Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me-Chapter 114: Merit Gold Wheel

That was normal. Given the strength of Daozu, it was already extremely extraordinary that Xi Huang could record his preaching. Asking for more would be demanding too much.

Even though Xi Huang’s recording was not very clear, it didn’t really affect Jiang Chen.

Because he had the Dao Mirror.

With the Dao Mirror’s blessing, within the Xi Huang’s legacy, the originally blurry sound was getting clearer and louder, which was quite deafening.

This was because the current Dao Mirror had not yet returned to its peak state. Otherwise, even with just the sound within the Xi Huang’s legacy, it would be able to recreate the entire scene of Daozu’s preaching in the past.

The Dao Mirror reflects the past, present, and future - this wasn’t just empty talk.

In this state, when Jiang Chen listened to Daozu’s words, apart from not being able to see Daozu’s appearance, the rest was no different from personally going to the Zixiao Palace to listen to his preaching.

The Dao Sound roared, full of profound mysteries. Immersed in it, Jiang Chen felt various understandings of Merit well up in his heart, giving him a new appreciation for it. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

At some point, Jiang Chen felt a rush of good fortune overwhelming his spirit, prompting him to mobilize the Merit within his body. A brilliant golden light gushed out from within his body, forming a golden pagoda above his head.

The pagoda had nine layers, its entirety was golden, enveloped around wisps of Primordial Yellow Qi, very much resembling the Divine Treasure of Daoism - Heaven and Earth Primordial Yellow Tower.

Swish...

The very next moment, the pagoda trembled and changed shape, becoming a Dao Bell.

The Dao Bell rang softly, emitting a warning bell sound that seemed to allow people to understand and maintain a moment of tranquility in their hearts.

Following the Dao Bell, the Merit golden light transformed into a golden treasure umbrella, which hung over Jiang Chen’s head. It dropped strands of Primordial Yellow Qi, shielding heavenly secrets from outside demons, and protecting a pure heart.

The deeper Jiang Chen’s understanding of Merit, the more vigorous the changes of the Merit golden light on his body. It continuously transformed its shape into a tower, a bell, an umbrella, a bead...

These treasures, though different in form, were fundamentally the same. They all served as carriers of Great Dao, instruments for carrying the Dao. They can suppress outside demons and purify oneself.

When the changes of the Merit golden light reached its limit, it suddenly traced back to its origin, transforming back into a cluster of golden light.

Then, one could see a series of brilliant divine halos rising from the Merit golden light, hanging behind Jiang Chen’s head, making him look like a divine saint.

After five divine halos were raised, the Merit golden light was exhausted and disappeared as a stream of light.

It was also at this time that Jiang Chen woke up from his Tao enlightenment. The Dao Sound in his ear gradually disappeared, and the Zixiao Palace in front of him also disintegrated and disappeared into mist.

"What a pity." Without feeling the changes in his body right away, Jiang Chen actually looked at the gradually disappearing Zixiao Palace with regret.

In the Xi Huang’s inheritance, the part regarding Daozu’s preaching obviously couldn’t be used unlimitedly. At most, it could only be used three times.

After three times, this Dao Sound would disappear into thin air. And before Jiang Chen, this Dao Sound had been used twice.

Once by Xi Huang, once by the First Emperor.

And Jiang Chen was the third time.

In other words, after his use this time, the part about interpreting the Merit Sutra in Daozu’s preaching would truly disappear.

Even if Jiang Chen triggered the opportunity of Daozu’s preaching again, he wouldn’t be able to hear this content, only other parts.

At this thought, Jiang Chen suddenly remembered something and quickly took out the Dao Mirror to check.

He remembered that when he was listening to the preaching, the Dao Mirror had recorded Daozu’s voice. He didn’t know whether it was successful or not.

After flipping through the Dao Mirror, Jiang Chen indeed saw a blurry great hall. Seeing this, he couldn’t help but show a smile.

The Dao Mirror was indeed helpful. With it, he could copy all the parts of Daozu’s three preachings in the Xi Huang’s legacy.

In this way, he wouldn’t have to worry about not understanding Daozu’s preaching in the future. If he didn’t understand it the first time, he would listen to it again - two times, three times, or more. He would always be able to understand it sooner or later.

Unlike the Xi Huang’s legacy, the Dao Mirror doesn’t limit the number of times he can listen to the preachings.

However, now was not a good time to review Daozu’s preachings. Having just finished listening, Jiang Chen needed some time to "digest" the content he just heard.

...

...

Moving his gaze away from the Dao Mirror, Jiang Chen turned his eyes towards the divine halo behind him. This was the Merit Gold Wheel, a supreme divine power he had realized when listening to Daozu’s preaching.

This divine ability is a method of refining, a method of protecting oneself, and a method of body refining.

With a thought in his heart, Jiang Chen took out the Sun God Staff and placed it in the center of the Merit Gold Wheel.

In an instant, the five golden wheels started to spin, carrying the power of heaven and earth, pouring into the Sun God Staff to refine it.

As the Merit Gold Wheel continued to refine, the barrier between Jiang Chen and the Sun God Staff, which had been caused by the Sunlight Bodhisattva’s refining, was slowly disappearing.

Any magic treasure that had been refined by the Merit Gold Wheel would have a closer connection with its master and would be almost impossible for others to take away.

When this divine ability is cultivated to a profound realm, even ordinary magic treasures can be refined to the level of a life-bearing magic treasure. This way, he wouldn’t have to worry about his treasures being taken away by others.

You think that’s the greatest use of the Merit Gold Wheel?

Wrong.

The greatest use of the Merit Gold Wheel is not to refine one’s own treasures, but to refine other people’s treasures.

That’s right, it’s to refine other people’s magic treasures as one’s own. It doesn’t matter whether they have a master or not, as long as they are in hand, they are mine.

This divine ability is quite domineering, even more so than a robber. However, Jiang Chen likes it. With this divine ability, why would he be afraid of not having magic treasures?

The one who created this divine ability was Honjan Daizu.

Jiang Chen seemed to understand why Honjan Daizu had so many Innate Spiritual Treasures.

Could it be that he stole them all?

Such a sin, such a sin.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen repeated "sin" twice, cutting off his disrespectful thoughts.

Honjan Daizu, how could he be subject to his criticism?

Rumble, rumble!

As the golden wheels spun, the power of heaven and earth swept along, besides refining the Sun God Staff, also entered Jiang Chen’s body, continuously tempering his flesh.

Making Merit to Refine the Body!

This was another function of the Merit Gold Wheel.

Using the power of Merit to temper the body, if it could be fully mastered, it could refine the legendary supreme physique, the Primordial Inextinguishable Body.

"Primordial" referred to Heaven and Earth, thus the Primordial Inextinguishable Body is the Heaven and Earth Immortal Body, drawing its name from the term "If Heaven and Earth do not vanish, I will not perish".

This kind of physique was terrifying just to think about. Maybe it wasn’t the strongest, but it was definitely the hardest to kill.

No, it’s completely unkillable.

If it could be killed, this physique wouldn’t be called the Primordial Inextinguishable Body.

This was one of the top physiques in Heaven and Earth. Even if one had the method to cultivate it, it would be extremely challenging to actually refine it.

Becasue, to refine this physique, what was needed was Merit, and a vast amount of it.
