Chapter 340 Magic Treasures, Gods and Demons

"Don't worry, you'll have plenty of opportunities to show your skills in the future," Qin Jun waved his hand and smiled.

Joking aside, a powerful figure like Nezha, who had reached the level of a Taiyi Golden Immortal, definitely needed to stay by his side.

What if the Demon Venerable or the Buddhist sect from the Western Regions suddenly attacked? What would they do?

Moreover, Yuan Hong was more steady than Nezha, and Qin Jun felt more at ease with him. If Nezha went, he was afraid he would end up playing the new recruits to death.

Although Nezha was still a bit unwilling, upon careful consideration, he realized that he had only recently joined Qin Jun's side, and Yuan Hong had been with him for a longer time. He calmed down.

There's still a long way to go!

Based on his understanding of Qin Jun, this monarch was not one to just sit back and relax. There would definitely be constant turmoil in the future.

"Your Majesty, when should I set out?" Yuan Hong asked, feeling both excited and a little despondent.

He was excited that he could lead the army into battle, but despondent that he had fallen from the position of the strongest. Those familiar with Qin Jun knew that the people who stayed by his side were undoubtedly the strongest under his command.

But soon, he pushed aside this feeling of despondency. The stronger Qin Jun's power became, the more opportunities he would have to demonstrate his abilities.

"Let's set out today. Bo Wen, you can go and help with the handover on your way," Qin Jun pondered.

"As you command!"

Yuan Hong and Liu Bo Wen nodded and then left.

In the hall, only Nezha and Shen Gongbao remained.

"Shen Gongbao, try to build a better relationship with the Great Sage," Qin Jun said to Shen Gongbao. Upon hearing this, Shen Gongbao became excited.

Shen Gongbao was very clever, not inferior to Liu Bo Wen and Zhuge Liang. Upon hearing Qin Jun's words, he knew that Qin Jun wanted him to team up with the Great Sage.

Although the Great Sage was brave, he still needed the assistance of a strategist. Shen Gongbao himself was also a true immortal. If the two of them joined forces, they might even become the most compatible combination under Qin Jun's command.

Shen Gongbao was good in every aspect, but he was prone to jealousy. Although the Great Sage was fierce, he couldn't outsmart Shen Gongbao. Therefore, Qin Jun was not afraid of his jealousy towards the Great Sage.

"Alright, you can go now. Once the army is ready, you will set out," Qin Jun waved his hand and smiled.

With his growing power and a talented group of subordinates, he no longer needed to run around like before. He could simply command from the rear!

Shen Gongbao nodded quickly and then left, finally having the opportunity to go to battle!

When only Qin Jun and Nezha were left in the hall, Qin Jun asked, "When you fought against the Righteous Alliance, did you encounter any monks?"

Nezha, who was eating fruit, tilted his head and thought, "Indeed, there were five monks. Their strength was quite good, especially when four of them joined forces. They could even battle against cultivators at the level of a Taiyi Golden Immortal."

Just five monks were so strong?

Qin Jun couldn't help but furrow his brow. Fortunately, he had summoned Nezha. Otherwise, relying on Yuan Hong, he didn't know if they could handle such danger.

It seemed that the Buddhist sect from the Western Regions was determined to eliminate him.

Thinking about this, he couldn't help but feel a bit distressed. He hadn't been possessed by a demon, yet they insisted on treating him as one!

He had to admit, the Buddhist sect from the Western Regions was truly righteous.

Qin Jun felt a bit of a headache. The Buddha in the Journey to the West was the highest existence, even though many powerful beings hadn't made a move, he was definitely the strongest on the surface.

Even Sun Wukong, who had caused a great disturbance in the Heavenly Palace, was nothing more than a monkey in his hands, unable to stir up any waves. Sun Wukong's peak period was during the great disturbance in the Heavenly Palace. Five hundred years later, it was unclear whether it was due to the suppression of the Five Elements Mountain or the Golden Cudgel that his combat power had greatly diminished. Of course, it was also possible that Sun Wukong had lost heart and had been concealing his abilities on his journey to the West.

Some people said that during the great disturbance in the Heavenly Palace, all the heavenly deities were going easy on him. Wasn't that nonsense? At that time, Sun Wukong not only made the Heavenly Court unable to hold its head up, but he was also renowned among the demon clan. Every demon he associated with was extraordinary.

Perhaps there were a few heavenly deities who went easy on him, such as the Jade Emperor, the Supreme Old Lord, and others, but certainly not all of them. Sun Wukong's strength was real.

He had to admit that the later generations had painted a bleak picture of the system of the world of the ancient times, as if Journey to the West was a sequel to Investiture of the Gods. However, the truth was that Investiture of the Gods was based on and written in the style of Journey to the West. Saying that the characters in Investiture of the Gods must be stronger than those in Journey to the West was simply absurd. Of course, the system had already gained popularity, making Chinese mythology more vivid.

Who was strong and who was weak, the system had the final say, because gods and demons were all summoned by it.

"Your Majesty, what are you thinking about?" Nezha's question brought Qin Jun's thoughts back to reality.

"Nothing, Nezha. The Buddhist sect from the Western Regions is not easy to deal with. Be extra careful when you encounter them in the future," Qin Jun shook his head.

So far, the power of magical treasures had not been fully demonstrated. Only last time, Red Boy had been suppressed by An Yan Cha's Abyssal Gold Bracelet without any chance of fighting back.

He believed that as his power grew, he would encounter more magical treasures in the future, and the role of magical treasures in battle would definitely be greater. Just like in Investiture of the Gods, magical abilities were nothing compared to powerful magical treasures. As he thought about the upcoming arrival of Golden Horn and Silver Horn, the five magical treasures on their bodies were all from the Supreme Old Lord, making them incredibly powerful.

As he spoke, he once again brought up the attributes of Golden Horn and Silver Horn:

"Golden Horn, Silver Horn, the disciples of the Supreme Old Lord."

"Race: Divine Race!"

"Cultivation: True Immortal Realm, Third Level!"

"Cultivation Technique: Supreme Jade Technique!"

"Magical Treasures: Sheep Fat Jade Cleansing Bottle, Seven Star Sword, Banana Leaf Fan, Purple Gold Red Gourd, and Shimmering Gold Rope!"

"Loyalty: 92 (Full value 100)!"

Although Golden Horn and Silver Horn may only be at the third level of the True Immortal Realm, their five magical treasures are extraordinary. These five treasures were all stolen from the Supreme Old Lord, and they are even capable of matching Sun Wukong in battle.

Nezha is at the fifth level of the Golden Immortal Realm, so Sun Wukong must be even more terrifying, which speaks volumes about the extraordinary nature of the five magical treasures.

"Hmm, they carry the five magical treasures of the Supreme Old Lord. Doesn't that mean the Supreme Old Lord is left with only the Golden Cudgel?" Qin Jun pondered, while also considering asking Golden Horn and Silver Horn for one.

"Your Majesty, does this mean I will continue to conserve my strength?" Nezha couldn't help but ask again.

Qin Jun gave him a disdainful look and said, "Let me give you a heads up. Next, you will battle the strongest in the Southern Domain. What's happening now is just child's play."

Upon hearing this, Nezha's eyes lit up, as he was also a fervent combatant.

"Who is he?" Nezha asked eagerly, his whole being becoming excited, as if he was about to battle the strongest in the Southern Domain.

"He is known as the Demon Lord of the Heavenly Plain," Qin Jun shrugged and chuckled.

According to Mo Xuanfeng and Wang Yan's accounts, the Demon Lord of the Heavenly Plain can even defeat the Holy Emperor, truly making him the strongest in the Southern Domain.

"The Demon Lord of the Heavenly Plain... what an arrogant title," Nezha murmured to himself, clearly showing a strong interest in the Demon Lord of the Heavenly Plain. [End of this chapter]
