What kind of Journey to the West is this?

Zhongtiao refers to Zhongtiao Mountain; Tiandun is what Luo Sushang learned.

This Tiandun Sword Technique was actually passed down from Huolong Zhenren to Luo Sushang, who was then passed down to Huolong by Lü Dongbin. Later, Lü Dongbin, in his reincarnation, learned that fragments of the Tiandun Sword Technique and the Three Wuming Swords had been passed down in Zhongtiao Mountain. Feeling it was a fortuitous opportunity, he passed down the complete Tiandun Sword Technique and the Three Wuming Swords to Chen Qingliang, the swordsman immortal of Zhongtiao Mountain.

This is what later generations’ Lu Zu wrote in his “Caotang Autobiography”: “I have two swords, both of which were passed down from Master Huolong, from the Zhongtiao Laomu school.”

Let’s talk about An Yanxia who got the opportunity to break through the realm. After playing in Puzhou for a few days with Luo Sushang and Xue Shier, she was about to set off for Chang’an City.

But at this moment, three dark figures saw them leaving from afar on Shenyuan Peak. They gestured and said, "They have all left Zhongtiao."

Soon the three dark shadows disappeared into the forest.

....................

On the other side, An Yanxia and the other two chatted and laughed as they walked for another ten miles.

On the way, An Yanxia talked about her encounter with the Kuilong clan in Cangzhou, and Luo Sushang suddenly became serious.

She said, "Junior sister, this demon is none other than the Hundred Poisons Demon Lord who was chasing me."

An Yanxia wondered, "Isn't that person called Hu Fangyuan?"

"That's probably his secular name, or perhaps just an alias. The so-called Kuilong clan, the Hundred Poison Demon Lord, and Hu Fangyuan are actually the same person. He's probably a practitioner of the talismanic lineage, possessing the magical powers of a mid-level third-grade Dharma Protector, and has also cultivated earth immortality and alchemy. If we were to fight openly, I'd probably be able to fight him 70:30."

An Yanxia perked up and asked, "You seven?"

"He is seven..."

Well, it turns out that 70% of it belongs to someone else.

An Yanxia was not discouraged and asked again, "Then I guess Senior Sister, you are in the dark, so you must have a 50% chance of winning?"

"........"

Luo Sushang wanted to say something but stopped herself.

The viper is a poisonous snake, and is extremely cunning and alert.

An Yanxia saw through it but didn't say anything. She chuckled a few times and said, "Let's not talk about that. Let's not talk about that. I see there's a peach orchard up ahead. I'll go pick some peaches to quench your thirst."

She flew away on a cloud, and after flying over ten miles she came to a peach forest. She rolled up the corner of her clothes and picked out the biggest and most beautiful peach to put in the forest.

But when I pinched the peach with my fingers, it was hard. It didn't look like a peach at all, but more like an iron ball.

She sensed something and thought to herself, "How strange!" Then, thick smoke billowed from the peach, obscuring her vision.

When he came to his senses, a wolf-headed monster appeared from each side. Both monsters were holding steel knives, wearing leather armor, and barking fiercely.

In front of him was a tiger-headed monster with wings on its back, carrying a nine-ring broadsword and cursing:

"You damned Taoist priest! You actually framed me, the Six Saints of Zhongnan!

"In accordance with the rules of the martial arts world, I will leave you one set of clothes, but the rest of the magic treasures, the imperial court, and everything else must be handed over to me!"

Journey to the West by the Supreme Immortal: Chapter 302 [The Tiger Demon Accidentally Steals the Treasure]

An Yanxia took a look and realized that it was true that enemies often meet: she had been taking the blame some time ago and had provoked the real culprit.

The Flying Tiger, clutching a nine-ring broadsword, cursed without hesitation, "We, the Six Saints of Zhongnan, were living a peaceful life in Zhongnan Mountain. How could you, a thief, have such evil intentions that you ruined my reputation? What crime should you take?"

An Yanxia said, "If it weren't for your greed and desire to seize the imperial power, how could you have been involved in this matter? You can't blame me for everything!"

"I don't care! Two of my little demons were captured by the City God's Mansion, and you must give me an explanation. First, compensate me with three thousand taels of gold, three million copper coins, and your pair of copper maces that can drill through dragon scales!"

"Three thousand taels? Three hundred million?"

An Yanxia gasped, leaned back with her hands on her hips, and asked in surprise, "Can you bring it over?"

In the Tang Dynasty, one liang was more than 30 grams, and 3,000 liang was almost 100 kilograms.

Three million copper coins, assuming that the inferior coins mixed with tin and lead are not used, one five-zhu piece would weigh three grams, or nine tons.

Cha Chi Hu was also confused by An Yanxia's question for a moment. He just thought about the lion's request to return the money without thinking about it carefully.

Now that I think about it, he only brought two men with him, and he didn't have a donkey cart or an ox cart, nor did he bring a snakeskin bag. How did he get so much money?!

The tiger-turned-demon scratched his head, feeling that An Yanxia's words made sense, and changed his words: "Then one thousand taels of gold and five hundred thousand copper coins will be fine."

"You thief, pay up!"

The two wolf demons also shouted: "Pay up! Pay up!"

An Yanxia said, "I don't have any money! If you don't believe me, come and search."

She emptied her pockets and shook her sleeves, and sure enough, not a single copper coin fell out.

The Flying Tiger said angrily, "For the three of us monsters to search you is a disrespect and a lack of propriety. You, a thief, must have the Sun and Moon in the Pot, the Sumeru Mustard Seed, and yet you're still teasing us!"

"Come and take my knife!"

Immediately, there was a clanging sound of iron rings, and a nine-ring broadsword came down fiercely.

An Yanxia dodged easily by turning sideways, stretched out her hand to summon the bronze mace, and smashed it on the back of the winged tiger. There were two dull thuds, as if it had hit a stone.

This body is really strangely hard.

The winged tiger roared a few times and said, "Don't waste your energy. I have a body of iron and steel, and I was born as a mortal who has practiced the art of refining demons. No weapon can harm me, and no water or fire can intrude upon me."

"I see, I see! No wonder your sword moves are so powerful, it turns out you have another magical power."

An Yanxia's eyes also lit up. She had made a lot of progress in her skills since she started practicing, but her weapons and martial arts had been put aside for a long time - mainly because the monsters, ghosts, gods and immortals along the way were not as good as the monk Daoming from her novice village, and they were beaten by her in a few moves.

The martial arts masters and generals in the human world had good martial arts skills, but they were too fragile. They would die if she scraped them with her pair of copper maces, and would be injured if she rubbed them. There was no way she could beat them.

Now seeing a big sandbag like the Winged Tiger, she was immediately delighted. Without using any magic or supernatural powers, she just picked up the bronze mace and attacked it head-on.

A Qin King's Whip Stone fell, and the Winged Tiger was knocked back seven or eight steps. It felt like Mount Tai was pressing down on its shoulders, and it exclaimed in horror: "What kind of strange power is this?"

Although this tiger demon is not proficient in magic, his body is very strong and his martial arts are very skilled. He was able to block An Yanxia's bronze mace without any injury. His body strength is even greater than that of Monk Daoming.

The bronze mace was raised again, and the Winged Tiger blocked it with its sword. However, with a loud bang, the tiger demon shrank two inches. An Yanxia thought the tiger was dead, but then she saw the Winged Tiger pinching a seal with one hand and holding the sword with the other. The sharp and swift sword light slashed out, sending out waves of air.

——Come with a deceitful face.

Exactly: One is Cangzhou's Supreme Master An, the other is Zhongnan's Winged Tiger Great Sage. This one once shifted the blame, creating a grudge; the other, unfaithful, stole a gold ingot. Meeting on a narrow road, both eager to gamble. The tiger demon's weight is unpredictable, and the Great Sage knows neither soft nor hard. A bronze mace crushes Mount Hua, a steel blade dances like a phoenix. The one is imposing in a one-on-one fight, while two wolf demons arrive to add to the fun. The tiger demon is genuinely startled, and his surprise ends in his death.

The man and the monster fought for more than twenty rounds. An Yanxia flicked his sleeves and two iron chains flew out, tying up the wolf monster. The winged tiger also revealed a flaw and was hit hard on the shoulder by An Yanxia.

Even the Flying Tiger, with his formidable frame, was utterly afflicted by the blow. He retreated several steps and said, "I haven't had lunch yet, and I'm starving! I'm completely exhausted. Let's discuss this after I've had lunch."

An Yanxia said, "You idiot, if you can't fight, then you can't fight. What excuses are you making? I think you shouldn't leave. It's a good idea to stay. I'll tie up the three of you and take you home to Zhongnan Mountain later."

An Yanxia turned around and a small sword rose in her palm.

This is exactly how the Heavenly Heart Sutra sword is used, which can break all the enemy's magic and the bad guys' supernatural powers. The flying tiger felt cold all over, looked at the two wolf monsters and shouted hurriedly: "Quickly retreat!"

"Six Great Kings! We are all tied up, we can't leave!"

"My king, hurry up! We are here to stop this demon."

The two wolf demons were loyal and cried and barked, each biting the corner of An Yanxia's clothes.

The Flying Tiger suddenly felt sad, thinking to himself, "If I go back empty-handed, won't I have lost two brothers in vain?"

He gritted his teeth, and the wings that were folded behind him suddenly stretched out. The flapping of the wings raised up dust, and the tiger demon turned into a ball of black wind.

A black wind swept past An Yanxia, and he chanted a small spell, and a box fell into the tiger demon's hands out of thin air.

An Yanxia didn't expect that the monster was so bold that it dared to rush straight towards her, so she couldn't react for a while.

When she came to her senses, the black wind had already blown away for who knows how far.

The two wolf demons were still biting her boots. An Yanxia kicked them aside speechlessly, "You two are quite loyal."

The wolf demons all bark and are quite fierce.

A loyal dog indeed...

An Yanxia ignored them and went to the peach forest to pick a bag of peaches. She asked them, "Have you eaten yet?"

The two monsters were stunned. The Winged Tiger hadn't eaten yet, so how could they possibly eat? They both shook their heads.

Seeing that An Yanxia had picked so many peaches, the two wolf demons swallowed their saliva, and their two big tails began to spin like windmills.

"Then stay hungry."

Wolf demon: “???”

Anyway, there was no Geneva Convention in the Tang Dynasty.

An Yanxia took Tao'er to find Xue Shi'er and Luo Sushang.

The two were shocked when they heard that An Yanxia was robbed on the way. After careful inquiry, they found out that she was safe and sound, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

An Yanxia remembered what the Flying Tiger had taken from her before leaving, and searched carefully:

The glazed cup, the golden dragon mace, the silver dragon mace, the Zuwang Heavenly Book, the detoxification pill, the Great Sun Pill, the feathers of the Peng Demon King, the fur of the Golden Sparrow Fairy, the precious medicines of Jiaoli, Huozao, and Bi Lotus, as well as spare clothes, special items such as aromatherapy candles and dripping wax candles, as well as the original bellyband of Snow Lion, rice wine brewed by Yu Qinghuai, and other miscellaneous things... they are all there.

What's missing?

"Hey, the gift box I prepared for Li Jing is gone!"

Seeing An Yanxia was a little annoyed, Luo Sushang asked with concern, "Is this box very valuable?"

"Yes, they are quite valuable. I have prepared three boxes in total for you, Senior Sister, Sect Leader Qi Huizi, and General Li Jing.

"The first two were made of nanmu wood inlaid with gold-thread patterns. Li Tianwang's eldest prince, Jinzha, was indebted to me, and the second prince, Muzha, also helped me, so I prepared them with great care: they were two-layered treasure boxes, the outer layer covered in gold and silver Kuruzhen, and the inner layer in rosewood and mother-of-pearl. I never expected it to be stolen by that tiger demon!"

Journey to the West by the Supreme Immortal: Chapter 303 [The Joy of This Place]

This box is indeed ordinary, it is just a packaging box.

Anything An Yanxia could pick out from the Sumeru mustard seed would be much more valuable than this thing.

But this is a very delicate packaging box, with a layer of gold and silver and a layer of rosewood and mother-of-pearl. People say that it is "finely filled with gold and silver, and inlaid with mother-of-pearl and various treasures." It is beautiful and exquisite, and a work of art beyond compare.

This wooden box would be a precious cultural relic worth tens of millions if it were auctioned off in the future. An Yanxia spent a lot of effort and money customizing it.

She thought that this monster could have taken anything else, but he had to take this. She didn't know what kind of shitty luck he had.

Luo Sushang frowned upon hearing this. She had thought losing a wooden box was no big deal, but she hadn't expected the box to be a treasure. She immediately exclaimed, "What a Winged Saint! Junior Sister, just go get it. I want to see how powerful these Six Saints of Zhongnan are!"

In this matter, the big-breasted master is still reliable. She helps when she says she will.

Seeing Luo Sushang wanted to help her, An Yanxia was delighted and stood on tiptoe to give her a kiss. Xue Shier was still watching from the side, and the little lion said unhappily, "I want to help too! Taoist priest, just go and ask, and I'll take care of the rest!"

An Yanxia found this funny and kissed the snow lion, and only then did the lion calm down.

She said, "As the ancients said, 'Repay kindness with kindness, and repay grievances with justice.' Since he stole my box, this grudge must be settled. Furthermore, I've heard that the Six Saints of Zhongnan are also involved with the Kuilong clan, so I must get to the bottom of this matter."

"It's easy to say, but I don't know where the Six Saints of Zhongnan are. And since they call themselves the Zhongnan Demon Bandits and the Six Saints, they are obviously not ordinary people. So there's no need to rush. Let's go to Chang'an first and slowly plan."

Luo Sushang frowned and said, "This is indeed a trouble."

Xue Shier said, "That's easy! Taoist priest, didn't you capture two wolf demons? They came from Zhongnan Mountain, and you didn't kill them, so they will definitely go back. I'll help you keep an eye on them, and you just..."

Xue Shier hesitated to speak. She was just about to say that you and that big bear woman should go to Chang'an City first.

But then she thought: If these two go to Chang'an first, what will happen to her? Will she be left here all alone?

Seeing this, Luo Sushang smiled and said, "If we want to find the cave of the Six Saints, I've thought of a way. I have a bottle of green fly blood here. Apply it to the two wolf demons you captured. If the wolf demon moves, the insect queen here will sense it and can help us find its location."

"That's a good trick!"

An Yanxia got the insect blood and Tengyun went to the peach forest again.

At this moment, the two wolf demons had their hands and feet tied with iron chains, and they were struggling to crawl into the peach forest like two gray-black beasts.

The peaches in the orchard were already ripe, many falling to the ground and exuding an alluring fragrance. The two wolf demons hadn't eaten all day, their stomachs growling, and they couldn't resist such temptation. Their noses twitched, and their mouths watered with greed.

As they crawled, their tails whirred in circles, sweeping up fallen leaves all over the sky.

An Yanxia saw this and thought, "Wow, you two brothers are truly born to be robot vacuum cleaners." The bad woman raised her hand and swatted the two wolf demon brothers, who were about to bite the rotten peaches on the ground, to her feet.

The two wolf demons saw that the peach they were about to eat was gone, and saw An Yanxia return. They thought that this heartless girl was here to kill them, and burst into tears, saying, "What kind of evil things have we done? Why can't you even let us have our last meal?"

An Yanxia asked, "Are you hungry?"

"Great Immortal! Since immortals value life, please let us have some lunch. If we have nothing in our stomachs, we will starve to death even in the underworld!"

"Hey, come and eat!"

An Yanxia picked a few big and sweet peaches, smeared them with green fly blood, and threw them into the wolf demon's mouth.
