A hint of coldness appeared in Zhang Yan's eyes. In this battle, he had to kill Shen Lintu's avatar no matter what. Otherwise, once it escaped and recuperated for a period of time, it might come looking for trouble with him again.
Although he had enveloped it within the Heaven and Earth Leaf, he also knew that this alone wouldn't be enough to kill this avatar.
Yuanying avatars were different from flesh and blood. They were formed from the essence of a cultivator's lifetime of cultivation. After being injured, as long as it wasn't damaged at all, it wouldn't take long for it to recover after finding a secluded place to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
From this, it could be seen that the Dragon Carp under the sea was most likely not dead. It might still have some battle power left. That was why Shen Lintu rushed out in a hurry. He didn't even have the chance to stop and catch his breath.
The five-colored brilliance behind Zhang Yan turned. That fire-like red light landed again and circled around the golden light released by the Heaven and Earth Leaf.
Chapter 228 – True Fire Refining Dharma Body Diving into the Sea to Capture the Dragon Carp Facing the Sky, if seen from afar, it would seem as though a bonfire had been lit in the sky, dyeing the clouds red and the sky red.
He sat on top of the cloud and performed a hand seal, controlling the fire and sending it into the golden light.
Shen Lintu was trapped in the Heaven and Earth Leaf. Because of the great battle earlier, his transcendence energy was lacking. He couldn't break out for a while.
However, even though he was in this state, he still forced himself to be calm. He didn't think that Zhang Yan could do anything to him. He was still thinking of a way to escape.
It wasn't until the True Light of Fire came in that he realized something was wrong.
If this fire came in contact with even a little, it would definitely burn away some of his essence. Even if he used his protective light, it would be useless. It would be melted the moment it came in contact with him. Instead, it would speed up the pace of his death.
He hurriedly took out a pearl from his mouth and held it in front of his chest. It released a circle of brilliance that covered his entire body. He barely managed to hold on.
A moment later, the pearl shattered into powder with a "kacha" sound, and the tongue of flames licked up. After a few brushes, his body, which was already somewhat unstable, became even dimmer.
Seeing that the red flame was burning brighter and brighter like a furnace, if this continued, he would definitely be refined here. Only then did he completely panic, shouting in panic, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, if there's something you want to say, we can talk about it. Why do you have to make things difficult for this old Daoist?"
He waited for a while, but didn't get a response. He became even more anxious and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, if you want the Yin Killing Saber, Daoren can make the decision to give it to you. In the future, I guarantee that no disciple of my monastery will cause trouble for you. If you let me out, Daoren will owe you a favor. How about it?"
Zhang Yan snorted coldly and did not reply.
Subsequently, no matter if Shen Lintu begged, threatened, or lured him with treasures, he ignored all of them. Seeing that Shen Lintu still had the strength to speak, he increased the activation of his transcendence energy.
Four hours later, there was no longer any sound coming from the golden light.
However, Zhang Yan still did not relax. The Heaven and Earth Leaf and his mind were connected, so he naturally knew the changes in the situation inside.
After all, Shen Lintu had spent hundreds of years cultivating the Dharma Body. Its foundation was exceptionally strong. Even now, it had not been destroyed. It was still accumulating power and waiting, as if it was waiting for the moment he was careless to break out.
After cultivating for another half an hour, Shen Lintu saw that his body was faintly discernible. He knew that the outcome was already decided. His face involuntarily revealed a look of despair and ruthlessness. He let out a wild laugh and said, "Zhang Yan, you destroyed my Dharma Body. From now on, my disciples will not rest until you are dead!" Just you wait! "
As soon as he finished speaking, countless rays of fire surged up. With the sound of an explosion, his body suddenly exploded, turning into countless strands of essence energy that dissipated. There were also several magical treasures that flew out, but they were blocked by the golden curtain of light, unable to escape. The Universe Leaf swayed a few times before it stabilized.
Zhang Yan shouted and pointed with his finger. The Nine Captions Devil Slip flew out. As soon as it appeared, there was celestial music in the sky, like clear spring water. It paused for a moment before it was thrown into the golden light.
After a while, the devil slip absorbed all the essence Qi and turned into a ray of spiritual light. It spun out and returned to his hand.
Zhang Yan stretched out his hand and stroked the jade slip. He had already figured out the details of Shen Lintu's Dharma Body.
Because there was no person's Primordial Spirit in it, he knew that this time he did not completely kill this Elder of Chongyue True Temple.
When a Qi cultivator reached the third stage of Yuanying, there was a benefit. The deity level could sit in the cave and cultivate while the Dharma Body could travel the world. This way, it would not delay the cultivation. It could also travel the mountains and rivers, the earth, the deep swamps and ponds, looking for those rare external objects for cultivation.
Some bold cultivators would simply find a secret cave to hide their body and use the Dharma Body to travel with their Primordial Spirit. This way, the power of the Dharma Body would not be reduced.
However, there were also some cautious people who only separated a strand of their Primordial Spirit and attached it to the Dharma Body. Although the supernatural power and mana that they could cast were not as good as the former, it was better in that it was safe and would not be destroyed after being killed.
When Tao Zhenren was on the East Sea, he used the Dharma Body to fight the enemy. His Primordial Spirit was still left in the real body to wait for the birth of the Immortal Abode. It was also because of this that his combat power was slightly weaker. Otherwise, the three Yuanying Elders who besieged him would not have been able to last until the moment he achieved the Immortal Abode.
Shen Lintu was a steady person. He did the same. Although the Dharma Body was destroyed, his Primordial Spirit was not lost. His life was still preserved.
However, after this disaster, it was equivalent to him losing half of his cultivation. Yuanying cultivators only had a lifespan of about a thousand years. Unless there was a treasure of heaven and earth or a great opportunity, it would be difficult to cultivate back before his lifespan came to an end.
Zhang Yan thought that even if Shen Lintu did not die this time, it would be difficult for him to achieve anything in the next hundreds of years.
Even so, this Daoren could reincarnate no matter how bad he was. He was not like the cultivators who were killed by him before. Even their Primordial Spirits could not escape.
Zhang Yan was also emotional. When one cultivated to this level, not only was his mana strong, it was like he had an extra life.
Actually, only a disciple of a big sect like him would have such thoughts. Even if the cultivators from other sects cultivated to this level, they would only be extra careful. They would not dare to put their corporeal bodies in the abode to cultivate.
Once the Yuanying Dharma Body left the body, the deity level would become extremely weak. If someone came to destroy it, the deity would not be able to fight back.
Cultivation of the Great Dao, one could not lack Dharma Partner, wealth, and land. Not to mention the supernatural power and cultivation items, a good cultivation abode could not only be nourished by spiritual power, but also set up a prohibition array. When the owner left the abode, they would not have to worry about others attacking them.
For example, the Clear Nether Heavenly Lake had the little Huzhang. As long as there was a capable person to manage it, it could even defend against the attacks from people from the Heavenly Abode.
If Zhang Yan cultivated to the third stage of Yuanying and used his Dharma Body to travel, he would not have to worry about people destroying his body.
Moreover, the disciples of big sects had seniors from the same sect to support each other, so there was no need to worry.
Zhang Yan waved his hand and kept the Heaven and Earth Leaf and the few treasures left behind by Shen Lintu. He did not have time to look at them and just threw them into his sleeve.
At this moment, his gaze moved down and he looked at the floating blood on the waves. He thought to himself, "I wonder how the dragon carp is. If it is really heavily injured, I cannot let go of such a rare opportunity."
Thinking about this, he did not hesitate. He leaped up and used the Water Escape Technique to dive into the deep sea.
With this Divine Path Technique, his body was faster than the fish in the sea. Without spinning, he traveled dozens of miles.
Along the way, he saw countless corpses of fish spirits and prawns. The deeper he went, the more corpses he saw.
As far as the eye could see, there were shattered limbs of the Shell Whale. Even the Sea Python Demon Shark that had followed the Dragon Carp over earlier had been slashed into countless pieces. Its broken body floated in the water, and the entire place was filled with the smell of blood. It had practically dyed the seawater below red, and one could see just how intense that battle was.
After a few miles, he was already in the deep sea. He slowed down and carefully swam in this part of the sea.
After approximately an hour, he discovered that there was a black jade belt that was a few miles long beneath him, and it was meandering and climbing above the seabed. It had a majestic appearance, and it was like the shape of a dragon. The spiritual energy was vast and unrestrained, and it was simply comparable to a paradise. However, the surroundings were abnormally quiet, and not a single aquatic creature approached.
His expression changed slightly. After thinking for a while, he followed the stone belt and walked forward.
After traveling for a hundred miles, the Black Jade Belt converged into a place where spiritual energy was deposited. Layers of rocks were piled up, forming a mound that looked like a dragon's head. He looked at it for a while, and his eyes suddenly focused.
On the dragon's head, there was a black shadow that was hundreds of feet in size. It was surrounded by dozens of shark demons. The dragon carp demon was lying quietly among them. Its claws were tightly clenched on two pieces of jade that looked like dragon horns. Its back was moving up and down, as if it was resting …
At this moment, it looked extremely miserable and was no longer as mighty as before. Not only was its tail fin broken, but thick blood with a fishy smell floated out from time to time. The whale scales on its body were even more broken. There were knife wounds everywhere, exposing a large area of its internal muscles. The knife wound on its neck was especially shocking. It almost chopped off its head, and the wound was so deep that bones could be seen.
At this moment, there were two golden whiskers that were thirty feet long stretching out from its lips. They floated along with the water, and as they swayed, spots of spiritual light flew up from the black jade and entered the wounds.
Zhang Yan was also secretly shocked. This dragon carp's cultivation was almost comparable to a cultivator in the third stage of Yuanying. He had also seen the power of this demon, but he did not expect Shen Lintu to be able to injure it to such an extent. It could be seen how powerful its mana was. If it disregarded its life and fought with him, it would be difficult to get away without using the North Dark Sword.
This dragon carp also noticed Zhang Yan's approach. Its originally dull eyes suddenly condensed with a hint of light. It stared at him and made a sound, trying to intimidate him.
Zhang Yan's expression was calm. Don't look at how miserable this old demon looked. This kind of mutant should still have a certain amount of combat strength. After half a day, it should have recovered a little. Just now, when it stared at Zhang Yan, Zhang Yan could feel the waves around him faintly surging, as if they were brewing a raging wave. But since he dared to come here, he also had the confidence to subdue this demon.
Not only did Shen Lintu seriously injure this demon, but he also killed more than half of its guards. At this moment, the ones surrounding it were no longer a threat.
He pointed his finger and said, "Go!"
Suddenly, the seventy-two "Ten Thousand Beasts Sleeping Moon Streamers" flew out together. More than two hundred thousand demon soldiers walked down from the streamers and lined up in a formation. In an instant, they formed the "Six Returns Earth Frame Formation", surrounding the dragon carp and its subordinates.
Zhang Yan leaped up and landed on the main altar, holding the main streamer with one hand.
This was the first time he used this formation against an enemy after it was completed. It was a good opportunity to test the power of this formation!
