Journey to the West: The Demon Emperor

Chapter 227: The Treasure of the Demon Court

Looking at the densely intertwined tree roots in front of him, a bright purple light suddenly lit up in Li Yang's eyes.

This is exactly the embodiment of Li Yang using his own "fate" to push the "Eye of Fortune" to the extreme.

That’s right, the backup plan left by Di Jun can only be seen after the “Eye of Fate” is activated.

After hearing what Di Jun said, Li Yang finally understood why Di Jun chose him to be the next Demon Emperor when they first met.

In addition to seeing Li Yang's potential, there is a more important reason, which is that only Li Yang, who has practiced "The Book of Luck and Ascension", can take out the "Demon Court Relics" sealed in the "Sun Star".

What Li Yang didn't know was that the first opportunity he got after coming to this world, the animal skin scroll that recorded the inheritance of "The Golden Pupil of the Sun" and "The Book of Luck and Ascension", was actually left by Di Jun for Lu Ya.

The position of the Demon Emperor and the treasures sealed in the "Sun Star" were actually all specially left for Lu Ya by Di Jun.

Unfortunately, Lu Ya went against Di Jun's arrangement for him, directly rebelled against the "Wuhuang Palace", and turned to become a disciple of the Two Saints of the West.

Lu Ya's move almost cut off his possibility of becoming the Demon Emperor.

After all, Nuwa, as the only saint born in the demon clan, can be said to be the demon clan’s biggest backer.

After the death of Emperor Jun, Nuwa's status among the demons became unparalleled.

Without Nuwa's support, Lu Ya would never be able to ascend to the throne of the Demon King again unless the Two Saints of the West took forceful action to subdue all the demons including Nuwa.

However, this is of course impossible. A poor demon clan is certainly not worthy of the two Western saints making such a crazy move.

After joining Buddhism, Lu Ya gave up his original path and began to practice the Buddhist teachings passed down by the two saints of the West.

This is also the main reason why he did not discover the "Book of the Great Way to Ascend Luck and Destiny" hidden in the animal skin scroll.

Later, the "Journey to the West Agreement" was formulated, and all the "Daluo"-level strongmen in the three realms began to make moves in order to strive for "Heavenly Merit".

As the "Mahavairocana" of Buddhism, Lu Ya is certainly qualified to intervene.

In this way, in addition to personally giving instructions in Mount Futu, he also gave away the animal skin scroll in his hand that recorded the minor magical power "The Great Sun Golden Pupil", preparing to accept another disciple as one of the eighty-one difficulties.

The one chosen by him was Li Yang, who had not yet awakened at that time.

He has the blood of ancient evil insects in his body and has great potential.

If it is further trained, it will be enough to become a difficulty in the "Journey to the West".

Therefore, Lu Ya specially arranged an opportunity to deliver the animal skin scroll to Li Yang.

According to the original trajectory, after some calculations by Lu Ya, he finally cultivated the famous "Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord" who even caused Sun Wukong to suffer a great loss.

But it happened that Li Yang came through this world!

After obtaining the animal skin scroll, Li Yang, fearing that he would be discovered, chose to leave his nest and disappeared.

That is how Lu Ya calculated the secrets of heaven, but how could he calculate the location of Li Yang, who was protected by the fragments of the "Jade Disc of Creation".

In desperation, Lu Ya could only choose a new demon from the demon tribe with equally good potential to be trained to replace the original "Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord".

Because Li Yang was not paying much attention to the "Journey to the West" at that time, he did not notice this small change.

Afterwards, as Li Yang unravelled the secret on the animal skin scroll and obtained the inheritance of "The Book of Luck and Destiny" left by Di Jun, the possibility of Lu Ya becoming the Demon Emperor was completely cut off.

Although the imprints of Emperor Jun and Taiyi in "Classic of Mountains and Seas" are powerful, they possess the complete combat power of "Daluo".

But they are not real living beings after all, and because Di Jun deliberately concealed it, they did not master the "Book of the Great Way of Luck and Destiny".

Therefore, even if he wanted to pass it to Lu Ya, he couldn't do it.

With all these coincidences, Li Yang got such a great bargain. Li Yang, who knew nothing about this, opened the "Eye of Fortune" and immediately saw a unique root appear in his sight.

Following this root, Li Yang continued to move forward.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Yang finally reached the end of the root.

It was an altar also made up of countless fine roots entangled together.

When Li Yang stepped onto the altar, he instantly saw a ball of light the size of an adult's head floating in the center of the altar.

The ball of light is golden all over, emitting an indescribable mysterious Taoist charm.

According to the information conveyed by Di Jun, Li Yang knew that the treasures of the "Demon Court" were sealed in the ball of light in front of him.

As long as Li Yang removes the restrictions on the ball of light according to the secret method taught by Di Jun, he will be able to obtain a huge amount of treasures.

“Trample! Trample! Trample!…”

Walking to the ball of light, Li Yang clasped his hands together and used a mysterious secret method to gradually untie the restrictions entangled on the ball of light.

"Boom!!!"

As the last restriction was also removed by Li Yang, the ball of light, which was originally only the size of an adult's head, began to expand instantly and burst out with brilliant golden light.

After a moment, a tall door with an ancient shape and made of golden glazed tiles appeared on the altar and stood in front of Li Yang.

"Bang!!!"

Li Yang stretched out his hands and pushed the door hard. The terrifying force pushed the door open, revealing the scene behind the door.

In an instant, dazzling precious light and innate spiritual energy that was so rich that it seemed to turn into liquid suddenly came towards him, causing Li Yang to narrow his eyes subconsciously.

After taking a closer look, Li Yang discovered that the space behind the door was actually connected to the main door.

Reaching out his hand and directing his magic power into the door, Li Yang then discovered that the door in front of him was actually a top-grade acquired spiritual treasure.

Its only function is to guard the independent space behind the door.

As long as Li Yang refines the door in front of him, he can take away everything stored in the space, which is very convenient.

"Boom!!!"

Without any hesitation, Li Yang started to refine the gate.

After being able to control it, Li Yang immediately put it into the "Xuan Universe", and then began to check the treasures stored behind the door.

It has to be said that the "Demon Court" is worthy of being an existence that once divided the world with the Witch Clan. Even a part of its collection is an astronomical figure.

Precious innate spiritual materials are piled up like mountains, and there are not just one but thousands of them.

There are also a large number of acquired spiritual treasures, most of which are sets of standard armor and weapons, at least hundreds of thousands of sets.

After checking, Li Yang discovered that these sets were available at all levels, with the highest being top-grade acquired spiritual treasure level, with a total of forty-nine sets.

Apparently, this was specially prepared by Emperor Jun to make it easier for his successor to build a demon army.

In addition to these, Li Yang discovered that there were twelve innate spiritual treasures in the treasure house.

Among them, there is one top-grade innate spiritual treasure, two mid-grade innate spiritual treasures, and nine low-grade innate spiritual treasures.
