Chapter 504 Re-entering the Heavenly Demon Bone Forest: The Treacherous Demon Lord
If this becomes widespread, the number of Nascent Soul cultivators in the Demonic Path will increase again. At least two Nascent Soul Grand Perfection cultivators in the Joyful Union Demonic Sect and the Underworld Mountain Sect will be restricted from entering the sect due to inheritance limitations.
Such beings are similar to the Master of the Yellow Springs Temple.
He has reached the limit of his limits, and can be considered a half-step Nascent Soul cultivator. His combat power has long surpassed that of a normal Great Perfection cultivator. What he lacks is... an opportunity.
Attention is returning to the field.
The various killing weapons around him, their eyes gleaming with murderous intent, were clearly aimed at Xie Xie'an.
The man slammed both hands down on the ground.
The earth seemed to transform into a surging river, the waves of which sent the killing weapons flying in all directions, but with the help of the Earth Wave spell, the members of Old Deng's team instantly regrouped.
Xie Xie'an opened his mouth and spat out an oval leaf as thin as a cicada's wing, which quickly grew larger. Everyone was already used to this.
Without being reminded, it jumped onto the leaf magic weapon.
This thing is close to the ground, like a sled sliding down a snow-capped peak. Even though it's flat ground and there's no pushing force, it can still slide out.
With a soft slur, he slipped out of the encirclement of killing weapons.
A moment later, a loud sonic boom rang out.
This was one of Xie Xie'an's responses to the no-fly zone in the Desolate Ancient Plains. If flying wasn't allowed, then gliding on the ground would suffice, as long as the speed was fast enough and the terrain wasn't too complex.
It's quite mobile, but it's not very durable.
It is made from the veins of a mulberry leaf called "Earth God Mulberry" combined with yellow jade silk. It is very expensive, but it wears out very quickly with each use and has a low probability of being repaired.
He would feel heartbroken for a long time after using it just once.
This time, in order to avoid being surrounded by killing weapons, we had no choice but to take it out.
Not long after.
The blades that were gliding at supersonic speed on the ground gradually came to a stop. After everyone got off the magical artifact, Xie Xie'an looked at the artifact, which had already developed several holes, and sighed inwardly.
Knowing that this was not the time to dwell on this, he quickly turned his gaze to Wujin and Qianyuan and asked the latter.
"How is Senior Wujin? Is there any sign of recovery?"
As he casually draped the person over his shoulder, he suddenly heard Xie Xie'an's question.
Qian Yuan Demon Lord was also a little apprehensive.
"Something still doesn't feel right. That feeling of being corrupted by the will to kill is very similar to the demonic contamination effect of the Demonic Path's Divine Transformation Inheritance. The Ancient Demon of Slaughter can actually affect the entire Savage Ancient Plains. Could it be that it's about to break through the seal?"
"Won't."
Xie Xie'an shook his head in denial.
"The sealed area is very stable, which is why this situation has occurred."
"Actually, it's because of the unique nature of the ancient wilderness that this killing field, which affects the mind and will, is a kind of environmental anomaly."
"The most urgent task is to leave the ancient territory as soon as possible and complete the mission assigned by the sect."
…………
…………
Heavenly Demon Bone Forest.
This place once brought Wang Yu a major psychological transformation, but it also shattered his almost rekindled sense of morality, stifling his possibility of returning to the right path.
His first close friend was also buried here.
Whenever I think about it, I feel nothing but regret and emotion. This time, as I re-enter the Heavenly Demon Bone Forest, I will be coming into contact with the most powerful forces in the Ice Prison Realm.
As a Nascent Soul Demon Lord, the pressure and challenges were considerable, but he had made ample preparations.
The aurora borealis streaked across the sky, paused briefly at an ancient ruin, and continued deeper into the landscape, where miasma and poisonous fog gradually appeared in the air.
The stench of corpses and the fishy smell are the persistent characteristics of this dense forest. Inhaling too much of it can lead to poisoning, as it is full of deadly toxins.
Confident with his supernatural powers, Wang Yu drove almost non-stop, directly entering the core area of the Heavenly Demon Bone Forest and looking down from the sky.
This is a strange, purplish-green lake.
—Poison Dragon Lake!
The lake where the demon lord dwells is rumored to be highly poisonous. If a Core Formation cultivator were to come into contact with it rashly, at best their physical body would rot and their bones would decay, and at worst their golden core would be destroyed, making it impossible for them to make any progress in their lifetime.
There are also rumors that the lake water is the saliva that the demon lord drooled while he was sleeping, which was maliciously speculated by outsiders to be "drool baby".
Just as Wang Yu's thoughts were turning over.
A sharp, explosive sound suddenly rang in my ears.
"Who dares to trespass into the lair of the true dragon?!"
Wang Yu's expression turned solemn, and a great sense of disgust welled up in his heart.
A giant humanoid cockroach appeared in mid-air, its buzzing wings sounding like fingernails scraping against a blackboard, coupled with its ugly appearance.
It's absolutely disgusting.
Physical discomfort made Wang Yu ruthless in his attack. He clenched his right hand tightly, and an invisible force field rapidly compressed around the insect beast.
With a soft crack.
The insect beast exploded into a ball of green insect paste. Even without direct contact, Wang Yu wiped his hands in disgust and directly used his divine sense to vibrate the air.
The sound was like thunder, echoing throughout the entire Poison Dragon Lake.
"Wang Yu of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect has come to pay his respects to the Poison Dragon Demon Lord."
The greatest wish of the Jiao-type monsters is to transform into dragons and obtain the legendary true spirit bloodline, so they are very reluctant to be called "Jiao".
This flattery, neither too much nor too little, was purely out of politeness.
Just because someone's subordinates are disgusting-looking doesn't mean one should disregard the basic etiquette of a nation of manners. It has to be said that Wang Yu's skin is getting thicker and thicker.
As the sound spread, more buzzing arose from all directions, and various flying insects, beasts, mosquitoes, and flies emerged from the dense forest.
Black particles were everywhere, covering the sky and the fields.
The waters of Poison Dragon Lake began to boil, and a column of water shot into the sky, revealing a handsome man with his chest exposed, wearing only a dark green silk crane cloak.
Its green hair adorned its waist, and two long, curved, spiraling horns grew backward from its forehead. Its eyes were emerald purple, displaying the vertical pupils characteristic of a demon beast.
The aura of the fifth rank was fully released.
Although this aura was powerful, Wang Yu's mental cultivation was not to be underestimated. He easily neutralized this show of force and simultaneously sensed that the Demon Lord's aura was similar to that described in the intelligence reports.
It is roughly equivalent to the strength of a human cultivator at the third level of the Nascent Soul stage.
It's still within his limit of stress tolerance, so we can negotiate!
"Junior Wang Yu, Daoist name Jifa, pays respects to Senior Demon Lord."
The venomous dragon narrowed its eyes, a slight smile curving its lips.
The voice, filled with an alluring atmosphere, was like a woman's seductive melody, carrying a bewitching and enchanting quality.
"Interesting. Tell me why you're here."
Wang Yu's expression shifted, and his pure state of mind quickly calmed the turmoil in his heart, but he was still horrified. This bewitching magic was far more powerful than Xue Yu's rudimentary skills.
This demon lord is known for his poison!
After becoming even more vigilant, Wang Yu didn't delay any longer.
A straight road.
"This junior possesses something that I wish to exchange for a drop of Nine-Turn Gu God's Tear from the Demon Lord!"
This item was a rare treasure that Wang Yu obtained from Donghai Prefecture, under the jurisdiction of Huangquan Temple, after the two sects, Huangquan Temple and Niling Blood Sect reconciled.
From the extreme abyss of the Chaotic Ancient Sea.
This took half a year. As mentioned before, there are two fifth-order dragon veins in the Ice Prison Realm, representing the ancient immortal dynasty and the Ice Phoenix Saint Lord, two peak eras respectively.
Dragon veins are precisely the rare treasures of heaven and earth that were nurtured during these two periods.
The item Wang Yu obtained is called the "Stone Dragon Pearl"!
It is similar to the dragon vein treasure he obtained from the ancient Tianhun Sect ruins, but it is not a rare treasure nurtured by the dragon vein, but rather an essence separated by human intervention.
In his hands, this treasure could only be integrated into his natal artifact, the Demon Dragon Armor, where it would be transformed into the artifact's essence, expanding its potential and effects.
However, if it falls into the hands of a demon lord like the Poisonous Flood Dragon who wants to transform into a dragon, it might not become a crucial item, but it would also be a hope for pursuing the true spirit bloodline.
It's better than having no chance at all.
This instinct, rooted in his blood, would likely lead the Poisonous Flood Dragon Demon Lord to agree even if the exchange were for the Nine-Turn Gu God's Tears; both are equally precious.
They are just used in different areas. Which one is more precious and valuable depends on individual needs and ideas. It is impossible to compare them directly.
Wang Yu paid a high price to obtain this stone dragon pearl and owed the Yellow Springs Temple Master a favor, which he would naturally have to repay in the future.
From a normal perspective, this is a fair and win-win transaction.
But if one side has overwhelming power.
Getting something for free is also an option.
This is something I picked up. There's nothing wrong with that idea. Wang Yu, who was already on guard, deliberately waited until he broke through to the eighth level of the Nascent Soul stage before trying it, and that's one of the reasons.
Judging from the "quality" that the Poisonous Flood Dragon Demon Lord has shown in the past.
There's a high probability he'll directly try to steal it, so Wang Yu specifically mentioned his title to intimidate him. Although the Poisonous Flood Dragon has lived in the Heavenly Demon Bone Forest for many years, he's not blind.
It is only right to pay attention to major events outside the country.
Therefore.
Wang Yu was certain that revealing his background would serve its intended purpose.
What can be done?
Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. The venomous dragon's shamelessness and despicable nature were far more shameless than he had anticipated.
A gentle smile appeared on the incomparably handsome face of the Poison Dragon, and he stared intently at the Stone Dragon Pearl as he spoke.
"These are very fair terms. I'll count to three, and we'll throw the stuff over together, shall we?"
"Can."
"one two three!"
Wang Yu raised his hand but didn't move. The other party threw out a bottle. Just as he was about to examine it closely with his divine sense, if it really was the Nine-Turn Gu God's Tear, it wouldn't matter if he threw it over a little later.
He was genuinely interested in the deal and had no intention of using any underhanded tactics.
but……
The moment his divine sense touched the jade bottle, a poisonous aura of divine sense attached to the bottle spread instantly, and this unknown poison took effect extremely quickly.
And it wasn't fatal; it merely plunged Wang Yu's consciousness into darkness for a moment. In that instant, he was like a blind man, the world was completely silent, and even the warnings of his spiritual sense disappeared.
The Demonic Dragon Armor and the Extreme Yin Dragon Body instantly appeared on Wang Yu's body. Simultaneously, he formed the Immortal Spirit Seal, and the Immortal Spirit Bones connected within his body immediately emitted a thin layer of light membrane.
This is one of the extraordinary realms of a fifth-order body refiner.
Its name is—[Immortal Spirit Body]!
Coincidentally, the physical supernatural power that Wang Yu cultivates is also called this. It is not only a shortcut to the right path, but also a manifestation of this power in advance.
This light film doesn't have any special effects.
Its sole purpose is to make a cultivator's physical body indestructible; the duration of this effect depends entirely on the total amount of immortal spiritual energy contained within the immortal spiritual bone.
Rather than qi, blood, and physical strength.
Wang Yu reacted quickly, but just as he used all his defensive measures, the Poisonous Flood Dragon Demon Lord's attack arrived.
Facing a junior who is in the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
He shamelessly chose to start with a sneak attack, completely lacking the demeanor and dignity of a strong person, taking his insidious methods to the extreme.
A foul, poisonous wind blew in, and the venomous dragon transformed its hands into dragon claws, its highly poisonous demonic energy condensing into claw-like sheaths between its claws, before viciously grabbing at Wang Yu's neck.
Poison Dragon Tears Wind Claw!
One of the bloodline inheritances of his race, and also the bloodline supernatural power he is most skilled at using.
"Kang—"
The sound was like metal clashing. The light membrane formed by the immortal aura was harder than expected, and the Demon Lord's claw only dented it.
The incoming power was completely blocked by the Demon Dragon Armor.
It's strange, really.
This natal artifact frequently broke after he formed his core, but it became exceptionally indestructible when facing opponents at the Nascent Soul stage.
Ever since his body cultivation reached the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage.
It naturally advanced to the fourth-tier top-grade level, and the boost it provided became increasingly fierce. It was also easier to use in combat than the Glazed Pagoda, which mainly provided auxiliary effects.
The attack failed, and Wang Yu is about to awaken from the effects of the poison.
The Poisonous Flood Dragon Demon Lord opened its mouth again and spat out.
A cloud of dark green poisonous mist enveloped Wang Yu's figure. This time, it was a mysterious toxin specifically targeting the physical body. Like metal rusting, strange rust marks spread across his extremely Yin Dragon body.
The dragon armor's protection seemed to be nonexistent.
Suddenly snapping back to his senses, Wang Yu activated the Aurora Escape Technique, quickly closing the distance between himself and the Demon Lord. Only then did he realize the series of events that had just occurred.
Anger welled up inside him. Did this guy really think he was an easy target?
They became aware of the effects of the corrosion on their bodies.
An idea suddenly struck him. The swarm of red rust insects he had picked up from Wan Gu flew out of the ice cup, gathered on his body surface, and secreted toxins. He used poison to fight poison, corroding away the toxins before absorbing them back along the same path.
It directly absorbed this mysterious toxin that targets the physical body.
The crack took only half a breath.
Immediately following was a scene where the sky and earth changed color, and the sun and moon lost their light.
At some point, the world was shrouded in shadow.
A colossal meteorite, stretching as far as the eye can see, is about to crash into Poison Dragon Lake; this is none other than Taiyin You Tong's Meteorite Pupil Technique!
Those who have nothing to lose are not afraid of those who wear shoes.
This is the venomous dragon's old home. Wang Yu is going all out to make it look like the biggest spectacle possible. Since he doesn't expect to kill the venomous dragon demon lord anyway, he might as well turn its lair into ruins.
The large swarm of insectoid beasts surrounding them were also Wang Yu's targets.
This is one of the contingency strategies that had been planned long ago.
He's equally fearless when it comes to tough tactics!
The Demon Lord's expression finally changed, and he transformed into a three-hundred-foot-long emerald green poisonous dragon, its tail condensing a large amount of demonic energy.
—Dragon's Tail Swing!
One of the physical and bloodline supernatural abilities that almost every dragon-type demon beast possesses is the meteorite that Wang Yu summoned using the power of the Taiyin Star.
However, the forces it relies on are too weak and not concentrated at all.
Unless dealing with a much weaker target, it is difficult to achieve a decisive victory.
The emerald green dragon tail, which had grown to a gigantic size twice, directly shattered the meteorite into countless fragments. With a thought, Wang Yu ignited ice flames on the broken stones.
Meteor showers... will completely destroy the core area of the Heavenly Demon Bone Forest!
