In fact, the Nine Infants lineage becomes stronger as time goes by, and its water and fire attributes will gradually expand and evolve, deriving more abundant and varied magical abilities such as ice, thunder and fire.

Their rich spell damage allows them to have many different combat styles.

Jiushou Qingjun had obviously mastered the essence of this lineage. She made full use of the three attributes of poisonous water, fire and icy air.

She quickly adjusted her body shape and launched an attack at the same time. The three snake heads sprayed out poisonous water, flames and icy air at the same time and pounced towards Xiao Chen.

The poisonous water and the flames met in the air, but unexpectedly they did not cancel each other out, but formed a foggy chaotic area. This chaos seemed to be the fusion of poison and fire, creating a new and more dangerous substance.

The icy air was weaving through this chaos, making the entire scene look wild and cold, as if it were a purgatory of ice and fire.

Three completely different forces, one poison, one ice, and one fire, intertwined and merged under the control of Jiushou Qingjun, making her attacks extremely strange, difficult to predict and defend against.

"Water, fire, and ice."

Xiao Chen smiled lightly upon seeing this.

The Bull Demon King is not good at water and is afraid of fire.

The Bull Demon King is actually a pure warrior type. Most of the time, he is better at crushing others with his physical body and is not very good at magic attacks.

Therefore, facing the attack of the Nine-Headed Golden Rainbow, the Bull Demon King could only use the "Seventy-Two Transformations" to escape.

However, Xiao Chen seemed to be at ease.

After all, he, the King of Golden Horn, is good at water and is not afraid of fire.

When the poisonous water surged in like a tide, Xiao Chen waved his left hand lightly, activating the water-absorbing ability of the "Sea-Covering Pearl".

The "Sea Covering Pearl" seemed to have magnetism, absorbing all the poisonous water into the pearl without leaving a single drop. No matter how turbulent the poisonous water was, it could not resist the devouring power of the Sea Covering Pearl, and the poisonous water attack of the Nine-Headed Qingjun was ineffective.

Seeing that the poisonous water didn't work, the Nine-Headed Green Bamboo stopped spraying water.

She gave up spraying water, and all three heads spewed out flames at the same time, pouncing towards Xiao Chen like a fire dragon.

But the fire that the Nine-Headed Green Cloud spewed out, although quite good, was obviously not yet at the level of the "Six Ding Divine Fire" and the "Samadhi True Fire".

Xiao Chen was wearing the purple ribbon fairy robe, and this magic weapon seemed to have built an indestructible firewall for him.

The moment the flame touched the immortal clothes, it was as if it encountered an invisible barrier and could not penetrate at all, so Xiao Chen was unharmed.

Xiao Chen was even more able to deal with the icy air with ease.

He only needs to separate a ray of the sun's true fire. This flame is hot and pure and can melt the ice in an instant.

When the icy air approached, he waved it lightly, and the Sun's True Fire cut it off like a sharp blade, turning it into nothingness.

Under the scorching heat of the sun's true fire, the icy air quickly dissipated and could not pose any threat to Xiao Chen.

After a fierce competition, both sides have fully demonstrated their martial arts and magic.

Jiushou Qingjun found that even though he tried his best, he still couldn't do anything to Xiao Chen. It was obviously meaningless to continue the stalemate.

However, Jiushou Qingjun obviously would not give up easily.

She moved her body and transformed into a three-headed green snake over three thousand feet long. She opened her huge mouth and pounced towards Xiao Chen with a fierce momentum, trying to overwhelm him with her absolute physical advantage.

at this time.

"Is it the giant snake that swallows the toad, or the toad that swallows the giant snake?"

It was time to make a choice, but Xiao Chen chose none.

He, the Golden Horned King Toad, had kept his secrets hidden for a long time. There was no need for him to reveal them just to fight with a woman. That would be too stupid.

Xiao Chen bent his waist and shouted:

"long!"

Xiao Chen summoned his divine power and used the magical power of "Controlling Heaven and Earth".

His body suddenly swelled up and became ten thousand feet tall.

He has a green face and fangs, scarlet hair, a head as majestic as Mount Tai, a waist as straight as a steep mountain, eyes as bright as the sun and the moon, a mouth as deep as the abyss, teeth as huge as doors, fingers as thick as pillars supporting the sky, and palms as broad as clouds covering the sky.

At this moment, although the three-headed green snake system of more than 3,000 feet was large, it was still a little small in front of Xiao Chen, just like a rat snake, not good enough.

However, Jiushou Qingjun obviously had an obsession in his heart.

Even facing Xiao Chen's giant figure of ten thousand feet, her three-headed green snake of more than three thousand feet remained indomitable, circling in various ways and trying to bite Xiao Chen.

But, it's well known.

Although rat snakes and bamboo pit vipers are fierce, humans are not afraid of their poison. Even if they are bitten twice, they can still beat these small snakes.

A giant ten thousand feet tall and a small green snake over three thousand feet long started fighting.

The snake bit the man, and the man caught the snake, but the fight didn't last long.

Soon, the little green snake, which was over three thousand feet long, was beaten all over and its scales were broken by Xiao Chen's powerful attack.

However, the Nine Infants Clan has a unique recovery ability. They can gather spiritual energy from heaven and earth to heal their injuries.

As long as there is enough spiritual energy from heaven and earth, Jiuying is almost immortal. Even if its body is cut into two pieces, it can quickly recover.

Originally, the Northern Continent was filled with filthy air and miasma, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was extremely thin. Fortunately, the Lion Roar Mountain was filled with spiritual energy by the Lion King, as if it were real.

Thanks to the nourishment of this spiritual energy, although this little green snake, which is over 3,000 feet long, was injured, it was able to recover quickly.

Jiushou Qingjun showed a tenacious fighting spirit. She endured the pain and continued to deal with Xiao Chen. She flexibly shuttled between Xiao Chen's huge body, trying to bite various parts of his body to test his vital points.

Facing this powerful little green snake with sharp teeth and tongue.

Xiao Chen seized the opportunity, caught the Nine-Headed Green Jun, wrapped it around his arm, and said with a smile:
"I heard that as long as the spiritual energy of heaven and earth exists, your Nine Infants clan has the ability to be indestructible and indestructible."

"But I, the Golden Horned King, also have the ability to swallow the sky!"

Among the five poisonous creatures, if we only consider the ability to break defense, the toad may be slightly insufficient.

However, when it comes to the ability to swallow food, toads are unrivaled.

After saying that, Xiao Chen opened his huge mouth of the abyss that seemed to be able to swallow everything, and with a gentle suck, he swallowed all the spiritual energy of heaven and earth contained in the 800-mile Nine Heads Mountain Range into his stomach.

This action immediately triggered a chain reaction. The miasma and foul air in Uttarakuru, which had been suppressed by the spiritual energy of Lion's Roar Mountain, now surged in like a tide and permeated the land again.

Without the nourishment of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, Nine-Headed Qingjun's injuries could no longer be recovered, and her strength gradually weakened.

At this point, the outcome of the battle is self-evident.

The nine green bamboos were weakly wrapped around Xiao Chen's arms. Her eyes were full of unwillingness, but she was helpless.

Xiao Chen stood on the top of Lion's Roar Mountain, his figure looming in the miasma and filthy air, as if he had become the master of this land.

……

Jiushou Mountain.

Oh, no, according to the bet, it is now called "Lion's Roar Mountain".

The two snake demon sisters, Jiushou Qingjun and Jiushou Jinni, were quite straightforward and were willing to accept defeat.

After the bet was settled, they did not argue and simply evacuated Lion's Roar Mountain with a group of demon soldiers.

The first thing the Lion King did after reoccupying Lion's Roar Mountain was to change the three big words "Nine Heads Mountain" on the mountain to "Lion's Roar Mountain".

The Lion King smashed the nine-headed cave to pieces.

The Lion King said with disdain:
"How could I possibly want this place where the Nine-Headed Insect once lived?"

"Tear it down, tear it all down, and open up a new cave."

According to the tradition of the demon world, if you win a fight you have to hold a banquet to celebrate, and if you lose you have to admit defeat.

So, the Lion King invited the Bull Demon King, the Monkey King, the Golden Horn King, the Tooth Pig General and more than a thousand demon soldiers and generals, and set up a grand banquet on the Lion's Roar Peak.

At the banquet, the monsters toasted each other, laughed and chatted, celebrating the victory of the Lion King.

On the other side, the Nine-headed Insect covered his blinded eye and led the remaining defeated troops to leave Lion's Roar Mountain indignantly. His heart was full of resentment and hatred, but he was powerless to change the status quo.

"Happy, happy!"

"Bird's head tastes good with wine."

The Lion King stood on the top of Lion's Roaring Mountain, holding a wine bowl and gnawing on a goose head in big mouthfuls. He looked down at the Nine-Headed Insect's departing back and laughed out loud.

When the Nine-Headed Insect heard the Lion King's laughter, he became even more furious.

He has ten heads, which means twenty eyes. Although one of his heads was eaten by the Lion King and one of his eyes was blinded by Xiao Chen, he still has seventeen eyes left.

The seventeen eyes of the Nine-Headed Insect stared coldly at the Lion King with hatred, and then fell on Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen showed no fear at all. There was a golden light shining in his eyes, as if he was ready to attack again at any time and shoot him again.

He, the King of Golden Horn, is not afraid of the Nine-Headed Insect. He dares to kill the gods in heaven and the Bodhisattvas in Lingshan. If this guy really does not know how to deal with the current situation, he, the King of Golden Horn, does not mind taking action secretly to solve this trouble.

But he is not a reckless person.

The demon world of Northern Juluzhou is complex, and there are still several demon saints alive. Although the Nine-headed Insect has fallen, he is after all the descendant of a demon saint, and the other demon saints will take care of him to some extent.

If he killed the Hydra rashly, he would probably get into unnecessary trouble.

What's more, he came to Uttarakuru this time with his own plans.

On the one hand, he wanted to find a way to retreat in case of any unexpected events; on the other hand, he also wanted to recruit some talented people here to enhance his own strength.

If we get into big trouble at this critical juncture, all these things will be ruined.

Seventeen eyes met two eyes, looking at the golden light in Xiao Chen's eyes. The nine-headed insect was like a frightened bird, and finally became a little scared. He turned his head away, pretending that he didn't see the Golden Horned King, and left.

"Lion King, I was careless this time. We will decide the winner later!"

It is better to lose the insect than the battle. The Nine-headed Insect maintained its last bit of dignity, sneered, and after leaving these cruel words, it spread its wings and flew away in a hurry with its demon soldiers.

"Halloween niece."

At this time, the Bull Demon King's deep voice sounded, and he called out to Princess Halloween who was about to leave with the other demons.

"Uncle Bull Demon King, what do you want?"

Upon hearing this, Princess Halloween stopped and turned to look at the Bull Demon King with a polite smile on her face.

"Your father is really worried about you."

"He is in charge of the rain-controlling affairs of Jisai State, so it is not convenient for him to travel all the way to Uttarakuru to see you."

"If you have time, you should go back to Bibotan."

The Bull Demon King spoke earnestly, with a hint of concern in his tone like an elder.

“Well, Uncle Bull Demon King, Ao Yao knows.”

Princess Halloween looked well-behaved and responded.

Then, her eyes inadvertently passed over the Bull Demon King, and finally fixed on Xiao Chen. After hesitating for a moment, she opened her mouth and asked:

"I wonder where this Golden Horn King's hometown is?"

"I am from the Dongsheng Divine Continent, from Kanyuan Mountain."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen answered frankly.

A person's name is like the shadow of a tree. His name, the Golden Horn King of Kanyuan Mountain, is known to everyone in Dongsheng Shenzhou. There is nothing to hide.

"Dongsheng Shenzhou, Kanyuan Mountain..."

Princess Wansheng was stunned when she heard this, and her heart was slightly shocked. She had originally hidden in the pool near Kanyuan Mountain in Dongsheng Shenzhou.

Could it be that this King of Golden Horns is the little golden-horned toad monster?
However, the Xiao Chen in front of her had an extraordinary temperament, which was very different from the image of the fat, ugly little toad monster covered with poisonous bumps in her memory.

"Speaking of which, Brother Jinjiao has a good relationship with your father, according to seniority."

"You should call him Uncle Golden Horn."

The Bull Demon King laughed and began to introduce.

"Sister Wansheng, let's go."

At this moment, the voice of Nine-Headed Jin Ni was heard, interrupting Princess Halloween's thoughts.

Wan Sheng looked up and saw that the Nine-Headed Jin Ni, the Nine-Headed Qing Yun and a group of demon soldiers and generals had already been reorganized and were waiting for her at the foot of the mountain.

Uttarakuru, this continent is a paradise for monsters and ferocious beasts, but it also hides countless dangers.

Many ferocious beasts were contaminated by miasma and filthy air, becoming extremely brutal and completely irrational.

After all, Princess Halloween’s cultivation is still in its infancy, but it is undoubtedly unwise for her to travel alone in this dangerous place.

"Sister Jin Ni, I'm here."

At this time, she had no choice but to put aside her doubts and reunite with the Nine-Headed Jin Ni and other monsters.

Looking at the "Buzhou Abyss" and "Buzhou Island" not far away, a trace of unwillingness flashed in the eyes of the Nine-Headed Golden Ni.

Nine-headed Jin Ni sighed softly:
"That treasure is almost ripe."

"We don't have much time."

"I'm afraid Demon King Jiao and Demon King Kun have already been waiting in Buzhou Abyss."

"This Lion's Roar Mountain is not far from Buzhou Island, and the spiritual energy is so abundant."

"It's a pity to lose such a good place to stay when the treasure hunt is imminent."

Jiushou Qingjun heard this and smiled gently, saying comfortingly:
"Sister, it's okay. This Lion's Roar Mountain originally belonged to the Lion King, not to us. Now that it has been returned to its original owner, it's fine."

"Besides, we have the magic weapon left by our father. We may have a chance of winning."

Upon hearing this, Fei Ni looked at Bull Demon King and also spoke:

"I think the Bull Demon King is really capable. During the battle just now, I carefully observed his prototype and recognized his footsteps."

"He is from the lineage of the ten great ancient beasts, the 獓因 lineage."

"Among our ten great demon saints, the Chitie lineage also belongs to the Qiongqi lineage of the ten ancient fierce beasts, and is almost of the same origin as the Xieyin."

"Moreover, Chitie and the Bull Demon King are both in the shape of giant horned bulls, with similar shapes and physiques."

“It further illustrates the kinship between them.”

Having said that, Fei Ni paused for a moment, then continued:

"The lineage of the Demon Saint Chitie is now short of talent, and there has been no 'inherited demon' who can inherit their mantle."

"If we can lead this Bull Demon King to the lineage of Demon Saint Chitie, it will not only inject new vitality into them."

"We will also gain a powerful ally."

When Nine-headed Jin Ni heard this, her eyes lit up. She was obviously very interested in Fei Ni's proposal. She smiled and said:

"What Fei Ni said makes sense."

"Let's go and find the Iron Clan."

"Let the Chitie lineage come find the Bull Demon King."

Jiushou Qingjun looked at Xiao Chen, also thoughtful.

She had fought with the Golden Horn King before, so she naturally knew his strength. It would be good if she could make him an ally.

……

The shocking showdown at Lion's Roar Mountain and the clash between several great Taiyi demons were so loud that it was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples to spread quickly.

The news gradually spread among the monsters in Uttarakuru.

They marveled at the bravery of those young foreign monsters, and were filled with endless curiosity about the final winner, the King of Golden Horn.

And in the extreme north of Uttarakuru, deep in the North Sea, there is a magnificent Demon Master's Palace hidden.

In the Demon Master’s Palace.

The Demon King Mo Lang was sitting upright on the throne with his eyes closed.

Soon, the Dragon Demon King opened his eyes and was about to get up and rush to the Buzhou Abyss.

At this time, the conversation of the boys under his door attracted his attention.

"I heard there was a bull monster that was a hundred feet tall. It was so huge that it could flatten a mountain."

A boy said in amazement.

"What do you mean by a hundred feet? That's a thousand feet. It's said to be as big as our 'His Majesty Kun'."

The other boy corrected, his eyes sparkling with adoration.

"No way, don't talk nonsense, do you know how old our Prince Kun is?"

An older boy questioned, obviously skeptical about the size of the bull monster. He was unwilling to believe that there was a monster that could be compared to their Lord Kun.

"Haven't you heard that Kun is so big..."

A naughty boy was just about to make a joke.

"Cough cough cough..."

Another boy interrupted with a cough.

“It’s just huge.”

The naughty boy had to change his words, which caused everyone to laugh.

"I heard that in the end a monster named Golden Horn won."

"Jinjiao Jinjiao, with horns on his head and together with the bull monster, I think he is also a bull monster."

A well-informed boy revealed, his tone full of awe.

"Tell me, if we really compare them, who is more powerful, this group of bull monsters or us princes?"

A curious boy asked, sparking a heated discussion among the crowd. They speculated on the strength comparison between the princes and the group of bull monsters, and expressed their own opinions.

……

They were excitedly discussing the battle at Lion's Roar Mountain and the appearance of several young demons from the outside world, including the Bull Demon King, the Monkey King, and the Golden Horn King.

Upon hearing this, the Jiao Demon King was overjoyed:
"Golden Horn?"

"Could it be that my brother Jinjiao has come to Northern Juluzhou?"
