These two search results all record things about the big snake in the lake. One explains its current identity, and the other explains its origin.
However, neither of the two files contained much information, only a few lines.
"Ni Yang, an ancient water-based divine beast, has guarded Tianyuan Mountain for thousands of years. His disciples have made him a saint."
This is the first recorded information and contains only a few lines.
Zhang Xiaoman checked it out and found that it came from a book called "Minutes of the Tianyuan Sect".
This book mostly contains some things that outer disciples need to pay attention to after joining the Tianyuan Sect, as well as the building divisions and functions within the sect, etc. It is equivalent to the modern rules for newcomers.
"It turns out that it's called Niyang, and it's really the mountain-protecting beast of the Tianyuan Sect... and it's actually an ancient water-type beast that has been guarding the formation for thousands of years... His name and age make him look very powerful. …”
Zhang Xiaoman nodded secretly, having already learned some information from it.
It seemed that the big snake did not lie to him. It was indeed the spiritual beast of this sect. As the leader, he seemed to be able to consider releasing it.
Although the opponent is very weak now, as long as you give it time to recover, you will have another powerful fighting force by then, perhaps no less than the Holy Angel Naifaya.
With this thought in mind, he started to look at the next file.
The content of this file seemed to be a little more than the previous one, but Zhang Xiaoman's face suddenly turned ugly after taking a first look at it.
I saw it written above:
"Ni Yang, one of the five demon kings in ancient times, was withdrawn, good at eating evil, and cannibalized countless people. He once lived in the fairyland of the Biluo Tianhe River, where immortals could not cross, and the sun and moon had no light. Three thousand five hundred years ago, he and the other four demon kings Join forces to break through the Immortal Palace, swallow the Beast God Pill in the Immortal Emperor's treasure house, and slaughter countless people..."
"The Houxian Palace instigated the rebellion of four other demon kings, and teamed up to severely injure them. They fell to the mortal world, and were subdued by the True Immortal Tianyuan with great magic power. They were adopted as the guardian beasts of the Tianyuan Sect and guarded the formation for more than a thousand years..."
"Ni Yang can discern good and evil. If an evil person comes close, he will be devoured by him. He also has a weird personality. If future generations come into contact with him, please do not believe everything he says. Only I, Yu Jue, the head of Tianyuan Sect, can suppress him. Remember Remember..."
The content of the second paragraph of information is obviously much greater and more detailed than the first paragraph.
What is introduced here is the origin of Ni Yang, and the information contained in it surprised Zhang Xiaoman.
He quickly checked the name of the book - Tianyuan Sect Secret Code!
"It's not a divine beast at all, but an ancient demon king!"
Zhang Xiaoman felt as if he was breaking out in a cold sweat. The "Minutes of the Tianyuan Sect" were clearly meant to deceive ordinary disciples. The real secret turned out to be here!
He was secretly glad that he had used Star Sequence to search these books. If he had not seen the content in the second book, he might have released the demon king by now.
According to what was said in the Tian Yuan Sect's secret book, Ni Yang was once a being in the immortal world, and his strength must have surpassed the immortal level in this world and is unfathomable.
Although it was later betrayed by several other demon kings, was seriously injured, and experienced the catastrophe of the End of the Dharma for three hundred years, it was already on the verge of death.
But Zhang Xiaoman was still not sure whether he would be able to deal with it if he just released it.
He hesitated in place for a long time, with a very troubled expression on his face.
Just give up like this. Judging from the previous state of the other party, it seems that he can't hold on for long. He just needs to wait for it to disappear.
But in this case, Zhang Xiaoman would lose a powerful combat force with unlimited potential, and he was naturally very reluctant.
But if the opponent is revived, judging from the opponent's strength, when it recovers, it will be difficult for me to control it, just like Naifaya at the beginning.
But what is better than Naifaya is that according to the records in this book, the head jade he holds can suppress it, so there is no need to worry too much about it rebelling.
I'm afraid this is also the reason why Tianyuan Sect can let it guard the formation for thousands of years.
After pondering for a long time, until the sunlight outside began to turn slightly yellow, Zhang Xiaoman gritted his teeth and looked in the direction of Ni Yang.
"I can't control it!"
He finally made a decision.
After some careful consideration, Zhang Xiaoman decided to leave the demon king alone.
I have just discovered this resource-rich world, and countless secrets left by cultivators are waiting for me to develop. There is no need to take risks for that kind of uncontrolled combat power.
He just needs to work steadily here. The Ancient Divine Continent has too many treasures that can be developed. If a big monster comes out that he can't deal with, isn't he looking for trouble?
Although it is mentioned in the secret book that the leader Yujue can suppress the monster.
But Zhang Xiaoman doesn't really believe in these things.
It's not that he doubts that the person who recorded it will deceive him, but in this long catastrophe of the end of the law, not only the cultivation qualifications of living creatures are cut off, but also all the spiritual weapons and magic weapons are affected. The treasures he saw before have lost their function. That's the example.
Therefore, it is hard to say how powerful the leader Yujue can be now. If the formation in it has lost the power to suppress the monsters, then if he releases the opponent, wouldn't he be throwing himself into a trap?
After all these considerations, he decided not to care about the monster anymore and pretended that he had never seen him before. He only needed to safely search for Tianyuan Mountain's resources. He also wanted to use this place as a base to develop in the future.
In the following time, Zhang Xiaoman busily shuttled across the seven main peaks of Tianyuan Mountain and collected a lot of useful materials, among which spirit stones were the most important.
Although these spiritual stones have become dim, they still contain some spiritual energy. He tried it, held it in his palm, and combined it with specific techniques, he could use it to quickly restore his dark energy, or to Used during practice, it can speed up the practice of dark energy.
This is somewhat similar to the Spirit Touching Flower.
In addition, Zhang Xiaoman also found five elder jade tablets in these mountains. It seems that the effect should be similar to the head jade he wears, which is held by the elders of Tianyuan Sect.
However, he searched the entire Tianyuan Sect and only found five pieces in total. The remaining two pieces were buried unknown where.
By the time Zhang Xiaoman had collected everything, another night had passed and it was the next morning.
"Huh~~"
He breathed a sigh of relief. He had not slept for four days in a row and felt a little groggy.
After finding an unoccupied cave, Zhang Xiaoman used a cleaning spell to disperse the dust, summoned two star guards as guards, and then lay down on the jasper bed and fell asleep.
With the blessing of the Morning Star Ring, his own recovery ability is very impressive, so even if he is extremely sleepy, he does not need too long sleep to return to his best condition.
After sleeping for about four hours, Zhang Xiaoman was suddenly awakened by a violent shaking.
When he opened his eyes, the two star guards were still standing guard beside them, but the entire mountain began to undulate violently as if it had been hit by an earthquake.
"Clang!"
The jasper shelf fell to the ground and was smashed to pieces. There was a series of clanking sounds all around, and the cave was in a mess.
Zhang Xiaoman didn't care about anything else and quickly activated the Wind Control Technique and flew out.
When he came outside, he discovered that the entire Tianyuan Sect's mountains were shaking violently, trees were falling, and houses were shattered, making it look like the end was coming.
"not good!"
Zhang Xiaoman was suddenly startled and suddenly thought of a certain possibility. He quickly raised his body and looked at the large turquoise lake in the middle of the mountains.
I saw huge waves rising from the lake, and the water spread out in all directions one after another, hitting the woods on the shore.
A huge black shadow kept twisting in the water droplets, and every time it twisted, it would bring up a series of waves tens of meters high.
"That's it! Niyang!"
Zhang Xiaoman immediately understood what was going on. The big snake was just pretending before, but now it looked so weak that it could lift the entire mountain.
"Crash!!"
The next second, as countless water waves surged, a head the size of a mountain was lifted up from the lake. The water flowed down from its head like a waterfall, slowly revealing its true appearance.
Scales, antlers, beards...
Zhang Xiaoman's eyes widened.
What kind of big snake is this? It’s clearly a dragon! A true Chinese dragon!
"hold head high!"
The blue dragon head let out a thundering cry, the sound was so loud that even Pei Laoliu Dong from Dongyuan Village, a hundred kilometers away, could hear it.
Zhang Xiaoman quickly used dark energy vibration to seal his ears, offsetting the damage caused by the terrifying volume.
Then, I saw the giant dragon shaking the water curtain on its body, raising its head and looking towards the sky.
"Boy, you are very dishonest."
The dragon's mouth opened and closed twice, and the rich male voice from before came out.
"I waited for you under the lake for a whole day, and you just ran away without a trace. Do you know that my favorite thing in my life is to prey on dishonest people like you?"
The voice of the giant dragon was very suitable for its reminder, and the rumble was like thunder, resounding throughout Tianyuan Mountain.
Zhang Xiaoman's face was solemn, and he had already blessed himself with various states on his hands. If the situation changes, he can respond immediately.
"Ni Yang, when did I promise to find the spirit stone for you? You yourself, even though you have the strength, want to trick me into finding the spirit stone for you. You clearly have no good intentions!"
When he spoke, he blessed himself with an amplifying spell so that his voice could spread far away.
However, when compared to the terrifying size of Orochi, the volume increased by this amplifying spell seems a bit insignificant.
The giant dragon narrowed its eyes, as if listening carefully to the words of the little human in the sky, and also seemed to be thinking about whether what he said was the truth.
After a long while, it shook its huge head and squeezed out a few words.
"Really? I forgot."
Zhang Xiaoman's face was filled with dark lines, wondering whether this dragon had Alzheimer's disease or was too thick-skinned. It really overturned his imagination of the dragon clan.
"Let's not talk about this, kid. I am in a good mood now. I will give you another chance to find all the spiritual visions here and throw them into the big formation in the lake. Otherwise, I will eat you in one bite!"
After it finished speaking, it sniffed its nose, as if smelling whether the smell on Dang's body was good or not.
"Hmm... It smells really bad. You don't look like a bad guy... It should taste terrible, but I'm very hungry now, so I don't mind making do with it..."
The guy said and sniffed twice more, but the more he sniffed, the more he couldn't stop.
"Huh? Something's wrong...something's wrong..."
It suddenly began to whisper to itself in a low voice, but this guy was too big, so his small talk could still be clearly heard by Zhang Xiaoman in the sky.
"Why does this kid smell so weird...could it be..."
When it said this, its eyes suddenly widened and it looked towards the jade pendant around Zhang Xiaoman's waist.
"Head Yujue! You are the head of Tianyuan Sect!"
Ni Yang suddenly raised his voice, looking in disbelief.
"Boy, I don't want the spirit stone anymore. I'm going back to sleep. Don't come over and disturb me!"
After saying that, it dived back into the water, leaving Zhang Xiaoman alone in the sky, a little dazed.
"He, he ran away...?"
Zhang Xiaoman looked at the water at his feet, then at the jade pendant around his waist, and then came to his senses. It seemed that this guy was scared away by the jade pendant he was holding.
Although he understood that this Yujue could suppress the Demon King, he never expected that the other party would be so completely intimidated and run away as soon as he met him.
Out of curiosity, Zhang Xiaoman took Yujue in his hand and put dark energy into it to sense it, wanting to find out.
When he got the jade, he just glanced at it with his spiritual mind and didn't pay too much attention to the mystery. He thought it was just a unique formation that allowed him to travel safely through every corner of Tianyuan Sect.
But now after seeing Ni Yang's reaction, he suddenly had a hunch that the leader Yu Jue might not be what he imagined at first. There might be some secrets hidden in it, otherwise the giant dragon wouldn't be able to As for being scared back as soon as we met.
Dark energy mixed with spiritual power penetrates into it. This is what cultivators often call divine thoughts, or it can be called divine consciousness.
Zhang Xiaoman searched around inside it and indeed found an area with formations painted on it, but he couldn't understand the meaning as he didn't understand weapon refining and engraving formations.
Immediately afterwards, he penetrated his consciousness deep into it and explored the inside of the formation.
The formations are very complicated, even a layman like him can feel the subtlety of them.
However, while he was observing, suddenly a blue figure flashed past inside the burst. Zhang Xiaoman felt that it looked familiar, and he quickly chased his spirit to check the situation.
