Chapter 631: Yuan Hong’s Surprise
Chapter 631: Chapter 631: Yuan Hong’s Surprise
Nezha had just returned from the replica world of the Investiture of the Gods, but he was originally summoned from the world of Journey to the West. After having experienced the God and Demon replica, he woke up with some memories of his previous life, such as Sun Wukong causing Havoc in Heaven.
"Yo, isn’t this Nezha, the Third Prince!" Sun Wukong asked with narrowed eyes, his voice somewhat provocative, as if saying, "Come on, have a fight with me!"
Nezha pouted and huffed, "Stinky monkey, your temper is still as explosive!"
Sun Wukong and Nezha had fought before, and after thirty rounds, Nezha was defeated. It might have been that Nezha deliberately threw the fight, but if they were to fight all out, Nezha was not Sun Wukong’s match.
Fortunately, the two of them had a fairly good relationship. Faced with Nezha’s tease, Sun Wukong did not fly into a rage and strike.
Qin Jun watched them and suddenly felt a sense of his past shortsightedness. Now it seemed to him that the gods and demons of the Investiture of the Gods world were very strong, but it was only because Qin Jun’s cultivation had limited their strength at the time.
It seemed that even though the world of Journey to the West was a thousand years later than that of the Investiture of the Gods world, it did not mean that the world of Journey to the West was stronger than that of the Investiture of the Gods world.
At least, the Investiture of the Gods world still belonged to the era of Primordial Chaos, and its spiritual energy was far beyond what the Earth Immortal Realm in the world of Journey to the West could compare to.
Nezha had recovered to the mid-stage of the Mysterious Immortal in the Taiyi Realm, but what about Yuan Hong?
He could only be stronger!
When the time came to use the peak of God and Demon, perhaps he could really break through to Daluo Golden Immortal. Thinking of this, Qin Jun’s mood became even more delightful.
"Your Majesty, these are the ninety-six Demon Kings I’ve subdued. Even the weakest of them have the cultivation of the Immortal Realm, and ten surpass the True Immortal Realm. They have brought their subordinates with them to return and serve Your Majesty and the Great Qin Celestial Empire!" Nezha shifted the topic, introducing the followers behind him.
Originally thinking he could rejoin the high-end military forces of the Great Qin Celestial Empire after reaching the mid-stage of the Mysterious Immortal in the Taiyi Realm, Nezha suddenly felt deflated upon seeing Sun Wukong.
Qin Jun raised his eyebrows. Ninety-six Demon Kings?
He seemed to have heard the legend of Nezha subduing the ninety-six Demon Kings. Although the Immortal Realm was not worth his attention, it was still a force to be reckoned with for the Great Qin Celestial Empire.
Moreover, the subordinates of the ninety-six Demon Kings were many. Scanning the sky above Fox King Island, it was filled with the figures of demons and ghosts, easily a hundred thousand in number.
"From now on, they are your army. I grant them the name ’Mighty Spirit Demon Army’!"
Qin Jun nodded with a smile. The name Mighty Spirit Demon Army immediately excited the Demon Kings and their demon soliders underneath Nezha.
This name sounded very domineering, and had style!
It was infinitely better than just being the ninety-six Demon Kings!
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Over a hundred thousand demons shouted in unison, their voices thundering through the sky.
Qin Jun looked on with satisfaction. The Mighty Spirit Demon Army, led by a Taiyi Realm Mysterious Immortal, with more than ten True Immortals, more than eighty Immortals, and over a hundred thousand demon troops, would surely become a formidable force in the future.
"You all should find an island nearby to temporarily settle down and rest for a few days, and wait for my command!" Qin Jun waved his hand. There were tens of thousands of Han Xin’s soldiers waiting on Fox King Island, and it couldn’t accommodate so many demons.
Nezha nodded, then hurriedly left with the Mighty Spirit Demon Army.
He was naturally happy to be able to fight as soon as he returned.
After Nezha had left, Sun Wukong clicked his tongue in admiration, "You’ve even managed to subdue Nezha as your subordinate. That’s impressive. If you could also win over Li Jing, the old Jade Emperor would be crying."
"Ding! Li Jing is about to return from the God and Demon replica!"
The system notification sounded in Qin Jun’s mind, making his expression suddenly strange.
Sun Wukong, seeing him not speaking, thought he didn’t know who the Jade Emperor was, and so he explained, "The Jade Emperor is the king of all gods in my world, representing Heaven."
As soon as the words fell, a series of figures appeared behind him, along with countless soldiers.
Sun Wukong instinctively turned to look and immediately showed a stunned expression.
"Li Jing!"
Clad in his imposing armor, Li Jing knelt down, blatantly ignoring Sun Wukong as he clasped his hands together and bellowed, "Your Majesty, I have come to see you!"
His voice resonated with a force difficult to conceal, betraying a hint of excitement.
Qin Jun noticed that behind Li Jing stood two youths who bore a striking resemblance to Nezha; they must be Jinzha and Muzha.
In the world of Investiture of the Gods, Nezha overshadowed his two brothers, but the fact that they followed Li Jing to heaven indicated their extraordinary capabilities.
"We greet the Holy Emperor!"
The voices of hundreds of thousands of soldiers rang out in unison, all kneeling in the void. With the ability to soar through the skies, their cultivation was at least at the Golden Elixir Realm. Qin Jun’s Divine Consciousness swept over them and discovered that they all possessed cultivation at or above the Ascending Mortal Realm, and even a significant number had broken through to the Transforming Void Realm.
"Please rise!"
With a smile, Qin Jun beckoned with his hand, his mind prompting the system to display Li Jing’s attribute list.
"Li Jing, from Journey to the West."
"Status: Human Clan!"
"Cultivation: Seventh Layer of the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm!"
"Cultivation Method: Primordial Spirit Mnemonic!"
"Treasure: Linglong Treasure Pagoda! Demon-Slaying Sword!"
"Loyalty: 100 (Full value 100)!"
His cultivation had only improved by a few minor realms, which suggested that it was difficult for Li Jing to make significant strides in his cultivation. However, a powerhouse of the Taiyi Realm is a rare entity between heaven and earth. His greater strength lay in leading troops.
At this moment, Sun Wukong’s face was a portrait of embarrassment. He had just mentioned Li Jing, not expecting him to appear so suddenly; the Supreme Heaven Great Sage was taken aback by the speed at which he was contradicted.
Li Jing then introduced his two sons. Although Jinzha and Muzha were not as extraordinary as Nezha, they too had cultivation in the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm, slightly below Li Jing’s level.
Furthermore, the soldiers Li Jing brought back were originally from the Chen Tang Pass of the Shang Dynasty. As Li Jing was reborn with his cultivation reinstated in the world of Investiture of the Gods, he had specially imparted techniques to enhance the troops of Chen Tang Pass. After the great Investiture of the Gods war and their induction into the heavenly court, their numbers stood at around two hundred thousand, with an average cultivation around the Ascending Mortal Realm, and one-fifth reaching the Transforming Void Realm, which was quite impressive.
"Bestow upon you the name ’Majestic Commanding Army’; Li Jing shall be the Majestic General. First, find an island nearby to settle down and rest for a few days, and await My command," Qin Jun said with a light chuckle, pausing meaningfully, "Nezha has already returned, having formed his own Mighty Spiritual Monster Army."
Li Jing was taken aback, and the expressions on Jinzha’s and Muzha’s faces also registered shock.
They all felt guilty toward Nezha, but as time passed, this guilt turned to frustration at his refusal to grow stronger.
They were a family after all, but Nezha’s longstanding grudge against them left them feeling helpless.
Li Jing gave a wry smile and nodded, then added, "Thank you for the reminder, Your Majesty. By the way, Yuan Hong may hold a surprise for you."
With that, he turned and left, leading Jinzha, Muzha, and the Majestic Commanding Army away.
Qin Jun narrowed his eyes. Judging by Li Jing’s tone, Yuan Hong seemed to be rising rapidly in the clone world.
Nezha, Li Jing, and Yuan Hong were all from the same Investiture of the Gods world. Qin Jun had intended to keep them separate, but then again, why not let them help each other?
"Yuan Hong?"
Sun Wukong’s eyes narrowed. From beginning to end, Li Jing had completely ignored him, which irked him. Old Sun himself had once given them a sound thrashing; couldn’t he get a bit of respect?
However, the way Li Jing spoke of Yuan Hong clearly held him in high regard, which ignited a sense of anticipation in Sun Wukong.
The Mighty Macaque could be a formidable opponent!
