Being in a place without spiritual energy for a long time made Jiang Yuebai very unbearable, as if he was drowning at the bottom of the sea and could only breathe with limited air.
Only now did Jiang Yuebai understand how Lu Nanzhi had felt for having been with them all along. It was indeed difficult for her.
During the three days of waiting, Jiang Yuebai could do nothing without spiritual energy and could only take out the Hua'e Ding to study it.
She could already fully understand the magic words on it. Xiaolu took the Five Ghosts out to hunt ferocious beasts. She tried to throw the ferocious beasts that the Five Ghosts brought back into the cauldron, but the lid of the cauldron still could not be opened.
Jiang Yuebai even suspected that the demon Hun Tian was not dead yet and was hiding in the cauldron.
Or maybe this tripod is some special ancient treasure, just like the Ningguang Mirror, which requires a corresponding method to activate it.
Jiang Yuebai hoped it was the latter, but he could not ignore the possibility of the former.
To be on the safe side, she burned the Hua'e Cauldron with the Phoenix True Fire and the Earthly Evil Fire for several hours, and then used the Crimson Palace Thunder and the Gui Water Thunder to strike it wildly for a while.
It must be said that this tripod was very strong and there was no scratch on it. Finally, Jiang Yuebai asked Lu Nanzhi to use her icy magic energy to freeze it for half a day and then burn it. After repeating this for a whole day, the tripod was still the same.
In desperation, Jiang Yuebai had to use all the protective measures he could. He pressed the Ningguang Mirror on the tripod and put the two things separately in a storage bag and hung it around his waist.
During the remaining time, Jiang Yuebai used the white vine on her body to create a clone. She had grafted a plant called Guì (beauty vine) on it in the demon tribe. The root system of the plant grew like a beautiful woman with icy skin and jade-like bones, and even the meridians of the human body were exactly the same.
After the grafting, Jiang Yuebai used white vine to create a clone, which was almost indistinguishable from a real person, except that the wooden body was fragile, but it could still circulate spiritual energy. So she often used the white vine clone to try out various skills and spells, and do dangerous things.
At this time, she was ready to use the white vine clone to try to reverse the nameless magic formula on the Hua'e Cauldron to see if she could transform the demonic energy into spiritual energy.
First retrograde run, bang!
Bai Teng’s clone exploded directly, scaring Lu Nanzhi.
"You are busy, don't bother with me."
Jiang Yuebai chuckled, his white hair grew wildly behind him, and he quickly transformed into a new clone and continued trying.
A quarter of an hour later... BANG!
It exploded again!
Lu Nanzhi turned his head and looked over again. Jiang Yuebai scratched his head and laughed. Lu Nanzhi shook his head, took out the array plate and set up a soundproof barrier.
Jiang Yuebai thought for a moment, reflected on what went wrong, and continued trying.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Bai Teng's clones exploded one after another, and the demonic energy was extremely unstable. She used the 'vortex' method and the methods in the "Chaos Devouring the Sky" but still felt that something was not smooth, and there was no one to ask.
It doesn't work, it's obvious that spiritual energy can be transformed into demonic energy, so why can't demonic energy be transformed into spiritual energy
Let's say it works, her clone exploded so many times... So annoying!
Jiang Yuebai's hair was thinning out, and he felt that he had been somewhat affected by the evil spirit. He was not very stable and was very impatient.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Jiang Yuebai wrote down all his insights and reasons for failure and stopped for the time being.
During these three days, a few demon cultivators passed by, but they did not approach the rift valley and went to other places in the Black Demon Mountain. Jiang Yuebai also did not see anyone who might be Xingchou.
"Xingchou hasn't come back yet, let's go down, Anan."
The two packed up everything and set off, using the Divine Invisibility Talisman and the Turtle Breathing Talisman to hide their tracks, and followed the route that Xingchou had led before, carefully going down the rift valley.
The bone dragon was still sleeping above the restriction, and the two did not dare to get too close. Jiang Yuebai calculated the distance and the steps of the action, and after rehearsing it several times in his mind, he looked at Lu Nanzhi.
Lu Nanzhi nodded, holding the Bingpo Sword, indicating that she was ready.
After taking a deep breath, Jiang Yuebai turned her mind to the white vine clone a hundred feet away. The surrounding area was filled with demonic energy, and the maximum range she could control with her mind was only a hundred feet, which was a bit dangerous.
Bai Teng's clone took out a medicine bottle that had been prepared long ago. There was a trace of Ao Juan's blood in it, which was frozen into an ice cube by Lu Nanzhi's icy magic energy.
Jiang Yuebai decided to use Ao Juan's blood to lure away the bone dragon, on the one hand to go down to the cave, and on the other hand he had another plan.
If Ao Juan was smart enough, perhaps she could lead her dragon clan to break through the defense line in one fell swoop.
Even if it is not possible, dividing the troops into two groups will leave the Mulong and Mulong factions short of manpower. If they want to expand their manpower, they must relax the conditions, and she can take the opportunity to sneak in.
Of course, these are just her ideas for now. For now, she still needs to focus on the cave. The rest will be planned in detail after she comes out.
With his mind made up, Bai Teng's clone smashed the medicine bottle in his hand towards the centipede's nest above.
Bang!
The sound of the medicine bottle breaking echoed in the rift valley, the ice broke into pieces, and the scent of Yinglong's blood gradually filled the air.
Just like a stone falling into a calm lake, the breath that made the dragon restless spread out layer by layer. The centipedes that first discovered this breath suddenly became excited and rushed out of the caves in the mountain wall like a tide, one after another.
The first centipede swallowed Yinglong's blood in one gulp, and its entire body was immediately torn apart by the powerful breath. Cracks covered the centipede's shell. Before it could digest it, a larger centipede with a thousand legs rushed over and bit the centipede in half with its mouth open.
The centipedes huddled together densely, engaging in a bloody fight.
Hiss!
A nearby black python noticed the movement and swam out of its nest, spraying a large amount of sticky venom to corrode the centipede group.
The fighting became more and more intense. Jiang Yuebai and Lu Nanzhi clung to the mountain wall and saw two balls of black flames suddenly burning fiercely in the empty eye sockets of the bone dragon below. A dark red color bloomed in the middle of the eyes, like the vertical pupils of a snake.
Boom!
The bone dragon's huge body moved, and the entire rift shook violently. Large chunks of rock rolled down from above and almost hit the two of them several times, but were cut off by Lu Nanzhi's sword energy without a sound.
Oh!
The bone dragon roared, soared into the sky, and swallowed all the fighting centipedes and giant pythons in one gulp. The black flames burned the centipedes and giant pythons fiercely. They were trapped in the body of the bone dragon by the invisible barrier and could not escape.
But in the blink of an eye, it all turned to ashes, leaving only a trace of Yinglong's blood.
If Yinglong was here, the Bone Dragon would surely surrender, but there was only a trace of Yinglong's blood, and the power in it was not enough to subdue the Bone Dragon. It would only cause it to devour Yinglong's blood to increase its own strength.
Jiang Yuebai and Lu Nanzhi were very afraid of the bone dragon's power and they did not dare to delay for even a second. The moment the bone dragon's long tail left the restriction below, Jiang Yuebai activated the Five Ghosts Transfer Technique that he had already accumulated and rushed to the top of the restriction with Lu Nanzhi.
Jiang Yuebai didn't even bother to check what the restriction was. He immediately concentrated his spiritual power to activate the great spatial restriction.
She had refined a trace of Yinglong's essence and blood. It was precisely because of the existence of this trace of essence and blood that she could activate the Yinglong clan's great spatial restriction. At this moment, her spiritual power moved, and a breath of Yinglong's essence and blood suddenly spread.
The cultivators might not be able to detect it, but the dragon clan is extremely sensitive to it. This breath makes the bone dragon even crazier than the dragon's blood.
Oh!
The bone dragon turned around and attacked. Lu Nanzhi stepped behind Jiang Yuebai and held his sword across to block it.
The dragon might of the late Nascent Soul stage came towards him with waves of black fire. Lu Nanzhi resisted with all his might without any fear. He slashed at the bone dragon with waves of ice. Layers of ice waves surged and collided fiercely with the black fire waves.
Boom boom boom!
Rocks collapsed, explosions reached the sky, and a bone dragon broke through the center of the explosion and opened its mouth to bite.
"Walk!"
At the critical moment, Jiang Yuebai tore open a crack in space and pulled Lu Nanzhi into it.
Bang!
The bone dragon crashed into the suddenly appeared forbidden light and shadow. The thin layer of forbidden light was like an impenetrable dragon gate. The huge recoil force caused the bone dragon's skull to crack, and its huge body slammed heavily into the mountain wall.
The entire rift valley, along with the cliff above, collapsed with a loud bang, smoke and dust filled the sky, causing a huge noise.
The demon cultivators and ghost cultivators near the Black Demon Mountain noticed the commotion and came over to check it out. They found that the rift had been deeply buried and they didn't know what was underneath. They wandered around hesitantly and were unwilling to leave.
Oh!
The angry bone dragon broke through the rubble and soared into the sky. When it saw the monks around it, it became even angrier and spewed out raging dragon flames, burning the sky and earth and killing people in all directions.
The innocent monks who suffered had no choice but to flee in all directions, cursing their bad luck inwardly!
