Chapter 929 Return to Huaguo Mountain(1/2)
…
Suddenly, a stream of light flew from the Flower and Fruit Mountain, and when it came closer, it transformed into a tall, armored monkey with yellow hair all over its body.
"King Yu Tao meets his mentor."
Xu Junming nodded slightly.
King Yumaru is no longer the original King Yumaran, but one of Sun Shi's three corpses.
Since Sun Wukong was sealed at the foot of Wuzhi Mountain, he has been secretly protecting Huaguo Mountain to protect the remaining monkeys from the harassment of heavenly soldiers, generals and demons.
Later, the monkeys who became monsters in Huaguo Mountain were sent to Chongshan Academy for education.
Today's Huaguo Mountain, under the protection of King Yu Tamarin, has restored its beautiful scenery and has once again become a blessed place for thousands of monkeys, but there are no more monsters.
The two masters and disciples slowly flew down with Sun Shi's three-corpse body.
Soon we came to a valley.
This is a huge valley covering thousands of acres. On the opposite side, a waterfall falls from a cliff thousands of feet high, like a silver dragon nearly a hundred feet wide, connecting the sky and the earth.
Tons of water poured down, the waves flew thousands of feet, and the sound shook the valley.
The mighty water accumulated in the valley, forming a small lake covering an area of two to three hundred acres. The lake water then flowed out of the valley along a small river winding through the mountains.
Outside the small lakes and rivers, peaches and plums are planted everywhere. It is already the harvest season, and the branches are covered with unripe peaches.
Monkeys, big and small, were jumping and playing on the branches, living happily.
After a brief glance, Overhaul waved his hand, and the waterfall spread out, revealing the cave entrance behind it.
Flying straight up, when you came to the entrance of the cave, you saw a stone tablet next to it.
Write a letter: "Huaguoshan blessed land, Shuiliandongdongtian".
Stepping in, passing through the long cave, a deep stream soon appeared in front of us.
The three-foot-wide deep stream gets wider as it goes downwards, and the bottom water channel can lead directly to the East China Sea. Sun Wukong passed through here to go to the Crystal Palace and received the Ruyi Golden Cudgel.
Follow the arch bridge across the deep stream and go further inside.
After passing through a cave entrance with hanging vines, we came to a stone cave that was as big as an acre.
It is rich in spiritual energy and can be called an excellent place for spiritual practice.
The furnishings inside are very simple, with a large stone chair in the middle and several stone tables and benches on the left and right sides.
There are two stone paths on both sides of this hall, and many stone chambers are opened on the left and right of the stone path.
The Water Curtain Cave, which was opened by the Eighteen Arhats but became glorious in the hands of Sun Wukong, is now empty.
The demon monkeys back then, after Sun Wukong was suppressed at Wuzhishan, were all sent to Chongshan Academy for training by King Yu Tao.
Over the past few hundred years, except for those who fell under the heavenly tribulation, most of them have practiced the Heavenly Demon Transformation Technique and transformed into human bodies.
Therefore, this stone room has become completely empty except for King Yu Tao who is still guarding Huaguo Mountain.
After walking around the Water Curtain Cave, Xu Junming came to the place where the pebbles were placed.
In order to avoid being noticed by others, all the remains of the stone eggs have been collected by him.
The bare top of the mountain, except for the black and blue stains left by wind and rain, shows no trace of mystery at all.
Standing here, Xu Junming couldn't help but reveal a trace of memories on his face.
When he took away the stone eggs and the souls of the Lingming Stone Monkey, he had only been in the immortal world for three years. Now it has been nearly two thousand years, and things have changed and people have changed.
"Look, this is where the stone egg was when you were born."
Sun Shi nodded.
I looked around but couldn't remember anything.
But deep down in my heart, I feel an inexplicable intimacy with this place.
"Master, I want to place the dojo here in the future."
Smiled.
"It's all right if you want to come back here. But when Sun Wukong comes back from studying for Buddhist scriptures, he will definitely use Huaguoshan as his dojo. If you and him are neighbors, how will you handle yourself if we get into a dispute?"
"Then let's judge based on our ability." Sun Shi said confidently.
"Haha, then it's up to you."
I lingered in Huaguo Mountain for three days before returning to the East China Sea Dragon Palace.
The half-month testing period passed quickly.
Contrary to Xu Junming's expectation, millions of dragons from all over the world have been tested. Many of them passed the test of inner disciples, but only one person passed the test of direct disciples.
No, to be precise, it shouldn't be considered a dragon.
He looked at the ugly girl kneeling on the main hall, with a black complexion, scales on her face, disheveled hair, and webbed hands and feet.
Ao Guang and Ao Qin all looked ugly.
They never expected that millions of real dragons, miscellaneous dragons, and pseudo-dragons would be put to the test, and in the end, the real one who would become the direct descendant would be an ugly shark girl.
Judging from the horn on her forehead and the scales on her body, it is obvious that she also has thin dragon blood.
But the ragged look on his clothes shows that he is a first-class slave in the Dragon Palace.
Seeing the determination in her clear black and white eyes, Xu Junming nodded secretly.
Although this shark girl looks ugly, she has excellent Taoist aptitudes and is especially determined and determined, which is very rare.
"May I have your name?"
"Hui Zhenren, my disciple Long Ling is the maid of Purple Lotus Palace."
Ao Guang's expression changed slightly. Purple Lotus Palace was the palace where his eighteen daughters lived.
Among the crowd nearby, a dragon girl in gorgeous clothes looked jealously at the dragon spirit kneeling in the hall.
In this test, she didn't even pass the inner sect test. Although she could go to Chongshan Academy to study, she was just an ordinary disciple.
Compared with the direct disciples of Chongshan, he is far behind in terms of logic and calculation.
"How come she, a bastard, can be named the direct heir, but I, as the noble daughter of the Dragon King, can't even enter the inner gate."
Overcome with jealousy, she gritted her teeth, rushed out of the crowd, and knelt on the ground.
"The real person is here, Ao Xuan pays my respects."
Xu Junming is an old man who has lived for four thousand years and has never seen anything.
One look at Ao Xuan's face and he guessed that he was the same person.
"Bold, you don't have the right to speak here, why don't you back down."
Ao Guang was not a fool. He knew what his daughter was going to do as soon as he looked at her expression.
Relying on the love of his father and brother, Ao Xuan looked at Xu Junming stubbornly and bowed his hands in a cursory manner.
"Master, I was born with the body of a five-clawed true dragon, and my qualifications and understanding are higher than this wretched maid. Why can she be listed as the direct descendant, but I am not even an inner disciple?"
After looking at her, Xu Junming said calmly.
"Stone, tell me."
"Yes, Master."
Sun Shi took a step forward and said proudly.
"I am different from other sects in recruiting disciples from Chongshan. The first priority is character, the second is perseverance, the third is understanding, and the last is aptitude."
"My master has set up three hundred and sixty-five levels of illusion tests, and uses this as a standard to advance one by one. Anyone who can pass the two hundred tests can enter the inner sect to practice."
"Only those who pass the three hundred and sixty-five levels of illusion testing can become the direct descendants."
"Since the establishment of our Chongshan Academy, only one in a million inner disciples can be selected, while only one in hundreds of millions of direct disciples. All the direct disciples who join my Chongshan Academy are all those with excellent character, perseverance, understanding, and qualifications.
"
"As for you..."
Look at Ao Xuan.
"Although his qualifications and understanding are good, his character is too bad, he is jealous of talents, and he is not a person from the mountains I admire."
"What evidence do you have to say that I am jealous of talents?" Ao Xuan said angrily.
"presumptuous!"
Ao Guangda was furious, and with a wave of his sleeve, a powerful force swept up Ao Xuan and threw him out of the palace.
"Left and right, don't take it down for me."
The shrimp soldiers and crab generals looked at the angry Dragon King and did not dare to neglect, and quickly took Ao Xuan into custody.
"Drag him down and throw him into the palace to await his fate."
"As commanded."
