Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me
Chapter 111 - 111 111 Great Opportunity

111: Chapter 111: Great Opportunity 111: Chapter 111: Great Opportunity “Judging from its energy, it is now comparable to a high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.”

“Moreover, how many high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures are there in the entire Jiang Family?

No, it should be asked how many such treasures the Human Race could possibly possess?”

“Definitely no more than one hundred, maybe even less.”

Although Jiang Xuan was complaining, the sour tone in his voice couldn’t be concealed.

He was really envious.

There were just a few high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures in the Jiang Family, all of which were controlled by the Flame Emperor and several ancestors.

He had none.

Now that Jiang Chen, still so young, could possess a high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, how could Jiang Xuan, who doesn’t have one, not be envious?

Moreover, now the Sun God Staff isn’t fully transformed and there’s still potential for further advancement by injecting more resources, possibly becoming a legendary superior Innate Spiritual Treasure.

As far as Jiang Xuan knows, there are very few superior Innate Spiritual Treasures among the entire Human Race, not exceeding the number of fingers on two hands.

Among them, the most famous one is the Hetu Luoshu possessed by the Emperor Fuxi.

From this, one can understand how precious the Sun God Staff, which has a chance of becoming a superior Innate Spiritual Treasure, really is.

Looking at the Sun God Staff from different angles, the more Jiang Xuan looked at it, the more he liked it.

He couldn’t help it but say to Jiang Chen, “This Sun God Staff has gained too much power.

I’m afraid you can’t control it and will be lost in this false power.

“How about letting me keep it for you for a while?

I’ll return it to you when your cultivation is up.”

Having heard the joke from Jiang Xuan, Jiang Chen laughed and replied, “Sure, if ancestor likes it, you can take that.”

“You little smart one!” Jiang Xuan slapped Jiang Chen on the forehead, handed back the Sun God Staff and said, “If it were in my youthful days, I would’ve really taken you up on that offer.”

“But now, I’m too old.

I need to maintain my dignity, and I wouldn’t fight with juniors for Magic Treasures.

Otherwise, you wouldn’t have a place to cry.”

Taking back the Sun God Staff, Jiang Chen said with a sly look, “Elder, you’re kidding.

I meant everything I said and it was all honest…”

While his words were beautiful, the way Jiang Chen quickly put away the Sun God Staff undermined the persuasiveness of his words.

“You cheeky boy!” Seeing Jiang Chen’s action, Jiang Xuan cursed with laughter.

Then he put on a serious face and gave a serious instruction.

“I won’t waste time with you anymore.

There’s something I need to tell you.”

“You need to put away the Sun God Staff carefully.

Don’t try to transform it into an Innate Spiritual Treasure before its foundation reaches its limit.”

“This matter concerns your future achievement.

Whether you can achieve greatness in Ancient Martial Arts, all depends on the transformation of the Sun God Staff.

You must not belittle it.”

Hearing Jiang Xuan’s serious words, Jiang Chen also took it seriously and responded solemnly, “I will bear in mind what the elder said.”

“Just one thing, I can’t figure out how the transformation of the Sun God Staff relates to Ancient Martial Arts?”

Looking at Jiang Chen, Jiang Xuan said word by word, “Because after the Sun God Staff is promoted to an Innate Spiritual Treasure, it will feed you back with its original source.”

As it turns out, all acquired items transform into innate ones, would give their original source back to their owners.

And the higher the grade of transformation, the more powerful the original source is.

If the Sun God Staff could really transform into a superior Innate Spiritual Treasure, the innate original source it could give back would be unimaginably enormous.

While saying that it could enable any one to become a Daluo Dao Venerable might be an exaggeration, it could certainly push a peak Taiyi Golden Immortal to the threshold of becoming a Daluo Dao Venerable.

If Jiang Chen could get this power, even if his practice of Ancient Martial Arts was too difficult to certify Tao, he would have an eighty percent certainty of certifying the Tao and achieving the realm of Daluo Dao Venerable with the aid of this power.

In this way, he could break the curse that Ancient Martial Arts cannot be immortal, and become immortal henceforth.

The certification of Tao in Ancient Martial Arts is very difficult, but it is undoubtedly harder for an acquired supreme treasure to transform into a superior Innate Spiritual Treasure.

There are examples of the former in the Three Realms, but for the latter, there has not been a single instance since the beginning of the universe.

Just as in the current situation of the Sun God Staff, it only has the potential to become a superior Innate Spiritual Treasure.

As for whether it can really succeed, it depends on Jiang Chen’s efforts thereafter.

If the Sun God Staff became the first superior Innate Spiritual Treasure in the Three Realms, there would surely be endless benefits for Jiang Chen if he succeeded.

The certification of Daluo Dao Venerable would be within his reach.

What difference does it make with a success rate of eighty percent or a hundred percent?

Breaking through is a risky thing.

A chance of even one percent is worth a try, let alone eighty percent?

…

After hearing the explanation from Jiang Xuan, Jiang Chen kind of understood why the Jiang Family was plotting against the Buddhist door-it was probably to pave the way for him.

Thanks to the Sunlight Bodhisattva and the Buddha, the Sun God Staff now has the foundation to be promoted to a high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure and is not far from being promoted to a superior Innate Spiritual Treasure.

The remaining resources, the Jiang Family gritted their teeth and could almost gather.

Even without the Jiang Family’s help, Jiang Chen could gather enough resources for the Sun God Staff’s promotion from all over the places.

After the Sun God Staff is transformed into a superior Innate Spiritual Treasure, who will benefit from it?

It’s none other than Jiang Chen.

Not only could he have a superior Innate Spiritual Treasure, but he could also clear his future path, with the Great Dao in sight.

This kind of blessing is truly against the heavens.

Having figured out the plot of the Jiang Family, Jiang Chen felt somewhat mixed for a moment.

What merit and ability did he have to deserve such great lengths from the Jiang Family?

Seemingly understanding Jiang Chen’s thoughts, Jiang Xuan comforted, “Don’t think too much.

If the family can do so much for you, it means you’re worthy of the family’s efforts.”

“Not everyone is worthy of such investment from the family.”

“Of course, if you really feel guilty, then just work hard in your cultivation.”

“Strive to become the supreme powerhouse who can awe the Three Realms as soon as possible, to prove to the world that the family’s investment wasn’t in vain.”

Jiang Xuan’s comfort seemed to work.

Jiang Chen quickly cheered up and said, “What the elder said is right.

Jiang Chen will work hard in cultivation in the future to achieve as soon as possible.”

This time, his motivation to strive became stronger.

With the expectation of the Jiang Family on his back, even if it wasn’t for himself, just to repay the Jiang Family, he had to achieve brilliant results.

At least he needed to be comparable to the Emperor, or King Yu.

Only in this way could he live up to the expectations of the Jiang Family.

“Hmm, good to know that you understand.”

Seeing Jiang Chen coming out of his confusion and regaining spirit, Jiang Xuan nodded with satisfaction.

Then he asked, “Are you going to go back to Jiang Family with me, or would you like to continue your journey here?”
