Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me
Chapter 106 - 106 106 The Delicate Golden Cicada

106: Chapter 106: The Delicate Golden Cicada 106: Chapter 106: The Delicate Golden Cicada The Golden Lotus Seed that Sunlight Bodhisattva presented was a gift given to him by Saint Zhunti.

If properly cultivated, it could at least become a mid-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

With good fortune, it could even evolve into a high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

It is indeed priceless.

The other lotus seed, in contrast, has an even grander origin than the Golden Lotus Seed.

It belongs to the core of Jieyin Saint, harvested from his Innate Pure Heart Lotus.

Similarly, the Innate Bodhi seed wrapped in Buddha’s light also originated from the core of Saint Zhunti through his Innate Bodhi Tree.

Before the ancient times, the west was barren, and even scouring the entire area could not yield much valuable material; resulting in the two Saints being impoverished.

However, despite their destitution, they could not neglect their disciples.

They had finally found satisfactory disciples after much difficulty.

Naturally, they couldn’t leave their disciples empty-handed in this world.

Gritting their teeth, Jieyin and Zhunti utilized whatever local resources they had, bestowing their disciples with treasures conceived by their own bodies.

Being two of the ten Great Spirit Roots of the prehistoric world, these endowments were no ordinary.

The lowest grade among them could qualify as a mid-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, with a high probability of evolving into high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures.

Such treasures were of exquisite quality, completely suitable to be gifted.

They were unique in the prehistoric world.

Even the wealthy Sanqing could not present such treasures.

Who could guess what Sunlight Bodhisattva was thinking?

After receiving these treasures, he did not use them immediately, but saved them for this occasion.

Wasn’t this a stroke of fate?

These were just perfect for the Innate Fusang Tree.

After devouring these three treasures, the Innate Fusang Tree, also known as Sun God Staff, had the foundation to become a high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

If it was allowed to consume more Innate Spirit Roots, becoming a top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure was not entirely impossible.

No wonder Jiang Chen sympathized with the Sunlight Bodhisattva.

After giving up so many precious treasures, he was about to reap the results, only to see everything lost, ending up offering bridal clothes for others.

Who wouldn’t be spitting blood if something like this happened to them?

It’s too horrible!

Empathetically, if Jiang Chen encountered such a situation, he would at least vomit two pounds of blood.

In extreme frustration, he might even lose hope in this world.

Of course, at present, the mental state of the Sunlight Bodhisattva was definitely higher than that of Jiang Chen.

There was no need to worry about him being heartbroken or driven to madness.

However, it was certain that he was bleeding internally.

The Golden Lotus Seed, the Bodhi Seed, and the Pure Lotus Seed— though these do not constitute all of Sunlight Bodhisattva’s possessions, they are approximately half of them.

Such a loss, it wasn’t just a bleed, it was more savage than cutting flesh.

…

“We’re here!”

At the foot of the Spiritual Mountain, Jiang Xuan suddenly stopped.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Chen, who was behind him, also stopped.

Looking at Jiang Xuan, Jiang Chen intended to step forward and signal, so that the people of the Buddhist door would know that old friends have come to visit.

However, before Jiang Chen could open his mouth, a monk hurriedly rushed down from the direction of the Spiritual Mountain.

“Are you the benefactor from the Jiang Family?”

“I, the humble monk Golden Cicada, am here on my master Buddha’s instructions, to escort the two noble benefactors to the Great Thunderclap Temple.”

The monk came forward and performed a salute to the two of them.

Apparently, the Buddha sensed the arrival of the two and sent his disciple to guide them.

“Golden Cicada?”

Upon hearing the monk introduce himself, while Jiang Xuan had no particular reaction, Jiang Chen’s heart missed a beat.

Golden Cicada, wasn’t that the previous incarnation of Tang Monk?

The monk standing before him was the preincarnation of Tang Monk?

Curious, Jiang Chen carefully looked at the Golden Cicada.

The monk appeared to be sixteen or seventeen years old.

Indeed, he looked quite tender.

No, that’s not right.

He looked refined and elegant.

The young man was rather good-looking.

No wonder so many female demons threw themselves at him during his West Journey.

However, although this monk could be considered a rare beauty, he still fell short compared to Jiang Chen, lacking a touch of masculinity.

“This little face attracted so many female demons.

If they met me, wouldn’t they go crazy?” Looking at Golden Cicada’s face, inferior to his own, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but feel a bit narcissistic.

Of course, narcissism aside, Jiang Chen didn’t forget about the task at hand, examining Golden Cicada’s background.

He saw his Sea of Consciousness suddenly illuminate with a brilliant Dao light, casting towards Golden Cicada.

Instantly, most information about Golden Cicada appeared in Jiang Chen’s mind.

Despite Golden Cicada appearing sixteen or seventeen years old, the soul residing within him had lived for tens of thousands of years.

Golden Cicada, the second disciple of the Buddha, evolved from an Ancient Golden Cicada.

He had reached the status of learning the Dao tens of thousands of years ago.

Moreover, his cultivation had reached the peak of Taiyi Golden Immortal.

He was a significant expert.

As for whether eating his flesh could grant immortality, Jiang Chen wasn’t sure.

But one thing he was certain of was that Golden Cicada was perfect for refining into a puppet.

The Ancient Golden Cicada family had a unique divine ability called Golden Cicada Shedding.

This was a life-saving skill possessing the power to deceive the heavens and cross the sea.

Any danger could be avoided through this Divine Ability.

That is to say, refining this Divine Ability would be like having an additional life, which was outstandingly brilliant.

The Golden Cicada family, due to this divine ability, suffered a catastrophe.

Who doesn’t want to learn how to save their lives?

But the more powerful the Divine Ability, the more challenging it is to cultivate.

Given the magic of Golden Cicada shedding, few people could learn it.

Over time, some decided to target the Golden Cicada family.

Wasn’t Golden Cicada Shedding the hereditary Divine Ability of the Golden Cicada family?

What was the point of cultivation?

Directly refining the Golden Cicada into a clone would naturally acquire this Divine Ability, would it not?

With this thought, the Golden Cicada family faced catastrophe.

The strength of the Golden Cicada family couldn’t resist the crazed masses.

Soon, they were captured, almost to the point of extinction, and were reduced to becoming puppets.

The Golden Cicada family,

Because of this, they became extinct in the prehistoric world.

Unexpectedly, there was still one who escaped the net in the Buddhist door.

While Jiang Chen was pondering, his Dao mirror completed the analysis of Golden Cicada, and the cultivation method of the Divine Ability Golden Cicada Shedding flowed into his mind.

After devouring the Netherworld bead, the ability of the Dao Mirror was further enhanced.

Not only could it reflect the residual Dao patterns in Heaven and Earth, but it could also reflect the cultivator himself, analyzing their Divine Ability and cultivation method.

Using Golden Cicada, Jiang Chen tested the enhanced capabilities of the Dao mirror.

The result was undoubtedly pleasing.

He not only found out about Golden Cicada’s origins but also obtained the cultivation method of Golden Cicada.

It was quite a significant gain.

If not for Jiang Chen’s inadequate realm, when the Dao mirror reflected just now, it wouldn’t have shown just the Divine Ability of Golden Cicada Shedding but all of Golden Cicada’s memories.

The might of the Dao mirror was terrifying!

…

“Please lead the way, little master!” Jiang Xuan politely uttered to Golden Cicada and followed him towards the Great Thunderclap Temple.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen hurriedly followed.
