Journey to the West: Tang Monk Conquers Everything

With Jiang Liu's speed, he soon arrived at the Ming Sect, naturally, with Jiang Liu coming over, the people of the Ming Sect paid significant attention.

Especially the recent arrivals of Fahai and Long Eyebrow, they could feel the high level of importance the Ming Sect placed on Jiang Liu.

Inside a large conference room of the Ming Sect, the core leaders of the Ming Sect were all present.

Including figures like the Demon King Ox and his son, Mysterious Bird, and the Scorpion Demon, all gathered together.

In his prime form, Fahai glanced at the people around him, indeed, almost all the high-level members of the Ming Sect were present, which made Fahai secretly nod in his heart.

Surely, Master Xuanzang's status with the Ming Sect isn't just simply Gaoyang's lover.

Otherwise, the high-level members of the Ming Sect wouldn't treat this matter with such seriousness.

Of course, it's not just Fahai thinking this way, even Long Eyebrow had similar thoughts in his heart.

If the relationship between Master Xuanzang and Gaoyang was merely that, Master Xuanzang wouldn't be so keen on having himself join the Ming Sect.

Indeed, everything at the moment seems to prove my guess correct.

If Master Xuanzang was linked to the Ming Sect only because of Princess Gaoyang, then these core leaders wouldn't regard Jiang Liu so highly.

Regardless of Fahai and Long Eyebrow True Man's thoughts, while these people were waiting, Jiang Liu soon arrived at the doorway to the Ming Sect's conference room.

"Sect Hierarch!" At the entrance to the conference room, the Black Bear Demon wearing the Tight Hoop on his head greeted Jiang Liu as he walked over.

"Hmm, you're really something! Your cultivation level has improved a lot!" Jiang Liu nodded in satisfaction as he looked at the Black Bear Demon guarding the doorway.

After chatting with the Black Bear Demon for a few moments, the Black Bear Demon opened the door to the conference room, naturally, Jiang Liu walked right in.

As Jiang Liu entered the conference room, both Vice Sect Hierarch Red Boy and Princess Gaoyang stood up.

At the same time, Demon King Ox and the others naturally also rose to greet him.

Although, until now, no one knew what the real relationship between Jiang Liu and the Ming Sect was, seeing everyone stand up, Fahai and Long Eyebrow naturally wouldn't sit idle.

Especially Fahai, who had great respect for Jiang Liu; even if those around him hadn't stood, Fahai felt he should stand up to greet Jiang Liu.

"You don't have to do this, it puts quite a bit of pressure on me, everyone sit down!" Jiang Liu said as he walked into the meeting room, seeing everyone inside stand to welcome him.

"You are the Ming Sect Master, regardless of personal connections, there must be enough respect for you, and this must be adhered to!" As Jiang Liu finished speaking, Red Boy stood firm in his stance.

Red Boy's words made the others secretly nod in agreement.

Indeed, regardless of personal relations, since Jiang Liu is the Ming Sect Master, respect for him can't be compromised!

"Sect... Sect Hierarch...?" Hearing Red Boy's emphatic words, Fahai and Long Eyebrow were secretly surprised, their expressions slightly changing.

Immediately, clarity dawned in their hearts, originally finding certain matters strange and difficult to understand, but now, everything makes sense.

"So, the Ming Sect Master is Master Xuanzang? In this case, joining the Ming Sect seems like a natural course of action!" For Fahai, realizing Jiang Liu is the Ming Sect Master filled him with joy rather than surprise.

This means I will be following Master Xuanzang, which is certainly excellent.

As for Long Eyebrow, he too was mostly pleased.

Xuanzang is central to the Journey to the West for Scriptures, being the Ming Sect Master means at least within this Immeasurable Kalpa, the Ming Sect's power should be the safest among forces in this crisis, right?

"Regarding my identity as Ming Sect Master, this isn't suitable to be made public right now, so I've kept it hidden, and that counts as my fault!"

After everyone sat down, Jiang Liu focused his attention on Fahai and Long Eyebrow True Man, and spoke.

"I understand and can relate!" Hearing Jiang Liu's words, Fahai nodded, showing no concern.

"I see, I suddenly understand many things!" Long Eyebrow had a nonchalant attitude.

However, the more Long Eyebrow thought about it, the more alarmed he felt.

Xuanzang previously mentioned that many in the Ming Sect aimed to overthrow the Immortals and Buddhas, but he himself is the Ming Sect Master.

Doesn't that mean Master Xuanzang himself wants to overthrow the Immortals and Buddhas?

Is the Scripture Seeking Team's purpose to topple the Immortals and Buddhas? Just thinking about it is shocking, isn't it?

After all, everyone knows the Journey to the West for Scriptures is related to the flourishing of the Buddhist Sect.

Thinking deeply about it, this indeed is extremely terrifying!

"By the way, Jiang Liu..." At this moment, Princess Gaoyang spoke, her eyes falling on Jiang Liu.

Unlike other gang members, Gaoyang directly addressed Jiang Liu by name, saying: "Have you come to the Ming Sect today because there's something important to discuss?"

"Yes, there are some matters!" Jiang Liu slightly nodded in response to Gaoyang's words.

As he spoke, Jiang Liu's gaze swept across everyone present and asked, "What do you all think about the Enlightenment Hall!?"

"The Enlightenment Hall!? It's a really great place! Cultivating there feels ten times more effective than elsewhere!" Gaoyang was the first to speak in response to Jiang Liu's words, expressing her thoughts.

"Moreover, pondering my own magic supernatural powers in the Enlightenment Hall always seems to yield greater insights!" After Gaoyang spoke, Red Boy also voiced his opinion.

After all, many of the ideas and realizations concerning the fusion of the Samadhi True Fire and True Sun Fire came about in the Enlightenment Hall recently.

"Indeed, the Enlightenment Hall is truly a treasure of a place!" Following the words of Gaoyang and Red Boy, everyone present began expressing their opinions one after another.

Clearly, everyone had a praiseworthy attitude toward the existence of the Enlightenment Hall.

"Yes, the Enlightenment Hall indeed offers great assistance for contemplation and meditative cultivation!" After hearing everyone's words, Jiang Liu nodded and said.

After a slight pause, Jiang Liu continued, "However, it doesn't help with the practical application of one's magic supernatural powers, which is why I've brought a treasure to the Ming Sect called the Martial Arts Ground!"

"Martial Arts Ground!?" Upon hearing Jiang Liu's words, everyone's gaze turned towards him.

Everyone knew about Martial Arts Grounds; many cultivation sects had such a place for people to practice sparring.

However, since Xuanzang specifically mentioned this Martial Arts Ground, it mustn't be an ordinary one, right?

Surely it possesses some magical special effects like the Enlightenment Hall?

Seeing everyone looking at him inquisitively, Jiang Liu understood their thoughts and began to explain: "This Martial Arts Ground is enormous and can accommodate many people sparring simultaneously..."

"Moreover, sparring there greatly aids in mastering one's supernatural powers, and it can even enhance one's cultivation level during the process!"

Jiang Liu elaborated on the functionality of this Martial Arts Ground for everyone.

Indeed, these are the attributes of an epic-level Martial Arts Ground, offering significant benefits.

It can increase skill proficiency and add experience points.

Of course, for Jiang Liu, the Martial Arts Ground seemed somewhat redundant.

After all, Jiang Liu had many skill points and could directly enhance skill levels through selling points, rather than just increasing proficiency.

However, Jiang Liu understood that, like the Enlightenment Hall, the Martial Arts Ground was a supporting facility of the gang's base. Therefore, after establishing the Martial Arts Ground, Jiang Liu personally came to the Ming Sect to deliver it.

He also intended to ease Long Eyebrow's concerns.

Otherwise, Jiang Liu could have stored the Martial Arts Ground in the gang's treasury and let Red Boy fetch it from the Ming Sect if needed.

After setting up the Martial Arts Ground, the high-ranking officials of the Ming Sect curiously entered and commenced sparring.

They naturally calmed their minds to experience the Martial Arts Ground's wonders.

Indeed, as sparring continued on the Martial Arts Ground, the mastery of supernatural powers increased rapidly.

Even the cultivation level improved decently along with the sparring.

Though not comparable to the meditation and cultivation in the Enlightenment Hall, this speed of improvement was significantly faster than regular seated meditation.

"Very good. Although the pure cultivation gain is inferior to the Enlightenment Hall, the simultaneous familiarization with magic and cultivation improvement is quite satisfactory!"

Observing for a moment, Jiang Liu nodded in satisfaction.

For Jiang Liu, delivering the Martial Arts Hall while revealing a bit of his identity to Fahai and Long Eyebrow was the purpose of his visit to the Ming Sect.

After finishing his tasks, Jiang Liu didn't intend to linger at the Ming Sect. After chatting with everyone briefly, Jiang Liu began to bid farewell to the members of the Ming Sect, preparing to leave.

"Jiang Liu, wait..." Just as Jiang Liu was wrapping things up and about to leave, Gaoyang called out to him.

Gaoyang then walked to a secluded area nearby.

Seeing Jiang Liu's posture, many in the Ming Sect showed mysterious smiles and gradually dispersed.

"Gaoyang, are you reluctant to see me go and want me to stay?" Jiang Liu asked, a playful smile on his face as he approached Gaoyang.

"I have serious matters to discuss!" Gaoyang replied with an earnest expression.

"Recently, a rumor has been spreading, saying that the mysterious black-clothed person who holds the Tai Chi Diagram is the same person who injured Master Wuchao..."
