Ling Pengxing's Journey into Serpent Dragon Lake

The Demon Beast that dwell in that sacred mountain are python-type Demon Beast that are relatively common in the Serpent Dragon Lake area.

The Demon Serpent had blue scales and numbered nearly a hundred.

Although there was a Foundation Establishment Python King among them, its Foundation Establishment level was only at the Early-Stage Foundation Establishment.

The other Demon Serpent were all only at the Qi Training Stage.

Upon observing the situation of the Demon Beast within the high mountains, Ling Pengxing brightened with joy.

"Judging from the strength of its aura, that Early-Stage Foundation Establishment Demon Serpent is two points weaker than me. I estimate that it is either at the same level as me, with the second level of Foundation Establishment, or it is only at the first level of Foundation Establishment."

"Even with the help of nearly a hundred Qi Training Stage Demon Serpent Demon Serpent, I can handle a demonic python with ease at this level of cultivation."

Although his cultivation level was only at the second level of Foundation Establishment, he was a sword cultivator and knew the Earthly Fiend Sword Formation, making him far stronger than other cultivators of the same level.

With his thoughts returning to normal, Ling Pengxing did not directly charge into the spiritual mountain several miles away. Instead, he first searched the area within ten miles around the spiritual mountain to see if there were any other groups of Demon Beast nearby.

When Ling Pengxing realized that there were only a few scattered solitary Qi Training Demon Beast around, he felt relieved and turned to attack the spiritual mountain that was occupied by nearly a hundred Demon Serpent.

But he had only stepped about a mile into the sacred mountain when he was discovered by the swarm of Demon Serpent within it.

Within Mount Ling, the Early-Stage Foundation Establishment demon Demon Python King among the Demon Serpent horde was startled to see a Foundation Establishment Cultivator charging towards them.

However, when it detected that the Foundation Establishment Cultivator's cultivation level was similar to its own, it was overjoyed, and a hint of crimson even flashed in its eyes.

Demon Beast are treasures in the eyes of cultivators, and cultivators are treasures in the eyes of Demon Beast.

In the eyes of Demon Beast, the flesh of cultivators is not only delicious, but also contains a great deal of Spiritual Qi, making it the best spiritual food for cultivation.

The Early-Stage Foundation Establishment Demon Python King roared, summoning the Qi Training Stage Demon Serpent scattered throughout the mountains, and led this Demon Serpent to meet the Early-Stage Foundation Establishment cultivator Ling Pengxing who was charging from outside the mountain.

During their attack, the nearly one hundred Demon Serpent, under the command of the Early-Stage Foundation Establishment Demon Serpent, unleashed a barrage of Law Technique attacks towards Ling Pengxing.

Seeing this during the rush, Ling Chengxin was not afraid.

He waved his hand and patted the Storage Bag at his waist, from which he summoned a white disc and a golden longsword, two Second Rank Low Grade Law Artifact.

The white disc is called the White Swallow Disk. It was purchased from the West Yang Market Town West Yang Prefecture during the Demon Beast Uprising on Ling Pengxing, costing 2,000 Spirit Sect Contribution Points. It is an extremely good Second Rank Low Grade defensive magic Law Artifact.

The golden longsword is called the Gilt Sword. It was purchased for Ling Yunhong, the Clan Head of the Ling Clan clan, using the Lineage's Spirit Stone after Ling Pengxing successfully Foundation Establishment. Its quality is of medium.

As soon as the white smoke disc and the Gilt Sword were taken out, Ling Pengxing imbued them with two spiritual energy Law Seals.

The white smoke disc quickly floated to the top of Ling Pengxing, creating a white light screen that protected Ling Pengxing.

At the tip of the Gilt Sword, a golden Sword-Ray four zhang long suddenly appeared.

"Go."

Ling Pengxing waved his hand and sent the Gilt Sword flying.

The Gilt Sword transformed into a golden sword light, sweeping across the sky and shattering nearly half of the hundreds of Law Technique attacks coming from the horizon.

The golden sword light swept across again, shattering the other half of the Law Technique attack.

Subsequently, under Ling Pengxing's control, the sword swiftly attacked the strongest Early-Stage Foundation Establishment Demon Python King in the Demon Serpent horde.

The Blue Scale Demon Python King, in its Early-Stage Foundation Establishment, dared not be careless. It quickly cast Law Technique, first erecting a light blue barrier to protect itself, and then conjuring a water-based attack Law Technique to strike the incoming Gilt Sword.

The Gilt Sword had already used up two or three tenths of its remaining power in the Law Technique attack it unleashed to wipe out the horde of Demon Serpent.

In addition, the Blue-Scaled Demon Serpent in the Early-Stage Foundation Establishment was also quite powerful.

For a moment, the Gilt Sword was also entangled in the Law Technique attacks unleashed by the Early-Stage Foundation Establishment Demon Serpent, making it difficult to achieve any results.

However, because of this, the Early-Stage Foundation Establishment Demon Serpent had no energy left to attack Ling Pengxing.

However, there were nearly a hundred other Qi Refining Demon Serpent surrounding this Demon Serpent.

Although the first wave of Law Technique launched by these Qi Training Stage Demon Serpent was shattered by the Gilt Sword, they subsequently launched a Qi Refining Law Technique Demon Serpent that bombarded the white light barrier supported by the white smoke disc around Ling Pengxing, creating huge Ripples Marketplace.

Above the defensive light barrier supported by the white smoke disc, the flickering spiritual light gradually dimmed.

Upon seeing this, Ling Pengxing frowned slightly, waved his hand and patted the Storage Bag at his waist, summoning eighteen First-Tier Superior-Grade Azure Spirit Sword from it.

As soon as he took out the eighteen flying swords, a massive Sword Intent erupted from his body and surged into the eighteen flying swords.

Immediately afterwards, the eighteen flying swords quickly formed the Earthly Fiend Sword Formation.

Once the Sword Formation was complete, the eighteen flying swords became as one.

Each flying sword's tip emitted a massive Sword-Ray about 1.5 feet long, while around the Sword Formation floated hundreds of smaller Sword-Ray, each about two inches long.

"Destroy".

Eighteen flying swords, carrying Sword Light Torrent, swiftly plunged into the swarm of Demon Serpent a mile away.

However, this Sword Light Torrent was not aimed at the Early-Stage Foundation Establishment Demon Serpent that was fighting with the Gilt Sword, but rather at annihilating nearly a hundred Qi Training Stage Demon Serpent.

The Sword Light Torrent back and forth several times, slaying more than thirty Qi Refining Demon Serpent.

The Early-Stage Foundation Establishment Demon Python King, who was entangled in a battle with the Gilt Sword, wanted to protect his clan, but he had no spare strength to help them.

After a hundred breaths, all the Qi Refining Demon Serpent in the Demon Serpent were killed by the Sword Light Torrent.

With the Qi Refining Demon Serpent no longer casting Law Technique to bombard the defensive light barrier erected by the white smoke disc, Ling Pengxing's pressure in terms of spiritual energy consumption was greatly reduced.

The number of Qi Refining Demon Serpent that died in this place was nearly a hundred, which made the Blood Qi in this place very dense in a short period of time.

Ling Pengxing's already furrowed brows furrowed even more as he smelled the strong stench of blood in the air.

Although there are not many Demon Beast within ten miles of this place, Demon Beast have always had a strong sense of smell, and it is not impossible for them to smell the blood here from dozens of miles away.

Because of this matter, Ling Pengxing no longer held back and planned to finish the battle quickly.

He Hand Seals to unleash the Earthly Fiend Sword Formation Melt Word Swordplay Secret, simultaneously activating the Geng Metal Sword Seed within his body and unleashing the Geng Metal Sword Intent.

Eighteen Law Seals were condensed and injected into the eighteen Azure Spirit Sword.

The eighteen Azure Spirit Sword that formed the Sword Formation trembled slightly, then quickly merged together, transforming into a special flying sword covered with sword-shaped patterns.

At the tip of this sword, a five-zhang-long Geng Metal Sword Radiance suddenly emerged, making it much more powerful than the technique used by Ling Pengyun was at the same cultivation level.

This is also because Ling Pengxing is a sword cultivator, which gives him an advantage when using Sword Formation.

Once the five-zhang-long Geng Metal Sword Radiance was formed, it transformed into a golden stream of light and swiftly struck the only remaining Early-Stage Foundation Establishment Demon Python King standing in the area.

The Geng Metal Sword Radiance was incredibly fast. The Early-Stage Foundation Establishment Demon Serpent was already entangled by the Gilt Sword and had little strength left, so it was difficult for it to use any attack methods to block the Geng Metal Sword Radiance.

"Boom."

The Geng Metal Sword Radiance struck the azure light barrier surrounding the Early-Stage Foundation Establishment Demon Serpent, creating a huge Ripples Marketplace.

In the blink of an eye, the azure light barrier formed by Law Technique was shattered.

Faced with the perilous situation, the Early-Stage Foundation Establishment Demon Serpent had no choice but to use its inner core Inner Core Divine Power to raise its Protective Yuan Qi and block the five-zhang -Geng Metal Sword Radiance, which still had nearly half of its power remaining.

In the distance, Ling Pengxing saw that the Early-Stage Foundation Establishment Demon Serpent, relying on its Protective Yuan Qi to withstand the Geng Metal Sword Radiance, was not worried, but rather delighted.

"This python has finally activated its Protective Yuan Qi."

Ling Pengxing's expression shifted slightly as he continuously formed hand Hand Seals, drawing upon a large amount of Liquid Spiritual Power within his body to condense a golden magic seal covered in sword Law Seals.

"Geng Metal Cloud Splitting Sword".

"Condensation."

The golden Law Seals seal covered with sword patterns flashed with spiritual light and quickly transformed into a giant golden Sword-Ray eight zhang long.

The giant Sword-Ray transformed into a dazzling golden light, and in the blink of an eye, it struck the Protective Yuan Qi erected by the Early-Stage Foundation Establishment Demon Serpent a mile away.

The Protective Yuan Qi lasted only three breaths before being shattered by the eight-zhang-long, dazzling Sword-Ray.

With its Protective Yuan Qi shattered, the Geng Metal Cloud Splitting Sword plunged straight in, swiftly slicing across the head of the Early-Stage Foundation Establishment Demon Serpent and severing it.

Ling Pengxing was delighted. He waved his hand to withdraw the attack, summoned the Gilt Sword and the eighteen Azure Spirit Sword back to his side, and quickly walked to the huge Demon Serpent, putting them into a Storage Bag that he had prepared beforehand.

Then, he used the Gilt Sword beside him to begin cutting the useful spiritual materials from the remaining nearly one hundred Qi Refining Demon Serpent on the ground.

But just as he finished harvesting the materials from more than a dozen Demon Serpent, footsteps echoed from the depths of the Serpent Dragon Lake.

Attracted by the unusual movement, Ling Pengxing turned his head and saw two Foundation Establishment Foundation Establishment wolf demons leading hundreds of Qi Training Stage wolf demon Demon Beast rushing towards this place.

"Given my current condition, I cannot possibly defeat a pack of wolf demons of this size."

His brows furrowed immediately, and he glanced with a hint of reluctance at the more than seventy Qi Refining Demon Serpent corpses that had not yet been harvested for their spiritual materials.

Because the wolf pack rushing towards him from afar was extremely fast, he dared not delay any longer. He quickly used the Wind Control Technique to enhance his body and transformed into a gust of Qing Feng to escape from the place.

The pack of wolf demons chased Ling Pengxing for a while longer, but Ling Pengxing was also quite fast, and he was already several miles away from the wolf pack.

Before long, he shook off the wolf pack that was chasing him.

After shaking off the wolf pack, Ling Pengxing noticed that the harvest was meager and the market price of Demon Beast had dropped somewhat.

The complete corpse and inner Early-Stage Foundation Establishment Demon Serpent that were obtained this time were only worth seven or eight hundred Spirit Stone.

The materials from the dozen or so Qi Training Stage Demon Serpent were worth only one or two hundred Spirit Stone.

The two combined are worth only about a thousand Spirit Stone.

This amount of Spirit Stone is only enough to buy three mouthfuls of century-old Evergreen Spirit Water.

Three doses of Evergreen Spirit Water could only help him reach the Peak Foundation Establishment Second Layer.

If he wants to break through to the Foundation Establishment Third Layer, he will need more Evergreen Spirit Water.

It was precisely because of this that Ling Pengxing did not leave the territory of Serpent Dragon Lake directly.

Instead, he traveled another hundred miles and hid in a desolate valley to meditate and recover his spiritual power.

After his spiritual energy recovered, he ventured deeper into the Serpent Dragon Lake area to search for suitable Foundation Establishment Demon Beast.

Over the next ten days or so, Ling Pengxing found several more groups of Demon Beast.

However, the Foundation Establishment Demon Beast among these Demon Beast hordes were quite powerful, so he had no choice but to give up.

Fortunately, several days passed, and on this day...

When Ling Pengxing passed by a spirit valley, he used his Aura Observation Technique to detect that there were hundreds of wolf demons inside the valley, and among them was a wolf demon in the Early-Stage Foundation Establishment.

This situation delighted Ling Pengxing, as such a large group of Demon Beast was the perfect target for his attack.

After making up his mind, he still searched around the spirit valley to see if there were any other powerful Demon Beast or groups of Demon Beast.

Only when he realized there was nothing there did he attack the wolf pack inside the spirit valley.

But he had barely entered the spirit valley and fought the wolf pack there for less than half an incense stick's time.

A huge Golden Feather Great Peng was drawn to the valley by the rich, bloody aura emanating from the dozens of Qi Refining wolf demons that had died at the hands of Ling Pengxing. It flew over quickly.

Ling Pengxing, who was fighting with the wolf demons in the valley, noticed the strange movement in the sky and immediately turned his head to look.

When he saw a Golden Feather Great Peng with a cultivation level of Middle-Stage Foundation Establishment flying in from several miles away, his eyes trembled. He immediately withdrew his magic Law Artifact, jumped onto the Gilt Sword that had suddenly grown a four-zhang Sword-Ray, and used the sword to quickly escape.

After a cultivator enters the Foundation Establishment, they can use flying sword-like magical Law Artifact to fly. However, this consumes a great deal of Spiritual Qi and is not as Spiritual Qi- efficient as a flying boat of the same level. After all, flying boats are specially crafted for the purpose of flight.

The Golden Feather Great Peng in the sky naturally wouldn't let Ling Pengxing, who had Foundation Establishment cultivation, get away so easily, and continued to pursue him relentlessly.

Seeing this, Ling Pengxing had no choice but to fully activate the Gilt Sword beneath his feet.

With sufficient spiritual power, the Sword-Ray on the tip of the Gilt Sword surged another ten feet, and the speed of the flying sword increased by several times, no slower than the Golden Feather Great Peng chasing behind.

After a chase of nearly a thousand miles, Ling Pengxing, who had already fought a fierce battle with the wolf pack, was about to exhaust his spiritual energy.

Fortunately, he was prepared and took a Second Rank Low Grade spirit- Spirit Returning Pill in time to recover his spiritual power, and once again controlled the Gilt Sword to fly.

Only after he flew out of the Serpent Dragon Lake territory with his Gilt Sword did the Golden Feather Great Peng Roc, who was in the Middle-Stage Foundation Establishment, reluctantly abandon Ling Pengxing and return to the Serpent Dragon Lake territory.

Having experienced being chased by Middle-Stage Foundation Establishment Demon Beast, Ling Pengxing felt a lingering fear.

In addition, the grand auction in West Yang Market Town was about to begin in just a few days, so he gave up the idea of venturing deeper into the territory of Serpent Dragon Lake to risk killing Foundation Establishment Demon Beast to earn Spirit Stone.

Taking this opportunity, he returned to the Ling Clan Alchemy Hall in West Yang Market Town.
