Chat group: Among all the heavens, I am the Bull Demon King!

Chapter 31: The Six Ding and Six Jia, the Five Directions Jiedi, and the Four Seasons Gongcao!

Showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing!

Niu Jun looked at Cthulhu Ying Zheng, who was acting like a helpful person in the chat group, and sneered inwardly.

Who was Qin Shi Huang, Ying Zheng?

As the saying goes: The King of Qin swept across the six kingdoms, his tiger-like gaze so majestic! He brandished his sword, parting the floating clouds, and all the feudal lords came to the west. His clear judgment was divinely inspired, his grand strategy surpassing all others. He gathered his troops to cast bronze statues, and the Hangu Pass opened to the east. His achievements were commemorated at Kuaiji Ridge, and he gazed upon Langya Terrace…

This domineering and unparalleled ruler is now acting like a helpful person, patiently explaining the chat group to the Feathered Emperor, and placing himself in a very humble position, intentionally or unintentionally downplaying the image of the Cthulhu gods.

It would be strange if there weren't problems here.

However, Niu Jun was not one to meddle in other people's business.

Not to mention that he, Lu Sheng, and Klein had already reached an agreement to use the Cthulhu Outer God to test the depths of the Shrouding the Heavens world.

Even if this hadn't happened, he wouldn't have reminded Emperor Yuhua.

What about the Feathered Emperor?

So what if it's a world of "Covering the Sky"?
It has nothing to do with him.

Of course, if the Emperor of Feathered Ascension in Shrouding the Heavens were replaced by the Emperor of Wushi in Shrouding the Heavens, the Ruthless Emperor in Shrouding the Heavens, or Ye Fan in Shrouding the Heavens, then it would be a different story.

The reason.

Or perhaps it's because in Niu Jun's eyes, the Feathered Emperor wasn't very valuable, not worth his investment, and he didn't think the Feathered Emperor could help him in any way.

If that's the case, why meddle in other people's business?

Not to mention Niu Jun, who had read the original novel "Covering the Sky," did not have a good impression of the Feathered Emperor and the Feathered Divine Dynasty he founded. In fact, the Feathered Emperor himself was not a human emperor.

This way.

Niu Jun had even less reason to remind this guy.

He felt that Lu Sheng and Klein were unwilling to remind the Feathered Emperor for several reasons.

So Niu Jun only glanced at the chat messages in the chat group before turning his attention back to the Five Elements Mountain outside the Mandala Garland Miniature Grotto.

I learned this from Venerable Jin Hai's memories.

Whether it was Buddhism, Heaven, or Taoism, they all valued Sun Wukong to the extreme.

In particular, the Buddhist Lingshan Mountain has arranged for Arhats such as the Deer-Riding Arhat and the Golden Sea Venerable to guard the temple outside the Five Elements Mountain Small World.

Inside the Five Elements Mountain miniature world, there are also guardian deities on duty.

Of course, to prevent Buddhism from secretly harming Sun Wukong, Taoism and the Heavenly Court also arranged guardian deities in the Five Elements Mountain mini-world.

These guardian deities are none other than the renowned Five Directions Protectors, the Four Duty Officers, and the Six Ding and Six Jia Gods of the Three Realms.

Among them, the Five Directions Protectors are powerful deities who guard the five directions of the Buddhist community of Lingshan: the Golden-Headed Protector, the Silver-Headed Protector, the Para-Prosperous Protector, and the Maha Protector.

The Four Duty Officers are deities in Heaven who oversee the Three Realms. They are Li Bing, the Duty Officer for the Year; Huang Chengyi, the Duty Officer for the Month; Zhou Deng, the Duty Officer for the Day; and Liu Hong, the Duty Officer for the Hour. They are mainly responsible for recording the good and evil deeds of mortals and assisting in subduing demons and monsters.

Finally, there are the Six Ding and Six Jia guardian deities of Taoism.

The Six Ding and Six Jia guardian deities are the twelve deities of the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches in Taoism.

Among them, Dingmao, Dingsi, Dingwei, Dingyou, Dinghai, and Dingchou are Yin gods, known as the Six Ding. Since women are Yin, the Six Ding are also called Yin Goddesses Jade Maidens.

There is a Yin Goddess Jade Maiden, and the corresponding Yang Goddess Jade Male is Jiazi, Jiaxu, Jiashen, Jiawu, Jiachen, and Jiayin, collectively known as the Six Jia.

The Shangqing Lingbao Dafu states: "Dingchou prolongs my life, Dinghai restrains my soul, Dingyou controls my spirit, Dingwei averts my disaster, Dingsi saves me from danger, Dingmao saves me from calamity; Jiazi protects my body, Jiaxu preserves my form, Jiashen strengthens my life, Jiawu guards my soul, Jiachen suppresses my spirit, and Jiayin nurtures my true nature." Because they are guardian deities of Taoism, the Six Ding and Six Jia gods are frequently summoned by Taoist priests to subdue ghosts and spirits.

Of course, whether it is the Five Directions Exorcists, the Four Duty Officers, or the Six Ding and Six Jia, their fame far exceeds their strength, and their cultivation level is mostly at the Xuanxian realm.

This is not hard to understand.

If these guardian deities were truly powerful and of noble status, they wouldn't be so easily summoned by mortal cultivators.

In the original Journey to the West.

The guardian deities, including the Six Ding and Six Jia, the Five Directions Jiedi, and the Four Duty Officers, not only served as jailers guarding Sun Wukong for five hundred years, but also protected Tang Sanzang's safety during the journey to the West and helped the four-person team to subdue demons and monsters.

Niu Jun recalled the introductions to the guardian deities such as the Six Ding and Six Jia, the Five Directions Jiedi, and the Four Duty Officers from his previous life and memories.

On the other hand, they were pondering which guardian deity to target.

After all, although these guardian deities are not very strong, the laws they cultivate are not simple, and most of them are related to time and space.

The twenty-one guardian deities working together are enough to seal off the space-time of the Five Elements Mountain small world. Any slight disturbance will be detected by these guardian deities.

The only good news is.

Currently, the only guardian deities guarding the Five Elements Mountain Minor World are the Five Directions Protector Deities of the Buddhist Ling Mountain, who are in their true forms residing in the Five Elements Mountain Minor World.

The Taoist Six Ding and Six Jia guardian deities, as well as the Heavenly Court's Four Duty Officers guardian deities, all left behind only a single Dharma body to guard them.

This gave Niu Jun an opportunity to fish in troubled waters.

"Let's choose Mahagate!"

Niu Jun left the Mandala Garbage Miniature Grotto-Heaven and looked at the Five Elements Mountain, which was shining brightly in the distance. His gaze then turned to Maha Jiedi, the head of the Five Directions Jiedi.

Maha is an important concept in Buddhism, its basic meaning being "great," specifically manifested as "enormous, great, endless, empty, and supreme!"

The "greatness" here does not refer to size in a physical sense, but is usually used to describe a broad mind, emphasizing the emptiness of inherent nature, the absence of stagnation in the mind, and the inclusion of all phenomena, which is a manifestation of great wisdom.

Therefore, among the Five Directional Protectors, Mahagate is the head, and Mahagate is also the most powerful and wise among the Five Directional Protectors.

Niu Jun chose to take action against Maha Jiedi.

Besides the fact that Maha Jiedi is the head of the Five Directions Jiedi and has great power in the Five Elements Mountain Small World, allowing him to closely comprehend the Buddha's six-syllable mantra seal.

The most important point is that he was wary of Mahāgater, fearing that Mahāgater would discover his meditation on the Buddha's seal.

In that case, it would be better to take direct action against Mahagate.

He directly suppressed Mahāgatedī, and then, through the Seventy-Two Transformations of the Earthly Fiends, transformed himself into the appearance of Mahāgatedī, thus deceiving the heavens and openly comprehending the Buddha's seal.

"Perfect timing to test the effectiveness of mystical techniques in the Journey to the West world!"

Niu Jun looked at the Mahāgatedī hidden above the Five Elements Mountain and a strange smile appeared on his face.

Previously, if he wanted to take down Maha Jiedi under the supervision of many guardian deities such as the Six Ding and Six Jia, the Five Directions Jiedi, and the Four Seasons Gongcao, he would have had to plan carefully, and even a slight mistake would have been noticed by these guardian deities.

However, after analyzing the power of the source fortress of the mysterious world and successfully mastering the power of many laws and rules of the mysterious world, Niu Jun had a great deal of confidence.

True strength lies not in the size of one's power.

Rather, it lies in the unknown.
