Chapter 25: Meeting the Giant Spirit God again, a tour of heaven

The task was not completed. After coming out of the imperial palace, Gu Xiu was thinking about which key links were missing.

Hearing people talking about the demon in the imperial palace after dinner, he suddenly realized.

"Currently, Chaoge is deeply influenced by public opinion. If you want to calm it down, you can only start from public opinion."

Thinking of this, he immediately spread the news of his entry into the palace today.

Soon, there was another version in Chaoge City: villains spread the news that there was a demon in the imperial palace, wanting to make Cheng Tang's foundation unstable, but fortunately, it was pointed out by an immortal.

The people in Chaoge City were all proud of being merchants, and many of them shared a common hatred and cursed these villains.

"Ding!"

"Successfully destroyed Yun Zhongzi's plot, task completed. Congratulations to the host for obtaining 100,000 Great Dao merits!"

Hearing the task prompt, Gu Xiu smiled slightly.

"Finally completed. These Great Dao merits must be used well. As for how to use them, I will think about it slowly when I go back."

Looking at the prosperous Chaoge, he thought about the Investiture of the Gods.

Among the formal disciples of the Jie Sect, only Wen Zhong is an official in Shang.

The fact that the Jie Sect disciples were defeated one by one has a lot to do with Wen Zhong.

If it weren't for him, one by one running to move reinforcements, the Jie Sect disciples would not have come out of the mountains at all.

Moving reinforcements is one thing, but not moving more, but rather like the Calabash Brothers saving their grandfather, one defeated and then asking for the next one. No matter how powerful the Jie Sect disciples are, they cannot defeat four hands with two fists, leading to being broken one by one. Wen Zhong bears great responsibility for this.

Gu Xiu was thinking, when Jiang Ziya comes down the mountain to Investiture of the Gods, and Wen Zhong returns from the North Sea, if the situation is not right, what will happen if Wen Zhong is locked up? He was suddenly looking forward to it.

Seeing that the matter was over, Gu Xiu did not linger and set off to return.

When passing by a large mountain, he heard someone calling him from below.

"Fellow Daoist above, please stay!"

These words made Gu Xiu's tiger body shake, and he remembered a person. When the thought arose, he intended to act on behalf of heaven.

He pushed aside the clouds and looked down.

On a hilltop stood a person with a burly and sturdy body, as tall as a mountain.

A pair of copper-bell-like eyeballs revealed majesty and dominance, giving people a sense of oppression that was not angry but majestic.

Seeing the person below, Gu Xiu was stunned.

"Isn't this the Giant Spirit God?"

Thinking about it, he landed on the ground.

The Giant Spirit God saw Gu Xiu hear his words and land on the ground, and just wanted to step forward to express his gratitude, but was stunned when he saw Gu Xiu, and stammered.

"Im... Immortal, why is it you?"

The Giant Spirit God wanted to cry; last time he was injured by Gu Xiu, breaking his two immortal roots, his strength was greatly damaged, which led to him being unable to go to heaven and return to report.

Seeing someone passing by from the sky, he wanted to ask for help to take him to heaven so that he could repair his immortal roots, never expecting it to be the person who injured him in the past.

Gu Xiu said indifferently: "Giant Spirit God, why are you here instead of going back to heaven? Although a day in heaven is a year on earth, you have been staying in the human world for almost a year, right? In heaven, it has been a day. Does this count as passive sabotage? Are you not afraid that the Heavenly Emperor will deduct your salary?"

The Giant Spirit God was embarrassed: "Immortal, my two immortal roots were destroyed by you before, my strength was greatly damaged, and I couldn't go to heaven. Staying in the human world to slowly repair them might take decades or hundreds of years. I just happened to see a fellow Daoist passing by, so I wanted to call him down to take me to heaven, never expecting it to be you, Immortal."

Gu Xiu thought to himself, no wonder the Heavenly Court had no movement since he took Yang Jian away; it turned out that the Giant Spirit God couldn't go to heaven.

"The poor Taoist has always been happy to help others. Your current situation was caused by the poor Taoist. Since we met, it means we have a connection. The poor Taoist will help you and take you to heaven, so that you can return to the Heavenly Court to report."

Since going to the Three Immortals Island, Yang Jian has been living too comfortably.

He intended to increase Yang Jian's sense of crisis, just in time to let the Giant Spirit God return to report, so that the Heavenly Emperor would send more heavenly soldiers and generals to practice with Yang Jian.

The Giant Spirit God was stunned, thinking he had misheard.

"This, this Immortal, how can this small god trouble you."

Gu Xiu showed a kind smile: "It's no trouble. The matter at that time was a last resort, but one thing is one thing. The poor Taoist is clear."

"Then many thanks, Immortal." Staying in the human world is not a thing either. Although he didn't know what Gu Xiu wanted to do, as long as he could go to heaven, the Giant Spirit God didn't mind getting on a pirate ship.

Gu Xiu smiled, summoned an auspicious cloud, and took the Giant Spirit God to fly toward the sky.

The Heavenly Realm and the human world have an invisible chasm, which is an insurmountable gap. Breaking through the chasm is the Heavenly Realm.

If you look down from the Heavenly Realm, you will find that the time flow in the human world is very fast, so there is a saying that a day in heaven is a year on earth.

Arriving at the chasm between heaven and earth, the Giant Spirit God was full of joy; as long as he crossed it, it would be the Heavenly Realm.

"Immortal, why did we stop? Why don't we go to the Heavenly Realm?"

"Don't rush. A day in heaven is a year on earth. My time is tight, so I shouldn't stay long. I will return after taking you back to the Heavenly Realm."

As he said this, Gu Xiu took the Giant Spirit God and broke through the barrier between heaven and earth, arriving at the Heavenly Realm.

As soon as he arrived in the Heavenly Realm, the Giant Spirit God was glowing, and he couldn't hide his ecstasy.

"Many thanks, Immortal."

Gu Xiu smiled indifferently: "The poor Taoist has always been the most trustworthy. I said I would take you up, so I took you up. Alright, the poor Taoist will say goodbye here. Remember to report the situation to the Heavenly Emperor truthfully and don't have any fraudulent behavior."

This was Gu Xiu's first time in the Heavenly Realm, but the time for the Investiture of the Gods was too tight, so he didn't dare to stay too long, fearing that if he stayed too long, there would be many variables when he went back.

After dropping a sentence that made the Giant Spirit God feel inexplicable, he came down from the Heavenly Realm.

He found that in the time it took to say a few words, a day had passed in the mortal world.

"Fortunately, I came down quickly. During the Investiture of the Gods, this time cannot be wasted."

Mount Zhongnan.

Jade Pillar Cave.

Yun Zhongzi spread rumors in Chaoge and let the ministers think that Daji was a demon. Seeing that the task was completed, he returned.

When observing on Mount Zhongnan, he found that the demon energy over Chaoge suddenly disappeared, and he was suspicious in his heart.

"Why did the demon energy of the thousand-year fox demon suddenly disappear?"

"Could it be that someone took action and killed the thousand-year fox demon?"

Yun Zhongzi frowned tightly.

"The thousand-year fox demon is an important link for my Chan Sect to weaken the fortune of the Yin Shang in the early stage. If something happens, it will be bad."

He intended to go and see what was going on.

When he came to Chaoge, he found that there was suddenly another version of the story in Chaoge City.

"Villains spread the news that there was a demon in the imperial palace, wanting to ruin the foundation of Cheng Tang, but fortunately, it was pointed out by an immortal."

Yun Zhongzi was angry: "Actually calling us villains, how unreasonable! But who is it that ruined my good deeds."

He went to visit the imperial palace and requested to see Di Xin, but still ate a closed door, and was driven away by soldiers, saying he was a swindler and would be arrested if he dared to spread rumors again.

Looking at the direction of the imperial palace, Yun Zhongzi was a little annoyed and angry.

"A small King of Shang, really thinks he is the Human Emperor? Actually refusing to see me one after another."

He had to inquire about Su Daji's matter, and upon hearing that she was safe and sound, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"If my plan was not interfered with, it would definitely have succeeded. Looking at the current situation, it seems that the Jie Sect also has preparations."

Yun Zhongzi looked up at the direction of Mount Kunlun. He is a blessed immortal, free and easy, but his status in the Chan Sect is not as good as the Twelve Golden Immortals. He originally wanted to mix some merits in the Investiture of the Gods, but it seems that this merit is not easy to fish. ===== CHAPTER 26 =====
