Returning to the Five Peaks: The Third Tier Black Tiger Demon Beast That Escaped
The South Lake Mountains Land of Five Peaks.
Since he hadn't found any useful information at "Demon-Suppressing Pass," after leaving "Demon-Suppressing Pass" and entering the "South Lake Mountains," Kong Wenxuan decided to first visit the "Land of Five Peaks."
Of course, since the "Flying Peak" in the middle has now been destroyed, the "Land of Five Peaks" has, strictly speaking, been restored to the "Land of Four Peaks".
However, this "Flying Peak" was originally the place where the Fifth Tier Demon Race set up the "spirit medicine Garden", and it was also the place where the Cuckoo Demon Race ambushed and laid an ambush on the Kong Household and the Ya Household.
Although "Flying Peak" has now been destroyed, and the Demon Race's "spirit medicine garden" within it has long been moved away by the Ya Household, leaving little trace.
However, Kong Wenxuan couldn't find any other clues, so after thinking about it, he decided to come and take a look at this "Land of Five Peaks" first.
Let's see if we can find any remaining clues on the collapsed "Flying Peak".
However, when Kong Wenxuan flew to the "Land of Five Peaks" in his "Cuckoo Feather Boat" and saw the situation, he realized that he might have been overthinking things.
The "Flying Peak" in the "Land of Five Peaks" was destroyed in the battle between Ya Zhaoying and the Third Tier Cuckoo Demon Race, triggering underground fire and the eruption of underground rivers, which submerged the collapsed "Flying Peak".
By now, the eruption of subterranean fire and underground river has been quelled, but the collapsed "Flying Peak" has also been destroyed.
No mountain or rock can remain intact despite the alternating destruction caused by the clash of water and fire.
Today, in the "Land of Five Peaks," surrounded by mountains, the "Flying Peak" is no longer there; there is only a large lake, which was probably formed by an eruption of groundwater. As for the eruption of volcanic magma, it has long been extinguished.
Kong Wenxuan was unwilling to give up, and even used the "Black Water Divine Sword" to enter the central lake and search the bottom of the lake. As a result, he found only some broken rocks and solidified volcanic ash, but did not find any trace of the "Flying Peak".
Finally, shaking his head in resignation, Kong Wenxuan wielded the "Black Water Divine Sword" and left the great lake, returning to the shore.
Roar!
As soon as he reached the shore, he heard a tiger's roar coming from the western mountain peak.
The next moment, a golden light burst forth from the western mountain peak and shot straight toward him.
Buzz!
Before Kong Wenxuan could react, the Second Tier Spirit Artifact "Yellow Earth Divine Sword" in his Dantian had already reacted first, flying out of his body and growing larger with a trembling hum, blocking behind Kong Wenxuan and resisting the golden light that shot out.
Boom!
With a deafening roar, the Second Tier Spirit Artifact, the "Yellow Earth Divine Sword," was blasted away.
Kong Wenxuan was also severely injured and suffered a backlash in an instant, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
What is that?
With a startled cry, Kong Wenxuan dared not delay and immediately took out the "Bifang Jade Token" bestowed by the Bifang Commandery and offered it up.
Beep beep!
With a cry from the Bifang, the Bifang statue on the jade tablet seemed to come alive, raising its head, spreading its wings, and dancing. A burst of blue-red starlight erupted from it, enveloping and protecting Kong Wenxuan.
The next moment, an even thicker and sharper golden light shot from the western mountain peak, directly hitting the blue-red starlight, but it failed to shake the starlight's protective barrier in the slightest.
Seeing that the "Bifang Jade Token" was so effective, Kong Wenxuan finally felt relieved. He recalled the "Yellow Earth Divine Sword" that had been blasted away, and then took out a few healing pills.
After stabilizing his Law Power, Spiritual Consciousness, and injuries, he looked up at the direction from which the golden light had come.
Immediately, he saw a Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast charging down from the western mountain peak, pouncing towards his direction!
"Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast!"
Kong Wenxuan's expression changed drastically. Although he had expected it, he was certain that he would encounter Third Tier Demon Beast, or even higher-tier Demon Beast, when he ventured deep into the "South Lake Mountains" to search for the Demon Race's secret stronghold.
This was also the main reason why Kong Wenxuan hesitated when the Bifang Commandery gave him this task, and only agreed after the Prefect bestowed upon him the "Bifang Jade Token" that could be used for self-defense.
However, Kong Wenxuan did not expect that he would encounter this Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast as soon as he left Peacock County and entered the "South Lake Mountains" and arrived at the first place to explore!
The "Land of Five Peaks" is very close to the southern border of Peacock County, less than a thousand miles away.
At such close range, Third Tier Demon Beast is entrenched here, yet it hasn't launched an attack on "Demon-Suppressing Pass"?
For a time, Kong Wenxuan was no longer as confident as before about the safety of his Lineage's "Demon-Suppressing Pass".
Roar!
At this moment, the Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast had already rushed down the western mountain peak and reached Kong Wenxuan's vicinity. It raised its head and roared, spewing out large amounts of golden light and energy from its open maw, which bombarded him.
These golden lights and golden energy bombarded the azure-red starlight surrounding Kong Wenxuan, but they were completely blocked and consumed without even causing a ripple, posing no effect or threat to Kong Wenxuan whatsoever.
Seeing this, Kong Wenxuan was completely relieved. The defensive effect of the "Bifang Jade Pendant" bestowed by the Bifang Commandery was even better than he had expected. Thus, he could move more confidently into the depths of the "South Lake Mountains" to search for the secret stronghold of the Demon Race.
Now that he no longer needed to worry about attacks from the Third Tier -Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast, Kong Wenxuan was able to relax and observe the approaching Demon Beast more carefully.
At this moment, he discovered that the attacking Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast did not have an ear.
Judging from the wound at the severed ear, it seemed to have been burned by some powerful flame, leaving a very conspicuous burn scar.
"This scar... I feel like I've seen it before!"
Kong Wenxuan's eyes lit up as he looked at the wound on the severed ear of the attacking Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast, and he quickly recalled his past memories.
He quickly made a discovery. "This Third Tier black tiger demon Demon Beast was one of the Third Tier demon Demon Beast that formed the ' Five Elements Demon Array.' The severed ear and burn scars were left when Ya Zhaoying fought and battled it!"
Back then, after the Du Household fell into the Demon Race, the Third Tier Cuckoo Demon Race who were transformed from Du Household cultivators used five Third Tier Demon Beast to set up a "Five Elements Demon Array" in this "Land of Five Peaks" to ambush Ya Zhaoying.
The five Third Tier Demon Beast at that time were a Third Tier green python Demon Beast, a Third Tier giant tortoise demonic Demon Beast, a Third Tier Flame Sparrow Demon Beast, a Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast, and a Third Tier rock wolf Demon Beast.
Finally, in the fierce battle with Ya Zhaoying, the Third Tier Azure Python Demon Beast and the Third Tier Giant Turtle demon Demon Beast were killed one after another, while the Third Tier Flame Sparrow Demon Beast protected the Du Household family cultivators as they fled. Later, when the Kong Household expanded and established the Peacock County, the Du Household used the out-of-control Third Tier Flame Sparrow Demon Beast to attack the Kong Household's Peacock County Seat under construction, causing the Second Elder Kong Changlan to suffer a severe injury that damaged his very foundation, and he was eventually worn down and died in the Peacock County Seat.
Besides the three dead Third Tier Demon Beast, the other two Third Tier Demon Beast, the Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast and the Third Tier rock wolf Demon Beast, escaped from control after the Third Tier Cuckoo Demon Race was killed.
Kong Wenxuan never expected that he would see the Third Tier black tiger demon Demon Beast that had escaped back then again in this "Land of Five Peaks"!
