The Demon-Slaying Grandmaster

Chapter 295 Demanding Weapons
Li Jingxiao suddenly whistled, unleashing a sonic attack that once again disturbed Sha Wujing's peace of mind.

In particular, he was playing the tune of "Three Variations on Plum Blossom".

However, unlike the flute version, the whistling also incorporates techniques used in the "Blue Sea Tide" melody to disturb people's minds.

Seizing the opportunity, Li Jingxiao, after a few moves, used a soft palm technique to strike the staff in Sha Wujing's hand.

An extremely powerful force struck Sha Wujing across the mountain, sending him flying into the Flowing Sand River.

This time, Sha Wujing could no longer contain his anger and started cursing.

Then, standing in the Liusha River, he shouted to Li Jingxiao on the bank, "All my skills are in the water."

"If you dare, come into the water and fight me."

Li Jingxiao rolled his eyes after hearing this.

He picks up fights purely to win and gain experience.

Therefore, Li Jingxiao had no interest in competing with his opponent's strengths using his own weaknesses.

The two stood on the shore and in the water, each trying to provoke the other.

In the end, Li Jingxiao was shameless enough to not only criticize Sha Wujing for his poor martial arts skills but also for his ugly appearance.

Most importantly, he has lived for millions of years in vain, yet he doesn't dare to fight a young man like himself who has only lived for twenty-six years on the shore.

Enraged, Sha Wujing roared and rushed ashore.

This time, Lao Sha was furious and used all his skills to fight Li Jingxiao.

This immediately increased the pressure on Li Jingxiao.

After more than twenty moves, to Li Jingxiao's surprise, the black gold and silver spear in his hand was bent by Sha Wujing's blow.

He could only retreat rapidly, looking at the long spear that had been with him for eight or nine years.

The angle of the gun barrel changed from 180 degrees to 150 degrees, and I immediately felt heartache and emotion.

Fortunately, it was added to the inventory, and the little character quickly repaired the Silver Spear at the game's blacksmith shop.

But Li Jingxiao also realized that it was time to retire this 729-pound spear.

In order to avoid encountering battle maniacs like Sun Wukong or Erlang Shen in the future, whose fighting power would be greatly reduced if their weapons were broken.

There is even a possibility that someone might take the opportunity to injure or kill you.

Sha Wujing did not take the opportunity to continue his attack.

Upon seeing the spear in Li Jingxiao's hand, it first disappeared.

When it reappeared in his hands, it had been restored to its original state, and he was secretly surprised.

Li Jingxiao smiled and shook his head, then put the spear back into his inventory.

When Sha Wujing took out the towering white jade pillar, his heart skipped a beat.

Li Jingxiao would never use the "Ten Thousand Swords Unleashed" technique in front of Sha Wujing.

It wasn't just a concern that Sha Wujing would lose his mind and go crazy after seeing ten thousand swords unleashed simultaneously.

If he unleashes his full potential, then Li Jingxiao himself will be the one to suffer.

Secondly, she was worried that Sha Wujing would guess her true purpose in challenging him to a duel.

She secretly learned flying sword techniques while watching him being pierced by ten thousand swords every seven days.

So he fought with Sha Wujing several times, using Taoist magic and spear techniques, but not sword techniques like "Ten Thousand Swords Fired Simultaneously".

When the Sky-Supporting White Jade Pillar was taken out, just looking at the golden white jade staff, one could see the streams of precious light flowing around it.

Sha Wujing knew that this weapon must be even more extraordinary than the previous spear.

Li Jingxiao brandished the white jade staff in his hand a few times, but it still felt slightly too heavy.

But it would definitely be fine for fighting against Sha Wujing.

When the two clashed again, Sha Wujing immediately felt that the force of the white jade staff was much greater than that of the spear he had used before.

The two had already exchanged more than fifty blows, and now they were enduring the domineering force of the white jade staff.

After only twenty or so rounds, Sha Wujing felt his arms ache and his whole body was exhausted.

They had no choice but to admit defeat and retreat to the side.

He made an excuse that he had been starving for five or six days and had been playing for so long that he was too weak to continue.

A notification popped into Li Jingxiao's mind that he had received +10.

He couldn't help but smile broadly.

Putting away the white jade pillar, this time he took out two sheep and more than a dozen thick flatbreads.

These flatbreads were made when the troops entered Goryeo back then.

And when they captured Longshan Warehouse, and when they invaded Japan.

They secretly collected enough provisions from the logistics rations to feed over 100,000 people for several months.

Moreover, his inventory contained 9 fat sheep that he had collected during the attack on the Tatar tribes.

Therefore, Li Jingxiao didn't care at all how much Sha Wujing ate.

But seeing Sha Wujing eat two sheep and more than twenty plates of flatbread the size of a thumb still surprised me with his appetite.

Li Jingxiao himself only ate a leg of lamb and a flatbread and already felt a bit full.

But considering that Sha Wujing only eats one meal a week, while I eat three meals a day, my appetite seems normal.

After saying goodbye to Sha Wujing, Li Jingxiao couldn't help but wonder if he should get a new spear on his way back.

The black gold and silver spear is indeed impressive, but it is ultimately just a treasure of the 'Lake Dragon Palace' in a low-level cultivation world.

Compared to the treasures of the Four Seas Dragon Palace in the Journey to the West world, it is definitely several levels inferior.

Don't underestimate the seemingly insignificant staff in Sha Wujing's hand; it's actually made from the wood of the Moon Palace's cassia tree.

The story of Wu Gang chopping down the cassia tree refers to that cassia tree.

Sun Wukong's golden cudgel is undoubtedly the most famous, but among the three brothers' weapons, Zhu Bajie's rake is the most precious.

As Li Jingxiao flew, a thought suddenly struck him.

Xiniu Hezhou is located on the west coast of the sea. The White Dragon is the third prince of Ao Run, the Dragon King of the West Sea. Since the White Dragon ate his own precious horse...

That kid refuses to pay, so it's only right that he asks his father for compensation.

Moreover, the eldest prince of the West Sea Dragon Palace, Moang, is quite skilled in martial arts, so he might have another source of experience.

Thinking of this, Li Jingxiao chuckled, glanced at the sky and realized it was getting late, so he decided to go home to cultivate and spend time with his wife.

The next morning, as usual, he practiced martial arts with Baihuaxiu before riding a cloud towards the West Sea.

However, the Western Sea is too vast, and Li Jingxiao wouldn't be foolish enough to search for it himself.

After flying over the sea for a short while, they saw a sea patrol yaksha leading a group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals on patrol in the sea.

It descended from the clouds and hovered above the Yaksha.

The yaksha's heart skipped a beat when he saw this.

Could the secret passage be a sign of trouble?
Without Li Jingxiao having to speak, he surfaced and bowed respectfully before asking.

"This humble sea patrol yaksha has met the real person."

"You've come to my Western Sea, Master? Is there something important you need?"

Li Jingxiao feigned displeasure and asked, "Is that little white dragon from Snake Coil Mountain and Eagle Sorrow Stream your crown prince from the Western Sea?"

Upon hearing this, Yaksha thought to himself, "This is bad."

But seeing that Li Jingxiao could fly through the clouds and was wearing a purple Taoist robe with the Eight Trigrams, one could see that he was skilled in the art of flying through the clouds.

He had a purple-gold gourd hanging from his waist and a gleaming sword on his back.

He looks like a powerful Taoist priest.

They dared not deceive Li Jingxiao.

Seeing him nod, Li Jingxiao said in a accusatory tone, "This humble Taoist was traveling around the country a few days ago."

When they passed by Snake Coil Mountain and Eagle Sorrow Stream, the little white dragon stole their divine horse.

I have confronted that little white dragon several times, and he has suffered several defeats. Each time he is defeated, he hides in Eagle's Sorrow Gorge.

If I hadn't seen that he was a true dragon, given my temperament, I would have already skinned him alive and taken his life.

After making several inquiries, it was learned that he was related to the Western Sea.

Since he is indeed the crown prince of the West Sea Dragon King, and his son denies it, I have no choice but to come to the Dragon King for an explanation.” The Yaksha believed him after hearing this.

The reason why Xiaobailong was demoted and imprisoned in Yingchoujian was that he set fire to the pearl in the palace.

That pearl was a treasure bestowed upon the Jade Emperor.

The Dragon King of the West Sea did not want his entire family to be punished, or even accused of disrespect, and to be taken to Heaven by the Heavenly Court to be punished.

He simply went to the Heavenly Court to accuse his third son of disobedience.

They planned to sacrifice one person to save the whole family.

Just then, Guanyin Bodhisattva happened to pass by and heard the little white dragon's plea, so she pleaded with the Jade Emperor for mercy.

He was demoted to Yingchoujian in Shepanshan.

That's why Yaksha believed that the White Dragon had stolen the Taoist's divine horse.

After all, the West Sea had essentially given up on this Third Prince.

If there's no food, of course you have to find it yourself.

Having suddenly gone from being the third prince to a prisoner, it's normal for him to be a bit irritable.

He hurriedly took Li Jingxiao to the West Sea Dragon Palace.

Upon reaching the palace gates, Yaksha apologized to Li Jingxiao.

Li Jingxiao understood perfectly and waited for him to inform the Dragon King of the West Sea.

The yaksha hurriedly went to the palace and reported to the Dragon King.

The old Dragon King was furious and cursed under his breath, "You wretched creature!" but there was nothing he could do.

The only question that could be asked by the Yaksha was, "Does that Taoist priest truly possess any skills?"

Yaksha nodded hurriedly: "Dragon Lord, please forgive me. This humble general observed that the immortal can ride the clouds and mist, and his body is surrounded by precious energy."

His eyes also carried an air of authority, clearly indicating that he had long held a position of power.

Moreover, on the way the young general brought him to the Dragon Palace, the Taoist first used the "Water Dividing Technique" and then the "Water Avoidance Technique".

These are all authentic methods of water control, and must be from people of high social standing.

The real man himself said that he had defeated the Third Prince several times, forcing the Prince to hide in the mountain stream and dare not come out.

He is indeed a capable person.

Ao Run knew his third son's abilities.

While not invincible in the Western Sea, he is certainly a formidable opponent among the many dragon princes.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have developed such an arrogant and spoiled temperament.

However, compared to the eldest prince Moang, Xiaobailong's martial arts skills are indeed not that impressive.

But Ao Run still said "Oh no!" in a panic, and could only tidy up his clothes.

He ordered someone to quickly recall the eldest prince, Moang, who had gone out to visit friends, while he himself led a large group of subordinates out of the Dragon Palace.

Upon seeing Li Jingxiao, he was indeed as Yaksha had described—a truly virtuous cultivator with an extraordinary appearance.

Especially the sword on his back, which exuded a faint aura of menace.

It looks extraordinary.

He bowed respectfully from afar.

"I was unaware of your arrival and failed to greet you properly. Please forgive me."

Li Jingxiao isn't Sun Wukong; he can't act like a rogue.

Moreover, the West Sea Dragon Palace still had a powerful crown prince, which made Li Jingxiao somewhat wary.

Fortunately, he had spent a long time in contact with the Dragon King of Dongting Lake in the world of Dream of the Red Chamber, and knew many of the rules of the Dragon Palace.

Therefore, during his meetings and conversations with the Dragon King of the West Sea, he always showed himself to be a person who was 'well-mannered, knowledgeable of etiquette, and familiar with the rules of the Dragon Palace'.

This made the Dragon King of the West Sea think to himself that this person must have powerful connections and a strong backer.

Otherwise, how would one understand these rules?
They dared not neglect him more than ever.

Upon entering the Dragon Palace, it was indeed more luxurious than the Dongting Dragon King's palace in the Dream of the Red Chamber, and the aquatic soldiers on the throne were more majestic than those from the lakes.

As for strength, in Li Jingxiao's eyes, it was really nothing special.

After exchanging pleasantries, Li Jingxiao was secretly delighted to learn that the Crown Prince was not at home.

The old Dragon King, being quite shrewd, ordered his men to bring out a box of gold and silver jewels.

It was said to be an apology to Li Jingxiao.

Then he ordered someone to bring out a magnificent dragon horse.

Longma, Longma, is a dragon that resembles a horse.

Dragons are lewd by nature, and have many illegitimate children and mixed-race offspring.

The white dragon transformed into a dragon horse and carried Tang Sanzang to the Western Paradise, where they completed their mission.

The first thing I did was jump into the 'Dragon Transformation Pool'.

In other words, on his journey to the West, he truly went from being a real dragon to a dragon-horse.

However, Li Jingxiao's purpose in coming here was not to ask for a mount.

Moreover, he looked down on Ryoma, not only because he wasn't as fast as him, but also because he might cause trouble.

The mounts of the great gods and immortals in Journey to the West.

Many mounts are like the wicked servants of the powerful in the mortal world, committing numerous evil deeds and causing a lot of trouble for their masters.

What's the use of a mount that's neither powerful nor reliable?

So Li Jingxiao didn't waste any time and said with a smile, "When I was at home, I often heard that the Dragon Palace was wealthy."

The Monkey King, who once wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace, wielded the golden cudgel, a treasure of the East Sea.

I've heard that it's the treasure that King Yu used to measure the depths of the four seas.

I don't have the skills of the Great Sage, but I did become acquainted with the Third Prince through a fight.

"I have come to ask the Dragon Lord to grant me a suitable weapon, out of respect for the Third Prince."

Ao Run was furious. So you deliberately caused trouble for my third son.

But then I thought about it again, although Sun Wukong's Ruyi Jingu Bang is widely known.

But if it comes from the East Sea and is known to be the possession of King Yu the Great, then there are very few of them.

This young Taoist priest might very well have connections with celestial beings.

But if we agree today, will anyone with a little skill dare to go to the Dragon Palace of the Four Seas to demand weapons and treasures in the future?
Since Li Jingxiao dared to come, he must have known he needed to show some skill to get what he wanted.

Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so easy for Sun Wukong to take away the Golden Cudgel.

A flash of lightning appeared in his eyes, and soon dark clouds gathered above the Dragon Palace, accompanied by thunder and lightning.

The churning waters caused the sea to surge and churn, and even the Dragon Palace could feel the waves crashing.

Moreover, the oppressive force of the thunderbolts startled the Dragon King, Dragon Queen, Dragon Prince, and Dragon Princess, causing their expressions to change drastically.

Li Jingxiao then used the "Cloud-Traveling and Rain-Making" technique taught by the Dragon King of Dongting Lake in the world of Dream of the Red Chamber.

Three meters in front of me, small patches of dark clouds were also gathering.

Not only was there lightning and thunder, but also a constant downpour of raindrops.

But the raindrops did not fall on the jade floor of the Dragon Palace.

Instead, after landing, it actively turned into water vapor and floated back into the small patch of dark clouds.

Rainfall is continuously cyclical.

Ao Run could tell at a glance that the young Taoist priest in front of him was not only skilled in using thunder magic.

He also practiced the orthodox art of "manipulating clouds and spreading rain".

In addition, he is skilled in "Riding the Clouds and Mist", "Water Dividing Techniques", and "Water Avoidance Techniques", so he must have been born into a prestigious family.

If we drive the Taoist priest away, but then anger his elders, things will get complicated.

Seeing that he had achieved his goal, Li Jingxiao withdrew the spell and retrieved the item from his inventory.

He took out his black gold and silver spear and casually tossed it to the Yaksha.
