

"Just watch!"

"This move is called 'Continuous Iron Mountain Lean'..."

After saying that, Xiao Zhang Xingjun threw the dragon ball up, then the raised chicken leg shook lightly, the chicken body shook, and its figure turned into countless afterimages, and he performed another powerful move of "Continuous Iron Mountain Lean".

I saw Xiao Zhang Xingjun's figure moving back and forth on the training ground like lightning. Every time he hit the dragon ball, it was accompanied by a roar, as if it was going to shake the entire training ground.

"Good chicken punch, good chicken kick kung fu!"

"What a great support! The power of this support is extraordinary, it can shake the heavens and the earth!"

"This chicken fist is truly unique in the world. We should adopt it as our military boxing to show our military power and spread the name of our Tiangong!"

……

All the heavenly soldiers and generals cheered, and the parade ground suddenly became bustling and lively.

A group of heavenly soldiers and generals surrounded Little Zhang Xingjun, staring at his every move without blinking, concentrating on learning the unique chicken foot kung fu and the mighty iron mountain backing.
This scene is magical and weird.

But in this solemn and dignified place of Heaven, it is actually being performed on earth.

Which one is more important to these ordinary heavenly soldiers and generals: Laozi's cow or Jade Emperor's chicken?

The answer is self-evident, it is naturally the Jade Emperor's chicken.

The Three Pure Ones reside outside the Thirty-three Heavens, high and distant, ignoring the mundane world which is too far away from them.

However, the Jade Emperor is the real master of the three realms. His every word and action directly affects their careers and destinies.

How about this Chicken Feet Kung Fu and Iron Mountain Backrest?
In their minds, this is actually not very important.

What’s important is that the sound of this chicken can be directly transmitted to the ears of the Jade Emperor.

This chicken of the Jade Emperor must be coaxed, and it must not be neglected here, let alone be dissatisfied. In the heavenly court where power is intertwined, a word from this chicken may determine the fate of a heavenly soldier or general.

What's more, if this chicken could say a few good words in front of the Jade Emperor, wouldn't its future be bright, like the rising sun, illuminating the way forward?

"Little Zhang Xingjun, this chicken mountain relies on..."

"No, no, no, this Tieshankao is really powerful!"

……

Duan Tianliang, the captain of Yang Guoshan, also came over at this moment and asked Xiao Zhang Xingjun for advice on chicken foot kung fu with a pious look on his face.

Duan Tianliang studied seriously and practiced diligently, as if he wanted to integrate this kung fu into his own body.

"practice!"

"Practice!"

"Show us your chicken feet!"

"Get up!"

Following an order from Little Zhang Xingjun, all the heavenly soldiers and generals started practicing in unison.

"Oh, oh, oh..."

"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!"

The heavenly soldiers were agile and moved in unison. Every attack was accompanied by loud shouts, as if they wanted to concentrate all their strength in this one attack.

"Oh, oh, oh..."

"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!"

"Oh, oh, oh..."

"Iron Mountain Damn!"

"Continuous Iron Mountain Lean!"

Suddenly, a strange melody rang out on the parade ground, a mixture of the crowing of cocks and the shouts of heavenly soldiers and generals.

This scene, both funny and solemn, absurd and real, has become a unique landscape in heaven.

This is not about practicing being strong, but about practicing the ways of the world.

What I am practicing is my own "great future"...

……

"This chicken is indeed a weakling. Compared with the Pleiades chicken, it is nothing to worry about."

"Chicken, chicken, work hard and try to replace the Pleiades chicken..."

Xiao Chen glanced at the arrogant rooster and thought to himself.

Subsequently.

Xiao Chen withdrew his thoughts and exchanged a glance with Princess Halloween.

The two demons turned around and returned to their residence.

Their residence is located in the ninth heaven.

On the ninth layer of the sky there is a mountain called "Chixia Mountain".

Every time the sun sets, the mountains are dyed red by the sunset, as magnificent as flames, hence the name.

Yang Guoshan and Yang Long's residence is a three-story courtyard on the hillside of Chixia Mountain. The courtyard is surrounded by mountains and water, and the environment is pretty good. The two big characters "Yang's House" are engraved on the lintel.

This Chixia Mountain is also the residence of many silver-armored heavenly soldiers.

In front of Yang's house, two servants stood respectfully, waiting to be ordered.

Seeing Yang Guoshan and Yang Long coming back, the two servants hurried forward, bowed and saluted, saying:

"The Immortal Lords are back."

In the strictly hierarchical place of Heaven, status is relative.

To these servants, Xiao Chen, Princess Wansheng and other silver-armored heavenly soldiers were already considered the high and mighty immortal kings in their eyes.

Then, two servants opened the courtyard gate.

One servant was busy making the fragrant cloud tea, while the other was washing the delicious snow lotus fruits.

This was Yang Guoshan and Yang Long's previous practice, and Xiao Chen did not stop him.

Everything is as usual.

Soon, two servants brought in the steaming hot cloud tea and the washed snow lotus fairy fruit.

"You all go down and wait outside the courtyard gate."

Xiao Chen waved his hand gently and dismissed the two servants.

Afterwards, he and Princess Halloween sat opposite each other at the tea table, sipping the cup of steaming Cloud Fairy Tea.

At this moment.

Xiao Chen and Princess Halloween sat quietly beside the tea table. On the surface, they seemed silent, but in fact they were communicating secretly through their unique "Mosquito brand wireless phone".

……

"Ao Yao, where do you think the Nine-Leaf Ganoderma Lucidum Grass might be located in the Heavenly Palace?"

Xiao Chen asked Princess Halloween through the Mosquito Brand Wireless Phone.

Princess Halloween tilted her head slightly, a trace of thought flashed in her eyes, and then she responded with the "Mosquito Brand Wireless Phone":

"This Lingzhi herb is generally quite delicate and has extremely demanding requirements for the environment."

"Especially the Nine-Leaf Ganoderma Lucidum. It is extremely picky about the environment and needs to absorb the purest energy between heaven and earth to thrive."

Princess Halloween paused for a moment and continued:

"After coming to this heaven, I discovered that among these thirty-three heavens, the higher the heavens you go, the denser the air of heaven and earth becomes..."

"If the Nine-Leaf Ganoderma wants to grow, it will definitely choose such an environment."

Xiao Chen nodded and said:

"That's true..."

"The lightest and purest air rises to form the heavens. The lightest and purest air is naturally in the highest heaven, which is the thirty-third heaven."

Princess Wan Sheng was delighted to see that Xiao Chen had the same idea as her, and then asked:

"King Jinjiao, let's try to go to the Thirty-three Heavens to find out what's going on. What do you think?"

Xiao Chen thought for a moment after hearing this and said:

"Ao Yao, we should go to the Thirty-three Heavens to take a look."

"I estimate that the nine-leaf Ganoderma lucidum grass is probably in the thirty-third day."

After all, according to what Xiao Chen knew, Journey to the West once recorded:
"The Lord of the Wansheng Palace sneaked into the Lingxiao Palace in Daluo Heaven and stole the Nine-Leaf Ganoderma Lucidum from the Queen Mother."

The Daluo Heaven is the thirty-three heavens within the Three Realms.

Lingxiao Palace is located in the Thirty-three Heavens.

A thousand years later, the Queen Mother's nine-leaf Ganoderma lucidum was in front of the Lingxiao Palace in the Thirty-three Heavens.

Even now, this Nine-Leaf Ganoderma Lucidum is not in front of the Lingxiao Palace. According to Princess Wansheng's judgment, this Nine-Leaf Ganoderma Lucidum can only be kept alive in the thirty-three days.

"King Jinjiao, these thirty-three heavens are the most important in the heavens, and they are heavily guarded. We, the silver-armored heavenly soldiers, have too low a status to go up there."

Princess Halloween frowned, and there was some helplessness in her words.

"Yeah, how do we get to the thirty-three heavens?"

Xiao Chen also frowned slightly, thinking about this question.

After all, there is a strict hierarchy in heaven.

High-level immortals can travel freely in the lower heaven, but low-level immortals are strictly forbidden to set foot in the territory of the higher heaven. This is an iron rule.

Just as King Jinjiao and Princess Halloween were thinking, there was suddenly movement in Xiao Chen's "small world in his belly".

A slight buzzing sound was heard, like the sound of a mosquito, but clearly audible.

The Mosquito cordless phone is ringing.

Xiao Chen's heart moved, and he immediately realized that it was the Great Sage Huang Feng calling him through the "Mosquito Brand Wireless Phone".

"My Lord, my Lord, are you there?"

"Are you there?"

"can you hear me?"

The Great Sage Yellow Wind called out.

"Yes, Huang Feng, I'm here."

"Did you find anything?"

Xiao Chen responded quickly, secretly hoping that Great Sage Huang Feng would bring some good news.

"My Lord, I found a painting in the hall of Tiangang Disha of the Doubu."

"The person in the painting looks very similar to the young mistress."

The Yellow Wind Great Sage said.

"What? Looks like the Flower Fairy?"

Xiao Chen was stunned when he heard this.

The image of the Flower Fairy, who was elegant, gentle and lovely, immediately emerged in Xiao Chen's mind.

Although King Jinjiao owns nearly ten thousand miles of territory, has hundreds of demon generals, tens of thousands of demon soldiers, and countless creatures under his command, he is already the king of the demon world.

In ancient times, emperors often had many wives and concubines. But until now, the Golden Horned King actually only had one legal wife, the Scorpion Spirit, and a maidservant, the Hundred Flowers Fairy.

The eldest mistress is naturally the Scorpion Spirit, and the young mistress is naturally the Flower Fairy.

The Great Sage Huangfeng had followed the King of Golden Horn for many years, so naturally he knew the Fairy of Flowers.

"Could it be..."

"This Hundred Flowers Fairy is actually some kind of female fairy from the Heavenly Court Fighting Department?"

Although Xiao Chen had guessed long ago that the Hundred Flowers Fairy might not be an ordinary person.

But when he heard this news from the Great Sage Huangfeng, Xiao Chen's heart was still full of doubts.

He was waiting for further explanation from the Great Sage Yellow Wind.
