The Demon-Slaying Grandmaster

Chapter 328 Taiyi Five Smoke Silk

Li Jingxiao was currently focused on the character's level, having just finished three matches with Xingxian.

They gained a total of 24 experience points, which means that among these six tree spirits...

Xingxian is the one with the highest cultivation level.

Now, hearing her say that she has been enlightened for three thousand years, Li Jingxiao thought to himself, "No wonder the other five tree demons only have 4."

She, however, has 8.

After the two laughed and chatted for a while, Xingxian began to get restless again.

Not only because Li Jingxiao was young and handsome, but also because his pure yang energy was indeed too attractive to female demons.

But Li Jingxiao also benefited from it.

When Yin and Yang intersected, the Yin energy also refined the pure Yang energy within Li Jingxiao's body by a trace.

Moreover, the extreme of Yin is Yang.

The amount of pure yang energy in his body actually increased slightly.

In the long run, it will not only not do any harm, but will actually bring many benefits.

Therefore, Li Jingxiao couldn't wait to play more matches with Xingxian.

They gained another 16 experience points before finally going to sleep.

For the next few days, Li Jingxiao lived a very comfortable life.

Aside from cultivating, he spends most of his time with Xingxian.

Fortunately, the two complement each other, which is equivalent to a form of dual cultivation to some extent.

Moreover, it was a dual cultivation that benefited both parties; otherwise, Li Jingxiao would have been drained dry by Xingxian long ago.

Xingxian also clearly felt that she had gained a lot, and became even more obsessed with Li Jingxiao.

She wished she could stay in his arms all day long.

Li Jingxiao originally planned to first cultivate the "Divine Firmament Five Thunder Subduing Demon Orthodox Method," which was at the Great Completion stage, to the Grandmaster level.

But after being with Xingxian, every time yin and yang intersect...

As the amount of pure yang energy in the body increases, the proficiency of the Pure Yang Everlasting Spring Technique will automatically increase.

So much so that the Pure Yang Everlasting Spring Skill, which was previously only at the Grandmaster level (300/40), was now considered a high-level skill.

In just five days, it rose to the Grandmaster level (1.15/40).
It's twice as fast as simple cultivation.

There's also a considerable amount of experience to be gained.

On this day, Li Jingxiao successfully leveled up to level 130 (5/1 million).

With attribute points added to Comprehension, the base value of Comprehension has officially surpassed 100 points.

体质260、根骨261+28、悟性100+14
The following morning, Li Jingxiao was meditating and practicing.

But his mind was on the game.

As expected, the map remained unchanged after leveling up to 130.

But the map size is much larger.

Moreover, large expanses of ocean appeared in the south of the map.

The boss guarding the gate is none other than the Great Sage Dragon King who overturns the sea.

In the past, Li Jingxiao would have found dealing with the demons in the sea troublesome.

But the Tongtian River had just been burned down a few days ago, so Li Jingxiao had cleared out all the level 130 monsters in the game.

After encountering the Flood Dragon King, before this BOSS could even jump out of the sea...

Li Jingxiao hovered in the air, holding the +8 Five Fires Seven Birds Fan (Immortal Grade) in his hand.

The power of the fire spell was instantly increased by 140%.

He opened his mouth and spat out a sky full of Samadhi True Fire.

It set the entire sea surface and seabed ablaze.

As soon as the Flood Dragon King burst out of the sea, Li Jingxiao activated his Fire Escape technique.

While continuing to exhale Samadhi Fire, it transformed into a part of the flames.

So that even the Demon King Jiao couldn't find him.

In less than ten minutes, he burned the Flood Dragon Demon King to death without sustaining any injuries.

It exploded with a loud "bang".

Li Jingxiao glanced over and saw that besides red and blue potions, game coins, and immortal stones...

They also found a celestial sword and a treasure with five-colored rays of light.

Li Jingxiao flashed away, putting away the immortal sword and the treasure of five-colored radiant light.

The first thing I saw was the Legend of Sword and Fairy.

As expected, it really is the Nanming Li Huo Sword.

The rosy glow was the 'Taiyi Five Smoke Silk'.

Li Jingxiao was overjoyed.

Nanming Li Huo Sword: Sharpness +120, Demon Subduing +120, Evil Extermination +120.

Fire spell power +100%.

It deals an additional 100% damage to demons.

Li Jingxiao, however, preferred the Taiyi Five Smoke Silk.

This thing has extremely strong defensive capabilities, and it also has the attribute of 'absolute defense'.

Moreover, it released a defensive circle that resembled colorful clouds and smoke.

It can resist all kinds of evil magic and strange treasures, and block wind, thunder, water and fire.

It even unfolded into a protective array for the mountain.

It can also enhance the Five Elements Escape Technique and increase flight speed.

Li Jingxiao's thoughts returned to reality. With a thought, a five-colored radiance appeared around him, protecting his entire body.

The size of the scepter quickly enveloped the entire Muxian Temple.

The apricot fairy and the other five tree spirits, as well as some lesser tree spirits and flower spirits, were shocked and terrified.

Fortunately, Li Jingxiao quickly put away the five-colored glow.

An invisible aura of self-defense forms around the body.

Before Xingxian could speak, Li Jingxiao's figure flashed.

Using the Wood Release technique, he moved freely among the countless thorns, trees, and flowers in the Thorn Ridge.

It is indeed noticeable that the Wood Release technique is at least 30% faster than before.

After having had his fill of fun, Li Jingxiao could travel hundreds of miles in the blink of an eye with just a thought.

He appeared before Xingxian.

Without even thinking, I upgraded this treasure to +9.
I didn't expect it to be upgraded to +5.

The attribute "transforms into a long dragon of smoke and clouds to bind or capture enemies" has also appeared.

When enhanced to +9, this item can 'conceal its aura and hide its form'.

Aside from not being able to actively attack enemies.

This treasure combines defense, ambush, capture, and enhanced escape techniques; it's practically omnipotent.

As for the Nanming Li Huo Sword, Li Jingxiao wasn't in a hurry to upgrade it to +9.

It truly possesses the attributes of the Heavenly Strike Sword and the Thunder Flame Sword, though it cannot compare to the Southern Bright Fire Sword.

However, if the two swords are combined, the attack power will double.

Even the +5 Sky-Supporting White Jade Pillar cannot match the attack power of these two immortal swords.

Therefore, Li Jingxiao was unwilling to change his sword-shaped weapon.

Therefore, there is no need to upgrade it to +8 or +9.

But it was only upgraded to +7.

Sharpness +142, Demon Subduing +142, Evil Extermination +142.

Fire spell power +135%.

It deals an additional 135% damage to demons.

In the future, when using Samadhi True Fire, you will be holding a +8 Five Fires Seven Birds Fan (Immortal Grade).

Carrying the +7 Nanming Fire Sword, the power of fire magic is directly enhanced by 275%.

It also deals an additional 135% damage to demons.

If Red Boy knew about these two treasures, he would be incredibly envious.

In high spirits, Li Jingxiao embraced Xingxian and released a five-colored glow.

Concealing their forms, they sing, recite, act, and fight together in a grand opera.

One day, two days, three days later, Xingxian was so exhausted that she almost fainted.

He held Li Jingxiao tightly and fell into a deep sleep.

Li Jingxiao also took advantage of the increased drop rate during the map exploration.

I cleared all the maps below level 130.

The drop rate is indeed extremely high.

The Taiyi Splitting Light Sword drops from level 110 maps. The Heavenly Dragon Slash drops from level 120 maps.
In the level 70 map, a pair of Sun and Moon Golden Wheels dropped.

Without a second thought, Li Jingxiao decided to hand over the pair of golden sun and moon wheels to Baihuaxiu.

Li Jingxiao simply stayed in Thorn Ridge and enjoyed another half month of carefree life.

This day coincided with Xingxian, who had recently learned the score of "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer".

During the zither and flute duet, they suddenly heard someone calling them from the sky.

Looking up, I saw the two guys, Golden Horn and Silver Horn.

Dressed as a child, with a banana leaf fan in his hand, he descended from the sky.

Upon landing at the Muxian Temple, he greeted her with a smile and a respectful bow.

He said, "Master, my brother and I are acting on the orders of Laozi."

While descending to earth to find you, I command you to lead the old ox that secretly descended to earth back to the Tushita Palace.

Li Jingxiao was secretly pleased after hearing this.

Previously, he sent the Golden Armor Warrior to the Tushita Palace to tell the two brothers to come down to the mortal realm and have a drink with him when they had time.

Now, as expected, they have been attracted here, and they have also received a task personally assigned by Laozi.

As for Jinjiao and Yinjiao's words, they were heard by Xingxian and her maids Dangui, Lamei, Guishu, and Meishu.

Like a thunderclap.

Coming to her senses, she looked at Li Jingxiao with intense longing.

This is the Dao Ancestor, the patriarch of any cultivator.

If it weren't for Golden Horn and Silver Horn, they might have jumped into Li Jingxiao's arms.

Have a good, intimate time with him.

Li Jingxiao did not resist the task assigned by Laozi at all.

As long as the benefits are big enough, there's nothing wrong with being someone's lackey.

Li Jingxiao immediately relaxed.

Moreover, if one were to personally capture the Green Ox Demon and bring him back to the Tushita Palace...

From now on, if I go to the Heavenly Court to fight the Old Bull, I'll have another source of experience.

Old Niu's martial arts and supernatural powers were in no way inferior to Sun Wukong's.

They must have a lot of experience.

From now on, I'll spend my free time on Mount Putuo, visiting places like the Tushita Palace, the Thorn Ridge, and the West Sea Dragon Palace.

You'll definitely have plenty of experience, and you don't need to worry about not having anyone to drink or fight with.

With that thought in mind, Li Jingxiao put away the Heavenly Demon Harp.

Looking at Xingxian, who was holding a level 50 Phoenix Flute, he showed a helpless expression.

Phoenix Flute: Spell power +35%, spell cost -35%
Although this flute has no special attributes or skills.

But the mere 35% increase in spell power and 35% decrease in spell cost was enough to make Xingxian ecstatic.

Xingxian quickly waved her hand and curtsied to Li Jingxiao.

"My lord, please do not worry about me. The matters entrusted to me by the Dao Ancestor are naturally more important. I will wait for you to return at the Wooden Immortal Nunnery."

Upon hearing this, Jinjiao and Yinjiao felt even more favorably toward Xingxian.

Li Jingxiao nodded, then asked Jinjiao and Yinjiao in an annoyed tone, "Did Laozi give any other instructions?"

Jinjiao hurriedly said, "Our master instructed that we must not lose face for him. As for the rest, you can handle it yourself, Master."

Li Jingxiao nodded in relief and took the banana leaf fan from Jin Jiao's hand.

After giving Xingxian a few instructions, he wanted to fly to Jindu Cave on Jindu Mountain.

Unexpectedly, Golden Horn and Silver Horn quickly grabbed him.

With a fawning expression, he said, "Master, it's not easy for my brother and me to come down to the mortal realm."

"Please, have mercy and take my brother with you to Jindu Mountain, okay?"

Li Jingxiao shook his head after hearing this, saying that these two guys weren't very capable.

If it weren't for the few treasures Laozi possessed, he wouldn't have lasted more than thirty moves against Sun Wukong.

Taking them along is like carrying two burdens.

Moreover, the Green Ox Demon definitely knows Golden Horn and Silver Horn.

The appearance of these two might mislead the Green Ox Demon into thinking that Laozi no longer wanted to make things difficult for the pilgrimage team.

And thus, the ordeal at Jindu Mountain was ended ahead of schedule.

However, although Li Jingxiao refused to take them to Jindu Mountain, it didn't stop him from leaving this guy in Thorn Ridge.

He asked Xingxian to represent him and treat the two of them to good wine and meat.

Upon hearing this arrangement, Jinjiao and Yinjiao were overjoyed.

Xingxian was naturally very happy to help her husband with this.

The five spirits—pine, maple, cypress, juniper, and bamboo—treated Gold Horn and Silver Horn as their ancestors.

In Li Jingxiao's eyes, Jinjiao and Yinjiao were just minor characters who could be dealt with in twenty or thirty moves.

But in front of the five tree demons, even casually reciting a few lines of Taoist magic would be an extraordinary opportunity.

After making arrangements for Jinjiao and Yinjiao, Li Jingxiao appeared hundreds of miles away in a flash.

Upon arriving at Jindu Mountain, Li Jingxiao did not go directly to find Sun Wukong.

Instead, it landed on a mountaintop and observed from hundreds of miles away using its telescopic vision.

It turns out that at this time, not only Li Jing and his son Nezha, but also the Fire God, the Water God, and all the gods of the Water and Fire Departments had descended to earth to help Sun Wukong.

They were repeatedly robbed of their weapons and magical treasures by the Green Ox Demon using the Diamond Bracelet.

Pigsy, Tang Monk, Sandy, and the White Dragon Horse were all captured and imprisoned in the Golden Gourd Cave.

At this point, not only were the gods of Heaven helpless, but Sun Wukong was also at a loss.

Moreover, he had previously gone to the Jade Emperor to ask for his help in investigating the origins and source of the Green Ox Demon and the bracelet in his hand.

Unfortunately, like the Buddha, the Jade Emperor dared not reveal Laozi's secrets.

Therefore, they only said they didn't know the identity of the Green Ox Demon.

Li Jingxiao thought for a moment. Lao Jun told him that he could not lose face, but he knew the ending himself.

To put it bluntly, it's nothing more than a power struggle between Taoism and Buddhism.

The Buddha's solution to this problem was quite simple: he simply paid money to find out.

Those eighteen golden pills were actually the raw materials for refining the Nine-Turn Golden Pill.

Laozi gained face after receiving the benefits, and thus stopped making things difficult for the pilgrimage team.

As for Li Jing and his son, they have always had a deep relationship with Buddhism. Otherwise, why would they invite the father and son instead of anyone else?

Moreover, just by looking at the name 'Jindu Mountain and Jindu Cave', you can tell that Laozi had already given a hint.

If you want to pass through Jindu Mountain, leave behind some money to pay for your journey.
-
Li Jingxiao didn't rush to see Sun Wukong; instead, he used the Earth Movement Technique directly.

They went straight into the Golden Gourd Cave and saw the Green Ox Demon lying on the stone bed.

He stood on tiptoe, peeled a green tangerine in his hand, and popped the tangerine into his mouth with a look of enjoyment.

Upon seeing this, Li Jingxiao couldn't help but smile.

He secretly thought that this old ox actually really liked eating oranges.

After thinking for a moment, they continued moving into the mountainside behind the green ox.

He shouted "Stop!" at the old ox.

Li Jingxiao flashed out of the mountain wall, and the Immortal Binding Rope in his hand instantly transformed into a chain.

The hands and feet of the green ox were firmly bound.

Then he took out a banana leaf fan and fanned the old ox a few times.

Sure enough, the Green Ox Demon was most afraid of the Banana Leaf Fan.

After being slapped a few times, he felt weak all over and collapsed onto the stone bed.

Li Jingxiao chuckled and stepped forward to pin the old ox down.

He gripped the old ox's arm tightly with both hands, forcibly pulled the Vajra Bracelet from his arm, and put it into his inventory.

Now, Old Niu has completely lost his support.

A pleading glint flashed in her eyes, fearing that Li Jingxiao was sent by Laozi to kill her and silence her.

Fortunately, Li Jingxiao did not receive such a mission.

He kicked the old ox off the stone bed.

He sat down and picked up an orange from the stone table to eat.

Seeing his actions, the old ox felt relieved.

He asked in a fawning tone, "Are you my master's new disciple, Master?"

Li Jingxiao was taken aback, then shook his head with some regret.

"I am here on behalf of your master to tell you, because I have received his favor. Do not forget your identity and mission."

Otherwise, to think you're invincible just because you have this bracelet is wishful thinking.
