Chapter 610: Sitting by the Abyss, Luo Chen is Bewildered
The battle is on the verge of breaking out!
The demonic beasts here, living in the outer sea, have almost no chance to communicate with the human race.
Even if they have reached the third grade and refined the horizontal bone in their mouths, they do not understand human language.
Recklessly roaring, they don't know what they are saying.
Luo Chen and the others don't want to talk nonsense with them.
This battle requires speed!
Solve it quickly, and try not to let the aftermath of the battle spread, so as not to affect the island's topography and the growth environment of the Purple Monkey Flowers later.
Therefore, when this beast tide of a thousand numbers rolled over, Luo Chen's four people and one dragon did not hesitate to strike hard.
Duan Li drove the jade ruler, phantomizing thousands of shadows, encircling large groups of demonic beasts. Every time the jade ruler fell, a large cloud of blood mist exploded.
Sang Sang Jiugong patted the earth, and suddenly hundreds of black vines broke through the ground, directly tying up three Purple Toxic Monkeys. Looking at this method, it was somewhat similar to Luo Chen's use of the Vine Technique to drive the Thorny Poison Vine in the Foundation Establishment period, but the power was much greater. Three early third-grade Demon Kings roared crazily under the entanglement of the black vines but could not break free, and their physical bodies began to be tightened slowly, almost falling apart. Not only that, Sang Sang Jiugong also took out a stone tablet and pressed it on the ground, making the earth a piece of mud. Countless low-level demonic beasts were trapped in it and could not extricate themselves.
When they saw it again, only the blood rain falling all over the sky remained.
In the sky, sharp bird calls sounded.
Duan Li's mana intensified, Lushan Jun swept with the whisk in his hand, and wherever the flying silk passed, the demonic beasts were torn apart. Sang Sang Jiugong slapped the stone tablet in front of him, and the stone tablet expanded instantly, then pushed over with an unstoppable momentum.
The Golden-Crowned Flying Eagle suffered a huge force, and felt that the demon power in its body was not running smoothly. When it fell, it made a panicked bird call.
From the time everyone heard the eagle call to Luo Chen's move, it was only a few breaths.
The Golden-Crowned Flying Eagle saw this, not afraid at all, stretched out its giant claws to pull the chain.
This series of actions, between the rabbit falling and the falcon falling, ended extremely quickly.
After a word fell, everyone accelerated their actions.
Every time they attacked, the Demon King would definitely be killed or injured.
In the golden eyes, he suddenly saw a person jump over its head, and then smashed down with a hammer.
At this moment, it had already shown signs of defeat.
It is conceivable that once the demonic beasts scatter, it might be easier to solve, but it is also easier to affect other places.
Under his rapid movement, in a short while, three or four Purple Toxic Monkeys fell under the Flowing Fire Hammer.
Lushan Jun's eyes blinked, and his heart was also shocked.
Lushan Jun's side, relatively speaking, was much more free and easy. Controlling a blue flying sword, coming and going horizontally. Holding a whisk in his left hand, he didn't see any movement, but the white silk floated, and the meaning of killing was about to be sent. Sang Sang Jiugong slapped the stone tablet in front of him, and the stone tablet expanded instantly, then pushed over with an unstoppable momentum.
Among these people, the most domineering is undoubtedly Luo Chen, who is open and close.
In the sky, Luo Chen solved the Golden-Crowned Flying Eagle, his vision fell on the earth, and he saw the whole picture of the battlefield.
"Screech!"
"Get down!"
"Didn't he just fight a great cultivator of the eighth level of Jin Dan for a night at Seven Star Island not long ago, why is his mana still so vigorous?"
Luo Chen didn't idle either, put away the Flowing Fire Hammer, stood in the sky, and flicked his ten fingers frequently.
Luo Chen looked up coldly, this is the only avian demonic beast among the many third-grade Demon Kings mentioned in Duan Li's previous investigation.
Luo Chen snorted coldly, and nine chains suddenly appeared on his body, flying towards the sky.
Especially every time the void exploded, he would move dozens of feet in the air, fall on the head of a third-grade Demon King, and then smash down with a hammer.
"Humph!"
The other three still had spare energy when fighting, so they saw how fast and violent Luo Chen was to solve a tricky third-grade avian, and each felt awe in their hearts.
Sang Sang Jiugong: "Is this Demon Lord Senior Qingyang's means? I haven't seen him use that legendary giant tripod magic treasure yet, and he is already this powerful."
However, the nine mana chains rolled up, entangling half of its body.
His brows couldn't help but wrinkle.
Looking at its appearance, it should be the Golden-Crowned Flying Eagle known for its infinite strength.
Luo Chen gave a low shout, the surging giant force flew suddenly, and he himself borrowed the force to fly into the sky.
"Fellow Daoists, don't hold back, solve the demonic beasts here as soon as possible, don't let them escape back to their lair!"
Duan Li: "Daoist Brother Luo Hai's combat method is becoming more refined, with a bit of returning to simplicity."
Under the strangulation of the four people and one demon, this group of demonic beasts entrenched on Purple Spirit Island had no resistance.
The Black King was even simpler, his body size skyrocketed, killing into the demonic beast group, dragon tail swinging, sweeping a large area.
He didn't see him use the Moon-Breaking Wings, but his speed was still extremely fast.
Boom!
In the sky, flesh and blood flew, and the clouds were full of feathers.
As for the saber light in the field, it was the Black King's means of controlling the two middle-grade magic treasures, Yin Lu and Yang Fu Jue. However, it is clear that his method of controlling magic treasures is quite rough. The two middle-grade magic treasures in his hands are not as powerful as Duan Li and others. Later, the Black King was quite impatient, opened his bloody mouth, and began to swallow low-level demonic beasts with his innate talent.
The Black King saw this and couldn't help but drool, Master, what a waste!
The instinct of the demonic beasts made them flee in all directions.
With a thought, Luo Chen shouted loudly.
One by one, fireballs fell like meteors, as if it were raining fire.
As long as they were not third-grade, after his fireballs fell, they turned into huge fireballs, and were burned to ashes in screams and wails.
And those few third-grade Demon Kings, Luo Chen didn't let them go either.
Senior Qingyang Great Handprints appeared frequently, and they turned into meat mud upon touch.
There were exceptions!
Luo Chen's gaze paused, falling on a giant crocodile fleeing in a panic.
"Is this the third-grade Abyss Crocodile? The defensive power is indeed outstanding, and it can hard-receive my Senior Qingyang Great Handprint."
With a thought, Luo Chen dived down, straight towards the giant crocodile that was comparable to a small mountain.
Sensing the enemy chasing, the Abyss Crocodile didn't want to sit still, its ferocious tail swung out, and the rocks in front were smashed like dry mud.
The crocodile tail swept horizontally, straight towards Luo Chen.
"Humph!"
Luo Chen snorted lightly, his palms suddenly expanded and grew larger, and at the last moment, he forcibly grasped the crocodile tail.
His feet were inserted into the earth, immovable like a mountain.
A low roar.
"Rise!"
Both hands exerted force, and in the terrified eyes of the giant crocodile, he forcibly lifted the giant crocodile into the sky, and then smashed it down fiercely.
Boom!
The earth shook, and the wilderness vibrated.
In the distance, Sang Sang Jiugong let out a cry, "Senior Qingyangzi, pay attention!"
This is afraid that he will use brute force to destroy this Purple Spirit Island, which is not too big.
A fierce look flashed in Luo Chen's eyes, his figure rushed to the top of the giant crocodile, and his giant palm slapped down.
Mountain-Opening and Monument-Breaking Palm!
Domineering mana surged out.
The giant crocodile suffered a heavy blow and rolled endlessly on the ground.
But the strong defensive power still protected its life under this palm.
This is not a crocodile, it is clearly a turtle!
Luo Chen's eyes trembled, Mirror Flower Water Moon was activated, and the giant crocodile lay stiffly on the ground.
Taking this opportunity, Luo Chen slapped his palms repeatedly, from the top of the giant crocodile to the tail, a distance of dozens of feet, with an interval of every three feet.
One palm! Two palms! Three palms... after nine palms.
Luo Chen's hands turned into claws, grabbed the giant crocodile's solid scales, and shouted sharply.
"Overlord Unloading Armor!"
Sss!!!
The sound of bone and flesh separation was endless.
The scene of blood and flesh was shocking.
Everyone looked at the sound, only to see on the earth, a meat crocodile with no scales and only fresh red flesh tossing crazily.
Rocks and mud fell on the blurred flesh, becoming more ferocious and disgusting.
And the red-robed Daoist just dragged an empty shell and stood there.
Seeing the meat crocodile tossing, it was about to affect a place where Purple Monkey Flowers were growing vigorously, he slapped it to death.
After ending all this, Luo Chen panted slightly, his expression somewhat comfortable.
Lushan Jun was the first to solve the demonic beasts on his side, looking over at this moment, seeing Luo Chen's comfortable state, couldn't help but frown.
Senior Qingyangzi, a bit perverted!
Only Luo Chen himself knew why he was so violent just now.
The battle of Withered Wood Ridge, the might of Nascent Soul, made him feel powerless.
The battle of Seven Star Island, being ambushed, tied hands and feet, beaten everywhere.
This made him, who had been smooth sailing since coming to the North Sea, feel extremely aggrieved.
Therefore, he vented his anger in this battle.
Using the extreme speed of the Explosive Air Step, using pure giant force, crushing these demonic beasts bewitched by the Purple Monkey Flower, venting the anger in his heart.
Until this moment, after alive peeling the Abyss Crocodile's scales, he finally vented it out.
Seeing Lushan Jun's displeasure, he threw down the Abyss Crocodile shell.
"Sorry, I was a bit out of control just now."
Lushan Jun smiled reluctantly and nodded without speaking.
It was out of control, but it also showed the domineering and strong means of the other party.
If these means were used on her, she was afraid she couldn't resist a few rounds.
"Such a strong person, can only be befriended, not be an enemy!"
Luo Chen didn't care about her thoughts at the moment, and slapped a cleaning spell to wash away the blood on his body.
Looking around.
The battlefield situation had already been established.
Duan Li and the Black King were chasing some small groups of demonic beasts that had fled.
Sang Sang Jiugong was collecting the broken demonic beast corpses, gathering them into a pile, which was related to the ripening technique he would perform later.
This battle, overall, can be said to have been taken down very easily.
It did not exceed Luo Chen's expectations, after all, all the steps had already been calculated in his heart.
And next, it will be even simpler.
……
Three days later.
Duan Li and Lushan Jun said goodbye to Luo Chen and left together.
On Purple Spirit Island, only Luo Chen and Sang Sang Jiugong were left.
The Black King wandered in the nearby sea area, hunting low-level demonic beasts in the sea on a large scale, and brought the corpses back to Purple Spirit Island.
In the valley that looked like a sinkhole on the island, Luo Chen and Sang Sang Jiugong squatted on the ground, carefully picking three Purple Monkey Flowers that looked like monkey brains.
"Plus the one on the cliff, these four fourth-grade Purple Monkey Flowers are now in my hands."
Luo Chen carefully preserved them with a jade box.
Then, he watched Sang Sang Jiugong bury the broken demonic beast corpses into the sinkhole, including the body of the third-grade Abyss Crocodile.
The valuable parts of these demonic beasts had already been taken by Luo Chen.
Either demon pills, or scales, or wings.
But only blood, muscle, and bones, he did not move a bit.
In his sight, after Sang Sang Jiugong buried a large number of demonic beast corpses, filled them with large handfuls of soft mud, and then in front of Luo Chen, took out a jade bottle and poured about a bowl of green liquid onto the mud.
After doing all this, Sang Sang Jiugong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"The grade of the spiritual veins on Purple Spirit Island is average, and it was sucked without restraint by the four fourth-grade Purple Monkey Flowers, so there was no possibility of advancement long ago, and now it is considered waste utilization."
"Take a vast amount of living flesh and blood, plus the Golden Mulberry Green Liquid I uniquely prepared, this place can become the most fertile growth environment for Purple Monkey Flowers within ten years."
Luo Chen heard him finish, showing confusion.
"Ten years, is it enough?"
Sang Sang Jiugong smiled slightly, "That is naturally not enough. Wanting to ripen these third-grade Purple Monkey Flowers and save them a thousand years of natural growth, how can it be so easy. Don't worry, I have other auxiliary means to increase the soil fertility to the maximum, enough to last for decades!"
Luo Chen's eyes lit up, "Oh, then I will wait and see!"
Sang Sang Jiugong did not lie.
In the following days, he indeed performed many high-level spiritual plant master means that Luo Chen had only heard of in rumors.
Take a vast amount of seawater, melt a million spirit stones of Luo Chen, and then use the array to set up a circulating Great Cloud and Rain Technique, every three months, a spiritual rain.
The monstrous fire burned Purple Spirit Island, countless ancient woods turned into ashes, and were piled in the sinkhole. This is the Bing Fire Burning Wasteland Technique, which is the best for increasing soil fertility.
Even the Black King was used as coolie, going to the deep sea to collect many shells for Sang Sang Jiugong, and then crushing them into powder with demon power, evenly sprinkling them in the sinkhole.
Various means, all kinds of things, made Luo Chen a bit overwhelmed.
It also made him deeply know that any skill, to reach a high level, is not necessarily simpler than alchemy and casting.
When this "growth base" for Purple Monkey Flowers in the sinkhole was cultivated, almost half a year had passed.
At this time, Sang Sang Jiugong began the formal transplantation of Purple Monkey Flowers.
He wanted to transplant all the Purple Monkey Flowers on the entire Purple Spirit Island here.
Using the power of the entire group to raise those hundred third-grade Purple Monkey Flowers, allowing them to cross the thousand years of natural growth time and advance to the fourth-grade level in advance.
Except for the beginning, when Luo Chen used his original true fire to perform the Bing Fire Burning Wasteland Technique to assist Sang Sang Jiugong, he did not intervene in anything else.
The Black King became a coolie, being called and scolded by Sang Sang Jiugong.
For a time, Luo Chen was idle instead.
It is not that he was completely idle. He wandered on Purple Spirit Island, checking the terrain, setting up suitable island-protecting arrays, to prevent powerful demonic beasts from breaking in and destroying the growth of spiritual medicine here when he is not here in the future.
In this process, Luo Chen began to reflect on the shortcomings of his current combat means.
Although he is good at spells, those low-level spells are still quite powerful in his hands.
But with the increase of cultivation, low-level spells finally have limitations, and for cultivators of the same level, and even enemies with higher cultivation, the threat is greatly reduced.
The Mountain Collapse and Blazing Sun Technique, which were used as killing moves in the past, even if constantly optimized, no longer have the decisive effect of a one-hit kill.
His signature means, the Senior Qingyang Great Handprint, is still usable, but the advantage of a large range becomes a flaw of not enough concentrated power in front of high-level enemies.
Unless it is something of the same giant size, otherwise, encountering flexible human cultivators, or powerful defensive magic treasures, the Senior Qingyang Great Handprint has little effect.
In front of a cold pool with cold air, there are traces of giant things crawling, which should be the habitat of the Abyss Crocodile before it died.
Rather than a pool, it is better to say it is an abyss.
Luo Chen inserted an array flag, then looked at the deep abyss that could not see the bottom, and fell into deep thought.
"Third-grade spells, for me, have actually become chicken ribs."
It is not that third-grade spells are not strong. Under his diligent practice and system deduction, the Great Perfection third-grade spells can still explode with powerful power.
This level of power is quite effective against early Jin Dan, and even middle Jin Dan.
But it is clear that Luo Chen has long been not afraid of that kind of enemy.
His current hypothetical enemies are all great cultivators of the late Jin Dan stage, and even possible Nascent Soul True Persons!
In his calculation, fourth-grade spells may become a new trump card.
But fourth-grade spells are rarely circulated in the market, and only Nascent Soul True Persons can master them.
He currently masters two fourth-grade spells, namely the Dragon-Slaying Technique and the Yuan Dan Technique.
But neither of these belongs to offensive spells, even if the Dragon-Slaying Technique has evolved the effect of severing the soul, it is still limited to Luo Chen's sea of consciousness and cannot be released.
The Yuan Dan Technique is extraordinary. The Yuan Dan Luo Chen refined provided him with a "second hidden energy source".
He was able to stalemate with the Master of Mount Liang Baizao for a whole night at Seven Star Island, and then kill in Purple Spirit Island, which was the great effect of the Yuan Dan after his Jin Dan.
His current mana vigor is completely no less than that of the late Jin Dan stage!
The Master of Mount Liang Baizao should not have been defeated so miserably in the competition of mana foundation, but the other party had to control the Big Dipper Seven Peaks Array while simultaneously controlling seven middle-grade magic treasure flying swords to set up a sword array, how could it last long?
Conversely, after Luo Chen cast many means, the Mysterious Dust Armor could absorb earth-attribute free spiritual energy and earth vein energy.
So, he was able to calmly defeat the other party in the end, and still have spare energy.
"But these are foundations after all, and cannot directly present powerful lethality!"
Luo Chen found in distress that he had fallen into a bottleneck in the spell path he was most proficient in.
Even with his deep accumulation, he could create spells, but obviously, the grade and power of the created spells would definitely not reach the fourth-grade level.
Not only spells, but also magic treasures!
He has many magic treasures in his hands, whether it is the Hunyuan Tripod, or the Moon-Breaking Wings, or even the Falling Treasure Copper Coin, Flowing Fire Hammer, all are of the boutique level.
There are even more miraculous and extraordinary strange magic treasures like the Rotten Ke Black Chess and the Dragon-Raising Basin.
But in the final analysis, these magic treasures are more inclined to auxiliary and defensive nature.
The Flowing Fire Hammer has good attack power, but the speed is too slow. Throwing it out to smash people is not as fast as flying over and smashing a hammer in his hand.
The Hunyuan Tripod, as his natal magic treasure, has extraordinary potential and has miraculous effects in many aspects.
Only in the attack path, there is a slight lack.
Luo Chen had long expected this situation. Comprehensive development means comprehensive mediocrity. The Hunyuan Tripod has a deep foundation and will definitely not be mediocre, but at least in the short term, it cannot become a sharp weapon for attack in his hands.
In fact, this predicament also appears in most Jin Dan cultivators at the same time.
Natal magic treasures, as things cultivated with life, Jin Dan cultivators value their foundation and comprehensiveness more, and there will be a lack in attack.
Therefore, many Jin Dan cultivators, after their cultivation improves and their mana is surplus, will try their best to master a second offensive magic treasure.
For example, the Old Fisherman, Luo Chen doesn't know what his natal magic treasure is, but clearly the combination magic treasure of the Mysterious Gold Rod, Sound-Absorbing Bell, and Heavenly Residual Thread is a combination magic treasure he specially refined to make up for the gap in the attack path.
Or for example, the Master of Mount Liang Baizao encountered not long ago, whose natal magic treasure is the extremely heavy Mount Liang Baizao, but the Seven-Kill Sword, which is fierce and sharp, is used in the attack path.
Luo Chen walked this path before, with the Hunyuan Tripod as the natal magic treasure, highlighting comprehensiveness, and refining the Mysterious Dust Armor to defend the whole body.
Before there was the Mysterious Fire Sword, later there was the Flowing Fire Hammer, as attack tools.
In the past, he felt it was enough, and it was indeed enough. After all, he had many means and almost no shortcomings, and there was always a way to restrain the enemy.
However, after facing enemies in the late Jin Dan stage, he found that there was quite a gap.
"I lack a purely offensive magic treasure!"
By the cold pool, Luo Chen sat cross-legged, finding a problem he had ignored before.
Finally, he looked at his sturdy body through the reflection in the water.
"This physical body of mine is obviously extremely powerful, far exceeding third-grade demonic beasts, enough to be comparable to real desolate beasts!"
"However, my use of it is too rough, and it seems I haven't exerted its true potential at all."
In the Seven Star Island battle, Luo Chen was suppressed from beginning to end, and only had one chance to counterattack.
This situation occurred, the suppression of the Master of Mount Liang Baizao's Big Dipper Seven Peaks Array is one aspect, and his development and utilization of his own body is another aspect.
He believes that if Wang Yuan, who possessed such a physical body, encountered that situation, even without many spells and powerful magic treasures, he would not be so passively beaten.
In his mind, Wang Yuan's evaluation of the "Heavenly Peng Transformation" technique back then appeared: "The transformation of a demon, how can it compare to my human true body."
"Is the Heavenly Peng true body not suitable for frontal combat?"
In the situation where space is suppressed and speed is limited, the Heavenly Peng true body seems to be just a living target.
What if it were changed to Wang Yuan's Giant Spirit Transformation?
One problem after another was found by Luo Chen one by one, like a basin of cold water splashed on his body.
Luo Chen, who had been constantly progressing, constantly praised, and complimented by his peers, had long been complacent and intoxicated by success, suddenly woke up for a moment in front of the cold pool abyss.
Looking at it now, he actually found that while he was becoming stronger, his shortcomings and flaws were also becoming more and more.
"This shouldn't be..."
The Daoist sat by the abyss, talking to himself, his eyes filled with bewilderment.
