Chapter 66: [Luring Demons to Exterminate the Clan, Bullying Demons Too Much] (Second update, please follow)
Continuing to watch, Lu Chengtong saw his grandson Lu Tongyun being subjected to Soul Searching by Zheng Lansong, and then, they extracted Lu Tongyun's essence blood; after verification, they found that the supernatural ability characteristics were not preserved.
Zheng Lansong had people temporarily lock Lu Tongyun up.
Then he sent a group of people to the city to monitor the Cheng family's reaction.
At the same time, Zheng Lansong seemed to be practicing some kind of evil secret technique and had been quiet for several days.
Lu Chengtong finished watching the images, his face somewhat uncertain.
And Lu Yiqiu was full of anxiety and anger, speaking up:
"Father, what should we do? Shall we go save Tongyun?"
He didn't say they must go, his tone carrying a hint of pleading.
That person is a mid-stage Golden Core existence, and his own father is currently seeking to break through to the Golden Core Realm, but clearly hasn't broken through yet.
Although Father is very mysterious and must have some kind of powerful means, just like the one he just displayed, a Foundation Establishment cultivator contending with or even killing a Golden Core cultivator seems impossible no matter how one looks at it.
Lu Chengtong frowned and raised his hand:
"You go out first, just say I am still in closed-door cultivation and cannot be disturbed. Continue to send people to increase the effort to track Tongyun's whereabouts; don't let the Zheng family suspect anything. I will handle the matters behind this; you all can't help much anyway."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yiqiu pursed his lips and wanted to say something more, but after seeing Lu Chengtong's gloomy expression, he retreated.
Lu Chengtong began to ponder the possibility of killing Zheng Lansong himself.
Judging from the aura of Zheng Lansong manifested by the supernatural ability, this guy should have the cultivation of the Fifth Layer of the Golden Core Realm.
On his side, there are not many things that can threaten a Golden Core cultivator.
The most direct one is naturally the clone Lu Chengyao, who has now reached the Second Layer of the Golden Core Realm; in the eyes of outsiders, he is still in the late stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Then there is the Treasure Mirror with the soul cultivation of the First Layer of the Golden Core Realm and himself with the soul cultivation of the Sixth Layer of the Golden Core Realm.
Furthermore, there are the two Ice-Fire Demon Insects he has been raising.
His own physical body has reached the peak level of a low-grade defensive spirit tool, and he can almost avoid injury even when taking a Golden Core attack head-on; if he stimulates the Fire Vulture Demon King Golden Core in his body, it is not impossible to burst out with Golden Core combat power for a short time.
Besides that, he has also refined quite a few spirit tools.
Having the experience of killing Zhao Yongcheng last time, Lu Chengtong still has some confidence in taking down a Zheng Lansong.
But he likes to do things thoroughly; once he takes action, it is aimed at exterminating the clan.
Killing one person is easy, but exterminating a clan is troublesome; he needs a legitimate reason, a legitimate identity.
He does not want anyone to delve deeply into the matter of the Zheng family being exterminated or the Zheng family ancestor being killed, as this might bring trouble to him again.
Moreover, he does not like to stand in the spotlight, so he must let someone else stand out.
Or, not a human?
Thinking of this, Lu Chengtong had a plan in his heart and drove his clone to start taking action.
Tanxiang Prefecture is a good place; it is located in the area between the Stone Carbon Mountains and the Wan Xiang Mountain Range, which can be said to be surrounded on three sides, leaving a gap.
If it were a secular war, this place could also be considered a good place that is easy to defend and hard to attack.
And the reason the Zheng family chose to develop and settle here is because the Spirit Qi here is rich, having obtained the Spirit Qi of the Wan Xiang Mountain Range, blocked here by the Stone Carbon Mountains, which is very suitable for the development of cultivators.
Every matter has its pros and cons.
Being adjacent to the Wan Xiang Mountain Range means one needs to pay attention at all times to the demonic beasts wandering out of the mountain range to cause trouble.
The scale of the Wan Xiang Mountain Range cannot be compared to the Red Mist Mountain Range, but there are also several powerful Golden Core Demon Kings within it. In order to gain a foothold here, Zheng Lansong once went to visit these demon creatures together with several elders of the Jinfeng Immortal Sect.
Demon cultivators generally do not actively come out to eat people; compared to ordinary people in the outside world, they prefer to eat demonic beasts full of Spirit Qi.
The so-called Demon Clan is a general term; in fact, it is composed of various races, each serving as food for the others.
Therefore, those Demon Kings are not harmonious among themselves either. After being warned by a group of Golden Core elders of the Jinfeng Immortal Sect, they actively restrained their subordinates and did not let them go down the mountain to cause trouble.
But in recent years, demon chaos has increased.
The Ziyao Immortal Sect's management here is relatively loose, and various families have just gained a foothold in these places and have not developed enough foundation, so they are unwilling to actively look for trouble.
The Zheng family is suffering here.
They have already lost quite a few clansmen, but Zheng Lansong does not dare to go to their door to look for trouble; he does not want to attract a siege, as that would bring a devastating disaster to the Zheng family.
Hmm, Lu Chengtong decided to find some trouble for him.
He just killed a Foundation Establishment clansman of the Zheng family, who was guarding the edge of the Wan Xiang Mountain Range, named Zheng Qiu Hua.
From his memory, he learned about some grievances between the Zheng family and several Demon Kings.
He already had a simple plan in his heart.
First, Lu Chengtong entered the Wan Xiang Mountain Range and incited a beast tide with the 【Bewildering Soul Seizure】 supernatural ability.
The demonic beasts attacked, rushing out of the mountain range; Zheng Qiu Hua and the others fought back together, and then killed their way into the mountain range, killing all the way to the territory of the Ice Toad Demon King, and killed quite a few of its disciples and descendants.
This Demon King was specifically chosen by Lu Chengtong.
In fact, most demon creatures do not have descendants, just like cultivators; they pursue longevity themselves, so what is the use of having descendants?
But the Ice Toad Demon King is different; it has many descendants. In the 'Ice Toad Lake' of this Wan Xiang Mountain Range, it sits on over a hundred concubines, among whom are Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining ones, all of the Ice Toad race.
Every year, it produces many offspring.
Among these offspring, it selects the strong ones to cultivate, while the weak ones serve as its food and raw materials for cultivation.
Lu Chengtong killed his way in here and also drove away a large group of demon creatures.
He directly ruined the Ice Toad Lake.
He even blew open a large hole on the lake surface, blowing the Ice Toad Demon King's descendants to pieces, flying all over the sky.
At this time, as if suddenly remembering something, he shouted to the Zheng family members beside him:
"Not good, this is the Ice Toad Demon King's territory, let's go quickly!"
As he spoke, he was the first to rush out.
No sooner had his voice fallen than a huge ice-blue toad with a width of over eight zhang emerged from the lake water.
Suddenly, it swept out its tongue, and several Zheng clansmen were swallowed into its mouth.
Lu Chengtong was afraid that this guy would eat all the Zheng family members, so he hurriedly grabbed two and then quickly fled the Wan Xiang Mountain Range.
"Where are you going!"
The Ice Toad Demon King roared violently and then jumped out of the water; with a light leap, it covered over a hundred zhang, and it looked like it was about to catch up with Lu Chengtong.
Lu Chengtong, however, burst out with even faster speed.
The Ice Toad Demon King's cultivation is only at the Fourth Layer of the Golden Core Realm, two layers higher than Lu Chengtong's Golden Core clone.
It is not good at speed, while Lu Chengtong is flying on his sword.
As he flew, he shouted:
"Ice Toad Demon King, I advise you to behave yourself. My family's Ancestor has the cultivation of the Fifth Layer of the Golden Core Realm; even without the help of the Jinfeng Immortal Sect elders now, you are no match for him. Hurry up and get back! Otherwise, when my Ancestor arrives, he will definitely skin you and pull your tendons, and stew you together with your descendants!"
"Zheng family! Bullying demons too much, today this King will fight you Zheng family to the death!"
The furious Ice Toad Demon King increased its speed again; at the same time, Lu Chengtong's main body disguised himself as another Zheng family member and reported the intelligence of encountering an attack by the Ice Toad Demon King at the border, requesting support. ===== CHAPTER 67 =====
