The Nine-Headed Dragon King and Gao Xuan stared at each other from a distance, and their eye contact caused a violent shock in their vital energy.
It caused avalanches in the mountains and huge waves.
This was a direct collision between two powerful earthly immortals, and the huge momentum it caused continued to spread outward, covering the entire Southern Wilderness.
The many earth immortal-level demon kings in the Southern Wilderness all sensed this violent shock of vital energy.
Conflicts between earthly immortal-level demon kings were extremely rare, especially this kind of direct and tough conflict.
Such a huge momentum also attracted the attention of many demon kings. However, the distance was too far, and the demon kings were not sure who was doing it.
Although the 72 Demon Kings of the Southern Wilderness are famous to each other, they seldom communicate with each other.
The earthly immortals must live their lives in their own homes, and no one wants to go out and run around.
Not all of the seventy-two demon kings are just idling around. Among them there are also powerful ones with great talents and strategies who are extremely concerned about the situation in the Southern Wilderness.
The Wuji Demon King, Xiong Wuji, knows all the other Demon Kings in the Southern Wilderness very well.
Xiong Wuji had the ambition to unify the vast southern wilderness, and he had never given up on this effort for millions of years.
The earthly immortals each occupied a region and proclaimed themselves emperors, and no one was willing to be controlled by others.
Xiong Wuji also knew this. If he wanted to unify the many Demon Kings in the Southern Wilderness, no strategy or plan would be of any use. To deal with these Earth Immortal Demon Kings, the only way was to use force to subdue them.
Xiong Wuji practiced the infinite divine power hard. He used solid wood that was hundreds of thousands of years old, killed the six demon kings around him silently, swallowed up a huge territory, and practiced the infinite divine power to the highest level.
But at this point, he suddenly discovered a problem, that is, his infinite divine power had reached its peak, and continuing to annex the territories of earthly immortals would not be able to improve his cultivation.
This problem also greatly frustrated Xiong Wuji's enterprising spirit. Since expanding territory could not enhance his own strength, the significance of expanding territory was very small.
The way to solve this problem is to condense the earth weapon, or condense the second earth immortal law.
The infinite divine power requires the utmost strength and rigidity, and its pure and powerful force cannot be accommodated by other earthly immortal laws.
Condensing the earth weapon is also a bit troublesome. Xiong Wuji is good at fighting, but not so good at refining weapons.
Most of the demon kings have this problem. They rely on their innate magical powers to prove their way. It is difficult for them to master the power other than their innate magical powers.
This is also the fundamental reason why other cultivators look down on monsters.
Relying entirely on talent to make a living, after all, he is not much stronger than a beast.
Gao Xuan has a unique advantage in this regard. His innate Hunyuan Dao body condenses the core of the magic talisman with Yin Yang and the Five Elements, and he is proficient in many changes of Yin Yang and the Five Elements.
There is a greedy furnace outside that can smelt all kinds of tools. There is also a nine-turn deduction simulation of the formless method to reduce the failure rate to the lowest level.
The Nine-Turn Divine Cicada's extraordinary spirituality can ensure that he will not go the wrong way.
It is precisely because of this that Gao Xuan was able to refine many divine weapons step by step. This advantage is unmatched by other demon kings.
If it were any other demon king, it would be difficult to quickly transform the territories of other earthly immortals into his own power.
Therefore, most demon kings prefer to live their lives behind closed doors.
This is the essential difference between the Demon Kings and Gao Xuan. Different needs lead to different behavior patterns.
Gao Xuan has a path to success, and of course he is willing to forge ahead courageously.
The Demon King Xiong Wuji was stuck in a bottleneck. Although he was full of ambitions, he couldn't find his own way.
Xiong Wuji stayed at home, thinking hard about how to break through, and his grand plan to unify the vast southern wilderness came to an end.
In the Southern Wilderness, because the demon kings each occupy one area, the demons have no business acumen and lack the need to communicate with each other, and there is no news between them.
Xiong Wuji had no idea that Shi Wanqiu was killed by Gao Xuan. After all, this incident only happened a few thousand years ago. For the Demon King, this period of time was too short.
It was not until Gao Xuan and the Nine-headed Dragon King confronted each other in the air and the power of the two strong men continued to spread outward that it attracted Xiong Wuji's attention.
Xiong Wuji recognized the aura of the Nine-headed Dragon King and was deeply impressed by him.
Of the 72 demon kings in the Southern Wilds, the Nine-Headed Dragon King is definitely in the top ten in terms of combat power. Moreover, he is decisive and warlike, and can be called a hero.
Xiong Wuji admired the Nine-headed Dragon King very much and once personally tried to recruit him to join him in a big plan. Unfortunately, he was rejected by the Nine-headed Dragon King.
Xiong Wuji felt that the Nine-headed Dragon King lacked ambition, which was a pity.
I didn't expect that there was someone who dared to fight the Nine-Headed Dragon King head-on, and was not inferior to him in momentum.
This aura is vast, pure and clear, and its breath is long and deep, even more powerful and fierce than the Nine-headed Dragon King.
Who is this
Xiong Wuji visited many demon kings in the Southern Wilderness. Even though he had never taken action, he still remembered the laws and powers of many demon kings.
In his memory, there is no such person in the Southern Wilderness
Moreover, there are only a handful of Demon Kings who can suppress the Nine-headed Dragon King.
"Could it be a Earth Immortal from Zhongzhou?"
Xiong Wuji was a little confused. The other party's aura was very much like that of a human cultivator, which was very different from the aura of the Demon King.
The Demon King dominates the Eight Wildernesses, and only in Zhongzhou can one find such a top-level human immortal.
The Yuantian Realm is vast and endless, with the four sides of the east, south, west and north being called the Eight Wastelands. The most central area is collectively called Zhongzhou.
The Eight Wildernesses is the territory of demons and monsters, while Zhongzhou is the territory of humans and celestial beings.
If we talk about strength, of course Zhongzhou has many talented people and many powerful earth immortals.
The most famous Yuantian Realm's number one swordsman, Yuan Qinglian, is the leader of the Zhongzhou Qinglian Sword Sect.
In addition to Yuan Qinglian, Diyuan Daojun, Ten Suffering Bodhisattvas, and Bliss Demon Emperor are all top powerhouses in this world.
Especially the Taoist Lord Di Yuan, who is secretly the best in this world.
Although there are many Demon Kings in the Eight Desolations, they are far less than the many powerful ones in Zhongzhou.
Although the strongest Ghost Emperor, Heavenly Corpse, and Xiankong Patriarch are recognized as first-rate earth immortals, they have a clear gap with Yuan Qinglian and Diyuan Daojun.
Xiong Wuji thought to himself that he was at least first-rate, and was not worse than the Ghost Emperor and the Heavenly Corpse.
However, there are so many first-rate earthly immortals in Zhongzhou that they cannot be counted on two hands.
Precisely because there are so many powerful people in Zhongzhou, the demon kings of the Eight Wastelands all stay in the Eight Wastelands and no one dares to enter Zhongzhou without permission.
The cultivators in Zhongzhou also look down on the Eight Wildernesses, thinking that it is a barren place and few cultivators would enter it.
It was Yuan Qinglian who went deep into the Western Wilderness and killed several demon kings in succession. His fame spread far and wide, and his power shook the whole world. Only then did the demon kings realize that there were such powerful people in such a big world!
From then on, the Demon Kings of the Eight Desolations had a little more respect for the strong men in Zhongzhou.
The reason why Xiong Wuji had the ambition to unify the vast southern wilderness was that he was inspired by the Yuan Qinglian Sword sweeping across the wilderness.
I didn't expect to see human cultivators again in the southern wilderness after millions of years.
Judging from this aura, the other party is also a first-class earthly immortal, not much worse than him.
Xiong Wuji immediately became curious and wanted to go over to see what was going on.
It's just that Wuji Palace is too far away from Jiulong Sea. There is no connection array between the two places. He is not good at traveling through the void.
It would take him at least fifteen days to reach Jiulong Sea.
Fifteen days later, the battle was long over.
Xiong Wuji changed his mind and realized that if he wanted to watch the battle, he didn’t have to go to Jiulong Sea, he could just find the Five Elements Patriarch.
The Five Elements Patriarch is also the top-notch demon king in the Southern Wilderness. In Xiong Wuji's opinion, he is only slightly inferior to him.
In their early years, they discussed Taoism together, and the Five Elements Patriarch admired him very much, so they became good friends.
Xiong Wuji left a talisman on the Five Elements Mountain. With this talisman, he can directly travel through the void and enter the Five Elements Mountain.
Of course, this requires the cooperation of the Five Elements Patriarch.
Xiong Wuji activated the Tongtian Talisman to determine the distance coordinates, and the next moment he had traveled through the void and arrived at the Five Elements Mountain.
Wuxing Mountain is only about 200 feet high, with gentle slopes and rolling hills all around. Although Wuxing Mountain is not high, the view from the top of the mountain is particularly wide.
Looking ahead, you can see the whole world.
There was only a simple wooden house on the top of the mountain, and the Five Elements Patriarch was sitting cross-legged on the bluestone in front of the house.
He was short in stature and wore a long robe in five colors: blue, white, red, yellow, and black. The complex colors made his stature even shorter.
The Five Elements Ancestor sensed the surging vitality, and he slowly opened his eyes. His pupils were also divided into five colors, rotating like a kaleidoscope, and the five-colored light was flowing, which seemed a bit weird and unpredictable.
Xiong Wuji laughed at the Five Elements Patriarch: "Five Elements, you are always good."
The Five Elements Patriarch came down from the bluestone. He clasped his fists and bowed to Xiong Wuji: "Daoyou Wuji, I haven't seen you for a long time. I am glad to see your great progress in cultivation."
To be honest, the two have not seen each other for more than 100,000 years. For the Demon King, this is also a very long time.
The Five Elements Ancestor was also quite surprised to see Xiong Wuji. At his stage, he had nothing to pursue and nothing to enjoy.
During these hundreds of thousands of years, he embarked on the path of asceticism and abandoned all physical desires.
It is a great joy for him when an old friend comes to visit him.
Xiong Wuji waved his hand and said, "We are old friends, so stop flattering each other. We haven't made any progress in these hundreds of thousands of years. It's a bit embarrassing to talk about it."
Xiong Wuji was a straightforward person, he said directly: "Wu Xing, I came here to ask you for help."
The Five Elements Patriarch smiled and said, "If you still need my help, just tell me if you have anything to ask."
He and Xiong Wuji have a close relationship, and since Xiong Wuji has asked, he will do his best to help.
"Just now, when the Nine-Headed Dragon King was fighting with someone, his aura leaked out. Did you feel anything?" Xiong Wuji asked.
"I sensed two waves of surging vital energy, but I didn't pay much attention to it."
The Five Elements Patriarch felt that the stirring of vital energy was too far away from him, so he had no interest in paying attention to it.
He has practiced hard for hundreds of thousands of years and can be said to have no desires or requests. He does not care about the changes in the outside world.
Xiong Wuji said: "The opponent of the Nine-headed Dragon King seems to be a human cultivator. I don't know where he came from. I think this person is quite powerful. I would like to trouble you to use the Five Elements Divine Light to observe the Nine Dragon Sea..."
The Five Elements Divine Light in the hands of the Five Elements Patriarch can be said to be the top artifact in the Eight Desolations.
Through the Five Elements Divine Light, the Five Elements Patriarch can connect with the Earthly Evil Energy and connect the eight directions with his spiritual consciousness.
In Xiong Wuji's opinion, the Five Elements Disha Divine Light has endless potential. Unfortunately, the Five Elements Patriarch somehow believed the Buddhist monk's deception and embarked on the path of purifying the soul.
My only thought is to gain sudden enlightenment and return to my original nature.
Xiong Wuji thought this was ridiculous. Even if the Buddha Daluo enlightened him, he might not be able to return to his original state. Although the Five Elements Patriarch had first-rate talent, he was still far from the level of enlightenment.
If you have that much time, you might as well kill a few more demon kings and grab more territory. With enough spiritual energy to nourish, the Five Elements Earthly Evil Light will definitely be able to go further. This is much more reliable than any hard training.
It's just that everyone has their own aspirations. At the level of the Demon King, he will not listen to other people's advice.
Although Xiong Wuji did not agree with the Five Elements Patriarch, he did not say much.
"Fellow Daoist, you really like to watch the fun. This is easy."
The Five Elements Patriarch laughed when he heard it, and Xiong Wuji ran over from far away just to watch the fun.
He stretched out his hand and pointed, and five-colored divine light shone out from his fingertips.
With the support of the endless spiritual energy of the Five Elements Mountain, the five-colored divine light was far connected to the evil energy of the Nine Dragon Sea.
With this wisp of Earthly Evil Energy connected, the Five Elements Earthly Evil Divine Light transformed into a huge water mirror, and the surging waves of the Nine Dragon Sea appeared on the water mirror.
The Five Elements Patriarch quickly locked onto the position of the Nine-headed Dragon King by constantly adjusting the Five Elements' Divine Light.
A huge golden ship appeared on the huge water mirror, and the Nine-headed Dragon King appeared standing proudly on the top deck.
The Nine-Headed Dragon King also sensed the abnormal condensation of vital energy in the sky. He frowned and looked deeply, faintly sensing that it was the Five Elements' evil energy circulating, and guessed that it was the work of the Five Elements' ancestor.
The Five Elements Patriarch was obsessed with cultivation, so he would not risk offending him to spy on him. I think it must be Xiong Wuji who was behind this.
If it were with other demon kings, the Nine-headed Dragon King would not allow them to watch the battle.
Xiong Wuji is quite heroic, and although his methods are ruthless, he will not take advantage of others when they are in danger.
Furthermore, he was concentrating on fighting Gao Xuan at the moment and had no energy to care about the Five Elements Ancestor.
If Xiong Wuji likes to watch it, then let him watch it. Let Xiong Wuji see what he can do!
The Nine-Headed Dragon King no longer paid attention to the peeping from above. He made a seal with his hands, and the huge golden ship under his feet continued to shrink with him as the center.
In the blink of an eye, the huge golden ship turned into a thick golden armor covering the Nine-headed Dragon King.
"Xirang Thick Earth Armor, good stuff."
The Five Elements Patriarch looked at the heavy golden armor on the Nine-Headed Dragon King and sighed, "It is said that there is real soil on the Nine-Headed Dragon King's body. It turns out to be true!"
"His mother gave it to him, hahahaha..."
Speaking of the Nine-headed Dragon King's mother, Xiong Wuji couldn't help but laugh.
The Nine-Headed Dragon King has dragon blood, but his mother is obviously not a dragon. Everyone speculates that she is most likely an ancient alien species, Xiangliu.
This legendary nine-headed snake was extremely poisonous. Legend has it that it was also subdued by the Xirang True Soil.
Looking at the Nine-Headed Dragon King now, it is true.
Xirang True Soil can be endlessly generated, and is said to be the source of the earth. The Xirang Thick Soil Armor in the Nine-Headed Dragon King's hand, even if it is just a little bit, can be endlessly generated as armor and will never disintegrate.
Unless, unless he could break through the thick earth armor of Xirang with one move and kill the Nine-headed Dragon King.
If the problem cannot be solved in one move, and the thick earth armor of Xirang is indestructible, there will be no way to kill the Nine-headed Dragon King.
Xiong Wuji restrained his smile when he thought of this. If the Nine-headed Dragon King's Xirang Thick Earth Armor was given to him, he would be qualified to compete with Yuan Qinglian.
What a shame, what a shame…
Although Xiong Wuji was greedy, he knew it would not be easy to snatch this artifact from the Nine-headed Dragon King.
Moreover, refining this armor also requires the power of thick earth.
The Nine-Headed Dragon King was a descendant of Xiangliu, and was born with the ability to harness the power of water and earth. This was something he could not compare to.
However, since the Nine-Headed Dragon King has the thick soil armor and is in the Nine Dragon Sea, he is almost invincible due to his natural ability to control both water and soil.
Even with his boundless divine power, it would be difficult to kill the Nine-headed Dragon King in the Nine Dragon Sea.
Although the aura of the human cultivator on the opposite side was strong, it was slightly weaker than his. There was almost no chance of him winning.
Xiong Wuji's Five Elements Patriarch said: "With the Xiran Thick Earth Armor, it will be difficult for the Nine-headed Dragon King to lose."
The Five Elements Patriarch nodded solemnly. He actually hoped that the Nine-Headed Dragon King would lose, because the thick soil of Xirang and the Five Elements Disha Divine Light were a good match.
If you can get the thick soil of Xirang, the power of the Five Elements Divine Light will immediately double.
Although Xiong Wuji was his best friend, he could not share secrets that involved the foundation of his power. Moreover, with Xiong Wuji around, this treasure would never fall into his hands.
The Five Elements Patriarch could only sigh deeply in his heart.
A figure flashed on the water mirror, and Gao Xuan was already in front of the Nine-headed Dragon King. The two were only a few feet apart.
Gao Xuan on the water mirror was wearing a dark yellow Taoist robe, a moon-white gauze dress that was as white as water, light and air, and a long white jade Taoist hairpin on his head. He stood against the wind, and his demeanor was truly extraordinary.
Xiong Wuji looked Gao Xuan up and down, and he couldn't help but sigh in admiration: "He is indeed a figure from Zhongzhou, so handsome and elegant."
The Five Elements Patriarch was about to nod in agreement, but when his eyes glanced at the moon-white gauze dress on Gao Xuan, he was stunned.
"Like light, like air, like water, the five elements flow and change endlessly. This is, this is... the Five Elements Heavenly Light..."
Although the Five Elements Patriarch is a shrewd man, he couldn't help but lose his composure at this moment.
The Five Elements Divine Light has been in his hands for millions of years. He used this treasure to prove his truth and called himself the Ancestor of the Five Elements.
Through the induction of the treasure, the Five Elements Ancestor knew that the Five Elements Earthly Evil Light in his hand was incomplete. In his early years, he also spent a lot of effort to search for it, trying to complete the Five Elements Earthly Evil Light, but he was busy for many years but found nothing.
He also gave up this lucky hope and turned to concentrate on hard training. At least, this was a training path he could grasp.
I didn't expect to see this treasure on a young Taoist priest.
The Five Elements Patriarch's hundreds of thousands of years of hard training were shattered in an instant. He threw all those things about having no desires, clarity of mind, and tranquility out of his mind.
At this moment he had only one thought, to grab the Five Elements Heavenly Net Divine Light at any cost!
Xiong Wuji also noticed the loss of composure of the Five Elements Ancestor. This old man, who had practiced hard for hundreds of thousands of years, originally had an attitude of letting everything go, but now his face was twisted and hideous, with five-colored divine light flickering in his eyes, as if he wanted to eat someone.
The Five Elements Patriarch's true form is a five-colored toad, and before he became a Taoist, he ate all kinds of monsters and creatures every day. This is not surprising.
What strange thing made him lose his composure like this
Xiong Wuji asked, "Why, fellow Daoist, do you know this person?"
The Five Elements Patriarch hesitated for a moment. This was a serious matter, and he shouldn't have told Xiong Wuji about it. However, with Xiong Wuji around, it was not his turn to take advantage.
The only way to solve this problem is to discuss it with Xiong Wuji.
The Five Elements Patriarch thought of this and said solemnly, "Daoist Wuji, I want to discuss something with you."
Xiong Wuji was a little surprised: "Just tell me about our friendship, fellow Taoist."
"The moon-white gauze on this Taoist should be the Five Elements Heavenly Light. This treasure and the Five Elements Earthly Light in my hand are a perfect match..."
"I see."
Xiong Wuji understood. No wonder the Five Elements Patriarch lost his composure. It turned out that it was related to the foundation of his power.
Earthly immortals also have a lifespan limit. Generally speaking, it ends at fifty epochs.
Only those extremely powerful earth immortals can break through this limit.
Therefore, even an unmotivated earthly immortal like the Five Elements Patriarch would try every possible way to prolong his life. The Five Elements Patriarch took the path of asceticism, not because he was tired of living, but because he wanted to live longer.
However, is the Five Elements Patriarch stupid
No matter how good their relationship is, he cannot allow the Five Elements Patriarch to be stronger than him.
The combined power of the Five Elements Heavenly Light and the Five Elements Earthly Light would at least double! He couldn't tolerate such a thing.
Xiong Wuji certainly wouldn't directly object, as that would offend his friend. He also disdained to tell lies, so he remained silent for a while.
This attitude was very clear, that is, he disagreed. Unless the Five Elements Ancestor had a better reason.
The Five Elements Patriarch also understood Xiong Wuji's meaning, so he must have been confident when he dared to say it.
"Fellow Daoist, I will not take the Five Elements Heavenly Light for nothing. I am willing to help you get the Xirang Thick Earth Armor. I can also use the Five Elements Earthly Light to help you refine the Xirang Thick Earth Armor..."
After listening to what the Five Elements Patriarch said, Xiong Wuji was also quite moved.
If he could really refine the Xirang Thick Earth Armor, he would be able to master another powerful earth tool and continue to expand his territory and absorb spiritual energy.
If you really practice the Xirang Thick Earth Armor to the extreme, it will definitely be the top-level earth weapon in this world. His divine power is boundless, and with the blessing of the Xirang Thick Earth Armor, his attack ability is invincible and his defense ability is indestructible.
At that point, the Ghost Emperor, Heavenly Corpse and the like would not matter. It would not be difficult to dominate the world.
The key is that without the help of the Five Elements Ancestor, he has no way to refine the Xirang Thick Earth Armor.
It is worth it to exchange it for the Five Elements Heavenly Light. Even if the Five Elements Ancestor gets the Five Elements Heavenly Light, he can't be stronger than him.
Xiong Wuji weighed the pros and cons and felt that this deal was a good one. He nodded vigorously: "Okay, it's a deal."
The Five Elements Patriarch was delighted: "Daoyou is really straightforward. It's a deal."
He asked again: "Do you have any plans, fellow Taoist?"
Xiong Wuji laughed: "Do we need to plan this? Wait until the two of them decide the winner, then we'll kill them. Kill Gao Xuan first, then Jiutou."
The Five Elements Patriarch nodded. Although the plan was simple, it was easier to implement.
There aren't that many tricks in the fight between earthly immortals.
Xiong Wuji said: "To jump through the void, I also need your Five Elements Divine Light."
The Five Elements Patriarch said confidently: "I used the Disha Divine Light to condense the Disha Qi on the Nine Dragon Sea and set up a stable mark. It is enough for us to travel through it instantly..."
