Chapter 824: Crystal Blood-Transforming Sunflower (First update, requesting all)

During its dive, the eyes of the Crowned Sunlight Luan revealed a hint of ruthlessness; it overloaded the energy within its body, and its entire form was enveloped in intensely rich flames, causing ripples in the surrounding space. Clearly, the power of this strike far exceeded Phoenix Wing Heaven Soar.

At the critical moment, the Crowned Sunlight Luan resolutely unleashed Burning Body Explosion.

"Oh no!"

Not far away, Yan Wanling, who had been closely monitoring the battle, saw her expression change. But just as she was about to transmit an order to the Saint Grade Spirit Pet Golden Dragon, the Crowned Sunlight Luan slammed fiercely into the barrier that had not yet vanished from the Golden Dragon's body.

Pop~

The sturdy golden barrier fluctuated violently, then shattered with a boom. Clearly, the Crowned Sunlight Luan's Burning Body Explosion had reached the power of a Demon Saint.

However, in order to break the golden barrier, the impact force of the Crowned Sunlight Luan was inevitably weakened significantly.

Rumble~

The moment the two collided, red and white flames erupted, sweeping violently toward the surroundings.

During this process, the body of the Crowned Sunlight Luan also flashed with a rich red light; like a bird-flesh bomb, it exploded along with the flames. A frantic sea of fire rose, shrouding everything within a hundred-meter radius, from which the screams of the Saint Grade Spirit Pet Golden Dragon and Adai could be heard.

That's right, Adai could not dodge in time and was also caught in the aftermath. Even though the Saint Grade Spirit Pet Golden Dragon bore the brunt of the damage, Adai was still severely wounded.

After completing the Burning Body Explosion, the Crowned Sunlight Luan inevitably transformed into a giant egg.

Unfortunately, because the distance was too close, the Saint Grade Spirit Pet Golden Dragon, which had been knocked to the ground by the Crowned Sunlight Luan, swung its tail and instantly shattered the giant egg.

The next moment, a stream of light instantly surged into Li Zhangsheng's Yin Tang acupoint. Under the protection of the Heavenly Dao, the Crowned Sunlight Luan was resurrected and returned to the Demon Pet Space.

According to the rules, before passing this trial, Li Zhangsheng could not summon the Crowned Sunlight Luan again.

Although the Crowned Sunlight Luan had disappeared, it did not mean the flames dissipated immediately. Because the Crowned Sunlight Luan had comprehended the Undying Essence, the flames lingered for a long time.

In the sea of fire, before the Saint Grade Spirit Pet Golden Dragon could climb up from the ground, Adai did not retreat from the flames; instead, enduring the pain of the burning, he grabbed the left dragon wing of the Saint Grade Spirit Pet Golden Dragon with one claw.

Rip~

The dragon wing was much more fragile than the torso. Even though most of the power was negated by the Essence Origin Protection, Adai's claw still pierced through the left dragon wing. A sound like tearing cloth rang out, and a wound nearly ten meters long was ripped open.

Roar~

The Saint Grade Spirit Pet Golden Dragon let out an angry roar, pinned Adai beneath its crotch, and struck Adai's head repeatedly with both claws.

Thud~ Thud~

Muffled sounds echoed. Adai's head was severely distorted, but contrary to the expectations of the Saint Grade Spirit Pet Golden Dragon, Adai's vitality was extremely tenacious; despite suffering such fatal injuries, he simply refused to die.

This was naturally the perverse ability of the second stage of the Eternal Indestructible Body characteristic, the God Race Undying Body; even if only a piece of flesh remained, as long as there was sufficient energy, it could fully recover.

Clearly, Adai was still a distance away from death.

"Kailan, go!"

It was also at this moment that Li Zhangsheng abruptly sent Kailan over.

The reason was simple: the spherical treasure Li Zhangsheng had locked onto had dimmed to the extreme, and its speed was far from what it had been before. It could be said to be already in his pocket, so even if he pulled Kailan away, he could still handle it easily.

On the other hand, Yan Wanling's progress was a beat slower than Li Zhangsheng's.

As for Ning Bizhen, although her strength was not as great as Li Zhangsheng's or Yan Wanling's, because she was not distracted, her progress was actually a step or two faster than Yan Wanling's.

At this time, Ning Bizhen resolutely sent her strongest Great Sun Fire Crow and Long-Eared Cold Jade Rabbit to support Li Zhangsheng, while her other Demon Pets continued to suppress the portal-type treasure.

"Tsk tsk, Yan Wanling is likely finished!"

Not far away, Wen Zetao, leaning against the Yuanchen Treasure Pillar, saw this scene and couldn't help but mourn for Yan Wanling.

Unless Yan Wanling possessed a powerful trump card, failure would likely await her.

At the same time, Wen Zetao had also come to understand Li Zhangsheng's true combat power; in the confrontation with Yan Wanling, he was not at a disadvantage at all.

Don't look at the fact that Li Zhangsheng had lost the Crowned Sunlight Luan and Adai could not recover his combat power in the short term. But as a price, Yan Wanling's Saint Grade Spirit Pet Golden Dragon had also suffered non-trivial injuries, and its left dragon wing had been torn open with a huge wound, which would inevitably affect its speed and agility.

Not only that, Li Zhangsheng and Ning Bizhen had also dispatched three Demon Beast of the Master Race, making the situation quite unfavorable for Yan Wanling.

Yan Wanling was also very clear that her situation was dire. She felt a bit of regret in her heart for not agreeing to all of Wen Zetao's conditions earlier; otherwise, the situation would not have deteriorated to this point.

But there was no regret medicine in this world. To turn the situation around, Yan Wanling had to use her bottom-of-the-box trump card.

She did not want to lose, and she could not afford to lose!

If she were defeated, it would not only mean that Yan Wanling had lost the only spot to enter the core area, but it would also deal a huge blow to her prestige. The loss was so great that she didn't even dare to think about it.

Before Kailan, the Great Sun Fire Crow, and the Long-Eared Cold Jade Rabbit arrived, Yan Wanling resolutely took out a spirit plant.

This spirit plant looked a bit like a sunflower, but it gave people a crystal-clear feeling, as if the whole body were carved from clean crystal.

This was a Top-tier Heaven and Earth Treasure—the Crystal Blood-Transforming Sunflower. Its effect was very special: as long as it was consumed by a Demon Pet, it could temporarily raise that Demon Pet's realm to the next stage, though the increase was limited to the Demon Saint level at most.

In other words, the Crystal Blood-Transforming Sunflower was ineffective on Saint Grade Spirit Pets.

Of course, the Crystal Blood-Transforming Sunflower also had powerful side effects; it would raise the realm by burning the essence, energy, and spirit. The duration was closely related to the quality, race, and Bloodline of the Demon Pet, but it could only be maintained for five minutes at most.

Yan Wanling took out the Crystal Blood-Transforming Sunflower, naturally wanting to let a Demon Beast temporarily reach the Demon Saint level, which would be enough to greatly increase her combat power in a short time.

The next moment, Yan Wanling summoned a Demon Beast Red Dragon that was suppressing a treasure and immediately threw the Crystal Blood-Transforming Sunflower into the Red Dragon's open mouth.

In an instant, the Demon Beast Red Dragon let out a painful Dragon Roar, feeling as if the blood in its entire body were boiling. Veins bulged all over its body, and waves of tearing pain surged from all parts of its body. Its size suddenly grew as if it were a balloon being blown up.

In the blink of an eye, the Demon Beast Red Dragon surged from over fifty meters long to over seventy meters.

At the same time, the aura of the Demon Beast Red Dragon surged by a large margin, almost no worse than the Saint Grade Spirit Pet Golden Dragon.

"Kill them!"

Under Yan Wanling's order, the Red Dragon, temporarily boosted to the Demon Saint realm, flapped its sky-covering dragon wings and moved to support the Saint Grade Spirit Pet Golden Dragon.
