Chapter 521: Surprisingly, it's him

"Ding! Congratulations, host, for summoning the Nine-Headed Bug!"

The system prompt interrupted Qin Jun's daydream, causing a surge of excitement in his body.

Wow!

The Nine-Headed Bug!

Qin Jun widened his eyes, feeling a rush of adrenaline. He couldn't help but breathe rapidly.

Summoning such a powerful being!

In the entire Journey to the West, there are only a few beings who can match Sun Wukong in a head-on confrontation, especially without powerful magical treasures. The Nine-Headed Bug is one of them. It can single-handedly defeat Sun Wukong and only retreats when faced with the combined forces of Sun Wukong, Erlang Shen, and Zhu Bajie, and even then, it loses a head to the Heavenly Dog.

The Nine-Headed Bug is also the only one to escape from Sun Wukong's grasp. Other demons either get killed or captured by the master, but this one managed to escape, and no one has been able to capture it since. Its fate remains uncertain.

There are even rumors that the Nine-Headed Bug later escaped to a distant island country and became the Eight-Forked Serpent, but of course, this is just a rumor.

"Quick, bring up the attribute list of the Nine-Headed Bug!"

Qin Jun was ecstatic. The monthly opportunity to summon divine beings was approaching once again, bringing him good fortune after good fortune.

It's worth mentioning that the power to summon and fuse has become somewhat redundant. As Qin Jun's luck continues to improve, the divine beings he summons are rarely weak.

Perhaps it will come in handy in the future.

For example, after closing up for a long time, the higher the cultivation level, the longer the seclusion. There are records of great powers closing up for hundreds or thousands of years.

"The Nine-Headed Bug, from Journey to the West."

"Race: Ghost Chariot!"

"Cultivation: Peak of the Taiyi Immortal Realm!"

"Technique: Nine-Headed Body Technique!"

"Divine Ability: Ghost Chariot True Form! Heaven and Earth Escape Technique! Nine Secret Techniques!"

"Magical Treasure: Crescent Moon Spade!"

"Loyalty: 89 (Max value 100)!"

Peak of the Taiyi Immortal Realm!

A look of joy flashed in Qin Jun's eyes. It's no wonder it takes Sun Wukong, Erlang Shen, and Zhu Bajie teaming up to defeat such an opponent. This suggests that the limit of the Nine-Spirit Saint might be the same, or even stronger.

The journey to the west was originally a conspiracy. Sun Wukong may have hidden his true strength, and Erlang Shen would not have given his all for the Jade Emperor. Even so, the strength of the Nine-Headed Bug is evident.

What's most annoying is that its loyalty is not even above ninety. Although it's still very loyal, Qin Jun has a bit of OCD. Fortunately, with Erlang Shen around, he can suppress the Nine-Headed Bug's arrogance.

Tsk tsk, the Nine-Headed Bug, the Nine-Spirit Saint!

What would happen when two nine-headed demons clash?

Nine is an extreme number, indicating their race's extremely high innate talent.

Qin Jun noticed that the Nine-Headed Bug's true form is actually a Ghost Chariot, which is said to be the Nine-Phoenix Divine Bird in legends.

In the TV series of Journey to the West, the Nine-Headed Bug is portrayed as either a nine-headed snake or a nine-headed bug, but in reality, it is neither. In the original Journey to the West, the Nine-Headed Bug is actually a nine-headed bird.

The Buddha once said, "Within the cycle of the week, there are five immortals, namely gods, humans, ghosts, and animals; and there are five insects, namely reptiles, fish, birds, and insects."

The Nine-Headed Bug belongs to the five insects, specifically the bird insect, which is the Nine-Phoenix Bird.

"When will the Nine-Headed Bug arrive?" Qin Jun asked eagerly in his mind.

"Within a day," the system replied, pausing before adding, "Host, rest assured, the Nine-Headed Bug won't be as lazy as Zhu Bajie!"

Qin Jun immediately felt relieved. Mentioning Zhu Bajie, he subconsciously turned to look at him, lying on the cloud, fast asleep. It made Qin Jun want to kick him off the cloud.

"By the way, can the Nine-Headed Bug, Golden Cicada, and Zhu Bajie still use the peak divine being opportunity?" Qin Jun asked curiously in his mind.

Currently, he still has many divine beings that can be upgraded.

"The Nine-Headed Bug and Golden Cicada can still be upgraded, but Zhu Bajie has reached his limit," the system replied, filling Qin Jun with joy. Even the Golden Cicada can be upgraded?

It seems that the Tathagata won't accept mediocre disciples.

"Never mind, let's use the skill inheritance opportunity. There's nothing else to do right now," Qin Jun thought, not wanting to continue cultivating after just breaking through.

Life has so many beautiful things, and time shouldn't be spent solely on cultivation. Ha ha!

"Ding! Begin random skill inheritance!"

Too awesome!

"Ding! Congratulations, host, on acquiring the Straight Punch skill!"

What the heck?

Straight punch?

Damn! What is this? I said I wanted something awesome, not something so lame!

Qin Jun couldn't help but laugh and cry, quickly asking the system, hoping that it wasn't the straight punch he had in mind.

"Straight punch is a punching technique where the punch is delivered in a straight line, and it is the most practical martial art for human warriors!"

Oh my god!

Are you kidding me? Even without any inheritance, I can do a straight punch. Who can't?

Qin Jun's mood instantly became depressed. Life is really full of ups and downs!

...

The news of the Demon King Luo Shu being killed by a mysterious strongman quickly spread throughout the endless territory. At that time, in addition to the demon beasts, many human adventurers also witnessed it, and the towering figure of Yang Jian was too conspicuous.

The news spread rapidly, even reaching the entire Eastern Flame Domain, and Erlang Shen's reputation spread far and wide.

A day passed quickly, and Qin Jun and the others searched for the Demon King, first scaring him away, and then asking where the Night Emperor lived. It was not boring along the way.

At noon that day, Qin Jun and the others rested by the river, and Zhu Bajie was roasting demon birds. It seemed that this guy had been indulging himself on the journey to the west.

"Master, you are better now. When you reincarnate as Tang Sanzang, oh, that's truly transcendent." Zhu Bajie joked.

Liuruo looked at the roasted meat in Zhu Bajie's hand with envy.

Zhu Bajie now knew that Jin Chanzi was not Tang Seng, and it seemed that Qin Jun had the ability to attract strong people from different times and spaces.

Zhu Bajie was in awe of this ability, and Qin Jun's status in his heart had also been elevated.

The most incredible thing about summoning gods and demons was changing their minds, making them feel natural instead of resisting being forcibly pulled into this world.

Compared to being a Pure Altar Messenger in the Buddhist sect, Zhu Bajie preferred his current life, and it was more exciting to follow Qin Jun!

After the journey to the west, Zhu Bajie was almost fading out as a Pure Altar Messenger!

Jin Chanzi rolled her eyes and said, "I won't reincarnate. I'm free now."

Qin Jun almost burst out laughing when he heard this. Perhaps the original Jin Chanzi really didn't want to reincarnate, but was caught by the Tathagata and thrown into the cycle of reincarnation.

At that moment, Yang Jian suddenly frowned and said in a deep voice, "Something is flying over, and it's very strong!"

At this, everyone was shocked. If it was something that Yang Jian considered strong, it must be extraordinary.

Jiutou Chong!

The first thing Qin Jun thought of was him. Judging by the time, he should be here too!

Midnight bomb! Boom!
