Chapter 229: 150. Enter Moyun Palace, kill the East Sea Dragon King, meet his biological mother and teacher Yuyan (5K big Chapter)_2
After the three-headed tiger stone carvings "died," a Jade hairpin fell out from within. The head of the hairpin was designed as three tiger heads.
It can be activated by Magic Power, Yin Soul power, and Vital Energy and Blood.
Interesting!
Xu Xing took the Three Tiger Head Jade Hairpin into his hand, played with it for a while, and hid it in his sleeve.
He was preparing to exploit someone with it later. He wasn’t extravagant enough to use it as a hairpin just yet.
This Three Tiger Head Jade Hairpin was neither an Immortal Path magical artifact, nor a treasure of Vital Energy and Blood used by the Warriors of this world, nor a Soul Treasure used by Ghost Immortals. He guessed that the Gold Armor on King Li Hong of Chu was similar to this.
Walking out of the cave, he stepped into the corridor.
The world before his eyes changed in an instant. An enlarged version of a Palace appeared before him. The ceiling of the Palace was engraved with Celestial Constellations. The floor was covered with precisely cut slabs of beautiful jade, and the columns were made of golden lacquered wood. This lacquered wood was incredibly wide, requiring at least thirty people to embrace it. The wild grasses and flowers along the roadside were also tall, the shortest one being taller than Xu Xing himself.
These are illusory objects revealed through array techniques.
Xu Xing had initially planned to pick some spiritual grasses and flowers, thinking a thief shouldn’t leave empty-handed,
but found that as soon as he touched them, they dissolved into specks of white light and disappeared. Although the columns and floor were real, he couldn’t leave a mark on them even with his full strength.Celestial Constellations... First, let’s find out where Shi Yuyan is.
Shaking his head, Xu Xing no longer cared about these external objects or the meeting with the Three Great Demon Immortals. He took out the memory stone given to him by Heavenly Fox King Xiang Jun and began to look at the star map that appeared above Shi Yuyan’s prison room to find a path inside.
Given his mastery of array techniques, it wasn’t difficult for him to see the differences in the star map.
It’s in the southeast direction.
Xu Xing found the path and hurried toward it with all his Magic Power.
However, just as he arrived at the room where Shi Yuyan was imprisoned, he sensed a familiar aura.
East Sea Dragon King!
Xu Xing’s heart skipped a beat, his hairs stood on end, his Divine Soul warning him, and he pulled back quickly while crushing the tokens given to him by the Three Great Demon Immortals.
Damn East Sea Dragon King! He shouldn’t be fighting King Li Hong of Chu for the War God’s inheritance. Why did he come to the room where Shi Yuyan was imprisoned? he cursed internally. If I had known that the East Sea Dragon King would come here, I would have crushed the tokens given to me by the Three Great Demon Immortals right away.
Feeling the approaching presence of the Three Great Demon Immortals, Xu Xing didn’t rush to retreat further after distancing himself. He glanced at the East Sea Dragon King, who had emerged from the room, with a frown. "East Sea Dragon King, you should know that Demon Immortal Kou Chun coveted my Physical Body. I killed him out of self-defense, and he deserved it."
He didn’t think that a few words would dispel the East Sea Dragon King’s killing intent. He wasn’t that naive. Speaking now was just to buy time.
"Kid, you have quite a few secrets. Kou Chun’s death was not due to his miscalculation, but to a secret you possess," the East Sea Dragon King said. He stood in the void, his hands hidden in his sleeves. One hand formed a seal, while the other held a black dagger. Spiritual light radiated from the dagger, and killing intent leaked out, though he precisely controlled it within his palm.
Seeing that Xu Xing had stopped, the East Sea Dragon King was happy to talk with Xu Xing, hoping to seize an opportunity to kill him in one blow.
Both of them were trying to outwit each other.
"As for Kou Chun..." Xu Xing was about to continue speaking.
「At this moment」
The East Sea Dragon King’s killing move was finally revealed, directly cutting off his words. The black dagger shot towards Xu Xing’s brow with the speed of a vanishing meteor, aiming for his Niwan Palace.
This dagger is a Soul Treasure. Moreover, the East Sea Dragon King is an Eight Tribulations Ghost Immortal who has become a Yang God. A Leakproof Realm’s Vital Energy and Blood couldn’t wash away or contaminate the thoughts of a Yang God, unless that Vital Energy and Blood depleted the Yang God’s spirituality.
In the blink of an eye, a Carp Dragon Flying Sword shot from Xu Xing’s brow, intercepting the black dagger. This Flying Sword was the Soul Treasure left in Xu Xing’s Sea of Consciousness by Kou Chun.
However, there were more killing moves to follow.
Although the East Sea Dragon King was surprised that Xu Xing could also use Soul Treasures, he was an old, hidden monster accustomed to fierce battles. Seeing his first attack fail, he instantly transformed into a single-horned Flood Dragon and swam towards Xu Xing.
An Eight Tribulations Ghost Immortal could manifest in the mortal world without relying on a Refined Corpse. Consequently, the East Sea Dragon King’s movement speed far surpassed that of Golden Body Realm experts of the same stage. In just the blink of an eye, he closed in on Xu Xing. Forming a seal with one palm, he struck down at Xu Xing’s head with an Azure Dragon legal seal.
In close combat, Physical Body Warriors are invincible in the same Realm. However, an Eight Tribulations Ghost Immortal can already overpower a Leakproof Realm Martial Artist based on Realm alone. Although I could try to wear Xu Xing out by controlling Soul Treasures and various Divine Soul attack techniques, after the black dagger attack failed, I realized Xu Xing is not that simple. To kill Xu Xing as easily as an ordinary Leakproof Realm Martial Artist by relying solely on Soul Treasures seems inadequate. Therefore, I’ll abandon the long-range advantage of Ghost Immortals and crush Xu Xing with brute force to win swiftly.
Layer upon layer of Divine Soul attacks shook Xu Xing’s Divine Soul.
Xu Xing quickly formed the Mark of the Three-Worlds Bright King to withstand the East Sea Dragon King’s Divine Sense impact.
With the protection of [Bright King Body] and [Yanshen Body],
