Journey to the West: Tang Monk Conquers Everything

Chapter 965: Jiang Liu Ascends 12 Levels



"It's actually the Treasure of Destiny of the Human Clan, the Kongdong Seal!?"

Looking at the treasure that protected Emperor Ziwei from Sun Wukong and their attack, Jiang Liu's expression changed, and he couldn't help but be secretly astonished in his heart.

The Human Clan has a treasure, named the Kongdong Seal, which suppresses the destiny of the entire Human Clan.

And the Human Clan is now the protagonist of the world, the destiny contained in this Kongdong Seal is evident!

However, this treasure of the Human Clan, the Kongdong Seal, has always been controlled by the Human Emperor. Why is it now in the hands of Emperor Ziwei?

Completely incomprehensible!

"Phew, luckily, with this Kongdong Seal in hand, the force of the Human Clan's destiny enhances my defense. I believe even a Saint wouldn't strike casually!"

Seeing his Kongdong Seal successfully block Sun Wukong and their attack, Emperor Ziwei secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

This Kongdong Seal is the supreme treasure of the Human Clan, naturally always controlled by the Human Emperor.

Emperor Ziwei was reincarnated many times, one of those was the son of King Wen of Zhou, Bo Yikao.

Although he died later, he was granted the title of Emperor Ziwei again.

Initially, the role of Emperor Ziwei seemed to be a catalyst to draw out the Marquis of the West's rebellion against Great Shang.

But no one knew that during the Deification War, Emperor Ziwei secretly acquired the Kongdong Seal from the last Human Emperor, King Zhou.

Originally, the Heavenly Court intended to abolish the Human Emperor. Without this supreme treasure, the Kongdong Seal, there would be no Human Emperor in the mortal world, only self-proclaimed Sons of Heaven.

This Kongdong Seal is of great significance, so over the years, Emperor Ziwei had it in his control but never showed it to anyone.

Only today, on the brink of life and death, Emperor Ziwei couldn't care less and could only take out the Kongdong Seal for self-protection.

Indeed, with this Kongdong Seal, which almost gathers the destiny of the Human Clan, Sun Wukong and the others found it difficult to do anything against him.

"The Kongdong Seal, such a supreme treasure, is actually in the hands of Emperor Ziwei!?"

Seeing the Kongdong Seal controlled by Emperor Ziwei, Jiang Liu was secretly astonished; this scene was completely beyond Jiang Liu's expectations.

Crack!

Holding the Kongdong Seal, Emperor Ziwei moved his heart as he wished, and a ray of light from the Kongdong Seal fell upon the holy object of the Healing Holy Hand.

Soon, in the eyes of Jiang Liu and the others, they saw numerous cracks rapidly appear on this holy object, which then shattered into pieces.

"How powerful!"

His Healing Holy Hand's holy object was supposed to be indestructible, yet under the force of the Kongdong Seal, it shattered directly? Seeing this, Jiang Liu's expression changed dramatically.

It seems that this is the first time his Healing Holy Hand's holy object has been destroyed by someone!?

"Xuanzang, your methods indeed shock me, but now, do you still need me to explain to you?" Holding the Kongdong Seal, Emperor Ziwei regained his freedom from the suppression of the Healing Holy Hand, his gaze falling on Jiang Liu as he spoke.

"Alas…" Emperor Ziwei's words made Jiang Liu sigh secretly with some helplessness in his heart.

Then, Jiang Liu spoke, "Emperor, having the Kongdong Seal, such a treasure, is shocking. In that case, let's just close the matter of Feidan here!"

"Master!" Hearing Jiang Liu's words, Sun Wukong beside him became anxious.

They had already made a move, but at this moment, Master wanted to let it go? Sun Wukong was naturally displeased.

However, Jiang Liu gestured for Sun Wukong to remain silent.

If they could kill Emperor Ziwei, would there still be a need for Sun Wukong to speak? Jiang Liu would have already done so.

But with the Kongdong Seal in hand, he simply couldn't kill him.

Although the Kongdong Seal is not an Innate Supreme Treasure, by suppressing the Human Clan's destiny, its value is not inferior to the Tai Chi Diagram and Pangu Banner, those Innate Supreme Treasures.

What can he do?

To attack someone holding the Kongdong Seal is almost the equivalent of attacking a Human Emperor, which would create significant karmic consequences.

Even a Saint dares not get involved; can he possibly be more powerful than a Saint!?

During the Deification, King Zhou held the Kongdong Seal, was respected as a Human Emperor, and had a status and position entirely on par with the Great Jade Emperor.

Back then, even the already sanctified Goddess Nvwa, who was very displeased with King Zhou, could not attack him directly, which is telling, isn't it?

If not for the Goddess Nvwa sending the three demons of the Xuanyuan Tomb to successfully have Daji steal the Kongdong Seal from King Zhou, the outcome of the Deification War would have been uncertain.

Later, the reincarnated Bo Yikao of Emperor Ziwei seduced with beauty tactics to deceive Daji and obtain the Kongdong Seal from her.

Well, Master gestures to keep silent, so what can Sun Wukong say?

He can only shut his mouth.

However, he feels somewhat aggrieved in his heart.

Actually, not only does Sun Wukong feel aggrieved, Emperor Ziwei feels likewise aggrieved in his heart.

As one of the Four Emperors, he was forced to use the supreme treasure of the Kongdong Seal, truly pushed to the brink of life and death.

However, with the Kongdong Seal already revealed, it should logically not be difficult to destroy Xuanzang and the others.

But unfortunately, the group including Xuanzang were all people destined for the Journey to the West for Scriptures, so they couldn't make a move!

Therefore, feeling frustrated inside, Emperor Ziwei's face didn't look good. After a brief conversation with Jiang Liu, neither could take action.

Finally, Emperor Ziwei turned around and left.

"Master, why didn't you make a move!" After Emperor Ziwei left, Sun Wukong finally spoke and asked Jiang Liu.

"Monkey Brother, that's the Kongdong Seal, related to the destiny of the Human Clan. Not just us, even the Great Jade Emperor and the Tathagata can't make a move against it!"

With Zhu Bajie's broader knowledge outmatching Sun Wukong's, Jiang Liu hadn't even responded before Zhu Bajie hurriedly explained.

"Why can't we make a move!?" Sun Wukong still seemed a bit puzzled, asking Zhu Bajie.

"It is said that long ago, the Kongdong Seal was in the hands of the Human Emperor, and there was some disagreement with the Goddess Nvwa. The Goddess wanted to strike against the Human Emperor, but as soon as she flew over the Human Emperor, a rainbow light descended from the heavens, blocking the Goddess Nvwa, preventing her from making a move!" Zhu Bajie explained to Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong: "..."

Alright, concepts like destiny are too abstract and elusive for Sun Wukong to comprehend.

However, since Goddess Nvwa is a Saint and even she was stopped, naturally, Sun Wukong and the others couldn't make a move either; that much, Sun Wukong could understand.

"The Kongdong Seal! As long as the Human Clan remains the protagonist of heaven and earth, the destiny of the Kongdong Seal is invincible!" Jiang Liu naturally overheard Zhu Bajie's words and inwardly sighed.

Indeed, it's almost an invincible existence, something even more formidable than the Innate Five-Directional Flag.

"So? Are we always to be helpless against the Kongdong Seal?" After a moment of silence, Sun Wukong felt a bit unwilling.

They had fought to this stage, seemingly about to execute Emperor Ziwei, yet he was able to leave with impunity, and they couldn't even make a move. This was hard for Sun Wukong to accept.

Moreover, the main concern was if they couldn't act this time, then what about the next time a similar situation arises?

Are they destined to be obstructed by a single Kongdong Seal forever?

"Of course not!" Hearing Sun Wukong's words, a serious look crossed Jiang Liu's brow as he replied firmly.

If they didn't know, it might have been different, but now that they knew, the threat of the Kongdong Seal naturally had to be eradicated.

Otherwise, in the final battle that overturns the Immortals and Buddhas, wouldn't they also be blocked by the Kongdong Seal?

The Kongdong Seal is a treasure of the Human Clan, so logically, it should be in the hands of the Human Clan, right?

Although Emperor Ziwei, in his previous life, was Bo Yikao and thus also of the Human Clan, being sealed as Emperor Ziwei means he is now an immortal and no longer human.

So, it's somewhat unreasonable for him to still hold the Human Clan's treasure, the Kongdong Seal, isn't it?

To take the Kongdong Seal from Emperor Ziwei's hand, it seems the only way is to approach it from the aspect of identity?

Stealing it seems impossible.

Who could possibly steal a treasure like the Kongdong Seal from a cultivation level at the Great Luo Peak of level 90?

Of course, this is not an easy task and requires careful consideration and planning.

However, knowing this, it must be done.

Tip: Task "Return the Jade Intact to Zhao" has been activated. Task requirement: Successfully return the Kongdong Seal to the hands of the Human Clan. Upon success, rewards include 10 billion Experience Points, 2 Divine Level Treasure Chests.

Just as Jiang Liu was contemplating how to seize the Kongdong Seal from Emperor Ziwei, suddenly, the sound of a system alert rang in his mind.

Jiang Liu's eyes widened upon hearing the alert.

How much!?

A reward of 10 billion Experience Points!?

Furthermore, directly rewarding two Divine Level Treasure Chests!?

This, counts as a double Divine Level task, right?

This was the first time he received a task with a reward of two Divine Level Treasure Chests.

Moreover, 10 billion Experience Points, that's a bit exaggerated!

However, upon careful thought, taking such a supreme treasure as the Kongdong Seal from Emperor Ziwei does justify a reward of 10 billion Experience Points, doesn't it?

In any case, triggering a proactive task is not a bad thing.

But just as Jiang Liu was still secretly contemplating the task of returning the Jade Intact to Zhao, suddenly, with no warning, a series of notification sounds rang in his head.

Tip: Task "Clearing of the Heavenly Path" completed, rewards include 8.8 billion Experience Points, 1 Divine Level Treasure Chest, 2 Epic Level Treasure Chests.

Tip: Your "Heavenly Retribution" state has been lifted.

Tip: Level up by 10, current level 80.

Tip: Level up by 1, current level 81.

Tip: Level up by 1, current level 82.

(PS: Jiang Liu was bitten by a mosquito, which was initially quite ordinary, except the mosquito had just bitten a vampire before... New book "Vampires Must Be Graceful," folks, feel free to check it out? If interested, consider adding it to your favorites, giving a recommendation? Muah, managing both books at once, giving my best to keep this Journey to the West book stable with three updates a day, really feeling my own efforts…)
