Chapter 178: Fishing with iron ropes and eating dragons with mayflies
While the Nanke Cyclops were constantly devouring the essence of the Mirage Dragon, the six Taoist priests outside the Dragon Palace formation also became panicked.
They stared at the mirage dragon whose corpse energy and essence kept falling, and their hearts were bleeding.
"Ha! What's going on!" A Taoist priest was furious when he hammered the formation, looking as if he wanted to directly break through the formation and then capture the mirage dragon below.
However, when Xu Dao completely activated the Dragon Blood Transformation Array, the entire formation continuously absorbed the spiritual energy from the Sheshan Spirit Vein. The formation effect was fully opened, and it was not easily defeated by Taoist priests in the foundation-building realm.
Even if the Taoist priest of the Hammer Formation breaks through the formation barrier, it dares not enter the formation easily. Because it has sensed a strong sense of crisis from the surging formation.
Not only that, but the other five Taoist priests who gave the imperial edict were also like this. They all looked at the formation with fear, looking at me, and I looked at you, but none of them were willing to use their best to enter the formation to explore the situation.
Taoist Linghu stayed aside. It was originally very happy to eat, but at this time he saw something suddenly happening in the Dragon Palace, and the six Taoist priests of Shezhao were all a little restrained.
Taoist Linghu was confused and couldn't help but speak:
"Even if this formation is very powerful, can it still resist the joint efforts of the six fellow Taoists? If it doesn't work, I will try it with me."
A toad Taoist priest next to him heard it, but his throat was gurgling and he exclaimed in a muffled voice: "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Linghu, thank you for your kindness."
"But fellow Taoists don't know that this formation is really powerful! According to records, this formation is like a cage. Even if a foundation-building monster falls into it, it will not be necessary to escape. If someone controls the formation, or even the foundation-building monsters, there is a possibility that they will be refined alive."
Another centipede Taoist priest heard it, and his tentacles were shaking, and responded: "That's right. Although this formation is now broken, it is difficult to guarantee that its effectiveness has not been lost. Look! Even the vitality of the mirage dragon can be easily absorbed by the formation, and the danger inside must be quite large."
Taoist Linghu heard the answers of the two Taoist priests beside him, and completely put away his originally somewhat contemptuous and underestimated mentality.
It secretly used its spiritual consciousness to incite magic power to break through the barrier of the formation and enter the Dragon Palace to explore. However, when it barely delivered its spiritual consciousness, a vicious aura rolled, and immediately blew away its spiritual consciousness without any trace or sensing.
"It's true!" This also changed the face of Taoist Linghu immediately.
Originally, it was also thinking of using secret techniques to show a wave of profound Taoist techniques of the White Bone View to help the six Taoist priests of Shezhao. However, when encountering this situation, the little bit in Taoist priest Linghu's heart completely disappeared.
As soon as it bowed, it instantly wandered nearly twenty or thirty feet away from the Dragon Palace formation, and then bowed and said, "Fellow Taoists, please, I am just a little unfamiliar with my knowledge, so I will not show off my ugly behavior."
The spiritual consciousness of several Taoist priests of Shezhao swept through Taoist priest Linghu one by one, all with a little surprise and sarcasm, but Taoist priest Linghu did not blush and had no intention of getting to the front again.
After all, it is completely unclear about what is going on under the Dragon Palace, so why bother with trouble for a few Taoist priests who gave up their imperial edicts?
You should know that after it entered its spiritual consciousness, its heart twitched slightly, indicating that there must be a great crisis in the Dragon Palace.
The six spiritual consciousnesses separated from Taoist Linghu and were tangled into a ball outside the Dragon Palace formation. The Taoist Shezhao communicated at the speed of lightning and flashing, and could convey more than a thousand words in an instant.
Such communication efficiency is far better than that of mortals and Taoist disciples. This is another manifestation of the extraordinary extraordinary nature of the foundation-building Taoist priests. Of course, this method cannot be easily done.
In less than a dozen breaths, the six Taoist priests of Shezhao took back their spiritual senses and nodded to each other.
At the same time, a Taoist priest called out to Taoist Linghu: "This place is no longer safe. Please let fellow Taoists take a few steps first. Why not go back to Sheshan Taoist Mansion and wait for my six people to go back?"
Hearing this, Taoist Linghu wanted to answer with shamelessness: It is not afraid of danger, it can rush around the formation. But immediately, it felt like it was locked by several spiritual consciousnesses.
And unlike just now, these spiritual senses not only sarcastically, but also show a cold feeling. They wandered on it, as if someone was licking its whole body with his tongue.
"Damn it! These cowards!" Taoist priest Linghu immediately cursed in his heart, knowing that the six Taoist priests of Shezhao did not welcome it, and directly issued an order to expel guests, which also meant to be threatening.
Seeing the other party's attitude, Taoist Linghu felt regretful again and thought that he might not have been too timid just now, but should have chosen to pretend to face the difficulties. In this way, the six Taoist priests of Shezhao might not directly choose to expel it.
The reason why Taoist Linghu regretted was not that he felt embarrassed or was consciously despised by others, but that although there were risks in the future, there were likely to be great benefits, so the six Taoist priests suddenly changed their faces and wanted to drive it away directly.
The Taoist priest's eyes turned several times, but after all, he still had a fox face open. He forced a smile and said to several Taoist priests:
"It's great. Since that's the case, I won't disturb you fellow Taoists from working hard, let's take a step first."
After saying that, it swam slowly over the lake, and its speed was not slow, just like oil on the soles of its feet.
The spiritual sense of several Taoist priests of Shezhao also followed it firmly until the spiritual sense was untraceable and their eyes could not see the figure of Taoist priest Linghu, they retracted their gaze and turned to stare at the body of the mirage dragon in the Dragon Palace.
"The formation has changed a little. It may be a secret trick left by the person who arranged the formation in advance. We will quickly catch it while the Mirage Dragon has not yet suffered irreparable losses."
"But! If you delay for a moment, a hundred years of hard work will be wasted."
Six Taoist priests reached a consensus that they were lying outside the formation of the Dragon Palace, with their faces squeezed at the boundary of the formation, making the corners of their mouths drool and distorted.
boom!
Their bodies, several feet tall, swayed, and six powerful magic pillars rose from their bodies, penetrated the lake water, and connected them to their long-standing backhand.
Then a clamor sounded.
The ground swayed slightly, and there were about a dozen thick black iron chains that penetrated the soil and hang down from above the lake water and entered the lake water. Because the rushing momentum was too rapid, it splashed a lot of waves.
The faint metallic luster reflects from the black iron chains. If someone takes a closer look, he will find that these chains are formed from the iron chain bridges originally bound on both sides of the Wuxia River. Their roots are swaying in the lake, appearing sonorous and powerful and indestructible.
Click! The black iron chains twisted into a ball, landing on the Dragon Palace like an anchor, bombarding the originally tough Dragon Palace formation out of a crack.
It hit the dragon blood-changing array one after another, as if it was knocking on a hard eggshell.
The six Taoist priests of Shezhao kept swimming around the iron chain, and the strong demonic energy wrapped the iron chain, and their qi and blood were exerting their terrifying magic power.
Buzz!
The movements that appeared on the Dragon Palace formation were also transmitted to the iron tower.
Xu Dao was immersed in the process of driving the insects to devour the essence of the Mirage Dragon. He stared at the ants king in his hand and the ants around him constantly undergoing earth-shaking changes, and was very happy.
However, the movement outside the formation made him unable to immerse himself in his practice, so he had to use one mind and pay attention to the changes in the Dragon Palace.
Through the panoramic view of the Dragon Palace, he quickly saw clearly the actions of the Taoist priests of Shezhao and what the intentions of these people were.
He saw six Taoist priests exerting their might, stirring up the waters of the entire dark lake, and making him uneasy.
"I want to compete with me for the benefits." He sneered in his heart.
If he was outside and saw this scene in front of him, he would not talk about the six Taoist priests who were the ones, even if he was just one of them, he would hide as far as he could.
But it is different now. He is in the Dragon Palace Formation Hub, with formations as a support and the Sheshan Dragon Vein as a source of power, but he does not have to be afraid of the foundation-building Taoist priest for the time being.
Xu Dao narrowed his eyes and immediately penetrated a magic power into the iron wall of the secret room, activate the formation pattern above.
Huh! Runes twisted on the iron wall, and surging spiritual energy was drawn out of the spiritual veins by the formation. While squeezing the essence of the Mirage Dragon even more crazily, he also tried his best to resist the attacks of the Taoist priests of Shezhao, regardless of expenses or losses.
In the iron tower, the Nanke Cyclops change faster, which is a thousand miles a day.
The Ant King's body bulged like a balloon. The two sharp corners on its head were even more prominent, and the whole body was full of demonic energy, and its body changed in a slender direction.
In just a few dozen breaths, the temperament of the Ant King of the Celestial King changed completely, and even it showed an aura that made Xu Dao feel oppressive.
"Transforming the dragon!" Xu Dao looked at the change and saw constant surprises.
The other snails around were also heading straight towards the direction of the dragon transformation, but the speed and level were far inferior to the Ant King.
For a moment, Xu Dao began to feel regret in his heart.
"If I had known that there would be such a good opportunity now, I could swallow the essence of the Mirage Dragon, and the more I swallow, the more benefits I would be. I should raise more veins instead of just keeping these Qi-refining veins... Otherwise, the number of mouths that can swallow the essence of the Mirage Dragon can be increased by ten times or even dozens of times!"
If he had millions of worms in his hand, he would probably be sure to squeeze out the essence of the Mirage Dragon and let all the century-old plans of the Taoist priests of Shezhao turn into flowing water.
"continue!"
Since he was in a hurry and could not open his mouth a few more, Xu Dao naturally could only hurry up and let the insects eat the qi and turn them into dragons without wasting a great opportunity.
……………………
Click! A huge sound of shattering sounds.
On the other side, after a hundred breaths of stalemate, because the dragon blood-transformation array was broken, the formation barrier could not be resisted by the six Taoist priests of Shezhao. The chains transformed from the iron chain bridge broke through the barrier and extended into the Dragon Palace.
"Hahaha!" In the lake, the Taoist priests made a huge roar, and their laughter rolled, and they were arrogant and proud.
Crash!
The sound of the black iron chains rolling sounded, and more than a dozen chains forked again and fell to various positions on the head of the Mirage Dragon. Then they poked directly into the Mirage Dragon's corpse like a needle, and condensed into a stream again, trying to drag the huge Mirage Dragon's body up.
The Taoist priests' great joy came again outside the formation: "The big fish is caught!"
"Everyone can work harder!"
A huge force was transmitted through the iron chain, and the corpse of the Mirage Dragon weighing countless tens of thousands of pounds was hooked up and pulled out of the formation one by one.
Although its speed was slow, it did not stop for a quarter of an hour.
Seeing that the essence of the Mirage Dragon was still passing by in vain, the six Taoist priests of Shezhao were even more rapid. They frantically mobilized their magic power and wanted to drag the Mirage Dragon out of the Dragon Palace as soon as possible to prevent the essence, corpse qi and corpse qi from being absorbed by the blood-transformed dragon formation.
Because in these hundreds of breaths, the energy level of the mirage dragon's body fell a lot again, and almost lost 10% of it.
Although 10% of the number seems to be very small, you should know that this mirage dragon has been raised by the Taoist priests of Shezhao for two or three hundred years.
One of these is the hard accumulation of twenty or thirty years.
While the Taoists were fishing for dragons, the energy gathered in the Dragon Palace iron tower was also increasing.
The Secret Room is worthy of being called a blood pool. The horned ant king in Xu Dao's hand is already a stellar figure and has initially seen the appearance of a dragon species.
The huge amount of energy rolled around in the secret room, which made him really envious and wanted to suck the energy in it, but at the same time, he was also frightened.
Because the corpse gas around him was so sticky that it was black, if he hadn't taken out the veil banner in time just now and wrapped around his body, he would have been under the erosion of the corpse gas, and his body might have been destroyed.
At such a tense moment, Xu Dao had no time to worry about too much except urging the formation to continuously squeeze the essence of the Mirage Dragon.
And for the six Taoist priests of Shezhao, their struggle finally came to fruition.
The Mirage Dragon was fished up, and its head had touched the edge of the Dragon Palace Formation. Because of the independent effect of the corpse energy and granulation on its body, the barrier of the Dragon Palace Formation was pierced like paper.
The entire Mirage Dragon began to squeeze out the Dragon Palace, and its head had slowly stretched out. However, just as the Taoist priests of Shezhao were about to be happy, a buzzing sound appeared in the Dragon Palace.
A shocking demonic energy suddenly entered the Taoist priests' perception from below. They looked down and shouted: "There is demonic energy!"
Buzz!
One by one, the extremely ferocious and weird insects rushed out of the iron tower, fell onto the mirage dragon, and began to eat the flesh and blood.
The insects have long bodies, transparent wings on their backs, and six legs on their abdomen. They look like fat monster snakes with wings, and there are two protruding above their heads.
Chapter completed!
