Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me
Chapter 309 - 309 298 A Thought Forms Array

309: 298 A Thought Forms Array 309: 298 A Thought Forms Array However, the target the Saintess Wudang was aiming for was not one of the four figures but an empty space in front of her.

In the eyes of Saintess Wudang, Guang Chengzi was hiding there.

The so-called four avatars were just tricks of diversion.

No matter which avatar the Saintess Wudang caught up with, even if all four avatars were caught up with, she could never really capture Guang Chengzi.

Because all along, he had been hiding in the shadows, waiting for the Saintess Wudang to make her move, so he could seize the opportunity to return to Kunlun Mountains.

On the topic of survival techniques, Guang Chengzi was a pro.

Unfortunately, in the end, his supposedly perfect plan was seen through by Saintess Wudang.

Swoosh…

The invisible killing sword, filled with raging killing intent, tore through the void effortlessly, turning the space where Guang Chengzi was hiding into fragments in a blink of an eye.

Jiejiao Sect got its significance from its Chan Teaching’s Four Swords.

Leader Tongtian reached enlightenment using the Qingping sword, which proves that he was indeed a master of swordsmanship.

Most of the Jiejiao Sect disciples were influenced by him and were proficient in swordplay.

As a direct disciple of Leader Tongtian, Saintess Wudang’s swordsmanship was extremely formidable.

With one swift move, she shattered the space, revealing Guang Chengzi hiding inside.

Fast!

Too fast!

The attack from Saintess Wudang was so swift that Guang Chengzi just couldn’t dodge.

Realizing this, Guang Chengzi, without any hesitation, called upon the Heaven Overturning Seal, which turned into a huge shield and placed it in front of him.

Bang!

As expected of the most powerful Innate Treasure, the Heaven Overturning Seal!

Although Saintess Wudang’s attack was ruthless, it couldn’t leave a scratch on the Seal.

However, she herself was struck back by the force of the impact coming off the sword.

But, Guang Chengzi wasn’t left unscathed either.

Despite the Heaven Overturning Seal blocking the sword, the immense amount of force it was carrying had transferred through to him.

The force made his blood surge and his body tremble.

Seeing her attack didn’t work as expected, Saintess Wudang quickly withdrew her sword and then struck again, getting closer to Guang Chengzi.

Seeing this, Guang Chengzi desperately called up the Heaven Overturning Seal to defend, and yelled back at Saintess Wudang, “Why are you pressuring me, sister?

Do you intend on killing me?”

Upon hearing this, the killing intent in Saintess Wudang increased even more.

“Who are you calling sister?

You wicked man, during the Investiture of Gods, you first injured my sister, later killed my nephew, and then slaughtered my younger brother.”

“They died so brutally, so innocently, I will make sure to avenge them today.”

While speaking, Saintess Wudang swiftly withdrew her sword, and while chanting, she placed her hands; one on her chest and the other on her back.

“Not good!”

Seeing this, Guang Chengzi was horrified.

He wanted to leave the place immediately at any cost.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

The Heaven and Earth began to change abruptly.

The surrounding scenery disappeared, the void shook, Heaven and Earth roared, Guang Chengzi saw only a blur, and then everything went dizzy.

When he regained consciousness and opened his eyes again, he found himself in an empty space.

It looked as if he had unknowingly been put into it.

This was a trap, Guang Chengzi was enveloped by a trap laid down by Saintess Wudang and had been trapped within it.

Inspecting his surroundings but not seeing Saintess Wudang, Guang Chengzi asked loudly, “When did you set this trap, and how come I had no inkling about it beforehand?”

From the void came the triumphant laughter of Saintess Wudang.

“Ha-ha, Guang Chengzi, do you know how I have spent these years?

I have never forgotten the enmity of my fellow disciples and those of my master and his fellows, who fell to your deceit.”

“This hatred was the one persuading me to practice hard, so I could achieve what I have today.

This trapping technique, I prepared it especially for you people of the Chan Teaching, to take revenge for the hatred of the past.”

As she spoke, the trap began operating, one after another, force of the void began to emerge from nothingness, hundreds of them, thousands, tens of thousands…all moving towards Guang Chengzi.

Seeing this, Guang Chengzi fetched a robe and slipped it on.

The robe emitted rays of light which countered the incoming forces.

The Innate Spiritual Treasure Swallow Mist Robe!

“The deaths of our disciples were predestined, it was the will of Heaven, and I was just abiding by it, where is my fault?

Sister, you are being too narrow-minded.” Guang Chengzi, while fending off the forces, said.

However, these words, to Saintess Wudang’s ears, were incredibly irritating.

As a result, she revealed herself, and in coordination with the trap, attacked Guang Chengzi with the intent to kill.

…

….

While the two were enjoying their battle here, in the other place, Yang Jian was quite curious about who these two great figures engaging in a battle, so he secretly peered at the battlefield through his Divine Eye.

Yang Jian’s Divine Eye wasn’t naturally acquired but was a precious item from Heaven Court known as the Divine Eye.

At the inception of the world, the three aspects of reality gave birth to three eyes – Heaven’s Eye, Earth’s Eye, Man’s Eye.

Among them, Heaven’s Eye was the third eye of Yang Jian.

It ranked among the Innate and High-grade, a rare and high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

Haotian, who had followed Taoist Ancestor for many years, naturally had many great things in his possession.

The Divine Eye was one of the treasures Haotian acquired from Zixiao Palace.

He first gifted it to his sister Yaoji, who later passed it to Yang Jian.

The moment Yang Jian activated his Divine Eye, the battlefield’s view was vividly reflected in his Sea of Consciousness.

Then he saw his great master, Guang Chengzi, and the Saintess Wudang of Jiejiao Sect.

Yang Jian had seen Saintess Wudang in the Ten Thousand Immortal Formation before, so he recognized her.

Simultaneously, he also knew his uncle was not an opponent for her.

The situation in the battlefield also confirmed his prediction.

Guang Chengzi was being pressed hard by Saintess Wudang.

“Not good, great master!”, exclaimed Yang Jian.

Worried about Guang Chengzi’s situation, Yang Jian drew his trident and quickly prepared to go and help.

Well, one mustn’t think that Yang Jian is overestimating himself.

Although he has the cultivation level of Taiyi Golden Immortal, due to his cultivation of Nine-turn Mysterious Method, his physical strength was on par with the ancient Great Luo Golden Immortal.

The Nine-turn Mysterious Method, which is a method of achieving sanctity through physical cultivation, is considered the strongest body refining method in Mystic Sect.

When one reaches the highest stage, the body will become holy and can compete with the Innate Treasure.

Seeing that Yang Jian was preparing to step in to help, Jiang Chen could no longer sit still and spoke to stop him, “Your Excellency, please halt!”

A fair one-on-one duel doesn’t allow third-party intervention.

Otherwise, Jiang Chen would have given the Taichu Divine Sword to Saintess Wudang long ago.

Although Heaven Overturning Seal is powerful, Taichu Divine Sword integrates fragments of Pangu Axe and the sword intent of four killing swords.

Intrinsically, it’s above the Heaven Overturning Seal.

If Saintess Wudang held this sword, she could certainly break open the Heaven Overturning Seal’s defense.

Then, with the seal’s protection gone, Guang Chengzi would be in grave danger.

PS: That’s five thousand words again.

The first day at work; it’s not easy to idle away the time, but tomorrow, it’ll probably be better.
