Beast-controlling fairy clan.

Chapter 430: Shikimon

Feng country.

Today, Fengguo has become a frontline battlefield.

The original monks of Fengguo either joined the Tianling Legion or fled to Jingguo and other countries.

The original mountain gate garrisons of the Feng Kingdom forces were all rearranged with powerful magic arrays and transformed into fortresses.

According to conservative estimates, there are now more than eighty Jindan-stage cultivators in the Tianling Legion in Feng Country, at least over five hundred Zifu-stage cultivators, and over six to seven thousand foundation-building stage cultivators.

As for the number of real people in the Nascent Soul stage, that is top secret information.

Under such circumstances, except for the monks of the Tianling Legion who were out on missions, almost no other monks from the Tianling Realm dared to wander around in the wilderness of Feng Country.

Although Zhou Chun wanted to send life-saving items to Zhou Daoquan and others, he did not rashly break into Feng State.

After arriving at the border between Jingguo and Fengguo, he went to a base of the Tianling Army. In his capacity as the head of the Zhou family, he inquired about the teams and bases to which Zhou Daoquan and his men belonged.

Then, through the Tianling Corps' own intelligence system, he sent a letter to the three elders, informing them of his return and suggesting that they wait at the base for him to bring them something.

As for handing the things directly to the people of the Tianling Legion and asking them to deliver them, that is naturally no problem.

But the problem is that the life-saving items that Zhou Chun wants to give to the three elders are all very valuable.

He found it hard to believe that those who delivered the items would not be tempted to keep them for themselves once they discovered that the items were valuable.

After all, the Tianling Legion cannot guarantee that the items they deliver will be delivered. The situation on the front battlefield is so complicated. Who knows if the delivery team will be attacked halfway?
It's normal to throw away some things at that time.

Therefore, apart from free items like letters, few people would actually entrust precious items to the Tianling Legion for delivery.

After sending the letter, Zhou Chun applied for a certificate issued by the Tianling Legion to prove his true identity and mark the purpose of his entry into the Fengguo battlefield.

In this way, if he encountered a patrol of the Tianling Legion on the battlefield of Fengguo, he would be able to avoid attack and at the same time be able to enter the relevant fortress to rest and avoid disaster.

In order to obtain the certificate quickly, Zhou Chun also spent three thousand spirit coins to make relevant arrangements.

This also made him sigh at those people's ability to make money. If they don't use their power, it will expire and become invalid!

Only after completing all formalities did Zhou Chun officially enter Fengguo, and then chose to walk all the way to his destination.

Feng State is now a battlefield, and Zhou Chun is completely in the dark about the situation on the battlefield. He has no idea which places are dangerous and which places are the war zones.

These military intelligences would never be open to people like him who were not members of the Tianling Legion.

Therefore, in order to avoid rushing into the battlefield, being besieged, or being too conspicuous and attracting trouble, walking is undoubtedly the best choice.

Of course, what Zhou Chun meant by walking was not walking on his own two legs, but riding a dragon scale horse to travel.

He had been prepared and brought two dragon-scale horses with him for easy transfer.

Zhou Chun had just entered Feng Kingdom for less than half a day when he happened to catch up with a small-scale war between the monks of the Tianling Legion and the Yuanmo Legion.

The battlefield of this war was near a mortal city. It seemed that the monks of the Yuanmo Legion were slaughtering mortals here to refine magical weapons, and were caught by the monks of the Tianling Legion, which triggered the war.

Judging from the number of people on both sides, the Tianling Legion has a clear advantage. They have as many as fifty or sixty people, which is the number of two teams.

The Yuanmo Legion had only more than thirty people.

However, the war situation did not become one-sided quickly.

Although the number of monks in the Yuanmo Legion is small, their actual combat power is not much lower.

On the battlefield, corpses surrounded by corpse aura were driven by the disciples of the Corpse Demon Sect to pounce on the besieging monks of the Tianling Legion.

There were also some strange monks wearing black robes that covered their bodies, waving black flags and magical instruments in their hands, releasing gray-black ghosts that pounced on the monks of different Tianling Legions.

Those black ghosts are purely a mass of Yin energy condensed, without any actual form. The damage to them by magical weapons such as flying swords is very limited. Among the ordinary five elements spells, only the fire spell can do normal damage to them, while the others are almost the same.

Moreover, they seem to have strong penetrability against shields of other attributes. Almost all the monks of the Tianling Legion present chose fire shields to protect themselves.

It was precisely because of the frontal attacks and harassment and sneak attacks by these refined corpses and ghosts that the Tianling Legion, despite having an advantage in numbers, found it difficult to break the deadlock and gain a real advantage at the beginning of the battle.

"Those cultivators who control the Yin Ghosts must be the Yin Ghost Sect cultivators mentioned in the intelligence. It is said that the Yin Ghosts they control are all made from the souls of immortal cultivators. Each Yin Ghost represents an immortal cultivator who died at their hands!"

On top of a mountain, Zhou Chun hid in the dark, observing the situation on the battlefield from afar with a serious expression.

Obviously, compared to the Corpse Demon Sect that uses the bodies of dead monks to refine puppets and corpses, the monks of the Yin Gui Sect are undoubtedly much more evil and more disgusting to orthodox cultivators.

After all, corpse refining is at most a disrespect for the bodies of the dead. Even if the immortal cultivators are somewhat disgusted by this, they will not take it to the point of killing all these people.

This is also the important reason why the Corpse Demon Cult was able to be passed down in Feng Country for so many years.

However, using the spirits and souls of immortal cultivators to sacrifice to evil spirits is truly disgusting and infuriating.

After all, when a low-level cultivator dies, his soul will dissipate.

Therefore, if you want to use their spirits to sacrifice to the evil spirits, you have to do it before they die completely, which is equivalent to using living people to practice magic!
Moreover, although most cultivators do not believe in the afterlife, if they are really on the verge of death, they would definitely prefer to believe in reincarnation.

Once the soul is refined into a demon, it is impossible for it to be reincarnated!
Therefore, the Corpse Demon Sect might still be allowed to exist by the cultivators in the Heavenly Spirit World, but the demonic forces like the Yin Gui Sect would absolutely not be accepted!

Zhou Chun also found it hard to accept this kind of thing in his heart.

Moreover, as far as he knew, in order to make the Yin Gui demons more powerful, the monks of the Yin Gui Sect would generally drive them to devour the souls of mortals to strengthen themselves.

The souls of ordinary people are weak and cannot be sacrificed to be refined into Yin Gui Demon Heads, but they can still be used as nourishment for the growth of Yin Gui Demon Heads.

If a first-rank low-grade Yin ghost demon wants to be promoted to a first-rank middle-grade one, it must at least devour hundreds or thousands of mortal souls, which means hundreds or thousands of human lives!
This is an evil act that no orthodox cultivator can ignore!
At this time, Zhou Chun frowned as he looked at the Yin Gui demons rampaging on the battlefield. He couldn't help but mutter to himself, "If I encounter the Purple Mansion cultivators of the Yin Gui Sect, I'm afraid that all my methods will be useless. Only Lei Jiao Baibai can restrain them."

Heavenly thunder can kill evil. When it comes to dealing with evil spirits and demons, thunder magic is the most useful magic, and can have a great counter-effect.

Especially Lei Jiao Baibai's [Tiangang Divine Thunder], which is driven by the power of pure heavenly thunder. If it is used to deal with evil spirits, even a fourth-order ghost equivalent to a Jindan stage cultivator can be severely injured or even killed.

But the problem is that Zhou Chun doesn't dare to easily expose the existence of Lei Jiao Baibai.

Otherwise, not only will it be difficult to fool the Qinglian Temple and the Jiaolong Clan, but even the Yin Gui Sect and other demonic forces will probably list him as an important wanted person and offer a high reward for his death!
Of course, it is okay to do it occasionally if you act carefully and don't let the news leak out.

When Zhou Chun thought of this, he couldn't help but look at the other demon monks on the battlefield.

Those demonic monks were all wearing dark red robes, as if they were stained with blood. The magic weapons they wielded were also dark red bone swords, blood-colored flags, etc.

Whether it's the dark red sword energy and light emitted by the bone sword, or the blood-colored clouds released by the blood-colored flags, they all have the effect of corroding the spiritual effects of other magic weapons and spells, and they perform quite well on the battlefield.

These people are obviously the monks from the Blood Bone Sect.

This group of demon cultivators in the Yuanmo Realm are composed of disciples from the three sects: the Corpse Demon Sect, the Yin Gui Sect, and the Blood and Bone Sect.

The other cultivators from the Valley of Ecstasy and the Beast Demon Palace have not been seen yet.

After watching for a while, seeing that both sides had suffered casualties, Zhou Chun stopped just standing there and watched. He slapped the spirit beast bag at his waist and released the golden-winged tiger to help in the battle.

Roar!
Suddenly, a tiger roar sounded throughout the sky, and a golden tiger with wings growing from its ribs quickly descended over the battlefield.

Just when both sides of the war were stunned by this sudden change and showed a look of vigilance, the golden-winged tiger flapped its wings, and hundreds of densely packed green wind blades condensed out of thin air and flew towards those cultivators from the Yuanmo Realm.

Then it opened its mouth again and spit out a golden beam of light that hit a second-level iron-armored corpse, instantly shattering the corpse's body, which was famous for its hardness, into pieces.

Zhou Chun, who was far away, saw this scene and couldn't help but nodded secretly with a smile on his face.

Although due to his cultivation level, the Golden Winged Tiger is now unable to interfere with his fight with others, but at the second level, the Golden Winged Tiger is still very powerful.

It can fight and run, and ordinary cultivators in the late stage of foundation building are no match for it.

When it comes to bullying weak enemies, it is more professional than Zhou Chun's other pets.

And it was only then that Zhou Chun discovered that the evil spirits from the Yin Gui Clan didn't seem to have any good way to deal with the golden-winged tiger. The few evil spirits that pounced on it were directly shaken away by its powerful blood and energy.

At this time, with its help, the cultivators in the Yuanmo Realm soon could no longer hold on and could only flee in all directions like birds and beasts.

At this time, Zhou Chun discovered something worth noting.

They were a few demonic cultivators who were building their foundation. Almost all of them knew the blood-burning escape technique, and their escape speed was extremely fast, making it impossible for ordinary cultivators who were building their foundation to catch up with them.

The golden-winged tiger tried its best but only managed to kill one of them.

This incident also made Zhou Chun secretly pay attention. If he fights with demon cultivators of the same level in the future, he must guard against them using this method of escape.

Being able to defeat an opponent can only be considered a skill, but being able to kill an opponent can be considered an achievement!

In order to deal with the invasion of the Yuanmo Realm, the Tianling Alliance has generous rewards for cultivators who kill demons.

Nowadays, just the head of a demon cultivator in the early stage of foundation building can be exchanged for a reward of 2,000 spirit coins and 100 points of military merit.

Whether it is promotion or exchanging for rare spiritual items such as "Foundation Building Pills", it all depends on one's personal combat achievements.

Only when one’s military achievements reach a certain standard can one purchase those rare spiritual objects at market prices.

It is said that in order to attract people to join the Tianling Legion, the Tianling Alliance has not only placed a large number of orders for Foundation Establishment Pills in the Great Zhou Kingdom and other countries, but also banned domestic markets and sects from selling Foundation Establishment Pills and auxiliary foundation-building spiritual objects.

In this way, any cultivator who wants to use spiritual objects to assist in building his foundation can only obediently join the Tianling Legion.

Zhou Chun could understand this kind of thing, and he would do the same if he were in their place. After all, it was useless to talk to those casual cultivators about the righteousness of the country and family. They were not afraid of those wearing shoes. If the Yuanmo Realm attacked them, they would either surrender to them or flee to another country.

It is a joke to expect them to voluntarily join the army to defend the country.

However, while the purchasing rights for spiritual items such as the "Foundation Building Pill" have been relaxed, private transactions of these things have been prohibited.

As long as those independent cultivators still have the idea of ​​building a foundation, they will definitely join the army to fight for their future.

At this time, after the Golden Winged Tiger returned after chasing the enemy, Zhou Chun had no intention of contacting the monks from the Tianling Legion who came to find him, and soon floated away.

Looking at the fleeting golden light, the monks of the Tianling Legion who had won a victory also understood what Zhou Chun meant, and they all bowed in the direction he left as a token of gratitude.

During the more than one day's journey that followed, Zhou Chun encountered the demon monks several times and was even attacked by a group of them.

But since there were no Purple Mansion Stage cultivators among those demon cultivators, they all died easily at his hands.

After a day or two of travel, Zhou Chun arrived at the place where Zhou Jiapeng was stationed, and quickly went in to meet his cousin.

But Zhou Jiapeng did not show any joy after seeing him. Instead, he looked at him helplessly and sighed, "Zhengchun, you shouldn't have come in person. Right now, the Feng Kingdom is in chaos and there are even Jindan stage demon cultivators patrolling the battlefield from time to time. If something goes wrong with you, we will be dead!"

"Uncle Twenty-Seven, what are you talking about? You and Aunt Thirteen are willing to sacrifice their lives for the sake of the family. I am also a member of the Zhou family. Why can't I come here to visit you?"

Zhou Chun retorted in a feigned displeasure.

Then, without waiting for Zhou Jiapeng to say anything more, he raised his hand and patted the storage bag on his waist, took out a brocade box that had been prepared long ago and handed it to the other party.

"Here are some magic talismans that I brought back from the Great Zhou Kingdom. Uncle Twenty-Seven, please keep them first. If you encounter any dangerous situations in the future, don't be reluctant to use them!"

Seeing this scene, Zhou Jiapeng felt warm in his heart and his eyes became much gentler.

After a brief hesitation, he reached out to take the brocade box, and then said softly: "Of course I understand these principles and will protect myself. Zhengchun, you should also be more careful. The future of the family still depends on you to protect it."

"I will. Twenty-seventh Uncle, please take care of yourself. I will not stay here any longer."

Zhou Chun nodded and quickly said goodbye and left.

Half a day later, Zhou Chun found Zhou Jiahe's residence again and presented him with a brocade box containing a life-saving talisman.

However, just as Zhou Chun continued on his way to Zhou Daoquan's base, he happened to encounter a big battle!
But on a plain, hundreds of monks from the Tianling Legion and hundreds of monks from the Demonic Path were seen setting up battle formations and fighting each other. The various roars produced by the fight could be heard from hundreds of miles away.

The reason why the two sides fought such a battle here is still unknown, and perhaps it is not important.

However, as the battle between the two sides became more and more prolonged, more and more monks from both sides came to support.

Zhou Chun was attracted by the roar when he was passing by.

There were many masters on the battlefield this time, including many Purple Mansion cultivators. Zhou Chun was afraid of being discovered, so he watched from afar using the "Insect Puppet Technique".

Then he was quickly attracted by two of the battlefields.

Above the battlefield, a scantily clad witch wearing a thin pink shirt was seen holding a jade-bone pipa instrument in her hand, continuously playing enchanting magic music, causing the two Purple Mansion period monks who were besieging her to actually treat each other as enemies and attack each other.

Even though the two were quickly awakened by others using the art of clearing the mind and concentrating the spirit, when they attacked the witch again, they would still be distracted from time to time and mistakenly attack other people as enemies.

There is no doubt that this witch is the monk from the Valley of Enchantment whom Zhou Chun has never seen before, and she is also a witch with profound magic skills.

In another place in the sky, a demon cultivator who was two meters tall was fighting against two Purple Mansion Stage cultivators alone, and he also had a certain advantage.

No one knows what secret technique this beast used, and now it has turned into a half-human, half-beast monster.

But he was two meters tall, with six arms growing out of his ribs. In addition to two human hands, he also had four hairy black monkey arms.

His four monkey arms are very flexible, and each holds a sword, shield and other magical weapons, allowing him to multitask and take into account both attack and defense at the same time.

Moreover, his physical body seemed to be as strong as those of monsters of the same level. Moreover, he was wearing a pitch-black iron armor. He did not dodge or evade some weaker attacks and just took them head-on.

Two Purple Mansion Stage monks from the Tianling Legion were fighting with him, and they had to be on guard at all times against him suddenly rushing forward to attack them.

"Is this the cultivator from the Beast Demon Palace? It is said that these cultivators will look for a suitable demon beast to cultivate as a spiritual pet before building their foundation. After successfully building their foundation, they will use the secret method of the Beast Demon Palace to devour the essence, blood, and soul of the demon beast, and use their own magic skills to cultivate a demon combat body, thus achieving dual cultivation of magic and body, and gaining combat power far beyond that of ordinary cultivators!"

"This kind of magic secret method seems to be somewhat similar to the "Secret of Dragon Transformation", but its threshold is undoubtedly much lower!"

Zhou Chun was watching the battle of the Beast Demon Palace monk through the "Insect Puppet Technique", and in his heart he was also analyzing the pros and cons of this magic power of the demon sect.

Judging from the information he had learned, the applicability of the Beast Demon Palace's secret techniques was much wider than that of the "Secret of Transforming into a Dragon". It could be said that it could devour all kinds of monsters.

Moreover, although the "Secret of Transforming into a Dragon" can greatly enhance the combat effectiveness of cultivators, in fact, before practicing to the fifth level, it is impossible for cultivators to master the powerful magical powers of the dragon.

However, the secret method of the Beast Demon Palace can allow cultivators to directly inherit the innate magical powers of the monsters, and continue to develop more innate magical powers in the future, just like really turning people into monsters.

Compared with the two, "The Secret of Transforming into a Dragon" seems a bit inferior.

However, Zhou Chun knew that things should be viewed from two sides.

The secret techniques of the Beast Demon Palace can certainly greatly increase the strength of cultivators, but the process of devouring and fusing the essence, blood, and soul of monsters will definitely not be smooth sailing and will definitely be accompanied by great danger.

However, there is almost no such worry in "The Secret of Transforming into a Dragon".

Secondly, while the secret techniques of the Beast Demon Palace allow cultivators to obtain the powerful innate magical powers and physique of monsters, their own temperaments will also be affected. They can easily be dominated by some instincts, and it is not surprising that they even lose their own will.

Moreover, magic skills usually have the risk of backlash. The higher the level of cultivation, the more likely it is to encounter backlash. The secret techniques of the Beast Demon Palace may seem powerful, but there may be some big trap behind the scenes.

Otherwise, with the powerful fighting capability of the disciples of the Beast Demon Palace, they should have become the most powerful sect in the Yuan Demon Realm long ago.

"These magic sects all have their own characteristics. No wonder they say that magic skills are so strange and changeable that it's hard to guard against them!"

After Zhou Chun sighed for a while, he regained consciousness and stopped looking at the battlefield.

The scale of this war now is no longer something he can rashly get involved in.

If he joins the war, he will have to reveal a lot of his true strength in order to help the Tianling Legion.

Moreover, now that the scale of the battlefield has expanded to this extent, it is hard to say whether it will attract the attention of Jindan stage cultivators. He does not want to perform too well in front of those Jindan stage cultivators.

So he quickly and quietly left the battlefield, and then continued on his way to the stronghold where Zhou Daoquan was.

But what Zhou Chun didn't expect was that he met Zhou Daoquan who was leading his troops to the battlefield for support halfway!

"It seems like it really can't be avoided!"

Zhou Chun murmured something a little depressed, and had to show up immediately to stop Zhou Daoquan and others.

"Third Elder, please stay!"

In mid-air, Zhou Chun rode a golden-winged tiger into the sky and shouted to stop Zhou Daoquan, who was riding a blood-flame dragon python with twenty or thirty monks on his way to support him.

"Zhengchun, why is it you? How did you get here?!"

On the python's back, Zhou Daoquan looked at Zhou Chun with surprise, and was also extremely surprised that he appeared here.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun could only smile helplessly and said, "I came here to give you something, elder. I didn't expect to see you bringing people here."

Zhou Daoquan heard this and understood Zhou Chun's intention of showing up at this time. A touch of warmth suddenly appeared in his eyes, and then he nodded seriously and said, "I understand. Then give me the things and leave here quickly. This is not the place for you to come!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as these words fell, a red-dressed woman with the cultivation base of the middle stage of Purple Mansion on a large flying boat that was originally flying side by side with the Blood Flame Dragon Python immediately spoke up and said, "Is this fellow Daoist from your clan, Daoist Zhou? I see that this fellow Daoist has extraordinary cultivation base. Can we ask him to go with us to support our fellow Daoists ahead?"

Hearing the red-dressed woman's words, Zhou Daoquan's face suddenly changed, and then he hurriedly said: "No, Zhengchun is the head of my Zhou family, and he is not a member of the Tianling Army!"

Having said this, Zhou Daoquan seemed to realize that his tone was a bit bad, and he quickly bowed to the woman in red and said, "Commander Li, please forgive me. I have no intention of offending you, but please don't mention this matter again!"

Seeing his reaction, the woman in red glanced at Zhou Chun's relatively young face and roughly knew why he reacted so strongly.

He did not insist on his previous proposal, but nodded slightly and said: "Since Brother Zhou feels it is inappropriate, then just pretend that I never said anything. However, the war situation is urgent, so Brother Zhou please do not waste any more time, so as not to miss the opportunity to fight!"

"Thank you for your understanding, Commander. Zhou will be there soon."

Zhou Daoquan thanked him again, then looked at Zhou Chun and said sternly, "Zhengchun, give me the things and return to the family immediately. Don't let me become the sinner of the family because of this!"

He seldom spoke in such a harsh tone, and this time he did so because he was obviously worried that Zhou Chun would go to the battlefield with him.

Zhou Chun naturally understood what he meant, and did not say much. He quickly nodded and said, "Junior understands. Third Elder, please take care of yourself!"

After saying that, he took out the prepared brocade box and a third-grade medium-quality defensive magic weapon and handed them to Zhou Daoquan.

"Go back, I will take good care of myself!"

Zhou Daoquan reached out and took the two objects, then waved to Zhou Chun, and then let the Blood Flame Dragon Python continue to fly towards the battlefield.

Looking at the Blood Flame Dragon Python and the flying boat going away, Zhou Chun also landed on the ground riding on the Golden Winged Tiger.

But after he landed, he did not actually leave. Instead, he quickly raised his hand and patted the spirit beast bag on his waist, releasing the golden-armored mountain turtle stone.

But when he gave some instructions to the stone, the golden-armored mountain turtle stone nodded its head and suddenly turned into a yellow light and disappeared into the ground.

"With Shi Tou hiding underground to provide support, even if the Tianling Army is defeated, it should be enough to take the Third Elder away safely!"

Zhou Chun muttered to himself, and soon found a place to hide, quietly waiting for news.

I read the comments on the book I recommended today, and I feel that many readers are really strange. Since when did some people think it was wrong when the protagonist of the mortal style became a hexagonal warrior? I thought about those popular mortal style classic books, including Han Li Tianzun, which protagonist is not proficient in alchemy, weapons, talismans, arrays, etc.? How can this be worth complaining about? If I were not writing a family style, so that other family members could have a chance to show their talents, I would also want to write that the protagonist can refine weapons and alchemy. It's really strange what you think!!! And you actually doubt my taste, I feel it's incredible, I said the book I recommend is a mortal style, then it must be, after all, I don't like the book, no matter how good the grades are, I won't read it!
