Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me
Chapter 244 - 244 234 Background Reaches the Sky

244: Chapter 234: Background Reaches the Sky 244: Chapter 234: Background Reaches the Sky Huaguo Mountain in the Eastern Sea is not far from the Dongsheng Divine Continent, making it part of the Dongsheng Divine Territory.

Therefore, in just a few days, Jiang Chen and the others had arrived at the Dongsheng Divine Continent.

As soon as Jiang Chen stepped foot on the land, he recognized the extraordinary atmosphere of the Dongsheng Divine Continent.

The elemental aura permeating Heaven and Earth was over ten times richer than that of Xiniuhe Continent.

The rules of Heaven and Earth were stricter and the space more stable.

The robust heavenly Earth’s aura and the elemental forces of the five elements struck him head-on.

There was no hint of impurities in the spiritual energy.

Without having to practice, the spiritual energy just naturally diffused into Jiang Chen’s body with every breath he took — a truly superb place for cultivation.

After taking in only a few breaths of this land’s air, Jiang Chen felt his inner energy becoming much more active.

“So this is Dongsheng Divine Continent?

Truly extraordinary!” All those present were visiting Dongsheng Divine Continent for the first time and were astounded by the environment.

After hovering in the air briefly to allow everyone time to adapt to the local environment, Jiang Chen descended to the ground.

On reaching the ground, Jiang Chen discovered that the area was a continuation of ranges of mountains.

There were towering ancient trees on the mountains, countless cliffs and precipices, and countless waterfalls gushing down.

Between the mountains streams were a common sight, along with rare fruits and various types of spiritual beasts and birds.

The sights and sounds were a feast for the senses.

The mountains were exceptionally tall, most of them similar in stature to the Five Sacred Mountains of Nanbuzhan Continent.

Within a hundred miles, there were countless mountains that stretched a thousand feet into the sky.

Especially noteworthy were the towering peaks soaring into the sky some tens of millions of miles away.

They seemed to pierce through Heaven and Earth, resembling the pillar that propped up the sky in ancient times.

This sight transported Jiang Chen back to the primeval forests of the ancient chaos.

There were countless caves and stone platforms in the connecting parts of the mountains.

Some caves were bordered with gnarled pine trees, scattered bamboo, blooming orchids, and green grass.

It was truly a natural place of blessing for immortals.

There were more places full of spiritual energy here than Jiang Chen had seen in the Nanbuzhan Continent and even richer than them.

“In these places, any place with a restriction can become a Cave Heaven suitable for cultivation.

This is truly a land of blessing.”

“Compared with Nanbuzhan Continent, it is thousands of times better.

No wonder those sages who have achieved immortal status would rather stay in Dongsheng Divine Continent than ascend to the heavenly realm.”

“So this is the realm of the Earth Immortals.

The name is indeed fitting.

Dongsheng Divine Continent is indeed a celestial world on Earth.”

Jiang Chen, who came from Nanbuzhan Continent was thoroughly shocked by the sight of Dongsheng Divine Continent.

But he had to admit that Nanbuzhan Continent couldn’t compare with Dongsheng Divine Continent.

Jiang Chen vaguely remembered a rumor that within Dongsheng Divine Continent, there were also Five Sacred Mountains that are very famous.

These were the real ancient holy mountains, ranked among the three hundred and sixty-five sacred mountains of the ancient chaos.

The Five Sacred Mountains of Dongsheng Divine Continent were countless times larger than those in Nanbuzhan Continent, standing majestically between Heaven and Earth, emanating an unparalleled sense of grandeur.

While the deities of the Celestial Court resided on the Five Sacred Mountains of Nanbuzhan Continent, the inhabitants of Dongsheng Divine Continent’s Five Sacred Mountains were the Innate Great Gods, true Great Divine Transcendents and peerless experts of the Mystic Sect.

Even the Jade Emperor would have to show these mountains respect; the Sanqing would have to address them as Taoist friends when they meet.

The Human Race’s foundation was concentrated in Nanbuzhan continent, but the foundation of the prehistoric world was essentially in Dongsheng Divine Continent.

This is the true lineage of the prehistoric world, its waters run deep.

Even the Great Luo Golden Immortals had to restrain themselves here.

Therefore, after arriving here, Jiang Chen planned to change his usual style.

He wanted to make himself more prominent!

Yes, even the Great Luo Golden Immortals dared not act arrogantly in Dongsheng Divine Continent, but Jiang Chen dared!

How did he dare?

Because his backing was strong enough!

Firstly, he was a descendant of the Flame Emperor.

Secondly, he’d come here under the banner of the Celestial Court, the Jade Emperor, and Emperor Gouchen.

Therefore, behind Jiang Chen stood three top Great Divine Transcendents of prehistoric times.

Apart from that, Jiang Chen was also the direct disciple of the Upper Qing Saints (although he’s not at the moment, he will be someday), so let’s just say he was already.

Alright, that makes another saint.

Three top Great Divine Transcendents, plus one saint.

His backing was now sufficiently strong.

But that was not all; this was only Jiang Chen’s backing, not his team’s backing.

Next to Jiang Chen, there was Sun Wukong, whose backing wasn’t something as simple as a saint, but the entire Buddhist door.

Combine both people’s backing, and it was no less than reaching the heavens.

If they weren’t a bit arrogant, how could they justify their status.

…

……

As a newcomer, Jiang Chen was unfamiliar with the situation in Dongsheng Divine Continent.

He had no idea where there were demons and which of them should be killed, he was completely in the dark.

However, this was not a problem.

Even though Jiang Chen didn’t know, but he could ask others.

The local Earth Spirit would definitely know.

The Celestial Court had big influences and was considered the orthodox in the prehistoric world.

Its spy network covered every corner of the Three Realms.

There were water gods in rivers, mountain gods in mountains, Earth Spirits in the earth, Kitchen gods during meal times, even Toilet Gods when going to the toilet…

There were gods that one might not think of, but none that the Celestial Court didn’t have.

Dongsheng Divine Continent was part of the Three Realms, so naturally, it wouldn’t be an exception.

Here, there would surely be no lack of Earth Spirits.

With this thought in mind, Jiang Chen made a sign and pointed at the ground, calling forth the local Earth Spirit.

Just as a divine light flashed on the ground, an old man of small stature appeared in front of Jiang Chen and the others — it was the local Earth Spirit.

“The lesser god greets your highness.” As soon as the Earth Spirit appeared, he gave his salutation to Jiang Chen.

When blessing a divine spirit, the first thing to do was to reveal one’s identity.

Seeing that it was a person from the celestial realm who summoned him, the Earth Spirit naturally came out without hesitation.

Jiang Chen immediately went forward and helped the man up, saying, “Sir, there’s no need for excess formalities.

I have summoned you because I have something I wish to ask about.”

Jiang Chen refused to accept the Earth Spirit’s salute out of respect.

Unlike other deities, water gods might have originated from a demon in the waters and mountain gods might be disguised demons from the mountains, but Earth Spirits were different.

Those who could become Earth Spirits were all great benefactors prominent in the vicinity during their lifetime, which is why they could become gods after their death and guard a place.

It’s for this reason that even though the Earth Spirit’s power might not be as strong, Jiang Chen still held great respect for them.

This was not out of respect for their divine position, but respect for their character.

Those that follow the path of humanity and show kindness to their fellow men will always gain respect wherever they go.

Being treated with such respect by Jiang Chen, the Earth Spirit looked surprised and quickly said, “If there’s anything the heavenly king wishes to know, as long as I know it, I will speak without reservation!”

Upon closer inspection, Jiang Chen realized that the cultivation level of this Earth Spirit was only that of an Earth Immortal.

So, he did not mention his wish to learn about the demons in the area.

He had been careless, and this was not something he should be asking the Earth Spirit about.

Did the Earth Spirit know?

Certainly.

Ps: I need monthly votes.

There’s no hope of getting this month’s bounty.

But to avoid bankruptcy, I need 2000 monthly votes, I’m short of 300 votes, now it’s doubled, so I’m short of 150 votes, I need your help.

There are only 11 hours left.
