Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me-Chapter 85: Meeting Liu Bang Again

The surrounding chaotic energy seemed to be drawn in, one by one, into Jiang Chen’s body, enhancing his power and purifying his physical body and bloodline.

Gradually, under the baptism of chaotic energy, the aura emanating from Jiang Chen became ancient and magnificently deep, as though it was born before even the heavens and earth, absolutely mysterious.

At the same time, the supreme Divine Ability of the Qilin tribe, Buzhou Seal, started to operate on its own upon sensing the aura of the Pangu Axe.

In a trance, the towering image of a divine mountain quietly appeared behind Jiang Chen, emanating an aura that could suppress the past, present, and future.

This was the image of Mount Buzhou!

Jiang Chen had never seen Mount Buzhou, but with the resonance between the Buzhou Seal and the shadow of the Pangu Axe, an image of Mount Buzhou was forcibly conjured from the past, materializing behind him.

Facing the image of Mount Buzhou directly and feeling its true intentions, Jiang Chen intuitively felt his understanding of the Buzhou Seal deepening rapidly.

Buzz buzz buzz...

As time passed, the aura emanating from Jiang Chen became even more mysterious. At some moment, it seemed as if some sort of shackles had been broken, and his momentum suddenly shot up.

He had broken through!

Jiang Chen had broken through!

From the Heavenly Human 3rd Level, he had broken through to the Heavenly Human 4th Level. In terms of the Immortal Dao, it was as if he had broken through from a celestial deity to a Mysterious Immortal.

"Phew~~~"

After some more time, when Jiang Chen’s level had completely stabilized, he exhaled a long breath and woke up.

Boom!

With a light clenching of his fist, a vast and mighty aura billowed out from his body, transforming into a hot airflow that twisted the surrounding space.

"Not bad!" Jiang Chen nodded approvingly, very satisfied with his current power.

If he had such great power during his time in the Eastern Sea, he could have subdued Sun Wukong with one move, without having to listen to his prattle.

Folding back his energy, Jiang Chen casually waved his Dao Mirror.

Suddenly, the Dao Mirror changed drastically, transforming into a gem. Surrounded by the aura of chaos, it looked incredibly similar to the Chaos Pearl.

Then, Jiang Chen shook the gem again. With a swish, the Dao Mirror changed again, changing from the previous gem into an axe.

The axe looked simple and ordinary, with a coarse exterior that radiated a raw, primitive beauty. It was strikingly similar to the Pangu Axe.

This was the newly born ability of the Dao Mirror.

It could transform into the form of the Pangu Axe and Chaos Pearl, and inherited most of their functions, though its power was reduced manifold.

In other words, the Dao Mirror was a greatly weakened version of the Pangu Axe and Chaos Pearl. If Jiang Chen wanted to enhance the power of the Dao Mirror, he would have to continuously search for shards of the Pangu Axe and the Chaos Pearl.

"Change!"

After playing around with the Pangu Axe and Chaos Pearl for a while, Jiang Chen suddenly turned the Dao Mirror back to its original form and infused his own mana into it.

Buzz buzz buzz...

Under Jiang Chen’s urging, the Dao Mirror suddenly began to vibrate violently. Then, a primordial chill-filled long arrow slowly emerged from the mirror’s surface.

The Shooting Sun Divine Arrow!

This long arrow looked exactly like the Shooting Sun Divine Arrow that had been devoured by the Dao Mirror, the only difference being that its power was somewhat weaker.

This was another feature of the Dao Mirror, the ability to mirror everything. Everything illuminated by it could be truly reflected.

But, this was the Dao Mirror at its peak.

The current Dao Mirror could not accomplish this.

After consecutively devouring the shards of the Pangu Axe and the Chaos Pearl, some of the Dao Mirror’s power was restored.

As long as Jiang Chen could pay enough strength, the Dao Mirror could recreate all the treasures it had devoured.

As for the power of the mirrored treasures, that totally depended on how much strength Jiang Chen was willing to pay. The more he paid, the stronger the mirrored treasures would be.

Theoretically, as long as Jiang Chen was willing to pay a big enough price, he could even mirror the Golden Crow’s original source.

But this would be somewhat unworthy.

With so much strength, there were better things Jiang Chen could use it for than swapping it for the Golden Crow’s original source. Besides, he was not without a way of acquiring the Golden Crow’s original source. He didn’t need to expend so much effort.

"This power, is enough to kill a common Mysterious Immortal now."

After weighing the Shooting Sun Divine Arrow mirrored by the Dao Mirror, Jiang Chen estimated its power internally.

A one-time consumable, which had power enough to kill a Mysterious Immortal. In the Nanbuzhan Continent, where immortals and gods were hidden, this treasure was indeed a great weapon.

Putting away the Shooting Sun Divine Arrow, Jiang Chen erased his traces of being here. Using the Dao Mirror, he also disguised the area, restoring it to its original state.

Rumble!

The Sun True Fire burst forth, forming a sea of golden fire here. In the center of the fire sea, a ball of golden light emerged.

That was the corpse of the Great Sun Golden Crow that Jiang Chen created using the Dao Mirror. It was a facsimile that could absolutely deceive onlookers as long as they did not touch it closely.

"This looks much better."

Jiang Chen nodded in satisfaction at his arrangements and turned to leave.

...

.....

Leaving Li Mountain Hot Springs, Jiang Chen, after some thought, did not return to the Jiang Family immediately, but headed towards the city of Chang’an.

Everyone said that Chang’an was prosperous. In both his current and past lives, Jiang Chen had never been there. Now that he had the chance, he definitely wanted to have a good look.

With that thought, Jiang Chen used his space-transcending technique to proceed towards his destination, and soon Chang’an appeared in front of him.

He did not know if it was because he looked too handsome and eye-catching, but as soon as he arrived at the outskirts of Chang’an, he was stopped by someone.

"Young Master Jiang, please hold on."

A familiar voice. I know this person.

Hearing someone calling him, Jiang Chen thought for a moment and recognized the identity of the caller.

It was Liu Bang!

The Emperor of the Great Han, Liu Bang!

Turning his head, Jiang Chen looked towards the source of the voice, and what entered his eyes was a team of elite soldiers. They were surrounding a luxurious carriage, pulled by six steeds.

Liu Bang was sitting in this carriage. It was he who had opened the carriage curtain to speak to Jiang Chen.

"An audience with the Emperor!" Jiang Chen saluted slightly.

As the ruler of a nation, endowed with the Fate of the human race, Jiang Chen could be dissatisfied with him, but he could not disrespect him.

"Young Master Jiang is too polite!"

"We have not seen each other for a long time. Now that we have a chance to reunite, would you accompany me for a while to admire this splendid country?"

Liu Bang invited Jiang Chen as he stepped down from the carriage.

"I would indeed wish to accompany you. I dare not ask for more." Responding politely, Jiang Chen accepted Liu Bang’s invitation and stepped onto the carriage.

Inside the carriage, Jiang Chen realized that the carriage was no ordinary one — it contained another world within it. What he saw was a palace with vast space.

Sumeru in a mustard seed, mustard seed containing Sumeru.

This was a space-imparted Divine Ability!
