Journey to the West: Tang Monk Conquers Everything

For Jiang Liu, completing an epic-level task and earning a whopping 60 million Experience Points was all achieved in just a few exchanges of conversation.

This was certainly the easiest time he had ever earned Experience Points so far.

Of course, this task was related to the safety of Sun Wukong, and if possible, Jiang Liu really hoped he would never trigger such a task again in his life!

By completing this task, not only did he gain a large amount of Experience Points, but Jiang Liu also got an epic-level Treasure Chest.

Of course, the most important thing was that the completion of the task signified that Sun Wukong should have passed the danger.

"Monkey? How's it going? What's the situation on your side now?" Although he felt that Sun Wukong should have passed the danger, Jiang Liu was still somewhat uneasy and sent a message to Sun Wukong.

It didn't take long to receive a reply, and after just a few minutes, Sun Wukong sent a message back.

"Master, you were right. Indeed, the Five Elements Mountain was my own Heart Demon. Now, I, Old Sun, have successfully broken through, and moreover, Zixia is fine too. It's truly great. We're coming back now..."

Receiving this response from Sun Wukong, Jiang Liu breathed a sigh of relief and immediately opened his bag space, taking out the epic-level Treasure Chest that had just burst forth.

An epic-level Treasure Chest could reveal epic-level items, but what would it contain?

Equipment? Potion? Scroll? Item?

Without wasting words, as Jiang Liu slowly opened the epic-level Treasure Chest and looked inside, he saw that it actually contained a uniquely shaped potion.

Looking at the potion, it was divided into red and blue colors, distinct from each other, yet contained within the same bottle, which was very strange.

"What is this!?" Taking the potion out from the epic-level Treasure Chest, Jiang Liu was inwardly surprised.

Naturally, as his gaze fell upon it, the potion's attribute information also appeared before Jiang Liu.

"Twin Essence Oil (Consumable): Apply it fully to a weapon, and it can add a special effect to the weapon. You can choose to convert all of your Attack Power into Defense Power, or convert all of your Defense Power into Attack Power. Cooldown time: 3600 seconds!"

"So it's not a potion for direct consumption but for applying to a weapon for its effects? This potion can add special effects to a weapon?" Jiang Liu realized what this red and blue potion was for as he held it in his hand.

However, having understood its use, Jiang Liu shook his head. He felt that the potion was not suited for his own use.

His Equipment was frequently replaced, and even if he applied it to his Colored Glaze Staff now, in a few months, or at most half a year, he would have replaced his weapon.

Therefore, it was best to apply it to a piece of Equipment that hardly needed replacing.

With that in mind, the only choice would be one of the weapons from the three of them, including Sun Wukong.

After using it, it could convert Attack Power to Defense Power, or vice versa. Thus, it was best suited for someone with either very high Attack or Defense Power.

Alright, with this thought, Jiang Liu felt there was no need for further consideration. It could only be best utilized if applied to Sun Wukong's Golden Hoop Staff.

Sun Wukong's Vajra Indestructible Body by itself had a terrifying Defense Power. If he could momentarily convert all of that Defense Power into an increase in Attack Power during battle, how strong would Sun Wukong's Attack Power be?

The mere thought of it was very exciting.

So, the Twin Essence Oil seemed to be most valuable when given to Sun Wukong.

"Alright, who made it so this potion, which was obtained from Sun Wukong completing the task, is for him? Give it to him. Besides, his strength increasing means the whole team gets stronger!" After some thought, Jiang Liu didn't feel any reluctance. After all, if it were his own, it would only be effective for a short time.

"Master, we're back!" The speed of Sun Wukong's Somersault Cloud was naturally extremely fast. Not long after, a loud shout rang out and soon, Sun Wukong appeared from the sky, bringing Fairy Zixia with him as they descended.

After landing, Jiang Liu naturally inquired in detail about what had happened to Sun Wukong in the dream.

It turned out that the Five Elements Mountain was indeed a Nightmare that exploited Sun Wukong's own Heart Demon. Thus, to Sun Wukong, the mountain seemed as formidable as the actual Five Elements Mountain.

Having broken through his Heart Demon, Sun Wukong finally realized that the Nightmare was weaker than he had thought. He dispatched it in the dream almost effortlessly.

Of course, what made Sun Wukong happiest was that Zixia was unharmed.

That made sense. Although the Five Elements Mountain looked terrifying and seemed to crush Zixia, in reality, it was only Sun Wukong's Heart Demon. How could it possibly kill Fairy Zixia?

As a result, with the disappearance of the Five Elements Mountain, Fairy Zixia emerged unscathed. With the Nightmare slain, Zixia's crisis was naturally resolved too.

"Master, I, Old Sun have truly turned a misfortune into a blessing this time!" Sun Wukong said cheerfully, his face full of joy.

"Yes, if it weren't for this Nightmare attack, you might not even have been aware of your Heart Demon! The consequences would have been unpredictable if a real fight had ensued!" Hearing Sun Wukong's words, Jiang Liu was also happy for him.

Five Elements Mountain had become Sun Wukong's Heart Demon, and if they were to clash at Spirit Mountain in the future and Tathagata pressed down with another palm seal, who knew if Sun Wukong, under the influence of his Heart Demon, would be instantly defeated?

"No, Master, I, Old Sun, am not talking about the Heart Demon issue. I, Old Sun, am talking about breaking through my own cultivation level!" Hearing Jiang Liu's words, Sun Wukong corrected.

"Breakthrough in cultivation level? Could it be…" Sun Wukong's words stirred a shift in Jiang Liu's expression.

With a silent chant of 'character panel' in his mind, Sun Wukong's character panel soon appeared before Jiang Liu.

Indeed, Sun Wukong was originally a Level 80 Golden BOSS, but now, he had reached Level 81.

"So, Wukong, you've already broken through to the Great Luo Realm, right? Not bad, not bad, you really turned misfortune into a blessing this time!" Looking at Sun Wukong's character panel, the Level 81 rank, Jiang Liu expressed his joy even more.

"Wow, Monkey Brother, you've entered the cultivation level of a Daluo Golden Immortal? Awesome!" Zhu Bajie, on hearing this, widened his pig eyes in both envy and jealousy as he spoke to Sun Wukong.

"Big brother is awesome!" Sha Wujing also chimed in with a shout.

"Hehehe, I, Old Sun, merely overcame my Heart Demon, and as a result, broke through to become a Daluo Golden Immortal, it's not something to make a big fuss about!"

Seeing that Jiang Liu and the others all expressed their surprise and joy, Sun Wukong couldn't help but smirk, his tail wagging behind him, but he pretended to be composed, attempting to look nonchalant.

"Monkey Brother, if you're not showing off, then we're still good brothers!" Zhu Bajie's twitching eyes at Sun Wukong's demeanor made him say somewhat irritably.

A Daluo Golden Immortal, oh! In all the three realms and six paths, how many Daluo Golden Immortals are there? And which one isn't a renowned figure?

"Hehehe, using Master's words, I, Old Sun, am not showing off, I am truly awesome!" Hearing what Zhu Bajie said, Sun Wukong didn't try to act like his Master usually does. He just laughed heartily, speaking in a proud manner.

At that moment, Sun Wukong indeed felt a sense of exultation.

A few days ago, he was defeated by a Scorpion Demon and even with all three disciples joining forces, they were unable to subdue their foe, which was a significant blow to Sun Wukong.

Today, a Nightmare emerged and nearly caused his death.

For someone as proud as Sun Wukong, in such a short period, he had encountered two opponents that gave him great trouble. Who was he? He was the Great Sage Equal to Heaven!

Fortunately, today he turned misfortune into good fortune and broke through to the cultivation level of a Daluo Golden Immortal, which significantly enhanced his strength!

Even though he was previously able to compare with many Daluo Golden Immortal existence, his cultivation level was stuck at the Taiyi True Immortal stage. Just one step away, yet it felt as distant as a carp leaping over the Dragon Gate, an enormous difference!

"Right, Monkey, take out your Jingu Bang!" Sun Wukong's breakthrough made Jiang Liu happy as well. After their playful banter ended, Jiang Liu spoke.

"Okie-dokie!" Although he didn't understand why Jiang Liu said this, Sun Wukong didn't ask further and directly took out the Jingu Bang from his ear.

Jiang Liu took out the Twin Essence Oil, and then poured it over the Jingu Bang.

"Master? What kind of treasure is this?" Watching Jiang Liu's actions, Sun Wukong asked out of curiosity and anticipation.

Having previously set a Soul Gem in it, Sun Wukong was very pleased. Now, it seemed something more was to be done with the Jingu Bang?

"You'll know in a moment!" With a slight smile, Jiang Liu gave no further explanation.

After being Soul Bound, Sun Wukong would definitely feel any changes to the Jingu Bang.

As expected, as the Twin Essence Oil was poured onto the Jingu Bang, it underwent transformation once again.

The original Jingu Bang was a rod sparkling with golden light, with a golden hoop at each end, which is why it was named Golden Hoop Rod.

But now, there was a purple gemstone in the center of the Jingu Bang, and the colors of the two golden hoops turned to red and blue.

As Sun Wukong grasped the Jingu Bang in his hand, he naturally felt its change and realized it had gained an additional ability.

"Master is amazing! My Jingu Bang has become even more powerful!" Sun Wukong exclaimed joyfully to Jiang Liu.

"Master is biased!"

However, at this time, Zhu Bajie couldn't help but loudly claim injustice: "You've improved Monkey Brother's staff twice, and you even secured a Blood-Transforming Divine Blade for Junior Brother Sha in the Demon Realm. Xiaobai is decked in Dharma Treasures, and I, Old Pig, am just a straightforward and honest man, but you can't be so biased and bully me, can you!?"

"What? Isn't what you want most to learn how to pursue girls? And now you want to upgrade your weapon too? Fine, if there's something suitable for you in the future, your Master will certainly not forget you!" Hearing Zhu Bajie complain while claiming to be a simple and honest man, Jiang Liu looked at him and asked.

"Err, no need, Master, my rake is pretty good, no need for upgrade. I, Old Pig, still find learning how to pursue girls the most important!" Hearing Jiang Liu's words, Zhu Bajie's heart made a swift choice!
