The Silverline Rat Devil struggled to block the Blood Monkey Ghoul King's attack, but a sinister gust of wind came from behind. The Silverline Rat Devil cursed inwardly. By the time he reacted, a bone chain had already broken through his defense and was tightly wrapped around his neck.
Crack! The bone chain contracted on its own, and the Silverline Rat Devil's ferocious head drooped down.
"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Xun Hong. You are an existence on par with us. You are not as easy to kill as this Silver-Striped Rat Devil. Moreover, we do need Fellow Daoist Xun Hong's help to control the Sun Burial Bone Chain. It won't be too late for us to split it after we retrieve the dragon essence," Xuan Yan Ghost King said with a chuckle upon seeing Xun Hong's uncertain expression.
"Wait a minute." Zhao Zhen hurriedly called out when he saw that Xuan Yan Ghoul King was about to make a move.
"What else do you have to say?" Blood Monkey Ghoul King said with an unfriendly expression.
"I still have two portions of essence blood. I originally planned to use them for other methods. Giving them to you is equivalent to double what I have." Zhao Zhen said, "The essence blood is in my Sumeru Ring."
"Besides, the floating ice that seals the dragon essence can remain unmelted in the Heavenly Corrosive Gui Spring Water. Do you think you can break this ice with your own strength?"
"Do you have a way to break this ice?" Xun Hong asked coldly.
"Of course there is. After you salvage this Long Yuan from the deep pool and guarantee my safety, I can tell you the method to break the ice. If you can't even do this, we have nothing to talk about," Zhao Zhen said.
"Alright, then we'll talk about it after we retrieve the dragon essence." Xuan Yan Ghoul King nodded and took out two bottles of essence blood from Zhao Zhen's Sumeru Ring. As for the other human cultivators, they had many treasures. However, Xuan Yan Ghoul King was a ghoul and could only use a limited amount of them, so he left them aside.
"This is the essence blood of the twin brothers, Zhou Shiqing and Zhou Shihu of Tianwu Kingdom." Even from a distance, Lu Xiaotian could feel the familiar metal element aura coming from the blood when the bottle was opened. It was exactly the same as the aura Zhou Shiqing and Zhou Shihu had released when they attacked.
"Are you sure?" Xiang Qingcheng asked doubtfully.
"Brother Kuang and I had some dealings with these two brothers when we passed through the gray light barrier from the Black Water Domain. There was no mistake. Logically speaking, even if this Zhao family member was strong enough to defeat the Zhou brothers, he shouldn't be able to kill the two of them. Could it be that there's something else going on? "
Lu Xiaotian's eyes revealed a pondering look. Moreover, according to the conversation between these guys, if the White Jade Spider's cultivation was profound and it had lived for a long time, it should have some hope of fishing out Long Yuan from the deep pool. In other words, Su Qing should be fine right now. She might have been controlled by the experts of the Zhao Clan.
The White Jade Spider was an ancient species. It was hard to find even one or two of them in the entire Scarlet Abyss Continent. It was already good enough to run into one. Counting on its age to meet the requirement was even less likely than running into a Soul Formation ancestor.
In that case, if he could get the White Jade King Spider here, it shouldn't be a problem to get the Long Yuan. He was right to save Yan Xiaoyu back then. However, due to his style of doing things, he didn't throw Yan Xiaoyu away after using her. Otherwise, once the master died, the White Jade King Spider wouldn't live for long. It would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens for him to find another White Jade King Spider.
However, before bringing Yan Xiaoyu to this damned place, he had to figure out what the Zhao Clan's plan was. Zhao Zhen and the people of the Zhao Clan in front of him were very strange. No matter how he looked at it, this matter seemed to have been arranged.
"Do you think this could be a trap set by the Zhao Clan?"
Xiang Qingcheng's gaze swept past Lu Xiaotian's face from time to time. Seeing Lu Xiaotian's pondering expression, which was no different from the Lu Xiaotian he used to see, Xiang Qingcheng was greatly relieved. Seeing Lu Xiaotian's dejected look over the dead Luo Qing, Xiang Qingcheng also felt bad. It wasn't that Luo Qing didn't deserve pity. From a woman's point of view, Xiang Qingcheng even admired Luo Qing a little. In order to no longer suppress her feelings, she didn't hesitate to give up hundreds of years of cultivation. Even Xiang Qingcheng, who had always done things his own way, admired this free and easy attitude.
Xiang Qingcheng felt sorry for Luo Qing, but he didn't want to see Lu Xiaotian's sad look even more. Only the Lu Xiaotian in front of him, who was lost in thought from time to time and analyzed the pros and cons, could perfectly match the Dong Fang in his heart.
"It's not impossible, but we have to wait and see. I also don't think things are so simple." Lu Xiaotian nodded, agreeing with Xiang Qingcheng's suspicion. It was just that Zhao Zhen's method was watertight. Even if it was a trap, he wouldn't put himself in it. But now, Zhao Zhen was really under the control of the Xuan Yan Ghost King.
A thought suddenly popped up in Lu Xiaotian's mind. Could it be that Zhao Zhen still had a way to escape, and had other arrangements?
Lu Xiaotian released his Primordial Spirit, carefully searching for any traces of enemies nearby.
"Little Friend Lu was right. This Zhao Clan member is definitely not simple. At least four Zhao Clan experts have appeared in the surroundings. Even further away, there's a Late Stage Ghost King. His strength is about the same as the Silver-Striped Rat Devil. "Lu Xiaotian didn't ponder for long before Venerable Ghostfire spoke.
"What is this Zhao Clan person up to?" Lu Xiaotian was secretly shocked. From the beginning to the end, the Zhao Clan person's shadow was involved.
"Who knows? Just now, that Zhao Clan kid said that the Zhao Clan ancestor Zhao Chang called a deer a horse. It's already shocking enough. Even I've heard of it for the first time. This ancient Di Clan, which has been passed down since the Pre-Qin Dynasty, is indeed extraordinary." Not only Venerable Ghostfire, but even Long Shi was astonished. This trip to the Spiritual Mound Secret Realm had broadened their horizons.
"Looks like we can only wait and see." Lu Xiaotian snorted. No matter what the Zhao Clan person was up to, unless a Spirit Severing Realm Great Ancestor appeared, it wouldn't be easy to deal with him.
At this moment, at the edge of the black pond, Xuan Yan Ghostly King shook her hand and the bone chain in her hand flew out. Lu Xiaotian had only just learned from Xuan Yan Ghostly King that the bone chain he had fought with had the flashy name of the Sun Burial Mystic Bone Chain.
The Sun Burial Mystic Bone Chain flew out of Xuan Yan Ghost King's hand like a spirit snake and swam back and forth in the air.
Xuan Yan Ghost King pointed his finger and shot out streams of evil ghost qi, which were devoured by the Sun Burial Mystic Bone Chain. "Brother Blood Monkey, it's time."
"Here it comes." Blood Monkey Ghost King put his palms together. If one didn't see his terrifying face, one would think that he was a senior monk. A large talisman with a blood-red skull pattern flew out from Blood Monkey Ghost King's back. The crimson skeleton inside laughed incessantly as its greedy eyes scanned the surroundings, looking back and forth between Xun Hong and the Blood Monkey Ghost King.
