Chapter 518 The Ferocious Power of the Ice Phoenix and the Longevity Fruit
Besides this tactic.
Another combat technique that caught Wang Yu's attention was called the "Tai Chi Hunyuan Hand." This was a pure combat technique that used magical power to borrow force and strike back, containing the profound mystery of using minimal force to deflect great force.
When mastered to a high level, one can even use magic power alone to reflect all the supernatural powers unleashed by the enemy back. If combined with the Void Aperture Battle Technique, the effect it can produce is simply unimaginable.
Furthermore, this tactic is very suitable for physical combat. When facing a situation where the enemy is strong and we are weak, it can even achieve victory against the strong. It is the best technique for crossing borders and killing enemies!
These techniques for applying magic have no ranking system.
The stronger a cultivator is, the more powerful the effect they can produce, but there is also an upper limit.
Wang Yu stopped at the Secret Ancient Tower with great interest and began to arrange his equipment to study its advanced combat tactics.
at the same time.
The situation outside the Phoenix Palace can only be described as utterly devastating. The terrifying power displayed by the mid-stage fifth-tier Ice Phoenix Demon Corpse was extremely dominant.
In less than half an hour, the Northern Demon Clan's destructive forces suffered another devastating blow.
"—Hiss!"
A fierce and unpleasant eerie cry seemed to emanate from right beside one's ears, sending chills down one's spine. A pale blue phantom suddenly flashed past the Heavenly Roc King and the other demons.
Their extreme speed meant they couldn't even save their own people who were right in front of them. Wang Yu's old acquaintance, the demon Peng Qing, was almost powerless to resist.
It was then pecked into countless pieces of flesh by the Ice Phoenix Corpse.
The attack, imbued with a strange power, was so devastating that even the demonic infant hidden within the sea of qi was not spared, leaving no trace of its remains.
"—Peng Qing!"
The Heavenly Roc King's eyes were bloodshot, and his rage instantly reached its peak. He transformed into a Heavenly Roc true form with a diameter of over a thousand meters, which was far more imposing than the Ice Phoenix Corpse in terms of size alone.
However, the difference in spiritual realm cannot be compensated for by physical size.
Tianpeng King flapped his pair of towering golden wings fiercely.
A storm of golden blades suddenly swept across the entire world, and his natal magic weapon, the Heavenly Roc Slaying Spear, which he held in his mouth, shot out with a sudden burst, serving as a trump card hidden in the storm, aimed directly at the head of the Ice Phoenix.
In a state of rage, to be able to devise such a battle strategy...
His methods were by no means bad, but the difference in strength was too great. The true spirit bloodline that the Ice Phoenix possessed made its strength far exceed the level that a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator should have.
The terrifying blue shadow suddenly increased its speed once again.
The Ice Phoenix True Flame spread instantly, directly crushing the Golden Blade Storm with overwhelming force. With another wing slash, it sent the Heavenly Roc Slaying Spear flying with only its natal true flame and physical strength.
The rapidly moving phoenix shadow drew streaks of blue, and the Heavenly Roc King's enormous true form seemed to be torn apart by a thousand knives, with countless pieces of flesh and blood bursting out, and the wings on the left side of his body were severed at the root.
He fell from the sky on the spot, and his fate is unknown.
Tianpeng King was a Nascent Soul Grand Perfection cultivator renowned for his outstanding combat prowess. If even he was defeated so easily, then Leilin King and Huoya King were even less of a match for him.
"Run!"
Two of the three kings chose to abandon Tianpeng King and ran wildly towards the Phoenix Palace. Peng Zhan was so angry that he lost his mind and, with his blood boiling, he ran towards the place where Tianpeng King had fallen.
He could not abandon the king of his clan; this was his honor and his commitment as the first warrior of the Tianpeng clan, even if it meant facing death...
Surprisingly, the Ice Phoenix seemed to possess a slight level of consciousness, and it was able to make its own judgments.
Not wanting to let anyone else escape, he actually chased after the direction in which the Fire Crow King and the others fled in a sorry state, which inadvertently led Peng Zhan to find a way to escape.
The Ice Phoenix Corpse was not affected by the no-fly zone law.
In addition, its speed is incredibly fast.
In just two breaths, he caught up with the three fleeing demons. Upon seeing this, Thunder King's body crackled with lightning, making him much faster than his two companions, and he disappeared around the corner in the blink of an eye.
There's a saying that goes, "When a large group of people encounter a tiger, you don't need to run faster than the tiger; you just need to run faster than your companions to survive."
The saying "better to die for your friend than for yourself" perfectly encapsulates this truth.
Although the relationships among these demon cultivators are not quite at this level, the current situation has directly led to this outcome.
The Fire Crow King also gritted its teeth, and several key acupoints on its body suddenly burst open with bloody holes, from which crimson flames emerged, and it was the second to rush out.
The last Nascent Soul cultivator of the Fire Crow Clan was left with nothing but tears in his eyes.
"...My king, save me!"
But the Fire Crow King is in dire need of protection himself, so how can he possibly save him?
In a flash, the Ice Phoenix Corpse suddenly swooped down, its trajectory forming a "U" shape, gliding and rising, carrying the much larger Fire Raven Kraken in its mouth.
The phoenix's beak precisely pierced the fire crow's head, directly sucking up its brain marrow. As if instinctively hunting, it tossed the brain marrow into the sky and swallowed it whole.
The movements were fluid and graceful, but they also wasted a lot of time.
When it went to patrol again, not only had the two kings disappeared without a trace, but Peng Zhan had also dragged the unconscious body of Tianpeng King away to some unknown place.
The Ice Phoenix Corpse let out a violent cry.
They continued flying towards the Phoenix Palace, and in less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, they arrived at the core building of this palace area, almost without stopping.
It then saw a bolt of lightning and a burst of fire rush into the Phoenix Palace one after the other. This time it was truly enraged, and for some reason it seemed unable to enter the palace.
The fifth-tier innate phoenix fire directly drew a prison on the ground, and the surging ice phoenix true flames surrounded the entire Phoenix Palace, with the raging flames burning endlessly.
…………
…………
Inside the Phoenix Palace.
"Huff...huff..."
The Fire Crow King, covered in blood, leaned weakly against the palace wall, his face filled with bitterness, and murmured.
"More than forty Nascent Soul cultivators from the demon race entered the Heavenly Palace Secret Realm with overwhelming force, but now only the two of us remain. Even the Heavenly Roc King has fallen... What should we do?"
King Lei Lin's face was gloomy. In this trip to the secret realm, the demon race was the biggest loser, with more than half of their top forces lost in the secret realm.
The situation has arguably reached its worst point.
"Thinking about these things now is useless. The real problem is how to leave the secret realm. With just you and me... I'm afraid we'll be killed on the spot by that fierce corpse as soon as we leave this hall."
"The only way out now is to fight to the death, find Wang Yu, refine the precious pill, and restore the Azure Dragon Demon Lord to his full strength. Only then will there be a way to survive."
That's the principle, but whether it can be put into practice is another matter.
"This palace is quite ingenious; that beast seems unable to enter. Let's explore deeper inside."
After rousing themselves and getting some rest, the two continued their exploration.
at the same time.
Having cultivated the Glazed Heart Realm, Wang's comprehension improved far beyond expectations, and since those combat techniques were purely skill-based, he was able to comprehend them very quickly.
In less than half an hour, he had learned everything he wanted to learn. If classified by supernatural power levels, he had directly skipped the entry stage and reached minor success.
It can already be used in combat, but the timing must be extremely precise; otherwise, a single misstep could result in serious injury to the enemy and a thousand losses to oneself.
After Wang Yu left the Secret Ancient Tower, he and the Fire Crow King just missed each other. No sooner had Wang Yu left than the two demons also arrived at this place.
They were equally curious about the peculiar jade tablet in the ancient building.
They then entered and began their exploration.
Strangely, Yan Ling and the other person were supposed to meet Wang Yu again, but they disappeared on the road between him and the two demons.
Wang Yu summoned Xueyu again and continued to use the fox-tail lamp to track the Hehuan duo. The lamplight illuminated many traces of battle along the way.
Strangely, the surrounding buildings were perfectly intact, showing no signs of a battle, which was puzzling.
Furthermore, as you go deeper, the terrain of the entire palace gradually descends.
One hour later.
Wang Yu entered a square, suspended building, which resembled a giant wooden box. Numerous intricate and beautiful phoenix patterns adorned it, making it both mysterious and noble.
The entrance is filled with earth and rocks formed from a large amount of demonic energy, which should be remnants of supernatural powers.
Xueyu sniffed it curiously and exclaimed in surprise.
"This is also a method used by the demon race. Their bloodline is also very noble, and they should have the bloodline of a low-grade ferocious beast."
"A ferocious beast??"
Wang Yu immediately understood; it was most likely the natal spirit beast of that Ancient Beast True Monarch. The path of a Beast Tamer and spirit beasts are closely linked, complementing each other, but also constrained by one another.
This ferocious beast is very precious and should have the potential to become a Nascent Soul cultivator. It is probably being held back by the Ancient Beast True Monarch, making it difficult for it to advance to the fifth rank.
While the master and servant were still studying...
Xueyu suddenly looked up, her pink eyes instantly brightening.
"What a rich aroma of life essence! This is a great tonic, Master. It seems to be right here in this wooden box."
"Then let's go in!"
Having already come this far, Wang Yu sensed the changes in the outside world as soon as he entered the Phoenix Palace, knowing that the situation outside was probably not good, and he never intended to turn back.
In-depth study is essential.
The moment the master and servant stepped into the wooden box building, the world instantly changed, and the bright sunlight felt very comfortable on their faces.
The surrounding area is filled with birdsong, fragrant flowers, and lush trees, a scene of spring sunshine.
It was so relaxing that it instantly calmed both body and mind. Wang Yu, relying on his crystal-clear mind, almost immediately snapped out of this strange situation and slapped Xue Yu on the head.
This left her completely bewildered.
"Huh, where are we?"
Wang Yu had no time to pay attention to her. First, the crescent moon mark lit up in his eyes, and then the golden light from his Qi-gazing golden pupils also bloomed three feet long.
But neither the Qi Observation nor the Illusion Breaking Techniques could detect any flaws in the illusion.
Wang Yu's expression grew increasingly solemn as he asked.
"Xueyu, can you still smell that fragrance of life essence?"
"It's still possible, it seems to be just ahead."
"Close your eyes, maximize the effect of the fox tail lamp, and you lead the way."
"good."
Even though Wang Yu felt that he was already quite good, the demon race still had the advantage over him in this aspect, and Xue Yu's sense of smell was much more sensitive than his.
And so, the next incense stick's time passed.
Wang Yu followed Xue Yu all the way until they arrived at the base of a giant, strange tree with a canopy as large as a thundercloud.
Yu Hongchen, Ji Changjing, Gu Shou Zhenjun, Bi'an, Yan Ling, and Yu Tangtang stood neatly beneath the giant tree, their expressions calm, but their eyes burning with passion.
He stared intently at a bright red fruit on the giant tree.
"—The Longevity Fruit!"
Xueyu's voice became very shrill as she excitedly shook Wang Yu's arm.
"Master, that's the legendary Longevity Fruit! It can not only extend the lifespan of a Nascent Soul cultivator by five hundred years, but also transform a person and reshape their physical body."
"Even if only one Nascent Soul remains, it can still be saved!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Yu remained completely calm.
It only extends lifespan by five hundred years. The fifth-grade supreme treasure pill he obtained from the Emperor's secret treasury in Dongjijing has the top-level miraculous effect of extending lifespan by a thousand years.
Before he broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, he was unable to perfectly refine it. Although the Longevity Fruit was precious, it was only of some value to him.
It is far from comparable to the opportunity to break through to the Divine Transformation stage.
This thing has a fatal attraction only for Nascent Soul cultivators who are nearing the end of their lifespan, such as those from the Refining Heaven Demon Sect.
Xueyu's exclamation caused everyone under the giant tree to turn around, their gazes filled with hostility and rejection, including Yan Ling and Yu Tangtang.
"What's going on...?"
Xueyu shrank back, hiding behind Wang Yu's neck, looking extremely timid as she peeked out.
"They seem to be manipulated; there's definitely something wrong here."
"I can tell."
Wang Yu was speechless. He reached out and summoned his natal magic treasure, the Glazed Ice Heart Tower, which landed above his head. A pale blue spiritual energy curtain descended from the bottom of the tower, protecting him inside.
Simultaneously, he grasped the Sun-Piercing Demon Bow in his hand, and instantly condensed the Lunar Star Arrow, aiming at the Ancient Beast True Monarch, this easy target, and fired it directly.
The opponent also drew out a long whip, which was his natal magic weapon, the Ancient Beast Whip!
With a sharp crack, it struck empty air, but its natal beast, Bi'an, reacted instantly, stomping its forelegs on the ground, and the brownish-yellow to golden rock wall suddenly rose up.
It demonstrates exceptional defensive capabilities.
But... it didn't work!
As a fifth-tier superior magic weapon, the Sun-Piercing Demon Bow is a killing weapon specializing in inflicting damage. Even the Bixie Divine Power, which is known as the Earth Emperor and has almost invincible defensive power among its peers, cannot defend against it.
This is the miraculous effect brought about by overwhelming superiority in rank.
The rock wall defense shattered with a deafening roar, and after smashing through several beams of spiritual light, the remaining power was no longer enough to pose a threat to the Ancient Beast True Monarch.
At the same time.
Yu Hongchen and Ji Changjing, the two cultivation partners, simultaneously unleashed their pink skull-shaped natal magic weapons, which, accompanied by a large amount of pink smoke, attacked him.
With a flick of his wrist, Wang Yu condensed the powerful Frozen Demon Essence into a dense frost-covered black mist, resembling rolling dark clouds. It secretly formed nine voids, which he then unleashed using the Tai Chi Hunyuan Hand technique.
In the instant the two clashed, Yan Ling and Yu Tangtang also rushed over. However, Wang Yu was quite familiar with their methods, and with a flick of his sleeve, he unleashed a beam of Ice Soul Divine Light.
In an instant, the Ice Prison Demon Seal descended from the sky.
Its power to suppress the universe immediately subdued the two women. Wang Yu then ignored them and unleashed nine vortexes from the frost and black mist he had released.
The combined attack technique of the Hehuan Demon Sect was used in the same way it was used to return to its source. Yu Hongchen and Ji Changjing were mentally impaired, and their reaction abilities were noticeably slower.
Seemingly not expecting that Wang Yu would only expend a little demonic energy to render their combined attack ineffective, they screamed in agony and were frozen into two ice sculptures.
Wang Yu transformed into the aurora and suddenly rushed out, his palms bearing the spiritual light seal of the Ice Seal Curse. He immediately grabbed the two round heads and entered the deep seal.
The glazed pagoda above his head spun around and instantly absorbed him into the pagoda for further suppression!
