"What the hell are you?
How dare you, a guy who is neither human nor ghost, come to bother me?
roll!"
Taotie's violent temper can hardly be suppressed.
Once a top-level ancient beast enters a combat posture, its ferocious aura and bloodthirsty and violent instincts will greatly expand. The appearance of Tuoba Hong forced Taotie to block the rhythm of devouring the source of spiritual power in the space, which further angered this prehistoric-level boss.
With a curse, Taotie slapped the air with its huge front claws, unleashing the most primitive destructive force, almost shaking the critical point of this ancient battlefield!
You know, the reason why the ancient dragon-slaying battlefield has been able to isolate itself from the endless deep-sea pressure for tens of thousands of years deep under the sea is because it is maintained by the true dragon domain remaining in the temple.
After all, the complete dragon source in Mu Qingtian's body was not broken, so the true dragon soul was not completely annihilated, and the domain naturally continued to exist.
This claw of Taotie can make the entire realm of god-level true dragons tremble, which shows how terrifying the complete form of Taotie is.
However, Tuoba Hong did not seem to be too nervous. This guy was born in the Ghost Shadow Shura lineage, and speed was his greatest asset. Now that his speed had been improved to its peak state, his speed had reached a new level. Theoretically speaking, he was the one who could most restrain Taotie among all the people present.
The attack missed and Taotie became furious. He let out a loud roar. The terrifying sound waves locked onto the void for a short period of time, limiting Tuoba Hong's ability to move.
The powerful devouring instinct was activated at this moment. Taotie actually used his mental power to lock onto Tuoba Hong's breath and concentrated on devouring him as a single target. This is also one of Taotie's strongest single-target offensive skills.
In fact, Taotie does not hate Xu Yang or the Empress too much. The Empress is the ruler of the Hanyue Empire, and her ancestors had a bond with Taotie.
And Xu Yang was the important leader who indirectly opened the Dragon's Hidden Gate for Taotie. Without Xu Yang, Taotie would not have been able to get this extremely precious opportunity. Moreover, as a prehistoric ancestor beast, Taotie was in awe of the fact that the human race had such a brilliant figure as Xu Yang. Unless it was absolutely necessary, Taotie did not want to be their enemy, so he never took action against the dozen or so hostages.
In comparison, Tuoba Hong seems too undignified. In the eyes of the Taotie boss, this guy is just an insignificant ant. He dared to come in and covet Long Yuan. The Taotie's most clear attitude is to wipe him out forcefully.
"Damn, what a terrifying devouring power!"
Tuoba Hong swallowed deeply, seeing that he was about to lose control of his body, Tuoba Hong gritted his teeth, suddenly made a seal with both hands, and released his extremely powerful peak strength in advance!
"Shura Secret - Six Paths, Rashomon!"
In an instant, Tuoba Hong's pupils suddenly turned scarlet blood, and a huge blood-colored light gate totem appeared behind him!
With the appearance of this strange phenomenon, the spiritual power in Tuoba Hong's body burned madly, and a materialized blood-colored aura spread out, quickly covering the entire bare dragon-slaying battlefield.
All the restless spiritual power sources in the air were affected by this bloody breath. Those spiritual power elements drifting in the void were given the belief of rebirth in this strong bloody breath!
Each strand of spiritual power was frantically searching for its former host, which was similar to the magic circle that Tuoba Hong had used on Xu Yang and the others before. These six Rashomon mysteries seemed to have evolved the most complete method of resurrecting corpses of the Ghost Shadow Shura lineage.
What's even more terrifying is that under the influence of the Rashomon anomaly, the souls of those who died more than 6,000 years ago and inherited the Ghost Shadow Shura lineage were also summoned out!
As long as the space contains the spiritual power that once belonged to them, these undead spirits can regain their ferocious brilliance under the guidance of the Shura power!
In a moment, one dead soul after another began to awaken, transforming into blood-red transparent corpse souls, surrounding the Taotie on the battlefield.
Hundreds and thousands of dead souls transformed into Tuoba Hong's puppets in front of Rashomon Gate, releasing the most terrifying soul pressure, bringing a real threat to this ancient beast!
"Hahaha!
Taotie, what's your attitude?
Didn’t you just call me a lowly ant?
I want you to understand that even an ant can become the master who crushes your dignity!
The Ghost Shadow Shura lineage will flourish again in my hands!"
Hearing Tuoba Hong's arrogant and wanton shouting, Xu Yang gradually understood this guy's real purpose.
"I see……
Tuoba Hong's real purpose is not to obtain the Dragon Source, but the Taotie's inner elixir is what he wants most!"
Xu Yang's words caused the empress to glance sideways again. Looking at the strong man with a serious brow in front of her chest, the empress couldn't help but ask questions.
"You mean, Tuoba Hong needs the power of Taotie to make up for the shortcomings of his own Shura lineage skills?"
"good.
The Ghost Shadow Shura lineage is roughly divided into two training directions: controlling souls and using poison, and surpassing the limits of body movements and instant killing abilities.
There is no doubt that Rashomon is the ultimate secret of the former's practice direction.
But the flaws of this technique are also obvious. It consumes a lot of spiritual power, and it is almost constantly burning spiritual power to maintain output.
If he could obtain the inner elixir of Taotie and acquire some of the talents of the ancient beast, he could use the devouring method to practice and make up for the most fatal shortcomings of his own skills. It can be said that the innate magical powers of the Taotie lineage, combined with the practice of Ghost Shadow Shura's skills, are simply perfect!"
Xu Yang's words cleared up the doubts in the empress's heart.
Rashomon uses burning spiritual power to control the souls of the dead to fight, while Taotie has the talent to devour spiritual power for his own use. One in and one out, they form a perfect cycle in the combat system.
If this plan can really succeed, in the future Tuoba Hong only needs to get some protective magic weapons of sufficient strength to prevent being killed instantly by powerful offensive monks, such as sword practitioners. Then he will be invincible in the battle against all kinds of monks below the Tribulation Realm and become a true new generation of Shura demon!
The more people are killed, the more souls Rashomon can control, and naturally the more spiritual energy it devours. Once this heaven-defying cultivation system matures, it will be an unimaginable disaster for the entire Three Thousand Dao States!
"Oh no, this Tuoba Hong might become a new variable!
If he really took away Taotie's inner elixir, I'm afraid even I would find it difficult to control him in a short period of time!"
Xu Yang assessed the situation and had to change his battle plan. With Tuoba Hong's joining, Mu Qingtian and Long Yuan were temporarily safe. The most urgent task was to find a way to interrupt the continuous performance of Rashomon's secret and take control of the situation into his own hands!
