Chapter 255 Sharp Measures!
In the vast valley, various restrictions flashed, and some of them directly manifested the appearance of dragons, black turtles, etc., which attracted the cultivators on the spirit ship to marvel.
Shen Lian followed Jiang Jiyu down the black spirit ship, and his eyes also took in the scene in the valley.
At the same time, his divine thoughts also honestly converged.
Just now, he noticed a divine thought that was not weaker than his, and there was no doubt that it was a divine thought at the Nascent Soul level.
Even if the demon clan's soul is a weak point, it is still necessary to remain absolutely vigilant when facing the fourth-level demon king.
"These restrictions are reinforced by many demon kings in the mountains over the years."
Seeing Shen Lian looking at the restrictions, Jiang Jiyu also started to introduce them.
Shen Lian nodded and sighed, "The divine power is like a prison, and the vastness is like the sea."
"Fellow Daoist Ding can talk."
"It is said that some great cultivators of the human race came here in the past, but they all returned here in defeat."
At some point, the old monster Yang came up again.
Shen Lian's eyes showed a trace of horror at the right time, which was clearly revealed in the perception of the two half-demon monks around him.
In Shen Lian's eyes, the void formed by the spiritual forbidden array here is the true portrayal of the eight words he just said.
Countless restrictions, from the first level to the fourth level, form a complete large-scale restriction with each other. It is not an empty talk to be able to resist the late Yuanying great monks.
Moreover, Shen Lian also found that some of these restrictions were the first time he saw them, and they did not exist in the inheritance.
It can be seen that these restrictions that he had never seen should be the monks who have recently innovated.
Thinking of this, he touched his head. It seems that his version should not be updated, and he still uses the craftsmanship of the previous generation.
It takes a long time for a rune to evolve, and some prescriptions and spiritual planting techniques need a long time to verify bit by bit.
This situation has occurred for the second time.
Shen Lian silently suppressed his thoughts and swept his eyes over the monks around him.
The number of Jindan cultivators coming down from the black spirit ships around him exceeded 500, which made him a little surprised.
The appeal of Canglan Mountain is too strong.
"Let's go."
Jiang Jiyu pointed to the depths of the valley, where there was a huge black palace built against the mountain. The destination of the cultivators coming down from the spirit ships was this black palace.
Until now, Shen Lian still hadn't figured out the exact purpose of Jiang Jiyu calling him here, but it didn't matter much to see the Jindan cultivators coming and going around.
In the black palace, there were rows of quaint stone chairs, but there were no rules. The cultivators who came could sit anywhere, even those in the early stage of Jindan could sit in the first row.
However, the cultivators in the early stage of Jindan were very self-aware, and they all shrank back and carefully observed the surroundings.
Shen Lian and the other two chose a seat in the middle area to sit down.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, this fellow Daoist looks unfamiliar. Why don't you introduce him to me? Where did he come from?"
"Ha, this is Fellow Daoist Han, a third-level lower-grade weapon refiner, who came here specially to join in the fun."
"Master Huo, long time no see. I heard that you refined a third-level upper-grade magic weapon Tonghuo Sword a few days ago?"
"Shopkeeper Shen, this must be your new third-level puppet master."
...
The hall was very quiet, and the cultivators all communicated with their divine thoughts.
But for Shen Lian, it was too easy to secretly intercept some of the conversations.
Through eavesdropping, he found that one-fifth of the cultivators who came were various craftsmen, puppet masters, weapon refiners, spiritual plant masters, alchemists, and some unconventional insect trainers, magic masters, etc.
Among these people, a small number of them, like Shen Lian, were here for the first time, but more seemed to have been here more than once.
"A third-grade top-grade dragon marrow phoenix yang pill, one can be equivalent to our twenty years of hard work. Lord Canglan Demon King really feels our pulse."
"Unfortunately, we are not strong enough to get such a good thing."
"Alas, I have wanted to obtain the inner alchemy fire of the dragon king for decades, but now I can't get it."
"The inner alchemy fire of the dragon king was personally refined by a great demon king. Although it is an acquired spiritual fire, it is more suitable for alchemists and weapon refiners like you and me than some heaven and earth spiritual fires. Once you use it for yourself, your craftsmanship will definitely improve in the future."
"A third-grade great perfection of the golden-patterned ape, what a good puppet embryo. If we can get it and make a puppet to bring back to the sect, even if I die in the future, the sect can leave a treasure that can protect the sect."
In the corner of the hall, an old man with poor spirit but bright eyes sighed.
"This is the last chance. With my current energy and spirit, I am afraid that I will fall down next time and will never get the reward from the demon king again."
...
"That person is a famous puppet master nearby. He once made two third-grade high-quality puppets."
Jiang Jiyu pointed to the old man in the corner, "This old man has come here many times, wanting to get the reward from the demon king, but his luck is bad and he returns empty-handed every time."
"Everyone has come here this way. The reward from the demon king is not easy to get..."
At this moment, even though Jiang Jiyu had kept it a secret before, Shen Lian almost understood the purpose of this visit.
The great demon king of Canglan Mountain took out the treasure and asked various craftsmen to refine some things.
Moreover, the things that the Great Demon King wants to refine are not ordinary, even a third-level top-grade puppet master may not be able to complete them.
At this moment, Shen Lian was also somewhat curious about what the Demon King was going to do.
"That master of fire refining, a third-level top-grade weapon refiner."
"The green-clothed female cultivator is called Lin Nu, who has mastered the cultivation of spiritual plants. The most outstanding time was that she cultivated a 2,000-year-old Qingji Shenhun Grass to a 3,900-year-old medicinal age in just over ten years, and did a lot to treat the soul injury of a Yuanying senior."
At this point, Jiang Jiyu lowered the sound transmission breath.
"This Yuanying senior has recently become a late Yuanying great cultivator."
Shen Lian raised his eyebrows and took another look at the female cultivator who was like a green spiritual grass. The whole person stood there without paying attention to the eyes of other cultivators around her, always immersed in her own world.
The horror of high-level craftsmen lies in the possibility of making friends with higher-level cultivators.
This spiritual plant master has a great cultivator in the late Yuanying stage behind him, so his path of cultivation is quite bright.
Unlike him, he has nothing, his family is poor, and he can only rely on himself.
While Shen Lian was sighing, a white-haired fox slowly walked outside the hall, with rolling demonic energy under its four furry paws.
When it reached the center of the hall, the rolling demonic energy suddenly exploded, and a female cultivator with a curvy figure appeared. The veil gently covered the places that should not be covered, and the places that should be covered were not covered at all, and the whole body exuded holy light.
"All are here."
The transformed fox demon stared at the cultivators in the hall with a pair of watery eyes.
"There are old friends and new friends. I will tell you the rules again."
"The demon king wants to make something, and needs the help of all the craftsmen."
"If you want to do your part for the demon king, you need to pass a little test."
"Only the monks who pass the test can continue to stay and do their best for the demon king's gadgets."
As he said that, the fox demon snapped his fingers.
The hall trembled slightly, and then two colorful rivers of spiritual light fell from the dome above the hall.
The long river splashed a little water when it fell to the ground, forming a spiritual light gate covered with ancient patterns on the left and right.
"Old rules, craftsmen on the left, ordinary monks on the right."
"The test time is three days, and those who fail will return."
...
After the light gate appeared, the monks in the hall began to move. Most of them had been here more than once and knew the rules here long ago.
"Fellow Daoist Ding, you can get whatever you want as long as you can pass the test."
Jiang Jiyu rubbed his fingers, left a message for Shen Lian, and walked towards the light gate. He walked through the light gate on the right.
Old Monster Yang did the same.
Shen Lian glanced at the cultivators around him, and also walked towards the light gate on the left.
After stepping into the light gate, the spiritual light in front of him was bright, and a translucent stream of light flowed down from above, gradually turning into the appearance of the fox demon female cultivator outside.
However, this fox demon was only a translucent spirit body.
Well, it was completely bald.
Shen Lian looked around and found that he appeared in an independent space.
The fox demon female cultivator sniffed Shen Lian hard, "Fellow Daoist, what are you going to test?"
"Puppet."
The fox demon nodded, and with a wave of his hand, the space in front of him changed into a spacious and bright cultivation cave, and three huge stone platforms appeared.
On the leftmost stone platform, there was a black water python of the third-order lower grade, with its entire body coiled up in a ball, surrounded by thick water vapor.
On the rightmost stone platform, there was a demon wolf, with an aura of the third-order middle grade, and a strong smell of blood.
It was intact, but it was cut into hundreds of pieces and piled together.
On the middle stone platform, there was a huge leg bone about ten feet long, with some fur not peeled off, emitting a strong smell of blood and brutality, and the aura was surprisingly at the third-order upper grade.
Three beams of light fell from above, just falling on the three demon beasts on the stone platform, allowing Shen Lian to see the whole picture of the things on the stone platform more clearly.
He could see that the demon beast that seemed to be emitting a strong aura was not actually real, but a light and shadow effect cast by some means.
The fox demon circled around Shen Lian like a small fish, and finally nodded and flew to the middle stone platform.
"Daoyou, please look."
The little fox demon snapped his fingers.
The beam of light cast on the beam was rippled with light, and the various colors in the ripples rolled and gathered, each forming the image of a spiritual object.
"The third-level lower-grade Thunder Treasure Tianyuan Ape Thunder Plate, made with the core skull of the third-level early peak Thunder Bone Demon Ape, supplemented by several five-element thunder stones, was made by the third-level third-level upper-grade weapon refining master Lan Yang Zhenren of the human race."
Shen Lian looked at the thunder plate flashing with lightning and embedded with colorful borders. It was indeed made by a master, but it was a little worse than his.
Master Lan Yang, he had seen it when he was outside the hall just now.
At this time, the little fox demon jumped onto the platform on the far right and pointed to the spiritual image.
"A bottle of third-level middle-grade Tianlei Zhenye, taken from the thunderstorm area of the third-level Yuantian."
There is a saying in the world of cultivation that there are three Yuantian. The lowest heaven is naturally the place where cultivators can see when they look up. This is the first Yuantian, which is 48,000 feet high.
The second level of the Yuan Heaven is ninety-six thousand feet high, and the height of the third level of the Yuan Heaven is unknown.
The third Yuan Tian, ninety-six thousand feet into the sky, is full of dangers. Even if a Nascent Soul cultivator is not careful, he will encounter terrifying celestial phenomena, let alone enter it to collect resources.
"The corpse of the third-level Dzogchen Tianyuan Thunder Ape. This ape broke through the fourth level and fell under the catastrophe. It was preserved by the Great Demon King with special methods. Its skin, hair, bones, and spiritual power are all preserved, and it also contains a celestial calamity. Ray’s true meaning.”
Hearing the little fox demon's introduction, Shen Lian thought of the puppet master in the hall just now.
If you want to ask what is the sharpest method in the world of immortality, these three treasures are right in front of you.
Straight to the soul.
Want it?
Shen Lian specified that he wanted it.
Each kind of treasure corresponds to the puppet of the corresponding level, clearly reminding you, so you can show your true skills if you want.
The third-level low-grade thunder treasure is useless to Shen Lian. The middle-grade thunder liquid is good, but it is not very useful.
But the third-level Dzogchen Tianyuan Thunder Ape Corpse was lost during the Yuanying Heavenly Tribulation. It is full of treasures.
No wonder the little fox just circled around him and sniffed him. His emotions were based on watching others order food.
The aura of the third-level high-grade puppet master outside was the earth element's magic power, and what he was sighing about was a third-level perfect golden-patterned ape with a full back.
This ape is a demonic beast with dual attributes of earth and metal.
Canglan Demon King is not a human, but he understands human nature.
I believe other monks have also encountered his situation.
No wonder it attracts so many golden elixir monks. Some people come here more than once, with their treasures hanging on them. This is no different from hanging a carrot in front of a donkey.
Canglan Demon King really knows how to do it.
"Is there any demon blood left in this Tianyuan Thunder Ape corpse?"
Shen Lian pointed at the light and shadow of Thunder Ape.
"Of course there is. The true meaning of Tianlei exists in the precious blood of Thunder Ape."
The little fox demon smiled brightly and blinked with big watery eyes, as if telling Shen Lian, I know what you were thinking just now.
Yes, it's what you think.
Want it.
The third-level Dzogchen thunder-attribute precious blood also contains a trace of the true meaning of heavenly thunder. Whether it is used to draw talismans or to refine the body, it is a dream for Shen Lian.
The key is that after draining the blood, it has no effect on the demon corpse and can still be made into a third-level Great Perfection puppet.
Damn it, Demon King Canglan was definitely tempting him.
"Fellow Taoist, I'm not trying to tempt you."
"I'm just telling you that this monster ape corpse fell under the fifth thunder tribulation. The monster body has actually undergone changes, and it can almost be called a quasi-fourth level."
"In addition, the true meaning of Heavenly Thunder sealed in Thunder Blood is many times stronger than any True Heavenly Thunder Liquid."
