Protagonist:
Xu Zhangqing
Xu Zhangqing mocked: "We're evenly matched!"
His left hand continued to peel away, while his right hand unleashed a streak of Five-Colored Divine Light.
This divine ability left nothing unbrushed and nothing unbroken within the Five Elements.
Moreover, the higher the realm, the greater the power it erupted with.
A demon like the Mirage Dragon, with several thousand years of Dao Xing, saw its Dragon Pearl's luster dim the moment they made contact, startling it.
Though, after leaving its physical body, its strength was less than half of its peak period.
But as long as the other party wasn't at the Nascent Soul Stage and hadn't activated a Dharma Aspect, it shouldn't be able to cause too much harm.
However, this Five-Colored Divine Light was completely unreasonable; once it made contact, it would inevitably weaken power and consciousness, even affecting the Divine Soul.
Xu Zhangqing raised an eyebrow upon seeing this: "Golden Core Stage Old Wu died in less than a breath after being brushed by the Five-Colored Divine Light, but the Mirage Dragon only had its Dragon Pearl dim."
From this, it could be seen that the other party's Dao Xing and strength were beyond imagination.
Fortunately, he didn't want to fight the other party to the death; he only wanted to buy time.
Once he absorbed enough Mirage Dragon Bloodline, he could activate the Third Transformation of Youlong Nine Transformations, then directly run back to the Immortal Sect.
After all, the one who attacked was Gonggong, who possessed a Water Spiritual Root.
What did that have to do with Xu Zhangqing, who possessed a Wood Spiritual Root?
One had to know that from the moment he left Xuanxin City, he had always worn a Phantom Mask, changing his appearance, voice, clothes, and temperament entirely—he was no longer the same person.
On this side, the Mirage Dragon flew into a rage and immediately released endless gray mirage qi, then transformed it into continuous, undulating mountain ranges.
With a single move of Earth Restricts Water, it looked terrifying beyond compare.
Normally speaking, this belonged to illusion attacks, merely looking frightening.
But this Mirage Dragon was different; it had stayed in the Canglan Sea Region for over a thousand years, constantly absorbing the Spiritual Energy emanating from the Sea Bottom Dragon Vein, and also absorbing the essence of various Xiuxian Zhe.
Therefore, it had long since achieved materialization.
In other words, this wasn't fake, but real.
The heavy mountain ranges brought an indescribable oppressive feeling even before they fell.
Even the sky was obscured, and this sea region instantly dimmed.
The seawater actively sank downward, as if unwilling to make contact with it.
Xu Zhangqing, seeing this, kicked the Thunder Dragon Water-Avoiding Boat—which was eating heartily—into the water, then jumped onto the deck together with the Ancestor.
However, he did not give up the idea of peeling away the Mirage Dragon Bloodline; instead, he dove into the water, switched from his back to his belly, and continued absorbing.
Just as the heavy mountain ranges were about to smash into his body, the Mirage Dragon merely had a thought and transformed back into weightless mirage qi, not even stirring the slightest ripple.
"Damn humans!"
"You... you..."
"Not good, a Spirit Transformation Stage cultivator is approaching!"
The Mirage Dragon hadn't expected the humans it encountered this time to be so cunning.
However, what truly made it panic was actually other cultivators.
Since the Yellow Spring Alliance's people slew the Dragon Vein, core disciples and formal disciples of immortal sects had been exploring everywhere here, and Nascent Soul old monsters were observing in the dark.
Unexpectedly, there was actually a Spirit Transformation Venerable hiding here.
Feeling the Divine Sense coming from Golden Core Stage, Nascent Soul Stage, and even Spirit Transformation Stage cultivators, the Mirage Dragon knew that continuing would be of no benefit to it.
Golden Core Stage was of course nothing, but Nascent Soul Stage was not acceptable; after all, it had just withdrawn part of its own power from its physical body.
Now, the choices before the Mirage Dragon were only two.
One, return to its physical body again.
Two, drive the Dragon Pearl and leave.
The former: although the Dragon Bloodline had lost a lot, after all there were several thousand years of accumulation, and the remaining power was still terrifyingly strong, but it was still trapped.
The latter: equivalent to giving up everything it currently possessed, keeping only the purest part, but the future was full of uncertainty.
Without considering for long, the Mirage Dragon made a decision.
It decisively abandoned its body of nearly a thousand zhang, transformed into a streak of gray flowing light, and flew toward the distance; starting over was nothing new anyway.
Before disappearing, it left harsh words: "Human, I remember you."
The Xu Zhangqing in the water grunted, not in response, but in surprise.
His Divine Sense had been scanning all along; he thought the other party would go mad and take revenge, but never expected it to run away.
This behavior quickly aroused his vigilance; if a demon of the Mirage Dragon's level chose to run away, there was only one possibility: an existence even more terrifying than it had appeared.
Facing this situation, Xu Zhangqing dared not be careless.
Although he was a Golden Core True Person, he was not invincible under heaven.
Above were Nascent Soul True Lords, and even Spirit Transformation Venerables; any one of them could crush him.
He decisively issued orders to the Ancestor, telling him to find the core part within the Mirage Dragon's physical body as quickly as possible.
Just like that, Xu Zhangqing worked hard to devour the Dragon Bloodline, the Thunder Dragon Water-Avoiding Boat worked hard to devour the Dragon's body, and the Ancestor worked hard to find the core part.
Three-pronged approach, efficiency doubled.
Not long after, Xu Zhangqing's heart stirred, and he looked at the Attribute Panel.
Youlong Nine Transformations: Mirage Dragon Transformation
Effect 1: Thousand Faces Illusory Form
Effect 2: Shadow Follows
Effect 3: Breath Concealment
Effect 4: Void Realm Shuttling
Special Effect 1: Thousand Realms Mirage Tower
Special Effect 2: Heart Demon Phantom
Special Effect 3: True-False Illusory Realm
Negative Effect 1: Divine Sense Exhaustion
Negative Effect 2: Strong Light Restraint
Xu Zhangqing's eyes brightened: "Got it."
Afterward, he looked at the Thunder Dragon Water-Avoiding Boat underfoot and found this thing was stuffed full and could no longer continue.
At this moment the ship's body was undergoing changes, but because it had not entered a resting state, the changes were not particularly obvious.
Not long after, the Ancestor who had been searching for the Core Part also returned, carrying many things in his hands, looking especially abundant.
A pair of Dragon Eyes.
An entire Throat.
A large pile of Reverse Scales.
And various internal organs and such.
These were the most valuable Core Parts at present, after all the Dragon Pearl containing power had just run away.
Xu Zhangqing thought it over and sent more into his Personal Space.
He thought it would soon be filled, but unexpectedly the space expanded and could hold more things.
He stuffed in a full hundred zhang before stopping.
As for the remaining parts, he did not plan to take them all away.
Once he did so, it would surely arouse public anger and might even bring the pursuit of Nascent Soul True Lords.
It would be better to use the remaining Dragon carcass to attract approaching Xiuxian Zhe and thus divert attention.
Afterward, Xu Zhangqing activated Mirage Dragon Transformation, first using Shadow Follows to create a large number of Avatars, then using Breath Concealment to lower his own Qi and the fluctuations of his Spiritual Realm.
The next second, the false Avatars scattered in all directions.
The Main Body then drove the Thunder Dragon Water-Avoiding Boat and quickly departed.
Not long after, figures floated above the Mirage Dragon's carcass, each with expressions either curious or surprised.
"How strange, it was still alive just now, how did it die in the blink of an eye?"
"This seems to be the legendary Mirage Dragon?"
"Damn it, the Core Parts have all been dug away!"
Among these people, besides Golden Core Stage Core Disciples, there were Nascent Soul True Lords.
A Jiao Dragon cannot be summoned, but a Mirage Dragon can.
Yet they were all extremely disappointed, even angry.
Originally thought they would obtain a great benefit, but the result was others' "Leftovers."
……
……
On the Left Side, Xu Zhangqing completely left the Canglan Sea Region.
Afterward he threw the Thunder Dragon Water-Avoiding Boat and the Ancestor into his Personal Space, then quickly changed into Dongting Immortal Sect Disciple's clothes, and only then drove Broken Moon Flowing Frost, returning to Dongting Immortal Sect!
