Chapter 29: Demon Slaying and Accidents (5,000 words yo (* ́I'*))
In the darkness, two pairs of eyes that radiated blood-red light stared at Mo Yuan coldly, motionless, without a trace of emotional fluctuations.
Looking at each other, Mo Yuan's heart was cold.
Wake up!
When?!
Before Mo Yuan could think more, the larger red-eyed blood bat opened its hideous mouth, revealing its two pale and cold fangs, and then a sharp cry came from the depths of its throat.
The scream sounded, and Mo Yuan only felt a tingling pain in the center of his eyebrows, as if countless sewing needles were pricking, but then, there was a cool feeling in the center of his eyebrows, smoothing out the tingling pain that had just risen.
"Soul Attack!" Mo Yuan instantly realized.
At this moment, at the center of Mo Yuan's eyebrows, a blood-colored lotus flower had quietly bloomed at some point, under the cover of the black hood, exuding a hazy red light, which was somewhat set off with the red eyes of the blood bat.
"Damn it!" While Mo Yuan scolded secretly, he couldn't help but rejoice.
Although Spirit Beast Mountain is proficient in the way of spirit beasts and knows the weaknesses of many demon beasts, Mo Yuan's mind has always been on the essence of blood, but he has not spent too much effort to understand this aspect.
Still not enough to know yourself and your opponent!
Mo Yuan was annoyed for a while, he didn't completely implement his mother's teachings, and fell to the details.
Let my mother say it right back then - if you don't listen to the old lady, you will suffer in front of you!
Divine soul attacks are the most difficult to prevent, in the world of cultivating immortals, all secret methods related to divine souls are extremely precious, and no one will be willing to trade them.
Fortunately, he has the "Blood Heavenly Demon Skill", and his cultivation has the Lotus Seal of the Guardian Spirit, otherwise he is afraid that he will get the way of the blood bat.
With the scream of the blood bat, all the blood bats woke up, Mo Yuan looked up, only to see that the top of the cave was covered with a pair of red eyes, dense, and many cold and crazy eyes focused on Mo Yuan, Mo Yuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, only to feel that his scalp was numb, and he was a little out of breath.
Looking at the countless eyes on the top, Mo Yuan decisively put away the Sunset Bow, and there was an extra spirit talisman and a low-level Gathering Fire Array Jade in his hand.
The spiritual power was injected into the array jade, and the red "silk thread" spread in the notches on the surface of the array jade, and soon, the silk thread was centered on the array jade, rapidly derived outward, and connected with each other, forming a complex closed pattern.
The pattern is circular and covers the entire hall, and wherever the red "silk threads" spread, the red light lights up and the temperature rises rapidly.
It all happened in the blink of an eye.
When all the silk threads were connected together, there was a "boom" in the cave, and wherever the silk threads went, golden red flames rose up, instantly dispelling all the darkness in the cave and illuminating the entire hall.
At the moment when the great array was formed, Mo Yuan also turned into a body of flames and merged into the entire large array.
The Earth Fire Diagram is still a first-level now, if the Earth Fire Diagram alone incarnates into a flame body, even if the blood bat is afraid of fire, but across the class, Mo Yuan will not be able to compete with the third-level blood bat.
But with the blessing of the Gathering Fire Array, it is different that the gathering of fire aura in the Gathering Fire Array, with the blessing of the formation, Mo Yuan's strength in the flame form will be greatly improved, just like the seventh-level fire spirit under the Spirit Beast Mountain, which is equivalent to the Jie Dan Monk, with the underground fire vein, it can compete with the Spirit Beast Mountain Patriarch who is in the infancy stage.
Although the Gathering Fire Array was not as good as the underground fire vein, the gap between the Qi refining period and the foundation building period was far less than the gap between the Dan Formation Stage and the Yuan Infant Period.
And the flame was already restrained by the blood bat, and with the blessing of the two phases, the ink abyss in the form of the flame was enough to compete with the blood bat.
It's just that the increase provided by the low-level Fire Gathering Array Jade is not enough, and Mo Yuan also has two middle-level Fire Gathering Array Jades, if it is a middle-level Array Jade, then Mo Yuan can only retreat first, considering whether to try to use those three high-level fire attribute spirit stones.
But now, you can fight first, there is an iron turtle, and Mo Yuan is not worried that he can't run when he can't fight.
The moment the fire gathering array was formed, the blood bats that were originally about to move on the top instantly became a mess, and the fear of flames in the depths of their bloodlines made them chaotic for a while, flying around, trying to avoid the flames.
Mo Yuan did not hesitate at all, and there was an extra piece of rune paper in his hand, on which was painted a strange flying knife, which was the rune treasure that Mo Yuan got from Feng Yue.
At this moment, the rune paper was flickering with spiritual light, resisting the flames on Mo Yuan's body, so that the rune paper would not be burned by the flames, but Rao was like this, and the flying knife pattern on the rune paper was also becoming dim at a slow speed.
The Flying Knife Rune Treasure, which had not been used for a few days, was slowly consuming the few lifespans it had left.
Mo Yuan's spiritual power was injected into the rune treasure, and in an instant, a strange flying knife formed in the air, exuding amazing spiritual power.
The power of the strange flying knife in the hands of Mo Yuan in the foundation building period far exceeded the performance in Feng Yue's hands that day.
Mo Yuan didn't pay attention to those first-level blood bats, and while the two large blood bats had not yet adapted to the sudden fire light brought by the fire gathering array, his mind moved, and the flying knife disappeared into the air in an instant, heading straight for the blood bats that were three feet in size.
The power of the rune treasure did not disappoint Mo Yuan, the flying knife flashed away, and before the blood bat could react, there was an extra blood hole in his body.
The terrible sound resounded through the cave, and the blood bats that were originally in chaos calmed down temporarily under this sound.
Mo Yuan was about to let the flying knife give the blood bat a fatal blow, but a sense of crisis suddenly rose in his heart, and before he had time to make the flying knife, Mo Yuan's figure instantly disappeared in place and appeared on the other side of the fire gathering array.
This is the natural power of the fire spirit itself, where the fire spirit is covered by flames, the fire spirit can teleport in the flames at will.
The fire spirit is born in flames, and the flames are equivalent to its body, which can be commanded by the arm.
In Mo Yuan's original place, the blood bat, which was more than two feet tall, opened its bloody mouth and let out a piercing strange scream, and the red lotus mark that bloomed at the center of Mo Yuan's eyebrows became even more vivid, as if it had come to life.
The injured blood bat that was more than three feet tall suddenly opened its bloody mouth, two sharp teeth were exposed, and it seemed to be howling, but Mo Yuan didn't hear any sound, only felt an invisible fluctuation coming from its mouth.
In the next moment, the eyes of many first-level blood bats that were originally afraid of fire like snakes and scorpions began to turn blood-red, and a tyrannical intent filled their eyes.
Being watched by many tyrannical eyes, Mo Yuan just felt a little bad, and saw those first-level blood bats rushing towards Mo Yuan, their eyes blood-red, and they no longer seemed to be afraid of flames.
Seeing this, Mo Yuan once again had a few more array jades in his hand, stimulated them one by one, and under the superposition of several fire gathering arrays, the flames in the cave became hotter and brighter, even outside the cave, and he could also feel the astonishing temperature rising sharply inside.
Looking at the "red dots and black curtains" surging towards him, Mo Yuan pinched his hands together, and the flames in the array rushed towards him, forming fireballs around him, and with one finger of one hand, countless fireballs shot towards the "red dots and black curtains".
Beginner High Fire Spell: Meteor Shower.
Under the amplification of the Ink Abyss Flame Body, every moment of the fireball was equivalent to the full force of the eleventh and twelfth layer of Qi Refining Cultivator.
A normal foundation building cultivator can condense thirty fireballs at a time, which is already extremely good, and Mo Yuan, with the blessing of the flame form and the fire gathering array, can see that hundreds of fireballs are formed in an instant, but these hundreds of fireballs have almost consumed all the aura of these fire gathering arrays.
Mo Yuan had to take the time to throw out a few more array jades and activate the formation to maintain the "geographical advantage".
The fireball collided with the blood bat, and the miserable sound echoed through the cavern, and there was an unpleasant stench in the air.
While dealing with those crazy blood bats, Mo Yuan did not forget to teleport in the formation to avoid the attacks of the two blood bats.
At the same time, Mo Yuan did not forget to secretly scold Tan Yunzi who provided him with the wrong news in his heart, if it wasn't for him who came here today, if he hadn't made enough preparations before coming here, he was afraid that no one would be able to go back alive in the hands of this group of blood bats.
If it hadn't been for the slightly smaller second-level blood bat that hadn't planned to attack him just now, that third-level blood bat would have fallen into his hands.
Seeing that the second-level blood bat was in the center of the formation, Mo Yuan snorted in his heart and decided to start with this "nosy bat" that was bad for him.
I saw Mo Yuan quickly pinch the spell and chant the spell, and the flames of several fire gathering arrays condensed separately, turning into flame chains, and winding towards the blood bats.
Elementary, high-level fire-type spell: Flame Chain.
This chain of flames was originally used to slash, but now, it was flexibly used by Mo Yuan to restrict the movement of the blood bats.
The blood bats were afraid of the flames in the array, and in an instant, they were entangled in the chains of flames, and under the scorching flames, they struggled violently, and let out a terrible scream.
Mo Yuan didn't have the slightest mercy, and with a finger of his hand, the strange flying knife that was originally floating in the air and doing nothing instantly turned into a streamer of light, piercing through the head of the trapped blood bat, without feeling the slightest hindrance.
The sound of the blood bat's screaming came to an abrupt end, and its struggling body fell to the ground.
Second-level blood bat, body fallen.
Seeing a second-level blood bat fall into his hands so easily, Mo Yuan suddenly felt that he seemed to have gone in the wrong direction before, and now it seemed that he had only found the true use of the Spirit Catalogue and the Spirit Talisman.
Before he had time to think about it, Mo Yuan's figure disappeared in place again, appearing in the other corner of the formation, and the third-level blood bat appeared in the place where he was.
The death of the second-level blood bat seemed to stimulate this third-level blood bat, its eyes became blood-red, looking at the second-level blood bat on the ground, and biting it all at once, the body of the second-level blood bat quickly dried up at a speed that was visible to the naked eye, and the momentum of the third-level blood bat's body was getting higher and higher, and the wound that was pierced by the flying knife rune treasure before began to heal.
Suddenly, the momentum of the third-level blood bat changed violently, its body was once again raised by a foot, the blood red color in its eyes became more intense, and the pair of sharp teeth in its mouth became more prominent.
It was at this moment that it used the blood of a companion or a wife or a husband to make a breakthrough and become a fourth-level demon beast equivalent to a monk in the late stage of foundation building.
After breaking through, the blood bat's eyes did not look at Mo Yuan, but a hiss, causing all the blood bats to rush towards it, and then, Mo Yuan saw a terrifying scene, those blood bats flew in front of the fourth-level blood bats, exploded themselves, turned into a cloud of blood mist, and rushed towards the pair of fangs of the blood bats.
Seeing this strange and bloody scene, Mo Yuan was horrified in his heart, and he didn't dare to be careless at all, seeing that so many blood bats were no longer stingy with his life, and Mo Yuan didn't dare to be stingy with his spirit stones.
Immediately took out a mid-level array jade, the formation was activated, and the entire hall was covered in an instant, and the rich fire aura filled the entire cave, and the entire hall seemed to turn into a raging sea of fire at this moment, which was the stalactite pillar hanging on the top, and the white bones of the demon beasts covered on the ground began to be melted by the flames.
At the same time, the original golden-red flames of the formation also began to be dyed with wisps of faint blue, adding a bit of weirdness.
Seeing that the fourth-level blood bat was still absorbing the blood mist burst out by the first-level blood bat, and the aura was still rising, there were already more than fourth-level demon beasts, and Mo Yuan did not dare to slack off.
The body of flames opened its mouth and inhaled, and the sea of fire instantly seemed to have found an outlet for flooding, and they all rushed towards Mo Yuan's mouth.
The body of the flames that Mo Yuan transformed instantly began to grow and condense, and instantly became more than a foot high, and the breath that was originally only equivalent to the early stage of foundation building actually began to rise, and soon, after all the flames were absorbed, the momentum exuded by Mo Yuan was comparable to that of a middle-level monk in foundation building.
However, this is still not comparable to the blood bat on the opposite side, the last blood mist was sucked into the mouth of the blood bat, the blood bat changed again, its original height of more than three feet has become close to zhang xu at this moment, the pair of fangs in the mouth are like two daggers, exuding a cold blood light, the wings are spread, five feet huge, and the bone spurs growing on it are also three feet long, which looks hideous and terrifying.
At this moment, this blood bat still has the appearance of the three-foot-tall dwarf before.
Seeing that the blood bat seemed to be still digesting the blood, and before he had time to attack, Mo Yuan did not dare to hesitate at all, and immediately pinched the trick and recited the spell.
At this moment, Mo Yuan no longer plans to use a primary spell, it is a junior high-level spell, and under his spell, it is only equivalent to a blow from a beginner-level cultivator who builds the foundation, so he can't help the blood bat at this moment.
What Mo Yuan was casting at the moment was a mid-level low-level spell that he had never cast before—the Lava Greatsword.
Lava Giant Sword, an intermediate-level low-level fire attribute spell, a killing technique that focuses on breaking enemies, and a sword is slashed out, with the power of cutting the river and breaking the stream.
With Mo Yuan's pinching mantra, a few breaths passed, and the three-zhang giant sword formed by condensing with flames gradually took shape.
After all, the Earth Fire Diagram itself is still a level one, although it has the power to build a foundation with the help of the Fire Gathering Array for a short time, but the core has not changed after all, and it has surprised Mo Yuan to be able to cast a mid-level spell in a few breaths.
Looking at the blood bat on the opposite side that was still rising, as if it was about to hit the bottleneck of the fifth level, Mo Yuan didn't dare to slack off, if he really let this blood bat break through the fifth level, whether he would be able to run away with the help of the iron turtle at that time, it was not certain.
Although Mo Yuan felt that directly attacking the fifth-level demon beast from the third-level demon beast was a bit of a fantasy, it should be a crazy move after the blood bat was forced to hurry, but even if there was only a slight possibility, Mo Yuan was unwilling to give the other party a chance.
Holding the sword in both hands, he raised it high, and slashed directly at the head of the blood bat with the exquisite sword style summarized by the world.
The blood bat seemed to have reached a critical moment, and it didn't dodge or dodge, but it actually took Mo Yuan's sword.
However, the fourth-level demon beast is only a fourth-level demon beast after all, if it is really a fifth-level blood bat, Mo Yuan's sword may not be able to help it, but a blood bat that has not yet broken through the fifth level cannot stop Mo Yuan's sword with all his strength.
The blood bat is good at speed, not defense, and it is precisely with its own shortcomings that it "attacks" the enemy's strengths, and the end is already doomed.
With a sword slash, the blood bat let out a terrible scream, and one of the membranous wings was directly cut off by Mo Yuan.
Mo Yuan used the lava giant sword to perform secular swordsmanship, and under a burst of wild slashing, the surging breath of the blood bat stopped, and fell back slightly, it fell to the ground, and the blood flowed from the wound opened by the giant sword, which was healing rapidly.
The lava greatsword in Mo Yuan's hand had already dispersed, and he no longer cast spells, but aimed at the flying knife rune treasure that was already falling in the air, and the flying knife made a buzzing sound, making his last sound in this world.
The flying knife slashed through the sky, and a bloody hole appeared on the forehead of the blood bat, and the tragic hissing came to an abrupt end, and the wriggling wound no longer healed.
The rune paper transformed by the rune treasure resurfaced, and Mo Yuan was just about to reach out to take it, when the rune paper spontaneously combusted, turned into ashes, and fluttered and scattered in the wind.
The battle is over.
The flame giant that Mo Yuan incarnated had not yet dissipated, and after his divine sense reached out, and after confirming that there was no danger around, he took out the soul lock bottle and extracted the spirits of the two blood bats, and quickly put away the corpses of the two blood bats, even the remnants of those first-level blood bats after they exploded.
Then he searched around the cave again, and put away all the remaining items after the fire raged, that is, the black granular luminous sand that had not been burned by the flames and escaped the catastrophe, and Mo Yuan did not let go.
After collecting everything, Mo Yuan did not stay any longer, and only after sweeping towards the outside of the cave and walking until he reached the entrance of the cave and confirmed that there was no danger, he disarmed the flame body.
After being promoted to the foundation building period, his flame body can be maintained for a lot longer than before, and after actively contacting the flame state at this moment, there is still a quarter of the spiritual power remaining in his body.
After all, most of the aura consumed when fighting with the blood bat just now came from the fire attribute aura in the fire gathering array.
After lifting the flame state, Mo Yuan called out the iron-eating turtle, and was about to fly out of the valley in the white dragon boat to recover those array flags, but just as he was about to move, Mo Yuan immediately stopped again, he turned his head to look into the distance of the mist, and after taking out the array disk for a while, the fog dispersed, and a small snake was shooting from the far side of the valley, and even left a trail in the air.
In the past six months, the Sniffing Spirit Snake has also made some progress under Mo Yuan's feeding with the flesh and blood of the demon beasts he hunted, and now the Sniffing Spirit Snake is already a first-level mid-level demon beast.
Because the demon beasts hunted by Mo Yuan were all poisonous demon beasts, and even some of them were second-level demon beasts like the Purple Xuan Poisonous Spider, the sniffing spirit snake had also transformed its own venom after devouring a large amount of these flesh and blood.
Now that a first-level high-level demon beast has been bitten, if it can't be dealt with, it will have to die.
And then the speed that he is good at in itself has also been improved after breaking through the middle level, which is not much weaker than Mo Yuan's speed after using the Cloud Treading Boots to increase his speed during the Qi refining period.
The venom of the Sniffing Spirit Snake now matches its speed, and among the first-level and middle-level demon beasts, it can barely be regarded as a hegemon, which can be regarded as getting rid of Mo Yuan's evaluation of its "rotten street spirit beast" when he was in the Spirit Beast Mountain.
The sniffing snake ran to Mo Yuan, "hissed and spitted out a letter, although Mo Yuan didn't know what it meant, but he also understood that something unusual must have happened outside, otherwise the sniffing snake would not have run in to find him."
Looking at the valley shrouded in dense fog, thinking of the error in the message given by Tanyunzi, and the tricky situation when facing the blood bat, Mo Yuan's heart was clouded.
When the sniffing snake was put into the spirit beast bag, and then sat cross-legged on the back of the iron-eating turtle, after a while of pinching and chanting, the figure turned into a streamer and merged into the iron-eating turtle's body, and then the yellow light on the iron-eating turtle flashed, and disappeared into the ground.
Just a quarter of an hour after the figure of the iron-eating turtle disappeared, the mist array changed, and the originally thick mist was gradually becoming thinner, and someone actually destroyed the formation laid by Mo Yuan outside.
After the fog became completely thin and became visible normally, two streamers flew from outside the valley, and one of them was the fat-faced middle-aged Tanyunzi who had an intelligence deal with Mo Yuan.
