Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me-Chapter 164 - 163: Astonishing Words by the Yellow River (3000)

Chapter 164: Chapter 163: Astonishing Words by the Yellow River (3000)

As for whether the guardian deity of the Xiongnu would intervene?

This was not a concern since immortals were not allowed to meddle in mortals’ wars.

Even if the Xiongnu were annihilated by the Great Han, the guardian deity of the Xiongnu could only protect the old, weak, and handicapped at most, but could not directly engage the soldiers of the Great Han.

This was an iron law established after the Investiture of the Gods.

Those who violated this command would face unpredictable consequences.

So, when the wolf demon arrived, it could attack Jiang Chen and Sun Wukong but dared not to make a move against Huo Qubing, who was observing the scene.

As a descendant of the School of War, how could Huo Qubing be ignorant of the mighty Qin crossbow formation? Because he knew its origin, he understood its value even more.

"Ah, this..." Taking the Qin crossbow from Jiang Chen’s hand, Huo Qubing was so excited that he was momentarily speechless.

Finally, a thousand words were condensed into one sentence: "Qubing will live up to your trust, elder. In this campaign, the Xiongnu will surely perish."

"Hmm!" Jiang Chen nodded and shifted his gaze to the Wolf Demon, who was in the midst of the battle.

Ha ha,

Guardian deity of the Xiongnu?

If the Xiongnu were destroyed under your protection, could you bear the colossal karma that would ensue?

Jiang Chen thought to himself with a wry smile, as he looked at the Wolf Demon.

Given Jiang Chen’s nature, it would be a good thing if he didn’t devour the Wolf Demon. Yet, the Wolf Demon was thinking of eating him, which was quite amusing.

During Jiang Chen’s conversation with Huo Qubing, the battle between Sun Wukong and the Gray Wolf intensified.

The spear in the Gray Wolf’s hand seemed to be made of ordinary materials, but due to being consecrated by the Xiongnu for generations, a thick layer of the power of incense surrounded it.

With the power of incense, the spear, though mundane, had the strength to compete with Sun Wukong’s Ruyi Jingu Bang.

Boom! Boom! Boom...

The two swung their weapons in mid-air, and the strong wind kicked up by their clash dispersed the clouds, filling the air with dust.

At one moment, Jiang Chen, who was watching the battle, seized an opportunity in the Gray Wolf’s defenses. He suddenly whipped out the Dragon-slaying Divine Sword and slashed it towards the wolf’s ribs.

"Ah ~ ~ "

With a flash of icy light, the Divine Sword swung past and a scream was heard. A slender wound suddenly burst open on the chest of the Gray Wolf, and splatters of blood flew out.

At the same time, an all-vanquishing force followed the wound on the wolf’s ribcage and surged into his body, seeking to destroy his magic, his life, his primordial spirit, his everything.

Suddenly attacked and having to suppress the destructive force within him, the Gray Wolf was inevitably distracted, and his power fell accordingly.

Seizing the opportunity, Sun Wukong utilized the divine abilities recorded in the Earthly Fiend 72 Transformations with all his might, channeling it through his Ruyi Jingu Bang and landing a heavy blow on the Wolf Demon.

Caught off guard, the Wolf Demon was hit by the Ruyi Jingu Bang, and staggered, falling from the sky and crashed onto the ground.

Before Sun Wukong and Jiang Chen could finish him off, the Wolf Demon crawled up from the ground, his face covered in blood, and howled, "Ah ~ ~ It hurts like hell!"

"I will destroy you!"

As his words fell, the demon energy on the Gray Wolf surged like a dense fog, spreading out in all directions.

Roar!

With a long howl, a giant Gray Wolf stood up from the fog, opened its wide bloodied mouth, and spat out a beam of white light at Jiang Chen and Sun Wukong.

Shh...

In an instant, endless cold spread, freezing everything around, turning it into ice and rapidly spreading towards the two.

"Wind-returning and Fire-reversing!"

Seeing the approaching cold, Jiang Chen’s eyes hardened, and in a thought, he used a Heavenly Gang divine ability: Wind-returning and Fire-reversing.

This divine ability could reverse the flow of wind and reduce the fire’s intensity. It could revert the development of things.

Wind-returning and Fire-reversing, this divine ability could bounce back any force!

Boom ~

With the activation of Wind-returning and Fire-reversing, the heavens and earth trembled, an inexplicable force descended, reversing everything.

The chill affected by this, shook slightly, even though some of its power was turned back, the majority of it still rushed towards Jiang Chen.

The gap between a Mysterious Immortal and a Taiyi Golden Immortal was too substantial. Jiang Chen’s divine ability could only have a minimal effect on it, and could not compete with it.

Hum...

Seeing the cold nearing, the Merit Gold Wheel emerged from Jiang Chen, one ring after another, forming six massive light wheels, which hung behind him.

In an instant, infinite golden light fell, engulfing Jiang Chen. The cold was swept away by the golden light and dissipated.

The protection of the Six Paths of Merit Gold Wheel made it impossible for an ordinary Taiyi Golden Immortal to harm him.

Elsewhere, Sun Wukong was hit by the cold, turning him into an ice sculpture.

Then, the ice sculpture shattered. However, instead of Sun Wukong’s body falling apart, it was chunks of shattered rocks.

Earthly Fiend 72 Transformations could change his appearance and substitute his position with other objects, escaping death.

"Hey, have a taste of my stick,"

Without making a sound, Sun Wukong appeared behind the Gray Wolf, swung his Ruyi Jingu Bang, and smashed it onto its huge head harshly.

"Thunderstrike!"

At the same time, Jiang Chen made his move. The Innate Sun energy and the Innate Moon energy within him surged at the same time.

Thunder was the pivot of Yin and Yang, the fundamental ruler of all things.

So, when Yin and Yang rotated, the thunder originated!

Jiang Chen’s body saw Yin and Yang energies rotating, generating Innate Thunder, which burst out from him and struck the Gray Wolf.

"Roar!"

The Gray Wolf roared, and the chill surged on his body, blocking Sun Wukong’s stick. At the same time, the Innate thunder stormed down, broke the icy chill, and struck solidly on him.

That thunderclap crashed down, and although it didn’t cause him any harm, it left him with prickling numbness throughout his body, causing his fur to bristle and inducing a faint paralysis.

It was at this point that Jiang Chen moved, letting the Dragon-slaying Divine Sword in his hand fly out. It carried a light that could annihilate everything and harshly stabbed into the left eye of the gray wolf.

"Ha, demon, take that!"

Seizing the opportunity, Sun Wukong slammed his rod on the hilt of the Dragon-slaying Divine Sword.

The Dragon-slaying Divine Sword, which originally had only half of its body buried in the gray wolf’s eye, was smashed by the golden hoop rod, directly piercing the gray wolf’s eye and burying itself deep in his skull.

Boom~~

In an instant, the Dragon-slaying Divine Sword exploded, unleashing an unmatched aura of destruction, which turned the gray wolf’s brain into mush.

Then that powerful force traveled down from the gray wolf’s brain, eradicating all his vital energies.

Even if the gray wolf was a Taiyi Golden Immortal, once all his life-energies were wiped out, this physical body could be counted as useless.

"Roar!"

With a miserable howl, the glow in the gray wolf’s eyes gradually faded, and finally, he collapsed powerlessly on the ground.

He was dead.

This body was dead.

But Jiang Chen did not let down his guard because of this, but became even more vigilant. The Dragon-slaying Sword only killed the gray wolf’s physical body, but his primordial spirit had not been affected.

With a thought, Jiang Chen continued to stimulate the Dragon-slaying Divine Sword in the gray wolf’s mind, triggering shocking waves of dragon-devouring qi with the intent to erase the gray wolf’s primordial spirit.

The destructive energy was indeed inhibiting to the primordial spirit. Even a Taiyi Golden Immortal, not to mention a Great Luo Golden Immortal, if tainted with destructive energy, they would either die or be severely injured.

Under the pressure of the dragon-devouring qi, the gray wolf’s primordial spirit, which originally intended to hide and attack in the dark, was forced to escape from his body.

Swish...

All of a sudden, a black aura rose from the gray wolf’s body and rushed into the distance.

"Dare to destroy my physical body, you are doomed. No one in the heavens and the earth can save you."

Even though he planned to escape, the gray wolf’s primordial spirit did not forget to issue threats.

However, would Jiang Chen and Sun Wukong, who were prepared, let him escape easily? They saw two people rushing forward, one left and one right, blocking the gray wolf’s primordial spirit.

Most of the power of the Demon Clan is concentrated in their physical bodies. So, when the gray wolf’s body was destroyed and most of his strength was lost, how could he stand up to the two of them?

Seeing that the left and right routes were cut off, the gray wolf attempted to escape backward.

But...

"Army, line up!"

"Yes!"

At Huo Qubing’s command, tens of thousands of soldiers complied in unison, vital energy rising from their bodies, converging high in the sky, turning into a bloody sea, surging wildly.

The rising blood qi, utterly resolute and flamingly vibrant, effectively blocked the grey wolf primordial spirit’s retreat!

Blocked on the left and right by Jiang Chen and Sun Wukong, and behind by Great Han soldiers, the gray wolf’s primordial spirit had no choice but to grit his teeth and rush forward.

And there stood the Great Han.

"Chase!"

Packing up the gray wolf’s body, Jiang Chen turned into a ray of light, chasing after the gray wolf’s primordial spirit.

The gray wolf’s body is a good catch; it is a Golden Taiyi Immortal after all. The flesh and blood are full of spiritual energy, and the skin, bones, and veins are all excellent materials for refining spiritual treasures.

A treasure like this must not be wasted.

...

Almost at the same time, Sun Wukong performed a somersault and also chased after the gray wolf’s primordial spirit.

Their speed was incredibly fast. One could cover 1.2 million li in a breath, and the other could travel 180,000 li in a single somersault. Even so, they were not able to catch up with the gray wolf’s primordial spirit and could only keep up closely.

This gray wolf does have a significant background!

This kind of escape technique is not something that ordinary forces could possess.

Thinking about this, Jiang Chen became even more curious about the origin of this gray wolf and resolved to kill him in order to use the Tao mirror to reflect his entire life.

So, with one side chasing and the other escaping, they gradually arrived at the Yellow River bank.

The momentum of the rolling waves, the turbulent river, and the gushing water continued to flow on the earth unceasingly, absolutely vibrant, like tens of millions of yellow phosphorous giant dragons, came roaring and flashing with lightning.

The muddy waves were magnificent, a boundless spectacle. This was the Yellow River, one of the two most important rivers in the Nanbuzhan Continent. Although it was not as expansive as the Four Seas or as vast as the Heavenly River, it had a transcendent momentum.

This was an aura created by the Yellow River nourishing countless living beings for millions of years.

A gift to the people, a destiny ordained by the heavens!

Although petite,

She had a heaviness that nothing could match.

...

......

When the three of them chased here, the grey wolf’s primordial spirit finally stopped running. He saw him stop, look at them, and say:

"Let me go quickly, or else, I will burn my primordial spirit and crash into the Yellow River, releasing the ancient fierce beasts suppressed by Dayu at the bottom of the Yellow River."

PS: Today I wrote seven thousand words again.

It’s the end of the month, seeking votes, seeking rewards.

A new month, a new start, I have decided to turn over a new leaf, and work hard on writing.

Check my performance next month.

Also, is a Chapter of three thousand words good, or is two thousand words per Chapter better?
