Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me

Chapter 709: 570 Sun Temple, Donghuang Sleeping Palace

Upon seeing Jiang Chen walking towards it, the raging Sun True Fire on the Sun Star automatically parted, creating a path for him to tread.

This scene made Jiang Hao’s eyelid twitch. He had never been treated this way before.

But it didn’t matter. Once he fused with the original source of the Great Sun, he could also enjoy such prestige.

Jiang Hao comforted himself, but it did no good. He knew that even if he assimilated the Great Sun’s original source, he would still be different from Jiang Chen.

It was merely an honour he shared with the Great Sun, who was not dead. But Jiang Chen, he alone enjoyed the honour of the nine Golden Crows. The gap was too vast.

With a gloomy face, Jiang Hao led Jiang Chen towards the Sun Temple, located deep within the Sun Star.

In the central region of the Sun Star, there was a golden palace, extremely magnificent and prestigious. It was dazzling to the point that it seemed as if all the glories of the world were bestowed upon it.

This was the Sun Temple, an Innate Divine Element nurtured by the Sun Star.

After following Jiang Hao for a while, Jiang Chen arrived at a shiny golden temple. Although it also radiated with dazzling brilliance, it did not match the grandeur he remembered.

Jiang Chen knew why that was. The Sun Temple in front of him was not the real Sun Temple.

The actual Sun Temple was a high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, nurtured by the original source of the Sun Star. It was the temple of Di Jun and Taiyi.

Unfortunately, after Di Jun Taiyi’s fall, the true Sun Temple disappeared.

Later, when the Flame Emperor became the new Sun God, Empress Nuwa noticed that there was no temple left on the Sun Star for him to reside in. Hence, she collected the Sun’s original source over ten thousand years to build him a new Sun Temple, a high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

Although high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures are extraordinary, they could hardly be compared to the real Sun Temple.

Inside the Sun Temple, many experts from the Human Race had arrived. They were all witnesses to the ceremony, watching as Jiang Hao handed over the position of the Sun Star Lord to Jiang Chen.

"Greetings to all elders."

Upon arrival at the Sun Temple, Jiang Chen greeted everyone politely, and everyone nodded back with a smile.

Jiang Chen’s fame had surpassed even that of the Jade Emperor in the Three Realms. Although the Jade Emperor was the Lord of the Three Realms, he hadn’t destroyed the Spiritual Mountain as Jiang Chen had!

Jiang Chen was a ruthless individual who had wiped out an entire Spiritual Mountain with just a few words. Anyone would be uneasy in front of such a character.

Even though most people present were his elders, nobody dared to behave pretentiously in his face.

If it was possible not to offend Jiang Chen, it was better not to. He was simply too ruthless.

Even the Spiritual Mountain, considered a Buddhist Holy Land and home to nine Quasi-Saints, was destroyed by him. It was truly terrifying.

After the greetings, Jiang Hao, who sat in the principal seat, pointed forward and said to Jiang Chen, "Come, Jiang Chen, come here."

Jiang Chen walked up to Jiang Hao as instructed and waited for his command.

Jiang Hao stood up and said to everyone, "We are all family here. Let’s not beat around the bush and get directly to the main point."

"You all know why I called you here today. I’m about to break through and won’t have the time to maintain the operation of the Sun Star. Therefore, I’ve decided to pass on the position of the Sun Star Lord to Jiang Chen. I invite you all to witness this."

"From today onwards, Jiang Chen will be the new Sun Star Lord."

After Jiang Hao finished speaking, he handed over the divine seal symbolising the Star Lord of the Sun Star to Jiang Chen.

The moment the divine seal was in his hands, Jiang Chen still looked bewildered. He hadn’t expected the whole inheritance ceremony to be this simple.

With just a few words, Jiang Hao had passed the position of the Star Lord on to him. There wasn’t any ceremony, nor any extraordinary event, which made Jiang Chen feel like it was all a dream.

However, the excitement that the Sun Divine Seal in his hand had transmitted pulled Jiang Chen back to reality.

This Sun Divine Seal was real, and the throb in his blood was unmistakable. As long as he accepted the divine seal, he would become the new Sun God.

"What’s the matter? Why are you dazed? Don’t you want it? Hurry up and finish the acceptance. Then, I can leave in peace."

Seeing Jiang Chen lost in his thoughts, Jiang Hao said with a hint of amusement.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen snapped back to reality and hastily thanked Jiang Hao, "Thank you, Great Ancestor, for your generosity."

After saying this, Jiang Chen connected his divine consciousness with the Sun Divine Seal, branding his mark on it.

The entire process went smoothly, without any interruption.

That’s right, it was all decided beforehand. Anyone opposing at this moment was not just opposing Jiang Chen, but the entire Jiang Family.

Because of the fusion with the Golden Crow’s origin, the Sun Star accepted Jiang Chen without any resistance. So Jiang Chen managed to imprint his mark on the Sun Divine Seal with great ease.

The next instant, Jiang Chen felt a change. His divine consciousness began to expand infinitely, soon reaching the zenith of the starry sky, overlooking the entire Sun Star.

It was then that Jiang Chen got a glimpse of the full picture of the Sun Star. It was vast, larger than his imagination could fathom, much bigger than the entire Three Realms.

Just a single glance filled his mind entirely with the colossal Sun Star, leaving no room for anything else.

All sorts of profound secrets pertaining to the Tao of the Sun began to rise spontaneously in Jiang Chen’s heart, providing him with a whole new perspective on the Tao of the Sun.

The next moment, a power beyond imagination surged into his body, pulling Jiang Chen out of his state of enlightenment.

This power was incredibly powerful, far surpassing Innate Dao Sovereign, and was comparable to a Quasi-Saint.
