Chapter 83: Blood Gu! Seven-Colored Gu!

~7 min read 1,361 words

On the edge of Kunlun Mountain, in a certain valley.

A figure was seen flickering rapidly, appearing in a spot within the valley, before finding a place to stop.

Only when she revealed herself did it become clear that this figure was Jiang Luoli.

In front of her line of sight, a massive seven-colored peacock with a wingspan of over ten meters was floundering on the ground; it was particularly nervous about her arrival, wishing it could flee this valley immediately.

But clearly, the peacock was severely injured and its movements were extremely restricted.

It struggled dozens of times, unable to take flight again or even walk, so it stared fixedly at Jiang Luoli with those beautiful eyes, its gaze filled with both fear and hatred.

"Peacock, you do not belong to this era."

Jiang Luoli's gaze was calm as she stared at the Seven-Colored Gu and said, "Let your body do something for me; this can also reflect your final value."

As she spoke these words, Jiang Luoli felt the aura throughout the seven-colored peacock's body become increasingly chaotic, and the hostility in its eyes grew even more intense, but she did not care in the slightest.

"Screech!"

Jiang Luoli pondered for a few seconds before lifting her feet and walking toward the seven-colored peacock, which made the latter even more nervous; it now opened its beak and spat out a ball of fire, wanting to force her back.

Yet her movements were extremely agile, and in the blink of an eye, she easily dodged this ball of fire.

Jiang Luoli's expression gradually turned icy, and her voice was even more indifferent, "Originally, I only intended to take your wings."

"But if you resist again, then... I will not show mercy!"

"Weigh it in your heart: is your life more important, or are your wings?"

"Taking my wings—what difference is that from killing me?"

For a moment, the seven-colored peacock spoke in human language, its words filled with unwillingness.

Currently, it was a body of severe injuries; not only were the large wounds blasted open by energy arrows still bleeding constantly, but the aura within its body was also in complete disarray, making it impossible to exert much power, yet it still struggled to fight back.

Jiang Luoli was long accustomed to Beasts speaking in human language; furthermore, she possessed memories from her previous life and knew that Beasts would all be like this once they reached a certain level.

Therefore, when faced with the seven-colored peacock's dual resistance of words and actions, she simply gathered energy in her palm, and once this energy condensed to its peak, she suddenly raised her hand and struck out a beam of blood-colored light with extreme speed.

Puchi—

This beam of blood-colored light did not seem to be an offensive method, as it did not erupt with waves of massive energy.

As soon as the blood-colored light was struck out, it instantly burrowed into the seven-colored peacock's wound, causing the creature to shriek incessantly.

In fact, this beam of blood-colored light was the Blood Gu that Jiang Luoli had been engaged in Cultivation for.

Once the Blood Gu entered the body, it would continuously consume blood without immediately killing the target.

"Screech!"

In the valley, the seven-colored peacock let out a series of miserable shrieks, its massive body struggling constantly, causing blood and soil to mix together and scatter in all directions.

Before long, its entire body was in a wretched state, and its strength grew weaker and weaker.

Jiang Luoli just watched coldly from the side until the seven-colored peacock's eyes widened and it died in agony; only then did she walk over to the carcass of the seven-colored peacock.

Crack—

With a crisp sound, she very deftly removed the seven-colored peacock's wings and placed them by her side.

At this moment, Jiang Luoli sat cross-legged on the spot as if no one else were around and took various medicinal herbs from her waist.

She kneaded all these herbs together and mixed them with her own blood.

It appeared she was refining a new Gu. As she worked, Jiang Luoli thought to herself, "With the seven-colored peacock's wings, I can refine the Seven-Colored Gu!"

Her gaze became brilliant because of this, and her hand movements grew faster, "Once the Seven-Colored Gu is successfully refined, it can project a peacock phantom, and this phantom can be used for tracking."

"With it, whether it is treasure hunting, tracking prey, or guarding against the Snake King, it will be able to exert impressive effects in the future!"

As her actions unfolded step by step, the seven-colored peacock's massive flesh actually withered at a speed visible to the naked eye; clearly... the flesh and blood of the seven-colored peacock had already been devoured by the Blood Gu Jiang Luoli had refined.

"Roar!"

Just as Jiang Luoli was wholeheartedly refining the Seven-Colored Gu, a powerful, angry roar erupted not far away! Immediately following, a massive sense of tremor came from the ground, and the massive body of the Bull Demon appeared in the valley, its target clear as it headed straight for Jiang Luoli.

"Damn it!"

Jiang Luoli remained in place, still refining the Seven-Colored Gu, but she could sense the Bull Demon's arrival, so a look of panic quickly surfaced in her eyes, "Why is this guy here?"

Right now was the critical period for her to refine the Seven-Colored Gu; if she stopped to deal with the Bull Demon, she would certainly fail, and she would also waste the pair of seven-colored peacock wings she had obtained.

As time passed, the Bull Demon's charging figure drew closer and closer, and the tremors it brought became increasingly intense, yet Jiang Luoli remained sitting on the ground, motionless.

Clearly, she did not want to give up on the refining of the Seven-Colored Gu at this moment.

After all, in her heart, the Kunlun Bull Demon, known as the King of Ten Thousand Demons, was far less of a threat than the Snake King!

"Fortunately, it is not the Snake King who has come at this time!"

In such an urgent state, Jiang Luoli did not forget to look at her palm, which was empty, "If... the Blood Pact were to light up at this moment, I would absolutely have to flee this place immediately!"

"Roar!"

Just as she was thinking wildly, the Bull Demon, following Lu Chuan's orders, launched its final charge directly at Jiang Luoli and soon leaped above its target.

At this moment, Jiang Luoli only felt the light above her head dim, and an extremely dangerous aura descended instantly.

She knew this was the Bull Demon's iron hoof about to land, but she was not flustered.

The Bull Demon looked at this petite figure and gave a disdainful smile, "This tiny human will soon be trampled into meat paste by me in an instant."

"Bang!"

The next instant, a glimmer of golden light suddenly emerged outside Jiang Luoli's body; that golden light looked incredibly tough, quickly wrapping around Jiang Luoli and shielding her from the surrounding danger.

The Bull Demon stepped down and clearly felt that it had hit a hard object; a look of surprise could not help but surface in its eyes.

It lowered its head slightly and saw a Golden Light Shield appearing around Jiang Luoli, so it immediately exerted force and stomped down, "It's useless even if you have this turtle shell!"

"This King will still trample you to death!"

In the valley, a continuous series of muffled thuds rang out.

A massive black bull was seen stomping frantically against a golden light, creating a commotion that shook the earth and mountains.

And within that golden light, a petite human woman remained sitting cross-legged, not even glancing at the threat from above.

"Almost there!"

At this very moment, Jiang Luoli was highly focused, even forgetting what kind of situation she was in.

Finally, at the instant the Golden Light Shield shattered, a brilliant seven-colored light erupted before her, and then a seven-colored peacock that seemed to have come to life flew out fiercely from beneath Niu's feet!
