Chapter 352 Hunting the Demonic Dragon
After Lu Changan visited and left.
In the Zixia Peak cave, a handsome and powerful man appeared, wearing a high crown and a loose feather robe and a large cloak. He was Zhenjun Yunlan.
"It doesn't matter if this person leaves. Yunqing is preparing to attack Nascent Soul, and there is no room for any mistakes."
Zhenjun Yunlan's tone was calm and his eyes were fixed on the direction in which Lu Changan left the mountain gate.
Xiang Dalong is not a direct lineage monk cultivated and raised by Yunxia Sect after all, and his strength is beyond ordinary alchemy cultivators.
Zhenjun Yunlan is inevitably a little wary.
Zhenjun Zixia was noncommittal, but could understand the Taoist couple's mood.
The impact of the immortal golden elixir on the Nascent Soul is actually more dangerous than that of ordinary elixir-forming monks, with a lower error tolerance rate.
Because of the profound foundation, the most critical transformation of forming a baby, "breaking the pill into a baby", the Immortal Golden Pill can basically succeed.
This means, there is no retreat!
Later Tian Lei, the demon robbery, could not cross the dead.
On the contrary, it is a true elixir overhaul with slightly lower foundation and potential. If the step of breaking the elixir into an infant fails, there is still a chance to save one's life, or even maintain the original cultivation level.
However, after the first failure to conceive a baby, subsequent shocks often lead to a lower success rate.
“Senior brother, when are you going to give Yun Qing a baby?”
Zhenjun Zixia said lazily.
Zhenren Yunqing is not only a close disciple of Zhenjun Yunlan, but also a descendant of his bloodline, but separated by many generations.
Zhenjun Yunlan said: "The baby will be born within one year."
“Are you in a hurry?”
Fairy Zixia frowned slightly.
Yunqing is not very old, so he can actually hone his skills and gain some experience.
“Yun Qing is different from other monks. He practices without distraction and pursues simplicity and return to his true nature. He is not a school that seeks to gain experience in the world.”
“What’s more important is that—senior brother has learned a little bit about the art of observing qi, and observed that the sect’s qi fortune has fluctuated over the past hundred years. Fortunately, in recent years, the sect’s qi fortune has finally stabilized, and even has a slight upward trend.”
“Yunqing has reached the peak of Jindan, which is a good opportunity to have a baby. If you miss the luck..."
Zhenjun Yunlan was very organized and told his reasons.
At the stage of Nascent Soul, success or failure not only depends on personal background and hard work, but also depends on good fortune.
Those who successfully conceive a baby have good luck.
It was precisely because he noticed the subtle changes in the sect's fortune that True Lord Yunlan chose a good and auspicious day.
…
Three months later.
The ancient forbidden land in the Central Region, on the edge of the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons.
From the cloud top of a cylindrical mountain peak, two figures appeared one after another.
In addition to Jing Wufeng who was wearing a green silk shirt, there was also a skinny old man wearing a bamboo hat.
“Fellow Daoist Xiang’s disguise props are extraordinary. If he hadn’t been informed in person, Jing would have almost mistakenly identified the wrong person.”
Jing Wufeng smiled and looked at it.
“Make Taoist friend Jing laugh.”
Lu Changan spoke in an easy-going manner and explained why:
“The demonic stone heart dragon has some origins and is not a purely wild and ownerless thing. Xiang disguised his identity out of caution.”
Jing Wufeng was thoughtful and said: "Is Fellow Daoist Xiang worried about the 'Asura Ghost Lord' who has lost his trace?"
"That's right. Although the whereabouts of that person have not been determined for nearly a hundred years, his reputation is still there."
Lu Changan affirmed.
Sura Ghost King was once a famous casual cultivator in the Yuanying stage of Dayuan. Later, he took refuge in the Ghost Palace of the Northern Territory and switched to practicing Ghost Dao techniques. He actually practiced to the middle stage of Yuanying and became a leader in his class.
This man's most famous battle was when he slightly injured the great monk Yuanying, but was seriously injured and escaped with his life.
After this, the trace was lost.
Lu Changan estimated that this person was the first level of powerhouse under the three great monks of Dayuan.
His strength is at least comparable to the level of "Lingyu Zhenjun", the son of luck in the middle region of Daqing. The latter has a record of defeating the master of the Beast King Valley.
That demonic stone-heart dragon was tamed by Shura Ghost Lord before it was demonized.
“Even if that person is not dead, his current condition is not much better. It is difficult for him to reach his peak strength, otherwise there will be no news about him.”
“However, what Fellow Taoist Xiang said makes sense, and there is nothing wrong with being cautious.”
Jing Wufeng finished speaking, took out a scroll and unfolded it slowly.
In the scroll, there are many vivid images, including men, women, old and young.
唰!
Jing Wufeng pointed his finger, and the light and shadow of a silver-haired old woman in the painting peeled off, disappeared in a flash, and fell on him.
The next moment, Jing Wufeng transformed into the image of a silver-haired old woman, with a completely different appearance, clothing, and temperament.
Lu Changan was secretly surprised that after Jing Wufeng changed his identity, he could not see any flaws.
Furthermore, Jing Wufeng listened to advice with an open mind and did not have the high self-esteem of a descendant of a large sect.
Lu Changan's advantages of being steady and prudent are something that this person knows very well.
After the two gathered together, they roughly discussed tactics.
Half an hour later, we entered the gray, dimly lit Ten Thousand Demons Valley.
On the way, Lu Changan deliberately tested Jing Wufeng’s intentions and asked him which major sect in Tianyan Continent he came from.
Jing Wufeng was very humble, claiming to be from a small and unknown sect, so it was okay not to mention it.
…
Entering the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons, the two of them slowed down a lot.
Finding the specific location of the Demonic Stone Heart Dragon is not as simple as imagined.
The Demonic Stoneheart Dragon does have a permanent lair, but it often goes out on the move.
According to the tactical plan, you must not fight in the lair of the demonic stone core dragon.
First of all, the location is deep, and the fighting skills can easily attract the prying eyes of other powerful monsters.
Secondly, there is a demonic and filthy spiritual vein in the lair.
If they fight there, the magic power of Lu Changan and the two men will be polluted and their strength will decline.
The Demonic Stone Heart Dragon has increased in strength, with continuous replenishment. It is almost immortal, and may not be able to do anything about it in the middle stage of Nascent Soul.
This is also one of the reasons why the Demonic Stone Heart Dragon has not been hunted so far. It is not only because of concern about the missing Shura Ghost Lord.
In addition, the properties of the demonized Stone Heart Dragon's Essence Pill have changed and are not suitable for most human monsters.
Instead of causing such trouble in the forbidden area, it is better to go overseas to hunt other demon kings.
Jing Wufeng’s plan is to lure the Demonic Stone Core Dragon out of its lair, set a trap in a slightly outer area, and hunt it.
One month later.
Lu Changan and his two men arrived near the lair of the demonic Stone Heart Dragon.
During the journey, I encountered many demonized monsters. After arriving near the lair, there was no sound.
“Not in it.”
Lu Changan sent a few puppets to explore, but found no trace of Shi Xinlong.
However, there is a powerful fourth-level restriction in the lair of the Demonic Stone Heart Dragon, and even formed a formation, and one of the puppets was destroyed instantly.
Lu Changan has no idea of going in to explore. If he is blocked by the demonic stone heart dragon, he will be unable to defeat or escape, and there is a risk of falling.
The two of them stayed at home for several months, and finally waited for the demonic Stone Heart Dragon to return from the trip.
Hmm~
A powerful monster aura, accompanied by a low dragon roar, approached the lair.
A demonized giant dragon that is more than twenty feet long and covered in brown and yellow scales enters the sensory field of vision, exuding the coercion of a species descended from a true dragon.
As soon as the Demonic Stone Core Dragon appeared, it entered a fighting state, setting off black and yellow flying sand and evil wind and evil energy, sweeping across a radius of twenty miles.
Previously, Lu Changan's puppet explored the lair and touched the forbidden area, and the demonized Stone Heart Dragon was naturally alert.
Shi Xinlong's powerful consciousness scanned the surroundings and quickly noticed Lu Changan and Jing Wufeng hiding.
“Run!”
Lu Changan and Jing Wufeng took up the light and ran to the outside in panic.
Boom!
At the same time, the puppets and talismans preset in the lair caused an explosion and the mountain collapsed, causing considerable destruction.
Shi Xinlong's cold pupils revealed angry murderous intent, he let out a roar and chased after the two of them.
As a descendant of a true dragon, the Demonic Stone Heart Dragon is faster than the average Nascent Soul in its early stages, but it lacks flexibility.
Due to being demonized, this Stone-Hearted Dragon does not like to turn into human form and maintains its original state of nature.
Lu Changan and Jing Wufeng both have the blessing of escape talismans of level three or above, but their speeds are still far behind.
The two of them tried their best to shuttle through the complicated ground, fighting and retreating at the same time.
The Demonic Stone Core Dragon is not a fuel-efficient lamp. When the distance is slightly closer, it will use earth magical powers.
A sky-filled storm of sand, dust, and dust swept across the sky.
Or it could be a pillar-shaped earth thorn more than ten feet high, suddenly drilled out from the ground or the mountain, which is equivalent to a fourth-level Nascent Soul level spell.
If it were an ordinary elixir-forming overhaul, he wouldn't be able to hold on for a moment and would have died long ago.
However, Lu Changan and Jing Wufeng are both existences that are beyond common sense and have the confidence to deal with and compete with the True Monarch Nascent Soul.
Jing Wufeng’s physical and magical powers are extremely weird.
His figure was hit several times by the long-range spells of the demonized Stone Heart Dragon, and turned into a shattered wind shadow.
The next moment, teleport to twenty or thirty feet away.
This kind of small-scale movement and magical power, accompanied by weak spatial fluctuations, makes Lu Changan envious, but he cannot learn it.
Even ordinary Nascent Souls would find it difficult to do this.
Lu Changan suspected that this person had an innate Taoist body of space type.
In the vast world of immortality, there are many types of innate Tao bodies, and the talents attached to them are also different.
Among them, the innate Tao body involving space is the top category.
Furthermore, Jing Wufeng's escape method is mainly based on the wind attribute, with space ability as an auxiliary. This not only consumes little money, but can also create various shadows to confuse the enemy.
If we exclude external objects such as puppets and talismans, Lu Changan is far inferior to him in terms of his ability to deal with the demonic Stone Heart Dragon.
In order to maintain their status, Lu Changan and Jing Wufeng used methods to restrain each other during the seduction process, so that they had time to recover their mana.
Lu Changan’s means of containment relied on magic weapons, puppets, and spiritual pets.
The Earth Rock Rat cast a dust storm spell, weakening the sand and dust of the Demonic Stone Heart Dragon, preventing the two of them from being entangled and reducing their speed.
If he is about to be entangled, Lu Changan will use a fourth-level puppet, a defensive magic weapon, to block it from the front.
…
Two days later, Lu Changan and his two men fell into a dense forest.
Finally arrived at the preset ambush location.
At this time, Lu Changan, Jing Wufeng, and Earth Rock Rat all suffered some external injuries, and their mana losses were considerable.
Lu Changan's Qi pulse is long, and with the recovery elixir, there won't be much of a problem.
The shell of the fourth-level puppet is slightly damaged, so puppet crystals have been added to it.
Jing Wufeng took out a suet bottle and took a sip of the Millennium Spiritual Milk. His mana instantly returned to its peak state.
“Fellow Daoist Xiang, as long as Shi Xinlong is introduced into the ‘Thousand Killing Formation’, Jing has a 70% chance of killing him.”
Jing Wufeng had laid out a spatial illusion-type killing array in advance in the dense forest and shallow void. It was more advanced than Lu Changan's fourth-level illusion array and had much stronger comprehensive capabilities.
When setting up the formation previously, Lu Changan confirmed that Jing Wufeng was still a formation master, with skills reaching the fourth level, and was good at space.
This is also the courage of this person to join forces to hunt the demonic Stone Heart Dragon.
In order for the formation to exert its power, spiritual stones alone are not enough.
Jing Wufeng also asked Lu Changan to arrange four third-level puppets, which would then be stationed at the four formation bases to provide mana supply.
Everything was ready, and the Demonic Stone Heart Dragon was successfully attracted.
But at this time, Lu Changan and his two men encountered a problem.Hmm~
The Demonic Stone Heart Dragon was wandering ten miles away in the dense forest, roaring in a low voice, seeming to be afraid, but no longer approaching.
Lu Changan and Jing Wufeng looked at each other, frowning slightly.
If it is a normal demon king with high intelligence, the success rate of this kind of ambush is very low.
The demonized Shi Xinlong has a chaotic mind and is easily blinded by killing, so Jing Wufeng used this trap plan.
“The Stone-Hearted Dragon with Tianpin bloodline contains the thin bloodline of the true spirit, has a keen sense of smell, or can detect something instinctively.”
Jing Wufeng smiled bitterly and analyzed the situation via sound transmission.
Previously, when the two escaped, they passed through many complex geographical environments, and the Demonic Stone Heart Dragon had no such scruples.
Zhizhi!
After the rock rat took the recovery elixir, he rubbed Lu Changan's body with his head.
Subsequently, one person and one mouse quickly communicated through sound transmission.
Although the rock rat has not transformed, it can understand human language, but most of the time, it does not like to communicate in alien ways.
“Are you sure you want to do this?”
Lu Changan looked at the Earth Rock Rat and said solemnly.
Jing Wufeng, who was on the side, was thoughtful, and immediately thought of a way to seduce.
“The owner does not hesitate to take risks to fight for the opportunity for the mice to transform, so the mice will naturally have to contribute.”
The Earth Rock Rat's eyes were firm and he said in a message.
"good."
Lu Changan did not dissuade him.
The rock rat's method involves certain risks, and Jing Wufeng must be careful.
Zhizhi!
The rock rat flew into the air in the woods, exuding the violent aura of the great earth demon.
Stone Heart Dragon is an earth-type dragon beast, so he resonated with it and couldn't help but look at the Earth Rock Rat.
Phew!
The Earth Rock Rat suddenly opened its mouth and spit out the third-level peak Great Pill, which was shaped like an earth-yellow ball, with some golden elixir Dao patterns dotted on the surface, and surrounded by an earthly evil aura.
The Qi of Earthly Evil is a new change that occurs after absorbing the innate turbid Qi. It can be regarded as an advancement of earth talent.
To a certain extent, the innate turbidity generated by Xuantian's fallen objects should be more suitable for earth rock rats, but more of them were swallowed up by Xuanshui turtles.
The third-order peak Great Pill in front of him exuded a homologous aura that immediately made the Demonic Stone Heart Dragon's throat throb, and its cold eyes showed movement.
The Earth Rock Rat controlled the Great Pill, hovering above the head, flying hundreds of feet, and spinning around.
“Take it back, it’s too dangerous.”
Lu Changan suddenly stopped him.
Hearing this, the Earth Rock Rat opened his big mouth, preparing to **** back his demon elixir.
Hurry!
The Demonic Stone Core Dragon roared, and suddenly flew over, reaching out with its claws to absorb the Earth Rock Rat's demon elixir.
The Taoist charm and unique aura contained in this third-level demon elixir has an indescribable temptation for it, which is beyond the demon elixir of the same level.
Intuition tells me that it is definitely a great supplement!
Just a few third-level creatures, the greedy instinct of the demonic stone heart dragon quickly defeated the little rationality.
However, as soon as the Demonic Stone Heart Dragon approached the dense forest, transparent ripples appeared in the void around it.
Buzz!
The void scene in front of him was distorted, and the huge demonic stone dragon fell into an icy starry sky.
The moment the demonized dragon pounced on the ambush circle, Jing Wufeng activated the "Thousand Killing Array in the Phantom Sky" in time.
The Demonic Stone Core Dragon ignored the formation ambush and continued to pounce on the Earth Rock Rat following the inertia of its sense of smell.
Chichizi!
In the void, transparent silver traces of light appeared, like invisible fishing nets, full of toughness, binding and blocking the body of the stone dragon.
In an instant, Shi Xinlong's speed was greatly reduced, thin marks were drawn on the surface of his body, and some blood oozed from the abdominal area.
Taking this opportunity, the Earth Rock Rat re-inhaled the Great Pill into his body, and with the assistance of the Illusion Sky Formation, he stepped dozens of feet in one step, widening the distance.
…
“This dragon’s body is really strong!”
Inside the Fantasy Formation, Lu Changan and Jing Wufeng looked at each other.
The fourth-level Huankong Thousand Killing Formation contains some space power in its killing power.
For body protection aura, magic weapon defense can break through the defense faster.
Generally, in the early stage of Nascent Soul, when encountering such an ambush, if there is no way to quickly break the formation, they will be scraped into blood in a short time.
However, the killing methods of this formation can only cause a few flesh wounds to the demonized Stone Heart Dragon.
“Fellow Daoist Xiang, please wear down your energy first.”
Jing Wufeng was not in a hurry and held out a silver dagger as thin as paper and translucent.
It is his magic weapon [Wukong Knife].
When refining this sword, precious space treasure materials were smelted.
——
Lu Changan caught the strange sound in the shallow layer of the void, and the [Wukong Knife] briefly disappeared from his senses and consciousness.
He felt awe-inspiring and smelled a hint of threat.
The next moment, the silver dagger passed over the neck of the demonic stone heart dragon, blood spattered, leaving a half-foot-deep wound.
For Stone Heart Dragon, a wound of this degree is still not fatal, but it really breaks the defense and hurts the flesh and blood.
But the previous fighting techniques and various attacks only caused superficial damage to Shixinlong.
Stone Heart Dragon felt the threat, roared, its aura surged, the dragon scales on its body trembled, a stone-patterned light film swayed, and its body expanded again.
Pengchi!
The dozens of silver streaks of light that restrained the Demonic Stone Core Dragon had not yet been woven into a web. They were forcibly broken free, broken inch by inch, and annihilated in the void.
Suddenly, the illusory starry sky where the formation was located shook unsteadily, and a few cracks opened, revealing the blurry scene of the dense forest outside.
“Fellow Daoist Xiang, limit it!”
Jing Wufeng was distracted in controlling the formation and transmitted the message.
Lu Changan did not give in, knowing that the demonic Stone Heart Dragon only had a short burst.
He asked the fourth-level puppet, the green-armored man, to turn into a ten-foot-long puppet and restrain Shi Xinlong from the front.
The eyes of the fourth-level puppet lit up with green ghost flames, flashing with the light of wisdom.
It has the consciousness of Wei's puppet master and does not need Lu Changan's distracted control.
The blue-armored puppet is surrounded by the green iron wind, integrating offense and defense. It relatively nimbly jumps onto the back of the demonic stone heart dragon. It looks like a zombie's hard iron arm, swings it up fiercely, and beats it violently.
If it's one-on-one, even if the blue-armored puppet reaches level 4, it would still be overestimating its capabilities.
But at this moment, the Demonic Stone Heart Dragon was trapped in a fourth-level formation and was attacked by many people.
Lu Changan offered up a braided rope of a high-grade thunder magic weapon. It sizzled with thunder and lightning, and turned into a thunder whip of more than ten feet.
The thunder whip is so agile that it flashes with a "swish" and strangles the demonized dragon's neck.
Lu Changan took the secret amplification elixir beforehand, and his mana surged to the limit of the golden elixir stage.
The advantage of dual cultivation of magic and body allows him to not only supply thunder whip magic weapon with magic power, but also provide powerful support.
As a top-grade trapping magic weapon, you don’t have to worry about being broken by the demonic Stone Heart Dragon.
Zizzi!
The petrified dragon's neck scales emitted plumes of black smoke, and the evil spirit was restrained by the power of thunder.
The demon dragon's body circled violently, with terrifying force, accompanied by the black and yellow wind, trying to shake Lu Changan and the fourth-order puppet away.
Fortunately, the strength of Lu Changan and the puppets has improved compared to the past.
A few breaths of work.
Lu Changan was in pain from the tiger's mouth. He teamed up with the fourth-level puppet, but he was still unable to suppress the petrified demon heart dragon that exploded.
“Well done!”
At this time, Jing Wufeng once again controlled the illusory sky formation, re-condensing the transparent silver streaks of light, turning them into an invisible net, binding Shi Xinlong's abdomen and body.
Lu Changan's pressure was greatly reduced, and the pain and numbness in the tiger's mouth became lighter.
The three of them worked together to restrain the head, abdomen and torso of Shixinlong, but its tail was still swinging and flapping.
Lu Changan gave the least stressful part to the rock rat and black water turtle.
Zhizhi!
The Earth Rock Rat was covered in explosive hair, and its body swelled to two feet. It was covered with crystal yellow stone light. It slipped from the back of the Stone Heart Dragon, took out a magic weapon iron chain newly made by its owner, and wrapped it around its tail.
In order to win the opportunity to transform, the Earth Rock Rat also worked hard, consuming his essence, blood and vitality, and his strength exploded, approaching the level of a fourth-level puppet.
The Xuanshui turtle's head is shrunk in the turtle shell, and it uses the mutated [Xuanming Heavy Water] magical power from a distance.
咵～
The deep and heavy water **** merged in mid-air, turning into a dark and cold ring of water, entangling the demonized dragon's tail.
Xuanshui Turtle absorbs more innate turbid air, and the heavy water magical power produced by the mutation is also powerfully corrosive.
Due to the huge gap in cultivation, its only method at this time is to assist the Earth Rock Rat.
While keeping a distance and retracting his head into the turtle shell, Lu Changan was not worried about it being killed instantly by the aftermath of the attack.
The Xuanshui turtle's bloodline level has reached the heavenly level. The defense of its turtle shell is comparable to that of the earth rock rat's body at the peak of the third level, and its spell resistance is even stronger.
Because the turtle was not old enough, Lu Changan once gave up the idea of taking its pieces to create a divination artifact.
…
“Fellow Daoist Xiang, keep it in this state and suppress it!”
Seeing that the situation was stable, Jing Wufeng breathed a sigh of relief and controlled the [Wukong Knife] again, occasionally hitting the critical points of the Demonic Stone Heart Dragon.
Unfortunately, the Demonic Stone Heart Dragon reacted quickly and closed its eyes, failing to damage its eyeballs.
With the help of the fourth-level illusionary thousand-kill formation, Lu Changan, Jing Wufeng, fourth-level puppets, and two spiritual pets joined forces to completely restrain and suppress the demonic Stone Heart Dragon.
The head, abdomen, trunk, and tail have clear divisions of labor.
“It should be stable, just be careful of this dragon’s counterattack.”
After a while, Lu Changan murmured.
Before the words were spoken, a sudden change occurred.
The trapped demon Stone Heart Dragon's crystal yellow eyes filled with evil energy flashed with a cold light.
The stone heart and essence elixir inside his body are surging, emitting strange fluctuations.
咻!
His crystal yellow eyes, with their ethereal stone light, locked onto the erratic Jing Wufeng.
“Not good! It actually understood...”
Jing Wufeng looked at him, his heart pounding, and an indescribable feeling of stiffness extended from his mind to his whole body.
Phew!
In the black and yellow flying sand wind, Jing Wufeng's elegant green-shirted figure suddenly froze, and a layer of khaki rock color quickly spread across his body.
“Petrified magical power!”
Lu Changan had no time to worry about Jing Wufeng, and suddenly felt a warning sign!
A feeling of numbness on the scalp came to my mind.
Hmm～
The Demonic Stone Core Dragon opened its mouth, turned its head and spit out a ball of twisted and deep dark yellow dragon flames, heading straight for Lu Changan who was closest to its dragon head.
The distance is close and the speed is too fast!
Even though Lu Changan was always on guard, he still had no time to dodge.
Huff!
The dark yellow dragon flame contains the essence and true fire of the Stone Heart Dragon. It even has super-level lethality, and ordinary Nascent Soul cannot stop it.
Without even thinking about it, Lu Changan instantly took out the two fourth-level talismans he had been guarding for a long time in his sleeves!
In reality, it’s a bit troublesome, and it’s been stuck recently, so the update is unstable.
Fortunately, the matter is almost solved.
It’s not a trivial matter. My wife had her second child aborted and she couldn’t stop it.
They hired a nanny to cook and do housework for her, and promised to pay her annual rent as salary. She also felt insecure and had to impose more conditions.
I don’t want to get used to it. It doesn’t matter whether I have a second child or not. A daughter is more convenient for me to lie down. The main reason is that my parents have repeatedly requested me.
