A few months later, it was one early morning in Jilinkong.
Three strange birds suddenly jumped out of the black mist at the edge of the earth and landed on a reddish-brown Gobi wasteland. They frightened a jackal monster that was devouring carrion and fled in a hurry.
Immediately, three figures jumped off the three strange birds respectively, and they were none other than Luo Hong!
"We finally left the Greyscale Islands and came to the Brown Valley Continent."
Looking at the endless land in front of her, Zi Ling couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She had not had an easy time these past few months.
Although Luo Hong and Zhu Yan are there to protect them, most of the monsters in the Scaled Sky Realm have little intelligence, and they often stay in groups. Because of their insufficient cultivation, they do not have decent beast cores in their bodies.
Therefore, Luo Hong usually didn't waste time stopping to clean them up, which resulted in the three of them spending half of the time being chased by various beasts.
Luo Hong and Zhu Yan are so powerful that they naturally don't feel anything, but Zi Ling can always feel the threat, so much so that they are now physically and mentally exhausted.
Compared to the Gray Scale Islands, the space pressure on the Brown Valley Continent is ten times stronger. If Zi Ling had not refined the bottle of Dragon Scale Pill given to her by Luo Hong in the past few months, I am afraid that it would have been
Unable to move.
However, Luo Hong and Zhu Yan only adapted for a moment before their bodies got used to the sudden increase in pressure, and no abnormalities could be seen while walking.
"Here, it's all thanks to you this time."
After arriving on the mainland, the three-headed strange birds that were previously captured were no longer of use. Luo Hong lifted the spell on their souls with a thought.
Just when they were in a daze, Luo Hong took out another three blood-red pills from his backpack.
This is a Blood Zhi Pill specially used to cultivate high-level spiritual beasts. To these three strange birds with average cultivation level, it is no different from a magical elixir.
As soon as they smelled the fragrance of the medicine, the three birds immediately opened their mouths and swallowed the medicine instinctively. Immediately, the energy and blood in their bodies began to surge, and their breath increased rapidly!
Luo Hong did not wait for the three strange birds to finish refining the medicine, but immediately let Zhu Yan lead the way and started heading inland.
However, the three of them had only been walking for half a day when they heard bursts of roaring coming from the barren basin ahead, as if something huge was hitting the earth.
Looking at Zhu Yan's gaze, Luo Hong just thought for a moment and nodded towards him.
After all, whether it's the monsters causing trouble in the basin or the monks here, it's worth Luo Hong's visit.
The former allows him to obtain a high-level beast core, and the latter allows him to start his next plan.
After burning incense, the three of them came to the edge of the basin and looked down at the same time.
They saw that the situation in this basin was far more complicated than they expected. There was not only a magical beast exuding Taiyi level Xuan Dao aura, but also four monks who clearly belonged to two sides!
Judging from this posture, one of the parties should be hunting the Taiyi Warcraft, and as a result, the other party was attracted, resulting in the current melee.
"What a scaly earth dragon. Not only is this beast extremely powerful, but it also has the ability to burrow into the ground. It is also cruel and cunning in nature, so it is not easy to deal with!"
Zhu Yan couldn't help frowning as he looked at the earthworm-like monster, which was covered in thick reddish-brown scales and was over a hundred feet long.
If he were to make his own decision, Zhu Yan would not provoke this scaly earth dragon. Although he was strong enough to defeat this giant beast, it would be difficult to kill it.
And as long as they fail to kill them, they will not be able to live in peace for the rest of their journey, and they will have to pay attention to their steps at all times.
"I didn't expect to encounter the monks from Xuancheng and Puppet City at the same time. We don't have to rush to take action. Let's see what methods they have."
At the same time, Luo Hong was more interested in the four monks fighting around the scale-armored earth dragon. As the saying goes, only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you survive a hundred battles. This is obviously a rare opportunity.
Although they were only dozens of miles away from the battlefield, the sudden increase in space pressure on the Brown Valley Continent further suppressed the spiritual consciousness of the monks.
Luo Hong's Daluo Yuanshen can currently detect movements within two hundred miles. It would be very good if these four Taiyi monks can detect movements within twenty miles.
Therefore, Luo Hong was not worried that they would be discovered easily. He found a relatively clean stone and sat down cross-legged.
Seeing this, Zhu Yan and Zi Ling had no other opinions, so they sat cross-legged next to Luo Hong.
In the basin, the melee has intensified. Currently, the two naked men with dense gray scales on their bodies have gradually fallen into a disadvantage.
This is mainly because their opponents are two humanoid puppets made of unknown materials, and they do not exude the breath of flesh and blood.
Therefore, the scale-armored earth dragon's offensive will take more care of the two of them.
As for the owners of these two puppets, they were all hidden in the dark. Although Luo Hong could sense their positions, he could not see through their figures.
The battles between the three parties were all close combat, and each blow was so powerful that if it were outside, it would have caused the sky to collapse.
But in this Jiling Sky Realm, it just makes the basin and its surroundings feel like an earthquake.
As he continued to observe, Luo Hong discovered that the two gray-scale monks had extremely rich fighting experience, and whenever they encountered danger, they could deal with it in a way that made Luo Hong's eyes shine.
However, the bodies of the two puppets were extremely strong, and even after suffering several heavy blows, they did not suffer from any malfunction.
Moreover, at this point in the fierce battle, the auras of the two gray-scale monks were no longer at their peak, but the two puppets were still fierce, making it increasingly difficult for the two of them to deal with them.
Obviously, if this consumption continues, they will all be killed.
So, after a moment of eye contact, dozens of orifices on their right arms lit up at the same time.
Immediately, they formed swords with their palms together, and thrust out their right arms like lightning, piercing the chest of the puppet in front of them.
With one grab and another, they took out a bunch of bits and pieces from the chests of the two puppets, which immediately greatly affected the actions of the two puppets.
However, they know the puppets in Puppet City quite well and know that this can only severely damage them temporarily. It won't be long before their internal structure will change on their own and their full mobility will be restored. This will only reduce their strength at most.
As a result, the two men immediately waved their right arms that they had just drawn out and slashed at the heads of the two puppets as fast as they could.
After two "bang bangs", the heads of the two puppets exploded, and the messy parts scattered everywhere.
The whole process is just as easy as the rabbit rising and the falcon falling. However, such a method of instantly killing powerful enemies is obviously not something that can be used casually.
Just as the orifices on their right arms returned to normal brightness, their bodies dried up at a speed visible to the naked eye, obviously consuming a lot of blood and essence.
This also caused their Xuan Dao aura to suddenly drop a bit.
At this moment, two tiny sounds of piercing the air were heard, and two tiny golden lights were seen shooting out from an uninhabited place, striking directly between the two people's eyebrows.
Although the two gray-scale monks tried their best to dodge, one of them was because the speed of the golden light was too fast, and the other was because they had just entered the state of backlash from the secret technique and were not able to adapt to this weakness, so their body's reaction was affected.
Realizing that they had no escape, the two gray-scale monks couldn't help but show a look of despair on their faces. After all, they knew very well what those two golden lights were.
However, the next moment, the tingling feeling did not come as expected. Instead, there were two unfamiliar breaths beside him.
"It turns out that people in Puppet City like to play this kind of dirty trick."
Luo Hong and Zhu Yan immediately appeared in front of the two gray-scale monks, each holding a slender golden needle in their hands.
It turned out that Luo Hong had predicted what would happen next when the two broke out and destroyed the puppet.
And he was determined to join Xuancheng, so these two gray-scale monks who could lead the way naturally couldn't die.
Therefore, it was only natural that he and Zhu Yan took action to save these two people.
"Let's go separately!"
A voice suddenly came from the deserted place, and then two monks wearing white hooded robes suddenly appeared and immediately ran out in different directions.
Before leaving, they all threw out a handful of fire thunder to irritate the scaly earth dragon.
Storage bags cannot be used in the Sky Realm of Scales, so as long as there are no other puppets around them, there really aren't any.
Xuancheng's side obviously had two more reinforcements. It was obviously not a wise move to fight two against four, so a decisive retreat became an inevitable choice.
But their work was actually in vain, after all, Luo Hong didn't want to bother chasing them.
When he goes to Xuancheng, he doesn't need to submit any certificate of surrender.
"Who are you?!"
The two gray-scale monks did not relax their vigilance because Luo Hong and Zhu Yan saved them, and immediately retreated and questioned.
"Fellow Taoists, now is not the time to talk. Let us deal with this scale-armored earth dragon first."
After saying that, Luo Hong winked at Zhu Yan.
Zhu Yan understood and flew forward to kick away the body of the scale-armored earth dragon. Then he held a flaming sword and slashed violently at it.
As a result of using all his strength, Zhu Yan's whole body immediately lit up with a total of 360 mysterious orifices, which made the two gray-scale monks stunned.
After all, they have never heard of people like Zhu Yan in the Sky Realm of Scales!
Under the suppression of absolute strength, the scale-armored earth dragon was quickly slashed by Zhu Yan with huge wounds all over his body, and red beast blood flowed all over the ground.
The feeling of weakness in the body immediately made the giant beast want to retreat, and its head plunged down, ready to burrow into the ground.
Zhu Yan wanted to stop it, but this scaly earth dragon had rough skin and thick flesh, and it was not something he could seriously injure in a short period of time.
Moreover, the scale-armored earth dragon burrowed into the ground very fast. Zhu Yan only had time to slash out with his sword before half of his body was already on the ground.
Fortunately, Luo Hong moved at this time, and he jumped into a pothole, all the mysterious apertures on his body lit up, and black lightning danced on his raised arms.
Immediately afterwards, with a "thud" sound, Luo Hong punched the ground hard, but it did not cause much damage, but instead stirred up a circle of black lightning.
"Boom!"
This time the left fist hit, and a circle of black lightning was also created.
Immediately, the sound of "dong dong" sounded at a fixed frequency, as if Luo Hong was using the earth as a drum and beating non-stop!
Finally, after hitting it thirty-six times, Luo Hong suddenly gathered enough strength and hit the ground with both fists.
After hitting it this time, Luo Hong did not raise his fists again, nor did he stir up new lightning. Instead, after brewing for a moment, he shouted with a ferocious expression:
"rise!"
In an instant, all the thirty-six black thunder lights that had been stirred up before were gathered back, and at the same time, a giant beast of 100 feet was pulled out of the ground.
Among the countless splashing earth and stones, Zhu Yan immediately raised his knife and slashed at the still somewhat dazed scale-armored earth dragon, causing him to suffer a big loss in one fell swoop.
Then, knowing that he could not escape, the scale-armored earth dragon became ferocious and roared at Zhu Yan with all his strength.
But the gap in strength is there, and it can't be smoothed out by him calling twice.
So, after burning most of the incense, the beast fell powerlessly to the ground like an overturned giant pillar.
Zhu Yan's whole body was covered in blood. He stepped forward and slashed twice with his knife. Then he dug half of his body into the wound of the scaly earth dragon and took out a red beast core the size of a child's fist!
Immediately, he jumped back to Luo Hong and threw the beast core in his hand over without hesitation.
Luo Hong took the beast core and was not in a hurry to refine it. After casually putting it into his backpack, he looked at the two gray scale monks and said with a smile:
"Two fellow Taoists, if you have anything you want to ask now, feel free to ask.
But please also answer a few questions for us after we answer them."
After hearing this, the two gray-scale monks looked at each other, and finally the slightly older one cupped his hands and said:
"My Excellency, Xu Yinglong, thank you both for your help earlier. You must not be monks in the Jiling Sky Realm, right?"
"That's right, we were just exiled by the Yeyang Dynasty, and there is one of our companions over there.
How did fellow Taoist see it?"
Luo Hong nodded and replied.
"This Taoist friend's cultivation has reached the Xuandao Heavenly Pass. Such strength cannot be achieved by an unknown person, whether in our Xuancheng or in Puppet City!
My Excellency Xu Yinghu, can I know the name of my close friend?"
The younger gray-scaled monk showed admiration and cupped his hands towards Zhuyan.
"My name is Zhu Yan."
Zhu Yan replied coldly.
"Two fellow Taoists, since you were willing to help before, you should have known some of the situation in the Jilin Sky Realm in advance, but are you interested in joining Xuancheng?"
Xu Yinglong asked with a slightly excited tone.
"Luo Mou and Brother Zhu are both Xuan cultivators, so naturally they want to join Xuan City, but they just don't know what the rules are?"
Luo Hong asked immediately after answering.
"In addition to the main city, our Xuancheng has four subsidiary cities, namely Qingyang City, Tongyu City, Xuanzhi City and Baiyan City.
Each subsidiary city has a city lord, and all of them obey the orders of Lord Eva, the lord of the main city.
My brother and I are the bodyguards of the city lord of White Rock City. If you two are willing to join, you can immediately obtain the same position.
There is only one rule, and that is that once you enter Xuancheng, you must not betray!"
