The Demon-Slaying Grandmaster

Chapter 393 Good Treasure

The nine-headed lion has actually been descending to earth for many years.

The fact that this old monster could roam freely in Xiniu Hezhou for so long suggests that it was related to the eastward spread of Buddhism.

The idea of ​​spreading Buddhism eastward from Mount Ling is not something that only started in recent years.

Jin Chanzi was actually reincarnated during the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Unfortunately, in nine consecutive lifetimes, the pilgrims were eaten by Sha Wujing.

Even his own master, Taiyi Tianzun, might have already made some kind of deal with Buddha.

That's why he descended to the mortal realm and became a monster in the Nine-Bend Cave of Bamboo Mountain.

Therefore, the Nine-Headed Lion never even considered making things difficult for Tang Sanzang.

He still harbored a sliver of hope that his godson, the Yellow Lion Spirit, could get him through this ordeal.

Perhaps in the future, I can continue to enjoy this winding cave for a few more years or even a decade or more.

However, Li Jingxiao's direct visit with Ao Xin this time made the old monster understand.

There's no way to avoid this hurdle.

Since he would eventually have to fight Sun Wukong and his two brothers, the Nine-Headed Lion couldn't help but think that he should learn from Laozi's Green Ox Demon.

Firstly, we cannot embarrass Taiyi Tianzun.

Secondly, even though they are both mounts, they are not treated well in the Heavenly Court.

But after Qingniu defeated Sun Wukong, Li Jing and Nezha, as well as the Fire and Water Star Lords and the Thunder God, at Jindu Mountain, he was covered in dust and dirt.

I heard that when I returned to the Tushita Palace, my treatment was much better than before.

However, it is said that Qingniu's ability to drink every day is related to Li Jingxiao, Laozi's personal disciple, who thinks highly of Qingniu.

Thinking about it this way, the nine-headed lion couldn't help but feel a pang of regret.

If Li Jingxiao became a disciple of his master, Taiyi Tianzun, then he too could catch the eye of his master, just like Qingniu.

Fortunately, upon further reflection, although Li Jingxiao was not his own master, he was still a disciple of Laozi, one of the Three Pure Ones.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he is the number one second-generation Taoist. If one can gain his favor...

Then his status in the 'Eastern Azure Emperor Taiyi Heavenly Venerable Palace' would rise several levels.

At least the lion servants and attendants who guard him will no longer dare to beat or scold him as they did in the past.

Thinking of this, the nine-headed lion hurriedly assured Li Jingxiao that he would never harm a hair on Tang Sanzang's head.

In order to gain Li Jingxiao's trust, he even said that he no longer needed to worry about his lifespan.

He usually focuses on his spiritual cultivation, so there's really no need for him to eat Tang Sanzang's flesh.

When the nine-headed lion uttered those words, he knew it was a statement of his stance.

But the six scruffy lions behind him couldn't help but show a hint of resentment in their eyes.

To put it bluntly, even if you ascend to heaven and become a god, not everyone can live forever.

You'll never have to worry about your lifespan.

Otherwise, the golden pills from the Tushita Palace, the peaches of immortality from the Queen Mother of the West, and the ginseng fruit from Zhenyuan Daxian would not be so popular.

After all, the proportion of people who can become immortals is very low.

But thousands or tens of thousands of years.

Even after hundreds of thousands of years, it's impossible for someone to become an immortal and then be free from the worry of lifespan.

Otherwise, the Heavenly Court would not just be overcrowded, but so overcrowded that it would be unable to accommodate all the immortals and gods.

Li Jingxiao only glanced at the six lions and knew that these six scraggly lions were after Tang Sanzang's flesh.

This won't do.

As the leader of the gods and Buddhas who protect Tang Sanzang, he can steadily earn more than two million experience points every day.

They also had to truly save Tang Sanzang's life.

The last time, Tang Sanzang's primordial yang energy was disrupted by the white-haired rat's maid, which was already a grave mistake.

Fortunately, Tang Sanzang himself dared not say it.

Even if the Buddha on Mount Ling knew about this, he would only grit his teeth and bear it. Otherwise, if he couldn't obtain the true scriptures even after ten lifetimes, there would be no need for an eleventh journey.

The Haotian Mirror suddenly appeared above Li Jingxiao's head, and a divine light shone on the six lions, and even on the nine-headed lions.

The seven lion demons were completely unprepared for Li Jingxiao's attack. When the divine light shone upon them, none of them were ready at all.

They were all frozen in place by the Haotian Mirror.

Ao Xin was taken aback for a moment.

She then realized what was happening and got up to draw the Demon-Slaying Sword and the Taiyi Dividing Light Sword, which Li Jingxiao had given her, which she was carrying on her left and right sides.

Fortunately, Li Jingxiao only wanted to warn the six monstrous lions.

He grabbed Ao Xin's shoulder and put his arm around the girl, sitting down steadily with her.

The nine-headed lion first showed surprise on its face, then an expression of anger.

No matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't break free from the Haotian Mirror's immobilization technique.

Upon seeing this, Li Jingxiao was secretly delighted.

The Haotian Mirror's 'rule' level immobilization technique is truly extraordinary.

Now it seems that unless they are truly big shots.

Those who possess great treasures or are otherwise completely restrained by the Haotian Mirror will be completely countered by it.

If even the nine-headed lions couldn't break free, then the six mixed-haired lions would have even less chance of escaping the divine light of the Haotian Mirror.

As for the other trusted lesser demons in the cave...

Before they could even make a move, they were bound tightly by the five-colored clouds and smoke that Li Jingxiao conjured from his Taiyi Five Smoke Garland.

Li Jingxiao waited a few minutes to confirm that the Nine-Headed Lion really couldn't escape the Haotian Mirror's immobilization technique before smiling and taking back the treasure.

Along with it, the colorful clouds and mist also spontaneously flew back.

In those few minutes, the nine-headed lion had actually come to a realization.

Li Jingxiao had no intention of killing.

The reason he did this was simply to warn himself and his six adopted grandsons.

Perhaps it was just a warning to the six lions—the mongoose lion, the snow lion, the elephant lion, the lynx lion, the white lion, and the suanni lion—to behave themselves.

While sighing inwardly, he felt an even greater admiration for Li Jingxiao.

He thought to himself that Laozi was indeed a highly regarded disciple. Not only was his cultivation high, but Laozi was also willing to pass on such a precious treasure to him.

If Li Jingxiao knew that this old monster had misunderstood, he would definitely have to have a serious talk with him.

Although Laozi passed on many immortal techniques to him, he only truly passed on the Banana Leaf Fan as a magical treasure.

Moreover, it was because of his extremely high control over fire-based magic that the banana leaf fan was passed on to him, as if to save trouble.

But ever since he obtained this treasure, he has had to stay by Laozi's side whenever Laozi refines pills.

Each time, it takes 49 days, which is spent in the alchemy room.

As a result, I spend at least half less time each year on cultivation and gaining experience.

Fortunately, the benefits gained were actually quite substantial.

Moreover, as long as Laozi preaches to him, his skill proficiency will skyrocket.

Back then, the proficiency gained from listening to the teachings of Lei Fa and Chunyang Changchun Gong for just three days was equivalent to that gained in a year and a half.

It can take years to gain that level of proficiency.

Therefore, in terms of cultivation, Li Jingxiao actually gained more benefits.

The only problem is that gaining experience points has suddenly become much slower.

After all, Laozi would refine four or five batches of Nine-Turn Golden Elixir every year.

That means half a year, or even eight months, are spent on alchemy.

Fortunately, Li Jingxiao came to terms with it and reached level 200 within 10 years.

There's not much difference between reaching level 200 within thirty years and actually doing so.
