Chapter 688: Collecting the Five-colored Peacock Essence Blood (Third update, for

Dean Ning Wei looked at Li Zhangsheng in surprise; she knew Li Zhangsheng could easily defeat a green dragon, but she had not expected it to be done in such a way.

If Li Zhangsheng were a King, Dean Ning Wei would not have felt strange, but Li Zhangsheng was merely a Pseudo-King; she had never heard of a Pseudo-King being able to kill an adult green dragon with a single punch, which simply refreshed her worldview.

Unlike Dean Ning Wei, Ning Bizhen did not feel much surprise; she was very clear that Li Zhangsheng's physical strength was far beyond what an ordinary Pseudo-King could compare to.

Li Zhangsheng's entire skeleton had been tempered into Jade Bone, and he had absorbed the Spirit Essence of a Hundred-Armed Giant and a Basalt Essence Blood, and he also practiced a Star-Light Demon Taming Art that increased physical strength, so his physical strength was naturally far beyond that of an ordinary Pseudo-King.

Li Zhangsheng collected the green dragon's corpse, quickly cleared the traces at the scene, and said to Dean Ning Wei, "Let's continue on our way!"

"Okay!"

Dean Ning Wei responded subconsciously and hurriedly steered the Flying Dragon Carriage to continue circling around.

Although shocked by Li Zhangsheng's strength, Dean Ning Wei felt exceptionally at ease instead; the stronger Li Zhangsheng's strength was, the more favorable it would be for this exploration of the Ruins.

After spending more than half an hour, the Flying Dragon Carriage circled around, only then bypassing the territory of the Beintan bird.

According to Dean Ning Wei's description, they still had to bypass the territories of two or three Demon King-level Spirit Beasts before they could reach the Ruins.

At this moment, Li Zhangsheng's expression stirred, as if he had discovered something, and he couldn't help but say to the two people on the carriage, "Wait for me here for a moment!"

As soon as Li Zhangsheng finished speaking, his figure had already disappeared.

Dean Ning Wei opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.

Within a few breaths of time, Li Zhangsheng appeared above a small lake.

In the sky not far away, two large peacock-type Spirit Beasts were hunting several small bird-type Demon Pets in the air.

These were two three-colored peacocks, possessing the bloodline of a Five-colored Peacock, and they were also Li Zhangsheng's target this time.

From the time he absorbed the Hundred-Armed Giant Spirit Essence until now, Li Zhangsheng had not absorbed any other Divine Beast Essence Blood for more than half a year.

Regarding the nine Divine Beast Essence Blood slots for the "Xuanji Nine Transformations Demon Taming Art," Li Zhangsheng had long since made preliminary plans.

Among them, the Five-colored Peacock was exactly one of his targets, but Spirit Beasts possessing the Five-colored Peacock bloodline were relatively rare, and he had not yet collected them all.

The Five-colored Peacock was also a top-tier avian Divine Beast, but it possessed the five elements attributes, and its innate skill, Five-Colored Divine Light, was invincible; it was not only the nemesis of five-element type Demon Pets, but also possessed the peculiar effect of capturing people and objects.

Li Zhangsheng was very greedy for the Five-Colored Divine Light; if he encountered five-element attribute Demon Pets in the future, it would definitely have miraculous effects.

In addition, absorbing the Five-colored Peacock Essence Blood could also allow his physical strength to rise again.

Now that he had managed to discover two three-colored peacocks, how could Li Zhangsheng miss them? With these two three-colored peacocks, plus his previous stock, he had enough confidence to collect a full jar of Five-colored Peacock Essence Blood.

In the sky, the two three-colored peacocks were fast, and in the blink of an eye, they each caught and killed two small bird-type Spirit Beasts.

Three-colored peacocks were different from ordinary peacocks; they were not herbivorous Spirit Beasts, and their temperaments were cruel and tyrannical, which seriously contradicted their external image.

When Li Zhangsheng rushed over, the two three-colored peacocks naturally discovered Li Zhangsheng.

Although most of the nearby areas were territories of Demon King-level Spirit Beasts, some marginal lands were occupied by other Spirit Beasts, and this small lake was the territory of these two three-colored peacocks.

Wild Spirit Beasts attached great importance to their territory; once an intruder was discovered, unless the difference in strength was too great, they would often have to fight it out, which was usually a life-or-death situation.

Now that Li Zhangsheng had invaded their territory, the two three-colored peacocks naturally could not let him go.

These two three-colored peacocks were able to occupy a piece of land in such a place, so their strength was naturally quite extraordinary; they consisted of one Leader-level and one Leader-level, and they looked like a pair of mates.

"Datou, they are handed over to you!"

This time, Li Zhangsheng did not take action himself and summoned Datou, who was in the form of a Golden-Eyed Roc.

The reason for not summoning a Demon King-level Spirit Beast was mainly to avoid alerting the enemy, as there were several territories of Demon King-level Spirit Beasts nearby.

Chirp~

Datou let out a sharp and piercing cry, then transformed into a huge golden Residual Shadow, appearing above the two three-colored peacocks in the blink of an eye.

The two three-colored peacocks were clearly taken aback; before they could think too much, two huge roc claws grabbed down, wanting to catch them all in one net.

The Leader-level three-colored peacock reacted first and hurriedly dodged to the side, barely avoiding the crisis of being disemboweled by the roc claws.

However, the Leader-level three-colored peacock was miserable; its consciousness realized it, but its body did not react, and it was directly grabbed by the roc claws by its fragile neck.

The Leader-level three-colored peacock struggled violently, but the roc claws were like steel bars, not loosening in the slightest.

Crack~

Datou tightened its roc claws and twisted hard; accompanied by a crisp sound of bone breaking, the three-colored peacock's head twisted violently, and it no longer had any signs of life.

Squeak~

Seeing its companion killed, the Leader-level three-colored peacock couldn't help but let out an angry cry, the three-colored feathers on its tail flashing with rich Five-Colored Light, launching the Five-Colored Divine Light, wanting to temporarily trap Datou.

If one observed carefully, one would find that the gold, Wood, and Water Attribute energies were significantly brighter, while the Fire and earth were much dimmer, which was mainly related to its attributes.

It was also because of this that the three-colored peacock could not fully exert the full power of the Five-Colored Divine Light.

Swish~

The attack speed of the Five-Colored Divine Light was unimaginably fast, and in an instant, Datou was enveloped by a colorful ball of light.

In the sky, the three-colored peacock tried its best to drag the colorful ball of light into its three-colored feathers for refining; this was the same principle as a python swallowing prey into its stomach to digest it.

Inside the colorful ball of light, Datou first folded its wings, and countless light cyan energies gathered at the ends of its wings, followed by flapping its wings hard, and the sharp cyan cold light fiercely Cutting into the colorful ball of light.

Boom~ Clatter~

If it were five-element energy, Datou's offensive might have been neutralized by the colorful ball of light, but this was Wind Element energy, which caused the effect of the Five-Colored Divine Light to be greatly reduced.

Consequently, the colorful ball of light paused slightly, then could no longer withstand it and exploded with a bang.

A look of fear flashed in the three-colored peacock's eyes; it could clearly feel that Datou's strength was far above its own, so how could it not feel terrified, subconsciously wanting to escape.

Before the three-colored peacock could escape, Datou flapped its wings and instantly appeared in front of it.

The three-colored peacock subconsciously wanted to counterattack, but it was easily avoided by Datou; Datou did not give it a chance, and its sharp Bird Beak pecked down hard, directly piercing through the three-colored peacock's neck.

Squeak~

The three-colored peacock let out a terrified cry, blood gushing from its neck like a fountain, spilling down from the air.

After struggling a few times, the Leader-level three-colored peacock tilted its head, and it no longer had any signs of life.

Li Zhangsheng collected the three-colored peacock's corpse, and incidentally, the fresh blood gushing from the wound on its neck was also collected without missing a single drop.

This battle was very easy for him, taking a total of one minute; after returning, he could absorb the Five-colored Peacock Essence Blood and obtain the third transformation ability.

"Sorry to keep you waiting!"

After Li Zhangsheng returned, this time the Flying Dragon Carriage detoured toward the southwest.

They encountered quite a few wild Spirit Beasts along the way, but after sensing the aura of Fifth-tier Beastmasters emanating from the three of them, most wild Spirit Beasts wisely chose to retreat, and the rest were all easily dealt with by Dean Ning Wei.

Under the route planned by Dean Ning Wei, they did not encounter any Demon King-level Spirit Beasts along the way, and the Flying Dragon Carriage arrived at the destination without any alarms or dangers.

This place was a wilderness where almost no green could be seen; in the densely wooded Silent Forest, it could be said to be quite abrupt.

Li Zhangsheng carefully sensed it; the energy density of this wasteland was far lower than the normal level of the Silent Forest, which was no wonder there were not many wild Spirit Beasts nearby.

"The Ruins are right ahead!"

Soon, Dean Ning Wei led Li Zhangsheng and the other person to a desolate mountain.

Looking at the desolate mountain in front of them, Li Zhangsheng and the other person did not see any Restriction, and they did not even find the entrance to the Ruins, so they could not help but look at Dean Ning Wei with puzzled eyes.

"The Restriction at the entrance of this Ruin is quite peculiar; it only appears after being attacked. It also took me a lot of time to figure it out."

While speaking, Dean Ning Wei used Mental Power to condense a milky white ray of light and shot it toward the rock wall to the side.

Pop~

When the milky white ray of light touched the rock wall, that part of the rock wall flickered violently, and then the rock wall disappeared, revealing an entrance more than ten meters high.

The entrance was covered with a thick, earthy-yellow Restriction, which seemed to contain astonishing defensive power, making it impossible to see the scene inside at all.

"If it is not attacked again, the entrance to the Ruins will disappear in ten seconds."

Dean Ning Wei continued: "In addition, this Restriction can Devour energy within a radius of dozens of miles. Unless the attack intensity exceeds its recovery speed, or one possesses a Forbidden Bead or a treasure that can block the energy absorption effect, there is no other way to break it."

"Let me try!"

Li Zhangsheng possessed a Forbidden Bead, but the energy of the Forbidden Bead was already running low; unless the Restriction could not be broken, it was impossible for him to use it here.

However, besides the Forbidden Bead, Li Zhangsheng also possessed a treasure that could block the energy absorption effect.

With his current strength, he had no intention of hiding his wealth, and besides, the rank of the Imitation Demon Refining Pot among World Wonders was not very high.

The next moment, the Imitation Demon Refining Pot flew to the top of the mountain and began to spin rapidly, swallowing and devouring all kinds of energy within its range.

Countless points of energy light swarmed over, being absorbed by the Imitation Demon Refining Pot like swallows returning to their nest, making the energy nearby increasingly Sparse.

The Devour range of the Imitation Demon Refining Pot was not as good as a Forbidden Array, but it could significantly slow down the speed at which the Forbidden Array devoured energy.
