Chapter 984: Chapter 984: Skill Awakening Success
“Is this what they call good karma?” The sudden descent of virtue made Jiang Liu ponder silently in his heart.
To be honest, it’s not the first ti I’ve completed a task by helping others, but why was there no virtue before?
This ti, the task isn’t even finished, yet virtue has already descended?
Is it because I wanted to help others? Impossible!
Is it because I broke through to the level of Daluo Golden Immortal? That’s impossible too!
Is it because I’m now the Ming Sect Master and the Ming Sect has been acknowledged by the Heavenly Dao? That doesn’t seem very likely either!
So, what exactly is the reason?
“Could it be because I decided to do good deeds without any selfish motives?” Finally, a thought suddenly popped into Jiang Liu’s mind.
Yes, this ti I could have continued to delay, and the life and death of the people within a hundred miles didn’t concern .
However, for these people, I chose to complete this calamity ahead of ti.
Is it because of this mindset that heaven bestowed virtue upon ?
In the past, although I did many good deeds, they always mingled with my self-interest—for completing tasks, for gaining Experience Points, for receiving rewards…
But this ti, choosing to complete the task in advance had no selfish motives? So heaven bestowed virtue upon ?
After thinking it over, Jiang Liu felt that this possibility seed the greatest.
Is having the intention to do good not considered good? Is this the essence of whether the Heavenly Dao bestows virtue?
Of course, regarding this point, I should find an opportunity to verify it properly in the future.
Shaking his head, Jiang Liu temporarily set aside these thoughts. Anyway, being able to receive virtue from heaven is naturally beneficial and harmless for him.
Jiang Liu opened his mouth and called Sun Wukong and the others to prepare to set out.
However, at this mont, suddenly, a figure appeared without any warning right in front of him.
“Greetings, Taoist Friend!” The figure that suddenly jumped out was none other than Jiang Liu’s evil corpse.
Jiang Liu hadn’t summoned it by opening the severance of corpses page; rather, the evil corpse jumped out on its own.
“Taoist Friend, appearing so suddenly, what’s the matter?” Jiang Liu returned a greeting, curiously asking.
“Yes, I indeed have a piece of good news to tell you!”
Hearing Jiang Liu’s words, the evil corpse, dressed in a dark black Taoist robe, also showed a smile on its face, saying, “It’s been several months, I’ve been awakening the Sheep Transformation Technique skill, and just now, I finally succeeded in breaking through!”
“Oh!?”
Hearing the evil corpse’s words, Jiang Liu’s eyes widened, and a look of surprise appeared on his face, saying, “The Sheep Transformation Technique has finally succeeded? Now, can this control skill work on Quasi-Saints as well?”
Awakening, a new ability unlocked when my level reached 80, could enhance inherent skills.
These days, whenever the evil corpse had ti, it would be on the awakening page, awakening the Sheep Transformation Technique control skill. Over so much ti, Jiang Liu originally thought there was no hope anymore, almost forgetting about this matter.
Unexpectedly, at this mont, the awakening of the Sheep Transformation Technique succeeded?
“Yes, I’m only at the Taiyi Realm cultivation level. Awakening this rule-type Sheep Transformation Technique skill was incredibly difficult, especially to make it work against Quasi-Saints!”
Considering the efforts made to awaken the Sheep Transformation Technique during recent days, the evil corpse’s face also showed a look of appreciation.
The hardships endured and the energy spent to awaken this skill, only I know.
After the evil corpse sighed, its gaze fell on Jiang Liu, saying, “Although this skill is considered successfully awakened, its effect on Quasi-Saints does not have a one hundred percent success rate!”
“Oh? How so?” Upon hearing the evil corpse’s words, Jiang Liu’s brows furrowed slightly, asking further.
“The Sheep Transformation Technique is a rule-type skill. To make it work against Quasi-Saints depends on your proficiency with this skill and the opponent’s comprehension of the rules!”
“The more I use this skill, the more proficient I beco, and the higher the success rate will be, but if the opponent is a Quasi-Saint with a profound understanding of rule abilities, the success rate of this skill will be lower!”
“That’s basically the situation!”
“Hmm, sounds quite reasonable!” Hearing the evil corpse’s explanation, Jiang Liu thought about it and nodded in agreent.
Even though the skill can’t achieve a one hundred percent success rate on Quasi-Saints after awakening, having a certain success rate is still very practical.
Even if it’s not one hundred percent, it’s still quite impressive.
“Hmm, next, I’ll trouble you with the other rule-type skills!” Nodding his head, Jiang Liu felt quite satisfied and spoke to the evil corpse.
“Don’t worry! My next skill, I’ll awaken the Weakness Talisman!” After nodding, the Evil Corpse spoke.
“Hmm, this skill indeed works!” Thinking that if the Weakness Talisman could affect Quasi-Saints, reducing all their attributes by 25%, Jiang Liu also nodded, feeling that this ability is incredibly powerful.
If the Weakness Talisman, which reduces by percentage, could indeed affect Quasi-Saints,.
then, the impact of this skill would be even more terrifying, wouldn’t it?
After a brief chat about awakening, the Evil Corpse didn’t say more useless words. His figure moved and returned to the awakening page again.
This ti, the skill chosen by the Evil Corpse to awaken is the Weakness Talisman.
“Alright, Wukong, let’s go investigate the mountain together!”
For Jiang Liu, the ergence of the Evil Corpse and the successful awakening of the Sheep Transformation Technique were rely a small interlude, yet joyful news. It was a brief digression. Afterward, Jiang Liu returned to the main topic, saying to Sun Wukong and the others.
“Okay, Master!” Following Jiang Liu’s words, Sun Wukong and the others nodded.
Imdiately, the five-mber team on the Journey to the West for Scriptures set off, heading toward the nearby mountain.
The distance to the mountain wasn’t very far, only about thirty to forty li as far as the eye could see.
Usually requiring a day’s journey if strolling, but for Jiang Liu and others who wished to complete the task, they reached there in no ti.
The Local Deity ntioned that the red light from the sky landed deep in the mountain, attracting many demons and ghosts to contend, since then, the weather in this area beca increasingly hotter each day.
Now, how exactly have things changed?
Firelight!
As Jiang Liu and others entered the mountain, they could clearly see intense flickering firelight deep within it.
Sun Wukong hovered in mid-air, his eyes glowed with golden light, observing the mountain’s interior.
“Master, there’s sothing strange inside!” After the golden light in his eyes faded, Sun Wukong turned to Jiang Liu and said.
“Oh? Wukong, what did you see?” Jiang Liu turned to ask Sun Wukong.
“I couldn’t see clearly, only that deep inside the mountain, there is a very intense firelight, and it doesn’t seem naturally ford!” Sun Wukong replied, shaking his head slightly.
“Not naturally ford, does that an soone is controlling it?” The White Dragon Horse under Jiang Liu interjected after hearing this.
“Let’s descend and have a closer look!” Sun Wukong pondered briefly and then spoke.
In their conversation, Jiang Liu and the others descended toward the mountain’s depths.
Indeed, this area was extrely hot, but the core heat was at the mountain’s depth, resembling a volcano.
Jiang Liu and his party could see deep into the mountain, a large cave extended deeply, emitting astonishing heat.
Among Jiang Liu’s group, even the weakest, the White Dragon Horse, had the cultivation level of the Taiyi Middle Stage, allowing them to descend into the cave without much impact.
Lava, flas, scorching heat!
Upon descending into this subterranean cave, Jiang Liu and others could clearly see everything turned fiery red, lava surging, flas darting.
“Master, sothing’s off with the flas in here!” Sun Wukong glanced at his curled fur, speaking with a grave tone.
“Indeed, Master, the flas here don’t seem like ordinary fire!” Zhu Bajie also spoke, appearing serious. Given Zhu Bajie’s experience overseeing eighty thousand naval forces of the Heavenly River, he naturally had a keen sensitivity to flas.
“Seemingly more formidable than Red Boy’s Samadhi True Fire!” Jiang Liu’s Little White Dragon also spoke with a serious expression.
After devouring the residual inner core of the Ancient Candle Dragon, Little White Dragon’s bloodline advanced to the level of a Five-Clawed True Dragon, possessing the power to control Dragon Fire. Likewise, Little White Dragon had a deep understanding of flas.
“Hmm, Wukong, look into where these flas originate!” Nodding slightly, Jiang Liu turned to Sun Wukong beside him.
“Sure, Master!” Sun Wukong nodded, showing no objection.
Hovering in mid-air, Sun Wukong thrust his Jingu Bang into the cave’s lava.
With a thought, Jingu Bang grew longer and thicker, directly thrusting into the subterranean lava.
Then, Sun Wukong applied force to his arms, stirring the lava instantly into a whirlpool shape.
Roar!
With Sun Wukong’s action, a terrifying roar suddenly echoed throughout the cave.
Imdiately afterward, a figure appeared slowly erging from the lava.
A figure tens of ters tall, humanoid yet completely scarlet, appearing ferocious and terrifying, emitting a dreadful, scorching aura…
