Chapter 699 The Five Elements Flags Gather

Five-colored auspicious clouds emerged from beneath the giant deer's feet, and in an instant, it soared into the sky, its head raised and then lowered, a burst of five-colored light like thunder and lightning piercing the sky, resembling a colorful rainbow.

"Master, this spell can be used for both offense and defense. It can divide the power of the five elements, dissolve incoming spells, resist attacks from slowing magic weapons, and when struck by light, it can also disrupt the magic power within the enemy's body."

To break this spell, most of the five elements' defensive methods will be ineffective, because the spell incorporates all five elements, and can only be countered by using stronger force.

Aside from special spells and magical artifacts, it is extremely difficult to defend against.

The five-colored deer spoke with arrogance, possessing limited but powerful knowledge of its bloodline inheritance.

Ji An carefully examined the tamed beast, thinking to himself:
'If you didn't look like a deer, I would have thought you were a peacock.'

This spell is very similar to Kong Xuan's Five-Colored Divine Light in the Investiture of the Gods. It is said to be able to sweep away and destroy anything within the Five Elements and can collect magical treasures and living things.

He began to clap his hands. "Very good. From now on, you will be in charge of the plots of land in the small world and Crimson Flame Peak where gold-elemental spiritual plants are grown."

He had been cultivating for hundreds of years but had not found the magic of planting metal elements. Now he had found a strong man to help him.

A sly glint flashed in the Five-Colored Deer's eyes. "I'm willing to work, but I'll need to exchange various high-grade third-tier spirit fruits for it."

"hehe!"

Ji An shook his head and chuckled, then beckoned with his finger:

"Come down here, let's settle the score properly and see how much good food you've eaten from me over the years, and how many Five Qi Pills you've consumed."

This is outrageous! I can give it to you, but you can't take it.

A third-grade superior spiritual fruit is a resource that only late-stage Golden Core cultivators are qualified to consume.

The five-colored deer immediately changed its expression, "Just kidding, I was just saying."

As a spirit beast with a balanced internal five elements, it can sense the powerful energy contained within its master.

They cannot resist, nor dare they resist.

Lianshan Zhenjun smiled wryly, "He has no backbone at all."

"Admitting defeat so quickly?" Ji An slightly pursed his lips and asked again:
"What types of spells and magical artifacts cannot be defended against by your spells?"

"Magic treasures and spells that possess both the five elements and non-five elements."

Lianshan Zhenjun added from the side:

"These kinds of things are very rare. Only when you can embark on the path of the stars will there be more cultivators who possess them."

Do you still remember the method for forging the Five Elements Divine Mountain left by our patriarch? The Divine Mountain possesses all five elements; when attacked, it can suppress the flow of the five elements' power within the enemy's body.

He had studied the refining process of the Five Elements Divine Mountain in detail. It had very high requirements for materials, and he had never heard of most of them before.

The effects of magical artifacts are simple and direct; all the restrictions on these artifacts are aimed at the ultimate goal of suppression. To achieve this goal, the magical artifacts are extremely sturdy, and they are also suitable as defensive artifacts when thrown out.

Using magical artifacts like the Imperial Guardian consumes a terrifying amount of magical power and spiritual energy, making it suitable for crucial moments where a decisive blow can be delivered.

"I must forge the Five Elements Divine Mountain if I have the chance!"

Ji An said with a smile that he likes simple things, and he likes simple and straightforward things even more.

Just like playing games, there's a thrill in skillful gameplay, but he prefers overwhelming opponents with superior equipment.

"Let's go out."

With a wave of his hand, he rode the clouds and carried the True Lord to the edge of the small world, while his beasts flamboyantly "ran back and forth" amidst the auspicious five-colored clouds.

Once outside the cave, he took off the gourd-shaped stone pendant, hung it on the antlers of his beast, and carefully wrapped it around the antlers.

"Breaking through the legal restrictions once again."

The gourd stone is the carrier of the small world. The laws inside are perfected, making it a third-grade high-quality spiritual vein. It must have sufficient structural stability, so there is no need to worry about problems when crossing a third-grade low-quality magic array.

The five-colored deer understood its master's meaning, and its body shimmered with five-colored light, covering its entire body and also enveloping the surface of the gourd stone.

"YoYo!"

It let out a triumphant cry ahead of time, and strode gracefully towards its cave.

The light barrier of the magic circle opened a gap, as naturally as raindrops merging into river water.

The five-colored deer poked its head out again, revealing a mouthful of white teeth and a huge scarlet mouth. Its antlers shone brightly, creating a stunning light and shadow effect.

True Lord Lianshan asked softly:

"Do you intend to one day have your tamed beasts carry you through the forbidden realms?"

"We have such a plan."

"If there are other options, try not to do this."

From now on, the magic arrays you face will all be guided by the earth's veins, reflecting the sun, moon, and stars in the sky. No one can say for sure what kind of deadly dangers might lurk inside the magic array.

If there is no danger, it's fine, but if danger occurs, people in the small world cannot detect it immediately, which may put them in danger.

Once you break through to the Nascent Soul realm, you can prioritize studying the Golden Light of Earth. Furthermore, the inherited talismans include barrier-breaking talismans; since you also practice talisman-making, you can draw them yourself.

Listening to his elder's teachings, Ji An nodded solemnly, "Thank you for the reminder, True Lord. I will keep it in mind."

He summoned his beast and instructed it, "Take care of the spirit fields on the west side of the mountain. From now on, pay attention to the retention of magical intent and cast spells on time. The spirit plants will thrive, and you will benefit from that."

The Heavenly Demon Alliance, a cave dwelling atop a mountain.

Chen Xingzhou sat on a large mahogany chair carved with a hundred monkeys and said authoritatively:
"Xianrong, did you get the things?"

The man with a monkey-like face took out a black wine jar-like object, held it above his head with both hands, and said with a flattering smile:

"Thanks to the clan leader, everything is going smoothly." Chen Xingzhou used his object manipulation technique to place the jar beside him, opened it, smelled the aroma, and a blissful smile appeared on his face.

The old clan chief was severely injured in a battle with a demon beast and died not long after. He succeeded Chen as the clan chief.

The Chen family of Puyun Mountain has long since vanished, and now they are the Fire Ape clan of the Heavenly Demon Alliance.

He took out a blood-red pill the size of an egg and tossed it out, saying:
"Here you go!"

For demon cultivators to improve their cultivation, they should focus on two aspects: blood and qi, and demonic power.

This was something he obtained through a private transaction with Yun Nianrong. After refining this jar of spiritual blood, it could nourish one's blood and qi, and rapidly increase one's strength.

Chen Xianrong excitedly caught the pill, licked it, and grinned:
"Thank you for the reward, Chief."

This is a second-tier top-grade Blood Essence Pill, a rare and precious medicine for him.

"Do your job well, and you'll be rewarded with plenty of such favors in the future."

But if I find out you've leaked transaction information, I don't need to say more about the consequences, right?

"The clan chief chose me for the transaction because he knows I'm a tight-lipped person. Once I leave the cave, I'll clear all the transaction information."

Chen Xingzhou nodded in satisfaction and waved his hand, saying:
"Go down."

These are the clansmen who were brought out back then, and they are now the backbone of the Fire Ape clan.

"Yes," Chen Xianrong said, bowing and leaving quickly.

Only Chen Xingzhou remained in the cave. He revealed his true form as a fire ape, standing two zhang tall, with arms as thick as buckets and thighs like small water vats.

He doesn't look like an ape anymore; instead, he looks just like a strong gorilla.

His clothes were instantly torn apart. He grabbed the tiger-skin rug spread on the ground and wrapped it around his waist. It was a rug made of more than a dozen demon tiger skins.

He sighed helplessly, "We need to order a set of magical artifacts that can change size according to the body."

Although the Chen family was a family of weapon refiners, he was not a weapon refiner, and the weapon refiners in the family were not capable of refining magic weapons that met his requirements.

The Heavenly Demon Alliance also lacks weapon refiners. Not only weapon refiners, but all professional "talents" who have mastered advanced cultivation techniques are lacking.

The families that submitted to the Heavenly Demon Alliance back then were all small families or independent cultivators with extremely shallow foundations.

The Heavenly Demon Alliance is based on these forces and is extremely lacking in high-level inheritance.

Chen Xingzhou made a hand seal, and the black wine jar grew larger and larger until it was as big as a water vat.

The wine jar is a second-tier top-grade spiritual artifact, specifically designed to hold fluids such as water and blood.

He lifted the jar, tilted his head back, and with a "glug, glug" sound, he drank two-tenths of the blood inside without taking a breath.

"Hehe, how could those self-proclaimed clever guys possibly know the mysteries of the Heavenly Demon Transformation Scripture?"

Chen Xingzhou knew there was something wrong with the spirit blood, not because he had discovered anything, but because he knew that the spiritual item he had traded to Yun Nianrong was not worth the price, and was far from it.

Is the other party losing money to gain publicity? Impossible, they must be hiding other methods.

However, the Heavenly Demon Transformation Scripture can 'purify' all the impurities contained in the blood, and then assimilate the blood into a power under one's control.

If he weren't smart, he would have been defeated long ago in the battles against demonic beasts within the Heavenly Demon Alliance or in the internal struggles for resources.

Chen Xingzhou activated the Heavenly Demon Transformation Scripture to refine spiritual blood, his spine undulating like a great dragon, his bones and muscles cracking like thunder.

A surge of vital energy welled up within him, and the sound was like a waterfall with a drop of hundreds of feet.

His crimson mane flew wildly, like thin, red-hot wires, and his entire body resembled a burning torch.

The surrounding air was distorted by the high temperature, but the animal hide around the waist and the other items in the cave were completely unaffected.

One month later, at the Fire Cloud Cave on Red Copper Mountain.

Ji An descended on a cloud, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar name above the cave, and smiled silently.

The characters are deep red, and judging from the marks, they were carved not long ago.

A young Taoist boy wearing a crimson jade hairpin stood guard outside the cave. Upon seeing him, he stepped forward neither servilely nor arrogantly, and bowed, saying:
"Is it Ancestor Xuanqing in person?"

"Yes, Junior Brother Qin asked me to come here today."

"My master instructed me to wait here. Please come inside, Ancestor."

The young Taoist led the way, and after walking for a while in the cave, they stopped in front of a stone gate painted with ice-blue runes.

He made hand seals, and the stone gate rose upwards, releasing a plume of white mist that quickly condensed into a layer of frost on the ground.

The faint sound of running water could be heard from inside the room.

The jade hairpin on the Taoist boy's head emitted a warm, reddish light, blocking the white mist from entering.

"Ancestor, Master is inside. Please come in. This disciple is too weak to go in."

Ji An stepped into the room and immediately saw a black banner floating in pale blue flames.

Qin Yan turned his head, his hair and beard all white as if dyed by snow.

"Senior brother, it will be completed once you perform the blood sacrifice."

"Let's begin then," Ji An smiled and used the Golden Light Technique to cut the blood vessels in his wrist. Like a high-pressure faucet being turned on, golden blood gushed out.

Half an hour later, an indescribable roar of a beast rang out, and a black flag began to flutter around him.

The flag's surface shimmered with the light of the water, and the sound of the waves surged and roared.
