Yuantian Pidao

Chapter 219 A Three-Pronged Approach
Under the cover of night, amidst the misty swamp, the battle continued.

"Petrification Technique!"

Nearly exhausted, Black King Kong, unwilling to die, unleashed his strongest spell once again.

The next instant, the surrounding earth and rocks surged and converged on him, transforming him once again into a small giant three zhang tall.

"kill."

With a stomp on the ground, Black King Kong, now transformed into a giant, slammed a powerful punch at Jiang Chen.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen casually flicked his tail, sending him flying again.

It must be said that Black King Kong's mastery of several spells was quite good. Although none of them were extremely profound or superior spells, after he combined them, they formed a decent combat system.

With the Stone Statue Technique as its core, combined with Stone Armor Technique, Giant Strength Technique, and Stone Spike Technique, he possesses considerable defensive and offensive capabilities in battle. It is not easy for ordinary people to defeat him in a short time, and if the battle drags on, they can easily be worn down and killed by him.

Unfortunately, Jiang Chen's dragon body was too powerful; he was not afraid of Black King Kong with just his physical strength.

"It's time to end this. If we drag this out any longer, the Yellow Wind Cult cultivators in Fengcao Valley will start to notice something is wrong."

After confirming the changes in the outside world, Jiang Chen's killing intent began to surge.

The next instant, he opened his mouth and gently exhaled, and a silvery-white light quietly bloomed.

With a whoosh, the Frost Moon Blade materialized, like a newly born moon, scattering rays of cold light. As Jiang Chen circulated his sword technique, it instantly condensed into dozens of sword lights that hurtled towards the Black Vajra.

Upon seeing this scene, Black King Kong's expression changed drastically. He had been secretly on guard against Jiang Chen's Cold Light Technique. Although that spell was domineering, he was good at defense. If he could seize that moment, he might be able to escape. He never expected that Jiang Chen would also know the flying sword technique.

"How could a dragon possess a flying sword..."

Filled with a sense of absurdity, Black King Kong almost thought he had fallen under an illusion again.

However, as the sword lights fell, he quickly realized that he had not misread it; the Frost Dragon did indeed know the art of flying swords, and it was extremely sharp.

With a whoosh, sword light flashed, and in the blink of an eye, the giant that Black King Kong had transformed into was completely dismembered. At that moment, Black King Kong wished he was just under an illusion, but unfortunately he wasn't.

As a sword flashed across his neck, his head flew off, and Black King Kong fell silent.

"As expected, even without using the power of spiritual revival, I can still unleash the full power of killing with just my flying sword."

The dragon claw reached out and lifted up the returning Frost Moon. Looking at the fallen body of Black King Kong, Jiang Chen had a series of thoughts flashing through his mind. He had fought Black King Kong before but had not awakened its spirituality. This was something he had prepared for Huang Feng Sanren, but the other party had not appeared.

"Is Huang Feng Sanren's frequent trips to Qingyuan County suggest a close relationship with the Wen family?"

Grasping Black King Kong's soul, Jiang Chen began to project his memories onto him.

"If Huang Feng Sanren really is that person from the Wen family, then everything makes sense."

After the soul search was completed, Jiang Chen carefully checked the time and seemed to be deep in thought.

This Black King Kong may seem crude, but he's actually quite shrewd. Having followed Huang Feng Sanren for so long, he, like Hua Niangzi, has also noticed some unusual things about Huang Feng Sanren, though he's kept it well hidden. "This can be considered an unexpected gain."

Shaking his head, Jiang Chen temporarily suppressed his thoughts.

"Go and widen the gaps in the Fengcao Valley's formation."

After retrieving accurate information about Fengcao Valley from Black King Kong's memories and handing it over to Rat Tianjiao, Jiang Chen gave the order.

Although Rat Pride managed to sneak into the outer array of Fengcao Valley by opening a small hole with his good teeth, he was still far from actually destroying the array.

Upon hearing this, without hesitation, Rat Tianjiao immediately headed back towards Fengcao Valley.

"Black King Kong is dead. Without his protection, it is impossible for the remaining Yellow Wind Cult cultivators to defend Fengcao Valley."

After cleaning up the battlefield and erasing all traces, Jiang Chen rode away on a cloud of mist.

His main purpose in coming here was to find the spiritual herbs in Fengcao Valley. It contained not only the original accumulation of the Feng family, but also the spoils plundered by the Huangfeng Sect from various places. Although a lot of them had been used up, there were still many precious spiritual herbs left behind for the time being.

As for killing Black King Kong, that was more of a side effect.

About half an incense stick's time later, accompanied by a streak of cold blue light that streaked across the night sky, the great formation that enveloped Fengcao Valley shattered with a deafening roar.

Without the support of the great formation, the Yellow Wind Sect cultivators who remained in Fengcao Valley were no match for Jiang Chen, who had transformed into a dragon. In a short time, some died and others fled, and soon the entire Fengcao Valley fell into complete silence and fell into Jiang Chen's hands.

"It didn't disappoint me..."

As he rode through the mist, overlooking the entire Fengcao Valley and looking at the numerous spiritual herbs, a smile appeared on Jiang Chen's face.

This time, in order to refine the Profound Aperture Pill, he also took a three-pronged approach: on the one hand, he asked the cultivation families to make offerings; on the other hand, he asked the Sand Weasel Demon to exchange some with the demons in Changfeng County on his behalf; and on the other hand, he personally took some from the Yellow Wind Sect.

"With these spiritual herbs, as long as the harvest from the Sand Weasel Demon isn't too bad, we can quickly gather most of the spiritual herbs needed to refine the Profound Aperture Pill."

"In addition, the Ding family already has a collection of the most crucial element for refining the Profound Aperture Pill, so refining the Profound Aperture Pill should still be feasible."

With various thoughts flashing through his mind, Jiang Chen collected the spiritual herbs he needed one by one.

At the same time, he spread the news, asking people from cultivation families to come here to repair the great formation and prepare for subsequent occupation. This place has a special environment, not only rich in spiritual energy, but also with water spiritual energy generated from underground rivers to nourish the land. It is a good place to cultivate spiritual herbs. He had no intention of giving it to the Yellow Wind Sect.

With the news of the killing of Black King Kong, the left protector of the Yellow Wind Sect, and the breaking of the Fengcao Valley formation, Changfeng County, which had finally calmed down for a while, was in an uproar again.

For three whole months, the Frost Dragon, in the form of Jiang Chen, focused solely on cultivation and did not step out of Yanqiu. This led many to believe that it had no intention of fighting the Yellow Wind Sect to the death, and that its previous actions were more due to the Yellow Wind Sect threatening its safety.

Some speculate that Jiang Chen deliberately kept Huang Feng's sect alive so he could better reap the benefits. Others say that although Frost Flood Dragon won the previous battle, he relied on some kind of explosive secret technique, which damaged his foundation and required recuperation. In short, there are many different opinions.

However, with Jiang Chen's intervention this time, many people's doubts were dispelled, and the name Frost Dragon was once again imprinted in everyone's minds. As for Black King Kong, just like Yellow Wind Hermit before him, he became a stepping stone for Jiang Chen to build his reputation, which was exactly what Jiang Chen wanted.

People are prone to forgetting, so if he wants to build his reputation, it's still necessary for him to leave traces from time to time.
