I'm Dreaming of a Journey to the West

Early in the morning, Li Chen got up early and put all his belongings into the system backpack. Then he came to the place where Guanyin Bodhisattva was, ready to say goodbye to Guanyin Bodhisattva, and then go to the next battlefield - Mount Emei, which is the dojo of Samantabhadra Bodhisattva.

It had been occupied by Zhurong, the Ancestral Fire Witch, who had imprisoned Samantabhadra, one of the Four Great Bodhisattvas! The Ancestral Fire Witch and his demons had transformed Mount Emei into a sea of ​​fire, devastating all life. Although he knew little about the situation there, fate was unavoidable. Li Chen was destined to battle the Twelve Ancestral Witches!

Even if Mount Emei is truly a sea of ​​fire and swords, Li Chen must go and give it a try! It was Guanyin Bodhisattva who was meditating with her eyes closed. Li Chen didn't want to disturb the Bodhisattva's meditation, so he waited for Guanyin Bodhisattva to finish meditating.

After a while, Guanyin Bodhisattva suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes filled with fear and terror. Li Chen was startled and asked quickly, "Bodhisattva, what's wrong with you?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva suddenly opened her eyes in fear, as if she had seen something extremely terrifying while meditating just now.

"Are you planning to go to Mount Emei? Now is not the time! It's too dangerous! The situation in Mount Emei is terrifying. Flames of terrifying temperatures are burning everywhere. Not even the water in my Jade Purification Bottle can extinguish the flames of the Fire Witch. Furthermore, there are monsters born from the extremely hot lava!"

Guanyin Bodhisattva spoke with horror, observing with her Dharma Eye that the Fire Ancestral Witches were incredibly powerful. These monsters, born from the lava, were incredibly powerful, their bodies as hard as diamond, shrouded in terrifying heat. Mortals without magical powers would be reduced to ash by the molten lava as soon as they approached. Their fists were incredibly powerful, capable of crushing any enemy!

Li Chen looked at Guanyin Bodhisattva's horrified expression and was startled. He had thought he was prepared for any challenge, but now it seemed he might have underestimated the Fire Ancestral Witch's strength. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself.

Suddenly, Li Chen remembered that he had the divine power of the three Ancestral Witches in his body and that he also had the Fire Avoidance Technique from the Heaven and Earth Heart Method to protect himself. He should have no problem fighting the Ancestral Witch of Fire!

"Bodhisattva, have you forgotten that I possess the power of Gonggong, the Water God, as well as the power of the Ancestral Witch of Gold and the Ancestral Witch of Wood? I don't believe that with the power of three Ancestral Witches in me, how could I still be no match for him alone?"

Li Chen said with confidence that he believed that he had the divine power of the three ancestor witches and would definitely be able to defeat Zhurong, the ancestor witch of fire!

He knew that a battle with the Twelve Ancestral Witches was his fate, unavoidable. But he also believed that as long as he didn't give up, he would find a way to defeat them. After all, he still had a powerful system to back him up, and many friends to support him. Thinking of this, his confidence returned somewhat.

"But those powers are not the complete power of the Ancestral Witch!"

Guanyin Bodhisattva sighed deeply, her eyes revealing deep worry. She looked at Li Chen and said earnestly, "You know what? That's only a fraction of the power of the three Ancestral Witches: Gold, Wood, and Water. To truly master their power, you'll need much longer practice and understanding. If you rush for success, it could lead to unpredictable consequences. Therefore, I suggest you stay in Putuo Mountain for a while longer, practicing meditation and then, when the time is right, go to Mount Emei to battle the Ancestral Witch of Fire. That way, your chances of victory will be much greater."

Li Chen listened to Guanyin Bodhisattva's words, and a surge of gratitude welled up in his heart. He knew full well the Bodhisattva's care and love for him, but now he could no longer wait. He knelt on his knees, clasped his hands together, and expressed his resolve and faith to Guanyin Bodhisattva.

"Bodhisattva, please rest assured, I will definitely defeat them! Although the power I have obtained so far is not the complete power of the Ancestral Witch, it is enough to give me the confidence to face the next challenge. I no longer have time to rest, I must go to fight immediately. Moreover, after this period of training, my physical condition is at its best. If I don't fight now, I am afraid I will never find a better opportunity in the future. So, please forgive me for not being able to stay here for long. I must go to Mount Emei immediately to compete with the Ancestral Witch of Fire!!!"

Li Chen seemed to have made up his mind to die. He continued to explain, "If the Fire Ancestral Witch is currently cultivating in Mount Emei to recover his strength, I can't imagine how terrifying his power will be when it reaches its true peak. The only way is to defeat him now and save the lives of the people in Mount Emei! This is my only chance to defeat him!"

With that, Li Chen bowed deeply to Guanyin Bodhisattva and turned to leave. His steps were firm and powerful, as if he carried the weight of the world on his shoulders. He knew the road ahead was fraught with danger, but he remained undaunted. He believed that as long as he persevered, he would overcome all difficulties and save more people from suffering.

Guanyin Bodhisattva turned around and looked at Li Chen's determined face. A kind and satisfied smile appeared in Guanyin Bodhisattva's eyes. Li Chen's personality really resembled that of the monkey who was once reckless, impulsive, and had a strong sense of justice!

It's a pity that the monkey was killed by Tongtian! Thinking of this, Guanyin Bodhisattva's eyes were blurred with tears. She remembered the sacrifice of Tang Monk and his disciples! She didn't want Li Chen to repeat the mistakes of Tang Monk and his disciples, but for the sake of peace in the three realms, she had to send Li Chen to the battlefield!

"In that case, go ahead! Be careful on the road. The gates of Putuo Mountain are always open to you. If you encounter any danger, remember to come back. I will help you!"

Guanyin Bodhisattva, with a gentle smile, watched Li Chen leave, step by step, from Putuo Mountain. She nodded slightly, a gleam of relief in her eyes as she gazed at Li Chen's retreating figure. She silently prayed, hoping that Li Chen would successfully defeat the Fire Witch and protect all living beings.

At the same time, she also hopes that Li Chen can continue to grow in this adventure and find more secrets about the power of the ancestor witch.

Before leaving Mount Putuo, Li Chen glanced back at this majestic and sacred island. He sincerely thanked the Bodhisattva for his help and support, and vowed to fulfill his mission. With this conviction, Li Chen embarked on a new journey, heading towards Mount Emei.

Along the way, he remained vigilant, not missing any place where clues might be hidden, and taking every step carefully, for fear of missing important information.

Li Chen continued his journey towards Mount Emei, constantly helping the people eliminate the demons that had taken advantage of the great calamity to wreak havoc. Time passed, and Li Chen had already traveled to this world for nearly a year.

The seasons had changed, and winter had returned once again. However, as Li Chen continued to approach Mount Emei, the surrounding temperature did not drop, but gradually increased. Li Chen felt that he was facing a volcano with a temperature comparable to that of the sun!
