Then, Jia Mu Zhenren once again swung his spear and engaged in a fierce battle with the two phantom giant pincers unleashed by the Red Armor Crab Demon.

With the combined efforts of Ling Pengyun and Jia Mu Zhenren, even though the Red Armor Crab Demon at the Golden Core Second Layer was very strong, it was starting to falter and showed signs of defeat.

The crab roared and spat out a giant red scissor that revealed the rudiments of Magic Treasure Prototype.

This giant red pair of scissors is the crab demon's Lifebound Magic Treasure, with a grade of Third Rank Low Grade, which can be considered a Middle Vehicle Law Treasure.

The raw materials were several soft shells shed by this crab demon during its molting period over the past few hundred years, as well as several kinds of third-tier Treasure Iron.

It was created by nurturing it with the Golden Core core essence of the Red Armor Crab Demon King for one or two hundred years and incorporating a third-order Armor-Piercing Treasure Pattern restriction.

The Red Armor Giant Scissor transformed into a streak of red light and shadow, swiftly striking towards the most threatening and closest target, Jia Mu Zhenren, attempting to ambush and kill him.

Jia Mu Zhenren was shocked by the imposing presence of the Red Armor Giant Scissor.

"It's actually Third Rank Low Grade Law Treasure!"

Several months ago, he had fought against this Red Armor Crab Demon King once.

However, at that time, the Red Armor Crab Demon King did not summon his Lifebound Magic Treasure, Red Armor Crab Demon under his command who were in the Qi Training Stage and Foundation Establishment Realm also showed no signs of possessing Lifebound Magic Item.

Moreover, a demon king at the Golden Core Initial Stage has only just experienced a surge in intelligence and has no particular talent, making it impossible for him to create Lifebound Magic Treasure at such a level of cultivation.

Generally, only demon kings at the Golden Core Middle Stage or above possess the ability to create Lifebound Magic Item and Law Treasure from their natal spirit patterns that are above the Golden Core.

Of course, there are some exceptionally intelligent and talented demon Demon Beast who can create their Lifebound Magic Treasure and Law Artifact even in the Golden Core Initial Stage.

However, these exceptionally talented individuals possess extremely powerful strength, and some even have the ability to defeat enemies of higher ranks.

Clearly, this Red Armor Crab Demon king at the Golden Core Second Layer was not a person of extraordinary talent.

"Could it be that this crab demon has a mother clan, and its current clan is just a small branch that has broken away from it?"

Jia Mu Zhenren was secretly puzzled.

Just as Jia Mu Zhenren had guessed, the crab demon king at the Golden Core Second Layer did indeed have a maternal clan, and that clan was not weak. In addition, it had four Red Armor Crab Demon kings at the Golden Core stage.

However, the Red Armor Crab Demon King, who had the highest cultivation level in its clan, broke through to the Golden Core Late Stage decades ago, and the Spiritual Qi required for its daily cultivation was too enormous.

This caused the Red Armor Crab Demon King, who Golden Core Second Layer, to make slow progress in its daily cultivation. Helpless, it took some of its offspring and left the clan to search for suitable Spirit Vein elsewhere.

By fortuitous opportunity chance, it discovered that a Third Rank Low Grade Water Vein was hidden deep within this trench.

Since the place was unclaimed and the Spirit Vein was associated with water, which was in harmony with its nature, cultivating here would be twice as effective for this Red Armor Crab Demon king. So it led its offspring to settle here.

It wasn't until the last six months, when the crab population became too large and the daily food requirements were too great, that occasional crab demons attacked passing cultivators, that the overlord of this sea area Wood Origin Immortal Sect, discovered the problem.

However, recently, 70% of the cultivators of the Wood Origin Immortal Sect have been stationed at the large Water Spirit Iron in the Wrathful Whale Sea Region to prevent attacks from the massive sea Demon Beast horde.

This battle has lasted for more than half a year without a clear winner.

In addition, the territory of the Wood Origin Immortal Sect is too vast, and the 30% of the cultivators who remain in the sect each have their own place of residence.

This also made it difficult for the Wood Origin Immortal Sect to spare the resources to annihilate this group of crab demons.

Jia Mu Zhenren was also an old Daoist cultivator. With a wave of his hand, he immediately summoned another Third Rank Low Grade Lifebound Magic Treasure, the "Jia Mu Giant Shield".

This shield is a full ten feet tall and was forged by Jia Mu Zhenren using a piece of third-grade spirit wood as raw material.

The shield flashed with a magical light, erecting a greenish-blue light barrier that blocked the formidable Third Rank Low Grade Law Treasure, the "Red Armor Giant Scissor."

However, that Red Armor Giant Scissor is Armor-Piercing Treasure, and it excels at doing so.

Jia Mu Zhenren Jia Mu Giant Shield was only recently refined to the Third Rank Low Grade, so its power is not strong.

In just a moment, the Red Armor Giant Scissor struck a sizable crack in the Jia Wood light barrier.

The spear in Jia Mu Zhenren's hand was blocked again by the two phantom giant pincers conjured by the Red Armor Crab Demon King, making it difficult for him to defend.

As a result, he found himself in a precarious situation.

However, as a Golden Core Middle Stage expert, he naturally has many tricks up his sleeve.

His eyes flashed with lightning, and the White Cloud above the sea suddenly turned black.

The next moment, a dazzling blue lightning bolt, accompanied by a thunderous roar, swiftly struck the seawater and crashed into the "Red Armor Giant Scissor".

"Boom!"

With a single strike, the azure lightning bolt directly dimmed the light of the giant scissors, leaving its surface charred black.

Its power was also greatly reduced, to only about half, making it difficult to pose much of a threat to the "Jia Wood Light Curtain".

As a result, Jia Mu Zhenren was able to escape the perilous situation.

Meanwhile, a thousand feet away.

Ling Pengyun, sitting on the deck of the Wrathful Whale Flying Boat, recalled the azure lightning that had appeared out of nowhere, his eyes filled with envy.

"Jia Mu Profound Lightning!"

"I never expected that Jia Wood Daoist Jiamu would have such a hidden trick up his sleeve."

"Jia Wood Daoist Jiamu is indeed worthy of being from the Wood Origin Immortal Sect."

"With this Mystical Treasure Art alone, Jia Wood Jiamu's strength is probably comparable to that of an ordinary Golden Core Sixth Layer expert."

Jia Mu Profound Lightning is an extremely powerful Mystical Treasure Art. Although its power is not as great as that of Geng Jin or Bing Fire Xuanlei, it is still quite powerful and can be ranked among the top Divine Ability. It can be considered an ordinary Middle Vehicle Divine Ability.

Even the lowest level of Lower Vehicle Divine Ability is several times stronger than Law Technique, and even several times stronger than a cultivator's Innate Spell.

Furthermore, Divine Ability are not restricted like Innate Spell; they can only be used if one has cultivated the same Cultivation Method. Any cultivator can use Mystical Treasure Art, but comprehending Divine Ability is quite difficult.

Of course, due to its powerful abilities, this kind of Mystical Treasure Art has become a prized possession of major powers and is not easily leaked out.

Currently, the Ling Clan family does not possess any Mystical Treasure Art.

Just as Ling Pengyun was stunned, the Red Armor Crab Demon King, who Golden Core Second Layer stage, was shocked to see that his Lifebound Magic Treasure, the "Red Armor Giant Scissor," had been severely injured in an instant.

To avoid the destruction of the Red Armor Giant Scissor Law Treasure that it had nurtured for a full one or two hundred years, it quickly put them away.

Then he let out a loud roar, signaling the Red Armor Crab Demon in the Qi Training Stage and Foundation Establishment Realm stages hidden deep in the trench to come and help.

Instantly, thousands of red- Red Armor Crab Demon, resembling figures clad in red armor and wielding enormous pincers, sprang forth from the thousand-foot-deep trench.

These thousands of Red Armor Crab Demon are the result of decades of breeding and growth of the Golden Core stage Red Armor Crab Demon king.

Previously, the Red Armor Crab Demon King did not send out his clan because he was worried that these Qi Training Stage and Foundation Establishment Realm Red Armor Crab Demon would suffer too much loss in the Golden Core battle.

These are all offspring of the Red Armor Crab Demon King himself, so naturally the Demon King feels sorry for them.

However, those Qi Training Stage and Foundation Establishment Realm Red Armor Crab Demon were not stupid. They stopped when they got about two miles away from Jia Mu Zhenren and launched a long-range attack, using their own Innate Spell to spit out water balls and attack Jia Mu Zhenren.

In an instant, thousands of water spheres of varying sizes appeared.

Jia Mu Zhenren, however, was not afraid at all; instead, a smile appeared on his face.

"The crab demons in the Qi Training Stage and Foundation Establishment Realm have finally appeared. This is better than having to search for these crab demons one by one after killing the Qi Training Stage king with Ling Daoyou Foundation Establishment Realm."

Then, he shouted loudly to Bai Yu, the only Pseudo-Core Realm cultivator on the Wrathful Whale Flying Boat a thousand feet behind him.

"Bai Shizhi, you can activate the formation now."

Upon hearing this, Bai Yu, who was on the flying boat, immediately took action.

He quickly summoned the other three hundred Qi Refining cultivators and forty-nine Foundation Establishment Cultivator on the flying boat, and had them channel their spiritual energy into the flying boat's array plate.

The main reason these cultivators were brought along by Jia Mu Zhenren was to activate the "Geng Metal Wrathful Whale Grand Array" on the flying boat.

This formation consumes a great deal of Spiritual Qi. Even if a third-order Spirit Gathering Formation is set up on the flying boat, if no cultivator transfers spiritual energy to support it, or if a large amount of Spirit Stone are used as support, the spiritual energy stored in the flying boat will be exhausted in less than a hundred moves.

Just now, these cultivators did not accompany Jia Mu Zhenren and Ling Pengyun in attacking the Golden Core stage demon king, in order to conserve their spiritual energy so as to fully maintain the "Geng Metal Wrathful Whale Grand Array".

At the same time, Bai Yu made hand Hand Seals and cast several Method Formula on the array plate.

The array plate suddenly flashed with a blood-red light, and countless blood-red array patterns emerged from all parts of the Wrathful Whale Flying Boat.

In an instant, these array patterns coalesced into a phantom of Wrathful Blood Spirit Whale, thirty feet in size and exuding the aura of Golden Core First Layer cultivator.

Although this whale phantom is a phantom, it possesses power, though it appears transparent.

It let out a long roar, and quickly swung its tail to slap the surrounding seawater, transforming into a giant red aura.

In the blink of an eye, the whale traversed thousands of feet and arrived in front of Jia Mu Zhenren, erecting a giant blood-red light screen that blocked all the thousands of water spheres that were attacking Jia Mu Zhenren.

Then, the whale charged straight into the group of thousands of Qi Training Stage and Foundation Establishment Realm Red Armor Crab Demon in the distance, and frantically slaughtered these low-level Red Armor Crab Demon.

The Red Armor Crab Demon King, who was entangled by Jia Mu Zhenren and Ling Pengyun, was filled with rage as he watched his offspring die tragically one after another.

Without further hesitation, it opened its mouth and spat out the Golden Core that had been nurtured for one or two hundred years, blasting it towards the nearby Jia Mu Zhenren.

The Golden Core pill was incredibly fast; Jia Mu Zhenren had no time to react before his defensive light barrier, erected by his Jia Mu Giant Shield, was shattered.

Fortunately, this defensive light barrier delayed the Golden Core cultivator for some time, allowing Jia Mu Zhenren to hold his wooden spear horizontally in front of him and block the fatal blow.

However, that Golden Core contained a force of over 400,000 jin. Even though the wooden spear Law Treasure blocked it, Jia Mu Zhenren was still blasted hundreds of feet away by the residual force before he could regain his footing.

He also suffered immense force, resulting in the breakage of both arms and a surge of Qi and Blood throughout his body.

In a short period of time, it is simply impossible to suppress the condition within the body using spiritual power.

Seeing this, the Red Armor Crab Demon King pressed his advantage, launching another powerful Golden Core at Jia Mu Zhenren.

Furthermore, he took out the severely damaged Third Rank Low Grade Lifebound Magic Treasure "Red Armor Giant Scissor" that he had just retrieved, as well as the giant pincers that he conjured using his Innate Spell "Phantom Red Armor Giant Pincers," and attacked Jia Mu Zhenren as well.

"Ling Daoyou, please lend me your assistance."

Seeing so many attacks coming at him, Jia Mu Zhenren, Qi and Blood and qi were surging and who had little power to fight back, frowned and hurriedly called for help from Ling Pengyun, who was a thousand feet away.

Hearing this from a thousand feet away, Ling Pengyun knew that if Jia Mu Zhenren were to encounter an accident, he alone would find it difficult to kill the Red Armor Crab Demon at the Golden Core Second Layer.

He immediately responded by withdrawing the Azure Sea Heavy Yuan Treasure Pearl, the prototype of his Lifebound Magic Treasure that had been bombarding the "defense light barrier" around the Red Armor Crab King.

Subsequently, the Azure Sea Heavy Yuan Treasure Pearl, which was thirty-three zhang in size, was quickly brought to the aid of Jia Mu Zhenren.

This precious pearl is already incredibly fast, especially in water, where its speed increases by a factor of three.

The three attacks launched by the Red Armor Crab King arrived in front of Jia Mu Zhenren Jia Mu Zhenren, blocking the three deadly attacks that were about to strike him.
