Chapter 1088: Queen Mother Mirror (Second update, requesting everything)
Rumor has it that this precious mirror is named the Queen Mother Mirror, its grade unknown, possessing the ability to monitor the world; looking at it now, it does indeed match the rumors, after all, the Northern Region is over one hundred thousand li away from the Dai Kingdom.
Suddenly, a massive eye appeared on this precious mirror.
It must be said, this was a very beautiful eye, yet it was filled with majesty; merely being stared at by this eye, Li Zhangsheng had a feeling of facing a great terror, filled with a sense of oppression.
The Profound Emperor!
Li Zhangsheng had never seen the Profound Emperor, but the King of Hundred Victories had; furthermore, for merely an eye to contain such great might, who else could it be but the Profound Emperor.
However, at this very moment, Li Zhangsheng waved his hand, and the Sun Moon Shuttle Heavy Light Wheel spun rapidly, releasing gold and silver light flames as it slashed toward the precious mirror.
Li Zhangsheng knew very well in his heart that this precious mirror was by no means the original, at most it was a projection, and in all likelihood, it belonged to an illusion.
Ssh—
The Sun Moon Shuttle Heavy Light Wheel swept past, and the precious mirror shattered with a boom, disappearing from sight.
Yet in the very next moment, the precious mirror condensed and took shape once again, causing Li Zhangsheng to knit his brows.
Li Zhangsheng's thoughts shifted, and the Sun Moon Shuttle Heavy Light Wheel turned in mid-air, shattering the precious mirror once again.
From beginning to end, Li Zhangsheng did not use the Biluohuangquan Twin Swords; after all, these were the treasures of the King of Hundred Victories, and once used, the Profound Emperor might no longer have any scruples and would likely come to kill him directly.
The current strategy was naturally to hide his strength.
This time, the precious mirror did not condense again after shattering; Li Zhangsheng suspected it wasn't that the mirror couldn't condense again, but rather that the Profound Emperor felt there was no need.
With such a great distance between them, even if the Profound Emperor could strike, it would be difficult to pose a threat to Li Zhangsheng.
After confirming the precious mirror would no longer condense, Li Zhangsheng immediately turned back and dived into the Wangjiang; now that the Profound Emperor's envoy was dead, Dou Cangqiong's Demon Saint-level flood dragon naturally could not be left alive.
Soon, Li Zhangsheng opened the seal and retrieved the Small Altar; the Demon Saint-level flood dragon wanted to flee, but was forcibly suppressed by the Zining Cauldron, lying flat on the silt-covered riverbed.
The Demon Saint-level flood dragon struggled with all its might, but could not break free in the short term.
At the same time, the Demon Saint-level flood dragon also wanted to establish a mental connection with its master, Dou Cangqiong, but unfortunately, the distance was too great, and Dou Cangqiong was not a Ninth-Rank Demon Tamer, so how could he sense it.
Just then, Li Zhangsheng held the nearly twenty-meter-long Black Gold Dragon Spear and thrust it toward the reverse scale of the Demon Saint-level flood dragon.
The Black Gold Dragon Spear had been further modified, its hardness and piercing power far exceeding what they were before.
To avoid the Profound Emperor still monitoring, Li Zhangsheng did not use any treasures or divine abilities related to the King of Hundred Victories; besides, killing a Demon Saint-level flood dragon that could not resist was simply too easy.
"No, you cannot do this!"
The Demon Saint-level flood dragon struggled desperately, yet still could not move, watching helplessly as the Black Gold Dragon Spear forcefully pierced its reverse scale, thrusting deep into its neck, and finally piercing out the other side.
This was only because Li Zhangsheng had great strength; an ordinary king truly could not achieve this level.
The Demon Saint-level flood dragon widened its massive dragon eyes, blood vomiting from the corners of its mouth, its enormous flood dragon body trembling violently, yet it did not die immediately.
Li Zhangsheng did not waste anything, using the Imitation Demon Refining Pot to devour the blood-stained water, not wasting a single bit.
Soon, the Demon Saint-level flood dragon stopped moving, devoid of any signs of life.
The Demon Saint-level flood dragon, dead!
In the distant Northern Region, the Dark Night King Dou Cangqiong had spent most of his time in seclusion healing his wounds ever since defecting to the Profound Emperor.
Due to the loss of several main demon pets, including the Demon Emperor-level Burning Mountain Ape, and the great damage to the origin of his Blessed Land, Dou Cangqiong had suffered heavy injuries.
In the quiet room, even after more than two months, Dou Cangqiong had not fully recovered, but his originally pale complexion had become a bit more ruddy.
According to Dou Cangqiong's estimation, as long as another two or three months passed, he could fully recover.
Suddenly, Dou Cangqiong opened his eyes abruptly; his eyes were bloodshot, faintly carrying a hint of pain.
Pfft—
Dou Cangqiong opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, staining the ground bright red; his face, which had still had some color, became like gold paper.
With the death of the Demon Saint-level flood dragon, it directly caused Dou Cangqiong's injuries to relapse, and they were even worse than they had been over two months ago.
At this moment, Dou Cangqiong received the final scene before the fall of the Demon Saint-level flood dragon.
"It's you again, Li Zhangsheng!"
Seeing Li Zhangsheng's figure, Dou Cangqiong gritted his teeth, his face turning green and white, nearly vomiting blood again from anger.
After the death of the Demon Saint-level flood dragon, his strength was weakened once more.
"Sooner or later I will tear you into ten thousand pieces, but I suppose you won't be able to enjoy your glory for much longer!"
Thinking of this plan, Dou Cangqiong suppressed the depression in his heart, only able to try to think in a positive direction.
Because Li Zhangsheng's progress was too fast, Dou Cangqiong dared not wait any longer, so after defecting to the Profound Emperor, he immediately begged the Profound Emperor to make the decision for him.
The two could be considered old acquaintances; the key was that Dou Cangqiong had contributed a lot to the Profound Emperor obtaining the imperial throne back then; not only that, the two had once had an intimate relationship.
The Profound Emperor was finally moved by Dou Cangqiong; besides their relationship, it also had to do with Li Zhangsheng being too monstrous.
Because of Dou Cangqiong, Li Zhangsheng and the Profound Emperor's faction were already hostile; once Li Zhangsheng was allowed to continue growing, he might truly threaten the Profound Emperor in the future.
It was just that Li Zhangsheng was, after all, a member of the Human Emperor Mansion, and with the Human Emperor personally inquiring about this matter last time, the Profound Emperor dared not act openly.
No matter how conceited the Profound Emperor was, he did not think he would be a match for the Human Emperor.
Due to the Five Decays of Heaven and Man, the longer a Ninth-Rank Demon Tamer lived, the stronger their strength; after all, if their strength were not strong enough, the Human Emperor would not have lived to this age.
Since he could not act openly, the Profound Emperor could only choose to use other factions to kill Li Zhangsheng, eventually setting his sights on the Tengshe Abaresk, while the Great King of the Angry River was only one link, mainly used to contain Li Zhangsheng's allies.
As a result, the Great King of the Angry River was vulnerable before Li Zhangsheng, and he also lost Dou Cangqiong's Demon Saint-level flood dragon, causing his injuries to relapse.
As for the dead Profound Emperor's envoy, although in a sense it represented the Profound Emperor's face, this matter could not be publicized at all, otherwise the Human Emperor would likely inquire about it, and the Profound Emperor could only swallow his pride.
Not mentioning the thoughts of the Profound Emperor and Dou Cangqiong, Li Zhangsheng did not stay long in the Wangjiang, riding Aixi back to the Langya Kingdom.
Over these past few days, the Langya Kingdom had gained astonishing harvests, not only collecting a large number of wild spirit beasts that met the requirements, but also gathering the materials to refine the Spirit Essence of the Pale Cat.
On the way back to the Langya Kingdom, Li Zhangsheng began to examine the two treasures obtained from the Profound Emperor's envoy.
These were two water-drop-shaped treasures, about the size of an infant's fist, looking like the highest-quality diamonds; just by taking one look, one's mind would be involuntarily attracted.
