Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique

Chapter 881: Chapter 20: On the Eve of Battle

Swish.

The void trembled, and the Roc King appeared, falling from mid-air.

Wow!

The Roc King spewed a mouthful of fresh blood, his face pale as a sheet.

“Uncle.”

“Senior.”

…

Jin Shengyuan and Lin Feng quickly ran over, Jin Shengyuan held the Roc King in his arms, his breath now weak, the situation indeed dire.

Jin Shengyuan’s face was filled with terror, fearing the Roc King might pass away.

“Uncle, don’t leave me. If you leave me, Shengyuan will have no family anymore.”

Jin Shengyuan’s voice was sorrowful.

“Granny, come quickly and see how Senior Roc King is doing!” Lin Feng said anxiously.

Granny Fengh Li came, checked for a moment, and sighed, “The Tao Injury has recurred, harming the foundation; it’s unlikely he can hold on.”

“Granny, save my uncle, please, I beg you, granny.” Jin Shengyuan pleaded.

“Where’s the Creation Stone? Bring it out. I must refine the Creation Stone into his Purple Mansion.”

Granny Fengh Li said.

The Purple Mansion is a crucial acupoint within the cultivator’s body, where the Primordial Spirit resides.

It is also the bridge for cultivators above the Creation Realm to commune with Heaven and Earth.

With the Tao Injury, the Purple Mansion is destroyed first.

Once the Purple Mansion is devastated, the Tao Injury rapidly spreads throughout the cultivator’s body, then obliterates them.

“Here it is.”

Lin Feng hurriedly took out the Creation Stone.

Swish.

Granny Fengh Li cut down half the Creation Stone, which belonged to both the Roc King and Jin Shengyuan.

Then, Granny Fengh Li pinched out various complex spells.

These were artifact refining techniques.

“Time is short; it can only be briefly refined.”

Granny Fengh Li said in a deep voice.

Currently, the Snow Flood Dragon, Xiang Hongtu, Master Yuan Zhen, Chu Dongchen, and others are surely searching for their whereabouts, which Lin Feng naturally knows.

Hence, time equates to life.

After brief sacrificial refining, Granny Fengh Li struck the Creation Stone into the Roc King’s Purple Mansion.

The Roc King’s breath began to stabilize.

“Thank you, Taoist friend!” The Roc King opened his eyes.

“Really overturned my understanding. Enduring a Tao Injury and persisting for three hundred years without dying, it’s truly world-shaking,” Granny Fengh Li exclaimed, then looked at Jin Shengyuan, “Help your uncle up. Let’s find a place for your uncle to recuperate.”

“Thank you for your great kindness, granny,” Jin Shengyuan showed an expression full of gratitude, and helped the Roc King up.

“Swish!”

…

Granny Fengh Li slashed again, dividing the remaining half of the Creation Stone into two pieces.

She took one piece, the other clearly meant for Lin Feng.

Lin Feng was stunned for a moment, then showed a look of joy.

He hadn’t expected Granny Fengh Li would give him a portion of the Creation Stone as well.

During the time interacting with Granny Fengh Li, Lin Feng felt she was someone with a cold exterior but a warm heart, evident from her rescuing the Roc King.

“Thank you, granny.” Lin Feng put away the Creation Stone, then bowed to Granny Fengh Li.

“No need for such formality, I don’t buy it. Let’s go, find a quiet place, hopefully outwit everyone.”

Granny Fengh Li cast mana to envelop the group and fly toward the distance.

Ultimately, they stopped within a mountain range.

Snow State was always snow-laden, so even the mountain ranges were covered in snow.

The four found a cave to hide in.

Then Granny Fengh Li deployed Spirit Array Skill, sealing the cave.

Lin Feng smiled wryly.

It seemed he had underestimated Granny Fengh Li, as the formations she deployed now were superior to those Lin Feng knew.

Granny Fengh Li was not only an excellent forging master.

But also an extremely skilled Spirit Array Master.

“You all take a rest if possible, there might be a battle,” Granny Fengh Li raised her eyelids and said.

She worried they would be discovered sooner or later.

After all, Snow State was the territory of the Xiang Family.

Currently, not only were the Xiang Family’s experts searching, but also the Chu Family, Master Yuan Zhen, and Snow Flood Dragon, looking for their whereabouts.

Lin Feng and Jin Shengyuan nodded, they closed their eyes to rest.

But neither felt the urge to sleep.

Jin Shengyuan occasionally glanced at the Roc King, sitting cross-legged deep inside.

His face full of worry.

“With the Creation Stone suppressing the senior’s Purple Mansion, the Tao Injury should be contained. Senior will gradually improve, so there’s no need to worry too much.” Lin Feng patted Jin Shengyuan’s shoulder and said.

Jin Shengyuan clenched his teeth, saying, “If my uncle hadn’t been stricken by the Tao Injury, Snow Flood Dragon, Xiang Hongtu, Master Yuan Zhen, and Chu Dongchen are nothing but clowns before my uncle.”

“How did the senior get injured?” Lin Feng asked curiously.

Jin Shengyuan’s eyes showed hatred, “Three hundred years ago, my uncle crossed the Reincarnation Tribulation. At the most crucial moment, he was ambushed by Nine Great experts. Despite succeeding in crossing the tribulation, he suffered a Tao Injury.”

“Who are these people?” Lin Feng was startled.

“I don’t know, my uncle never mentioned it, but I heard from a clan elder that there were monks from the Western Region Buddha Country, Taoist experts, the Human Emperor of Ancient Dynasty, the Holy Master of Ancient Sacred Land, and even Demon Clan Ancestors…”

“These people didn’t want the Roc King to become a strong Reincarnation Realm cultivator,” Lin Feng sighed.

After interacting with the Roc King, Lin Feng felt he didn’t have the demeanor of a mighty figure, but was approachable, like a kind elder.

The Roc King gained fame in his youth, with many Demon Clan elders then hoping he would unify the Demon Clan in the future, ending its chaotic division and drawing the Demon Clan together to revive its past glory.

Perhaps, this was why certain forces feared the Roc King.

As for the experts participating in ambushing the Roc King, involving Demon Clan Ancestors was understandable.

The Demon Clan’s forces were extremely fragmented, with some Demons living in seclusion, indifferent to worldly affairs, while others were ruthless and slaughtered innocents, being exceedingly ambitious.

The majority of Demons might support the Roc King, a “wise king,” in unifying the Demon Clan forces.

But some Demons would absolutely oppose this scene, wanting carefree, unrestricted lives.

If tamed by the Roc King, such days would be gone forever.

So, certain Demon Clan Ancestors participated in that battle, desiring to slay the Roc King before he became powerful enough to unify Demon Clan tribes.

Lin Feng suspected that the Demon Clan Ancestor-level figures involved in ambushing the Roc King were related to Flame Demon King and numerous Demon Kings, as Flame Demon King and numerous Demon Kings were ruthless Great Demons who would never want to be subdued by the Roc King, then constrained by him. Thus, they aimed to eliminate the Roc King.

The Roc King spent a day familiarizing himself with the use of the Creation Stone, while simultaneously suppressing the Tao Injury.

Then they set off, before leaving Snow State, the four were clearly inseparable. The Roc King proposed going to the neighboring Lu’an Continent, as it was the nearest state.

If they could enter Lu’an Continent and use the Teleportation Array to leave, the Xiang Family, Chu Family, Master Yuan Zhen, and Snow Flood Dragon wouldn’t be able to do anything to them.

Making up their minds, they headed toward Lu’an Continent but were intercepted by Xiang Family experts.

Snow Flood Dragon, Xiang Family, Chu Family, and Master Yuan Zhen each took a direction to search for the whereabouts of the Roc King, Granny Fengh Li, Lin Feng, and Jin Shengyuan.

The Xiang Family’s responsible direction was the route to Lu’an Continent.
