Chapter 377 Earth Mother's Mysterious Chapter: Demon Refining Tree, Demon Dragon Tree Heart

The dragon blood vine demons on the outer perimeter still had a tempering effect on him, but it was no longer worth staying there for further meditation.

If the Black Heaven Talisman Lord were to come to Fengzhou, the Ice Demon Child's identity would be exposed to him. Fortunately, this identity is regarded by the world as a Nascent Soul Old Monster.

Although he also practices the Ice Dao, he is passionate about the art of human alchemy.

They are generally considered to be rogue cultivators who came from the territory of the Refining Heaven Demon Sect, since the most famous motto of the Refining Heaven Demon Sect is... Refining people, refining demons, and even refining heaven!

They claim that everything can be refined.

The Ice Demon Child and Wang Yu's true form share only a few similarities in their characteristics, making it highly unlikely that anyone could guess who they are.

After making up their minds, they ventured deep into Dragonfall Valley.

Using the ice-melting technique and the invisibility spell simultaneously, one can infiltrate deep into the core of the valley from high altitude, but it is difficult to ascertain the situation underground.

Therefore, Wang Yu chose the right path he had explored countless times over the past year, advancing from the entrance at the tip of the dragon's tail, even if it was a little slower.

But it is safer.

His forte has always been stealth and concealment. While he may lack in other areas, he is undoubtedly a master when it comes to stealth.

in this way.

Maintaining a low-altitude, floating state with his feet off the ground, he slowly descended into the Fallen Dragon Valley, his divine sense transforming into strands of silk that entered the earth. He couldn't remember which ancient text he had read about it in.

Nine out of ten treasures are underground.

Dragonfall Valley fits this description. With his divine sense guiding him and his familiarity with the route, he arrived at the middle section of Dragonfall Valley in just half a day.

The area near the abdomen.

This is the core area, which is slightly larger than the outside, but it is far from being vast. The valley is barren and devoid of vegetation.

The soil was also the kind of hard, compacted, almost sandy soil.

After his divine sense penetrated more than twenty meters downwards, Wang Yu was shocked to find countless dragon blood vines intertwined underground, writhing like mating snake balls.

It forms a vast underground layer of vines.

It also resembles an underground forest.

Wang Yu initially thought that the opportunity mentioned by Blood Axe might be something like the core of a fourth-tier Dragon Blood Vine Demon, or something like an "ant queen".

This strange sight reminded Wang Yu of an ancient monster.

—Dragon Blood Demon Tree!

Dragonfall Valley has a legend that a top-tier dragon beast once perished here, so it's not surprising that a species like the Dragon Blood Demon Tree would grow here.

This kind of monster, a single tree is a forest.

Those dragon blood vine demons are likely just offspring that have separated from it, drawing nutrients from the earth's veins to grow continuously. Because the main body is too powerful, the offspring cannot grow into a tree.

However, it can continue to split until the earth vein it is rooted in reaches its maximum capacity. Since it is a demon tree, it naturally needs to eat flesh.

When the main body cannot move.

These vine demons are predatory tentacles, so they look like mass-produced Tier 3 peaks, but in essence they are still part of the Dragon Blood Demon Tree.

Based on this inference of the original body's strength, it might not be able to defeat it at the early stage of the fourth rank, and it is highly likely to be a demon tree at the middle stage of the fourth rank. This thing is indeed an opportunity.

However, with Wang Yu's current strength, it would be difficult for him to win the battle, let alone obtain this opportunity. No wonder the early Nascent Soul cultivators mentioned in the intelligence report all retreated.

Playing on the opponent's home turf is a huge disadvantage.

He also began to consider retreating.

"The Dragon Blood Demon Tree is rooted in the earth's veins and is almost impossible to move. Perhaps we could try other methods to deal with this kind of target."

With these thoughts in mind, Wang Yu quickly raised his body.

Of all the methods he possessed, the Ice Dragon Flame was the most advantageous against the Dragon Blood Demon Tree, as fire overcomes wood. If he could completely ignite the Fallen Dragon Valley...

In this environment, the opponent will be greatly suppressed. At this time, using the Yellow Springs Grudge Puppet will increase the chances of winning.

To achieve this, we need to think of a way.

His magical power might not be enough, and he couldn't instantly cover the entire Fallen Dragon Valley with the Ice Dragon Flame. If the Dragon Blood Demon Tree were given the opportunity...

Give it time to pull its roots out of the earth's veins, and it will go from being a target to a hunter, becoming very difficult to deal with.

After leaving Dragonfall Valley.

Wang Yu began searching through the storage rings of the hundreds of Core Formation cultivators he had hunted down some time ago. Although these cultivators were not very strong, their combined wealth had given him quite a few spirit stones.

There are even more spiritual objects and magical treasures of all kinds.

This involves selecting and categorizing items one by one.

The Ice Dragon Flame melted part of the natal magic weapon, refined and restored some material essence, and then incorporated it into some spiritual objects.

Wang Yu began to arrange a feng shui layout around the core of Fallen Dragon Valley, using the compound spiritual liquid as ink.

In the four chapters of the Earth Mother Sutra.

The "Secret Chapters of Feng Shui Techniques", "The Golden Eyes of Qi Observation", and "Detailed Explanation of Dragon Binding and Pulse Fixation" will all play a crucial role in this operation.

The Golden Eyes of Qi can observe the direction of the earth's veins.

The secret arts of Feng Shui can be used to create extraordinary Feng Shui formations.

The detailed explanation of "Binding the Dragon and Stabilizing the Veins" can help Wang Yu sever the connection between the Dragon Blood Demon Tree and the earth veins, cutting off its ability to absorb the earth vein energy to fight against the Ice Dragon Flame.

This kind of complex knowledge was something Wang Yu had previously found difficult to acquire.

However, he had been studying the Earth Mother Scripture for some years, and although he rarely studied it, he was steadily improving and had almost reached the minor mastery level.

To devise a plan and scheme against a target at any cost.

I have gained some insights.

If one could look down from above, one would discover the massive feng shui array that Wang Yu had set up, which enveloped the entire Fallen Dragon Valley at a great cost.

The core area is even more complex and mysterious.

The lineage of geomancers and the art of formations have always been closely linked, hence they can also be called feng shui formation masters, but they take an unorthodox and unconventional path.

It relies entirely on the power of mountains and rivers, and requires a certain amount of time to accumulate before it can exert its effect, unlike formations which can unleash their full power as soon as they are set up.

At key locations, Wang Yu separated portions of the Ice Dragon Flame to serve as focal points, setting up a total of 360 such points of attack.

All the previous spoils of war were included in the purchase.

in this way.

Several months after the feng shui formation was completed.

"Success or failure hinges on this!"

Launching an attack on the Dragon Blood Demon Tree was extremely risky, and external pressure forced him to do so.

If he can break through to the fourth level of body refinement, his chances of entering the Endless Ice Plains will be even greater. That is a first-class dangerous place, and it is difficult to survive there for a long time without some special skills.

This time, they didn't care about disturbing the true form of the Dragon Blood Demon Tree.

Wang Yu then charged directly into the air, flying to the top of Fallen Dragon Valley and unleashing a Yellow Spring Great Handprint that struck the core area. This was the first time he had used this divine power at full strength after it had reached perfection.

As its magical power was depleted, a turbid yellow palm print nearly a kilometer long was formed.

He slammed the slap down.

In an instant, the already fragile ground was completely shattered, and countless vines danced wildly, like the legendary Jianmu tree reaching straight to the sky.

These vine-like demonic branches coalesced into a giant pillar, shattering the Yellow Springs Great Handprint, and extended towards Wang Yu's main body with extreme speed.

The Yellow Spring Demon Sword shot out from the sea of ​​qi, its sword aura rampant.

The Asura's killing intent amplified it, forming a sharp, red and yellow giant sword that sliced ​​through the vines like tofu, turning them into pieces. In an instant, black and green stems rained down from the sky.

Dragon blood was spilled, and blood rained down.

Wang Yu could not stand waste. The Taiyin Nourishing Coffin opened not far away, drawing all the blood into the coffin to be used as material for cultivating zombies.

After a dozen or so breaths, the Dragon Blood Demon Tree finally awoke. The earth cracked, and a giant tree with a diameter of over 500 meters and a canopy that blotted out the sky rose from the ground.

Its shape resembles a banyan tree, with vine-like offshoots hanging down from the crown, and dragon-head-shaped flower stamens emitting beams of blood-red light that attacked Wang Yu.

There are nine wooden dragon heads growing on the trunk itself.

At the same time, an attack was also launched.

"Mid-stage fourth tier!"

At this moment, Wang Yu was completely certain of his opponent's strength.

With a wave of the hand.

The still dilapidated Netherworld Grudge Puppet appeared before him. This thing was difficult to refine, slow to repair, and extremely expensive to use each time.

But their strength is truly impressive.

—The Evil World Spear of the Underworld!

This time, both arms detached from the body, transforming into two bone spears. One spear pierced the Dragon Blood Tree Demon's body from a different angle, while the other spear danced with swirling patterns, with the turbid flow of the Yellow Springs moving along with the spear shaft.

He absorbed all the attacks formed by the crimson light pillars, demonstrating that Wang Yu's experience in controlling the Yellow Springs Grudge Puppet had become increasingly rich with each battle.

In the past, this would definitely not have been possible.

At the same time.

Wang Yu threw the feng shui compass into the air, instantly establishing a connection with the feng shui wonders that had been accumulating for months, temporarily cutting off the earth's vein energy outside of Falling Dragon Valley.

Hundreds of pale white pillars of fire shot angrily into the sky.

It is the Ice Dragon Crimson Flame!

The accumulated power of heaven and earth over this period of time pushed the Ice Dragon Flame to its limit, and the sea of ​​fire instantly engulfed the entire Fallen Dragon Valley, with the interior being the primary target area.

What appeared to be a frozen wasteland was actually a raging inferno, causing the Dragon Blood Demon Tree to wail in agony, especially its offspring, which were almost completely incinerated by the fire.

Furthermore, with the earth's vein energy severed, the Dragon Blood Demon Tree temporarily lost its strongest advantage in endurance, and was suppressed by both extreme cold and extreme heat.

Its power has been greatly reduced.

However, it should not be underestimated.

A head-on confrontation.

The tree trunk, pierced by the spear of the Yellow Springs Evil World, produced a piercing metallic clang. The trunk was only partially dented before the wooden dragon's head extended out and bit it off.

The nine wooden dragon heads looked as if nine wooden dragons had grown out of them.

Some rushed towards the Yellow Springs Grudge Puppet, some towards Wang Yu's main body, and some towards the second Evil World Spear!

Upon seeing this, Wang Yu's expression changed slightly.

"The Cursed Sword of the Underworld Burial Site!"

One of the most powerful moves of the Earth Grudge Puppet is a sweeping attack that uses the spine of the Yellow Spring Demon Bone as a sword, shattering the air and the three wooden dragons with a deafening roar.

The valley was filled with ice dragon flames under Wang Yu's control.

Using the Ice Dragon Technique, they transformed into ice dragons and flames, burning the remaining six wooden dragons to ashes and freezing them into ice blocks, which then shattered into countless fragments.

They seemed to have the upper hand.

However, the Dragon Blood Demon Tree was full of vitality, and nine lush wooden dragons grew back from the broken part of the trunk in just half a breath!

"Boom—"

With a loud bang, the wooden dragon's speed suddenly increased, blasting the Yellow Springs Grudge Puppet into the rocks, and a blood-red beam of light mixed with emerald spiritual light swept over again.

Even though Wang Yu used the Aurora Escape Technique to dodge, he still couldn't avoid it.

He crashed into the ground again, the delicate spiderweb-like cracks spreading continuously. Amidst the endless dust, Wang Yu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and unleashed the Soul-Destroying Death Ray.

As the gray death ray shot out, the freezing mirror flew high into the air.

The moment the attack was applied simultaneously, even the Dragon Blood Demon Tree froze for a moment. Taking advantage of this opportunity, countless black ice chains burning with Ice Dragon Flame wrapped around the trunk.

The binding spell patterns spread rapidly.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the Yellow Springs Grudge Puppet flew into the air, manifesting the shape of the Yellow Springs River with every move, and suddenly swept towards the Dragon Blood Demon Tree.

"Buzz—"

The emerald green light shone once more, this time affecting the demon tree itself, and a demonic eye nearly three zhang long opened on the tree trunk.

A quick glance around.

All the ice chains collapsed in an instant, and countless phantom branches sprouted from the Yellow Springs River, which were then crushed.

Wang Yu sensed something was wrong.

The Illusionary Mist Ice Mirror stood in front of him, absorbing all the strange eye curse technique it had cast. Before it could rebound, it exploded on the spot, sprouting a dragon blood vine demon.

It combines parasitism and incantation techniques.

It must be some kind of supernatural power!

"That's too strong."

Even after being weakened, the Dragon Blood Demon Tree still managed to cause him to suffer repeated setbacks, and he couldn't even truly inflict serious damage on it.

This demonstrates the strength of someone at the mid-stage of the fourth tier.

There was absolutely no hope of winning.

Seeing the vine demon that had grown out of the spot being burned by the rapidly approaching Ice Dragon Flame, Wang Yu realized that if he really wanted to kill the Dragon Blood Tree Demon, he still had to rely on this fourth-order spirit flame.

Its innate attributes dictate that even if it is a small realm lower than the Dragon Blood Demon Tree, it can still suppress this tree.

On a sudden impulse, he summoned the puppet back to his side.

Round Two – Let the Fight Begin!

This time, Wang Yu will not offer any assistance.

The Yellow Springs Grudge Puppet fought with the Dragon Blood Demon Tree, while its main body flew into the sky and landed in a much larger feng shui plate, which is equivalent to a geomancer's natal magic weapon.

He wanted to try using the feng shui secrets in the Earth Mother's Mysterious Chapter.

Reverse the Five Elements.

By compressing the wood in this place to its extreme and increasing the position of the fire element in the Five Elements, this operation will naturally be aided by heaven and earth. This is the most mysterious aspect of the art of feng shui.

Human effort can alter the soil's fertility and reverse the celestial order, bringing good or bad fortune.

With the infusion of magical power, mysterious golden characters flew out from the feng shui compass and disappeared into the five directions and five elements.

Wang Yu flicked blood from his five fingers off the array plate.

Then, thrust in again forcefully.

Like turning a lever, it reversed the pattern of Fallen Dragon Valley. The wood element was suppressed to the bottom, while the fire element soared to its peak. As a result, endless fire element energy began to gather in the world.

This made the Ice Dragon Flame seem as if it had taken some kind of powerful tonic.

The flames suddenly surged to a height of ten feet.

The core area was completely covered by pale white flames, causing the Dragon Blood Demon Tree to tremble. Its canopy, which blocked out the sky, had become a breeding ground for the flames.

Its vitality is rapidly waning.

This led to a decrease in the recovery speed. At this moment, the Yellow Springs Wraith Puppet, which had been suppressed, suddenly rose up and wielded the Burial Bone Curse Sword, slicing through the weakened wooden dragon in a few swift strokes.

He leaped close and the giant skeletal sword pierced the trunk of the demon tree, causing it to bleed profusely!

The thick, red dragon's blood flowed like a fountain.

Upon realizing his success, Wang Yu once again employed his Feng Shui secrets, suppressing the four positions of the Five Elements and making the Fire position the sole dominant one. This action further weakened the Dragon Blood Demon Tree.

However, he himself also suffered considerable trauma.

Her face turned deathly pale.

Feng shui techniques also have side effects; otherwise, they wouldn't be called such techniques. After all, human strength is finite, and it's impossible to change the natural order of things without any consequences.

Wang Yu was already mentally prepared for this.

Even if his later years are unlucky, it's still a long way off.

They finally gained the upper hand.

The minor internal injuries did not stop Wang Yu; the feng shui compass creaked and groaned, as if it had reached its limit.

The star tracker on it began to rotate.

Wang Yu once again used his essence and blood as a guide, mobilizing the power of the [Yinghuo] star, one of the celestial constellations, and projected it downwards.

In this way, the advantage is completely secured.

With both favorable timing and location, the extreme power unleashed by the Ice Dragon Flame was far more terrifying than what Wang Yu could unleash himself, demonstrating his full strength.

The current situation is so dire that it only needs a change in personnel to completely solidify the situation.

In the field.

As the firestorm swept through, the roots of the Dragon Blood Demon Tree broke off in large areas. It had pulled itself out of the ground, even though it was difficult for a plant to awaken its spiritual intelligence after becoming a demon.

However, the instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm also exists. The damage caused by the environment is too great, making it eager to leave the soil where it has lived for countless years.

How could Wang Yu possibly comply?

Under the control of his mind, the Yellow Springs Grudge Puppet suddenly launched an attack, using the Burial Bone Curse Sword as a club to slam it down hard, forcefully pushing the Dragon Blood Demon Tree back into the pit.

at this time.

The Ice Chain Binding Spell, combined with the Ice Dragon Flame, was cast again, making the demon tree's struggles even more difficult.

The puppet's Yellow Spring Handprint was even more powerful, and the feeling of destroying all laws completely broke through the tough bark of the demon tree, tearing off a part of its trunk.

After being struck twice, the demon tree collapsed to the ground with a crash.

Through the wound.

Wang Yu's eyes suddenly lit up; he saw the opportunity.

"—The Demon Dragon Tree Heart?!"

This thing must be the spiritual object that can help him break through his cultivation level. Its vigorous vitality and dragon blood essence can help him take the most crucial step.

The opportunity that Blood Axe mentioned is probably this.

As an ancient tree spirit, this thing must have lived for countless years to be able to nurture a demon dragon tree heart.

"Blood Axe really thinks highly of me, actually pointing out such an opportunity. If I'm not able to defeat it, won't I become food for the demon tree?"

It would be more reasonable to view this as a trial.

When the Yellow Springs Grudge Puppet was born, Blood Axe should have known about it, since it was a trump card that Wang Yu had refined in the Blood Abyss.

Similarly.

If he wins, it will prove that he has the ability to sit at the table and eat. Wang Yu estimated that he should first condense his nascent soul before coming to Falling Dragon Valley.

With his strength and the combined power of his puppets, defeating the demon tree would not be difficult, as the Ice Dragon Flame's restraining power is still very strong.

If you come to Dragonfall Valley first, it will be hellish difficulty.

It can only be accomplished by using tricks. This level of feng shui magic is completely useless against other Nascent Soul cultivators or transformed demon kings.

To achieve the feat that Taki Yiran did back then.

First, there needs to be a ready-made ingenious plan for him to use; the one he set up himself was too poor. Secondly, there's the level of the Earth Mother Scripture; the cost of using ingenious moves is too high.

Therefore, in terms of actual combat strength, he is far from being a match for someone in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, let alone facing the Nine Evil Sword Lord in the late-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

A multitude of thoughts flashed through my mind.

Wang Yufei descended.

The Dragon Blood Demon Tree is not dead yet, it has only been suppressed, but it has lost most of its means and ability to resist, as well as the wood dragons and vine demons that have grown from it.

They wouldn't even be able to touch him before being burned to ashes by the Ice Dragon Flame.

He wants to harvest the heartwood from the tree while it's still alive!
