Chapter 260 Spy War and Refining the Five Puppet Sky Thunder Formation
In just a quarter of an hour, a Nascent Soul monk was killed by Chen Ling, but he himself was not seriously injured.
This terrifying combat power stunned everyone present.
"My husband's strength is developing so fast!"
Li Yourong's eyes flickered, and his eyes were full of brilliant colors.
Wei Wenwu, who was attacking the war boat defense formation, looked at Chen Ling with his eyes widened in shock.
He was secretly glad that it was the right decision to join the Chen family as a guest.
Zhang Peng has been a monk who has been in Yuanying for more than a hundred years, and he comes from Haoguang Sect.
He usually has sufficient training resources and his combat power is far superior to him.
But now, not even the Nascent Soul and Soul Body can escape, and are completely killed by Chen Ling, who is in the early stage of the Golden Elixir.
This made him more determined to stay in the Chen family from now on.
Not only are the training resources guaranteed, but there are also opportunities to go further in the future.
At the same time, Li Jinshu, who was fighting Jian Er, had a horrifying expression on his face. How could he dare to continue fighting? He injected mana into the astrolabe, condensed the sword formation, and drove Jian Er away with all his strength.
Taking advantage of the gap, he ran away quickly and shouted loudly, "Fellow Daoist Chen, I have no ill intentions towards your Chen family. I was completely dragged here by Daoist Friend Zhang!"
"I'll take my leave now. I'll visit you again the next day and apologize to fellow Taoist!"
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that Zhang Peng, with his powerful soul, could be killed so easily.
And there actually exists in the world an early-stage Jindan monk with such a powerful soul!
You know, Zhang Peng is the leader of the Haoguang Sect, and he practices soul magic skills of a high level. He also got the opportunity in his early years to take the elixir that strengthens the soul.
The cultivation level of the soul is more than a star and a half better than that of Yuanying monks of the same level.
To put it simply, even middle-stage Nascent Soul monks may not be able to take advantage of him.
"cough!"
After killing Zhang Peng, Chen Ling put his storage ring into his arms, then took out two Yuan Soul Pills and drank them.
Quick refining.
Now, the soul in his sea of consciousness has been almost exhausted, with less than 20% left.
Barely able to control the Sword Two Puppet and the Platinum Ape.
And he naturally couldn't let Li Jinshu escape easily.
Although the soul consumption was too great, he still had the Void Fire Cauldron and Sword Pills, which were enough to deal with Li Jinshu in the early stage of Nascent Soul.
At this moment, the Platinum Ape was very fast, and its giant fist flew into the air and suddenly struck down at the fleeing Li Jinshu.
The star disk sword in Li Jinshu's hand burst into flames, condensing seven star swords and slashing down towards the platinum ape.
But the platinum ape ignored the golden giant fist, which was like a golden mountain, overwhelming the sky and the earth.
boom!
The sword light collapsed.
Li Jinshu's face was ashen, and the blood in his chest was boiling.
The astrolabe in his hand had now broken into several pieces.
You know, this is a fourth-level medium-grade psychic treasure, and it is made of fourth-level Venus stone. Just like that, it was smashed to pieces by the Platinum Ape's punch?
Li Jinshu's expression changed drastically and his hair was messy. In front of him was the burly White Gold Ape, and behind him was the unstoppable Jian Er.
He had no way out.
And there was no fighting spirit in his heart.
"Master Chen, please give me some good advice, but don't force me to blow up my Nascent Soul!"
Li Jinshu knew that it was difficult to be kind at this time, so he calmly said to Chen Ling coldly.
Chen Ling's expression sank slightly.
Although dealing with this person is not a big problem, if he self-destructs his Nascent Soul, he can even use the Void Fire Cauldron to cover him.
This risk is not small!
Otherwise, the Void Fire Cauldron will be damaged.
This was something he didn't want to see. After all, the Void Fire Cauldron was a trump card he kept against Du Qingyun.
But it was impossible for this person to just let him go.
The thought turned around quickly, and the cold crystal flame appeared in Chen Ling's hand.
The Cold Spirit Crystal Flame has devouring properties. Even if the Nascent Soul self-destructs, it can be greatly weakened. If you use the Void Fire Cauldron, it won't pose much of a threat!
He pursed his lips and said indifferently, "I want to test how powerful your Nascent Soul's self-destruction can be?"
"You?" Li Jinshu obviously didn't expect that Chen Ling would be willing to fight him to the death.
Swallowing his saliva, he felt the violent aura of the spirit flame in Chen Ling's hand, and said with a somewhat softened tone, "Master Chen, you and I have no enmity in the past and no enmity in the recent past. We don't have to be so desperate. Let's discuss it and make peace." expensive!"
He is only five hundred years old now, and with the lifespan of a Nascent Soul cultivator of more than a thousand years, he still has a long time to live.
He didn't want to die inexplicably like Zhang Peng.
As long as Chen Ling is willing to let him go and give some resources, he is still willing to accept it!
Chen Ling's eyes narrowed slightly, and he was quite confused.
Of course, he would not believe that a monk who could cultivate to the Nascent Soul would still insist on peace being the most important thing.
If he hadn't killed Zhang Peng himself, how would he have shown weakness like this?
He touched his chin and said calmly, "In that case, it depends on your sincerity!"
Hearing this, Li Jinshu took a deep breath, with a look of helplessness on his face, and said in a deep voice, "I am willing to pay two million spiritual stones, plus three fourth-level star yuan stones!"
"Two million spirit stones, Fellow Daoist Li, you think you are too worthless!"
Chen Ling's eyes darkened and he said calmly.
In this situation, it would be too cheap for him to just spend two million spirit stones!
Li Jinshu's lips trembled, his expression was stunned, he thought for a moment, gritted his teeth, and said with a wry smile, "Then three million spirit stones, plus four fourth-level star yuan stones."
"Excuse me for asking, what is your relationship with the Cao family of Lanyue Sect?"
Chen Ling ignored Li Jinshu's proposal, but turned his eyes and asked thoughtfully.
Li Jinshu ignored Chen Ling's words for a moment. If Chen Ling was concerned about the Cao family, how could he kill Zhang Peng directly.
He said cautiously, "Our Seven Star Sect is an affiliated sect of the Cao family, and I have a good relationship with Cao Zhengqing, the Nascent Soul cultivator of the Cao family!"
Chen Ling thought for a moment, exhaled, and said in a different tone, "Young Daoist Li, why don't you make a contract with me and become a guest of my Chen family."
"Be loyal to my Chen family for the next twenty years, and then you will regain your freedom."
When Li Jinshu heard this, his expression suddenly became heavy and he became a little uncertain.
"Why, does it embarrass Fellow Daoist Li to become a guest of my Chen family?"
Following Chen Ling's words, the platinum ape puppet roared and prepared to strike with a giant fist.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, please listen to my explanation!"
Seeing the murderous aura surging on Chen Ling's body, Li Jinshu was suddenly startled and spoke hurriedly.
It was said that he would self-destruct his Nascent Soul. How could he have such courage?
It was just a threat to Chen Ling so that he could have room to bargain!
Zhang Peng's strength was far superior to him, and they all died clearly.
I don't want to follow in his footsteps.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Ling's cold voice came over, "Stop talking nonsense, or you will die if you don't agree!"
When Li Jinshu heard this, he trembled all over and said with a wry smile, "Okay, I would like to be the guest of the Chen family!"
Chen Ling nodded with satisfaction, and with a thought, the huge body of the Platinum Ape Puppet regained its shape.
"Hey, let's save our lives first."
"It's just losing twenty years of freedom!"
At this moment, Li Jinshu was secretly lucky.
This result is much better than Zhang Peng's.
"Okay, then Fellow Daoist Li will sign this Jinyuan Blood Contract first."
As he spoke, a several-inch emerald green jade box floated in front of Chen Ling.
Open slowly.
Inside the jade box is an exquisite round gold and jade plate, about the size of a palm.
There are mysterious runes engraved on it.
This kind of contract is also a kind of treasure.
Usually, Chen Ling would refine some whenever he had free time.
"Golden Yuan Blood Contract!"
Li Jinshu looked surprised.
The Jinyuan Blood Contract is a fourth-level spiritual contract.
It is currently the most effective Soul Dao Contract that binds Nascent Soul cultivators, far beyond those Dao Heart Oaths.
Once a breach of contract is made, the soul will suffer a huge backlash, ranging from severe physical damage to a loss of realm and a hopeless path.
Or else he will die immediately!
Of course, there are many restrictions on the use of the Jinyuan Blood Contract. The most important point is that both parties need to be willing.
The two puppets were still eyeing each other, and Li Jinshu had no other choice.
He could only grit his teeth, squeeze out a drop of blood essence and a trace of soul energy, and pour it into the jade plate.
Chen Ling also followed the example of the gourd and poured blood essence and soul essence into the jade plate.
Then his face condensed, he chanted the spell in his mouth, and pointed it at the jade plate.
As spiritual power was injected into the jade plate, obscure golden runes emerged one after another on the surface of the jade plate.
Both of their souls trembled, and they felt an obscure feeling.
The Jin Yuan blood contract has been established.
Li Jinshu took a deep breath and showed a look that didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Thinking of the dignified Nascent Soul monk, he came to the Chen family in an aggressive manner, but he didn't expect that he would end up like this, and was forced to sign a guest contract.
As for the content of the contract, he didn't pay careful attention at the moment.
He is a slave to others and a fish to fish, and no matter what the conditions are, he cannot control them.
But as long as you can save your life, the rest will be taken care of later.
"Fellow Daoist Li is now the guest of my Chen family, so I have to trouble you to help the guest to kill the people on the war boat!"
Chen Ling glanced at the war boat in the air, whose bow was surrounded by Wei Wenwu and others, and said with an indifferent expression.
This is Li Jinshu’s certificate of submission!
Just now, he suddenly had a plan in his mind. Li Jinshu was actually on good terms with the Cao family.
Then make good use of it.
In the future, there may be some unexpected gains.
"good!"
Li Jinshu nodded decisively. Anyway, the three golden elixirs on board the war boat were all monks of the Haoguang Sect, so they would be killed if they were to be killed.
Immediately, his body flashed and appeared above the war boat.
Then, a loud rumble came.
After a while, screams sounded one after another.
······.
"Master Chen, fortunately he lived up to his fate!"
Li Jinshu returned to Chen Ling, raised his hands towards him and said.
"good."
Chen Ling nodded slightly.
With a flick of his sleeve, a bottle of pills fell in front of Li Jinshu. He cleared his throat and said with a smile, "There are five Haoyuan Pills in them. They are my first offering to Li Keqing!"
"Thank you, Master!"
Looking at the elixir bottle, a look of surprise flashed in Li Jinshu's eyes.
Five Haoyuan Pills cost at least 400,000 low-grade spiritual stones, and only a large sect could buy them.
Chen Ling gave it to himself without even blinking!
It seemed that the Chen family's heritage was deeper than he thought.
At this time, the anxiety about becoming a guest of the Chen family immediately disappeared.
"Um!"
"Next, let's talk about business!"
"I want you to go back to the Seven Star Sect first and secretly help me find out about the Cao family and the Du family!"
Only then did Chen Ling reveal his true purpose.
He had already signed the Jinyuan Blood Contract, and he was not worried that Li Jinshu would dare to betray him.
Li Jinshu's expression changed when he heard this. How could he provoke the Cao family and the Du family?
Seeing Li Jinshu's surprised expression, Chen Ling smiled and said, "Don't worry! Just do something within your ability!"
Li Jinshu breathed a sigh of relief.
Then Chen Ling used a soundproofing technique and slowly discussed it with Li Jinshu.
······.
Time flies by like water, and in the blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed.
On this day, the sky was like an endless stretch of blue silk, and the sun was shining brightly!
In a huge mountain col in Yudie Mountain.
I saw five groups of flames mixed with golden light and purple light arranged according to the five elements.
Puppets of different shapes are burning in each ball of flame.
And a man in white is sitting cross-legged among the five flames.
This person is Chen Ling.
At this moment, he was refining the Five Puppet Heavenly Thunder Formation with the help of the Five Ultimate Thunder Flames.
Next, he will use the Soul Splitting Puppet Refining Technique to drive the five Heavenly Thunder Puppet Soul Marks into these five puppets.
During these days, he refined Zhang Peng's storage ring and obtained six top-grade spiritual stones from it, as well as many miscellaneous things.
All in all, it was worth several million low-grade spiritual stones.
Chen Ling put away the ores and elixirs, and put some of the exercises, treasures, etc. that he didn't need into the family Scripture Pavilion and Treasure Pavilion.
And this time, I obtained several fourth-level Star Essence Stones from Li Jinshu, all of which contain the Star Essence Law.
Chen Ling has already refined them into Wang Yun's Xingyuan Sword.
The Xingyuan Sword was also upgraded to the fourth low-grade level, which greatly improved Wang Yun's combat power.
After the soul in his body was completely restored, he started planning and refining the Five Puppet Sky Thunder Formation non-stop.
Now he already has a plan in mind.
Although the Platinum Ape and the Golden Horned Sheep are both metallic, using the Five Ultimate Thunder Flames as the formation disk and relying on the fusion and transformation of its flames and thunder flames, it is completely possible to form the Five Puppet Heavenly Thunder Formation.
After carefully recalling the soul seals of the Five Puppet Heavenly Thunder Formation, Chen Ling looked cautious and immediately started refining the soul seals.
With a flash of consciousness, he began to outline the soul seal.
I saw a flash of inspiration in the blazing purple flames, and the puppet soul patterns continued to merge.
Three days later.
Chen Ling, who looked tired, opened his eyes.
The refining of this puppet array consumes divine energy.
In the past three days, he had refined thousands of puppet soul patterns almost continuously.
If it weren't for the fact that his soul strength was no less than that of the mid-stage Nascent Soul, plus the soul was extremely pure, it would have been impossible to do it.
"It's done."
With a thought, Chen Ling was very excited as the Five Ultimate Thunder Flames slowly returned to his hands.
At this moment, five puppets surrounded him.
In order, they are Platinum Ape, Golden Horn Sheep, Golden Lei Peng, Thunder Sky Bird and Jian Er.
The appearance has not changed much, but no one would have thought that between them, the fourth-order high-grade Five Puppet Sky Thunder Formation has been integrated.
Once activated, its power far exceeds that of its own body.
Currently, the power of the Five Puppet Heavenly Thunder Formation is no less than that of the late Nascent Soul.
In addition, the main formation disk is the Five Ultimate Thunder Flames. If the power of the Five Ultimate Thunder Flames is consumed to activate it, the power of the Five Puppet Heavenly Thunder Formation will be further enhanced.
However, this is a huge drain on Wujue Leiyan.
If you have enough high-quality thunder-attribute spiritual stones, there is no need for this.
After all, using the Five Ultimate Thunder Flames to activate it will only have the power of two strikes, and then it may fall into dormancy for one or two years.
Fortunately, Chen Ling has condensed the source of thunder in his body, so his recovery speed will be faster.
Divine consciousness swept over the puppet one by one. In the puppet's control center, there was a top-grade spiritual stone on each head.
Chen Ling wanted to try the power of the Five Puppet Heavenly Thunder Formation, but he was reluctant to consume the best spiritual stones.
With this blow, one or two top-quality spiritual stones may be gone.
Chen Ling thought for a while and decided to try using the Five Ultimate Thunder Flames, and his consciousness immediately moved.
at the same time,
With a sizzling sound, a round of purple flames rose again from his hand, and then shot in the direction of the five puppets.
A blazing flame was like five purple flame chains, connecting the five puppets together.
In the flames, streams of lightning shone continuously on the puppet's body.
The breath released was extremely violent, like five seas of thunder that could erupt at any time.
Chen Ling's eyes narrowed slightly, and he carefully controlled the Five Ultimate Thunder Flames, accurately injecting the strands of lightning from the flames into the puppet's crystal core.
Boom boom!
As the lightning surged in, the five puppets roared with thunder!
After a while, Chen Ling felt that almost one-fifth of the Five Ultimate Thunder Flames had been consumed, and he hurriedly stopped the flames.
Such delicate control also caused faint traces of sweat on Chen Ling's forehead.
"combine!"
Chen Ling shouted lowly.
Suddenly, lightning emerged from the body of the five-headed puppet.
The giant golden fist in the hand of the platinum ape struck slowly, and in a moment it condensed into a huge thunder fist.
The golden horn on the forehead of the golden horn sheep shines with golden light, turning into a thunder fox and condensed into a thunder sword!
Jin Lei Peng, Lei Tian Que and Jian Er each also shot out roaring thunder.
The originally silent mountain col was instantly filled with violent thunder.
As the thunder surged, it intertwined into a shining thunder sea, with lightning and thunder within a hundred feet radius.
Immediately afterwards, five thunder beams suddenly circled in this deadly scenery.
It looked like five ancient thunder beasts, erupting with an astonishing thunderous roar.
Immediately afterwards, the Five Jue Thunder Flames flashed suddenly.
The five rays of lightning merged together instantly.
A huge thunder beam rushed out from the sea of thunder, like a thunder dragon dozens of feet tall, releasing earth-shattering thunder.
The terrifying thunder dragon, with its violent power that annihilated the void, quickly bombarded a hill dozens of feet high in front of it!
"boom!"
There was a deafening explosion, like a meteorite crashing down from the sky.
Dust and smoke billowed, and the huge hills were instantly flattened.
As the dust and smoke dissipated, one could clearly see wisps of lightning flashing from the cracks in the hills.
"I didn't expect that by stimulating only one-fifth of the power of the Five Ultimate Thunder Flames, the combat power gathered by the five puppets is no less than the attack of the monks in the early stage of Nascent Soul."
Chen Ling murmured.
He was quite satisfied with the power of this blow.
If the Five Ultimate Thunder Flames are completely integrated into it, the power is totally worth looking forward to!
If the potential of the five puppets is fully activated, they might already have the power to kill the late Nascent Soul!
Chen Ling thought so, but the specific situation still needed to be tested in actual combat!
