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

Chapter 392: Deep into the Demonic Land
"Brother Wu Se, this is the Earth Marrow that we have collected."

Wei Zhong took the storage bag from Liu Ruochen, and peered inside with his spiritual sense, and saw that there were eight earth marrow cores inside.

'As expected of the largest local chamber of commerce, it spends more than any other forces.

"Four top-grade, two low-grade and two mid-grade. Not bad, but..."

"Is this seventh-level Earth Marrow Core so hard to find?"

Liu Ruochen sighed upon hearing this:
“To be honest, most of these seventh-level earth marrow cores are associated with seventh-level spirit veins.

“However, there are not many seventh-level spirit veins in my Chong’an Spiritual Region, and most of them are located in the core areas of major Hedao sects. How could they allow us to collect them?
"The seventh-level spiritual vein of our association is not a big deal, but the spiritual vein was just adjusted a hundred years ago. It is not easy to go deep into it to collect this thing, otherwise it will easily cause spiritual energy chaos..."

In short, there are no resources.

The nature of the earth's marrow core and spiritual veins coexisting together does make the latter extremely easy to find, but because most of the seventh-level spiritual veins are occupied by major sects, their mining is restricted.

Regardless of whether what Liu Ruochen said about adjusting the spiritual veins was true or false, Wei Zhong should not ask rashly.

I could only bow politely and thank the other party:

"I still have to thank you, Brother Liu!"

The other party returns the gift:

"Fellow Daoist Wu Se is very open about business, which is what we want. There is no need to be polite in exchanging interests."

Wei Zhong said goodbye and left. At this time, there were already twelve Earth Marrow Cores in his storage bag, eight from the Fengxi Society, and four from other local forces.

If it is refined completely, plus the five that are refined this time, there will be seventeen formation flags.

It’s a pity that all of them are only level six.

Without finding the seventh-level earth marrow core, Wei Zhong had no way to refine the seventh-level formation flag.

"Seventh-level spiritual materials are hard to come by, and this earth marrow is the best."

Wei Zhong shook his head, looking helpless.

'Now, of the next set of eighteen battle flags, only this one is missing. What a pity!'

He didn't believe it and asked around in the Mingyuan Market, but couldn't find any information about the Earth's Marrow.

It is even more difficult to find this item outside of these Hedao sects.

He had no choice but to return to the Chiyang Boat and wait for the day to return to the sect to look for clues from within the Five Elements Immortal Sect.

'Or, look for this thing in the demon world?'

Wei Zhong seemed to be in deep thought as he stepped into the boat. Just then a beam of light flew past from high in the sky.

He concealed his body, glanced at the two spirit boats in the sky, then turned around and went deep into the abyss below.

After a while, he appeared outside the cave developed by the Five Elements Immortal Sect on the sixth floor.

As soon as he arrived, Yang Jing sensed the presence of the visitor and quickly took the other person inside.

It was not until he stepped into the treasure house containing the Yueming Pool that he took off his disguise and revealed the appearance of a middle-aged man.

Yang Jing quickly greeted him:

"Senior Brother Yun!"

Other members of the Hedao sect, such as Wang Xiangling, Yue Mingyu and others, also hurried forward to pay their respects.

Yun Fengyao waved his hand:
"I would also like to thank all my fellow disciples for being able to find the trace of Taiyin Yuehua in this abyss."

Yang Jing shook his head:
"Brother Yun, don't be too happy too soon, this is just speculation.

"Brother, why don't you go to the lower level and investigate?"

After saying that, Yang Jing pointed to the huge cave next to the cave.

The place was filled with dense yin energy, which continuously erupted outwards, blocking the light and making it look like a netherworld hell.

"This is the entrance to the seventh floor. It is currently blocked by us. The news of the entrance has not been leaked. Senior Brother Yun will not encounter any other cultivators fighting for it."

Turning to look at Yun Fengyao who was alone:
"Brother, do you need me to accompany you?"

The latter shook his head slowly:
"No need, if you disappear, it might arouse suspicion from others.

"Why don't you just stay here and ask for help when I need you."

Yang Jing nodded and clasped his hands:

"Then I wish Brother to pick the Taiyin Moonlight."

Yun Fengyao returned the greeting, turned around, and transformed into a beam of red light and disappeared into the entrance of the abyss where yin energy was gushing out.

The remaining few people looked at each other.

"I wonder if Senior Brother Yun can handle this seventh floor alone?" Zhuang Chengze looked worried.

Yang Jing seemed full of confidence:
"Don't worry, Brother is not a reckless person. If he really needs our help, he will naturally tell us.

"We have to cover up this place well and not let the news leak out."

Wang Xiangling added:

"Brother Yang, don't worry. The formation we set up is very dense. We can't see any trace of those peeping cultivators outside."

"The mere refining of the Void is not worth mentioning, but have you found any traces of other Hedao?"

Yue Mingyu shook his head:
“Not yet. These local tyrants know the rules very well and have no intention of sending Hedao to deal with the situation, for fear of angering us.

"Including the Purple Qi Palace, who even came to apologize for the spiritual key incident..."

"Don't be careless. When you reach the level of He Dao, you will do anything for the sake of your future immortal path.

"Since Senior Brother Yun has gone deep into the seventh floor alone, we must eliminate the trouble for him.

"In the remaining time, we will take turns patrolling the area around the cave and make sure to eliminate all dangers."

After hearing Yang Jing's solemn words, the others all echoed:
"Yes!"

Just as the Five Elements Immortal Sect and others were planning to seize the resources in the lower level of the Nether Abyss.

In the demon world, Wei Zhong's demon dragon, Zhukong, has already set out with a group of demon dragons and spiritual creatures.

Wei Zhong concealed his breath and disguised himself as a half-human, half-dragon to blend into the team.

Since I can’t find the core of the earth in the spirit world, I have no choice but to try my luck in the demon world.

The closest to Wei Zhong is naturally the seventh-level spiritual vein under the ground of the Liekong tribe.

Wei Zhong holds the Fuling Qiankun Formation in his hand. Its ability to move and change spiritual veins is enough for Wei Zhong to find the traces of underground spiritual veins.

They even avoid the eyes and ears of others and go deep into the underground spiritual veins to search for the marrow of the earth.

Of course, it is impossible to completely conceal the truth from others, and there are still certain risks.

Wei Zhong took out the Wind-Fixing Pearl that he got from Yang Jing.

This bead is of the sixth-grade top quality, enough to help Wei Zhong deal with the Sky-Splitting Dragon below the seventh grade.

But there is no way for those above level seven.

You still have to rely on [The Way of Time].

However, Wei Zhong tried to avoid conflict, thinking that saving more life was better.

After all, between a thousand years of life and a core of earth marrow, it is obvious which one is more precious.

Even if Wei Zhong had the ability to "exchange his life with Kryptonian-level money", it would still take a long time to make up for his thousand years of life.

It is better to reduce the delays in cultivation progress.

"Of course, if there are other gains, that's another story."

He looked back at the team from the Wind Hunting Tribe.

There is only one sixth-level demon dragon, Zhukong, leading the team, and the others are fifth-level or lower demon dragons.

The spiritual objects he brought with him were two mass-produced spiritual herbs picked from Wei Zhong's spiritual medicine garden. They were not rare and were just enough to pay for the heavy taxes imposed by the Liekong tribe. 'Before causing unrest, I have to leave the Liefeng tribe and not let them get involved, exposing my spiritual medicine garden to the sight of this seventh-level tribe.'

While thinking, as the team moved forward, Wei Zhong and others were getting farther and farther away from the Liefeng Tribe.

There were other teams around.

Zhu Kong carefully told Wei Zhong, who was hiding his identity behind him, the information about these people.

"The team with the fewest demon dragons in front is called Crazy Demons. They don't have a fixed spiritual place, but make a living by robbing others...

"There are very few demon dragons in the tribe, consisting of only three sixth-level demon dragons and some fifth-level demon dragons. The leader of this trip is the second oldest in the tribe, Fatian, who has a sixth-level mid-level cultivation base.

"But he is one of the rare guys who has activated his bloodline. He has a chance to perform teleportation techniques that only his own clan can use. Although I only heard that he used it once when he was escaping, his strength should not be underestimated."

Wei Zhong looked at the team ahead and suddenly had an idea in his mind:
'Isn't it that making a living by plundering is just right for what I am about to do?'

After whispering a few words into Zhukong's ear, Wei Zhong turned around and left the team, disappearing into the jungle.

Following the footsteps of the crazy team, they kept getting closer.

Following behind the team, Wei Zhong frowned and couldn't help but block the perception of his nose.

"Is it possible that the Kuangsha tribe has no custom of cleaning the body? The smell on this body is really pungent."

Wei Zhong had no idea that it was not that this tribe did not want to take a bath, but that the other party had just robbed a small force, so they hurried over to participate in the "gathering" of the Liekong tribe.

Before it had even had time to clean itself, a large amount of dragon blood and various filth mixed together continued to ferment in this humid jungle, forming an indescribable pungent smell.

This smell cannot be blocked by blocking the sense of smell. It is wrapped in spiritual energy and keeps rushing into people's pores.

Wei Zhong endured the discomfort and caught up with the tail of the team.

Taking advantage of the opportunity when one of the demon dragons was alone, he directly used the true seal to control it.

A moment later, a green ring was stuffed into the flesh and blood of the demon dragon.

It was the spiritual ring obtained from Luo Jia.

The other party used this ring to hide himself and sneak into the secret place of Longzang to steal the treasure.

Wei Zhong is now using the same method to infiltrate the seventh-level Likong Tribe and search for spiritual objects.

And the advantage is that the aura of this spiritual ring is consistent with the dragon itself, so it is not easy to be discovered.

Even if those seventh-level demon dragons saw the existence of this ring, they would probably think that it was the demon dragon's own storage ring and would not have any thoughts about others hidden in it.

The team flew along the mountains and after a while, they found a lake.

There are a large number of monsters drinking water by the lake.

The leader, Fakong, raised his head and shouted, and the team behind him immediately plunged into the lake like falling rockets.

He swayed in the cool lake water, and then jumped out of the lake.

Repeat this process once or twice and all the filth on your body will be washed away.

These dragons were happy, but the other monsters by the lake were frightened by the noise and fled away.

Some of them didn't even have time to escape before they were picked up by the Sky-Splitting Dragon by the lake, who tore them apart and turned them into bloody food.

"As expected of a monster tribe, they are quite barbaric."

Wei Zhong sat upright inside the spirit ring, looking at everything outside calmly.

"The dragon-like monsters in this demon world are simply uncivilized. They are completely different from the monsters in the spirit world."

The northern demon dragons that Wei Zhong heard about from Luo Jia were already a race that was very familiar to human cultivators.

Apart from the difference in race, everything else is almost the same.

He also made elixirs and weapons, and delved into various spiritual practices.

The tribe even has various schools opened according to the blood concentration in different dragon species, which are the subsequent magic halls.

The entire northern tribe has grown in an orderly manner. How can they be compared to the dragons in this demon world?
"Could it be that the Northern Territory Demon Dragon has undergone such a transformation because it has been oppressed too harshly by our human race?"

After thinking for a long time, Wei Zhong seemed to think that this statement was reasonable.

In the demon world, dragon blood is respected. Everything in the sky, on the ground, swimming in the water, and running on the ground, all have dragon blood in their bodies.

Such a special area is ruled by the demon dragon clan. Even if there are fights and attacks, they are just struggles within the demon dragon clan and among various sub-dragons, and are nothing at all.

Where would the motivation for reform come from if there is no threat of genocide?

Wei Zhong shook his head slowly:

“What a chaotic world.”

"The human race of Jiuzhou will teach you a lesson sooner or later."

With mixed thoughts in their minds, the Kuangsha tribe flew for days and finally approached the border where the Liekong tribe was located after a few days.

The groups of demon dragons patrolling in the sky circled one after another, glancing at these guys from the "countryside" with disdain.

There are also differences between the evil dragons.

Moving downward, one can see rising clouds and continuous high mountains in the distance. Apart from the fact that there are more densely packed evil dragons, the mountains do not seem to be much different from ordinary mountains.

'It's not even as beautiful as the Windhunters.'

Wei Zhong complained and then lowered his eyes.

There are already many tribes gathered here below.

The tribes gathered in various places, waiting for inspection from the front.

That was the sixth-rank demon dragon of the Liekong tribe, who was counting the tribute lists of these tribes in front of the spiritual land.

Only after paying favors can you enter this sacred land.

The Crazy Demon Tribe fell as a result.

As soon as he landed, Wei Zhong heard a burst of noise in front of him:

"Two spiritual herbs, you're sending beggars away? Do you look down on my Liekong tribe?"

"Impossible. I clearly agreed with the messenger that it would be two plants. How could the price go up?"

Staring at the request for three sixth-level spiritual plants on the gift list, the tribal leader almost fainted.

The strength of their tribe is not strong, and there are very few spiritual objects inside, so they want to reduce the spiritual tax by making arrangements.

Unexpectedly, after paying so many good things, all I got were still three spiritual plants.

"No?"

The demon dragon from the Liekong tribe spoke in a bad tone, seeing that the team had spent all their assets but still could not afford the value of a sixth-level spiritual object.

With a sneer, he raised his hand and a hurricane came out. His figure flashed and sank into the hurricane, and reappeared in the blink of an eye.

He had already picked up a demon dragon's inner elixir in his hand.

There was still flesh and skin connected to the green inner elixir, which was just dug out from the dragon's body.

"Liufeng Tribe, two sixth-level spiritual ginsengs and one sixth-level demon pill as tribute!"

The voice was high-pitched and could be heard for dozens of miles.

The members of the Demon Dragon Tribe who witnessed this development in the rear all looked grim.

Just at this moment the hurricane dissipated, revealing the figure of the Liufeng tribe.

There was a bloody hole on the leader's chest, and blood was gushing out, and he was dying.

The demon dragon of the same species behind him turned red when he saw this, but the old dragon shook his wings, signaling not to be impulsive.

He turned around, flapped his wings to the demon dragon holding his demon pill, and left with the tribal team.

Wei Zhong saw that many demon dragons were secretly following this team, and he couldn't help but sigh:
"The strong prey on the weak, to the fullest!"
