Chapter 575 Five-Colored Rock Dragon
"Dragon Vine!"
Facing the interweaving sword lights, Ning Daoran shouted loudly, and suddenly dozens of dragon vines appeared around him, crisscrossing and entangling the six murderous stone statues.
"Go down!"
Ning Daoran raised his right fist, with wisps of blood-red aura swirling around his fist. The dragon demon martial infant behind him looked quite ferocious. With a full-strength punch, a stone statue was immediately knocked into the underground rock wall.
"Little black guy, start spraying!"
Ning Daoran shouted in a low voice.
Xiao Heizi immediately opened his bloody mouth, and his pair of black dragon's vertical pupils shrank violently. A large amount of essence of sex water fell from the sky, directly submerging the body of the stone statue.
The rusting effect of the Guishui essence on the stone figurine was visible to the naked eye. The stone figurine struggled to get up but was knocked down by Ning Daoran's punch again. Xiao Heizi quickly took a second breath of the Guishui essence.
As a result, after taking two breaths of Guishui essence, large patches of rust appeared on the body of the stone statue, and lightning jumped inside, as if there was a short circuit. In the blink of an eye, the breath was cut off and it turned into a pile of scrap copper and iron.
“Come again!”
Ning Daoran flew into the air and continued to attack the other stone statues.
Thus, two breaths of essence of Guishui and one stone statue had extraordinary effects.
When Ning Daoran had dealt with all six stone figurines, Longque Sanren had been entangled by the other two stone figurines and was panting, and had even suffered internal injuries...
Poor Longque Sanren, this old man is always the one who gets hurt during the journey to the Endless Sea of Demons.
"Fellow Daoist Longque, leave it to me!"
Ning Daoran came through the air and took care of the two stone statues cleanly and neatly.
Soon, the eight stone statues guarding the Golden Lotus Cave turned into a pile of broken copper and iron.
"Fellow Daoist Ning..."
Long Que San Ren was still in shock. He glanced at the black dragon head that disappeared in Ning Daoran's arms and said, "I wonder what kind of treasure is this thing that can spit out Guishui essence?"
“Ahem…”
Ning Daoran was a little embarrassed: "This is a personal secret of Ning's cultivation, so don't ask, Brother Longque."
"That's right, that's right!"
After hearing the call of "Brother Longque", Longque Sanren felt so comfortable that he nodded repeatedly and said, "Brother, I am being presumptuous. I shouldn't have asked such unnecessary questions."
As he spoke, he looked at the remains of eight stone statues lying in disarray on the ground.
Ning Daoran's attention was also focused on these stone figurines. He looked at the golden and green interlaced textures on one of his broken hands and frowned, saying, "Ning has never seen such metals in my cultivation..."
"If I'm not mistaken..."
Longque Sanren narrowed his eyes and said, "This is the legendary Qinghong gold, a fourth-grade top-grade material that is extremely rare. One ounce of Qinghong gold is worth a fortune. It is a top-grade material for refining equipment, puppets, and formations. Ordinary cultivators may not have the chance to see it in their lifetime."
He looked at the Qinghong gold on the ground and said, "I wonder who the owner of this Golden Lotus Cave is. He was able to use Qinghong gold to create eight stone figurines that are comparable to those in the early stage of the Primordial Realm. It's really a great feat!"
"I see……"
Ning Daoran's eyes lit up. There was no need to worry about the fourth-grade top-quality materials. He was now a fourth-grade mid-grade formation master. The limit of what he could refine was the Falling Star Formation and the Nine-Turn Ruyi Formation. But if he wanted to go further, he had to challenge the fourth-grade top-quality formation.
Although there is no fourth-level top-grade array inheritance yet, it is clearly recorded in the inheritance of the Nine-turn Ruyi Array that all fourth-level top-grade arrays must have a main material, which is the Qinghong gold in front of us! If all the Qinghong gold from these eight stone figurines is scraped off, it must weigh at least one ton, right?
With such an opportunity, an ordinary fourth-level formation master probably wouldn't even dare to dream of such a big opportunity, right?
"Brother Longque."
Ning Daoran coughed lightly and said, "As you know, I am a fourth-rank formation master. Since these stone figurines are made of Qinghong gold, they are what I need. I will not be polite."
"Brother Ning, you don't have to be polite!"
Longque Sanren said with a smile: "These eight stone figurines were all killed by Brother Ning, so I should not have taken any of them. Besides, although the Qinghong gold is precious, it is of no use to me in my great Dao."
"That's great, thank you brother!"
"You're welcome, brother!"
…
Ning Daoran put all eight stone figurines into the storage ring in one breath. It would definitely not be a problem for him to use the golden sword to slowly scrape off all the Qinghong gold. They were all top-quality materials. He would make a fortune!
"elder brother!"
At this moment, Ning Mingyu, who was above the cave, said in a voice transmission: "What's going on down there, those stone statues?"
“It’s all been resolved.”
Ning Daoran said: "But don't come down for now. There must be dangers in the cave. You just wait up there."
"good."
"Brother Ning."
Longque Sanren narrowed his eyes and looked directly below.
The area protected by the stone statues is the bottom of the cave. However, when Longque Sanren released his Nascent Soul consciousness to explore, he only detected a hot restriction. The restriction was extremely complex and far beyond his ability to crack.
"An ancient restriction."
Ning Daoran frowned, "It's not difficult to break this ancient restriction, but it's a fire restriction, it's extremely hot, Brother Longque might as well fly up a little, I'll stay here to break it, there may be opportunities or disasters under this restriction, anyway... you all should be prepared to deal with it, don't panic when the time comes."
"That's a very good point!"
Longque Sanren said, "In that case, Brother Ning will stay here to break the restriction, and I will fly up to take good care of the young lady."
"good!"
Ning Daoran quickly took out a large amount of formation materials, sat cross-legged, and began to break the restriction below.
…
A day passed in the blink of an eye.
The heat coming from underground became more and more intense. At first, Ning Daoran could still resist it a little, but later it was too hot. Even though he possessed the Nine Yang Furnace Secret, he was sweating profusely.
He had no choice but to use the Autumn Water Sword and release a little bit of icy spirit essence to reduce the temperature.
Three more days passed like this.
On the fourth day, this ancient restriction became thinner and thinner, while the flame energy coming from below became stronger and stronger.
Ning Daoran frowned, remembering that when he landed on the island before, the sea area near the entire Shenshi Island was boiling. The reason for this change must be related to this restriction.
It is quite obvious what is imprisoned under the restriction.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
An ancient immortal used magic to suppress a great beast here. Now the ban has weathered for many years and its power has been greatly weakened. The time when the underground beast will reappear is approaching, and the golden lotus emerging from the ground... if nothing unexpected happens, it was released by the underground beast, which attracted the cultivators to open its shackles here.
To put it bluntly, it's all calculation.
Although Ning Daoran understood all of this, he still insisted on breaking the ban. There was no other reason. Even if the beast imprisoned underground was a deity, he could escape unscathed. After all, the skill of running away required extraordinary skills. And if he could defeat the opponent and get the opportunity, this trip would naturally be a great success.
Besides, the purpose of coming to the Endless Demon Sea is to kill monsters and impact the ranking of the Monster Killing List. If you don’t kill monsters when you see them, you might as well not come.
At this moment, there was a sea of red fire under the restriction, and the sky was filled with demonic energy.
"elder brother!"
Ning Mingyu, who was above the cave, transmitted a message: "Such a strong evil spirit. What's going on down there? You have to be careful!"
"Don't worry, just stand back. A great demon is about to appear. It is likely to be in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul."
"Yuan... the middle stage of Yuanying..."
Ning Mingyu's tongue trembled: "Why don't we run away?"
"Why are you running? We are here to kill monsters. We must have ambition!"
"All right……"
Ning Mingyu really wanted to run away.
…
“Roar~~~”
Ning Daoran finally cast more than ten spells in succession, completely opening this ancient restriction. Suddenly, a deafening dragon roar came from underground, and then a strong flame like magma gushed out from the ground, directly lifting Ning Daoran's body up.
He stood on a wisp of flame, holding the Qinglong Spear in his hand, looking down at the things rising from the ground with a disdainful look.
As fire spread across the sky, a giant creature slowly came into view.
Ferocious giant horns, colorful scales, a huge ferocious head like a mountain, and an extremely strong demonic aura with the dual attributes of fire and earth rising from the ground.
This giant creature that had been imprisoned underground for who knows how many years was actually a five-colored rock dragon, emitting the strong aura of a mid-stage Nascent Soul! Its combat power was probably no less than that of the mid-stage Nascent Soul Fire Cloud Turtle in the Xingyun Mountains!
"My dear friend, it was you who saved me?"
Above the Five-Colored Rock Dragon's head, an old man in a golden-red robe appeared, with one hand behind his back, looking somewhat like an immortal. He smiled and asked, "Is that so?"
"Exactly."
Ning Daoran was polite before using force, he clasped his fists and said with a smile: "My last name is Ning, I am a Nascent Soul from the human race's cultivation world. Today I happened to pass by this treasure land and came to this cave. It's a coincidence that I am a fourth-level formation master, so I helped you to unlock this ancient restriction."
"I'm afraid it's more than that?"
The Five-Colored Rock Dragon sniffed the remaining scent in the air and said with a smile, "Young friend, you not only helped me to unlock the shackles of thousands of years, but also completely wiped out the stone figurines left by that old guy. Is that right?"
"Exactly."
Ning Daoran smiled slightly: "It seems that I am lucky. What I did coincidentally helped you see the light of day again. I wonder how you plan to repay me for such a great favor? Forget about ordinary opportunities. I don't care about them. If you want to thank me, you might as well take out some of your treasures."
"oh?"
The Five-Colored Rock Dragon narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "I wonder if you have seen that golden lotus that sprang from the ground. If I give it to you as a gift, I wonder if you will be able to appreciate it."
"Of course."
Ning Daoran said in a deep voice: "If it is the Golden Lotus emerging from the Earth, then it's fine."
“Hehehe…”
The Five-Colored Rock Dragon tilted its head, looked at Ning Daoran from the side, and said with a smile: "The Golden Lotus has already turned into a pool of grass ash in my dragon flame, so don't even think about it. If you really want to thank me, my belly is a cave paradise, a place that is warm in winter and cool in summer. How about I swallow you in one gulp to thank you for saving my life?"
"Fuck your grandma's leg!"
Ning Daoran held the big blue dragon in the air and said, "I know that none of you monsters are good!"
"Fuck you!"
The five-colored rock dragon's body was filled with dragon flames, and it also cursed: "Do you humans have good things?!"
