outside Dan Wang City. But the intelligence of these shrimp soldiers and crab generals was rare, comparable to very few others he had encountered. Most golden elixir monsters were in a state of ignor...Li Danwang's side was making rapid progress. The fusion of the four demon creatures, Mud Pup, Sand Demon, Glazed Water Demon, and Transparent Jellyfish, consumed not much blood essence power. Lu Xiaoteng put away these four-fused souls, then began to fuse another six-fused soul demon creature mainly based on the Blue Shark

Not only is it incredibly fast underwater, but it's also fearless when facing an enemy. 。Lu Xia Tian spent day and night tempering his soul in Liefeng Gorge, merging his souls. 。Finally, a shark's body, a carp's head, and a sawfish's fins. 。Red as a demon's eyes, swordfish fins on both sides, and each with a sac of ink. 。This creature, which appears to be extremely bizarre, yet its lines are incredibly smooth. It looks fierce and full of power. 。

Since the amalgamation of this chimeric beast was not long, King Li Dan sent word through his emissaries, urging Lu Xiaoteng to meet him in Yun City.

At this time, Ye Ziyu was in seclusion within Liefeng Gorge. Lu Xiaoteng bid farewell to Yu Zimo and the Wild Boar Demon separately, leaving a sound transmission talisman for Yu Zimo to be passed on to Ye Ziyu later. He said he would go to find Li Danwang to inquire about alchemy and study the methods of refining Buddha Dust Cleansing Bone Pill. He might spend a few years or even decades there, depending on the circumstances. 。When Lü Xiaitian broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm, he had revealed his thoughts to Ye Ziyuyu. After his magical power also broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm, he would go with her to find Wu Changlian. 。Of course, the search for Wu Changlian has never been relaxed. 。 also left another faction for Ye Ziyu, and Lu Xiaoteng was also searching for Wu Changlian's whereabouts through the relationships of Yuantang in the chaotic Yao domain. 。Wu Changlian entered the Nascent Soul Stage thousands of years earlier than the two of them, and his cultivation base was much deeper. 。If the opponent, Wu Chang Lian, only focused on dodging, finding him would be like searching for a needle in a haystack. 。And both of them had only just broken through to the Fusion Realm. 。The top priority now is still to solidify one's foundation. Otherwise, even if we find Wu Changlian, we might not be able to kill that old monster. 。反而打草驚蛇 This means "to alert the enemy" or "to spoil things by making noise". 。

Arriving at the small town in Yunzhou with ease, Li Dan Wang was still as old and frail as ever, lying half on that stone chair. When he saw Lu Xiaoteng arrive, he lazily opened his eyes.

"Are we almost ready"

"We still need the soul of the combined realm demon beast in Li Dan Wang's hands." 。Luk Xiaodao 。"Curse Oath Pill, after ingesting it you swear an oath, to go to Qianyin Temple and retrieve the Buddhist sect's treasure for me, and I will give you what you desire." 。Li Danwang extended his palm, and a yellow pigeon egg-sized spirit pill flew toward Lu Xiaoteng. This spirit pill emanated bursts of binding power. 。"Look at this elixir, it should be quite old. It's a fourth-grade elixir that only a master alchemist can refine. Its rarity is comparable to the Buddha Dust Cleansing Bone Pill. Lord Li had been preparing for this for quite some time." 。Lu Xia Tian reached out and took the Oath Pill. 。"The old man had long since given up hope of breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm. The only thing keeping him going until now was a lingering ambition in his heart." 。It's a pity that no other cultivator willing to give it a try. 。Your skills are not the best in my eyes, but besides you, I truly don't have any other options. 。"Li Dan Wang shook his head, speaking without the slightest regard for Lu Xiaoteng's face." 。Lu Xiaoteng smiled when he heard this, directly swallowing the oath-swearing pill, and then swore according to what Li Danwang said. This oath didn't explicitly state the mission details, after all, Lu Xiaoteng wasn't stupid enough to make a vow that would result in dire consequences if he failed to complete the mission. 。This journey was fraught with danger from the start, to be able to return alive already counts as a blessing. One shouldn't ask for more. Lu Xia Tian's accomplishments depend on both his strength and luck, neither of which can be lacking. 。"This is a map of the Qinyin Temple. The old man once stayed in the Qinyin Temple for a period, and by chance, he got it. After so many years, I don't know if there have been any changes." 。"Seeing Lu Xia Tian's face was not looking good, Li Dan Wang smiled calmly, "Of course, even if there are changes, it's only partial. The outcome of this trip depends on your own fortune." 。After finishing his words, Li Danwang fused the Nascent Souls of several demonic beasts at the Hunyuan stage together and gave them to Lu Xiaottian. 。Besides the ice python Yuanshen in Li Danwang's hand being at the middle stage of the Heping realm, what surprised and delighted Lu Xiaoxiao was that the Qingdiao Yuanshen in Ming Shenhuo's hand was also at the middle stage of the Heping realm. In addition, there were a Yixiang Yuanshen at the early stage of the Heping realm and a Bi Xue Centipede Yuanshen. 。It seems my luck is still pretty good. 。“For every additional fused spirit of a demonic beast that Lu Xia Tian absorbs, his chances of survival increase.” 。Unfortunately, Lu Xia Tian's cultivation of the (Soul Tempering Art) was not yet mature enough at this time. He couldn't temper and merge the soul essence of a Nascent Soul Realm demonic beast. Otherwise, his strength would have reached new heights, taking him even further. 。"Good luck" Li Danwang's eyes drifted with a hint of sinister smile on his face. 。"What's wrong" Seeing Li Danwang's smile, Lu Xiaoti felt a bit uneasy in his heart. 。“The new information I received is that Qianyin Temple recently invited Mingyi Zen Master to give lectures and pass on Dharma at Qianyin Temple.” 。Li Danwang said. 。That is to say, there's another high monk who has achieved the state of integration at the Qinyin Temple. 。"Someone who can go to Qianyin Temple to preach scriptures and techniques must have considerable skill. At least they should be on the same level as the abbot of Qianyin Temple, a mid-stage or late-stage Nascent Soul" Lu Xia Tian's face immediately turned extremely ugly, "Why didn't you say this earlier>>>" 。"I also only recently received this news, Master Ming Yi, a monk in the middle stage of the Hunyuan Realm. However, you seem to lack a sufficient understanding of Buddhist practitioners. Those who can be called Masters are at the top of their class in the middle stage of the Hunyuan Realm, a powerhouse on the verge of reaching the later stage." 。His actual skill is even above that of the head priest of Qianyin Temple. 。With your cultivated unorthodox cultivation technique, if you were to encounter Mingyi Zen Master, it would indeed be dangerous. 。"Li Danwang let out a hearty laugh, "But every advantage has its disadvantage. Master Mingyi going to Qinyin Temple to preach and impart teachings means there will certainly be countless monks from all over the land flocking to Qinyin Temple." 。Perhaps this could be a good opportunity to fish in troubled waters. 。"How to blend in and pretend to be a monk" Lu Xia Tian's heart skipped a beat. Li Dan Wang had spared no expense for this operation. After all, the old king's lifespan was less than a hundred years, and all his wealth was for that Buddhist artifact to fulfill his wish." 。It's certain that countless preparations were made. Prince Li Dan posed no threat to me, we had no grievances against each other, so there was no reason for him to go to such lengths. In the end, he led me into a death trap. 。“Well, back then, the Jade Bead Buddhist Sect and the demon clan's world-renowned powerhouses had a battle. Both sides vowed to make the chaotic Demon Realm a buffer zone. No strong cultivators from either side could enter the Chaotic Demon Realm. Anyone who violated this rule would have their primordial spirit eroded by the will of the Demon Realm Soul Stone, resulting in death.” 。The Chaotic Demon Domain lives up to its name, even a Core Formation expert from the Tujia Buddhist Sect wouldn't dare enter. Void Refinement experts are not bound by this, but those who come here, besides alchemists like me or some weapon smiths and talisman makers, most ordinary monks would likely lose their lives. 。"For this, I used some means outside the Chaotic Demon Domain to control several monks. Starting from low realms, I laid out a plan. Now there are one or two who have grown to the Divine Void Realm. You can also take their place and enter Qinyin Temple." 。ly be a bit weaker.” Wu Youcheng hesitated before saying this.After Wu Youcheng left, Lu Xiaotian's eyes showed a thoughtful look. After a moment, he shook his head again. Just by using the essence of...
