Chapter 171

"Because of this, the Black-Armored Glazed Beast perfectly avoided being hunted by high-level cultivators."

"The Black-Armored Glazed Beast is very useful for cultivators at the Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation stage and below, but for cultivators at the Spirit Refining and Void Returning stage, it is tasteless to eat but a pity to discard."

"Naturally, there are no Spirit Refining and Void Returning cultivators who specifically go to hunt Black-Armored Glazed Beasts, after all, one has to go deep into the Forbidden Zone of Life."

"The resources obtained from killing a Black-Armored Glazed Beast are not worth the loss."

"Rather than pursuing a Black-Armored Glazed Beast worth ten thousand contribution points, a Spirit Refining and Void Returning cultivator could kill any Demon Emperor and exchange it for hundreds of thousands of contribution points."

"Because of this, the Black-Armored Glazed Beast has become the strongest enemy for cultivators at the Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation stage and below, and also the monster that Spirit Refining and Void Returning cultivators are least willing to deal with."

"It can also be considered a kind of survival wisdom."

Jiang Yan shook his head.

As far as he was concerned, even if the Black-Armored Glazed Beast was very precious, to say he was willing to go deep into the Forbidden Zone of Life for it, that would truly be a huge loss.

The Forbidden Zone of Life was very dangerous even for cultivators at the Void Refining and Dao Harmonizing stage; to make a trip for a Black-Armored Glazed Beast that he had absolutely no use for...

Unless Jiang Yan had lost his mind.

If anything went wrong, it would be a total loss.

However...

If one of the Black-Armored Glazed Beasts evolved into a Nine-Origin Spirit Beast, then that would be a different story.

Never mind Spirit Refining and Void Returning cultivators, even Void Refining and Dao Harmonizing cultivators would have to risk entering the forbidden zone to catch it.

106. Seeing Seeing Zhongli: Is there a difference between the Flood Dragon of the Nine Netherworlds and this dragon of mine?

The Far West has also been passed by everyone.

The Black-Armored Glazed Beast is indeed very tempting, but one must have the life to obtain it!

Entering the Forbidden Zone of Life, the relationship between prey and hunter will instantly reverse.

Moreover, their own strength is not very strong.

Isn't going in just delivering food?

"The resources of the Eastern Ocean are extremely abundant, almost to the point of being richer than the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Mountain Range."

Jiang Yan continued:

"You should also be clear about this; after all, things in the ocean are always more numerous and precious than those on land."

"However, if you want to go to the Eastern Ocean, you must also be mentally prepared."

"Going under the sea to collect resources is inherently fraught with difficulties, and besides, there is an extremely powerful Flood Dragon on the ocean side."

Hearing this, Seeing Seeing Zhongli immediately became interested.

"A Flood Dragon?"

Jiang Yan nodded slightly and continued:

"A snake cultivates for a thousand years to become a python, a python cultivates for a thousand years to become a viper, a viper cultivates for a thousand years to become a flood dragon, and a flood dragon cultivates for a thousand years to become a dragon."

"And in the Eastern Ocean, there is a black flood dragon."

"Its name is Ao Dong, and it has the ability to overturn mountains and seas, and to summon wind and rain; it has the cultivation of the peak of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation, and is one of the most powerful demon kings in the entire Nine Netherworlds Secret Realm."

"Simply put, if the patriarch of the Howling Moon Heavenly Wolf clan were to face it, he would be bleeding within ten moves."

"Within the same realm, there are also differences in levels."

"And Ao Dong is clearly one of the strongest among them; the talent of a flood dragon has always been one of the strongest among all demon clans."

"A powerful physique, innate talent and supernatural powers, and true essence countless times larger than ordinary cultivators."

"A flood dragon is also the demon beast that cultivators are most afraid of encountering, but also the one they most desire to obtain."

"A flood dragon's tendons, blood, heart, core, horns, scales, etc., are all top-tier materials."

"It is far stronger than the Black-Armored Glazed Beast; it is truly a treasure from head to toe."

"The contribution hall's recycling price for Ao Dong is 150,000 for a complete corpse, and 500,000 for a live one."

"But basically, no one has ever thought of such a thing."

Hearing this, Seeing Seeing Zhongli and the others had a headache.

To the north is the Howling Moon Heavenly Wolf clan, to the west is the Forbidden Zone of Life, and the east is even better.

There is one of the strongest demon kings in the entire Nine Netherworlds Secret Realm guarding it.

I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to withstand a single move even if they were tied together.

"In other words, if we go to the east, we might face a flood dragon that has cultivated for at least three thousand years?"

Lady Lady Ningguang rubbed her brow, looking at Jiang Yan with some worry.

"No, Ao Dong has likely cultivated for a full ten thousand years."

Jiang Yan shook his head and told this cruel truth.

"The thousand-year time I mentioned is just the best-case scenario; Ao Dong clearly doesn't have that kind of talent, otherwise it wouldn't have been stuck at the peak of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation."

"But at the same time, you must also understand that in the cultivation world, the wealthiest clan is the Dragon Clan."

"Ao Dong has the bloodline of the Dragon Clan and naturally loves to collect all kinds of rare treasures; if you can kill it and collect resources from it..."

"It's no exaggeration to say that a million should be within reach."

A million contribution points...

A top-tier spirit weapon only costs 200,000!

Lady Lady Ningguang felt a pang of pain in her heart, looking toward the east, feeling somewhat uncomfortable at the temptation that was within sight but out of reach.

"It is rumored that Ao Dong is the illegitimate son of a Horned Dragon at the peak of Spirit Refining and Void Returning in the Nine Netherworlds world back then."

"That Horned Dragon was the ruler of the entire Nine Netherworlds ocean at that time, and had the Long Gong force under its command."

"There were hundreds of millions of shrimp soldiers and crab generals."

"It was also one of the culprits that ravaged the Nine Netherworlds."

"Now, Ao Dong is imitating that Horned Dragon and building a Long Gong in the eastern sea area; exactly how many shrimp soldiers and crab generals it has is currently unknown."

Everyone looked longingly toward the east; over a million contribution points, cross it out...

A peak Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation demon king, or even the strongest one, with a bunch of shrimp soldiers and crab generals under its command.

What's the point of playing with this?

If you go, you die...

The east, west, and north directions are already locked; in the short term, they absolutely do not have the qualifications to set foot there.

Then the remaining...

Everyone looked up toward the south; that was the direction of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Mountain Range.

Miss Miss Ganyu was silent for a moment, then said softly:

"Sect Master, the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Mountain Range... should be the most dangerous, right?"

Jiang Yan nodded slightly.

"Indeed, simply put, in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Mountain Range, there are six demon kings at the peak of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation alone."

"Adding Ao Dong, these seven demon kings at the peak of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation are collectively known as the Seven Kings of the Nine Netherworlds."

"They are the seven strongest at the peak of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation in the entire Nine Netherworlds world."

"As for the rest, there are conservatively estimated to be dozens of great demons at the late stage of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation."

"There are hundreds of great demons at the Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation level."

"There are countless demon beasts at the Essence Refining and Qi Transformation level."

"But at the same time, the resources of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Mountain Range, whether in terms of preciousness or comprehensiveness, are the strongest in the entire Nine Netherworlds Secret Realm."

"Legend has it that there is even the Three-Turn Profound Origin Fruit, which is the main ingredient for pills that can reshape one's physique and allow those without a special physique to be born with one."

"A single Three-Turn Profound Origin Fruit takes a thousand years to be born; it only produces one every thousand years, and one is worth 300,000 contribution points."

"But there are too many demon beasts in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Mountain Range, otherwise it wouldn't be called the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Mountain Range."

"It is the region with the highest comprehensive danger in the entire Nine Netherworlds Secret Realm, and also the most precious resource area."

Having said that, Jiang Yan stopped talking.

The remaining time was left for the disciples to think for themselves.

He had already told them the specific distribution of demon beasts in the four major regions of east, west, north, and south.

How to choose was their business.

Even if they chose to go to the Far West, Jiang Yan would nod.

This exploration was land reclamation; compared to harvesting resources, it was more important for the disciples to recognize the cruelty of the cultivation world.

Where they went didn't matter.
