Chapter 327 Disciples of the Chan and Jie Sects

Besides the seven second-generation disciples who served as attendants to the Seven Immortals, the Jie Sect also had many third-generation disciples, including Wen Zhong, who had been serving as an official in the Shang Dynasty's imperial court.

Riding a golden-eyed camel and carrying a Qiankun bag at his waist, it was none other than Yu Yuan, whose master was the Golden Spirit Mother and who was a fellow disciple of Wen Zhong, along with his disciple Yu Hua.

You might not be familiar with Yu Yuan, but Yu Hua defeated Tu Xingsun in the Investiture of the Gods in his previous life. However, he was bound by the Immortal Binding Rope by his master, Ju Liusun, a second-generation disciple of the Chan Sect. Although he escaped back to Biyou Palace by using water magic, he was bound by the Immortal Binding Rope again and was eventually killed by Lu Ya's Immortal Slaying Flying Knife.

There's also the very famous Fire Spirit Mother, a third-generation disciple of the Jie Sect. Her master is Daoist Duobao, who is the eldest disciple of the Jie Sect. Fire Spirit Mother can be considered the eldest disciple of the third generation of direct lineage. Judging from the heat emanating from her body, she clearly cultivates fire-based magic and possesses extraordinary personal magical power, at least at the Golden Immortal level.

Besides these third-generation disciples, there were also some fourth-generation disciples. Although their cultivation levels ranged from Celestial Immortal to Profound Immortal, they were all carrying strange and unusual treasures, making them seem like troublemakers.

Besides the second, third, and fourth generation disciples sent from the Jie Sect this time, there are also quite a few people who cultivate and become officials in the Southern Jambudvipa.

Zhang Kui, an outer disciple of the Jie Sect, served as the garrison commander of Mianchi County. He possessed the art of earth-walking, allowing him to travel 1,500 li in a day, and rode a one-horned black smoke beast. In his previous life, during the Investiture of the Gods, he killed Huang Feihu, Chong Heihu, Cui Ying, Wen Pin, and Jiang Xiong, who had defected to the Western Zhou Dynasty. He also fought a fierce battle with Tu Xingsun and Yang Jian, which ended in a draw.

Finally, Yang Jian used his transformation to kill Zhang Kui's mount, the Unicorn Black Smoke Beast, and his mother, thus bewitching Zhang Kui. Afterwards, he joined forces with Wei Hu and Yang Ren to fight Zhang Kui, who then fled in haste. Yang Jian obtained the "Pointing to the Earth to Turn it into Steel" technique from Ju Liusun, a second-generation disciple of the Chan Sect, and used it to trap Zhang Kui. In the end, Zhang Kui died under Wei Hu's Demon-Subduing Pestle.

After the Investiture of the Gods, he was named the Seven Killing Star. His personal strength was absolutely on par with Yang Jian, making him arguably the top official in the Shang Dynasty besides Grand Tutor Wen of the Jie Sect.

Not only did he come this time, but his wife Gao Lanying also came. Gao Lanying was no ordinary woman; she was an extremely powerful female cultivator. She carried a gourd on her back containing forty-nine Sun God Needles, which were incredibly lethal. Ordinary immortals couldn't even withstand the power of her Sun God Needles.

Besides Zhang Kui and Gao Lanying, the four demon generals stationed at Jiameng Pass also arrived. The four were the Four Heavenly Kings who were appointed to guard the Heavenly Gate after the Great Calamity of the Investiture of the Gods.

The Southern Heavenly King Mo Liqing possesses the magic weapon Qingyun Sword and is associated with the wind; the Eastern Heavenly King Mo Lihai possesses the magic weapon Biyu Pipa and is associated with the harmony; the Northern Heavenly King Mo Lihong possesses the magic weapon Hunyuan Umbrella and is associated with the rain; and the Western Heavenly King Mo Lishou possesses the magic weapon Huahu Marten and is associated with the smoothness.

Although the four died at the hands of Yang Jian and Huang Tianhua, their cultivation was definitely not weak; otherwise, they would not have been appointed as the Four Heavenly Kings guarding the Heavenly Gate of the Heavenly Court.

Gao Jineng, the commander of the Five Armies Rescue Team at Jinji Ridge, also arrived. Jinji Ridge was the hermitage of the powerful Kong Xuan, and Gao Jineng was his deputy. He possessed the extraordinary Centipede Bee Bag, which he used to sting Huang Tianhua's Jade Kirin during the Investiture of the Gods in his previous life, taking the opportunity to kill Huang Tianhua. Later, the Centipede Bee Bag was destroyed by Chong Heihu's Iron-Beaked Divine Eagle. He fought valiantly against Huang Feihu, Chong Heihu, Cui Ying, Wen Pin, and Jiang Xiong before dying. After his death, he was enshrined as the Black Fiend Star.

Although his personal strength was slightly inferior to Nezha's, his ability to kill Huang Tianhua showed that he was quite remarkable. He must have known that Kong Xuan was a powerful figure, otherwise he would never have willingly submitted to him as a commander of the Five Armies.

Bian Ji of Lintong Pass was the son of Bian Jinlong, the deputy general of Lintong Pass. He wielded a halberd, was proficient in unorthodox arts, and possessed a secret treasure, the White Bone Soul-Summoning Banner, which could absorb people's souls and was extremely powerful. In the previous life, after the great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods, Jiang Ziya conferred the title of Heavenly Killing Star upon him at Qishan.

Hong Jin, the general of Sanshan Pass, was a mighty general of the Shang Dynasty. He was proficient in the Five Elements Taoist arts. In his previous life, he led troops to conquer Xiqi. After his defeat, he surrendered to Zhou and married Princess Longji.

During the battle against the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, he and his wife, Princess Longji, were killed by the Golden Spirit Mother. After the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods, when Jiang Ziya conferred titles upon the gods, he named Hong Jin the Dragon Virtue Star and Princess Longji the Red Phoenix Star.

His subordinate, the vanguard officer Ji Kang, was also a formidable figure, skilled in a magical technique that produced a black aura above his head, from which a dog's head appeared, which he used to injure people. After the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods, he was bestowed the title of Heavenly Dog Star.

The subordinate general Long Anji was skilled with a large axe and possessed a treasure called "Four Limbs Melting." This treasure consisted of two rings that flipped left and right like a Tai Chi symbol, forming a double lock of Yin and Yang that made a clanging sound. It could be heard and seen, causing the bones and tendons of the entire body to disintegrate and become limp. He died at the hands of Nezha and was enshrined as the Barrier Star after the Investiture of the Gods.

Zhang Guifang of Qinglong Pass, the General Commander of Qinglong Pass under the Great Shang Dynasty, possesses the art of summoning souls and causing people to fall from their horses. After the Investiture of the Gods, he was named the Star of Misfortune. Qiu Yin, the General Commander of Qinglong Pass, is currently the Great General of Divine Might under the Great Shang Dynasty. He is an earthworm that has attained enlightenment and can spit out white light with black smoke and red beads, specifically to absorb people's souls. After the Investiture of the Gods, he was named the Star of Piercing Rope. Feng Lin, the vanguard officer, can spit out red beads and capture people with black smoke, and was named the Star of Hanging Guest.

Chen Tong, the current garrison commander of Tongguan, is the younger brother of Chen Wu, the garrison commander of Chuanyun Pass. He possesses the Fire Dragon Spear. When Huang Tianhua first came out of seclusion to fight against Chen Tong, he used the Water and Fire Basket to take away Chen Tong's Fire Dragon Spear and died under his Moye Sword. After the Investiture of the Gods, he was enfeoffed as Tianluo Star.

Ma Zhong was the deputy general of Xu Fang, the general of Chuanyun Pass. Also known as the Divine Smoke General, he possessed unorthodox magic and could spew black smoke from his mouth to injure people. When Jiang Ziya launched his eastern campaign against King Zhou, Ma Zhong blocked the Zhou army at Chuanyun Pass. His magic was broken by Nezha, who burned him to death with the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover. After the Investiture of the Gods, he was enfeoffed as the Earth Net Star.

In addition, there are the Nine Luminaries, the Twenty-Eight Mansions, the Thirty-Six Heavenly Generals, and the Seventy-Two Earthly Fiends, all of whom are disciples of the Jie Sect. In his previous life, the Guide Daoist took away three thousand mortals from the Jie Sect with a Qiankun Bag, which shows that the Jie Sect indeed had three thousand disciples. It is not unreasonable to say that "ten thousand immortals come to pay homage".

The rise of Western Buddhism can be said to be built on the foundation of the Jie Sect. It was precisely during the Investiture of the Gods that the two Western Saints plundered countless disciples of the Jie Sect, which led to the sudden rise of Western Buddhism.

It should be noted that although these disciples were only outer disciples, those who were accepted into the Jie Sect were all highly skilled and possessed considerable strength. The achievements of several eras were wiped out in an instant due to the infighting among the Three Pure Ones, and all the hard work of the Tongtian Sect Leader was in vain.

The arrival of numerous disciples from the Chan and Jie sects immediately put King Zhou's mind at ease. He instructed Shang Rong, Bigan, and others to settle everyone in the Dragon Vein region, since only the Dragon Vein could attract these disciples of saints within the entire Shang Dynasty.

As soon as everything was settled, King Zhou ordered that Shang Rong, Bigan, Wen Zhong, Jiang Ziya, Shen Gongbao, Baihe Tongzi, Fang Hui, the seven immortal attendants of the Jie Sect, and the five emperors of Huoyun Cave be invited to the palace.

King Zhou invited all the powerful immortals and great beings to his presence.

Just as Fang Hui, Wen Zhong, and the others sat down, King Zhou walked in. Everyone hurriedly stood up and bowed to King Zhou: "Fang Hui of the Chan Sect (Jiang Ziya, Shen Gongbao...) and Huo Ling of the Jie Sect (Zhang Kui, Yu Yuan...) greet the Human Emperor."

Although King Zhou was only a mortal, the golden dragon of the Shang Dynasty's imperial fortune behind him was enough to command respect from everyone. Not to mention that King Zhou was the emperor of the human race. Many disciples of the Chan and Jie sects were originally from the human race. Although they are now immortals who have achieved great things and have become disciples of the saintly sects, they dare not say that they have separated themselves from the human race.

As the saying goes, blood is thicker than water; even broken bones are still connected by tendons. This is especially true for the human race today. Although there are constant internal conflicts, they are generally very united.

King Zhou nodded. "Everyone, please sit down!"

Although his cultivation level was not high, he had been the Human Emperor for many years. As the saying goes, it is easy for people in high positions to cultivate their temperament. In addition, he was protected by the Golden Dragon of Human Fortune, so his aura was in no way inferior to the disciples of the saints present.
