Journey to the West: Tang Monk Conquers Everything

Jiang Liu sliced through the sky, speeding towards the distance, fleeing for his life!

Behind Jiang Liu, Guanyin was swiftly in pursuit.

One after the other, the two quickly vanished into the sky.

At the Great Nirvana Temple, many looked on in bewilderment as Jiang Liu and Guanyin chased each other away, exchanging astonished glances.

It seemed like Guanyin was chasing after the Dark Robe. What had happened between them?

...

Leaving aside what the people at the Great Nirvana Temple were thinking, Jiang Liu pushed his speed to the limit, his velocity reaching its peak.

Being discovered by Guanyin was unexpected for Jiang Liu; now that he had been found, he naturally chose to flee for his life.

However, as fast as Jiang Liu was, he was only Level 70 after all, at the peak of the Heavenly Immortal Realm.

But what about Guanyin? She was among the best of the Daluo Golden Immortals.

Thus, as Jiang Liu fled for his life, Guanyin followed leisurely behind, making it clear that there was no chance for him to escape.

After about half an hour of escape, having flown a thousand miles away, Jiang Liu turned his head to see Guanyin's figure still persistently trailing behind him.

The distance between them was neither close nor far, clearly showing a cat-and-mouse attitude.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Liu no longer flew; he stopped midair, his feet hovering over a pitch-black sea.

"What, not running anymore? Given up? Have you chosen this Dead Demon Sea as your final resting place?" Guanyin asked with a cold expression, her figure also stopping midair, quietly watching Jiang Liu.

To kill?

No hurry, before killing, it was natural for Guanyin to first pry out some information she wanted from Jiang Liu's mouth.

"Could you be misunderstanding something?" Jiang Liu floated in midair, his gaze on Guanyin, speaking calmly, "It seems you are quite sure of yourself. Whether this will be my final resting place or yours is not so easy to determine, is it?"

Jiang Liu's words left Guanyin looking at him in astonishment, incredulous.

What's going on? This guy is just a subordinate under the Black Robe, right?

Even the Black Robe doesn't have the right to talk to her like this. A subordinate of his dares to speak such words?

This Dead Demon Sea is his final resting place? Could it be that his Cultivation Level has reached the Quasi-Saint Realm?

Below Quasi-Saint, there shouldn't be anyone who can confidently take her life, right?

"Ignorant of life and death..." Surprised inside, Guanyin's mouth curled into a mocking smile, and she shook her head slightly.

At the same time, she raised her palm, clearly preparing to make her move.

However, observing Guanyin's action, Jiang Liu raised his hand. In that instant, a sky-overwhelming murderous aura surged forth, turning into a piercing storm of lethal energy.

The entire Dead Demon Sea violently trembled at that moment.

"What?! How is this possible? Such formidable murderous aura!" Raising her hand to guard her face, feeling the ferocious storm of murderous aura slamming against her, Guanyin was in disbelief, scrutinizing Jiang Liu carefully.

Then, Guanyin's eyes suddenly contracted as if she had seen a ghost.

A Divine Sword appeared in Jiang Liu's hand, and it was from this sword that the terrible murderous aura burst forth.

Guanyin's gaze fell on the Divine Sword in Jiang Liu's hand, crying out in shock, "The Absolute Immortal Sword!?"

"Indeed, you still recognize this sword, very good... very good..." Holding the Absolute Immortal Sword, Jiang Liu nodded slightly.

To subdue Guanyin and pry from her the whereabouts of Bajie's Golden Body, Jiang Liu naturally spent another 100,000 Silver, buying a Primary Level Equipment Trial Coupon from the marketplace and taking out the Absolute Immortal Sword once again.

"You, it's you... You are the one..." Guanyin's face showed disbelief, pointing at Jiang Liu while stepping back gradually.

Previously, when the Baosheng Buddha of the Buddhist Realm was killed and even the Empress nearly met the same fate, it shook all three realms.

The identity of the assailant was likely to be the new disciple of Sect Master Tongtian, and that story naturally spread far and wide.

After all, the Absolute Immortal Sword spoke for itself!

Moreover, the rumor that only those above Quasi-Saint could wield the Absolute Immortal Sword was also well known.

Looking at Jiang Liu in horror, Guanyin stepped back, her complexion turning uglier by the second, even wishing she could slap herself twice.

What's with the jinx? She had just been secretly scoffing at the man for being so arrogant, as if he thought himself a Quasi-Saint.

Who could have guessed that this guy actually was a Quasi-Saint!?

And one equipped with such a Great Killing Weapon as the Absolute Immortal Sword!?

Thinking carefully about the legends concerning this person, dressed in a robe that concealed their face, wielding a Divine Artifact like the Absolute Immortal Sword, his appearance matched completely!

"So it's true, the numerous mighty ones of the Three Realms and Six Paths have been seeking his whereabouts, yet he's been hiding in the Great Nirvana Temple all along!?"

At this moment, Guanyin truly felt like weeping.

Moreover, this feeling was eerily familiar to her.

When she was in charge of overseeing the Journey to the West, fate always played such tricks on her, causing her to suffer great losses out of the blue.

Now that she had left the coordination work of the Journey to the West behind and had even come to the Demon Realm, why did it still feel the same as before?

Is it fate's will, like a knife, unwilling to spare me?

Jiang Liu didn't care about whatever was on Guanyin's mind. Clutching the Absolute Immortal Sword, his other divine sword rose in unison.

"Wait, elder..." Seeing the Absolute Immortal Sword raised high in Jiang Liu's hand, Guanyin's complexion turned to shock as she hastily spoke.

She was acutely aware of Baosheng Buddha's strength; he had perished under the Absolute Immortal Sword.

Guanyin was even more aware of Empress's Quasi-Saint cultivation level, who had nearly been cleaved to death by a single strike, even dropping the Treasure Lotus Lantern.

At this moment, she definitely wasn't his match. If that were the case, it was naturally better to acknowledge defeat straightforwardly.

"What's the matter? Do you have something to say?" Jiang Liu asked indifferently, looking at Guanyin with composure, sword in hand, as though victory was already his.

"Elder, you and I have no old grudges, and no recent quarrels. If there's anything you wish to ask, just ask me directly. I have nothing to hide and will tell you all!" Guanyin said, admitting defeat without any hesitation.

"No, on the contrary, I think it's most proper to beat you half to death first and then ask you in detail!" However, Jiang Liu shook his head at Guanyin's words.

A joke, right? I've already spent 100,000 silver to buy an Equipment Trial Coupon. Taking down Guanyin should be a piece of cake.

All those Experience Points, and there's even a chance to drop some good loot—not want them? Of course, it's better to defeat her first and then talk.

As soon as his words fell, Jiang Liu's Absolute Immortal Sword swung directly at Guanyin.

The Sky-Overflowing Sword Qi, which felt as if it could exterminate heaven and earth, pressed down on Guanyin.

Ah!

Facing the terrifying sword qi coming straight at her, Guanyin cried out in alarm and then marshaled all her powers to resist the sword qi.

But the dreadful sword qi was unstoppable, and Guanyin's attempt to defend was utterly futile in the face of the attack from the Absolute Immortal Sword.

Her entire being was directly pressed into the Dead Demon Sea.

"Oh? Her techniques are not bad!" Jiang Liu was inwardly surprised to see that Guanyin still had more than half of her Health Bar left after putting up her defenses.

Instantly, the Absolute Immortal Sword was swung again.

Another wave of Sky-Overflowing Sword Qi descended.

This strike made Guanyin's Health Bar perilously low.

"Wait, elder, let's talk..." Seeing Jiang Liu raise his sword for the third strike, Guanyin shouted loudly.

She knew very well that, grievously wounded as she was, she absolutely couldn't withstand this third wave of sword qi.

The Absolute Immortal Sword, a divine weapon of Sect Master Tongtian, was indeed formidable. Held by just anyone, its power was beyond what she could bear.

Whoosh!

Jiang Liu had no intention of stopping his attacks in response to Guanyin's shouts. The Absolute Immortal Sword swung for the third time.

The fearsome Sky-Overflowing Sword Qi appeared once again, plummeting straight toward Guanyin.

Heaven and earth trembled violently, as if the entire Dead Demon Sea was split open by the overwhelming sword qi.

In Jiang Liu's eyes, the Health Bar above Guanyin's head was instantly depleted.

Notification: You have gained 3.82 million Experience Points and 78,500 silver.

As Guanyin's Health Bar emptied, the system's notification resounded in Jiang Liu's mind.

What a haul, a grand haul!

Nearly 4 million Experience Points and nearly 80,000 silver, the rewards were quite substantial for Jiang Liu.

Such a haul was second only to that from Baosheng Buddha back in the day.

And besides Experience Points and silver, could other treasures have also dropped?

After opening his inventory, Jiang Liu felt a stir in his heart, and saw a black mirror had appeared inside it.

As Jiang Liu's gaze fixed upon it, the corresponding attributes of the black mirror emerged before him.

Treasure-Seeking Mirror (Special Prop): Say the name of the treasure you're searching for, and the mirror will point you in the direction of the treasure's location. Cooldown time: 10 days.

"Huh? What a nifty item!" Jiang Liu's expression brightened as he examined the attributes of the black mirror.

Zoom!

As Jiang Liu's thoughts lingered on the Treasure-Seeking Mirror, suddenly, he saw a figure rapidly approaching from the sky,

and in the blink of an eye, it appeared right in front of him.

"Dark Robe, you..."

The newcomer was Black Robe. He had learned that Dark Robe had fled the Great Nirvana Temple under Guanyin's pursuit and had chased after him. But now, what was he witnessing?

Dark Robe was indeed levitating before him, but could he actually be holding the Absolute Immortal Sword in his hand?

"So it turns out, you are the spy!"

Seeing the Absolute Immortal Sword in Jiang Liu's hand, Black Robe cried out in alarm.
