Time flies by for several days.
Fire soup domain, outside the ancient Minghuo territory.
Lu Zhong was hiding his figure at the moment and looking far ahead.
Thousands of miles away, above the mountains, there was a funnel-shaped multi-colored vortex cloud. A steady stream of spiritual energy was drawn in and poured into a gap in the basin below.
This is the entrance to the Ancient Ming Fire Realm.
Looking around the secret realm, we can see that the area near the entrance of the secret realm is crowded with resentful beasts of various shapes.
Roaring sounds were made from time to time, making the place extremely noisy.
After secretly observing here for several days, Lu Zhong already knew the pattern of activities of the group of resentful beasts.
In terms of apparent strength, due to the large number of resentful beasts here, and the fact that there are several resentful beasts whose strength is comparable to those in the early stage of Void Refining, it is already beyond the reach of ordinary Void Refining monks.
However, it was not difficult for him.
The key is that the situation in the Ancient Ming Fire Realm is unknown.
The group of resentful beasts outside the secret realm now, every one of them, all come from this secret realm. At this moment, there are still a steady stream of resentful beasts pouring out of the Ancient Ming Fire Realm, making people wonder whether it has become a nest of resentful beasts.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Zhong decided to send his avatar to investigate.
There is no such thing as a way to deal with resentful beasts.
Regarding the origin of the Resentful Beast, there is still no clear conclusion in the Fengyuan world, but one thing is the consensus of the monks, that is, the Resentful Beast has no wisdom at all, and will only mindlessly destroy everything it sees.
After a while, a figure disappeared and quietly moved towards the entrance of the secret realm.
Lu Zhong, on the other hand, waited quietly.
During this period, the group of resentful beasts dispersed into small groups several times, heading in all directions. However, the total number has not decreased but increased, and the resentful beasts are still emerging from the Ancient Ming Fire Realm.
"According to the information, there are a large number of monsters entrenched in the ancient Minghuo Realm. Now there are a large number of resentful beasts pouring out, which means that when the sky split, there was also a crack in it, which led to the current situation."
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but wonder what exactly caused the change in the sky.
Not long after, the avatar successfully entered the secret realm.
Like other places where resentful beasts are rampant, the ancient Ming Fire Realm that was full of vitality in the data has now become a deserted and dark place. The Gu Ming Volcano located in the center of the secret realm is erupting with strange red light, and there is a steady stream of energy. Resentful beasts emerged from the crater, then gathered into a herd and rushed towards the exit of the secret realm.
"On the surface, the situation is not too difficult."
According to Lu Zhong's estimate, based on the scene he just saw after his transformation, any Void Refining cultivator would be able to deal with the resentful beast entrenched inside, even if he had no need to take action.
"I'm afraid there is some key hidden in it."
Suddenly, Lu Zhong's expression changed.
It wasn't that something happened on the other side of the avatar, but three figures came over to his left hand.
"They are all in the early stage of virtual refining..."
Lu Zhong sensed the cultivation level of the incoming person and thought to himself that he was not going to show up directly, but was going to hide himself to see what this group of people was planning when they came here.
A monk can't afford to go early if he has no profit, and I think this group of people will not be an exception.
Soon, the wind brought the sound of their conversation.
"Old Monster Wuyou, are you sure that there really is that thing in the Ancient Minghuo Realm?" A female cultivator in a green dress, with hair the color of emerald and extremely scarlet eyes, said hesitantly to a strong old man.
When the old man known as "Wouyou Old Monster" heard this, he said firmly: "Yes, the Yakumo Cup is definitely inside. I saw this thing with my own eyes eight hundred years ago. However, At that time, there was an evil dragon of late sixth level with astonishing strength guarding this elixir."
Recalling the strength of the skull dragon.
Even though time has passed, Old Monster Wuyou still couldn't help but tremble in his heart. Almost subconsciously, he touched a scar on his chest.
With the ability of the Void Refining Monk, it is easy to repair scars.
The reason why he kept it was to give himself a reminder.
Seeing the old monster Wuyou like this, the last person in the team, a young man wearing short-game brocade clothes, smiled confidently and said loudly: "The bone dragon, such a strange species from the world, is indeed very powerful. However, I am waiting for this trip. It came prepared, and with the 'Three Pillar Locking Dragon Formation' here, it will never be able to overturn the sky."
The three-pillar locking dragon formation is one of the famous secret formations in Miaohua Mountain.
The young man's name was Gongsun Yan, and he was a direct disciple of the family in the Fusion Period. It was because of this status and at the cost of a lot of favors and property that he reluctantly borrowed this formation from Miaohua Mountain.
Although it costs so much, it is worth it.
All because of Yakumo Cup.
...
"Is it for Yakumo Cup?"
Lu Zhong, who was in the dark, listened to the entire group's conversation word for word.
Soon, he recalled information about this object.
Yakumo Cup, the main material for refining the realm-breaking elixir "Yakumo Barrier-Breaking Pill", is extremely rare in today's Feng Yuan world. It has been declared extinct several times, but has been reborn many times.
The Yakumo Barrier Breaking Pill made with it is suitable for monks in the Void Refining Stage.
For Lu Zhong now, it is unlikely that he will encounter the bottleneck in the late stage of virtual refining when he breaks through the small realm in the future.
But if you prepare in advance, you can be prepared for a rainy day.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be tempted.
On the other side, the three people in the dark were still talking.
The old monster Wuyou looked around and said with a puzzled expression: "It's strange, it's been so long, why hasn't that person come here yet? Could it be that he has already arrived here..."
"Chen Xia from Lingque Mountain? This person should not be here yet." The female cultivator who spoke now pulled out a jade mirror.
This mirror is her natal spiritual treasure, and it is called "Zhuanghua Mirror".
The makeup mirror is not good at fighting, so it can only be used barely against the enemy. However, it has an almost magical power, which is that it can monitor the place where the holder is and the breath of all living creatures within a hundred miles radius. With this, he can obtain a lot of information. Information, and even monks who are proficient in concealment cannot escape the surveillance of this mirror.
That's why female nuns are so confident.
"Jade, you trust it too much!"
Next to him, a young man in brocade clothes warned him coldly.
Then, without waiting for the female cultivator to respond, he turned over his hand to activate a jade talisman. This talisman also has a positioning effect, and the process of taking effect is extremely secretive, making it extremely difficult for people to detect.
Seeing that there was no reaction, it was confirmed that the target was not nearby.
But how did the three of them know that every move they made fell into Lu Zhong's eyes.
He looked at the slightly glowing tree species with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
"I have to say, this thing is indeed very useful."
Lu Zhong usually pays attention to collecting information, so he can naturally recognize that the jade talisman used by the young man in Jincai is a seventh-level "guidance talisman", but he did not expect that the tree species given by the scribe could easily resist its effect.
only.
As the scribe said, the power contained in tree seeds is extremely limited, and the more you use, the less it will be. But no matter what, this gave Lu Zhong a lot of sense of security.
At least, I can worry less about the evil eyes for the time being.
A while passed.
Lu Zhong saw that the three people were motionless and hiding in a hidden formation. They were all waiting on the spot, unable to guess their plans.
"I'm afraid I'm not thinking about hiding behind and reaping the benefits!"
Thinking of this, he decided to take advantage of the situation.
Contact the avatar who has sneaked into the secret realm and let the avatar make a big noise inside.
Soon, the movement in the secret realm was reported outside.
There were originally a steady stream of resentful beasts, attracted by the commotion after the avatar appeared, all the attention of the resentful beasts in the secret realm was attracted at once. After the chaos was fed back to the outside world, it became very obvious. The tide of beasts suddenly seemed to have stopped flowing, and no more resentful beasts came out of the secret realm.
Seeing this scene, Wuyou Laoguai and the other three people suddenly became confused.
With the ability of the master of Lingque Mountain, it was an abnormal thing to arrive at the Ancient Ming Fire Realm behind them.
The sudden change that occurred now made them wonder whether Chen Xia from Lingque Mountain had already entered the secret realm and started to eliminate the resentful beasts inside.
The old monster Wuyou stood up at this time, turned his gaze to the young man in brocade, and said after a slight hesitation: "Fellow Daoist Gongsun, you are the strongest among the three of us, and your ability to seize the opportunity is also the best. Now, in your opinion, what should we do next, should we enter the secret realm immediately?"
Hearing this, Gongsun Bin did not reply.
Instead, he looked around and recalled in his mind the situation at the entrance to the secret realm when he arrived here. After several seconds, with the other two looking at him expectantly, he finally gave his answer.
"go in."
When he said this, Lu Zhong couldn't help but smile secretly.
However, when he read the message sent back by his avatar, he suddenly stopped laughing.
Because of the bone dragon that the three of them mentioned just now.
As a heterogeneous species of heaven and earth, the strength of the bone dragon is far greater than that of the five-element dragon. Under the premise of the same realm, the strength is almost equal to that of elite monks from large sect families.
Currently, this dragon has been affected by the crack in the sky and has become a resentful dragon.
But this did not diminish its strength at all. On the contrary, it only strengthened it. In just one moment of meeting each other, countless thorns flew out and engulfed the incarnation of Qiang Nu.
"I really hope your three-pillar locking dragon formation is useful."
When Lu Zhong saw the three people starting, he followed them quietly.
Now it is the mantis hunting the cicada, and he is the oriole.
...
"be cheated!"
In the ancient Minghuo realm, the old monster Wuyou exclaimed.
As soon as he came in, he saw the bone dragon transformed into a resentful beast, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
The other two are no exception.
Based on the experience of a monk in the Void Refining stage, he doesn't know what happened here just now.
The three of them were clearly plotted.
But it's too late to regret now!
As soon as the bone dragon saw a living person, it immediately rushed over with a rumble.
Transformed into a resentful beast, it now looks like a bloated mountain of bones, and its characteristics can only be barely discernible. During the process, broken bones continued to fall, and at the same time, more black-smelling new bones were formed. Before the three people who came in could make any move, they opened the huge black mouth and sprayed out a stream of gray-white mist.
The three Wuyou old monsters had noticed it early and hurriedly avoided the direction of the fog flow.
"Zi la la!"
There was a heart-wrenching sound of corrosion.
In the direction of the gray mist, everything, whether it be rocks, bones, or even groups of resentful beasts, has been completely corroded, with no residue remaining.
"Ten thousand years of bone evil!"
Gongsun Bin's face turned pale and he murmured.
Immediately afterwards, his expression changed, but he saw the bone dragon shut up and was preparing to exhale for the second time.
"Quick, follow me and use the three-pillar dragon-locking formation!"
"Otherwise, when it breathes again, it won't be the same situation just now."
The old monster Wuyou on the side had fought against the bone dragon before, and he had the same idea at the moment. He sacrificed a golden square pillar without waiting for Gongsun Bin to urge him.
The square pillars are as if they were made of gold, with smooth surfaces and no traces visible.
But in fact, this pillar is made from the bones of a dust snake, and this snake is also a different species from heaven and earth. It can spit out an unknown mysterious light and use it to feed on dragons.
Once trapped by the three-pillar locking dragon formation and suppressed by the dust snake's mysterious light, the dragon will inevitably become paralyzed.
Putting his hope on this, Gongsun Bin was helpless.
This is their only hope at the moment.
If not, wait until the bone dragon sprays out the Ten Thousand Years Bone Demon again, covering the entrance area. Even if the three of them successfully escape the pursuit, they will have no chance to escape and will be trapped in the ancient Minghuo realm.
The decisive reaction of the three people made Lu Zhong secretly praise him.
However, there was no plan to take action.
It was the three of them who planned it first, and he had no burden for it at all.
Paying close attention to the development here, Lu Zhong secretly released the three incarnations and asked them to go in different directions to continue to explore the situation inside the Ancient Ming Fire Realm in order to prepare for the subsequent cleanup.
As for himself, he is lurking here.
One is for Yakumo Cup, and the other is to kill the bone dragon that turned into a resentful beast.
The importance of the two is almost the same.
...
"rise!"
Old Monster Wuyou, Gongsun Bin, and Fairy Yuwan shouted in unison.
In an instant, three golden pillars rose into the sky.
Then, it fell heavily like a meteor in an instant. After stirring up tall dust pillars, it turned into giant pillars hundreds of feet high, connected to each other by light curtains, and surrounded the bone dragon in the center.
"Lock!"
The three of them cooperated together and each produced a seal.
There was a loud "crash" sound.
The three golden pillars all screamed and radiated with dazzling brilliance, making the originally dark sky of the secret realm shine like daylight. Then, the trembling sound of the golden pillar became even louder, and it shot out several chains covered with runes, aiming directly at the trapped bone dragon, locking it tightly like a rice dumpling.
Seeing this, Lu Zhong continued to stand still.
If these three people can solve the bone dragon, it will be a good thing for him.
After all, the strength of the bone dragon transformed into a resentful beast should not be underestimated. Even Lu Zhong would feel a headache. Now that someone is helping him solve it, nothing will stop him.
Suddenly, his expression changed slightly.
But it wasn't that something unexpected happened, but one of the avatars sent out made a surprise discovery.
Switch perspective.
I saw a huge space in a cave filled with bone powder.
Obviously, this is where the bone dragon's lair is.
In the center of the nest, there is a white pool with a green plant growing in it. Its leaves are similar to lotus leaves, but they are the color of white bones, and the stems are like bones.
However, Lu Zhong's focus is not on this pool of white bone lotus, although this lotus is also valuable.
His eyes fell on the top of the pool.
There is a group of gleaming light suspended there, the contents are shaped like a cup and surrounded by cloud patterns. It is constantly breathing spiritual energy and absorbing the essence of the White Bone Lotus underneath.
It is Yakumo Cup who lives on the parasitic bone lotus!
