Yandang Swamp.

A strong stench emanated from the endless black water and mud.

Occasionally, you can see snakes and insects crawling quickly among the muddy water and low aquatic plants.

In some areas, you can see spiritual energy floating like air currents.

However, the environment in this area is too harsh. Even a Jindan cultivator cannot survive for a long time. Therefore, it has become a forbidden area for most cultivators.

The swamp is not entirely filled with bad water. There are some rolling hills and growing jungles in the depths.

…

A lonely dead tree stood in the mud.

The bark of this tree is covered with black moss, and there are densely packed tiny insects crawling up and down on the surface.

Under the tree, there was a pool of black water, with bubbles popping up from time to time.

Below the black water, rotten mud and rotten wood merged together. After being soaked in black water for years, they were filled with small black crawling insects.

Further down, a black light expanded the mud and turned it into a secret room for training.

Inside the secret room.

The figure looked like a young man in his twenties, sitting cross-legged in meditation, his eyes opening and closing revealing a sense of vicissitudes that was not what one's age should be.

"What's going on?"

Lin Moya frowned.

Somehow, he suddenly felt uneasy.

A mysterious feeling filled my heart.

"What happened in the clan or the sect?"

The emotions of a Nascent Soul cultivator would not fluctuate for no reason. Lin Moya knew very well that something must have happened.

"Could it be that the old friends can't hold it in anymore?"

In order to advance to the Nascent Soul stage, not only did he spend a huge price, he also made a lot of arrangements beforehand.

The ancestors of the Jindan forces outside Dongting Fairy City were not happy to see him advance to the Nascent Soul stage.

After some thought, Lin Moya was certain that there was probably something wrong with the sect or the family.

He has been releasing the news for decades but there has been no response. Those old friends who have been hiding in the dark and wanting to trip him up have probably been unable to hold back and are trying to make him show up.

Not long after, Lin Moya closed his eyes again.

family?

Sect?

All material things are trivial.

As the chief cultivator of the Lin family and the Dongyuan Sect, it was very simple to rebuild a new sect and family.

In fact, his injuries have mostly recovered, and the rest just needs to be stabilized for another two or three years.

The reason why he could recover so quickly was that before he advanced, he went to Canglan Mountain and exchanged for a fourth-tier healing elixir, which also consumed most of Dongyuan Sect’s savings.

In the Yandang swamp.

Shen Lian's figure turned into a stream of light and shot towards him. He flipped through Lin Qingyuan's memories and found the place where the Lin family's ancestor was in seclusion.

He felt that it was still worth a try for a Nascent Soul that had just advanced to the next stage.

Judging from his own combat power, the probability of killing this newly promoted Nascent Soul is 70%.

As for the remaining 30%, they are of course talismans and formations.

Ninety-eight percent? No, no, seven plus three = ten.

When Shen Lian entered the Yandang Swamp, the secondary soul split into two from the original soul and began to make relevant arrangements.

In addition to fighting with the Lin family's ancestor, he also had to be on guard against other people coming to take advantage of the situation.

A fight with a Nascent Soul cultivator would definitely cause a lot of noise, and there was no way of knowing whether there would be anyone nearby.

In addition, preparations need to be made in advance on how to conceal the traces of aura on the battlefield.

After he awakened the Five Elements spiritual body and advanced to the late stage of Golden Core, the secondary soul, as a spiritual puppet of the same origin, reached a level of spiritual power close to 90% of that of the original body.

In other words, even Shen Lian's own secondary soul had a soul strength of almost 45,000 feet, surpassing many cultivators at the Golden Core Great Perfection level.

To cut the grass, you must remove the roots. Shen Lian will not make mistakes and leave hidden dangers for himself.

It doesn't matter if you don't do it, but if you do it, do it thoroughly.

Crossing the swamp and going deep into the nearly 20,000 miles of muddy water, Shen Lian's figure disappeared in mid-air.

Most of the environments within the swamp are similar, with few iconic places.

Soon, a figure emerged from the mud. It was Lin Qingyuan who he had killed before.

On the way here, Shen Lian made an expedited small modification for Lin Qingyuan.

“Crack!”

In mid-air, Lin Qingyuan moved his body, and a crackling sound came from his body. He gently touched his arms, and a khaki bead appeared.

This is the positioning bead left by the ancestor of the Lin family.

After being injected with magic power, the beads began to spin and emit an ochre light in all directions.

These lights quickly gathered together and shot up into the distance.

“Ancestor…”

Lin Qingyuan followed closely behind the ochre-colored light.

…

When Lin Qingyuan arrived above the dead tree, he had not yet waited for the moment to drill down.

The swamp near the dead tree suddenly surged up like a volcanic eruption, and a black airflow swirled out and swept Lin Qingyuan in.

"Sizzle."

The ear-piercing sound of blood and bones breaking rang out from the black airflow.

In an instant, Lin Qingyuan turned into a pool of blood, dyeing the dark swamp red.

The dirty trick didn't work.

Shen Lian was not surprised.

Then, a young figure in a black robe stepped out from the tumbling black water. He exuded a domineering aura, and his spiritual thoughts swept across the four directions like a thread.

"Come out now."

Lin Moya raised his big hand, and the black water in the swamp here seemed to be boiling, making gurgling sounds, gathering in his big hand and falling towards the swamp in the distance.

According to his perception, the person who wanted to launch a sneak attack did not have the Nascent Soul Qi, which meant that the person was just a Little Golden Elixir.

Those old friends from the nearby sects only have this much ability.

Unfortunately, he is already in the Nascent Soul stage! These old guys who were once on equal footing with him will all kneel down at his feet, shouting that the ancestor will enjoy eternal blessings and a long life.

But this time the old guy still has some ability, and he actually controls his own descendants.

Even though they were his own descendants, Lin Moya did not take it lightly, in case these old guys were playing dirty tricks on him.

As for descendants, he already has a lifespan of 3,000 years, so he just wants the clan to have more children.

In the swamp, watching the power of the Nascent Soul surging in, Shen Lian's body flashed with black light, and the five elements of magic power quickly condensed into a shield-like energy, circling around him, "Zizizizi!"

Immediately, Shen Lian rubbed his hands together, and a ball of red fire with golden and white hues appeared. It passed through the Five Elements Shield and burned a hole in the mud and water that was squeezing in front of it.

His figure stepped out.

At this moment, he faced the Nascent Soul directly!

Of course, the gourd on the head is just a decoration.

The same goes for the puppet talismans attached to both shoulders.

The two sides stood in mid-air and tested each other with their spiritual powers.

Shen Lian was quite satisfied with the result of his test.

Sure enough, the purity of the soul that was improved after the awakening of the spirit body was actually comparable to that of the Nascent Soul and even a little bit higher. Although the strength of the divine consciousness was slightly weaker than the Lin family's Nascent Soul in front of him, the quality was not bad.

The strength of the Lin family's Nascent Soul's spiritual power is about 80,000 feet.

On the other hand, Lin Moya looked a little unhappy.

Late Jindan stage!

Late Jindan stage!

Late Jindan stage!

The important small golden elixir needs to be sensed three times.

That’s right, it’s the late Jindan stage.

A person in the late stage of Little Golden Core was able to walk out easily under the attack.

"Who are you?"

“Buzz!”

Shen Lian did not respond. His robe swelled up. He pushed his hands forward, and the Five Elements Ship, which had already been infused with magic power, flew into the air.

Rays of forbidden light flashed out from the Five Elements Ship, interweaving to outline layers of magical restrictions, and flashing ferocious thunder.

After being re-refined, the Five Elements Ship has long been upgraded to the top level of the third-grade superior quality. There are 365 Forbidden Spirit Towers on its hull.

Of course, Shen Lian is currently unable to activate all of these Forbidden Soul Towers, but the twenty-seven Forbidden Soul Towers that he focused on building can play their maximum role.

Twenty-seven forbidden spiritual prohibitions manifested twenty-seven mountains covering hundreds of acres of void, suppressing the area near Lin Moya.

"External possessions, trivial skills!"

Seeing that Shen Lian took the first step and wanted to use the third-level spiritual restriction to imprison him, Lin Moya laughed angrily.

The big hand clenched gently and turned into a sharp claw, and slapped towards the sky fiercely.

Suddenly, streams of black filthy water gushed out from the swamp below, emitting an indescribable stench.

“Sizzle!”

In just a breath, the twenty-seven third-level seals sealed in mid-air were first torn into five large holes by the sharp claws, and then corroded by the foul-smelling black water.

The Five Elements Ship made a beeping sound and rolled back to Shen Lian's side.

"Old bitch!"

Shen Lian grabbed the Five Elements Ship and sensed the corroded areas on it.

As expected of an old Yuanying monster, he becomes more sinister as he gets older.

This area was actually filled with filthy water in advance.

In an instant, Shen Lian placed one hand on the Five Elements Ship, and the Five Elements Ship rose into the air and turned into the shape of a disc.

The disc made a crackling sound, and a red plate with thunder patterns flew out.

The Bing Fire Divine Thunder explodes with great rage, destroying all the filth in the world.

The Binghuo Divine Thunder Disk spun in the air, and the lightning patterns suddenly enlarged to hundreds of feet in size. Crackling lightning shot out and turned into pieces of red lightning that covered an area of ​​a thousand acres.

Zizizizi! As the lightning struck, the black water exploded, and clouds of black smoke rolled up, releasing an extremely strong stench.

However, the rolling stench lifted up large areas of rotten mud, and more filthy black water rushed up into the sky, swallowing up the pieces of lightning.

"Arrogant youngster, it is true that the Way of Thunder is the most yang and the most powerful, but you are only a golden elixir."

Lin Moya said this, but he wasted no time in taking action.

First, a black filthy water dragon was uncovered from deep in the mud, and then a black talisman was thrown out.

The filthy water dragon roared and swallowed the red lightning in big gulps. Even though lightning and fire kept exploding from its body, it still rushed towards Shen Lian with great momentum.

At the same time, the black talisman fell directly into Shen Lian's sea of ​​consciousness like a seal from the sky.

“Sizzle!”

A sharp explosion sounded, and a divine consciousness image composed of two claws in Shen Lian's sea of ​​consciousness pierced two holes in the black talisman, making a sharp explosion.

Then, without hesitation, he performed the same Dharma image again and tore the black talisman apart.

After a brief exchange of spiritual thoughts, both of their bodies trembled slightly.

As the attacking party, Lin Moya did not gain any benefit. His pupils suddenly shrank. He didn't dare to believe it before, but now he had to believe it.

Shen Lian's spiritual quality is not inferior to his.

He is the Nascent Soul.

The little golden elixir in front of him was clearly in the late golden elixir stage, and the quality of its soul was actually not inferior to his.

This is weird.

In a flash, Lin Moya's thoughts raced, and then his murderous intent grew.

This young man in front of me must be killed.

As seals were formed between his hands, a stream of black mysterious water came out of his mouth and was injected into the body of the filthy water dragon.

Suddenly, the entire water dragon grew countless tentacles like an octopus, covering an area of ​​ten thousand acres. The long tentacles stretched out gradually shrunk the area where Shen Lian was moving, trying to strangle him to death.

"The Yuanying old monster is really difficult to deal with."

Seeing himself surrounded by black water and attacked by countless tentacles, Shen Lian did not have time to think too much. With a flash of spiritual light, the Five Elements Ship turned into a magic sword.

Then, colorful sword lights shot up into the sky, chopping the large number of attacking tentacles into pieces.

These tentacles that were chopped into pieces by the sword energy immediately turned into a ball of black water, and were then sucked into the body of the filthy water dragon.

Immediately, colorful spiritual light lit up on the magic sword, and five thunder magic disks flew out, shooting out five kinds of lightning: white, red, black, yellow, and blue, which struck the large area of ​​black water into nothingness.

Seeing that Shen Lian had five thunder magic weapons around him and was able to block the black water with the power of thunder, Lin Moya suddenly opened his hands and a black ball of water emerged.

After finishing, he pressed his chest and spat out a mouthful of inky black spiritual light which was injected into the black water ball.

In this way, Lin Moya held the blessed water ball and integrated it into the filthy water dragon.

"roar!"

In an instant, the filthy water dragon let out a thunderous roar, and dense dragon scales appeared all over its body, covering the nearby sky.

The sword light and lightning light released by Shen Lian were swallowed by the water dragon and chewed in its mouth.

So cruel.

Shen Lian's eyelids twitched, and when he raised his hands, lightning flashed in his five internal organs, and five lightning bolts of various colors gathered on his hands.

At first, the lightning was only three feet in size, and the colorful light condensed into a rope shape.

After he rubbed it a few times, it suddenly grew to several dozen feet in size. He grabbed it in his hand and whipped it hard towards the water dragon.

The colorful lightning, which was dozens of feet in size, instantly smashed the filthy water dragon's head. The colorful lightning, which was mainly composed of the colorful lightning whip, generated countless lightning arcs that rushed into the water dragon's body.

"go!"

However.

In an instant, a sharp voice rang out.

From within the water dragon's body that was torn apart by lightning, a spinning black water ball suddenly hit Shen Lian.

"Protect your body."

Shen Lian let go of the thunder whip and retreated frantically.

Two puppet figures appeared on his shoulders, casting magic shields in front of him one by one.

Lin Moya was very calculating. He originally thought that the black ball was a blessed water dragon, but he didn't expect that it was a killer hidden in the water dragon.

The colorful lightning, without Shen Lian's control, even though it had the power to destroy the filthy evil demons, was still at the third level after all. After tearing the filthy water dragon into 70% to 80% of its pieces, it was gradually submerged by the black water.

After the collapse, the water dragon transformed into countless streams of black water, which rolled towards Shen Lianxi. The entire area was completely covered by the black water and turned into a boundary.

Sizzle.

A piercing sound was heard, and streaks of light shot out in the rolling black water, like blooming fireworks, constantly exploding with dazzling brilliance.

In the deepest part of the fireworks, Shen Lian stood on the Five Elements Ship, resisting the black water coming from all directions.

Even though the black water exploded around him and the foul smell danced wildly, he stood still as still as a mountain.

The ancestor of the Lin family practiced water magic, but the water magic was mixed with foul air. This power can corrode the opponent's magic power. In addition, the water magic is cold and tricky, so if you are not careful, you will be tricked.

In addition, the reason why Patriarch Lin came to Yandang Swamp to advance to the Nascent Soul stage is because the environment here is very favorable for him.

The swamp is filled with countless sludge and endless stench, which can be said to be his blessed land.

In addition, the old man also made a backup plan here, gathering a lot of filthy water from the mud.

This meant that even if the black water that was rushing in from all directions was burned out by the flames, it could still be drawn from deep within the earth and replenished, as if it were endless.

However, the fight just now also allowed Shen Lian to prove one thing, that his current combat power was enough to resist a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Although Lin Moya had the advantage of time and place, his strength was limited.

Currently, the two of them are in a stalemate. Although the magic power controlled by Lin Moya is enough to cover the sky and the sun, he can't advance within a distance of ten feet in front of him.

"Let's try it."

Shen Lian murmured something.

This time he faced off against Yuanying not because he was being arrogant, but also to test an idea in his mind.

In addition, with the backup of the secondary soul outside, he can retreat calmly even if there is an abnormal change.

Shen Lian raised his arm, and the magic power in his body began to flow and gathered on his palm.

This is not over yet. The physical essence and the yin and yang and five elements that were dormant in the flesh and blood have also been mobilized.

The three energies gathered together, forming a five-colored stream of light in front of them, causing the surrounding air currents to roll.

“Boom!”

In an instant, Shen Lian's body trembled violently, and pieces of five-colored flames scattered from his body like flowers from heaven.

The flames swept out, sweeping away all the black water and filth wherever they passed.

The overwhelming black vapor suddenly became turbulent, sizzling and exploding as it burned in the flames.

The Pure Yang Fire, a spell that combined three energies into one, tore apart Lin Moya's Black Water spell in an instant.

Shen Lian immediately grabbed the long sword transformed from the Five Elements Ship and slashed forward.

The sword energy tore through the sky, spanning dozens of miles, cutting the black water aura in the sky into two halves. The black water aura on both sides broke into pieces like tofu, turning into large ripples that rushed in all directions.

"puff!"

The black water spell he controlled was torn apart, catching Lin Moya off guard.

He didn't react at all as to why his attack method, which was as powerful as a whale, was punctured in an instant.

But before he could react, countless colorful sword qi fell from the sky. His face was gloomy and he opened his mouth and spit out a bracelet, which continuously knocked away the sword qi.

Shen Lian quickly performed magic spells with both hands, and the three energies in his body merged into one again.

Amidst the colorful flashes, a hazy black and white light suddenly appeared.

“Buzz!”

In an instant, it condensed into a sword shadow with ripples on it, which slid into the void filled with black air and black water and disappeared.

"Please respectfully invite Yuanying Ancestor to set off."

"My son, you have a big mouth..."

In an instant, Lin Moya's body trembled violently, and a streak of blood bloomed on his high forehead.
