There was only one day left before the Regenerative Lotus matured, but Jiang Chen wasn't in a hurry. He only needed to get his hands on the Regenerative Lotus before the grand ceremony. So he still had plenty of time to prepare.
Furthermore, the four major powers would be on high alert during these two days when the Regenerative Lotus had just ripened. The eight late Golden Immortal experts would put all their attention on the Regenerative Lotus, which wouldn't be advantageous to him.
Unknowingly, Jiang Chen and the others had already reached the center of the desolate mountain. This place was already very dangerous compared to the outer region of the desolate mountain. Ordinary intermediate Heaven Immortal experts wouldn't dare to step into this place, because there were late Heaven Immortal demonic devils guarding this place. Once they were angered, death would be certain.
In front of them was a desert. It wasn't very big, only a hundred miles in circumference. The desert was calm and tranquil. Apart from the yellow sand, there was nothing else, but Jiang Chen and the others could smell the scent of danger. It was the smell of blood.
Huge skeletons and some human skeletons were scattered all over the place. It was obvious that under the tranquility of the desert, there was a great danger. These skeletons were enough to prove that there were often fierce battles in this desert.
The law of the Immortal World was cruel, especially the demonic beasts. A desolate mountain range was a world. The law here was even crueler. The law here was the law of the jungle.
"Be careful. This desert isn't as peaceful as it looks."
Jiang Chen reminded them and strode into the desert.
* Sha … … *
Just as Jiang Chen and the others entered the desert, they heard a rustling sound coming from the ground. The sound sounded like it came from hell. It was incomparably unpleasant. When it reached the ears of those who heard it, they would feel nauseous and extremely uncomfortable.
* Hong Long … … *
The earth began to tremble violently. The yellow sand on the surface rose and fell. No one knew what kind of powerful monster was hiding underneath. It looked like an earth dragon.
* Roar! *
After that, an unpleasant roar resounded from beneath the ground, and then a monster that was the color of yellow sand charged out. Even though this monster was extremely swift, Jiang Chen was still able to see it clearly. It was an enormous scorpion that was covered in spikes, and its yellow skin emanated rays of dark light. This yellow scorpion had a clear target, and it opened its huge mouth as soon as it appeared and bit towards Jiang Chen's group.
Jiang Chen unleashed the True Dragon Grand Palm, enveloping Yellow Scorpion and heavily slamming him into the ground, turning him into dust.
Countless amounts of black liquid flowed out of the Yellow Scorpion's body, making sizzling sounds. When the black liquid came into contact with the yellow sand, white smoke rose up.
Some of the black liquid came into contact with Jiang Chen's hand, and it sizzled. It seemed like the liquid was going to corrode Jiang Chen's entire hand.
"What a strong poison."
Jiang Chen was slightly shocked, but he didn't take it to heart. He was immune to hundreds of poisons, so these poisons were nothing to him. He could dissolve them in an instant.
"It's actually Scorpion."
Han Yan's expression slightly changed.
"This is the Yellow Poisonous Scorpion. It lives in harsh deserts and is known as the King of the Desert. In addition to being good at camouflage, they are also good at sneak attacks. What's truly terrifying is the intense poison they carry. The poison of the Yellow Poisonous Scorpion is different from ordinary poisons. Ordinary poisons can be identified with a single glance, but the Yellow Poisonous Scorpion has the camouflage of its skin, so it's very difficult to tell that it carries a deadly poison. The Yellow Poisonous Scorpion usually has its own territory, and other demonic beasts don't want to provoke it for no reason.
Obviously, he knew this kind of demonic beast very well. "Da Huang Dog explained.
"This desert has a circumference of a hundred miles. It seems like there is more than one Yellow Poisonous Scorpion down there."
Jiang Chen said.
"That's for sure. The Yellow Poisonous Scorpion lives in groups. In addition to sneak attacks, they are also good at group attacks. We are now deep in the desert. If I'm not mistaken, I'm afraid we have already been surrounded by the Yellow Poisonous Scorpion."
Da Huang Dog said. However, he looked relaxed and not nervous at all. Although the Yellow Poisonous Scorpion was very terrifying, it couldn't display its advantage when encountering Jiang Chen and Da Huang Dog, because these two guys were truly immune to hundreds of poisons. No poison could have any effect on them. Instead, it would become their nourishment. For venomous creatures, once they lost this huge advantage, everything else would be turned into a disadvantage.
"Ah Yan, be careful later."
Jiang Chen reminded Han Yan. He and Da Huang Dog weren't afraid of the poison of the Yellow Poisonous Scorpion, but Han Yan didn't have this advantage. If he was hit by the venom of the Yellow Poisonous Scorpion, it wouldn't be a joke.
* Rustle … … *
As soon as Jiang Chen's voice faded, the rustling sound from below became even more violent. Within a hundred miles radius, the originally tranquil desert suddenly began to rumble, as if there was a great earthquake. Thick cracks began to appear. Chilly wind rustled, countless yellow sand drifted in the air.
* Bang Bang Bang … … *
Huge Yellow Poisonous Scorpions rushed out of the cracks. In just a blink of an eye, more than a hundred of them had emerged, surrounding Jiang Chen and the others. All of the scorpions were staring at Jiang Chen and the others with vicious eyes. There were also a few scorpions floating in the sky. These scorpions had already reached the Heaven Immortal realm, but they were only early Heaven Immortal realm. To Jiang Chen and Da Huang Dog, they couldn't pose any threat at all.
"Dammit! So many of them! This is giving me a headache."
Han Yan couldn't help but curse.
"Don't worry. These scorpions are my nourishment. With them, the Thirteenth Floor of the Zulong Tower will be fully condensed."
In the face of such a situation, not only did Jiang Chen not show the slightest bit of nervousness, he even revealed a hint of a smile.
"Da Huang, you and Ah Yan go into the Zulong Tower. I'll deal with these monsters."
Jiang Chen said to Da Huang Dog and Han Yan, then opened the entrance of the Zulong Tower.
Dissatisfied, Da Huang Dog walked into the Zulong Tower. Although he wanted to stay and fight, Da Huang Dog knew what Jiang Chen was capable of. He reckoned that Jiang Chen wanted to finish off these scorpions as soon as possible. Therefore, he didn't want to waste any more time.
After Da Huang Dog and Han Yan entered the Zulong Tower, Jiang Chen was the only one left in the desert. He stood in the middle of the densely packed scorpions' encirclement. His black hair fluttered in the wind, but there wasn't the slightest hint of fear on his face. Instead, he looked very relaxed.
Roar …
When these yellow poisonous scorpions saw a man and a dog suddenly vanishing into thin air, they roared and lunged at Jiang Chen as if they had gone mad.
"Eternal Immortal Wind!"
Jiang Chen shouted and a powerful Eternal Immortal Wind was about to blast out from his body. However, the instant the Eternal Immortal Wind was about to blast out, Jiang Chen forcefully retracted it.
"Dammit! I almost made a huge mistake."
Jiang Chen secretly broke out in cold sweat. Just now, he only wanted to end the battle as soon as possible. Therefore, using the Eternal Immortal Wind, which was a large-scale and extremely destructive combat technique, was the best way to deal with these scorpions. A gust of Eternal Immortal Wind was enough to blow all the scorpions to death.
However, Jiang Chen had neglected the fact that this Eternal Immortal Wind wasn't his own skill. It was obtained from the Northern and Southern Dynasties. This was a skill that belonged exclusively to the Northern and Southern Dynasties. Currently, the true bodies of the Northern and Southern Dynasties were searching for him everywhere. It wasn't easy for him to remove the imprint left in his body by them. If he used the Eternal Immortal Wind now, it was very likely that he would be sensed by the Northern and Southern Dynasties. According to Da Huang Dog, there was a high possibility that the Northern and Southern Dynasties had powerful Immortal Emperors. A powerful Immortal Emperor would possess unfathomable means and power. He was afraid that the moment he used the Eternal Immortal Wind, he would be sensed by the Northern and Southern Dynasties. Given his current cultivation base, if he fell into the hands of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the consequences would be imaginable.
Fortunately, Jiang Chen thought of this at the critical moment, and retracted the Eternal Immortal Wind as fast as he could. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
It seemed like before he had absolute confidence in dealing with the Northern and Southern Dynasties, he wouldn't be able to use the Eternal Immortal Wind.
"Five Elemental Combat Dragon Seal."
However, Jiang Chen had plenty of means to deal with these Yellow Venomous Scorpions. The instant the Eternal Immortal Wind was retracted, Jiang Chen cast out an even more ferocious Five Elemental Combat Dragon Seal. Dragons of different colours whizzed out, carrying earth-shattering killing intent, rushing towards the Yellow Venomous Scorpions from all directions.
* Hong Long … … *
* Argh … … *
The deafening shockwaves of the battle were accompanied by the miserable shrieks of the Yellow Venomous Scorpions. Under the impact of the Five Elemental Barbaric Dragons, a large number of Yellow Venomous Scorpions were killed. Some of them were directly crushed into powder. Their essence and blood were absorbed by the Zulong Tower on the spot.
Many of the Yellow Venomous Scorpions who died tragically released their own venom before they died, trying to cause great harm to Jiang Chen. Unfortunately, the venom had no effect on Jiang Chen at all.
The entire desert fell into a frenzy. Yellow sand and blood mixed together. This was the most primitive and most ferocious massacre. In just one minute, all the Yellow Venomous Scorpions below the Heaven Immortal realm had been wiped out by Jiang Chen.
The few Heaven Immortal Yellow Venomous Scorpions had yet to make their move. They hovered in mid-air, their eyes filled with shock. Looking at the tragic scene below and the massacre of their people, a monstrous rage suddenly burst out from their bodies.
