Chapter 2450 Magnetic Light Beast
"What? How could phoenix blood have fallen here?"
The curtain was lifted, and a handsome young man stepped out, his face full of curiosity.
There are two possibilities for the appearance of phoenix blood here.
One theory is that the phoenix blood, as a treasure, was sealed away by someone and somehow ended up here, causing a dispute.
Based on the description given by this sea-patrolling yaksha, the most likely explanation is that a phoenix was injured, and a drop of fresh phoenix blood dripped down.
Since this drop of phoenix blood can cause such a stir, it must not be from an ordinary phoenix.
How could such a powerful Phoenix Clan member be injured? Could something major have happened during his tour of the North Sea?
"Wait here, I will retrieve the Phoenix Blood!" A flash of light appeared on the handsome young man's body, and he was immediately draped in silver helmet and armor, holding a sixteen-foot dragon spear, ready to set off excitedly.
"Your Highness can't!"
The demon soldiers were terrified.
The two patrolling sea yakshas in front hurriedly returned and stopped the handsome young man, saying in unison, "Your Highness wishes to obtain the Phoenix Blood. Please allow us to lead our troops to accompany Your Highness and eliminate the external enemies!"
What's the point of bringing you all along?
The handsome young man looked displeased. "I'm just feeling bored. I'm going out to stretch my muscles!"
"If anything were to happen to Your Highness, we would be eternally sorry! Last time, Your Highness left us behind to go on an adventure alone, and you almost... Fortunately, the Dragon God protected you, and nothing serious happened."
The three-headed sea patrol yaksha had already learned its lesson, and this time it dared not back down no matter what.
Mentioning the previous incident, the handsome young man became furious and embarrassed, "What bullshit dragon god! It was my superior strength that allowed me to escape danger on my own! No, there was no danger at all, you were all making a mountain out of a molehill!"
He pointed at the patrolling yaksha who had come to report and said resentfully, "Didn't you just say that the highest cultivation level in the Yuan Magnetic Sea was only at the mid-stage of the Void Refinement realm? I don't even feel satisfied with such an opponent, so what's there to be afraid of!"
Seeing his colleagues glaring at him with hostility, the sea patrol yaksha quickly tried to salvage the situation, saying, "Although the Yuan Magnetic Sea doesn't have any experts, that Dead Valley is no safe place and shouldn't be underestimated! Also, once the news gets out, it will surely attract experts from other regions..."
"Hmph! The experts here must be Third Uncle's subordinates. I'll take this opportunity to help Third Uncle see if there are any undeserving people! Get out of here! If you dare to say another word, get back to guard the filthy pool!"
Despite the handsome young man's anger, the three-headed sea patrol yaksha remained unyielding.
"This humble general is loyal to his master. Even if Your Highness punishes me by sending me to guard the filthy pond, I will have no complaints!"
The handsome young man had no choice but to reluctantly nod to one of the sea patrol yakshas, "You! Come with me! But unless I am in danger, you are not to make a move! And you, without my order, you are not to show yourselves!"
The three sea-patrolling yakshas exchanged glances. Since His Highness had taken a step back, they could not press further. So they got up, reorganized their demon soldiers, and headed towards the Valley of Death.
……
Qin Sang and his companions walked amidst the fantastical and magnificent magnetic light. The chaotic magnetic force pulled at their bodies. If they were not strong enough, they would probably be torn to pieces on the spot if they entered this place.
At this moment, the magnetic needle in Qin Sang's hand completely lost its bearings, spinning wildly and without any pattern.
"Fellow Daoist, be careful. All Five Elements treasures here will be restrained by the Yuan Magnetic Force," Xi Bu warned telepathically.
"Five Elements Treasures?"
Qin Sang offered up the Four-Tiered Serpent Seal.
With a series of low growls, the four Teng Snakes broke free of the treasure seal and charged towards the surrounding magnetic light, carrying with them a blizzard. Unexpectedly, the ferocious Teng Snakes visibly twisted the next moment.
They struggled against the magnetic force, and although they were not annihilated, they were displaced. Relying on them to fight the enemy would be tantamount to courting death.
What Xi Bu said was true; it seems that here one must either rely on one's own abilities or use treasures outside the Five Elements.
Is Mount Daiyu considered one of the Five Elements Treasures?
Qin Sang's heart stirred, and a small mountain appeared in her palm.
Mount Daiyu was only the size of a palm, but it was surrounded by ethereal mist and possessed extraordinary beauty, which still attracted the attention of Xi Bu and the Hermit.
They glanced at it but couldn't figure it out, so they looked away and searched for the old salamander and its companions.
The immortal mountain trembled slightly, immortal mist spread, and invisible waves shook off the surrounding magnetic forces.
“It seems to have no impact,” Qin Sang said, holding the immortal mountain in one hand and the magnetic needle in the other. He tried to activate the magnetic needle, but all he sensed was chaos. However, the fact that Death Valley had been able to maintain its current state indicated that there was a pattern within the chaos.
Qin Sang spared no effort in sensing the direction of the flow of magnetic energy, and the magnetic needle in his hand bounced incessantly, with the amplitude increasing.
Finally, Qin Sang gradually figured out some patterns. He turned his gaze to the left front and seemed to have spotted the old salamander.
An intruder will definitely affect the surrounding magnetic force, but it is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish whether it is a normal chaotic phenomenon or the influence of an intruder. Qin Sang only discovered the clue with the help of a magnetic needle.
Moreover, this is not the only use of the magnetic needle; Pan Cong's treasure was indeed of great help.
"They're there!"
Qin Sang pointed to the left front.
Xi Bu and Yin Weng were skeptical, but after following the direction Qin Sang pointed for a while, they gradually made some discoveries and finally fully believed Qin Sang's judgment.
Just then, Qin Sang suddenly sensed something, her gaze sharpening, "Be careful!"
The two demons reacted extremely quickly. Upon hearing Qin Sang's warning, they retreated with him without hesitation.
The moment they retreated, the magnetic light in front of them suddenly condensed towards the center, and the colorful magnetic light transformed into a huge light blade. The surrounding magnetic light was instantly sucked away by the light blade, and at the same time, a powerful suction force was released.
'Shuh! '
The light blade slashed down fiercely.
If they hadn't retreated in time, they might have been pulled in by that suction force, ending up under the blade with no way to escape!
"what?"
With two soft exclamations, the light blade grazed past them and struck empty air.
Behind the light blade, two blurry figures emerged. The opponents clearly did not expect Qin Sang and the others to be able to avoid this ambush. They thought they could easily clean up the mess, but seeing that Qin Sang and the others were unharmed, their figures suddenly froze. The divine power they had prepared could not be used, and they were frozen in place.
"It's you two, you adulterous couple!"
Xi Bu recognized the other party's identity and shouted angrily, "What benefits did that old salamander give you that you would risk your lives for it!"
Qin Sang saw clearly that the other party was a man and a woman, both with human bodies and snake tails, but the snake tails did not have snake scales, so she did not know what kind of demon beast had transformed.
Enraged by Xi Bu's blatant insults, the female cultivator's voice shrill and high-pitched, "You're lucky this time. Let's see if you'll be so fortunate next time. Xi Bu, just wait until I tear your mouth apart!"
As the two demons were about to leave, they heard an unfamiliar voice behind them, "Why are you two in such a hurry to leave?"
The two demons were startled and hurriedly went on guard, only to find that Qin Sang had appeared behind them at some point.
This is all thanks to the magnetic needle.
Having just discovered the trap set by the old salamander, Qin Sang has now become increasingly skilled at using the magnetic needle, having unknowingly blocked the enemy's path by utilizing the power of the magnetic field.
Unfortunately, the compass catfish that gave birth to the magnetic needle was not highly skilled, and its power had an upper limit, so it could only be used in a small area.
"Hahaha……"
Xi Bu and Yin Weng laughed and surrounded them, saying, "It seems there won't be a next time for you two!"
The two demons' expressions shifted constantly. The trap was set by the old salamander himself; all they had to do was activate it. They knew nothing about the Valley of Death.
The enemy outnumbers them and can also utilize the surrounding magnetic energy; it's obvious who is stronger.
Seeing the menacing enemy, the two demons remained calm under pressure. The man said calmly, "You're willing to waste your time on us, so it seems you intend to hand over the Phoenix Blood to the old salamander."
"Even if we don't get the Phoenix Blood, killing you and seizing your caves will make the trip worthwhile!" The Hermit exclaimed, his killing intent palpable.
The two demons' expressions changed slightly. After a moment of silence, the female cultivator said, "Let us go. We will leave this place immediately and will no longer be involved in this matter."
Xi Bu shook his head. "You two make it sound so easy. You've delayed us for so long, and you think you can just get away with a few words? Don't you know what 'paying for one's life' means?"
Neither side wanted to fight, but Qin Sang's side ultimately gained the upper hand. The two demons coldly threw out three treasures, and only then did Xi Bu and Yin Weng step aside.
"This time, we owe a great debt to Fellow Daoist Mingyue," Xi Bu said with a smile, handing one of the mustard seed bags to Qin Sang.
Qin Sang accepted it without hesitation; it contained various spiritual materials that she had extorted.
Wherever he went, he always kept an eye out for spiritual materials to build the Thunder Altar. Although the Heavenly Demon Refining Form technique had come out on top, it might not be able to help him break through to the Integration Stage. If he still had to rely on the Purple Star Sword Scripture in the end, setting up an altar would be imperative.
However, he has not yet found a suitable place to establish Qingyang Branch.
The construction of the Thunder Altar in Qingyangzhi last time almost emptied his coffers, and the scale of the altar to help him break through to the Integration stage will definitely be far greater than that in Qingyangzhi, and the spiritual materials required will be even more enormous.
Qin Sang put away the mustard seed bag and continued to lead the way.
Meanwhile, deep within the Valley of Death, the old salamander and other demons had a precious pearl atop their heads. The pearl floated in mid-air, its light protecting them.
The old salamander in front suddenly stopped, glanced back, and frowned slightly.
"Old salamander, why aren't you moving?"
A burly man, as tall as a black tower, asked in a deep voice from behind.
The old salamander looked away, said it was nothing, and was about to continue walking when suddenly a large hand landed on his shoulder.
"Old salamander, we've been walking for so long, but we haven't even seen a trace of that place you mentioned. Are you playing a trick on us?"
The burly man with the black tower questioned the old salamander with an impatient look, while the other demon cultivators remained silent upon seeing this scene.
The old salamander's gaze swept over the demons, showing no surprise whatsoever. Their previous fawning over him stemmed from the fact that no one knew this place better than him. They seemed to follow him, but if he couldn't meet their demands, they were ready to turn on him and attack.
Faced with the questioning gazes of the demons, the old salamander remained silent.
The burly man in the black tower flew into a rage, his eyes blazing with fury, "You old bastard..."
'Snapped! '
With their fingers tightly clasped, they crushed the old salamander's shoulder, leaving the burly man in the black tower stunned.
At the same time, the surrounding magnetic light suddenly surged, and a magnetic light storm, seemingly from nowhere, swept in.
"and many more!"
"what happened!"
……
The demons were shocked. Looking at the old salamander, a cold smile appeared on its lips. Then, in full view of everyone, its body turned into a ball of magnetic light.
"Oh no! This isn't his real form!"
The demons were thrown into a panic, as they had no idea when the old salamander had left.
The magnetic light and the precious pearl merged, shining brightly. They seemed to attract the surrounding magnetic light storm, and the demons were instantly swallowed up by the magnetic light storm.
Amid the chaos, they vaguely heard the old salamander's maniacal laughter echoing from the storm, "Haha, thank you all!"
"Bastard!"
"As expected, a cunning and treacherous old fox!"
……
Unexpectedly, their attempt to threaten the old salamander backfired, and they were outmaneuvered instead. The demons cursed them angrily, but it was too late. They had no choice but to use their magical treasures to desperately resist the magnetic storm.
The storm was massive.
Qin Sang and his group, who were on their way, sensed the strange change ahead and then witnessed the riot in Death Valley.
As they watched the magnetic storm sweeping in, Xi Bu and Yin Weng looked surprised. While they hesitated, Qin Sang rushed into the storm without hesitation.
'Whoosh! '
The magnetic needle in his hand spun wildly, instantly reaching the limit of this treasure.
The immortal mountain in Qin Sang's other hand grew wildly, like a solid high wall blocking the way.
He sensed the demon cultivators in the storm, but finding that the old salamander was not there, he ignored them and used the immortal mountain to clear a path, rushing into the storm against the current.
On the other side, the old salamander swiftly flew towards its target.
The magnetic storm is one of the biggest problems in Death Valley. The Crimson Tide Salamanders have tried everything to solve it but have been unable to. After a while, they discovered that the magnetic storm is like a living creature that wanders around Death Valley and will attack intruders on its own. The Crimson Tide Salamanders call it the Magnetic Beast, but in reality, the Magnetic Beast is not a living creature and has no consciousness.
It feigned compliance with those creatures to get them to help it entangle the Magnetic Light Beast, killing two birds with one stone. Now that it had succeeded, it could focus on obtaining the Phoenix Blood.
With its target right in front of it, the old salamander suddenly felt a sense of alarm, realizing that a bolt of blue lightning had broken through the magnetic light and was chasing after it.
Qin Sang's gaze passed over the old salamander and saw the strange phenomenon in the magnetic light, and she immediately realized that that was the old salamander's target.
"Fellow Daoist, is Phoenix Blood just ahead?"
The next moment, Qing Lei caught up, and the old salamander was immediately shrouded in a shadow.
Qin Sang asked the question, but her actions showed no mercy.
Unaffected by the magnetic light, Mount Daiyu possessed unparalleled power. The old salamander was terrified, and a beam of white light shot out from its head, within which two wings unfurled like a giant umbrella. However, even a late-stage Void Refinement expert would find it difficult to withstand Qin Sang's swing of Mount Daiyu, let alone the old salamander. With a deafening boom, the giant umbrella caved in the middle, cracks instantly spreading across its surface, and finally, unable to withstand the weight, it shattered into pieces.
Under the giant umbrella, however, the old salamander was nowhere to be seen.
He realized that his opponent was too strong to defeat, so he decisively fled.
Qin Sang caught a glimpse of an unusual magnetic light. The immortal mountain trembled, suppressing it in place. However, it was just a precious pearl. The old salamander was nowhere to be found. It must have escaped by using the pearl and the magnetic light.
"A gecko shedding its tail is certainly decisive..."
Seeing that she had failed to keep the old salamander, Qin Sang did not look for him again and went on her own.
The magnetic needle had reached its limit, but with the help of Mount Daiyu, Qin Sang still managed to pass through the magnetic light and was surprised to find that there was a huge cavity inside the Valley of Death.
There is no magnetic light here, but the surrounding magnetic light reflects various colors into the room, yet it is unusually calm.
At this moment, Zhuque emerged from the Thousand-Pound Ring, but before she could even stand firmly, her expression changed, and she disappeared back inside.
"There's a dragon!"
