Journey to the West: Tang Monk Conquers Everything

After returning to the mortal world, Jiang Liu released his hand and directly returned the Spider Demoness's soul to her own body.

Next to him, Sun Wukong and several other Spider Demonesses were seriously staring at the body on the ground.

The eyes of the other Spider Demonesses naturally filled with a mix of nervousness, unease, and anticipation.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the body of the Spider Demoness lying on the ground twitched slightly, and then, her eyes slowly opened.

Immediately, a strange light flashed, and the Spider Demoness transformed back into her previous appearance, dressed in red Taoist robes.

"Big sister, you've been resurrected, you really have been resurrected, that's wonderful!" said the other Spider Demonesses around her, their faces filled with surprise.

"Yes, my sisters, I have come back to life, it's wonderful!" the Spider Demoness in red also said joyfully.

Being resurrected was naturally a cause for joy.

Immediately, the red-clad Spider Demoness turned to Jiang Liu, solemnly bowed in gratitude, and said, "Thank you, Holy Monk, thank you for your help! I will be forever grateful for this immense kindness!"

"Alert: Quest 'Resurrection' completed, earned 230 million Experience Points, received one Epic Level Treasure Chest."

At that moment, suddenly, the system's notification sounded, bringing a hint of joy to Jiang Liu's expression.

An epic quest was completed? With another 230 million Experience Points, he had moved one step closer to level 70.

With 18 billion Experience Points needed to level up, now it looked like only a little over 2 billion remained.

Of course, besides the Experience Points, the epic treasure chest was the most important reward.

Jiang Liu immediately accessed his inventory space.

Indeed, there was an extra treasure chest in his inventory space.

He took out the treasure chest and slowly opened it.

As the lid of the treasure chest was lifted, Jiang Liu quickly took out the contents—a thin booklet.

Jiang Liu carefully examined the words on the booklet, which read: "Skill Enhancement."

"What? Skill Enhancement? What does that mean?" Jiang Liu wondered to himself as he looked at the booklet with the words "Skill Enhancement."

As Jiang Liu's gaze lingered, soon the corresponding attribute information for Skill Enhancement appeared in front of him.

Skill Enhancement: A special skill with no profession restrictions, allowing the enhancement of any learned skill, with specific enhancement effects: unknown.

"Wow, what a magical skill book!" As Jiang Liu looked at the attribute information of this skill enhancement, his eyebrows raised slightly—any skill could be enhanced?

Although the enhancement effects were unknown, it was still an enhancement, right?

It couldn't possibly be a weakening, could it?

Silencing Zen enhancement? What would that entail? Increased silence duration?

What about Vajra Mantra? Increase in the number of times damage is blocked? Or the percentage of damage exempted?

Or what about Sheep Transformation Technique, Weakness Talisman, Guanyin Mantra, Strengthening Demon-Subduing Mantra, Soul-Returning Spell?

With myriad thoughts swirling in his mind, Jiang Liu scanned over all his skills, wondering which one to enhance? Which skill did he need to enhance the most?

After pondering for a long time, Jiang Liu felt it hard to decide.

But after a moment of contemplation, an idea struck him.

He had a Skill Badge that could store skills in advance.

Which skill was usually stored in this Skill Badge?

Hand of Healing!

Speaking of it, in group battles, the effectiveness of the Hand of Healing was indeed crucial. Not only did it provide healing effects, but the undestroyable nature of the holy object it conjured was also considered a long-duration single-target control skill.

So, after thinking for a moment, Jiang Liu immediately accessed the special category of Skill Enhancement and chose to enhance the Hand of Healing.

In his mind, a plethora of information emerged.

Regarding the Hand of Healing, it was as if Jiang Liu had an epiphany—he instantly grasped a higher level of information about the Hand of Healing.

It was like riding a bicycle; he had already been cycling fast.

But suddenly, a realization hit him: if he added a battery to the bicycle, wouldn't it go even faster?

After the enhancement was completed, Jiang Liu accessed his skill list and his gaze fell on the upgraded Hand of Healing.

Indeed, the skill had transformed.

Healing Holy Hand (Enhanced): Summons an undestroyable holy object from the sky, healing 1% of maximum health per second for all friendly targets within a kilometer radius, lasting for 30 seconds, cooldown 1200 seconds.

Awesome!

Seeing the upgraded skill of Healing Holy Hand, Jiang Liu was both amazed and delighted.

The name Hand of Healing had also changed to Healing Holy Hand; indeed, the enhancement wasn't just a minor improvement.

First, the duration changed from 20 seconds to 30 seconds, which means the healing amount was directly increased by half!

But what's even more important? The healing range.

Originally, the healing range was only within a radius of a hundred meters. Now, it had become a radius of a kilometer?

Looking at it in terms of area, how is the area of a circle calculated? π*R squared?

The value of π is inconvenient; the square of a 100-meter radius is 10,000.

What about the square of 1000 meters? A million!?

So, looking at the healing area, the healing area of the Healing Holy Hand had increased by a full 100 times!?

This wasn't just a simple enhancement; this was evolution, a complete transformation!

Healing Holy Hand?

Indeed, with this state, it was worthy of being called the Holy Hand!

"Master? Master?" After Jiang Liu has enhanced the Hand of Healing Skill, his mind was completely focused on the evolved Healing Holy Hand skill. At that moment, Zhu Bajie on the side couldn't help but speak up, calling out to Jiang Liu a few times.

"What's the matter?" Coming back to his senses, Jiang Liu's gaze fell on Zhu Bajie.

"Master, the sisters from Pansi Spider Cave said they want to serve us, to run our errands and do our chores, hehehe, aren't you going to say something?" Zhu Bajie's face bore a sleazy and expectant expression as he rubbed his hands together and asked.

"You fool, what do you want Master to say? Should Master say, let's take them with us to the Western Heaven to serve us tea, wash our laundry, make our beds?" Zhu Bajie's comment made Sun Wukong look at him with exasperation and remark.

"Hehehe, if that's really the case, then nothing could be better!" Hearing Sun Wukong's words, Zhu Bajie's eyes shone even brighter.

Zhu Bajie's words made Jiang Liu shake his head helplessly.

However, although keeping the seven Spider Demonesses by his side was implausible, all of them being Demon Immortals could be a nice addition to Ming Sect.

Just as he was about to say something,

suddenly, a thought struck him.

Something's not right!

How had that red-garbed Female Demon died before? Was it said she died by his hand?

That was Maitreya Buddha framing him, wasn't it!?

Did this imply that Maitreya Buddha's attention was continuously on this side?

Previously, when Guanyin was in charge of overseeing the Journey to the West, Sun Wukong's divine skills enabled them to detect if Bodhisattva was monitoring them, so they could speak freely.

But Maitreya Buddha was of Quasi-Saint level, even Tingdi couldn't hear anything related to him.

Thinking this, Jiang Liu decided not to mention taking the Spider Demonesses to Flame Cloud Entertainment City. Instead, he just sent a friend request to the red-garbed Female Demon.

After waiting a moment, a look of surprise flashed across the face of the red-garbed Female Demon, and the friend request was accepted.

Since the friend request was accepted, Jiang Liu didn't feel the need to say anything more. He bid the Spider Demonesses farewell and continued on his journey westward, pulling Zhu Bajie and the others along.

The initial intention to resurrect the red-garbed Female Demon was to investigate who was framing him. Now that he had an idea of who it was, Jiang Liu didn't even ask the Female Demon for her input.

"Master, are we just leaving like this? Actually, keeping them wouldn't be bad, having someone to make our beds and warm our blankets as the weather turns cold in a few months, wouldn't that be nice?"

Having walked quite a distance, Zhu Bajie still looked back every three steps, reluctantly speaking to Jiang Liu.

"Bajie, you are well fed and pampered, fattening up this body of yours, but when you get cold, these fats refuse to burn themselves to keep you warm. What use is such fat?"

After closing the friend list and addressing the red-garbed Spider Demoness, Jiang Liu turned his head and looked at Zhu Bajie, remarking.

"Uh, well…" Jiang Liu's words made Zhu Bajie pause.

On reflection, it seemed Master's point was faultless?

"Big sister, the Holy Monk and his group just left like that, what should we do next?" After watching Jiang Liu and his group depart, an orange-garbed Female Demon spoke up.

"Yes, big sister, should we continue to stay in Pansi Spider Cave?" the other Spider Demonesses chimed in in unison.

"No, sisters, I've heard that Flame Cloud Entertainment City is quite interesting, and I've wanted to visit it for a while. Today, being resurrected from almost death, I think the most important thing in life is to be happy. How about we go and have fun there for a few days?" the red-garbed Female Demon suggested.

"Go to Flame Cloud Entertainment City for fun? Yes, let's do that!" Hearing their big sister's words, the purple-garbed Female Demon was the first to jump up, agreeing excitedly.

"Then let's go to Pansi Spider Cave to pack up first!" Seeing that her sisters agreed, the red-garbed Female Demon nodded and added.

No sooner had the words fallen than the seven Spider Demonesses returned to Pansi Spider Cave to pack.

However, while packing, the Spider Demonesses began to feel something was amiss.

"Big sister, we're just going to play for a few days, do we need to pack so many things? Doesn't this seem like we're moving out!?" The orange-garbed Female Demon couldn't help but ask.

"Stop talking and just pack!" However, the red-garbed Female Demon didn't elaborate further.

Once packed, the seven Spider Demonesses directly flew toward the direction of Flame Cloud Entertainment City.
