Chapter 88: Hornless Dragon Essence, Six Days Have passed
Editor: Atlas Studios
Just as Shi Zhaoyuan had said, the Hornless Dragon Essence was indeed completely nurtured in three days. The moment it succeeded, he pounced forward without any hesitation and sat cross-legged on the Dao platform.
Roar! Roar!
Below.
The black crescent moon that was like a dragon seemed to have come alive. It kept struggling and emitted wisps of extremely pure Dragon Qi that were absorbed by Shi Zhaoyuan.
“The energy of the Hornless Dragon Essence is truly immense.”
Shi Zhaoyuan could no longer hide the excitement on his face. He was very happy at this moment. After plotting for 300 years, it was finally time to harvest the fruits.
Qi Ming looked at the changes in Shi Zhaoyuan and muttered softly, “If I don’t interfere, this Shi Zhaoyuan might be able to go far and have a chance to become a true demon. However…”
He recalled the miserable state of the citizens of Heaven Origin City and the scene of the mother and daughter being slashed to death. His gaze gradually turned cold.
Qi Ming was not a Saint.
Moreover, even true Saints had different personalities.
Qi Ming did not see or see such a thing. He probably did not care, nor did he have the energy to care.
However, by chance,he had seen it. If he ignored it and pretended that he did not see anything,
Qi Ming could not overcome the hurdle in his heart.
It could breed inner demons.
Therefore, the Moon Praying Demon Cult had to be exterminated.
Night came.
According to the rule of kowtowing three times in the morning, afternoon, and evening, when the night came, Yuan Feng kowtowed to the straw doll who had written the name ‘Shi Zhaoyuan’ again.
Somehow, a curse power spread.
It was used on Shi Zhaoyuan.
“Eh?!”
Shi Zhaoyuan was absorbing the Hornless Dragon Essence, but his mind was a little dazed. He did not know what was going on either. His Essence Soul shook a little, and the Dharmic powers in his body fluctuated.
The dragon qi that surged into his body fluctuated violently.
Shi Zhaoyuan was shocked. He quickly focused his mind and circulated his cultivation method to suppress the violent dragon qi in his body. He slowly sorted it out.
“What happened just now?”
Shi Zhaoyuan frowned. He felt that something was amiss.
He was a Nascent Soul great cultivator.
How could he fall into a trance?
Moreover, he was still in a highly focused state of refining the Hornless Dragon Essence, so he should not be in a daze. This situation happened inexplicably and there was no sign of it.
“Could it be because I absorbed the Hornless Dragon Essence?” Shi Zhaoyuan pondered.
The power and strangeness of the Nail Head Seven Arrows were indeed mysterious. Even Zhao Gongming, a Golden Immortal, had his three souls and seven spirits almost scattered when he was struck by the Nail Head Seven Arrows.
If not for Grandmaster Wen Zhong reminding Zhao Gongming, as a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal, Zhao Gongming would not have discovered that he had been cursed by the Nail Head Seven Arrows.
Of course, the Nail Head Seven Arrows refined by Qi Ming could not be compared to the real thing, Nail Head Seven Arrows Book. The difference between the two was like the difference between a firefly and a bright moon.
However, Shi Zhaoyuan was only a Nascent Soul great demon. He naturally could not compare to Zhao Gongming, who was a Golden Immortal. He was also a firefly compared to the bright moon.
Therefore, Shi Zhaoyuan could not find out that he was cursed by this mysterious curse technique.
After some thought, Shi Zhaoyuan could only attribute the reason to the Hornless Dragon Essence. He guessed that the effect of the Dragon Essence was too powerful, which was why there was such a backlash during the refinement.
“How sad. He’s about to die but doesn’t know it.” Qi Ming shook his head.
On the fourth day, Yuan Feng kowtowed three times again.
The number of times Shi Zhaoyuan appeared to be in a daze had increased. The speed at which he refined the Hornless Dragon Essence had also slowed down greatly. It even almost caused the dragon qi to go berserk.
“The situation has become more severe.”
Shi Zhaoyuan frowned and had a serious expression. He lowered his head and looked at the Hornless Dragon Essence beneath him. He took a deep breath and said, “I need to speed up and absorb the Hornless Dragon Essence as soon as possible.”
Heaven Origin Mountain Range.
The Moon Praying Cult disciples formed a small team to patrol the surroundings and search for Yuan Feng and the others everywhere, but they did not find many traces. However, as they gradually went deeper, they were already close to the place where Yuan Feng and the others were hiding.
“Elder.” The disciple said, “There are already Moon Praying Cult members around.”
Lei Qihai nodded. He looked at Yuan Feng and instructed the other two disciples, “Cheer up. Whether we can win or not will be in the next few days.”
“Keep a close eye on those Moon Praying Cult members. As long as they discover anything, immediately attack.”
“Yes.”
“Got it.”
The two disciples nodded solemnly.
On the fifth day, Yuan Feng kowtowed three more times.
At night.
Pew!!!
This time, Shi Zhaoyuan’s situation was extremely serious. He could not suppress the violent dragon qi in his body, causing him to suffer a backlash. He spat out blood and his face was pale.
However, when he recovered, he checked his body, but he did not discover anything. He was not injured at all, and his Essence Soul was very normal.
“What exactly is going on?”
Gradually, Shi Zhaoyuan became more and more anxious, but he had no idea what was going on.
On the sixth day, three times in the morning, afternoon, and evening, Yuan Feng kowtowed again.
This time, Shi Zhaoyuan had already fallen into the pool below. His clothes were drenched, and his hair was disheveled. His face was pale, and he was extremely abnormal.
“How can this be? How can this be?!”
Shi Zhaoyuan was at a loss. He looked around and used his spiritual consciousness to scan his surroundings, but he could not find anything. He checked his body, but he could not see any injuries.
This feeling made Shi Zhaoyuan feel like he was about to go crazy.
After six days and three daily kowtows from Yuan Feng, Shi Zhaoyuan’s three souls and seven spirits were already on the verge of dissipating. It was just that he could not discover it.
No! No!
Shi Zhaoyuan stood up and rushed out of the pond. He looked at the Hornless Dragon Essence on the Dao platform. In six days, he had already absorbed more than half of it and changed his body.
However, under the curse of the Nail Head Seven Arrows, even if he absorbed the Hornless Dragon Essence and changed his body, it was useless. He could not even control it.
“There must be a problem, there must be a problem.”
“What’s the problem?”
Shi Zhaoyuan pondered crazily in his mind, “Could it be Nie Fengyun? He has actually already discovered the Hornless Dragon Life Transformation Array? So he tampered with it?”
“No! No!”
Shi Zhaoyuan shook his head, “Nie Fengyun probably doesn’t know that I’m not dead. If he discovered this Hornless Dragon Life Transformation Array, there’s no way I could have kept it. It would have been destroyed by him long ago.”
“Or could it be because there has been a change in the Hornless Dragon Life Transformation Array in the past 300 years?”
“That’s not right.”
Shi Zhaoyuan shook his head again and pondered carefully, “I’ve already checked carefully. There are no changes or abnormalities in the Transformation Array. There’s no problem with the Hornless Dragon Essence.”
“Excluding these possibilities, there’s someone deliberately targeting me. Moreover, they used a method that I don’t know at all.”
“If that’s the case…”
“Who will the enemy be?”
Shi Zhaoyuan fell into deep thought. Images and figures appeared in his mind. These were his past enemies and potential enemies.
However, they were all eliminated by Shi Zhaoyuan.
Three hundred years ago, Shi Zhaoyuan had already ‘died’. Now that Shi Zhaoyuan had returned to life, it was unknown if his old friends and enemies were still alive.
Even if he was still alive, it was also impossible for them to deal with Shi Zhaoyuan in such a timely manner.
“Could it be them…”
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Shi Zhaoyuan’s mind. He remembered the elders and disciples of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect who were guarding Heaven Origin City.
This made him feel enlightened.
“That’s right.”
Shi Zhaoyuan stood up. His eyes flickered as if they had broken through the layers of fog, “After we broke into Heaven Origin City, because I was in a hurry to find the Hornless Dragon Life Transformation Array, I did not pay much attention to the elders and disciples of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect and directly came to the City Lord Manor.”
“In the chaotic battle, there must be elders and disciples of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect who fled.”
“The Heaven Enlightenment Sect is one of the four great sects of the Southern Region. Moreover, it’s called the head of the righteous path. The disciples and elders of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect definitely possess methods and spells that I don’t know of.”
“Although I really don’t know what technique it is, I can’t completely rule out the possibility that they can’t injure me.”
There was no hesitation.
Swish!
Shi Zhaoyuan directly rushed out of the City Lord Manor’s underground space and arrived outside. His figure rose into the air and stood above the City Lord Manor, looking down at his surroundings.
“Greetings, Cult Master.”
“Cult Master’s lifespan is as long as the heavens.”
“The Moon Praying Divine Cult is invincible. If you worship the moon, you will see eternal life.”
In the surroundings, many members of the Moon Praying Cult knelt down.
They had fanatical expressions.
They were like the most loyal believers.
Shi Zhaoyuan was indeed quite skilled at bewitching people.
“Bai Meng.” Shi Zhaoyuan shouted.
“Cult Master.”
Swish!
Immediately, a figure tore through the sky and stood in front of Shi Zhaoyuan. He wore white clothes and had a handsome appearance, like a scholar that was familiar with reading books.
“Have you found those Heaven Enlightenment Sect elders and disciples who fled?” Shi Zhaoyuan asked in a low voice.
“Not yet.” Bai Meng shook his head, “But there are already clues. All kinds of traces and signs indicate that they are definitely hidden in the Heaven Origin Mountain Range.”
“But we can’t confirm the exact location.”
“Continue searching!”
Shi Zhaoyuan shouted in a deep voice, “No matter what methods you use, you have to find them.”
“Yes.”
Bai Meng did not quite understand.
Previously, the Cult Master was not too concerned about the elders and disciples of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect, but now, he suddenly became so concerned. Bai Meng was momentarily unable to understand.
It was fine if he did not understand.
He only needed to follow the Cult Master’s instructions.
“At the moment before his death, his instincts cleared his mind, allowing him to detect a trace of the cause.”
Qi Ming took in Shi Zhaoyuan’s various performances. Under such circumstances, Shi Zhaoyuan was able to grasp this chance of survival. It indeed made Qi Ming look at him in a different light.
Heaven Origin Mountain Range.
In the place where Yuan Feng and the others were hiding, Moon Praying Cult members had already approached and even discovered some abnormalities. However, before they could return and send the news, they had already been killed by Lei Qihai and the others, their corpses destroyed.
“We can’t hide for long.” Lei Qihai said in a low voice.
“There’s only one day left tomorrow.”
Yuan Feng took a deep breath, her beautiful eyes flickering. Although she looked haggard, her gaze was very bright, “At that time, everything will be dealt with.”
The night passed.
On the seventh day, in the morning.
Yuan Feng moved in accordance to the astral winds, forming talismans that burned as she kowtowed towards the straw doll.
Buzz!!!
Somehow, Yuan Feng sensed an invisible force that had already acted on the straw doll. In her eyes, this straw doll had already obtained life.
“It’s about to succeed.”
Yuan Feng’s eyes lit up even more.
