Chapter 233: The Death of the Chen Family Patriarch
Rhinoceros Island.
Zhou Yang was originally resting at the foot of the fifth-level Lingshan Mountain.
In the past two days, he followed Cao Wenjin's orders and rode the griffin beast all over the oasis to clean up the surviving third-level monsters. He didn't come back to rest until yesterday.
Because he was so close, he could clearly hear Cao Wenjin's alarming warning voice.
It was only after he saw Cao Wenjin leaving in the clouds that he truly realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Come on, let's spread out and escape!"
He came back to his senses and quickly shouted at Huang Yi, who was still stunned by Cao Wenjin's words. Then he released his flying sword and fled in the completely opposite direction to where Cao Wenjin left.
However, he had just flown less than thirty miles with his sword when he saw a golden light appearing in the distance above the fifth-level spiritual mountain, revealing a golden giant eagle with a wingspan of tens of feet.
"Gold-winged Lei Peng!"
Because he had been attacked by two fourth-order golden-winged Lei Peng in the Chihu Mountain Oasis, when Zhou Yang saw the golden giant eagle, he recognized the opponent's legs at the first sight, and then his face suddenly changed.
It became extremely ugly.
Monsters like the Golden-winged Lei Peng are already much stronger than monsters of the same level, and a Golden-winged Lei Peng with strength as high as the fifth-level high-grade is when Huang Shamen and two Jindan-stage monks are in charge.
, and cannot afford to offend such beings.
In fact, Zhou Yang was not the only one to recognize the Golden Winged Lei Peng.
At this time, except for Cao Wenjin who took the first step, none of the other monks nearby, including those Zifu monks who survived, had not escaped a hundred miles away.
And with the huge size of the fifth-level high-grade golden-winged Lei Peng, its appearance can be clearly seen from hundreds of miles away.
Jin Peng ignored the gazes of the human monks who were like ants in its eyes. After it appeared, it just glanced at the human monks all over the mountain and almost understood what was going on.
It has extraordinary abilities and has been cultivating beside a powerful demon king for a long time. Not only has it refined the "Henggu" to be able to speak human words, but it is also not completely ignorant of the situation in the boundless sand sea and the world of immortality.
Huang Shamen has established a sect in the world of Immortal Cultivation in the Boundless Sand Sea for thousands of years, and has been the overlord of the Boundless Sand Sea for more than a thousand years. Jin Peng certainly knows about the existence of this sect.
What's more, it knows that there are absolutely no Yuanying Stage monks in this sect, and it has never heard of any Yuanying Stage monks saying that they would accept Huang Shamen as a vassal.
In this case, there is nothing to be afraid of.
I saw a flash of murderous intent in its eyes, and it flapped its wings violently. Suddenly, thousands of thunders fell like rain on all the human monks within dozens of miles around.
Then its figure moved and instantly appeared behind Li Zhengnan, the ninth-level monk of the Purple Mansion. With a wave of its talons, it picked up Li Zhengnan, who had just taken out the magic weapon for protection, and threw it into its mouth like an eagle catching a chicken.
He immediately ate Li Zhengnan alive!
It is nothing new for monsters to eat people, but for a ninth-level cultivator from the Purple Mansion to be eaten by a monster without any resistance like a little chicken, it is a bit scary!
Especially those surviving Zifu period monks, every one of them was almost frightened to death after seeing this scene!
Li Zhengnan was the person with the highest cultivation level among them. A few days ago, he teamed up with the ancestor of the Chen family, who was also at the ninth level of the Purple Mansion, to fight against a fifth-level monster for several hours.
Such a powerful person was swallowed up by the golden-winged Lei Peng. What should those of them who are not as good as him do?
Run away, run away!
Several Zifu monks were horrified and immediately tried their best to escape with their lives.
It's just that although their escape speed is not slow, compared with Jin Peng's speed, it is still very different.
There was a flash of lightning, and Jin Peng, who had just eaten Li Zhengnan, once again appeared behind the ancestor of the Chen family who was also at the ninth level of the Zi Mansion through his innate "Thunder Escape Technique" magical power.
The ancestor of the Chen family had learned from Li Zhengnan's previous mistakes. When he was escaping for his life, he activated a fourth-level mid-grade defensive talisman to protect himself, and at the same time, he also sacrificed two fourth-level defensive magic weapons that he had refined.
Unfortunately, all of these are of no use!
The difference between the ninth level of Zifu and the ninth level of Jindan is even greater than the difference between the Qi training stage and the Zifu stage. If these protective measures of the Chen family ancestor are used to defend against fifth-level low-grade monsters like the "Golden Horned Rhinoceros"
The attack may be enough, but for Jinpeng, it is far from enough.
It tore forward with an eagle claw flashing with lightning, and the three layers of protection put up by the ancestor of the Chen family were all broken in the blink of an eye. Then he only felt a pain in his back, and his body was pierced by the sharp eagle claws and grabbed him.
It was thrown towards the wide-open eagle's beak.
"Am I going to die?"
The ancestor of the Chen family stared at the sky with wide eyes. There was no unwillingness in his eyes, only confusion.
After Cao Wenjin told the story of the expedition to Rhinoceros Island, he was actually mentally prepared to die here.
Even before setting off, he left a suicide note and stored it in Huangshamen, making various arrangements for what would happen after his death.
But what he never expected was that he did not die at the hands of the fifth-level monster "Golden Horned Rhinoceros" or Cao Wenjin, but at the hands of a golden-winged Lei Peng who appeared out of nowhere, and
Was eaten alive!
"This scent of alchemy... Hey, are you an alchemist? And it seems that the level of alchemy is not low?"
Just when the ancestor of the Chen family thought that he would follow in the footsteps of Li Zhengnan and die, the wide-open eagle's beak suddenly closed in advance, and then a startling sound came from the eagle's beak into his ears.
Hearing this exclamation, the ancestor of the Chen family was stunned for a moment, then his expression suddenly changed as if he remembered something, and he immediately reversed the magic power and entered it into his brain, preparing to destroy his soul.
How could he escape the eyes of Jin Peng with his actions like this? When the big roc saw this, he couldn't help laughing loudly and said: "Gah ga ga, it's not easy to die, I will make it happen for you!"
Before he finished speaking, the head of the ancestor of the Chen family separated from his body.
However, after killing the ancestor of the Chen family, Jin Peng did not rush to eat his body. Instead, he suddenly opened his mouth and spit out a black jade bottle magic weapon.
As soon as the black jade bottle magic weapon came out, it released a black spiritual light under the urging of Jin Peng's mana and rolled towards the head of the ancestor of the Chen family, and then an illusory figure was pulled out from the head of the ancestor of the Chen family by the black spiritual light.
He was forcefully dragged into the jade bottle.
Seeing this, Jin Peng immediately opened his mouth and swallowed the jade bottle again, then looked at the corpse of the ancestor of the Chen family in his claws and said happily:
"My king had the foresight to specially use [Xuanyin Soul Jade] to refine the [Soul Capturing Bottle] as a magical weapon and give it to us. Otherwise, before we became the demon king, we monsters would have really tried to pull the souls of human monks out of their bodies.
Not easy!”
"When I bring the soul of this human alchemist back to the Fire Scale King, the Fire Scale King will probably give me a few more [Ling Qi Ling Pills] when he is happy!"
The sixth-level demon king can transform into a human form, and can refine elixirs, weapons, and formations like human monks.
However, advanced alchemy and weapon refining inheritance are all in the hands of great human forces. It is extremely difficult for human immortal cultivators to learn, let alone aliens like them?
Therefore, if these demon kings want to learn this knowledge, they can only take unconventional ways.
Kidnapping and hunting high-level human alchemists and weapon refiners are the most common methods used by demon kings.
They captured the human alchemists and weapon refiners back to the cave, and either coerced or induced them to teach them how to refine alchemy and weapon refining.
If the human monks refused to submit, they would use the "soul-searching gun" to search for their souls, using this brutal and bloody method to master these human skills.
At the beginning, the human monks did not know this, but they did learn a lot.
After the methods of the demon kings were exposed later, the human monks became vigilant and prepared for this.
For example, those sects and big families will strictly keep the whereabouts of high-level alchemists and weapon refiners in their power secret; secondly, they will place restrictions on the souls of these people to prevent them from being soul-searched; and thirdly, they will make them sign contracts.
For high-level "Netherworld Blood Contract", it is strictly forbidden to reveal any high-level skills, alchemy, and weapon refining methods learned from the sect.
Under the protection of these three methods, even if the sixth-level demon king catches those high-level alchemists and weapon refiners who come from powerful forces, they will not be able to get much useful things from them.
And family heads like some high-level alchemists, weapon refiners in casual cultivation, and the ancestors of the Chen family, without the help of Nascent Soul monks to help arrange the soul restrictions, can only fall into the hands of the demon kings.
Destroy your soul before taking it into your hands to prevent yourself from falling into the hands of the demon king and being searched for his soul.
Previously, when the ancestor of the Chen family heard Jin Peng's screams, he thought of this, and that's why he wanted to destroy his soul.
Unfortunately, his movements were still a bit slow, and he never expected that Jin Peng, a fifth-level monster, would actually refine a magic weapon that could extract the soul of a monk.
Kill people, drain souls!
It also took Jinpeng a little time to do these two things.
As a result, the remaining Zifu monks had all fled a hundred or two hundred miles away, and Cao Wenjin, who was the first to flee, had already escaped its sensing range.
"Well, we can't waste any more time with these low-level monks. Otherwise, if the golden elixir monk really leaves, it will be difficult to deal with the Fire Scale King back!"
Thinking of this, Jin Peng immediately threw the body of the ancestor of the Chen family into his mouth and swallowed it, then flapped his wings and turned into a golden light and chased after Cao Wenjin in the direction of escape.
From the time when the golden-winged Lei Peng appeared to when he chased Cao Wenjin away, less than a quarter of an hour passed.
As someone who had witnessed all this with his own eyes, Zhou Yang felt so complicated at this moment that most people would find it absolutely unbelievable.
"The ancestor of the Chen family died like this!"
He stared blankly at the direction where Golden-winged Lei Peng left, with an indescribably complicated expression on his face.
He never imagined that the ancestor of the Chen family, who had repeatedly tried to kill him, would die in such a humiliating way!
Although he could be said to be an enemy, when he saw the ancestor of the Chen family die in such an aggrieved manner at the claws of a monster beast, not only did he not feel any pleasure, but he felt sad for it.
The dignified ninth-level cultivator of the Purple Mansion, who is considered a person of certain status in any world of immortality, was crushed to death by a monster beast with one claw. After his death, his soul was taken away and his body was eaten. This
How sad!
Then he looked at the corpses on the ground around him.
Those corpses were all foundation-building monks like him when they were alive. When the golden-winged Lei Peng flapped its wings and released thousands of thunder attacks, these people were all killed on the ground without any resistance.
And he was able to survive not because he was not attacked, but because he promptly activated a fourth-level defensive talisman that he had originally exchanged from Jiang Yuyan.
There were originally hundreds of foundation-building monks gathered here, but now, Zhou Yang looked around and saw that the number of monks who could stand up after the golden-winged Lei Peng left was less than two palms away.
