As the Xuan Turtle rushed out, it transformed into its massive turtle form. Strangely, a flash of bloody light appeared on its back, coiling into a long, blood-red snake, which was the Xuan Turtle's snake tail, hissing ominously.
From the snake's tail, a mass of black light emerged, coalescing into a black water orb that rapidly spun above its head, similarly rippling with circles of water.
Immediately, some of the water waves emitted by the Great Sea Snail, where the Town Sea King was hidden, were drawn in, losing their power and turning into ordinary water vapor, gathering towards the Xuan Turtle.
Under the Xuan Turtle's control, this water vapor condensed into icy needles that shot out.
This development indicated that the Xuan Turtle was also proficient in water manipulation.
With this interference, the black water waves released by the Great Sea Snail immediately became chaotic.
Seizing the opportunity, Zhang Ling controlled the Wind Fire Orb, expanding the released fire ring to hundreds of feet in size, entwined with dense cyan-red runes, and instantly ensnared the giant sea snail.
With a crisp crack, the giant sea snail was marked with a scorched line by the fire ring.
Seeing this, Zhang Ling was overjoyed and fully mobilized the Wind Fire Orb. The cyan-red fire ring spun rapidly, like a rotating wind wheel, not only constricting the sea snail but also continuously shrinking. The flickering flame runes covered the sea snail, burning countless flame cracks onto it.
Just as it was about to break open the sea snail, a sharp roar came from within, "You think you can kill this king? Wishful thinking!"
With the Town Sea King's roar, a burst of blood light emerged from the sea snail, and the Town Sea King's battered body swam out.
Zhang Ling was secretly delighted, thinking, 'Isn't this courting death?'
Hiding in the Great Sea Snail, this demon could temporarily withstand the Wind Fire Orb's attack. Once it came out, he would have a great chance to kill it.
Of course, the Town Sea King wasn't courting death. Zhang Ling instantly noticed a layer of faint golden light covering the Town Sea King, which actually resisted the wind and fire power of the fire ring.
Moreover, the demon's Flood Dragon body had also changed dramatically. It was originally a light blue water dragon, covered in blue-black scales.
But now, the Town Sea King had become a blood dragon, as if engorged with blood, with a strong bloody aura, as if stimulating all the blood essence in its body.
The Town Sea King glared with bloodshot eyes, and a flash of blood light emerged from its mouth, spitting out a cloud of blood mist containing a rhombus-shaped object, which seemed to be a colorful scale.
Glancing at the scale, Zhang Ling felt a blur before his eyes, as if he saw a golden dragon coiling before him.
The dragon shadow disappeared in a flash.
But the next moment, Zhang Ling sensed the surrounding air tighten, becoming somewhat suffocating.
This feeling definitely meant that some danger was approaching, and it was extremely dangerous.
Just as Zhang Ling was about to take some countermeasures, he suddenly saw a golden light appear before his eyes.
"Not good!"
Zhang Ling's pupils shrank. He had no time to dodge and could only spit out a mass of yellow light. Instantly, a thick yellow light shield blocked him.
This was the Profound Light Shield defense he had cultivated, which he could now release at will.
With a muffled sound, Zhang Ling was struck heavily, spitting blood as he flew backward. The large amount of Heavenly Star Sand and the seven flying swords surrounding him were all knocked away by this attack.
The golden light directly swept across his body.
After flying three or four hundred feet, Zhang Ling barely managed to stabilize himself, his face pale and his expression full of shock.
At this moment, his clothes were tattered, and his body was still wrapped in fine strands of vines, which formed a black-cyan armor in a regular pattern, protecting the vital parts of his body.
But strangely, there was a faint layer of golden light on the vines. Each time the golden light flickered, the vines broke inch by inch, and the black armor they formed was also beaten out of shape.
This was also the top-level defensive technique he cultivated, using True Devil Qi and Parasitic Vine to mobilize blood essence and activate the Saint Demon Armor.
He didn't expect it to almost be broken.
Zhang Ling quickly patted his chest and abdomen, mobilizing the few strands of True Devil Qi he had refined in his body, covering himself in a layer of black paint, gradually dispelling the faint golden light attached to the vines.
These golden lights seemed weak, but they were more difficult to dispel than he had imagined.
Only now did Zhang Ling notice what had attacked him, which was the dragon shadow he had just seen.
It was a golden dragon shadow, floating on the colorful scale, vaguely illusory, but capable of launching the powerful attack just now.
Zhang Ling's expression was solemn as he stared at the colorful scale. At the same time, he waved his hand, releasing the Yellow Canopy Umbrella and a white shield to strengthen his defense.
The scattered Heavenly Star Sand and the flying swords also quickly returned to his side, forming two more layers of protection.
At the same time, the colorful scale flickered and flew back into the mouth of the blood dragon coiling above the Great Sea Snail. A layer of colorful light emerged from the blood dragon, gradually shaking off the fire ring around the Great Sea Snail.
From within came the Town Sea King's shocked and angry voice, "You actually blocked the Dragon Might!"
Zhang Ling naturally did not reply. With a thought, the runes on the Wind Fire Orb in his hand flickered. The fire ring around the Great Sea Snail shone brightly, tightly ensnaring it again.
However, the fire ring spun rapidly, releasing powerful wind and fire power to cut, but it was blocked by the faint golden light on the Town Sea King.
They were deadlocked, and the fire ring could not cut through.
This scene made Zhang Ling's face sink. The golden light on the Town Sea King was clearly related to the colorful scale it spat out.
What kind of treasure was this? Could it also be a spiritual treasure?
Zhang Ling felt a headache. He couldn't keep dragging on like this. He flicked a few hand seals onto the seven flying swords, shaking out a tiger's roar. The flying swords quickly merged, forming a dazzling sword light.
At the same time, he flung out the black light, spitting a mouthful of blood on it. The black light grew in the wind, transforming into a black-cyan-red giant claw.
He planned to use all the powerful attacks in his hand, regardless of the cost.
At the same time, with a thought, the Xuan Turtle and the Nascent Soul puppet also launched powerful attacks together.
The Xuan Turtle transformed into an ice ball, rapidly spinning in the air. The blood-colored giant axe in the Nascent Soul puppet's hand flashed with blood light.
The Town Sea King noticed Zhang Ling's actions, and a trace of fear appeared in his eyes, but it was instantly replaced by a ferocious look. With a long roar, the colorful scale flashed and embedded itself in his forehead.
The Town Sea King's demonic energy surged, and he seemed to be planning to fight to the death.
However, at this moment, Zhang Ling made a surprising move. He quickly waved his hands and put away the black bone giant claw and the flying swords.
The Xuan Turtle and the Nascent Soul puppet also returned to his side. Wrapped in a cloud of Heavenly Star Sand, Zhang Ling no longer lingered and immediately fled away.
With a few flashes, he disappeared into the horizon.
A look of surprise flashed in the Town Sea King's eyes, but he didn't intend to chase after him. At the same time, he sensed something and turned to look at the position behind him.
His entire body twisted, and with a crisp sound, the fire ring that trapped him was shattered and dissipated into countless flying sparks.
The fire ring also lost its power after Zhang Ling fled and was easily broken free by the demon.
At the same time, the Town Sea King's body shrank in a golden light, transforming back into human form. His hands and feet were not missing, and he looked no different from before, but his face was extremely pale.
He snorted softly, took out a golden jade bottle, swallowed a few pills from it, and his face flashed with blood light before returning to normal.
But his current situation was not good. He looked fine, but he had suppressed his injuries with secret methods. In fact, he was already seriously injured.
Not only had he consumed a large amount of essence, but his physical body had also been severed. Although it was only half of his tail, not a vital part, the damage to his demon body would require at least a hundred years of closed-door cultivation to recover.
Fighting against such a strong enemy just now, the outcome was really unpredictable. The bead in this person's hand was so sharp, it was likely a spiritual treasure. He also carried spiritual insects that were proficient in space attributes. His strength was comparable to a Nascent Soul后期 cultivator. What was his background? He had never heard of such a person.
The Town Sea King's face was extremely ugly as he stared in the direction Zhang Ling left, his eyes full of baleful aura.
Several streaks of light flew from behind in the distance. Their speed was not slow. They were the Nascent Soul cultivators guarding Black Fiend Peak: Tao Zhang, the old man in linen clothes, and others.
Zhang Ling had sensed the aura of several Nascent Soul cultivators, which was why he dared not linger and left the area.
As soon as Tao Zhang and the others arrived, they noticed the Town Sea King's baleful aura and sensed the aftermath of the battle. With their shrewdness, they naturally guessed that the Town Sea King had not captured that person.
For a moment, no one spoke. The Town Sea King swept his eyes over them and said coldly, "Find out what that person's background is."
