After half a month of hesitation, Jiang Liu faced the Tathagata once again and could feel that dealing with the Tathagata now seed a bit easier than half a month ago.
It seed that the complete overhaul of his equipnt had so effect after all.
Half a month ago, Jiang Liu only tested out a few moves and knew he was no match for the Tathagata and decisively used the Random Teleportation Stone to escape.
But now, after testing the waters with a few moves, Jiang Liu felt he might actually stand a chance.
Seeing a glimr of hope for victory, naturally, Jiang Liu beca spirited.
Weakness Talisman!
Seeing the right opportunity, Jiang Liu raised his hand and out of the void, a grayish-white talisman suddenly appeared, landing on the Tathagata and reducing all his attributes by 25%.
Although it lasted only 10 seconds, with the Tathagata's attributes reduced by 25%, Jiang Liu had the upper hand when he made his move.
After the brief 10 seconds, about 70% of the health bar above Jiang Liu's head remained, indicating serious injuries.
However, the Tathagata's health bar also had around 75% remaining.
Judging by the state of the health bars, it was a close match between the two parties, with no significant difference; Jiang Liu was only slightly worse off.
But seeing that the ti was almost right, Jiang Liu raised his hand and cast the Guanyin Mantra Skill on himself, instantly recovering 25% health, healing most of his wounds in the blink of an eye and bouncing back into action.
After another short bout, Jiang Liu once again used a Weakness Talisman from his Skill Badge and threw it at the Tathagata, pressing the advantage once more.
As the effect of the Weakness Talisman was about to run out, Jiang Liu raised his hand again, activating the Hand of Healing Skill.
With a booming sound, a Holy Object descended from the heavens, landing directly on the Tathagata and pinning him firmly underneath.
No matter how hard the Tathagata tried to lift the Holy Object off himself, he was unable to do so.
The indestructible property of the Holy Object was, to a certain degree, akin to a rule-based control Skill.
Taking advantage of the Tathagata being pinned down and unable to move, Jiang Liu naturally did not waste the opportunity, unleashing Flastorm Slash, Palm Thunder, and even the group attack Lotus Spell all at once.
After the effects of the Hand of Healing had passed, only about half of the health bar remained above the Tathagata's head, and he was covered in wounds.
But on the other hand, what about Jiang Liu? Thanks to the Hand of Healing, his health was fully restored by this ti, and the advantage was very clear.
The subsequent battle held no great suspense.
Although Jiang Liu too received blows in the fight, with his healing thods at his disposal, he wasn't too afraid of anything.
In contrast, the Tathagata's wounds grew more severe, and his health bar diminished further.
Suddenly, just as the Tathagata's health bar dropped to only 5%, and it seed he could be killed at any mont, the Tathagata made a move and actually flew toward the distance.
He actually turned and fled!
"The Tathagata fleeing!?" Jiang Liu was stunned as he watched the Tathagata escaping for his life, which was completely unexpected.
However, although all this was unexpected for Jiang Liu, his reaction was still swift, and almost simultaneously, he pointed towards the Tathagata and activated the Sheep Transformation Technique Skill.
Baa...
Falling from the sky, the Tathagata turned into a harmless-looking little lamb, its eyes filled with innocence and bewildernt, evidently clueless about its circumstances.
Without any superfluous words, Jiang Liu charged forward, and the Colored Glaze Staff fell like a violent storm on the Tathagata's body.
After several heavy strikes, at last, the health bar above the Tathagata's head was emptied.
Notification: Gained 205,600 Experience Points, gained 800 taels of money.
As the health bar above the Tathagata's head was emptied, the system notification arrived as promised, bringing inward delight to Jiang Liu.
Killing a 65-level Golden BOSS had rewarded him with 200,000 Experience Points? That was indeed a massive gain!
Half a month ago, facing the Tathagata and knowing he was outmatched after just a few moves, Jiang Liu had fled. But this ti, he found that defeating the Tathagata was easier than he had imagined. Explore more stories with My Virtual Library Empire
After so careful thought, Jiang Liu believed this was a matter of his Profession.
With buffing BUFFs present and healing thods in hand, his endurance in combat was strong, which led to the uniqueness of the battle.
It felt like a tipping point, where if the opponent's strength was too great, surpassing that point, then he simply wouldn't be a match and would be completely overwheld.
But if the opponent's strength didn't exceed that point, then fighting would reveal the miraculous nature of his Skills and the special effects of his Equipnt, leading to overwhelming the opponent himself.
```
You don't crush , I crush you!
Jiang Liu felt that the uniqueness of his strength caused every fight with an opponent to be a polarized situation.
As for a closely matched, bitter struggle? Such scenarios were extrely rare.
It's like flipping a coin, heads or tails, the likelihood of it landing on the edge? Virtually nil.
Never mind what Jiang Liu was thinking, but seeing Jiang Liu really kill the Tathagata, Sun Wukong, who had been observing the battle from outside the Map of Mountains and Rivers, directly opened up the map.
Moved by a thought, Jiang Liu looked up at the sky, which was rippling in waves.
With a leap, Jiang Liu jumped straight out from the Map of Mountains and Rivers.
"Hehehe, master, impressive!"
Watching Jiang Liu erge, Sun Wukong gave him a thumbs-up and sincerely praised, "Half a month ago, you weren't a match for that old Tathagata, but now, you've defeated him. You've really increased your strength with these Dharma Treasures in the past half month! How about getting a set of these treasures for I, Old Sun, when you have the ti?"
While speaking, Sun Wukong's eyes glead, staring intensely at the equipnt on Jiang Liu.
To Sun Wukong, he had, aside from the Ruyi Golden Cudgel, possessed items like the Golden Chainmail, Phoenix-Wing Purple Gold Crown, and Lotus Filant Step-on-Cloud Shoes from the Dragon Palace. But alas, after he was thrown into the Alchemy Furnace, everything was burnt by the Samadhi True Fire of the Supre Elder Lord.
"You!? Don't worry, in the future, your master will surely prepare so suitable Dharma Treasures for you!" Jiang Liu nodded in response to Sun Wukong's words.
That was actually the truth. Now, when leveling up by defeating monsters, his targets were usually around level fifty or sixty, and so he could often loot equipnt of that level.
In a few more days, when he could fight monsters of level seventy or eighty, he believed he would definitely be able to get equipnt of those levels fit for use.
At that ti, it would definitely be necessary to put together a set of equipnt for Sun Wukong and the others.
After all, if Sun Wukong and the others beca stronger, overturning the Great Thunder Monastery in the Western Heaven would beco easier, wouldn't it?
"Hehehe, master, you said it…" Hearing Jiang Liu's words, Sun Wukong's face lit up with joy and excitent.
However, as soon as his words fell, Sun Wukong seed to think of sothing, paused imdiately, but looked seriously at Jiang Liu and said, "Master, I have to be upfront, the Dharma Treasures and armants that I, Old Sun want, can't be things like a Tiger Skin Skirt!"
"Rest assured! Your master doesn't have such things!" Hearing Sun Wukong's words, Jiang Liu's face darkened a bit, and he replied irritably.
The equipnt slots in the character interface didn't include anything like pants, so even if Sun Wukong wanted a Tiger Skin Skirt or sothing, Jiang Liu had none to offer!
After defeating the Tathagata in the instance dungeon of the Thunder Monastery, Jiang Liu felt a sense of refreshnt in both body and mind. After leaving Sun Wukong's room, he returned to his own room, opened his package space, and checked what sort of treasures the Golden BOSS, like the Tathagata, had dropped.
Looking over them, several potions, needless to say.
Besides those, there were also a few pieces of equipnt. The quality was good, and there was even one piece of Legendary Level quality.
Unfortunately, none were better than what he currently wore, so Jiang Liu tossed all these pieces of equipnt into the Gang's Treasury.
However, suddenly, a purple-red stone appeared before Jiang Liu's eyes, which made them light up.
"Strengthening Stone? Or so other kind of stone?" Jiang Liu curiously wondered to himself while looking at the purple-red stone.
If it was a Strengthening Stone, that would be good, as it could directly enhance his equipnt, whether mainstream or Special Equipnt.
As Jiang Liu's gaze settled on the purple-red stone, the corresponding Attribute Information naturally appeared before him.
"Soul Gem (Consumable): Requires the Blacksmith Profession, can be inlaid into equipnt to form a Soul Binding. Once bound, the equipnt cannot be lost!"
Reading the information about the gemstone, Jiang Liu sighed with a hint of disappointnt. It wasn't a Strengthening Stone, just a Soul Binding gemstone, huh?
What use was that? The equipnt he wore was updated so fast, what good would binding them do?
Looking at the Soul Gem, Jiang Liu reflexively thought of the Map of Mountains and Rivers...
However, the Map of Mountains and Rivers was a tool, not Equipnt, so the Soul Gem ntioned could only be used to bind equipnt.
Shaking his head, Jiang Liu temporarily stored the gemstone in his package space, deciding to worry about it later.
...
Putting aside what Jiang Liu and the others were doing in Chen Family Village, at this ti, in the Tongtian River, an enormous tortoise slowly surfaced from the waters.
With the tortoise's appearance, one could see it was massive.
The feeling it gave was like a large ship rising up from beneath the river water.
After reaching the shore of the Tongtian River, the giant tortoise transford, shortly turning into an old man in his seventies or eighties, who then got onto the bank and walked towards Chen Family Village.
