The three-headed Nether Serpent's attack was blocked by Azure Sparrow.
Zhang Ling also flashed, using a movement technique to leave the spot, instantly arriving on the Xuan Turtle's back.
"Are you alright?" Azure Sparrow transmitted a message.
Zhang Ling shook his head, then saw the three-headed Nether Serpent and the red-clad female cultivator opposite him.
The three-headed Nether Serpent's single eyes on each of its three heads stared fixedly at him, revealing an unkind gaze.
The monster flicked its tail, stirring up a large wave of water, seemingly about to attack again.
The red-clad woman, on the other hand, had a calm expression, unreadable, but her gaze also fell on Zhang Ling.
Zhang Ling immediately sensed a powerful divine sense sweeping over him, giving him the feeling of being seen through.
Compared to the first time he met the red-clad female cultivator a few days ago, the pressure from the red-clad woman was now several times stronger.
The red-clad woman suddenly chuckled and looked at Azure Sparrow.
"You have a close relationship with this human. This Queen can sense that this human and this turtle demon have somewhat similar nascent spirit auras. Could it be an incarnation similar to a soul division technique?"
Zhang Ling's face darkened. This person seemed to have seen through the connection between him and the Xuan Turtle.
Naturally, he didn't reply. Azure Sparrow flapped its wings, and a layer of scorching blue-white flames swirled around it, erupting with a wave of spiritual pressure.
"Rakshasa, I have helped you complete the seal. Now it's time for you to fulfill your promise and tell me how to separate the space nodes on the Star Moon Disk."
"This Queen will not break her promise, but before that, there is still a treasure on this human's body that belongs to me." Rakshasa snorted and looked at Zhang Ling again. A treasure appeared in a flash of red light in her hand.
Seeing this, Zhang Ling immediately became more vigilant, activating the Yellow Luo Umbrella and Spirit Light Shield to protect his whole body.
He saw that the red light in Rakshasa Red Lotus's hand contained an ancient bronze lamp.
Zhang Ling recognized the ancient lamp at a glance. It was exactly the same as the broken ancient lamp in his hand.
He immediately remembered that when he fought against the red umbrella youth before, that person said that the bronze ancient lamp was a treasure of the Underworld King.
Red Lotus gently blew, and the ancient bronze lamp immediately ignited a layer of blood-red flame.
This scene stunned Zhang Ling for a moment. The bronze ancient lamp in his hand required his blood essence to ignite, but in this woman's hand, it was ignited so easily, and the emitted flame was blood-red.
Could it be a different treasure? I wonder if it also has the power of divine soul.
The blood-red flame swayed in the wind, and Zhang Ling immediately felt the bronze ancient lamp in his sleeve fly out directly, no longer under his control, turning into a blue light and falling into Rakshasa's hand.
Zhang Ling's face was a little unsightly. This treasure had been with him for a long time and had made many contributions. Now that it fell into the hands of others, his heart was filled with mixed feelings, with an impulse to snatch it back.
But this thought was instantly suppressed by him. He was no match for the three-headed Nether Serpent and this woman at all.
Even Azure Sparrow at this time gave him a weaker feeling than the red-clad female cultivator.
"This treasure is so broken. It seems that it was hit by the Soul-Seizing Divine Light shot out by True Yang Immortal back then. What a pity." Red Lotus pointed at the broken bronze ancient lamp, and a faint green flame lit up on the bronze ancient lamp. But after just one glance, the woman sighed in disappointment and, with a flick of her hand, the broken ancient lamp fell in front of Zhang Ling again.
"Senior, what do you mean by this?"
"The divine essence in this treasure has dissipated, and it is impossible to repair it. It is of no great use to me. Moreover, it has been stained with a lot of your blood essence. Since you have this opportunity to obtain this Divine Essence Lamp, then take good care of it." Red Lotus explained casually, and her gaze fell on Azure Sparrow again. "Take out the Star Moon Disk."
Azure Sparrow hesitated slightly, then nodded, and spat out a round disk. Zhang Ling glanced at it. It was exactly the treasure that the Yan Sect Master had thrown out before.
What kind of treasure is this that Azure Sparrow and this red-clad woman care so much about? Zhang Ling thought in his heart.
Then, he saw Red Lotus slightly open her apricot mouth, seemingly saying something, but not a single sound was heard. Obviously, she used a sound transmission technique.
After the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, Azure Sparrow cried out excitedly, "So that's how it is."
Azure Sparrow's body flickered with spiritual light, and it spat out团团 spiritual power, hitting the round disk.
Instantly, the round disk floated in the air and quickly rotated. The star patterns carved on it lit up with strange spiritual light. A piece of dark light emerged from it.
"Give me some ten-thousand-year spiritual liquid. I want to mobilize the heaven and earth vitality to activate the Star Moon Disk." At this time, Azure Sparrow transmitted a message to Zhang Ling again.
Zhang Ling did not hesitate and immediately threw out a colorful jade bottle containing ten-thousand-year spiritual liquid. At the same time, he controlled the Xuan Turtle to retreat backward.
In fact, the Xuan Turtle also carried a small bottle of ten-thousand-year spiritual liquid.
He obtained a lot of ten-thousand-year spiritual liquid from the Bewildering God Palace, filling a large jade bottle and three small jade bottles. He gave one small jade bottle to Dongfang Ya, and he still had one large jade bottle and two small jade bottles.
But at this moment, the small bottle of ten-thousand-year spiritual liquid on the Xuan Turtle's body had already been used up. It was not used by the Xuan Turtle, but by Azure Sparrow.
Through mental connection, he had already sensed from the Second Nascent Soul's memory the great battle between Azure Sparrow and this Rakshasa and the three-headed Nether Serpent.
Azure Sparrow's body at this moment was actually just an incarnation condensed from ten-thousand-year spiritual liquid plus nascent spirit.
As for why the two sides seemed to maintain peace now, it was still related to the strange eyeball they saw in that independent space before.
The huge eyeball seemed to be some kind of Underworld King Eye, which Rakshasa seemed to be very afraid of, so the current situation appeared.
At the same time, what surprised Zhang Ling was that although the Xuan Turtle looked seriously injured, its cultivation had broken through from the eighth rank to the ninth rank.
Why did it suddenly break through? Of course, it had a lot to do with Azure Sparrow. This guy had launched several strong attacks using the Xuan Turtle's body in the battle.
The Xuan Turtle's injuries were also caused by Azure Sparrow's possession.
Although the Xuan Turtle had a regenerative body, its injuries had not improved much until now. Zhang Ling sensed that the Xuan Turtle was recovering very slowly and seemed to have lost a lot of its origin.
For a time, he didn't know whether to be happy or worried. The Xuan Turtle's breakthrough was naturally a great thing, but it was also seriously injured.
Of course, he wouldn't have any dissatisfaction with Azure Sparrow about this.
While Zhang Ling watched Azure Sparrow cast spells, he was thinking wildly. Suddenly, something leaned over beside him and bumped into him, almost knocking him over.
Turning his head, he saw that it was the Gold Devouring Beast transformed into a golden ball. From the memory of the Second Nascent Soul, he also learned that this beast had played an important role in Azure Sparrow's battle.
The Gold Devouring Beast grunted at him a few times, looking very dissatisfied.
Zhang Ling frowned slightly, then remembered something and quickly waved his hand, taking out a few gold-black hard spiritual grasses.
The Gold Devouring Beast immediately became excited. The two red dot-like eyes on the golden ball emitted red light, and it grinned, directly swallowing the few gold stone grasses. It made a clattering chewing sound in its mouth as gold and iron collided.
Then it called out to him again, seeming to still be hungry.
Zhang Ling took out a dozen more gold stone grasses to appease the Gold Devouring Beast.
At the same time, Azure Sparrow let out a long cry, and a layer of five-colored spiritual light flowed around its body. As its wings waved, these spiritual lights turned into mysterious five-colored runes and rushed into the Star Moon Disk.
The black light released by this treasure immediately spread rapidly to the surroundings. In the blink of an eye, it covered the entire sky.
Zhang Ling looked at this scene in surprise, releasing his divine sense power and discovering that hundreds of miles of area were covered by darkness.
However, looking up, he could see many stars flashing in the black light, as if it had suddenly turned into night. But as his divine sense probed into it, it was immediately swallowed by the darkness.
This star map was like a mirage, like a real night sky, or like a phantom. Although divine sense would be swallowed when entering it and could not see clearly.
But looking at it with his eyes, he immediately noticed that most of the star light spots were very dim, and only a dozen stars were flashing with bright light.
Azure Sparrow spread its wings and flew to a spot under one of the stars that was flashing with soft white light. It once again released densely packed five-colored runes, wrapping the ball of white starlight layer by layer.
The originally fixed white starlight also flickered.
Instantly, Zhang Ling sensed that the heaven and earth spiritual energy within a hundred miles of area was frantically rolling and all surging towards Azure Sparrow.
This area was filled with thick yin sha energy, and immediately one could see wisps of gray-black yin energy gathering towards that side, turning into a strong yin wind.
What was amazing was that these yin sha energies were quickly transformed into five-colored ordinary spiritual energy within two or three miles of Azure Sparrow. All of it merged into Azure Sparrow's body. From a distance, Azure Sparrow seemed to have turned into a five-colored bird.
This was the method of cultivators above the Transformation God stage, mobilizing the heaven and earth vitality.
This scene lasted for a full hour, and Azure Sparrow had been wrapped in a large piece of five-colored spiritual light, and its figure could not be seen.
With Azure Sparrow's current manifested Transformation God cultivation, it still took such a long time to cast spells. Zhang Ling was very shocked in his heart. What kind of treasure was this Star Moon Disk?
During this time, the three-headed Nether Serpent and that Rakshasa still stayed in place without any movement. They were all staring at Azure Sparrow with expressionless faces, seemingly waiting for something.
Occasionally, the three-headed Nether Serpent looked towards him, revealing an unkind gaze. Although Zhang Ling's expression was calm, he felt a sense of trepidation every time. He had several layers of defense on his body and had not removed them all the time.
Fortunately, this monster did not act rashly.
In such uneasy emotions, time passed little by little. Until twenty hours later, the three-headed Nether Serpent suddenly called out. "Hehe." Its huge body twisted, stirring up a layer of water waves. It flew directly into the air.
Zhang Ling's expression changed slightly, and he quickly sacrificed his flying sword and Heavenly Star Sand. At the same time, the Void Insect was wrapped around his arm. If anything was wrong, he would retreat immediately.
He saw the three-headed Nether Serpent circling in the air and turning its head to retreat backward.
Zhang Ling frowned, secretly saying that these two guys were going to retreat. At the same time, the Void Insect on his arm chirped.
He immediately realized something and quickly controlled the Xuan Turtle to retreat backward.
It was not until he retreated out of the lake and onto the ground that he looked at the three-headed Nether Serpent on the other side, which had also retreated out of the lake's range.
The next moment, a loud bang came from Azure Sparrow's side.
Zhang Ling quickly turned his head to look and saw space cracks, either black or white, appearing in the night sky. Space collapse had appeared there.
The darkness in the sky was immediately torn apart, and there was a huge white spot flashing rapidly in the most important position of these space cracks.
It seemed extremely unstable.
Fortunately, the space collapse had only spread to an area of thirty or forty miles and had not affected him.
Zhang Ling breathed a sigh of relief, although the surrounding space had also become unstable. Every time the huge white spot vibrated, it generated new space cracks.
This light spot was constantly compressing. After such a scene lasted for a short half an hour, the light group finally stabilized and was compressed to the size of a palm.
At the same time, the star map covering the sky also scattered into starlight and dissipated. The original gray sky was revealed.
After a moment, the white light flickered and turned into a piece of white jade round disk. Azure Sparrow opened its mouth and sucked the white jade round disk into its mouth. At the same time, it threw out the Star Moon Disk.
The three-headed Nether Serpent shook its huge body and immediately took the Star Moon Disk with Rakshasa Red Lotus.
At the same time, Azure Sparrow also turned into a blue escape light and landed in front of Zhang Ling.
"Be careful. Once they make a move, we will quickly escape." A subtle sound transmission entered Zhang Ling's ears.
Zhang Ling's heart became tense. He naturally knew what Azure Sparrow's sound transmission meant.
Rakshasa grabbed the Star Moon Disk, glanced at it, and put it away. Her gaze instantly turned to Azure Sparrow. The three heads of the three-headed Nether Serpent also immediately spat out scarlet snake tongues, revealing a ferocious appearance.
Azure Sparrow looked very calm and stared at them, but strands of blue-white flames also swirled around its body.
Zhang Ling, standing behind, felt a sense of dryness in his mouth.
After a calm stare for more than ten breaths of time, Rakshasa spoke. "This Queen will stay in this world for a period of time. Within three hundred years, this place will be designated as a forbidden area."
After saying this, the three-headed Nether Serpent roared to the sky and took Rakshasa directly into the Blackwater Lake, stirring up a wave of water and disappearing.
"Go."
Azure Sparrow did not stay either. It directly turned into a ball of fire and wrapped Zhang Ling, Xuan Turtle, and the Gold Devouring Beast, soaring into the sky and disappearing in the blink of an eye.
They naturally left this place directly. As for the temporary cave that had been opened up not far away, they had already put away everything just now, so there was naturally no need to go back.
After they left, this area returned to calm again.
At the bottom of the Blackwater Lake, there was an inverted black tower. The three-headed Nether Serpent, reduced in size to a normal black, followed Rakshasa Red Lotus and landed on the top layer of the black tower.
The top layer of this black tower was flat and engraved with a set of blood-red formations.
"Red Lotus, I see that guy is already at the end of his rope. Why didn't you kill them just now?"
"We consumed the most when sealing the Underworld King Eye. The situation is not much better than his. Although we are stronger than him, we only have a 60-70% certainty of killing him. Since we have already obtained the Star Moon Judgment, it is better not to cause more trouble. Moreover, my true soul has not yet stabilized. It is important to retreat for a period of time to restore the Rakshasa true body." Red Lotus stood in the formation on the top of the black tower, and a red flower floated from her hand and landed in the formation.
The formation was immediately activated. A flash of red light, they entered a certain independent space in the black tower.
This was an independent space of crimson red. The gigantic mountain that had vanished earlier, towering ninety thousand feet high, now stood not far away.
Red Lotus and the Three-Headed Underworld Serpent transformed into streaks of light, instantly arriving at the dilapidated palace. On the plaza of this ruined space, two cultivators were waiting.
One was a woman dressed in cyan robes, none other than the maiden Ruolan. On the ground lay a pale-faced youth, imprisoned within black light. It was Yan Shimin.
