"That's different!"

Nie Changchuan picked up a peach and said with a smile: "If you don't see it, it's called falling into a trap. If you see it, it's called taking advantage of the trap!"

"Boss, you don't think I'm stupid, do you? The Heavenly Court treats me so well, with courtesies and gifts in various forms. I'm just a True Immortal, how can I deserve such attention from the Heavenly Court?"

"So, there is only one truth—"

"They are spending a fortune to buy horse bones. It's the same as bribing the leader's family if you can't bribe the leader!"

Hearing Nie Changchuan's words, Lin Zhongtian couldn't help but laugh.

These old members of the alliance have all been through trials and tribulations in the universe, and none of them are easy to deal with.

Lin Zhongtian smiled and asked, "So what do you want to do?"

Nie Changchuan took a bite of the peach and said casually, "What else can I do? Eat the sugar coating and fire the cannonball back!"

"Boss, you are the top leader in our alliance. Why do you want to go to Heaven and be the second in command of the Jade Emperor?"

"Unless the Jade Emperor gives up his position and lets you become the Lord of Heaven, that's fine!"

Hearing Nie Changchuan's disdainful words, Lin Zhongtian laughed: "You think highly of me!"

As he said this, he changed the subject and said with interest: "In fact, status or something like that doesn't matter. If I join the Heavenly Court, the Jade Emperor will definitely give me a satisfactory explanation in this regard."

Nie Changchuan looked at Lin Zhongtian in surprise: "Boss, you don't really want to be the Purple Star Emperor, do you?"

"What's wrong with that?" Lin Zhongtian said with a smile, "This world is a multiverse of the same size as Marvel, DC, and the world of immortal cultivation. It has countless middle and small worlds attached to it."

"If we can gain a foothold in the main world, we can use the indigenous forces to search for the existence of time travelers in many subsidiary worlds in the future."

"You are now the immortal ancestor of the Maoshan ancestral temple. You should have a deep understanding of this aspect, right?"

Nie Changchuan nodded and said, "Indeed, although our Maoshan does not have a high status in the Three Realms, its heritage is widely spread in the lower realms."

"Now that I have ascended to the upper realm and am in charge of the Maoshan ancestral temple, it has only been a few years, and I have discovered the existence of many suspected time travelers in small worlds through the inheritance of the Maoshan lineage."

At this point, Nie Changchuan paused, then smiled and said, "I have already instructed the Maoshan disciples in those small worlds to help look after these little fellows who are suspected to be time travelers. Once their identities are confirmed, or they have ascended to this world, we will go and assess and recruit them."

Hearing Nie Changchuan's words, Lin Zhongtian nodded.

He already knew these things, so he said those words just now.

Nie Changchuan pondered for a moment and said, "However, I still don't recommend you to become the Purple Star Emperor."

"As for the reason, it's not just because of my personal resentment, but also because of the Heavenly Court itself. They are now weak and their luck has been reduced. Many forces in the Three Realms can suppress them."

“Don’t even mention the sacred mountain of Buddhism, or even the Yuxu Palace of Kunlun Mountain.”

"Even the underworld has begun to secretly disobey the Heavenly Court in recent years..."

"The Jade Emperor invites you to take charge of Ziwei Palace because he wants to support the Heavenly Court and strengthen its fortune!"

"Oh?" Lin Zhongtian raised his eyebrows and asked with interest, "What happened?"

After Nie Changchuan finished eating the peaches in his hand, he said with a serious expression: "This all started five hundred years ago..."

As Nie Changchuan slowly told the story, Lin Zhongtian also remembered what Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva had said to him in the world of "A Chinese Ghost Story".

At that time, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva said that in the Dongsheng Continent, Aolai Kingdom, and Huaguo Mountain, a stone monkey was born and raised by nature. No one knew where the monkey had learned such extraordinary abilities. In just a few years, the monkey caused chaos in the Dragon Palace and the underworld, took away the Dinghai Shenzhen left by the human emperor Dayu, and crossed out the name of the monkey from the book of life and death.

At the same time, because of his overly powerful soul, as soon as he appeared, divine light shone everywhere, killing and injuring countless ghosts.

Because of this, the underworld was short of staff, and many powerful people in the underworld had no choice but to recall the projections and incarnations of the small worlds, causing many small worlds like A Chinese Ghost Story to fall into chaos with demons running rampant.

At that time, Lin Zhongtian already knew the timeline of the main world of mythology.

It was exactly after Sun Wukong made a big fuss in the underworld and before he made a big fuss in heaven in "Journey to the West".

Now, more than twenty years have passed in the void gap, and five hundred years have passed in the main world of mythology.

Sun Wukong had already caused a big disturbance in the Heavenly Palace, and in the final battle, he was suppressed by Tathagata under the Five Finger Mountain.

However, unlike the original "Journey to the West", the Monkey King in this world seems to be more powerful.

He called himself the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, and led the 72 demon kings and tens of millions of demon soldiers to attack the Heaven Palace with great force, and broke into the Lingxiao Palace from the South Gate of Heaven.

In this battle, he killed countless heavenly soldiers, generals, immortals, gods and true beings.

In addition to the Four Heavenly Kings, Twenty-Eight Constellations, Nine Star Gods, Twelve Yuanchen, Five Directions Jie Di, Four Valued Officials, East and West Stars, North and South Gods, Five Mountains and Four Rivers, and other immortal gods who appeared in the original work, even three of the Four Emperors of Heaven were forced to take action.

The Emperor of Ziwei of the North Pole, the Emperor of Changsheng of the South Pole, and the Emperor of Tianhuang of the Shanggong of Gou Chen.

These three big men led their subordinates to the Lingxiao Palace to protect the emperor.

But unfortunately, the Sun Wukong in this world is too powerful. He displayed his divine power and led a group of demon kings to defeat the reinforcements. He even went to the former Purple Star Emperor in person and beat him to ashes with a single blow.

In the end, it was Tathagata who came in person and at the cost of one arm of the Buddha's golden body, barely managed to suppress Sun Wukong under the Five Finger Mountain.

After hearing this, Lin Zhongtian finally understood why Tathagata had to invest his divine consciousness in the great plan of the Journey to the West for a small world and personally plan it behind the scenes...

Lin Zhongtian thought thoughtfully, "So, the previous Emperor Ziwei was beaten to death by a monkey?"

“…Is this the point?”

Nie Changchuan rolled his eyes and said, "Shouldn't the focus be on Monkey's outrageous combat power?"

Lin Zhongtian smiled and said, "Indeed...Back in the world of A Chinese Ghost Story, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva once quietly asked me if the master behind this monkey was related to me."

"At the time, I was confused and didn't understand why Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva asked this question."

"Now I finally understand, this monkey's fighting ability is indeed not like that of a native monkey!"

At this point, Lin Zhongtian's expression gradually became strange, and he couldn't help but whispered: "Is he a time traveler?"

"impossible!"

Nie Changchuan shook his head decisively and said, "If Sun Wukong is a time traveler, then he must know the future plot. How could he repeat the mistakes of the monkeys, go through the Imperial Horse Administration, the Peach Garden, and finally be suppressed by Tathagata?"

“…That’s the truth.”

Lin Zhongtian nodded thoughtfully: "Then there is something wrong with his master!"

"Xiaochuan, you guys have been in this world for a while now. Have you ever inquired about the whereabouts of Patriarch Bodhi?"

Nie Changchuan's expression froze, then he smiled bitterly and said, "Boss, you think too highly of us!"

"This is the main universe of the mythological world. We are just mere immortals. We can enter and leave the heaven and receive the courtesy of immortals and gods. It is all because of your face, Boss."

"Just because they are willing to treat me with courtesy doesn't mean they are willing to tell me the secrets of heaven and earth."

"Anyway, in all these years, apart from a bunch of resources and well-known things, I haven't heard any reliable information."

At this point, Nie Changchuan shrugged his shoulders, his face full of helplessness.

Lin Zhongtian laughed and said, "Then you have never seen the suppressed Sun Wukong?"

Nie Changchuan nodded and said, "Of course. That monkey has great cultivation and magical powers. Tathagata and the Heavenly Court are worried that the Five Finger Mountain cannot suppress him for too long, so they sent many immortals, gods and Buddhas to watch over him and strengthen the seal from time to time."

"Those who are qualified to guard Sun Wukong must at least have celestial-level combat power."

"I am just a True Immortal. How dare I go to such a place to watch the fun..."

Lin Zhongtian said with interest: "It's quite interesting!"

After saying that, he suddenly stood up, waved his sleeves and said, "Come on, I'll take you to see the monkey!"

Nie Changchuan's eyes lit up, and he immediately put away the nectar and the remaining middle-grade peach in front of him, and said excitedly: "What are we waiting for? Let's go!"

Lin Zhongtian looked at Nie Changchuan and smiled, "Where's Ah Chen?"

Nie Changchuan said without hesitation: "He is not in this world, there is no need to wait for him!"

Lin Zhongtian nodded and waved his sleeves. Rays of silver light burst out from them and enveloped the two of them.

…

…

But Lin Zhongtian and Nie Changchuan left the Maoshan Immortal Cave and flew towards the direction of the Five Finger Mountain.

Under the influence of the power of the origin of space, Lin Zhongtian's supernatural powers were born, and he could cross tens of thousands of kilometers in one step.

In just a moment, the two of them crossed the space and appeared a hundred miles away from the Five Finger Mountain.

Looking forward from this point, one can see thousands of golden lights and auspicious clouds in the sky. This is the manifestation of the power of the Five Finger Mountain, or the Five Elements Mountain.

Nie Changchuan looked excited and took a step forward without hesitation, wanting to meet the only authentic Monkey King in this mythical universe.

At this moment, the earth surged like flowing water, causing his step to return to its original place.

Nie Zhangchuan raised his eyebrows, then snorted coldly, raised his hand, made a gesture, and shouted: "Drive away the spirit!"

In an instant, a white light burst out from the ground and appeared in front of him as a kind old man with white hair and a childlike face, holding a wooden crutch.

After he appeared, he glanced at Nie Changchuan, then clasped his hands together, bowed and said, "I am the land god of Five Elements Mountain, and I am here to pay my respects to Master Wangchuan of Maoshan!"

“…”

Nie Changchuan frowned and said with some dissatisfaction: "Only you? Where is the God of the Five Elements Mountain?"

"Why don't you come to see me? Do you look down on me?"

The old land master said he dared not, and then smiled bitterly and said: "Master Wangchuan, you also know that we are here to guard the demon monkey that is making trouble in the Heavenly Palace under the order of His Majesty and the decree of the Buddha. If it is not an urgent matter, we dare not leave our post without permission!"

Nie Changchuan said bluntly: "So where is the mountain god?"

The land god hesitated for a moment and whispered, "The mountain god is in the sky, reporting to the Five Directions Jie Di about the situation of the demon monkey today..."

The Five Jieti...

Nie Changchuan's eyes lit up, and he said arrogantly, "That's great. You can go to heaven and tell them that my boss has come. Ask the Five Elements Mountain God and the Five Directions Jie Di to come and pay their respects to him!"

Landlord originally felt extremely contemptuous of Nie Changchuan's weak and arrogant attitude, but upon hearing this, his face changed and he quickly turned his gaze to the smiling young man behind Nie Changchuan.

Just this one glance scared the old landowner so much that sweat broke out on his forehead and he immediately knelt down on the ground.

"I, the humble God of the Five Elements Mountain, did not know that Your Majesty was coming. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me!"
