As soon as Nezha returned to heaven, before he could show off to others his achievement of breaking Fang Jian's head with a brick, he was summoned to Taishi Xiandu by the boy Qingyan with the decree of the Queen Mother of the West.
In the Taiyuan Hall, the Queen Mother of the West sat high above the nine-colored clouds, with a jade slip unfolding in front of her from the fairy light. Her phoenix eyes fell on the jade slip, and her peerless beauty was awe-inspiring without even being angry.
Nezha stood respectfully in the center of the hall, waiting for the Queen Mother of the West to ask questions, but he had already stood there for a full hour, and the Queen Mother of the West was still looking at the jade slip in front of her.
With Nezha's lively personality, it was really difficult for him to stand in the hall for so long, so Nezha was feeling uncomfortable all over at the moment, but he had to continue to wait respectfully.
However, Nezha was a smart man after all. He had already vaguely guessed why the Queen Mother of the West summoned him, so Nezha kept winking at the Qingyan boy standing below the Queen Mother of the West.
At first, Qingyan Tongzi didn't want to pay attention to him, but Nezha kept winking at him tirelessly. Even if Qingyan Tongzi was in a good mood, he couldn't stand this harassment.
So after Nezha had been giving him looks for half an hour, Qingyan Tongzi could no longer bear it. He sighed deeply, then turned to the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman and said, "Your Majesty, the Great Dao Lord, Nezha the Third Prince has been waiting for an hour."
"Really?" The Queen Mother of the West spoke in a clear and elegant voice without moving her eyes.
Hearing the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady speak, Nezha immediately bowed his head and said, "Lord Dao, I know I was wrong."
The Lady of the Nine Heavens didn't ask him "What did you do wrong?" Instead, she pointed her whisk in the air at Nezha with her right hand and said, "Don't bully Fang Jian anymore."
When Nezha heard this, he immediately said aggrievedly, "Da Daojun, you are so biased. Why do I have to bully Fang Jian instead of Fang Jian bullying me?"
At this point, Nezha said with a look of distress, "I'm almost defeated by him, and he's only a Golden Immortal! Da Daojun, please understand!"
But the Lady of the Nine Heavens did not want to hear his explanation. She simply waved her whisk and said, "You know he's only a Golden Immortal. We're both celestial beings, so we should be friendly and harmonious. Why is it that he threatens me with death and hunts me down in the Thirty-Five Heavens?"
After saying this, the Lady of the Nine Heavens hugged the whisk in her arms and said, "Don't do it again. Go."
When Nezha heard this, he was immediately delighted. The Great Dao Lord was just making a lot of noise but doing little. He just scolded him and let him go. It seemed that he was lucky today.
Nezha didn't dare to say anything more, and quickly bowed and said, "Thank you for your teachings, Lord Dao. I will remember this with all my heart and will never do the same again. Lord Dao, please sit down. I will take my leave."
After saying that, Nezha left the Taiyuan Palace. Nezha was even more happy after leaving the Taiyuan Palace. Not only because the Queen Mother of the West did not punish him, but also because the Queen Mother of the West did not even confiscate the spiritual light and shadow, so Nezha was in a good mood.
It makes sense for the Queen Mother of the West to do this. Although she is loyal to Fang Jian, this is not a reason to punish Nezha.
Especially since she is one of the Five Imperial Gods, she cannot let her "selfishness" outweigh her "public interest".
She told Nezha not to bully Fang Jian anymore, but it was just a warning rather than a scolding. She scolded Nezha because Nezha often used knives and guns against Fang Jian and even chased him for thirty-five levels of heaven. This kind of thing had a very bad influence.
Moreover, the Queen Mother of the West knew that Fang Jian had deliberately allowed Nezha to be injured, so she did not take away his spiritual light.
One stick of incense after Nezha left Taiyuan Hall, the Queen Mother of the West finally finished reading all the contents on the jade slip, and then summoned Xuan Wen Tianxiang to meet her.
Wen Tianxiang, who was the "Kaocheng Jun" of Taishi Xiandu, immediately paid his respects to the Queen Mother of the West after entering the hall. Then the Queen Mother of the West moved her mind slightly, and the jade slip was immediately sent to Wen Tianxiang by the fairy light.
Wen Tianxiang immediately took the jade slip, and then heard the Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman say, "On the list of candidates for the Three Realms Immortal Cultivation Test, there are seventeen individuals with great merit and outstanding character. I have circled them in red and authorized the use of tribulation thunder."
Upon hearing this, Wen Tianxiang immediately bowed and said, "Lord Da Dao, be merciful. I will obey your command."
Wen Tianxiang then took his leave and left Taiyuan Hall. Times have changed now, and becoming an immortal is no longer your own decision.
If you want or have the ability, you can pick the true immortal fruit.
Only after passing the assessment in Taishi Xiandu and receiving the thunder of tribulation, can you obtain the ticket to become an immortal.
If there is no thunder, unless you encounter a great adventure and a god is willing to pass on his immortal fruits to you, otherwise, even if you are a genius that is rarely seen in billions of years, you will not be able to become an immortal.
After arranging the thunderbolt, the Lady of the Nine Heavens asked the boy Qingyan, "Does Fang Jian have a disciple?"
Upon hearing this, the Qingyan boy smiled, bowed, and said, "Yes, my Lord, my name is 'Mei Xianzhang'."
The Lady of the Nine Heavens nodded, then after a moment's contemplation, said, "Go and fetch the 'Han Xiang Shuang Ling Branch'."
Qingyan boy's mind was turning rapidly, and his memory was quickly flipping back, a thousand years, ten thousand years, a hundred thousand years, a million years. When he turned to the memory of tens of millions of years ago, Qingyan boy remembered that the "Cold Fragrance Double Branches" was a golden fairy-level treasure that the Dragon King of the East China Sea presented to the Queen Mother of the West ten million years ago.
It was taken from a plum tree that had experienced a hundred thousand years of cold catastrophe and a hundred thousand years of fire catastrophe. Unfortunately, the plum tree survived the cold catastrophe and the fire catastrophe, but in the end, its immortal roots were destroyed by a female demon who was jealous of its beauty. If the Dragon King of the East China Sea had not happened to encounter and rescued the only remaining plum branch, it would have disappeared into thin air.
The only remaining plum branch has "two branches growing side by side, the flowers bloom like fire, bright and shining like flowers, not afraid of severe cold, not afraid of fire, proudly standing firm, and emitting a unique fragrance", so it was named "Cold Fragrance Double Plum Branches" and was later presented to the Queen Mother of the West by the Dragon King of the East China Sea.
