Chapter 275: Game of Heaven, Encounter with Tyrant Turtle [5K]
"So strong."
Seeing Prince Black Flame retreating, Ye Linyuan couldn't help but take a deep breath slowly, a hint of fear in his eyes.
One has to admit that Prince Black Flame is truly powerful. He is able to unleash the full might of a rare magic weapon, and even if it requires a certain amount of strength to build up, it is still amazing.
After practicing for thousands of years in his previous and current lives, Ye Linyuan roughly understood that even though they were both at the Great Perfection of the Golden Elixir, there was often a huge gap in strength between them.
According to the classification of combat power, it can be roughly divided into four levels: ordinary, strong, top, and half-step fake infant.
The most common level among them is the ordinary golden elixir great perfection combat power. For example, Chu Nanming is at this level of strength.
The second level is the strong ones who have reached the great perfection of the Golden Core, such as the Black Water Mystic Snake who was crowned king in battle. Once its cultivation reaches the great perfection of the Golden Core, it should be able to suppress Chu Nanming head-on in battle.
The third level belongs to the top combat power among the Jindan Daquan. The strong people at this level are transcendent in the Jindan realm, and can fight two ordinary Jindan Daquan people alone.
In fact, under normal circumstances, there is not much difference between them and the general Jindan Daquan. At most, they can be suppressed but it is difficult to kill them.
However, this kind of person can often unleash means at the fake infant level, such as using rare third-tier magic weapons, or the burst of forbidden techniques, to deliver an attack comparable to that of a fake infant.
However, because the power of blood or the means of explosion are not durable enough, they can only exert this power under extreme explosion conditions.
Prince Black Flame belongs to this level. His normal combat power is actually that of an ordinary Golden Core Great Perfection. With the help of rare magic weapons, he is considered a strong man among the Golden Core Great Perfection.
However, he was able to briefly fuse the two kinds of royal blood in his body, temporarily unleashing a blood force comparable to that of a pure-blooded spirit of heaven and earth, and then unleash the ultimate power of a rare third-tier magic weapon.
However, because he did not have complete control over the blood in his body, the two royal bloods of water and fire would produce repulsion, so each of his outbursts was very short, so he could only use it as a trump card.
The fourth level, which enables the golden elixir to be invincible in all directions, is generally called the invincible golden elixir.
Strong people at this level often possess extremely strong bloodlines or quasi-great magical powers, so they can exert methods comparable to those of a fake infant for a relatively long time.
For example, Meng Nanfeng and the Prince of Black Prison, the former possesses quasi-great magical powers, while the latter, relying on the bloodline of the true spirits of heaven and earth, can unleash the full power of a third-order rare magic weapon.
It can be said that the peak combat power of the two is enough to barely fight against the Fake Infant Ancestor, but because the thickness and quality of their magic power are not as good as the Fake Infant Ancestor, they can only be regarded as half of the Fake Infant's combat power.
The only one who can be said to have the true combat power of a fake infant is Ye Linyuan in his previous life.
In his previous life, Ye Linyuan was actually at the fourth level, or he was half a step away from the fifth level.
Because at that time Ye Linyuan's normal combat power was comparable to that of a fake infant, and his extreme burst could even make the Yuanying True Lord feel fatally threatened, but his ability to protect himself was too weak.
If he fails to kill the Fake Infant Ancestor in a short period of time, or his sneak attack fails and is discovered by the other party, then he will have no way out.
It was simply because his explosive power was too strong, strong enough to make Yuanying Zhenjun feel fearful, so he was considered to have surpassed the fourth level by half a step.
Ye Linyuan's strength in this life is still far from enough. Although he now has the spiritual power of a false infant level and two sets of formations comparable to rare magic weapons, his cultivation and realm are still insufficient.
Because of his insufficient cultivation level and the insufficient quality of his magic power, Ye Linyuan's Wanhua Sword Technique and two sets of formations are temporarily unable to unleash combat power comparable to that of the fake infant.
However, through the false infant level's soul and powerful magic power, Ye Linyuan was able to forcibly merge the Xuanyuan Zhenhai Flag and the Tiangang Leijiao Formation for a short period of time, and was also able to exert means comparable to those of a false infant level.
Therefore, Ye Linyuan’s current combat power should also belong to the third level, which is the top golden elixir great perfection combat power.
Ye Linyuan was already very satisfied with this. The top Jindan Dayuan combat power allowed him to have the means to kill the Jindan Dayuan head-on. This was second only to the Jindan Dayuan True Spirit of Heaven and Earth.
However, his current cultivation level has only just entered the late stage of the Golden Core, and he has not yet refined the third-order rare sword embryo.
If he could refine a rare third-order sword embryo and raise his cultivation to the golden elixir great perfection realm, his strength in this life would surely surpass that of his previous life.
"call--"
After confirming that Prince Black Flame had escaped, Ye Linyuan slowly exhaled.
He knew very well that although both sides were at the third level of combat power, Prince Black Flame's magic power and healing ability were not as good as his own. If the other side really fought to the death, Prince Black Flame would definitely be the one to die in the end.
But if Prince Black Flame dies here, it may not be good news for Ye Linyuan.
After all, Prince Black Flame is the legitimate son of Black Abyss Dragon Emperor. If Black Abyss Dragon Palace is completely enraged and is willing to wake up the true spirit of heaven and earth to attack the Seven Domain Alliance, then Ye Linyuan may not be able to save his life.
Although this possibility is not great, because once the Black Abyss Dragon Palace does this, as the True Spirit of Heaven and Earth awakens, all the plans of the entire Black Abyss Dragon Palace will be in vain.
After all, a middle-stage Nascent Soul cultivator is already the overlord in Cang Ling Sea. The awakening of a middle-stage Nascent Soul cultivator who has been dormant for many years is enough to affect the situation in the eastern region of Cang Ling Sea.
But even so, Ye Linyuan was not willing to take the risk. After all, a single thought of Yuanying Zhenjun was enough to decide the life and death of hundreds of millions of living beings, not to mention this dragon overlord in the middle stage of Yuanying.
For him, it was enough to deal with those opponents in this battle, and there was no need to fight to the death with Prince Black Flame.
At this moment, Ye Linyuan withdrew his thoughts, looked calmly at the huge battlefield, with a smile in his eyes.
With Prince Black Flame and his men running away, there was no suspense in this battle anymore.
The Black Dragon Demon King was quite powerful, but facing the siege of the seven sword masters, he was completely surrounded and killed soon.
Liu Changge was a great man of his generation, but facing the seven late Jindan puppets and Ye Xuqiu's covetous eyes, he finally reached a dead end.
"Hahahaha, God is really going to kill me."
At this time, Liu Changge looked around and finally let out a miserable laugh.
Ye Linyuan walked over, a hint of emotion in his eyes. He understood Liu Changge's path of cultivation.
This Liu Changge is a person of Wood Heaven spiritual root. He was chosen as the only true successor of the family since he was young. He is also the person with the greatest hope of reaching the Nascent Soul stage in the Liu family in the past thousand years.
In order to support Liu Changge, the Liu family provided him with the best conditions for cultivation.
Liu Changge was also very competitive. Not only did he cultivate a superior Taoist foundation, he also cultivated pseudo-supernatural powers in one go. Finally, at the age of over a hundred, he cultivated a superior golden elixir.
After that, he received the Taoist wisdom from the old clan leader before his death, and broke through the late stage of Golden Core at the age of just three hundred, and cultivated to the eighth level of Golden Core before the age of four hundred.
He has reached the eighth level of the Golden Core Realm at such a young age, and with the longevity blessing of the Willow Catkins in the Wind ancient scroll, he will have at least another 800 years to live in the future.
Being so young, Liu Changge really has a promising future. Even if he does not follow the path of fellow practitioners, there is a certain possibility that he can cultivate to the level of false infant or even Nascent Soul.
Unfortunately, his fellow enemy is Chu Lingxi, and behind this fellow enemy is Ye Linyuan, a genius with a Nine-Pattern Golden Elixir.
He was worried that as time went by, Ye Linyuan would become stronger and stronger, and he would eventually fall into the hands of Chu Lingxi.
Therefore, Liu Changge participated in the planning to kill Ye Linyuan and Chu Lingxi several times, just for his own chance of becoming a god. Unfortunately, all his plans failed in the end.
It’s not that he didn’t plan well enough, nor that his fighting ability was weak, but that he met an invincible opponent like Ye Linyuan.
You know, this time he has made sufficient preparations to completely eliminate future troubles.
He searched everywhere for the enemies of the Ye family, and found Taoist Canglan and Taohua Sanren, two late-stage Jindan masters. He even joined forces with the demon clan and invited Prince Heiyan, a top-notch Jindan master.
With such a thorough layout, let alone killing a newly promoted late Jindan, even killing a Jindan Great Perfection is enough.
But how could he have imagined that Ye Linyuan actually had such terrifying strength and potential, and the methods he displayed were even slightly better than those of Prince Black Flame.
"Your defeat today is not due to the fault of war, nor is it due to lack of planning."
"But when the tide turns, no matter how hard you try, you are just like a shackle."
Ye Linyuan spoke calmly, then looked at Liu Changge and said, "Since you are a hero of your generation, I can allow your Liu family's inheritance to continue. After a hundred years, the new members of the family can specialize in other superior skills."
Upon hearing this, Liu Changge immediately smiled.
But he bowed to Ye Linyuan, then said with a wry smile: "Thank you very much, fellow Daoist, but fellow Daoist, please don't give me the superior skills."
"Practicing superior skills will inevitably lead to the path of swallowing. This is an evil path with no way back. Once my Liu family embarks on this path, it will sooner or later end up with the destruction of the entire clan."
Having said this, Liu Changge suddenly drew his sword and committed suicide, and eventually turned into a Taoist in the vast heaven and earth.
At the same time, the battle on the other side had also ended. The three major families and the demon clan's golden elixirs all bowed their heads, and Zhou Yuwan had already been comprehending Taohua Sanren's Taoism.
Seeing this, Ye Linyuan flicked his sleeves and urged the formation to fall, covering the place where Taoist Canglan fell, pretending to devour the Dao essence in it. After a while, he walked out of the battle and said calmly: "It's a pity that it took a while, and the Dao essence dissipated a lot."
The Desolate Sword Master and the others came over and said with a smile, "Thanks to you, fellow Daoist. If it weren't for your help, I'm afraid we would be in danger of being wiped out."
Ye Linyuan shook his head, and then said: "Prince Black Flame came for me, and you have also suffered an unprovoked disaster."
"Fortunately, now that we have won a great victory, you can also exchange for a batch of great opportunities."
Upon hearing this, everyone present couldn't help but smile.
In this battle, they killed three demon kings in the late Jindan stage and more than a dozen demon kings in the early and middle Jindan stages.
In addition, there were more than a dozen human Jindan who defected to the demon clan, including three humans in the late Jindan stage. The harvest could be said to be extremely huge.
Moreover, even if Ye Linyuan took away most of the treasures they had obtained, they could still exchange the merits they had gained in the war for a batch of rare resources, which might be enough to exchange for one or two lower-level opportunities to form a baby.
If it is not exchanged for the opportunity to form a baby, this military achievement can at least be exchanged for a batch of high-quality Bu Tian Pills, which is also enough for the seven sword masters to have the opportunity to break through to the late Jin Dan realm.
Ye Linyuan also understood this, so he said, "I will not participate in the distribution of war merits. I, the Ye family, will have priority in choosing the captured treasures. How do you think?"
"can."
Everyone smiled. Ye Linyuan didn't need any military merits, so the rest would be divided equally among them.
Next, everyone quickly divided the seized treasures into two parts, and Ye Linyuan and the Ye family received 90% of them.
Including the corpses of three demon kings in the late Jindan stage, the corpses of eighteen black dragon Taoist soldiers, as well as all their magic weapons and some resources.
There are many other materials as well, including Taohua Sanren's top-grade magic weapon, the Peach Blossom Jade Bottle, Liu Changge's life-saving magic weapon, the Willow Leaf Ancient Sword, and Canglan Taoist's set of third-level mid-grade formation equipment.
The rest of the materials, formation equipment, and cultivation resources were given to the Tianxing Sword Sect and others.
Although the Jindan cultivators from the Tianxing Sword Sect and other sects received a smaller share, they were still very satisfied. After all, the merits gained from this war were enough to make them rich.
Moreover, in this battle, the Ye family's immortal clan indeed made the greatest contribution.
After winning the war, Ye Linyuan stayed in the Moyuan Islands for a few days, personally rearranged the formation for them, and told them to rest here for a while.
Ye Linyuan was well-versed in military books and knew that if an army advanced too quickly and was isolated and deep in enemy territory, it would be in danger of being surrounded and eaten by the enemy's concentrated forces.
In fact, the reason they were ambushed by the demon tribe this time was because they were alone and advanced too fast, causing their teammates around them to fail to keep up.
Otherwise, according to the arrangement of the Five Elements Taoist Sect, with dozens of fleets advancing in unison, the distance between the two wings and the nearest friendly forces should not be more than 200,000 miles.
Therefore, he repeatedly reminded everyone that they must wait until the friendly forces on both wings followed up and confirmed that there were other fleets to quickly support them if they were attacked before they could continue to advance into the deep sea.
Back to the topic, after arranging all this, he went to the Five Elements Sea alone.
This time he flew to the Tiangang Region, looked around the entire feng shui map and the vast sea area, and a hint of wonder appeared in his eyes.
Judging from the geomancy map, the coalition forces of the Five Elements Sea and the deep-sea monsters were unstoppable and had captured cities and strongholds one after another in recent years.
At this rate, we could probably drive the demon army back to the South China Sea completely within twenty years at the latest.
But after Ye Linyuan calculated again and again, he found that the hexagram was very strange, just like a bamboo sword that was stabbed out and then broke, and in the end it seemed that there were signs of winning first and then losing.
Unfortunately, the other party seemed to have an extremely skilled master of celestial secrets who used extremely high-level celestial secret techniques to confuse the heavenly secrets.
Therefore, even with Ye Linyuan's current attainments in divine knowledge, it is difficult to see how the coalition forces were ultimately defeated.
"Weird."
Ye Linyuan whispered, but his expression was solemn.
He couldn't figure out how they were defeated, and the information he figured out was very vague, so even if he reminded the Five Elements Taoist Sect, it would probably be of little use.
So he thought about it and finally sent an anonymous letter to the Five Elements Taoist Sect. The content of the letter only contained one hexagram - ominous.
As for whether the Five Elements Taoist Sect believes in his hexagrams, that is up to the Five Elements Taoist Sect itself.
With Ye Linyuan's current level of cultivation, being able to send this hexagram is already the limit. If he interferes too much, he will definitely clash with the opponent's master of divination.
Although Ye Linyuan's secret art of heaven is comparable to the fourth-grade mid-level one with the enhancement of the tortoise shell of truth, his cultivation is still too low, and it would be unwise to confront it rashly.
“I hope they will listen to me.”
After sending the letter, Ye Linyuan couldn't help but whisper in his heart.
He hoped that the Five Elements Taoist Sect would be alert, otherwise if the situation really collapsed, the only thing he could do was to help Ye Xuqiu and others find a glimmer of hope when the disaster struck.
"We cannot rely on the Five Elements Sect's vigilance for our fate."
"What I can do now is to make arrangements in advance so that Ye Xuqiu and the others can have a chance of survival."
Ye Linyuan pondered in his heart, and then continued to use divination, using the True Spirit Turtle Shell to calculate the situation on the entire front battlefield.
I don’t know how long it took, but he seemed to see something, and his eyes couldn’t help but look towards the direction of Renshui Sect, with a trace of solemnity in his eyes.
"Then Meng Nanfeng's fate actually includes a fatal disaster?"
"It seems that the Dragon Clan also has a master who is planning to kill the future Yuanying Overlord of the Human Clan in the cradle in advance."
Ye Linyuan pondered in his heart. Since he had figured out the opponent's plan, he would naturally find a way to break it.
But is Meng Nanfeng worth the price he pays to fight with the fourth-rank dragon master?
Ye Linyuan pondered in his heart, then picked up the biographical file about Meng Nanfeng. After reading it, he nodded slightly.
Meng Nanfeng's life trajectory is clear. He has always been clear about gratitude and resentment, and he always repays those who have done him a favor.
It is said that when Meng Nanfeng was young, his village was attacked by monsters. After his parents died, he fled to another place. When he was about to starve to death, he was given a meal by an old woman.
Later, because of this meal, Meng Nanfeng protected the old woman's descendants for hundreds of years and even trained two Jindan monks. It can be said that he did his best.
There are more than one similar cases. Those who have taken care of Meng Nanfeng over the years have basically received feedback from Meng Nanfeng.
"This Meng Nanfeng has good character. He only has four spiritual roots and was born as a menial disciple. He has been able to cultivate to this level. It can be seen that his understanding is probably not much worse than mine in my previous life."
“If I can lend a hand and help him survive this catastrophe, maybe I’ll have an ally in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul stage in the future.”
Ye Linyuan whispered slowly, and finally made a decision in his heart.
He withdrew his thoughts and continued to head towards the Seven Domain Alliance. Unknowingly, he returned to the Five Elements Sea.
When approaching the Seven Domain Alliance, Ye Linyuan discovered a moving island in the distance.
He flew over with some curiosity, only to find that under the island was a giant turtle that was tens of miles in size.
"Why are you blocking my way, fellow Taoist?"
The old turtle spoke slowly and looked at Ye Linyuan with some fear, but had no intention of taking action.
"Turtle Tyrant?"
Ye Linyuan's eyes moved slightly, and suddenly a hint of emotion appeared on his face.
The giant turtle in front of him was a giant tortoise with the bloodline of Ba Xia, and was also a top-notch true spirit descendant of the eighth level of the Golden Elixir.
There have long been rumors that there was a tyrannical turtle carrying an island outside the Seven Domain Alliance. At that time, the Jindan of the Seven Domain Alliance regarded it as a great terror.
Ye Linyuan had never had the chance to encounter it, but he never expected that now that he had seen it with his own eyes, he could already look at it calmly.
Even without him making a move, just standing there made the tyrant turtle, which was once regarded as a great terror, feel as if it was facing a formidable enemy.
