Chapter 13: The Fire Phoenix
"You're right, this is Petrification, a derivative of Transfiguration. Wizards believe that the forces of nature are the most powerful and therefore do everything they can to make themselves a part of them. Hard rocks, powerful creatures are all ways to blend in with nature, and you're lucky enough to be able to see the most orthodox forms of witchcraft. "Orthodox witchcraft, hehe, what is it compared to the Dao of the Heavenly Sect! You can only turn into a part of nature, but I can directly summon the power of nature. ”
"It's really you, whether it's the Tongtian Sect or the Dao Sect, the power of the five elements you summon is a mimicry of the gathering of the five elements, not a genuine force of nature. The true force of nature is the heavenly punishment from the heavens, a natural disaster that can destroy everything. It's time to teach you to be a man, Dongfang Changqing, you guy is too arrogant, too smelly, Lao Tzu has long looked at you unpleasantly. ”
"There is no such thing as a rain in this world. ”
"You can give it a try! Lao Tzu is not an ordinary stone, but a stubborn stone that has absorbed the essence of the sun and the moon and is integrated with heaven and earth, coupled with the assistance of various transformation techniques, the knife is constantly chopping, the gun is impenetrable, and the fire is not rotten, it is a real and truly immortal body! It is much more powerful than the Vajra incorruptible body of the Buddha Sect, and it is time for you to suffer a little. ”
It was too late, it was too late, Shen Teng dissipated his desire to have fun, turned into a firebird and rushed towards the demon dragon seriously. This was the second time it had slammed its head forward towards a behemoth hundreds of times its size, and it looked the same as before, as if it was hitting a stone with an egg.
The dragon stretched out his right paw in the same way, grabbing him accurately, and everything seemed to be a copy of the previous one.
And yet, right now!
The direction of the story has changed, Shen Teng actually went straight out of his body, and after opening a big hole in the dragon's claw, he continued to rush forward, and nothing seemed to be able to stop him.
"Is it a combination of Transfiguration and Sclerosing?" If Shen Fei was here at the moment, he would definitely be surprised to find that what Shen Teng was doing seemed to be able to be completed by reversing the Dao of the Universe, but he said that this was an act of integrating his body into nature, and it was a way to conform to the Dao of Heaven. If it is really as Shen Teng said, then wouldn't reversal and compliance become a paradox?
"Brush!" Shen Teng's speed was even faster and faster, rushing directly into the neck of the demon dragon, and when it came out of his body, the demon dragon screamed in pain. Dongfang Changqing's method of controlling the demon dragon is obviously different from the method of controlling the demon beast of the ordinary Taoist priest of the Tongtian Sect, the demon dragon not only maintains a part of his consciousness, but also absolutely obeys his orders, which is the best method of controlling the beast, which can make the demonic beast exert its greatest power.
Shen Teng appeared behind the demon dragon, and at the same time behind Dongfang Changqing, seeing that the latter looked like he was not angry and powerful, and he was sure to win, he felt a little bored, and said rudely: "Still pretending there, see how long you can pretend!" Shen Teng, who turned into a firebird, stretched out his wings, shook off the feathers on his body, and shot out like a dart, but the volume continued to grow in size in the process of moving forward, and it turned into a real firebird, pounced on the back of the demon dragon and pecked at its body.
The demon dragon suffered pain and summoned thunder and lightning to slash itself, only to get rid of the flock of firebirds, and black smoke also came out of his body, which was caused by lightning splitting. Shen Teng rushed forward again, it was still a simple trick of sclerosing the body protector and rushing forward in the form of a bird, but its power should not be underestimated, and the distance from the demon dragon was getting closer and closer, and the latter took off into the air and went higher.
The demon dragon is fierce and powerful, and after being injured by someone, it will only go crazy and don't know how to dodge, and it is the owner Dongfang Changqing who prompts it to temporarily avoid its peak. Dongfang Changqing held a knife in one hand and a burning black talisman in the other, and without saying a word, he controlled the demon dragon to the sky.
The biggest difference between man and beast is that beast has animal nature, and man may be afraid, fearful, and evasive when injured; once a beast is injured, especially a powerful beast, once injured, not only will it not be afraid but will go berserk, and will not give up until the murderer who hurts him is killed, so it is easy to fall into the trap.
This is also the fundamental reason why powerful demon beasts are always defeated in battles with human monks, beasts don't know how to escape, the more they hurt it, the more fierce it is, and the more they want to fight with you. Even if they are seriously injured, they do not know how to stop the bleeding in time and avoid the edge for the time being! When facing strong monks, they cannot be defeated, and in the face of a large number of weak monks, they will be consumed alive and dead, and their fate will be sad.
The unity of man and beast is a way to combine the wisdom of man with the ferocity of the beast, so that it will be extraordinarily powerful.
The demon dragon went to the sky and chose to avoid the edge for the time being. Shen Teng chased after him, his speed was very fast, and in the blink of an eye, he chased from the dragon's tail to half of his waist, and rushed into the clouds at this time, his vision was obscured by thick black clouds, he chose to give up, gave up and continued to chase and retreat under the clouds.
The magic dragon pierces through the clouds and mist, and its huge body is like a reality, with the ultimate beauty carefully crafted by the creator.
It raised its mouth and opened its mouth, and the ice crystals flew down from the sky, and in the summer of June, snow fell from the sky, and everyone's hearts were cold. This scene is beautiful and weird, only to see that thousands of miles of blue sky, only guarding the prince's mansion is covered with dark clouds, a magic dragon swims in the clouds, shuttles, when the blood mouth is violent, it rains down patches of snow, creating a strange scene of a little black cloud falling snow on a sunny day.
I don't know who suddenly said: "Flying snow in June, a bad omen!" If you think about it carefully, the warnings of the ancients really have some truth.
Frost fell from the sky, wetting Shen Teng's beautiful feathers, and Shen Teng, who turned into a firebird form, shuddered suddenly, and said, "Birds are afraid of cold, Uncle Ben can change into other forms, you stupid guy." ”
The Rakshasas are natural battle freaks, warlike and take pleasure in fighting, and because of their superior physical strength, most of the Rakshasas are characterized by arrogance. Shen Teng had to restrain his nature when he was burdened with a deep hatred of blood, otherwise he would be a hundred times more arrogant than now. Not only that, the more the Rakshasa people fight, the more excited they become, and in the end, they often can't control themselves and turn into battle maniacs.
Shen Teng flapped his wings and landed on the ground, his whole body curled up in a ball, turning into a snow-white polar bear and roaring wildly at the sky: "Roar, roar, see no! Look how strong Lao Tzu is!" So far, he has shown four variations, namely a firebird, a crow, a turtle and a polar bear.
The four forms are suitable for different combat environments, and the combination of petrification is simply seamless.
The magic dragon shuttles through the clouds, much larger than the polar bear, but everyone knows that it does not dare to fall and is frightened. The snow and ice continued to fall, extinguishing the embers left behind by the dragon's breath, and slowly covering the ground beneath his feet with a layer of frost.
The cold became more and more extreme, piercing the bone marrow, the fifty acres of the royal garden was covered with frost, and the soldiers all sneezed. As the cold intensified, Shangguan Hongri, who had been through a hundred battles, had a hint of foreboding, his injuries had not healed, and he reluctantly reminded in one breath: "General Shen, be careful, Dongfang Changqing must have a purpose in doing this!"
Before the words fell, a dazzling fire had already burned through the sky, melting all the wind and snow that had not yet completely fallen. Shen Teng's complexion changed, changing into the appearance of a turtle, using the petrification technique and the hard turtle shell to resist the scorching heat of the flames.
He was very casual, Long Yan swallowed on his body like a breeze, and said in a light tone: "It's just these two times, it's drizzling!"
When Shen Teng saw this scene, his triumphant expression suddenly turned cold, and he whispered: "Alternating between hot and cold, the stubborn stone is cracking! He was right, the heat of the fire and the cold of the freeze may not be enough to destroy a hard rock like granite, but the sudden alternation of high and low temperatures is enough to cause the inside of the rock to fission, so that it is damaged from the inside out.
Dongfang Changqing has a lot of experience in the battlefield, and after understanding the principle of Shen Teng's tricks, he quickly formulated a countermeasure. The surface is first frozen by wind and snow at low temperatures, and then scorched by scorching flames, alternating between hot and cold, and the rocks are also cracked.
Shen Teng, who was cowering in the turtle shell, suddenly felt a hot heat, and his hardening technique had already cracked.
"Dongfang Changqing, Lao Tzuri, your ancestor!" Shen Teng's loud curse was engulfed by the blazing dragon's breath, and his figure disappeared into the flames, his bones were gone, and it was unbearable to see. Everyone vaguely heard a heart-wrenching scream, and couldn't tell whether it was a hallucination or a reality.
The dragon's breath was spitted out, and all that remained above the ground was a pile of ashes. Everyone on the eldest prince's side sighed and couldn't bear to look at it directly.
"Could it be that I have really exhausted my qi, have I exhausted my qi?" the eldest prince was sad and couldn't cry.
Shangguan Hongri said, "Wait, wait! Look, look! Is there something over there?" ”
The eldest prince had no confidence at all, even if Shangguan Hong's tone was sincere, he only glanced at the ashes very reluctantly, this look didn't matter, but he found that the ashes left by the burning of Shen Teng's corpse opened a crack from the middle, and the outer edge of the ashes peeled off like an eggshell, and a phoenix roar erupted from its inside, resounding through the sky!
Dongfang Changqing stood on the dragon's head and looked down, but saw that the red light was radiating, and two giant wings spread out from the gray mass, as if they were about to take off.
"It's ......," he gasped.
"The phoenix is reborn from the ashes!" Shangguan Hongri was surprised and delighted, and said continuously: "Your Majesty, there is still salvation, there is still salvation, we haven't lost yet." ”
As he said, the phoenix was reborn from the ashes, resurrected from the dead, and became even stronger!
With a series of high-pitched chirps, a sword-axe-like light shone brightly, and a huge firebird broke out of its shell and soared straight into the sky.
"Come on, Dongfang Changqing!" The firebird was wrapped in a flame coat, and there was a layer of blood-red light wrapped in the flame coat, because the two were similar in color, so they couldn't be distinguished. The firebird's eyes had turned blood-red, and his pupils were filled with murderous aura. Shen Teng rushed straight into the sky, and suddenly he was overshadowed by a killing intent, and he was full of firepower. The phoenix is reborn from the fire, the process is not as gorgeous as it seems, but it is painful, and only he knows that the phoenix is a divine bird, and turning into a phoenix consumes the magic power in the body exactly, and in this form, the magic power in his body is losing a lot every minute and every second, and he needs to fight quickly.
The firebird swooped straight into the sky, vowing to return the favor to others in his own way, and to burn everything with blazing fire.
Dragons and sacred birds, twin creatures, will eventually see which one is stronger and which is weaker.
Dongfang Changqing first fought with Shangguan Hongri, and then forced Shen Teng, the first confidant of the eldest prince, into a desperate situation, and his strength was so strong that it was suffocating. In the battle that won Shangguan Hongri, he first used the true qi of the green dragon to defeat him, and then summoned the demon dragon to fight with the ghost baby released by Shangguan Hongri for hundreds of rounds, and finally eliminated the ghost baby; Finally, he absorbed the poisonous blood released after the tragic death of the ghost baby with the heroic demon body, and finally won.
In the face of Shen Teng, Dongfang Changqing was the first to fall into passivity, but he was good at seizing the opportunity, he was able to find the weak link of the opponent, and broke Shen Teng's petrified body with the tricks of ice and fire in one hand, and almost burned him to death.
Dongfang Changqing is indeed a great master, his strength lies in the ability to simulate the corresponding way of dealing with different enemies, which looks ingenious, but in fact requires a lot of experience.
Dongfang Changqing stood on the dragon's head, shuttling through the black clouds with the demon dragon, watching the radiant firebird pounce towards him, and realized that Shen Teng was going to fight to the death. When the opponent is bent on winning or losing with one move, he needs to drag, use the procrastination trick to make the enemy tired, and then take advantage of the situation to counterattack.
Dongfang Evergreen Burning Black Fu manipulated the demon dragon, which spewed black choking smoke from his nose, causing the smoke to gather more and more, obscuring everyone's vision.
The radiant firebird rushed and released a brilliant light to clear the black smoke, only to find that the demon dragon had already fled to a higher place, as if it was about to rush out of the universe.
"You shrunken turtle, will you run!" Shen Teng was about to catch up with him, but he heard Shangguan Hongri shouting below: "General Shen, first solve all the soldiers of the Praetorian Guard and force him to appear." ”
Shen Teng thought it was a good idea, turned around and turned back, and was about to take the Praetorian Guard soldiers under the knife. At this moment, the demon dragon swung its tail, and a thunderbolt fell from the sky, which was falling on Shen Teng's body.
"Ahhh
After the battle just now, his hardening technique failed, and he was no longer able to sacrifice spells to protect his whole body in a short period of time.
Correspondingly, Shen Teng released the power of the Rakshasa clan, and his body function was improved a hundredfold, and with the divine power of the phoenix, he had a different strength.
The phoenix is one of the three sacred birds and follows a strange law of growth.
