The people in Shengxian Pavilion must have discovered this wound on the fossil a long time ago, but they must have thought it was just an ordinary scar.

The more complete the ancient dragon fossil is, the more valuable it is. Their people definitely wouldn't have nothing better to do than dig a hole in the dragon's head for fun.

But this is a bargain for Jiang Li, who has the ability to identify things.

No matter what, let’s dig it up and take a look first.

Jiang Li took out a small seed from his arms and placed it in his palm.

Then a green light flashed in his hand, and the seeds sprouted and expanded quickly, and soon a diamond tree grew out of his hand.

This is a spiritual wood with extremely high hardness, and runes can be easily carved on Kun Steel. If the size of the naturally grown diamond wood is not too small, it would be a good material for making magic weapons.

The fossilized dragon head is not as hard as it was when it was alive.

Jiang Li had to be very careful to make sure he didn't use too much force and smash the entire dragon head.

The tiny bone gap was carefully chiseled open bit by bit by the diamond wood.

Soon, a bit of black appeared from the skeleton.

Jiang Li dug more carefully, and finally dug out something from the dragon bone fossil.

It was a diamond-shaped piece of metal about the size of a palm.

It feels heavy in the hand, smooth and cool to the touch. Even after so many years, the edges and tips of the metal block are still sharp.

And on its surface, two ancient runes can be vaguely seen.

This piece of metal looks... a bit like an arrow? Jiang Li gestured twice more, and the more he looked at it, the more it looked like an enlarged version of an arrow.

Throw an identification spell over.

【Name: Dragon Hunting Arrow】

【Type: Miscellaneous】

【Quality: Ancient】

【Status: Broken】

【Material: Unknown】

【Description: Armor Break】

[Note: A dragon hunting arrow that has never been able to kill a dragon.]

Sure enough, it was an arrow.

But, were the arrows used by the monks in ancient times so big? The size of a palm, with this weight, it would be no problem to refine it into a short sword.

Jiang Li compared it again and found that the arrow was embedded in the faucet with the tip facing inwards and stuck at an upward angle.

It seems that the person who shot this arrow must be a good archer.

He must have taken advantage of the ancient dragon opening its mouth and roaring, and suddenly launched a sneak attack, piercing its mouth with an arrow.

Breaking through the relatively fragile oral cavity and penetrating three inches into the bone, this should have been a heavy blow to a real dragon in ancient times.

Just as the appraisal technique said, the arrow did not take the ancient dragon's life, otherwise the wound would not have healed.

Jiang Li took the arrow in his hand and turned it over, wondering what use this thing could have.

In terms of combat record, the Dragon Prison Lock once locked up a real dragon, and the Dragon Hunting Arrow almost killed a dragon.

Roughly speaking, the Dragon Hunting Arrow in ancient times was not as good as the Dragon Prison Lock, but the difference should not be much.

Although it has lost its former power, the material has not changed.

So, what should be done with it?

At this moment, Jiang Li suddenly felt a chill in his palms.

He was stunned for a moment. This feeling was both familiar and unfamiliar to him. He had not felt it for some time.

To the point that I didn't react immediately.

It was not until drops of blood began to flow down the sharp edge of the arrow and a wave of pain came from the palm of his hand that he realized that just now, a big cut had been made on his palm.

He was still amazed as he watched the wound heal.

I was just careless, but my defense was broken like this? Jiang Li was extremely surprised. You know, even the Shushan Flying Sword and the Soul-Breaking Black Sword must have the sword heart to break his skin.

However, this arrow did not have any spiritual energy on it, and like the Dragon Prison Lock, it had long lost its former power. However, it was able to break through Jiang's defense simply by relying on its sharpness on the physical level.

How amazing this is.

Jiang Li held the arrow in disbelief and scratched the skin on his arm again.

But this time, the sharp tip of the arrow was blocked by a layer of lake core protection on Jiang Li's body surface, and there was still a very small distance between the sharp tip and his skin.

Tick-tock.

A few more drops of blood fell, and the hand holding the arrow was cut again.

It is somewhat magical that you can hurt yourself without hurting the enemy.

Jiang Li thought for a moment and felt that something strange was going on. He took out a magic shield made of a dragon turtle shell and placed it flat on the ground.

He injected spiritual energy into the shield, activated the defensive aura on it, and then let the arrow fall freely one meter above the Dragon Turtle Shield. The arrow was undoubtedly directly bounced off.

Jiang Li was not discouraged and picked up the arrow. This time, he removed the spiritual energy from the dragon turtle's shield and dropped the arrow again from the same height.

With a dull sound, the palm-sized arrowhead penetrated the tortoise-shell shield and pierced out from the inside of the shield. This yellow-level magic weapon was immediately scrapped.

Jiang Li raised his eyebrows. Falling from a height of one meter, how much kinetic energy can that little potential energy transform into? But with such a slight force, without any spiritual energy fluctuations, this thing still easily pierced through the dragon turtle shield.

He understood immediately that the sharpness of the dragon hunting arrow had no effect on the spiritual shield, but it could easily break through the physical defense.

Moreover, the armor-piercing effect is extremely abnormal.

What a good stuff! It’s definitely worth it to unbox the dragon head this time.

But I, Jiang, don’t know how to shoot arrows. How can I play my role?

Jiang Li thought about it again and again, and suddenly he came up with an idea.

. . . .

The next day, early in the morning.

A series of bang-bang-bang noises woke Jiang Li up.

He walked out of the room, and Elder He and Senior Brother Xiang had just walked out.

"Master, what is this sound?"

The three of them followed the sound and after passing through an equally large number of Buddha statues, they found a very open training ground.

Here, five hundred disciples were practicing boxing. These five hundred disciples did not hit sandbags or stones with their fists, but only hit the air.

Their fists always landed in the air, but every time they threw a punch, there was always a loud bang in the air, which clearly showed that they hit hard.

This should be a special kind of boxing, which requires extremely sophisticated control of punching force.

Just imagine that even the air cannot dissolve the power of their fists. If such fists hit a cultivator, ordinary methods of unloading the force will be useless.

Cihang Temple is worthy of being called Cihang Temple. It does have its own unique features when it comes to physical cultivation.

"Who dares to come to my Luohan Hall to learn secretly?"

But they had just watched for a while when a loud shout suddenly came from the other side of the five hundred monks.

Elder He stepped forward and punched the opponent's palm.

Fortunately, neither side really fought. After a whistling gust of wind, the two men slowly fell down.

The old monk was not tall. He was obviously a strong cultivator who could fight against Elder He, but he looked rather thin.

"We are envoys from Sutra Repository Valley. We had no intention of peeking. We just followed the sound and strayed into this place. Please forgive us for any offense."

Neither of the two big guys spoke. Senior Brother Xiang took two steps forward and bowed to explain. At this time, one of the five hundred monks in the back also walked out and explained the identities of Jiang Li and others to the old monk.

“So it’s the distinguished guest from Sutra Valley. Humph, I’m so sorry. If you have nothing else to do, please leave.

The attitude of this old monk was completely different from that of Master Liaochi last night, and disgust was evident in his words.

After he ordered Jiang Li and the other two to leave, he looked coldly at the disciple who came out to explain.

"Who asked you to step out?"

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

Bang! The old monk swung his palm again, directly knocking the disciple away, and he fell to the ground a hundred meters away, and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

Jiang Li and the other two frowned. Now they knew that the old monk's bad attitude was not directed at them, but this kind of person was still very annoying.

"You guys aren't leaving yet?"

Seeing that Jiang Li and others were still standing there, the old monk actually urged them again with a very bad attitude.

But the three of them couldn't get angry at all, so Senior Brother Xiang spoke again.

"We have come to Cihang Temple to discuss important matters with the abbot of your temple. We would also like to ask where the abbot is now."

This matter is more complicated than it seems. It is better to resolve it as soon as possible without delaying it too much.

However, the other party's answer surprised the three of them.

"Hmph, the abbot is in seclusion and does not see outsiders. If you want to wait, then wait. If you can't wait, then leave immediately."

Retreat? Jiang Li and the other two wanted to ask the host how long he would be in retreat, but the host refused to say anything and directly ordered his disciples to send them out of the Arhat Hall.

"I'm sorry, three donors. Great-grandmaster Kong'e has a bad temper. Please don't take it to heart."

The two disciples who escorted them out said this secretly after they left the old monk's sight. It was obvious that the disciples of Cihang Temple were also very afraid of the monk Kong'e.

But why is his generation title empty? Or is he the master's uncle?

In Cihang Temple, the generation of contemporary disciples is called "Fa", the generation of monks of the previous generation is called "Liao", and the generation of monks of the generation before that is called "Kong".

Jiang Li had thought that the only masters of the Kong generation were those few remaining great monks, but he did not expect that there was an unknown monk named Kong'e here.

"That's fine, but Junior Brother, is your abbot really in seclusion?"

Jiang Li didn't quite believe what the monk Kong'e said, so he asked the disciple again.

"Yes, the abbot has already started his retreat a month ago, but I don't know when he will come out."

Jiang Li and the other two looked at each other, all of them feeling that the situation was difficult. If the abbot stayed in seclusion for three to five years, by the time he came out, the opportunity would have been lost.

"Then could you please take us to Master Leyuan's meditation room?"

Jiang Li thought for a moment and decided to ask Yuan for help.

Even though that guy is only at the foundation-building stage, he is definitely a disciple of the previous generation of divine monks. Through him, he can directly communicate with the previous generation of monks with the character "Kong" in their name, and the effect will be the same.

The Qi Refining disciples naturally had no objection. After asking for leave at the Arhat Hall, they took Jiang Li and the other two to find Le Yuan, who was sitting under a tree.

But the news that I got from Leyuan this time made me even more helpless.

The six great monks were actually in seclusion with the abbot and couldn't come out for a while.

"Master Liaoyuan, we are here on a mission and need to see the abbot of your temple as soon as possible. Can you help us make some arrangements?"

Jiang Li spoke sincerely and was still making efforts.

"Well, Master and the five uncles should not be able to come out of seclusion, but Senior Brother Liaoku is only assisting them, not in seclusion."

"Everyone, please follow me. I will pass the message on. There should still be a chance."

Jiang Li finally breathed a sigh of relief. Master Leyuan was indeed reliable.

After many twists and turns, Jiang Li and the others followed Yuan into the depths of Cihang Temple and stopped in front of a swastika Buddhist gate.

"Please wait a moment, I will be back soon."

Master Liaoyuan chanted a Buddhist name, shining it on the swastika, and the door slowly opened.

From the crack of the open door, rays of Buddha's light shone out. Jiang Li had sharp eyes and could see many golden bamboos planted inside, which gave off a very Buddha-like look.

However, before he could see clearly and just as Le Yuan was about to step in, a man came out from the swastika Buddhist door and stopped Le Yuan.

"Junior Brother Liaoyuan, my brothers and sisters are at a critical moment right now, no one is allowed to enter."

The person who came out of Buddhism and stood in front of fate was that annoying Kong'e!

"Meet Uncle Kong'e."

"Donors of Sutra Valley, I have something important to discuss with the abbot. Please let me go in and inform you."

Master Liaoyuan bowed first, and then explained respectfully. Generally speaking, giving face will make things easier for others.

But when the target is this Kong'e, the ending is different.

This old monk always has a sour face and never listens to people. He closes the swastika door and refuses to let anyone in.

"I said no and it means no! Can you afford to delay the important matters of our temple?"

"Or is it that the words of my uncle-in-law are no longer effective?"

Master Liaoyuan himself was a disciple of a divine monk, but the other party was also a monk of the Kong generation, and had reached the Nascent Soul stage. In the Cihang Temple with a complete hierarchy and strict rules, he really had no way to disobey the other party.

Leyuan still wanted to argue, but was still ignored.

Kong'e turned around and looked at Jiang Li and the others, with nothing but disgust on his old face.

"As for the three people in Sutra Repository Valley, they will be able to break through in three days. You can't even wait for three days, right?"

After saying this, he hung another golden lock on the Buddhist door and turned to leave.

It is true that when there is no tiger in the mountain, the monkey will be king.

When the abbot and the six monks were all in retreat, this monk Kong'e was not the one with the highest cultivation, but he was the one with the greatest seniority.

Judging from the situation, no one can cure him before those seven people break through the barrier! Master Liaoyuan left helplessly. Jiang Li and others saw that he looked unhappy and spoke to comfort him.

"Master Liaoyuan, please don't make it difficult for me. Three days is no problem. We just need to wait patiently."

Elder He looked at the departing back of the monk Kong'e, the blood lines on his body twisting and moving, and his eyes almost spitting fire.

If we were in the wilderness or mountains, he would definitely be beaten up.

But the same thing still applies. If you have something to ask for while you are away from home, for the sake of the sect, damn it! Just bear with it! Elder He went to find Master Chi to think of a solution, but with this monk Kong'e getting in the way, it would still be difficult.

The purpose of their trip was to form an alliance to deal with Bailian Mountain. However, it was not convenient to let too many people know about this. If the news leaked out and Bailian Mountain made preparations, they would lose the initiative.

Senior Brother Xiang was depressed and went to practice with an acquaintance, but Jiang Li asked Yuan for a weapon refining room.
