Man is in the midst of the mysteries of the spirit, and the flesh is infinitely deduced

Chapter 172 Taotie

The long dragon narrowed its eyes, and its muscles tensed up. The scales on its body that had not yet completely transformed emitted a spiritual light, and faint thunder wrapped around its body, revealing the power of a demon beast overlord.

Long Zilei had already seen that the other party had an extremely strong aura of a demon. It was none other than the legendary ancient ferocious beast - Taotie!

Even though the state of this Taotie is a bit strange, it seems to be far from its heyday.

But the feeling of oppression coming from the blood cannot be faked, and it makes it feel frightened.

This is definitely a powerful enemy that should not be underestimated!

On the other hand, a greed stronger than ever before arose in Long Zilei's heart.

"If I can eat it, I'll turn into a dragon... right before my eyes!"

A low roar came from Long Zilei's throat, sweeping across the nearby mountains like a subwoofer.

"Taotie, why are you stopping me?"

"This mountain range does not belong to you!"

Ye Ling'er's fat face was no longer as gentle and peaceful as usual. Her expression was ferocious. She had no intention of communicating with Long Zilei and just shouted directly.

"roll!"

“Stay away from here!”

Generally speaking, a fierce fight would not break out between two fourth-level monsters.

In the depths of the mountains, where danger lurks on every side, the aftermath of the battle will undoubtedly attract many malicious gazes, and attacks will be launched at a time when both sides are exhausted.

Besides, they have no actual hatred against each other, so why should they fight to the death?

The benefits far outweigh the risks.

However, the current situation is extremely special.

Long Zilei was only a few steps away from achieving the fifth level. There was no way he would let go of the remains in the mountains. He also had his eyes on Ye Ling'er's bloodline.

And for Ye Ling'er, this mountain where her bones are buried also has a special meaning, and she will never give in.

War is ultimately unavoidable.

Among monsters and beasts, the strong are respected and strength is the only thing that matters.

Both sides are aware of this.

Ye Ling'er did not hesitate at all. The huge mountain of flesh burst out with endless power. The burning blood almost ignited the air, and it blasted towards Long Zilei like a cannonball.

*******

Below the clouds.

Anle and the other two all looked surprised.

Cheng Yuemei was confused and puzzled: "Taotie? What is that monster saying?"

This monster, which was born in ancient times, is now extremely rare and its traces are rarely heard of. Its blood alone is a very rare material and can be sold at a high price at the Taixu Palace auction house.

But the question is, where is the second monster present?

Jiang Junliang's expression also changed slightly as he recalled some rumors he had heard.

"Could it be that... this Fellow Daoist Ye..."

The first thing you want to understand is naturally peace and happiness.

He instantly remembered the monster blood that his second senior sister had given him. It contained a mysterious power. It was after refining it with the Heavenly Demon Wheel Technique that he unlocked the term [Taotie's Stomach].

Combined with Ye Ling'er's ridiculously large appetite and some clues revealed in the past, it was not difficult for Anle to guess the truth of the matter.

"So that's it."

Having figured everything out, Anle did not relax. Instead, he looked up into the air even more solemnly.

The older and stronger the bloodline, the more attractive it is to other monsters.

The long dragon would never let go of such prey.

Anle's worries will not have any substantial impact on the war situation.

From time to time, in the dark clouds, there were roars of thunder and surging blood. The sound was so loud and powerful that all the monsters, big and small, in the nearby mountains were frightened by the pressure from this superior. They either trembled in fear or fled in panic regardless of everything.

Two violent and ferocious auras, one purple and one white, collided with each other at a speed beyond what the naked eye could observe, and then entangled and tore each other back and forth.

The purple thunder was like dragons and snakes, constantly moving in the clouds.

The light allowed Anle to barely see the situation on the battlefield.

Ye Ling'er was still in human form, and the Taoist robe on her body, which seemed to never be torn no matter how it was deformed, was still intact. Only some areas of her fair skin appeared charred black, which were the marks left after being hit directly by thunder.

However, in the blink of an eye, these burn marks faded visibly and even disappeared.

Second Senior Sister’s self-healing ability is only stronger than Anle’s.

On the other hand, the scales on Long Zilei's body were broken in three or four places, and sticky red blood oozed out from the cracks.

But for a creature of its size, this was just a minor injury.

"Taotie, is this all you have?"

Long Zilei laughed wildly, with a cruel look in his eyes, and he wantonly provoked Ye Ling'er under him.

"Why do you still maintain this ugly human form?"

"Where is your demon body? Where are your innate magical powers?"

Its eyes were deep, as if it could see through Ye Ling'er's secret: "I see, it's not that you don't want to use it, but that you can't use it, right?"

Ye Ling'er's expression remained unchanged as she snorted coldly, "Are you stalling for time?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she clenched her fists, leaving a shadow, and crashed straight into Long Zilei.

boom!

The force was enough to collapse a mountain, and it fell without any fancy moves.

But what greeted her was a huge net made of thunder.

Lightning bolts were woven together in exaggerated numbers and speeds, rushing and entwining towards Ye Ling'er.

Lightning flashed, and the blood boiled, as if a blazing flame hit extremely cold ice, melting and devouring each other.

The impact caused by the collision of these forces actually directly dispersed large areas of dark clouds, forming a vacuum area in the sky.

"Haha, you're still a step late!"

"The Thunder Prison is now complete. I will gladly accept your blood, essence, and flesh!"

Under the shocked gazes of Cheng Yuemei and Jiang Junliang, in the sky where even the dark clouds were gone, there was thunder and lightning dancing everywhere. Countless bolts of lightning struck downwards, and every time they landed on the ground, they would cause a small forest fire.

It was like a thundering hell from which no one could survive.

The mighty power of heaven is hard to resist.

Cheng Yuemei just felt her whole body trembling and slightly numb.

"My body is numb from such a distance. Is this a fourth-level monster?"

"It's just terrible."

Jiang Junliang's expression was grim and ugly: "This Thunder Dragon can actually cast Ten Thousand Thunder Prison. It is indeed not an ordinary fourth-level one. It is probably very close to the fifth-level."

"Fellow Daoist Ye, it's dangerous."

Anle stared at the figure in the Thunder Prison, feeling quite heavy-hearted.

In mid-air, Ye Ling'er's fat body moved back and forth at an extremely fast speed, avoiding several falling lightning bolts.

However, the lightning in the Thunder Prison was too fast and too dense, almost connected into one. No matter how hard she dodged, she was still hit by countless lightning bolts.

Ye Ling'er has thick skin and flesh, and ordinary lightning cannot harm her.

But the thunder summoned by Long Zilei was all caused by spiritual power, and the number of lightning was large and continuous.

Within a few breaths, Ye Ling'er's body was covered with lightning and turned black, looking extremely miserable.

However, Anle realized that beneath the charred shell, there was immense heat and vitality.

It's as if...something is burning?

Long Zilei's eyes were fixed on the charcoal-like figure. The previous joy gradually faded away, replaced by deep solemnity.

Its keen intuition conveyed an unspeakable sense of crisis.

"Whatever you are doing, die!"

Long Zilei roared angrily, and his claws, which had not yet fully transformed, brought out a vicious wind and swung towards Ye Ling'er fiercely.

Although it is good at thunder magic, its physical strength is equally terrifying. It even used these claws to tear apart a fourth-level monster and turned it into its food.

With this claw, the wind howled and the sky and earth changed color, as if even the mountain was about to be cut in half.

However, at the moment when the dragon's claws were about to touch the carbonized shell.

Click!

A soft sound.

It sounded like an egg cracking.

The lightning of the Thunder Prison was still violent, and the strong wind of the Dragon Claw was equally sharp, but the next moment, the entire claw suddenly disappeared into the air.

The cross-section of the broken part was very smooth, as if it had been bitten off directly by a big mouth, and sticky dragon blood was flowing out of it.

Long Zilei was stunned at first, and then screamed in intense pain.

Roar! ! !

However, this is just the beginning.

An invisible mouth seemed to appear in the sky, with it as the core, constantly swallowing everything around it.

The air, thunder, dark clouds... were all swallowed up by it. Of course, its core target was still Long Zilei.

"This, this is..."

Jiang Junliang was stunned: "Is this Taotie?"

"This power is so terrifying."

If you look closely, you can see a faint shadow of the big mouth, and you can barely see where it is.

The big mouth directly locked onto Long Zilei's position and started swallowing from its tail upwards.

Similar to the dragon's claw just now, the flesh and blood on the tail disappeared out of thin air, and the bones and scales were directly swallowed into it.

Moreover, the big mouth continued to swallow along Long Zilei's spine.

He actually wanted to swallow the whole dragon alive!

Roar! ! !

Long Zilei's roar was filled with pain and fear. He kept summoning thunder to bombard the illusory bloody mouth, but even thunder and lightning could not escape the attraction of the huge mouth, just like food being swallowed by it.

"Tie! Tie!"

This time, Long Zilei truly felt the horror of this ancient demon.

Even though the opponent's realm is lower than his own and his condition is very abnormal, the abilities he unleashed when he really risked his life were so bizarre and terrifying.

'No, we must find a way.'

In this situation, Long Zilei did not despair, but instead felt a strong desire to survive in his heart, and his eyes scanned his body back and forth.

Soon, it saw Anle and other two people standing by the cave.

"This Taotie was traveling with them before, so..."

A cruel light flashed in Long Zilei's eyes.

It was extremely intelligent and could see that there must be some special reason why Ye Ling'er maintained her human form. These three people were probably close to her.

If Ye Ling'er is really cold-blooded and ruthless, that's fine. Just three little reptiles can be killed with just one move!

Thinking of this, Long Zilei no longer hesitated. He swung his dragon body violently and swooped down with the help of his strength and the thunder around him.

"Taotie, if you don't stop, I will kill them all!"
