Chapter 352 No Excuse
Chapter 354 - Unjustifiable
After True Lord Stygian Water left, the duo within the illusion formation breathed a small sigh of relief.
In the previous battle, Lu Chang'an had used a secret medicine to increase his strength;the Earth Rock Rat and Jing Wufeng were both injured, and their vitality was greatly damaged from the secret technique they had executed to explode.
In such a situation, it was natural that they were unwilling to cause trouble and fight a full-strength Evil Dao Yuan Ying bitterly.
A few moments later, the spoils of war were distributed.
Lu Chang'an sealed the Essence Spirit Great Dan and the Heart of Stone Dragon.
In addition, he got one third of the dragon scales, bones, dragon blood, dragon tendons and meat, and other materials.
Jing Wufeng got materials of good value such as dragon eyes, dragon claws, and essence blood, but overall it was far inferior to Lu Chang'an.
Of course, even if the stone heart dragon was as high as a heavenly bloodline, it wasn't considered a true dragon, it was only comparable to a scaly dragon with a purer bloodline.
Above the heavenly bloodline, there is the legendary True Spirit bloodline, which has the potential to grow into a True Spirit.
Half an hour later.
Jing Wufeng's aura improved a lot and proposed, "The Demonized Stoneheart Dragon was put to death, and there might still be some rare treasures left in its lair."
Lu Changan nodded, after all, many dragons had a hobby of collecting.
After storing up the formation, the two of them flew to the Stoneheart Dragon's lair at a rapid pace.
As a result, they were too late. The Stoneheart Dragon's lair was in a mess, having been dug up and left with water stains.
"Let that woman pick up the slack."
Lu Changan and Jing Wufeng looked at each other, inevitably a little upset.
They fought hard to kill Shi Xinlong, taking no small risk, and as a result, they let that Evil Dao female YuanYing take advantage of it.
However, neither of them had cultivated to the YuanYing stage, so it was not easy for them to question and find trouble with Underwaters True Lord.
The Underwaters True Monarch is not a casual cultivator, backed by one of the sixteen sects of the Zhenhai "Black Sea Sect", its power is no less than the Great Green's Beast King Valley.
......
In the cave deeper in the Valley of Ten Thousand Devils.
Wearing a black veil on her head and her long hair hanging down her waist, Underwater True Monarch was carrying an ancient oil lamp in her hand.
The lamp's base was made of soul-raising wood, and within the halo of light that lit up inside it was wrapped in a miserable green-colored tattered ghost.
"Hades Water Daoist friend, I am fortunate to have fallen into your hands. These years, this gentleman was sealed by the stone dragon's prohibition, it is difficult to ensure that the demonized stone heart dragon, completely out of control, the day of the master of the backlash......"
The broken ghost breath fell to the foundation stage, voice communication.
"My lord's main body is trapped in a forbidden place deep in the ancient battlefield. In that forbidden place, there is a chance to advance to the late stage of YuanYing. As long as you, Hades Water Dao, help me, when my main body sees the light of day again, I will be grateful."
Hearing the compulsion of the Shura Ghost Monarch's split soul, True Lord Underwaters said in a flat tone without any ripples on his face.
"My concubine has come to the Forbidden Land of the Central Region for another important matter. Fellow Daoist Shura's situation, I'm sorry that I can't do anything about it." After saying that, she was about to close the lamp.
The Shura Ghost Monarch was the best in the mid YuanYing stage, and even he was trapped in the forbidden land, his condition unknown and unable to get out.
The Underwater True Monarch would not risk his life in such a dangerous place.
Moreover, she did have something important to do when she came to the Ancient Forbidden Land in the Central Region.
"Wait! What is the matter of Hades Water Daoist Friend coming to the Ancient Battlefield? This monarch knows the situation around the Ten Thousand Devils Valley very well."
The miserable green colored ghost on the lamp made its value known in a hurried voice.
Upon hearing this, the heart of the True Lord of Underwaters stirred, and his deep, black pearl-like eyes flared with contemplation....
In recent years, True Lord Stygian Water came to the forbidden land of the Central Region to look for clues to the Hearing Sea Pavilion.
With the investigations over the past years, she had an update on the whereabouts of the Shakhai True Lord.
The Hearing Sea Pavilion is suspected to have a hidden space node in the Central Domain Forbidden Land that can lead to the Outer State Realm.
The Hearing Sea Pavilion is a former near-sea hegemony that gave birth to a God Transforming Heavenly Monarch. On the other side of the spatial node, is there a legacy collection?
However, the forbidden area of the Central Region is too large and full of unknown dangers, not limited to magical creatures.
Even if this information was confirmed, it would be extremely difficult to find the space node.
True Lord Stygian Water could only roughly pinpoint the Valley of Ten Thousand Devils, which was where True Lord Shakai had last lost track of it decades ago.
"The spatial nodes or teleportation formations mentioned by fellow Hei Shui Dao, this monarch does not know about them either. However, twenty years ago, there was an exotic cultivator, who swept through the vicinity, and was detected by the Demonized Stoneheart Dragon, who hunted him down and killed him."
"A foreign domain cultivator? Tell us about that person."
True Lord Stygian Water's heart was delighted, her intuition told her that this was an important clue.
Because the heaven and earth environments of the various states in the Tianyan Continent were different, if one arrived at another realm from a spatial rift or a teleportation array, and did not fully integrate into the local area, one would harbor an exotic aura on their body.
After listening to the tragic green ghost's description, True Lord Hei Shui's slender brows knit up and she fell into a brief period of contemplation.
She always felt that there was a sense of familiarity with the person described by the ghost ruler's split soul.
"The Illusory Air Grand Formation that hunted the Demonic Dragon before!"
Soon, True Lord Stygian Water thought of the source of the familiarity.
Previously, due to the blockage of the Space Illusion Formation, her divine sense probing was rather blurry, but one of the human cultivators, who was exercising partial spatial aptitude and fluctuation of magic treasures, was very rare in the Great Abyss.
......
Half a month later.
Lu Chang'an and Jing Wufeng parted ways outside the Ten Thousand Devils Valley.
Lu Chang'an maintained the image of the old man in the bucket hat from the beginning to the end. Jing Wufeng was petrified during the battle and broke his disguise.
Before leaving, they made a promise.
Lu Chang'an had gained a favor this time and promised to help Jing Wufeng to go to the forbidden land in the Central Region to seal the evil place where the demonic qi was leaking within a year.
The premise is that one of Lu Chang'an and the Earth Rock Rat will be promoted to YuanYing or Transform.
Lu Chang'an is now 341 years old, cultivating to the peak of Jindan will take a few more decades, estimated to be around 380 years old, definitely won't take more than a year.
In this way, if he were to ascend to the YuanYing stage in the future, he would have ample time to prepare.
He flew out for tens of thousands of miles.
Lu Changan suddenly thought of something and looked back in the direction of the Ten Thousand Devils Valley.
The appearance of the Underwater True Lord caused him to be on guard.
Back then, this woman hunted down the Shakhai True Lord and targeted the remaining members of the Hearing Sea Pavilion most aggressively.
It is said that True Lord Hei Shui's original qualifications were not top-notch.
At least half of his cultivation abilities came from tapping into the chances of the remaining members of the Hearing Sea Pavilion.
It is not an exaggeration to say that this woman is half of the heir to the Hearing Sea Pavilion.
She owns magic treasures, specializes in water-based recluse method, secret arts and magical powers, many of which come from the Hearing Sea Pavilion, and the fusion of the clan's method.
Lu Changan was worried that this woman would dig deeper and find clues related to the spatial nodes of the Listening Sea Pavilion.
Thinking about this, Lu Changan made a slight projection and got a trigram that was not clear, but had a certain tendency....
The trigrams proved that the possibility was not low.
"There is no need to worry about this hidden danger for the time being. As long as the Earth Rock Mouse and I can successfully transform into forms and form babies, even in the prosperous Great Abyss, we will still be strong enough to stand at the top of the clouds to intimidate the party." Lu Chang'an was well aware that in seeking opportunities and constantly advancing, it was difficult to not be tainted by any hidden dangers of karma.
As long as one's strength reaches a whole new level, all the hidden dangers of the past will dissipate.
......
A few days later.
Lu Chang'an entered the sphere of influence of the "Ten Thousand Peaks Sect" in the Central Region.
The Wanfeng Sect is close to the forbidden area of the Central Region, and has a middle stage YuanYing Sect in its center, which includes several Immortal Cultivation countries, two YuanYing Sects, many Jiedan Sects, and numerous Immortal Cultivation clans.
The Wanfeng Sect's camp used to have friction with the Da Yu Kingdom, but it has calmed down in the last hundred years.
The overall strength of the Da Yu Kingdom is stronger than the Wan Feng Sect, but unlike the former, Da Yu is not geographically comfortable, so there are not many threats.
There are other powerful forces around the Daewoo country.
Lu Changan didn't go back to Daewoo immediately, but settled in the "Carefree City" in the Wanfeng Sect's sphere of influence.
When he first came to the Great Abyss, Lu Chang'an had spent more than three years in Carefree City.
When the Green Armored Puppet was upgraded to the fourth level, it was also in Carefree City.
Lu Chang'an traveled lightly and rented the third-order cave in Carefree City
The following months.
Lu Chang'an proceeded to purify the Stoneheart Dragon material parts on hand.
The Stoneheart Dragon was contaminated by demonization, and apart from the Stoneheart, the Essence Great Dan, dragon blood, bones, scales, and so on, all needed to be purified and processed, including quenching and purification.
Lu Changan's Evergreen Kung Fu, refining skills, and the Xuan Shui Turtle's water-based talent were used in a three-pronged approach to ensure the purification effect.
The memories of the Shakhai True Lord also contained such brilliant secret techniques.
The demonic energy can be removed, but the deep-rooted earth-devouring turbid energy, which is a trait of this kind, cannot be eradicated.
Fortunately, the earth rock rat's attributes are compatible, and it has absorbed the innate turbid qi, and its earth demonic power has changed, containing the earth-devouring qi.
After removing the demonic filth, it was properly quenched and purified.
In this way, the component materials that Lu Changan possessed would have no demonic characteristics, and would not easily remind people of the Stone Heart Dragon from the Forbidden Land in the Central Region.
Pseudo-dragon beasts are not rare in the Great Abyss, and there are quite a number of Jiao Dragons in the sea, including fourth-ranked Jiao Kings, which are a desirable source of materials for high-ranking cultivators.
After purifying and quenching the materials, Lu Changan carefully considered the matter of transforming the Earth Rock Rat.
He even projected and analyzed the success rate of its transformation.
"A half-step Jindan of the ground rock rat, after absorbing the innate turbid qi, it is comparable to an earth-grade bloodline, just like a human Earth Spirit Root Genius."
"The Stone Heart Dragon is a Heaven Grade Bloodline Demon King, and its Essence Great Dan, the Heart of the Stone Dragon, is a perfect fit for the Ground Rock Rat as an advancement treasure and transformation spirit."
"The [Thunder Transformation Bead] traded from Yu Yuan Jin is also suitable for beings with a strong body to withstand heavenly thunder."
"In addition, after the Xuan Vine sprouted, the center area has absorbed the five elements of earth from Xuan Tian's relics, which is different from the past, and as a supplementary spirit, it is mostly beneficial, only the effect is unknown."
Lu Changan finished combing through and found that the conditions of the Earth Rock Rat's Transformation were very good to look at.
At least, the spirit pets of Beast King Valley and other Beast Royalty Sects that impacted on the transformation would most likely not be able to enjoy such good conditions.
Putting aside the influence of the special five elements of earth, Lu Changan speculated that there should be a success rate of around fifty percent....
To Lu Chang'an, this probability is really not high, but for the living beings in the world who are impacting Transformation or YuanYing, it is already very considerable.
Lu Chang'an pondered for a long time, and thought of two complementary points.
Firstly, using the Essence Spirit Pill as the main ingredient, and asking a fourth-ranked alchemist to refine an earth-devouring type of advancement pill would be the most perfect.
However, Shi Xinlong's Essence Prana Great Dane was of high quality and fit the Earth Rock Rats very well, so even if there was no qualitative difference in refining the elixir, it would be just icing on the cake.
Secondly, the heart calamity type of spirit elixir.
The second is the heart attack, is the most difficult to guess the level, not only to test the will of the state of mind, but also depends on the luck of creation.
If one's luck was too bad and encountered an abnormally strong heart demon, even cultivators with a good heart might still have the possibility of overturning their vehicles. Lu Chang'an analyzed that the Earth Rock Rat came from a mediocre background, was self-reliant and strong-willed, and had more trials and tribulations than spirit beasts with high bloodline grades, so it should have an advantage in this regard.
However, the Heart Tribulation is so strange and unpredictable that it is difficult to determine.
A person with a strong will may also have a stronger obsession at times.
It is better to have an elixir for heart attack than not to have one at all, so there is a margin for error.
After weighing his options, Lu Changan decided to give up the first point and choose to strengthen the second point.
To refine an Earth Soul-type advancement elixir, you need to hire a fourth-ranked elixir master, and there are more variables in collecting other materials.
In the event of a slip up and a failure in alchemy, it would be a joyous occasion.
As for the second point, the Heartjack type spirit elixir, Lu Changan happened to have a clear clue.
The "Red Snake True Monarch" of Great Snake Mountain had displayed a fourth-ranked "Xuan Xin Beast Pill" at the Yun Tian City Yuan Ying Trade Fair.
This Dan can be used as the heart tribulation spirit of a demonic beast when it transforms into its form, and is highly adaptable.
"If we can obtain the [Xuanxin Beast Dan], then everything is ready and nothing is missing."
Lu Chang'an didn't intend to take this Dan by force.
In the Immortal Cultivation World, most problems were not solved by fighting and killing.
He was prepared to make a peaceful deal with the Red Snake True Lord.
Lu Chang'an had a slight understanding of the demands made by the Red Snake True Monarch at the YuanYing Trade Fair.
With certain resources at his disposal, there was a chance that he could impress the Red Snake True Lord and complete the deal.
Moreover, Great Serpent Mountain and Cloud Cloud Cloud Sect were located in the Da Yu Kingdom, so they knew each other well, making it easy for Lu Changan to plan.
If this matter doesn't work out, Lu Changan won't force himself.
If not, Lu Changan will not force the matter.
Through the Yunxia Sect's connections, it would not be too difficult to obtain a middle to lower quality heart robbing spirit, or a third-order top-grade heart-protecting elixir.
......
One month later.
Lu Chang'an returned to Da Yu Country and approached Yunxia Sect's territory.
At this time, he sensed a thousand-mile radius of the Cloud Cloud Cloud Sect's mountain gate, where heaven and earth's aura was agitating and converging.
"Yuan Ying Tribulation? Could it be True Lord Yun Qing......."
Lu Chang'an's heart stirred, slowing down his speed and stopping to watch from afar.
Boom!
In the sky above the Yunxia Sect's fourth-ranked spirit vein, dark clouds rolled in, the robbery clouds coalesced, and green-colored heavenly thunder streaked across the dome of the sky.
The awe-inspiring heavenly might made the many surrounding cultivators and countless living beings suppressed and trembling.
"Heavenly Thunder Pass? True Lord Yun Qing has successfully shattered his dan and transformed into a baby."
As Lu Changan approached the mountain gate, he found that the entire Yunxia Sect was surrounded by clouds of colored light, and the fourth-order Protector Formation was opened, isolating it from the outside world.
Sect cultivators forming babies, this kind of precaution is considered normal....
Yunxia Sect's mountain guardian cultivator, noticing Lu Changan who had returned, immediately informed the top.
Not long after.
Patriarch Hu, who had white hair and a withered face, flew to the front of the mountain gate and communicated with Lu Chang'an across the fourth-stage grand formation.
"Elder Xiang, the timing of your return is not coincidental, True Lord Yun Qing is at the critical moment of baby formation."
Patriarch Hu looked ashamed and smiled bitterly,
"The Supreme Elder gave the word: before the end of the Infant Formation and Transition, in order to prevent the hostile sects from obstructing, the entry and exit are blocked."
"No harm. After Infant Formation, Xiang Mou will enter the mountain gate again."
Lu Chang'an smiled and expressed his cooperation.
The Taishang Elder who gave the word did not say who it was, it was most likely True Lord Yun Lan.
Such behavior was a lack of trust in Lu Chang'an, a foreign guest elder, and a lack of due respect.
Of course, it is crucial to form a baby and pass through the tribulation.
Sealing off the entire clan and not allowing any hint of accidental factors, this kind of prudence is nothing to be ashamed of.
Lu Chang'an sat cross-legged on a boulder outside the mountain gate.
In the past, he boasted that he was the lucky star of the clan, but when someone from his clan had a YuanYing transition, he was actually rejected.
Lu Changan originally wanted to return the favor, after returning to the main peak of the cave, will germinate the Xuan Tian gourd vine, the first time planted in the same place.
Half an hour later.
The triple heavenly thunderbolt, a strong round, successively in the sky above the main peak of Yun Lan.
The heavenly thunderbolts brewing on top of the robbing clouds slowly dissipated.
Due to the isolation of the formation, Lu Changan couldn't see the specific scene. But he vaguely sensed that a newly birthed YuanYing breath, after the wind and thunder baptism, the breath weakened a cut, but stubbornly resisted.
"Worthy of being an Immortal Jindan of a great sect, with abundant resources and spirits, it smoothly shattered the dan and transformed into a baby, surviving the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation."
Lu Changan secretly praised, this was an advantage that could not be envied.
If you can customize a new reincarnation in the future, your birth cannot be too bad.
After the end of the Heavenly Thunder, the rolling robber clouds in the sky did not dissipate.
Whew!
The gray robberies clouds were vaguely black, and the twisted vortex in the center of them was like a pitch-black devil's pupil, emitting a calamitous aura that made people's hearts and minds uneasy.
"The third level, the heart demonic calamity."
Lu Changan's heart was aghast, this was the most dangerous and unpredictable level of the YuanYing Tribulation.
For Immortal Jindan, the Heart Demon Tribulation has the greatest percentage of failure.
At the third level, Lu Changan waited outside the mountain gate for a day and a night.
"Heart Demon Tribulation, the longer we delay, the less hope we have."
Lu Changan looked at the sky from afar, and the large Yunxia Sect mountain gate seemed to be shrouded in sorrowful clouds.
Until a certain moment.
The dome of the sky black pressure of the huge robberies clouds, roar, dispersed in all directions, to restore the clear blue sky clear sky.
Waiting for another half an hour.
Did not hear the sound of celebrating the clan, the disciples in the door is very quiet.
The protective formation was finally opened.
Lu Changan was silent as he stepped through the mountain gate after a year and returned to his cave at Qingluan Peak.
