Chapter 525: The Demon Lord Shows His Might
Blazing Fire Miasma originally originated from a consumable spell attached to the incomplete body-refining cultivation method "Heavenly Roc Transformation."
It simulated the fierce aura of the fire-type demon roc.
Luo Chen studied this spell very early on, added a large amount of Earth Fire Baleful Aura, and practiced it to the Small Success stage.
This spell was quite practical and quite awkward.
Practical in that, when fighting, once released, it could create a combat environment that perfectly suited his style.
And because of the powerful baleful aura contained within, it had a very strong corrupting effect on the enemy's magic treasures, divine soul, and body.
And the awkward point was that in the early years, this technique had to be used in the state of changing into the Heavenly Roc true body.
Otherwise, once the human body structure inhaled too much baleful aura, it would instead backfire on itself.
Not only that, the proficiency of this technique was extremely difficult to improve; it was not only limited by the number of releases, but also limited by the grade of the baleful aura.
The baleful aura Luo Chen collected in his early years was mostly Tier 1 and Tier 2 Earth Fire Baleful Aura, which couldn't be called quality.
Even if he later integrated Tier 3 Earth Fire Baleful Aura, it was still the most common ordinary baleful aura.
Luo Chen had also spent great effort to let the Zhu Luotian Sect collect precious baleful aura, but unfortunately, there were very few, only bringing him a large amount of Tier 3 Earth Fire Baleful Aura, enriching this means.
The awkward reasons were these.
However!
These problems had gradually been solved over time.
First was the problem that the human body could not release Blazing Fire Miasma. After he forged his natal magic treasure, the Hunyuan Cauldron, he could use this cauldron to nourish the Blazing Fire Miasma.
Under the constant communication of magic power, the body had gradually been able to withstand the impact of the baleful aura in the Blazing Fire Miasma.
Secondly, it was the problem of high-level baleful aura.
In this regard, he obtained a gourd of "Withered-Prosperous True Baleful Aura" from the Yan Alliance, which was a rare baleful aura completely not inferior to the Yan Yang True Baleful Aura.
And it was of the same origin as his source True Fire, the Withered-Prosperous Fire!
In this way, his adaptation and control of the Blazing Fire Miasma went up another level.
Finally, it was that he now switched to practicing the "Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana Sutra."
The domineering and pure fire-attribute magic power allowed him to be like a fish in water in the Blazing Fire Miasma.
It could be said that the current Blazing Fire Miasma could also be completely counted as one of Luo Chen's signature means.
Using this to deal with Yan Nantian's Soul Refining Banner, I think it shouldn't be a big problem.
As for the question of whether it was too unrighteous for Luo Chen to go to the door when Yan Nantian had no grudge against him and had never offended him, and the two didn't even have any intersection?
In this regard, Luo Chen had no moral burden.
Great Dao cultivation has always been like this!
When the robber blocked the road to kill him, there was no talk of grudges.
When Mi Mi Shuhua forcefully recruited him into the Poshan Gang, could Luo Chen say a "no"?
It was precisely under these influences that Luo Chen had gradually become accustomed to this style.
If people don't offend me, I don't offend people?
What an outdated idea!
When he attacked Little Huan Mountain back then, Duan Duan Qiankun hadn't really taken action against him yet.
When he first arrived at Mount Tianlan Immortal City, in order to promote his own Marrow Pill, he used all kinds of means, forcing other pill forces to be miserable.
Could it be said that the Zheng family of Gunlong Ridge, the Danyuan Sect, and the Li family of Qinhua River had provoked Luo Chen before that?
In business matters, killing is the most bloodless.
The reduction in pill revenue meant fewer spirit stones, fewer cultivation resources, and a lower cultivation speed; this was the hatred of blocking the Dao.
Therefore, there were later events such as the Li family of Qinhua River being forced to defect and marry, and the Danyuan Sect repeating itself.
Luo Chen's style had been established long ago.
Vaguely, it was somewhat biased toward the Yuanmo Sect's law of the jungle, believing in the law of the jungle.
Perhaps, this was also why Cheng Cheng Haichang, Cheng Dou, and others would subconsciously think of him as a remnant of the Yuanmo Sect when they first saw Luo Chen!
The temperament was indeed somewhat similar.
Perhaps some people are curious, why is Luo Chen's reputation and evaluation still quite good under such a style?
This has to mention Luo Chen's only gentleness, the gentle means given to his own people!
Gentle internally, fierce externally, and not bullying ordinary cultivators who have no threat.
This style is actually rare in today's cultivation world.
It's just that this time Luo Chen did it more nakedly, more blatantly!
He is not a good person, Yan Nantian is not a good person, it just happened that Cheng Dou was in the middle to bridge the gap, and it was just the right time.
Half a month later.
On Fairy Yaoyue Island.
Shrouded in black mist, it no longer had the beautiful scenery of the past where the moon was invited to the center of the lake and the shadows formed three people.
The area of this island is not large, plus the accompanying freshwater lake, it is only ten miles in radius.
But it is precisely because of this small area that it highlights that it is the essence of the essence of the thirty-six Du Feiyan islands!
The thirty-six islands are mostly Tier 1 or even Tier 2 spirit veins.
Only this small island of Fairy Yaoyue alone possesses a small Tier 3 spirit vein!
In the early years, although this island belonged to a family with three great late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators, in fact, that Tier 3 spirit vein was shared by the entire Du Feiyan Archipelago.
Whoever's cultivator reached the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment could go to the Tier 3 spirit vein to try to form a core and sprint for the Jin Dan stage according to the agreement.
But this benefit had already existed in name only a hundred years ago.
Since Yan Nantian, this True Person Nantian, occupied Fairy Yaoyue Island, the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment cultivators on the thirty-six islands had never had a quiet and safe place to form a core.
Form a core?
You are about to form a core, then where does that leave True Person Nantian?
It was precisely because of this that over the years, even though the Du Feiyan Archipelago had the island-connecting array method bestowed by the Li Canghai Righteous Alliance, which could defend against demon beasts and was a safe place for cultivation, there were still Foundation Establishment powerhouses who went to other places and never returned.
There is no hope of promotion!
Yan Nantian, the nominal master of Du Feiyan, never cared about the thoughts of the people below.
As long as the basic board does not move, he can continue to practice here.
And his basic board is naturally the large population of the Du Feiyan Archipelago and the Tier 3 spirit land of Fairy Yaoyue Island.
At this time, in a quiet room on the island.
A withered, yellow-faced middle-aged man was sitting cross-legged, frantically swallowing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth around him.
In the sea of Qi, a blue Jin Dan was spinning, swallowing the initially refined spiritual power in large mouthfuls.
A powerful aura was suppressed in the body, vaguely about to rise.
"A hundred years of time, healing the wounds, and practicing hard, now I, Yan, am finally going to advance to the fourth level of Jin Dan and reach the mid-stage realm!"
"At that time, unless the Demon Luo Flow sends a late-stage Jin Dan great cultivator, no one will be able to control me."
"I can finally leave this remote place and return to Laoyan Island to restore my Yan family!"
Between the thoughts, the momentum accumulated in the body became stronger and stronger.
The solid realm, like water flowing into a channel, was slowly improving.
Just at this time!
A warning sign exploded from his heart.
Yan Nantian snorted, and the heaven and earth energy pouring in from the outside stagnated.
"The Ten Thousand Soul Array is under attack?"
"Could it be that the powerhouse of the Demon Luo Flow has finally found the door?"
"Is it to escape, or to fight?"
"No, years of accumulation, just at this moment, I must not give up all my previous efforts!"
"The Ten Thousand Soul Array can still block for a while, time is still very abundant."
As his thoughts turned rapidly, the withered yellow-faced man patted his storage bag, and a pill flew out, which he swallowed directly.
The next moment!
The Jin Dan in his body rotated faster, and the stagnant heaven and earth spiritual energy outside surrounded him again, pouring into his body like a swallow returning to its nest.
Outside the small lake of Fairy Yaoyue Island.
A figure stood by the lake.
Beside him stood a round, gray large cauldron, and bursts of fire light surged from the large cauldron, permeating toward the ten-mile flat lake.
As if stimulated.
The pitch-black thick mist shrouding the ten-mile flat lake suddenly rolled.
Sounds of roaring and screaming resounded through the clouds.
The aura was so strong that even the dark clouds in the night were washed away, revealing a full moon.
The bright moonlight spilled down, wanting to cover the earth, but could not advance an inch under the black mist of fire light.
In the black mist, ghosts were heavy, frantically spitting ghost energy to disperse the incoming baleful aura.
Luo Chen watched this scene, his heart settled slightly.
Sure enough, Blazing Fire Miasma had a miraculous effect on the array formed by the Soul Refining Banner.
Fire baleful aura, although it is a filthy thing, also inherits the meaning of masculine and fierce, and is the nemesis of the Yin ghost lineage.
Next, he only needed to wait for the Blazing Fire Miasma to be fully released, filling this ten-mile flat lake, and he could let go and fight.
"However, even at this point, Yan Nantian still hasn't appeared?"
Luo Chen frowned, not knowing why the other party didn't show up.
But his hands didn't slow down at all.
Magic power surged, Blazing Fire Miasma fully released!
In the thick fire light, a touch of gray-white appeared.
That was the baleful aura of deathly silence left behind after the Withered-Prosperous Fire swallowed a large amount of vitality, its name is Withered-Prosperous True Baleful Aura!
The last time it appeared was the Battle of Mount Danxia Mountain, which destroyed the Seven-Colored Mount Danxia Array painstakingly arranged by Min Longyu.
This baleful aura is the most corrosive!
As Luo Chen took action, the sound of ghosts crying and wolves howling on Fairy Yaoyue Island reached its peak, spreading for hundreds of miles.
The large and small islands around could hear it clearly.
The mortals and Qi Refining cultivators on the islands were all terrified.
And the Foundation Establishment true cultivators of the islands, in suspicion, quietly approached Fairy Yaoyue Island.
And just when they reached the hundred-mile range, seven figures rushed into the sky from below, blocking them.
Everyone looked up in the moonlight, and a man in white stood smiling.
"Everyone, the distance for watching the battle ends here."
"It's the Cheng family head of Black Swan Island!"
An exclamation came from the crowd.
Then, there were questions directed at Cheng Dou.
"Cheng family head, what happened in front?"
"Did True Person Nantian go into qi deviation? Or is there a great enemy at the door?"
"Cheng Dou, what are you intending to do, are you going to rebel against True Person Nantian!"
Voices of questioning or reprimand came one after another.
Especially the latter!
Cheng Dou's face turned cold. "Yan Nantian acted perversely, occupying the Du Feiyan Archipelago for a hundred years, with countless crimes. Everyone, could it be that you still have your hearts set on this person?"
So righteous?
Everyone looked at each other.
Someone experienced and prudent asked quietly: "Daoist Cheng, to tell the truth, did you invite a powerhouse from the Demon Luo Flow?"
Cheng Dou raised an eyebrow. "It seems Daoist Xu also knows that the Demon Luo Flow is hunting down Yan Nantian!"
The cultivator with the surname Xu nodded. "If I didn't know before, that would be fine, but the Demon Luo Flow has become famous in recent years, uniting major forces to grab spirit islands and territories from the Li Canghai Righteous Alliance, and competing for the hegemony of the Demon Domain, how could we not know."
But what does this have to do with Yan Nantian, a mere Jin Dan cultivator?
Cheng Dou laughed lightly, sure enough, there were many people on the Du Feiyan Archipelago who were dissatisfied with Yan Nantian.
Like those who secretly investigated Yan Nantian's origin and knew about the existence of the other party's enemy, there were many.
Since that was the case, many things were easy to handle.
"That Senior Qingyang... Demon Lord, although not a powerhouse of the Demon Luo Flow, in terms of origin, perhaps he is from the same lineage as the founder of the Demon Luo Flow."
Demon Lord Senior Qingyang!
Hearing this strange name, everyone was stunned, their faces showing confusion.
Never heard of it!
But hearing that he might be from the same lineage as the founder of the Demon Luo Flow made them understand.
It is rumored that the founder of the Demon Luo Flow was a Nascent Soul elder left outside by the Yuanmo Sect.
When the Yuanmo Sect was destroyed, he survived by luck outside.
Later, after the demon race occupied the Arctic Night Demon Heaven, he gathered the cultivators of the Yuanmo Sect's industries outside and created the Demon Luo Flow.
If Demon Lord Senior Qingyang was from the same lineage as him, then he was also a remnant of the Yuanmo Sect.
The two had deep origins, and now taking action for a fellow sect member to clean up Yan Nantian was a matter of course.
After learning this news, even those Foundation Establishment true cultivators who had intended to help Yan Nantian couldn't help but have thoughts of retreating.
Just at this time, a blue light spot appeared in Cheng Dou's hand.
The light spot rose slowly, and as his fingers drew left and right, a huge water mirror appeared in the void.
He lifted his hands upward.
"This is the Water Mirror Technique left by that senior, which can help us observe the specific details of the battlefield."
"Everyone, let's admire the Demon Lord's means together!"
The area of the water mirror was still expanding, and in the blink of an eye, it formed a light curtain several zhang in radius. The picture in the light curtain was lifelike, as if it were right in front of them.
Such attainments caused a burst of exclamations.
In the North Sea cultivation world, cultivators of water-based cultivation methods account for the majority.
But there are very few who can perform the most basic Water Mirror Technique to this extent!
That senior must be a master of water techniques!
For a time, everyone was excited, staring wide-eyed, ready to watch this battle carefully.
After all, this is a battle at the Jin Dan realm, how can one watch it in such detail at ordinary times.
As long as one can comprehend some fur from it, whether it is cultivation or combat, one will benefit infinitely!
Cheng Dou was disdainful of their shock.
Or rather, he had already been shocked at the beginning, and what he was disdainful of at this moment was actually their shallow knowledge.
Demon Lord Senior Qingyang letting them watch this great battle at the Jin Dan realm for free was not free!
After witnessing the Demon Lord's means, his Cheng family could then use the Demon Lord's might to take the opportunity to integrate the large and small forces of the Du Feiyan Archipelago.
All gifts have long been marked with prices in the dark.
The Cheng family has paid everything, and then they can borrow the tiger's might to recover more!
Suddenly, the cultivator with the surname Xu let out an exclamation.
"That divine soul aura, isn't it Daoist Peng Yu?"
As soon as this was said, Cheng Dou's heart trembled, and he hurriedly turned his head to look at the water mirror.
I saw that in the mirror, dozens of figures leaped out from the black mist that was shattered by the endless fire light.
The leader was an old man with a crane-like face and child-like skin, even in the form of a ghost, he did not hide his demeanor before his death.
Instead, under the blessing of the endless black mist, he looked even more majestic.
Peng Yu, the Supreme Elder of the number one family on the Du Feiyan Archipelago a hundred years ago!
He had once sprinted for the Jin Dan stage, although he failed, he luckily condensed a fake core.
This person was very strong, proficient in water-based spells, and was known as the Boundless Sea.
However, a hundred years ago, when Yan Nantian entered the Du Feiyan Archipelago, he unfortunately fell.
No one expected that he would appear in this posture.
"This was refined into the Soul Refining Banner alive by Yan Nantian!"
"Extremely honorable in life, but not free in death, Daoist Peng is really a pity."
Listening to others' sighs, Cheng Dou's throat felt a bit dry.
Peng Yu was much stronger than him and could be considered his senior.
Before his death, he had reached the fake core realm.
Yet he ended up like this.
What if this Demon Lord Senior Qingyang also follows Yan Nantian's example...
For a time, he actually had a bit of regret in his heart.
Others didn't know about his deal with Luo Chen, and their eyes were fixed on the water mirror.
After the appearance of Peng Yu's resentful soul, the remaining dozens of figures appeared one after another.
And the cultivators present, after slightly identifying the familiar figures among them, let out bursts of exclamations.
The three great cultivators of the Peng family were all listed among them.
There were also nine ordinary Foundation Establishment true cultivators of the Peng family.
This was the entire Peng family, all refined into the Soul Banner!
Then in the ghost group, several people were identified one after another.
Those few people were all cultivators of several families that had been destroyed on the Du Feiyan Archipelago, and they had all had intersections with them before their deaths.
For a time, everyone felt the sadness of the rabbit dying and the fox grieving.
"True Person Nantian is too cruel, even if these people disobeyed him, but killing is just a matter of the head, why do it so ruthlessly."
"Yes, even the remnant souls and broken spirits are not let go, so that several Daoists cannot reincarnate and re-cultivate."
"The world is going downhill, and morality is lost! When the Yuanmo Sect was still there, even if demonic giants were rampant, at least they were restrained. Now that the Yuanmo Sect is gone, the demons are unconstrained, even if there is the Li Canghai Righteous Alliance going against the current to rebuild order, but these demon heads below finally have no scruples, directly taking human souls to refine banners."
"One, two... hiss, eight late-stage Foundation Establishment great cultivator souls!"
"This Yan Nantian is too ruthless, the others, I don't even recognize them."
As the Blazing Fire Miasma erupted in the picture, constantly sweeping the black mist, the true face of the Ten Thousand Soul Array was gradually revealed to everyone.
The more they looked, the more shocked they were.
Eight late-stage Foundation Establishment great cultivator souls, like great cultivators are not worth money, is enough to be terrifying.
And the remaining Foundation Establishment souls were also as many as forty-something.
The remaining Qi Refining souls were okay, most of them were sea demon souls. But the terrifying quantity, dense and dense, almost uncountable, at least the number of souls had already reached ten thousand!
The cultivator with the surname Xu took a deep breath. "With so many souls, I have only heard of the legendary Ten Thousand Soul Banner that can accommodate them. And, the number of Foundation Establishment cultivators is really too many, if a Jin Dan main soul is added. Then even among the many famous Ten Thousand Soul Banners, this banner is absolutely a boutique among them!"
"Daoist Xu is indeed knowledgeable, Yan Nantian's Ten Thousand Soul Banner really has a Jin Dan main soul!" Cheng Dou, although his mouth was bitter, still maintained a posture that everything was within expectations.
And after he said this, everyone present couldn't help but let out exclamations.
That Yan Nantian, what a murderous nature!
Actually refined a Ten Thousand Soul Banner with a Jin Dan main soul, and the quality was so high.
Just, in this way, does that so-called Demon Lord Senior Qingyang really have the confidence to take down the other party?
By the lake!
Under the bright moonlight, the young man's brows were almost wrinkled into a 'chuan' character.
Under his drive, the Blazing Fire Miasma drove straight in, sweeping across, and this so-called Ten Thousand Soul Array could almost not be blocked at all without anyone presiding over it.
Especially where the Withered-Prosperous True Baleful Aura passed, a large number of low-level sea demon souls were directly wiped out.
Even if it was a Foundation Establishment soul, it could not be blocked at all, and it collapsed with one sweep. Even if it could be reorganized, it was clear that the ferocity was far inferior to before.
Deep in the array, the roaring became more and more irritable.
I think that Jin Dan soul sitting in the center is finally about to be unable to hold back.
"Ghost King exists, with my current strength, I am not afraid at all."
"But why hasn't Yan Nantian appeared yet at this point?"
Luo Chen pinched a spiritual formula, and his eyes suddenly shot out spiritual light.
A pair of spirit eyes, as if they could peek into the Nine Nether, passed through the endless black mist and reached Fairy Yaoyue Island in the center of the lake.
Instantly!
A steaming aura rose into the sky, vaguely intending to shed its shackles.
Luo Chen's face changed slightly.
"How bold, actually breaking through in the face of battle, really treating this seat as a decoration?"
Before the words fell, he rose into the air, straight into the night sky.
The bright moon reflected his back, and the spiritual light blessed his eyes.
Lift his breath! Raise his hand!
A palm that turned the sky, pressed down with a bang!
On one side of the array, a black light soared into the sky, wanting to block this palm.
Luo Chen glared at it.
"Get out!"
Mirror Flower Water Moon suddenly activated, and the black light was suddenly confused, and after a pause, the majestic palm print had already pressed down like a blazing sun.
It was the Senior Qingyang Great Handprint!
If he doesn't take action, he won't take action; if he takes action, it is the strongest move without reservation.
With one palm falling, the ten-mile flat lake exploded.
The small island in the center of the lake, which had been soaked in spiritual energy for eight hundred years, was hard-pressed into the ground a thousand zhang deep.
A momentum like a surging wave rose from the depths of the ground.
Boundless killing intent, accompanied by heart-piercing roars, rushed straight at Luo Chen.
"Despicable villain, I want to kill you!"
Two blue giant dragons, circling a withered figure, swirled out from the sky-filling water droplets that exploded.
Seeing this scene.
Luo Chen smiled ferociously, reached out and beckoned, and the Xuanhuo Sword fell into his hand.
"Just in time!"
