Chapter 124: Chapter 123: Tiger Fight
The Martial Fighting Ape, Yuan Dasheng, could also use spells.
However, Yuan Dasheng’s spiritual nature, which carried characteristics from his previous life, did not favor casting spells.
Ning Zhuo had to use the Mirror Stand Spirit Communication Technique himself to control the spiritual power within the mechanical body to release spells like Embrace Ice Technique.
“In fact, I can only use spells for a single burst,”
“Because the joint renovation team of the three families has yet to pass through the second house and hasn’t encountered the Embrace Ice Technique.”
Under such circumstances, it was inappropriate for Ning Zhuo to reveal the Embrace Ice Technique.
He had to wait until the joint renovation team came into contact with it and he “publicly” learned it, only then could he use it openly.
Ning Zhuo took out the Floating Cloud Handkerchief and enveloped himself and the desk.
From the enormous cotton ball-like clouds, occasional sounds of mechanical construction could be heard.
Ning Zhuo was crafting the Blood Oil Bottle mechanical component!
The specific design came from a reward in the Demon Sect’s third trial.
Using this mechanical component, he could collect various types of blood qi, mix them, process, and refine them to eventually form an oil-like substance with the texture of blood.
It paired even better with another mechanical component, the Blood Conversion Pool.
“Yuan Dasheng had already mastered the Demon-infused Bloodline Technique in his previous life and had a high cultivation level.”
“Giving him blood qi would be the greatest enhancement to his combat strength!”
If the Demon Sect were still visible, Ning Zhuo would never reveal this mechanical component.
But now, he had already sealed off the stone wall, deeply hiding both the Buddhist Sect and the Demon Sect. This meant that even if others entered the central hall, they had no way to access the paths to the Buddhist Sect or the Demon Sect, let alone claim related rewards.
Of course, the Blood Oil Bottle crafted by Ning Zhuo was not an exact replica but had been modified and altered by him, significantly reducing its power and changing its principles.
The reasons for this were that, on one hand, his materials were limited, and he couldn’t access some high-quality materials. On the other hand, even if this item was exposed in the future, with the Magma Fairy Palace revealing the Blood Oil Bottle, Ning Zhuo would have certain explanations and excuses to defend himself.
The Ning family’s cultivators guarded Ning Ze’s residence.
The Divine Sense of the Foundation Establishment Stage scanned the floating clouds and refrained from unnecessary probing.
They communicated telepathically, guessing what new mechanical creation Ning Zhuo was developing and why it needed such secrecy.
“Young Master Ning Zhuo has such a talent for mechanisms, his future is boundless.”
“Yes, it has been a long time since our family’s branch produced such an outstanding junior.”
“I am very curious about what new mechanical invention he is tinkering with now.”
“But with all these floating clouds in front of us, obstructing our view, it must be quite inconvenient for his creation, isn’t it?”
“Hehe, geniuses always have some oddities. Besides, we are well aware of Ning Zhuo’s life history. He has lived alone for too long; this cautiousness, this self-protection, is a very good habit!”
As Ning Zhuo’s performance became increasingly exceptional, the expectations and tolerance of those around him also grew.
Later that evening.
Yuan Dasheng, once again donned the Iron Han Armor, and proceeded through the sewer pipes.
He entered a specially constructed small path.
The path was dark and deep. After entering, Yuan Dasheng crawled along it, reaching the end.
He manipulated a simple mechanical lever, causing the stone brick to slide aside, revealing a small doorway.
The stone brick door opened halfway up an abandoned well.
Yuan Dasheng carefully inspected the surroundings, confirming safety, then crawled out of the well into an abandoned shantytown residence.
He left a Jade Slip in a corner of the shantytown house and then returned.
This was one of the secret communication channels between Ning Zhuo and Sun Lingtong.
Ning Zhuo secretly orchestrated everything, with the intention of notifying Sun Lingtong to recruit more Demon Cultivators and prepare to assassinate Yuan Er, putting on a good show.
The message in the Jade Slip was naturally encoded in a secret language created by Sun Lingtong and Ning Zhuo together.
Zheng Family.
Four Golden Core Ancestors were gathered.
One Golden Core Cultivator of the Zhou Family mentioned Zhou Zhu and Zhou Zeshen, his face filled with worry: “The Earthly Yin Ants’ lair contains Gu Insects, leaving behind Earthly Yin Energy that is difficult to expel. Once their bodies recover, the affliction remains like a disease, with long-term effects.”
“Both Zhou Zhu and Zhou Zeshen have exceptional talent. If the Earthly Yin Energy stays in their bodies for long, their yang nature will turn soft, their kidney water will be depleted, rendering them impotent and childless. In severe cases, their yang might turn into yin, resulting in neither yin nor yang.”
Zheng Shuanggou coldly snorted: “Even so, it is quite presumptuous for the two of you to forcefully take our family’s Nine Yang Ox Fat.”
Another Golden Core Cultivator from the Zhou Family bowed: “Considering our offspring, we as ancestors have no choice but to thicken our skin and beg.”
“I have a proposal,”
“In his youth, Zheng Shuanggou had always wanted to challenge my Night Star Silken Sky Formation.”
“How about my brother and I set up this formation, and let you two Daoists challenge it? If you are still trapped inside after three days and nights, please give us the Nine Yang Ox Fat.”
Zheng Shuanggou sneered: “And if we manage to escape?”
The Zhou Family Ancestor smiled: “Then my Zhou Family will gift you the Southern Vermilion Bird Constellation Array Map!”
Zheng Shuanggou was moved: “Really?”
Another Zhou Family Ancestor: “We can swear by the Dao.”
The two Golden Core Cultivators of the Zheng Family transmitted their discussion telepathically and nodded in agreement after a moment.
Immediately, the Zhou Family Ancestor drew out a silk brocade and spread it open.
The surface of the silk was smooth and intricate, like flowing water, black as the deep night. Amidst the deep ink color, the faintest hints of starlight appeared and disappeared.
The silk floated into the air, quickly merging with the night without a trace.
The four Golden Core Cultivators from the Zhou and Zheng Families all entered the formation and disappeared from sight.
Zhu Xuanji wandered among the mountains, continuously paying attention to the Wind Alarm Bell within his Divine Sea.
He explored around Fire Persimmon Immortal City, testing the surroundings.
“Who goes there?” Suddenly, Zhu Xuanji’s eyes shone with a golden light as he looked in a specific direction.
He only saw a shadowy figure, carrying a cold ghostly aura, quickly darting toward Fire Persimmon Immortal City.
“A Golden Core Cultivator! A Ghost Cultivator?”
Zhu Xuanji’s expression immediately turned serious.
To counter his Golden Eyes, the opponent certainly had an extraordinary background. Based on the mana fluctuations alone, he could tell that the cultivation technique’s quality was extremely high, likely from a major faction.
At the Persimmon Mountain Peak.
The roars of beasts were endless, magma surged violently.
Various demon beasts rioted, attempting to break out of the Flame Demon Melting Cave, but their path was blocked by the Magma Fairy Palace.
The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit roared continuously from its throne in the main hall.
The Immortal Palace Treasure Light radiated brightly, causing numerous mechanical puppets to awaken, forming a defense line.
This scene did not surprise Meng Kui.
“My Mountain Gaze covers the entire Fire Persimmon Mountain.”
“Naturally, the different demon beasts within the mountain are affected. The ones with weak fate are influenced first, those with moderate fate are caught up in the trend, and those with the strongest fate will also eventually be affected.”
Meng Kui sat amidst the clouds and smoke, in an invincible position, quietly observing the turbulent winds and clouds.
“I wonder if that Black Shadow Demon Cultivator will be involved and reveal himself now?”
At the black market.
Sun Lingtong had just returned to his yard when his eyes suddenly flashed with a cold gleam, and he shouted: “Who goes there?!”
Two Demon Cultivators in black appeared simultaneously, one in front and the other behind, looking very pleased with themselves.
“Sun Lingtong, you are already in the formation, surrender obediently!”
“In consideration of the Bukong Sect, if you reveal the whereabouts of the Youthful Guest, we will spare your life.”
Sun Lingtong’s face slightly tensed as he identified them from their mana aura: “You are from the Soul Devouring Sect?!”
“Spare him? Why would we!” Han Ming emerged from the shadows, resembling a malevolent ghost zombie, her face full of hatred and malice, “How dare you plot against me! Sun Lingtong, I want you dead!”
“And that Youthful Guest as well!”
“If you can inform on him, I’ll grant you a swift death.”
