Chapter 835: Reappearing the
The Pegasus did not want to sit and wait for death, and crucially, it had never once finished off one of Li Zhangsheng's Demon Pets; it felt this violated its dignity as a Divine Beast.
Before being hit, the Pegasus spat out another mass of milky-white Heavenly Fire, which tore through the air and charged toward Aixi.
Among Li Zhangsheng's many Demon Pets, the one the Pegasus hated most was undoubtedly Aixi, so it naturally wanted to let Aixi experience the feeling of death as well.
Although death here would still result in being resurrected by the Heavenly Dao, the feeling of death was not pleasant.
The Pegasus had been stationed here for decades, and although it was usually only once every four or five years that someone chose this place, the number of challenges had still exceeded ten.
In these dozen or so challenges, even if the challenger eventually defeated the Pegasus, they often suffered heavy losses; how could it be like now, where not a single one of Li Zhangsheng's Demon Pets had been finished off yet?
As for why it did not use Heavenly Fire to attack Li Zhangsheng, it was truly because the Pegasus had little confidence; after all, Li Zhangsheng not only transformed into a hundred-armed Giant, but was also guarded by several World Wonders. Whether the Heavenly Fire could break through the defenses of these World Wonders was an unknown, not to mention that the hundred-armed Giant also possessed numerous Outer Arms for defense.
No matter how one looked at it, attacking Li Zhangsheng was a foolish decision.
After releasing the Heavenly Fire, the Pegasus was completely submerged by numerous area-of-effect offensives.
Not far away, Aixi saw the Heavenly Fire rushing toward it, was clearly given a huge fright, and turned to run.
At the same time, Li Zhangsheng tapped the Eight-Rank Star Palace Lotus Platform, instantly teleporting it between the Heavenly Fire and Aixi, intending to block the Heavenly Fire.
Of course, Li Zhangsheng would not be stupid enough to use the main body of the Eight-Rank Star Palace Lotus Platform to block it, but rather used the Starlight Barrier of the Eight-Rank Star Palace Lotus Platform to resist; otherwise, if the Eight-Rank Star Palace Lotus Platform were hit by the Heavenly Fire, it might cause damage to this World Wonder.
Compared to the Taiyin Token, the defense of the Eight-Rank Star Palace Lotus Platform was somewhat stronger, but it still only blocked the Heavenly Fire for a split second.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Aixi slightly changed direction, opening up a distance of nearly a hundred meters from the Heavenly Fire.
However, the Heavenly Fire also possessed a locking function, carving a parabola as it charged toward Aixi.
In this situation, Aixi had no choice but to charge toward the nearest Yuangungun.
Yuangungun was dumbfounded, yet felt something ominous in its heart, but it was too late by then; it saw Aixi brake, and in the instant before being hit by the Heavenly Fire, turn around Yuangungun, with the attitude of "let the friend die, not me."
Yuangungun wanted to dodge, but how could it avoid it with its speed? It watched as it was about to be hit by the Heavenly Fire.
At the critical moment, a gray beam of light accurately hit the Heavenly Fire, and while the two were locked in a stalemate, Yuangungun hurriedly transformed into a giant meatball, moving away at the fastest speed of its life.
This beam of light was the result of Day and Night, utilizing the opposing nature of light and darkness to fuse into Annihilation Power; its might was naturally far beyond what ordinary skills could compare to.
Unfortunately, the Heavenly Fire still held the upper hand, eventually breaking through the Annihilation Power.
However, after breaking through the Annihilation Power, the might of the Heavenly Fire was also depleted by more than half, and it was extinguished by the combined efforts of several Demon Beast-level Demon Pets before it could move far.
After the Heavenly Fire disappeared, Aixi breathed a sigh of relief, but unexpectedly, it was hooked by the neck by Yuangungun.
Before Aixi could react, it was submerged by a huge shadow.
Boom—
Yuangungun used a Mount Tai Pressing Down, directly pinning Aixi beneath it; it had almost been burned by Aixi just now. Although with the characteristics of the Eternal Indestructible Body, Yuangungun would likely not be finished off by the Heavenly Fire, the pain was still unavoidable.
Thus, acting on the idea of not letting revenge wait overnight, Yuangungun began to punish Aixi in its own way to prevent Aixi from "repeating the same mistake."
How heavy was Yuangungun's weight? The moment it was pinned, Aixi's tiger eyes bulged out; it struggled subconsciously, then stopped struggling, letting Yuangungun vent its emotions.
Yuangungun crushed down a bit, and seeing that Aixi was not struggling, it stood up feeling bored and pulled the lying-down Aixi up.
Seeing the two Demon Pets resolve their conflict in their own ways, Li Zhangsheng shook his head. He shook the gourd in his hand, and felt very satisfied after hearing the clanking sound.
During the battle just now, Li Zhangsheng naturally had not forgotten to collect the Pegasus's blood.
This was the blood of a Divine Beast, the kind where you wouldn't find such a shop after passing this village, so Li Zhangsheng naturally would not let this opportunity slip by.
Directly purifying the blood of a Divine Beast could reduce a large amount of processing, and the purification efficiency was far superior to ordinary Spirit Beasts.
Li Zhangsheng made a prediction; this Pegasus blood could at least purify two jars of Pegasus Essence Blood, and if some stock were added, perhaps it could allow Ning Bizhen to evolve again.
As a price, the Pegasus would likely have to be weak for a while.
The moment the Pegasus was defeated, the treasure pillar holding the treasures suddenly shone brightly, and the powerful Restriction on the outside disappeared.
Unlike previous experiences, the treasures in the treasure pillar did not detach themselves, but stayed quietly inside the treasure pillar.
Li Zhangsheng had already completed all the trials of the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm, so there was no need for the Heavenly Dao to do anything extra.
At the first opportunity, Li Zhangsheng impatiently came before the treasure pillar; he couldn't help but rub his hands and took two Jade Boxes out of the treasure pillar.
Li Zhangsheng opened one Jade Box first; inside was not a treasure, but a jade book made entirely of Preaching Jade.
This was also the second time Li Zhangsheng had obtained a jade book made of Preaching Jade; the first jade book recorded the "Nine Heavens Golden Palace Treasure Refining Art," which allowed Li Zhangsheng to become a Refining Master in a short time, as well as several unique refining techniques.
"This wouldn't be the Golden Chapter Jade Record, would it?"
At the thought of this possibility, Li Zhangsheng became instantly excited.
Legend has it that the "Golden Chapter Jade Record" is a product nurtured by the Heavenly Dao of this world, and is closely related to the origin of Monster Tamers.
The "Golden Chapter Jade Record" is divided into the Heavenly Dipper 36 Chapters, which record cultivation arts and secret techniques, appearing in the form of Golden Seal Script; and the Earthly Fiend 72 Chapters, which are all auxiliary skills, also known as the 72 Arts of Monster Taming, including alchemy, pharmacy, refining, Restrictions, etc., appearing in the form of Silver Seal Script.
No matter which chapter of the "Golden Chapter Jade Record" it is, it can only be described as a priceless treasure.
Li Zhangsheng impatiently opened the jade book. In an instant, dazzling five-colored light emerged, and twisted, complex characters floated out from the book, pouring straight into Li Zhangsheng's acupoint between his eyebrows.
Li Zhangsheng had not guessed wrong; this was indeed the Golden Chapter Jade Record, only unlike the silver characters from last time, these were golden characters, which was clearly a cultivation art or secret technique.
When all the golden characters had poured into the acupoint between his eyebrows, Li Zhangsheng quickly understood the meaning represented by these characters.
Only after reading all the content did Li Zhangsheng couldn't help but reveal a conflicted expression.
