Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me-Chapter 165 - 164: Power Slapping Face, Everyone’s flabbergasted

Chapter 165: Chapter 164: Power Slapping Face, Everyone’s flabbergasted

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong was fine, but Jiang Chen suddenly stopped, looking at the Gray Wolf Divine Spirit in horror and uncertainty.

It was no false claim that there was an ancient fierce beast suppressed by King Yu at the bottom of the Yellow River. But how did the Gray Wolf get such information?

King Yu was born at the end of prehistoric times and rose to power at the beginning of ancient times. Generally, the day King Yu ascended the throne is seen as the end of the prehistoric era and the beginning of the ancient era.

And from the ancient times to now, after millions of years through the Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties, countless happenings have been buried in history and were forgotten.

Among them was the fact that an ancient fierce beast was suppressed at the bottom of the Yellow River.

At the end of prehistoric times and the beginning of the ancient era, there was a great battle waged by unsurpassed figures. The afterwaves of their divine powers broke the barriers between Heaven and Earth, causing the Heavenly River’s water to pour into the human world, causing a disastrous flood that affected countless lives.

At that time, a god-like figure, King Yu, emerged. He cut mountains and divided waters, carving out nine great rivers on the Prehistoric World, leading the enormous flood into the sea, thus resolving the flooding crisis.

During King Yu’s water control period, ancient fierce beasts rampaged, hindering his flood control efforts.

Although King Yu had a kind heart, he knew it was not the time for kindness. So he summoned his greatest divine power to suppress these ancient fierce beasts.

King Yu was a pacifist, who never killed, hence with those ancient fierce beasts, he simply trapped them, not kill. He placed them under suppression in the rivers.

During the flood, the Yellow River, as one of the main rivers in the Prehistoric World, was filled with numerous ancient fierce beasts. This means the number of ancient fierce beasts trapped by King Yu at the bottom of the Yellow River was definitely not small.

That’s the story. This incident might have been well-known at the beginning of ancient times, but now, millions of years later, how many people still remember it?

Without Jiang Xuan casually mentioning it to Jiang Chen during a remembrance of the past, even he would have been unaware of it.

Considering the level of secrecy involved, how did the Gray Wolf come to know it? Could it be that he was also one of the ancient fierce beasts and was an enemy of King Yu’s? But considering his strength, it didn’t seem like it.

The ancient fierce beasts, even the weakest of them, had to at least be at the level of the Great Luo Golden Immortal. The Gray Wolf was nowhere close. With his mere Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, he couldn’t even be considered fodder.

...

Upon seeing Jiang Chen standing still and silent, the Gray Wolf Divine Spirit immediately realized that he also knew about it. With that realization, the Gray Wolf Divine Spirit suddenly laughed.

It was good that he knew. He saved himself from further explanation and also made himself more aware of the impact the ancient fierce beasts breaking free would have on the Nanbuzhan Continent.

Narrowing his eyes, Jiang Chen stared at the Gray Wolf Divine Spirit, and asked with a subtly dramatic expression, "Are you threatening me?"

"So what if I am?" the Gray Wolf Divine Spirit retorted confidently. Once the fierce beasts of ancient times broke free, the Yellow River would undoubtedly overflow, causing floods that would ravage both shores, affecting countless lives.

If Jiang Chen had the slightest concern for the people of the world, he wouldn’t dare to make a move against him.

This time, he was secure!

...

However, there was one thing that the Gray Wolf was wrong about. In the face of his threat, Jiang Chen was not only unscathed but eager to kill.

"Looking for death!"

As murderous intent surged in his heart, Jiang Chen reached out and took out the Sun Divine Rod, emitting thousands of rays of light, not giving the Gray Wolf Divine Spirit a chance to react, and encompassed him all at once.

That was the Innate Sun Divine Light, incredibly hot, the purest Yang, absolutely dominant, capable of incinerating everything.

Under its coverage, the Gray Wolf Divine Spirit was as if aflame, his body burning with intense white flames, progressively fading away.

Within the Innate Sun Divine Light, the Gray Wolf Divine Spirit began to scream, and a sound of grievance came.

"Ahhhhh..."

"Innate Spiritual Treasure?"

"You tricked me! You have an Innate Spiritual Treasure, why didn’t you use it earlier?"

"You son of %$@!&..." (Obscene language)

The Gray Wolf felt quite aggrieved. If he had known earlier that his opponent had an Innate Spiritual Treasure, he wouldn’t have appeared before them at all.

Besides, even though Jiang Chen had an Innate Spiritual Treasure, why hadn’t he used it during the previous battle? Why wait until now, just when he had begun to see a chance for escape?

He did it on purpose, didn’t he?!

He was intentionally messing with him, wasn’t he?!

He dangled hope in front of him, then mercilessly crushed it, turning it into utter despair.

What a master at messing with people’s hearts!

With his last breath of resistance, the Gray Wolf’s Divine Spirit gradually faded away, burnt into ashes by the Innate Sun Divine Light. However, his words filled with resentment were left behind.

"I, the Gray Wolf, bear this grudge, make the most of your remaining time. When I emerge from the retreat, it will be your death."

From the Gray Wolf’s words, it seemed that the currently visible Divine Spirit was merely one of its many avatars; its real self was hidden in the dark.

However, thinking back to the Gray Wolf’s comments earlier, Jiang Chen understood. At first meeting, the Gray Wolf had said that once he ate them, his injuries would be cured.

But the Gray Wolf before his eyes had no visible injuries at all. The one he was referring to must be its real body. The real body was probably injured critically and had to let its avatar traverse the human world.

Heh, injuries severe enough to let an avatar roam in the world, that injury must be extraordinarily grave. Even if not dead, it was barely hanging on.

In that condition, how much of the strength could remain?

Threat?

Heh, heh,

The last thing he, Jiang Chen, was afraid of were threats.

...

Smiling faintly, Jiang Chen said, "What kind of man was King Yu? If he was brave enough to seal the ancient fierce creatures at the bottom of the Yellow River, then he can ensure that seals he set would not falter."

"Just relying on this Grey Wolf, thinking he could break King Yu’s seal to release the ancient fierce beast? It’s laughable."

Jiang Chen held the Grey Wolf’s words in contempt, even if he didn’t stop the Gray Wolf and allowed it to crash into the Yellow River. With his power, it would be impossible to cause a stir in the Yellow River.

Wouldn’t King Yu know? If the fierce beasts he had sealed escaped, it would be a disaster for the world.

So, when sealing ancient fierce beasts, King Yu considered all sorts of outcomes and had different measures prepared.

Not to mention how difficult it would be to break the seal, even if it were broken and the ancient fierce creatures that had been suppressed for millions of years escaped, much could they do?

The Yellow River is secure.

...

However, as if to slap Jiang Chen’s face, not long after he finished speaking, the Yellow River, which had stretched for thousands of miles, suddenly burst its banks. Muddy water surged out, sweeping towards the banks on both sides.

Boom!

The roaring floodwaters created a deafening sound.

Turning his head to look at this scene, Jiang Chen was stunned.

Everything was fine,

So why did the Yellow River suddenly burst its banks?
