Chapter 1212: Chapter 1210: Peerless Murder Weapon—Witch-Slaying Sword
As the saying goes, when the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam is crooked.
The six saints each have different temperants, so their disciples also vary in character.
For example, Laozi prides himself on his non-action; whether it’s genuine or not, he has to maintain his persona.
Thus, as the Human Sect Master, even during ancient tis when the Human Clan was nearly devoured entirely by the Demon Clan, he did not intervene.
His chief disciple, Master Monk Xuandu, follows his example and keeps a low profile on the Primordial Continent, seemingly uninvolved in major events.
Similarly, the two saints of the Buddhist Sect, Jieyin always speaks grandly, while Zhunti is extrely calculating and unscrupulous.
Therefore, most people in the Buddhist Sect talk grandly, but fundantally, they are adept at scheming, even targeting their own people.
Lastly, for the Sect of Intercepting, Sect Master Tongtian’s character is much more straightforward compared to other saints, so its disciples value loyalty and righteousness.
Though the Sect of Intercepting was almost annihilated in the Investiture of the Gods war due to this, it has beco their style.
Wen Zhong was also a disciple of the Sect of Intercepting. Originally, he did not intend to accept Jiang Ziya’s invitation, but upon learning that Jiang Ziya aligns with the Sect of Intercepting and that these events seem to have been secretly orchestrated by the sect’s masterminds?
If that is the case, I certainly won’t stand idly by.
“If that’s the case, then in the matter of reestablishing the Human Emperor, if there’s anything old I can do, feel free to say so!” Understanding the situation thoroughly, Wen Zhong imdiately changed his tune, and although seemingly elderly, he pounded his chest with a resounding thud as he spoke.
“With Pri Minister Wen’s assistance, this matter is naturally much smoother!” Hearing Wen Zhong’s response, Jiang Ziya couldn’t help but smile with delight and praised him.
In the Investiture of the Gods war, since Shang Dynasty was the defeated party, naturally the casualties were severe.
And precisely because of these severe casualties, most of the immortal gods enshrined on the Fengshen Bang were figures from the Shang Dynasty’s ranks.
Within the Shang Dynasty’s ranks, Wen Zhong held very high prestige and was enshrined as the Nine Heavens Responsive Thunder God, Universal Transformation Heavenly Venerable, indicating his capability.
With his promise to help, Jiang Ziya believed that if he wanted to secretly ally with people from the Heavenly Court for certain matters, it would certainly be greatly effective.
After receiving Wen Zhong’s nod, Jiang Ziya didn’t say much more, and after a brief chat, he expressed he had important matters to attend to and quietly left Wen Zhong’s palace.
The Investiture of the Gods war had two camps, with Wen Zhong holding high prestige in the Shang Dynasty camp and Jiang Ziya having high prestige in the Great Zhou Dynasty camp.
Therefore, after uniting with Wen Zhong, Jiang Ziya acted in secret, contacting many immortal gods from the Great Zhou Dynasty and preparing in secret.
During the Investiture of the Gods war, Jiang Ziya coordinated the camp of King Wu’s campaign against Zhou. Although nearly two thousand years have passed, when Jiang Ziya speaks, it still holds weight.
Moreover, the Jade Emperor no longer wields the God-Beating Whip, and amid the turmoil, many individuals had already developed unusual ideas in their hearts.
Jiang Ziya’s appearance was tily, very much aligning with both sides.
“What should we do? The situation is becoming increasingly troubleso!”
In the Heavenly Court, during ordinary tis, the Jade Emperor would recline, eating fruit, watching immortal maidens dance, leading a very leisurely life. Yet today, he sat alone, eyebrows furrowed, his complexion filled with worry.
With the God-Beating Whip lost, morale was already shaken. This ti, humiliated by mortals, the fanfare didn’t even regain face, causing his prestige to plumt.
The Jade Emperor’s mood was very anxious, eager to promptly prevent such a situation from occurring.
Yet, despite his urgency, how exactly to reverse the current predicant? The Jade Emperor felt at a loss.
“It seems, I must find a way to reestablish my prestige, right?” After thinking to himself for a mont, the Jade Emperor understood that he needed a major event to help establish his prestige.
And what should this major event be? He needed to ponder thoroughly.
Leaving aside the Jade Emperor’s current troubles, in the mortal world, Jiang Liu and his group continued their Journey to the West, their days passing leisurely.
With the Red Boy obtaining the Taiyin True Fla, his strength rapidly increased, improving Jiang Liu’s mood.
One day, after the team easily completed a dungeon, the master and disciples walked out of it.
Jiang Liu instinctively picked up two dice and threw them on the ground. After rolling a few turns, two sixes appeared in front of Jiang Liu.
“12 points? My luck today is off the charts!” Seeing the numbers on the dice, Jiang Liu’s face bead with joy.
After completing the God-Beating Whip task that day, he was rewarded with two Divine Level Treasure Chests, which he hadn’t had a proper opportunity to open until now. It seed today was the day?
Opening the spatial pouch, Jiang Liu retrieved the two Divine Level Treasure Chests.
“Master!” Seeing Jiang Liu preparing to open the chests, Sun Wukong and the others gathered around, their eyes sparkling as they watched Jiang Liu.
Sun Wukong and the others’ appearance made Jiang Liu smile slightly, and he didn’t say anything more.
Jiang Liu himself was also very curious and first picked up one of the treasure chests and directly opened it.
Looking at the contents of the treasure chest, Jiang Liu’s expression was slightly stunned, a bit awkwardly taking the item out.
It was a dress that was entirely red and entirely feminine, obviously a piece of equipnt.
However, in the five-mber group journeying to the west for scriptures, they were all n, so it seed that no one could use it.
Nevertheless, it was after all an item from a Divine Level Treasure Chest, presumably a piece of Divine Level Equipnt, so Jiang Liu was still sowhat curious.
After taking out this red dress, Jiang Liu took a closer look, and as his gaze fell on it, the corresponding attribute information of the dress appeared before Jiang Liu’s eyes.
Lotus Fairy Skirt (Divine Level): No level requirent, Defense 5,000,000 * self level, never wears out.
Looking at the attribute information of the Lotus Fairy Skirt, Jiang Liu’s eyelid twitched slightly.
Such simple attribute information, no durability, no level requirent, and not even a special effect, just purely added defensive power.
However, 5,000,000 * self level defense seed quite decent.
If soone at level 80 wore it, wouldn’t it amount to 400 million defense?
“With Gaoyang having the Green Duckweed Sword for attack power, there’s no worry in that area. Giving her this Lotus Fairy Skirt seems suitable!” Thought Jiang Liu, considering Gaoyang’s level was almost reaching the level of a Daluo Golden Immortal, Jiang Liu felt that gifting this piece of Divine Level Quality clothing to Gaoyang was indeed fitting.
After putting away the Lotus Fairy Skirt, Jiang Liu promptly turned his gaze to another Divine Level Treasure Chest.
Although the defense of the Lotus Fairy Skirt was good, as a Divine Level Quality Equipnt, it still felt sowhat underwhelming.
Rolled a 12 on the dice, and this is the quality of what ca out? Jiang Liu felt slightly disappointed inside.
Imdiately, he opened the second Divine Level Treasure Chest.
“What’s this?” He took out the contents of the second Divine Level Treasure Chest, and Jiang Liu looked down. It appeared to be a sowhat ancient scroll.
Could it be a consumable item? As Jiang Liu’s eyes swept over, he realized his mistake. This scroll was not a functional item but a treasure map.
“Another treasure map?” Discovering it was a treasure map, Jiang Liu felt even more disappointed.
Jiang Liu still rembered he had obtained an Epic Level treasure map before, and unable to resist curiosity, followed the map’s directions to find it, only to discover Shen Gongbao’s whereabouts and receive rely a Whip of Thunder Lord from him.
Jiang Liu still rembered the attributes of the Whip of Thunder Lord, Divine Level Quality, yet it only added 36 million attack power.
However, its control system special effect was quite nice, paralyzing the opponent for 1 second every fourth attack, but to Jiang Liu, it was rely a dispensable feature.
“Today, the Divine Level Treasure Chest’s Divine Level treasure map shouldn’t be that bad, right?” Thinking of the Whip of Thunder Lord, Jiang Liu murmured to himself in his heart as if self-soothing.
Indeed, although the Whip of Thunder Lord’s attributes were poor, it was still Divine Level Quality Equipnt.
An Epic Level treasure map could locate Divine Level Quality Equipnt; then, what about the treasure map from the Divine Level Treasure Chest?
With such thoughts, Jiang Liu felt a bit of anticipation again, directly unfolding the treasure map to look.
Hint: You have successfully opened an ancient and mysterious treasure map. This map contains clues to the Ancient Fierce Weapon, the Witch-Slaying Sword…
The sound of the system prompts sounded, seemingly sounding plausible?
And upon hearing the last three words, “Witch-Slaying Sword,” Jiang Liu’s face couldn’t help but change slightly.
“Witch-Slaying Sword? Could it really be the Witch-Slaying Sword I think it is?” Jiang Liu murmured in his heart, feeling extrely expectant.
During the Ancient Tis, the Witch Clan and Demon Clan suppressed the Primordial Continent. When even the Six Saints hadn’t successfully cultivated the Saintly Path, they had to temporarily avoid the sharpness of both the Witch and Demon clans.
The Witch Clan had fewer numbers, but each possessed incredibly strong physiques.
As the conflicts between the Witch and Demon clans deepened, it was said that to counteract the physical bodies of the Witch Clan, the Demon Clan exerted all its efforts to forge a fierce weapon specifically to counteract them, which was the Witch-Slaying Sword!
From the na of this sword, it was evident that it was extrely malevolent, existing solely to counteract the Witch Clan.
After the battle between the Witch and Demon clans ended, the Witch-Slaying Sword was lost.
Could it be? The treasure that this map points to is this legendary Witch-Slaying Sword?
