Chapter 258 Golden Toad Ancestor
After a few breaths, the dark valley returned to calm.

Such a weird scene made Qin Ming feel creepy.

Is Xiao Zhongren gone just like that?

Even a cultivator as powerful as the Golden Core Patriarch couldn't even struggle.

However, Qin Ming could feel that the terrifying existence in the cave seemed to be trapped by the black iron pillar and could not get out at all, and the distance of the blood-red tongue was also limited, only a dozen feet.

Xiao Zhongren was unlucky enough as he happened to be standing near the black iron pillar.

at this time.

The green spirit that was covered by the red net-like magic weapon, without Xiao Zhongren's control, broke free from the magic weapon and was about to flee into the depths of the abyss.

"Want to run?!"

Qin Ming's eyes were sharp. He had gone to such great lengths and risked his life to enter this place. Wasn't it just for this?

How can we let it run away?

He immediately disappeared from the spot, performed the blood escape technique, and instantly appeared above the green weapon spirit.

Upon seeing this, the spirit of the weapon opened its mouth and spewed out a green mysterious light towards Qin Ming.

In an instant.

The scenery in front of Qin Ming suddenly changed. Three ghost shadows emerged from the void and blocked Qin Ming.

The three ghosts’ faces were as pale as ice, and they were filled with a sinister aura. Their strength had actually reached the level of fake pills.

They were Xu Yang and the other two whose souls had just been sucked away by the green spirit.

No one knew how the spirit of the weapon did it, but it could instantly raise the soul and physical strength of three people to a higher level.

Seeing this, Qin Ming didn't think much and directly released the Black Water Crocodile and Silver-Winged Frost Bee.

It's sizzling!

boom!
The moment the Black Water Crocodile appeared, it opened its huge mouth and a thick silver lightning bolt was instantly emitted, hitting one of the haunted houses opposite.

Silver Wing also flapped its six wings and charged towards the opposite side.

Qin Ming was not in a hurry. He opened his mouth and spit out a third-level soul-devouring poisonous flame, which flew out and turned into a blue-green firebird. It flew towards the strongest ghost among them, the one that Xu Yang had transformed into.

In an instant.

Spells explode, lightning and thunder!
Boom Kaka!
The lightning emitted by the black water crocodile instantly shattered one of the ghosts into pieces, and the ice melted away.

Its lightning power far exceeds ordinary spells and is especially deadly to evil spirits of the Yin attribute.

Qin Ming's third-order soul-devouring poisonous flame was even more ferocious. With a flash of fire, the ghost that Xu Yang had transformed into was burned to ashes.

It only took him a moment to get rid of the three ghosts, and even the cunning spirit of the weapon didn't have time to react.

The hedgehog-shaped spirit of the weapon was suddenly startled, and the light and shadow squirmed, instantly transforming into hundreds of green light balls that were difficult to distinguish between real and fake, and scattered in all directions.

"Another illusion?"

In this situation, if it were an ordinary cultivator, he would definitely be helpless.

However, performing magic in front of him would be a bit of a show-off!
Qin Ming's eyes suddenly opened, and two rays of red light shot out, shining on the green light ball.

Those green light balls that were running around were instantly fixed!

Afterwards, the red light became brighter and brighter, and countless green lights were all wiped out by Qin Ming's law-breaking double pupils!
Only a hedgehog-shaped ball of light was left, frozen in the corner, unable to move.

Qin Ming was just about to take it down.

But something strange happened again!
The weapon spirit suddenly burst out with a golden divine light, which actually broke Qin Ming's magic-breaking light.

Then the golden divine light transformed into three fire crows, emitting astonishing warmth and rushing straight towards Qin Ming.

It seemed that his series of actions had forced the spirit of the weapon into a panic, and it started to take real action.

The golden divine crow gave people a terrifying feeling that if they were touched, they would be reduced to ashes.

Even Qin Ming didn't dare to confront it head-on and could only use his body skills to dodge the Fire Crow's attack.

"Is this still a method used by a weapon spirit?"

"I'm afraid that the Golden Core Ancestor's methods are only this good, right?"

The spirit of the Magatama Golden Light Mirror took back the golden fire crow, and then the green spikes around it flashed and turned into countless green rays that fell towards Qin Ming.

And the speed is incredibly fast, arriving in an instant.

hum~
There was a slight shock in Qin Ming's mind, and then he swept his mind, and all the green thorns in front of him were blocked outside.

"Soul attack!"

He also didn't expect that the weapon spirit had so many tricks up its sleeve that it even mastered soul-based attacks.

Fortunately, his soul, through the strengthening of entries, far surpassed that of the cultivators of the same level, otherwise he would have been in real trouble.

The weapon spirit on the opposite side saw that the green light it emitted had no effect on the ordinary-looking cultivator in front of it, and could not help but stand there in a daze.

Qin Ming narrowed his eyes, and while it was distracted, he used a spell to imprison it.

In order to avoid any further complications, he immediately took out a jade bottle, reached out his hand, captured the spirit of the vessel, and then sealed it up.

There was a violent struggle inside the bottle, but the outcome was already decided.

At this point, Qin Ming went to great lengths and finally subdued the spirit of the Xuanyu Jinguan Mirror.

With the help of the Black Water Crocodile and Silver Wing, the Sky-Devouring Rat also broke free from the Demon-Trapping Ring and came to Qin Ming.

"Hey~ This is really weird."

"This broken thing can actually block the demonic power, making me unable to use any strength at all."

Then it handed the third-grade intermediate-quality talisman, the Demon-Trapping Ring, to Qin Ming.

Qin Ming took the talisman and looked at it, and found that this talisman had been used twice and could be used one last time.

However, considering Old Yan's cultivation level at the Fake Dan realm, he was not hesitant to burn his essence and blood, and exhaust his magic power to fully unleash the power of this treasure.

The cost of using this high-level talisman is not small. If one uses it forcibly with a cultivation level lower than the Jindan stage, one will lose half his life if he does not die.

"I haven't eaten the flesh and blood of a Jindan cultivator for thousands of years. It's so delicious."

"Hey, hey, funny little guy."

"He actually subdued the weapon spirit." "And he also possesses a third-level heavenly and earthly spiritual fire with great potential."

In the darkness, a sound like a broken gong rang out.

Qin Ming's nerves suddenly tensed up. He looked in the direction of the sound and saw a pair of huge scarlet eyes reappear in the black hole.

And this time, the existence in the darkness fully revealed its true identity.

It was a huge golden toad demon king, emitting a terrifying aura. Qin Ming had never felt this kind of aura from any of the Jindan ancestors.

Although it appears to be only at the initial third stage of cultivation, it was able to ruthlessly devour Xiao Zhongren, a Jindan cultivator, with ease. There must be another mystery behind this.

Moreover, it is very intelligent and can speak human language just like the Sky-Eating Rat.

Qin Ming took his three pets and flew away without saying a word.

But at this moment.

In the canyon, there seemed to be an invisible force descending, forming an invisible barrier, completely blocking the path Qin Ming came from.

Qin Ming frowned, an unpleasant expression appearing on his face.

"Hey hey hey,"

"Don't look at it. You can't get out with the weapon spirit on you."

The voice from the black hole sounded again.

"Come over and talk?!"

Then, in Qin Ming's sight, the figure of the Golden Toad Demon King trapped behind the iron pillar shrank and gradually transformed into an octogenarian old man.

The skin was dry and had raised spots like those on a toad.

When Qin Ming saw this scene, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised that the other party could actually change into a human form at will.

And only a few characteristics of monsters are retained.

This is enough to show that the original strength of this Golden Toad Demon King should be about to reach the level of a transformed great demon.

The Sky-Eating Rat was watching from the side with an extremely alert look on its face. It smelled an extremely dangerous scent from the golden toad.

"Let me introduce myself. I am the Golden Toad Ancestor. I have been imprisoned here for thousands of years."

The Golden Toad Demon King transformed into an octogenarian and looked Qin Ming up and down with great interest, as if he wanted to see through him.

“It’s actually the foundation-building stage.”

"It looks like the little guy has a great chance!"

Qin Ming did not panic when he heard this. He asked expressionlessly, "Did you send out that bronze mirror fragment?"

"Hehe, that's right!"

"That is what I scattered. I wanted to lure a large number of monks here."

"That way I could have a good meal and recover my strength, but I never thought that the two pieces of magic weapon fragments fell into your hands."

“It’s God’s will!”

"However, little one, you don't have to doubt it. The fragment is indeed the Magatama Golden Mirror without a doubt."

"The treasure refining techniques in it are also real, otherwise you wouldn't have come here."

"Hey hey hey!"

Qin Ming frowned upon hearing this, "So, the Magatama Golden Mirror magic weapon is also real?"

"That's right. If you don't produce the real stuff, it won't be so easy for you human cultivators to take the bait." The Golden Toad Patriarch said with a weird smile.

Qin Ming's eyes flickered, his mind raced as he pondered the truth of the other party's words.

Naturally, he would not believe everything that the Golden Toad Patriarch said.

After all, the opponents are old monsters who have lived for thousands of years and are almost veteran existences. Chengfu is very scheming and if you are not careful, you can be killed by it in minutes.

It seems that the person who could trap an existence like the Golden Toad Ancestor here for thousands of years must be even more powerful.

"Little guy, why don't we make a deal?"

"I can tell you how to repair the mirror and how to get out of here."

"How about you help me get out of this trouble?"

Qin Ming fell into deep thought upon hearing this.

When Ancestor Jin Chan saw Qin Ming was hesitant, his eyes flickered and he raised the stakes:
"I can give you the subsequent skills of the "Heavenly Demon Form Refining Strategy"!"

"Just now I saw your eyes that could break the law. It should be the magical power of the demon race, right?"

The Golden Toad Patriarch seemed to understand this very well, and spoke in a gentle and persuasive voice.

Qin Ming was almost unmoved by the previous promise, but when the Golden Toad Ancestor mentioned the "Heavenly Demon Form Refining Strategy".

My heart was pounding!
"How's it going, little one?"

"We met by fate, and we each took what we needed. After we get out, we will go our separate ways on the road to heaven."

When the Golden Toad Patriarch saw a rare change in Qin Ming's expression, he knew that he was about to take the bait.

The corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise a curve.

"Don't promise it."

"Otherwise you will die!"

at this time!

A sudden voice sounded in Qin Ming's mind.

Qin Ming was also stunned, because he had never heard this voice before, and it did not come from the Sky-Devouring Rat.

It was an unfamiliar voice, and the tone seemed a bit cold and mechanical.

Qin Ming immediately looked for the source of the sound, but was shocked to find that it came from the hedgehog-shaped spirit he had just subdued!
