Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me-Chapter 64 Chan Teaching and Jiang Family

64 -64: Chan Teaching and Jiang Family
The wealth of the East Sea Dragon King was indicative of the opulence of the Dragon Palace.
If Jiang Chen could seize the Dragon Palace, he would no longer need to worry about resources in the future.
Regrettably, this idea could only stay as such.
The Dragon Palace was immensely profound, and the East Sea Dragon King alone could easily kill Jiang Chen with a flick of his hand.
To seize the Dragon Palace was not just audacious, it was suicidal!
……
After accepting the benefits, Jiang Chen did not wish to stay with these old fellows, watching the aquatic creatures attempt to ascend the Dragon Gate.
So, he declared, “Honorable elders, I shall take my leave.”
Having said that, Jiang Chen looked at Jiang Zixuan.
Despite the East Sea Dragon King’s kind words, without Jiang Zixuan’s consent, how could Jiang Chen dare to run amok?
Seeing this, Jiang Zixuan nodded and said, “Go ahead, exploring the Eastern Sea could be beneficial for you.”
With Jiang Zixuan’s permission, Jiang Chen did not linger.
He activated the Crossing Earth Golden Light ability, turning into a beam of golden light and disappeared.
Upon reaching the God-like state, Jiang Chen underwent a change from within, and with it, his understanding of the Crossing Earth Golden Light ability significantly increased.
His speed now covered a distance of three thousand miles in a single breath.
This speed, crossing over three thousand miles in one breath, was fairly impressive.
However, Jiang Chen was not satisfied.
He simultaneously initiated another divine ability besides Crossing Earth Golden Light, the Digging Sea Shrinking Earth!
The merge of two divine abilities triggered a spatial distortion around Jiang Chen, which dramatically increased his speed to ten thousand miles in a single breath.
Fast, incredibly fast, unbelievably fast, this was all Jiang Chen could feel at the moment.
The speed of ten thousand miles in a single breath was beyond the reach of ordinary Golden Immortals.
At this speed, Jiang Chen wouldn’t need to worry about being caught by Golden Immortals if he offended them in the future.
But then again, Jiang Chen suddenly realized that, perhaps, there was no need for him to be afraid of Golden Immortals anymore…
On second thought, Jiang Chen’s excitement diminished.
This speed wasn’t fast enough, it needed to be even faster.
Sun Wukong, with his somersault cloud, could travel 108,000 li (33,800 miles) in one jump.
He didn’t expect to rival him, but seeking nine thousand miles in a single breath shouldn’t be too much of an ask?
While thinking like this, Jiang Chen silently broke out his Tao Mirror, while pressing forward, he comprehended the Crossing Earth Golden Light ability
As for his destination?
He decided to go with the flow.
Wherever he gained understanding of the Crossing Earth Golden Light, he would stop.
….
Time flew, and in an instant, three months had passed.
Jiang Chen had been wandering above the Eastern Sea for three months, and undoubtedly, he had gotten lost again.
However, these three months weren’t entirely fruitless.
At the very least, he gained a new understanding of the Crossing Earth Golden Light, increasing his speed from three thousand miles to ten thousand miles in a single breath.
If he added his other divine ability, Digging Sea Shrinking Earth, his speed could reach forty-five thousand miles in one breath.
That was his limit.
If he wanted to further increase his speed, he had to improve his level.
….
Several days later, Jiang Chen finally sensed some vitality.
Up close, he saw three immortals chatting on the clouds.
Oh, he knew one of them.
It was none other than Master Yunyang from Aolai Nation.
For the lost Jiang Chen, seeing someone familiar was like glimpsing a lifesaver.
He hurriedly approached them, ready to greet Master Yunyang.
However, being a man who cared about face, he definitely wouldn’t admit to something embarrassing like getting lost.
Deciding to hide his previous use of the Crossing Earth Golden Light ability, he instead displayed his ability to ride the clouds, summoning a lucky cloud to lift him up, then floating towards Yunyang and the others.
“Is that you, Master Yunyang?” Jiang Chen called from afar.
“Yes it is!” Hearing someone calling his name, Yunyang quickly turned back, just to be greeted by Jiang Chen’s beaming face.
It hadn’t been long since they parted ways in Aolai Nation, so Yunyang naturally still remembered Jiang Chen.
Particularly, someone as rare and young as Jiang Chen would definitely leave a deep impression.
From the start, Yunyang didn’t think he would see Jiang Chen again after leaving Aolai Nation.
But who knew, in the vast Eastern Sea, they met again.
It was indeed a kind of destiny.
He seemed to be fated with this man!
Thinking this way, Yunyang excitedly greeted Jiang Chen, “Ah, so it is…it is…”
Despite being stuck for a long time he still couldn’t spit out Jiang Chen’s name.
How could he say it when he had no idea what Jiang Chen’s name was?
Back then, they had just exchanged greetings, who could have guessed they would meet again?
Jiang Chen didn’t even leave his name.
Unable to remember Jiang Chen’s name, Yunyang’s excited expression turned embarrassingly awkward.
He stood frozen, unsure of what to say.
Jiang Chen found Yunyang’s expression strange at first, but then he realized the cause of his embarrassment.
He had forgotten to share his name due to his haste.
On reflection, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed.
However, being thick-skinned, he didn’t take it to heart.
He laughed out loud, “I seem to have forgotten to tell my fellow Taoist about my background.
It’s my fault.”
With that, Jiang Chen composed himself, and invented a false identity out of thin air, “I am Hongchen Daoist, a loose cultivator from the mainland of Nanbuzhan.
Greetings to you all.”
It isn’t surprising that Jiang Chen did this.
The Eastern Sea wasn’t exactly welcoming toward members of the Jiang Family.
Before becoming a deity, the God Emperor Shennong was preemptive helped by the Jiejiao Sect.
Therefore, the Jiang Family had a good relationship with the Jiejiao Sect.
In the ancient times, many from the Jiang Family went to Golden Turtle Island to learn Tao from Leader Tongtian.
Naturally, the Jiang Family was classified on the side of the Jiejiao sect.
However, Jiejiao Sect had a mortal enemy, the Chan Teaching.
The loose cultivators of the Eastern Sea had the title of loose cultivator, yet the force controlling them was the awakened immortals of the Southern Pole, part of Chan Teaching.
In a sense, the Eastern Sea loose cultivators were an external force of the Chan Teaching.
For this reason, the loose cultivators of the Eastern Sea were not fond of the Jiang Family.
Although they wouldn’t attack a member of the Jiang Family, if they had the opportunity to make things difficult for them, they wouldn’t mind at all.
Compared to the Jiang Family, Chan Teaching preferred members of the Ji Family.
However, whether the Ji Family liked them or not was hard to say.
The grudges and grievances of ancient times were complex and unclear.
Jiang Chen didn’t quite understand, but he felt that the bad relationship between the Jiang Family and the Chan Teaching was likely not just because of the Jiejiao Sect.
There must have been deeper reasons.
As for what they were, Jiang Chen couldn’t access such information.
His power was still too weak, far from allowing him to reach the center of the Jiang Family’s power and discover the various secrets from ancient times.
