Chapter 96: The Fate of the Golden Arowana (7,000 words)
In Zhang Ling's view, the green lotus and green vine are absolutely supreme treasures.
To this day, he knew that he still had not been able to unleash the full power of the Green Lotus.
Even so, it made him extremely powerful in combat to a great extent.
Not to mention that there is now an additional green vine and the Zhuxian Sword Formation.
The lively monkey scratched his head and said frankly that the first time he gave the green lotus to Zhang Ling was because he didn't want Zhang Ling to be killed by the Qingqiu Golden Fox.
That day, Zhang Ling was trying to free the mountain god of Yangshan. He wanted to take advantage of the natural terrain of the mountain to gain the upper hand, but he didn't expect that the golden fox would have the magical treasure Yu Linglong. The situation was immediately reversed, and Zhang Ling almost died.
For this reason, the noisy monkey was in great pain and torment at the time, but he felt that there was some guidance from somewhere. Suddenly, he gave the green lotus to Zhang Ling, hoping that it would be of some help to him.
In this way, the noisy monkey escaped from Jieyang Mountain and fled as Zhang Ling wished.
Over the next thousand years, it roamed the world, encountering many adventures, but it also obtained a green vine. The magic of this object was restrained, and it could only be used after it recognized its master.
Unfortunately, the lively monkey only had the chance to encounter treasure, but did not have the ability to recognize its master, so he kept the green vine on his body to use it as a magic treasure to suppress it.
One day, the lively monkey had a sudden inspiration and his mind moved slightly, but he was also guided by the green vine and went straight into the underworld, where he met Zhang Ling.
The lively monkey earnestly recounted what he had seen over the past thousand years, and also said that he had been to a certain place which was a paradise for demons and monsters, where humans seemed to be kept in captivity, just like today's pigs, horses, cattle and sheep, and were also called "human-animals".
Zhang Ling listened carefully and was initially surprised when he heard that it was the green vine that guided the lively monkey straight into the underworld.
Could it be that this thing is destined to be my treasure?
Hearing about the "human and animal" incident, he frowned slightly and asked, "Is this the territory of Uttarakuru?"
Uttarakuru is indeed a paradise for demons. Even immortals and gods rarely set foot in this world and the depths of Yunmengze, and most of them linger in the border areas.
The lively monkey shook his head and said, "It's not Uttarakuru, but a mysterious world, independent of the outside world. Entering it cost me a lot of my lifespan. Fortunately, I had some opportunities there. When I finally returned, I not only broke through the realm and cultivated deeply, but my lifespan also increased instead of decreased."
When Zhang Ling heard that it was a mysterious world, he immediately understood. He had known about it before.
The three thousand great worlds are infinitely mysterious.
"Three thousand" is just an imaginary number, like the grains of sand in the Milky Way, and the actual number is difficult to estimate.
However, it is also a paradise where many saints rush to go and break through the realm of cultivation.
As he was speaking, a golden avenue appeared above Duyang Lake, and the fairy light covered the sky, dyeing it brightly.
A sacred figure appeared above it, with a face as red as a date, a red face and beard, three eyes and frowning eyebrows, and unfathomable divine power. It was Wang Lingguan!
He walked down the golden road, clad in a red robe and golden armor, his toes barely touching the ground, and he wore a pair of golden wind-fire boots. His hands were empty, and the original lacquered golden seal and long golden whip were gone, obviously put away.
Zhang Ling and other saints hurried forward, clasped their fists, and formally paid homage to the Supreme Lord.
When I was in the Netherworld before, I was in too much of a hurry, the atmosphere was strange, and I had too many things on my mind to pay my respects with such undivided attention.
If it weren't for Wang Lingguan, Zhang Ling and others would probably have found it difficult to escape from the underworld.
"Zhang Ling, come here!" Wang Lingguan indicated that he had something to say.
So, Zhang Ling came before this Heavenly Lord and they had a brief conversation with him.
The other gods did not listen and lived in peace.
I don't know what they were talking about, but Wang Lingguan suddenly laughed out loud towards the sky with a happy expression, showing that he had a cheerful personality and was not bound by convention.
Not long after, Wang Lingguan left first, walking on the golden avenue straight into the sky.
No one knew what Zhang Ling and Wang Lingguan talked about, but they thought from their expressions that they were having a very pleasant conversation.
Soon the God of Time was also preparing to say goodbye: "The Trial of the Three Courts is about to begin, and I need to go find Wang Hansan. Things are complicated, and we will meet again if we are destined to!"
Zhang Ling exchanged a few pleasantries with him, thanked him for his timely assistance, then saluted and said goodbye, watching this old god on duty get on the auspicious cloud and disappear at the end of the sky.
After thinking for a moment, he gently waved his sleeves in the air, and immediately cracks like rippling water appeared out of thin air. Two slender white fingers pinched a piece of paper cutting and put it into his sleeves.
After Wang Lingguan and the God of Time left, the Old Dragon King of the East China Sea came to Zhang Ling and said, "During this three-court trial, the Mountain and Water Department should be personally dispatched to conduct a thorough investigation of the Nanjiang River and Duyang Lake."
After saying that, he gave Ao Xin some instructions, asking him to return to Jinghe as soon as possible to take up his post.
After two or three breaths, the Dragon King of the East China Sea transformed into a real dragon and soared into the sky. Suddenly, the clouds gathered and the faint sound of a dragon's roar could be heard.
"Brother Zhang, I'm leaving too!"
Soon, a white dragon flew into the sky, circling its body, and said to the bottom of Duyang Lake: "Brother Zhang, see you later!"
Zhang Ling clasped his fists and said, "See you later." He said goodbye and looked forward to seeing him again next time.
Seeing the gods leave, the lively monkey scratched the back of his head and said, "Zhang Ling, should I leave too?"
Zhang Ling shook his head and said with a smile, "They all have important duties to attend to, so naturally they can't stay for long. You have some free time, so why are you in such a hurry? We haven't seen each other for a thousand years, so we should get together."
After thinking for a while, he added, "I still remember that you love the prosperity of the world, but you also love delicious food. This time, I will personally cook for you to welcome you."
When the lively monkey heard that there was delicious food, his eyes suddenly lit up like fire and he was so happy that he jumped up and down.
This happened to be by the Duyang Lake. Zhang Ling could have caught some fish, shrimps and crabs from the lake, but he did not do so.
