Monster Chronicles: My Daoist Skill Comes from Mythology-Chapter 331 - 293: First Glimpse of Brilliance, Grandmaster of the Grand Method of the Three Realms
Palace of the Polestar.
The Peach Venue was in utter disarray, tables overturned, wine jars shattered, fruits and wine scattered everywhere.
The Queen Mother let out a shrill scream, her delicate face twisting into a ferocious contortion!
"Who? Who ruined my moment of glory?!"
The Queen Mother’s complexion turned pale, then green—this was her birthday celebration!
If she lost face in front of the immortals and Buddhas, it would be a colossal disgrace laughed at for eternity.
"Erlang God! Huaguang!"
The Jade Emperor roared.
Two tri-eyed figures hurriedly approached.
Erlang God and Huaguang each bore three eyes, all of them Heavenly Eyes, and both were strikingly youthful and handsome.
The only distinction lay in their weapons.
One wielded the Three-headed Demon Snake, while the other brandished the Jade Emperor’s golden spear.
"Your humble servants pay respects to Your Majesty!"
"What is going on with you two? Why has the Peach Festival turned into this mess?"
The Jade Emperor scolded.
Erlang God and Huaguang exchanged bewildered glances. Huaguang replied with a wry smile, "We have no idea."
"Well?! Aren’t you going to quickly send someone to capture the culprit?"
"Yes, immediately!"
The two left to rally the troops.
At that moment, the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals rushed in frantically.
"Bad news! The demons are attacking the Heavenly Court! They’ve already breached the South Heavenly Gate!"
"Summon All Heavens Star Lords to defend!"
The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother panicked!
"Erlang God! Huaguang! Deploy troops to resist them!"
"Understood!"
Erlang God and Huaguang strode out of the Palace of the Polestar.
Huaguang grumbled furiously, cursing, "Always us leading the charge, damn it."
"Then don’t fight."
Erlang God suddenly stopped in his tracks.
"What?"
"I said just stand by and watch—don’t fight."
At that moment, Song Lin’s voice came from behind Huaguang.
Besides Song Lin, there were also the thirty-two Earth Immortals, Zhengyang, Zhang Guolao, and the Three Great Heavenly Masters.
"You... you’re all in on this together?"
Huaguang widened his eyes in disbelief.
"Indeed. Care to join us?" Erlang God asked with a smile.
"But the Jade Emperor...," Huaguang hesitated, "If he sends the Star Lords to fight us, what then?"
The strongest faction in the Heavenly Court was the Star Lord Force.
Each of the Jiuyao and Beidou Star Lords was an Independent Immortal.
The Thunder Department Venerable, leader of the Twenty-Eight Constellations, Horn Wood Jiao, was said to be an immortal above the level of an Independent Immortal.
Moreover, the Acquired Immortals on their side didn’t even have a single true immortal.
The Dharma Guardian Divine Generals, the Four Marshals, and the Four Value Staff were all merely Independent Immortals.
They only had five: Pure Yang Venerate, plus the Three Great Heavenly Masters and Erlang God.
"So what? We’ve done nothing treasonous. With an external enemy at the gates, how could the Heavenly Court dare act rashly?"
"Besides, disunity was our weakness before. Now that we’re united, if we were to rebel, the Heavenly Court would lose a third of its combat power."
Lishan Mother was an immortal too.
If they were pushed into rebellion, it would undoubtedly strengthen the opposing forces.
What determined their survival wasn’t the Jade Emperor, but the demons from the mortal world.
This was called leveraging a bandit for self-preservation.
After Song Lin’s analysis, the Huaguang Heavenly King’s eyes gleamed with understanding.
"Alright! Everything under Pure Yang Venerate’s lead! I’ll notify the Four Marshals and the Four Value Staff at once."
"Of course, that doesn’t mean we’ll do nothing entirely. Token effort, right?"
Song Lin grinned slyly.
"Naturally!"
Boom!
A distant explosion shattered the air.
Song Lin glanced up, seeing a three-thousand-foot-tall dharma body towering among the clouds.
The dharma body had three heads and six arms, each hand wielding identical treasure swords.
Its appearance mirrored that of the Golden Cauldron True Man, with its three faces embodying serenity, wrath, and joy.
The Golden Cauldron True Man was battling a one-horned man.
Each strike had them evenly matched.
Sections of palace structures toppled in heaps.
The thirty thousand Heavenly Soldiers and Generals dared not approach the war zone of these titanic combatants.
"Slay them!!"
From the mortal world, ten thousand Demon Lords charged upward.
A kaleidoscope of spells flooded the expanse, painting the land within a ten-thousand-mile radius in brilliant hues.
Yellow sands soared, black clouds pressed against cities.
The sky and earth were in complete upheaval.
Song Lin clicked his tongue in wonder.
What a grand scene.
Tens of thousands of cultivators clashed, a spectacle rivaling the Demon Clan’s once-in-a-century Dragon Abyss Conference.
"How dare you, demonic fiends!"
Boom!
A ten-thousand-foot purple lightning arc tore through the void.
Clouds surged against the sun and moon; electric currents spiraled around the constellations.
Another massive dharma image appeared.
It had wings on its back and the beak and feathers of a bird.
Its entire being radiated dazzling electric light.
"Curse it all!"
The Golden Cauldron True Man miscalculated.
With two immortals besieging him, even with copper skin and an undamaged body, he couldn’t withstand them for long.
His original plan had been to wait for the Heavenly Great Saint’s Nine-Transformation Golden Body before making a full-scale assault on the Heavenly Palace.
Unexpectedly, the Monkey King first stole the Queen Mother’s Immortal Clothes, then casually gorged himself at the Peach Venue before heading to the Old Lord Hall.
This premature discovery had them exposed too soon.
Two immortals surrounded Golden Cauldron, leaving him struggling to hold up.
This rebellion in the Heavenly Court was meant to forge the Nine-Transformation Golden Body, paving the way for the Heavenly Great Saint’s future.
But now he was stuck in a bind, with the Heavenly Great Saint’s arrival still uncertain.
"Should I call in the eldest sister?"
The Golden Cauldron True Man considered silently.
No, that’s not an option!
The eldest sister was a Taiyi Immortal, a state of Great Perfection.
If she intervened, the Western World Venerable would have cause to act as well.
The consequences would be even more unpredictable.
Endurance was the only choice!
Boom!
Suddenly, flames erupted skywards!
A divine monkey leapt out!
Clutching a Gold Rod, with golden light shining from his eyes, Three Flowers gathered atop his head.
Sweeping through his enemies with unstoppable momentum, his divine aura was awe-inspiring.
The Nine-Transformation Golden Body had been achieved, Three Flowers Gathering at the Top in Great Perfection!
"How dare you!"
Sun Wukong expanded his dharma body to a thousand feet, swinging his Gold Rod at the Thunder Department Venerable.
The Thunder Department Venerable’s hammer crackled with Divine Thunder, rising to meet the attack!
Boom!
Gold and thunder collided!
The Thunder Department Venerable staggered backward several steps.
"What overwhelming strength!"
The Thunder Department Venerable exclaimed in shock.
Though he held a higher realm, the difference in raw power was astounding—almost absurd!
"Wonderful! Let’s cause some real chaos today!"
The Golden Cauldron True Man’s eyes brightened.
"Hahaha!"
Having mastered his divine skill, Sun Wukong’s spirit soared to the heavens as he roared:
