Chapter 164 Eating Demons, Sand Lizard
Cola Novels always has a story waiting for you to open.
On a flying boat over the desert.
In the midst of a sandstorm and raging winds, the flying boat is in a large cabin at the very top.
A Foundation Establishment stage demon cultivator with a bear's head and a human body was sitting cross-legged on a thick carpet. Even while sitting, he was still nine feet tall, his imposing figure resembling a small mountain.
In front of him was a stone table nearly ten feet wide, on which were piles of pork ribs and meat chunks, each one steaming hot and emitting an extremely fragrant aroma of braised meat.
Click!
This yellow-haired bear demon, in the early stages of Foundation Establishment, picked up large pieces of braised pork ribs, put them in his mouth, and swallowed the bones clean.
In the open space in front of him were four huge iron cages, each containing the figure of a fully-formed demon beast.
The demon cultivators stared in terror at the bear demon devouring the meat, fully aware of their impending doom.
Having fallen into the hands of a Foundation Establishment stage demon cultivator, they are doomed to die without a chance of survival.
"Ancestor."
"Could you give the little ones a piece of meat to eat?"
"This deer demon with second-tier bloodline aptitude must be delicious."
at this time.
On one side of the bear demon was a black-haired bear demon with a very obvious white cross-shaped mark on its chest. This bear demon was now looking greedily at the deer demon in the iron cage in front of it, which had a wound on its abdomen.
The bloody smell emanating from this deer demon was enough to arouse an extremely strong desire to devour it; the smell emanating from this deer demon was too strong.
Upon hearing what the black-haired bear demon said, the other bear demon cubs in the cabin, who were at the late stage of Qi Refining, also lit up.
They really wanted to eat it too.
"Hahaha!"
"good!"
"After I finish eating, I will definitely reward you with a few bones to try."
The yellow-haired bear demon, whose body was as large as a small mountain, spoke with a chuckle.
The cross-border airship business between Yunzhou and Shazhou has been doing very well recently, showing a huge improvement compared to before.
Business was several times better, and the number of cultivators wanting to travel from Yunzhou to Shazhou was slowly increasing each time.
The main reason is that the Yunzhou region has become quite chaotic, and the fusion of the Fallen Immortal Valley ruins has also led many cultivators to Yunzhou.
But it was precisely because of this that Yunzhou became extremely chaotic, and the number of treacherous cultivators began to soar rapidly.
Many monks fled from Yunzhou to Shazhou to escape the disaster.
"Long live the Ancestor!"
The bear cubs around them began to get excited.
Upon seeing the appearance of the bear demons around them, the four demon cultivators inside the iron cages all huddled up, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.
But at that moment...
Suddenly.
The yellow-haired bear demon holding braised pork ribs suddenly froze in place, its huge, bell-like eyes filled with terror.
The same was true of the Qi-refining bear demons in the surrounding cabins; they were all petrified.
A divine sense, almost tangible, enveloped them.
In an instant, a young cultivator dressed in white robes walked out of the cabin door, accompanied by a girl dressed in white. The two walked in step by step, as if they were in an empty place.
Second-tier bloodline.
"There's also a mutated one."
At this moment, Lin Li's divine sense swept over the demon cultivators in the four large iron cages in front of him. A flash of red and blue light passed through his eyes, and he saw through the innate talents of these demon cultivators in the iron cages at a glance.
One of them was a deer demon with two tails that looked like blue glass, swaying in the air and emitting a faint, exotic fragrance.
Lin Li walked past the iron cages, raised his hand and extracted a wisp of blood energy from the demon cultivators, refining it all into his body.
[Inclusion successful]
[Second-tier, mid-level bloodline (mutated), Azure Blood Deer!]
[Inclusion successful]
[Second-tier, lower-grade bloodline; Azure-eyed Spirit Cat!]
[Inclusion successful]
[Second-tier, lower-grade bloodline...]
In the blink of an eye, four bloodline figures appeared on the Reincarnation Disc in Lin Li's sea of consciousness: a deer, a cat, a tiger, and a wolf. After appearing, these figures flew down to one side of the Reincarnation Disc.
Simultaneously.
Inside the cabin, the fierce-looking Qi-refining bear demons all had a deep look of fear in their eyes.
But the next moment, before the early Foundation Establishment bear demon in front could say anything, Bai Ling'er on the side slightly opened her mouth, and a vortex of extremely strong devouring force came out from it.
That power enveloped the early Foundation Establishment stage bear demon in front of him and swallowed it whole in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, the surrounding Qi-refining bear demons exploded one after another, automatically condensing into blood pills on the spot, which Bai Ling'er also swallowed.
They will all be refined into blood pills in a very short time.
In the blink of an eye, only a few breaths had passed.
A dark gray jade bead appeared on Bai Ling'er's right hand. Inside the jade bead was the remnant soul of a bear demon in the early stage of Foundation Establishment. The remnant soul bounced around in the jade bead.
It seemed to want to escape from the jade bead.
"Tell me everything you know about Thousand Shadows Pavilion."
Bai Ling'er looked at the remnant soul in the jade bead in her palm, and then hurriedly spoke.
"Please, senior, spare my remaining soul and life. I will tell you everything I know."
The remnant soul of the bear demon hurriedly spoke, its tone full of pleading for mercy.
immediately.
The remnant soul of the bear demon then began to recount everything he knew about the Thousand Shadow Tower in one breath, down to the smallest detail.
for a long time.
After the bear demon's remnant soul finished speaking, Bai Ling'er gently raised her hand and crushed the remnant soul jade bead into powder in the blink of an eye. The powder turned into a wisp of black smoke and entered Bai Ling'er's body, transforming into resources for her cultivation.
Lin Li also learned more about Qianyinglou. This early Foundation Establishment stage bear demon was a Foundation Establishment guest elder of the Qianlang Chamber of Commerce in Giant Shadow City. Their Chamber of Commerce's Qianlang Zhenren was a late Foundation Establishment stage human cultivator.
The other party was an elder of the Thousand Shadows Pavilion. It was precisely because of this identity that the Thousand Waves Chamber of Commerce was able to make a great success of its interstate airship business in Giant Shadow City.
According to the bear demon, the current leader of the Thousand Shadows Pavilion, a demon clan member at the Core Formation stage, rose to prominence suddenly within the sect.
At first, the other party was just a guest elder in the Thousand Shadows Pavilion, just like the bear demon. But not long after, the other party actually used the third-order spiritual vein in Giant Shadow City to advance to the Core Formation stage in one fell swoop.
Furthermore, it is suspected that it has achieved the quality of a true elixir.
There is a possibility of advancement and breakthrough even in the Nascent Soul stage in the future.
This is why the newly appointed sect leader of Thousand Shadows Pavilion is highly regarded among the surrounding Core Formation forces.
A Core Formation cultivator with True Core aptitude is far stronger than several with Gray Core aptitude. After all, most Core Formation cultivators are only able to achieve nothing in the early stages of Core Formation and cannot make any progress.
True Core Formation Aptitude.
"Is this Akame's backup plan?"
"That old fellow only considered him as one of the options back then, while the Crimson-Eyed old man must have already noticed the exceptionally talented disciple puppet that Thousand Shadows Pavilion had put forward."
"That's exactly why the newly appointed leader of the Thousand Shadows Pavilion seems to be a turtle demon!"
Not only is his lifespan exceptionally long, but his bloodline also seems to contain the blood of a dragon.
"That turtle demon really knows how to pick a consort; it chose a demon bloodline with a long lifespan."
A thoughtful look appeared in Lin Li's eyes.
Judging from what we learned from this Foundation Establishment bear demon, it can be basically concluded that the newly promoted Core Formation Sect Master of Thousand Shadows Tower is none other than the one with the red eyes from back then.
No wonder his four hundred years of lifespan was only a candidate. It wasn't just because of his bloodline and aptitude; even his own lifespan was far shorter than that of a tortoise demon.
...
...
at the same time.
In front of the airship.
Dozens of miles away.
On a vast expanse of sand, in a stretch of Gobi Desert that extends for more than ten miles.
Among the rocks of the Gobi Desert, many shrubs of varying sizes and shades of bluish-gray grow, displaying a tenacious vitality everywhere.
In the Gobi Desert.
Inside a stone cave dozens of feet underground.
"The flying boat is coming soon."
"Big brother, are we really going to do it?"
"This interstate airship belongs to the Thousand Waves Merchant Guild in Giant Shadow City. If we were to attack this airship, we brothers would likely be wanted by the Thousand Shadows Pavilion."
"It would be terrible if a bounty were put on my head."
"What's there to be afraid of!"
"Now, Qianyinglou is no longer the only dominant force in this area."
"The two elders of the White Sand Sect have been nearby for a while. You should know that the White Sand Sect is a powerful force with two Core Formation cultivators. The Thousand Shadows Pavilion used to have three Core Formation cultivators, but now it only has one Core Formation cultivator."
"The reason why Qianyinglou is able to maintain such a large venue now is only due to the residual influence from before."
"If Bai Shamen arrives, he'll definitely just lie down on the spot."
"Nowadays, Thousand Shadows Tower certainly won't antagonize the White Sand Gate; they'll definitely tolerate it and give up some of the territory they've taken over."
"We're taking advantage of the chaos right now. Even if Thousand Shadows Tower investigates and tries to take action against us, we can simply join the White Sand Sect."
"Anyway, after we finish this job, we'll have accumulated quite a few spirit stones, which will make our cultivation much smoother in the future."
"One of the Core Formation stage elders in the White Sand Sect is from our Lizard Clan."
"That's why the White Sand Gate doesn't make things difficult for our Sand Lizard clan. They even extended an olive branch last time. This time, this favor is just to add to our already splendid situation."
In this underground cave, one of the largest sand lizard demons sat on a stone chair, looking at his second brother, who was slightly smaller than him, with a chilling glint in his cold vertical pupils.
"Brother, you are absolutely right."
"Adding flowers to brocade."
"How arrogant Qianyinglou was before, with so many Foundation Establishment forces around them being their vassals."
"With the reputation of having three Core Formation experts from one family, the other Core Formation forces in the surrounding area have all cowered and dared not move."
"But now, things are going downhill."
On one side was a figure dressed as a scholar in white, with only his eyes being a lizard-like green, and his tone of voice was quite refined.
at this time.
The third brother, who was the most timid, was a sand lizard in the early stage of Foundation Establishment. The reason he broke through was because he accidentally ate a top-tier second-order precious medicine underground. With the help of the power in the medicine, he soared from the Qi Refining stage to the early stage of Foundation Establishment.
The promotions he gained by finding treasures lacked a lot of practical experience.
Therefore, among the three Sand Lizard brothers in the Foundation Establishment stage, he was the most immature in temperament.
The third brother glanced at the eldest and second eldest of the three brothers and then fell silent. Since the two of them had already said they were going to attack the flying boat, there was no point in him trying to stop them.
The minority must submit to the majority.
"Let's get started."
"The airship will be here soon. We have already contacted a late-stage Qi Refining human spy we planted on board."
"The one in charge of the flying boat this time is that yellow-skinned bear demon."
"That bear demon is just a demon cultivator in the early stage of Foundation Establishment. If we just scare him a little, he might abandon the flying boat and flee."
"Decisive victory as quickly as possible."
"This area is still under the jurisdiction of Qianyinglou. If anything happens, Qianyinglou can still arrive here as quickly as possible."
The words were spoken.
The leader of the three sand lizards transformed into a yellow streak of light and plunged into the rock wall above, as if diving into the water, leaving only a faint yellow ripple on the rock wall.
The second and third brothers behind them exchanged a glance and then used their earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of magic or technique) to fly upwards, closely following their leader.
In the blink of an eye.
They flew from dozens of feet underground to the sky, where the lizard demon leader, with a huge yellow sand lizard head, opened his mouth and a yellow flag several inches in size flew out.
A pair of blue wings were engraved on the flag.
After being infused with demonic energy, the Azure Winged Spirit Banner immediately began to whip up gusts of wind, while gusts of sand, like yellow mist, poured out from the banner.
The yellow sand covered the sky for miles around, making it impossible for people more than ten miles away to see any figures in the sand.
The wind and sand swirled up.
The bushes among the rock strata on the Gobi Desert were also quickly uprooted and spun wildly in the air, only to be pulverized into dust in a few short moments.
"Big brother, the flying boat is here!"
The second-in-command among the sand lizard cultivators spoke with great excitement.
The third brother, who was hiding at the very back, felt a persistent sense of panic when he saw the flying boat coming straight at him.
