Englische Beschreibung
Welcome to the heavenly realm. Upon your arrival, you would be greeted by the heavenly guards. After passing through the Heavenly Gates, you’ll make your way to the Ling Xiao Hall, where you can seek an audience with the Jade Emperor himself. While in heaven, choose your words carefully, and be respectful to everyone you meet. The deities in the heavenly realm are endowed with special powers to help mankind or provide guidance, but some are mischievous and may not hesitate to conjure up a trick or two if they sense any disrespect.

This book, Legends of the Heavenly Gods, traces the many legends and stories about the deities residing in the heavenly realm. You will enjoy the following stories:
– how a mortal man was chosen to become the Jade Emperor, to rule over Heaven, Hell and the mortal world;
– how his wife, the Heavenly Mother, felt about taking over the throne for a day;
– how the Monkey God was subdued by God Er Lang;
– how Er Lang fought a ferocious dragon that was terrorising a village;
– how the Fairy of Ninth Heaven assisted the Yellow Emperor, and enabled him to defeat Chi You, the leader of the Jiu Li Tribe.

This book provides a quick and exciting introduction to the many goings-on in the heavenly realm. From the Jade Emperor to the Yellow Emperor, from the Monkey King and Ne Zha to the Four Heavenly Guardians and the 100 heavenly guards, you will be thrilled, enlightened and fascinated, all at once!
