Chapter Fifty-Five: The Snow Illusion Golden Eagle's Phantom Clone Technique

"You are not getting away!"

The arrogant voice of the Ninth-Order Demon King Cangming Blood King Eagle rang out again, making Xiao Xuanyuan's face even uglier!

"Damn it, this guy is pushing his luck and acting like a liar!"

Xiao Xuanyuan was so furious he felt like his lungs were about to explode!

However, he dared not turn around and could only desperately accelerate the absorption of the metal energy from the eight or nine metal magic cores in his palms.

There was no better way, because due to his excessive use of the Golden Cicada Concealment Heaven-rank movement technique, the metal meridians in his body were melting and breaking inch by inch under the scorching heat.

If we speed it up any further, it would probably be completely useless right now!

Even the best sports car will explode and break down on the spot if you repeatedly exceed its limits!

Finally, under the agonizing shadow of death, Xiao Xuanyuan felt as if every second was an eternity. The sound of death approaching step by step stretched his tense nerves to the limit.

"Netherworld Blood Rainbow Technique!"

The shadow of death instantly loomed over Xiao Xuanyuan's heart. His instinctive reaction was to lunge forward and push the Golden Cicada Concealment technique beyond its limits. However, a metal meridian in his body, which had been partially melted, could not withstand the powerful impact and broke off completely!

At the same time, an even more intense and sharp pain surged through Xiao Xuanyuan's nerves, causing him to react a beat slower. Moreover, although the Golden Cicada Divine Concealment had only severed one meridian, it had slightly increased his internal energy, so he was currently unable to dodge in time.

Having learned from the lessons of the previous two brief encounters, the Ninth-Order Demon King Cangming Blood King Eagle no longer underestimated Xiao Xuanyuan. He went all out from the start. The surging, blood-red rainbow pillar, dozens of feet wide, descended from above, tearing through the endless paper lake space and penetrating the depths of the endless void. Finally, it struck Xiao Xuanyuan directly!

Boom!

Without any hindrance, Xiao Xuanyuan was swept away by the violent and terrifying energy beneath this blood-red rainbow pillar, his body shattering inch by inch, turning into countless dust particles in the blink of an eye.

"Haha, I told you, none of you can escape my grasp!"

Upon seeing Xiao Xuanyuan completely vanish beneath the crimson rainbow pillar, the ninth-tier demon king, Cangming Blood King Eagle, opened his mouth and laughed, emitting the sinister laughter of an old man.

Before he could finish laughing, suddenly a figure of Xiao Xuanyuan appeared in front of him, then multiplied into two, and then into four!

Four identical Xiao Xuanyuans scattered and fled in four different directions!

"How come he's still alive?!"

For a moment, the ninth-tier demon king, Cangming Blood King Eagle, was stunned. Wasn't this guy just killed by his "Netherworld Blood Rainbow Technique"? How come another one suddenly appeared, and then one multiplied into two, and two into four, with four figures at the same time?

A moment later, the ninth-tier demon king, Cangming Blood King Eagle, understood that this was a clone illusion technique, used to confuse the opponent's senses and for escaping.

Once upon a time, he fought against a magical beast of similar strength. After a fierce battle, he barely managed to defeat it by a single move.

Just as he was about to deliver the killing blow, his opponent used a similar illusion technique to escape. However, the ninth-tier demon king, Cangming Blood King Eagle, immediately saw through it and ultimately died under his Blood-Red Rainbow Heavenly Pillar. How similar this scene was!

Having figured out the key point, the ninth-tier demon king, Cangming Blood King Eagle, sneered, and his powerful senses instantly probed the four figures that had escaped to the distant sky.

A moment later, the ninth-order demon king Cangming Blood King Eagle was stunned. In his mental perception, the auras of these four figures were exactly the same, without any difference. Even their realm, strength, and injuries were completely identical!

"What kind of clone technique is this?! It's incredibly powerful!"

"

Upon realizing the extraordinary skill of creating clones, the ninth-tier demon king, Cangming Blood King Eagle, was instantly stunned. However, he quickly realized that Xiao Xuanyuan was now at his wit's end, his strength had plummeted, and he was probably nearing the end of his life. There was nothing left to worry about!

No matter how clever you are, you are all destined to die!

The Ninth-Order Demon King Cangming Blood King Eagle sneered inwardly. In an instant, its massive body moved, flapping its giant wings fiercely as it charged towards Xiao Xuanyuan's figure at the very front!

The hunt between cat and mouse, man and creature, has begun!

He escaped; Xiao Xuanyuan is truly remarkable! If he couldn't escape, he would be killed!

With his keen soul perception, Xiao Xuanyuan noticed that the ninth-tier demon king, Cangming Blood King Eagle, was chasing after the nearest figure of his own. He couldn't help but wipe away a cold sweat, quickly took out a high-grade fifth-rank pill from his storage ring and swallowed it. He then pushed the Burning Technique to its limit to absorb the medicinal power as quickly as possible.

When he was struck by the Ninth-Tier Demon King Cangming Blood King Eagle's "Netherworld Blood Rainbow Technique," he was utterly devastated and terrified, thinking that he was about to perish here.

But at the crucial final moment, a strange heat suddenly appeared in his second dantian. Instinctively, he desperately drove this heat, and instantly his body split in two, lunging forward.

His main body barely escaped the killing blow of the crimson rainbow pillar, leaving only the Xiao Xuanyuan that was transformed from a trace of his essence blood, which was completely crushed by the crimson rainbow pillar!

At this moment, a sudden realization dawned on him: this divine ability was the innate talent of the magical beast "Snow Illusion Golden Spin," the Phantom Clone Technique!

Previously, in order to master this Heaven-rank movement technique called Golden Cicada Concealment, he simultaneously refined the Golden Horned Thunder Leopard and the Snow Illusion Golden Core. Under extremely low probability circumstances, during the Azure Thunder Phenomenon last time, he activated the Golden Horned Thunder Leopard's lightning attribute talent and absorbed a lot of lightning-type pill lightning power, which allowed him to barely escape with his life from that Azure Thunder Phenomenon!

Xiao Xuanyuan originally thought that it would be good enough to be able to activate the magical beast's innate attribute of the Golden Horned Thunder Leopard, and that the Snow Illusion Golden Spinner was not worth mentioning. However, he did not expect that under such a life-and-death crisis by chance, he would still be able to fully activate the Snow Illusion Golden Spinner's innate ability, the Phantom Clone Technique!

When faced with a true life-or-death crisis, it can be used three times to split one's body in two, then in four, then in eight, to escape. However, Xiao Xuanyuan's instinct triggered it just now, and it split in two, saving his life.

Then, it could only split twice more, turning into four identical Xiao Xuanyuan, with no difference whatsoever in the slightest detail, such as physique, aura, and injuries.

"This Snow Illusion Golden Spin's Phantom Clone Technique really saved my life, but it only has three uses, what a pity!"

As Xiao Xuanyuan fled, he sighed inwardly. In his keen senses, one of the Xiao Xuanyuan figures, formed from a wisp of blood essence, had lost contact with him. It seemed that he had been killed by the ninth-tier demon king, Cangming Blood King Eagle!

There's really nothing to say about the current situation. Even if things are fine for now, that ninth-tier demon king, Cangming Blood King Eagle, will catch up sooner or later!

They are still in such a dangerous place, not yet free from the shadow of death!

What should he do?!

There's no way to escape!

Chapter Fifty-Six: Formation of the Golden Core

"It seems I have no choice but to master the Golden Cicada Concealment combat technique as soon as possible, otherwise I really can't outrun that ninth-tier demon king!"

A moment later, Xiao Xuanyuan understood the key point.

The reason he has not been able to escape the pursuit of the ninth-tier demon king, the Azure Blood King Eagle, is that his speed is not as fast as the other party's. Every time he escapes to a great distance, he is eventually caught up again.

Moreover, he couldn't defeat the ninth-tier demon king, the Azure Blood King Eagle, which is why he always ended up in dangerous situations.

In other words, only by truly breaking through the current minor success level of the Golden Cicada Concealment Heaven-rank movement technique to the major success level will the speed naturally increase exponentially, at which point the detestable creature behind him can be completely rid of him.

"Another one gone!"

With a subtle sense of awareness, Xiao Xuanyuan's expression tightened as he realized that one of his phantom clones had been killed by the ninth-tier demon king, Cangming Blood King Eagle. Now, only one phantom clone and himself remained.

His nerves immediately tensed up, reaching their limit. The energy from the eight or nine metal-type magic cores he was holding in his hands was being frantically absorbed into his body like a torrent of released shackles. He had no time to spare, nor did he care whether his second dantian could handle it. He just kept absorbing and injecting energy, expanding as if it were expanding. In an instant, the metal-type battle qi in his second dantian was completely filled and spread throughout the entire metal-type meridian network.

"Netherworld Blood Rainbow Technique!"

The ninth-tier demon king, Cangming Blood King Eagle, opened its mouth and spat out a pillar of blood-red rainbow, annihilating the second figure of Xiao Xuanyuan. Tong Kongli showed a headache. He really didn't expect that these four figures of Xiao Xuanyuan were not only identical in aura, injuries, and physique, but also in their escape speed. By the time the ninth-tier demon king, Cangming Blood King Eagle, finished killing these two figures, the other two figures, whose true forms were indistinguishable, had already escaped to an unknown distance.

Even if it were to chase after it now, it would probably take some time. It is true that it can catch up with Xiao Xuanyuan's Golden Cicada Concealment movement technique by relying on the flying beast's innate supernatural speed, but it will take some time. After all, the Heavenly Rank movement technique "Golden Cicada Concealment" is no joke and is extremely powerful.

Seeing that the fake phantom clone in front of him had been pierced and killed by him, the ninth-order demon king Cangming Blood King Eagle was quite helpless. He took another breath, flapped his huge wings, and chased after the third phantom clone in the distance!

Now that we've already killed two fake phantom clones, there are only two left. One of them must be real, so there's no need to give up halfway!

As the last phantom clone was destroyed, Xiao Xuanyuan's already taut nerves tightened even more. While using the Golden Cicada Divine Concealment Technique to travel at full speed, he also began to activate this technique to open up some unfamiliar meridians, creating a new cycle of energy.

He had already opened up more than half of the caves during his previous cultivation. Now, only some finishing touches remained. He just needed to increase his speed as soon as possible and keep carving. Cold sweat dripped down his forehead. Xiao Xuanyuan had a piece of hard wood stuffed in his mouth and was enduring the pain with gritted teeth.

A new metal meridian was completely opened up.

A moment later, another one appeared! Xiao Xuanyuan completely disregarded the limits that his body's meridians could withstand, constantly swallowing healing pills and using metal-elemental energy to frantically chop and hack at those meridians, unfolding them extremely brutally, thus making extremely fast progress!

After a period of rapid progress, the remaining, not yet stable, metal veins were all connected, forming a new major circulation route.

Finally, the cycle was completely formed. Without saying a word, Xiao Xuanyuan immediately controlled the metal-type battle qi in his second dantian and continuously rushed towards this new Great Circulation route. During this process, due to the incomplete stability of the metal-type meridians, cracks were constantly breaking out, and the metal-type battle qi mixed with blood continued to circulate!

The excruciating pain made Xiao Xuanyuan's eyes turn bloodshot! But he could only continue doing it!

Finally, a new Great Cycle of Qi circulated, and the circulation of the metal-type fighting qi within his body would continue indefinitely according to this new Great Cycle without Xiao Xuanyuan needing to actively guide it anymore.

Enduring the trembling from the intense pain, Xiao Xuanyuan forcefully focused his mind on his second dantian, continuously compressing the metal-elemental battle qi returning from the Great Cycle of Reincarnation, drawing it into the swirling vortex of battle qi. He then guided the entire vortex of battle qi towards its center, compressing and condensing it repeatedly.

This feeling is like wringing out freshly washed clothes with both hands, constantly squeezing and wringing them dry without stopping—it's so strenuous!

Just as Xiao Xuanyuan felt his mind was about to be scattered by the backlash from the vortex in his sea of ​​qi, a golden oval object the size of a goose egg was quietly floating in the original position of the vortex!

"The golden cicada has vanished, its strength unwavering; heed my command, condense into a pill!"

Despite the extreme pain in his body and his mind on the verge of collapse, Xiao Xuanyuan struggled to recite the incantation, barely managing to gather his last bit of power to compress the oval object the size of a goose egg in his dantian to its final limit!

The oval golden sphere, the size of a goose egg, shrank by half, and gradually shrank by half again, until it was only the size of a thumb!

All the metal-elemental battle qi in the second dantian was gathered in this small sphere. The surrounding area seemed to have been distorted and blurred by the recoil force. If one was not careful, this thumb-sized sphere would explode and immediately blow up the second dantian, blasting Xiao Xuanyuan's entire body into pieces.

This is the crucial final step!

Xiao Xuanyuan felt a sharp, excruciating pain in his head, a sign that his mental energy was exhausted to the extreme and on the verge of collapse. If he couldn't control it, the thumb-sized golden ball might not kill him, but it would shatter his mental energy and turn him into an idiot!

Biting his tongue hard, Xiao Xuanyuan's mind cleared up a bit. Taking advantage of this momentum, he suddenly began to condense and refine the thumb-sized golden ball, making it completely stable inside!

At this moment, Xiao Xuanyuan had no extra strength left. Fortunately, he still had the lightning-type battle qi to continuously forge the thumb-sized golden ball!

Like being forged in the fire, under the hammering of lightning-type battle qi, the thumb-sized thing burst out with a slight crackling sound, began to expand continuously, and finally settled firmly into the shape of an egg!

As the perfectly round golden core, the size of an egg, took shape, the precarious state of the second dantian, which seemed about to collapse under the terrifying power released by the golden ball, immediately stabilized, and the buzzing sound gradually disappeared!

Chapter Fifty-Seven: Golden Angel Wings

A moment after the perfectly round golden core, about the size of an egg, was formed, the second dantian quickly stabilized, and a surge of refined metal-type battle qi continuously emanated from it.

"We finally succeeded!"

Xiao Xuanyuan's face was as pale as paper, his head was covered in sweat, and his clothes were already soaked through.

With his mind focused on the almost flawless, sparkling, and golden elixir, Xiao Xuanyuan slowly exhaled.

Around it, countless lightning-type battle qi condensed and enveloped the entire second dantian, as if everywhere except for this golden core was filled with cyan lightning power.

Seeing this, Xiao Xuanyuan couldn't help but smile wryly. Ever since he awakened the Golden Thunder Leopard's Golden Thunder talent attribute, the countless energies of the Azure Thunder Heavenly Phenomenon had been automatically absorbed by his body and stored in this second dantian, used together with the metal-type battle qi!

But the metal-element battle qi has already condensed into a golden core, so what should be done with this huge amount of lightning-element battle qi? Should another lightning-element golden core be condensed in the second dantian? Won't these two golden cores fight each other?

For a moment, this gave Xiao Xuanyuan a headache, and he didn't know how to handle it! But just then, a voice pulled him back to reality!

"I told you, you cannot escape. If you obediently stop, I promise to give you a complete corpse!"
