Chapter 609: Wandering Flying Sword
Chapter 609: Wandering Flying Sword
snort~
The sword rang loudly and the lightning flashed brightly.
In an instant, Li Yuan felt a vast expanse of white before his eyes. The dark place that was originally like dusk and night suddenly became as bright as day, covering an area of more than a hundred miles!
"Roar!"
The roar of the blood-horned bull rang out, but was soon drowned out by the sound of swords.
Li Yuan's eyes narrowed, and his gaze passed through the extremely dazzling lightning and saw the source of the sword sound.
A sword?
"No, it's a flying sword!"
Li Yuan had excellent eyesight, and even the sword light that instantly illuminated a hundred miles only made him slightly dazed.
It was an indigo-colored flying sword with a sharp edge but no handle. There were various lightning patterns flowing on it and layers of sword lights surrounding it. It flew through the dark realm, and wherever it passed, no matter if it was a blood-horned bull or something else, it was all cut into two pieces.
"So fierce!"
Li Yuan's eyelids twitched wildly.
In the past three years, he has dealt with these blood-horned bulls many times and is well aware of their ferocity.
The strange beasts originated from the fallen monks who fell into the dark realm of the gods. They were transformed from the spiritual images and divine patterns of those monks. They were neither alive nor dead and were extremely difficult to deal with.
With his current level of cultivation, even with the support of many mysterious weapons in the Weapon Control Talisman, he has yet to kill a single one.
But wherever the flying sword passed, the blood-horned bulls had almost no chance to fight back and were cut in half...
"Fraudulent soldiers!"
The little female dragon also saw the flying sword.
"A strange soldier."
At the foot of a low mountain, Li Yuan hid in the shadows and did not move until the herd of cattle and the flying sword disappeared from his sight. Then he rushed out and rushed towards the remains left by the herd of blood-horned cattle.
The strange beasts come from the spiritual form and divine realm of dead monks. The flesh and blood remains left after being killed are certainly extraordinary. However, if they are not collected by anyone within a short period of time and are not protected by incense, they will quickly be assimilated by the netherworld.
Swish!
Li Yuan moved at a very fast speed, sweeping across the battlefield.
He wasted almost no time, but most of the corpses of these strange beasts had already melted away. Li Yuan felt a little sorry, so he rolled up the red "remains", turned around and disappeared into the dark world outside the door.
That flying sword is too dangerous, so it’s better to stay away from it.
……
"call!"
In Longshan’s room, Li Yuan let out a sigh of relief.
"The dark realm outside the door is too dangerous."
Li Yuan looked solemn.
Whether it was the herds of blood-horned bulls or the strange flying sword, they were both extremely dangerous to him now. He didn't dare to stay in the secluded area outside the Bafang Temple for a long time.
“Although Wan Zhuliu built the Divine Palace, if he encounters a herd of blood-horned bulls or that flying sword, he won’t be much better off than me.”
Li Yuan felt slightly comforted.
Given the dangerous level of the secluded area outside the Eight Directions Temple, it would be very difficult for Wan Zhuliu to offer sacrifices to foreign gods or the Cloud Demon Clan even if he wanted to do so as he worried.
"Wan Zhuliu can't possibly sweep the Nether Realm's strange beasts for no reason. He's probably preparing for a sacrifice... Well, if he really dares to hold a sacrifice in the Nether Realm outside the gate..."
Li Yuan calmed down, and then at the urging of the little female dragon, he took out the remains left by the blood-horned bull.
There were twenty-one balls of scarlet light in total. The flying sword swept across the sky for only a few breaths, and it killed twenty-one blood-horned bulls that were comparable to those at the Divine Palace level.
“It’s brutal.”
Li Yuan felt a little nervous at the thought. If the flying sword targeted him, he doubted that he would be able to teleport back in time.
"Snapped!"
Li Yuan moved as fast as lightning and grabbed the little female dragon that was rushing towards the red light ball. The latter couldn't struggle free, but was still drooling:
"There are so many, give me half, give me half!"
"Think beautifully!"
Li Yuan held the little female dragon in one hand and crushed a blood-colored ball of light with the other.
hum~
A dazzling red light bloomed before my eyes.
Li Yuan closed his eyes and concentrated his mind, focusing his consciousness on the Niwan Palace.
In the embryonic form of a vast divine realm, the shadow of a blood-horned bull roared like a dragon or an bull, and soon turned into a stream of light. Under Li Yuan's gaze, it sank into his troop-raising land.
“It’s a divine pattern.”
Li Yuan stared at the troop raising ground.
In the bare military training ground, three shadows emerged. One was in the shape of a sword with a dragon and a tiger on it, the second was in the shape of a hammer with a black whale on it, and the last one was the afterimage of a blood-horned ox.
"Red-blooded Bull Demon!"
The moment he stared at the residual image, various scriptures emerged in Li Yuan's mind. Although there were only a few hundred words, they made his heart skip a beat.
"Taojutsu!"
The Red Blood Bull Magic Art is a Taoist magic that is driven by the 'Bull Demon Divine Mark' as its core. When released externally, it can transform into a blood-horned bull to kill the enemy. When nurtured in the divine realm, it can increase the power of a 'blood-horned bull' for oneself.
Of course, this requires the 'Bull Demon Divine Mark' and the cultivation of the Red Blood Bull Demonic Art to the ninth level of perfection.
"The fragments..."
After silently reciting the fragments of the sutra that emerged in his mind, Li Yuan opened his eyes and, under the unwilling gaze of the little female dragon, he picked up the remaining red light balls one by one. Three, six, eleven...
"It takes sixteen to complete the Red Blood Bull Magic Technique..."
In the Niwan Palace, Li Yuan was very satisfied as he looked at the lifelike shadow of the blood-horned ox above the military training ground.
The sixteen balls of light not only complete the Red Blood Bull Demonic Art, but also form a complete 'Bull Demon Divine Pattern'. At the same time, this Taoist technique can be directly introduced!
“That’s the beginning?”
Feeling the embryonic form of the divine realm and his own changes, Li Yuan was a little astonished. According to the records of the Red Blood Bull Demonic Art, even with the Bull Demon Divine Mark, it would take ordinary practitioners 10 to 20 years to get started with this Taoist art.
“No wonder the Netherworld is so dangerous. There are still so many people in Tianshiyuan who continue to go there to become ‘seekers’. The ‘gifts’ from our predecessors are truly astonishing.
If we can kill all those blood-horned bulls, wouldn't we be able to cultivate this Taoist technique to the ninth level of perfection in an instant?"
Just thinking about it, Li Yuan felt the urge to return to the secluded world outside the door.
“The temptation is too great.”
Looking at the shadow of the blood-horned bull that was as big as a small mountain above the vast ocean, Li Yuan sighed. He had long known the benefits of venturing into the netherworld, but that was different from experiencing it personally.
hum~
In the room, when Li Yuan opened his eyes again, he felt that the blood in his body was so full that it was almost bursting out of his body.
"The entry into the Red Blood Bull Demonic Art is almost equivalent to transforming into a hundred forms and entering the blood!"
Li Yuan instantly controlled his surging energy and blood, but his eyes were bright.
With his current physique, he can actually feel an immediate improvement, which shows how great the benefits of learning this Taoist technique are.
It took him nearly three years to transform into hundreds of forms and enter the blood, and this was all for free!
"Save some for me!"
The little female longan was very hot.
"Can the Bull Demon Divine Mark help you repair your Divine Realm?"
Li Yuan asked.
"Uh……"
The little female dragon then remembered that her divine realm was now broken and could not accommodate any new divine patterns, let alone practice other Taoist arts.
"No."
The little dragonet was crestfallen.
"What divine pattern do you need?"
Li Yuan was a little curious. This little guy had hardly woken up on his own in the past few years.
"You didn't."
The little female dragon was very unhappy. Her divine realm and spiritual appearance were passed down from generation to generation in the Mirage Dragon clan. Although the required divine patterns were not rare, it was obviously impossible to find them here.
There's not even a dragon in this lousy place...
"Snapped!"
Li Yuan crushed the remaining light balls one by one, feeling the restless blood in his body, relaxing the friction of his internal organs and bones, and sighing comfortably.
"Compared to the hard work that takes time and effort, this way of training is really refreshing!"
Li Yuan was lost in thought for a moment, and only after a while did he let out a breath and started talking to the little female dragon about the Netherworld, Taoism, and the General Knowledge Ball.
The little female dragon had never heard of the Red Blood Bull Magic Secret, but Tianshiyuan, or Taixu Divine Realm, had its own definition of the grades of Taoist magic.
"The power of magic and Taoist magic can be judged by the level of the divine runes. The more divine runes are needed, the stronger they are. However, there are also some Taoist magic that only needs a single divine rune and are also extremely powerful."
"...I don't think the quality of the Taoist technique you obtained is very high."
The little female dragon felt a little comforted. What Red-blooded Bull Demon sounded like a common creature. How could it be compared with her own 'Thousands of Transformations and Mirage Dragon Technique'?
"Divine pattern?"
Li Yuan seemed to be thinking about something.
He didn't care about the quality of the Taoist magic he picked up for free, but he felt that the quality of this Red Blood Bull Magic Art might not be very low.
Although this Taoist technique only requires one 'Bull Demon Divine Mark' to practice, there are a large number of blood-horned bulls in the dark realm.
The little female dragon didn't care about these things. She said a few words and urged Li Yuan to go back:
"There is at least a Three Heavens Mysterious Land nearby, and maybe there is the divine pattern I need."
"You think too much."
Li Yuan waved his hand to interrupt. He had no interest in exploring any strange place, no matter how tempting it was.
He had only taken a few steps when he encountered a group of blood-horned bulls. After walking around for a while, he came across the flying sword.
The dark realm outside the Bafang Temple is too dangerous!
"you!"
The little female dragon was so angry that she didn't want to talk. This native was so timid.
"Can you defeat that flying sword? Or can you defeat those red-horned bulls?"
Li Yuan glanced at the little guy and felt speechless.
No wonder you have become so destitute that you don't even have a physical body anymore.
