Trials of the Abyss

Chapter 29: Anaconda horn

Under the pool.

Looking up at the heroic figure of the young man riding the snake, Ning Yao was in a trance and was stunned for a moment.

When her body began to fall, she suddenly woke up and hurriedly continued to swim upwards in an extremely ugly posture.

Unlike Pang Jian, who is very familiar with water and can swim like a fish in water, the swimming posture of this young lady from the Ning family is like a dog paddling, and her movements are stiff and not smooth at all.

Seeing the young man clamping the python's neck with his legs, his body straight as a sword, and stabbing Jinyang repeatedly with the spear in his hand, Ning Yao secretly regretted that she did not learn to swim well.

The young man, who was proficient in water, cleverly used the impact force of the python, and every time he stabbed Jinyang with his spear, it was powerful and powerful.

Jinyang, who even Hongtai had to serve carefully, had blood all over his body as he fled in panic.

How could a young hunter be so brave as to kill the high-ranking dark ghosts of the fourth realm

Isn't he afraid of the Dark Ghost's subsequent crazy revenge and inhumane torture after being captured

Ning Yao thought back to the past and suddenly realized that ever since they entered the Silence Mountains, in the process of getting along with Pang Jian, this seemingly ordinary boy of the same age seemed to have taken the initiative everywhere.

Her noble status as Miss Ning's did not play any role.

Pang Jian always looked at her with neither arrogance nor humility, and did not regard her as some great figure.

This was completely different from what she had encountered in Linshan Town, those mundane people in the town.

"You must have hidden a lot from me!"

She became more and more certain that Pang Jian's background was not simple.

Perhaps, Pang Jian was really a survivor of the Blood Moon, Galaxy Alliance, or Yinling Temple in the upper realm. After stepping out of the Silence Mountains, he killed the real Pang brothers and sisters and waited for the arrival of a search team like her.

Ning Yao couldn't help but ponder: "What exactly is he trying to do?"

The top of the phoenix bone protrudes above the water.

The graceful figure shrouded in the blood mist was nervous and excited at this moment, with a pair of captivating and strange eyes staring straight at the ground.

Under the phoenix bone, a cluster of liquid amber light representing phoenix marrow was slowly rising towards her position.

Luo Hongyan, who had no real flesh and blood, habitually took a deep breath, but forgot that she didn't need to breathe at all.

“When the Phoenix Marrow was fully formed, it knew that there was an Ouyang Duanhai whose heart was corroded. In order to avoid being refined by Ouyang Duanhai, it had no choice but to float upwards.”

"The kid named Jinyang has a decent talent for cultivation, but he didn't become the target of its evil?"

Luo Hongyan frowned and thought.

She knew some of the properties of Phoenix marrow.

Legend has it that when the Phoenix suffers severe damage, the feather bones that have separated from the body will spontaneously search for something with strong blood and energy. After killing it, they will gather the vast blood, flesh and energy to condense new Phoenix marrow.

If the phoenix bone is too far away from the true body of the celestial phoenix, after the phoenix marrow is formed, it will choose a nearby living being to host, and complete the initial awakening of self-consciousness by devouring the other's soul and flesh.

In every phoenix bone, where phoenix marrow has condensed and formed, the phoenix marrow has independent intelligence.

In the same area, every drop of phoenix marrow will select a living being to reside in, and each is an independent individual.

The phoenix marrows will instinctively fight and devour each other, and after fusion they will form the strongest "Heavenly Phoenix Divine Guard".

The responsibility and obligation of the "Tianfeng Divine Guards" is to protect Tianfeng, and they will eventually be summoned back to Tianfeng's side.

The "Phoenix Divine Guards" scattered across the country and formed through fighting with each other will turn into a new feather bone full of divine power after returning to the Phoenix, and become a part of the Phoenix's bone wing again.

If the phoenix bone that falls into the Silence Mountains successfully kills a ferocious creature like the "Dark Anaconda" at the moment of falling to the ground, a drop of phoenix marrow will be produced inside.

For every fallen phoenix bone, as long as phoenix marrow is formed in it, the phoenix marrow will choose to reside in someone nearby like Ouyang Duanhai.

Every host of Phoenix marrow will instinctively seek out other Phoenix bones and marrows, either to refine the marrow therein, or to devour those whose hearts have been corroded like themselves.

This is their mission.

Because the phoenix marrow has an independent self-intelligence the moment it is formed, it will avoid being refined by its own kind and will want to quickly find a suitable living being to host it.

"I don't have a flesh and blood body. Since I'm just a spirit, I will never be its choice."

Luo Hongyan was thinking about it, and seeing the phoenix marrow in the phoenix bone getting closer and closer, her heart was in constant torment.

In soul form, she has the ability to enter the phoenix bone beneath her feet and sink quickly. She is confident that she can intercept that cluster of phoenix marrow and take it for herself, turning it into vital nutrients for her to build her body.

However, the moment she merged with the Phoenix marrow, she would inevitably come into conflict with the spiritual intelligence born within the Phoenix marrow.

The period before her Phoenix marrow self-intelligence was dissolved would be her weakest moment, and as long as she dropped from above to the Phoenix bone, her soul form would be exposed and would definitely be seen by those at the bottom of the pool.

She always felt that the being who had captured the "Dark Anaconda" from the fifth realm and kept it in the Black Water Pond was waiting for someone as greedy for Phoenix Marrow as her to show up.

The desire in her heart was about to overflow, but she still held back and dared not move.

She was prepared to wait a little longer.

In the air around her, "spiritual evil spirits" like Romon, refined by Tongmai realm monks, were suspended in the air, waiting for her orders.

"puff!"

In the water, Pang Jian tightly grasped the dragon-patterned spear, and with the help of the impact force of the "Dark Anaconda" swimming in the water and his own surging divine power, he pierced several bloody holes in Jinyang's body.

History always repeats itself surprisingly well.

Before he fell into the water, Jinyang was controlling seven "cicada wing swords" and chasing him and stabbing him repeatedly.

Now, he was the one holding the dragon-patterned spear tightly, constantly making bloody holes in Jinyang's body.

It wasn't that he wanted to torture Jinyang slowly, he didn't have the time to do that. However, Jinyang, who had reached the Tongmai realm, was often able to move in the water in an instant when his spear pierced into his back.

His spear strike, which should have been fatal, could only leave a bloody hole in a non-fatal part of Jinyang.

Pang Jian quickly realized the reality. Jinyang was not like those little dark ghost cultivators in the Qi Refining Realm, and he would not be killed by a single spear.

Fortunately, Jinyang was not faster than the "Dark Anaconda", so Pang Jian was able to pass by him every time and then adjust direction to assassinate him again.

Jinyang, who had been swimming upstream along the phoenix bone, had bloody holes on his waist, abdomen, legs and shoulders, but he still did not stray too far from the phoenix bone.

The "Dark Anaconda" controlled by Pang Jian's mind did not get too close to Jinyang who was clinging to the phoenix bone, as if it was worried that the phoenix marrow inside the phoenix bone would fly out.

After a while, Pang Jian and Jin Yang, who were chasing and fleeing, had not yet rushed out of the pool.

On the contrary, Ning Yao, who was the worst at swimming and had the ugliest posture, was only thinking about going up to breathe, and actually jumped out of the water first.

She surfaced from the water, shook her wet hair out of front of her, and exhaled deeply.

She suddenly realized something and turned her head to look.

I saw many gray shadows floating around the phoenix bones. Among them was a gray shadow, who was the strong man loyal to Shangguan Qin.

On top of the phoenix bone surrounded by several gray shadows, stood an enchanting figure shrouded in blood mist, mysterious and powerful.

"The witch in the pile of rocks!"

Ning Yao screamed, and suddenly realized that the situation on the water surface was not good either, and it would be safer underwater.

“Perhaps, she is also an option.”

"She has flesh and blood. I just broke the seal but my power was not enough to possess her. Now..."

"call out!"

A beam of blood-red lightning suddenly shot out.

Ning Yao was hesitant, and saw a beam of blood-red lightning flying out from the blood mist. When she wanted to retreat back into the water, it was too late.

A flash of lightning flashed between her eyebrows.

Immediately, a beautiful figure who brought disaster to the country and the people appeared in her mind, and said with a sweet and intoxicating voice: "Sorry, I will borrow your body for a while, please bear with it for a few days."

As soon as she heard this, Ning Yao found that she had been imprisoned in her own body, but she could still vaguely see the scene in front of her through her own eyes.

But her mind could no longer control her body, and she couldn't even speak.

"Don't worry, you won't die for now."

Luo Hongyan whispered softly, and suddenly jumped out of the water as Ning Yao, landing lightly on the phoenix bone.

After standing on the ground with Ning Yao's body, Luo Hongyan thought that now that she had a body of flesh and blood, that drop of phoenix marrow with independent intelligence would, if she couldn't find a better choice, would take the initiative to come in when she was left with no other options.

At that time, she would be able to give Feng Sui a big "surprise".

"spread."

She waved her fair arms gracefully, and a group of "spiritual demons" like Romon floated around the black water pool.

She squatted down, and looked down at the pool of water with Ning Yao's body and eyes.

Jinyang kept swimming upstream, and Pang Jian, who was riding a snake, was chasing her closely. The two were very close to the water surface at this moment, so close that she could see them clearly.

When she looked at it, she found that the dark ghost youth named Jinyang was stabbed by Pang Jian again.

Jinyang, who had lost too much blood, suddenly felt dizzy for a moment, and his limbs underwater became extremely loose.

"Dead."

She shook her head slightly.

As if he had been sentenced to death by her, the eyes of the young man riding the snake suddenly lit up, and he aimed the spear in his hand at Jinyang's vital points, stabbing him several times in the back of his neck and back of his heart.

After confirming that Jinyang was dead, the young man suddenly got out of the snake, touched Jinyang's body, and pulled out a green lotus leaf from his chest.

A look of satisfaction appeared in the boy's eyes, and he held the large lotus leaf against his heart with great care.

At this time, the young man went towards the "Black and White King Python" which seemed afraid to get too close to the Phoenix Bone and only dared to wait far away.

Luo Hongyan looked down at the underwater from the phoenix bone with Ning Yao's eyes. She suddenly felt a strong sense of panic and couldn't help but look at the "black and white king python" in her mind.

The "Black and White King Python" originally had green pupils, but now they were completely black, and the two pupils seemed to have become two deep pools of water.

Deep in the strange eyes of the "Black and White King Python", she saw small black snakes as thin as hair, swimming quietly.

Luo Hongyan concentrated his mind and used his divine power to bless Ning Yao's pupils, taking a closer look at the pair of obsidian-like snake eyes of the "Black and White King Python".

She saw it clearly in an instant.

Deep in the dark snake pupils like a pool of water, each slender little snake has olive green scales and tiny black spots on its body.

Moreover, there are small pointed horns on the forehead of each little snake.

"When a python grows scales, it becomes an anaconda. When an anaconda grows horns, it becomes a dragon. When a dragon grows claws, it becomes a dragon!"

Luo Hongyan's face suddenly changed color.

"Inside the body of the black and white king python is actually the beast soul of the dark giant anaconda! The dark giant anaconda that was stabbed to death by the phoenix bone has faint horns on its head, and is clearly in the stage of transforming into a dragon!"

After seeing the truth, Luo Hongyan suddenly panicked.

She finally understood why the "Black and White King Python" was so powerful and could absorb all the "Spiritual Evil" she refined.

She also suddenly realized that the reason why there were no sharp corners on the huge snake bones of the "Dark Anaconda" was because when the Phoenix Bone fell from the sky, it was heading towards the sharp corners of the "Dark Anaconda" that were just beginning to show.

The Phoenix Bone first broke the sharp horns of the "Dark Anaconda", then pierced its head and nailed it to the bottom of the pool!
