I Am Evergreen In the World of Cultivating Immortals Chapter 438

Chapter 438: In the middle of the duel, take advantage of the situation (updated in the evening)

“How could Mr. Lu be so virtuous and capable that he, a mere newly promoted Nascent Soul cultivator, actually asked the Great Elder of the Beast King Valley to personally take action?”

Looking at the harmless old man, who was white and fat, Lu Changan's expression was solemn, which seemed a little unexpected.

"Lu Changqing, your reputation has spread throughout the Eastern Region. You are no longer an ordinary Nascent Soul monk. Why do you need to show off in front of this old man?"

 The great elder smiled, touched his exposed belly, and said slowly.

 Over the years, Lu Changan has brought too much trouble to Beast King Valley, directly disrupting the existing strategic plan.

Lu Changan returned to the Eastern Region, bringing with him the combat power of the three Nascent Souls, allowing the leader of the Wei Dao Alliance to fight without seeking peace. The peacefully evolved annexation plan collapsed.

Lu Changan humiliated the Peacock Saint and slapped the two Nascent Soul elders in the face, leaving the Beast King Valley unprepared and hastily starting the Immortal Cultivation War.

 A few years ago, Lu Changan lost two true kings of the Beast King Valley, which once again affected the balance of the top combat power of both sides.

What worries Beast King Gu the most is that Lu Changqing killed two fourth-level beast kings one after another, both killing them with one blow.

Lu Changan's existence has become a nightmare for the war machines in the Beast King Valley!

 If this continues, Beast King Valley will be unable to attack the Wei Dao Alliance, and its only frontal advantage will be gone.

Lu Changan's influence is not limited to the Demonic battlefield on the side of the Guardian Alliance, but also indirectly affects the Seven Nations Alliance.

 The situation in the Seven-Nation Alliance has stabilized in recent years.

Beast King Valley not only withdrew the aid from there, but also asked for help from the Netherquan Sect and the Wujian Sect, which in disguise weakened the offensive firepower of the Seven Nations Alliance.

“The Great Elder is here today, but he plans to intercept and kill Lu?”

Lu Changan sighed in relief. It seemed that it would be a bit difficult to fish in troubled waters on the main battlefield and seize the opportunity to capture the Demonic Nascent Soul.

He borrowed the power of the Heavenly Master to lay out the plan for a long time and concealed many secrets.

 But the Great Elder of Beast King Valley is also a fourth-level divination master, so he is not so easy to deceive.

As long as this great elder is not stupid, he can now determine one fact:

Lu Changan is the biggest variable that determines the outcome of this immortal cultivator war, and is even the key winner.

Hence, he did not hesitate to lower his status and came to target Lu Changan in person.

 “This elder doesn't like fighting and killing.”

“As long as Lord Lu Zhen, Lord Diyan, and Fairy Xia don't leave this frontline area, I will be happy and at ease.”

 The elder's tone was easy-going and he didn't seem to have murderous intentions.

 Lu Changan was not fooled by this appearance.

If possible, Beast King Valley would like to cut himself into pieces.

 It's just that Lu Changan represents the combat power of the three great Yuanyings. Even if he is the leader of the Demon Sect in the middle stage of Yuanying, it is unrealistic to kill him head-on.

“It would be too much for the Great Elder to restrain the strength of the three Nascent Souls like us.”

Lu Changan's eyes flickered, and the [Black Sky Wings] unfolded behind his back, trying to fly to Yuanliu City to support the frontal battlefield with Xia Xianzi.

 “Haha, fellow Daoist Lu, you might as well give it a try.”

The Great Elder was calm and turned into a cloud of white light that melted into the sky.

 Lu Changan had just flown out of a hundred miles.

Thunder came again from the deep clouds, and the mana fluctuations at the peak of the mid-stage Nascent Soul, accompanied by the overwhelming spiritual pressure, made people feel numb.

Lu Changan's head suddenly trembled, he raised the cyan mana shield, dodged quickly, and split into three in an instant.

More than a dozen translucent crystal silk threads appeared strangely and inexplicably from the void, passing through Lu Changan's quickly dodging figure.

Lu Changan's two phantom wood clones were swept by strange silk threads and were instantly destroyed.

 A "click" sound.

Lu Changan's protective shield cracked with the sound, and was pierced by two passing crystal silk threads.

Lu Changan's body felt cold, and the white robe on his shoulders had a clearly visible crack.

That translucent crystal silk is a magical power developed by the Great Elder of the Beast King Valley in conjunction with the natal silkworm. It is extremely fast and can travel through the shallow layers of the void, making it impossible to prevent it.

 Its characteristics are partially similar to Jing Wufeng's space attack method, and it is more sustained and continuous.

 Hush!

The black sky wings behind Lu Changan flapped, and while speeding up to dodge, a black cloud of clouds swept across a hundred feet in radius.

However, the crystal silk was extremely tough and had strong penetrating power. Many of them penetrated the black wind barrier, forcing Lu Changan to dodge left and right.

 “As expected of the leader of the Demon Sect.”

Lu Changan took a deep breath, did not dare to neglect, and offered up the magic weapon [Dragon Wood Staff].

　　【Dragon Wood Staff】swelled in the wind and turned into an ancient tree nearly a hundred feet tall. The blood-colored dragon shadow was outlined on the surface, blocking most of the crystal silk attacks.

The [Dragon Wood Staff] was wrapped in crystal silk threads. Its surface was dim and its volume shrank rapidly. It was obvious that it could not hold up.

 In fact, to deal with this kind of silk attack, fire attribute magic weapons or magical powers are more effective. For example, the best magic weapon Lihuo Gourd.

　　唰! Uh-huh! Whoa…

Lu Changan used the puppet control technique again, and twelve top-level third-level puppets appeared around him.

In the puppet army formation, twelve puppet forces are gathered in series, and arcs flash, forming a purple-green puppet formation pattern.

A purple-green light shield protected Lu Changan, bursting out wisps of electric light to resist the strange crystal silk threads that flew from the shallow layer of the void.

That momentum seemed to turn into an overwhelming net, trapping Lu Changan and the puppet formation together.

 “Such a scale of puppet army! This guy really has a hidden agenda.”

As expected, the great elder of the Beast King had a gleam in his eyes.

The stronger the cards Lu Changan reveals, the higher the value of his personal targeting.

 At present, the military formation composed of twelve top-level third-level puppets is enough to withstand the early offensive of the veteran Nascent Soul.

 Including Lu Changan himself, he was able to stand firm under the first round of probing attacks by the Great Elder of Beast King Valley.

 “Little friend Lu, let's see what other methods you have.”

The great elder was very interested and stretched out his arm, and a simple and strange compass flew out of his sleeve.

Whoosh!

The compass magic weapon hovered over Lu Changan and the puppet army formation, emitting an invisible and qualityless ripple.

The ripples and vortices invisible to the naked eye pull and absorb the surrounding aura and mana.

Lu Changan felt that his mana consumption had increased, the control of the magic weapon became difficult, and his mana and magical powers were invisibly weakened.

 Even the puppet military formations are restricted.

The mana of the puppets that started operating in the puppet array was lost inexplicably, resulting in a decrease in the efficiency of the puppet array's operation.

 Lu Changan's face looked ugly.

With the puppet army formation, he thought that it was enough to compete with the new mid-stage Nascent Soul such as Zhenjun Mingshui.

Unexpectedly, he was suppressed by the great elder of Beast King Valley in an understatement.

 The puppet crystals in the bodies of many puppets are consumed rapidly and may not be able to last for long.

 “Master, let me help you!”

In the hills below, earth-colored crystal light emerged, exuding a majestic earthly evil spirit.

Seeing that his master was suppressed, Mr. Diyan had no choice but to take action in advance.

 It transformed into the form of a giant rat king, causing a yellow sandstorm in the sky, accompanied by huge rolling stones, impacting the great elder and the compass magic weapon.

The great elder smiled slightly and used the magic formula. The magic power caused the compass in the sky to spin, and a mysterious hole emerged in the invisible ripple vortex.

Huh huh~

 In an instant, the sweeping yellow sandstorm and huge rolling stones were greatly reduced in momentum and disintegrated. The escaped magic power was absorbed.

Instead, it was a rotating compass. The aura surged out of thin air and then stagnated briefly.

　　Bang!

Compass erupted with a fan-shaped ripple, containing a powerful force field, and hit the fourth-level Rat King hard.

Diyanjun groaned and flew backwards. His head was slightly sunken and some blood oozed out.

 Fortunately, the demon king's body is rough-skinned and thick-flesh, with only some external injuries.

 But the momentum of the massive counterattack came to an abrupt end.

 From the beginning of the confrontation to the appearance of the puppet army formation and Lord Diyan, Lu Changan did not pose any threat to the Great Elder of Beast King Valley.

"This old guy has powerful magic power and profound knowledge. No wonder Chu Tianfeng said that on the battlefield, you only need to contain him and don't think about causing a threat, otherwise it will be a thankless task."

Lu Changan was a little unconvinced at first, but after some testing, he came to an understanding.

 He adjusted his strategy and let Lord Diyan and the puppet army focus on defense. In the defensive state, the consumption of the puppet army array is also reduced accordingly.

 In this way, it is indeed much easier.

 The Great Elder of Beast King Valley seems to be unable to pose much of a threat to him.

“Lu Changan, if you reach the peak of the early stage of Nascent Soul, your magic power and spiritual consciousness will be even more powerful. I really can't do anything to you.”

 The Great Elder sighed, his calm eyes flashing with a sharp light.

That fat body, with its robes fluttering, took one step, like a mountain moving hundreds of feet.

 Spirit-slaying hand!

The elder's palm swelled to the size of a cattail leaf fan, wrapped in white silk, and ignited a blood-black ghost flame, and patted Lu Changan from the air.

Lu Changan's heart skipped a beat, and he felt a sense of crisis that he had not seen for a long time.

 Hoop!

The huge soul-slaying hand with black and white marks, half solid and half ethereal, hit Lu Changan with a speed that was unavoidable.

At that moment, the space Lu Changan was in had the illusion of overlapping and squeezing.

Diyan Lord, who was not far away, was affected. His soul felt slightly dizzy and confused, and his energy and blood were floating.

Lu Changan was hit head-on, and the mana shield around him collapsed on the spot.

Not only that, he instantly shot out a fourth-level spiritual talisman water shield, but it was also broken by the half-empty spirit-slaying hand.

 “Slaughter the soul and destroy the soul…”

Lu Changan's figure swayed, his face turned slightly pale, and his brows tightened.

 The half-empty spirit-slaying hand not only hit his body, but also impacted the Nascent Soul.

Lu Changan used the secret technique of the soul in "Thousands of Machines to Evolve the Gods" to soothe the temporarily chaotic consciousness. The cyan Nascent Soul, which was slightly painful in the body, quickly calmed down and returned to normal.

 At the same time, the Evergreen mana automatically operates to heal the tiny hidden wounds and damaged vitality in the body.

On the other side, the great elder launched a burst attack, which consumed a lot of mana and spiritual energy, but also paused for a moment.

"Blocked? The injury doesn't seem serious."

The elder frowned slightly and looked at Lu Changan who was steadying his body. The expected effect of vomiting blood on the spot was not achieved.

Lu Changan opened his eyes and lightly touched the blood on the corners of his lips, as if he was still unfinished.

 He hasn't been injured, even slightly, in years.

“The great elder's slap just now caused some pain to Lu. But the aftertaste afterward was an indescribable numbness and comfort.”

 With the flow of Changqing's mana, the minor injuries suffered by Lu Changan's quasi-fourth-level body healed in an instant and recovered completely.

The Great Elder's pupils condensed and he said in a deep voice:

“Little friend Lu, don't worry about it! Don't hold it in when you're injured, otherwise it will cause problems.”

Having said that, the Great Elder felt that the previous attack on the Soul-Slaying Hand was a bit strange after it hit Lu Changan after two layers of buffering.

Lu Changan's body is much tougher than he imagined. He seems to be also quite accomplished in physical training.

In addition, Lu Changan's Yuanying consciousness is powerful, stronger than some veteran Yuanyings, and he has also practiced exquisite soul and secret techniques.

 Various factors led to his explosive ultimate move not achieving the expected effect.

But if he wanted to say that it posed almost no threat to Lu Changan, he still couldn't believe it.

 However, in the ensuing battle of skills, Lu Changan's magic power was strong and endless. A magic weapon controlled by the divine consciousness, flexible and free.

 Apparently no injuries were sustained.

 “This boy is really a turtle shell!”

 The Great Elder of Beast King Valley sighed secretly, and simply gave up his plan to seriously injure and defeat Lu Changan.

Although the spirit-slaying hand just now was not his strongest method, it was quite lethal and could not cause any real harm to Lu Changan. He realized that Lu Changqing was similar to him, and his ability to protect himself was far superior to that of his peers.

 When two turtle shells meet together, it is naturally difficult to tell the winner.

Above the clouds, Lu Changan and the Great Elder of Beast King Valley clashed for a moment. Both sides adapted to each other's methods. You came and I went back and forth, and no one could do anything to the other.

 The Great Elder is relatively calm and takes more initiative.

During the confrontation, Lu Changan confirmed that the great elder had the late third-level body refining attainments.

 I heard from Chu Tianfeng that this person's natal silkworm has super powers of recovery and healing.

 It's just that Lu Changan hasn't hurt the Great Elder of Beast King Valley yet;

At this moment, an icy frosty light came from the side, exuding the mana breath of the Nascent Soul stage.

“Husband, I'm here to help you!”

Xia Xianzi came from the side and cooperated with Lu Changan to attack the great elder.

 The elder's eyelids twitched slightly, it was endless.

 As a thousand-year-old Nascent Soul, at such an advanced age, he was about to face a group fight from Lu Changan and the others.

 The original plan was to contain the three major Nascent Soul forces of Lu Changan, Diyanjun, and Xia Xianzi.

 But before, Xia Xianzi had not taken action, Lu Changan was enough to resist him.

 He had to admit that Lu Changan's true strength was much stronger than initially expected.

If it were Sect Leader Meng who came here, he might be suppressed or even suffer a loss.

Xia Xianzi came over to fight. The great elder did not give in, but his expression became solemn.

Xia Xianzi made secrets with her hands, her skirt fluttered, and snowflakes flew, just like an ice and snow fairy.

 A magnificent dream-like ice lotus magic weapon made of crystal jade flew out from her body.

The ice lotus magic weapon was divided into seven and turned into seven ice crystal light lotuses that bloomed with green light. Some ice crystal light lotuses rotate around the body to protect the body, and some are extremely flexible to attack the elder of the Beast King Valley.

Every strike of the Ice Crystal Light Lotus is like the impact of an iceberg, the ice shatters and explodes, sending chills to the bones.

“This treasure integrates offense and defense, is flexible, magical, and powerful. It is definitely not a product of Daqing..."

The Great Elder was slightly surprised, and finally understood why True Lord Black Feather and Elder Wan He collapsed and sank into the sand at that time.

Xia Xianzi has an innate Taoist body, which has a bonus to cold magic spells, which is exactly what it needs to be a powerful magic weapon. His fighting strength is no less than that of the veteran Nascent Soul in its early stages.

Facing the siege of the four, the Great Elder felt pressured and had no choice but to use the [Celestial Silkworm Treasure Clothes] to protect himself.

The treasure robe is woven and refined from heavenly silk. The dense white silk flows and shines, forming a white halo of treasure robe.

 【Celestial Silkworm Treasure Clothes】Invulnerable to water and fire, supported by the powerful magic power of the leader of the Demon Sect, it can block half of the enemy's offensive.

The Beast King Elder also controls the compass magic weapon to weaken Lu Changan and the puppet formation's fighting strength, absorb mana and spiritual power, and counterattack from time to time.

 “The old guy can really carry it.”

Lu Changan remained calm and retracted one hand into his sleeve.

 After being informed, Mr. Diyan and Fairy Xia immediately cooperated and took action.

Diyan Lord used the Earth Binding Technique to pull the great elder's body.

Xia Xianzi opened her mouth and spit out a few blue ice flames, exuding a dangerous aura, and flew towards the great elder.

This is the natal ice flame that she cultivated from the secret method inherited by Zhenjun Lingxue, combined with her Taoist talent.

Coupled with the frontal attack from Lu Changan's [Dragon Wood Staff], the Great Elder fought and retreated, and the light shield of the white treasure clothes on his body suddenly dimmed by half.

At almost the same time, Lu Changan's hand hidden in his sleeve robe secretly started to work.

 A feathered poisonous needle passed through the air as a blurred afterimage, and with the foreshadowing of many offensives, it accurately hit the target.

 There was a "pop" sound, and the treasure-clothed light shield was finally broken.

The great elder escaped from the critical point, and the poisonous needle penetrated into the silk-woven treasure garment.

 On the surface of the silk, a small trace of blood seeped out.

 Lu Changan looked happy.

This feathered poisonous needle is smeared with mixed fourth-level poison and comes from the original [Five Birds Poison Fire Fan]. That old Shen Xie was particularly good at using poison.

 Perhaps not fatal to the mid-stage Nascent Soul, but enough to reduce the target's status and fighting strength.

 “Lu Wugui, you are indeed very calculating and cunning.”

 The great elder's face was slightly gloomy.

 Unexpected.

The great elder who was stabbed by the poisonous needle did not look panicked or angry, and he did not take the detoxifying pill immediately.

The great elder stretched out his **** and took out the feathered poisonous needle on his treasured clothes, and said in a calm tone:

“This level of fourth-level poison can't even hurt the old man.”

It turns out that his natal silkworm has the magical ability to detoxify and detoxify.

Even the Heavenly Silkworm Treasure Clothes on his body has a good effect on isolating poisons.

 Therefore, even if the feathered poisonous needle scratches the great elder's flesh, there is no real threat.

 He doesn't even need to take the antidote.

The Great Elder felt a little proud when he saw Lu Changan who was slightly startled in the distance.

At this sight, his expression changed drastically.

Lu Changan in the distance is just an illusory afterimage.

It turns out that when the great elder was hit by a poisonous needle with feathers and was briefly distracted, Lu Changan used "Phantom Wood Clone".

 The figure with flowing green light appeared on the other side of the great elder.

 Destroy the divine light!

Lu Changan decisively used the life-breaking forbidden technique. A deep and twisted withered green light condensed in his palm, exuding the aura of the cycle of time, and hit the great elder's body again.

 Poof!

The treasure-clothed light shield that had not completely healed was once again broken by the divine light of extinction.

"not good!"

As a thousand-year-old man, the Great Elder's heart was pounding and he felt a threat that had not been seen in hundreds of years.

 He turned into a white light and retreated quickly.

 The [Celestial Silkworm Treasure Clothes] on his body has dim spiritual light. After the refining ban, the silk fabric lost its luster and withered over a large area.

 The broken treasure clothes left a hole of dried blood on his chest.

 “Land turtle, you dare—”

The great elder became angry for the first time, the fat on his round face trembled slightly, and his heart was bleeding.

The attack just now cost him ten years of life and life and blood.

If it was an ordinary injury, he wouldn't care at all, the natal silkworm would be able to heal in an instant.

 However, the longevity that is deprived cannot be restored.

 In addition to losing longevity, [Celestial Silkworm Treasure Clothes]'s spirituality is damaged, and its defense effect is sharply reduced.

However, no matter how heartbroken and angry he is, it cannot change the fact that he was injured, his life was shortened, and he suffered a great loss.

 “Get ready to retreat!”

Lu Changan suddenly raised his hand, not only did he not pursue the victory, but he also asked Xia Xianzi and Diyan Jun to stop.

 At the moment, the great elder of Beast King Valley is injured, his vitality and blood are depleted, his defensive clothing is damaged, and his condition and strength will definitely decline.

“This injury has no real impact on the Great Elder of Beast King Valley.”

 Lu Changan explained when he retreated.

You must know that the natal silkworm of the Great Elder of the Beast King Valley has another chance to "resurrect from the cocoon" and regain its full magical power.

 Although this magical power can only be used once in a hundred years.

 From beginning to end, Lu Changan never thought about seriously injuring or defeating the Great Elder of Beast King Valley.

 It is a relatively ideal situation to be able to shorten his life by ten years and make him feel fearful.

In the middle Nascent Soul stage that Lu Changan encountered, if the Yuhuang brought the greatest pressure, then the great elder of the Beast King Valley was the "strongest shield".

 “This kid actually stopped chasing...”

The great elder caressed his chest, destroying the wounds caused by the divine light and suffocating the vitality. The healing speed of the natal silkworm was extremely slow.

 He was obviously the injured party, but it was Lu Changan who chose to evacuate.

 Take advantage and run away?

 The great elder felt worse than eating a fly.

 “The situation has become clear…”

Lu Changan's fourth-level divination technique was already in operation, and he sensed the turning point in the fate of the heavens, and the fog of heaven that shrouded the barrier completely dissipated.

The cyan Nascent Soul in Lu Changan's body brought blessing to his soul, and produced a subtle pull, as if some kind of opportunity was about to come.

There are still two hundred miles away from the important frontline town, and Lu Changan instinctively looks in a certain direction.

Hundreds of miles away, a demonic wind swept across the sky.

 A fourth-level roc with a wingspan of twenty feet flew over at lightning speed.

On the Pengniao, sitting cross-legged was a man in a green robe with a plump appearance and an ordinary face. He looked about thirty years old.

 There is no mana fluctuation on the man in green robe. The Nascent Soul and mana in his body are sealed by some secret technique. He does not leak any breath and only relies on the flight of the roc.

“Fellow Lu Dao, please stay! Chen has been friends with us for a long time, so we came to the Wei Dao League to visit us. We have important matters to discuss.”

 The Pengniao that the green-robed man sat down on was as fast as the mid-stage Nascent Soul, approaching it quickly.

At the same time, he glanced at the position of the great elder of the Beast King Valley and frowned slightly.

“We agreed to have a big battle and at least injure Lu Changqing and severely weaken his vitality? The situation doesn't seem right..."

"Is it a scam? Don't trust the immortals of the Six Demonic Sects."

 After all, he was chased by Nascent Soul masters from the two demon sects and almost lost his life.

If it weren't for the delicate situation now, with the Nascent Souls from the two camps trying to balance each other out, and the opportunity being rare, he would not have chosen to cooperate with Beast King Valley.

 “Such an opportunity will indeed attract you...”

 Lu Changan silently estimated the distance.

With his escape speed, he can retreat to the frontline and key points before the opponent comes.

 "You go back to the important frontline town first and act according to the plan of Weihu Yujianli."

 Lu Changan stayed behind and asked Fairy Xia to evacuate first.

"Husband, be careful." Xia Wenyue was a little worried, but didn't ask any more questions.

 Actually, Fairy Xia staying here is also a big help.

  But the next game is risky. Lu Changan has too many secrets, so it's best to keep them a secret.

 Lu Changan chose to end his career.

In this way, three powerful auras appeared on the field:

 On one side is the Great Elder of Beast King Valley, who has the strongest mana.

 One side is where the fourth-level roc is.

The Nascent Soul's magic power sealed by True Lord Aoki has just been released, and the aura of "Eternal Green Technique" exuded makes Lu Changan feel more at ease.

 The last party is Lu Changan and Diyanjun, who seem to be the weakest.

 The three parties formed an almost equilateral triangle, facing each other at a distance, keeping a distance of dozens of miles from each other, and all of them were wary of each other.

 (End of this chapter)
