Chapter 497: Starting to have great luck

In Fire Persimmon Mountain.

The battle to encircle and suppress the Ten Thousand Year Fire Essence had reached the most critical moment.

"Bad, it's going to escape, catch it quickly!" Zhou Nongying exclaimed.

The magic array trapping the Fire Essence, because it bore too much of the aftermath of the battle, was full of cracks everywhere.

The Ten Thousand Year Fire Essence, after a fierce battle, fell into a trough, its fighting spirit and morale fell severely, and it did not want to fight anymore, choosing to escape.

Zhou Nongying chased after it.

Ning Jufan and the second Jin Dan ancestor of the Zhou family flanked it from left and right.

Just as they were about to fail to catch up and let the Ten Thousand Year Fire Essence escape, a walnut suddenly shot down from high altitude.

The walnut scattered emerald light, hitting the top of the Ten Thousand Year Fire Essence's head.

Seeing this scene, Ning Jufan's eyes twitched, and he subconsciously slowed down his pace.

The other Jin Dan ancestor of the Zhou family arrived at the side of the Ten Thousand Year Fire Essence first.

The Ten Thousand Year Fire Essence did not move, falling into the magma, floating and sinking.

"Terrible." Ning Jufan called out bad in his heart. He remembered Unlike Ning Zhuo's instructions; the latter really needed this Ten Thousand Year Fire Essence.

Now it was about to fall into the hands of the Zhou family Jin Dan; if he wanted to redeem it, he would definitely spend more.

Just when Ning Jufan was blaming himself, the Ten Thousand Year Fire Essence suddenly opened its eyes and erupted with a desperate strike.

Boom!

A terrifying explosion occurred, and the magma formed a stormy sea in an instant.

The Zhou family Jin Dan ancestor was wrapped in scorching flames all over his body in an instant.

He let out a shrill scream.

In an instant, all the defensive means he activated were burned to nothing, and his robes and armor turned into nothingness.

His flesh and blood vanished in the orange-red flames in a blink of an eye, and the exposed skeleton was also roasted into charcoal, collapsing inch by inch.

Just two breaths later, a Jin Dan cultivator vanished into thin air.

And after killing the enemy, the Ten Thousand Year Fire Essence was dim and lusterless, almost shrinking to the size of a fist.

Ning Jufan was full of vigilance, followed closely, and used talismans to seal it successfully.

"I got the Ten Thousand Year Fire Essence!"

"So dangerous..."

Even after a long fierce battle and being in the volcano, Ning Jufan felt a chill in his heart.

If he hadn't hesitated just now, the one suffering disaster would probably be him.

Meng Kui, who had been sitting upright on the throne of the Magma Xian Gong from beginning to end, slowly closed his eyes, no longer peering into the volcanic battlefield.

His expression was unhappy, feeling a pity.

To avoid suspicion, he never participated in the war personally, just to prevent the Zhu family from pursuing it afterwards. Ning Jufan was his main target. Meng Kui threw the walnut and secretly held back, so the injury of the Ten Thousand Year Fire Essence was not so serious.

In this battle, Ning Jufan performed very conspicuously, even though there was a Nascent Soul level cultivator like Lin Bufan participating in the war beside him.

"His demon pet Fire-Melting Demon Ape seems to have started practicing..."

"Sigh."

Meng Kui sighed secretly.

At the critical moment just now, Ning Jufan hesitated a step, causing him to miss the final counterattack of the Ten Thousand Year Fire Essence, making Meng Kui's calculation fail.

Of course, Meng Kui was not without gains—the Zhou family lost a Jin Dan cultivator.

"If before, I could successfully weaken Ning Jufan's fate, he would definitely suffer."

"What kind of magic treasure does he have on him that can protect fate?"

"Did the Nando royal family give it to him secretly?"

No wonder Meng Kui guessed so.

Because before this, he had used the Peach Fate Walnut to smash Ning Jufan's head, and the effect was very obvious.

At that time, Ning Jufan obviously had no magic treasure to protect his fate.

Lin Bufan took a deep breath and cast magic again.

The magma that was shaking continuously calmed down rapidly under his magic.

The great array opened slowly.

Zhou Nongying was full of grief, flying to meet Ning Jufan and Lin Bufan.

He was too late to mourn the fallen cultivator of the same clan, and his heart had already begun to speculate on the situation in Fire Persimmon Xiancheng in the future.

Since the battle of the Lava Xian Gong, the Zheng family was out, and the Ning family occupied the Zheng family's territory, rising up and becoming the primary force under the City Lord's Mansion.

Generally speaking, the Zhou family, as an old family in Fire Persimmon Xiancheng, should suppress people like the Ning family who came from behind.

However, the situation in Fire Persimmon Xiancheng is very special.

The Meng family's intention to occupy this place is a more urgent and powerful enemy.

Previously, due to Zhu Xuanji's means, the three families of Zhou, Zheng, and Ning had formed an alliance with the royal family, making it difficult for the Zhou family to change their tune.

In this case, the Ning family was strongly supported by the Zhu family, and it was difficult for the Zhou family to make a move.

In addition, the Ning family produced Unlike Ning Zhuo, a disciple who exceeded the norm, and showed Jin Dan level combat power in the battle of the Lava Xian Gong. Coupled with Ning Jufan's own powerful combat power, this made it even more impossible for the Zhou family to make a move.

Therefore, after Unlike Ning Zhuo separated the family, Zhou Nongying even visited and showed favor in person, letting Zhou family cultivators actively help Unlike Ning Zhuo set up arrays.

All of the above were when the two Jin Dan of the Zhou family were still alive.

Now, the Zhou family only has one Jin Dan, Zhou Nongying, left, and the situation of the Zhou family has deteriorated further, its strength has been severely damaged, and it is very likely to become a vassal of the Ning family.

Outside Fire Persimmon Mountain.

Shen Lingzhu and Zhu Xuanji also learned the result of this battle.

"The Ten Thousand Year Fire Essence finally fell into Ning Jufan's hands. Unlike Ning Zhuo is worthy of being the son of the catastrophe; this strength of fate is amazing." Shen Lingzhu sighed.

Zhu Xuanji pondered: "Meng Kui finally succeeded, the Zhou family lost a Jin Dan cultivator, and our strength in Fire Persimmon Xiancheng has declined a lot."

"In the future, the Ning family will be the main force hindering Meng Kui."

"It seems that we need to increase support for the Ning family."

Shen Lingzhu nodded in agreement, smiling: "I just added luck to Ning Jufan, and he had our assistance, which can be considered reasonable."

Zhu Xuanji: "Not to mention anything else, just say the Ten Thousand Medicine Sect, the Ning family is a close ally of my Zhu family. Sigh, if Unlike Ning Zhuo were not the son of the catastrophe, it would be much more convenient for us to act."

The two communicated for a while, then hid their figures and quietly approached Fire Persimmon Xiancheng.

Liangzhu Kingdom.

Canglin Xiancheng.

Three Generals Camp.

"Neigh!" Liu Er's mount suddenly stumbled and stepped into a dirt pit.

Liu Er was practicing soldiers with all his might, and caught off guard, along with the horse falling to the ground, he was also thrown to the ground.

Although Liu Er stood up quickly, the movement caused was quite large, and the soldiers gathered around to check.

"Big brother, are you okay?" Zhang Hei ran over first and asked with concern.

"I'm fine." Liu Er shook his head and frowned at the ground.

Guan Hong also rode over, inspected the scene, and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's just a dark pit on the ground, which happened to be stepped on by the horse's hoof."

Liu Er practiced soldiers for a long time, cooperated with the soldiers, and constantly trained the battle array, so the horse was exhausted and fell to the ground after stepping into the dark pit.

Liu Er fell along with it because he organized the battle array and concentrated almost all his spirit, so he didn't react in time.

Liu Er patted his armor, led the horse, and rode it again: "Continue practicing soldiers!"

With his order, the Three Generals Camp began training again.

However, Liu Er always frowned, feeling a huge void in his heart. "What is this terrible feeling?"

"Could it be that Mu Lan forced Unlike Ning Zhuo to start dual cultivation?"

"The Military Advisor is also! He leaves the camp every day and doesn't show his shadow."

"Sigh, if before, I promised him the quota, he should be practicing those mechanical soldiers of his here now, right?"

Unlike Ning Zhuo had already entered the Ten Thousand Mile Dragon.

He slowly raised his head, straightened his upper body, and no longer leaned over the table.

On the table in front of him were layers of drawings, and on the drawings were various mechanical structures.

Canglin Xiancheng.

"Distinguished guest, please walk slowly." The shop assistant in the shop respectfully sent Unlike Ning Zhuo away.

Unlike Ning Zhuo walked out of the All-Book Building leisurely.

Please... you... collect 6... 9... book.... bar....!

He had just entered the All-Book Building to select a cultivation method for Meng Yehu.

Meng Yehu's spirituality was higher than Yuan Dasheng's and could practice cultivation methods. Unlike Ning Zhuo made a careful selection on this trip and finally selected a cultivation method for Meng Yehu.

This cultivation method was closely linked to Meng Yehu's innate talent and was called the Night Travel Piercing Back Map.

Returning to the Ten Thousand Mile Dragon, Unlike Ning Zhuo buried his head in designing a mechanical body for Meng Yehu.

In all the design drafts, Meng Yehu was a tiger-headed human body, trying his best to match the spirituality and restore his original appearance.

Unlike Ning Zhuo mainly focused on his innate talent Night Shadow Yin Evil to design the mechanical body for him.

In terms of materials, Ghost Shadow Bamboo was the most suitable. After all, it was the companion of Night Shadow Yin Evil.

But Unlike Ning Zhuo didn't have much Ghost Shadow Bamboo, and this kind of treasure was relatively rare, so he wouldn't use it now. Unlike Ning Zhuo had long decided to use other treasures first and consider it when the time was ripe.

"I don't know much about Night Shadow Yin Evil, and Meng Yehu's cultivation method was chosen as the Night Travel Piercing Back Map, which has nothing to do with the Five Elements."

Unlike Ning Zhuo conceived for a long time, thinking until his head grew a bit big.

One plan was to use Ghost Shadow Talismans as the main one. Whenever Meng Yehu displayed the innate talent Night Shadow Yin Evil, it would trigger the Ghost Shadow Talisman, forming countless pitch-black ghost shadows, instantly forming an army of dozens of people. Able to bully the few with the many, oh no, to carry out a just siege.

The second plan was to use mechanical parts to change the form of Night Shadow Yin Evil, turning it into a sky full of evil spirits, corroding strong enemies, and causing illusions in the enemy's vision and spirit, confusing reality.

The third plan was to set up a blade array on Meng Yehu's body, which could form thousands of night shadow blades once triggered, cutting sharply and slicing the enemy to death.

The fourth plan was to fully exert the Night Travel Piercing Back Map, equipping Meng Yehu with a set of mechanical accessories, allowing it to double its speed in dark environments, dodging like a ghost, making people unpredictable.

The fifth plan was to set up a Nether Soul-Binding Array, using this magic array as the core, combined with Night Shadow Yin Evil, to bind the enemy's soul. As the number of bound souls increases, Meng Yehu's combat power will also rise.

The sixth plan...

The seventh...

The eighth...

Unlike Ning Zhuo conceived more than twenty small plans, thinking until he was dizzy, and for a time it was difficult to decide, unable to choose.

"Trying one by one is very unrealistic."

"The funds in my hand can't withstand such extravagant experiments."

"I have to choose the most suitable plan."

But the awkward place is right here.

Unlike Ning Zhuo also didn't know what was the most suitable.

He didn't count, it must be verified in the real battlefield to know the answer to this question.

"Sigh!"

Unlike Ning Zhuo sighed deeply, stood up, and wanted to go out for some air.

As a result, this action knocked over the desk, and various design drawings scattered on the ground.

Unlike Ning Zhuo bent down to pick them up, but suddenly his movements froze, because he saw five or six drawings scattered on the ground, just forming a complete form of Meng Yehu.

More importantly, under Unlike Ning Zhuo's mental calculation, this combination plan was really good and had a high possibility of success.

"Really lucky!"

The more Unlike Ning Zhuo pondered, the more he felt that this plan was excellent, and he immediately decided: "Just use this plan!"

Unlike Ning Zhuo was vigorous and resolute, immediately flew out of the mechanical dragon, and searched in major markets and shops in Canglin Xiancheng, scattering large amounts of spirit stones in his hand, exchanging for the treasures he wanted.

"Thanks to this great war!"

"Canglin Xiancheng was built into a rear base, so I could buy what I wanted to buy here."

"In ordinary Canglin Xiancheng, the variety of treasures would definitely not be so many."

While Unlike Ning Zhuo was working hard for Meng Yehu, Sun Lingtong lay in the Fetal Breath Spirit Boat, bored.

"This cultivation method has a thousand good things, but there is one thing that makes me extremely dissatisfied!"

"This is too boring!"

Sun Lingtong felt bored, became more and more unbearable, and began to move essence blood randomly, wanting to assist the Heaven-Born Earth-Raised Fetal Breath Great Law.

As a result...

The essence blood ran around in his body, making him immediately suffer injuries.

Internal organs were damaged, and a large amount of bleeding began in his body.

"Terrible, terrible."

"Where is Little Zhuo, save me."

Internal blood surged, immediately blocking Sun Lingtong's mouth and nose.

He gradually suffocated, and at this critical moment, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and had a deeper understanding of the "Heaven-Born Earth-Raised Fetal Breath Great Law".

"So that's it."

Sun Lingtong was overjoyed, having a sense of sudden enlightenment, his heart filled with the joy of epiphany.

The next moment, the scriptures of the Heaven-Born Earth-Raised Fetal Breath Great Law bloomed with more radiance.

Sun Lingtong not only turned danger into safety, but also doubled his efficiency.

Unlike Ning Zhuo finished selecting the treasures, and didn't refine them himself, but found Jin Li again.

He wanted to ask Jin Li for help, to process these treasures, and to build some mechanical parts.

Jin Li laughed: "Little friend Ning, you came just in time. The royal capital sent several artifact refining cultivators to help me."

"They just arrived yesterday and are coming to me to refine artifacts today."

"Tell them your requirements."

"According to their ability, although not as good as me, they will definitely be able to help you do this."

Unlike Ning Zhuo bowed to thank him, and sent a batch of treasures to Jin Li as a thank-you gift.

Jin Li laughed loudly, excitedly patting Unlike Ning Zhuo's shoulder: "Little friend Unlike Ning Zhuo, you are really polite, making you spend money."

People who are willing to spend money are mostly very popular.

With the help of Jin Li's subordinates, Unlike Ning Zhuo obtained all the semi-finished products that night.

"Many hands make light work, if I relied on myself alone, it would take at least half a year to reach this degree."

Unlike Ning Zhuo felt that spending money and giving gifts were all quite worth it.

He simply stayed up all night, building up the various mechanical parts.

Meng Yehu's body had a blurred prototype.

When Unlike Ning Zhuo took out Meng Yehu's spirituality ball and placed it in, the mechanical Meng Yehu turned on by itself not long after.

He didn't look around, nor did he check his new shell, but bowed to Unlike Ning Zhuo, saying in a low tone: "Father God!"
