Qingyunxian

Chapter 280: Twelve Yuanchen: Snake Fire

The bright pearl illuminated thousands of mountains and rivers, but after its brilliance disappeared, it became dim. Zou Jiao consumed half of his cultivation and cast a spell to severely injure Jian Yuan. It seemed that the cost was not high, but at the critical moment of ascending to immortality, wasting cultivation was a fatal matter.

Waves of green lightning continuously struck the injured body of the dragon.

There was also a strange flame hidden in the lightning, and that flame caused a trace of fear deep in Zou Jiao's blood.

It seemed as if the flame was born to restrain it!
The flames burned into the dragon's flesh, and the hard scales seemed to be nothing, unable to stop the flames at all.

Jian Yuan, who was biting the walking dragon, couldn't help but grin when he saw the calamity of immortality coming down with lightning and fire.

It's laughing!
Jianyuan, who was well versed in yin and yang, life and death, felt a strong breath of death from Zou Jiao.

This dragon will not survive!

The effect of the curse [Dark Throwing of the Pearl] ended, and Jianyuan's life was almost half gone, with only a few breaths left.

The flames stained the flesh and blood of the walking dragon, and were immortal. They first burned its cultivation and then its blood. So you can see that when the flames burned on the walking dragon at the beginning, they did not burn all its flesh and blood.

This flame seemed to have no interest in Jian Yuan. It only stayed on Zou Jiao, using his cultivation and bloodline as nourishment, and showed no signs of extinguishing.

As long as the walking dragon is not dead, the calamity of ascending to immortality will not end. Thunder and fire in the sky are steaming, gradually submerging the walking dragon.

As for Jian Yuan below, he was too close and was submerged in the lightning that was about to turn him into liquid. The broken tortoise shell could no longer protect him from the crisis.

"Ang!" Jian Yuan let go and roared, throwing the dying dragon off his back.

But how can a seriously injured body be faster than the calamity of ascending to immortality?

The sky was surging with blue, and the entire land and mountains were covered with lightning, like a bright sunny day, with blue gradually turning to white, and even the cloudy and rainy day could not cover up the dazzling lightning.

There is an unspoken rule in the wilderness that one should never get too close to others when they are going through the tribulation of becoming immortals.

In the distant Yuncheng, Liu Xun looked at the endless lightning with his eyes slightly narrowed.

Finally, the lightning stopped, and the area was filled with rain again. It was no longer possible to tell that there was a great evil being undergoing the tribulation of ascending to heaven.

Several magpies and other strange beasts flew to the place where Zou Jiao was undergoing his tribulation. This lasted for a cup of tea, and their connection with Liu Xun was not severed.

Liu Xun drove up the Cloud City and flew over the tribulation land in a moment.

Since those magpies are fine, it means that both Zou Jiao and Jian Yuan are dead.

If they were still alive, they would not allow other disaster beasts to hover over their heads.

Liu Xun looked down from Yuncheng and saw two huge corpses of disaster beasts lying on the ground.

The body of Jian Yuan was a broken tortoise shell and half of the bronze mirror collapsed. Even though it was dead, the cloud-patterned bronze mirror on its back still flowed with the inexplicable Yin-Yang rhythm. However, this Yin-Yang rhythm was constantly lost because the bronze mirror was broken.

It is estimated that within half a day, the cloud-patterned bronze mirror will lose its ability to judge life and death, and it is unknown how much of the yin and yang Taoist rhyme will remain in the end.

Liu Xun shook his head. It seemed that he would not be able to have a weapon as powerful as Jian Yuan in the short term.

If I were to use Yuan's blood essence to cultivate exotic beasts, it would take a long time to cultivate them to the Qingzun realm.

Exotic beasts grow slower than humans. Unless they are fed precious materials that contain the same Dao rhyme as them, they can only rely on their own bloodline to grow in order to reach true maturity.

This is also the case with many of the disaster beasts that Liu Xun has seen, all of which are not yet adults.

The same is true for Shanwei, Jianyuan and so on.

However, Liu Xun did not regret losing Jian Yuan, his trump card.

Because Jianyuan is difficult to control and is an unstable factor, it will wake up in the slightest accident, which would be a disaster for Liu Xun.

In addition, Liu Xun has deeper considerations.

Jianyuan and Deng Changsheng have an inexplicable connection. In his previous life, Deng Changsheng grew up relying on Jianyuan. With the ability to reset dreams, he became stronger and stronger in battles, and finally became a seventh-level dark cloud immortal.

Although Liu Xun has taken away Deng Changsheng's opportunity, the influence of Qi cannot be underestimated. Will Jian Yuan still affect Deng Changsheng's future?
Who knows, Jianyuan might wake up unexpectedly one day and accidentally reveal Deng Changsheng, a bigger trump card.

Once Deng Changsheng escapes, it will be difficult to catch him.

After weighing the pros and cons, Liu Xun borrowed the dragon to deal with the unstable factor of Jianyuan, extracted its essence and blood to create the Jianyuan beast himself. A beast that can be controlled is the most suitable.

He recalled the accident in the Goddess Cave. Jian Yuan might have been pulled by the Qi to save Guo Qingxue. Deng Changsheng might have been influenced by this.

Just imagine, if the awakened Jian Yuan could kill Liu Xun, and the Qianzhiyun City outside Wumiao collapsed, Deng Changsheng in Zhaoming Prison might have a chance to escape.

Liu Xun is used to preparing for the worst and is cautious to the core, so he naturally wants to eliminate these unexpected factors.

Liu Xun’s eyes left Jian Yuan’s body and looked at the corpse of the walking dragon again.

The body of the disaster beast that came to him to ask for a title was broken, and it was obvious that it was seriously injured by Jian Yuan's bite. In the end, it could not withstand the calamity of ascending to heaven and died.

There was still a layer of flames on the surface of the dragon's body, burning the surrounding rainwater and causing it to vaporize rapidly.

Liu Xun looked at the flame and a smile appeared on his face.

I wanted to get a new flame before, and now it’s here.

Liu Xun waved his hand lightly, and with the fire-controlling ability granted to him by Fuqinqianzhi, he attracted a wisp of flame from the corpse of the walking dragon, which slowly condensed into a fire in Liu Xun's palm.

The fire was bluish-white, and the aura it emitted was a bit stronger than that of the mandarin duck fire.

The Mandarin Duck Fire is a flame controlled by the disaster beast Bustard Yuanyang, while this blue-white fire originated from the calamity of ascending to immortality, so it is naturally more dangerous than the Mandarin Duck Fire.

Liu Xun only dared to take a tiny bit of the remaining flames from the Immortal Tribulation. If he took more, he was afraid that even the auspicious beast like the Thief of Thieves would not be able to suppress it.

Liu Xun originally thought that this was a kind of thunder fire, but after condensing into a fire, he put it into the soul palace and it fell into the Wuchao soul image and floated.

The blue-white fire manifested as a snake, reflected on the inner wall of the Crow's Nest, assisting the soul in inhaling and exhaling refined soul essence.

"So it's that kind of flame!" Liu Xun saw the strange snake reflected by the blue and white flame, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

The tribulation of ascending to immortality for each person or beast is different. Since the Middle Ages, some people have listed dozens of dangerous tribulations of ascending to immortality. Even if it cannot cover all types, it is enough for the immortals in heaven to know some of the situations of the tribulation of ascending to immortality.

There is a kind of calamity for ascending to immortality called the Twelve Yuan Chen Fire, which uses the images of the Twelve Yuan Chen to transform into fire, burning your cultivation and your blood. If you cannot survive it, the Twelve Yuan Chen Fire will burn you completely, without even a puff of ash left.

These twelve Yuanchen fires do not all appear at the same time. It all depends on your luck which ones appear.

If you have bad luck and all twelve of them fall at the same time, even Yunxian would shake his head and sigh, "Just wait to die."

If you are lucky, only a few types of Yuan Chen fire may fall.

Liu Xun didn’t know how many kinds of Yuan Chen fire this walking dragon had experienced. He only knew that the last wave of Yuan Chen fire was Si Snake Fire, which was the blue-white flame.

Jiao is a dragon or snake, so it makes sense to use Snake Fire as the ending.

Liu Xun looked at the corpse of Zou Jiao, and his eyes narrowed slightly as he thought of the request for a title before the reset.

The fact that this walking dragon was able to survive the twelve Yuanchen fires shows its extraordinary potential.

But after being seriously injured by Jian Yuan, he still didn't survive.

All his cultivation, flesh and blood became nourishment for the Snake Fire.

The Snake Fire was still burning, and Liu Xun did not hesitate. If he waited for the fire to continue burning, it would burn out all the blood and essence in the dragon's body, and then the blood and essence of the disaster beast would be wasted in vain.

Liu Xun ignited the newly acquired Snake Fire, and the blue-white flame wrapped around his wrist, moving like a snake.

He reached out towards the corpse of the walking dragon, but the snake fire burning around it met with similar flames and did not burn Liu Xun's arm.

The remaining essence and blood in the walking dragon's heart were successfully absorbed into the Huang Jing.
