Journey to the West: The Eighty-One Tribulations of Being Hairless

Xuanming Gonghua Tian!

As a relatively inconspicuous heaven among the thirty-six heavens, it is itself a vast world!

Of course, it is not the complete Great Thousand World, because the world authority of Xuanming Gonghua Heaven belongs to the Pangu Primordial Great World. In fact, the innate spiritual energy of this Heaven is not very rich!

In the entire universe, there are only eight innate spiritual veins!

These innate spiritual veins are naturally under the control of the Department of Celestial Law Enforcement, and Zhou Yi's Azure Lotus Dao Palace was actually built on a branch of one of these eight innate spiritual veins.

This is considered a perk for employees within the Heavenly Court system!

However, since it is at the end of a small branch of the innate spiritual vein, the innate spiritual energy of the Azure Lotus Dao Palace is not much, and it is mostly immortal spiritual energy.

Today, there are an unusually large number of cultivators coming to Xuanming Gonghua Heaven!

There are even more Taiyi Golden Immortals, Daluo Golden Immortals, and even Quasi-Saint cultivators!

As for the goal, it's very clear: the Primordial Essence Pill refined by Zhou Yi!

Even Yang Jian, who never clocks in at the Heavenly Court, and Zhou Yi's boss, came this time!

However, the immortals' goal was destined to fail!

Two young Taoist disciples emerged from the Azure Lotus Palace!

They looked to be at the level of true immortals. These two Daoist boys, one male and one female, were sent by Nezha!

The boy was a white zealot who had attained enlightenment, while the girl was a five-colored phoenix.

These two young disciples were brought back by Nezha from Nuwa's Heaven. He noticed that Zhou Yi's Qinglian Dao Palace had no one to help him and that he had to do everything himself, so he brought back two young disciples.

The two Daoist boys were originally from the lower realm of Nuwa's world. They were members of the demon race that Nuwa had gathered back then, and the descendants of the Golden Phoenix. Upon hearing of Zhou Yi's name, the two readily agreed!

With two young disciples in hand, Zhou Yi gave them some instructions and then prepared to go into seclusion!

He wanted to take advantage of Nezha's attainment of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm so that he could also achieve the path of the Immortal Golden Immortal!

After all, while the cultivation level of a Celestial Immortal is considered to be in the lower middle class in the Heavenly Court, it is still somewhat weak, even if one has mastered supreme divine powers and Heavenly Dao divine powers.

But if you encounter a Great Immortal, you can only run for your life!

Furthermore, according to the Book of Changes, the great calamity of the Journey to the West in the future will probably be doubled!

After all, with his help, Nezha has now broken through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. If Sun Wukong didn't have the cultivation of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, how could he have caused such a ruckus in the Heavenly Palace!

There will absolutely not be a case of someone barely advancing to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm by consuming Laozi's elixir in the later stages of the Havoc in Heaven!

I reckon the monkey will be a Great Immortal when he returns from Fangcun Immortal Mountain!

Faced with the Monkey King, who was already a Great Immortal in the early stages, causing havoc in the Heavenly Palace, and with Zhou Yi being an enforcer, Yang Jian might not have to come; he would probably be pushed out to be cannon fodder.

Therefore, feeling a sense of crisis, Zhou Yi immediately began to cultivate in seclusion, striving to break through to the Golden Immortal realm in one fell swoop.

Ideally, one should achieve the Taiyi Golden Immortal status before the monkey returns from his apprenticeship, thus gaining the ability to protect oneself.

"The Jade Talisman greets all the venerable immortals. My master is currently in seclusion and is afraid he will not be able to come out to meet you all!"

The two young Taoist priests bowed politely to the visitors and apologized.

"Oh? He's in seclusion? Has Lord Sitian said when he'll emerge?" Yang Jian frowned and asked.

"The master did not say so!"

However, the master's current seclusion is for breaking through to the Immortal Golden Immortal path, which may take several years, or even decades; the timeframe is unpredictable.

"It's a pretty little girl named Jin Fu," she said.

"Ah, the True Lord promised me the Innate Primordial Pill within a year!"

At this moment, an old man's voice came. Everyone looked over and saw that it was an old celestial being. His body was already showing signs of the five signs of decay. If he did not break through soon, he would probably perish from the tribulation of the five signs of decay.

The crowd frowned slightly at this person and stepped back a little.

In fact, from the perspective of the immortals, those who are burdened by their lifespan are considered unlucky and are naturally avoided.

"Fellow Daoist, are you Dan Yuanzi?"

Suddenly, Tong Ziyulu remembered something and looked up at the old man. Upon hearing this, the old man was overjoyed and nodded hurriedly, "Indeed, indeed, it is this humble Taoist. Did the True Lord give any instructions?"

Tong Ziyu nodded.

"The master did indeed give instructions!"

He then took out a small jade bottle from his person. "This is the Innate Primordial Pill that Master instructed me to personally deliver to you, Fellow Daoist. Please take this pill!"

Upon hearing this, Dan Yuanzi hurried over, as if afraid that if he was a step too slow, the pill would be snatched away by someone else, and took the small jade bottle.

All the immortals stared wide-eyed at the small jade bottle in Dan Yuanzi's hand!

But then they glanced at Yang Jian. If Yang Jian hadn't been there, they would have forcibly taken it.

After all, how many people can resist something that can make them a born demon god?

The most important thing is that they know about Dan Yuanzi!

Being a rogue cultivator, without a position in the Heavenly Court or the protection of a sect, such a rogue cultivator is far too easy to deal with; let alone forcibly seizing the treasure.

Simply by using threats and promises to his descendants, he was able to give up this precious elixir.

pity......

With the God of Justice, Yang Jian, here, they couldn't very well make a move under his nose.

Otherwise, it would be too disrespectful to Yang Jian. Disrespecting Yang Jian is disrespecting his uncle, the Jade Emperor, the Chan Sect, and the Sage Yuanshi Tianzun.

Disrespecting the Primordial Celestial Lord...

Well......!

How is this any different from courting death?

But some people still stepped forward!

He was an exceptionally handsome young man, dressed in a white brocade robe, his long black hair flowing freely, exuding an air of nobility and otherworldly elegance.

"Fellow Daoist Dan Yuanzi, if you are willing to part with this pill, I can offer a low-grade acquired spiritual treasure, a sixth-order immortal pill, the Longevity Golden Pill, and a low-grade acquired spiritual root in exchange."

His words were full of confidence and disdain for Dan Yuanzi!

That person was a late-stage Taiyi Golden Immortal cultivator!

As a late-stage Taiyi Golden Immortal cultivator, if he could achieve the Innate Demon God Body and become a Great Luo Daoist in the future, he might be able to upgrade the Great Dao Heavenly Flower to a superior grade of the seventh rank or above.

Even the possibility of reaching the ninth-grade avenue of heaven is not out of the question.

If one could achieve the Ninth Rank Heavenly Flower... that would be a Primordial Chaos level!

"A cultivator from the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Clan?"

Yang Jian, a mere Taiyi Golden Immortal, could not conceal any information. Upon hearing Yang Jian's murmur, the man immediately bowed, "This humble Daoist, Bai Yan of the Heavenly Fox Clan from Qingqiu Mountain, pays respects to the True Lord!"

He had reason to be proud of Dan Yuanzi, but he dared not show the slightest disrespect to Yang Jian.

Yang Jian nodded!

"I do not wish for anything to violate the Heavenly Laws in the Heavenly Court. If I, the True Lord, discover that someone is using their cultivation to wreak havoc in the Heavenly Court, I will absolutely not be lenient!"

Regardless of your faction or whether you have a Grand Luo Golden Immortal or Quasi-Saint backing you!

Scanning the surrounding immortals, Yang Jian's voice was full of majesty, brooking no resistance from anyone. Even Chang'e in the crowd was attracted by Yang Jian's righteous and awe-inspiring demeanor.

His eyes sparkled with extraordinary light.

"I used to think Yang Jian was just someone who got in through connections, but now it seems he has his own principles..."

"No, no, Your Excellency is too kind. We Heavenly Court cultivators must abide by the laws of Heaven. Anyone who dares to challenge the Heavenly Laws will not be spared, even without Your Excellency's intervention!"

Stunned by Yang Jian's words, the young Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox cultivator gave an awkward smile and quickly expressed his opinion...

.......

Meanwhile, Zhou Yi, inside the Azure Lotus Palace, was completely unaware of the fascinating events unfolding outside...
