Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me-Chapter 1292 - 887 The true foundation of the Demon Clan

Since the path they all walked was one of attaining the Dao through Divine Ability, it made no sense that the ancient Kunpeng would have a realization upon seeing Jiang Chen’s Divine Ability, yet the Ancestor of Humanity wouldn’t be moved at all. He naturally also had an enlightenment, and therefore he, too, broke through.

Not just him, but in the Chaos World, all cultivators who follow the path of Divine Ability, as long as their cultivation was above that of an Innate Dao Sovereign, all attained some enlightenment after witnessing Jiang Chen’s Divine Ability, their strength increasing by no small measure.

Ah, this also meant that those who practiced Ancient Martial Arts had become stronger in their cultivation.

This was the only aspect where the present era could surpass the Ancient Era. Even though the environment of Heaven and Earth was becoming increasingly harsh, the path of Divine Ability had reached much higher levels, becoming more powerful.

The era already showed signs of progress. If this development continued, the saying ’the people of today surpass the ancients’ would no longer be a mere slogan, but reality.

As long as the era kept progressing, the people of today would surely surpass the ancients. Only where the era was receding would you see today’s people not matching up to those of the past.

...

Not only had the Ancestor of Humanity’s injuries fully healed, but his strength also soared to a higher level, reaching the half-step of Sub-Saint. This sudden turn of events truly caught these Great Divine Transcendents off-guard.

They were all Great Divine Transcendents, all Sub-Saints. There were more of them on this side, so they naturally did not fear the Ancestor of Humanity. But the other’s power was a level above theirs, making him somewhat difficult to deal with.

But no need to fear. There’s an old saying: if quality doesn’t suffice, supplement with quantity. After all, half-step to Sub-Saint is still just half-step, lacking the final half.

"Ancestor of Humanity, you’re far too arrogant. Five against one, do you really think you can win?"

Amidst the talking, two more top Great Divine Transcendents appeared, joining the previous three in pressing towards the Ancestor of Humanity.

However, just at this moment, a breath that suppressed Heaven and Earth suddenly erupted. In this mysterious and unknown void, a great cauldron quietly emerged, with four legs and two handles. Above the cauldron, the Sun, Moon, and Stars flowed; upon its walls, the manifestation of mountains and rivers...

The Heaven and Earth Cauldron, the top-tier Innate Treasure, the Heaven and Earth Cauldron.

Facing a situation where the enemy was numerous and might overcome him, how could the Ancestor of Humanity not be prepared? Before coming, he had borrowed the Innate Treasure, the Heaven and Earth Cauldron, from Empress Nuwa herself.

This was the Heaven and Earth Cauldron—one of the very highest tier of Innate Treasures. The Duotian Shenfan and the complete Sun, Moon, and Stars Map might just be comparable to it.

But now, these two damaged Innate Treasures, even if tied together, were far from being a match for the Heaven and Earth Cauldron.

To put it more vividly, the Ancestor of Humanity wielding the Heaven and Earth Cauldron could even fight a few rounds against a Saint.

With the Ancestor of Humanity taking out the Heaven and Earth Cauldron, the battle hadn’t even started yet and the outcome was already determined—the Ancestor of Humanity was destined to win. Unless they could borrow the Three Treasures of Opening Heaven or summon a Daluo Jinxian of the Primordial, they would only be blocked here by the Ancestor of Humanity.

"Damn it!"

These Great Divine Transcendents were internally raging, but none of them voiced the question of why Empress Nuwa, a Saint of the Mystic Sect, did not stand with them.

None of the Great Divine Transcendents would accuse Empress Nuwa of firmly standing by the Human Race, because they had no grounds to do so.

Their reason for targeting the Human Race was fundamentally flawed to begin with—the Human Race was also a part of the Mystic Sect. This fact was deliberately ignored by everyone for the sake of seizing the Human Race’s fate.

But if they were to blame Empress Nuwa, it would be the same as bringing up the deliberately forgotten issue themselves. Then, Empress Nuwa could take the opportunity to classify their actions towards the Human Race as internal strife within the Mystic Sect, putting them in a passive situation.

So, it’s not just about borrowing the Heaven and Earth Cauldron—if Empress Nuwa herself came down to handle them, they would not dare to accuse her.

No matter what, they would never bring up the relationship between the Human Race and the Mystic Sect, let alone allow others to mention this issue.

It wouldn’t help even if Empress Nuwa mentioned it—her influence alone was weak, and if she said anything, everyone would simply turn a deaf ear. Unless the acting head of Mystic Sect, the Saint of Taiqing, agreed, whether the Human Race belonged to the Mystic Sect or not was a debatable topic.

...

"Damn it, is Jiang Chen truly a being of this era? Why do I feel that the treasures on him are more abundant than those of many Great Divine Transcendents who have attended the lectures at Zixiao Palace?"

Trapped within the Sun, Moon, and Stars Map, Kunpeng’s ancestor was still able to observe the outside scene, and he was speechless.

He saw that to refine him, one by one, Innate Spiritual Treasures appeared on Jiang Chen, each more powerful than the last, making his eyelids twitch with envy.

Kunpeng’s ancestor was like a pauper; he had only one Innate Spiritual Treasure, which was the Merit Spiritual Treasure Demon Teacher Palace, bestowed by the Heavenly Dao. The rest of the Innate Spiritual Treasures, he had gifted to his disciples.

Through this gesture, he was demonstrating his resolve; he did not believe in magic treasures but only in his invincible Divine Ability.

It was precisely this resolve that led Kunpeng’s ancestor to make exceptional achievements in the way of Divine Ability, far exceeding others.

"Damn it, why hasn’t anyone come to save me? It seems they’ve been held back; I must rely on myself if I want to escape now."

Initially, Kunpeng’s ancestor wasn’t in a rush, as he knew someone would save him.

But as time passed, and no one came, he gradually sensed something was amiss. Those who were supposed to rescue him must have been delayed.
