At this mont, Jiang Liu was grinding mobs in the dungeon with Sun Wukong and others.
They didn’t know how many tis they had run the Great Thunder Monastery of the Western Heaven dungeon, and they were sick of it, but what could they do? They had to keep grinding.
For the sake of improving their strength, this monotony was tolerable.
As the saying goes, "to succeed, one must endure hardships."
If you want your ga level to be higher than others, you have to endure the grind; if you want your cultivation to be stronger than others, you also have to endure the monotony and hardship of training; if you want better grades than others, you must work harder too.
There is no such thing as peace in ti; if you want to live better than others, you must carry the load and move forward.
Jiang Liu, grinding the Great Thunder Monastery dungeon, soon stood before the Tathagata.
After a round of beating, the Tathagata’s health point soon dropped to the last sliver.
"Wait..." Jiang Liu shouted to everyone around.
With Jiang Liu’s shout, Sun Wukong and the Good Corpse, and others, naturally stopped quickly with tacit understanding.
Then, Jiang Liu took out the Bloodthirsty Stone.
Bloodthirsty Stone (Special Prop): Use on a Golden BOSS level monster, when the opponent’s health drops below 5%, there’s a certain probability of causing the opponent to go berserk, with all attributes greatly increased!
This was sothing that ca out of the legendary level treasure chest last ti, and for Jiang Liu, every ti the Tathagata was grinded down to that last sliver of health, it was worth it to use it.
A blood-red light fell on the Tathagata, and originally the Tathagata, whose body emitted a golden Buddhist Light, suddenly had eyes turned blood red.
At the sa ti, a frightening blood-red aura blossod from the Tathagata.
An evil, violent, and ominous aura, made one feel as if the Tathagata was suddenly possessed by a demon.
Hint: Target has gone berserk, all attributes increased by 800%.
As the Tathagata’s appearance changed, suddenly the system’s prompt sounded.
Hearing this prompt, Jiang Liu’s face couldn’t help but change.
The effect of the Bloodthirsty Stone could cause the target to go berserk with a certain probability, but how much of an increase? It was completely random, generally fluctuating between 100%-500%, and recently, Jiang Liu was quite familiar with it.
Unexpectedly, today it actually boosted to 800%.
As it berserked, the Tathagata, who originally only had a sliver of health left, had their health bar increased by a large segnt.
Looks like about a small half now.
An 800% increase in all attributes clearly included health as well.
Whoosh!
After the berserk effect finished, Sun Wukong, the strongest in solo power, raised the Jingu Bang in his hand and directly smashed it towards the Tathagata.
However, facing Sun Wukong’s attack, the Tathagata’s eyelids only slightly lifted.
Then raised a hand and smacked down on the Jingu Bang.
Sun Wukong’s figure was directly knocked flying backward.
At the sa ti, beside him, the Good Corpse also raised their horsetail whisk, sending a large blaze of flas towards the Tathagata.
But likewise, in the face of the Good Corpse’s spell attack, the Tathagata gently waved a hand.
In an instant, the large flas also turned into little sparks, scattering in all directions.
"Wow! So strong!"
The power that the Tathagata suddenly displayed made Sun Wukong remark with amazent.
"Everyone be careful, this Tathagata’s entire strength is nearly ten tis what it was before!" Following Sun Wukong’s amazent, Jiang Liu quickly shouted.
Whoosh!
It seed that picking a soft target to squeeze was known too, as after smashing the Good Corpse’s flas, the Tathagata quickly moved, arriving in front of Sha Wujing in the blink of an eye, waving a palm down towards Sha Wujing.
Vajra Mantra!
Amazed at the speed of the Tathagata, seemingly eight or nine tis faster than before, Jiang Liu also reacted quickly, casting the Vajra Mantra skill on Sha Wujing.
Sha Wujing was like being hit by a speeding train, spitting a mouthful of blood, flying straight backward.
At the sa ti, the health bar above his head plumted more than halfway.
The Vajra Mantra could exempt 80% of the damage, yet even so, 20% of the damage took down more than half of Sha Wujing’s health.
This made Jiang Liu secretly amazed in his heart.
If I had been a little slower just now and hadn’t cast the Vajra Mantra, Sha Wujing might have been instantly killed, right?
The BOSS level was originally at the Great Luo Golden Immortal level, and now, after gaining an 800% berserk boost, although lacking in law-type abilities, judging purely from various attributes, it surely had reached the Quasi-Saint level combat power?
滴滴滴!
However, just as Jiang Liu watched the Tathagata in front of him, feeling a heavy weight in his heart and preparing to cautiously engage alongside Sun Wukong and others to tackle this quasi-saint-level BOSS, suddenly, Jiang Liu heard the sound of a ssage coming through.
Hearing this ssage, Jiang Liu opened his friend list to check.
Although he was currently in a critical mont of clearing monsters, usually when friends sent him ssages, it was for sothing important, so he had to take a look.
When he opened the friend list, he saw Red Boy’s avatar jumping up and down.
Seeing Red Boy’s avatar bouncing, Jiang Liu imdiately opened the dialogue box, then a ssage surfaced in front of him.
"Sect Hierarch, Kunpeng, Master Wuchao, Ancestor Minghe, and Great Immortal Zhenyuan have all arrived, the lady is receiving them, wait, another one has arrived, Randeng Buddha..."
Seeing this ssage from Red Boy, Jiang Liu’s eyebrows furrowed slightly. Are all these quasi-saints gathering at the Ming Sect? This is not a good sign.
After all, even when the Ming Sect was founded, not many of these quasi-saints personally attended to offer their congratulations.
Now, they’ve all appeared at the Ming Sect simultaneously? Is it about his mysterious identity?
With the Green Duckweed Sword in hand, Jiang Liu wasn’t worried about Gaoyang’s safety.
However, facing all these quasi-saints, Gaoyang would inevitably have a hard ti dealing with them.
After all, these quasi-saints have lived for a very, very long ti. As the saying goes, "the older, the wiser."
"Master, it’s becoming hard to bear!" While Jiang Liu diverted part of his attention to Red Boy’s ssages, the battle on the other side was completely being overwheld.
Combat power comparable to a quasi-saint level isn’t sothing that Sun Wukong and the others could resist at the mont.
Seeing this, Jiang Liu restrained his mind, sent back a quick "got it" to Red Boy, imdiately closed the dialogue box, and then focused his gaze on Tathagata.
Even though his power level couldn’t match the real Tathagata in all respects, nor did he possess law-type abilities, he was still at a quasi-saint level.
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Liu’s face suddenly turned pale, and the health bar above his head dropped by about 10% instantly.
Jiang Liu pointed at Tathagata, and Tathagata appeared even more miserable, with only a small portion of health left, dropping in an instant.
All-or-Nothing (Great Perfection): Consus 10% of one’s maximum life value to deal 20% maximum life value damage to the target, cooldown ti 10 seconds.
This was Jiang Liu’s latest obtained attack skill. In a ga setting, this skill would undoubtedly be a single-target divine skill.
Consuming one’s own life value, coupled with the recovery abilities of the support profession, couldn’t be more suitable.
However, for Jiang Liu, who lives in reality, unless it was necessary, he did not want to use this skill.
Dropping 10% of his life value might not be significant, but with the decrease of health, one would get injured, and nobody likes to endure this kind of injury sensation.
Just like Jiang Liu, after using this move, he felt as if he was hamred in the chest with an iron hamr; his five viscera and six bowels were violently shaken, his health dropped, and he was injured.
The skill "All-or-Nothing" has a brief 10-second cooldown ti.
After waiting for a mont, Jiang Liu activated this skill again, causing his health to drop once more.
Naturally, this berserk Tathagata fell directly to the ground.
Hint: Gained 92 million Experience Points, obtained 8,500 taels of silver.
With the fall of the berserk Tathagata, the system notification sounded, and the Experience Points and silver notification made Jiang Liu’s face show a hint of delight.
Sure enough, the higher the degree of berserk, the harder it was to slay, and the greater the rewards.
Gaining nearly 100 million Experience Points and 8,500 taels of silver is quite a bounty.
This surpasses the rewards of clearing several instances without berserk mode.
Naturally, after using the All-or-Nothing skill twice, Jiang Liu himself was also injured.
Without any delay, Jiang Liu raised his hand, casting the Healing Holy Hand skill.
At the sa ti, the skill badge flashed, and the stored Healing Holy Hand skill was cast again.
Two holy objects of healing descended from the sky, with healing waves spreading out, rapidly restoring Jiang Liu’s injuries.
Even Sha Wujing, who had over half of his health decreased nearby, recovered almost completely.
The two descending healing holy objects offered undoubted combined healing effects.
The Journey to the West for Scriptures team erged from the Map of Mountains and Rivers.
"This Tathagata suddenly beca really formidable, making feel as if facing the real Tathagata..." Sun Wukong remarked with a sigh after they erged.
"Indeed, Master used the Vajra Mantra, and I almost couldn’t withstand it, nearly died!" Sha Wujing nodded in agreent, with a touch of emotion in his expression.
"No, there’s still quite a gap between this Tathagata and the real Tathagata," Jiang Liu corrected after hearing Sun Wukong and Sha Wujing’s words.
There’s quite a disparity in terms of strength, and coupled with law-type abilities, there’s indeed a significant gap between this berserk Tathagata and the real Tathagata.
"Alright, I need to go to the Ming Sect once more; you all wait for for a while..." Jiang Liu was preoccupied with the situation at the Ming Sect.
