Chapter 202: Fifth-order Earth Fire Spirit (Long chapter, please give me a monthly ticket)
The golden crow turns into a rainbow!
This is the name of this secret technique that Chu Ning learned from the jade slip.
This is a way of escape.
When one's practice reaches its peak, the speed is unimaginable.
For Chu Ning, this is what he lacks most right now.
On the offensive end, he now has the Soul-Capture Bracelet, two puppets, the Soul-Destroying Thorn, and some spells. His firepower on the offensive end is sufficient.
If you can defeat them, we will cover you with firepower!
If you can't win, just run away.
This is Chu Ning’s principle, defense is not the best option.
If Chu Ning had to choose between escape and defense, he would choose escape without hesitation.
To run away is to take your life into your own hands.
Defense means gambling on the opponent's offensive firepower.
One hit kills.
If you can't kill him, then retreat thousands of miles away.
Therefore, he was very satisfied with this method of escape.
The first step in transforming the Golden Crow into a rainbow is to transform yourself into a Golden Crow.
Chu Ning did not delay and started practicing directly.
As he mobilized the Art of Immovable as a Mountain and activated the Golden Crow Secret Technique, the originally calm earth fire began to surge again. Feng Ange breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this scene.
It was worth the secret technique she gave away. The Golden Crow Transforming into Rainbow Technique was one of the three great secret techniques of the Feng family, and ordinary members of the family were not qualified to practice it.
But she couldn't possibly teach the other two secret techniques to Chu Ning. In comparison, the Golden Crow Transforming into Rainbow was the most suitable.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Three months later, in this stone tower, a golden figure shuttled through it as fast as a rainbow of light, each time faster than the last.
Five years later.
Chu Ning was suspended in the air above the stone tower, and the next moment his body suddenly turned into a flame, the flame burning fiercely, and a golden crow emerged from it.
And at the moment when the Golden Crow's figure appeared, Chu Ning's figure appeared on the other side of the stone tower.
"A hundred miles in an instant. This speed is five times faster than my original speed, and this is not the limit, either in terms of speed or distance."
There was a look of joy on Chu Ning's face. The Golden Crow Transforming into Rainbow Technique lived up to its name. He was just getting started and was still limited by the space of this stone tower. If he used his full strength, he would be able to last a thousand miles.
"Even if I face a late Jindan strongman, I should have no problem escaping."
Chu Ning was very satisfied with the speed of the Golden Crow Transformation Technique. However, in the center of the stone tower, Feng Ange, who had witnessed Chu Ning's progress in practice from beginning to end, had a look of shock on her pretty face.
The Golden Crow Transforming into Rainbow Technique is one of the three secret techniques of the Feng family. The reason why ordinary family members cannot learn it is not only because they are afraid of the secret technique leaking out, but also because it is not easy to learn this secret technique.
It took her three years to master this art, while Elder Feng took ten years. It would probably take the average tribesman at least twenty years to master it.
Before reaching the Golden Elixir stage, the tribesmen should focus more on breaking through the realm. If they spend too much time practicing the Golden Crow Transformation into Rainbow Technique, it will affect their practice progress.
But it was beyond her expectation that Chu Ning got the hang of it in just five years.
She was able to get started in three years because she had Golden Crow blood in her body, which was helpful in practicing the Golden Crow Transformation Technique.
The Golden Crow Transforming into Rainbow Technique had once been leaked to the outside world. According to the records of major events in the Feng family, for some reason, the city lord at the time gave the method of practicing the Golden Crow Transforming into Rainbow Technique to outsiders.
However, among those outsiders who practiced the Golden Crow Transformation into Rainbow Technique, one failed. Of the remaining four, the fastest took fifteen years, and the slowest took a full thirty years to get started.
How did Chu Ning do this? It’s impossible that he also has the Golden Crow bloodline in his body.
Chu Ning had no idea what Feng Angge was thinking at the moment. When he was practicing the Golden Crow Transforming into Rainbow Technique, the waterfall transformed from the immortal fruit on the Dantian Mountain poured over the golden elixir, providing him with some special energy.
It was this energy that allowed him to successfully transform into the Golden Crow.
At this time, Lao Hei has shed his skin for the eighth time and is only one step away from the final shed.
Chu Ning did not practice any more. This was his last time and he was going to pay full attention to the whole process. If there was any accident, he would remedy it immediately.
Feng Ange did not call on Chu Ning to continue practicing this time. The earth fire energy she had absorbed in the past few years was enough. Even if the earth fire energy continued to flow out, she could not absorb it.
She was also curious about what would happen to the snake after it shed its skin.
She had never heard of a snake demon that shed its skin nine times before forming a pill.
"Come on, Lao Hei."
Chu Ning looked at Lao Hei. After molting eight times, Lao Hei's body had shrunk to three feet in length, and his four claws had turned completely snow-white.
Black body and white claws.
"What kind of snake is this Lao Hei?"
Chu Ning was also wondering in his heart. Snakes don't have claws, but Lao Hei not only has claws, but they are becoming more and more obvious.
Half a year later.
This is Chu Ning’s tenth full year in the stone tower.
The snake skin on Lao Hei's body slowly fell off again. The first part to fall off was the snake head. The whole snake head did not change much from the original one. As it fell off the body, new pieces of shiny black scales appeared, and Chu Ning discovered the difference.
The original scales on Lao Hei's body were diamond-shaped, covered layer by layer like roof tiles, but now the scales on Lao Hei's body have become round.
In addition to the change in scale shape, the direction of the scales on Lao Hei's abdomen is also opposite to that on the back and sides.
The scales on the back and sides start from the snake's head and cover downwards layer by layer, but the scales on the abdomen start from the very end and cover towards the back of the neck.
Opposite direction, same shape.
Seeing the changes in the scales on Lao Hei's body, a word "reverse scales" subconsciously emerged in Chu Ning's mind.
When he thought of the reverse scale, he recalled a familiar folk proverb from his previous life.
The dragon has a reverse scale, and it will be angry if it is touched.
Lao Hei is not a snake, but a dragon? Chu Ning was frightened by this guess that appeared in his mind. This shouldn't be the case.
Is there any dragon as despicable and afraid of death as Lao Hei?
If Lao Hei were a dragon, he would be a wicked dragon.
The snake skin fell off bit by bit, and when Lao Hei's tail also fell out of the snake skin, Chu Ning stared at it intently, and Feng Angge also focused his consciousness on Lao Hei.
Nine transformations to form the elixir.
What kind of elixir would be formed? Old Black, who had escaped from the snake skin, suddenly swam around quickly, and his body doubled in size every time he swam around.
In just a few breaths, its size increased by dozens of times.
A huge aura of a demon beast emanated from Lao Hei. Chu Ning didn't feel anything when this aura spread, but Feng Angge's expression changed.
She felt her blood boiling, and murderous intent subconsciously flashed in her eyes.
This murderous intention did not come from her own will, but came from the Golden Crow blood in her body.
"Golden Crow has murderous intentions towards this snake demon?"
Feng Ange frowned. Could it be that this snake demon really had a great origin, and was it an enemy of the Jinwu clan? While Feng Ange was thinking, Chu Ning's expression also changed slightly. It was not that he felt Feng Ange's murderous intent, but that he heard Lao Hei's voice transmission in his mind.
"Shit, with the magical power of heaven and earth that appeared at the moment of Dan formation, I can sense that there is a lingering monster below. If we swallow it, we will be rich."
Lao Hei was very excited. Without waiting for Chu Ning to reply, he drilled directly into the magma below.
Chu Ning was a little confused. There was a monster in the underground fire below, so it must be related to the Feng family. If you go and swallow it, will the Feng family let us go?
Chu Ning glanced in Feng Angge's direction. As he was surrounded by flames, he couldn't see Feng Angge's expression clearly. He could only yell in his mind, "If you don't want to die, come up quickly, you bastard, and don't cause any trouble."
Unfortunately, there was no response from Lao Hei.
Feng Ange was also somewhat shocked when she saw the black snake rushing into the magma below. There was a fifth-order underground fire below. A Jindan monster would be burned to ashes if it went down there. Was this snake seeking death? However, after just a few breaths, Feng Ange's expression changed because she felt the surging underground fire below.
Unprecedented surge.
This fifth-order earth fire seemed to be stimulated by something and was hitting the formation frantically.
What on earth was going on down there? Boom! A wave of fire suddenly erupted. Feng Ange slapped it with his palm, but the fire wave was not dispersed. Instead, it roared and swallowed him.
Feng Ange retreated, and Chu Ning beside him also flashed away from the spot. A wave of fire fell at the place where he had stood before.
Boom boom boom! The two waves of fire sprayed out, as if a switch was turned on. Below them, waves of fire came one after another, and Chu Ning and Feng Ange had to keep moving.
The fire waves of the fifth-level earth fire are not something two people can contend with.
"What did your spirit beast do?"
Feng Ange dodged a wave of fire and shouted at Chu Ning.
At this moment, the flames on Feng Angge's body were gone, revealing his true appearance, with frost all over his cold and beautiful face.
"City Lord, calm down. My spirit beast sensed the strangeness of the underground fire below and is ready to go down to investigate. I don't know why it has become like this now."
Chu Ning hurriedly tried to make excuses for himself. If he told the truth, the consequence would be that the Lord of Feng City would hunt him down immediately.
Feng Ange looked at Chu Ning deeply, and the next moment his body kept changing positions in the tower to avoid the fire waves. His hands did not stop, but were quickly making a complicated hand seal.
"open!"
The hand seal was formed, Feng Ange shouted softly, and an invisible force seemed to appear in the magma below, directly splitting the magma into two halves.
Formation? Chu Ning stared at the inside of the magma. As the magma was squeezed to both sides, a vacuum zone without flames appeared in the middle.
Looking down, Chu Ning saw Lao Hei, a huge golden egg, and a fire dragon.
Feng Ange also saw this scene. Her pretty face changed and she immediately shot downwards. Chu Ning hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to follow.
"I almost got caught. I thought I could eat something to make up for it, but I didn't expect there was a guy hiding next to me who attacked me at the last moment. If I hadn't reacted quickly, I would have been roasted."
As Chu Ning landed, he heard Lao Hei's words. The corner of his mouth twitched. Sure enough, this change was related to this guy Lao Hei.
"What on earth did you do to end up in this situation?" Chu Ning asked himself.
“What can I do? Didn’t I tell you that there’s a great tonic hidden underground? It’s this golden egg. As long as we eat this golden egg, we can both reach Nascent Soul stage. But just as I was about to eat it, this fire dragon suddenly appeared. If I hadn’t reacted quickly, I would have been burned into snake meat.”
"What is the origin of this fire dragon?"
Chu Ning was a little curious. Could this fire dragon be the guardian monster of the golden egg? "What else could it be? It's the fire spirit of the earth fire. This guy also treated this golden egg as a dish, but he still wanted to keep it. When he saw me trying to snatch his food, he was furious."
After listening to Lao Hei's words, Chu Ning understood. So Lao Hei was trying to snatch food from someone else's mouth, which made the other person angry, and that was why such a wave of fire burst out.
While Chu Ning and Lao Hei were talking, Feng Angge's expression was extremely ugly, and there was a chill in his heart.
Although she didn't know what had happened exactly, when she saw the fire dragon, she knew that she, the successive city lords of the Feng family, and even the Golden Crow had all been deceived by this fifth-level earth fire.
The fifth-level earth fire has long been gifted with intelligence, otherwise this little fire dragon would not have appeared.
The Fire Spirit has been deliberately hiding for so many years, and its purpose is self-evident.
If there hadn't been this incident today, Feng Ange felt a chill in his heart when he thought about the possible consequences.
Chu Ning glanced at Feng Angge, and from the look of fear that just flashed across Feng Angge's face, he had a rough guess about Feng Angge's psychology.
"Lord Feng, my spirit beast has sensed the existence of this Earth Fire Spirit and knows that this Fire Spirit has ill intentions, so I came down to lure this Fire Spirit to show up!"
Chu Ning's brazen words impressed Lao Hei very much, and he nodded his snake head in cooperation.
Before Feng Ange could react, the little fire dragon became furious. The man and the snake were confusing right and wrong.
Boom! Purple flames spread out from the little fire dragon and began to surge around it. Every surge caused the temperature of the surrounding area to rise terribly, and even the space was burned and torn apart.
"not good!"
Feng Ange's expression changed, and he quickly formed seals with his hands again. Rays of light appeared in the space, and these rays of light crisscrossed and soon formed a light net that enveloped the fire dragon.
The fire dragon roared, and purple flames surged on its body. As soon as the light nets touched the purple flames, they were burned to nothingness.
But even so, more and more light nets continued to compress towards the fire dragon. The number of light nets was extremely huge, and even the fire dragon's flames could not withstand such consumption.
After a few breaths, the purple flame on the fire dragon began to dim, and Feng Ange breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.
She had just activated the formation left by her ancestors, which could be used to suppress the fire spirit.
Roar! The light net continued to compress, and the fire spirit also felt that his situation was not good. Purple flames emerged from his dragon eyes. After a roar, his body actually crashed directly into the light net.
It rushed forward recklessly, breaking the light net wherever it went, like a giant beast struggling in a giant underwater net.
The sudden violence of the fire spirit made Feng Angge's face change, and Chu Ning immediately retreated hundreds of meters. The purple flame gave him a palpitating feeling. If he was touched by even a trace of it, he would be turned into ashes.
Feng Ange had a solemn look on her face. If she faced a fifth-level earth fire spirit head-on, she would have no chance of winning at all.
This fire spirit has not been around for a particularly long time and has not yet fully grown. If we don't take this opportunity to trap it, the entire Feng family will be destroyed.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Thinking of this, Feng Ange's face was also full of determination. He bit his silver teeth lightly, and his hands quickly formed seals again, and shouted softly: "Lock!"
With a sound of "lock", the light net dissipated, but was replaced by black chains as thick as arms that appeared from the void.
There were runes engraved on these chains. At this moment, these runes were shining brightly. These lights turned into beams of light that rushed towards the fire dragon and directly pierced through the fire dragon's body.
At the same time, the chains also climbed up along the light column and entangled the fire dragon.
Roar! The fire dragon roared and tried to break free from the chains, but the chains locked it tightly. Chu Ning, who was standing hundreds of meters away, took a breath of cold air when he saw this scene.
This formation is really powerful.
You have to know that this is a fire spirit, the earth fire spirit that can turn into flames and dissipate at any time, but it was pierced by this pillar of light and tied to death by chains.
"Damn, this woman is really amazing."
Lao Hei's voice sounded in Chu Ning's ears. Chu Ning curled his lips. Is he scared now?
"I feel like something is wrong. Be careful. If anything goes wrong, run away immediately."
Chu Ning reminded Lao Hei. As for why he didn't remind the Lord of Wind City, it was because there had to be someone behind him to drag the Fire Spirit when he ran away.
Seeing the fire spirit being locked up, Feng Angge finally let go of his worry. His ancestors had prepared for this and specially set up a soul-locking formation to lock up the earth fire spirit. He didn't expect it to really come in handy.
Feng Ange's gaze fell on the golden egg, and he used his secret technique to try to communicate with the Golden Crow.
However, a strange scene appeared.
Puff! Feng Ange failed to establish communication with the Golden Crow, and instead spurted out a mouthful of blood, and his cold and beautiful face turned pale.
At the same time, a ball of purple flame appeared on the surface of the golden egg.
The trapped fire dragon's purple eyes flashed with a very human cunning.
The fire dragon began to struggle, and although it failed to break free from the chains, the space around it began to become unstable, and one or two clusters of flames emerged.
"Run."
Without saying a word, Chu Ning used the Golden Crow Transformation Technique and headed upwards. It was obvious that the Lord of Wind City had been fooled by the Fire Spirit. The emergence of these flames meant that the space of the formation was unstable.
Chu Ning disappeared in a flash of rainbow light. Lao Hei glanced at the golden egg and hesitated for a moment. The next moment, he suddenly rolled up his snake body, wrapped the golden egg, and flew upwards.
Roar! When the fire dragon saw Lao Hei taking away the golden egg, it instantly went berserk. Clusters of flames emerged from all directions, turning into pillars of fire that blocked Lao Hei's way.
Chu Ning, who had already escaped to the upper side, was speechless when he saw Lao Hei trapped below.
Hasn't this guy ever heard the saying that people die for money and birds die for food? Is the temptation of this golden egg so great?
There was no way Chu Ning would let Lao Hei be trapped down there, so he had to use the Golden Crow Transformation Technique again, and his figure appeared next to Lao Hei.
Lao Hei immediately escaped into Chu Ning's body, and the golden egg naturally fell into Chu Ning's hands.
With the golden egg in hand, Chu Ning was about to put it into the storage bag, but found that it couldn't fit in.
This made him look surprised. This was the first time he saw a situation where things could not be put into the storage bag.
"Give me the golden egg!"
Over there, Feng Ange looked pale, but still spoke to Chu Ning with a cold face.
Chu Ning hesitated for a moment, but finally threw the golden elixir to Feng Angge.
Although he likes treasures, this golden egg belongs to the Feng family, and he still can't do something as shameless as Lao Hei.
"Lord Feng, the golden elixir is returned to its original owner. I will leave first."
As the golden egg was thrown out, Chu Ning's figure went upwards again, but the next moment, Chu Ning stopped and looked at the sea of fire above with a grim expression.
The sea of fire surged, blocking the way like a huge wave.
Apparently, the fire spirit had also started to take Chu Ning into consideration.
Outside the city, all the Feng family disciples were looking towards the stone tower in horror. There was disbelief in their eyes as they watched the stone tower being burned by flames.
The stone tower is the symbol of the Feng family.
Having stood on the magma and suppressed the underground fire for so many years, they never imagined that the stone tower would be burned down one day.
Feng Wensu stood on the broken bridge with an anxious look on his face, and the next moment several figures appeared on the broken bridge, all of them were late Jindan cultivators.
With four late Jindan cultivators, the Feng family’s strength far exceeds that of the outside world.
"Second Elder, what's going on?"
"I don't know what happened either, and I have lost contact with the city lord."
Feng Wensu's face was solemn. He gently clapped his right hand, and the flame on the stone tower was extinguished in one place. However, the next moment the flame came back again, even more fiercely than before.
The flames rose, and one of the waves of fire hit the stone bridge. Feng Wensu and the other three changed color and quickly retreated.
The power of this flame was beyond their expectations.
"Evacuate the tribe members and leave Fire Phoenix City immediately."
Feng Wensu gave orders with a serious expression. She couldn't guarantee that the fire wouldn't spread. If the fire really spread, it would be a disaster for Fire Phoenix City.
The two late Jindan masters quickly left to arrange the evacuation, leaving Feng Wensu and another late Jindan cultivator on the stone bridge.
"Fourth sister, join me in setting up the seal to buy time for retreat."
"good."
The remaining late Jindan strongman nodded heavily. If the fire was allowed to escape, Fire Phoenix City would be reduced to ashes in an instant.
…
…
Inside the stone tower.
Chu Ning's face was also extremely ugly. He was harmed by Lao Hei and now he couldn't leave even if he wanted to.
At this moment, the flames were constantly compressing the surrounding space. If this continued, he would be buried in the sea of fire in a quarter of an hour at most.
"Lord Feng, is there any way to save us now?"
Unable to escape, Chu Ning could only hope that the Feng family's city lord had some way to break the impasse.
"To suppress this fire spirit, only Senior Jinwu can do it, but I have lost contact with Senior Jinwu and cannot awaken it."
Feng Ange's words made Chu Ning's eyes narrow, and he said, "Since City Lord Feng has no solution, why not let me give it a try."
"Do you have a solution?"
"It never hurts to try."
Feng Ange looked at Chu Ning deeply, and after a while, he threw the golden egg to Chu Ning again.
After receiving the golden egg, Chu Ning whispered, "I'm sorry to offend this demon beast senior."
Bang! Chu Ning punched the golden egg. Since the normal method could not make contact, he would smash the egg. He believed that if the eggshell was broken, the demon beast elder would definitely be able to sense it.
"stop!"
When Feng Ange saw Chu Ning's actions, he immediately shouted at him.
"Lord Feng, it's already this late. If we don't smash the eggshell and let this demon beast sense it, the final result will be that both of us will be buried in the sea of fire, and this golden egg will fall into the hands of the fire spirit."
After listening to Chu Ning's words, Feng Ange fell silent, because she knew that Chu Ning was right.
Chu Ningke didn't care what Feng Angge was thinking, and punched one after another without hesitation. Every time his punch landed, a golden light flashed on the surface of the golden egg.
"This eggshell is harder than a turtle shell."
Seeing that he couldn’t break it open, Chu Ning used the Mountain Moving Seal.
The mountain appeared and smashed down heavily.
Feng Angge blinked, but Chu Ning didn't dare to tell what Feng Angge was thinking at the moment. The mountain disappeared, and when he saw cracks appear on the golden egg, a look of joy appeared on his face.
As expected, the Mountain Moving Seal is more effective.
Cracks appeared on the golden egg, and a ray of golden light shot out from it. Chu Ning stared at the golden egg intently.
There was a streak of golden light at first, then a whole stripe, and the next moment the entire golden egg shell shattered, and a three-legged turkey broke out of the shell.
Three-legged Turkey was the name given by Chu Ning.
The monster that came out of the eggshell looked exactly like a chicken, had three legs, and emitted a faint flame all over its body.
"Cry!" A high-pitched cry came from the turkey's mouth, and the next moment the turkey turned into a beam of golden light that shot into Feng Ange's brow.
Feng Ange's momentum suddenly rose, and the fire spirit bound by chains seemed to sense the danger and struggled frantically. Every struggle made the surrounding sea of fire surge violently.
The fire spirit seemed to know that if it did not use flames to devour this space, it would bring danger to itself.
Chu Ning turned his gaze to Feng Ange. Now hope rested on Feng Ange.
After a while, Feng Ange opened his eyes, and there were flames burning in his phoenix eyes.
Those were a pair of eyes devoid of emotion.
"You, damn it!"
Feng Angge uttered something softly, and Chu Ning's expression changed instantly. Damn it, this three-legged turkey knew about Lao Hei's previous actions.
"Senior, we are facing a powerful enemy. We should deal with this fire spirit first."
When Chu Ning saw the fire spirit's gloating expression, he immediately chose to divert the blame.
The Fire Spirit's body trembled. He didn't expect that this human was more shameless than himself. But it was obvious that Chu Ning's trick worked, because Feng Angge's gaze turned to the Fire Spirit.
"collapse!"
Feng Ange shouted softly, and a scorching sun appeared behind her. This scorching sun actually tore the sea of fire apart, and wherever the sunlight shone, all the flames dissipated.
Roar! The fire spirit roared, and the two horns on its head flew out at this moment, transforming into two purple flying swords in the air.
One of the purple flying swords dissipated under the sunlight before it got close to Feng Angge, but the other flying sword reached Feng Angge.
At the same time, the fire spirit's huge body twisted, and the untied dragon tail suddenly swelled and slapped the scorching sun behind Feng Angge.
Chu Ning was struck by this scene. He realized that the Fire Spirit had not tried his best before. What a fool.
