The Demon-Slaying Grandmaster

Chapter 319 The Most Miserable Fairy
Li Jingxiao didn't really want to exorcise demons.

Now, the lion spirit himself says that he is not only the mount of Manjushri Bodhisattva.

They also followed the Buddha's decree and came to this Wuji Kingdom to avenge the Bodhisattva.

Li Jingxiao naturally wouldn't do anything to this lion demon.

But his goal was to learn the transformation techniques of the lion spirit.

Moreover, this lion spirit should never have done anything wrong, absolutely never, but instead transformed into a Taoist priest and committed evil deeds.

Therefore, any reason to cause him trouble is readily available.

The lion spirit secretly regretted it after hearing this.

When I received the order and came to Wuji Kingdom.

He did indeed harbor thoughts of slandering Taoism in order to curry favor with Buddha and Bodhisattvas.

I don't want to be caught red-handed by the Taoist priest. If he keeps pressing on it, even the Bodhisattva will have a hard time standing up for me.

All he could do was apologize and beg for forgiveness while saying he was willing to make amends for his past sins.

Li Jingxiao smiled, pretended to get up, and circled the king, who was actually the lion demon, twice.

Then, with a surprised tone, he said, "I must say, your transformation skills are truly impressive."

My eyes can see absolutely nothing suspicious.

The lion couldn't help but feel secretly pleased.

Then a thought struck me.

He realized that the young Taoist priest had taken a liking to the transformation techniques he had learned and mastered.

Thinking of this, the lion spirit breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he did have considerable experience with the art of transformation, in this world where strength reigns supreme...

Whoever wins is the only winner; everything else is just a minor detail.

Didn't you see that this lion demon, who was a fake king, descended to the mortal realm with the Buddha's decree?

They also dared not act like the Green Lion Spirit of Lion Camel Ridge, who acted recklessly and ate people whenever he wanted.

When he's in a bad mood, he'd even swallow the heavenly soldiers and generals of the South Heavenly Gate.

So, in the fake king's mind, it could save his own life.

Or, in return, Li Jingxiao would no longer concern himself with the affairs of Wuji Kingdom, thus fulfilling the Buddha's decree.

Teaching Li Jingxiao the art of transformation is not out of the question.

Whether or not the lion spirit can learn it is none of its concern.

So this guy readily shared his experience and insights in the art of transformation.

He imparted all his knowledge to Li Jingxiao.

Li Jingxiao, of course, was directing his game character to listen and copy at the same time in the Scripture Pavilion on the sect map.

After the explanation is finished, the copied notes and experiences will be compiled into a booklet.

When placed on the bookshelf of the library, it spontaneously formed a secret manual.

As soon as Li Jingxiao clicked, a wealth of knowledge entered his mind.

Li Jingxiao quickly gained new insights into the art of transformation.

After a while, he opened his eyes and nodded to the lion spirit with satisfaction.

They not only untied him, but also brought out monkey spirit wine.

He poured him a glass of wine and said with a smile, "Since I've received your favor..."

This humble Taoist will naturally no longer concern himself with the affairs of your sacred mountain.

Please, fellow Daoist, drink this cup to the brim; let all misunderstandings between us be wiped clean.

After regaining his freedom, the lion spirit's eyes flashed with a hint of hesitation.

He secretly lamented that he had been ambushed and suffered a truly humiliating defeat.

Now that we've regained our freedom, should we fight this Taoist priest?
It's good to vent my anger?

But as soon as this thought crossed his mind, he remembered Li Jingxiao's chain-like treasure.

He sighed inwardly, thinking, "No matter how strong my martial arts are, or how powerful my Taoist magic is."

Actually, nothing is more powerful than magic weapons.

Many of the famous magical treasures in the Three Realms are existences that defy reason.

Even if a little kid is countless times less capable than you, if they have a powerful magic weapon in their hand...

I can still beat you so badly you'll flee in defeat.

Thinking of this, the lion spirit hurriedly picked up his wine cup with a smile.

After clinking glasses with Li Jingxiao, he downed his drink in one gulp without saying a word.

He even took the initiative to talk to Lee Kyung-hyo about how, despite being a king, he had actually been living a very stifled life over the past three years.

As Li Jingxiao listened, he was genuinely moved by what the lion spirit said.

Since the king of Wuji Kingdom had gained the favor of the Buddha, he wanted to invite him to Mount Ling to cultivate an Arhat's golden body.

If I were the lion spirit, I wouldn't dare to transform into the king's form.

Go and seduce the Queen.

To avoid having another enemy in the future.

Thinking about it this way, Li Jingxiao began to understand the lion spirit.

But the speed at which they poured the wine was by no means slow.

Once the lion demon was drunk, a notification popped up in his mind: +8 experience points.

Li Jingxiao smiled, and with a flash, he passed through the wall.

They soon returned to the temple where Tang Sanzang and his companions had stayed.

As soon as he entered the house, Tang Sanzang, Sun Wukong, Sha Wujing, and the king were all waiting for him to return.

As for Old Pig, he was already fast asleep, completely drunk.

As soon as Sun Wukong saw him, he hurriedly asked, "Brother, have you found out any useful information?"

The others also turned to look at Li Jingxiao.

Li Jingxiao smiled and nodded: "That king is indeed a fake, and he is not a Quanzhen Taoist at all."

But it was a lion spirit, and its strength wasn't much either.

After saying that, he looked at Sun Wukong.

He then looked at Sha Wujing and, amidst their puzzled gazes, said, "With the Great Sage's abilities, he could probably defeat that monster in just a dozen or twenty moves."

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong burst into laughter.

Sha Wujing knew that Li Jingxiao had looked at him earlier because he was probably thinking that the lion demon was about the same strength as him.

Fortunately, to save face in the end, he used his senior brother as a comparison.

He couldn't help but show a grateful look when he looked at Li Jingxiao.

Tang Sanzang and the King of Nazhen were relieved.

But the monkey, being very curious, asked after laughing, "Brother, do you know why that monster wanted to harm King Wuji?"
And why transform into the appearance of a king?

Li Jingxiao originally did not want to reveal this secret.

After all, it involves the face of Manjushri Bodhisattva.

But if the Bodhisattva is to blame the monkey for asking such a question, then blame the monkey first.

After organizing his thoughts, he began to recount how the King of Wuji had ordered his men to bind the Bodhisattva and sink him in the moat for three days.

King Wujin turned pale upon hearing this.

I felt so regretful that I wanted to slap myself a few times.

But at this moment, his biggest worry was still his son and the queen.

He knelt down before Li Jingxiao and asked with a sorrowful tone, "Master, how are my son and wife?"

Seeing how worried he was about his wife and children, Li Jingxiao felt a greater liking for the king.

He said with a smile, "Your Majesty, rest assured, that lion demon..."

As Li Jingxiao spoke of this, he suddenly remembered that the lion spirit dared not cause trouble in the harem.

It's not out of fear of the Bodhisattva or King Ujin settling scores later.

Rather, it was because the Bodhisattva was worried that this guy might cause trouble before he went to Wuji Kingdom.

Let's just castrate this lion demon.

In the original story, Pigsy didn't believe it and even reached out to touch it.

Only then did they realize that the Bodhisattva was not lying.

Thinking of this, Li Jingxiao couldn't help but feel sorry for the lion demon. He sighed and said, "Your Majesty has suffered for three years; you truly deserve our sympathy."

What the king didn't know was that the lion demon had already been castrated by the Bodhisattva before he descended to earth.

If you really want to be calculative, he's not having an easy time either.

Moreover, the days of suffering to come will be far longer than the three years of torment the king has endured.

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong and Sha Wujing couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Even Tang Sanzang covered his face with his sleeve and chuckled.

Only the king breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

After a moment of silence, he sighed, and his hatred for the lion demon lessened by six or seven points.

If we really look into it, the root of the problem actually lies with the king himself.

If he hadn't ordered his guards to tie up the Bodhisattva with ropes and immerse him in the moat for three days, none of these subsequent events would have occurred.

However, people are selfish, and the true king was thinking to himself, "Why does the Bodhisattva have to test me when everything is fine?"

Otherwise, he would have already ascended Mount Ling and become a Buddha, or at the very least, an Arhat.

There wouldn't be so many problems now.

Thinking about it this way, I lost all respect for the Bodhisattva.

Seeing his expression, the others lost interest in joking.

Li Jingxiao also had no interest in staying in Wuji Kingdom any longer.

He looked at the monkey and said, "Great Sage, now that we have investigated the details of that lion demon,..."

My younger brother has been away for several days, so I'm going home now to save my wife from worrying.

Since Sun Wukong knew that the lion demon was no match for him at all.

Naturally, they wouldn't force Li Jingxiao to stay.

Together with Sha Wujing, they personally saw him off at the door.

Watching Li Jingxiao leap into the air and disappear into the night sky, she chatted with Sha Wujing with a smile about the lion demon being castrated by the Bodhisattva.

Wujin Kingdom was indeed not far from Baoxiang Kingdom. Li Jingxiao returned to Boyue Cave in just a few minutes.

The princess wasn't actually asleep either.

Lately, whenever Li Jingxiao is not at home, she usually goes into seclusion to cultivate in order to pass the time.

With his natural talent, he could feel the progress he made during each period of seclusion.

Everyone likes to do what they are good at, so Baihua Xiu has always been very enthusiastic about cultivation.

The maid reported that the master had returned.

Baihua Xiu quickly finished her practice and walked briskly to Li Jingxiao's side, asking with a smile, "Husband, have you had dinner yet?"

Li Jingxiao looked at Baihuaxiu's expectant gaze, and even though he had already eaten dinner with Sun Wukong and the others, he still shook his head.

Baihua Xiu indeed showed a happy expression.

He hurriedly instructed the maid to prepare wine and dishes.

He then pulled Li Jingxiao to the living room, sat down next to him, and chattered on about his cultivation.

Li Jingxiao showed no sign of impatience.

He held the princess close, listened attentively, and occasionally explained things to her.

After having a late-night snack, the two naturally did some things they liked.

The next day, Li Jingxiao continued to stay at home and cultivate diligently.

I glanced at the skills panel.

Sword Control Techniques - Immortal Cultivation Edition: Grandmaster (34.3/40)
The Great Completion of the Divine Firmament Five Thunder Subduing Demon Orthodox Method - (1/20)
Mastery of the Pure Yang Everlasting Spring Technique (32554/5)
Li Jingxiao pondered for a moment before deciding to first practice the Everlasting Spring Technique.

After upgrading, your physical constitution and physique will be strengthened, and your cultivation speed will also increase.

Moreover, of the four Kirin Fruits he traded with the King of Growth, he only ate three.

Li Jingxiao meditated and calmed down.

He then took out the fourth one and ate it.

An hour later, the Changchun Gong was successfully cultivated to the level of mastery (42854/5).

For the next week, Li Jingxiao focused all his attention on practicing the Everlasting Spring Technique.

He spent 20 hours a day, even putting aside his efforts to gain experience and level up.

I finally upgraded the Pure Yang Everlasting Spring Skill to the Great Perfection (6/20).
The pure yang energy within the dantian dissipated automatically once again.

As the body absorbed a large amount of the substance, Li Jingxiao could clearly feel his body's strength, defense, and lifespan increasing.

After a night, Li Jingxiao's internal energy was restored.

Constitution +50 points, Root Bone +50 points.

三维属性、体质200、根骨201+28、悟性91+14。

At this point, his proficiency increased dramatically from 37.6 to 47.6 per hour of training.

Li Jingxiao's mood immediately improved.

However, with his physical constitution and innate bone attributes increasing dramatically, he began to ponder how to increase his comprehension.

When he left the quiet room, not only was Baihua Xiu waiting for him.

The sisters Ao Huiji and Ao Xin noticed that he hadn't visited the West Sea Dragon Palace for quite some time.

Let's just run together to Wave Moon Cave to find him.

The two sisters were relieved to learn from Baihuaxiu that their husbands were in seclusion.

They stayed obediently in the cave and waited.

Baihua Xiu actually quite liked Ao Huiji and Ao Xin, since having two more people to talk to made things less boring.

Moreover, the three of them had served Li Jingxiao together when they were at Huaguo Mountain.

Having had this experience, the barriers between people will be greatly reduced.

Li Jingxiao had just leveled up, and even a very small portion of the pure yang energy within his body remained in his physical form.

For Ao Huiji, Ao Xin, and Bai Huaxiu, it was as attractive as the smell of ginseng fruit and peaches.

In the future, Li Jingxiao might become like Tang Sanzang, a marriage prospect pursued and begged by female demons.

Li Jingxiao had just been promoted, and the three women were very attractive to him.

One night fish and dragon dance.

Ao Huiji and Ao Xin simply decided to stay in Boyue Cave and not go back.

Li Jingxiao was also happy to have two women with him.

In this way, you can get at least 300,000 to 400,000 experience points from Ao Huiji and Ao Xin every day.

Moreover, Ao Xin's experience points increased from 4 to 8.

This also required Li Jingxiao to spend a lot of effort on improving the strength of Baihuaxiu and Ao Huiji.

The two women, seeing Li Jingxiao, preferred to teach Ao Xin martial arts.

He also preferred to spar with Ao Xin, and while he admired her, he naturally worked hard to cultivate himself.

Meanwhile, the Journey to the West team had already left Wuji Kingdom and was heading towards the direction where Red Boy was in Huoyun Cave.

However, because Pigsy had been with Li Jingxiao beforehand, he had met Red Boy.

So he often mentioned to Sun Wukong the experience of defeating the black dragon in Yunjianchuan together.

He also reminded Sun Wukong and Sha Wujing more than once how powerful Red Boy's Samadhi True Fire was.

Old Pig was even glad that Li Jingxiao hadn't passed on the Samadhi Divine Wind or the "Borrowing Wind" technique to Red Boy.

Otherwise, the wind would fuel the fire, and the fire would amplify the wind's power.

Then Red Boy's Samadhi True Fire will be even more powerful.

This frightened Tang Sanzang, who was filled with worry throughout the journey.

We were about to reach the territory of 'Drill Mountain'.

Tang Sanzang finally couldn't help but ask Sun Wukong, "Wukong, since Master Li has a relationship with the king of the Fire Cloud Cave in the Dry Pine Stream..."

Why don't you go to the trouble of going and inviting Master Li over?
That way, we can avoid misunderstandings and a fight might break out.

The monkey waved his hand with a smile: "Master, you don't know, but I, Old Sun, am actually the seventh uncle of Red Boy."

When I finally mastered my skills and returned to Flower Fruit Mountain...

I was fortunate enough to make six extremely capable friends, and we became sworn brothers.

I'm the seventh in line; the first is none other than Red Boy's father, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, the Bull Demon King.
