Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me
Chapter 323 - 323 Three One Two A Hundred Years of Time

323: Three One Two A Hundred Years of Time 323: Three One Two A Hundred Years of Time The star fragments that littered the ground were the signature of a witch and monster battlefield.

After all, aside from the witch and monster war, no other battle could shatter every star in the Cycle.

“No wonder this place is filled with so much destructive aura.

It turns out there’s a witch and monster battlefield here.”

Now everything made sense.

A witch and monster battlefield was a devastating place where heaven and earth shattered, stars fell, Innate Dao Sovereigns perished, and Great Divine Transcendents days were in blood.

Such a place, known as the Land of the Apocalypse, was filled with evil energy and lingering resentment, making it a natural nest for Fierce Beasts.

The birth of a few Fierce Beasts was only a normal occurrence.

He tried to approach the witch and monster battlefield, only to be stopped by an invisible barrier in the void, preventing him from getting close to the area.

“Are we not in the same void?”

After a moment of contemplation, Jiang Chen understood.

Although the witch and monster battlefield seemed close to him, separated only by a Sea of Destruction, in reality, they were not on the same void plane but separated by endless void.

If Jiang Chen wanted to enter that battlefield, he would probably have to refine the entire Little Cang Mountain Range.

Only in this way could Jiang Chen open the passage to the witch and monster battlefield.

“Alas, it’s time to leave.”

Seeing that he could not enter the witch and monster battlefield, Jiang Chen once again considered leaving.

Earlier, through his Tao perspective, Jiang Chen saw the numerous Fierce Beast embryos.

Even though there were many of them, a handful still had hundreds of years left till their birth.

A hundred years was ample time, so Jiang Chen was in no hurry.

He could take his time to conquer the Little Cang Mountain Range.

As long as he could claim the Little Cang Mountain Range and open the void passage to this witch and monster battlefield before these Fierce Beasts are born.

Then these Fierce Beast embryos would pose no threat to Jiang Chen, and he could easily exterminate them.

In a hundred years’ time, wouldn’t he be able to conquer the Little Cang Mountain Range?

What a joke, if Jiang Chen couldn’t claim the Little Cang Mountain Range in ten years.

Then he…

Then he would…

Go and ask for help from the Jiang Family, inviting the unparalleled experts of the Jiang Family to help level the Little Cang Mountain Range.

After all, Jiang Chen was not alone.

Behind him, the Jiang Family stood as the top force in the Three Realms.

Any of their experts could casually level the Little Cang Mountain Range.

If he could not conquer the Little Cang Mountain Range with his own power, Jiang Chen wouldn’t mind asking for help.

This was not shameful.

Wasn’t the point of having a background to help out when one faced unsolvable problems?

Jiang Chen was not a stickler for convention.

If he had resources, of course, he would use them.

They couldn’t just be used as decoration.

…

…

However, although taking down the Little Cang Mountain Range was not urgent, dealing with the present red-hot Poison Pythons was a pressing matter.

Unlike those Fierce Beast embryos, these Pythons had already been born and grown significantly.

If he doesn’t intervene now, it would be hard to deal with them once they become a force.

With these thoughts in mind, Jiang Chen quietly retreated.

But as he passed the two Ancestor Pythons again, he secretly set some traps, insidiously planting hundreds of Heavenly Thunder children for detonation after his departure, to blow the two Ancestor Pythons away.

This place was isolated from the outside world.

These two Ancestor Pythons staying here was evidently unaware of the outside world’s situation—the implication being that no matter what happened in the outside world, these two Ancestor Pythons would not leave.

This was unacceptable.

If they stayed here and refused to go out, wouldn’t Jiang Chen’s trap be set up in vain?

Therefore, Jiang Chen covertly planted Heavenly Thunder children near them.

This Heavenly Thunder child was a treasure refined by the Heavenly Thunder Institute.

Each had a Heavenly Thunder sealed inside, the power equivalent to a strike from a Golden Immortal.

Hundreds of Heavenly Thunder children, although they could not kill these two Ancestor Pythons, could nevertheless injure them and make them feel pain.

When a Fierce Beast gets wounded, the belligerence in its bloodline would be stirred up, and they would recklessly storm out.

Jiang Chen’s trap was waiting for them outside.

Heading upward, Jiang Chen quickly left the crevice and returned to the bottom of the volcano.

After a little while more, he saw Sun Wukong.

At this time, Sun Wukong had put away his golden cudgel and was pressing his hands together, forming one seal after another and bombarding the Poison Python in front of him, turning it into a mess of flesh and blood.

In the short time that Jiang Chen had left, the ground was already covered with a layer of flesh and blood, showing that quite a few Poison Pythons had suffered at Sun Wukong’s hands during this time.

Yet watching Sun Wukong’s powerful display, Jiang Chen was filled with surprise.

Why would the monkey put his golden cudgel away?

The combination of the Mend Heaven Seal and the golden cudgel amplified the power several times over, making it extremely easy to deal with these Poison Pythons.

They should have all been killed by now.

Curious, Jiang Chen directly asked: “Monkey, where is your golden cudgel?”

Finding an opening, Sun Wukong replied: “Brother, you’re back!

Your brother Sun felt that the cudgel was getting in the way, so I put it away.”

The golden cudgel was getting in the way?

Did I hear that right?

When Jiang Chen heard what Sun Wukong said, his first reaction was to doubt his hearing.

But seeing the serious look on Sun Wukong’s face, he knew the other party was serious.

Surprisingly, Sun Wukong had a day when he thought the golden cudgel was in the way.

The world had really changed, making it increasingly incomprehensible.

Wait a minute…

Suddenly, Jiang Chen seemed to think of a possibility and asked Sun Wukong with a strange expression: “Monkey, your Mend Heaven Seal, can it only be launched in the form of a hand seal?”

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong looked at Jiang Chen in surprise and said, “What, can the Mend Heaven Seal be launched in other ways?”

At this point, Jiang Chen was truly speechless.

Sun Wukong’s understanding of Divine Ability was too narrow.

A Divine Ability was an interpretation of Tao, a use of rules.

Should it be such an inconvenient thing?

Shouldn’t it be able to be released and controlled at will, and not stick to any form?

This is the true way to unleash a Divine Ability.

In Sun Wukong’s case, he was fixated on releasing the seal using hand gestures, which undoubtedly put him at a disadvantage.

If the Mend Heaven Seal is like this, wouldn’t those without hands be unable to practise it?

Without wasting words, Jiang Chen drew his Dragon-slaying Divine Sword with a stab.

Immediately, a bloody sword-light carrying the essence of mending heaven surged forward, directly hitting the original spirit of a Poison Python in front of him, forcibly blending it into Heaven and Earth.

To forcibly blend one’s opponent into Heaven and Earth, causing it to become one with Heaven and Earth, this is the Mend Heaven Seal.

“Did you see that, monkey?

What is called a Divine Ability should not be constrained to a form.

Whether it’s a hand seal, a sword, a stick, or a cudgel… These are merely carriers.

As long as it’s needed, anything can serve as a carrier, and any can launch Divine Ability.”

“Only by achieving this, one has truly learned a Divine Ability.”
