Others follow advice and imitate celebrities, but you start by pretending to be a god?

He sought guidance from a master and practiced cultivation. Five hundred years ago, he caused chaos in the Dragon Palace and the Underworld. Later, he was recruited by the Heavenly Court to serve as the Horse Keeper. But he was not satisfied with this. After he rebelled against the Heavenly Court, he was recognized as the "Great Sage Equaling Heaven" because of his great power. By chance, he caused chaos in the Heavenly Palace, fought against 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals, and even broke into the South Heavenly Gate and almost destroyed the Lingxiao Palace.

Although Lin Nan's explanation was concise and clear, it did not omit too much key information. After all, in the near future, the Journey to the West will definitely pass through Chechi Kingdom. It is not a bad thing to let the three immortals know some news about Sun Wukong in advance.

"Later, the Tathagata Buddha of Lingshan Mountain in the West took action personally and suppressed him under the Five Finger Mountain for five hundred years." Lin Nan continued, "Calculating the time, it will not be long before he can escape."

After hearing Lin Nan's story, the three immortals were all shocked: "How could there be such a ferocious demon king in this world, called the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, causing havoc in the Heavenly Palace?" They were shocked and could not accept it. As Taoist practitioners, the Heavenly Palace in their minds should be a majestic and inviolable existence. Now that they heard such a story, didn't it mean that Sun Wukong was too powerful?

Lin Nan noticed their emotional fluctuations and explained, "There are some hidden stories about the havoc in Heaven that we cannot understand. You don't have to take it too seriously."

Although the three immortals nodded in agreement, they were still confused: "Why does fellow Daoist seem to be instructing us? Could it be that the Monkey King will have some interaction with us?" They were filled with confusion and expectation.

"Could it be that the Monkey King, Sun Wukong, has some connection with us?" The three immortals looked suspicious. They noticed that Lin Nan seemed to have intentionally emphasized his tone when he mentioned the Monkey King.

"Indeed." Lin Nan looked up to the east, his eyes gleaming with a deep light. "About ten years later, a group of people will come from the Tang Dynasty in the East and embark on a journey to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures. Their only way to get the scriptures is through Chechi Kingdom."

"Among this group of people is the Monkey King Sun Wukong who once dominated the heavens." Lin Nan's words made the three immortals look at each other in disbelief.

"This...how is this possible?" Huli Daxian spoke first, with a hint of astonishment in his voice.

"Yes, it is amazing that fellow Taoist can predict what will happen decades later!" Immortal Luli also echoed, his eyes full of admiration.

Lin Nan smiled slightly, but he felt helpless. He understood that the focus of these three immortals was not that Sun Wukong would pass through Chechi Kingdom in the future, but that he, Lin Nan, could predict things more than ten years ago, which forced him to take some precautions in advance.

"My fellow Taoists, don't think that we can sit back and relax in Chechi Kingdom." Lin Nan's tone became serious. "Chechi Kingdom is located in Xiniu Hezhou, which is the territory of Buddhism. In the future, Sun Wukong will pass through this place to promote Buddhism and travel west to obtain Buddhist scriptures."

"As for our Chechi Nation, which respects Taoism and despises Buddhism, we may become their target." Lin Nan continued, revealing a hint of worry in his tone, "We may even put our lives in danger."

Lin Nan was not exaggerating. According to the original trajectory, these three immortals would indeed die tragically because of their battle with Sun Wukong, and their corpses would be whipped after death. But now, because of the appearance of Lin Nan, everything has changed.

"Humph, even if he is Sun Wukong, so what?" Lu Li Daxian snorted coldly, with a trace of disdain in his eyes, "We have four great national masters in Chechi country, and we have the help of Taoist Mingxuan. Are we still afraid of him?"

"That's right, what do we have to fear?" Yangli Daxian also echoed, his tone full of confidence.

Huli Daxian also nodded in agreement. Over the years, with the help of Lin Nan, their strength has greatly increased, and their self-confidence has also swelled. Even after hearing about the great reputation of Sun Wukong, they are not afraid at all.

However, Lin Nan did not let down his guard. He knew that although these three immortals were very powerful, they still could not be careless when facing a strong man like Sun Wukong.

“My three fellow Taoists, you are too optimistic.” Lin Nan said softly, “Sun Wukong, who caused a great disturbance in the Heavenly Palace in the past, has already reached the realm of Great Celestial Immortal. In the future, when he is on his journey to obtain the scriptures, he will surely be promoted to the Great Yi Golden Immortal above the Primordial Universe.”

"And I have not yet become a celestial being. If I face Sun Wukong, I'm afraid I will find it difficult to resist." Lin Nan's words made the expressions of the three immortals become solemn.

Lin Nan turned his head and looked at Chechiguo, where the monks who were forced to work were working hard. Their figures looked particularly desolate in Lin Nan's eyes.

"We in Chechi Kingdom respect Taoism and despise Buddhism. When Sun Wukong passes by, there will be a fierce battle." Lin Nan reminded again, "Three fellow Taoists, you must not be careless. You must practice well to prepare for emergencies. This will also give you more confidence when you face Sun Wukong in the future."

"We understand." The three immortals nodded solemnly after hearing this. They knew that what Lin Nan said was true and they had to take it seriously.

Seeing this, Lin Nan flipped his palm and several Taiyi Purple Gold Pills appeared in his palm. He handed the pills to the three immortals and said, "In the next period of time, you must practice well. If you can form a golden pill, it will be a great thing. I will wait and see."

After that, Lin Nan took out another Taiyi Purple Gold Pill and prepared to return to Sanqing Temple to practice. This Taiyi Purple Gold Pill is the best among the immortal pills. Although it is not as magical as the Nine-Turn Golden Pill, its medicinal power is also extraordinary. For the three great immortals, one Taiyi Purple Gold Pill is enough for them to digest for a long time, which is of great benefit to their practice.

"How can we use this?" The three immortals declined immediately after seeing this. "This is something given by the Supreme Lord Lao, how can we use it lightly? You should take it yourself."

"Yes, yes, yes, fellow Taoist, you should keep it for yourself." The other two immortals also echoed.

Lin Nan shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "There is no need for the three Daoists to refuse. I still have Taiyi Purple Gold Pills here, which are enough for cultivation. This pill is of great help to you, but for me it is just icing on the cake."

As he spoke, Lin Nan distributed the Taiyi Purple Gold Pill in his hand to the three great immortals. Seeing this, the Great Immortals Tiger Power, Deer Power, and Sheep Power no longer refused and accepted the pills one after another, feeling grateful to Lin Nan.

After presenting the elixir, Lin Nan did not stay for long. He flew up on the wind and returned to his own Sanqing Temple. Jade Rabbit followed closely behind him and returned to the Sanqing Temple together.

After returning to Sanqing Temple, Yutu hesitated for a moment, and finally asked, "Daoyou, you seem to know everything about the Journey to the West?"

Lin Nan turned to look at the Jade Rabbit and said with a smile, "Hasn't Fairy Jade Rabbit also heard about the Journey to the West?"

When Lin Nan was talking to the three immortals, Jade Rabbit was listening quietly. Lin Nan had already noticed her reaction at that time, and it was obvious that she was not unfamiliar with the Journey to the West. "I do know something." Jade Rabbit sighed and said, "When I was in the Heavenly Palace, Lady Taiyin mentioned this many times. Even the fact that Marshal Tianpeng was demoted to the mortal world was related to the Journey to the West."

"The Queen Mother Taiyin once said that this was a preparation for the Journey to the West." Jade Rabbit continued, "The Journey to the West is no secret in the Heavenly Palace and it is about to begin."

Lin Nan nodded, not surprised. The Journey to the West was not unfamiliar to most of the gods in the Heavenly Palace. Many gods even participated in it and became pawns.

Even the Jade Rabbit in front of her may not be a chess piece placed by the Taiyin Star Lord. In the future journey to the West, she may encounter the Journey to the West team and become a difficulty on their journey. However, the Jade Rabbit herself did not realize this.

"The body of the pilgrim contains the essence of ten lifetimes. If an ordinary monster eats a bite of it, they will become immortal." The Jade Rabbit continued, "And its essence may also help me break through to the realm of Taiyi Supreme Immortal."

At this point, Jade Rabbit's tone became a little hesitant: "I once had the idea of ​​trying to steal the yang energy of the pilgrims when they passed by. But..."

Jade Rabbit frowned slightly and continued, "Now I feel something is wrong, but I don't know where the problem lies. Perhaps fellow Taoist can give me some advice."

Lin Nan was very surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that Yutu would realize that his idea was wrong. It was just like a fish in a net suddenly realizing that it was in the net.

However, this is also a good thing for Jade Rabbit. Lin Nan looked at Jade Rabbit and asked, "Since Fairy Jade Rabbit has noticed something is wrong, do you think there is something wrong?"

"If you really want to steal the Yuan Yang of the pilgrim, with the attention of all the immortals and Buddhas and the protection of Sun Wukong, how can you succeed?" Lin Nan's words were like a puzzle that was cleared up, making Jade Rabbit suddenly realize.

"Yes, how could I have the idea of ​​stealing the yang energy of the pilgrim?" Jade Rabbit muttered to herself, and finally realized, "The pilgrim will have disciples to protect him, and will also have the help of immortals and Buddhas, how can his yang energy be easily taken away?"

Jade Rabbit's face showed a clear look, she bowed to Lin Nan and said: "Thank you for your enlightenment."

Lin Nan nodded and said, "The Jade Rabbit Fairy was just trapped in a maze, and no one pointed it out. Now that she has realized it, it is not too late."

These words made Yutu wake up completely. She knew that there was something wrong with her previous mentality and she must not slack off in her pursuit of the truth.

Lin Nan looked at the Jade Rabbit and felt a little relieved. After all, he had been with the Jade Rabbit for a while, and he didn't want to see her become a pawn and be manipulated by the immortals and Buddhas.

"If you only rely on external things when practicing, you will eventually fall into the lower level." Lin Nan said earnestly, "If the fairy can restrain her thoughts, she may be able to make further progress."

He pointed out Jade Rabbit's mental problems and hoped that she could practice well, as there might be a chance for her to be promoted to Taiyi Immortal.

"Anyway, there is still some time before the fairy returns to Taiyin Star, so why don't you take this opportunity to practice well?" Lin Nan continued.

The Jade Rabbit Fairy nodded and said with emotion: "Daoyou is right. If that's the case, why don't I take this opportunity to practice well?"

During these days in the lower world, Jade Rabbit had been thinking about seizing the essence of the pilgrim in the future, so that she could break through to the realm of Taiyi Supreme Immortal in one fell swoop. However, she neglected the importance of cultivation. Now that she was trapped in the maze, she suddenly realized how stupid her previous thoughts were.

Now, Yutu has realized her mentality problem. She knows that she must not slack off in her pursuit of the truth. Only by constantly practicing hard can she go further on the road ahead. Lin Nan, Huli Daxian and others have made significant progress during this period of time, but she has been standing still.

Now, Yutu has made up her mind to practice well and not be disturbed by the temptations of the outside world. She believes that as long as she works hard to practice, she will be able to achieve greater success in the future.

Lin Nan nodded gently, feeling quite relieved. Seeing that Yutu was finally able to let go, he felt relieved. At this moment, he was in Sanqing Temple, and he was not in a hurry to enter meditation, but chose to sit cross-legged and quietly sort out the current situation.

As he traveled between the two worlds more and more frequently, he encountered more and more things, and the doubts in his heart increased. These doubts were not groundless, but there were various signs to follow.

"Now, Taishang Laojun seems to have noticed my existence and expressed his approval of me, otherwise he would not have given me this gourd of Taiyi Purple Gold Pills." Lin Nan thought to himself.

However, he still had many questions in his mind: "Does Taishang Laojun really know my true origins? Also, has Zu Tianshi also noticed my existence? Even if he didn't know before, he should have noticed it after I used the 'Yangping Zhidu Gongyin'."

Thinking of Master Zu Tianshi, Lin Nan couldn't help but feel a little worried: "I don't know what attitude he will have towards me. However, since Taishang Laojun has already expressed his approval, even if Master Zu Tianshi knows of my existence, he should not have an extreme reaction, so I don't need to worry too much."

Lin Nan continued to sit cross-legged, thoughts racing through his mind: "Last time I offended Guanyin Bodhisattva, I don't know when he will attack me again. Now that Chechi Kingdom's position in Xiniu Hezhou is becoming more and more stable, and the influence of Taoism is gradually deepening, the Buddhist sect will never sit idly by."

He took a deep breath and continued to think: "The only thing we need to consider is when the Buddhist sect will take action, or simply use the Journey to the West to change the trend of respecting Taoism and despising Buddhism in Chechi Kingdom. If it is the latter, then Chechi Kingdom still has more than ten years to prepare."

Thinking of this, Lin Nan felt a little relieved: "If I have this much time, it will be enough for me to cultivate to another level."

However, he did not stop thinking about it, but continued to ponder another question: "What is the connection between the real world and this Journey to the West world? I brought the 'Yangping Zhidu Gongyin' and the 'Sanwu Zhanxie Xixiong Sword' from the modern world, so do these two magic weapons also exist in this world? If I have the opportunity to go to the East in the future, I can verify it myself." (End of this chapter)
