"Of course!"
Jin Shanshan nodded his little head, "That drop of Hongmeng Spring water successfully helped me advance from childhood to maturity! Now of course I can speak like a human!"
Jiang Deng checked the aura around Jin Shanshan and was slightly surprised.
Jin Shanshan's strength has made great progress from the initial Jindan stage to the middle stage of Yuanying stage!
The speed of his advancement is even faster than hers. No wonder he can withstand the breath of the fire-swallowing red dragon.
Although it has entered maturity, Jin Shanshan's body shape has not changed. He can just speak human language and communicate with Jiang Deng without any obstacles.
Jiang Deng finally put down the heavy stone in his heart.
Jin Shanshan asked curiously, "Master, you haven't told me yet. What did you do? Why did this ferocious beast go so far as to spit out its own life essence to kill you?"
Jiang Deng sighed, "It's all my own fault."
If she had not killed the offspring of the Flame-Swallowing Red Dragon, the Flame-Swallowing Red Dragon would not have risked its life to perish with her.
Although she was doing things according to the instructions of the guardian of the secret realm, she should naturally bear the consequences.
"You don't need to blame yourselves. Just enter the magma and wait for its inner elixir to grow back. It will wake up again in a few hundred years." The voice of the guardian of the secret realm suddenly sounded.
Immediately afterwards, the wound on the abdomen of the juvenile fire-swallowing red dragon on the ground began to heal. It seemed that it was carried into the magma by an unknown force and slowly sank.
"You have completed the mission and successfully passed the level. The inner elixir you obtained is your reward."
As soon as he finished speaking, a teleportation array appeared under Jiang Deng's feet. White runes on the teleportation array flashed, as if it would send Jiang Deng away in the next moment.
"Thief, don't run away!"
After all, the distance between them was too far. By the time Bai Sitang arrived, Jiang Deng's figure had already disappeared from this space.
"Damn it!" Bai Sitang, who was a step slower, gritted his teeth in hatred.
This person using the alias 'Li Lailai' actually dared to tease him like this. Sooner or later, he would catch him and kill him to vent his anger!
As for now...
Bai Sitang looked at the half-dead Flame-Swallowing Red Dragon. If he couldn't take the small one's inner elixir, he would take the big one!
"go!"
As Bai Sitang finished speaking, the red-scaled Teng Snake on his shoulder flapped its wings and flew to the Flame-Swallowing Red Dragon, which was already at the end of its strength, and began to bite its abdomen with its sharp teeth.
Although this red-scaled Teng Snake is still in its infancy, it is a top-grade spiritual beast of the heavenly rank after all, and its rank is higher than that of the Flame-Swallowing Red Dragon. Its teeth are extremely sharp and it easily tore open the belly of the red dragon.
The fire-swallowing red dragon let out a mournful howl, and its limp body fell into the magma.
After getting Bai Sitang's permission, the Red Scaled Teng Snake decisively swallowed the crimson inner elixir. The spiritual energy around its body surged, and it would be able to advance as soon as it digested the power of the inner elixir.
The voice of the Secret Realm Guardian rang out immediately afterwards, "Bai Sitang has passed the level and entered the next level."
The next moment, the teleportation array lit up, and Bai Sitang's figure disappeared in the Silent Volcano.
——
With his feet firm, Jiang Deng landed safely.
She had not been idle just now, memorizing all the runes on the formation in her mind, which consumed a great deal of her mental energy.
Jiang Deng shook his dizzy head and looked around.
Although it was dark, fortunately the environment in this level was not as harsh as that of the Silent Volcano.
There were dense forests and weeds all around, with only a winding path under my feet extending to the end of my sight. I had no idea where it led to.
The voice of the Secret Realm Guardian sounded from above, "The fourth level, Jingmen - Sutra Library."
"Your task is to remove the books from a row of bookshelves within twelve hours. Once you complete the task, you can choose any martial arts book you want and take it away."
"No problem!" Jiang Deng nodded happily.
Jingmen is the middle level among the eight gates. Although the task is not as easy as Shengmen, it is definitely not as dangerous as the Xiongmen in the previous level.
Moreover, if you complete the task, you will get some skills for free, which is really great!
"By the way, Jin Shanshan, do you want to eat this?"
Jiang Deng raised the inner elixir of the ferocious beast in his hand and asked Jin Shanshan.
Jin Shanshan, who was standing above him, decisively waved his hand and refused. "No, the inner core of a fully developed Flame-Swallowing Scarlet Dragon is still okay to eat, but this juvenile inner core is too inferior. If I eat it, I won't improve my cultivation, and I'd be lucky if it doesn't decrease."
Jiang Deng: "...Jin Shanshan, is it really okay for you to be so picky about food?"
"Hehehe, if Master is alright, I'll go to sleep. Goodbye, Master!"
Jin Shanshan swiftly returned to Jiang Deng's hair tie and took a nap on it.
This hair rope is the clone of Asu, and it contains abundant spiritual power. Even if you just get close to it, it is much more useful than taking the inner elixir directly!
Jiang Deng couldn't help but shake her head and laugh. Why didn't she realize that Jin Shanshan was so naughty before?
In the end, Jiang Deng threw the inner elixir that no one wanted into the storage bag, hoping it might be useful in the future.
A flash of white light.
The rune on Jiang Deng's wrist suddenly lit up.
Hmm? Are there any Taichu Sword Sect disciples nearby?
Before Jiang Deng could find the other person, she saw a dazzling light appearing in the depths of the dense forest beside her, and the light was approaching her rapidly.
"Sir, are you a fellow disciple of the Taichu Sword Sect?"
A surprised male voice sounded, and then the other party jumped out after pushing aside the weeds.
The young man was wearing a dark blue robe, had a slender figure and a shiny forehead. It was none other than Ying Ziru!
Jiang Deng raised his eyebrows slightly.
It seems that the runes she drew are quite good. The lighting rune on Ying Ziru's forehead is still lit. Interesting...
Ying Ziru also saw Jiang Deng. The smile on his face immediately disappeared. He pointed his finger at Jiang Deng and began to tremble wildly, "You, you are that demon cultivator, Li Lailai!"
Jiang Deng: “…”
Time was so tight that she forgot to take off the invisible cloak covering her.
The last time he transformed into a demon cultivator and met Ying Ziru, he was dressed like this. No wonder Ying Ziru was so scared.
There is no other way. In order not to reveal my identity, I can only continue acting.
“Hehehe…”
Jiang Deng laughed very professionally, startling a flock of birds in the dense forest.
It was dark at this time and the surrounding area was overgrown with weeds.
On the only path in the dense forest, an unknown figure covered in a black robe stood, making a creepy laugh.
How horrible is this situation?
"Youngster, I meet you again. What should I do?" Jiang Deng's hoarse voice was filled with strong ill intentions.
Ying Ziru couldn't help but show fear on his face.
He remembered that the last time he was knocked unconscious by this evil cultivator, all the spirit stones and talismans on his body were gone. How could he escape unharmed when he met him again this time?
Got to run away quickly!
Thinking of this, Ying Ziru quickly injected his spiritual power into the spiritual boots under his feet. The spiritual boots glowed slightly, and just as they were about to take him away, his vision suddenly went dark.
The man in black robe suddenly jumped up and chopped him on the back of the neck with a knife.
Ying Ziru rolled his eyes, fell to the ground with a thud, and fell into a coma.
"Hehehe...what should I grab this time?"
Jiang Deng looked down from above, examining Ying Ziru, who lay unconscious on the ground.
