Chapter 662: 9 Nightmares, Dao Ye Wants to Make Money
Chapter 662 Nine-headed Nightmare, Dao Ye wants to make money (two in one)
"!?"
In the starry sky, a giant snake entwined the sun, its nine heads dancing, shattering the stars.
"This this……"
Even though they were separated by tens of thousands of miles of space, Li Xuanyong could feel an indescribable terrifying aura coming towards him, causing him to be terrified:
"Yu Wangxian, this is the Nightmare Hydra?!"
Li Xuanyong felt all the hairs on his body stand up.
The Nightmare Hydra is a terrifying beast born in the "Witch God Realm" deep in Guixu. According to legend, it was born with nine heads and therefore has nine lives. It feeds on souls and can roam in the nightmares of all living beings.
Among the witches and priests who blocked the Weitian Dao Sect from opening up the road back to the ruins in the past, there was a nightmare hydra of terrifying level!
"Roar!"
The horrifying roaring sound echoed in all directions in the starry sky. It was an extremely ferocious magical power that did not require air as a medium. It covered half of the starry sky in an instant.
Li Xuanyong felt a black screen before his eyes and a mouthful of blood spurted out. In a trance, he felt his mind flying into the darkness and was about to fall into an extremely terrifying nightmare.
'not good……'
Li Xuanyong sensed that something was wrong, but no matter how he struggled, he could not wake up. He could only watch his five senses disappear one by one and he was about to fall into a nightmare.
"You evil creature, you dare to act so rudely in front of me!"
Suddenly, a loud shout exploded, without any medium, and it exploded in Li Xuanyong's heart. He shuddered suddenly and retreated in horror.
At the same time, he threw out the Skeleton Demon Mountain in his arms:
"Catch it!"
boom!
The Skeleton Demon Mountain swelled up in the wind, and in the blink of an eye it had expanded tens of millions of times. The void around it was shaking, and ripples visible to the naked eye were surging.
Like a meteor striking away.
Call ~
Jiuyan Luo wrapped his body and retreated tens of thousands of miles before Li Xuanyong dared to raise his head.
I saw the place where the Skeleton Demon attacked, and the starry sky was shining brightly.
A huge sun was burning fiercely, emitting terrifying light and heat that was enough to burn the soul. He looked far away and just then he saw a figure standing behind the sun.
It was a Taoist priest with a big beard. He stepped out from the sun with one arm raised high and five fingers opened and closed. They were obviously only the size of an ordinary person, but he actually gave people the terrifying illusion that he was holding the whole sun!
But Li Xuanyong knew that this was not an illusion.
This is……
"Qianyang Wuji Dao!"
"???"
From the unnoticed void, a thin line fell here. Before Li Yuan recovered from the discomfort of being swept across at high speed, he felt a stream of terrifying aura that made his hair stand on end.
He looked at it in horror.
In the starry sky, I saw a nine-headed giant snake dancing, like a terrifying monster in ancient legends.
In the dazzling divine light, the Taoist stood tall, with five fingers spread out, grasping the scorching red sun, and slowly pushing it, using the sun to patrol the sky.
"Fuck me!"
Li Yuan felt his heart pounding as he passed by the sun. He strained his eyes but could only see a flash of extremely dazzling light.
That day, the Taoist priest pushed up the sun, and it collided with the terrifying monster with nine swaying heads.
Boom!
The sky and the earth are all white, and everything in front of me is black.
Even in the strange state of heavenly tribulation, Li Yuan had the horrible illusion that his five senses were collapsing, because the scene before him had exceeded the limit of his perception!
The eyes cannot see and the spirit cannot feel.
Only two vague outlines can be seen in the darkness, and a fierce confrontation that shakes the world breaks out in a way beyond imagination!
boom!
boom!
It was as if a high-intensity collision of tens of millions magnitude broke out in an instant.
Li Yuan felt his heart and soul trembling. The sound of the collision accumulated to a horrifying degree. Even though it did not affect him, it made him feel hopeless and as if his soul was about to be destroyed.
"Roar!"
Li Yuanqiang urged the military talisman to strengthen his spirit, and just then he caught a glimpse of a corner of this shocking battle from the gap between the collision of light and shadow.
A nine-headed giant snake, a bearded Taoist priest, a bird-man with wings and a giant human-like demon that seemed familiar to him...
"That's the Skeleton Demon Mountain?!"
This thought flashed through Li Yuan’s mind.
However, he saw that the huge mountain of bones that had expanded to the point of shocking him trembled violently, and an old man's face appeared on the mountain wall, uttering a voice that was clear even in such a violent collision:
"Nightmare Hydra, Feathered Serpent... Junior Brother Yu, you are so lucky that you can encounter this?"
hum~
The voice that came out of the old man's face was obviously not a normal sound transmission. Its speed was extremely fast. At the same time, white mist burst out from the giant mountain, which was enough to fill the starry sky.
In the white fog, humans and demons lined up, and the bone soldiers clanged. Then, countless bone Taoist soldiers emerged like a flood, turning into thousands of bone chains, crisscrossing like a net.
At a speed that seemed extremely fast, but was actually even faster, the entire starry sky, including the nightmare hydra, was covered:
"Junior Brother Yu, you owe me a favor!"
"Shu~"
A thin line cuts through the void.
After getting away from the battlefield, Li Yuan's five senses finally stabilized, and then he saw the figure of a Taoist priest with a big beard.
The man stood in the starry sky, with the blazing sun hanging high behind his head. After speaking to the old man, he nodded and said "OK", then opened and closed his five fingers again and shouted:
"Here comes the sword!"
"Zheng!"
Li Yuan heard the sound of a sword, a sound that seemed to be transmitted directly through the laws of heaven and earth and exploded directly in his heart.
He looked intently, but could only vaguely see a golden thread cutting through the void.
Immediately, he heard a terrifying howl!
Not one sound, but nine!
The thin line fell towards the boundless land, but Li Yuan's eyes were still looking at the starry battlefield. He saw rivers of blood flowing and nine huge and ferocious snake heads as big as stars and moons falling.
"The Demon-Refining Immortal-Slaying Sword!"
When this thought came to his mind, Li Yuan's five senses all collapsed and he fell into deep darkness. He only heard a loud laugh:
"My path can be accomplished..."
……
……
boom!
There were nine loud noises in succession, like meteors falling to the ground.
Li Xuan used the Nine Smoke Net to get closer, and saw from afar that the ground in the "Beichen Realm" was turning upside down, large areas of mountains were overturned, rivers burst their banks, and the sea was surging.
He could see clearly that the huge continent where the nine snake heads had fallen had been shaken into dozens of pieces, and the sea water was dyed red by the snake blood and the volcanoes erupting from the seabed.
Countless birds, beasts, fish and turtles were shaken into mud by the air waves, but more birds and beasts were attracted by the snake's blood and madly rushed towards the dozens of broken continents covered with natural disasters.
"receive!"
Li Xuanyong raised his head.
Yu Wangxian took out a yellow gourd from his arms and tossed it up gently. Infinite suction force spread out, and hundreds of blood streams like rivers gathered from all directions and sank into the gourd.
"Although the blood of this reptile is not pure enough, it is a nightmare hydra after all. Its flesh and blood is of great value..."
Yu Wangxian raised his hand to take off the heavy gourd, nodded with satisfaction, and suddenly raised his hand and threw the gourd to Li Xuanyong:
"Brother Li, how about this gourd of snake blood as part of your reward?"
"I……"
Li Xuanyong took the gourd, and Jiuyanluo's heart sank. He did not answer directly, but looked carefully at the Skeleton Demon Mountain hanging in the starry sky:
"Brother Tongqian... I, I..."
"Brother Yu has already informed me. Otherwise, do you think you can take down the Man-Devil Mountain?"
The old face on the Human Demon Mountain laughed loudly:
"However, it is not okay for you to take my magic weapon without informing me... Hmm..."
As he hesitated, Li Xuanyong suddenly became trembling with fear. He caught a glimpse of Yu Da Huzi’s smiling face from the corner of his eye and started cursing in his heart again.
"I will punish you to refine this treasure for free for a hundred years!"
After saying that, the Man-Demon Mountain had shrunk to the size of a human head and fell into the arms of Li Xuanyong, who bowed to accept the punishment.
"Don't worship, the old Taoist has already left."
Seeing that Li Xuanyong was still hesitant to stand up, Yu Wangxian found it quite funny. When the latter looked at him angrily, he straightened his expression and bowed:
"Thank you very much, Senior Brother Li, for your help!"
"…Thank you, but next time something like this happens, please don't look for me again."
Li Xuanyong then started to play with the heavy gourd, but he couldn't help but look at the huge snake corpse in the starry sky:
"This snake bone?"
The blood of the Nightmare Hydra is naturally a good thing, but for him, the snake bones are more useful. The nightmare snake bones close to the sixth level are enough for him to train a team of fifth level white bone demons!
If he had a team of fifth-level skeleton demons to protect him, he would dare to explore those other dimensions!
"Wait until I cast a spell to extract the nightmare power contained in its body, and then I will give the snake bone to you!"
Yu Wangxian didn't care either.
He was very specialized in practicing magic. Apart from the Qianyang Wuji Dao, he only had the sword for refining demons and killing immortals. He had no use for other magic, scriptures, or Taoist weapons.
"Om~"
Before Li Xuanyong could even thank him, he heard a trembling sound.
Yu Wangxian raised his hand, and the big sun that he had been kneading for a long time descended under the huge snake corpse, with blazing flames that wrapped it up.
"Refining the devil!"
Yu Wangxian snapped his fingers and threw the Zhuxian Sword into the flames. He concentrated for a moment and frowned in surprise.
The nightmare power contained in this nightmare hydra was one tenth less than he had estimated, but then he thought that it might be because the blood of this snake was impure.
I don't care anymore.
"This is enough for once..."
……
……
The Skeleton Demon Mountain, Taoist Tongqian, Yu Wangxian, the Demon-Refining and Immortal-Slaying Sword, the Nightmare Hydra, the Feathered Serpent...
The heavenly tribulation was different from listening to the heavenly music. Its speed was extremely fast, but even if it was just a fleeting glimpse that passed by, Li Yuan was still greatly shocked.
Even though the heavenly tribulation was over, he was still a little dazed.
"...What a great Immortal Execution Sword!"
When Li Yuan came back to his senses, his heart was still filled with the shadow of the sword.
"Wow~"
At this time, Li Yuan heard the sound of the tide, which was the sound of catching a huge catch.
He quickly gripped the rod tightly and looked intently, only to see a giant snake over thirty feet long with nine ferocious heads hanging on the hook!
"Nightmare Hydra?!"
Li Yuan was startled and immediately realized something was wrong. The giant snake hanging on the fishhook was indeed lifelike, but if you look closely, you will find that under its lifelike shell, it is empty inside.
"This is a snake slough..."
Li Yuan felt relieved, but also a little disappointed. He really thought he had caught a nightmare hydra cub.
However, his attention was immediately drawn to the snake slough:
"It seems that I can indeed influence the direction of Tianjie's fishing to a certain extent, but it is very limited. I was chanting "Black Vine Snake Shedding" in my mind before..."
"Wow~"
Li Yuan reeled in his pole, and the huge snake skin had already fallen on the gray stone platform.
"It's such a big snake, but its skin is only this small?"
The snake skin that is more than thirty feet long is certainly not small, but compared to the giant snake body that was just glimpsed, it is pitifully small.
Li Yuan took a quick glance and saw a message coming from the platform:
[Nightmare Hydra Shedding (Level 13)]
[…A nightmare nine-headed snake that was born in the ‘Witch God Realm’ deep in Guixu. It left behind a snake sheath when it tried to advance to the sixth realm. Because its original body failed to advance, the snake sheath is only a ‘fifth realm treasure’. It contains remnants of divine prohibitions and nightmare power…]
[…The Nightmare Hydra is a Guixu beast born from the nightmares of living beings. It is said that the source of its bloodline is the ancestor of the Nightmare Hydra in the Wushen Realm…]
[……? ? ?] [Control conditions: Hydra bloodline]
[You can obtain the divine prohibition left in the snake's slough by controlling it]
[Imperial Divine Prohibition: ???]
"Snake slough of the Half-Sixth Realm..."
Perhaps it was because the scenes he just experienced were too horrifying, Li Yuan was surprisingly calm when he saw the snake shedding its skin.
"It can be used to refine treasures. As for controlling... the blood of the Nightmare Hydra, I don't have it either..."
Li Yuan calmed himself down and read through the sentences one by one, his mind focused on the last one.
Unlike all of the above, this message is as red as blood, carrying a deep warning that makes people feel uneasy.
[Note: There is a trace of nightmare energy left in this snake slough, which seems to contain a trace of nightmare power left by the original nine-headed snake. You can choose to refine it...]
[Note: When reciting the original nightmare ancestor Hydra Ancestor, one may be able to sense something in the dark...]
"Nightmare power? What's it for?"
Li Yuan was a little frightened. It was the first time he saw such a display on the stage.
He looked carefully at the huge snake skin, and faintly saw a wisp of barely perceptible dark purple gas in it. Apart from that, there were some residual divine prohibitions.
"A trace of nightmare power left behind by the original Hydra..."
Looking at that ray of nightmare power, Li Yuan had a vague understanding in his heart.
The greatest gain from this heavenly tribulation may not be this snake slough at the half-sixth level, but this wisp of nightmare power...
Although he didn't know the origin of the Nightmare Hydra, nor did he know the use of this nightmare power, he still understood the importance of the word "Original Ancestor".
"The source ancestor of the Nightmare Hydra lineage...maybe you will feel something just by saying his name?"
Li Yuan glanced at the purple gas in the snake's skin with fear. He was always a man who listened to advice. Not to mention muttering, even the complete words such as the original ancestor, nightmare, and nine-headed snake ancestor would not flash through his mind.
During the three months since he joined Dongxuan Mountain, although he did not exchange many martial arts manuals due to his limited money, he read various free experience and travel notes every day.
In a travelogue, he had seen such a statement, which said that if a strong person had cultivated to an incredible level, his soul could crawl out from the mind of anyone who recited his name, even if he died!
"This world is too dangerous..."
Thinking back to the fishing grounds, fishing lines, and the hideous nightmare Hydra he saw while fishing, Li Yuan felt that exploring the netherworld and other dimensions was not a good deal.
The water in Guixu was too deep, and the thought of it was terrifying.
He was even a little afraid of this man hijacking the stage.
This calamity was too random. What if he accidentally threw the hook onto a monster beyond his cognition?
"The space where soldiers are held may not necessarily be safe."
Taking a look at the inky darkness surrounding the stone platform, Li Yuan felt that he should be more careful. It was okay to listen to the heavenly music, but the heavenly tribulation should not be used too frequently.
"I wonder if this snake molt will be useful to the black vine snake?"
Li Yuan carefully guided the purple energy and carried it in a fragrant cauldron. He made sure that there were no other foreign objects in the snake skin before exiting the military space.
……
Woo~
When Li Yuan opened his eyes, he heard a slight sound of breaking air. He glanced over and saw the little mouse playing with the black vine snake.
In terms of rank, the Black Vine Snake is naturally far superior to the little mouse which was originally just a field mouse, but the former has no intelligence at all and only subtle instincts. Under Li Yuan's will not to harm the little mouse, the former is even suppressed and played with by the latter.
"You little guy."
After seeing this scene, Li Yuan felt a little better. This heavenly tribulation had put too much pressure on him.
"Squeak~"
The little mouse ran into Li Yuan's arms, chirping softly, asking for something.
"One 'Transcendence Pill' is enough for you to digest for three years. If I give you another one, you won't be able to finish it!"
Li Yuan refused without hesitation.
The Transcendent Pill was a kind of first-level spiritual pill that was given as a gift when he bought the 'Xuanshui Pill' three months ago. It was cheap and one could buy thirty-two bottles with one small skill, which was enough to support thirty-two spirit beasts to enter the first level.
Xuanshui Dan is the second-level elixir he uses to speed up the refining method. A small skill can only make three bottles, which are only enough for him to use for ten days, but he thinks it is worth it.
It has only been three months since he cultivated his magic power, but he now has twelve magical powers in his body.
"Squeak~"
"go with!"
With a snap of his fingers, the little mouse was suppressed. Li Yuan waved his hand, and the black vine snake shaped like a piece of dead vine fell into his palm. It swam gently, instinctively happy and attached.
"As expected of an alien beast, its aptitude is much better than that of the little mouse..."
Li Yuan felt satisfied as he stroked the snake's body.
Spiritual beasts naturally have qualifications, but the classification is not as strict as that of cultivators. He feels that if the little mouse has a first-level talent, then this black vine snake is at the fourth or fifth level.
The gap between the two is probably that between Cao Yan, the head manager of the weapon forging shop, and Wan Zhuliu of the past. The gap is very obvious.
The same Transcendent Pill takes the little mouse three years to refine one, and it is estimated that it will have to eat twelve before it can achieve enlightenment. However, the Black Vine Snake only takes three months to digest one, and this one pill alone shows signs of achieving enlightenment.
This is because the latter lacks intelligence, otherwise it could be even faster.
"hiss~"
Perhaps it noticed that Li Yuan was in a good mood, the black vine snake gently stuck out its tongue and happily swam between his fingers, only avoiding the human-demon bone chain when passing by.
The black vine snake has no intelligence, but has extremely strong instincts and is very sensitive to crises.
"Don't rush into Taoism. It will be beneficial for your future if you accumulate more experience."
Li Yuan nodded at the snake's head.
The first step of the Dongji Qingdi Longevity Sutra is planting trees. The cultivator needs to achieve the unity of three elements and cultivate magic power. As for the tree species, the minimum requirement is to enter the Tao.
No matter whether it is a spiritual beast, spiritual plant or cultivator, once they embark on the path of Taoism, they will not be able to merge heaven and earth, let alone pick the divine patterns.
"Take it easy."
Letting the black vine snake swim into the bamboo building, Li Yuan took a deep breath, took out the general knowledge ball, and opened up the Taixu Wanxiang.
"About the Guixu beast, the nightmare hydra."
hum~
After transferring ten yuan coins, a large amount of text messages appeared in front of Li Yuan's eyes:
[Nightmare Hydra: A top-level exotic beast deep in Guixu. According to legend, it is born with a certain kind of legal principle, and its lifespan is several times longer than that of ordinary exotic beasts...]
"That's it?"
Li Yuan was a little surprised, and couldn't help but speculate: "This should only show a very small part, is it because of insufficient authority? Or is there another reason?"
The authority of the disciples who enter the Dongxuan Mountain is very high. It is obvious that ordinary cultivators are not even qualified to know the content that he could not get.
"The origin of Nightmare Hydra."
Li Yuan remembered the warning from Renjietai and asked carefully.
[Based on the common knowledge of various fields, some search results are not displayed].
"Sure enough, not."
Seeing this, Li Yuan understood something.
The monks who enter the country may not be able to control all of their thoughts. Once they learn about the original nightmare Hydra, they may inadvertently think of its existence.
If it could really crawl out of the nightmare of people's thoughts, it would inevitably lead to a huge disaster.
'Perhaps there has been such an incident before?'
Li Yuan continued to try to search for answers, but questions such as 'the origin of Guixu's strange beasts', 'the power of nightmares', 'the world of witch gods', 'the origin of feathered serpents', etc. were not displayed at all.
"Deep in the Guixu, the Wushen Realm... maybe it is related to the Wushen and Zhus that Lingshu Tongzi mentioned before?"
Li Yuan guessed in his heart, but did not ask Lingshu Tongzi's opinion. He planned to go to the Sutra Library when he had time to see if he could find similar information.
"You can also try to listen in this direction. You never know what you might hear..."
Li Yuan was doing two things at once: listening to the music while immersing himself in the vast universe.
All the functions of the general knowledge ball are quite useful. Apart from the fact that it requires money, there is nothing wrong with it. However, he still spends most of his time browsing the universe.
In this vast universe, there is not only a vast amount of information, but also travel notes that are constantly "uploaded" to it by many cultivators, which are of great use to him in understanding the myriad realms of the heavens.
Suddenly, Li Yuan frowned.
[Insufficient Yuan coins]
"It's a den of money!"
Shaking his head, he took out another ten strands of Yuanhuo and exchanged them for 100,000 yuan coins. Li Yuan sighed in his heart and felt that he had to think of a way to make money.
Although he had only been in the training for three months, Li Yuan already felt the pressure from his lack of good deeds.
Not to mention the promotion of the Palm Sound Talisman and the Palm Tribulation Talisman, the resources required for the He Xuan Bing and his own practice also consume a lot of good deeds.
Take Xuanshuidan as an example.
His talent was enough for him to digest one every day, which was several times faster than that of cultivators with second or third level talent. He would consume one small power in ten days, and if he wanted to cultivate eighty-one Kunpeng magic powers, it would take at least four and a half years.
In addition, the Skeleton Demon is about to be promoted to the second realm. Regardless of consumption or further promotion, the required good deeds will also be greatly increased.
"I can learn the art of refining treasures, but to get started you need to pick various divine patterns, which I'm afraid won't be useful in the short term..."
"Learn from other brothers and go to the immortal city in the myriad realms? It's not impossible..."
Li Yuan was aimlessly searching for various information while thinking about it. Suddenly, he thought of the general knowledge ball.
"In fact, there are many ways to make money in the General Knowledge Ball."
Li Yuan's heart moved slightly, and he withdrew from the vast universe.
The Taixu Divine Realm covers all the realms of the heavens, and the number of cultivators gathered here is more than just huge.
There are many ways to make money in places like 'Taixu Market' and 'Battle Hall'. The former requires transactions and is a bit troublesome, but the latter is quite suitable for him.
"Shh!"
Li Yuan's mind moved, and the light and shadow around him changed into a dark and vast starry sky, and he entered the fighting hall.
The starry sky transformed by the Battle Hall has four parts, namely the Tianshiyuan Battle List, Invitation to Battle, Watching Battle, and Guiding Battle.
There are ways to earn Yuanhuo in these four parts.
Inviting a fight is the simplest. The entrance fee is ten Yuan coins, and you can get an extra five if you win. And this is just the most basic first-level fighting arena.
The ticket price for the second-level fighting arena is already over a thousand, and you can get 500 yuan coins for each victory.
"Inviting a fight earns the least Yuan Huo, far less than watching and guiding a fight. However, the latter two require great fame. For example, the Poison Dragon God Son 'Locust' can teach you how to fight, which is almost 2 million Yuan Huo at a time."
Li Yuan was thinking in his mind.
In the Battle Hall, the most profitable things are naturally guiding battles and watching battles. The former can earn hundreds of millions of Yuan coins at a time, and the latter...
Li Yuan looked up at the starry sky where he was watching the battle, and all kinds of text messages flowed down like a waterfall.
[The Red Veined Taoist of the Poison Dragon Academy accepts Xuanlong's invitation to fight the Fire Phoenix Clan's genius 'Phoenix's Son'... Five thousand Yuan coins are required to watch the battle, and fifty thousand Yuan coins are required to experience it firsthand]
Similar to guiding a battle, watching a battle also depends on reputation.
If one person watches the fight, in addition to Taixu Pavilion's commission, Fenghuang'er and Ying Xuanlong will share two thousand five, which is one thousand two hundred and five.
Ten thousand people watching the game, that’s twelve million.
[Phoenix invites Feng Wuding to a fight... (1.7 million people have watched the fight, and 36,000 people are currently watching)]
"One million and seven hundred thousand people are watching the battle!"
Li Yuan was a little shocked. This was just the number of spectators for one battle. Fenghuang had more than ten similar famous battles.
"No wonder these people offer bounties of hundreds of millions of yuan at every turn. They are making too much money..."
After calculating Fenghuang'er's total income, Li Yuan immediately became jealous and felt that this Battle Hall was indeed a good place:
"While practicing magic, you can also earn a lot of coins..."
"Done!"
