Other small and medium-sized sects were also shocked when they heard about this. They withdrew their capital and evacuated the thousands of miles of land centered on Kaijiang Town, leaving it to the Tianfu Sect and other three small sects.
For a time, the Tianfu Sect, Jinxiashan Sect and other sects were proud, and the monks within the sects were all extremely happy.
The head elder felt that the previous offerings to Chen Yun were not in vain, and the power of the three sects is expected to double within a hundred years.
The Dragon-Slaying Conference held by the top sect in Huayun Province, "Nanhaimen", opened as scheduled.
In just a few days, more than two hundred cultivators above the Jindan stage gathered together, including nearly ten Yuanying stage masters.
Under the organization of the Nanhai Gate, they were divided into several groups and launched a comprehensive sweep of the surrounding waters in search of any traces of the poisonous dragon.
During this period, many low-level monsters were discovered and eliminated one by one, which boosted the morale of the monks, as if victory was in sight.
However, these cunning poisonous dragons were extremely clever. Once they sensed danger, they would hide themselves, so the monks were unable to find their hiding places despite months of efforts.
Some monks chose to quit because their patience ran out.
A month later, there were less than a hundred cultivators still searching for the poisonous dragon on the sea. Even the number of Nascent Soul cultivators had decreased by several. Only seven people, led by Nanhaimen, remained.
As the number of manpower was drastically reduced, the poisonous dragons smelled an opportunity and began to attack frequently, not only targeting lone monks, but even an eighth-level blue dragon leading a group of dragons.
Launched a fierce attack on the smaller group of monks.
Although each team is led by a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, the eighth-level blue dragon relies on its extraordinary water escape technique.
After each attack, it quickly hides on the seabed, making it difficult for pursuers to continue.
Not only was the beast not injured, it also devoured several Jindan stage cultivators.
This incident caused the remaining monks to panic, and the Nanhai Gate was caught in a dilemma. They had no choice but to integrate multiple forces before they dared to continue sending fleets out to sea.
One day, a team of more than ten monks were led by a Nascent Soul stage monk.
They flew cautiously over the sea, spreading their spiritual awareness to search for any unusual movements around them, especially in the direction of the sea, which was the area they focused their attention on.
In this team, Chen Yun transformed into a pale middle-aged monk, flying slowly at the end of the team.
He seemed calm on the surface, but he was actually very depressed.
When the Dragon Slaying Conference was first held, Chen Yun sneaked in as a Jindan stage cultivator, intending to fish in troubled waters, but he never expected that he still has gained nothing.
In the past few months, the team of cultivators that Chen Yun was in had not encountered any sneak attacks from evil dragons, and he felt helpless and confused about this.
To the west of Qiongying Island, the vast sea area of tens of thousands of miles is now becoming a place of search by everyone.
Recently, a group of monks here were attacked by an eighth-level blue dragon, even though they knew that the dragon was extremely cunning.
As it was expected that the enemy would not stay here for long to be hunted down, Nanhaimen still sent a team of monks to search again, trying to find unexpected clues.
Chen Yun knew very well that he must not act rashly in front of everyone, so as not to arouse the suspicion of the Yuanying stage cultivator leading the team.
Therefore, he only used his divine consciousness to cover the sea surface within a radius of ten miles, which was enough to perceive the movements of the evil dragon and prevent sneak attacks.
More than a dozen monks flew away at a rapid speed. Even though the sea was vast, they had searched half of the area as planned in more than half a day. However, the result was as expected, nothing was found.
"What is that?" A cultivator in front suddenly exclaimed. Chen Yun, who was searching intently, looked up and saw a gray demonic cloud of several acres in size rising from the horizon ahead, slowly approaching this side.
In a silent mountain forest, a group of monks gathered together, their eyes fixed on the front.
Suddenly, a monk shouted in surprise: "Great, there must be a high-level monster here!"
There was a sudden commotion in the crowd.
The other monk seemed calmer. He frowned slightly and said doubtfully:
"Something's wrong. Normally, those evil dragons would flee immediately upon seeing us. Why are they approaching us today? Is there some trick going on?"
The team was led by a middle-aged man in golden clothes. He was a Nascent Soul cultivator.
After hearing the conversation between the two, his brows furrowed and his eyes subconsciously swept around.
As a result, his face turned pale in an instant, and he shouted hurriedly:
"Be careful! There are monsters flying towards us from other directions!"
After hearing this, all the monks were shocked and reacted quickly.
They all took out their magic weapons and prepared for battle.
At the same time, they also looked around, trying to find potential threats.
However, there was no sign of anything unusual in the distant sky.
Some monks looked at each other, their hearts filled with confusion and uneasiness.
Just when they wanted to ask the middle-aged man, bursts of shrill dragon roars suddenly came from the sky around them.
Then, in the distance, clouds of strange colors appeared.
These evil clouds rolled and tumbled, revealing the body of a dragon covered with hideous scales.
They quickly gathered around them.
Faced with this sudden crisis, a strong sense of urgency surged in the hearts of the monks.
They knew that a fierce battle was about to begin.
In the pervasive mysterious atmosphere, the most eye-catching thing was the two evil clouds that quietly emerged from the east and west sides.
Compared with the demonic clouds in other directions, the scale of these two demonic clouds is several times larger.
It presents two extremely bright colors, deep blue and deep red. The colors are so rich that they seem to attract people's attention.
"How is this possible? There are actually two level eight monsters!"
At such a close distance, the monks present relied on their keen spiritual sense.
In an instant, they sensed the terrifying aura emanating from the monsters in the two demonic clouds, and some people suddenly cried out in shock with a pale face.
When the other monks heard this, their faces turned pale as paper, and their eyes revealed endless panic.
Obviously, this group of evil dragons used some unknown means to summon another level eight dragon of the same kind.
At this moment, they no longer seemed satisfied with attacking the monks present one by one, but were planning to annihilate the entire group of monks.
The original relationship between host and guest was reversed in an instant.
"Why panic? Send a sound transmission note to other groups for help, and split up to meet the enemy immediately. You must know that if these evil dragons gather in one place to stir up trouble, their power will be even stronger."
"Don't even think about escaping separately. These evil dragons are proficient in water escape techniques. If we disperse, we will only be defeated one by one." The man in the Nascent Soul stage remained calm and composed at this critical moment.
He just shouted loudly and then gave orders loudly.
Hearing this, the Jindan stage cultivators present felt a little relieved.
Suddenly, several people quickly released several sound transmission notes, which turned into streams of light and flew straight into the sky.
Summary Information
The team of monks faced two evil dragons, one level eight and several level seven evil dragons.
Most cultivators have some confidence in fighting a level seven evil dragon alone, but feel uneasy about two people joining forces to deal with a level eight evil dragon.
The man in the Nascent Soul stage proposed that the three of them join forces to fight against the eighth-level evil dragon, and finally a seemingly ordinary cultivator showed great strength and became the key force in the battle.
In the emergency situation facing two evil dragons, the team decided to divide the work and cooperate.
A cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage with high cultivation level will fight against one of the level eight evil dragons alone, while the rest of the members will be responsible for dispersing and restraining the remaining level seven evil dragons.
Although most cultivators have some confidence in fighting a level 7 evil dragon alone, they are worried about challenging a more powerful level 8 evil dragon with just two people.
Taking this into consideration, the Nascent Soul cultivator decisively added a team member to join the battle to ensure that the actions of the eighth-level evil dragon could be effectively delayed.
At this moment, an unexpected scene occurred.
A cultivator with ordinary appearance suddenly burst out with astonishing power. His momentum soared into the sky and turned into a dazzling green light pointing directly in the direction of the fire cloud.
It turns out that this inconspicuous fellow is actually a mid-Nascent Soul master who hides his true strength!
This discovery surprised everyone and greatly boosted morale.
The big man in the Nascent Soul stage was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed.
He secretly wondered, could it be that the Nanhai Sect had sensed some kind of crisis and therefore deliberately arranged another Nascent Soul cultivator in the team?
However, seeing that the demonic cloud was about to surround him, the big man had no time to think. He turned around and turned into a ball of blue light, heading towards the blue demonic cloud on the other side.
When the other cultivators saw two Nascent Soul cultivators resisting two level eight monsters respectively, their confidence increased. They transformed into various colored lights and flew in different directions, intercepting the monster clouds halfway.
Soon after, bright lights appeared in all directions at the same time, and rumbling sounds continued.
Different from other directions, Chen Yun was in the evil cloud but did not move. His body was wrapped in a layer of light purple ice flames. He was surrounded by a purgatory-like sea of fire, and sizzling sounds were heard from time to time.
On the opposite side, dozens of feet away, a half-human, half-dragon humanoid monster was in a pillar of fire, looking at him coldly.
Although this monster resembles a man, its body is covered with red, crystal-clear scales as big as fists, and it emits wisps of red flames of varying thickness.
"It is indeed a red dragon. It seems this trip is worthwhile." Chen Yun showed his joy.
"You came for me."
The humanoid red fire dragon was stunned for a moment, then a green light flashed in its eyes, and its mouth opened slightly, revealing its snow-white fangs, which made people shudder. At the same time, the surrounding fire pillars rose three points higher, with an astonishing momentum.
Although this dragon looks ferocious, it is actually full of anxiety.
The human cultivator who broke in was in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and possessed a mysterious ice-attributed purple flame.
It was not afraid of the demonic fire that he had cultivated for many years, and instantly destroyed most of its magical powers.
What made the monster even more worried was that although Chen Yun looked calm, he felt a chill in his heart and vaguely felt that a disaster was about to happen.
When Chen Yun arrived here, he heard that only level seven red fire dragons appeared here.
However, with his arrival, the level 7 Red Fire Dragon seemed to lose interest in him. Chen Yun had already cultivated to the formation stage and was not very interested in active killing.
He proposed that if the other party could voluntarily hand over the natal scales on his neck and lead the group of dragons away, he would let him go.
Chen Yun made this suggestion with a smile on his face and in a calm tone.
After hearing Chen Yun's words, the red fire dragon seemed to be enraged and immediately became furious.
It roared, "How dare you be so arrogant? You are just a cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and you dare to ask me for my life scale?"
The natal scales are precious items that dragons are attached to since birth, and the number varies.
As the years passed, these scales were infused with a large amount of their essence and magic power, and their preciousness was almost second only to demon pills.
Once they lose their life scales, their cultivation will immediately be halved, so it is understandable that this red fire dragon would be enraged.
Driven by rage, the dragon rolled over in the pillar of fire, followed by a slight "bang".
The pillar of fire was shaken apart, and a red dragon that was seven or eight feet long and several feet thick suddenly appeared in the flames.
At this moment, it threw aside its previous concerns and only wanted to tear Chen Yun into pieces and turn him into nothingness with the demonic fire.
As soon as the dragon revealed its true form as a monster, it suddenly opened its huge mouth and spewed out a stream of red liquid as hot as lava, heading straight towards Chen Yun.
Facing this scene, Chen Yun raised his eyebrows slightly:
“To be able to cultivate the demonic fire to such a level is indeed extraordinary. But it seems that I must do it myself.”
Before he finished speaking, Chen Yun did not dare to slack off. He raised his hand and patted the back of his head.
Then a snow-white, crystal-clear bead came out of his mouth. It was the refined cold-attribute magic weapon - the Snow Crystal Bead.
Once the bead was released, it expanded rapidly in the wind, became the size of a fist, and shot straight to the opposite side.
At the same time, Chen Yun shouted in a low voice, stretched out his hand and pointed far away, and suddenly a large amount of purple flame emerged from the bead.
It instantly condensed into a purple fire dragon about ten feet long, with a huge snow crystal bead in its mouth.
As soon as the purple dragon was formed, it rushed towards the red fire liquid without hesitation, and collided with it while shaking its head and tail.
Following a sharp "sizzle" sound, the surroundings were suddenly covered by a thick white mist.
In this hazy fog, one could vaguely see a purple dragon spewing purple flames from the round ball in its mouth, forcing a stream of fire to retreat step by step.
When the Red Fire Dragon saw this scene, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, but then a fierce light flashed, and a red light appeared on his body, and he let out a deafening roar.
The whistling sound caused the nearby flames to roll continuously, forming a huge fire wave more than ten feet high, which pressed down towards Chen Yun from both sides with great momentum.
Faced with this sudden attack, Chen Yun sneered, rubbed his hands quickly, and then gently waved them to both sides.
Along with crisp sounds and flashes of purple light, two crystal ice peaks twenty or thirty feet high rose from the ground, blocking the waves of fire on both sides.
At this moment, the fire dragon in the distance suddenly shook and shrank several times to only a few feet in size.
Then, the fire liquid in its mouth stopped spraying, and after a "whoosh" sound, it turned into a red light and shot straight towards Chen Yun.
The red light was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, it crossed a distance of more than twenty feet and came to not far in front of Chen Yun. At the same time, its two claws were raised high, making an attacking posture.
Seeing that the demon fire could not cause any substantial harm to Chen Yun, the dragon decided to use its powerful demon body to directly approach Chen Yun. (End of this chapter)
