Demons and monsters in a chaotic world: Starting from the Joyful Pavilion, the invincible path begin

Zhang Ping's interest was immediately piqued. He noticed the words "Yin Yang Beads" in the panel description and frowned.

His fingers unconsciously scraped across the dragon corpse's cold, hard scales as he pondered to himself:

"What exactly is this Yin-Yang Pearl?"

The beast pattern in the phrase "Yin Yang He Shen Tian Du Ming Du" seems to have absolutely nothing to do with dragons, so how did it appear on a dragon corpse? And how could it be branded?

He couldn't figure it out. Zhang Ping mobilized all the moisture inside the dragon's corpse, carefully examining it inside and out, but he couldn't find anything that looked like a bead.

"Could it be an ability this poison dragon acquired in the past? Or a talent it cultivated?" He stroked his chin.

If that's the case, then it makes sense.

No wonder the Poison Dragon was able to create a large number of dragonborn to rule the Western Poison Forest in such a short time; it turns out it relied on this kind of talent.

"It was a pleasant surprise."

He suddenly thought of Fu Huiying and Lu Wanrou's cultivation problems. These two women had very poor cultivation talent, and their progress was always slow, even their love life was falling behind his pace.

If we could brand this beast pattern, it would solve this problem.

He opened the list of materials needed for branding animal patterns; there were three in total.

[Required materials: Dragon Root, Essence Gu, Sea God Stone]

Without hesitation, Zhang Ping separated the thing between the Poison Dragon's legs and wrapped it in a block of ice formed from a large amount of water vapor.

Muya, who had been watching the whole thing from the side, felt a burning sensation in her ears and silently lowered her head.

Zhang Ping glanced at the beast patterns displayed on the panel. "Vast Life Force" and "Eye Flame" were quite good and worth acquiring.

The ability of bloodline offspring can eliminate reproductive barriers, so what use is this thing to him?

Could it be...? Never mind, that's too much.

Dragon scale armor is unnecessary. The poison dragon's defense is decent, but not top-tier; it's significantly weaker than the Black Tortoise Armor.

As for the "Dragon Force Mark," Zhang Ping decided to keep it. Although Dragon Force wasn't the Poison Dragon's strongest talent, its base strength was far superior to that of other exotic beasts and demons. He could always switch to something more suitable later.

After selecting all the animal patterns to be branded and carefully storing the materials taken from the poisonous dragon, Zhang Ping turned around and looked at Mu Ya, who was waiting to the side.

"Where do you plan to plant the Demon Spirit Tree?" He gestured around with his finger. He meant for Muya to choose a spot near Dragon Mountain, or perhaps plant it on Dragon Mountain itself.

The environment surrounding Longshan is the best in the Western Poison Forest, with fertile soil and abundant energy in the air. The effect of transporting qi and blood here is much stronger than in other places.

Otherwise, the Poison Dragon wouldn't have chosen this place as its lair.

Another reason is that the dragon corpse is too big, a full three hundred meters long! Zhang Ping can't possibly carry it around everywhere. Not to mention the effort involved, the strange beasts it attracts along the way would be troublesome enough.

"Right here!" Muya had obviously thought of this as well. The mountaintop beneath their feet had long been leveled by the battle and piled high with the corpses of strange beasts, all of which were excellent nutrients for the Demon Spirit Tree.

She chose the very center seat and told Zhang Ping about her plans.

Zhang Ping didn't pay attention. He had noticed during the battle that these beasts didn't have any particularly outstanding abilities, and as for their material value... he couldn't take too much with him.

Muya carefully dug a hole in the ground and placed the seed in it. Then she cut her wrist and soaked the seed in her blood. Her beautiful eyes were solemn as she looked up and said, "That's enough. Next, you need to keep watering it with dragon blood, about half the amount of the dragon's blood."

"Then plant two," Zhang Ping said decisively.

Upon hearing this, Muya pursed her red lips, glanced at him, and firmly remembered the agreement between them. The guilt she felt from using her people as collaborators earlier had also lessened considerably.

She obediently walked several hundred meters away and planted another seed of the demon spirit tree.

Seeing that Muya was ready, Zhang Ping raised his hand and drained all the blood from the dragon corpse. Together with the blood extracted during the previous battle, he divided it into two huge green blood balls, which were suspended in mid-air.

The blood sphere was wrapped in his authority and power, plus a layer of scorching black blood energy to prevent greedy birds and beasts from stealing it.

A small opening appeared at the bottom of each blood cell, from which the bright green dragon blood slowly flowed, watering the seeds.

The moment the seed came into contact with the dragon's blood, the patterns on its surface instantly came to life, wriggling and blurring. Then it broke through the shell and stretched out several roots full of vitality.

The roots grew rapidly, intertwining to form a tiny mouth that caught every drop of the dripping dragon blood.

This sight made Zhang Ping smirk.

Saving and not wasting, yes, it's a good seed.

"You stay here and keep watch. If you encounter any monsters you can't handle, call me."

Leaving behind a single sentence, Zhang Ping vanished in a flash.

He walked through the stench of the beast corpses scattered everywhere, his brow furrowed, and he couldn't help but raise a shield to block out the foul smell.

Find the entrance to the dragon's lair in the ruins.

The entrance to the cave had collapsed, and boulders of varying sizes blocked the way in. However, some space could still be seen through the gaps inside.

Zhang Ping waved his hand to stabilize the ruins and prevent them from collapsing further. He then cleared away the rubble, carving out a path from the opening.

He cleaned as he walked. After walking for several miles, he finally arrived at the cave where the poisonous dragon had originally been entrenched.

The rocks surrounding the cave were of an unknown material, but they were exceptionally sturdy. Even though most of them had collapsed, they still managed to hold up some space.

The entire cave looks like the ruins of a huge palace that has just been smashed. Like it was brand new.

The ground was littered with the carcasses of small birds and animals, as well as various materials.

Zhang Ping casually kicked aside a monkey carcass and bent down to pick up a red stone that was pressing down on the carcass.

"Dragon blood stone?"

He raised an eyebrow. This thing is extremely precious! Last time, in order to imprint the Black Dragon bloodline, he spent a huge sum of money to get a piece from Nangong Feiyan.

Only pure-blooded dragons can be born from the blood of pure-blooded dragons; poison dragons must have been collected from other sources.

Thinking of this, he glanced around at the fallen beasts. Sure enough, they all carried some good stuff. Some of the beasts weren't quite dead yet, just unconscious, and some had even woken up, trembling and pretending to be dead when they saw him come in.

Zhang Ping was speechless. These beasts were incredibly audacious, daring to rob his treasure trove amidst the chaos?

With a casual wave of his hand, the beast that had been feigning death on the ground suddenly twitched and turned into a real corpse.

He gathered up the scattered materials one by one. There were rare medicinal herbs, rare ores, and some specially treated parts of exotic beasts.

One of them even contained a dried-up snake carcass.

Looking at the mountain of precious materials before him, Zhang Ping's face showed a hint of emotion.

"Dragons hide treasure... So the rumor was true."

The spirit wood was still being cultivated, and these things couldn't be transported away in the short term. So he simply used his power to blast out a small secret chamber in the corner of the collapsed cave to store these materials.

However, there are quite a few materials needed for branding animal patterns, so we need to carefully select them.
