Chapter 93: Kangding Peak Forbidden Land·Nine Dragons Cave, this high-end game [5000 words chapter]
A ninth-level Dharma corpse in the Foundation Establishment Stage, this is the enemy with the highest level of cultivation that Lu Chen has encountered after Yu Tianqi and the Black Rock King.
In fact, if he encountered such an enemy outside the copy, he would definitely turn around and leave without thinking.
But sorry, he is in a copy where he can be resurrected infinitely.
Therefore, even though he knew that he was most likely no match for Pang Xiao, he still approached him without changing his expression.
Being able to resurrect infinitely is just so willful.
Looking at Lu Chen who was walking towards him, Pang Xiao sighed helplessly.
Because the body carrying the golden tripod was already like a candle in the wind and could not hold on for long.
Finally, when he was about to give up, someone unexpectedly broke in here.
There is a way to survive, why choose to go down the road of death?
Isn't it good to be alive...
Thinking of this, Pang Xiao finally decided to persuade Lu Chen not to get any closer.
"Fellow Daoist... please stop here..."
Hearing this, Lu Chen finally chose to stop at the location of the many mithril tripods.
He looked up at Pang Xiao, who was carrying the golden tripod with difficulty on a high platform not far away, and asked, "Daoyou, do you know where this is? And why are there so many magic tripods placed here?"
Pang Xiao looked at Lu Chen in astonishment, who was wearing the uniform of a Danyang Peak disciple. Only then did he realize that Lu Chen was not a disciple of Kangding Peak.
Maybe he knew that he didn't have much time left.
Therefore, in response to Lu Chen's question, Pang Xiao directly answered: "My friend, this place is the forbidden area of our Kangding Peak... the Nine Dragons Cave."
"The spiritual cauldrons around Daoyou are the formation set up by our sect's founder, Immortal Qingyun, and it is called Locking Dragon."
"This formation can suppress the golden dragon of luck, seize the power of the golden dragon, and protect the sect for eternity."
"However, the golden dragon is unruly. It turns over every hundred years and rolls on the ground every thousand years. Therefore, I, the monks of Kangding Peak, need to replace the locked tripod from time to time to prevent the golden dragon from escaping."
"And what I am carrying right now is one of the nine array points in the Dragon Locking Array, called the Dragon Locking Golden Tripod."
"Although I don't know the situation of other formations, I can feel that the activities of this evil dragon are becoming more and more frequent."
“Perhaps once this golden tripod falls, the golden dragon of luck under my peak… will be able to break out of the tripod soon.”
After hearing what Pang Xiao said, Lu Chen finally understood where the word "Ding" in Kangding Peak came from.
And what is the purpose of the huge chain that runs through the entire cave.
Just like Danyang Peak can suppress the raging earth fire and use it to assist the alchemists in the peak in refining pills.
The special thing about Kangding Peak is that it can lock the golden dragon of luck.
Then continue to absorb the golden dragon's luck to make the sect more prosperous.
Is this the legendary method used by immortals?
In a trance, Lu Chen seemed to see a man standing on the blue clouds and carrying divine light on his back.
An incomparably huge square tripod descended from the ninth heaven, suppressing the golden dragon of destiny hidden deep underground, making it unable to move.
Then he set up nine huge chains that reached the sky, completely trapping the golden dragon of luck and making it unable to escape.
Finally, he passed on the Dharma to the people at Kangding Peak, telling them how to maintain the Dragon Locking Formation and how to make good use of the golden dragon's luck.
Cruel, this immortal is so cruel.
Just to improve the fortune of the sect, he locked up a golden dragon of fortune for tens of thousands of years.
Absorbing its luck day and night.
To the Golden Dragon of Luck, what was the difference between this and being held captive and sucked dry by others? As soon as Lu Chen put himself in the perspective of the Golden Dragon of Luck, his heart was inexplicably filled with resentment.
And this resentment grew stronger and stronger, so that Lu Chen's expression gradually became ferocious.
But just when Lu Chen was about to get lost, the Mo Jiao Sword in his hand suddenly vibrated, making a crisp sound.
The sudden sound brought him back to his senses instantly.
Lu Chen looked at the Mo Jiao Sword in his hand, and a hint of doubt flashed across his clear eyes.
It was strange. I was obviously a human cultivator, so why did I have to empathize with a golden dragon of destiny? And why was the scene of the immortal locking the dragon so clear, as if it really happened in front of me.
This is clearly the first time I know about Kangding Peak’s situation?
Could it be that... something is affecting me? !
Thinking of this, Lu Chen immediately looked at the Dragon-Locking Golden Tripod on Pang Xiao's shoulder.
I saw a golden dragon carving on the golden tripod, which had stood up at some point, as if it was trying to break free from the tripod and fly out.
And still looking at him intently.
"Let me out, let me out..."
"Damn Qingyun Immortal, when I escape, I will definitely wipe out your entire Qingyun Sect, your entire clan!!!"
"Young man of my clan, stop standing there like an idiot. Help me kill this evil obstacle in Qingyun and help me escape..."
Not long after Lu Chen looked at the golden dragon, a voice filled with boundless resentment sounded in his ears.
At this point, how could Lu Chen not know that the scene of the Immortal Locking Golden Dragon that he had just seen was the Golden Dragon of Luck using its power to allow him to see it.
Lu Chen quickly figured out why it came to him.
It must be because of the Dragon Sword Intention in me.
Luck is an illusory thing, and so is sword intent.
Therefore, there is not much difference in essence between the golden dragon of destiny and the dragon of sword intent.
So even though he was actually a human, he was still wearing the uniform of an inner disciple of Qingyun Sect.
But in the eyes of the Golden Dragon of Luck, it was one of his own! But...do I really want to help it escape? Recalling the twisted and crazy tone of the Golden Dragon of Luck just now, and the boundless hatred for Qingyun Sect in his words.
Lu Chen always felt that if he chose to help the Golden Dragon of Fortune, it might not be a good thing for him.
But judging from the current situation, even if he didn't help, the golden dragon of luck seemed to be about to escape.
Does it matter whether I help or not?
Perhaps he heard what the Golden Dragon of Fortune said to Lu Chen, or perhaps Pang Xiao guessed that the Golden Dragon of Fortune might be up to something.
So he spoke with difficulty, "Daoyou, please don't be deceived by that evil dragon."
"This evil dragon was once the dragon vein of a dynasty in the mortal world. After being enlightened by a master, it was fortunately born with intelligence."
"However, the expert never expected that after this evil dragon first awakened its spiritual wisdom, it not only stopped protecting the dynasty, but even turned the tables and continued to devour other dragon veins of the dynasty to strengthen itself."
"If this continues, the fortune of the dynasty that the evil dragon belongs to will continue to decline, and the people in the dynasty will suffer, countless people will be displaced, and eventually it will lead to a tragedy in the world."
"After hearing about this, our sect's ancestor Qingyun chased this evil dragon for hundreds of years before finally suppressing it here."
"However, Master Qingyun thought that it was not easy for the dragon to be born and raised here, so he only punished it to repent for ten thousand years under the golden tripod to cleanse its sins of killing."
"But not only was Nie Long not grateful for this, he also took advantage of the invasion of the outside world and broke the ground veins of our sect's Ichigo Mountain. This allowed the outside world's demons to easily enter our sect and became one of the reasons for our sect's destruction."
“I don’t know why those foreign demons didn’t fulfill their promise to release this evil dragon.”
“But if you help it escape now, it will surely plunder the dragon veins of heaven and earth in the future, causing chaos in the world and causing great suffering to all living beings…”
"Bullshit!"
Just when Pang Xiao wanted to say something, the golden dragon carving on the golden tripod immediately started cursing.
And this time it no longer chose to transmit sound through telepathy, but instead spoke directly.
"I was young and ignorant, so I greedily ate those dragon veins, but now I know I was wrong."
"I swear that after I leave this time, I will never be greedy again. I will walk the glorious path, assist the mortal dynasty, and build a righteous dragon body."
"Believe me, I have really changed now."
"And didn't Pang Xiao say that your ancestor was only planning to suppress me for ten thousand years?"
"The time is long enough now. If you keep me locked up, it will not only go against the words of your ancestors, but also make outsiders think that your Qingyun Sect is treacherous and has no qualities of a righteous leader."
"Listen to me, it's time to let me out. You really should let me out. I already know I was wrong..."
As he was talking, the golden dragon actually started crying in front of Lu Chen and Pang Xiao.
That tearful look was really deceptive.
If Lu Chen had not been paying attention to its little actions, he might have really believed its lies.
You said you have reformed, then why do you continue to devour Pang Xiao's body?
Also, you just let me see the scene of you being suppressed back then.
If I let you out, you might be able to take away my body directly.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen silently raised his sword and walked towards Pang Xiao and the little golden dragon on the golden tripod.
His actions made it seem as if he was going to attack Pang Xiao and help the little golden dragon escape.
And Pang Xiao seemed to have mistakenly thought that Lu Chen was going to do this.
So much so that his already tired eyes immediately became even dimmer.
But just when Lu Chen approached within five steps of the two men, he swung his sword fiercely and chopped at the little golden dragon on the golden tripod.
"roar!"
Seeing this, the little golden dragon on the Dragon-Locking Golden Tripod roared angrily.
The dragon roar was so powerful that it not only knocked away the Mo Jiao sword that Lu Chen was slashing at it, but also caused Lu Chen's body to fly backwards.
After Lu Chen's body flipped several times in the air, it finally landed steadily on a mithril tripod.
The little golden dragon looked at Lu Chen, and changed his original timid attitude. He said in a gloomy tone: "Boy, I advised you with good intentions, but who knew you would not appreciate it."
"Okay, okay, I was thinking that after I escaped, I would use your body as a vessel to walk in the mortal world, but you actually dared to attack me."
"I've changed my mind. Once I'm out of this, I'm going to eat you!"
"If it weren't for the fact that Pang Xiao had somehow connected with my soul, making it impossible for me to have any bad thoughts towards him and I could only eat away at his remaining soul bit by bit, would I still need you to help me out? What a joke!"
Facing the little golden dragon that had completely torn off its face, Lu Chen turned around and asked, "Fellow Daoist Pang, if I kill the golden dragon's demonic body and then straighten the golden tripod, can I suppress this evil dragon again?"
Pang Xiao's eyes lit up, and then he nodded and said, "Yes, but you need to hurry up, because I can't hold on for long."
Hearing the conversation between the two, the little golden dragon laughed.
"No, with his Qi training stage, you actually think he can kill me? Pang Xiao, are you crazy?"
"Even if he is lucky enough to comprehend some of the meaning of the dragon, the Qi training stage is the Qi training stage. Even if I can only use a strand of the outer incarnation now, he can't suppress it at will!"
As he spoke, Lu Chen saw the four limbs on the Dragon Locking Golden Tripod, which he initially thought were flesh and blood limbs like those of the other Tripod people.
They all swelled up in an instant and soon turned into rotten corpse dragons that were more than ten meters long.
Plus the little golden dragon that was already standing on the golden tripod.
In this way, a strange scene instantly appeared in front of Lu Chen.
On the huge golden tripod that was as tall as two people, there suddenly grew four half-body corpse dragons and a special golden dragon.
Like the tentacles of an octopus, it keeps swaying.
[Golden Tripod: Corpse Dragon (4/4)]
[Cultivation: Foundation Building Stage 1]
[Features: The Golden Dragon of Luck devours the flesh and blood of the corpses and condenses into a special corpse dragon, which is extremely dangerous]
And after these corpse dragons appeared, the Golden Dragon of Fortune seemed to have a sense of crisis.
It began to speed up the process of devouring Pang Xiao's body.
As a result, Pang Xiao's cultivation began to decline at an alarming rate, and his aura began to become weaker and weaker.
The tilt of the Dragon Locking Golden Tripod slowly changed from 80 degrees to 79 degrees, and then to 78 degrees...
Lu Chen speculated that once the golden tripod fell completely, the golden dragon of luck that was suppressed under the Kangding Peak might be able to escape completely.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen decided not to waste any more time.
"roar!"
The sword intent in Lu Chen's body poured out, and a phantom of a dragon immediately appeared behind Lu Chen.
Then he took a step forward and turned into a sword dragon and flew towards a corpse dragon extending from the Dragon Locking Golden Tripod.
In response, a trace of disdain flashed in the corpse dragon's eyes.
Without dodging, he raised his claws and slapped Lu Chen's sword dragon.
Boom! When the corpse dragon's claws collided with Lu Chen's sword energy dragon.
Not only was Lu Chen's sword dragon shattered on the spot, he himself was directly slapped out by the corpse dragon's claw.
It finally stopped after knocking down several mithril tripods in a row.
“Puff!”
Lu Chen leaned against a mithril tripod, unable to suppress the surging blood and energy in his body, and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
In the blood, one could even see some organ fragments, which showed how much damage the corpse dragon's claw had caused to Lu Chen.
Seeing him in such a miserable state, the four corpse dragons controlled by the little golden dragon said in unison: "You are really daydreaming to use the power of a dragon to deal with a real dragon."
"That is to say, I only have this one soul fragment to drive now. Otherwise, an ant like you can be crushed to death with just a breath of my breath."
"Kill me? Try beating me!"
Hearing the words of Qiyun Jinlong, Lu Chen wiped the blood from his mouth and stood up silently.
Then he activated the Green Lotus Pupil and looked carefully at the little golden dragon and the four corpse dragons it controlled.
The seemingly vivid corpse dragon was actually just a facade.
The only thing with a true soul is the little golden dragon coiled on the golden tripod.
In addition, 60% of the little golden dragon's body has already extended from the golden tripod.
If Lu Chen guessed correctly, when the little golden dragon's entire body stretched out from the golden tripod, it should mean that the golden dragon of luck under the mountain had completely escaped.
Pressure, huge pressure.
This was the second time that Lu Chen felt terrifying pressure after the Black Rock King.
In fact, in terms of cultivation, the four corpse dragons are not strong.
Because they were transformed from the part of Pang Xiao's body that the little golden dragon devoured, and due to some special reasons, their cultivation level was only at the first level of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
This level of cultivation is definitely not high among the enemies that Lu Chen has defeated.
But the bad thing is that the enemy this time is very special; it is a golden dragon with destiny and intelligence.
Even though its real body is still suppressed at the moment, it can only be fought with the transformed corpse dragon.
But a real dragon is a real dragon.
After all, his own dragon-transforming sword intent was only at the stage of 'transforming into a dragon', rather than actually transforming into a dragon.
So everything was just as the little golden dragon said.
He used the Dragon Sword Intention to deal with this real dragon, which was a bit like showing off one's skills before an expert.
And if he didn't use the Dragon Transformation Sword Intent, Lu Chen would ultimately be just a cultivator in the Qi Condensation Stage.
Let him use his Qi training stage cultivation to deal with four corpse dragons in the foundation building stage.
Even though they can only stay in place and cannot move freely.
But it was still not something that a mere Qi training stage like him could handle.
This was also the first time Lu Chen had suffered a real setback since he mastered the Dragon Sword Intent.
However... Lu Chen does not only have the Dragon Sword Intention as his only weapon!
Lu Chen took a deep breath, then his eyes became stern.
The next second, a figure that looked exactly like him appeared beside Lu Chen.
Seeing this scene, the Golden Dragon of Fortune was stunned at first.
Then he discovered something and suddenly burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, I thought you were a cultivator of the righteous way, but how come you ended up joining the heterodox sect?"
"Retribution, your Qingyun Sect has indeed suffered retribution! The disciples of your sect have either turned into Dharma corpses or transformed into heretics. Even so, you still have the courage to call yourselves the leaders of the righteous path? This is so funny!"
Facing the little golden dragon's ridicule, Lu Chen said nothing.
Because it soon stopped being funny.
The twelve-petal green lotus in the pupil of Lu Chen's external incarnation began to rotate continuously.
Then, when it put its hand on the illusory long sword at its waist, the temperament of the heretic incarnation suddenly changed.
After sensing the strange aura from the incarnation of the heretic, the Golden Dragon of Fortune seemed to have thought of something terrible, and his pupils suddenly shrank.
He said in fear: "No, what is your relationship with...?!"
"Why do you know His swordsmanship?"
Lu Chen couldn't hear who the 'He' that the Golden Dragon of Luck was talking about was.
Or maybe he actually heard it, but for some reason the name of that existence turned into some notes that he could not understand.
But none of this matters anymore.
Kill! Lu Chen's external incarnation suddenly swung his sword.
The two sides were clearly more than ten meters apart, and the sword was clearly very ordinary, without even any sword energy.
But a line of blood appeared on the neck of the Golden Dragon of Fortune.
Then a dragon head fell to the ground with a loud bang.
But what fell to the ground... was actually the head of a corpse dragon.
After a moment, the little golden dragon poked its head out from the golden tripod and said hesitantly, "It was a close call. Fortunately, I transferred my soul in time, otherwise I might have been killed by your sword."
"Come on, kid, let me see how many swords you have left. I still have four lives left!"
Lu Chen looked at the three remaining dragon corpses on the golden tripod, as well as the smug little golden dragon.
A bitter smile appeared on his face, which had turned pale due to the absorption of the painful memories by the dissipation of his clone.
Since the Dragon Sword Intent was ineffective, he could just use his real body to unleash the External Sword.
It can only kill this golden dragon of luck once more.
This is really a high-end game...
Just as Lu Chen was sighing, the Golden Dragon of Luck controlled the remaining three corpse dragons and attacked Lu Chen again.
Seeing this, Lu Chen immediately put away the Black Dragon Sword and chose to respond with boxing.
However, his Collapsing Mountain Fist, which he had not yet grasped the meaning of, was at most just a tickle to the corpse dragons.
Soon, he was submerged in the corpse dragon's attack and disappeared completely...

Then...in the blink of an eye it was already past eight o'clock in the evening!
