Terrifying Humanoid Ancient Void Dragon
"Call"
Gazing at the distant mountains, Xiao Yuan let out a soft breath, his eyes filled with a hint of solemnity. He could vaguely sense that within those ancient, seemingly endless mountains, there were hidden auras of extreme ferocity. Even Xiao Yuan felt a sense of danger from these auras.
"The ferocious beasts here are isolated from the world and have been passed down from ancient times. They are incredibly powerful. Although their intelligence is not as good as that of magical beasts of the same level due to their extreme violence, their explosive power is unmatched even by magical beasts."
Beside Xiao Yuan, the knowledgeable Heavenly Flame Venerable spoke softly.
Xiao Yuan nodded, and with a clench of his fist, a bead with a hint of emerald green appeared in his palm. It was the Bodhi Zi that had been extracted from the Bodhi Transformation Saliva. This Barren Ancient Domain was extremely vast, and finding the location of the Bodhi Ancient Tree within it was not easy. Moreover, there were countless ferocious beasts within. If Hu Chuang were to venture out, even with their lineup, they would likely face dire consequences.
Holding the Bodhi Zi in his hand, Xiao Yuan closed his eyes slightly, carefully sensing the movement within Bodhi Zi. After a moment, he slowly opened his eyes, gazing towards the northwest, and softly said:
"Perhaps we are too far from the Bodhi Ancient Tree to clearly perceive its exact location, but judging from the information feedback from the Bodhi Zi, it is roughly in this direction."
Let's go.
After carefully putting away the Bodhi Zi, Xiao Yuan didn't linger. He lightly touched the boulder with his toes, and his figure soared up like a roc. Then, stepping through the void, he quickly flew towards the other side of the Heavenly Rift.
The distance of several hundred feet seemed wide, but with Xiao Yuan and the others' speed, they appeared on the other side in the blink of an eye. However, just as they stepped into that area of sky, several roars of beasts suddenly rang out from the ground, and then several black shadows, carrying a thick, nauseating stench, pounced on Xiao Yuan in mid-air with lightning speed.
The sudden attack did not cause Xiao Yuan and his group any panic, because before they could even get close, they were crushed by Xiao Yuan's terrifying soul power.
"It seems there are many ferocious beasts in this area. If we fly over there, we will probably attract a lot of trouble from them."
Cai Lin frowned slightly and said.
"It's alright, it's just a ferocious beast."
Xiao Yuan waved his hand, seemingly unconcerned.
No matter how fierce it is, can it be more fierce than the Dragon Phoenix Bloodline in his body?
With a thought, the power of the Dragon Phoenix Bloodline was activated, and a purple-gold luster appeared in Xiao Yuan's eyes. A terrifying pressure spread out and then transformed into a purple-gold phantom dragon, which enveloped the group and flew into the depths.
"Waaah!"
In this ancient land, long, violent roars of beasts echoed continuously in the sky.
Xiao Yuan and his group passed through almost unimpeded.
Led by Xiao Yuan, a humanoid Ancient Void Dragon with Dragon Phoenix Bloodline, they encountered virtually no ferocious beasts along the way.
After all, adult Ancient Void Dragon are usually not to be trifled with in the Beast Realm.
"Huh?"
After traveling for a while, Xiao Yuan suddenly stopped, a smile appearing on his face.
"Brother, what's wrong?"
Seeing this, Xiao Yan asked in confusion.
"Hehe, I've run into an acquaintance. I'll probably have to slow down my journey from here on out."
Xiao Yuan smiled, then led everyone down to the ground not far away.
Within the dense forest, intense fluctuations of Dou Qi continuously spread out, sweeping down the surrounding trees and raising clouds of dust.
"The Wind Extremes, Meteorite Kill!"
Although this Dou Technique is no longer sufficient for Yun Yun now, with her current peak Nine Stars Dou Zun strength, the power of this level of Dou Technique is still quite astonishing.
A thin, dark blue line shot out rapidly, piercing one of the beast's eyes.
At the same time, many elders of the Flower Sect around her rushed forward and attacked the ferocious beast.
This ferocious beast is roughly at the One Revolution Dou Zun Peak, but because of its thick skin and fearless nature, even Two Revolutions Dou Zun Peak expert would have a headache if he encountered it.
However, the severe injury to its eyes did not deter the beast; instead, it fueled its ferocity, and a blood-red glow emanated from its body.
Anyone with a bit of experience knows that this usually means the creature has entered a berserk state.
"Everyone stay calm. As long as we can hold out for this period, this ferocious beast will fall into a period of weakness, and we will definitely be able to defeat it then."
As Yun Yun spoke, she joined forces with Qing Hua Elder, who was also at the Nine Stars Dou Zun level, to fight the ferocious beast head-on.
However, even a Two Revolutions Dou Zun Peak expert could perish if caught off guard by a ferocious beast, let alone the combined attack of two Nine Stars Dou Zun and several seven-star and Eight Star Dou Zun. Yun Yun, whose longsword was slapped by the beast and sent flying backward, frowned and gritted her teeth. Just as she was about to use the secret technique of the Flower Sect, she heard a roar like a dragon's cry and a phoenix's cry descend from the sky.
Yun Yun subconsciously looked up, only to see a purple-gold dragon claw phantom descend from the sky, smashing the ferocious beast into a pulp with a single slap? Yun Yun: "?"
The next moment, a familiar laugh, accompanied by the handsome face she had been longing for, appeared before her.
"Sister Yun, it's been so long! Did you miss me?"
The elders of the Flower Sect, upon hearing that their sect leader had been teased by the handsome young man who had suddenly appeared, were furious and were about to reprimand him when they saw Yun Yun suddenly bury her face in the man's arms.
"With such handsome looks and such strength, could this person be the Young Pavilion Master the Starfall Pavilion, the little giant of the Danta?"
These elders of the Flower Sect were all quite powerful, and they were in seclusion unless something major happened. So when Xiao Yuan visited the Flower Sect, he naturally didn't meet them. However, Xiao Yuan's great reputation did reach their ears.
"So he's Xiao Yuan?"
The Qing Hua Elder, who had reached the Nine Stars Dou Zun, nodded slightly upon seeing Xiao Yuan. Yun Yun had only recently taken over the Flower Sect, and under Hua Yu's arrangement, she had come out with Yun Yun this time to seek opportunities. She had done some research and thus knew some things about Xiao Yuan.
"No wonder this kid ran so fast, turns out he ran into his sweetheart."
In the distance, Heavenly Flame Venerable looked at the ferocious beast at his feet, which had been smashed into a pulp by a single slap, and shook his head helplessly.
Although he had always known that Xiao Yuan's combat strength could not be measured by his Douqi Realm, it was truly outrageous that Nine Stars Dou Zun could kill a ferocious beast that could fight to the death with Two Revolutions Dou Zun Peak with a single slap.
Xiao Yan scratched his head. Most of his sister-in-law were like that; wherever she went, she was always his Third Brother's old flame.
Cai Lin and Xiao Yi Xian exchanged a glance and then followed.
"It's been a long time."
Yun Yun's voice carried a hint of grievance.
She was left alone in the Flower Sect, unfamiliar with the place and the people, and Xiao Yuan, that heartless man, never took the time to visit her.
If it weren't for the fact that the elders and disciples of the Flower Sect were all kind people, and that Hua Yu had taught her everything she knew, allowing her to focus on cultivation, she probably would have fallen ill with lovesickness.
However, as the current sect leader of the Flower Sect, she couldn't be too arrogant in front of the elders. Therefore, Yun Yun didn't linger in Xiao Yuan for too long before breaking free and smilingly greeting Cai Lin and Xiao Yi Xian.
The three sisters hadn't seen each other for a long time.
"Young Pavilion Master, thank you very much for your help this time."
At this moment, Qing Hua Elder approached and thanked Xiao Yuan.
"Hehe, Elder, you're too kind Starfall Pavilion and the Flower Sect have always been on good terms, and given my relationship with Sister Yun, it's only right that I lend a hand. There's no need for thanks," Xiao Yuan smiled, pondered for a moment, and then said, "However, I do have a question. I wonder how long you elders have been in the Ancient Domain?"
"It's been almost five days, but we don't have a specific route, so we're moving quite slowly. Along the way, we've also attracted a group of extremely powerful ferocious beasts. This beast is the most troublesome one we've encountered in the past few days."
Qing Hua Elder said with a hint of helplessness.
Xiao Yuan nodded and asked, "Does the elder know how the other forces are faring now?"
"They should be getting close to the Ancient Domain Platform of the Barren Ancient Domain. It's a place left over from ancient times, and ferocious beasts usually don't go near it, so it's considered a safe area in the Barren Ancient Domain." Yun Yun, who was holding hands with Cai Lin and Xiao Yi Xian and reminiscing, suddenly spoke up. "However, we are probably still almost two days away from there."
"Ancient Domain Platform, huh?" Xiao Yuan nodded upon hearing this, then said, "Then let's travel together from here on out. You don't need to lift a finger; I'll take care of everything."
"Um."
Upon hearing this, Yun Yun readily agreed. They had witnessed the dangers of the Barren Ancient Domain in the past few days, and relying solely on their own strength, it would likely be difficult to reach the Ancient Domain Platform. With Xiao Yuan by their side, things would be much easier.
"Let's continue eastward for now. The western route is closer, but the main path there is occupied by an ' Ancient Demonic Python ' whose combat power is comparable to Five Revolution Dou Zun Peak. If we try to pass through it, we'll inevitably alert it."
Yun Yun.
"Ancient Demonic Python?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan was taken aback. This was an extremely rare mutated snake-type ferocious beast. In terms of ferocity, it was even more ferocious than the Nine Nether Earth Python. However, this creature was so rare that it had long been extinct in the outside world. He hadn't expected it to still exist here. However, what surprised Xiao Yuan was not the rarity of this Ancient Demonic Python, but that he suddenly remembered that the blood of the Ancient Demonic Python had the effect of cleansing and enhancing physical strength. He could also use this to cultivate his Vajra Glazed Body to its peak of nine zhang and nine chi.
Moreover, Xiao Yuan remembered reading in ancient books that the Ancient Demonic Python had a penchant for building blood pools. These blood pools were where their offspring would be born and reproduce. In order to ensure that their offspring could absorb enough energy, they would spend hundreds of years continuously collecting rare and precious Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures with rich energy and then putting them into the pool. In the end, this energy would be absorbed by the blood and eventually integrated into the bodies of their offspring.
"Have you personally witnessed that Ancient Demonic Python?"
Xiao Yuan's eyes flashed slightly as he spoke.
"Yeah, we even fought each other, and I almost couldn't escape."
Yun Yun was solemn.
"Is that so?" Xiao Yuan murmured to himself, then looked up at Yun Yun and said, "Take me there. That Ancient Demonic Python will be of great use to me."
"What?"
Upon hearing that Xiao Yuan was actually going to actively seek out the ferocious Ancient Demonic Python, the members of the Flower Sect were immediately shocked.
"Good!"
Yun Yun, however, chose to believe Xiao Yuan directly.
Based on her understanding of Xiao Yuan, she naturally trusted Xiao Yuan quite a bit.
After a long journey, the group arrived at the edge of an extremely precipitous mountain.
From a distance, the mountain peak resembled a giant python reaching to the sky, coiled on one side of a main road. Within the mountain, wisps of black energy continuously emanated, shrouding the sky within a radius of a hundred meters. Within this area, no ferocious beast dared to set foot, for this was the territory of the Ancient Demonic Python!
The blood of the Ancient Demonic Python has an excellent effect on cleansing and tempering the body. However, Xiao Yuan's body is already quite strong after being tempered by various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. If he wants to improve further, ordinary treasures will not be of much use. In fact, even the blood of the Heavenly Demon Python will not have much effect on him.
However, what Xiao Yuan valued was not the Ancient Demonic Python, but the Demonic Blood Pool that it had accumulated over hundreds of years! Over hundreds of years, or even longer, the Ancient Demonic Python would painstakingly search for numerous rare Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures with pure energy and throw them into this Demonic Blood Pool. Over time, the energy condensed within it had reached an extremely terrifying level. If an ordinary person were to enter it, they would probably be burst out of their body by that terrifying energy. Only the descendants of the Ancient Demonic Python could withstand such concentrated energy.
Of course, with Xiao Yuan's humanoid Ancient Void Dragon body, taking a bath in it would be no problem for him. He could even take this opportunity to directly cultivate the Vajra Glazed Body to its peak.
"The Ancient Demonic Python is right here."
Looking at the towering peak shrouded in black mist before her, Yun Yun said softly.
Xiao Yuan nodded with burning eyes, then grinned and chuckled, "Wait a moment, I'll be right there!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure transformed into a black shadow and swiftly rushed towards the black giant peak.
Watching Xiao Yuan's departing figure, Yun Yun turned to look at Xiao Yan and the others, only to find that they had no intention of following.
"Doesn't the Young Pavilion Master need any help?"
Qing Hua Elder also looked puzzled.
However, before Xiao Yan could answer, a nine-zhang-tall golden giant covered in dragon scales emerged from within the mountain peak, gripping a section of black tail and suddenly exerting force.
The Ancient Demonic Python roared in shock and fear, followed by the sounds of rocks crumbling and flesh tearing open, one after another.
