The Red Flame Giant Tiger and the White Feather Demon Bird were both fifth-order mid-grade demon beasts, and even when they were in their prime, it would not be difficult for Zhou Yang to clean them up one-on-one.

And now, after a night of fighting, the strength of the two demon beasts is not as good as seventy percent of what they were in their heyday, even if they join forces to fight the enemy, the strength they exert is comparable to that of a fifth-order high-grade demon beast.

In fact, because they only wanted to devour the [Demon Blood Ancient Lotus], the two demon beasts had no intention of fighting Zhou Yang to the death at all.

Here, Zhou Yanggang slashed the Chiyan Giant Tiger with a single sword, and the white-feathered demon bird over there took this opportunity to shake its wings and pounce on the [Demon Blood Ancient Lotus], and there was no intention of rescuing the Chiyan Giant Tiger at all.

But as soon as it was halfway there, Zhou Yang, who was guarding the water pool above the blood pool, waved his fists, and instantly shot out two blue-gold dragon shadows and bombarded it, blasting it out.

After being repelled and injured several times by Zhou Yang in this way, the two demon beasts slightly restrained the idea of escaping alone, and after exchanging a few words with each other, they officially joined forces to launch a fierce attack on Zhou Yang.

Seeing this, Zhou Yang was not afraid at all, but instead used the two demon beasts as a whetstone to sharpen himself, or hit with heavy punches, or envoy magic weapons, or cast magical powers, all kinds of magical powers took turns to greet the two demon beasts.

He fought to the fullest, and even competed with the Red Flame Giant Tiger with the strength of his body, and slammed the tiger's claws with an iron fist, even if he was injured because of this, he didn't care.

And when Zhou Yang was fighting with the two fifth-order demon beasts, the two spirit birds, the golden-winged thunder eagle and the colorful peacock, obeyed his orders and began to hunt those fourth-order demon beasts around the battlefield that had not yet dispersed.

They are all gifted divine horse aliens, and they have followed their respective masters to obtain many benefits that are difficult for ordinary wild monsters to obtain, and their combat power is stronger than those demon beasts of the same level.

At the beginning, on the boundless snowfield, the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle fought a group of wolves alone, and not only did he not suffer any damage afterwards, but also killed more than a dozen third-order [Frost Giant Wolves] and a fourth-order demon wolf.

Today's performance is no worse than that day.

In less than half an hour, the first fourth-order mid-grade strength bull demon was killed by it first, and then, according to Zhou Yang's instructions, after pecking out the demon pill, he grabbed the body of the bull demon and threw it into the blood pool.

After doing all this, it also let out an eagle roar at the colorful peacock defiantly, as if mocking the opponent's strength.

Then, without waiting for the multicolored peacock with its feathers on its head to respond, it had already spread its wings and pounced on another fourth-order high-grade bear demon again.

When the colorful peacock saw this scene, he could only let out a long roar of anger, and poured out all his anger on the fourth-order high-grade lizard demon he had chosen.

A quarter of an hour later, it finally killed the lizard demon, dug up the demon pill and threw the lizard demon's body into the pool of blood.

It's just that at this time, the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle was about to kill the bear demon.

Seeing this situation, the colorful peacock could only angrily kill a fourth-order middle-grade wolf demon who was about to slip away.

The hunting game of the two spirit birds, Zhou Yang naturally saw it in his eyes.

He was happy to see it come to fruition, and he couldn't ask for it.

It just so happened that he hadn't decided who to give the [Demon Blood Ancient Lotus] to in the end, if these two spirit birds were to win or lose in this hunting game, he would have an excellent reason to give the spirit object to the victor.

And with the throwing of the corpses of several fourth-order demon beasts, and the blood from the two fifth-order demon beasts injured by Zhou Yang, the lotus seeds on the blood-colored red lotus also became a little larger with the naked eye.

Even between Zhou Yang's nose twitching, he could smell the strange fragrance emitted by the lotus seeds.

The fragrance was very unique, and after Zhou Yang smelled it, he felt a burst of restlessness in the blood all over his body, as if there was a fire burning.

After the two demon beasts of the Red Flame Giant Tiger and the White Feather Demon Bird heard this vision, they were even more like they had taken some great supplement, and their spirits suddenly became extremely excited, and their attacks became much more aggressive.

This change made Zhou Yang secretly frightened, and at the same time, he also strengthened his determination to make the lotus seeds mature.

To make the lotus seeds mature, the two fifth-order demon beasts of the Red Flame Giant Tiger and the White Feather Demon Bird are undoubtedly the key, only by killing them and nourishing the [Demon Blood Ancient Lotus] with their flesh and blood essence can it be possible to make the lotus seeds fully mature.

Zhou Yang was originally consuming with the two demon beasts, in addition to wanting to sharpen his combat ability with the help of the hands of the two demon beasts, but also because the strength of the two demon beasts was still mostly preserved, if he showed overwhelming strength, he was likely to scare him away, or he would explode the demon pill in despair and fight with him.

But now, the strange fragrance of the lotus seed seemed to have caused the two fifth-order demon beasts to start to lose their minds.

Zhou Yang could see very clearly that after the strange fragrance of lotus seeds appeared, although the two demon beasts were extremely excited, as if they had eaten a great tonic, the wisdom and agility in their eyes were rapidly disappearing, and they were gradually dominated by animal instincts.

In this way, he didn't have to worry about the two demon beasts running away at all, because it was impossible for a demon beast that was dominated by beast instinct to give up the spirit of [Demon Blood Ancient Lotus].

"It's time to end this game!"

After muttering to himself, his eyes sharpened, and he brazenly launched a special move.

I only heard a shocking dragon roar, and a blue-gold dragon roared out from behind Zhou Yang, and in the blink of an eye, it pounced in front of the white-feathered demon bird.

In an instant, the white feathers flew all over the sky, and pieces of white feathers were splashed with pieces of bloody and minced flesh, and the huge demon body of the white feather demon bird was directly torn into several petals by the blue-gold dragon, and fell to the ground below.

Sou!

A white-gold demon pill shot out from the falling demon bird corpse, and a demon bird's blood shadow appeared above, screaming and picking up the demon pill to escape.

But it had just flown out of the tower not far before it was taken in by a golden pagoda.

Zhou Yang took away the demon pill of the white feather demon bird, and with a wave of his hand, several fifth-order spirit runes shot out from his hand, turning into various spells and blasting towards the oncoming Chiyan Giant Tiger.

Over the years, he had killed a lot of Jindan period monks, and there were thirty or forty fifth-order spirit runes hoarded in his hands, although more than half of them had been placed in the Zhou family's secret vault and given to a few disciples, but there were still more than ten in his hands for backup.

At this time, he hit nearly half of the fifth-order spirit rune in his hand at once, and instantly blasted the Red Flame Giant Tiger into a serious injury.

Then, before the seriously injured Red Flame Tiger could breathe again, a spear glowing with purple flame suddenly fell from the sky and pierced through the back of its neck.

Whoa~Roar!

The Red Flame Giant Tiger raised its head and glared at the tiny human on the other side, and let out a roar full of reluctance and reluctance, and the huge tiger body fell to the ground with a bang.

Thundered!

The Red Flame Giant Tiger, which was dozens of feet long, smashed down from the air to the ground, and the ground suddenly seemed to be hit by a meteorite, and it collapsed downward in the midst of a huge earthquake, forming a huge crater as wide as a hundred zhang.

And until death, the Chiyan Giant Tiger's huge tiger eyes still opened and glared at the sky, and its eyes could still see its unwillingness to die and its reluctance to love life.

Obviously, after the "Sun Burning Heart Spear" penetrated his neck into his head, and under the effect of the "Burning Soul" attached to the magic weapon, the Red Flame Giant Tiger's mind was temporarily restored to normal by the chaotic fragrance of lotus seeds.

It's a pity that it can't run away or fight with Zhou Yang at this time, so it can only use all its strength to send out the last swan song of its life.

In the sky, Zhou Yang looked at this scene and was also slightly moved.

This was the first time he had felt this kind of tragic and unyielding meaning in a demon beast, and the last swan song of the Red Flame Giant Tiger made him feel a kind of tragic feeling of a hero's end.

This Red Flame Giant Tiger was once also a powerhouse in this wild mountain range, and a king who ruled over the demons.

However, because of the appearance of the [Demon Blood Ancient Lotus], both its king and the demons in his own territory were forced to be involved in this bloody battle like a meat grinder.

Many of the various demon beasts that were slaughtered before came from its territory.

It did not hesitate to slaughter its own men to nourish the [Demon Blood Ancient Lotus], wanting to devour this spiritual object to help it go further.

However, no matter how hard it struggles, the gap in strength still makes all its efforts become flowing water in the end, and it also takes its own life.

"Sure enough, everything has a spirit, I didn't expect that a mere demon beast could have such a moving performance!"

Zhou Yang sighed lightly, and was indeed a little shocked by the tragic and unyielding meaning of the Red Flame Giant Tiger.

But this kind of shock did not make him change his decision.

Therefore, after mourning for a while at the corpse of the Red Flame Giant Tiger, he made a move and reached out to recall the "Sun Burning Heart Gun" that had submerged into the head of the Red Flame Giant Tiger, and then took out the demon pill and threw the corpse into the pool of blood together with the remains of the white-feathered demon bird from before.

Goo Boom Goo

The water in the pool of blood pool surged and soon engulfed the huge bodies of the two demon beasts.

Immediately after, in Zhou Yang's expectant gaze, the lotus seeds on the blood-colored red lotus quickly matured.

It's done!

Zhou Yang looked at the plump and swollen lotus seeds on the lotus canopy, and a heartfelt smile finally appeared on his face.

There were seventeen lotus seeds, each the size of an egg, and the color was purple-red, as attractive as ripe grapes.

It took him a lot of effort to take his eyes off the seventeen lotus seeds, and then his gaze fell on the two spirit birds around him, and he said slowly: "Just now, you two hunted demon beasts and threw them into the blood pool to nourish this [Demon Blood Ancient Lotus], Jinpeng invested a total of three demon beasts, Cai'er, you only invested two demon beasts, and now I will give this spirit beast to Jinpeng to take, Cai'er, are you convinced?"

Cai'er is the name given by Jiang Fengxian to the colorful peacock, and Zhou Yang also used this name to call it.

Hearing his words at this time, the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle suddenly let out a long roar of joy, glanced at the colorful peacock with a proud look, and quickly rushed out of his body and pounced on the blood-colored red lotus, opening his mouth to devour those blooming petals.

Seeing this, the colorful peacock didn't make any moves, although his eyes were full of unwillingness and resentment, he just skimmed his head, didn't look at this scene, and responded to Zhou Yang's words silently.

When Zhou Yang saw this scene, he couldn't help but smile, knowing that this beautiful big bird was still a little unconvinced.

But it doesn't matter, after the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle is promoted to a fifth-order demon beast, this arrogant multicolored peacock will no longer be able to fight with it, and the two spirit birds will naturally not make any more trouble at that time.

It's just that what neither Zhou Yang nor the Colorful Peacock expected was that after eating about two-thirds of the [Demon Blood Ancient Lotus] petals, the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle suddenly stopped eating, and then raised his claws to grab the remaining petals and break them, and threw them to the Colorful Peacock.

After doing all this, Zhou Yang contacted the [Demon Soul Contract] signed with him, and received the idea conveyed by the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle to enter the sleeping spirit beast ring.

Seeing this, he was slightly stunned, then shook the spirit beast ring in his hand with a smile on his face, and took the swooping golden-winged thunder eagle inside.

Then he looked at the colorful peacocks with confused eyes looking at the [Demon Blood Ancient Lotus] petals on the ground, and said with a slight smile: "You see, although Jinpeng has a stubborn temperament, his nature is still not bad, and he has left a copy for you, you don't want to fight with it in the future, let's get along with each other!"

When the colorful peacock heard what he said, he opened his mouth and let out a low sound of unknown meaning, and he didn't know whether to agree with his words or not to say anything.

But judging from the fact that it pecked at those [Demon Blood Ancient Lotus] petals in the future, it obviously accepted the kindness of the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle.

After eating the remaining one-third of the petals, the multicolored peacock looked up at the remaining lotus pod, the lotus seeds on the lotus pod, to be precise.

It looked at the purple and full lotus seeds, and suddenly stretched out its claws and gestured at Zhou Yang, and finally left two claws to hook.

"You want two lotus seeds?"

Zhou Yang's brows furrowed slightly, and he already understood its meaning through the movements of the colorful peacock.

To be honest, he didn't know what those lotus seeds were for now, but judging from the fact that two fifth-order demon beasts and one fifth-order brute beast corpse were consumed in the process of cultivating lotus seeds, this lotus seed was obviously a more precious spiritual object than flower petals.

The colorful peacock now wants to take two lotus seeds as soon as he stretches out his claws, even with Zhou Yang's atmosphere, he is a little reluctant at this time.

The point is that he doesn't know what the colorful peacock wants lotus seeds to do.

If he just wants to try something new, isn't he a big loss?

Therefore, after hesitating for a moment, he looked at the colorful peacock with a serious face and asked, "Can you tell me, what do you want lotus seeds to do?"

When the colorful peacock heard what he said, he immediately opened his mouth and chirped at the spirit beast on his wrist.

Seeing this, his heart moved, and he couldn't help blurting out: "You mean, as long as you devour two more lotus seeds, you can also be promoted to the fifth rank?"

In the spirit beast ring on his wrist, the golden-winged thunder eagle was sleeping and digesting the medicinal power of the [Demon Blood Ancient Lotus] to impact the fifth order, and the performance of the colorful peacock at this time made him have to make this inference.

And the truth was just as he deduced, after hearing his words, the colorful peacock nodded again and again, and a pair of eyes looked at him with anticipation.

"Okay, then I'll give you two lotus seeds. ”

Zhou Yang nodded slightly, raised his hand, and shot a mana at the lotus flower, then took out two lotus seeds and hit the colorful peacock, which was swallowed into his stomach in one bite.

After swallowing the lotus seed, the colorful peacock first nodded at him with a grateful look in his eyes, and then fell asleep into the other spirit beast ring in his hand.

I don't know how long it will take for the two spirit birds to be promoted to the fifth rank, Zhou Yang didn't wait in place, he directly raised his hand to take off the lotus canopy in the blood pool pool and keep it in a jade box, and then left the valley basin to search the entire mountain range and various spirit mountains.

In order to make the [Demon Blood Ancient Lotus] mature, most of the demon beasts and brute beasts in this mountain range have been used as its nourishment, and the various spiritual objects that these demon beasts and brute beasts originally guarded have now become ownerless things, and they are completely at the mercy of Zhou Yang.

He searched the entire mountain range for three days and three nights, harvesting seven fifth-order elixirs, more than forty fourth-order elixirs, and thousands of third-order elixirs, and also found many demon beast eggs, including two fourth-order demon bird eggs.

In addition, in the old nest of the Red Flame Giant Tiger, Zhou Yang also found a large piece of [Yanxing Stone], which weighed tens of thousands of catties.

This [Yanxing Stone] is a kind of fire-attribute spirit ore, which can refine a fifth-order spiritual gold [Yanxing Iron], and [Yanxing Iron] is one of the best materials for refining the fifth-order Dan furnace and the Ding.

Zhou Yang has also obtained a lot of fifth-order magic weapons over the years, but he has never obtained a single precious thing like the fifth-order Dan furnace and the fifth-order instrument tripod.

The appearance of this [Flame Star Stone] gave him hope.

With the volume of this [Yanxing Stone] in his hand, after refining, he could at least get hundreds of catties of [Yanxing Iron], which was completely enough to refine a fifth-order instrument tripod or Dan furnace.

With these rich harvests, Zhou Yang embarked on the road of return with satisfaction.

Half a year later, he returned to Chongxuan Mountain in a low-key manner.

"Husband, you're finally back!"

On Chongxuan Mountain, after Xiao Ying saw Zhou Yang who had returned safely, she greeted him into the cave with a smile on her face as if she saw the backbone of the Lord.

"What's wrong? Look at Ying'er, what happened in the year I left?"

In the cave mansion, Zhou Yang sat down at the table, remembering the sad look of the Taoist priest before he saw him just now, and couldn't help but ask about it.

When Xiao Ying heard what he said, her pretty face froze, she looked at him with a solemn face and nodded lightly: "Husband, you are right, there is indeed a tricky matter, and the concubine body cannot be in charge, and you need to deal with it." ”

It turned out that half a year after Zhou Yang left, there were middle and low-level monks in the mountains and forests around Chongxuan Mountain who frequently went in and out to hunt demon beasts and pick elixirs, and even some bold guys even entered within a hundred miles of Chongxuan Mountain.

And Xiao Ying asked Wang Yanzhang to go out to investigate and found that most of the monks who entered the territory of Chongxuan Mountain were monks from various vassal immortal families of the "Six Dao Alliance" in Anguo, and only a very few of them were casual cultivators who saw a profitable follow-up and fished in troubled waters.

This is undoubtedly a red flag.

You must know that since Zhou Yang's pseudonymous "Qingyun Sanren" entered Chongxuan Mountain, there have been very few people from the "Six Dao Alliance" within a radius of thousands of miles from Chongxuan Mountain.

Now the monks of the various vassal immortal cultivation families attached to the "Six Dao Alliance" have begun to set foot here, and openly hunt and kill the demon beasts inhabiting the territory, and pick the wild elixir in the territory, which is undoubtedly a provocation and temptation.

In the face of this kind of provocation and temptation, when Zhou Yang was not at home, Xiao Ying couldn't make up her mind what to do with it alone.

It's no wonder that when Zhou Yang first came back and saw her, he had a sad face.

At this time, after Zhou Yang listened to her story, his face changed slightly, and then he groaned slightly, then looked at her and asked, "Have you told Qingyang Zhenren seniors about this?"

When Xiao Ying heard this, she immediately nodded and responded: "Informed, but the Qingyang seniors are said to be in retreat and cultivation now, unless the [Six Dao Alliance] really attacks on a large scale, otherwise the Xuanyang Immortal Sect will not dare to easily wake up his old man from the retreat, so the answer to us is to dispose of it at our own discretion!"

"Is that so?"

Zhou Yang frowned slightly, and couldn't help but bow his head and ponder.

After a long while, he stretched his brows and nodded lightly: "This matter is for the husband to understand how to deal with it, Ying'er, you don't care about this matter, the fifth-order [Tree Demon Heart] has already been found for you, and then you will concentrate on practicing alchemy and preparing for refining the natal weapon." ”

"The concubine understands, husband, you have to be more careful yourself, it's really not okay, it's not impossible for us to give up this Chong Xuanshan and return to the boundless sand sea to cultivate the immortal realm. ”

Xiao Ying nodded her head, and didn't ask him how to deal with it, but just said her opinion with a worried face.

Regarding her statement, Zhou Yang was noncommittal.

Retreating to the boundless sand sea to cultivate the immortal realm, that is the next policy among the next strategies.

Even if Zhou Yang gave up rushing to Xuanshan Mountain, he could still find Xuanyang Immortal Sect to arrange another spiritual mountain for him to cultivate, how could he be willing to return to the boundless sand sea to cultivate the immortal realm like this.

What's more, in his opinion, this matter has not yet reached that serious level.

Next, Xiao Ying naturally went to the refining room to retreat and learn alchemy to lay the foundation for refining natal weapons.

However, Zhou Yang quickly called all the foundation building disciples on the mountain together.

Now, including Ye Yunshan, who has just successfully built the foundation, there are a total of seven foundation-building monks on Chongxuan Mountain, namely Zhou Ronghua, Zhou Rongxiang, Zhou Shengying, Li Qingyun, Ren Fei, Wang Yanzhang, and Ye Yunshan.

Among them, Zhou Ronghua, who has the highest cultivation, is already the third layer of foundation building, and Ye Yunshan, who has the lowest cultivation, has only succeeded in building the foundation for less than three months, and has not yet completed the transfer of exercises.

At this time, after Zhou Yang called all these people to the front, his eyes swept over the faces of the seven people, and he looked directly at a few people and asked: "Now the situation outside the mountain, you should have heard about it, as my disciple of Chong Xuanshan, let me ask you, do you have the courage to fight with those invaders?"

Hearing his words, the faces of the seven people changed in unison.

The three foundation-building monks of the Zhou family were okay, they knew that Zhou Yang, the ancestor of the Zhou family, would definitely not let these descendants of the family be sent to death, so although they were apprehensive in their hearts, they were quite calm.

But Li Qingyun and Ren Fei, the two registered disciples from scattered cultivation, could not hide their panic, and their eyes flickered and they didn't dare to look at Zhou Yang.

But the person who performed the best was Wang Yanzhang, who had been ridiculed by others for "eating soft rice".

After listening to Zhou Yang's words, this person quickly bowed and replied: "I am willing to fight to the death for my master!"

Zhou Yang's face immediately showed an appreciative smile.

Zhou Ronghua and the other three Zhou family monks, hearing Wang Yanzhang's words at this time, saw the smile on Zhou Yang's face, and finally realized that they came to their senses, and hurriedly followed up: "I am willing to fight to the death for my master!"

When Li Qingyun and Ren Fei saw this, although they were so scared in their hearts, they could only stubbornly follow along.

As for Ye Yunshan, she doesn't need to say anything, as Xiao Ying's personal disciple, if Zhou Yang has an order, she will definitely go to the sword mountain and the sea of fire, otherwise how can she be worthy of the words "personal disciple".

"Okay, since you have this heart, as a teacher, I will give you and other magic weapons and spiritual runes to help you and others to raise their prestige. ”

Zhou Yang nodded, shouted the word "good", and then with a wave of his hand, he took out a bunch of third-order magic weapons and third-order spirit runes and placed them in front of him, and these seven people could choose at will.

When he left the Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm, he deliberately selected a batch of high-quality third-order magic weapons and spirit runes from the Zhou family's treasure house, in order to deal with today's situation, and now it has finally come in handy.
