Yang Jian waved his hand, and auspicious clouds spread out from under everyone's feet.

"Go meet them." He said lightly.

"Master, I'll go first." said Xiaotian Dog.

Its strength increased dramatically, and it felt that those heavenly soldiers and generals were rubbish, and it was eager to show off.

Seeing Yang Jian nod, it barked, transformed into a black dog, leaped into the air, and disappeared in an instant.

The Meishan brothers and others were hesitant to speak.

They all knew the strength of Roaring Sky Dog.

It would be fine if this guy bullied ordinary minor gods and fairies by taking advantage of his power, but those heavenly soldiers and generals were obviously here to hold him accountable and would not give them any face.

Then, everyone heard the roar that almost shook the sky.

Looking up, everyone saw a black dog floating in the air like a giant, gnawing at a giant tower.

Yang Jian's expression was a little surprised, but he soon became relieved and looked at the heavenly soldiers and generals in the other direction.

They were wearing golden armor, densely packed together, filling half the sky, and a murderous aura rose to the sky!

The leader of the troops was none other than Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King.

His hands were empty.

The Meishan brothers exclaimed: "That belongs to Li Tianwang..."

As soon as they finished speaking, they suddenly heard a "click".

Everyone's face changed drastically.

The one who reacted most strongly was Li Jing.

He was ordered to come and capture Yang Jian, and was a little hesitant at first.

Yang Jian’s performance last time shocked him and made him realize that the other party’s strength was far above his.

When he saw Xiaotian Dog taking the lead, he was a little surprised and thought of subduing Xiaotian Dog first so that Yang Jian would be cautious.

But he never expected that Roaring Sky Dog would be so powerful.

It bit its own pagoda in one bite! Li Jing hurriedly took back the magic weapon and looked at the crack on the pagoda with heartache.

When he looked at Xiaotian Dog barking at him and shouting "Come again", he almost thought he was dreaming.

Could it be that the Roaring Sky Dog in front of him is actually Yang Jian in disguise?

It was not until he noticed that Roaring Sky Dog had stopped barking that Li Jing noticed Yang Jian and his companions.

Li Jing didn't care about other people, but stared at Yang Jian.

He took a deep breath and said loudly: "Yang Jian, you once made trouble in the Heavenly Palace a thousand years ago. The Jade Emperor not only forgave you, but also made you the God of Justice. This is a great favor..."

Just as Li Jing was speaking in a stern voice, trying to make Yang Jian come to his senses and go with him to the Heavenly Palace to apologize, Yang Jian stretched out his hand, and a scroll appeared in his palm.

Li Jing had just said half of his words when he saw Yang Jian spread out the scroll.

The scroll swelled up in the wind and enveloped them.

Li Jing felt an inexplicable shudder.

He tried to dodge, but saw that the painting had already covered the entire sky.

"The Mountain and River State Map!" Roaring Sky Dog exclaimed, "Did the master buy it?"

Yang Jian nodded.

The Meishan brothers and others were all surprised.

They had heard of the name of the Mountain and River Society Map, but according to rumors, hadn't it disappeared along with the goddess Nuwa? Yang Jian did not explain their doubts.

Before leaving the tavern, he spent 25 million time and space coins to buy this item.

He didn't want to kill indiscriminately, especially against these heavenly soldiers and generals who were just following orders.

The Map of Mountains, Rivers, and States is undoubtedly an excellent weapon to deal with them.

He raised his hand and pressed down gently, and the map of mountains, rivers, and the country fell down.

After sweeping around in the air, it began to shrink and return to Yang Jian's hand in an instant.

Those hundreds of thousands of heavenly soldiers and generals disappeared without a trace.

"Third Master?" Someone couldn't help but speak.

Yang Jian smiled and said, "Since I dare to go to the Heavenly Palace this time, I must have something to rely on."

"But what use are we...?"

"Just follow me closely." Yang Jian said.

He summoned everyone together not because he really wanted them to fight with him, but to prevent these former brothers from falling into the hands of the Heavenly Court and becoming bargaining chips for the Jade Emperor to negotiate with him.

Besides, he didn't want to bring chaos to the heaven.

Someone has to maintain order.

After briefly explaining to everyone, Yang Jian led everyone straight to the South Heaven Gate.

On the way, they met two groups of heavenly soldiers and generals, all of whom were effortlessly incorporated into the map of mountains, rivers, and the country by Yang Jian.

When he arrived outside the Nantian Gate, the people who used to guard the place had already disappeared. It was obvious that they had received the news and left early.

Yang Jian took a deep breath and motioned for everyone to follow him in. Then they ran into a team of heavenly guards led by a giant spirit.

These are the elite of Heaven, proficient in battle formations and combined combat techniques.

But before they could speak, Yang Jian waved the scroll in the same way, adding some scenery to it.

After assigning a few people to guard the South Gate, he led the rest to continue moving inward.

Along the way, Yang Jian was unstoppable and did not encounter any decent resistance at all.

A million years of cultivation is like a chasm for all practitioners born after birth, which cannot be reached even in a lifetime.

Even without using the Map of Mountains, Rivers, and the State, he could still render all resisters powerless with a wave of his hand.

…

The Jade Emperor and Queen Mother in the Lingxiao Palace were already extremely anxious.

Yang Jian's actions were not a secret at all.

Seeing how powerful he was and even got the map of mountains, rivers, and the country, the Queen Mother turned pale and thought to herself that something was wrong.

The Jade Emperor's expression also changed drastically.

His strength is not as weak as others think. He is only slightly inferior to the Three Pure Ones.

According to the news he received, Yang Jian was much stronger than he thought.

Not to mention whether he could control the opponent, just the fact that he, as the Lord of the Three Realms, was fighting with him personally was hard for him to accept.

The Emperor of Heaven cannot give up his majesty, right? "Go and invite Tathagata!" the Jade Emperor shouted.

The Three Pure Ones were secretly disobeying him, while Tathagata kept trying to please him. At this juncture, he could only ask for help from them.

As soon as the gods who came for reinforcements left, a burst of laughter suddenly came from Lingxiao Palace.

"Don't worry, Jade Emperor. Let me give him a try."

Who the hell can still laugh! The Jade Emperor looked in the direction of the voice and when he saw that it was Taishang Laojun who was speaking, the displeasure on his face immediately disappeared and was replaced by a smile.

"Then I'll have to ask Laojun to control my good-for-nothing nephew!" said the Jade Emperor.

Hearing the word "nephew", many gods were surprised.

At this juncture, shouldn't they be called traitors? Someone guessed the Jade Emperor's thoughts, and his expression became subtle.

…

Yang Jian was walking towards Lingxiao Palace.

The number of brothers following him was decreasing.

They were sent by Yang Jian to maintain order in various parts of the Heavenly Palace.

There is no essential difference between heaven and the human world.

If this place is left unattended, there will still be some opportunists who take advantage of the situation.

When Yang Jian was wondering whether the Jade Emperor would invite Tathagata again and how he should deal with the matter, he suddenly saw a golden ring flying towards him.

The golden ring was extremely fast and carried great power, which made him feel awe-inspiring.

At the critical moment, Yang Jian drew out the three-pointed, double-edged halberd.

With a loud "clang", he blocked the golden ring.

In other words, diamond cutter!

It looks very similar to the Vajra that Sun Wukong sold to the tavern, but there are some subtle differences.

Yang Jian watched the Vajra Cutter fly back and fall into the hands of an old Taoist priest.

He recognized the identity of the old Taoist with white hair and beard at a glance.

Taishang Laojun.

This made Yang Jian a little surprised.

He didn't know why the other party showed up.

According to his guess, unless he wanted to change the dynasty in Heaven, the Three Pure Ones would probably intervene.

"Yang Jian, Heaven has treated you well over the years, why would you rebel against Heaven?" Taishang Laojun said with a smile.

Yang Jian looked at him in silence.

Roaring Sky Dog took a step forward and shouted, "Woof! Are you getting old and confused? The Jade Emperor killed the master's mother, imprisoned his sister, and even tried to kill Chenxiang. Can the master be blamed for this?"

Laojun shook his head: "How can a dog like you have the right to speak!"

As he spoke, he waved the whisk in his hand and a gust of wind blew towards Roaring Sky Dog.

Roaring Sky Dog let out a cry, then suddenly opened its mouth and bit the breeze that was sweeping over it.

Just as Howling Sky Dog was carried into the air by the breeze, Yang Jian suddenly raised his hand.

His hand grew longer in an instant, grabbed Roaring Sky Dog's tail and pulled him to his side.

Taishang Laojun's eyes flickered, and a hint of joy flashed across his face.

Yang Jian really has a big secret! After landing, Howling Sky Dog whimpered, hid behind Yang Jian, and then stretched out his head and looked at Taishang Laojun in fear.

Yang Jian seemed to be thinking about something. He suddenly took out the map of mountains, rivers, and states from his arms, looked at Taishang Laojun and said, "I think Laojun came here for this, right?"

The Supreme Lord Lao said: "The order of heaven cannot be disturbed."

"But," he changed the subject, "I have a question."

"What is your relationship with the goddess Nuwa?"

Nuwa?

Yang Jian suddenly thought of Zhao Linger.

The only people related to Nuwa that he had contact with were the descendants of Nuwa.

But that Nuwa clearly came from another world.

"Where did your map of mountains, rivers, and the country come from?" Taishang Laojun asked again.

Only then did Yang Jian understand what the other party meant.

He shook his head and said, "This is not what you think it is."

He thought that the other party was coveting the map of mountains, rivers, and the country.

"Of course I understand." said Taishang Laojun.

He had seen another map of mountains, rivers, and the country, which was quite similar to this one, but not the same.

But he thought that the only person in the world who could come up with a second picture of mountains, rivers, and the country was Nuwa herself.

Could it be that Yang Jian had inherited Nuwa's legacy? This was the real reason why he showed up.

A million years of cultivation is a hurdle, so is tens of millions of years?

He has always yearned for the ancient gods and tried to reach their level.

But no matter how hard he tried over the years, he was always one step short.

Without transcendence, obsessions will always be hard to let go!

Just as Yang Jian was about to speak, Taishang Laojun asked again: "Where did you get this picture from?"

"A tavern." Yang Jian told the truth.

Taishang Laojun frowned slightly: "Heaven is compassionate, what you need may not be unsolvable."

Are they negotiating terms? Yang Jian immediately lost interest.

Is the Jade Emperor the only one who ignores the sufferings of the people?

"I believe in myself more." He said lightly.

"I want to see the goddess Nuwa again." Taishang Laojun said sincerely.

"I have never seen her before." Yang Jian said, "Can Laojun please move aside?"

Taishang Laojun looked slightly gloomy.

He felt Yang Jian's hostility towards him.

He also realized that the other party was deliberately hiding something from him.

He suddenly smiled and said, "Since you are determined to fight against the Heavenly Court, I can only stop you first!"

After he finished speaking, Taishang Laojun's aura suddenly changed, and a black and white Bagua diagram slowly emerged from behind him.

This is the magic weapon he relies on most.

Tai Chi diagram! Yang Jian signaled Xiaotian Dog and the others to retreat, and stared at the Taishang Laojun opposite with caution.

He could feel the difference in strength between himself and Taishang Laojun, but he was not worried.

After all, I have helpers...

As soon as this thought flashed through Yang Jian's mind, he suddenly heard Buddhist music coming from the west.

"Yang Jian, you are the God of Justice in Heaven, why do you break the law knowingly?"

A scolding followed, and then he saw the person who spoke.

Buddha sitting on a golden lotus.

His own helpers didn't come, but the helpers from Heaven arrived first? Yang Jian felt a little nervous for no reason.

He himself was not afraid, but these brothers...

Various thoughts flashed through his mind, but his expression did not change. Instead, he said to Tathagata: "When did the Buddha become the Jade Emperor's running dog?"

Tathagata was not angry at his words.

At his level, he has long since reached the point where he is not sad or happy because of ordinary external things.

The only thing that moved Taishang Laojun was the news about the ancient gods, while Tathagata was more concerned about the ordinary people in the world.

He values ​​the faith that is despised by the heavenly court.

A single spark can start a prairie fire. He hopes to spread Buddhism throughout the three realms to help himself break through the shackles of his realm.

This is also the reason why he took the initiative to make friends with the Jade Emperor.

Ultimately, they all yearn for a higher sky, to transcend this world.

"Yang Jian, do you plead guilty?" Tathagata said.

Yang Jian suddenly laughed.

He glanced at Tathagata in front of him, and then looked at Taishang Laojun in the other direction.

"How about you two have a fight and the winner fights with me?" he said.

Tathagata and Laojun were obviously stunned by his words.

Although this young man does have the capital to make them take him seriously, isn't it too arrogant to say such things?

And does he think he is a fool?

Taishang Laojun's expression remained unchanged. He took a step back silently, making his attitude clear.

He knew Tathagata's thoughts very well.

After he subdues Yang Jian, it will not be too late for him to find Yang Jian for information.

Tathagata nodded at him, then smiled at Yang Jian and said, "It's not too late for you to confess your sins to the Jade Emperor now."

Seeing that the two had not been fooled, and realizing that Xiao Tian Quan and the others had retreated far away, Yang Jian simply raised his three-pointed, two-edged halberd and said, "There is no point in talking any more. Let's fight!"

One of Tathagata's hands was already reaching out to grab him.

It was clearly just a hand, but Yang Jian felt as if the heaven and earth were rolling towards him.

The world was spinning around him, and he felt like a turtle trapped in a jar.

He recognized the move.

Tathagata's signature magical power.

Buddha’s kingdom in the palm of your hand!

Just as the hand was getting closer to him, the vertical eye between Yang Jian's eyebrows suddenly opened, and a rich purple flashed.

The world in front of him immediately returned to normal.

Yang Jian flew up and stabbed at the giant hand with his three-pointed, double-edged halberd.

A drop of bright red blood fell.

Taishang Laojun raised his eyebrows slightly, and his expression became much more serious.

Although he was confident that he could suppress Yang Jian, the fact that the other party was able to hurt Tathagata was enough to prove that the other party was no different from them in terms of realm. What he lacked was nothing more than knowledge and cultivation.

He became even more curious about how Yang Jian got these.

The smile on Tathagata's face had disappeared.

He felt his hand was injured.

He could hardly remember how long it had been since he was last injured.

Even if it was just a moment of carelessness, he felt that he had underestimated the person in front of him.

He also began to take more interest in Yang Jian's experiences.

Facing the flying Yang Jian, a string of Buddhist beads appeared in his palm.

He waved his hand, and the Buddhist beads flew towards Yang Jian, emitting a dazzling golden light, trapping Yang Jian for a short time.

Laozi, who was watching this scene with great interest, suddenly noticed that Tathagata was looking at him.

The moment his eyes made contact, he knew Tathagata's intention.

He smiled and nodded, then took out his Tai Chi diagram.

With these two magic weapons, Yang Jian would be unable to escape.

The two of them have been immersed in this realm for countless years, and their various methods and magic weapons are far beyond what Yang Jian can match.

As for the sneak attack, there was no psychological burden on them at all.

They already had the confidence to defeat the opponent, it was just a matter of spending a little more effort.

Besides, when they reach their level, they don’t care about things like face.

Just as Yang Jian was about to be covered by the Tai Chi diagram, a voice suddenly rang out.

"Hey, this is using the majority to bully the minority!"
