Chapter 410: Dragon Whip, Moon-Gathering Officer
Gong Mengbi chanted the spell, stretched out his hand and clenched it, and the Taixu evil wind that wrapped the black dragon into a silkworm cocoon continued to shrink, causing the black dragon's scales to crack and blood to splatter everywhere.
The Taoists around retreated one after another, fearing that blood would splatter on their bodies when they killed the dragon.
However, a Taoist who was refining pills quietly asked Taoist Xiao, "Brother, if the Immortal Jin Ting kills this black dragon, can he extract some of the dragon's blood to make pills?"
Taoist Xiao glared at him, and the Taoist alchemist retreated angrily and left the Golden Palace.
Taoist Xiao dismissed everyone and didn't want them to gather here to watch the fun. Firstly, the Great Immortal Jin Ting's methods were cruel and not suitable for others to watch. Secondly, it was impossible to really kill the Black Dragon. If the Black Dragon knew that so many people were watching his miserable appearance, trouble might arise again.
The evil wind from Taixu penetrated through the gaps in the scales, and the black dragon turned into a blood dragon.
Young Taoist Chong Jing hid behind Taoist Xiao. Although he was angry at the Black Dragon's mischief, he couldn't bear to see him suffer like this.
Taoist Xiao took Chong Jing out.
Cai Leiguan rolled on the ground in pain, constantly using his dragon power to resist the Taixu evil wind. The two fought against each other and almost tore off his scales.
The black dragon was in so much pain that he dropped his head to the ground and begged for mercy from the Immortal Jin Ting. He truly felt the ruthlessness and cruelty of this fox demon.
Jin Ting Daxian didn't really want to kill him. If he killed him, who would do the hard labor?
After punishing him, he stretched out his hand and grabbed in the air. The black evil wind from the void gathered in his hand, continuously entwined around it, and finally turned into a shiny dragon whip.
The Immortal Jin Ting held the dragon-beating whip in his hand and whipped it lightly, which caused a terrible shrieking sound that made people feel dizzy and their minds lost.
Although Gong Mengbi could use the Eight Winds Method to stimulate the Taixu Evil Wind, he still had no way to gather the invisible wind into a whip. He had to hide the silk strings of the Sky Net in it and use the method of impeaching gods as the core to condense the invisible evil wind into a tangible dragon-beating whip.
This whip was not made specifically for beating dragons. The method of impeaching gods can impeach and punish all gods and spirits, not just dragons.
When the whip sounded, the thunder official was frightened again and shrank back, hiding in the corner.
The Immortal Jin Ting asked, "Grandmaster Cai Lei, you said that the victim has come to you. How about I hand you over to the Taihu God for disposal?"
The Thunder Collector's expression immediately changed. He said, "Great Immortal, please spare my life. If you hand me over to the Taihu God, I will surely die. I am still useful and can collect the essence of heavenly thunder for you. Great Immortal, please spare my life!"
Jin Ting Daxian snorted coldly and said, "If you can't even handle a small matter, what use are you to me?"
The mine officer bowed his head and said, "That old fellow was too cunning. He was very good at pretending to be dead. He fooled me."
Jin Ting Daxian played with the dragon whip in his hand, narrowed his eyes, and said, "Forget it, go get the pearl."
The Thunder Officer asked, "Great Immortal, do you want to return the pearl?"
The Immortal Jin Ting said, "If you don't return it, we'll have to see what the Pearl says. But how can we easily return something we've already got? If we spread the news, wouldn't that mean I'm afraid of the Taihu God?"
The Thunder Officer, covered in bruises, went to look for the Taoist boy Chong Jing. The boy was worried about him, but when he saw Chong Jing alive, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Great! I thought the Immortal Jin Ting was going to kill you."
The mine officer glared at him and asked, "Where's my red clam?"
Chong Jing was kind enough to be ignored, so he took out the red clam from the box and threw it to the mine officer, saying, "Take it."
The black dragon took the red clam and left without looking back. He stuck out his tongue and made a weird "lululu" sound at Jing, then snorted, "The Immortal Jin Ting will just kill you!"
The Thunder Officer didn't care about the little Taoist boy's thoughts. He held the clam shell and went to look for Gong Mengbi. When he saw Gong Mengbi, he knocked on the clam shell and said, "Miss Zhuzi, come out quickly."
The red clam didn't move, so the black dragon frowned and gradually exerted force on his hands. Layers of frost seeped from the outside of the clam shell to the inside. Even if the pearl could withstand it, the red clam could not, so it could only open its two doors and spit out the pearl.
The bright pearl shone brightly, and it turned in the air, transforming into a young girl. When she saw the Immortal Jin Ting, she showed a bit of embarrassment.
The Immortal Jin Ting said, "Today the old turtle from the Taihu Water Palace came and wanted to take you back. What did you say? Do you want to go back to the Water Palace?"
The girl's face turned pale immediately. She suddenly prostrated herself before the Immortal Jin Ting and said, "I beg you to have mercy on me, Your Majesty, and not send me back to the Water Palace."
Jin Ting Daxian just looked at her calmly and made her understand that if she didn't explain the reason, he would not care about her.
The girl could only reveal everything, saying, "My name is Langru. I live with my mother and sister in Chaoyin Cave. When I practice, I just swim by the water and watch the moon. I have always been low-key and never give people trouble."
"Unfortunately, disaster struck. While my mother and I were cultivating, we radiated brilliance and were targeted by the dragons from the surrounding lakes and streams. They would come to disturb us every now and then, trying to snatch us away. Fortunately, my mother was very powerful and was able to protect us. Until last year, a blue dragon appeared from nowhere and fought a fierce battle with my mother. I cut off its claws, but it injured me and took the opportunity to snatch me away."
"I missed my mother terribly, and I didn't know the extent of her injuries, so I refused to release my light. Unable to coerce me, the Azure Dragon sold me to other dragons. After several twists and turns, I ended up in the hands of Du Heng, the Crown Prince of the Taihu Water Palace. Du Heng was uneducated, narrow-minded, and a truly mischievous individual. To force me to release my light, he imprisoned my spirit with the demon-catching net and deprived me of food and water. I could endure it, but the Red Clam couldn't. His cultivation declined several times, forcing me to release his light."
"They all outweigh me. They show off and feast every day, which angered the Taihu Lake God, who took me away to be guarded by the old turtle."
Langru looked at the red clam with a touch of sorrow and pity. She gently stroked it and said, "He is loyal to me, but to protect me, he has gradually lost his spiritual power. If I return to Taihu Lake and fall into Du Heng's hands, not only will he be doomed, but I will also never be free again."
"My king, I beg you to have mercy on me and send me home. My mother will surely reward me handsomely."
The Immortal Jin Ting glanced at Chi Bang, then at Lang Ru, and said, "I don't expect a generous reward from you, but I do have something I need you to do for me."
Langru opened his eyes wide, but became happy instead, and said, "Please give your instructions, Your Majesty."
The Immortal Jin Ting said, "I wish to cultivate the power of thunder, so I have asked the Thunder Collector to help me gather the essence of heavenly thunder. Now I need to refine a divine sword, and I hope you can help me gather the essence of the Taiyin."
Lang Ru nodded quickly and said, "I was conceived by my mother from the moon's essence. I was born with the ability to absorb the essence of the moon. I am willing to serve the king."
The Immortal Jin Ting nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, from now on, you will be my Moon-Choosing Officer. Don't worry, once my divine sword is refined, I will send you back to Chaoyin Cave to find your mother."
Looking at the girl Langru's grateful expression, Cai Leiguan showed deep pity in his eyes.
