Journey to the West: Tang Monk Conquers Everything

Chapter 177: The Maddened Heavenly King



"Master, I understand..."

After the master and disciple properly discussed the specific operational procedures, Sun Wukong released the bound Jiang Liu and then plucked a strand of his hair, transforming it into Jiang Liu's appearance and tied it to the column in place of Jiang Liu.

Then, with a point of his finger, he transformed Jiang Liu into the appearance of a Corpse Demon and left him in the cave dwelling before leaving.

"Hey, the demon inside, listen up! Return my master, return my master at once!"

In the silent dwelling, many Corpse Demons were resting, when suddenly, in the dead of night, a loud shout came from outside the dwelling.

Along with the shouting, thump, thump, thump, it was clear someone was knocking on the dwelling's door.

The handsome man opened his eyes calmly, unflustered and unpanicked, clearly prepared for this scene.

He stood up and after seeing that Jiang Liu was still tied up by ropes, he was reassured, then led his group of Little Demons straight outside the dwelling.

"Where did this wild monkey come from!? Daring to cause trouble in front of my dwelling!?" The handsome man, seeing Sun Wukong outside the dwelling, short and thin, disdainfully shouted.

"Hmph, you ignorant demon, you actually dared to kidnap I, Old Sun's master!" Being called a wild monkey made Sun Wukong's fur bristle, and he took out the Jingu Bang immediately, saying annoyed.

"Hmph, if you've come, then come, do you think I am afraid of you!?" Seeing Sun Wukong's Jingu Bang in hand, the handsome man was not fazed, raising his hand to take out a long spear to meet Sun Wukong's advance.

By the side, numerous Corpse Demons all shouted in unison, cheering for the handsome man.

With a bang, the Jingu Bang collided with the long spear in the man's hand, Sun Wukong's figure remained completely unmoved, whereas the man who was full of vigor just a moment ago was sent flying by Sun Wukong's blow.

The shouting of these Corpse Demons, like being choked, stopped abruptly.

Clearly, they had not anticipated that their Great King and this monkey would be so mismatched in strength!

It was a complete rout!

"Heh heh heh, you demon, you're only full of hot air!" After sweeping the handsome man away with his staff, Sun Wukong scornfully laughed.

As he spoke, he leaped forwards towards the other, raising the Jingu Bang again high above his head.

"This dead monkey has been suppressed for five hundred years! Yet he is still so formidable! Could his strength be approaching the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal!?"

Swept away with one move, the handsome man cursed inwardly. The imposing aura was no less than during the havoc in Heavenly Palace five hundred years ago.

However, he never thought he could actually fight the Great Sage Equalling Heaven, so although he was shocked, he was not in disarray.

The Bodhisattva had already bestowed a Dharma Treasure upon him. With a thought, the handsome man raised his hand, and a Black Lotus as dark as ink appeared.

However, seeing the Black Lotus, Sun Wukong remained indifferent, lifting his Jingu Bang high again and smashed it down fiercely.

The Jingu Bang, which grew in the wind, turned into a long, thick iron rod plummeting down with the might of shattering mountains and rivers.

Casting his mana, the handsome man recited mantras while he offered up the Black Lotus, which also swelled with the wind and met the Jingu Bang head-on, fearless.

"Now's the time!" Jiang Liu, who had transformed into the appearance of a Corpse Demon and was hiding among the demon hoard, witnessing this scene, moved his spirit, lifting his hand and pointing at the handsome man.

Silencing Zen.

The handsome man suddenly felt the mana within his body become stagnant, like dead water, impossible to mobilize.

Of course, without the drive of mana, the Black Lotus in mid-air that had been raised began to shrink back to the size of a palm and fell.

"No!"

Watching the Jingu Bang fall with its heaven-splitting might, the handsome man screamed in horror. Without the ability to summon mana or harness the power of the Black Lotus, how could he face Sun Wukong?

All he could do was watch the massive iron rod crush down like a sky-supporting giant pillar.

Upon impact, the ground seemed to tremble violently, and a thunderous roar made the earth crack open a deep, long gorge, showing that Sun Wukong truly held nothing back with this blow.

As the ground shook, many Corpse Demons even fell to the ground with a scream.

As the Jingu Bang was raised, Sun Wukong's eyes were as red as blood, giving off an evil, ominous, and violent aura; clearly, he had murderous intent.

Having been suppressed under Five Elements Mountain for five hundred years, Sun Wukong had been holding back this resentment for just as long. After talking with Jiang Liu, knowing that this "Evil Demon" was actually one of the Immortals and Buddhas from heaven, he felt it was time to collect some interest, and Sun Wukong was naturally not courteous!

"Wait, wait, I am..."

In Jiang Liu's eyes, the staff mercilessly struck down, and the handsome man was already in dire straits, with only half of his health bar remaining. Seeing the murderous look in Sun Wukong's eyes, he shouted in terror.

Sheep Transformation Technique!

But, would Jiang Liu give him a chance to speak!? Hearing the handsome man's shout, with another point of his finger, he triggered the Sheep Transformation Technique.

Instantly, the handsome young man's form changed into a harmless little lamb, his urgent words turning into urgent "bleats," his eyes filled with confusion and bewilderment.

Boom!

This strike continued to fall, causing another terrible tremor as the young man, now in the form of a small lamb, was directly smashed to the ground.

In Jiang Liu's eyes, the health bar was emptied, plunging into a critically injured and dying state.

"Humph..." Seeing the handsome young man severely injured and unconscious, Sun Wukong let out a cold laugh, and the Jingu Bang was raised again.

"Great Sage, hold your hand!" However, at this critical moment, a loud shout suddenly rang out.

"Just as Master predicted! At the critical moment, someone will come to stop I, Old Sun!"

Hearing the voice in the sky, Sun Wukong sneered in his heart, but turned a deaf ear, and his Jingu Bang fell once more.

Ding!

However, at this moment, a Demon-Subduing Treasure Sword transformed into a streak of light, blocking in front of the Jingu Bang.

Seeing Sun Wukong's murderous appearance, Mo Liqing, hiding in the shadows, was shocked. He summoned the Demon-Subduing Treasure Sword he had borrowed and blocked Sun Wukong's strike, feeling a sense of relief. Fortunately, he had felt uneasy these past days and had borrowed his brother's sword.

Whoosh!

However, just as Mo Liqing's attention was all on Sun Wukong, blocking his attack with the Demon-Subduing Treasure Sword, Jiang Liu, hidden in the shadows, instantly activated the ability of the Flashing Brilliance Shoes.

Transforming from the appearance of a Corpse Demon back to his original form, Jiang Liu's figure flashed next to the unconscious handsome man, then grabbed him, and a low shout came from his heart: Palm Thunder!

Brilliant blue lightning spouted from Jiang Liu's palm, instantly sweeping over the handsome man's entire body.

The man, whose health bar had already been emptied, fell into unconsciousness and immediately died.

Upon death, he reverted to his true form, revealing himself to be a gigantic Floral Mink.

Notice: Acquired Experience Points 26800.
Stay tuned with empire

Notice: Completed Mission "Vengeance Is Not Overnight," acquired Experience Points 200000, received Legendary Level Treasure Chest *1.

Notice, level increased by 1, current level 28.

As the Floral Mink was killed, a continuous stream of system notifications echoed in Jiang Liu's mind.

The Experience Points gained from killing the Floral Mink, combined with the 200,000 Experience Points from the mission reward, and the Experience Points earned from battling monsters and cultivating during the past half a month, finally allowed Jiang Liu's level to reach level 28.

Without time to pay attention to his own level and the rewards from completing the mission, Jiang Liu lifted the Floral Mink's corpse, which was pressing down on quite a few items. He reached out and collected all of them into his storage space in one go.

After all, it was a being of the Heavenly Immortal Realm, killing it should drop some good items, right?

Of course, good items weren't just from killing monsters either. After putting down the corpse of the Floral Mink, Jiang Liu searched the nearby grass for a moment.

Soon, a palm-sized Black Lotus was found by Jiang Liu, and he collected it as well.

It was the Black Lotus that allowed the Floral Mink to resist Sun Wukong's attack. Clearly, it was the true treasure.

"Taiyi Realm!?"

Putting aside what Jiang Liu was doing, Sun Wukong's Jingu Bang pressed down on the Demon-Subduing Sword in Mo Liqing's hand, his eyes slightly narrowing, and soon after, the corners of his mouth curled up with a mocking smile.

"Even if we are both in the Taiyi Realm, your cultivation level is still far inferior to mine, only one or two percent of I, Old Sun's! How could you be I, Old Sun's opponent?" As he spoke, Sun Wukong's Jingu Bang vibrated, directly sending Mo Liqing flying out.

Mo Liqing, sent flying, had no intention of entangling with Sun Wukong. His figure moved and landed next to the Floral Mink.

Looking at the Floral Mink, which was already dead and had reverted to its original form, his eyes filled with hatred as he glared at Jiang Liu.

"You killed it!? I will have you pay with your life!" Mo Liqing's eyes were fierce, and he shouted loudly as he pounced towards Jiang Liu, raising the Demon-Subduing Treasure Sword and hacking it fiercely onto Jiang Liu's body.

This strike startled Jiang Liu.

With Silencing Zen, Transformation Technique, and even the special effect of the Flashing Brilliance Shoes on cooldown, how could Jiang Liu possibly dodge!? He could only manage to cast a Vajra Mantra defense for himself in desperation.

"This is bad!" Sun Wukong's face changed, and he had not expected Mo Liqing to attack his master in a frenzy. He wanted to rescue him, but it was already too late!

However, as the Demon-Subduing Sword struck Jiang Liu's body, there was a tearing sound, and the Golden Cicada Buddha Robe Jiang Liu wore tore open with a large gash.

Jiang Liu was unharmed, completely intact, but seeing the tear on the Golden Cicada Buddha Robe, Jiang Liu understood that even with Vajra Mantra negating 80% of the damage, Mo Liqing was powerful enough to kill him instantly.

Otherwise, the special effect of the Golden Cicada Buddha Robe would not have been triggered automatically.

Seeing Jiang Liu unharmed, with only a tear on his Buddha Robe, Mo Liqing was stunned, and he raised the Demon-Subduing Treasure Sword again...
