Chapter 291: Encountering a powerful enemy, strike first to gain the upper hand
The section of Wuding River outside the Great Wall flows through a much longer area than the Jialu River.
Li Dingguo, who spent a day and a night riding a golden eagle to reach the source of the Wuding River, deeply felt this point.
According to conservative estimates, the Wuding River is at least three times as long as the Jialu River, just in terms of the river section outside the Great Wall.
The source of the Wuding River is only about ten thousand miles away from the Great Salt Lake that the Fuxing Army is currently vigorously planning and developing.
It is almost ten thousand miles away from the great desert in the west.
Li Dingguo's face changed as soon as he arrived here with a group of fish monsters.
The source of the Wuding River is a lake that is even larger than the source of the Jialu River, with a radius of at least a thousand miles.
It is formed by the confluence of streams of all sizes from all directions of the prairie.
If Li Dingguo guessed correctly, there was also a large spiritual spring in this huge lake, which made the spiritual energy here more abundant than most of the river sections downstream.
It is impossible that there are no powerful monsters living in such a huge spiritual lake.
In this large lake, there are three islands, distributed in a triangular shape.
Each island in the middle of the lake is not big, about several dozen miles in radius and has an irregular shape.
What surprised Li Dingguo was that there were no groups of monsters on the three spiritual islands in the middle of the lake!
What is even more shocking is that a huge whirlpool with a radius of several miles appeared in the waters between the three islands in the middle of the lake!
Countless water monsters of all kinds rushed in, all with red eyes, and entered the huge whirlpool desperately, disappearing without a trace in an instant!
This is definitely not normal!
Li Dingguo could clearly see from high in the sky that these various monsters, like moths to a flame, had their bodies destroyed by a mysterious force before they were sucked into the rapidly spinning vortex!
Then it turned into blood and flesh and was sucked into the vortex!
What’s even more amazing is that even though this huge whirlpool was devouring countless aquatic monsters that were rushing in madly, it did not swallow up a single drop of the lake water!
The lake water was just spinning along this extremely strange vortex, but it didn't decrease at all!
"Ok?"
Li Dingguo, who was thousands of feet high in the sky, immediately discovered another unusual situation: on an island in the middle of the lake facing north, there was a man in black, coiled on the grass by the lake!
"There's something strange about this man in black!"
Li Dingguo's heart trembled, and he sent a voice transmission to the big golden eagle, "Dajin, can you sense the aura of the black-clothed man on the island in the middle of the lake below?"
He had to find out the cultivation level of this black-clothed man who was behaving very strangely.
In this world, Cao Bianjiao, the top martial arts master on the surface, is only at the fifth level of martial arts.
However, Li Dingguo, who had come into contact with many secrets, still couldn't figure out whether there were really no human practitioners with sixth-level cultivation in the world.
Once he encountered a level six cultivator, without the help of tens of thousands of warriors forming a military killing formation, Li Dingguo would run as far away as possible and would not dare to confront him head-on.
Together with the giant golden eagle, he would not be afraid of any peak level five warriors, but level six practitioners were on another level.
Even if Li Dingguo and the Great Golden Eagle played all their cards, they could at best escape unscathed, but they could not defeat the other side at all.
In today's world, once a sixth-level human strongman appears, with his background and foundation, he will definitely have a trump card such as a natal divine weapon.
As a top-level spiritual beast, the golden eagle is much stronger than humans in vision, perception and intuition.
As soon as Li Dingguo finished speaking, the golden eagle began to carefully observe the mysterious strong man below.
It knew that this was a critical moment, so it did not make any unnecessary movements so as to avoid being noticed by the other party.
After just a moment, its investigation yielded results, and it nodded towards Li Dingguo, indicating that the other party was still within its ability to handle.
"It's good that he's not the legendary level six expert."
"What is this guy doing in secret? Is he practicing evil magic?"
Li Dingguo breathed a sigh of relief when he knew that the other party was not a level six expert.
Yes, in today's world, so far, no one has heard of any human master who has broken through to the sixth level.
If there is anyone who can break through the bottleneck first and reach the sixth level of practitioner, Cao Bianjiao, Lu Xiangsheng and Aobai have the highest chance.
Seeing this mysterious man below, Li Dingguo was secretly shocked. He didn't know what means he used to cause such a big commotion here.
At least Li Dingguo himself couldn't cause such a big fuss.
It is obvious that the other party is not taking the right path now, but is actually taking the crooked path.
However, Li Dingguo was completely confused about what purpose this mysterious man wanted to achieve.
He didn't plan to take action immediately until he had observed the situation clearly.
At this time, Li Dingguo suddenly saw the man in black shoot a stream of light towards the whirlpool in front.
Li Dingguo was very familiar with this dark stream of light. It was the same seal that he used with the help of the runes of the skills in the Sea of Gods to activate the Human Emperor Cauldron.
"This mysterious person should be refining his own magical weapon!"
"This life-saving magic weapon of his is most likely a divine weapon, and it can emit some kind of evil vibrations, which can be transmitted through the water flow over a long range, attracting a large number of demon beasts of all levels to fall into its trap."
This was the first time that Li Dingguo had seen such an evil natal magic weapon.
Just like this man in black, he is extremely evil.
"Could it be that this man in black is using this method to remove the seal of heaven and earth on my natal divine weapon, just like my twelfth-grade karma fire red lotus?"
At this moment, Li Dingguo suddenly thought of something and was suddenly shocked!
Since I was able to obtain several magical artifacts, there must be other geniuses in this world who would obtain their own magical artifacts.
It's impossible that I'm the only one so lucky.
The unsealing of his innate lotus pedestal artifact had caused quite a stir.
It was just that the ancient magic circle hid the noise caused by the Twelve-Rank Karma Fire Red Lotus within the circle and did not spread to the outside world.
Otherwise, if hundreds of millions of human souls appeared in the outside world, who knows what kind of shocking commotion it would cause?
At least it won't be less noisy than the one made by the man in black now.
Thinking of this, Li Dingguo's heart became very heavy.
So far, he has finally met a peerless genius who possesses a life-defining divine weapon.
This is enough to prove that there are far more practitioners who can obtain the innate divine weapon than just him.
At this moment, as the mysterious man shot out a stream of light and sank into the huge vortex not far in front of him, the speed of the vortex's rotation suddenly increased a lot, luring and devouring those large numbers of monsters even faster.
Li Dingguo could clearly see that a large group of pythons were rushing in from the downstream of Wuding River. The strongest python was no smaller than the level 5 peak dragon that Li Dingguo had seen on Diaoyu Island, weighing more than tens of thousands of pounds.
This should be a peak level five python, most likely the same one that Wei Jinfan and He Guang had seen.
What is horrifying is that even such a powerful group of pythons could not resist the mysterious temptation emanating from the other party's innate artifact, and came forward to seek death!
The reason why the man in black just now made a hand seal was definitely because he discovered the arrival of this group of very powerful giant pythons and increased the power of activating his own innate divine weapon.
This group of giant pythons were influenced and manipulated by some evil force, and they rushed into the abnormal vortex like moths to a flame. Without exception, their bodies were crushed by the vortex, turned into flesh and blood, and were swallowed up in an instant!
"no!"
"I can't just stand there and watch!"
Li Dingguo felt vaguely frightened, and had a feeling that if he did not kill the opponent here this time, he would very likely pose a fatal threat to him in the future.
There was a gleam in his eyes, a fierce look in his eyes, and he made the decision in an instant.
A practitioner's sixth sense is very accurate and rarely makes mistakes.
Now that I have this premonition, I must nip the danger in the bud.
Otherwise, once the opponent's innate divine artifact, which seemed to have released the multiple seals of heaven and earth, continued to unlock, it would pose a huge threat to himself.
And the identity of this man in black must be extraordinary.
In this vast world, there is no simple person among the practitioners who can break through to level five.
Especially this man in black who looked to be only in his twenties. The detection results transmitted to him by the golden eagle's divine consciousness showed that the other party was a great master in the late fifth stage.
He has his own divine weapon at such a young age, and his cultivation has reached the late fifth level. In terms of aptitude and talent, he is no worse than Li Dingguo.
The reason why I am stronger than the other party is that I have more innate magical weapons and a golden finger.
Apart from this, this powerful enemy should be no worse than Li Dingguo in all aspects.
"Da Jin, let's prepare for action, our target is the man in black below!"
Li Dingguo made a prompt decision and sent a message to the Golden Eagle, "We will still use the sneak attack tactic this time. We will try to launch our strongest killing move at him before he can react!"
"Otherwise, the other party will most likely have a life artifact, and can use some mysterious means to stimulate a trace of the power of the life artifact."
"Judging from the situation of these aquatic monsters that keep coming to die, the opponent's life artifact is both powerful and evil."
"We cannot let him continue to operate and let the treasure that is suspected to be the life artifact devour a large number of water monsters, thereby greatly enhancing its power."
His concerns are not without reason.
Li Dingguo himself has an innate magical weapon that has been released from three seals. He knows very well how much the power of this innate magical weapon will increase with each release of a seal.
If the other party has already removed the fourth or fifth seal on its innate divine weapon, who knows what outrageous power it will unleash?
By then, even if he and the golden eagle launched a joint attack, they would most likely not be the match.
Moreover, by alerting the enemy, you will create an extremely terrifying enemy for yourself.
"Whoosh!"
The golden eagle nodded, a fierce light flashed in its eyes, and its gaze became fierce. It flapped its huge wings and swooped down at a very fast speed towards the mysterious man in black!
At the same time, its pair of sharp claws were covered by two three-foot-long sharp auras, and it was ready to attack.
Li Dingguo used all his strength to activate the Human Emperor Cauldron in his hand, enlarging it to a radius of more than ten feet, with the mouth of the cauldron facing downwards.
The phantom of his natal Dharma form, the Chaos Bell, also appeared above his head, ready to go.
"Dong dong!"
When the Great Jin rushed to the top of the head of the unsuspecting powerful enemy like lightning, the sonic attack activated by Li Dingguo had already been launched, sweeping towards the enemy!
At the same time, his eyes were fierce, and he threw the dark yellow cauldron, which was more than ten feet in diameter, at the opponent's head!
In order to eliminate this powerful enemy as he wished, Li Dingguo carefully designed this surprise attack.
"Who are you!"
"court death!"
Li Dingguo didn't expect the other party to react so quickly!
Although he was startled by the bell, he reacted in a flash.
The mysterious man in black suddenly swung his fist and hit the big tripod that was coming towards him!
"Oh!"
What he didn't expect was that the tripod was so big and hard that he couldn't either knock it away or break it.
He almost broke his own bone and his fist was in extreme pain.
"Hei Lian, come!"
He didn't care about the pain in one of his hands. At this critical moment, he punched out with his other hand, hitting the cauldron that was about to catch him in time!
At the same time, he shouted loudly, and his mind moved. A pitch-black lotus platform with a radius of nine feet rose from the huge vortex in front of him and turned into a black lightning, shooting towards Li Dingguo and the mysterious man!
"Honglian, come out!"
Li Dingguo looked at the black lotus platform rising from the river and attacking him, and felt it looked very familiar.
He immediately thought of something, and with a thought, the Twelve-Level Karma Fire Red Lotus immediately flashed out, also turning into a size of nine feet, and flew towards the black lotus platform which had the same shape but a different color!
"boom!"
Two lotus platforms that were identical but of different colors collided violently with each other, making a deafening sound!
As a result, Li Dingguo's red lotus platform was knocked dozens of feet away on the spot!
Although the black lotus platform survived the collision, it was also thrown back ten feet.
It's not that Li Dingguo's lotus platform is not strong, but the cultivation of this mysterious man in black is much stronger than Li Dingguo. Naturally, the power of his innate magic weapon is nearly times stronger than that of Li Dingguo.
"No!"
At this time, the man in black who had blocked the attacks of the Human Emperor Cauldron twice in succession, after his own natal artifact, the Black Lotus, failed to save his master, was finally caught by the huge cauldron artifact that came over his head and was taken into the cauldron!
"Dajin!"
"Help me block that black lotus platform. Don't let it attack me, and don't let it fly away!"
Although Li Dingguo was at a disadvantage when using his own innate divine weapon, the Lotus Platform, to fight against the enemy's innate divine weapon, he succeeded in trapping this powerful enemy with the Human Emperor Cauldron, leaving him with no way to escape!
He was overjoyed and shouted to the golden eagle.
He knew very well how magical and powerful the innate lotus platform would be after its triple seals were released.
Li Dingguo did not dare to relax at all and asked the golden eagle to block the black lotus platform artifact that was still under the control of the enemy to buy time for himself.
