Journey to the West: Tang Monk Conquers Everything

"Monkey Brother, I'm here to lend you a hand!"

Seeing that Jiang Liu and Sun Wukong had made their moves, Zhu Bajie shouted loudly and simultaneously raised the Supreme Treasure Golden Rake in his hand, ferociously smashing it towards the Medicine Buddha.

Sha Wujing said nothing, but he did not stand idly by either. He raised his Blood-Transforming Divine Blade and slashed towards the Medicine Buddha.

In an instant, the Medicine Buddha felt the pressure on him increasing abruptly.

With Sun Wukong's level nearly catching up to the Medicine Buddha, combined with the golden platform and the amplification from the Strengthening Demon-Subduing Mantra, Sun Wukong alone could match the Medicine Buddha in terms of combat power.

At that moment, with Jiang Liu supporting by the side and both Sha Wujing and Zhu Bajie joining in, naturally, the Medicine Buddha was immediately suppressed.

Back when Guanyin fell into demon possession, it took a great deal of effort for Jiang Liu and his team to combat Guanyin.

However now, the strength of Jiang Liu and his companions had increased significantly, and dealing with the Medicine Buddha wasn't much of a challenge.

It must be said that as a leading figure in medicine within the Buddhist Sect, the Medicine Buddha indeed possessed many miraculous elixirs.

There were elixirs to remove the effects of the Weakness Talisman.

There were elixirs to increase attack power.

There were also elixirs to enhance defensive abilities…

Though he wasn't a support profession, his elixirs could play a supportive role in battles.

However, with Jiang Liu and the others joining forces, even with his many miraculous elixirs, the Medicine Buddha was still overwhelmingly outmatched.

In the melee, it could be seen that the health bar above the Medicine Buddha's head was gradually decreasing.

About the time it took to drink a cup of tea, the health bar had already dropped by about a third.

Of course, the Medicine Buddha was still a Daluo Golden Immortal in terms of cultivation level, and his combat strength was also very formidable.

Not only had his health bar decreased, but the health bars of Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing had also dropped somewhat.

However, Sun Wukong's health bar showed no change.

With the Vajra Indestructible Body, Sun Wukong's defensive power was still incredibly strong against an opponent of almost the same level.

"This won't do. If it goes on like this, I will undoubtedly be defeated!"

After fighting for the time it took to drink a cup of tea, and feeling his injuries worsening, the Medicine Buddha's mind grew increasingly anxious.

He hadn't expected the Scripture Seeking team to be so formidable.

After pondering for a moment, the Medicine Buddha's gaze swept past Jiang Liu.

As the saying goes, to capture the thieves first capture the king.

If he wanted to protect himself, the best tactic might be to subdue Xuanzang and force Sun Wukong and the others to act?

In terms of cultivation level, Xuanzang's abilities seemed weaker.

More importantly, he was always using Divine Skills from a distance to support Sun Wukong and the others, indicating his own combat ability must be lacking.

With this thought, the Medicine Buddha made up his mind, then reached into his robe and directly pulled out and crushed a purple elixir.

With a bang!

As the purple elixir was crushed, a dense purple smoke suddenly exploded, enveloping several miles around and reducing visibility to less than an arm's length.

Even Divine Sense was blocked by this purple smoke.

"That Medicine Buddha actually has smoke bombs, uh, Smoke Bomb Pills? His elixirs have many functionalities!"

Seeing the effects of the Medicine Buddha's elixir, Jiang Liu was slightly startled, and at the same time, he couldn't help but mutter to himself in annoyance.

"Don't move!"

Just as Jiang Liu was muttering to himself, he suddenly felt a tightening in his back.

It turned out that taking advantage of the Smoke Bomb Pill's effect, the Medicine Buddha had snuck up behind Jiang Liu and had placed the Vajra Staff directly against Jiang Liu's back.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Sun Wukong's Ruyi Golden Cudgel in his hand grew longer and spun around swiftly, as if it turned into an electric fan.

With the rapid spinning of the golden cudgel in his hand, naturally, a fierce wind arose.

Under this wild wind, the dense purple smoke around them began to be swiftly dispelled.

In just a moment, all the purple smoke was blown away, naturally exposing everyone's figures.

"Master!"

Seeing Jiang Liu cornered with the Medicine Buddha's weapon against his back, Zhu Bajie's face dramatically changed, exclaiming in alarm.

"Heh, you old bald donkey, if you are capable, stop using my master as a bargaining chip and fight me fair and square!" Sun Wukong also appeared a bit hesistant to strike, unable to restrain himself from shouting loudly.

"Hmph, I have no interest in continuing this battle with you! Everyone, stand down!" Holding Jiang Liu, it could be said he held a protective talisman, and the Medicine Buddha naturally wasn't easily going to let go, inevitably shouting at Sun Wukong and the others loudly.

Clearly, he planned to use Jiang Liu as a hostage to first ensure his safe departure from the area,

"Uh, Old Zen Master, although your idea isn't wrong, you seem to have misunderstood something!"

Held like a hostage by the Medicine Buddha, Jiang Liu remained completely calm and composed as he spoke.

"What misunderstanding are you referring to?" Gently exerting force in his hand, he pressed against Jiang Liu. The Medicine Buddha asked.

"With your strength, it seems you are still not enough to pose a threat to me!" Jiang Liu said calmly.

"Ah!?" Jiang Liu's unbelievably arrogant words shocked the Medicine Buddha for a moment.

"Wukong, don't worry about me, attack!" Without explaining much, Jiang Liu shouted to Sun Wukong and the others.

Whoosh!

Following Jiang Liu's command, Sun Wukong didn't think twice, and his Jingu Bang was raised again, smashing down hard toward the Medicine Buddha.

Although he didn't understand why his master shouted like that, after so many years, he knew his master well. Since he said so, there must be his reasons, so he didn't need to overthink; he just needed to listen and act.

"It seems I must teach him a lesson!"

Watching Sun Wukong's attack descending upon him, the Medicine Buddha gritted his teeth, pulled Jiang Liu back, and at the same time, his Vajra Staff came down on Jiang Liu's back.

With a thud, it sounded like the beat of an evening bell.

The Vajra Staff hit Jiang Liu's back, as if striking an iron mountain, and the rebound force made the Medicine Buddha's palm tingle.

"What the hell? Even if it's a Vajra Indestructible Body, it shouldn't be this terrifying!" Feeling the horrific rebound force from the Vajra Staff, the Medicine Buddha couldn't believe it.

"You must be joking!?" Hit by the Medicine Buddha's attack, Jiang Liu felt no discomfort at all and sneered to himself.

The now unsealed Green Lotus Buddha Robe had a defense value as high as one billion. How could the Medicine Buddha break it?

Unbreakable unless by the Power of Sage, was it a joke!?

Kill!

Seeing Jiang Liu being hit by the Medicine Buddha's attack but remaining completely unharmed, Sun Wukong and the others were shocked, yet their attacks intensified.

Jingu Bang, Supreme Treasure Golden Rake, Blood-Transforming Divine Blade.

The three great weapons each had their methods, raining densely on the Medicine Buddha.

Under their assault, the Medicine Buddha retreated step by step, and the health bar above his head kept dropping.

At that moment, the Medicine Buddha felt utterly discouraged.

Xuanzang's defensive power is this terrifying!? How is that possible!?

"No good! I need to think of a way to escape!"

When the health bar dropped to just about a half, feeling the severity of his injuries, the Medicine Buddha murmured to himself, thinking of retreating.

After fighting for a while, seeing Sun Wukong's attacks still coming intensely, the Medicine Buddha feigned a move, pulling out a purple elixir, and crushed it directly.

Once again, a huge cloud of purple smoke exploded.

"Silencing Zen!"

Seeing the Medicine Buddha pull the same trick again, how could Jiang Liu let him have his way? He pointed a finger at him and cast the Silencing Zen Skill on the Medicine Buddha, silencing him immediately.

Shortly after, another move of the Sheep Transformation Technique came easily to his fingers, transforming the Medicine Buddha into a harmless little lamb.

Finally, he pointed the Fire Tip Spear towards the sky, Healing Holy Hand!

Boom!

A loud noise thundered as the Holy Object descended from the sky, landing heavily on the Medicine Buddha, pinning him down, immobilized.

Silencing Zen followed by Sheep Transformation Technique, and then Healing Holy Hand!

This combination of moves was already very familiar to Jiang Liu, he could even perform it with his eyes closed.

Whoosh whoosh!

Sun Wukong also reused his old trick, spinning his Jingu Bang and creating a whirlwind that scattered the purple smoke again.

Then, their continuous attacks kept landing on the Medicine Buddha.

The control time of Healing Holy Hand lasted a full 30 seconds.

During these 30 seconds, the continuous attacks came without many surprises and directly emptied the Medicine Buddha's health bar.

Notification: Gained 76 million experience points and 120,000 silver.

After the Medicine Buddha's health bar was emptied, a system notification sounded in Jiang Liu's mind.

However, before Jiang Liu could feel elated, almost simultaneously, another system notification rang out.

Notification: Level increased by 1, current level 72.

Indeed, Jiang Liu, who was just a bit short of reaching level 72, officially advanced to this level as the 76 million experience points credited to his account.

"Kill him!"

Although he was happy in his heart, his primary goal at this time was still to kill the Buddha!

Seeing that the Medicine Buddha's health bar was empty and he was left in a severely injured and unconscious state, Jiang Liu raised his Fire Tip Spear.

He cast the Lotus Spell, which fell upon the Medicine Buddha.

(PS: An outburst will start at midnight, all good!? )
