The devil's ferocious flames surged into the sky, taking just a few breaths to kill several people one after another.
Seeing that its aura surged and it was about to return to the late stage of pill formation, Lu Zhong, in order to avoid long nights and nightmares, prepared to take action without reservation of strength and kill this demon.
But at this moment, he noticed a sword energy coming from behind him.
"Ha!" Lu Zhong sneered.
There was actually someone who wanted to sneak attack on him.
In this case, I’ll help you!
Lu Zhong no longer restrained his aura, and spiritual pressure at the level of Yuanying True Lord suddenly appeared, covering the entire place in an instant. Only then did the monks in the field realize that an old monster had actually been mixed into the crowd.
At this moment, Chanxu's expression was very exciting.
Shocked with regret and full of disbelief.
He never would have thought that the person he was about to attack unexpectedly was an old Nascent Soul monster.
"Senior, I——"
Unfortunately, before Chanxu could finish speaking, a series of mirror lights came in densely. Under the horrified gazes of everyone, they easily defeated the body-protecting aura and then penetrated straight through his body.
Just one face-to-face meeting will make you dead.
Taking a storage bag into his hand, Lu Zhong ignored the other monks and turned his attention to the demon. In just a few breaths, the demon had already broken through to the late stage of pill formation.
Seeing Lu Zhong looking at him, not only did he not have the slightest fear, but he let out roars of filial piety, and fierce flames ignited in his eyes. After a low roar, he turned into a blood shadow, and his figure suddenly surged to a hundred feet, turning into a giant flaming beast. , spitting flames from his mouth and ran towards him roaring with filial piety.
Wherever he passed, the ground was covered with flames.
He suddenly rushed out of a red lotus road.
Seeing this scene, Lu Zhong's expression did not change at all. He had crossed a huge realm. The difference in strength could be said to be a huge chasm, and there was almost no way to overcome it.
If he wants to solve this demon, it is as simple as eating and drinking water.
Writing casually, a small flag flew out of his sleeve.
It's a dragon flag with a human face!
Soon, a small red dragon rushed out and opened its mouth to inhale the flames set by the devil. The torrential flames turned into lines of fire and fell into the mouth of the dragon one after another.
No matter how many there are, they are all absorbed by the human-faced dragon.
As soon as the giant beast transformed by the devil saw it, he didn't know that he had met his nemesis. The fierce flames on his body instantly stopped, and he hurriedly stopped, splashing a lot of earth and rocks with his two claws, and his body jumped into a cloud of fire. He rose into the air in two strokes, obviously trying to escape.
At the same time, the fire on his body flashed and he shot out hundreds of fireballs.
"Humph, you still want to delay?" Lu Zhong snorted coldly.
Seeing that this demon was no more than that, he decided to send it on its way.
First, he raised a dragon flag to absorb all the incoming fireballs, then threw his left hand forward, and the thunder gun that had been brewing for a long time was shot out, turning into a thin silver line, and hit the fleeing demon in an instant.
"Boom!" There was a dull explosion.
A ball of thunder exploded, destroying everything within the surrounding area, leaving no trace of the demon inside.
With a "ding" sound, a piece of burnt black metal fell to the ground.
Lu Zhong took the photo in his hand, and after seeing its appearance clearly, he suddenly couldn't laugh or cry, "I didn't expect that the Divine Witch Token was actually hidden in the body of the demon, and I destroyed it..."
Fortunately, the destroyed Divine Witch Order was just the lowest Wuyang Order.
However, this also made him understand that the Divine Witch Token hidden in the stone palace was most likely randomly placed. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why he only got a Wuyang Divine Wizard Token after killing a fourth-level demon.
Why would the witch cultivator do this?
Lu Zhong had a guess, but he was not sure about it.
"We still need to collect more information..."
He took a deep breath, turned around and came to the stone palace where the red and white light disappeared. There was nothing in the huge space. It seemed that it was just a prison where the demons were held.
Seeing this, Lu Zhong didn't stay any longer.
…
Hidden in the heavy fog, in front of a majestic stone palace, a middle-aged Taoist with dark eyes stood with his hands behind his back. At this moment, he looked at the restrictions surrounding the stone palace with a look of deep thought on his face.
There were three figures standing behind him, all of whom were at the Nascent Soul stage.
Looking deep into the hall, faintly visible arrays of precious light could be seen. This was a treasure refining place used by witch cultivators in the past. It is obviously an incredible treasure that it has survived to this day after a long period of refinement.
"Why, senior brother, can't you untie it?" Nanyin took a step forward and couldn't help but ask.
"I'm not sure, I only have a number of five or five." Nan Cang relied on his proficiency in formations and could easily set up a fourth-level formation. However, facing these ancient restrictions, he still felt a headache.
It's not that it can't be broken open by force.
But once you do this, the treasure inside will no longer exist.
In this case, it is equivalent to wasting the effort.
At this time, Nan Cang turned around and looked back intently.
He saw several Nascent Soul cultivators suspended in mid-air a thousand feet away behind him.
The leader was a skinny old man wearing dark red robes with a gloomy face. There were sparks condensed around his body, and he faintly exuded a strong twilight aura.
After taking in this scene, Nan Cang laughed lightly and said: "It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Zhu Yuan, Fellow Daoist Huo Yaozi from the Eternal Life Palace, and these three... I think they must be Fellow Daoist Wan Mu and Qingding from Changchun Valley. , and fellow Daoist Huo Longzi from the Xuanyang Sect. I wonder if five of them are here, but they want to decide the winner in advance?"
"Nan Cang, if I really take action, do you dare to take it?" Zhu Yuan stroked his beard and sneered.
The two have been rivals for hundreds of years, and he knows a lot about Nan Cang. Naturally, I understand that this person's way of doing things is always to make decisions and never do anything that is uncertain.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this that Nan Cang was able to rise from being a Taoist boy with the qualifications of the Three Spiritual Roots without any identity background, and became a mid-stage Nascent Soul monk. And according to the current trend, he might even become a great monk. It is possible to have a look.
"Hahaha, fellow Taoist Zhu Yuan is joking. Am I, Nan Cang, the kind of villain who avoids fighting? However, if you really want to take action, then I will definitely avoid fighting. After all, fellow Taoist Zhu Yuan's Zhu Yuan Fan , I'm very worried!" Nan Cang said openly without any shame.
Zhu Yuan twitched his beard after hearing this.
He didn't play tricks with Nan Cang, he still had important things to do, and the conflict with the Taoist sect would be settled later. He raised his hand gently and left with Huo Yaozi and others.
Looking at the five figures leaving, Nan Cang's expression suddenly darkened. He turned around and glanced at the stone palace, thought for a while and decided to keep it for now. Just like Zhu Yuan and his party, he also has important things to do here. The task comes from the Gui Miao Sect, and the Yongsheng Palace cannot disobey it.
…
"Is this Jade Dragon Grass?"
Looking at the strange-looking spiritual herb in his hand, Lu Zhong didn't see that it had anything to do with the Jade Dragon, but since it was a thousand-year-old elixir, he naturally had no reason to let it go.
He turned his head and glanced behind him, and there was a mountain monster lying there.
The origin of the monster is unknown. Judging from its failure to leave a name in the classics, it is obvious that it is weak. Although it is a fourth-level strength, it cannot last a hundred breaths under his hands.
After collecting the valuable parts, Lu Zhong continued to rush to the next place.
The outer hall of Wanwu Temple can be described as "gold everywhere".
For the sake of his future, he decided to collect more elixirs.
It is not easy to increase your cultivation level, and it is even more so when you reach the Nascent Soul stage. Without elixirs, just by absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the speed of progress can be simply disappointing.
Now that we have a rare opportunity, why should we miss it casually?
Soon after, he came to a huge red peak.
This peak is about a thousand feet high, like a torch reaching into the sky, and its entire body is shrouded in fire clouds. Compared with the surrounding lush jungle, it is particularly eye-catching.
This is Lu Zhong's next goal.
"Hey, someone is here."
Lu Zhong let out a light sigh at this time and suddenly moved his gaze to the southwest, where two escaping lights flew side by side. One of them was slightly familiar, obviously an old friend of his.
"Qingding"
Realizing the identity of the visitor, Lu Zhong disappeared and at the same time controlled his aura to the extreme.
After a while, two escaping lights landed.
Only then did Lu Zhong realize that the Yuanying monk accompanying Qingding was Huo Longzi of the Xuanyang Sect. I couldn't help but think to myself: "Strange, what is the purpose of these two appearing here?"
To avoid being discovered, he averted his eyes from the two of them.
The Nascent Soul cultivator has an astonishing spiritual sense, and no matter how cautious he is, he cannot be too cautious.
"Fellow Taoist Huo Longzi, according to the news from the elders in the valley, there is a Fire Flower Lotus hidden in the mountain in front that fellow Taoist needs. As I said before, there is a Seven Ultimate Fire Scorpion protecting the lotus. It is said that this beast is not weak, are you sure there is a way to deal with it, fellow Taoist?"
Qingding walked in front, transmitting messages to Huo Longzi as he walked.
"The real Qijue Fire Scorpion is a vicious beast once it reaches the fourth level. Its strength is comparable to that of a Nascent Soul monk. Naturally, I cannot solve it. But if the news from fellow Taoist is true, then the monster hiding in the mountain is most likely just a Wujue. Fire Scorpion, if that’s the case, it won’t be difficult to solve.”
"That is to say, okay!" Qingding heard the words and immediately understood what Huo Longzi meant, and then led the other party into a stone crevice in front of him.
Seeing the two of them walking into the stone crevice, Lu Zhong revealed his figure.
Regarding the conversation between the two, he listened clearly using the gray fog space, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought as to whether he should continue to follow up.
"That's all, let's go take a look." Lu Zhong thought to himself.
The two people in front were still talking while walking.
"...At present, the evil intrusion in southern Xinjiang is becoming increasingly fierce. Once the Great Wall of Spiritual Qi is breached by the dry tide, we Southern Barbarian monks will have no home and will not be able to return. Under this situation, these so-called Shangzong monks only care about completing their own mission, regardless of us, is really chilling. Fellow Taoist Qingding, it seems that you and I have a ten thousand-year friendship, so you might as well give it to a certain family. What will happen to the Immortal Palace’s visit to the Ten Thousand Witches Palace this time? For what purpose?"
After hearing this, Qingding hesitated and said nothing.
After a long while, he was ready to speak.
But at this moment, a sudden change occurred!
A pillar of fire overflowed from the crack in the rock and engulfed the two of them in an instant. Almost at the same time, a fiery red figure rushed in front of the two of them, but it was a colorful and huge scorpion. It waved its scorpion claws as big as a house and grabbed them. The necks of Huolongzi and Qingding.
There can be no doubt about it.
If they caught it this time, both of them would be killed immediately.
"The five-color scorpion tail is indeed the Five Ultimate Fire Scorpion!" Huo Longzi reminded Qingding, but it was not out of kindness, but because he was afraid that the other party would mistakenly think it was the Seven Ultimate Fire Scorpion, so he avoided the fight.
The so-called Five Absolutes actually refer to the five fire poisons possessed by this scorpion.
Because of its strong toxicity, people often avoid it.
But Huo Longzi did not retreat but advanced. He raised his hand and offered up a glass cover. This was his natal magic weapon "Fire Dragon Cover". It was made of the essence of the fire dragon as the main material, and several rare spiritual materials on the left. It took Yanghuo Crater a hundred years to finally refine a magic weapon.
All items covered by the fire dragon cover will be attacked by flames.
Even if the Nascent Soul cultivator is trapped, as long as he cannot escape, he will end up turning into ashes.
Watching the two of them fight with the Five Ultimate Fire Scorpions, causing the cave to collapse in a few blows, Lu Zhong suddenly had an idea and realized that this was a good opportunity to fish in troubled waters. Now Huo Longzi, Qing Ding, and the Fire Scorpion's attention are all on both sides.
He could take advantage of this opportunity to pick the Fire Flower Lotus.
After thinking about it, Lu Zhong felt that doing so would be a bit petty. Also, the dignified Nascent Soul Lord does not want to think about the upright victory, but thinks about sneaky things.
"But this is my way of survival!"
In fact, if you change the word "stealing", it will suddenly become more atmospheric.
"When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman gets the benefit."
Soon, Lu Zhong bypassed the battlefield and came to a lava lake. He looked towards the center of the lake and saw a large flaming red lotus leaf growing there. Among them, there was a flaming red lotus that was shining brightly and emitting an astonishing amount of water. The aura is quite astonishing.
As expected, this should be the "Fire Flower Lotus" mentioned by Qing Ding.
When he saw the target, Lu Zhong was not careless.
With the help of the gray fog space, he checked carefully and soon made a surprising discovery. There was actually a fire scorpion hidden under the seemingly calm lava lake. Judging from its seven-color scorpion tail, this scorpion was obviously a fire scorpion. The legendary "Seven Ultimate Fire Scorpions".
Lu Zhong's heart was in turmoil.
so close!
If he acted rashly, he might have fallen into the scorpion's mouth at this moment.
"No, it seems to be sleeping!" Lu Zhong made a new discovery at this time.
After repeated confirmation, he found that the Seven Ultimate Fire Scorpions were indeed in deep sleep for some unknown reason. It is estimated that as long as there is no big movement, he will not wake up.
"It's an opportunity..."
After thinking for a moment, Lu Zhong released an avatar.
It's just picking the fire flower lotus. There is no need for the main body to do it personally. Whether the Qi Jue Fire Scorpion is really sleeping or creating the illusion of sleeping, it is always right to send the incarnation to test it.
The incarnation operation went surprisingly smoothly.
Soon, a fiery red lotus fell into Lu Zhong's hands.
"Another treasure! Hahaha, I really did come right this time..." His heart was filled with joy, but he quickly suppressed his excitement.
Now that we are still in a dangerous place, we need to be alert to our surroundings at all times.
On the other side, Huo Longzi used the fire dragon shield to finally suppress the Five Ultimate Fire Scorpions. Although this suppression could only last for a short period of time, it was enough to obtain the Fire Flower Lotus he dreamed of.
I hurried to the lava lake and looked at the obvious empty space in the center of the lotus pond.
Huo Longzi was startled.
