Chapter 324: Chapter 299: Killing the Primordial Spirit_1
Shen Yinuo, after stepping into the True Body Seventh Refinement, saw her combat power skyrocket. Now, in a head-on confrontation, she no longer feared the middle-aged woman. The two of them exchanged more than a dozen moves in a blink of an eye, with no clear winner.
Refining the Nine Yang Divine Stone, Shen Yinuo not only transformed her true body and avatar, her Great Sun Melting Furnace and even the Great Sun God Fist she wielded, were all enhanced.
On the Great Sun God Fist, a layer of purple flame emerged, causing a rapid rise in temperature. Every time they clashed, the middle-aged woman had to expend a great amount of power to counteract it.
Whiz whiz whiz...
At this moment, Lu Yan continuously drew his bow, shooting a barrage of Nine Ring Arrows at the middle-aged woman.
The middle-aged woman was already struggling to deal with Shen Yinuo alone. Now, under Lu Yan’s attack, she was disorganised and unable to retaliate. She could only play defensively.
She called upon the Heavenly Earth Power to form a thick layer of defense around her while also rapidly swinging her polearm, creating a dense curtain of weapon shadows around her.
Clang clang clang...
The arrows shot by Lu Yan were blocked by the middle-aged woman one by one.
Some were blocked by the polearm, some were stopped by the Heavenly Earth Power enveloping her. However, the layer of protective Heavenly Earth Power was violently shaking and rapidly weakening, growing dull and lightless.
Shen Yinuo saw her opportunity.
The Great Sun Melting Furnace vibrated, opening its lid and pouring out a stream of thick, lava-like purple flame.
The purple flame splashed toward the middle-aged woman.
Her already dull protective power hissed, and then was burned through. The purple flames engulfed the middle-aged woman.
This flame was extremely terrifying. The middle-aged woman instantly let out a scream and madly rushed towards the distance.
The two of them wouldn’t let her escape and quickly pursued her, with Lu Yan continually shooting his bow.
One after another, the arrows shot out like meteors.
The middle-aged woman resisted with all her might, but most of her strength was used to combat the purple flame. When she was distracted by the arrows, she was invaded by the flame, screaming tragically as her body emitted a smell of burnt flesh.
With her attention divided, she could hardly cope with either.
Thud!
An arrow hit the middle-aged woman’s chest. Even though she relied on her powerful true body and defensive power to keep her body from exploding, a huge hole was blasted in her chest, which was transparent from front to back.
The purple flame took the opportunity to penetrate and burn her internal organs.
"Die with me."
The middle-aged woman howled, wildly rushing toward Lu Yan and Shen Yinuo with an astonishing fluctuation emanating from her body.
"Not good, she’s going to self-destruct her body, retreat."
Lu Yan and Shen Yinuo retreated quickly.
Boom!
The next moment, the middle-aged woman’s body burst open, the destructive energy swept all around. The Lava Lake surged up like a monstrous wave, reaching several tens of meters high.
Just before her body exploded, a figure burst from the woman’s forehead, clutching a golden polearm and rushing toward the distance.
It was her soul.
One could say the middle-aged woman was incredibly decisive. Knowing it was hard to escape today, she chose to self-destruct her body, creating an opportunity for her soul to escape.
Although the soul was weak at the First Transformation, without the protection of a physical body, it would soon dissipate.
But there was still some hope of survival. As long as she escaped back to the Fairy Ruins and asked the Immortal Lord for help, she might not necessarily die.
Just then, a gigantic figure burst out of the lava, opened its mouth and swallowed the middle-aged woman’s soul and the golden polearm, then dived back into the lava and disappeared.
It was the Fire Jiaolong.
"Dare to snatch food from a tiger’s mouth, let this lady teach you a good lesson."
Shen Yinuo protected herself with the Great Sun Melting Furnace and dived into the lava as well.
The next moment, the Lava Lake churned up huge waves, and the faint sound of dragon chants could be heard.
A moment later, the Fire Jiaolong burst out of the lava, and Shen Yinuo was standing on its head, the Great Sun Melting Furnace hovering above her head, and in her hand was the golden polearm, her hair fluttering in the wind.
The Fire Jiaolong, however, looked dejected.
"Yinuo, it seems that this Fire Jiaolong is totally submissive to you now."
Lu Yan walked over and laughed.
"In the domain it excels at, it still got defeated by me, so naturally, it submitted wholeheartedly."
Shen Yinuo smiled.
Roar roar...
The Fire Jiaolong roared at Lu Yan a few times, looked at him with scorn, as if to say, "What are you looking at? You lost."/p>
Lu Yan landed a punch directly on the Fire Jiaolong’s head, making it dizzy. It took a good while for the Fire Jiaolong to react, it roared in anger, lunged at Lu Yan, his teeth and claws dancing, as if it couldn’t wait to tear Lu Yan apart.
"Yinuo, this beast seems to be unconvinced, let me spar with it again, might as well practice the True Dragon Nine Strikes."
Lu Yan said with a laugh.
Shen Yinuo gave the Fire Jiaolong a sympathetic look and left.
Roar!
The Fire Jiaolong immediately pounced on Lu Yan, who activated his Supreme Physical Martial Arts and executed the True Dragon Nine Strikes, battling the Fire Jiaolong.
Not long after.
The Fire Jiaolong entered a state of exhaustion, looking like a defeated creature, lying on the lava, its head full of bumps.
The way it looked at Lu Yan had also changed to fear.
It didn’t expect that Lu Yan, who was its defeated opponent not long ago, would improve so quickly. Now, Lu Yan was fully capable of suppressing it.
"These two are freaks."
The Fire Jiaolong sighed in his heart, their cultivation levels were obviously weaker than its, but their strengths were all above it.
After all, it was a Flood Dragon.
"If I brought this Fire Jiaolong out, how cool would that be?"
Lu Yan began to fantasize about riding the Fire Jiaolong and soaring through the skies.
But in the end, he shook his head.
Taking the Fire Jiaolong out was too high-profile, not his style.
He’ll wait until he’s broken through to the Primordial Spirit.
"Yinuo, let’s go."
Lu Yan said to Shen Yinuo.
Shen Yinuo nodded.
Not long after, the two returned to the surface and then flew toward the Blood Land Vein, where the Mansion of King Ming was located.
Far away from the volcanic cluster, shrouded in perennial fog in the heart of a large mountain, a furious roar echoed out, following the murder of the middle-aged woman and the beautiful young girl.
Within the dense fog, two enormous, scarlet orbs lit up, symbolizing two moons of blood.
Immediately afterwards, an immeasurable monstrosity revealed itself gingerly in the fog.
It was a colossal serpent.
The two moons of blood were its eyes.
"Who dares to kill my Immortal Servant?" it asked.
"Who has such audacity?"
With a human voice emerging from the serpent’s mouth, images of the middle-aged woman and the beautiful young woman appeared in its enormous pupils.
Eventually, the image froze on the snake-shaped bracelet worn by the beautiful girl.
Two ghostly figures materialized through the snake-shaped bracelet.
They were none other than Lu Yan and Shen Yinuo.
"These two brats, good, they have decent potential, I will take them as my new Immortal Servants."
The snake’s deep voice echoed.
In the meantime....
Another serpent, hundreds of meters long, white as snow but considerably tinier than the one before, slithered over.
"This avatar, having been refined for a thousand years, can finally be put to good use."
The bulky serpent continued, shooting a red light from its eyes that went straight into the white snake’s body. After a flicker of scarlet light in the white snake’s eyes, it soared into the air, flying away quickly, leaving the foggy region soon after.
Just as it was preparing to ascend and stare in the direction where Lu Yan and Shen Yinuo were.
Boom!
A gigantic palm descended from the heavens, pressing down on the white serpent.
With a pitiful cry, the hundred-meter-long white snake crashed down onto the earth, toppling a small mountain peak.
"Who is it?"
With a human voice coming from the snake’s mouth, it roared in fury.
Whoosh!
A long spear nailed the white snake onto the ground.
Next, a figure emerged mid-air.
It was surprisingly Chu Long.
"As Father predicted, there is major trouble within the Fairy Ruins."
Chu Long stated coldly, his gaze like lightning, he gazed at the white snake and then towards the direction of the fog, with a severe countenance.
King Ming had made a conjecture based on the news he received from Lu Yan. This situation in the Fairy Ruins required immediate action, and he promptly dispatched Chu Long to investigate.
The scene from earlier was exactly for this reason.
The enormous body of the white snake struggled madly, its tail, like flashes of silver lightning, whipped towards Chu Long.
Chu Long blocked the tail with his palm, and plunged downwards, gripping the long spear. As his strength erupted, the long spear shuddered, causing the white snake’s body to blow up into several segments.
Chu Long shot out his long spear into the air, and tens of spear shadows, rained down towards the blown apart body of the white snake.
"Human Martial Cultivator, how dare you?"
Within the dense fog, a booming roar echoed out. A colossal snake head probed out from the mountain, and a scarlet serpent tongue darted out at an astonishing speed, whipping towards Chu Long.
"Immortal!"
Chu Long muttered, not daring to underestimate his enemy, invoked his Primordial Spirit Manifestation and confronted the serpent tongue.
His Primordial Spirit Manifestation trembled and retired explosively.
"Fifth Transformation of the Primordial Spirit, quite a replenishing meal, I will devour you first."
The colossal serpent let out a shrill voice, and another segment of its head probed out.
But just then, light shone brilliantly between heaven and earth.
Countless chains of light emerged from the body of the colossal serpent.
One end connected to the colossal serpent and the other penetrated the void.
Despite the frantic struggles of the colossal serpent, it was in vain.
"Damn, damn..."
The serpent howled, and unwillingly retreated back into the dense fog, and only then did the chains of light dissipate.
"Wait until I get out, I will devour all of you. King Ming’s Mansion too, hehe..."
An unpleasant strange laughter echoed from within the fog.
"This creature, who actually let the Immortal Servant collect vows, and also let the white snake out, this is unprecedented. Things are becoming more and more abnormal. Could it be that the greatest chaos in more than a thousand years is about to ensue?"
"This matter, I need to report to the Great King as soon as possible so he could make preparations in time."
Chu Long’s eyebrows knitted together, his face expression became even more severe.
In the last ages of the ancient times, the world was in chaos, numerous powers fought for dominance, Spirit Sect wreaked havoc across the world, strange, nefarious creatures ran rampant, but in that era, there was no ’Immortal’.
And now, the Fairy Ruins are also beginning to stir.
Chu Long had a feeling that it was going to get messier from then on, possibly leading to the most chaotic period in the last five thousand years.
Any lapse in caution could lead to complete ruin.
Chu Long turned into a beam of light and disappeared from that place.
After Lu Yan and Shen Yinuo returned to the Blood Land Vein, they discovered that many powerful cultivators were on the Blood Land Vein.
Lu Yan knew that the Mansion’s reinforcements had arrived.
"Leader Chu Long."
Then, Lu Yan saw Chu Long and was greatly surprised.
Chu Long was one of the top cultivators in the Mansion of King Ming. His strength was so formidable that he could be ranked among the top five. His personal presence here implied that the matter at hand was more important than he had previously predicted.
"Huh?"
Chu Long gazed at Lu Yan carefully, saying, "Lu Yan, have you broken through the bottleneck in your cultivation?"
"Your sight is sharp, Leader."
Lu Yan cupped his hands in respect.
He had already gone through True Body Sixth Refining and could show some of his cultivation levels appropriately.
So, he had withdrawn some from his Gathering Spirit Technique before, making his true form look stronger. He indeed caught the insightful gaze of Chu Long with this trick.
