I'm Dreaming of a Journey to the West

Chapter 111 Climb the Golden Summit and fight against the demons!

Li Chen and the Fire-Eating Poison Scorpion continued forward until they finally saw a mountain that towered into the clouds at the end of the road. The highest point of the mountain pierced straight into the clouds, as if its deepest point was the sky!

At the highest point, looming, there was an incomparably gigantic figure. That enormous figure was extremely ferocious and terrifying, looking down upon the countless beings beneath him like an ancient demon god.

"Fire-eating Poison Scorpion, the power of you and the Fire Ancestral Witch is fire. You can't have the upper hand against him. You should go back to the system warehouse first!" Li Chen said.

After saying that, a strange golden light enveloped the whole body of the Fire-Eating Poison Scorpion at an extremely fast speed. In just a moment, the Fire-Eating Poison Scorpion disappeared beside Li Chen, and she returned to Li Chen's pet backpack to rest!

Li Chen began to climb the Golden Summit Cloud Sea alone. This Golden Summit Cloud Sea, because it was closest to the Fire Ancestral Witch, received the most powerful flame power, so the surrounding temperature was very high! Even though Li Chen was now in the Fusion Stage, he still felt a wave of heat coming towards him, making him a little breathless.

Li Chen took a deep breath, adjusted his breathing, and then walked towards the top of the mountain step by step. With each step, he could feel the ground beneath his feet trembling slightly, as if reminding him of the danger ahead.

As he continued to climb, the surrounding environment became increasingly hot. The air was filled with a scorching heat, making it feel suffocating. Li Chen's sweat continued to flow down, soaking his clothes. But he did not stop, and continued to move forward towards the top of the mountain with determination.

During his climb, Li Chen encountered some difficulties. In some places, the path was steep and blocked by flames, requiring careful climbing; in others, it was covered with boiling lava, requiring careful avoidance. However, with his tenacious perseverance and agility, he successfully overcame these obstacles.

However, along the way, Li Chen's strength and willpower had already surpassed what ordinary people could imagine! After unremitting efforts, Li Chen finally reached the top of the mountain. At this moment, his body was drenched in sweat, and sweat even dripped into his eyes and mouth!

Standing here, he could clearly see the distant scenery. The clouds in the sky were dyed a bright red, as if they were burned by a raging fire. Not far from the Golden Summit Sea of ​​Clouds, several peaks were faintly visible, hidden in the red clouds. From this point, the entire Emei Mountain was immersed in a fiery red atmosphere.

Li Chen stood on the mountaintop, looking down, his eyes filled with shock and terror. Mount Emei was engulfed in flames, a scene resembling a purgatory. Blazing flames and surging lava spread across the mountain, the lingering heat scorching the summit. The volcanic rock-paved road had been scorched a fiery crimson, like a passage to hell.

In this extreme environment, the creatures of Mount Emei suffered a devastating disaster, and all things were plunged into dire straits and on the brink of destruction. The source of all this trouble, the terrifying ancient demon god Fire Ancestral Witch, was right in front of them. In this battle, Li Chen must defeat him!

Suddenly, a tremendous roar shattered the silence. Li Chen whipped his head around to see a group of demons guarding the Golden Summit Cloud Sea leaping from the scalding lava. They varied in form: some radiated scorching heat like lava demons, others blazed like firebirds, and still others resembled monkey demons imbued with the evil aura of the Fire Witch. These demons, wielding a variety of weapons, advanced menacingly towards Li Chen.

Facing this menacing horde of demons, Li Chen felt an invisible pressure bearing down on him. He knew this was a life-or-death struggle, a single misstep could lead to his utter destruction. His heartbeat quickened, his breathing became rapid, but he remained steadfast, unflinching. He knew there was no escape. Behind him lay a cliff, a thousand feet high. One misstep and a fall would surely shatter him. At this moment, he faced the enemy with all his might, summoning his courage to face the enemy.

Li Chen took a deep breath and, with a flick of his hands, conjured his own weapon—an iron rod gleaming with a mysterious light. He gripped the rod tightly, his eyes revealing a resolute and determined look. He stared intently at the demons, bracing himself for their attack.

When the demons saw Li Chen had taken out his weapons, they rushed towards him without a word! They bared their fangs and claws, their faces ferocious, as if they wanted to devour Li Chen alive. However, Li Chen was not intimidated by their momentum, but instead aroused his inner fighting spirit.

"Flamestorm!" Li Chen shouted, and the iron rod in his hand instantly burst into flames, transforming into a blazing fire. He spun the rod at an extremely fast speed, and instantly, flames and violent winds danced around him, forming an impenetrable flaming tornado. The blazing flames and violent winds drove back all the demons, preventing them from getting even a step closer.

Seeing they couldn't get close to Li Chen, the demons launched long-range attacks. The lava demons spewed hot lava from their mouths towards him, the monkey demons threw flaming darts at him, and the firebirds engaged in guerrilla warfare with him in the air. Whenever Li Chen attacked them, they flew higher, and whenever he didn't, they flew down, trying to attack him.

Facing these ranged attacks, Li Chen showed no fear. He wielded his iron rod with both hands, sending flying lava, darts, and everything else flying away. He also harnessed the might of his fiery storm to repel the approaching demons. For a moment, sparks flew, the wind howled, and the battle was intense.

However, as time went on, Li Chen began to feel his strength wear thin. After all, he needed to constantly use his skills to fend off the demons' attacks, which consumed a great deal of his physical strength and mana. Just then, a cunning firebird suddenly swooped down, taking advantage of Li Chen's unpreparedness and slashing at his back with its sharp claws. Li Chen stumbled forward in pain, but he didn't stop, swinging his iron rod to fend off the other demons' attacks.

"It seems that I can only use magic weapons." Li Chen thought to himself.

As Li Chen finished speaking, a string of Buddhist beads appeared in his hand. This string of Buddhist beads flashed with mysterious light and emitted powerful magical fluctuations.

Li Chen clasped his hands together and muttered something. Then, he offered the Devil Wish Buddha Beads to the demons.

The Devil's Wish Buddha Beads shattered instantly, transforming into chains gleaming with golden light. These chains, like spirit snakes, quickly coiled around the demons.

The demons were bound tightly by chains and could not move. They struggled in fear but could not break free from the chains.

The chains tightened, and the screams and wails of the demons echoed through the Golden Summit's sea of ​​clouds. Blood began to flow from their bodies as the tightening chains tightened. Their mana and physical strength steadily drained away, and their struggles gradually diminished. As the final chain emitted a brilliant light, their bodies began to dissipate into tiny starbursts.
