Jackal Soldier Lesser Yaoguais
Location
Encountered on the critical path during Chapter 6.
Description
The newly forged soul, having barely accustomed to his armors yet, heard that the Jade Emperor, in his fury, had dispatched a hundred thousand celestial soldiers to descend and subdue yaoguais. Fearing that he was not yet skilled with his weapon, the celestial captain gave him an iron bow and instructed him to stay at the rear and shoot arrows.
Descending to the mortal realm with the others, he saw banners flying and weapons gleaming. Eighteen celestial nets covered the mountains, and it seemed all celestial beings, be their constellation officers or admiral had come to surround the area tight. The battle raged with relentless fury, sand and stones whirling through the air. The sky and earth darkened as dust and debris filled the universe.
The newly recruited celestial soldier had barely fought when a powerful force stunned him. When he awoke, he found himself in front of a tower behind the Tushita Palace corridor. Two Daoist boys were carrying him inside. A Daoist boy greeted him with a smile, “Luckily, your armor isn’t ruined, or you couldn’t be healed.” As he spoke, the boy pushed him into a mold, arranged the armor pieces, and poured boiling metal over him again.
Emerging from the quenching pool, a lightning flash sent him back to the battlefield.
Dazed and still in pain, the new soldier stood on the battlefield, unsure of which celestial deity had struck him again with a golden wave, and he found himself once more in front of the Tushita Palace tower.
After that, he was burned, drowned, and shocked, but each time his armor remained whole. Hence, he was reforged and sent back to the battlefield again.
Unbearable! He grabbed a weapon from the ground, finally resolving that he could not suffer alone. Rebelling against the Celestial Court seemed the only way out.
Poetry
The mighty general, like thunderclouds,
Descends with lightning to the mortal crowds.
In battles fierce, both sides contend,
Life was hard, and hardships transcend.
