One Against Three
Two years later, on a certain azure sea, the sky was clear and blue.
A piercing bird cry echoed from high above, followed by a streak of azure light that hovered in the sky before suddenly swooping down. It was a Cyan Falcon Bird with a wingspan of over ten zhang (approximately 33 meters).
The Cyan Falcon Bird was very fast. When it was about thirty feet from the ground, countless thick Cyan Vine burst out of the ground and entangled the Cyan Falcon Bird's sharp talons.
With a gentle flap of its wings, the Cyan Falcon Bird unleashed a Giant Wind Blade that severed the Cyan Vine. A thick, Four-Colored Light Screen then appeared, enveloping the Cyan Falcon Bird and most of the island within it.
Realizing the danger, the Cyan Falcon Bird flapped its wings fiercely, unleashing Cyan Tornado over a hundred feet high that struck the Four-Colored Light Screen Four-Colored Light Screen barrier, which remained completely still.
A beam of light appeared on a mountaintop, and a tall young man in red robes appeared—it was Shen Long, who had changed his appearance.
In the past two years, he has used the Monster Luring Grass to kill many Fourth-Rank Spirit Beast. As long as the Demon Beast is trapped by the Four Symbols Four Symbols Demon-Locking Array, Shen Long transforms into Flood Dragon and, with the help of Spirit Treasure, can kill even a mid-fourth-order Shen Long Demon Beast without hesitation.
If they are two mid-stage fourth-tier Demon Beast, then it will be troublesome.
"Now that you've arrived, why don't you show yourself! Do you really think I haven't noticed you?"
Shen Long said coldly, looking towards the northwest.
He landed on the ground and put away the Monster Luring Grass.
The sea surface churned and surged as a Blue Shark over thirty feet long emerged from the water. Two men and a woman stood on the Blue Shark's back, and judging from their attire, they were cultivators from the Three Immortals Sect.
"Monster Luring Grass! It's over a thousand years old. Hand over the Monster Luring Grass, and we might spare your life."
An elderly man of medium build, dressed in a blue robe, spoke, his tone icy.
While hunting Demon Beast in the nearby waters, they accidentally discovered Shen Long's presence.
The Blue Shark let out a loud roar, staring intently at the Desolate Island.
The scent of the Monster Luring Grass drew it here; it desperately wanted to obtain Monster Luring Grass.
The enemy consisted of one Nascent Soul Middle Stage, two Nascent Soul Early Stage, and a fourth-tier Spirit Beast, but Shen Long was not afraid at all.
He cast a spell into the Formation Disk, and the Four-Colored Light Screen collapsed. The Cyan Falcon Bird realized something was wrong, flapped its wings lightly, and flew into the sky, leaving the place.
"Kill him."
The old man in the blue robe said in a deep voice.
They have a significant advantage; with the thousand-year-old Monster Luring Grass, hunting Fourth-Rank Spirit Beast is much easier for them.
The old man in the blue robe flicked his sleeve, and a palm-sized Blue Gourd flew out. He cast a spell into it, and the Blue Gourd shone with a dazzling blue light, rapidly expanding. A large amount of Blue Seawater surged out, churning and surging, transforming into a gigantic blue Water Flood Dragon that lunged at Shen Long.
A burly man in a golden robe shone with golden light. He threw a punch, and a piercing sound of air being torn apart echoed through the void. A Golden Giant Fist flashed out and headed straight for Shen Long.
A woman in a red dress with a graceful figure brandished a folding fan that shimmered with red light. With a gentle wave, dozens of Giant Fireball, each the size of a house, flew out and crashed towards Shen Long like falling meteors.
Shen Long flicked his sleeve, and a large patch of shimmering yellow sand flew out, condensing into a Yellow Giant Blade, which met the blue Water Flood Dragon head-on.
The Yellow Giant Blade collided with the blue Water Flood Dragon, and the former instantly disintegrated, turning into a large amount of shimmering yellow sand.
The blue Water Flood Dragon shook its head and wagged its tail, lunging at Shen Long.
Shen Long unleashed his Dragon-Slaying Saber, and with a single slash, a massive Red Blade Light swept out, striking the blue Water Flood Dragon Water Flood Dragon, which remained unharmed.
The old man in blue robes revealed a smug look on his face. This Mystic Water Gourd had been refined with Heavy Water, and the blue Water Flood Dragon was a manifestation of Heavy Water, making it even more powerful than ordinary heavy Law Treasure.
As the dense, Giant Fireball approached within thirty feet of Shen Long, a barrage of Yellow Sand Arrow met them head-on, shattering the Giant Fireball.
Shen Long swayed, dodging the golden Golden Giant Fist Golden Giant Fist, which slammed into a steep peak, causing it to explode instantly, billowing with dust.
He was testing the Divine Ability of these three Nascent Soul Cultivator, and also getting a feel for their strength so he could deal with them.
A ripple appeared in the void above Shen Long's head, and a crimson fiery palm appeared, striking down directly at him.
Shen Long Shen Long his sword and cleaved the Red Fire Palm in two, the rolling flames engulfing his figure.
The blue Water Flood Dragon rushed over, looking as if it wanted to tear Shen Long to pieces.
Shen Long transformed into a streak of Red Escape Light and sped away at great speed.
"Where do you think you're going! Leave the Monster Luring Grass behind!"
With a loud shout, the burly man in the golden robe unleashed a flurry of golden fist shadows that hurtled straight toward Shen Long.
Shen Long increased his speed to avoid the golden fist shadows.
A gust of wind blew by, and the burly man in the golden robe suddenly appeared in front of Shen Long. He had a pair of huge Cyan Feather Wings on his back. Upon closer inspection, the Cyan Feather Wings were not solid, but ethereal.
The burly man in the golden robe grinned maliciously, his body enveloped in a layer of golden light, as if he were coated with a golden film.
He moved his fists and slammed them towards Shen Long.
Shen Long's lips curled up slightly, his body radiated a bright red light, and numerous Red Dragon Scales grew. His hands transformed into dragon claws as he charged forward.
With a scream, the burly man in the golden robe was sent flying backward, his face filled with disbelief.
Shen Long let out a deafening dragon roar, spewing out a Red Sound Wave that swiftly swept past the golden-robed giant's body.
The burly man in the golden robe turned bright red. He felt as if his internal organs were about to be shattered by the sound waves, and he spat out a mouthful of Essence Blood.
Before he even landed, a long, red-glowing blade descended from the sky, slashing towards the golden-robed giant.
The burly man in the golden robe opened his mouth and spat out a Giant Axe, charging forward to meet the attack.
The Golden Giant Axe clashed with the Red Long Blade, producing a dull thud as metal struck metal.
A thick, long red dragon tail swept in and struck the golden-robed man's head precisely. His head shattered instantly, like tofu.
As soon as the nascent Nascent Soul left the body, a beam of azure light descended from the sky, enveloping the Nascent Soul and storing it in Cyan Jade Bottle.
"Nine Transformations Dragon Transformation Technique! Five Dragons Sect, run!"
The old man in the blue robe was terrified, his eyes filled with fear.
A long Purple Rainbow shot out, heading straight for the two old men in blue robes.
The woman in the red dress quickly produced a pair of gleaming red scissors and went to meet them.
The Purple Rainbow collided with the red scissors, producing a muffled clang of metal striking metal. The red scissors flew backward, revealing a notch.
The Purple Rainbow was a Flying Dagger shimmering with purple light; it was the Purple Spider Blade.
"Spirit Treasure!"
The old man in the blue robe exclaimed in surprise, his voice trembling.
The Purple Spider Blade spun around and slashed towards the blue-robed elder.
With nowhere to dodge, the old man in blue robes quickly summoned a shield that shimmered with blue light to block the Purple Spider Blade.
With a muffled thud, a clearly visible cut appeared on the surface of the Blue Shield.
A ball of fire lit up above their heads, and a huge Crimson Flood Dragon appeared, its entire body covered in red scales.
As soon as the Crimson Flood Dragon appeared, it opened its blood-red maw and spewed out a thick stream of Crimson Flame, engulfing the bodies of the old man in blue robes and the woman in red dress.
The Blue Shark dived into the sea, the fire spread, and a large amount of seawater evaporated, creating a white mist.
The Purple Spider Blade spun once and plunged into the sea, cleaving the water in two. The corpse of the woman in the red dress could be seen, and a nascent Nascent Soul that looked exactly like the woman in the red dress flew out of her body. Before it had flown far, a Blue Net descended from the sky and covered the Nascent Soul.
Unable to escape, the Nascent Soul rapidly expanded and self-destructed, sending a massive burst of red light soaring into the sky and engulfing a large area.
The red light faded, revealing Shen Long's figure.
His Divine Sense could not detect the presence of the blue-robed old man and the Blue Shark; they had escaped.
The Blue Shark used Water Escape Technique to flee, and the Ice Flood Dragon couldn't catch up at all.
The Ice Flood Dragon flew out from the seabed, its mouth holding the corpse of the woman in the red dress, and its right claw gripping the corpse of the man in the golden robe.
Shen Long searched the corpses for valuables, Ice Flood Dragon devoured the bodies of two Nascent Soul Cultivator.
The two Nascent Soul Cultivator possessed considerable wealth, including eight Law Treasure, over 1.5 million Spirit Stone, some Monster Beast Material, and two fourth-tier Demon Core.
Shen Long sheathed the Purple Spider Blade, put the Ice Flood Dragon back into his Spirit Beast Bag, and transformed into a Escape Light, leaving the area.
