Lord of Time: From a Five Elements Cultivator to a Master of All Daos

Chapter 355: Acquaintance, Transaction

"No, this Golden Flame Dragon is too powerful. My spiritual shield can't hold up."

After saying that, Cen Lianping pushed his hands hard and pushed the giant ochre-yellow shield in his hand up into the sky, smashing it towards the giant golden-red dragon hovering in the sky.

The giant dragon opened its mouth and spewed out golden-red dragon flames, burning the giant ochre shield in the blink of an eye.

The spiritual shield collapsed, and the Golden Flame Dragon looked down and found that the humans who had just offended him had disappeared.

With a sharp roar, invisible waves spread out in all directions, probing all suspicious places around.

A temporary stone chamber was formed in the soil layer under the control of Cen Lianping's magic power.

"This Golden Flame Dragon is too powerful. The three of us are no match for it. In my opinion, we should give up on this dragon and look for other targets," Cen Lianping said as he looked at the two people in front of him.

The people opposite were none other than Chu Haoming and Huang Shuya.

A thousand years later, Cen Lianping, relying on his leading advantage in cultivation, has successfully entered the realm of refining emptiness.

Huang Shuya also came from behind and successfully entered the realm of refining emptiness.

However, Chu Haoming, who was once a genius of Jiuzhou, is a little behind.

After failing to advance to the realm of Refining Void several times, not only was he injured, but his hope of advancing to the realm of Refining Void was almost completely gone.

He should have wasted his life and died, but after Jiuzhou merged with the demon world, the research on totem poles went a step further.

And achieved remarkable results: Psychic Tower.

This tower is connected to the rules of heaven and earth in the Nine Provinces, and serves as a substitute for the foundation of cultivators.

With the help of the Psychic Power Tower, many cultivators who had no hope of reaching the realm of refining emptiness now had the opportunity.

Although it has restrictions similar to those of the immortals in the upper realm, it is also a ray of hope for many cultivators.

In just a few hundred years, eleven psychic towers were built in Jiuzhou.

These are people carefully selected from within Kyushu.

The birth of eleven Void-Refining cultivators has greatly increased the strength within Jiuzhou.

This means that true Void-refining cultivators such as Cen Lianping and Huang Shuya no longer have to guard the territory of Jiuzhou, but can free up their hands to explore the demon world.

"No, if we don't defeat this Golden Flame Dragon, where can we find such suitable materials?" Huang Shuya shook her head and expressed her opposition to Cen Lianping's proposal.

The construction of a Psychic Tower is not easy. Not only does it require vast knowledge and resource support from within Jiuzhou, but it is also very demanding on the personnel that are matched with the Psychic Tower.

Chu Haoming finally passed the screening and became a member of the Psychic Tower's reserve force, but was told that there were very few resources left in Jiuzhou and he needed to find materials in the demon world on his own.

This was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for the latter, but fortunately he had the support of his former friends.

Cen Lianping and Huang Shuya, who had already advanced to the realm of refining emptiness on their own, decided to take him deep into the demon world to look for suitable materials.

This golden flame dragon was one of the targets found by the three people.

"Fellow Daoist Huang, why don't we listen to Fellow Daoist Cen and give up this Golden Flame Dragon."

Chu Haoming's face looked a little weathered, and he still had the pale look from having just been attacked by the Golden Flame Dragon.

"But……"

Huang Shuya wanted to say something more, but unexpectedly an invisible wave swept across the soil and swept across the place where the three people were.

"not good!"

Without thinking too much, Cen Lianping simply stuck his hands into the ground, and the immortal energy in his body was poured into the soil, and the soil layer on the walls of the stone chamber hardened completely.

Then the inside began to churn, and the entire stone chamber seemed to be lifted up by some huge object.

From the outside, a stone ball was caught by the dragon's claws and thrown high into the air, followed by a breath of golden-red dragon fire.

The stone ball shattered, and a red flame rose from inside, blocking the golden-red dragon flame outside.

It was Huang Shuya who used her spiritual power to resist.

Taking advantage of the moment of spiritual power and flame, the three of them took the opportunity to escape from Jin Yanlong.

But it was obvious that the dragon demon had no intention of letting the three people go. Seeing the three people escape, it immediately chased after them.

Sensing the breath of the dragon demon approaching from behind, Cen Lianping couldn't help but curse:
"What a powerful beast! Not only is it powerful in combat, but its escape speed is also not slow at all. I think it will be a short time before this dragon advances to the middle stage of the sixth stage."

During the previous fight, the three of them were completely suppressed, and this time they couldn't escape.

"Are there any reinforcements nearby?"

Huang Shuya shook her head:

"The compass is not responding."

Cen Lianping sighed:
"It seems that we can only rely on me."

As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly turned around and held up a huge ochre shield to block the oncoming golden and red rain of fire.

The three men fled, and the giant golden-red dragon chased them, crossing dozens of miles in the blink of an eye.

Then three figures were forced to fall into the forest.

It was not because the immortal energy in its body was exhausted, nor was it because it was seriously injured and forced to stop, but that this Golden Flame Dragon summoned a large number of its own kind at some point in time.

Dense swarms of golden-red dragon beasts covered the surrounding mountains.

It blocked out the sun, dyed the azure sky into gold and red, and also blocked the three people's retreat path.

Cen Lianping still wanted to evade the earth with the two of them, but once they entered the ground, they would be immediately attacked by the golden-red dragon. He had no choice but to escape from the soil and return to the ground.

Seeing the golden flame dragons gathering more and more, the three of them couldn't help but feel despair.

In the demon world, Wei Zhong looked at a large river flowing in front of him and nodded slowly.

This river is extremely wide, and even with Wei Zhong's Lianxu cultivation level, it took him several breaths to fly across it.

It's more like a vast lake with no end than a river.

The lake is turbulent and not calm, and from time to time you can see fish bigger than humans jumping out.

Various strange water beasts also appear.

Wei Zhong was not surprised that these monsters also had dragon blood in their bodies, but the level of concentration was different.

Following the river, Wei Zhong kept looking for the wood and water dragon beasts he needed.

As he went downstream, he did not find his target, but he discovered a golden and red sky not far from the river.

The sky was filled with dense golden and red dragon beasts, and a giant dragon was rolling in it. The dazzling dragon flames covered the sky and the sun, covering dozens of mountaintops.

"With all this commotion, could there be some rare treasure inside?"

Wei Zhong hesitated for a moment and decided to go and take a look first.

Anyway, it would be a long time before we could find a suitable dragon monster, so we might as well look for other rare spiritual creatures during this period of time.

Lightning flashed, and Wei Zhong came from nowhere.

Looking inside from the periphery of the golden-red sky, one finds that it is quite different from what one had guessed.

It’s not that dragons and monsters gather to guard rare treasures.

Instead, they formed a formation and attacked from inside.

His spiritual consciousness extended inside and he instantly saw an old acquaintance.

Wei Zhong couldn't help but let out a light exclamation.

At the same time, Cen Lianping and others who were struggling under the attack of the Golden Flame Dragon also discovered the existence of Wei Zhong in the outside world.

However, his aura was obscure and different from his previous alias "Xie Yuanping". The three could only barely identify him as a human, but they did not know his specific identity.

"Please help me, I will reward you handsomely later!"

Hearing the cry for help from the formation, Wei Zhong looked up at the dragon monster rolling in the golden red flames.

Most of them are only level four or five, and only one golden-red dragon is at the early level of level six.

"If you are not strong enough, you won't be able to use the [Time Dao Fa]."

Raising his right hand, two balls, one gold and one blue, appeared in Wei Zhong's hand. They were spirit beads made from gold and water spiritual materials respectively.

The power of the two beads was not much different, but the power contained in them was slightly different. Wei Zhong threw the two spirit beads high up, and then the spirit beads fell and smashed into the dragon monster wrapped in layers.

There were two loud explosions, and the spirit pearl shattered. The golden and blue spiritual light expanded, covering a large area of ​​golden and red sky.

It was like two clouds of heavenly calamity. In just a moment, it cleared out a large number of golden flame dragons, broke their formation, and injured the sixth-order dragon.

This gave Cen Lianping and others below a chance to escape.

The three of them seized the opportunity, escaped from the falling golden flame dragon rain, and came to Wei Zhong.

Seeing a familiar face, he immediately asked in confusion:

"Fellow Daoist Jie?"

Wei Zhong bowed slightly, with a smile on his face:
“That’s me.

"It's been a long time since we last met, Fellow Daoist Huang, Fellow Daoist Cen, and Fellow Daoist Chu!"

Cen Lianping and Huang Shuya had expressions of deep surprise on their faces.

Ever since Wei Zhong took away the "Five Methods of the Spring and Autumn Annals", he completely disappeared from Jiuzhou's sight, about a thousand years ago.

During such a long time, Wei Zhong had not appeared for a long time. Everyone thought that he had died in the refining calamity.

After all these years, Wei Zhong was almost completely forgotten.

Unexpectedly, when I went deep into the demon world to search for dragon demon materials, I would meet this person from another world again.

If the two of them had surprise in their eyes, then Chu Haoming's surprise was mixed with a hint of complexity.

He fell behind his peers, and in the past he could find some comfort from the disappeared "Xie Yuanping", but unexpectedly, this comfort disappeared without a trace.

The other party didn't die in the natural disaster. He was clearly alive and well, and even living a very comfortable life.

The attack just now easily resolved the crisis for the three people.

In just a moment after they met, the Golden Flame Dragon beside the four of them calmed down.

The group of dragon monsters is too dense, and the damage that two ordinary five-element spirit beads can cause is really limited.

The golden-red dragon circled in the sky, and all the wounds on its body healed under the flames. It lowered its head and looked at the four people floating below.

"It's a nice dragon beast, but unfortunately its attributes are not suitable."

Wei Zhong sighed secretly in his heart.

On the other side, Huang Shuya and others were facing a formidable enemy:
"Brother Jie, be careful. This beast is very powerful. Let's join forces to fight it."

Before he could finish his words, he saw Wei Zhong take out a golden thunder bead.

Chu Haoming only took a glance at the leaping electric arc on it, and his whole body tensed up, as if a disaster was about to happen.

Although Huang Shuya and Cen Lianping did not feel it so exaggeratedly, they also sensed the danger and subconsciously clenched the magic weapons in their hands.

If he hadn't known that "Xie Yuanping" was on his side, he would have turned around and fled long ago.

When the thunder ball appeared, the golden flame dragon seemed to have sensed something. It flapped its flaming wings and floated in the air, increasing the distance between itself and Wei Zhong.

"Why are you running? Can you get away?"

Wei Zhong raised his hand and flicked it. The lightning ball turned into a bolt of lightning and immediately rushed to the body of the golden flame dragon.

It was so fast that in the eyes of others it was just a moment.

Even though the Golden Flame Dragon had an extraordinary speed, it could not escape the pursuit of the Thunder Bead.

He could only stretch out his sharp claws, which were covered with dragon flames, and try to break the lightning ball.

Unfortunately, before it could touch the thunder ball, the golden thunder ball shattered on its own.

There was a loud bang.

A large amount of golden thunder and lightning, like a storm, covered the sixth-level dragon and the area within several miles around it.

The other low-level Golden Flame Dragons felt the power of thunder and lightning and retreated according to their instinct, forming a vacuum zone of at least ten miles.

The three people from Jiuzhou were stunned when they saw such terrifying power.

"Friend Jie, what is this?"

Wei Zhong waved his hand:

"It's just a little gadget I made. One lightning bead is as powerful as a strike from a mid-stage Void Refining cultivator. What do you think?"

It seemed as if he was inviting three people to taste it, but what they were greeted with was a long silence.

The thunderstorm dissipated, and a giant dragon fell from mid-air, smashing the mountaintop and leaving deep gullies on the ground.

The latter's dragon body is embedded in it.

The four people stepped forward and were surprised to find that even after facing such a brutal frontal attack, the Golden Flame Dragon was not dead and still had a breath left.

The golden-red flame on his body never went out, but continued to spread towards the place where he was injured, repairing the damage.

Unfortunately, the dragon was too badly injured and the flames could not repair it quickly enough.

"It's not dead yet, could it be that it still has some Phoenix bloodline?"

Wei Zhong muttered something and was about to step forward to solve the problem completely.

Unexpectedly, he was stopped by three people around him and turned around in confusion.

Cen Lianping bowed to Wei Zhong and said:
“To be honest with you, this dragon is the hunting target we carefully selected.

"Unexpectedly, the three of us were weak and nearly died at the hands of this beast. Thanks to the help of fellow Taoists, we were able to turn danger into safety.

“The three of us should have expressed our gratitude with courtesy and respectfully sent this dragon to you, fellow Taoist.

"but……

"This dragon involves the life and death of Brother Chu, I wonder if Brother Jie can give it to the three of us.

"The three of us will never take it for nothing, it's just..."

Cen Lianping and the other two were short of money, and for a moment they didn't know what to use to exchange for the giant dragon.

Not to mention the dragon, even the life-saving grace should not be repaid.

It feels a bit ungrateful to say such words.

He looked embarrassed and mumbled for a long time but couldn't say the next words.

Wei Zhong looked at the embarrassed expressions of the three people, then turned back to look at the giant golden-red dragon.

After a moment's thought, he answered:

"Yes, if you three need this dragon, feel free to take it."

Such an answer not only made the three of them overjoyed.

"Such a great favor, I don't know how to repay you..."

The three of them bowed and saluted.

Wei Zhong laughed secretly in his heart.

There are so many secrets in Jiuzhou, like a layer of fog covering Wei Zhong that he cannot see clearly.

Not only does it inherit the "Five Laws of the Spring and Autumn Period", but its world rules are also extremely special, and the laws are obvious, which echoes the "Record of Time" in Wei Zhong's hand.

All these things made Wei Zhong curious, and he also had ideas about other methods of inheritance within the sect.

"I wonder how many methods this dragon could possibly exchange for in Jiuzhou?"

The three of them looked at each other, and considering that this dragon monster was involved in the twelfth psychic tower in Jiuzhou, they immediately estimated the importance of the latter.

"Don't worry, Brother Jie, it will definitely work."

Hearing this, Wei Zhong was satisfied.

Seeing the three people dealing with the dragon monster, Wei Zhong asked about his goal:
"Have you ever seen a sixth-level dragon monster with wood and water attributes?"
