Journey to the West: Man in heaven, working nine to five

#1811 - Enter the endless hell and contract the golden-winged Peng bird

In the Western Paradise, Mount Ling, the Tathagata Buddha welcomed the White Lotus Child, a disciple of a sage.

He greeted him with great ceremony, and all the Buddhas bowed to him.

After all, this was a disciple of a sage, and moreover, one of the Two Sages of the West. To them, his status was lofty, and they had to pay their respects.

The White Lotus Child wore a calm expression and sat next to the Tathagata.

At this moment, a Buddha stepped forward and said to the Tathagata: "Buddha, the Jade Emperor has rejected the request for this campaign."

Just as the Tathagata went to see the White Lotus Child, the Jade Emperor's side had also completed their discussion and ultimately sent the message back to Mount Ling.

Now that the Tathagata had returned, the Buddhas below naturally hurried to report.

These words caused the Tathagata's expression to darken slightly. He did not speak, but instead looked at the White Lotus Child.

"The Jade Emperor would actually refuse? Could it be that someone is interfering?" the White Lotus Child said in a low voice.

"It should be that Chu Hao," the Tathagata replied.

"Chu Hao?" the White Lotus Child muttered this name.

He pondered for a moment, then said: "I will go and discuss it with the Jade Emperor."

Saying this, he left Mount Ling and headed straight for the Heavenly Court.

The Jade Emperor clearly did not expect a sage's disciple to arrive in person. When he saw the White Lotus Child, his expression changed slightly, but he did not rise to greet him.

After all, in terms of seniority, he was also a pageboy under the Dao Ancestor, and his status was equally noble. The two were on equal footing.

"I heard that the Heavenly Venerable is unwilling to campaign against the demon race?" A trace of dissatisfaction appeared on the White Lotus Child's indifferent face.

The Jade Emperor said calmly: "This matter requires careful consideration. I have already sent people to investigate."

The White Lotus Child understood that this was a delaying tactic. He immediately said: "It is only a matter of restricting the demon race. There is no need to investigate. Please, Heavenly Venerable, quickly dispatch troops."

These words seemed somewhat rude, to the point that the Jade Emperor also revealed a hint of displeasure: "This matter concerns the Heavenly Court. Please, Child, be cautious."

The White Lotus Child did not take it seriously: "Could it be that the Heavenly Venerable wants to disobey the sage's decree?"

"Humph…" The Jade Emperor snorted coldly, and an aura of a superior being suddenly erupted, directly causing the White Lotus Child's expression to change.

He did not expect that the Jade Emperor would turn hostile on the spot, ignoring his words.

"White Lotus Child, if this is truly the sage's decree, this Emperor will certainly comply. But if it is not, then please do not interfere with the Heavenly Court's decisions," the Jade Emperor said coldly.

That voice was like ice, cold and piercing, causing the presumptuous White Lotus Child to feel cold all over.

He had originally planned to rely on the sage's name to bully the Jade Emperor, but he did not expect that the other party would be completely fearless.

This caused the White Lotus Child's expression to darken. He remained silent and could only turn and leave.

…

On the other side, Chu Hao, sitting on the back of the Golden-Winged Great Peng, also appeared in the outer reaches of the Avici Hell.

Before even getting close, he could feel a surge of demonic energy rushing towards him, causing the Golden-Winged Great Peng to feel a chill in its heart.

Soon, they saw the Small Thunderclap Temple located at the entrance of the Avici Hell.

"Hell Lord, should we go down?" the Golden-Winged Great Peng asked.

"Go down and do what? Go straight in," Chu Hao ordered.

"Ah?" the Golden-Winged Great Peng was somewhat shocked.

With its massive body, if it swaggered in like this, it was afraid that it would not survive for even a second.

But Chu Hao had already decided, so he would not change his mind. He said: "Don't worry, I won't let you die. Go straight in."

Helpless, the Golden-Winged Great Peng had no choice but to spread its wings and fly towards the Avici Hell.

"Western Heaven's fiend? Dare to barge into my Avici Hell, courting death!" A demon roared out, wielding a blood-colored greatsword, looking fierce.

"Go, your trial has begun," Chu Hao said indifferently, and then left.

The Golden-Winged Great Peng looked at the menacing demon and naturally did not dare to be careless. It immediately roared, emitting a sharp cry.

In an instant, the space vibrated, and the power of sound waves swept across the sky, crushing towards the demon.

The demonic shadow surged, and endless demonic power crushed out. The vast power shone with dazzling demonic light. Within the demonic light, there was an incomparably terrifying power rushing out, instantly dispersing the Golden-Winged Great Peng's attack.

The Golden-Winged Great Peng was shocked and quickly flapped its wings, stirring up a gale.

Whoosh—

The gale howled, and sharp wind blades tore through the void.

The Golden-Winged Great Peng's strength should not be underestimated. At such a critical moment of life and death, it naturally went all out, constantly releasing the power within its body.

It could be seen that the demonic aura was monstrous, the gale was fierce, howling as if a giant beast was about to devour the demonic shadow.

At this moment, several more demons suddenly rushed out from all directions, all exuding extremely intense demonic light. As soon as they appeared, they displayed unparalleled power.

The Golden-Winged Great Peng did not expect that the Avici Hell would suddenly produce so many powerful demons, and immediately collided with them.

Boom—

The two sides collided, the void vibrated, and the surging power constantly agitated, ravaging the world.

Chu Hao watched indifferently from the side, gaining a general understanding of the Golden-Winged Great Peng's strength.

Although it was not weak and possessed the bloodline of the ancient Yuan Phoenix, it was ultimately outnumbered. Soon, huge wounds were blasted out on its body by the demons.

The flowing blood was evaporated by the demonic energy. The Golden-Winged Great Peng fought desperately, but more and more wounds appeared on its huge body.

Seeing a blood-colored greatsword slashing towards its head, the Golden-Winged Great Peng finally couldn't help but shout: "Hell Lord, save me!"

As soon as the voice fell, Chu Hao's figure appeared, and a black God-Slaying Spear pierced through the void, directly repelling the blood-colored greatsword.

The expressions of the demons changed drastically. By the time they reacted, they found that the Golden-Winged Great Peng had already been taken away by that person.

"Hell Lord?" A demon shouted in a low voice, wanting to chase after him.

But Chu Hao had already left with the Great Peng, and naturally they could not find any trace of him.

When they came out of the Avici Hell, Chu Hao looked at the very embarrassed Great Peng and handed him a black, seed-like object: "Eat it, it will be of great use to your injuries."

The Great Peng looked grateful and immediately ate it.

The moment he ate it, his true spirit was instantly imprisoned by the power released by the black seed. A mysterious and infinite aura filled his body. Although his injuries were healing, at this moment, his true spirit was also restricted.

The Great Peng's expression changed drastically, and he looked at Chu Hao in disbelief.

Chu Hao smiled slightly.

It turned out that he had the Golden-Winged Great Peng participate in the trial for this step.

Let him take the Soul Seed, and then take this opportunity to directly reach a contract with him, so that he could guarantee that he would not betray him.

Now, he was the master of the Golden-Winged Great Peng, and it could no longer violate his will.
