Chapter 288 Divine Weapon Recognizes Its Master
After respectfully responding, the Demon Flame Flood Dragon suddenly plunged into the large hole, its massive body disappearing into the lava without a sound.
After pondering for a moment, Ye Luo secretly activated a talisman under her sleeve, just in case.
A moment later, everyone felt a sudden tremor as the ground beneath them cracked open, spewing out scalding magma. Startled, they scattered and fled on their swords.
The lava seemed to come alive, swirling towards Yeluo, when a triumphant laugh rang out.
"Foolish human, do you think I would submit?!"
The demonic flame dragon, with a human body and a dragon's tail, took out a long, crimson spear. It poured all its power into the spear, and instantly, the crimson spear suddenly unleashed a terrifying power, possessing the force of a thousand pounds.
Ye Luo sensed the long spear, which faintly exuded an ancient aura; it was indeed an ancient divine weapon.
"Hahaha, didn't you want this divine weapon? I'll give it to you right now!"
After saying that, it hurled itself towards Yeluo, and the howling wind it stirred up caused the people in the distance to gasp in surprise.
The Azure Dragon suddenly swooped down, instantly shielding Ye Luo and erecting a defensive barrier unique to the dragon race.
However, what happened next did not go as everyone expected.
Suddenly, the crimson spear made a sharp turn and flew towards Yu Qianling with a whoosh. Yu Xuan, who was standing to the side, was startled and immediately shielded her behind him.
However, the spear showed no intention of harming her; it stood obediently in the air, leaving everyone dumbfounded.
"What's going on?"
"Why does it feel like...it's recognizing me as its master?"
Yu Qianling was also taken aback. She patted Yu Xuan's shoulder, signaling him to remove the protective shield in front of him, and hesitantly reached out and grasped it.
Suddenly, a red light appeared, and a surge of powerful energy erupted. The runes surrounding the gun shattered instantly, revealing layers of interwoven feather patterns.
Suddenly, a clear, childlike voice rang out, "Woo-woo, Master...you've finally arrived!"
Yu Qianling looked completely bewildered. She exchanged a glance with Yu Xuan beside her, looked at the crimson spear in her hand, and asked, "Was it you who spoke?"
"Uh-huh!"
Yu Xuan looked somewhat surprised. After pondering for a moment, he asked, "Are you the spirit of the artifact?"
"Yes, that's right!"
This thrilled Yu Qianling. It was the first time she had ever encountered a spiritual artifact with sentience. She coughed lightly and said, "Since you call me master, you'll be coming with me from now on."
“The Phoenix Scale Spear originally belonged to its master, so naturally I should go with my master.”
"Huh?" Yu Qianling was completely confused, but since the gun was willing to go with her, nothing else mattered.
She stroked the spear with obvious delight, exclaiming, "What a fine spear! Not bad at all! This trip was definitely worthwhile, hahaha!"
The Demon Flame Flood Dragon exclaimed in disbelief, "Impossible... How could this be! It has been sealed away for ten thousand years and has long been ownerless. How could it recognize you as its master!"
"Didn't you hear? It says it's mine!"
Yu Qianling smiled freely, his spiritual power filling the Phoenix Scale Spear in his hand. Instantly, a red spear array appeared in the air, and a phoenix with dazzling fire feathers flew out, its phoenix eyes staring at it fiercely.
The Demon Flame Flood Dragon stared at this familiar scene, its pale face filled with terror. "How could it be... it's you!"
Ten thousand years ago, it was a weak little snake that survived in the cracks of rocks and was fortunate enough to witness the great battle that took place ten thousand years ago.
"Huh? What nonsense! How dare you plot against my junior brother? You'd better just die!" As soon as Yu Qianling finished speaking, the fire phoenix in the sky attacked it, and the flames burned its body again.
Despair filled the eyes of the Demon Flame Dragon. It was already at its last gasp, and after a few miserable howls, it breathed its last.
The aroma of roasted meat made the two fire lizards flap their wings excitedly. Ye Luo jumped off Hong Bao's back and laughed, "Go eat, and dig out its demon core for me."
"roar!"
Upon hearing this, the two fire lizards charged towards the demonic fire dragon, and a moment later threw over a golden demon core.
Ye Luo took the tenth-tier demon core, feeling the powerful demonic energy contained within it, and said with satisfaction, "Not bad, not bad, it can be used as some snacks for the kids."
At this moment, the little azure dragon wrapped around Ye Luo's wrist swallowed the demon core in his hand, which made him very anxious: "Hey, what are you doing?!"
The little dragon pursed its lips and spat out more than a dozen small pills. Ye Luo picked one up and examined it closely, discovering that it had already refined its demonic power, making it even more suitable for him to eat.
"You're thoughtful." Ye Luo took one and swallowed it, then with a flick of his sleeve, he collected the demon core that had been refined in the air. At this moment, he noticed that everyone was looking at him, their eyes filled with astonishment.
"Why don't you try some too?"
Upon hearing this, everyone's expression froze, and they shook their heads repeatedly in refusal. If a cultivator were to ingest a demon core carelessly, at best their spiritual veins would be damaged, and at worst they could explode and die.
Ye Luo just ate it like that, and it was even the demon core of a tenth-level demon beast. How could this not shock them?
"Are you...are you really alright?" Qingyu asked.
"Do I look like something's wrong?" Ye Luo gave a wry smile. An ordinary person might have already exploded and died, but these seven kids were too greedy, so this was only enough for them as a snack.
Upon hearing this, the crowd began to murmur amongst themselves. Lü Xuan swallowed hard as she looked at Ye Luo, feeling incredibly fortunate that she hadn't offended him.
Bai Ruoqian's experience taught her one thing: fewer enemies mean more chances of survival.
She doesn't expect to have friends everywhere, but at least she doesn't want to be surrounded by enemies.
Lu Xuan looked at Ye Luo in the distance and stepped forward, saying, "Senior Brother..."
Yang Shen looked at Lü Xuan beside him, who seemed hesitant to speak, and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"I heard that Ye Luo used to be a disciple of our Tianfeng Sect. What is his personality like? Is he easy to get along with?"
Why are you asking this?
Lü Xuan smiled awkwardly, "I was just a little curious."
"Him..."
Yang Shen paused and sighed, "He used to be a bit soft-hearted and very easy to get along with. But later, due to some changes... when I saw him again, his personality had changed drastically, and he was no longer the same person he used to be. But he was still an easy person to get along with."
“Oh…” Lu Xuan seemed to be deep in thought, and muttered to herself, “So, this ‘fellow villager’ is someone I can make friends with.”
As fellow travelers from different worlds, perhaps only the other could understand the loneliness in their hearts.
