Journey to the West: Tang Monk Conquers Everything

Epic Level, although not as high as Divine Level, was still considered to be of very high quality—it was even superior to Legendary Level.

With anticipation in his heart, Jiang Liu slowly opened the treasure chest. Enjoy exclusive chapters from My Virtual Library Empire

"Eh, what is this thing!?" However, when Jiang Liu opened the chest, he looked at the content, twitched his face, and felt it was a bit odd.

Inside the chest was a stone.

The stone looked like one that could have been casually picked up on the road, except it was engraved with a few Mysterious Runes that were completely unintelligible.

The drab stone, lacking even the slightest aesthetic, was all that the Epic Level chest contained? Just an ugly stone?

As Jiang Liu's gaze fell upon the stone, naturally, the attribute information also appeared before him.

Random Teleportation Stone (Consumable): After use, it can teleport the target randomly to any corner of the current world, with a cooldown time of 1 day and 10/10 remaining uses.

"Ah? A Random Teleportation Stone? And it can be used 10 times? If used well, this thing could be a great treasure for escaping, right!?" Beaming with joy after reading the stone's attribute information, Jiang Liu felt secretly delighted.

Moreover, from the description of the Random Teleportation Stone, it was not only useable on oneself but also on others.

Imagine, if faced with an unbeatable opponent, using a Random Teleportation Stone to just send them away? Wouldn't that be delightful!?

Okay, it doesn't matter if it's ugly, as long as it's useful.

The ability to use random teleportation 10 times was still highly valuable, so to say it was worth of the Epic Level might not be too far-fetched?

"Master, what is this stone?"

Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie, who were beside Jiang Liu, were not new to seeing him open treasure chests, so they didn't comment much. However, they were curious to see Jiang Liu take out such an unimpressive stone and, after a look, contentedly put it away and asked.

"Hmm, it's a quite unique stone! It might be used to escape in a crucial moment!" Jiang Liu explained with a slight smile upon hearing the question.

Well, given Sun Wukong's personality, he immediately lost interest upon hearing it was something used for escaping.

Flying continued at full speed, and the group quickly streaked across the sky of the Demon Realm.

Jiang Liu felt that this trip to the Demon Realm was his chance to earn a huge amount of Experience Points. Plus, if the Divine Level Potions were used properly, this round could yield unprecedented rewards!

So, did Jiang Liu need to devise a long-term strategy or think carefully about how to approach Blood Knife Cave?

No need! Battle was all that was needed!

If he could catch them off guard this round, he'd surely earn a massive amount of Experience Points. What else was there to consider?

"Hehehe, Master, I like the sound of that! That's how it should be, just be bold!" Hearing Jiang Liu's words, Sun Wukong at his side couldn't help but grin and seemed eager to try.

The Demon Clan of the Great Luo Realm? Sun Wukong felt an itch in his palms and was even more fond of his Master's boldness.

"Hmm, Master, you're truly brave and strategic!" Even Zhu Bajie next to him nodded in admiration upon hearing this and was very impressed by Jiang Liu.

Was Master's cunning strong? Zhu Bajie had never doubted it.

He had always thought of Master as someone who preferred strategizing, but when it really came to acting, Master's courage was equally astonishing, not just his strategy!

"Alright, Master, I understand!" As Jiang Liu spoke, the White Dragon Horse seemed to be inspired by his words too, nodding in agreement.

In the midst of their conversation, the pace of their galloping hooves quickened, and several streaks of light in the sky became even faster.

"By the way, I'll give you two Dharma Treasures!" However, just at that moment, Jiang Liu suddenly turned his head, a thought crossed his mind, and he looked at the Little Witch and spoke.

Although the Little Witch was high-level, reaching level 50, her strongest ability was nothing more than the Samadhi Demonic Fire, and she didn't possess any high-quality equipment, something Jiang Liu knew just by glancing at her character screen.

So, as he spoke, Jiang Liu raised his hand, and the Zen Wooden Staff appeared in his grasp, which he then handed to the Little Witch.

After obtaining the Xuanhua Axe, the Zen Wooden Staff was naturally outclassed, but still, with an added 3000 Attack Power, it was somewhat useful.

"Ah? A Dharma Treasure for me!?" The Little Witch was stunned as she looked at the Zen Wooden Staff Jiang Liu handed to her.

However, after a moment of contemplation, Jiang Liu did not refuse, instead, he reached out and took the Zen Wooden Staff in his hand.

"And here, take these too..." Some equipment that had just been phased out, such as the Golden Cicada Buddha Robe, and some of relatively lower quality, like high-level but only Perfect Level equipment, or even those less powerful than the Legendary Level Equipment he was already wearing.

Regardless of how much the attributes added up, having them was better than nothing, right? Jiang Liu took them all out in one go and handed them to the Little Witch.

Being able to form a team meant that for every bit of strength the Little Witch gained, Jiang Liu would earn more Experience Points, so naturally, he did everything possible to arm her to the teeth.

Following Jiang Liu handing over his equipment to her, within a short while, the Little Witch had undergone quite a transformation.

Dressed in equipment with a tattered Golden Cicada Buddha Robe and holding a Zen Wooden Staff, she looked like a female nun.

"Hmm, it looks somewhat strange, but as long as the strength has increased, that's what matters!" After looking at the Little Witch, who now resembled a nun, Jiang Liu's mouth twitched slightly, but a satisfied nod came from his face.

"Yeah, not bad, these Dharma Treasures have indeed enhanced my strength!" The Little Witch nodded her head, too, after putting on the equipment.

She could clearly feel that her strength had indeed improved with these pieces of equipment.@@novelbin@@

As for whether she looked good in this full set of gear?

Please, there's no such concept in the Demon Realm. For the Demon Realm, only utilitarian strength matters. Looking good? Completely worthless!

They flew all the way, making no attempt to hide their forms, so naturally, many from the Demon Clan took notice of them along the way.

However, with the intention of making a quick work at the Blood Knife Cave and valuing rapid action, Jiang Liu did not stop to confront these demons on the road.

The other members of the Demon Clan? If there's time left after sorting out the Blood Knife Cave situation, Jiang Liu wouldn't mind causing a ruckus in the Demon Realm.

...

Not stopping for the demons they encountered on the road, Jiang Liu and Sun Wukong quickly covered the distance of eighty thousand li and arrived within the territory of the Blood Knife Cave.

As expected of the place where a Demon Lord of the Great Luo Realm resides, the Blood Knife Cave was situated atop a Black Mountain that was tens of thousands of meters high. Sun Wukong could see that the mountain was teeming with countless members of the Demon Clan, at the very least, tens of thousands.

"Master, should we just storm in?" Sun Wukong asked, eyeing the scape of the Blood Knife Cave with an impatient demeanor.

"No, although we have nothing to fear, our purpose here isn't just to fight," replied Jiang Liu, shaking his head at Sun Wukong's question. "Our goal is to find your Junior Brother Sha. If a big fight were to make him leave or even get moved by Yu Hua, wouldn't our efforts have been in vain?"

At that point, Jiang Liu paused slightly and added, "So it's best not to startle the enemy. Let's try to see if we can meet your Junior Brother Sha first!"

Indeed, although Jiang Liu was also eager to fight and gain a massive amount of Experience Points, priorities had to be clear.

If he were indeed able to overpower the Blood Knife Cave only to have Sha Wujing moved elsewhere, wouldn't it be a wasted effort?

With tens of thousands of demons right here, and none going anywhere, it was better to try to meet Sha Wujing and get him back into the team first, right?

Once the mission was accomplished, it wouldn't be too late to fight!

"Oh, I see. So what do we do, Master?" Sun Wukong, who was initially ready for a tough fight and quite stirred up, now asked with a hint of disappointment, having heard they couldn't make a move yet.

"Monkey Brother, the Master has courage and strategy; that's the true path to victory!" Zhu Bajie, ever the number one supporter of Jiang Liu, couldn't help but speak up at that moment, and shouted out a round of applause for Jiang Liu.

"Well, Wukong, to convince Wujing to come back, I must meet him myself. So, this time it's not just you infiltrating the Blood Knife Cave alone; I need to go in as well. Can you manage that?" After a brief pause, Jiang Liu asked Sun Wukong.

"Don't worry, Master! With my seventy-two transformations, I can disguise you as one of the Demon Clan too. It shouldn't be a problem to blend in," Sun Wukong said, patting his chest confidently in response to Jiang Liu's inquiry.

"Good! Then the rest of you wait here. Wukong and I will go scout it out first," Jiang Liu said, satisfied with Sun Wukong's response. He then turned to Zhu Bajie and the others and instructed them to wait.

The Little Witch, Zhu Bajie, and White Dragon Horse halted on the outskirts of the Blood Knife Cave's mountain and hid, resting and waiting.

As for Sun Wukong? He uttered an incantation and blew a breath towards Jiang Liu, who in the blink of an eye, was transformed into a demon with a stark red body and a single horn on his forehead.

And Sun Wukong? He turned into a mosquito and landed on Jiang Liu's shoulder.

Immediately after, Jiang Liu headed straight for the midst of the Blood Knife Cave's mountain.
