Jiang Liu quickly opened his inventory space and soon saw the loot dropped by King Linggan upon his death.
An Enhanced Healing Potion, and two Healing Potions.
There was also a main weapon and a crystal-like small tag.
As Jiang Liu's gaze fell, the relevant attribute information appeared in front of him.
"Clear Shadow Sword (Legendary Level): Requires level 55, Attack 21200, Special Effect: Art of Sword Control, allowing the sword in hand to fly out to attack the target and then fly back, cooldown ti 500 seconds, durability 85/100!"
"Hmm, this equipnt is indeed good, but what a pity..." As he looked at the legendary Clear Shadow Sword, Jiang Liu couldn't help but shake his head in regret.
Legendary weapons are great, but after comprehensive consideration, it was still inferior to the Colored Glaze Staff he held in his hands.
The Colored Glaze Staff not only had a higher attack power added but also the Shadow Swap effect, which could swap the position of anything with oneself, was even more practical.
Helplessly, Jiang Liu casually threw the Clear Shadow Sword into the Gang's Treasury. This weapon could probably be used by a Demon King under the command of Ming Sect.
After exiting the dungeon over a hundred tis, the equipnt on Jiang Liu had nearly reached the peak, and he even had several good items for level 60 stored away, just waiting for his level to increase to 55 to wear them.
Therefore, although slaying monsters to level up might yield so good equipnt, there were not many that could rival what he currently wore.
After shaking his head, Jiang Liu's gaze imdiately fell upon another little tag that was shimring with golden light. Looking at the attribute information of this small tag, his eyes suddenly brightened with great joy.
Skill Badge (Special Equipnt): Once equipped, it allows the storage of an additional skill within the badge, durability 60/60.
"What a great item!" As he gazed at the golden little tag, Jiang Liu's eyes sparkled with excitent.
All of his skills had cooldown tis, but this Skill Badge could store a skill in advance?
It could play a huge role at critical monts, right?
Take the Silencing Zen skill for example, one cast could silence for 2 seconds, but to use Silencing Zen again, one has to wait for a 30-second cooldown. Enjoy new chapters from My Virtual Library Empire
But what if he had this Skill Badge? Using it twice in a row would an silencing for a total of 4 seconds.
4 seconds! Imagine, 4 seconds where the enemy cannot use any skill-based attacks!
There's also the Weakness Talisman, which could maintain a 10-second weakness state on the opponent. Using two in succession ans a full 20 seconds of weakness?
Or consider the Guanyin Mantra and Hand of Healing; casting an extra one would almost be like maxing out healing, a resurrection!
Or even the Sheep Transformation Technique, and even the attack-type Palm Thunder.
...
For Jiang Liu, this Skill Badge was indeed an unexpected surprise. Imdiately, his eyes settled on the three special equipnt slots he had.
Skill Bookcase, Feather Demon Blade, and World-Destroying Black Lotus.
After a brief consideration, Jiang Liu decided to replace the Feather Demon Blade.
When he first obtained the Flying Equipnt, he was only at the Controlling-Law Realm and couldn't even manage Controlling Artifacts Flight. Now? At the Returning Void Realm, as long as he learned the appropriate skills, he should be able to do Controlling Qi Flight, right?
Therefore, the use of Feather Demon Blade was sowhat diminished.
With a thought, Jiang Liu took down the Feather Demon Blade and, naturally, tossed it into the Gang's Treasury as well. Then, he directly placed the Skill Badge up there.
So, which skill should he store in advance in the Skill Badge?
After pondering quietly for a mont, Jiang Liu raised his palm and cast the Weakness Talisman skill.
Out of the void, an ominous grey-white talisman spontaneously ford and then entered his badge.
After storing a Weakness Talisman in advance, Jiang Liu nodded with satisfaction.
"Now, with an extra Weakness Talisman at my disposal, I wonder if I can try going up against Tathagata during the next dungeon raid!?" As the Weakness Talisman was stored, an idea sparked in Jiang Liu's mind.
Once this thought ca up, it was like a cat's claws scratching at his heart, making it almost unbearable to resist.
Since the first dungeon raid where he went a few rounds against the Tathagata of the Great Thunder Monastery and realized he was no match, Jiang Liu had imdiately escaped using a Random Teleportation Stone.
Now, after nearly half a month of being careful, not only did he have an additional Weakness Talisman, but his equipnt had also improved. Jiang Liu felt it was ti to try again…
Acting on the thought without hesitation and with no mind to cultivate, Jiang Liu headed straight out the door, walking towards Sun Wukong's residence.
However, as he arrived at Sun Wukong's door, Jiang Liu's steps faltered slightly.
There was a figure lingering at the doorway of Sun Wukong's house. On closer inspection, wasn't it Fairy Zixia?
Fairy Zixia paced back and forth at the door to Sun Wukong's room, holding two cups of tea, seemingly looking for an excuse to invite Sun Wukong out to sit and chat over tea.
However, after wandering for so ti, Fairy Zixia seed to lose her courage. With a soft sigh, she turned and left.
"Ah..." Hidden in the shadows, Jiang Liu had initially been silently cheering for Fairy Zixia, but seeing her walk away in the end, he couldn't help but sigh with regret.
After Fairy Zixia left and a mont passed, Jiang Liu stepped forward, knocked on the door, and asked Sun Wukong to open up the Map of Mountains and Rivers. He wanted to descend once more into the Great Thunder Monastery to see if he could defeat the Tathagata!
When he heard that Jiang Liu wanted to take another trip into the world of the Map of Mountains and Rivers and was specifically aiming to challenge the Tathagata, Sun Wukong was intrigued as well.
Although he knew the world within the Map of Mountains and Rivers was illusory, the thought of his master going to challenge the Tathagata filled Sun Wukong with great anticipation.
What was more puzzling was that half a month ago, the master was no match for the Tathagata. Now, even though half a month had passed and the master's cultivation level had indeed improved, from where did suddenly co this confidence that he could defeat the Tathagata?
Curious in his heart, Sun Wukong didn't ask further. Instead, he simply took out the Map of Mountains and Rivers and allowed Jiang Liu to leap into it.
Everything blurred before his eyes, and when Jiang Liu ca to his senses, he found himself outside of the Great Thunder Monastery once again.
Familiar with the routine, Jiang Liu approached the Great Thunder Monastery directly...
Many low-level spirit beasts and Buddhist disciples, around level thirty or forty, were directly confronted by Jiang Liu. Leveraging his high defensive power and the BUFF from the Strengthening Body-Protection Spell, he maximized his area attack skills with the Lotus Spell to deal with them.
With just a 15-second cooldown ti, the Lotus Spell made it easy to clear out the minor demons.
Additionally, with his high attack power, it took Jiang Liu only about ten minutes to eliminate hundreds of minor demons, effortlessly reaping tens of thousands of experience points.
Then, as Jiang Liu ventured deeper, eliminating Arhats and Bodhisattvas beca an easy task.
Even the minor BOSS, Bodhisattva Guanyin, was much easier to deal with than before. After a fierce fight of nearly thirty minutes, almost all of the Bodhisattvas and Buddhas in the Great Thunder Monastery had been cleared out by Jiang Liu.
Having taken a brief rest and reapplying Strengthening Demon-Subduing Mantra, Strengthening Body-Protection Spell, and Vajra Mantra on himself, and waiting for all his skills to be off cooldown, Jiang Liu then made his way to the deepest part of the Great Thunder Monastery and stood before the Tathagata once again.
"What evil demon dares to cause chaos in my Great Thunder Monastery!" The Tathagata, sitting on his Lotus Platform, spoke sternly as he looked at Jiang Liu.
"Save your words; just attack!" Jiang Liu waved his hand dismissively, with no inclination to engage in any further conversation with the Tathagata.
After all, this Tathagata was unreal and did not recognize him at all.
Seeing Jiang Liu's deanor, the Tathagata slightly furrowed his brows and, without suggesting any bets or letting Jiang Liu jump out of his palm, simply lifted his hand and pressed towards Jiang Liu.
With the Tathagata's movent, a giant palm imprint appeared in the void as if swatting a mosquito, descending directly toward Jiang Liu.
As the Tathagata made his move, Jiang Liu raised his hand, and his Colored Glaze Staff shot straight towards the Tathagata, aiming to exchange blow for blow.
With a thunderous crash, the Colored Glaze Staff hit the Tathagata hard, causing his health bar to drop a notch. Enhanced by his powerful equipnt, Jiang Liu's damage to the Tathagata was now higher than it had been half a month ago.
Similarly, as the Colored Glaze Staff hit the Tathagata, the giant palm imprint also fell upon Jiang Liu.
Yet, the exemption effect from the Vajra Mantra ant that Jiang Liu's health bar didn't see a significant drop.
From the damage dealt, even without the exemption from the Vajra Mantra, the palm strike would have only reduced his health bar by about 20%.
While the attack power was still considerable, it was far better than half a month before, when a single hit could take out about half of his health.
Indeed, besides skills, equipnt was also crucially important.
Seeing his palm imprint hit Jiang Liu without much effect as he remained robust, the Tathagata frowned. He then tossed a string of Chant Beads towards Jiang Liu.
In an instant, the Chant Beads wrapped Jiang Liu tightly, rendering him immobile.
However, at that mont, Jiang Liu's eyes narrowed slightly.
Although he had thrown out the Colored Glaze Staff, on the character panel, the staff was still equipped in his weapon slot.
The special effect of the Colored Glaze Staff activated, Shadow Swap!
In the blink of an eye, Jiang Liu disappeared, and the Chant Beads, which had tightly bound him, now bound the Colored Glaze Staff instead.
Nearly at the sa instant, he appeared beside the Tathagata. Stretching out his hand, he touched the Tathagata, unleashing a surge of ferocious lightning that swept across the Tathagata's entire body.
Palm Thunder!
As crackling lightning ravaged him, the Tathagata's health dropped significantly under the attack of the Palm Thunder, the most potent single-target skill.
