Chapter 498: Good Luck Begins

In the Fire Persimmon Mountain.

The battle to encircle and suppress the Ten Thousand Year Old Fire Spirit has reached the most critical moment.

"Oh no, it's about to escape, catch it!" Zhou Nongying exclaimed.

The magic circle that encircled the fire spirit had cracks all over it because it had borne too much of the aftermath of the battle.

After a fierce battle, the Ten Thousand Year Fire Spirit's condition hit rock bottom, his fighting spirit and morale dropped drastically, he didn't want to fight anymore, and chose to flee.

Zhou Nongying chased after it.

Ning Jufan and the second Jindan ancestor of the Zhou family surrounded them from the left and right.

Just as he was about to miss the chance and the Ten Thousand Year Fire Spirit escaped, a walnut suddenly shot down from the sky.

The walnut scattered green light and hit the top of the head of the Eternal Fire Spirit.

Seeing this scene, Ning Jiufan's eyes twitched and he subconsciously slowed down his pace.

Another Jindan ancestor of the Zhou family was the first to kill to the side of the Ten Thousand Year Fire Spirit.

The ten thousand year old fire spirit lay motionless, falling into the lava, floating up and down.

"Oops." Ning Jiufan secretly said that it was not good. He remembered Ning Zhuo's instructions, and the latter really needed this ten thousand year old fire spirit.

Now it has fallen into the hands of Zhou family's Jindan. If you want to redeem it, it will definitely cost more.

Just when Ning was giving in and blaming himself, the Ten Thousand Year Fire Spirit suddenly opened his eyes and launched a fatal attack.

Boom! A terrifying explosion occurred, and the magma formed a huge wave in an instant.

In an instant, the Zhou family's Jindan ancestor was engulfed in blazing flames all over.

He let out a shrill scream.

In an instant, all the defensive measures he activated were burned to ashes, and his clothes and armor turned to nothing.

The flesh and blood were instantly annihilated in the orange-red flames, and the exposed skeleton was burnt into charcoal, crumbling piece by piece.

After just two breaths, a Jindan cultivator disappeared into thin air.

After killing the enemy, the Ten Thousand Year Fire Spirit's body became dim and almost shrunk to the size of a fist.

Ning Jufan followed closely with a wary look on his face, and used talismans to seal it successfully.

"I got the Ten Thousand Years Fire Essence!"

“That was a close call…”

Even after a long and fierce battle and being in a volcano, Ning Jufan felt a chill in his heart.

If he hadn't hesitated just now, he would probably be the one in trouble now.

From beginning to end, Meng Kui, who had been sitting on the throne of the Lava Fairy Palace, slowly closed his eyes and no longer looked at the volcanic battlefield.

He looked unhappy and felt regretful.

In order to avoid suspicion, he never participated in the battle in person, just to prevent the Zhu family from pursuing him later.

Ning surrendered is his main goal. Meng Kui smashed the walnut and secretly stopped, so the injury of the ten thousand year fire spirit was not so serious.

In this battle, Ning Jufan stood out very conspicuously, even though there was a Nascent Soul level cultivator like Lin Bufan joining the battle beside him.

"His demon pet, the Fire-Melting Demon Ape, seems to have also started practicing..."

"well."

Meng Kui sighed secretly.

At the critical moment just now, Ning Jufan hesitated for a step, causing him to miss the final counterattack of the Ten Thousand Year Fire Spirit and causing Meng Kui's plan to fail.

Of course, Meng Kui did not gain nothing either - the Zhou family lost a Jindan cultivator.

"If I had been able to successfully weaken Ning Jiufan's luck before, he would have definitely suffered."

"What magic weapon does he have that can protect his fate?"

"Was it secretly given to him by the Nandou royal family?"

No wonder Meng Kui made such a guess.

Because before that, he had used the Peach Blossom Core to smash Ning Jiufan's head, and the effect was very obvious.

At that time, Ning Jufan obviously had no magic weapon to protect his luck.

Lin Bufan took a deep breath and cast the spell again.

The oscillating magma quickly calmed down under his magic.

The formation slowly opened.

Zhou Nongying had a sad look on his face as he flew over to meet Ning Jiufan and Lin Bufan.

He had no time to mourn the death of his fellow cultivators, and had already begun to speculate on the future situation in Huoshi Xiancheng.

After the battle at Lava Fairy Palace, the Zheng family was eliminated, and the Ning family occupied the Zheng family's land, rising rapidly to become the primary force under the City Lord's Mansion.

Generally speaking, as an old family in Huoshi Xiancheng, the Zhou family would suppress latecomers like the Ning family.

However, the situation in Huoshixian City is very special.

The Meng family intends to invade this place and is a more pressing and powerful enemy.

Previously, due to Zhu Xuanji's tactics, the Zhou, Zheng and Ning families had formed an alliance with the royal family, making it difficult for the Zhou family to change its ways.

Under such circumstances, the Ning family received strong support from the Zhu family, making it difficult for the Zhou family to take action.

In addition, the Ning family had Ning Zhuo, an extraordinary son who showed a golden elixir-level combat power in the battle of Lava Fairy Palace. In addition, Ning Jiufan's own strong combat power made it even more impossible for the Zhou family to take action.

Therefore, after Ning Zhuo separated from the family, Zhou Nongying personally visited and showed goodwill, asking the Zhou family cultivators to take the initiative to help Ning Zhuo set up the formation.

The above are the situations in which the two Jindan of Zhou family are still alive.

Today, Zhou Nongying is the only Jindan left in the Zhou family. The situation of the Zhou family has deteriorated further, and its strength has been greatly damaged. It is very likely that the Zhou family will become a vassal of the Ning family.

Outside Huoshi Mountain.

Shen Lingshu and Zhu Xuanji also learned the outcome of the battle.

"The ten thousand year old fire essence finally fell into Ning Jiufan's hands. Ning Zhuo is indeed the son who is destined to be calamity. His destiny is so strong that it is astonishing." Shen Lingshu sighed.

Zhu Xuanji pondered and said, "Meng Kui succeeded after all. The Zhou family lost a golden elixir cultivator, and our strength in Huoshi Xiancheng has declined a lot."

"From now on, the Ning family will be the main force hindering Meng Kui."

"It seems that we need to increase support for the Ning family."

Shen Lingshu nodded in agreement and smiled, "I just helped Ning Jiufan gain more luck, so it is only natural that he has our help."

Zhu Xuanji: "Let's not talk about anything else, just talking about the Wanyao Sect, the Ning family is a close ally of my Zhu family. Alas, if Ning Zhuo was not the son of calamity, it would be much easier for us to act."

After the two of them exchanged some words, they hid their figures and quietly approached the Huoshi Xiancheng.

Two countries.

Canglin Fairy City.

Three generals camp.

"Which!" The mount Liu Er was riding suddenly stumbled and stepped into a pit.

Liu Er was training his troops with all his strength when he was caught off guard and was thrown to the ground as his horse fell.

Although Liu Er stood up quickly, he made quite a noise and the soldiers gathered around to check.

"Brother, are you okay?" Zhang Hei ran over first and asked with concern.

"I'm fine." Liu Er shook his head and looked at the ground with a frown.

Guan Hong also rode over and after inspecting the scene, he breathed a sigh of relief: "There was a hidden pit on the ground and the horse's hoof just happened to step on it."

Liu Er trained his troops for a long time, cooperating with the soldiers and constantly practicing battle formations, so that his horse was exhausted and fell to the ground after stepping into a hidden pit.

Liu Er fell down as well because he concentrated almost all his energy on organizing the battle formation, so he was unable to react in time.

Liu Er patted his armor, took up his horse, and rode back on: "Continue training!"

At his command, the three generals' battalions began training again.

However, Liu Er kept frowning, feeling as if there was a big void in his heart.

"What on earth is causing this terrible feeling?"

"Could it be that Mulan is forcing Ning Zhuo to practice dual cultivation?"

"So is the military advisor! He leaves the camp day after day and never shows up."

"Ah, if I had promised him a place before, he would be training his mechanical soldiers here now, right?"

Ning Zhuo has already entered the world of the Wandering Dragon.

He slowly raised his head, straightened his upper body, and stopped hunching over his desk.

On the desk in front of him were layers of blueprints, all of which depicted various mechanical structures.

Canglin Fairy City.

"Dear guest, please take care." The shop assistant said goodbye to Ning Zhuo respectfully.

Ning Zhuo walked out of the library leisurely.

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

He had just entered the Quanshu Building to select a technique for Meng Yehu.

Meng Yehu's spirituality is higher than Yuan Dasheng's, and he can practice martial arts. Ning Zhuo carefully selected this trip and finally chose a martial arts for Meng Yehu.

This technique is closely related to Meng Yehu's talent, and is called the Night Walking Back Stab Chart.

After returning to Wanli Youlong, Ning Zhuo immersed himself in designing a mechanical body for Meng Yehu.

In all the design drafts, Meng Yehu has a tiger head and a human body, trying to match the spirituality and restore his original appearance.

Ning Zhuo mainly designed a mechanical body for him based on his natural talent, Night Shadow Yin Sha.

In terms of materials, Ghost Shadow Bamboo is the most suitable. After all, it is the companion of Night Shadow Evil.

But Ning Zhuo didn't have many ghost bamboos in his hand, and this kind of treasure was relatively rare, so he would not use it now. Ning Zhuo had already decided to use other treasures first and consider it when the time was right.

"I don't know much about Night Shadow Evil, and Meng Yehu's technique was Night Walking Stab Back Diagram, which has nothing to do with the Five Elements."

Ning Zhuo thought about it for a long time and his head felt a little dizzy.

One solution is to use the Ghost Shadow Talisman as the main one. Whenever Meng Yehu uses his natural Night Shadow Yin Sha, the Ghost Shadow Talisman will be triggered, forming countless dark ghosts, instantly forming an army of dozens of people. They can bully the few with the many, oh no, they can launch a just siege.

The second option is to use mechanical parts to change the form of the Night Shadow Evil, turning it into evil energy all over the sky, corroding powerful enemies, creating visual and mental illusions for the enemies, and confusing reality.

The third option is to place a knife array on Meng Yehu's body. Once triggered, it will form thousands of night shadow blades, which can cut the enemy to death.

The fourth option is to make full use of the Night Assassin map and equip Meng Yehu with a set of mechanical accessories, so that it can double its speed in dark environments, dodge like a ghost, and be unpredictable.

The fifth option is to set up the Netherworld Soul Binding Array, with this array as the core, in conjunction with the Night Shadow Evil, to bind the enemy's soul. As the number of bound souls increases, Meng Yehu's combat power will also increase.

The sixth option...

The seventh type...

The eighth type...

Ning Zhuo came up with more than twenty plans, which made him dizzy and unable to make a decision.

"It's really unrealistic to try them one by one."

"The funds I have are not enough to support such an extravagant experiment."

"You have to choose the most suitable solution."

But here's where it gets awkward.

Ning Zhuo doesn’t know what is the most appropriate one.

His words don’t count. The answer to this question can only be known through testing in the real battlefield.

"well!"

Ning Zhuo sighed deeply, stood up and wanted to go out for some fresh air.

As a result, this action knocked over the desk and various design drawings were scattered on the ground.

Ning Zhuo was about to lean over to pick it up, but suddenly his movements froze because he saw five or six drawings scattered on the ground, which were just enough to build a complete Meng Yehu shape.

More importantly, after Ning Zhuo's mental calculation, this combination plan is really good and has a high chance of success.

"What a lucky guy!"

The more Ning Zhuo thought about it, the more he felt that this plan was excellent. He immediately decided: "Let's use this plan!"

Ning Zhuo acted decisively and immediately flew out of the Mechanical Dragon and went shopping in all the major markets and shops in Canglin Fairy City. He spent a large number of spirit stones in exchange for the precious materials he wanted.

"Thanks to this war!"

"Canglin Immortal City has been built into a strong rear base, so you can buy what you want here."

"If it were the usual Canglin Immortal City, there wouldn't be so many varieties of precious materials."

While Ning Zhuo was working hard for Meng Yehu, Sun Lingtong was lying in the fetal breathing spirit boat, bored.

"Although this cultivation method has many advantages, there is one thing that makes me extremely dissatisfied!"

“This is so boring!”

Sun Lingtong felt bored and became more and more impatient, so he began to move essence and blood randomly, wanting to assist the natural and earth-nourishing fetal breathing method.

result……

The essence and blood rushed through his body, causing him immediate trauma.

The internal organs were damaged and heavy bleeding began in the body.

"Oops, that's bad."

"Xiao Zhuo, save me."

The blood rushed up and immediately blocked Sun Lingtong's mouth and nose.

He gradually suffocated, and at this moment, he suddenly had an inspiration and gained a deeper understanding of the "Great Method of Natural and Earthly Nourishing the Fetus".

"I see."

Sun Lingtong was overjoyed, with a sense of sudden enlightenment, and her heart was filled with the joy of sudden realization.

The next moment, the scriptures of the Tianshengdi Yangtaixi Dafa shone with even greater brilliance.

Sun Lingtong not only escaped danger, but also doubled his efficiency.

After Ning Zhuo selected the precious materials, he did not refine them himself, but found Jin Li again.

He wanted to ask Jinli for help in processing these precious materials and building some mechanical parts.

Jinli laughed: "Little friend Ning, you came at the right time. The capital has sent several weapon refiners to help me."

"They just arrived yesterday and are coming to my place to refine weapons today."

"You will ask, tell them."

"Based on their abilities, although they are not as good as me, they will definitely be able to help you accomplish this."

Ning Zhuo bowed to express his gratitude and gave Jinli a piece of precious material as a thank you gift.

Jinli laughed loudly and patted Ning Zhuo's shoulder excitedly: "My dear Ning Zhuo, you are so polite. I'm sorry for the expense."

People who are willing to spend money are mostly popular.

With the help of Jinli's subordinates, Ning Zhuo obtained all the semi-finished products that evening.

"There is strength in numbers. If I rely on myself alone, it will take at least half a year to reach this level."

Ning Zhuo feels that spending money on gifts is well worth it.

He simply stayed up all night to build all the parts of the mechanism.

The body of Meng Yehu has a vague outline.

When Ning Zhuo took out Meng Yehu's spiritual ball and placed it back in, shortly after, the mechanism of Meng Yehu opened by itself.

He did not look around, nor did he check his new body. Instead, he bowed deeply to Ning Zhuo and said in a low voice: "Father God!"
