Chapter 109: Chapter 109: Taoist Soldier Casting, Ten Directions Demon Clan Chapter 109: Chapter 109: Taoist Soldier Casting, Ten Directions Demon Clan Qingshan County,
A blood-red light column, roughly ten feet thick, pierced through heaven and earth.
Following Chen Yuan’s transformation into the Mountain Lord True Form and his entry, several cries of alarm arose.
Lian Nichang, Fang Qingzhu and a few others dashed to the vicinity of the light column and attempted to rush into it, but they were quickly repelled by a rebounding force, causing them to stumble back repeatedly.
Despite nurous tries, they were unable to enter and were blocked.
For a mont, the group looked up at the sky with a trace of concern on their faces.
At that ti, within the slender black passage, a broken gold-colored eyeball appeared, rolling around.
Following closely behind, Chen Yuan’s voice transmitted from inside.
“Do not worry, it seems that only demons can enter this passage; there’s a strong Demonic Qi inside.”
“This passage looks like it won’t close for a while.
For safety’s sake, could you please cast a spell to conceal it?
I’ll go have a look and be right back!”
“Brother Chen, be careful!”
And then, the golden eyeball disappeared.
Seeing this, Lian Nichang and the others breathed a sigh of relief, then started to cast spells.
Suddenly, petals of pink flowers unfurled beneath Fang Qingzhu’s feet, spiraling up around the light column and then vanishing along with the light column, leaving no trace behind.
Lian Nichang, on the other hand, parted her vermilion lips and exhaled a breath of white mist, which rapidly spread around her, ascending and enveloping the surrounding forest for miles.
Elsewhere, Chen Yuan’s eyes flickered with broken gold, scanning the surroundings.
He stood amidst grey misty forests, with towering trees blocking out the sky, shrouded in a grey mist.
His eyes glittered with broken gold, then his large nostrils flared slightly, and he took a deep breath.
The mist within a dozen ters, like being sucked dry by a large vacuum, coalesced into two arm-thick streams of fog, which Chen Yuan inhaled through his nostrils.
The grey mist that entered his body through the Twelve Story Building boiled violently like water, but soon, as a wisp of golden light rose, the traces of black qi were burnt into nothingness, and strands of white mist were extracted, turning into essence qi that moistened his flesh.
The mist was filled with demonic aura, and there was also a faint essence qi perating it.
To demons, this was a Cave Heaven Blessed Land!
For humans, it was akin to being scorched by intense fire.
But Chen Yuan, with his Demon Body and Golden Core, took to it like a fish to water.
At this mont, the forest was very quiet, not even the sound of an insect could be heard.
In front of him, the golden scale that had co in with him was twinkling with stars.
Chen Yuan’s eyes slightly narrowed, he grasped it in his hand, ready to explore the surroundings.
Before leaving, he first shot a ray of golden light from his Dharma Eye towards the black passage in the void, which seed to smooth it out, erasing the trace of the passage.
Then, the fog in front of him swirled, and his figure vanished from the spot.
Along the way, Chen Yuan skimd the area with his Dharma Eye and quickly noticed sothing unusual about this place.
He found that many mountains contained nurous fierce beast bones, weird and grotesque.
So had been eroded by ti and had fused with the mountains.
He even saw huge stone coffins.
This gave Chen Yuan a strange feeling—what if these mountains were the tombs of demons?
After about ten minutes, Chen Yuan descended from the sky and hovered in front of a sheer cliffside mountain.
Against the backdrop of the broken gold in his eyes, there was a cluster of green treasure light.
His eyes flashed, and he directly shot out a pierce of Magic Eye Golden Light.
With a loud ‘boom,’ a big hole was opened in the belly of the mountain.
Chen Yuan flew straight in, burrowed for about a hundred ters, and the space inside suddenly opened up.
In front of a huge beast bone skull that looked like a cow, with four horns and about a dozen yards long, there was a fist-sized cluster of green tallic luster, mysteriously lustrous like water flowing and dream-like.
Chen Yuan’s gaze fell on the green glow, and with a flash of his body, he punched towards the beast bone skull.
The giant beast bone emitted a deafening clank.
In the cave, the echo trembled, shaking off many rocks.
Chen Yuan was slightly surprised; he didn’t know how long the demon had been dead for, but its bones were so hard.
He rubbed his teeth and continued to pound his fists against the skull.
After about a dozen breaths, the skull finally shattered.
The entire beast bone was also vibrated apart.
And the fist-sized piece of green tal naturally fell into Chen Yuan’s hands.
But the mont Chen Yuan caught the item with his hands, the next second his hand suddenly sank heavily, nearly causing him to beco unsteady.
“So heavy!”
“What is this?”
Chen Yuan held it up as if he were carrying a bucket of water, quickly stopping the downward montum, while his teeth clenched and his eyes brightened.
He grunted quietly, his arm trembling slightly as he slowly lifted the object.
Opening his mouth wide, he unleashed a sword light of unmatched sharpness towards the object.
“Ding!”
A harsh, ear-piercing clang of tal rang out abruptly.
The sword light was shockingly repelled, but the flowing blue-hued tal rely saw its swirling patterns flicker intensely before returning to their original state.
Seeing this, Chen Yuan’s eyes shone even brighter.
The next second, behind his head, a small mountain about a foot in height appeared from his Mud Ball.
This was one of his Tao Seeds.
He directed the Tao Seed to fly above the blue Spirit Gold in his hand, then it began to spin, buzzing and trembling.
Imnse forces from the Tao Seed started grinding against the surface of the blue Spirit Gold.
The normally tranquil blue Spirit Gold now stirred with intense ripples as strands of blue climbed onto the small mountain, resembling magnetic fluid.
However, the process was exceedingly slow.
Yet, upon seeing this, Chen Yuan could finally confirm.
This clump of blue Spirit Gold was indeed the Geng tal desired for the forging of Taoist Soldiers.
According to the records, Geng tal was a unique kind of Spirit Gold nurtured by heaven and earth, distinct from ordinary iron or steel, often requiring special conditions to generate a mystical Tao rhythm, to assimilate with a Tao Seed.
For example, a rock on the summit of a mountain, after enduring thunder strikes for hundreds, if not thousands, of years, may produce Heavenly Thunder Gold, which when forged into a Taoist Soldier, would be incredibly hard and capable of unleashing thunder.
And this Green Gold, being peculiarly heavy, was Chen Yuan’s first thought as an Earth Treasure.
Indeed, it was able to rge with his Mountain-shaped Tao Seed.
Furthermore, the heaviness of this object happened to match his Tao Seed perfectly!
He speculated that this Green Gold appeared inside the Demon Skull because it was the Taoist Soldier of a powerful demon in its lifeti.
As ti passed, the True Intent of the demon was completely worn away by the years, leaving only this clump of Green Gold.
But at this rate, full assimilation would take at least ten days to half a month.
An idea sparked in Chen Yuan’s mind to hasten the process.
In an instant, the Green Gold started to rge with the Tao Seed at a pace visible to the naked eye.
Then, a sudden tremor within the Mud Ball.
A stream of information flowed through his mind.
“Taoist Soldier Forging 1%…..2%…3%”
At this point, the Green Gold had rged by one-third and then stopped.
Chen Yuan quickly summoned his other Mountain-shaped Tao Seeds.
In the end, the fist-sized Green Gold was only sufficient to forge three Mountain shapes.
The progress of the Taoist Soldier’s forging was at one-tenth.
Far from forming a complete Taoist Soldier.
But at this mont, a glint of eagerness appeared in Chen Yuan’s eyes.
If this was indeed a graveyard for demons, with his own Dharma Eye Divine Ability, he could dig through all these demon graves.
Shouldn’t he be able to find quite a few treasures?
With that thought, he flashed and dashed out of the cave.
Imdiately after, the cave started to rumble violently, completely collapsing.
Elsewhere, in the deep southwest border of Shu, within the Ten Thousand Mountains.
Within one of the mountains,
an old man, bent nearly ninety degrees at the waist, skin on his face as parched as tree bark, and eyebrows that nearly touched the ground, hovered in front of a bronze artifact, resembling a Celestial Globe, several ters tall.
It made a clicking sound as it floated and moved slowly.
The outer dial was engraved with various strange and bizarre tadpole-like characters.
At this mont, the old man uttered a soft exclamation, looking at a golden sphere in the center of the Celestial Globe, flashing with a small star point.
“Eh, the secret text is not yet fully ford, how co soone has already gone inside?”
“Which mountain is not abiding by the rules, sending soone in advance?
Didn’t we all agree on the rules?”
The old man’s voice was very somber, shaking the whole mountain.
He thought about opening the prohibition to investigate, but then he reconsidered, as he was rely a guardian of graves, and the ti to open was approaching.
“Besides, this Tao Fruit Conference is related to the ergence of those major Demons Clans, let it be.”
The old man shook his head, then floated up, shooting two beams of black light from his hands towards the Celestial Globe.
Suddenly, the Celestial Globe started to churn and rumble, the outer dials spinning faster, and the little golden tadpole characters lit up with blinding golden light.
“Click click click”
The noise of so prohibition being opened thundered.
After about a dozen breaths, the Celestial Globe ceased to rotate.
The next second, various star points suddenly lit up on the golden sphere.
Deep within the Ten Thousand Mountains, golden beams of light shot towards the sky, with demons howling as they rushed into them.
