Ice Flood Dragon Charges Fourth Rank

With a gentle flap of its wings, the Black Vulture vanished from its spot, avoiding the silver lightning.

The next moment, it appeared above the Cyan Spirit Mushroom, Wind Evasion Technique.

As soon as the Black Vulture appeared, a sharp, piercing screech rang out, as if someone had struck its head with a heavy object, leaving it dizzy and disoriented.

A Golden Flying Needle flew through the air and pierced the Black Vulture's head.

Meanwhile, the Silver Giant Turtle reached the airspace above the Desolate Island. Sensing danger, it tried to turn back, but a powerful gravitational force surged forth, causing its body to plummet uncontrollably towards the ground.

The Silver Giant Turtle opened its mouth and spat out a thick bolt of silver lightning, which struck the ground, causing it to explode and create a huge crater emitting black smoke.

It was no use; its body fell uncontrollably to the ground, and a Golden Flying Needle shot out, piercing its head.

The Black Vulture and the Silver Giant Turtle perished, and Shen Long appeared, a smile on his face.

The Ganjin Needle truly lives up to its reputation as Spirit Treasure; it makes killing Fourth-Rank Spirit Beast much easier.

He set up the Gold-Magnetic Formation to deal with the fourth-order Flood Dragon. It would be best if he could find Fourth-Rank Spirit Beast, but it wouldn't matter if he couldn't. He could just kill as many Fourth-Rank Spirit Beast as possible and use their Demon Core to exchange for cultivation resources.

The Ice Flood Dragon has consumed a total of four fourth-tier ice-attribute Demon Core. It would be best if it had a fourth-tier Flood Dragon Demon Core, but it wouldn't have much of an impact if it didn't. It's impossible for all fourth-tier Flood Dragon in the Gan Yang Realm to advance by consuming high-tier Demon Core of the same type. Fourth-tier Demon Core of the same attribute are also acceptable, although the effect will be slightly less.

Shen Long summoned a Cyan Jade Bottle and collected their Essence Soul.

He disposed of the Silver Giant Turtle's corpse on the spot, but found neither the Thunder-Absorbing Bead nor the Thunder-Guiding Bead. He then collected the Demon Beast's corpse and hid away.

Sun and Moon Island, the General Headquarters Sun and Moon Palace.

In a Quiet Manor, Chu Buyu, Mu Shanshan, and Xu Xin sat around Zhang Qing stone table, sipping tea and chatting.

"Junior Sister Mu has also advanced to the Nascent Soul Realm, making our Sun and Moon Palace even stronger."

Xu Xin said with a smile.

"Thanks to Senior Brother Xu's help, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to overcome my Inner Demon Tribulation so easily."

Mu Shanshan expressed her gratitude, then changed her tone and said, "Junior Sister Chu, I heard that the Barbarian Race has offered a large reward for your capture and that of a male cultivator. Is it Senior Brother Xu?"

"It wasn't me. I wasn't in the East Hua Cultivation World at the time. Maybe it was Junior Sister Chu's friend!"

Xu Xin asked, puzzled.

The Barbarian Race have issued a hefty reward for the capture of two Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivators, one of whom is Chu Buyu. This is no secret; the news has already spread.

Do I need to report to you about what I do?

Chu Buyu's tone was icy.

"Junior Sister Chu, that's not what we meant. We were just asking out of curiosity. If you don't want to answer, that's fine too."

Xu Xin said.

"You guys chat! I have something to take care of."

Chu Buyu got up and left.

Xu Xin frowned, hesitated, and said nothing.

······

Time flies, and twenty years have passed.

In a certain azure sea, a streak of Red Escape Light appeared on the distant horizon, then stopped after a flash.

The Escape Light vanished, revealing a red flying boat shimmering with light. The Nine-Year-Old Rogue Cultivator and a plump Blue-Skirted Matron stood atop the Red Flying Boat.

"Huh, it seems like Demon Beast is undergoing tribulation."

The Blue-Skirted Matron let out a soft exclamation and looked southwest, where she could see some silver lightning.

"Demon Beast undergoing tribulation? Let's go take a look."

The Nine-Year-Old Rogue Cultivator made a hand seal, and the Red Flying Boat lit up with a red light, heading southwest.

Not long after, the Red Flying Boat came to a stop. Ahead was a Desolate Island shrouded in white mist. Two huge Thunder Cloud floated in the sky, with lightning flashing and thunder roaring, and streaks of silver lightning striking down.

The two Thunder Cloud were dozens of miles apart and could not affect each other.

"Formation! Is a fellow cultivator staying here?"

The Nine-Year-Old Rogue Cultivator's gaze was filled with surprise and uncertainty.

"Get out of here right now, or don't blame me for being impolite."

A cold male voice rang out.

"We meant no harm; we were just passing through."

The Blue-Skirted Matron began to explain.

"Leave if you mean no harm, or you will be killed without mercy."

The man's voice was completely devoid of emotion.

As soon as he finished speaking, a powerful Divine Sense swept out from the island, quickly passing over the bodies of the Nine-Year-Old Rogue Cultivator and the Blue-Skirted Matron.

"Nascent Soul Late Stage, a great cultivator! Fellow Daoist, please don't misunderstand, we'll leave immediately."

The Nine-Year-Old Rogue Cultivator was startled; this Divine Sense was far too powerful. Only Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator could possess such a strong Divine Sense.

He made a hand seal, Red Flying Boat lit up with a dazzling red light, retracing its steps and leaving the place.

Shen Long and Shen Hai stood atop a high peak, with the Hundred-Eyed Golden Cicada perched in front of Shen Long.

For more than twenty years, Shen Long used the Monster Luring Grass to hunt and kill Demon Beast, eliminating a large number of Fourth-Rank Spirit Beast, but not a single fourth-tier Flood Dragon.

After consuming the fourth fourth-tier ice-attribute Demon Core, the Ice Flood Dragon successfully attracted Lightning Tribulation and broke through to the fourth tier. After consuming the fourth Wind-Attribute Fourth-Order Demon Core, the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove also attracted Lightning Tribulation and broke through to the fourth tier. As for the Tree Man, it consumed the Crystal Core of the third fourth-tier Wood Demon and broke through to the fourth tier, successfully withstanding the Lightning Tribulation and advancing to the fourth tier.

Thunder rumbled incessantly, and Lightning Tribulation struck down one after another.

Half an hour later, a Thunder Cloud rolled and surged, producing arcs of blue, green, and red electricity, transforming into a Three-Colored Lightning Cloud.

"Three-Colored Divine Lightning!"

Shen Long's expression was solemn. This was brought by the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove. It had just hatched and its Bloodline Purity had already reached level three. But that wasn't the main point. The Nine-Headed Ghost Dove was Ancient Great Demon only existed in ancient books. The Nine-Headed Ghost Dove had never appeared in the Gan Yang Realm.

The Three-Colored Lightning Cloud churned and surged, and a thick bolt of tricolored lightning struck down, heading straight for the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove.

A harsh, piercing noise rang out, and a Black Hurricane swept out, heading straight for it.

A deafening explosion rang out, and tri-colored lightning engulfed the figure of the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove.

Soon, a second three-colored lightning bolt struck down, even larger than the first. At the same time, another Thunder Cloud churned and surged, transforming into a thick Silver Thunder Python, exuding an aura of destruction.

The Silver Thunder Python swooped down from the sky, heading straight for the Ice Flood Dragon.

A deafening dragon roar resounded, and a white sound wave swept out, quickly passing through the Silver Thunder Python's body. The Silver Thunder Python's body exploded, transforming into a huge silver lightning bolt that engulfed a large area.

After a while, a dragon's roar that resounded through the heavens and earth rang out, and the Ice Flood Dragon flew from afar and landed in front of Shen Long.

Its body was covered in bloodstains and many scales had fallen off, but it was not seriously injured. Its physical body was exceptionally strong, and ordinary lightning power could not harm it at all.

Shen Long took out a Mystic Ice Jade Lotus Pill, fed it to the Ice Flood Dragon, and then put it back into his Spirit Beast Bracelet.

At that moment, a huge ball of tri-colored lightning shot into the sky, and the ground trembled slightly.

When the Golden-Winged Wind Peng and the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove hatched, their Bloodline Purity was three. Both attracted three -Three-Colored Divine Lightning when they broke through to the fourth rank. The difference was that the Golden-Winged Wind Peng attracted two Three-Colored Divine Lightning, while the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove attracted three Three-Colored Divine Lightning.

Before the tricolored lightning had dissipated, a gust of wind swept out, and the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove flew over. Its body was covered in blood and flesh, and in some places, white bones could be vaguely seen.

The Nine-Headed Ghost Dove successfully advanced to the fourth rank and grew a fourth head.

"Owner!"

The Nine-Headed Ghost Dove could speak human language after advancing to the fourth rank, when its Bloodline Purity reached level five.

"Take good care of yourself, I'm looking forward to seeing how you do."

Shen Long took out a Mystic Ice Jade Lotus Pill, fed it to the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove, and then put it back into his Spirit Beast Bracelet.

He entered the Ten Thousand Beast Tower and came to the Ten Thousand Beast Stele, where the information had been changed.

Shen Long's Spirit Beast Spirit Bird, and Spirit Insect have all advanced to the fourth rank. The Golden-Winged Wind Peng and the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove have Bloodline Purity of five, while the Iron Tail Scorpion, the Green-Eyed Spirit Fox, the Ice Flood Dragon, and the Tree Man have Bloodline Purity of four. If this gets out, Shen Long will definitely be hunted down.

Over the years, Shen Long has killed many Fourth-Rank Spirit Beast. Without exception, their Bloodline Purity was only three, and Shen Long currently has no Spirit Beast, Spirit Insect, Spirit Bird with Bloodline Purity of three.

"Just as I expected, the Bloodline Purity has increased."

Shen Long spoke to himself, his expression agitated.

As a Spirit Controller, he knew very well what it meant for the Bloodline Purity of Spirit Beast Spirit Insect, Spirit Bird to increase. When both were fourth-tier Spirit Bird using Wind Evasion Technique, the Golden-Winged Wind Peng's casting range far exceeded that of ordinary fourth-tier Spirit Bird. That was the difference.

Shen Long changed his appearance, put away the Formation, summoned the Sea-Crossing Boat, and boarded it, with Shen Hai following behind.

With a flick of his wrist, the Sea-Crossing Boat emitted a blinding blue light and soared into the sky, quickly disappearing into the horizon.

More than a month later, Shen Long and Shen Hai appeared on the streets of Golden Flood Dragon Marketplace, where pedestrians flocked.

Back at Green Bamboo Courtyard, Shen Long took out a red Communication Disk, cast a spell, and Song Yan's voice rang out. "Senior Shen, we've finally made contact with you. Senior Ye from Medicine King Valley is looking for you."

"Senior Ye? Is it Ye Hongyao? How did she know I was in Golden Flood Dragon Marketplace?"

Shen Long frowned and asked.

"It's her. I don't know why she's in Golden Flood Dragon Marketplace. She somehow found out I know you and sent someone to tell me to contact you so she can let you know she's looking for you."

Song Yan said.

"Okay, I'll contact her later."

Shen Long said, putting away the Communication Disk.

"I didn't tell anyone I was going to the North Sea Cultivation World! It must be a coincidence!"

Shen Long was talking to himself.

He went into a Cultivation Room and sat down to meditate and regulate his breathing.

As darkness fell, the number of pedestrians on the street increased rather than decreased.

Shen Hai opened the courtyard gate and walked out. There were no pedestrians on the street. Shen Long, having reverted to his true form, also went out. Shen Hai returned to Green Bamboo Courtyard and closed the gate.

A quarter of an hour later, Shen Long appeared at the entrance of the Golden Cicada Pavilion, took out his token to open the restriction, pushed open the door and went inside. There were more than thirty Sound Transmission Talisman floating inside the room.

He checked them one by one, and found that most of the Sound Transmission Talisman were sent by Ye Hongyao.

He took out a red Communication Disk, cast a spell, and Ye Hongyao's joyful voice came through the Communication Disk: "Fellow Daoist Shen, it's been a long time! Where are you?"

"I'm at the Golden Cicada Pavilion, just got back. I heard from my Young Friend Song that you were looking for me. Is there something you need?"

Shen Long asked.

"I currently live in Hongyao Garden, not far from the Golden Cicada Pavilion. Come to Hongyao Garden; I've got something you'll definitely like."

Ye Hongyao said.
