Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me
Chapter 534: Four Five Nine Sacred Man Calculation_2

He had no idea what was inside the box, but he could guess that whatever it was, it was something Empress Nuwa was using to plot against the two saints in the West.

She mentioned the Quantitative Calamity of Investiture of the Gods, clearly hinting at some people; those she most likely meant were the two western saints. And by some people, she most likely meant the Jade Emperor and those involved in the incidents of the West Journey.

He didn’t know what the power struggle among the top players in the Prehistoric World was like before, but now he had finally experienced it firsthand.

From the moment he took the jade box from Empress Nuwa, he was forced to get involved in the power struggle among the Saints.

Seeing Jiang Chen’s reaction, Empress Nuwa said with a smile, "What’s the matter? Are you afraid?"

Even if he was really scared at this point, he couldn’t admit it. So Jiang Chen shook his head and declared his loyalty, "Scared? I’m not afraid even of death when working for the Empress. Much more just delivering a jade box."

"I’m merely curious about what’s in the box. Moreover, the Empress said I should give this jade box to Monkey King at the appropriate time. But when would be the right time? I’m afraid I might misunderstand and ruin the Empress’ great plan."

"Hehe." Empress Nuwa laughed at what Jiang Chen said, and after some time, she responded, "Jiang Chen, I haven’t seen someone as interesting as you for a long time."

Then, she answered Jiang Chen’s two questions, "What treasure is in this box, I can’t tell you. Once said, it’s easy to be detected by certain people, which could cause unpredictable variables."

"And as for what the appropriate time is? You will know when the time comes."

What’s the difference between this answer and no answer at all? Her instructions are really ambiguous.

Although he felt puzzled, Jiang Chen didn’t show any of it on his face. He just put away the jade box and said, "I understand, I won’t let the Empress down and will make sure this gets into Monkey King’s hands."

"Good." Empress Nuwa nodded, apparently very satisfied with Jiang Chen’s attitude. Then she handed another jade box to him.

"Jiang Chen, as you are working for the Empress, she won’t let you down either. This jade box contains a drop of Blood of All Demons personally refined by Di Jun. The Empress said you’ll come to need it in the future, so she`s granting you this item."

Blood of All Demons, this treasure was something Jiang Chen had seen in the heritage of Xi Emperor, is a treasure of the Demon Clan.

It’s made of blood essence collected from all demons by Di Jun, assisted by countless innate spiritual beings, forged by the Star Array for ten thousand years. It’s extremely precious.

The value of this item even surpasses that of the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill of the Saint of Taiqing.

Upon refining it, ordinary people could immediately transform into top-rated geniuses, their talent even comparable to the Innate Divine Demon. If one at the half-step Dao level refines it, the chances of breaking through to become an Innate Dao Sovereign can significantly increase.

Even in the Great Ancient time with numerous treasures, the Blood of All Demons was still an item that people would fight tooth and nail for.

However, the Blood of All Demons was basically useless to Jiang Chen. His talent was already at the peak among the Innate Divine Demons, so he didn’t need the Blood of All Demons to enhance it.

For him to break through and become an Innate Dao Sovereign, while the energy contained in the Blood of All Demons was not small, it was far from enough for his breakthrough.

However, someone like Empress Nuwa would never act without reason. If she said that Jiang Chen would need this treasure in the future, she must have foreseen something.

With these thoughts, Jiang Chen accepted the Blood of All Demons and thanked her, "Thank you for the generous gift, Empress."

With that, Empress Nuwa’s instructions were fully given. Subsequently, she asked about the situation of the Jiang family and gave him some treasures unique to the Splendid Heaven before letting him leave.

After leaving Splendid Heaven, Jiang Chen still felt that the whole affair was confusing. But in the end, he was merely a tool, an errand boy delivering treasures to Monkey King. He didn’t need to do anything else.

However, this was a good thing too. The less he was involved in the power struggle among saints, the safer he was.

...

........

After leaving Splendid Heaven, Jiang Chen spent some time in the Chaos outside heaven, obtaining some unique products of the Chaos realm. He then returned to the Three Realms and resumed his life in the middle of Mount Cang.

However, as soon as he returned to Mount Cang, an astonishing piece of news reached him through Chaos.

"What?"

"The Supreme God is dead?"

"How could the Supreme God die all of a sudden? Do you know who did it?"

Inside the Chaos Hall, Jiang Chen looked at Chaos with disbelief, as if he couldn’t believe his words.

It was just too unbelievable. During the time he was away from the Three Realms, the Supreme God, an Innate Dao Sovereign who had lived since the Great Ancient, suddenly fell, and nobody knew who killed him.

Chaos shook his head and said, "Indeed, the Supreme God is dead. This has been confirmed by the Divine Race. The fate of the Divine Race has been shattered significantly, and their bloodline reveals a sense of desolation."

"These phenomena are the symbols of an ancestral figure’s fall, so the Supreme God is indeed dead, as to who killed him? I don’t know."

Chaos had only heard this news from others, so the information was not comprehensive. He only knew that the Supreme God was dead, but didn’t know who had done it or how he was killed.
