Chapter 171 - Natural Flame Soul EssenceLi Mu and Huntian did not expect that the Earth Dragon would actually possess such a divine ability. Without waiting for Luan Tian to say anything, Li Mu subconsciously reacted and poured all of the True Essence in his body into the Vermillion Bird Mirror. This time, he did not hold back as he activated the greatest power that the Vermillion Bird Mirror could muster.
"Squeak!"
A bird cry came out from the Vermillion Bird Mirror. The seemingly simple and unadorned Vermillion Bird Mirror had countless fiery red runes flickering on it. A Vermillion Bird Fire Spirit Bird whose entire body was burning with desire and had an appearance similar to that of the legendary Spirit of Myriad Flames rushed out from the Vermillion Bird Mirror.
Without waiting for Li Mu to use his consciousness to control it, the Flaming Great Bird flapped both its wings, and two flame tornados flew out, flying straight towards the flame tornado. Clang clang clang clang clang clang.
The scorching hot temperature evaporated all the water on the ground, the soil was burnt black, and some of the broken stones were melted. The Flaming Great Bird"s attack had blocked the yellow flaming tornado in front of it, and although it did not destroy the flaming tornado, it was unable to move forward at all.
The Earth Shattering Dragon saw from afar that its powerful attack was actually blocked by Li Mu, and a fierce look flashed across its single eye. It opened its mouth and spat out a yellow colored beast core.
Under the control of the Earth Shattering Dragon, the earthen yellow Demonic Core turned into a streak of light and fused into the earthen yellow flaming tornado."Buzz!"
Under the fusion of the earthen yellow colored beast core, the fire energy in the flaming tornado increased by more than twice, and a destructive aura emitted from it, scaring both Hu Qiang and Shen Cai Qing who were in the distance to the point that their faces turned pale.
"Nice!"
The Vermillion Bird screeched as it faced the yellow colored flame tornado that was more than twice as violent. It flapped its wings five times in succession, each strike bringing with it a fierce fire essence energy. It blocked the earthen colored flame tornado in front of it, preventing it from taking another step forward.Li Mu"s face turned white, all of the attacks the Vermillion Bird released had all been absorbing the True Essence in his body, and with just five slaps, almost seventy percent of the True Profound Spirit Qi in Li Mu"s body had been drained, to such a shocking degree, even with Li Mu"s Heaven Grade Technique, he was unable to take it anymore.
"Mu Xiaozi, looks like this Earth Shattering Dragon has mutated in the fire attribute. This is not easy, normally, the strength of mutated beasts is much stronger than beasts of the same rank, if this goes on, you will definitely not be able to hold it off, so you must quickly think of a way to retreat!"
Luan Tian sent a sound transmission through Li Mu"s mind.
"What did you say?" Why didn"t you say so earlier, didn"t you want my life!? "
Even if he wanted to, he couldn"t retreat at all. As long as he retreated, the yellow colored flame tornado would definitely press down on him, and at that time, he would definitely die. He did not think that his own defense could defend against such a blazing flame.
"d.a.m.n it, this is the bit of Essence that this Demon King had acc.u.mulated with great difficulty. It seems like it"s going to be wasted here!"However, before he could make his move, the giant fire bird that had been fighting the flaming tornado suddenly underwent a change. Its body shrunk to the size of a watermelon without any warning, and with a flap of its wings, it charged straight into the earthen yellow flaming tornado.
"What is it doing!"
Li Mu was so scared by this sudden scene that his whole body started to sweat.
"Break for me!"
In his desperation, Li Mu could only keep the Vermillion Bird Mirror, and then use all of his strength to slap out with the palm of great sorrow. This time, the palm of great sorrow unleashed a transcendent power, and the golden buddhist hand displayed the word "swan".
The golden buddhist hand blocked in front of Li Mu like a golden wall, blocking him behind it. Just like this, Li Mu didn"t give up, and with his other hand, he activated the dragon claw hand. A golden dragon roared out, and turned into a second layer of defense behind the Golden Buddha Hand.Just as Li Mu made this series of defensive measures, the Earth Shattering Dragon unexpectedly let out a painful howl and started rolling on the ground. In the end, it directly escaped into the ground and disappeared without a trace.
Li Mu had originally thought that the yellow colored flame tornado that was charging towards him would suddenly scatter in mid-air, and after that, with a flash of fiery red light, the fire bird that was as big as a watermelon dispiritedly flew in front of Li Mu, flapping its wings in front of its body, and continued to cry out.
"This... What"s going on? What happened to the Muddy Heavens, what about the Crushing Ground Dragon? "I don"t think I saw it take back its beast core!"Li Mu rubbed his eyes in disbelief. Even now, he still could not believe what was happening in front of him.
Mu Xiaozi, you picked up a treasure! It"s really unexpected, really unbelievable! This Flame Spirit Essence in the Vermillion Bird Mirror was actually able to produce such a divine ability, it swallowed the Earth Shattering Dragon"s beast core!
Laughing loudly with excitement, that voice even made Li Mu shudder a little."What?" What? Did this little guy just swallow the Earth Shattering Dragon"s beast core? "How could it be? It is just a strand of an unformed artifact spirit, how could it swallow the beast core of a rank 4 beast?"
Li Mu asked in surprise. Looking at the dispirited Firebird in front of him, he was a little confused.
"I don"t know either. I originally thought that this wisp of Flame Soul Essence was formed from the soul of some low-level demon beast, but it doesn"t seem to be like this. It"s a Xiantian Flame Soul Essence.Hun Tian said excitedly. Although Li Mu did not understand the meaning behind his words, but seeing Hun Tian"s excited look, he knew that it must not be simple.
He took out the Vermillion Bird Mirror and with a flick of his wrist, the Firebird transformed into a streak of fiery light and returned into the Vermillion Bird Mirror.
"Luan Tian, what exactly is the advanced ability that you mentioned? Seeing your excited expression, I became even more curious. This is the first time I"ve seen you act like this. "Li Mu secretly transmitted after putting away the Vermilion Bird Mirror.
"Let me tell you this. Do you still remember how I told you about the artifact spirit formation?" It is to extract the soul of some low level demon beasts and erase their memories before merging into the Soul Treasure. Although the success rate is extremely low, it is still possible for the initial stage of the artifact spirit to be born. This initial stage will increase the power of the artifact spirit as the level of the artifact increases. "
"However, in this world, there is a type of innate spirit. It is similar to the Firebird in your Vermillion Bird Mirror. Elves like this are extremely rare in the cultivation world, but they have also appeared before."
"My Phecda Continent has a sect called Water Cloud Sect, their sect"s most precious treasure is a Three Emperor Water Spirit Seal. This seal was originally created by a supreme expert with great Transcendence, but because the artifact spirit was nurtured by an innate water spirit, it possessed a terrifying devouring ability. Under the water element materials that Water Cloud Sect used at all costs, it was able to successfully turn into a sacred weapon ten thousand years ago, shocking the entire Phecda Continent!"
He explained in detail to Li Mu, but the excitement in his words had yet to recede.
"So powerful, but is this a mistake? Although the power of the Vermillion Bird Mirror is not bad, but from a small sect like the Cloud Cracking Sect, how could they have obtained the Flame Spirit Essence?" and even a.s.similated it into the Vermilion Bird Mirror. If it had such a profound mystery, they would have discovered it a long time ago. " Li Mu asked doubtfully."Mm, what you said isn"t wrong. Could it be because …" Could it be because of the heliogram fragment s that it had mutated? Or was it because I wiped out its consciousness and caused it to mutate? "
Luan Tian thought about it again and felt that Li Mu"s words were reasonable, and started to ponder.
"Brother Li, are you alright? You are so powerful, I wonder how you cultivate. You actually managed to beat a fourth grade Earth Breaking Dragon and even took its beast core!"
That"s right, didn"t you say that you did not borrow any spiritual treasure from Clan Elder Chi Yun, you are still hiding your strength!Shen Cai Qing and Hu Qiang arrived in front of Li Mu, and upon seeing that he was fine, they heaved a sigh of relief, but they admired Li Mu"s power.
"How could it be a secret? This Soul Treasure is not something that my master bestowed upon me, but a gift from a member of my clan. I will not use it unless I have no other choice."
Because Li Mu had previously told Hu Qiang that he did not manage to borrow a spirit treasure from him, when Hu Qiang saw Li Mu"s Vermillion Bird Mirror, he said that Li Mu had hidden it away. Thus, Li Mu had no choice but to tell him the reason that he had thought of long ago, not long ago, he had also told Shen Cai Qing about this matter, and that was why he kept Shen Cai Qing in his mouth."So that"s how it is. Truly powerful. It is a Soul Treasure after all. Otherwise, how could it display such terrifying power?"
Hu Qiang said with emotion, he believed that he would only have the chance to vent his anger when faced with the last terrifying attack of the Earth Dragon.
"Oh right, Brother Hu, how did you meet this Earth Dragon? Shouldn"t you have been chased by those black-cloaked men?"
Li Mu changed the subject and asked about Hu Qiang"s reason.After we broke through each other"s encirclement that day, I was chased by the five peer s for a day and a night. In the end, I exhausted all of my methods to kill all of them, and I still had to rely on the Soul Drop Roar as a martial skill.
Who would have thought that I would meet up with this Earth Dragon this morning. I was almost ambushed by it, and after a long and bitter battle, I was able to escape and fight until the two of you arrived. "
Hu Qiang spoke of his own experiences, his face full of bitterness."It"s good that you"re fine. It"s not safe for us to travel alone in this d.a.m.ned place. Oh right, do you have any news of our fellow martial brothers? I was being chased by a sacred art expert, so I didn"t have the time to take care of them."
Li Mu consoled Hu Qiang with one sentence, then asked about other people"s news.
When I was trying to break through the encirclement, I saw Zheng Kun getting one of his arms cut off by a black clothed man of another cultivation realm. Because he was walking in a hurry, he did not have the time to look at him, but the odds are against him.
said in a regretful tone. Even though he and Zheng Kun were not very familiar with each other, they were still brothers from the same sect after all, and if Zheng Kun really fell, he would naturally feel the sadness of a fox dying a rabbit.
