Chapter 5

【Race】: Ice Rock Blue Python

【Cultivation Realm】: Early Stage First Rank Minor Demon

【Physical Realm】: Perfect Second Rank Demon Warrior

【Current Task】: Sign in at the territory you are guarding.

【Task Reward】: Long Di Palace, Wan Ling Body Origin (Top-tier King Body, fusing the origin grants the Wan Ling Body).

【Guarded Force Level】: Two-Star (Host's cultivation speed increased by 20 times!)

"The race has undergone atavism from the previous Bai Shuang Ice Snake to an Ice Rock Blue Python!"

Long Yuan nodded.

The Bai Shuang Ice Snake was of a very low grade, belonging to the lowest level of existence among demon beasts, not even counting as a weakling!

But the Ice Rock Blue Python was much stronger in both strength and defense, and even the cold energy within its body had become extremely terrifying!

"And the physical cultivation has also reached the Perfect Second Rank Demon Warrior!"

This meant that his body's strength and defense had reached the level of a Perfect Second Rank Demon Warrior; anyone with a cultivation lower than the Perfect Second Rank could not break his defense.

But the spiritual energy within his body remained unchanged, still at the Early Stage First Rank Minor Demon!

"One instance of bloodline atavism has increased my physical cultivation so much; it seems that evolution and atavism are the fastest ways to increase strength!"

"Wait? Host's cultivation speed increased by 20 times?"

Long Yuan widened his eyes.

20 times?

This increase was somewhat perverted!

He couldn't help but want to try it out.

Subsequently, he began to absorb the Emperor-grade top-tier technique "Azure Heaven Dragon Emperor Art" rewarded by the system.

As for the "Azure Cloud Art",

it was a human cultivation technique!

A First Rank Minor Demon absorbs the essence of heaven and earth to transform it into their own spiritual energy!

Accompanying his cultivation,

Boom—!

The vast essence of heaven and earth swarmed toward his body and began to enter his system.

His realm began to climb rapidly:

Early stage, mid stage, late stage, peak, perfection!

The Emperor-grade technique combined with a 20-fold cultivation speed

made his cultivation efficiency terrifyingly high!

Boom!

In just over an hour,

his cultivation climbed directly to the Early Stage Second Rank Demon Warrior,

and his body length transformed to a terrifying 40 meters or so!

"Hahaha! The feeling of cheating is truly comfortable!"

Long Yuan laughed.

If he had had the opportunity to bind to a family a dozen years ago,

he would probably have become the hegemon of this world by now!

"Chu Tianyang's injuries cannot recover that quickly; I will continue to cultivate during this time!"

Long Yuan opened his mouth and spat out a porcelain bottle.

This was a Third Rank elixir he had swindled from an injured Third Rank human Martial Master once when he spoke human language and played the tiger to eat the pig, but he had never dared to use it, fearing the energy within the elixir would burst his body!

But now, with the Emperor-grade technique,

and his physical cultivation reaching the Perfect Second Rank Demon Warrior, Long Yuan felt it was time to consume this elixir!

Just as Long Yuan was cultivating,

outside the cold pond where he was located,

a dozen figures surrounded the place.

"Great Elder, judging by the bloodstains here, Chu Tianyang must have hidden in the cold pond!"

Someone looked at the bloodstains and said to Ma Zhiyong.

"Hehehe, thinking that hiding in the cold pond can escape my Ma family's pursuit? Simply wishful thinking!"

"Men, immediately ambush around the cold pond. As soon as he shows his face, surround and annihilate him!"

"Also, send people to check the surroundings for other passages. Surround everything for me; this time I will make sure he cannot escape even with wings!"

"After this, Qingyangzhen will completely become the territory of my Ma family!"

Ma Zhiyong held a black long spear in one hand,

stroked his beard with the other, and sneered.

"Yes!"

The others responded with excitement,

and immediately began to make arrangements!

Ma Zhiyong led people to lurk in the bushes around the cold pond,

his eyes staring at the location of the cold pond like a hawk.

A night passed, until the next morning,

Splash—!

The cold pond suddenly made a sound of water.

Ma Zhiyong's eyes lit up, and he said coldly: "Finally couldn't hold it in anymore?"

Subsequently, he led a group of people to leap up from the bushes,

their weapons pointing straight at the cold pond, cold light radiating everywhere!

Long Yuan swayed his body,

shot up from the pond, and his massive body landed steadily on the shore.

He looked at the surrounding crowd with cold eyes.

He had sensed these people while underwater,

but he didn't take them seriously at all!

At this moment, Chu Tianyang also climbed up from underwater. Although his injuries had not fully recovered, they had recovered seven or eight parts under the effect of those herbs!

"Hahaha, Chu Tianyang, are you finally willing to come out?"

Ma Zhiyong was startled at first,

but upon seeing Chu Tianyang, he grinned hideously.

Without wasting words,

he took the initiative to attack,

executing his movement technique, flying over like a startled swan,

and slashed at the other party with a long sword wrapped in spiritual energy, cold light radiating everywhere.

And behind him,

other Ma family members also charged over, clamoring!

"Ma family!"

Chu Tianyang gritted his teeth.

Although Qingyangzhen is not large,

it has three forces: the Chu family, the Ma family, and the Zhao family.

But recently, the Ma family ancestor Ma Bangguo suddenly broke through to Third Rank Martial Master, and several elders who were originally only First Rank Martial Practitioners also broke through to Second Rank Martial Warriors,

breaking the tripartite balance of power in Qingyangzhen in one fell swoop.

And Ma Bangguo had great ambition;

after breaking through to Third Rank Martial Master, he immediately launched heavy attacks on the other two major families, instantly plunging the Chu and Zhao families into a dangerous situation.

The Chu and Zhao families had to take corresponding measures,

otherwise both families would perish! ===== CHAPTER 6 =====
