Chapter 188 Fishing
Wow, it can even hide it!
Ning Xiaoxi sensed it and found that there was no spiritual energy fluctuation in that area, nor was there anything unusual.
[Dumpling, is it done?]
It's done.
【Don't you feel anything?】
[You can even use a feeling to set a trap!]
What level of monster can I kill at most right now?
[High-level beginners are no problem, intermediate-level can only be trapped and require other methods to kill; high-level is difficult.]
Alright, let's go find out where those descendants of Xuanming are hiding!
The Spirit Crystal Heart Armor suddenly trembled, stretching out the ten-zhang-long snake skin from the cave, transforming it into a knife to cut, then turning the spirit crystals into spirit crystal threads to thread onto the snake skin, finally stringing them together into a full-body scale armor.
The bathtub inside the main hall was filled with spirit crystal liquid, the concentration of which was even greater than that of the spirit crystals themselves. The scales were soaked in the spirit crystal liquid, and strands of spiritual energy washed over them, penetrating into the scales and resonating with the aurora-like colors of the scales, making the entire hall radiant with light.
Ling Jingxin stretched out her scale armor and put it on Ning Xiaoxi's body, close to her undergarments.
Thankfully, it wasn't worn directly against the skin, otherwise Ning Xiaoxi really wouldn't have dared to wear it. What girl isn't afraid of snakes!
After Ling Jingxin finished doing all that, she slid into Ning Xiaoxi's palm and pressed it tightly against her.
Hmm, is it because they're afraid she'll find a suitable weapon and won't need it anymore?
Has it gained sentience?
[The Spirit Crystal Heart is the essence of spirit crystals condensed over millions of years. You subdued it with your blood, and it is now connected to your will. It hasn't gained sentience; it's simply that the magical artifact has become sentient, allowing it to sense your intentions.]
In other words, we can't develop spiritual intelligence. Okay, then we won't develop spiritual intelligence.
He pulled the somewhat damaged demon core out of the dragon vein's chest and said, "Lend it to me for a bit so I can find their lair. I'll return it to you when I find it."
He took the black bead out of the beast cloak and held it up to the demon core, saying, "Come on, blow a breath on it."
The black bead froze for a moment, then flipped over and crashed into the demon core.
"Click, click!" The sound rang out.
Ning Xiaoxi quickly stopped, "Hey, hey, don't break it! We still need it!"
A faint wisp of demonic energy emanated from the white demon core, and the subtle connection guided the way like a beacon.
Ning Xiaoxi's eyes lit up. "Found it."
With a step, he floated away along the tether.
After traveling about a hundred miles northwest of the icy plateau, there is a towering ice wall. From a distance, it blends into the icy plateau, but upon closer inspection, it turns out to be a city wall.
Is this a city built of ice and snow?
No record found.
[Let's go over there, make a record, and enrich the demon database.]
After Ning Xiaoxi finished speaking, she quietly approached, her aurora scales shimmering, her figure seemingly hidden in the snow and ice, revealing no trace of her presence.
The ice wall was ten zhang high, and two tall figures with human faces and bird bodies stood on it, surveying the surroundings.
There was an open gate at the foot of the wall. The gate was not tall, only about ten feet high. A man and a woman stood at the gate, dressed in white, with white hair and white eyes, and bare feet.
"Brother Han, Ying'er has been gone for so long, I hope nothing bad has happened to her."
"Qiongmei, Ying'er is still young. Forming a Core is not an easy thing. Let's wait a little longer."
"If the elders hadn't forbade it, we should have protected it until it formed its core."
“Children who are protected will never grow up; we can’t hold Ying’er back.”
Ning Xiaoxi hid in the snow, listening to the conversation.
[Two mid-tier, level nine demons, Xiao Xi, start with them.]
Only two? That's a bit of a waste of my formation.
Let's test the waters first!
Ning Xiaoxi took out the demon core again, and a faint demonic aura wafted out.
"Ying'er!" Qiongmei was very perceptive and familiar with her child's aura, so she sensed it instantly.
"Qiong Mei?"
"Brother Han, it's Ying'er's aura! Hurry!" Qiongmei sensed the weakness of the aura; it was definitely not the aura of someone who had successfully formed their core. "Something's happened to Ying'er."
Ning Xiaoxi took the demon core and rose with the wind, leading two demons to follow.
They arrived at the hundred-mile area in the blink of an eye, and Ning Xiaoxi raised her hand and threw the demon core into the middle of the formation.
Qiongmei spread her wings and flew into the formation to retrieve the demon core, but Hange stood warily at the edge of the formation and refused to enter.
Ning Xiaoxi's small hand appeared silently behind Han Ge and pushed him in hard as well.
"Ying'er!!!" Qiong Mei's shrill cry rang out as she picked up the demon core.
Han Ge was pushed into the formation and collided with Qiong Mei, revealing his true form.
Ning Xiaoxi then patted the array, and spiritual energy surged, activating the array.
One golden cage after another rose up, blocking the direction Han Ge was flying towards. The green snake on his ear shot out and was encased in two cages.
Qiongmei then realized what was happening, put the demon core into her bosom, and the two green snakes beneath her feet swelled up to block the ever-growing golden railings around her.
With a series of "plop!" sounds, the green snake's body was pierced by the golden railing, and its blood splattered into the formation.
"Ah!" Qiongmei cried out in pain, spreading her wings as if trying to fly into the sky.
The sound of "plop plop!" rang out again as the golden bars pierced through Qiongmei's wings, binding her to the cage as well.
Han Ge was surrounded by golden bars, with no way to turn around, completely imprisoned inside the cage. As he turned, he kicked out two green snakes from beneath his feet, hoping they would escape through the gaps in the bars.
"Buzz!"
The golden cage closed, a large cage containing a smaller one, gleaming with golden light. The two green snakes crashed headfirst into the golden light, their necks shattered and their spines broken, before they fell into the cage.
Qiongmei was pierced through the wings and hung inside the cage. Her demon core climbed up her chest and abdomen, and was finally caught in the mouth of the green snake on her left ear. The green snake curled up into a ball, and the green snake on her other ear wrapped it inside. Like a rolling ball, it rushed from the ground to the outside of the cage.
The entire formation blazed with golden light, and streams of demonic energy were drawn out from within. Han Ge's two green snakes were the first to succumb, exploding and dying. Qiong Mei, having lost her demon core, then dissipated, the broken demon core hidden within her body rolling out. The rolling green snakes crashed into the golden cage, their flesh melting away, leaving only a single demon core that tumbled to the ground.
"Qiong Mei!" Han Ge's wings had already begun to melt away. Seeing Qiong Mei dissipate, he cried out in pain and turned to look at Ning Xiaoxi, "Celestial Master?"
Ning Xiaoxi smiled slightly and replied politely, "Greetings, Tianji subordinate."
Han Ge gathered his last wisp of energy, intending to detonate the demon core.
Ning Xiaoxi slammed her palm onto the golden cage, and the golden sword pierced Han Ge's remaining body, turning it into a hedgehog. His demon core broke out and fell to the ground.
The body, having lost its demon core, vanished without a trace in an instant.
The golden cage shimmered, absorbing all the demonic energy within before slowly retreating back to the ground.
Ning Xiaoxi saw that the cage had calmed down again. She tried to sense it, but there was no change.
The formation is undamaged and can continue to be used.
Ning Xiaoxi's eyes lit up again. This was great news!
