Chapter 401 Seal Success, Fifth-Level Materials (Updated in the Evening)
The Moon Demon Clan woman felt a tearing pain in her soul, and her consciousness was dizzy and her eyes went black.
The wings behind her froze and she fell from midair.
"Priest Park!"
The injured Shadow Demon who had temporarily retreated in the distance couldn't help but let out a low cry, and didn't care about so much, dragging out a series of shadows to take care of her.
As the [Nail Head Arrow] killed the Moon Demon woman, the Moon in the sky above her head suddenly shook and began to disintegrate.
The brilliance of the Taiyin Moon Demon that illuminated the world and made people have illusions and sink their minds also dissipated.
"Fortunately..."
Jing Wufeng breathed a sigh of relief, and he didn't have to bear the pressure of the soul and will all the time.
Di Yanjun took the Ice Heart Pill and returned to normal at this moment.
Thinking of the crazy behavior controlled by the power of the Moon Demon before, Di Yanjun couldn't help but blush and bowed his head in shame.
"What are you still standing there for!"
Lu Changan snorted coldly, making Di Yanjun feel as if he had been pardoned.
He immediately went to the battlefield, together with the Qingjia puppet, to block the Iron-blooded Kui Demon who rushed into the puppet formation.
In the previous thrilling situation, half of the puppet army formation had been scrapped.
Lu Changan's attention was on the Moon Demon woman.
The effect of the nail-headed arrow attack was better than he expected. Originally, he just wanted to interrupt her casting and cause some damage.
Thoughts flew, combined with divination, Lu Changan understood the reason.
The Moon Demon Priest is equivalent to the peak of the early Nascent Soul, even if the power of the soul is comparable to the middle Nascent Soul.
This woman has the amplification of cross-border divine thoughts, and she can cast the Demon Moon Reflecting the Sky, which is almost the power of the Nascent Soul Great Monk. The load on the soul is extremely large.
Lu Changan's nail-headed arrow has a much longer attack range than ordinary magic weapons. In addition to its own lethality, it also causes the high-load Moon Demon Priest to backfire and suffer double damage.
The opponent may not have expected that the nail-headed arrow has such a long attack range. More importantly, Lu Changan was able to break free from the Moon Demon Illusion so quickly and quickly launch a key counterattack.
Lu Changan broke free from the Moon Demon Illusion even faster than Jing Wufeng.
Not only because Lu Changan's soul was stronger at this moment, comparable to the peak of the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, but Changqing Gong also had a bonus on the state of mind.
There was another reason, that was the secret method of the Heavenly Demon that Lu Changan obtained from the outer demon when he was undergoing the tribulation.
The Heavenly Demon Secret Method, Lu Changan's cultivation level was average, just the entry level, suitable for bullying lower-level cultivators. But practicing this secret technique invisibly enhances the resistance to the Moon Demon Illusion.
Therefore, Lu Changan was able to withstand the influence of the Demon Moon Reflecting the Sky and forcefully hit a nail-headed arrow, which was completely beyond the enemy's expectations.
...
"What a fast speed! No wonder Fellow Daoist Jing almost died."
Lu Changan took back the bloody nail-headed arrow and wanted to add another one.
However, the shadow demon caught the Moon Demon Priest who was about to fall to the ground at a speed that he had never seen in his past lives.
The speed of the Shadow Demon was at least at the level of a great monk.
After catching Priest Park, the half-empty body of the Shadow Demon solidified a little, showing ink-colored skin, but the body was not a physical entity, and there was no shadow on the ground, which looked extremely weird.
The palm of the Shadow Demon glowed with a light gray light, which penetrated into Priest Park's head, stabilized the fatal wound, and quickly stopped the bleeding.
Priest Park was pale and opened his eyes with difficulty. A stream of moonlight flowed from his body, and the wounds began to heal wherever it passed. Its healing effect was not inferior to the conventional Changqing Gong.
The nail-headed arrow attack was biased towards the soul level.
At a longer distance, the material level of killing was greatly reduced. Even if it penetrated the head, it could not kill the Yuanying monk instantly, let alone the non-human Moon Demon Clan.
"Lord Qianying, be careful of that man's vicious magic weapon..."
"Hmph! That kid's soul magic weapon can't hurt me."
The Shadow Demon snorted and protected Priest Park behind him.
"If I hadn't traveled through the two worlds and broken through the seal formation, I would have been seriously injured and my cultivation would have fallen. I could have killed those two humans in the early Nascent Soul stage."
Lord Qianying's cold and dark eyes met with Lu Changan who was looking at him from a distance.
The four eyes met, and the senses attached to the spiritual consciousness made invisible contact with the aura.
Lu Changan was shocked, "This Shadow Demon was probably a great cultivator of the fourth-level peak in his prime."
No wonder this demon was seriously injured and his cultivation fell to the middle stage of the fourth level, and he still had a body movement speed comparable to that of a great cultivator of the Nascent Soul.
Normally, the seal formation seals the big ones but not the small ones, and it is almost impossible for the late fourth-level monsters to escape.
The seal formation has its own induction. The more powerful the target, the greater the restriction of the seal formation on it.
But before that, the venerable of the Demon Peak Realm attached himself to the immortal giant demon with his cross-realm divine thoughts, causing a demonic wave impact and shaking the seal formation.
This gave the fish that slipped through the net a chance to break through.
Fortunately, Jing Wufeng repaired the biggest hole in the seal a little bit, and no stronger demon escaped.
"Even if the shadow demon is seriously injured and his cultivation level drops, it will be difficult for [Nail Head Arrow] to hurt him."
Lu Changan's thoughts turned quickly, and he decided to save his strength first and not do useless work.
...
"Ahem... Fellow Daoist Xiang..."
Not far away, Jing Wufeng looked pale, his abdominal wound was stained with blood, and he looked very weak.
"Fellow Daoist Jing, are you okay?"
Seeing that the situation had stabilized, Lu Changan hurried to Jing Wufeng's side.
"Fortunately, there is this newly refined ancient armor that blocked some of the damage, otherwise I might have really died just now."
Jing Wufeng smiled bitterly. His injuries were very serious. There was a strange shadow-like demonic power that destroyed and strangled his internal organs, and a large amount of life was lost.
If it weren't for the forcible suppression of magic power and taking the life-saving holy pill, Jing Wufeng would have had to use his Nascent Soul to save his life and abandon this empty Taoist body.
Lu Changan activated the Changqing Gong, and placed his palm on Jing Wufeng's back to heal his wounds and restore his vitality.
There is no problem with the miraculous hand.
But Jing Wufeng was seriously injured and could not recover in a short time. The damage caused by the strange shadow would also affect the healing speed of the Changqing Gong.
In the world of immortal cultivation, the higher the level of damage, the more difficult it is to heal.
For example, the negative aura released by the wounds of the Nascent Soul and the God of Transformation can bring danger to low-level cultivators, not to mention treatment.
The crazy loss of life in Jing Wufeng's body was curbed, and the severe injuries began to recover slowly.
It is estimated that most of the injuries can be recovered in ten days and a half.
If it were on a normal day, this recovery speed would be a good situation.
But at this moment, the critical situation has not been resolved.
The Iron Blood Kui Demon relied on the immortality and launched a brutal attack. The Qingjia Puppet and the Earth Rock Lord barely supported it.
Especially the Earth Rock Lord, who made up for his mistakes, fought hard, and resisted the Iron Blood Puppet Demon head-on, and was seriously injured.
On the other side, Priest Park recovered from the pain of the soul, Taiyin Yuehua repaired the injury, and took another holy pill.
Priest Park's injuries were divided into two parts: the soul and the body. After escaping from danger, her condition was better than Jing Wufeng.
As a Moon Demon Priest, she healed herself and recovered more efficiently.
"Lord Qianying, I will find it difficult to use powerful magic spells next, but I can barely control those demonized bats."
Priest Park forced a smile, his voice weak.
"Well, Tianyi's disciples are seriously injured and have lost their fighting power. Later, Priest Park only needs to hide in the rear to control the flying monsters and support me in my attack."
Lord Qianying spoke calmly, confident of victory.
The enemy only has one Yuanying in the early stage, and even with the pet puppet, its strength is comparable to that of the middle stage of the Yuanying.
And our own living combat power is stronger.
The Iron-blooded Kui Demon was weakened by [Withered Divine Light], but still has the strength of the middle stage of the Yuanying.
Lord Qianying is stronger, far beyond the average middle stage of the Yuanying.
After Priest Park recovered his mobility, he flew to the cave in the back, far beyond the attack range of Lu Changan's nail-headed arrows.
...
In just a few minutes, the overwhelming demon moths and demon bats near the Sealed Abyss gathered in an organization again and launched an attack.
With this help, the Iron Blood Demon Puppet's attack became more fierce.
If Lu Changan took action, he would not be able to save Jing Wufeng.
Jing Wufeng activated a fourth-level spiritual talisman, which turned into an ice crystal palace, covering the two inside, and resisting the remaining flying monsters that were coming to kill him.
At the same time, the ice crystal palace also has the function of isolating the senses of spiritual consciousness.
"Hehe, I haven't made a move yet, and I've made you exhausted."
Lord Qianying was confident that he would be able to make a final decision if he made another move.
The most reliable strategy is to let the flying monsters and the Iron Blood Kui Demon with the indestructible characteristics consume more, and then attack them suddenly when they are exhausted.
However, this is the world of the human race after all. In order to avoid unknown variables, Lord Qianying decided to fight quickly.
Swish!
Lord Qianying's semi-void shadow form quietly approached the target under the cover of the demon bats and demon moths in the sky.
In the air above the sealed hole, a torn black robe floated, which had rushed out with the explosion of demonic energy.
"The personal robe of the Saint Lord..."
Lord Qianying had been hiding in the torn black robe before. Although the robe was damaged, its material had a good concealing effect.
At that time, in order to launch an unexpected and extreme attack, Lord Qianying jumped out of the robe and did not collect it immediately.
Lord Qianying sneaked quietly, preparing to collect the torn black robe.
At this moment.
An ancient sea flag fluttered in the air in front, and two Yuanying-level magic powers were turbulent.
Boom!
The raging storm waves swept in, engulfing tens of thousands of flying monsters.
The torn black robe was also engulfed by the wind and waves like a natural disaster, and disappeared.
The raging storm ocean covered an area of two or three miles, forming a vast ocean area, trapping the Iron-Blooded Kui Demon in it.
"Tianyi disciples, why do you still have the strength to fight?"
The Qianying Lord was blocked outside by the holy flag water area, his expression changed, feeling bad.
He clearly sensed that the two Yuanying magic powers worked together to drive the sea flag magic weapon to form a water boundary.
It is impossible for a single Yuanying in the early stage to exert such power with a top-grade magic weapon to block it out.
Tianyi disciples were stabbed by him and their injuries were fatal. How could they recover such magic power in a short period of time?
"The characteristics of the immortal body should be able to hold on."
The Qianying Lord had a solemn expression, and his hands formed seals. A spear-shaped shadow gray flow formed in front of him, outlining a series of magic patterns that broke the formation.
Even if his cultivation level dropped, he was confident that he could break through the waters within a few breaths.
Just as Lord Qianying was about to use his domain-breaking method, he felt the waves in the waters bursting and heard the waves of fierce fighting.
…
Puff!
A gap was cut in the holy flag waters, and Lord Qianying couldn't wait to rush in.
However, the scene in the waters made his pupils condense, and he sensed a dangerous breath of destruction.
The Iron-Blooded Kui Demon was beaten by more than four True Lords, and there were several bloody wounds on his body.
The huge demon's head was pressed by surging waves, mixed with heavy water light.
His legs were entangled by wood vines and fell into the petrified sand dunes, making it difficult to move.
A blue-black fang containing a strong poison was pierced into his neck, and it fell off in the roar of the demon.
An even more terrifying breath came from an ancient dark green axe that appeared in front of Jing Wufeng.
The seemingly rough broad-bladed axe was consuming a large amount of mana, the power of heaven and earth.
Lu Changan and Jing Wufeng both injected their mana into the [Sky-Splitting Axe].
In an instant, the void roared, the ocean split in two, and a beam of annihilation axe light passed by, like a chasm between heaven and earth.
With the two Yuanyings working together, the power of [Sky-Splitting Axe] was even greater than that day, and could even pose a threat to Yuanying masters.
Roar!
The Iron-Blooded Kui Demon's eyes were bloodshot, and he was desperate and crazy. Because he was trapped in the water, he was restricted by many means, and his strength was declining, so he had nowhere to hide.
Puff!
The huge dark brown demon body was cut into two pieces by the axe light that split the sky and the earth, and collapsed with a bang.
The blade of the axe, along the original wound, chopped the heart of the Iron-Blooded Kui Demon, strangling the source of its indestructible power.
Boom!
The beam of annihilation axe light, along the separated waves, even chopped outside the water.
"Fake spiritual treasure! Is the Tianyi disciple at full power?"
The eyes of Lord Qianying widened and turned into a shadow, quickly avoiding the impact of the sky-splitting axe light and the sea storm.
This outsider was in doubt and looked at Jing Wufeng in the distance. His face had recovered a lot, and his magic power was at full power!
Such a reality made him feel depressed.
"Retreat!"
Lord Qianying was not confident enough to fight against many fourth-level human warriors in the enemy's holy flag waters.
The Tianyi disciple and the white-clothed man beside him were not ordinary Yuanying Zhenjun at all.
Lord Qianying's body movements were strange, and his speed was comparable to that of a Yuanying great cultivator. Lu Changan and Jing Wufeng could only watch him leave.
...
Inside the Sea and Sky Holy Flag.
The waters that were split by the surging waves healed again.
Lu Changan and Jing Wufeng sat on a seven-zhang wide dark green turtle.
When besieging the Iron-Blooded Kui Demon, the Black Water Turtle also participated. It thrived in the water, and its spells were enhanced, controlling the heavy water to limit the target.
Jing Wufeng sat cross-legged to regulate his breath, and he sighed with lingering fear:
"Fortunately, I cooperated with Brother Xiang who practiced the Changqing Gong, otherwise it would be difficult for Jing to recover from most of his injuries in a short time."
It turned out that Lu Changan sacrificed his life span in order to resolve the crisis, and used the Changqing secret technique to quickly repair his injuries in a short time.
This was the first time Lu Changan tried the Yuanying-level Changqing secret technique treatment. His total life span was more than 2,000 years, and the life-shortening treatment was very effective.
After his injuries were stabilized, Jing Wufeng took the Millennium Spirit Milk, and his mana was instantly restored.
It was this reversal of the Changqing Gong that led to the scene of using the [Sea and Sky Holy Flag] to trap the enemy and the [Sky-Splitting Axe] to establish his prestige.
"Fellow Daoist Jing, the treatment just now consumed several years of Xiang's precious life span. This matter is not included in the agreement and oath of that year."
Lu Chang'an looked bitter as if he had suffered a great loss.
The emergency treatment just now shortened his life span by about two years. Compared with the life span consumed by the fourth-level divination, it is actually not worth mentioning.
Jing Wufeng smiled bitterly, knowing that he owed a lot, and promised:
"Xiang Zhenjun brought back the dead with his miraculous hands. Jing remembers the favor today and owes a promise."
After that, he stood up and bowed solemnly.
He glanced at the body of the Iron-Blooded Kui Demon and the tattered black robe brought by the Earth Rock Rat.
Jing Wufeng said again: "The harvest of the battle of sealing the demons will be handled by Xiang Zhenjun. Jing will only take some evidence and report to the sect in the future."
"No problem."
Lu Chang'an took the tattered black robe brought by the Earth Rock Lord and looked at it carefully.
At first, this thing came out of the seal hole with the eruption of demonic energy, and Lu Chang'an noticed it.
The divination at that time encountered obvious resistance, and found that the material of this robe was extraordinary.
"It is actually a fifth-level material!"
Lu Changan touched the material and combined with the divination identification, he came to a preliminary conclusion.
Unfortunately, this is not a real fifth-level magic weapon, but a portable robe made of fifth-level material. Due to severe damage, its function has been greatly lost.
However, Lu Changan found that this robe has excellent concealment ability and can deceive the detection of divine consciousness.
Di Yanjun and Qingjia puppet are dealing with the body of Tiexue Kuimo.
This is a branch of the demon clan in the middle stage of the fourth level, not the previous demonized monster. Its materials are more precious and can be used to refine puppets and tools, and even to boost magic skills.
…
Two hours later.
Under the cover of the waters of the Sea and Sky Holy Flag, Jing Wufeng successfully completed the repair of the seal formation.
"Finally done!"
Jing Wufeng's tired face revealed a hint of excitement.
He thought to himself that this trial mission had unexpected risks and the difficulty had greatly increased.
After collecting evidence, he would report to the master, and he could increase the evaluation of the trial mission, so as to exchange more resources.
Jing Wufeng was sure that the change caused by the cross-border divine thoughts of the Demon Saint must be an accident and not in the mission plan.
Because the big man called the Saint in the Demon Clan corresponds to the Refining Void Venerable of human cultivators.
Fortunately, the collaborator was powerful, and severely injured the Moon Demon Priest with the [Nail Head Arrow], and then used the Changqing Gong to bring him back to life, reversing the situation.
Otherwise, the best situation for Jing Wufeng this time would be that the Nascent Soul would escape, and it might not succeed.
Although his Nascent Soul also mastered the Void Escape Technique, the Shadow Demon was probably a follower of the peak of the late fourth stage, and most likely had means to prevent the Nascent Soul from escaping.
Lu Changan obtained almost all the spoils of war and cooperated with Jing Wufeng to collect evidence.
The blood of the Moon Demon clan left on the nail-headed arrow was the first.
The limb parts and demon blood of the Iron-Blooded Kui Demon were the second.
The bloody finger of the Shadow Demon's severed arm was the third.
The three major evidence materials made Jing Wufeng very satisfied.
After the battle of sealing the demons, Lu Changan became interested in Jing Wufeng's mysterious identity. He might know the truth by checking the intelligence of the top forces in Tianheng Continent in the future.
Previously, the Moon Demon Priest's address to Tianyi disciples was a private communication, and Lu Changan did not hear it.
...
"Senior Spirit of the Artifact..."
After repairing the seal formation, Jing Wufeng saluted and greeted the Tongtian Lingbao [Eight Dragon Lock] under the Demon Abyss.
Lu Changan said nothing.
He brought the Xuantian Gourd Vine with him this time. If the Tongtian Lingbao spirit noticed it, it would be bad.
From Jing Wufeng's previous description, it can be inferred that the Tongtian Lingbao should be a top treasure close to the Xuantian Supreme Treasure.
After a while, the golden light of [Eight Dragon Lock] floated, and an old and weak voice came:
"Youngsters, report today's events to your elders as soon as possible, and let the top forces of Tianheng Continent know."
"I have been eroded by the Ten Thousand Demons, and need to sleep for many years to cultivate my spiritual heart. I don't have time to chat with you..."
The spirit gave two instructions and fell asleep again.
Jing Wufeng bowed again and agreed.
Report to the elders?
Lu Changan said nothing. He didn't know which elder to report to. He couldn't ask Yan Donglai, right?
After communicating with the spirit, the two prepared to leave the Demon Abyss.
Jing Wufeng put away the Sea and Sky Holy Flag.
Lu Changan felt a little pain when he received the half-destroyed puppet army.
Fortunately, Jing Wufeng promised to make up for the loss of the puppet army.
However, it is not so easy to gather the materials for eight third-level high-quality puppets.
Lu Changan thought that the puppet army was mainly used for positional warfare, and would be of limited help to him in the future.
He suggested that other fourth-level materials could be exchanged, including alien spirit puppets and materials for repairing the space teleportation array of Tinghai Pavilion.
Jing Wufeng readily agreed and tried his best to meet Lu Changan's needs.
...
After a while, Lu Changan and Jing Wufeng left the seal of the Demon Abyss and set off on their return journey.
"Xiang Zhenjun, do you know the whereabouts of the shadow demon? Will we be ambushed and attacked by it on the way back?"
Jing Wufeng's injuries have not healed, and he is still frightened by the assassination of the Thousand Shadow Lord.
The speed of the shadow demon is too fast, and it is more mobile than him, forming a certain restraint.
"The Shadow Demon broke through the seal, was seriously injured, and his cultivation fell; the Moon Demon Priest was also seriously injured by Xiang. They are avoiding us at the moment, and are moving away from the Demon Sealing Land, looking for a place to recuperate, so as to avoid being hunted down by the masters of Tianheng Continent."
Lu Changan has enough mediums, and he had a fortune-telling before leaving. The hexagram he calculated is in line with normal logical judgment.
If he is an alien invader, he will also stay away from the scene after sneaking into the alien world. Find a place to lurk for several years, recuperate, and do things in a low-key manner.
"That's right, as long as the two of us don't separate, the Shadow Demon's attack will not be a threat."
Jing Wufeng thought of Lu Changan's Changqing Gong, and couldn't help but feel at ease.
When the two returned, they were not fast and maintained alert.
Lu Changan looked back at the endless abyss that was getting smaller and smaller behind him, and knew the thrill of this action.
Under normal circumstances, he would not take such unknown risks.
But because the spiritual contract oath is about to expire, this action cannot be avoided.
Besides, the normal sealing of demons does not have such risks and is relatively controllable. His fourth-level divination cannot calculate the variables at the level of the Venerable Divine Mind.
"This sealing of demons can be regarded as paying off the old debts before the Nascent Soul."
Having fulfilled the oath, Lu Changan felt relieved.
If it were not for Jing Wufeng's help, hunting down the demon stone heart dragon, Di Yanjun would probably fail to advance to the fourth level.
Only after Di Yanjun became a fourth-level demon king, Lu Changan was able to form a Nascent Soul so smoothly and easily obtain a large amount of resources.
As the goal of the Nascent Soul that he has worked hard for three lifetimes, the opportunity at the key node cannot be without any risk.
Lu Changan is equivalent to enjoying the agreed benefits in advance, and the risk is postponed to after the Nascent Soul stage.
...
Half a month later.
Lu Changan and Jing Wufeng left the most dangerous area at the core of the ancient battlefield and returned to the relatively safe outer area of the forbidden area.
At this time, Jing Wufeng and Di Yanjun's injuries have healed.
Lu Changan and the others are in a good mood, and the atmosphere on the road is also much more relaxed.
"Fellow Daoist Jing is knowledgeable and has seen through Xiang's Changqing Gong. Have you heard of the deeds of the Nascent Soul master Yan Donglai?"
Chatting on the road, Lu Changan took the opportunity to ask.
Jing Wufeng owed him a lot for this operation, and if there is no taboo, he will not hide it.
"Legendary Great Monk Yan Donglai? The longest-lived monk in Tianheng Continent, a legendary figure in the "Universe Strange People Series", Jing has naturally heard of him."
Jing Wufeng smiled slightly, having expected Xiang Dalong to ask this question.
Because this is also a question that other Changqing Gong practitioners are concerned about.
