Chapter 767 Journey to the West: The Legend of the Exorcist

【The copy has been imported.】

The moon shines brightly, its shadows float in the vast sky.

The spiritual school swallows up Mount Hua, and its long flow flows through hundreds of rivers.

Shallow waves roll, and towering waves surge wildly.

There are no fishing lights at the shore, but egrets are sleeping on the sandbank.

Vast and boundless like the sea, stretching as far as the eye can see.

[Dungeon Blueprint: Journey to the West: The Legend of the Monkey King]

[Dungeon entry: Faction confrontation - Players from different factions are allowed to kill each other without being marked as red, and the drop rate of bloody treasure chests is increased by one level; in principle, players from the same faction are not allowed to kill each other, and no bloody treasure chests will be dropped when killed, and this behavior will affect the position of the respective factions.

The Five Elements' generating and restraining relationships—omitted.

Gods and Buddhas appear in the world, demons and monsters run rampant—omitted.

Having traversed eight hundred li, few have traveled here since ancient times. The Tongtian River, as a section of the main stream of the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, has a wide valley in its upper section with scattered, braided water flow, many sandbars and marshy grasslands, forming a plateau pasture. In its lower section, the mountains are steep, the river channel narrows, the water flow is rapid, and the embedded meandering landform is prominent. It is an important transportation route in the vicinity. However, it has now been completely occupied by a being called "King of Inspiration", which has had a detrimental impact on the surrounding living environment.

The Tongtian River is a "Five Elements Water" environment. Players need to rely on their own abilities to gain the ability to breathe underwater in order to move around inside the Tongtian River. Alternatively, they can try to find some special opportunities in the surrounding "Chen Family Village", which is suffering from oppression.

Chenjiazhuang – Chenjiazhuang is located in Yuanhui County of Chechi Kingdom, adjacent to the east bank of the Tongtian River, and far from the Women's Kingdom on the west bank. It is a key node on the journey of the pilgrimage team.

The village is considered a safe zone to a certain extent, providing players with a temporary foothold. However, it's important to note that depending on how the story progresses and the choices players make, Chen Family Village may no longer be safe.

[Dungeon Difficulty: B+~?]

[Main Quest: "The Desperate Measures of the Chen Family" - Team Quest. Because Chen Family Village is primarily agricultural, after King Linggan occupied the Tongtian River, he forced the village to periodically offer young boys and girls in exchange for "favorable weather." Recently, for unknown reasons, King Linggan has suddenly become even more ruthless, not only frequently sending his minions ashore to plunder, but also forcing the wealthiest family in Chen Family Village to offer their direct descendants. Driven to desperation, the wealthy Chen Family has decided to spend lavishly to hire a group of talented individuals known as "Players." You now need to travel to Chen Family Village, meet your employer, and receive the subsequent quest.]

Basic reward – This will be officially triggered after contacting the Chen family's wealthy household.

Your additional skill 'Holy Grail Mission' has been triggered.

【Holy Grail Mission: Appreciation of Five Elements Treasures】—Team Mission. Collect treasures related to the five elements: Gold Spirit Orb, Release Sword, Wood Spirit Orb, Lightning Halberd, Water Spirit Orb, Mystic Ice Axe, Fire Spirit Orb, Fiery Cloud Blade, Earth Spirit Orb, and Vajra Mantra (0/10). For each treasure successfully collected, you and your team will gain 10% resistance to the corresponding elemental attribute. This effect is immediate and can be stacked, with a maximum resistance of 100%.

"The Fisherman Never Goes Homeless" - Team Mission. For each aquatic monster belonging to the Inspiration King's faction killed, you and your team gain a 1% bonus to your final damage against aquatic monsters, stacking up to 100%.

【The achievement list is now open, you can check it at any time. 】

When Cheng Tian finished reading all the plot descriptions and dungeon entries, and then heard the sound of rolling waves crashing against each other, even someone as strong-willed as Cheng Tian couldn't help but sigh.

As the saying goes, what you fear most is what happens. Cheng Tian, ​​who least wanted to encounter the Tongtian River scenario, was forcibly assigned to it. If there was any advantage to it, it was that Cheng Tian's preparation and approach to the Tongtian River scenario were far more extensive than those for the other scenarios.

However, after just a sigh, Cheng Tian immediately regained his composure, and his face became resolute.

Indeed, Cheng Tian didn't want to participate in water battles from the bottom of his heart, but since he had to face the future of water battles inevitably, he could only do his best.

Cheng Tian glanced again at the various items in his inventory and collection, and gave himself a pep talk.

As the scene before Cheng Tian switched from silvery white to a wide river that seemed to stretch endlessly into the distance, with murky water and waves surging one after another.

If you didn't know beforehand that this was a river, anyone who came here might mistake it for the sea, since it is just so vast.

There's a saying that there are no waves without wind, but the current situation is completely contrary to this common sense. There was almost no wind on the shore, so the river should have been calm as well. But the huge waves made it almost impossible to cross the river by boat.

In other words, if waves rise even without wind, then there must be something stirring up trouble at the bottom of the river, muddying the waters and creating waves.

I wonder if hardcore anglers would like this kind of environment.

Having adjusted his mindset, Cheng Tian looked around and his gaze quickly settled on a stone tablet that had been exposed to the elements for many years.

"Come on, everyone!"

Cheng Tian waved to his friends, and the group, who had just entered the instance and were awestruck by the vastness of the Tongtian River, came running at the sound of his voice and quickly surrounded the stone tablet.

The words "Tongtian River" are written in regular script on it. In the lower right corner of the Tongtian River, two lines of smaller characters are engraved, which are the same as the words written on the copy entry: "Passing through eight hundred li, few travelers have ever been here since ancient times."

Cheng Tian's third eye flashed slightly, and a very obvious spiritual energy fluctuation spread out from his body.

As a person with special mental strength, Cheng Tian's scanning ability is actually quite abnormal among those of the same level. However, when his mental strength touched the surface of the river, he immediately felt a sense of being "swallowed" and even felt a slight stinging pain in his brain.

It wasn't the feeling of being clearly blocked by some kind of barrier like in the Golden Fortress, but rather that the entire Tongtian River itself was like a bottomless abyss designed to block spiritual exploration.

It was just the surface of the river, yet it seemed to divide the land and the riverbed into two separate worlds. Cheng Tian estimated that to use the scanner normally, he would most likely need to wade in and physically go inside.

Of course, they don't need to go into the water right now. Instead, they need to go to the nearby Chen Family Village to meet their employer, the wealthy Chen family, in order to trigger the subsequent missions.

If nothing unexpected happens, it should be about defeating the King of Inspiration.

Surprisingly, the wealthy Chen family in the game "Journey to the West: The Legend of the Monkey King" is quite tough, daring to hire players to confront the Great King of Inspiration head-on, which is quite different from their state in "Journey to the West: The Sequel".

Just then, a long, drawn-out bell chime echoed in the air and reached the ears of Cheng Tian and the others.
