I'm Dreaming of a Journey to the West

"Let's go! Head to the Fahua Spirit Cave! Let's have a good meeting with Gonggong, the Ancestral Water Witch!" As Li Chen gave the order, the people behind him responded one after another, their morale high. At this point, they were ready for a fierce battle with the Ancestral Water Witch.

At this moment, Li Chen knew the time had come to launch a counterattack. The Water Ancestral Witch had already drawn his sword, which meant they had to fight back and bravely face the enemy. Otherwise, they would be trapped in an endless defensive dilemma, unable to escape the passive situation.

Li Chen and the others quickly gathered their weapons and equipment and, with resolute steps, advanced towards the Fahua Spiritual Cave. As the distance to the Fahua Spiritual Cave gradually closed, a powerful and suffocating sense of oppression grew more pronounced. The Water Ancestral Witch's control over the water element seemed to reach its peak within this expanse of water, inspiring awe.

As they advanced, silence reigned, the atmosphere tense and solemn. Everyone knew this battle was fraught with uncertainty, and no one could guarantee victory over the formidable water god who had once defeated Guanyin Bodhisattva. After all, in ancient times, the water god Gonggong battled Zhuanxu for the throne. While Gonggong ultimately lost, he rammed Mount Buzhou with incredible force, ultimately breaking the pillars of heaven and triggering a massive upheaval between heaven and earth. Later, Nuwa, unable to bear the devastation wrought upon the world, forged multicolored stones to patch up the sky, preventing the catastrophe unleashed by Gonggong.

Yet, despite facing such a formidable opponent, Li Chen and his companions showed no sign of retreating. With courage and determination, they forged ahead, ready to meet the impending challenge. Regardless of the outcome, they would give their all, fighting for their beliefs and goals. This truly demonstrates their immense strength!

"Could it be that... the Water Ancestral Witch currently in the Fahua Spiritual Cavern is not the real Water God Gonggong?"

Li Chen muttered to himself, pondering this possibility. After all, according to mythology, the Water God Gonggong was a male, yet the Water Ancestral Witch who appeared in the Fahua Spiritual Cave was a female. However, Li Chen quickly rejected this hypothesis. If it wasn't the Water God Gonggong in the Fahua Spiritual Cave, who could it be? With such powerful control over the water element?

However, this battle must be won no matter what. Because the Water Ancestor Witch flooded Putuo Mountain, the people nearby were affected by the Water Ancestor Witch's power, and countless people were killed and injured.

We can't let her go on like this, we have to stop her!

"More importantly, we need to prevent her from doing something crazy after she fails."

Li Chen frowned, recalling the historical records of Gonggong. In ancient times, Gonggong, in a dispute with Zhuanxu for the position of tribal leader, angrily struck Mount Buzhou, causing a devastating disaster.

This kind of crazy behavior is unpredictable. If the current Water Witch also has a similar personality, then once she is defeated, who knows if she will do something earth-shattering again?

Thinking of this, Li Chen's eyes became more determined. No matter what, the crisis at hand must be resolved as soon as possible to protect the safety of Mount Putuo and the surrounding creatures.

Soon, everyone arrived at the Fahua Spiritual Cave. The decoration here was much more desolate than that of the Nine Dragons Palace. The two rows of dragon pillars had countless scratches on them, and they looked extremely dilapidated! The dragon balls under the dragon pillars were also shattered and in ruins!

In the distance, behind a huge mountain, a giant figure emerged, holding a spear! It was Gonggong, the ancestor of water!

"Charge! Kill!"

Li Chen and his companions heard deafening shouts and cries of killing coming from all around them. It turned out that the demon soldiers who were guarding the Water Ancestral Witch in the Fahua Spirit Cave had discovered Li Chen and his companions, and they had thrown a welcome party for them.

The first ones to greet them were the patrolling Yakshas holding steel forks. Each of them held a fork that was shining with electric light in their hands, with ferocious expressions on their faces, and they roared as they rushed towards Li Chen and others.

Behind them was a group of shark spirits holding long knives. They kept waving their long knives, emitting bursts of knife light, trying to stop Li Chen and others from moving forward.

Behind the shark demon is a group of crab generals holding shields and swords. They are arranged closely together to form a solid line of defense.

In the distance, there were some shrimp soldiers who kept throwing flying knives, trying to restrain Li Chen and his group from a distance.

Behind the shrimp soldiers were a group of clam demons and clam maidens, each armed with a variety of weapons, ready to attack Li Chen and his companions at any moment. The most striking of these were the clam maidens, who wielded pipa instruments and played beautiful music, but in reality, it was a form of ecstasy, capable of intoxicating and captivating the senses. Furthermore, they could unleash powerful water thunder to attack Li Chen and his companions.

At the back was a group of heavily armored crab monsters, armed with spears and axes, charging aggressively towards Li Chen and his companions. These crab monsters were the elite of the aquatic species, extremely powerful, and were one of the enemies Li Chen and his companions had to face.

"God is merciful. If you leave now and promise me that you will not harm anyone again, I will let you live! Otherwise, I will kill you all!"

Li Chen watched the group of water monsters before him, their menacing threats filled with murderous intent, his heart filled with impatience and irritation. If he'd always felt that the number of minions wasn't enough when he played games in the real world, now, facing these minions, he felt nothing but immense annoyance. They were weak and prone to causing trouble; they were truly annoying!

However, these water monsters did not seem to be frightened by Li Chen's words, but instead aroused their fighting spirit.

They shouted in unison to Li Chen, "We must protect the Water Ancestral Witch. We will never let you harm him in the slightest!!!"

"Brothers! Follow me and kill them!!!"

The leader of the demon soldiers shouted at the top of his lungs, then raised his steel knife and rushed towards Li Chen fiercely. Seeing this, the other demons also tightened their grip on their weapons and rushed towards Li Chen and his group without hesitation.

Li Chen sighed helplessly, knowing a fierce battle was about to begin. He took a deep breath and prepared himself for the challenge. Although he felt a little irritated, he knew he couldn't retreat and had to defeat these soldiers before he could move on.

Li Chen raised his spear, blocked the demon leader's steel knife, and then kicked him in the chest, sending him flying! He was lying on the ground with blood gushing from his mouth, one hand covering his chest, and the other hand trying to get up from the ground, but he couldn't muster the strength!

"Damn it! Watch the trick!"

Li Chen saw that the clam maidens and clam monsters behind the demon formation suddenly moved. The clam maidens had a pipa in their hands, ready to play the ecstasy song to interfere with Li Chen and his party, while the clam monsters began to use their magic power to release powerful mines at Li Chen and his party!

The spear in Li Chen's hand suddenly changed, becoming a long staff in an instant. He summoned the power of Sun Wukong and, with a blazing flash, transformed his body into a ball of scorching flames. As if teleporting, he quickly arrived behind the demon soldiers' formation.

The rear of this formation is where the clam monsters and clam banshees are. They begin to use their magic power to prepare to attack Li Chen and his party. This is where the manpower of this formation is concentrated, and it is also the weakest link in the entire formation!

Li Chen swung his long staff in both hands, spinning it rapidly. A powerful storm of flames erupted from the staff. With just one blow, the clam monsters and clam demons were powerless to resist and fell to the ground dead.

When the demons saw that Li Chen had sneaked around their formation without anyone noticing, they were horrified and their formation was thrown into chaos.

Li Chen's entry into the formation was like a tiger pouncing on a flock of sheep or an eagle on a flock of chickens, slaughtering without restraint. Meanwhile, Fairy Hibiscus, along with the Snow Realm Divine Deer and the Golden-haired Tiger, unleashed various magical powers and spells on the periphery, launching a frenzied attack on the surrounding demons.

The formation these monsters originally arranged was to protect the clam monster and clam lady monster in the middle, allowing them to use mines to carry out large-scale bombardment. However, they never expected that Li Chen would use this method to launch a sneak attack, making it impossible for them to take care of both ends, and they could only allow Li Chen and others to kill them at will.

In this way, the demon soldier leader who had attacked Li Chen and was kicked away by Li Chen watched Li Chen and his group slaughter all his men, but he was powerless to do anything!
