A Mortal's Start in the Spirit Beast Mountain

Chapter 142 The Advancement of the Fat Sun Bird

Mo Yu Jing Feng says: Read this book!

Seeing Luo Ming hovering above its head, the Earth Fire Poison Toad was enraged. Its demonic aura erupted, and it opened its mouth wide, spitting out a stream of emerald green flame.

As soon as the fire appeared, Luo Ming felt a stinging pain in his divine sense, clearly indicating that the fire contained some kind of potent poison that could even corrode his divine sense.

"He actually spat out his own primordial spirit fire; is he going to fight to the death?"

Upon seeing this, Luo Ming's eyes narrowed, and his hand seals changed. The twelve Xuan Yuan Pearls spun in the air and were neatly arranged in a plane. Each Xuan Yuan Pearl was connected by its energy, as if they were a whole, pressing down downwards.

"town!"

With a soft shout, the twelve Xuan Yuan Pearls emitted a bright light, transforming into twenty-four illusory figures that appeared out of thin air around the Fire Toad. Then, spiritual light flowed, and streams of dark blue water emerged from the Xuan Yuan Pearls, connecting with the surrounding illusory figures, forming a cage that firmly enveloped the Fire Toad!

It's a low-spec version of the Xuan Yuan Formation.

With his current spiritual strength, he can only create two phantom images, which is already his limit. Moreover, this formation consumes mana very quickly. With his current strength, even if he were to fully activate this Xuan Yuan Trapping Spirit Formation, he could only last for half an hour at most.

After all, it involves using all twelve magic treasures at once, plus the phantom images of magic treasures created by magical power. This kind of consumption is not something that ordinary cultivators can withstand.

The moment the formation was formed, the gravity of the Xuan Water permeated the air.

The poisonous fire spewed by the toad crashed against the wall of the Xuan Shui Formation, making a loud hissing sound. Although the opponent's poisonous fire was strong, Luo Ming's Xuan Yuan Pearl was a water-attribute magic weapon, which was just right to counter the opponent. The poisonous fire wanted to erode Luo Ming's divine consciousness inside the Xuan Yuan Pearl, but it was blocked by the invisible gravity emanating from the pearl.

Luo Ming changed his hand seals again, and the twenty-four Xuan Yuan Pearls, which were replicated by magic power, suddenly collapsed in a flash of light, turning into hundreds of deep blue spiritual energy chains that tightly bound the opponent's body.

The trapped toad felt as if it were sinking into an endless deep sea, its body bound by chains of mysterious water, unable to move an inch for a time.

A hint of fear flashed in the eyes of the Earth Fire Poison Toad, and the protrusions on its body suddenly turned crimson, spewing out streams of emerald green liquid. As soon as these liquids came into contact with the chains formed by the Xuan Water, crackling sounds immediately echoed in the air.

"These venoms would probably be very appealing to those who practice poison techniques."

Luo Ming watched as the Xuan Shui chains were slowly corroded by the emerald green liquid. With a soft hum, the Xuan Shui chains flashed with spiritual light and were restored to their original state.

Although those liquids were highly corrosive, as long as his magical power was sufficient, he couldn't do anything to these Xuan Shui chains.

Maintaining this Xuan Shui Grand Array to trap such a ferocious and geographically advantageous beast consumed an extremely large amount of magical power. However, his body remained as steady as a mountain, his hand seals were firm, and his divine sense was fully activated to drive the Xuan Yuan Pearl, continuously reinforcing the power of the array.

The Earth Fire Poison Toad was not a demon beast skilled in strength. Its fire magic and poison were completely countered by Luo Ming's Xuan Yuan Array. Even when it used its primordial fire, it could not do anything to the chains. It only consumed some of Luo Ming's magic power.

"The ability of this Xuan Yuan Formation to trap enemies has been tested; now let's see what other powers it has."

Seeing that the experiment was almost successful, Luo Ming changed his hand seals, and the Xuan Yuan Pearls around the Earth Fire Poison Toad began to spin rapidly. Then, with a flash of light, it disappeared from its original spot in an instant with a "hum".

When it reappeared, the twelve Xuan Yuan Pearls were already in front of the Earth Fire Poison Toad, smashing them down hard.

Simple and straightforward.

It should be noted that these beads were made with a large amount of Xuan Water, and each one was extremely heavy. If all twelve were thrown at the monster from different directions, it would be absolutely impossible for any monster to resist unless it was a beast with amazing defense like a giant turtle.

"boom!"

Before the Fire Toad could react, the twelve Profound Origin Pearls transformed into streaks of light and struck it. Under such immense force, its body exploded into a cloud of blood mist.

"Gooooo!!!"

Just then, a emerald green flame shot out rapidly from the blood mist, containing a miniature poisonous toad. It was clearly the toad's primordial spirit controlling a demon core, trying to escape.

"Trying to run away!"

Upon seeing this, Luo Ming's eyes lit up, and the immense gravity of the Xuan Yuan Formation descended instantly, causing the opponent's flying speed to suddenly slow down several times.

Immediately afterwards, a small, jet-black banner appeared, from which a large hand formed from black mist shot out. With a swift movement in the air, it grabbed the primordial spirit of the poisonous toad in the emerald flames and instantly absorbed it.

"Not bad, the Thousand Demon Banner now contains the spirit of a peak level six demon beast, which will increase its power even further."

Luo Ming chuckled, put the Thousand Demon Banner into his storage bag, and then looked at the crimson demon core with emerald flames in front of him with a look of surprise.

"This fire is similar to the Azure Nether Fire that was refined into the Profound Fire Mirror back then. If it is also refined into it, its power should be greatly enhanced; after the Fat Sun Bird advances, if its Supreme Yang Spiritual Fire is also refined into it..."

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look forward to the power of the Mystic Fire Mirror even more.

With a pat on his waist storage bag, Luo Ming found a jade bottle in his hand. After putting the emerald green flame into it, he placed the demon core into a jade box before turning his gaze to the crimson-black spirit cocoon not far away.

Because of the restrictions of the formation, and because he trapped the fire toad in the Xuan Yuan Formation in time, it did not have any effect on the Zhi Yang Bird.

"Congratulations, young master, on slaying this Fire Toad." The old man with the golden gu bowed respectfully to Luo Ming, his expression even more obsequious than before.

He was extremely shocked to see Luo Ming kill a level six peak ancient alien species in a short time.

The other party's growth rate is too fast. When I first met Luo Ming, he was only a late Foundation Establishment cultivator. In less than thirty years, he has reached such a level. He is comparable to the direct descendants of those Nascent Soul ancestors.

Although he regretted provoking the other party back then, he now resides in the corpse puppet in the form of a primordial spirit, and usually stays in that demon banner, so he is practically a ghost cultivator.

But now she's gradually stopped thinking about it too much, only hoping that Luo Ming's strength will increase as much as possible, preferably to the point of forming a Nascent Soul, or even...

Luo Ming naturally didn't care about the other party's thoughts. Now the other party's life or death was only in his own hands, and he was no threat at all. He just needed to work hard as usual.

Just then, the giant reddish-black cocoon suspended above the magma suddenly collapsed inward!

A deep, powerful throbbing sound, like the heartbeat of a giant beast, emanated from within the cocoon. Each throbbing caused the cave to tremble, flames to surge, and yin energy to surge.

Cracks spread across the cocoon like a spider web, and dazzling crimson-gold light and deep, dark energy burst forth from the cracks at the same time, forcibly harmonizing and absorbing the power of yin and yang.

"Eh-!!!"

A long, resounding cry, piercing through gold and splitting stone, filled with boundless majesty and joy, echoed throughout the cave. The crimson-black cocoon exploded with a deafening roar, and amidst the countless points of light, a figure expanded, revealing an astonishing new form.

At this moment, the Zhiyang Bird's wingspan was seven or eight zhang wide, and its body was majestic, no longer showing any trace of the "petite" nature of its former divine bird. Its feathers were crystal clear, with mysterious patterns of red gold and dark silver interwoven.

Its beak and claws are even sharper, a cluster of crimson flames on its head burns fiercely, and its long tail feathers trail behind, making it look exceptionally noble.

"No... why does she look different again?"

Luo Ming stared in shock at the other's appearance, which was very different from its original form. In fact, its current appearance bore a resemblance to the legendary sacred bird, the Vermilion Bird.
