Chapter Eighty-Six: The Fifth-Order Egret
This time, the reason why the Demon King of Poison Dragon Pool focused on the direction of attack in Yu Country was mainly to avenge the hatred of the Heaven Swallowing Toad and the Iron-backed Ape.
In the past hundred years, the direction of Yu Kingdom has lost fifth-order demon beasts one after another.
Using these two fifth-order demon pills, Liu Guyan cultivated Tang Fenglan, Qingxuanzong also cultivated Hu Peiyu, and there were two more Jindan stage monks in a row, and the balance of power in this direction was already unbalanced.
Moreover, Lu Hongniang occupied Guiyuan Mountain, and Liu Guyan occupied Tianchan Cave, both of which had penetrated into the heart of the demon beast territory, relying on the two fifth-order spiritual veins, Qingxuanzong's defense line directly expanded to the south for tens of thousands of miles, taking a large area of territory into the bag.
Although this large territory is not fully developed, it has a lot of resources, there are only six or seven fourth-order spiritual veins, and the remaining low-level spiritual veins can support the cultivation of 100,000 low-level cultivators.
In the same way, if this area is controlled by demon beasts, it can also breed a large number of low-level demon beasts and replenish the army of demon beasts in Poison Dragon Pool.
There are a total of four fifth-order demon beasts besieging Guiyuan Mountain, among which the Blood Cloud Marten and the clan are still besieging Yunling Mountain.
This fifth-order demon beast is relatively intelligent, and its wisdom is no weaker than that of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old young man.
Although it had the upper hand in Yunling Mountain, it was unwilling to consume the descendants below, and only drove away some vassal demon beasts to consume the strength of Huo Kaicheng and others, wanting to eliminate this group of enemies at the least cost.
In the direction of Guiyuan Mountain, although the Wild Boar King has the highest level and is already in the middle of the fifth order, the leader of this demon beast army is the Poison Dragon Pond fifth-order demon beast black scale.
This fifth-order demon beast is the descendant of the Qingtong Demon King of Poison Dragon Pond, and he has been enlightened by the Demon King since he was born shortly after, and his wisdom even surpasses that of ordinary people.
The age of this demon beast was less than three hundred years old, and it had raised its level to the early stage of the fifth order, and its cultivation speed was no less than that of a human cultivator.
You must know that the longevity of the demon beast is far beyond that of the monk, a sixth-order demon beast has at least three thousand years of longevity, and some demon beasts of special races, the longevity is more than 10,000 years, and even the monks of the Yuan Shen period are willing to bow down.
The longevity of the demon beast far surpasses that of humans, and the speed of cultivation is naturally far from being equal to that of human monks, and if demon beasts want to improve their level, they often need to spend a longer time to purify their bloodline.
Although the black scales are young, they have an extraordinary heritage, this demon beast is also a master of refining, able to refine the fading remains of the demon beast into excellent magic weapons, and its many refining methods have also learned the skills of human monks.
The Qingtong Demon King of Poison Dragon Pond even captured some human monks and let them multiply in the territory of Poison Dragon Pond, passing on the skills of human monks to demon beasts for use.
In the past few hundred years, taking advantage of the civil strife and shrinking power of Wu, the Qingtong Demon King has made waves in the Southern Wilderness and has arrested many people.
In order to survive in the Poison Dragon Pool, these monks can only teach the human monks the methods of alchemy, refining, talisman making, and array to the demon beasts, and even they have to serve the demon beasts of the Poison Dragon Pool.
Fortunately, most of the demon beasts lack wisdom, and they need precious resources to open their spiritual intelligence, even if they are in the infancy of the demon king, they can only let their descendants open their spiritual wisdom in advance, and they can't benefit all the demon beast army at all.
Otherwise, the demon beast itself has a strong legal body, and has learned the immortal cultivation skills of human monks, the power of the demon beast in the Southern Wilderness will skyrocket, even if the ten major sects of Great Zhou join forces, they will not be able to stop this enemy.
When Zhang Zhixuan appeared in the Beetle Mountain, he was noticed by the low-level demon beasts nearby, but unfortunately these low-level demon beasts had no wisdom and could not inform the black scales of the information as soon as possible.
When a large number of monks stationed in the mountain withdrew, this situation was noticed by the fifth-order egret who was in charge of monitoring the battlefield.
The fifth-order egret had already activated its spiritual intelligence, and after discovering the anomaly of the Beetle Mountain, it chased Zhang Zhixuan while using the concentric lock to pass the news to the black scales.
Wu Liang originally planned to repeat the old plan, and then use the strategy of encircling the point to send reinforcements to take down the Jin Laozu and his wife.
According to the information of Poison Dragon Pond, there are only three Jindan monks in Qingxuanzong, except for Lu Hongniang and only two Jin Laozu of Qingyang Mountain.
This time, they unexpectedly hit Lu Hongniang hard, originally thought that even if Jin Laozu didn't take the bait, they could slowly pull out Guiyuan Mountain, kill Lu Hongniang to get rid of an enemy, and by the way, push the battle line back to the vicinity of Zhongxuan Mountain again.
Unexpectedly, the news from the egret that there was another Jindan monk in the direction of the mountain.
After receiving the news, Wu Liang immediately made a decision and gave an order to the Blood Cloud Mink through the concentric lock, asking it to solve the remnants of Hongling Mountain as soon as possible, and free up his hands to contain Lu Hongniang and others, so as not to let the monks of Guiyuan Mountain break through and flee for their lives.
Then he ordered the fifth-order egret to harass and contain Zhang Zhixuan, and he took the wild boar king to prepare to besiege Zhang Zhixuan, preparing to solve an enemy like the last time he ambushed Lu Hongniang.
The black scales didn't know that there was a teleportation array leading to the Tianchan Cave on Guiyuan Mountain, and after this medium-distance teleportation array was built, it was hardly used except for a few experimental uses.
The monks on Guiyuan Mountain had already left a way back, and they did not have the heart to break through desperately.
After sending away the low-level monks on the mountain, Zhang Zhixuan sacrificed the divine boat and immediately flew away in the direction of the camel mountain.
The mountain is less than 30,000 miles away from the camel mountain, and according to Zhang Zhixuan's current speed, it is only a day's journey.
As soon as they left the Beetle Mountain, the fifth-order egret chased after them, this kind of demon beast that was born to fly, far faster than the Jindan monk, even if Zhang Zhixuan drove the Shenxing Boat, the speed was not as fast as this egret, and the distance between the two sides gradually began to narrow.
Seeing that the egret was chasing after him, Zhang Zhixuan had already prepared, he raised his hand slightly, and released the first fifth-order magic weapon, the Golden Light God Thread Net.
Suddenly, a large net grew in the wind, and a large area of raging fire turned into a network of fire, releasing a wall of fire dozens of feet high, which rushed to the front of him in an instant.
The fifth-order egret was shocked, it was a water-type demon beast, and it hated fire spells the most.
Seeing that the Golden Light God Wire Network was in a hurry, and it was not easy to dodge in a hurry, a large area of blue light was released from the egret's body, and he actually wanted to directly hard top and break through the siege of the Golden Light God Line Network.
Unexpectedly, the flames on the Golden Light God Line Network were extremely domineering, and the raging flames actually trapped the egret in the sea of fire in an instant.
The egret emitted blue light up and down its body, and the abundant water element power in the dantian seemed to be inexhaustible, even if it was trapped in the net, it was not damaged at all.
Zhang Zhixuan's magic trick pinched, and the Heavenly Fire God Needle flew out, only to see a red light fly out of Li Xu in an instant, stabbing fiercely at the body of the egret demon beast.
The Heavenly Fire Divine Needle comes from the collection of Qingchan's previous life, and the grade of this magic weapon is also the middle grade of the fifth order, as a well-known Yin weapon in the immortal cultivation world. The speed of the Flying Probe Spell is extremely impressive.
Just when the Egret Demon Beast was unresponsive, the Heavenly Fire Divine Needle pierced through the Egret Demon Beast's defensive shield and stabbed its flesh.
The egret demon beast felt a pain in its body, let out a long roar, and in an instant, it spit out a blue inner pill the size of a walnut, and its whole body kept shaking up and down, and it successfully forced out the flying needle that shot into its body.
