In the chaotic cloud sky, a black shadow exceeding ten thousand feet broke away from the wind and clouds, roaring loudly, and came like a bloody mouth bite from the abyss.
Xu Zhuang's eyes flashed with divine light, and in an instant, he saw clearly what was coming.
What was biting towards Duxu Palace was actually a terrifying snake head with eyes as red as candles and teeth like flying swords.
Looking along the snake's head, one can see the body of a huge beast with scales like precious armor. The most rigid and fierce lines snake over ten thousand feet and disappear into the clouds. What's even more bizarre is that this beast actually has four more... heads, either looking up to the sky and screaming, or looking violently, or attacking together...
A large, menacing five-headed snake in the surging clouds froze for an instant under Xu Zhuang's eyes, forming a picture that seemed to return to the ancient wilderness.
"This is..." A strange color flashed in Xu Zhuang's eyes. He was considered to be knowledgeable about the past and present, but just by looking at it, the origin of this beast already appeared in his mind.
An ancient ferocious beast descended from heaven, winding and legless, with nine heads and a length that could coil around a thousand people. It had the power to swallow up the sun and the moon, destroy the heaven and the earth...
Although the beast in front of me only has five heads, and its body is far from the size of the entangled beast, its appearance and ferociousness are almost the same as those recorded in the Taoist book.
Such ancient ferocious beasts have even lost their names. In the Taoist books that Xu Zhuang read, a talisman with many meanings is used to call this thing. It is not clear what its true nature is.
Xu Zhuang originally thought that this beast only existed in records, but he did not expect that it would be seen in the Eighteen-layered Que today.
…
The passage of time, after all, will not really happen because Xu Zhuang's Dharma eyes are frozen. In an instant, the five-headed snake has been biting on the Duxu Palace. In an instant, precious light shines out, and numerous formations appear, blocking the bite of the big snake.
In Duxu Palace, Xu Zhuang felt the slight tremor in the palace and couldn't help but raise his brows.
Although the level of the Duxu Palace is not high, none of the formations and restrictions are second to none. With the support of Xu Zhuang's magical power, its defensive ability may not be inferior to any magic weapon.
The five-headed serpent can shake the body of the temple, which shows its great power. Obviously, although this beast does not have the legendary power, it is not an illusion. I am afraid that it will be very difficult for ordinary Yuanshen to bump into this beast.
However, Xuzhuang's cultivation has reached the current state, which is not something that can be summarized in one sentence.
"Although this beast is rare, it can't be considered as 'never existing in the world'. Could it be left behind by the Innate Demon Sect?"
Thoughts raced through Xu Zhuang's mind. As far as he knew, this beast was born with turbid energy. In today's era, there is no environment for it to grow up, but if the Innate Demon Sect can find it, And if you cultivate it regardless of the cost, it is indeed possible to grow.
However, Xu Zhuang vaguely felt that this was not the case. Although the Xiantian Demon Sect had a profound foundation, it had been suppressed by Xuanmen for many years and spent a huge price to cultivate a ferocious beast that was equivalent to the real Yuanshen... It does not mean that the Pearl Sparrow was at least used to prevent It would be too unwise for him to Xu Zhuang.
"Then, could it be the original living beings in the Nine Heavens?"
Xu Zhuang's eyes showed he was thinking, and he pointed at the secret point. The Taiyi Rainbow Light Sword immediately turned into a shocking rainbow, flew out, from bottom to top, and instantly cut the upper jaw of the giant snake head into two halves!
"Oh?" Although the sword was effective, the effect was actually far less than Xu Zhuang expected. Considering what kind of swordsmanship he had, there were probably not many things in the world that he could cut with one strike. He actually only split half of this beast's head. It can be seen that Not only is his strength immense, his body is also strong beyond imagination.
"Roar!--"
One of the beasts was seriously injured, and it started twisting like crazy. The other four roared in unison, followed by a bloody mouth, and suddenly it was filled with turbid fire, black wind, dark thunder...all kinds of powerful supernatural powers. Brewed from within.
Xu Zhuang was not surprised. The Taoist book records that each time this beast grows a head, it will have different magical powers. Otherwise, how can it be said to be so powerful that it can destroy the heaven and the earth? but……
"After all, it's just a ferocious beast."
Although it was only a brief confrontation, Xu Zhuang had already discovered that this ancient ferocious beast had no intelligence at all.
Without wisdom, no matter how tyrannical power is, it is nothing in the eyes of Taoist masters. Even if there is no choice, it is not difficult to retreat calmly, not to mention that Xu Zhuang may not really take this 'mere' magical power in his eyes.
Xu Zhuang was sitting in Duxu Palace, with Qingyun appearing above him, silently operating the Taoism.
In the next moment, Xiantian Taisu rolled out with a powerful force and flew out of the palace. He turned into a big hand holding up the sky and caught it. He immediately grabbed the beast tightly and let it shake the sky and the earth. , it was hard to resist at all, and in the blink of an eye, the thunder in the mouth exploded with a muffled sound, and it seemed that the power of resistance was lost in an instant.
At the same time, he had already used all his methods, and the Taiyi Rainbow Light Sword flew away. In mid-air, it suddenly swayed a few times, and turned into thousands of sword lights, gathering like a galaxy, carrying the sound of thunder, and killing the general. , beheaded until blood and flesh flew everywhere, let alone talking about magical powers.
On the other two sides, there was even more earthly divine light, and invisible thunderbolts exploded...
In just a moment, Xu Zhuang had severely injured five heads of this ferocious beast at the same time.
It has to be said that this kind of ancient ferocious beast is indeed unparalleled. With Xu Zhuang's current magical power, with such a blow, even the real Yuanshen was killed, but this beast was only seriously injured, and it only took an instant. There has been some signs of recovery, and the vitality is evident.
However, Xu Zhuang did not give it a chance to breathe, and withdrew his magical power. Suddenly, the divine feathers were displayed behind his back, and the five lights circulated and stopped in the color of water. Immediately, the water-moving divine light rushed out like a great tide, and the vast water was just a roll in the side. This huge beast tens of thousands of feet was rolled in.
This beast was already on the verge of death, but fell into the water-moving divine light, and there was no possibility of causing any trouble. In a short time, it had been somewhat refined.
"Sure enough..." Xu Zhuang looked thoughtful.
He guessed that this beast was the original creature of the ninth heaven, but in fact, although the ninth heaven was a scene of chaotic clouds and sky, it was not an environment filled with turbid air, and it definitely could not breed or grow. Become such a ferocious beast.
Unless the spiritual beings contained in the ninth heaven can create or give this ferocious beast the conditions to grow!
Sure enough, with the refining of the Five Elements Divine Light, Xu Zhuang soon discovered some abnormal energy within himself.
These qi forces were extremely weak, but they still could not escape Xu Zhuang's eyes. He brought the magic formula and whispered it in his mouth. Soon, strands of radiance gathered in his palm. Although it did not take shape in the end, it was already there. Enough for Xu Zhuang to cast a spell.
He used the method of searching for traces, quickly traced back to the source, found the direction, and felt certain in his heart.
"If there is no trace to be found like before, I don't know how much time it will take to get it. But now that I have found the clue, it is better to try to get this thing first, and then pursue it in a higher heaven."
He did not notice the existence of alien energy in the cloud sky. It can be concluded that this spiritual object that can support the growth of ancient ferocious beasts must not be an existence like the immortal energy. As for what it is, he needs to see it. Know.
Xu Zhuang expected to find and take a look at this thing without wasting time. He immediately stopped hesitating and ran away quickly looking for a way to find traces.
It has to be said that this has reached the ninth level, and it is still so vast. Xu Zhuang drove Duxu Palace to fly for a long time, but he still didn't find the boundary. On the contrary, he found many signs of living creatures along the way, and they were all vicious birds. Alien beasts, although they are not those ancient ferocious beasts that are almost mythical, are still extraordinary.
However, perhaps because he killed the five-headed big snake and was contaminated by its aura, these ferocious birds and beasts did not dare to approach Xu Zhuang. He was content with peace and quiet, and the journey went smoothly. I don’t know how long it took, but something suddenly broke into his consciousness. among.
Xu Zhuang's heart moved and he drove Duxu Palace to fly away. Not long after, he saw a piece of pure white light entering his field of vision.
"This is this?" Xu Zhuang's eyes were startled, and he was instantly attracted to it. He saw in front of him a giant tree with three tree trunks winding, circling, relying on each other, and growing together, rooted in the void.
This wood is as pure as jade in color, with sparse branches and leaves, and the jade leaves seem to be flowing, hanging down like moonlight. It is so magnificent and beautiful that it is difficult to describe it in words.
What surprised Xu Zhuang even more was that the energy of this wood was simply...
"Innate spiritual roots?" Xu Zhuang felt a trace of disbelief in his heart, "Is this the 'spiritual object' of the ninth heaven? Are those who have the fruits of heaven and man really created in this way, and can even create innate spiritual roots?"
However, every innate spiritual root in this world is indeed unique...
Xu Zhuang's thoughts changed rapidly, and he drove Duxu Palace to quickly approach the spiritual roots. Feeling the Qi that seemed to be transcendent, descended from heaven, and formed its own laws, he became more and more confident.
"I don't know what's so magical about this spiritual root?" Xu Zhuang emerged from Duxu Palace in light, came to the spiritual root, and gently stroked it away.
There is no doubt that this spiritual root is the five-headed serpent, and even the reason why all the ferocious birds and beasts in this area can grow, but the exact reason is not yet known...
Xu Zhuang tried to use his Yuan consciousness to feel the scenes of history that this spiritual root had experienced. He did not get an answer, but he solved another doubt.
This spiritual root, or the ninth level, is always moving. Those ferocious birds and beasts that do not have wisdom and do not have access to the Dharma, once they leave this spiritual root, they will not be able to stay here unless they have no way to find them at all. There is no benefit at all.
Therefore, only when the spiritual root 'bears fruit' and the energy escapes, those ferocious birds and strange beasts will come. This is why this innate spiritual root, which is even called a mother tree in this world, has no strange beasts. The reason for being there to protect you.
This saved Xu Zhuang a lot of trouble, otherwise he would have to go through a lot of trouble if he wanted to collect this spiritual root.
Xu Zhuang stared at the tree and pondered. No matter how magical it is, there is no doubt that the innate spiritual root is precious. Now that he has arrived here, there is no reason why it is impossible to obtain it.
It's just moving the innate spiritual roots. After all, it's not about collecting ordinary spiritual roots. If it's not handled properly, it may not be possible to collect it, but instead it will destroy the tree.
Xu Zhuang thought for a long time, and finally shook his shoulders, and the five elements of divine light rose from behind. Soon it reached a height of thousands of feet, unfolded like a sky curtain, and pocketed the innate spiritual roots.
The five elements are in harmony, everything is in it, and the innate spiritual roots are also in the five elements. They can naturally be collected, and if they fall into the divine light of the five elements, Xu Zhuang can also supply the essence of the five elements continuously, which may be able to maintain the life of this spiritual root. , so that it will not wither.
This is also the most appropriate method that Xu Zhuang can think of, but in this way, it will only continue to consume the five elements of mana. Now that the spiritual root has been collected, one must be cautious when using the five elements of divine light.
Especially when it comes to fighting with others, unless it is absolutely necessary, Xu Zhuang can only regard it as missing such a magical power. In the current situation, it cannot be called meaningless.
You must know that although Xu Zhuang has vast magical powers and endless changes, the Five Elements Yuanji Divine Light is still one of the means he relies on most.
However, having made his choice, Xu Zhuang naturally did not look forward or backward. He put his innate spiritual roots into it, felt it for a while, and then accepted the divine light after knowing that it was safe and sound.
Xu Zhuang obtained an innate spiritual root with almost no effort. Xu Zhuang said that his trip was worthwhile. However, he would not stop there. He returned to Duxu Palace and without stopping at all, he activated the formation and escaped. From here, go straight to Tianmen again.
…
——
Eighteen levels of palaces and eighteen levels of heaven, almost all have different scenes.
A certain sky is also a sky of clouds, but although there is no sky, there are countless islands in the sky, like stars hanging, the big ones are like continents, with thousands of ravines and ravines on them, and the mountains are overlapping, and the small ones are like flying peaks. Misty clouds, gurgling streams, and waterfalls...
Obviously compared to many empty heavens, this world is more like a perfect small world.
It's just that in such a complicated terrain, where to find the 'spiritual objects' seems to be a problem.
…
On a continent, with continuous mountains and majestic peaks, there is a strange stone protruding across the sky, like a hanging port.
I don't know when, Ye Xuanzhang has arrived here, standing on the strange rocks, looking up at the heavenly gate towering in the clouds, his face seems to be dark.
Suddenly, there was a sudden sound behind his ears, asking: "You haven't escaped from that blow yet?"
Ye Xuanzhang just shook his head slowly, seemed to ponder for a moment, and then sighed: "It's wonderful..."
I don’t know what kind of emotion he contained in his voice, but he was just thinking about the earth-shattering Xiantian Taisu Yiqi big capture, and thinking about this person’s record of killing the two real souls of the Hades Sect in the sky, and his face couldn’t help but become gloomy again. a bit.
"Dao Miao is indeed worthy of praise." The voice said: "But... in this era of turmoil, the emergence of any kind of characters is beyond imagination."
"In the past..." At this point, the voice seemed to be smiling: "In the past, when the Six-Eyed Master had perfected his Yang Zhen, he dared to challenge the masters who had survived the three great tribulations. How majestic and arrogant he was? "
"It's not like we're reduced to the point where we're either dead or alive."
"..." Ye Xuanzhang was choked up for a moment. Although he knew the meaning behind his words, as a member of the Demon Sect, there was no way he could use the Six-Eyed Demon Lord as a warning to overturn the situation.
What's more, the Six-Eyed Demon Lord has reversed the yin and yang and reversed the calamity of death. Instead, he used this to survive the three major calamities and embark on the path of becoming an immortal.
Ye Xuanzhang shook his head and said no more, but the sound was silent again.
