Conferred Gods: Start with a Phoenix clone

Chapter 713 Yunzhongjun

The classification of creatures in the Three Realms is mentioned many times in Journey to the West. Generally speaking, they are the Five Immortals, Five Insects and Four Monkeys. At that time, Buddhism was powerful and Buddha had attained enlightenment, so he was not within the scope of creatures in the Three Realms.

Specifically speaking, they are the five immortals of “Heaven, Earth, Man, Gods and Ghosts”, and the five insects of “Locusts, Scales, Hairs, and Feathers”.

The last "Kun" among the five insects is the insect in the usual sense.

"蠃" insects are also called naked insects. Literally, they mean they are not covered with hair. Frogs, earthworms, and even humans fall into this category.

"Scale" insects refer to all creatures with scales, including fish, lizards, and dragons.

"Mao" insects are animals covered with hair, such as bears, tigers, wolves, and unicorns.

"Feathered" insects refer to all flying birds, and the phoenix falls within this classification.

Isn't that awesome? During this period, the immortal path had been reduced to the point where it was casually commented on and summarized by Buddhists, and the Five Insects were even less worthy of mention. You're already an insect, what else do you want?
Worried about stirring up too much hatred, Buddhists came up with a supplementary explanation. They said that among the five insects, the spirit turtle is the leader of insects, the phoenix is ​​the leader of feathered insects, the qilin is the most respected of hairy insects, the dragon is the king of scaled insects, and the human race is the most spiritual of insects. Humans are the most powerful of all insects and the most powerful of all things, so they are called the most intelligent of all things.

Even with this additional explanation, the Buddhist classification can still be said to be quite arrogant and full of fatherly flavor. It divides the creatures of the three realms into ten categories as if it were a superior position and it points fingers at the world. Dragons, phoenixes, and unicorns are among them. Even the human race with declining luck is classified as a "loser".

During the time of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, ask Medicine Master and Maitreya, would they dare to make such a division? Xuanyuan Sword would kill them!
That is to say, the human race's luck has declined due to years of civil war, and even figures like Emperor Taizong of Tang were dragged to the underworld to be frightened. Only then did the Buddhist sect include the human race in this and made a series of comments.

It is still the Shang and Zhou dynasties, and Western religions are very secretive. There are indeed some sayings about insects with scales, hair, and feathers, but they have always been spread within a very small range of Eastern Shinto.

Yun Zhongjun is the guy who holds some say in this small circle. He calls "bug" and "bug" every day, and he even calls the nine-headed bird a nine-headed bug.

At this time, Deng Chanyu's Longbo fishing rod seemed slow but was actually fast, hooking the leftmost head of the Nine-headed Insect. The hook was extremely sharp and penetrated the Nine-headed Insect's jaw in one go. This guy had great physical strength, and his several-meter-long body struggled hard. The heads that were close to him were even more winding and circling, trying to bite off the fishing line like snake heads.

Long Bo's fishing rod can even catch divine turtles the size of a continent. Although it is not a magic weapon, the material used is tough enough.

The barbed fangs scratched the fishing line, making a harsh friction sound.

The Nine-headed Insect bit twice but couldn't break free. Seeing Deng Chanyu's calm expression and slowly reeling in the line, his body was involuntarily pulled towards a space passage as dark as ink. He didn't know what was waiting for him inside. He didn't want to go in, and he didn't dare to gamble.

The Nine-Headed Insect was filled with anger, and the three heads on its left side opened their mouths at the same time. A heart-pounding tearing sound was heard, and blood and flesh splattered everywhere. He actually bit off his own head that was hooked by the fishhook.

The head, the size of a small house, along with half of its neck, crashed to the ground. The severed head's eyes still gleamed with a murderous glare, as if it wanted to swallow Deng Chanyu and Daji whole. "How cruel!" Daji was shocked. Although there were nine heads, losing one wouldn't seem to be a big deal, but the act of biting off one's own neck so cleanly and decisively was still terrifying. If he was so cruel to himself, how would he treat his enemies?

There are also ruthless people in the Wu clan, such as Xing Tian, ​​but Xing Tian was beheaded by Huangdi, and no one said that he chopped off his own head. This kind of thing sounds terrifying.

The Nine-Headed Insect is different from poisonous insects such as the Blood-Winged Black Mosquito and the Six-Winged Golden Cicada. It has a huge body and good talents and magical powers. The only problem is that it has been practicing for too short a time. At most, it has only been practicing for a thousand years.

Anyone who has achieved consciousness and dissolved their transverse bones has generally practiced for hundreds of years. As the Nine-Tailed Fox Spirit shows, a thousand years of practice is far too insignificant.

As soon as the Nine-Headed Insect was out of control, it flapped its wings and flew high into the sky. The flesh and blood at its broken neck kept wriggling, and the bleeding soon stopped, forming a bulge. With time, it would probably grow another head.

Deng Chanyu sneered and swung the pole again. In front of the Avenue of Space, it doesn’t matter how far you run.

"Stop!" When Jiu Tou Chong was shocked and angry, Yun Zhongjun, whom he relied on as his thigh, finally spoke.

Yun Zhongjun raised his right hand, and a large seal with an ancient shape appeared in his palm. Then he grabbed the seal with his backhand and dropped it heavily.

Deng Chanyu felt that the Yunmeng Lake within the range of his telepathy suddenly became calm. There was not a trace of wind in the lake, and the clouds and mist seemed to have been paused, floating quietly in the air.

Her fish hook and the space channel she secretly opened all stopped at this moment. If she could not still move, she would even think it was a spell like time stopping.

"What a skill!" She shook her wrist and tried to retract the fishhook, but the action that was extremely simple in normal times was now extremely slow. The fishhook and fishing line seemed to have infinite weight and could not be pulled at all. She had to increase her strength again and again.

Yun Zhongjun looked indifferent. At this moment, his body had clearly not changed, but in his mind, it was as if this guy had gathered all the power of the entire Yunmengze in himself, like a giant of immeasurable height.

Deng Chanyu had also experienced this situation with Taoist Moonlight. This was a kind of divine authority within a small range, allowing Yun Zhongjun to mobilize all the power of the mountains, rivers and land within the range.

This guy is not from the Xuanmen, but he is old enough and has lived long enough. At a glance, he seems to have a combat power comparable to that of a Taiyi Golden Immortal. With the blessing of the entire Yunmengze, the fishhook is twisted and deformed, the fishing line is straightened, and the fishing rod makes a dull sound as the two sides wrestle under the heavy load.

"You're just a mad dog!" Deng Chanyu couldn't understand this guy's thinking. The Hydra's provocation was a botched one; even a three-year-old wouldn't fall for it. And you're so outraged? Is the Hydra your father or your mother? Are you so protective?
"Lord God, we are friends of Fairy Yunhua and have just arrived at Yunmengze today. Is there any misunderstanding here? Is it that Nine-Headed Insect who is trying to sow discord?"

Deng Chanyu guessed that Yunhua was Yunxiao's alias here. She came here to practice the Water-walking Divine Light. She realized that the Nine-headed Insect had bad intentions, so she chased after him to resolve the problem. She had no plans to fight a big battle with Yun Zhongjun in advance.

Does the existence of Yunzhongjun have anything to do with her? This kind of matter involving the ministers of the previous dynasty should be the one to worry about, right?
