I am a fairy in Journey to the West

The appearance of the Five Elements in the world is different from the appearance of Pangu and the appearance of wind and thunder, simply because there is no central Great Thousand World within the appearance of the Five Elements.

The Five Elements have manifested in the world, dividing all realms into five great immortal domains, ruled by the 'Five Elements Immortal Palaces'.

The Wood Element Immortal Mansion rules over the 'Azure Wood Immortal Realm', the Fire Element Immortal Mansion rules over the 'Crimson Fire Immortal Realm', the Earth Element Immortal Mansion rules over the 'Yellow Earth Immortal Realm', the Metal Element Immortal Mansion rules over the 'Platinum Immortal Realm', and the Water Element Immortal Mansion rules over the 'Mysterious Water Immortal Realm'.

However, the realm where the five immortal palaces are located was forged by the Dao Ancestor of each realm using the Five Elements Laws and immense power. Although it does not have the vast and magnificent territory and prosperous spiritual energy of the Great Thousand World, the solidity of its realm is in no way inferior to that of the Great Thousand World.

Platinum Immortal Realm, Golden Path Immortal Mansion, Golden Ancestor Palace, Yuanfeng Hall.

Jin Hua Daojun sat on the throne and looked at Jin Xu Daojun above him. "The Pangu Heavenly Dao has silently built the Measuring Heaven Divine Bridge to my Five Elements Manifestation World. We do not know where it will land when it enters the world. Our Platinum Immortal Realm should make preparations as soon as possible."

Jin Yuan Daojun nodded and said, "Right now, Pangu Heavenly Dao has already come knocking on our door, and our Five Elements Manifestation suffered heavy losses while attacking the Wind and Thunder Manifestation. So no matter which Immortal Realm the Measuring Heaven Divine Bridge lands in, it is always right to prepare early."

Jinxu Daojun's gaze swept over everyone in the hall, and then he asked, "Why isn't Jinliu Daojun here?"

Jin Guang Daojun said, "Jin Biao, the son of Jin Liu Daojun, is getting married to the daughter of Tu Long Daojun. It is currently the wedding day, so Jin Liu Daojun did not come."

"Oh." Daoist Jinxu nodded. "I remember now. Daoist Jinliu mentioned it to me before."

At this point, Daoist Jinxu said to Daoist Jinhua, Daoist Jinguang, Daoist Jinyuan, and Daoist Jintai, "Then let's first arrange the defense of the Immortal Realm, and then go to Daoist Jinliu's residence as soon as possible to celebrate the wedding."

The four Dao Lords nodded and smiled, saying, "Good."

Therefore, Daoist Jinxu and the four Daoists issued a decree ordering all immortal sects to strengthen their defenses and report any abnormalities to the Immortal Palace immediately.

At the same time, the Golden Immortal Palace allocated essential resources for defense to the nine hundred minor worlds within the Platinum Immortal Domain and dispatched fifty celestial ships to transport supplies to those nine hundred worlds.

After arranging all this, the five Dao Lords left the Golden Ancestor Palace together and went to the Golden Flow Dao Lord's residence for a banquet.

At the same time, in a minor world called 'Lingbai Realm' in the northwest of the Platinum Immortal Domain, an extremely violent tremor suddenly occurred.

The fierce and overwhelming earthquake directly affected the entire Spirit Cypress Realm, causing panic among all living beings within it.

After the tremors ended, the 'Golden Immortal Sect' that ruled the Spirit Cypress Realm immediately reacted.

Jinbie Immortal Sect is a superior immortal sect. It is named "Jinbie Immortal Sect" because its family nameplate contains the character "Bie".

Immediately after the earth-shattering earthquake ended, the Immortal Master of the Golden Immortal Sect, 'Jin Biehan', ordered all the branch altars in various places to investigate the cause of the earthquake.

At the same time, Jin Biehan also sent his disciples to investigate various parts of the Lingbai Realm. The heavens and earth could not shake for no reason; such an anomaly was usually a harbinger of something big.

Just as the entire Lingbai Realm was in an uproar and the Jinbie Immortal Sect was investigating everywhere, a celestial gate swiftly entered this space-time above the sea to the north of the Lingbai Realm, and then materialized from nothingness, stretching across the vast sea.

At the same time, a radiant 'Haotian Banner' appeared in the Heavenly Gate, followed by a group of majestic generals, each over ten feet tall, clad in full armor, carrying the Haotian Banner as they flew out of the Heavenly Gate.

Then three more divine lights flew out from the Heavenly Gate. The leader was a slender, beautiful, and majestic immortal dressed in a lotus-green robe. It was none other than Nezha, the 'True Lord of the Three Altars and Seas, Pure and Beautiful Protector of the Teachings'.

After Nezha emerged, he glanced around and saw only the vast ocean, with nowhere to stand.

A moment later, two more figures appeared behind Nezha, one fierce and tall, the other tall and slender, none other than the Zhen'e Grand Commandant Tiger Vanguard and the Zhechong Grand Commandant Chi Ling.

After taking in their surroundings, Tiger Vanguard said with some surprise, "The Heavenly Gate of the Measuring Heaven Divine Bridge is not located outside the boundary, but within a small world. It seems we are quite lucky."

Chi Ling said, "Unfortunately, we have no foothold on the sea. We can only gather our army first and then set up camp on land."

Hearing this, Nezha chuckled and said, "Why bother with all that?"

Chi Ling was somewhat surprised to hear this and looked at Nezha.

With a leap, Nezha transformed into a beam of divine light and vanished into the sky, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Tiger Vanguard looked in the direction Nezha disappeared and asked with some confusion, "What did he go to do?"

Chi Ling shrugged and said, "How would I know?"

Tiger Vanguard asked, "Then let's gather the Heavenly Army first and wait for him to return."

Chi Ling had no objection, so the two of them issued an order to the Heavenly Gate of the Heavenly God Bridge. Subsequently, three teams of divine generals escorted the 'Breakthrough Flag', 'Evil-Suppressing Flag', and 'Azure Lotus Flag' out of the Heavenly Gate.

Afterwards, the three battalions of generals—Zhechong Camp, Bi'ou Camp, and Zhen'e Camp—emerged from the Heavenly Gate in a grand procession and assembled in front of their respective military flags.

As the three battalions of the Heavenly Army completed their assembly, the sea below suddenly began to tremble violently, followed by churning and towering waves.

Chi Ling and Tiger Vanguard immediately looked in the direction of the rising waves, and then they saw a dazzling celestial light, radiating an extremely powerful and domineering aura, flying rapidly toward them.

“It is Grand Commandant Bi’ou,” Tiger Vanguard said first.

Chi Ling nodded, then said to the generals of the Zhechong Camp, "It is Grand Commandant Bi'ou who has arrived. Everyone, don't be nervous."

As soon as the two finished speaking, the tense expressions of the generals of the Zhen'e Camp and Zhechong Camp immediately eased and they relaxed.

As for the generals of the Green Lotus Camp, they were naturally not nervous, as they recognized the aura of their own Grand Commandant.

As the waves rose higher and the seawater churned more violently, the celestial light on the horizon became increasingly apparent.

Then the three battalions of heavenly soldiers saw Nezha radiating divine light, covering the sky and the earth, using his powerful magic to drive twenty-eight islands of varying sizes to converge upon him.

Nezha drove the twenty-eight islands to the foot of the Heavenly Gate, and then used his magic to forcibly merge them together, thus creating a small landmass that stretched eight thousand miles east to west and six thousand miles north to south below the Heavenly Gate.

Seeing this, Chi Ling and Tiger Vanguard looked at each other in bewilderment. At this moment, Nezha flew forward and said, "Alright, the land and earth are ready. Now this is where we should stand."

After saying this, Nezha waved his hand and ordered his 50,000 generals in the Green Lotus Camp: "All soldiers of the Green Lotus Camp, listen to my command and immediately set up camp on the land below. Do not fail to do so."

The two deputy generals of the Jade Lotus Camp, Ao Moang and Huanglong Zhenren, immediately bowed and accepted the order. Then, they led 50,000 Jade Lotus Camp generals down from the clouds and set up camp on the land below.

Upon seeing this, Chi Ling and Tiger Vanguard also issued orders, commanding the 50,000 generals of the Zhen'e Camp and the 50,000 generals of the Zhechong Camp to set up camp on the land below.

At the same time, a tsunami hundreds of feet high surged onto the land of Lingbai Realm from 50,000 miles away, instantly annihilating all living beings on hundreds of thousands of miles of land.

Such a commotion naturally could not be kept secret from the Jinbiexian Sect. Soon, Jinbiehan summoned three thousand immortal cultivators and ordered Jinbiegen, the deputy immortal master of the Jinbiexian Sect, to come and investigate the flooding in the North Sea.

Half a month has passed, and the cause of the previous earthquake has not yet been found. Now the North Sea is flooding, which makes Jin Biehan realize that something must have happened in the North Sea.

While sending Jin Biegen to lead three thousand immortal cultivators to the North Sea, Jin Biehan also issued an immortal decree to recruit a large number of immortal cultivators throughout the Lingbai Realm.

Ten days later, Jin Biehan recruited another seven thousand immortal cultivators in the Lingbai Realm, but just as these seven thousand immortal cultivators were assembled, bad news came back from the North Sea.

Jin Bielu, disheveled and in a sorry state, landed outside the Jin Biexian Gate. He looked up at the immortal cultivators guarding the gate and said, "Urgent report from the North Sea! I need to see the Immortal Master!"

When Jin Bielu led the North to the Pine and Cypress Hall, Jin Biehan was discussing matters with Jin Bieji, another deputy immortal master of the Jin Bie Immortal Sect.

When Jin Biehan and Jin Bieji saw Jin Bielu in such a disheveled state, both of them were shocked. Jin Bieji hurriedly asked, "Bielu? What happened to you? Where is Vice Immortal Master Biegen?"

Tears instantly streamed down Jin Bielu's face as he cried, "Immortal Lord, Vice Immortal Lord, Vice Immortal Lord Biegen is dead."

"What?!" Jin Biehan and Jin Bieji were shocked and immediately stood up to ask, "What happened?"

Jin Bielu cried and bowed, saying, "Deputy Immortal Master Biegen led us to the North Sea. As we ventured deeper into the sea, we discovered that a continent had appeared in the center of the North Sea at some unknown time, and above that continent was a Heavenly Gate."     At this point, Jin Bielu said with a look of fear, "Vice Immortal Master Biegen said that was the Heavenly Gate of the Measuring Heaven Divine Bridge. We were about to go closer to take a closer look when a group of mysterious people suddenly rushed out from below the Heavenly Gate. In just one exchange, they killed Vice Immortal Master Biegen. All three thousand of us immortal cultivators were wiped out in an instant. Only I escaped back!"

Jin Biehan and Jin Bieji were shocked upon hearing this. "The Heavenly Gate of the Measuring Heaven Divine Bridge?!" Jin Bieji's voice was distorted. "The Measuring Heaven Divine Bridge of Pangu's Heavenly Dao leads to my Lingbai Realm?"

Jin Biehan, disregarding his fear and drenched in sweat, hurriedly said, "Quickly, report to the Immortal Abode immediately!"

But as soon as Jin Biehan finished speaking, the divine flag of the Bi'ou Camp suddenly appeared above the Jin Biexian Gate. As soon as the divine flag was unfurled, Vice General Ao Moang immediately led a thousand Bi'ou Divine Generals to attack.

The immortal cultivators in the Golden Immortal Sect were unable to put up any effective resistance. The thousand divine generals of the Green Lotus Camp wiped out all the immortal cultivators in the Golden Immortal Sect in less than a hundred breaths.

Meanwhile, Vice General Ao Moang rushed directly into the Pine and Cypress Hall. Jin Biehan and Jin Bieji jumped up immediately. Jin Bielu, upon seeing Ao Moang, exclaimed in terror, "It's them! This is the one who killed Vice Immortal Master Biegen!"

Upon seeing Jin Bielu, Ao Moang hurled his three-edged mace, smashing Jin Bielu into dust.

Inside the hall, there were more than ten other immortal cultivators who drew their weapons and rushed forward. However, Ao Moang simply clapped his hands together, and instantly more than a dozen beams of immortal light shot out, directly blasting the dozen or so immortal cultivators and the entire Pine and Cypress Hall to smithereens.

Kim Byeolhan and Kim Byeolji flew into the sky covered in blood, only to run into a divine general.

Jin Bieji raised his hand and unleashed a golden light, but the Eight Treasures Armor on the divine general activated 'evasion'. Then, the Seven Treasures Blade 'sure to hit' slashed down, and Jin Bieji died on the spot.

Jin Biehan was terrified at the sight and, without hesitation, used his escape technique to flee into the sky.

But Ao Moang had already set his sights on him. In an instant, the three-edged mace flashed with cold light and caught up. It struck Jin Biehan on the head. Before Jin Biehan could even scream, his head was smashed, leaving only a headless corpse that swayed and fell to the ground.

After taking control of the Golden Immortal Gate, Ao Moang immediately sent a message to Nezha. However, since the 'Heavenly Profound Sub-Battle' was not yet fully assembled, they could only communicate via message.

Just as Ao Moang was taking control of the Jinbie Immortal Gate, the deputy general of the Zhechong Camp, Guiling Shengmu, had already led ten thousand divine generals to seal off the entire Lingbai Realm.

The seven thousand immortal cultivators previously recruited by the Golden Immortal Sect were stationed at the foot of the mountain where the Golden Immortal Sect was located. They had already noticed the changes that had occurred at the Golden Immortal Sect, so they immediately rushed to provide support.

Upon seeing seven thousand immortal cultivators descending from the mountain, Ao Moang immediately ordered the one thousand divine generals present to exterminate them.

The disparity between a thousand men and seven thousand men seems vast, but a thousand divine generals equipped with the Eight Treasures Armor and the Seven Treasures Sword are enough to fight ten men each, making them invincible.

Just a stick of incense later, the seven thousand immortal cultivators were slaughtered without a scratch by the one thousand divine generals. The remaining immortal cultivators lost their fighting spirit and fled in panic. Some fled in all directions within the realm, while others fled outside the realm.

Those who fled to the outer boundary soon encountered the Zhechong Camp generals who were sealing off the Lingbai Realm, and without exception, they were all killed.

Those who fled to the four corners of the territory were subsequently slaughtered by the Zhen'e Camp.

The three camps took control of the entire Lingbai Realm in just one month and purged all the immortal cultivators in the realm.

However, unlike the Five Elements Immortals who went on a killing spree and destroyed everything when the Wind and Thunder appeared, the Three Camps only wiped out all the immortals in the realm and then stopped, without taking any further action against the mortals.

However, after the three major camps took control of the Lingbai Realm, they levied all the resources within the Lingbai Realm and sent them to the North Sea, where they built three immortal cities.

These three immortal cities are all centered around the Grand Commandant's Mansion, surrounded by 50,000 residences arranged in a neat and uniform manner. Each residence is the dwelling of a divine general, complete with all kinds of rooms.

The reason for this arrangement is that each residence within each immortal city is itself a base for an array.

The immortal city formed by combining these 50,000 array bases is a massive 'Ten Thousand Immortals Array'.

The three immortal cities are the three Myriad Immortal Formations, and the three major camps reside within these Myriad Immortal Formation immortal cities.

At the same time, the three major camps built array altars in various parts of Lingbai Realm, mobilized the earth's veins, and set up the 'Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Array' above Lingbai Realm to protect and seal it off.

After doing all this, Nezha, Tiger Vanguard, and Chi Ling gathered together and began to discuss using the Lingbai Realm as their base to launch an attack on the entire Five Elements Realm.

However, a clear direction and plan are needed for the attack, because each of the three battalions has 50,000 men, totaling 150,000 men, which is simply not enough to cover such a vast area of ​​the world.

“We cannot launch a dispersed attack before reinforcements from Tian Shu Province arrive,” Tiger Vanguard said. “According to the previous plan, we should concentrate our forces to attack, and occupy each realm as we conquer it.”

Chi Ling replied, "If we conquer a realm and then occupy it, it's no different from a scattered attack. We would have to assign divine generals to guard each realm we conquer, and we don't have that many people."

Nezha said, "I think we should do it this way: destroy each realm we conquer, so we won't have to divide our troops to defend it."

Tiger Vanguard said, "This would be too bloody and might offend the natural order."

Nezha glanced at Tiger Vanguard and then said, "What are you afraid of? It only harms the harmony of the Five Elements Heavenly Dao, not the harmony of the Pangu Heavenly Dao."

Tiger Vanguard said, "Of course I know that. I'm not a pushover. I just think that these beings of the Five Elements have their own uses. It would be a waste to simply exterminate them."

Nezha didn't refute this, but instead turned his gaze to Tiger Vanguard together with Chi Ling, "So what good idea do you have?"

Tiger Vanguard pondered for a moment, then said, "After the cleanup over the past few months, it is certain that all the creatures in this Spirit Cypress Realm are nurtured by the metal element. If we can make good use of it, wouldn't we have an inexhaustible source of metal element power?"

Upon hearing this, Chi Ling immediately blurted out, "Pure Yuan Refined Gold!"

Nezha's eyes lit up as well. The so-called "pure primordial gold" is a precious material between heaven and earth. This gold is extremely yang, extremely strong and extremely pure. It is a top-grade material for refining great treasures and is extremely sturdy.

For example, the Heavenly Court's "Golden Ships and Heavenly Boats" are made of "Pure Primordial Gold" and can traverse the void and the heavens.

However, this item is precious because it is hard to obtain. It does not grow in the world and can only be extracted and refined by immortal cultivators who cultivate the metal element magic. This process is extremely time-consuming and laborious.

Upon hearing Tiger Vanguard's words, Nezha immediately understood, "Collect 'Pure Essence Gold' from the Lingbai Realm, stipulating that each family must pay one tael of Pure Essence Gold annually."

Chi Ling smiled and said, "I think it's feasible." But then she added, "What if they refuse to hand over the pure primordial gold, or can't produce it?"

Tiger Vanguard said, "Anyone who refuses to hand over the Pure Yuan Refined Gold will have their entire family executed. Anyone who fails to hand over the Pure Yuan Refined Gold by the due date will have one person from their family executed."

Nezha immediately nodded and said, "I agree."

After listening, Akaya nodded and said, "I agree too."

Therefore, the three Grand Commandant's Offices of Bi'ou, Zhechong, and Zhen'e simultaneously issued a decree to all living beings in the Lingbai Realm, requiring all living beings in the Lingbai Realm to pay one tael of Pure Yuan Essence Gold to the Tian Shu Capital Province every year, based on their 'family' units.

Anyone who refuses to hand over the gold will have their entire family executed. If the pure gold cannot be handed over by the due date, one person from their family will be executed.

This decree immediately provoked opposition from many beings in the Spirit Cypress Realm, and a massive movement against the decree quickly swept through the realm.

Previously, the three major camps only killed all the immortals in the Lingbai Realm, leaving the mortal cultivators behind. Therefore, the beings in the Lingbai Realm had a misconception that the people of Pangu Heavenly Dao would not dare to exterminate them.

Therefore, as soon as this decree was issued, some people with ulterior motives immediately started stirring up a large-scale movement against the decree.

However, they were overthinking it. The three battalions weren't afraid to kill, but rather they didn't want to waste their lives.

But now that you dare to oppose the decrees of the three Grand Commandant's Offices, there's nothing more to say.

Soon, the three Grand Commandant's Offices issued an order that all living beings who opposed the levy of 'Pure Yuan Refined Gold' would be exterminated.

So the three Grand Marshals each dispatched a thousand divine generals to begin purging all the creatures of the Spirit Cypress Realm who opposed the decree to levy taxes. At this point, those opposing creatures finally learned to be afraid. They tried to beg for mercy and hide, but to no avail.

The orders from the three Grand Commandant's offices were simple: either accept the decree or have your entire clan exterminated; there was absolutely no room for negotiation! (End of Chapter)
