Planting an immortal tree in the wizarding world

Chapter 162 Dragon Profound Pill, Earth-Embracing Demonic Dragon!

Ever since Augustus V met his great-uncle, he almost single-handedly performed an extremely magical spell to quell the rebellion of the three great wizarding families and the Necromancers.

He felt that his great-uncle had made new progress in his wizardry and was probably able to kill the traitor "Bloodline Wizard" Sophie Oren.

After making his request, he waited for Dolifa's response.

After listening, Dolifa pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, I will go."

Upon hearing this, Augustus V was overjoyed, his face flushing red.

"Grand Uncle, the Augustus family has been able to continue thanks to you!"

Dolifa nodded and bid farewell to Augustus V.

After Augustus V descended the stairs, Lyon couldn't help but say:
"Are you confident you can kill Sophie Oren without using methods from the Nightmare World?"

"I'm not sure," Dolifa said without hesitation.

“Isn’t Sophie Oren just a Grand Wizard, while you are a Legendary Wizard? He’s a level below you. Don’t you have any confidence?” Leon asked again.

Dolifa said, "I have the coordinates of the Nightmare World, and it's possible that Sophie also has the coordinates of other worlds, thus gaining some powerful abilities."

Leon sighed: "You've only just managed to get rid of most of the side effects of using the Nightmare Stone. If you use it again, all that time will have been wasted."

"When will I be able to leave this wizard's tower and see my father and brother?"

Dolifa chuckled twice and then said, "If the Orc Empire invades, it may also affect your family. It would be good for you to fight against Sophie with me."

Upon hearing Dolifa's words, Lyon recalled his days guarding the border, nodded, and said nothing more.

……

The border guards set off again from various territories of the Kingdom of Valant towards the border.

Ronan and Bran received a letter from Layton saying that their family might have received special treatment from Lyon, as the wizarding families of the southeastern province had not summoned him to guard the border this time.

Ronan thought that perhaps Leon would also go to guard the border during this invasion by the Orc Empire.

In this way, Lyon took over the family's summons.

After glancing at Bran, Ronan returned to the bungalow to continue cultivating the Myriad Trees Longevity Scripture.

……

Two more months have passed.

During this period, Ronan answered the call of the True Realm Sect and joined the battle between the True Realm Sect and the Heavenly Sword Sect.

In this battle, he killed a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Heavenly Sword Sect and obtained a storage bag.

In the storage bag, besides the secret manual and spirit stones, there was also a page of pill formula.

The recipe describes it as "Dragon Profound Pill," a high-grade second-tier elixir.

After taking it, it can increase cultivation speed.

During this period, Ronan mainly relied on the pills he obtained from the cultivators of the Heavenly Sword Sect, as well as the pills he had left over, to cultivate.

I don't have many pills left, so I'll have to refine some myself.

However, the pill formulas he had were not of the same grade as this "Dragon Profound Pill".

In terms of medicinal efficacy, it is probably even less effective than the "Dragon Profound Pill".

One of the main ingredients for refining the "Dragon Profound Pill" is the essence of a second-tier demon dragon.

In today's cultivation world, let alone demonic dragons, even ordinary demonic beasts are all kept by various sects.

This elixir formula is estimated to have been passed down from over a thousand years ago.

'Perhaps it was passed down from this monk's ancestors.'

Ronan spent his days in the botanical garden of the bungalow, consuming elixirs and practicing the Longevity Scripture of All Trees.

Half a month later, he had finally consumed all the pills.

'I'll have to refine the elixir myself.'

'The main ingredient of this Dragon Profound Pill is a second-tier demonic dragon, so a second-tier dragon-type magical beast can be used as a substitute.'

Immediately, Ronan summoned Hongmeng, retrieved the well-preserved encyclopedia of monsters from the Kingdom of Valant, and located the habitats of various dragon-type monsters.

Today, the dragon-like magical beasts scattered throughout the Kingdom of Valant are all sub-dragon creatures.

The purebred dragons are hiding somewhere in the Wizarding World, or perhaps in a plane outside of it.

'However, even in the world of cultivation, there are no more true dragons.'

'Those true dragons that soar through the clouds have become legends in the world of cultivation. Even now, cultivators are not entirely sure if such dragons truly existed in ancient times.'

'Unlike purebred dragons in the Wizarding World, at least the wizards believed they were hiding.'

Ronan quickly learned the distribution of dragon-like magical beasts in the vicinity.

There are not many dragon-type magical beasts to begin with.

Because dragon-like magical beasts are incredibly valuable from head to toe, their numbers gradually decreased due to repeated hunting.

He learned from some formal wizards that many wizarding families have their own magical beast forests, where they raise dragon-like magical beasts.

Given Leon's connections, Ronan could probably obtain dragon-type magical beast materials from some wizarding families without spending a single gold coin or magic stone.

However, what he wanted to obtain were materials from second-tier dragon-type magical beasts.

In the eyes of outsiders, his qualifications are only grade C.

In the wizard's mind, aptitude is something that cannot be changed.

With his C-grade aptitude, even if he frantically amassed resources, he would at most be a second-level wizard apprentice.

At this wizard level, there's no need to use materials from second-tier dragon-type magical beasts.

If he were to ask other wizards for materials from second-tier dragon-type magical beasts, it would definitely arouse suspicion.

If he were here, other wizards would discover that his progress in cultivation far exceeds his wizarding aptitude.

Who knows, they might be captured and studied by wizards.

In that case, he might have to escape the wizarding world and stay in the cultivation world forever.

Therefore, he still had to collect the materials for second-tier dragon-type magical beasts himself.

'In the Forest of Gurt, there dwells a type of dragon-like magical beast.'

According to the information, there are about eighty kinds of magical beasts in the Forest of Gurt.

Dragon-type magical beasts only account for one type, which shows how rare they are.

'The Forest of Gurt is the closest monster forest to Triumph City, let's go check it out there first.'

With that thought in mind, Ronan went out.

After leaving Triumph City, once he was sure no one was around, he immediately changed his clothes and drank a mid-level transformation potion.

With a wave of his hand, he summoned the Azure Spirit Sword, which transformed into a streak of light and headed towards the Forest of Gurt.

……

He used the "Seven Star Sword Escape" technique, and the Forest of Gurt arrived in the blink of an eye.

According to records, the strongest magical beast in the Forest of Gurt is a third-tier magical beast, which resides deep within the Forest of Gurt.

Tier 1 magical beasts are the most numerous, and they are distributed in most areas of the forest.

There are far fewer second-tier magical beasts compared to first-tier magical beasts.

Therefore, second-tier magical beasts are much harder to find than first-tier magical beasts.

If you're looking for a Tier 2 magical beast, you might sometimes be blocked by a Tier 1 magical beast.

However, Ronan possesses divine sense, allowing him to avoid first-tier magical beasts.

Once he reached the edge of the forest, he immediately landed and slipped inside.

Wizards typically do not fly when hunting in the forest.

Although flying in the air can help avoid some monsters that roam on the ground.

However, there are also bird-like magical beasts in the Forest of Gurt, which are difficult to avoid when flying.

Furthermore, once they take to the air, they become easy targets if spotted by the wizards in the forest.

If they were in the air and spotted by two or more wizarding teams simultaneously, they might attack at the same time in their quest to kill and seize the treasure. In that case, you would be facing enemies from all sides.

Ronan cast a few Wind Chasing Talismans on himself and then flew swiftly through the woods.

As he flew, he fully unleashed his divine sense.

The sounds and movements within a radius of about a thousand meters were all transmitted into his mind.

He avoided the first-tier magical beast horde.

He also avoided several hunting parties.

He ventured deeper into the forest.

Tier 2 magical beasts are relatively difficult to find in the Monster Forest.

Second-tier dragon-type magical beasts are even harder to find.

After all, dragon-like magical beasts are hunting targets for many wizards.

Over the years, in order to avoid being hunted, these dragon-like magical beasts may have developed a set of methods to evade wizards and hide themselves.

Furthermore, the second-tier dragon-type magical beasts in the Forest of Gurt are called "Earth-burrowing Demon Dragons".

It is said that this kind of magical beast can bury itself in the ground for two days and two nights.

For ordinary wizards, it would be even more difficult to find such magical beasts.

Ronan bypassed the monsters and people, taking a very quiet route.

Occasionally, one might see deer-like magical beasts with entirely white fur, grazing on herbs in the forest.

Upon seeing Ronan, he looked up at him, and with a start, he took off running like lightning.

About half an hour later, Ronan had almost reached the depths of the forest.

His divine sense finally detected the earth-burrowing demon dragon.

It's not one head, but four.

Both were at the second tier, with enormous bodies, each about five meters long.

The other two were only at the first rank, clearly young dragons, and only a little over a meter long.

Ronan flew towards the four earth-burrowing demon dragons.

Before they even got close, their divine sense suddenly detected that the two earth-burrowing demon dragons suddenly shuddered, as if they had sensed something. They roared at the two young dragons and then, together with the two young dragons, plunged into the soil.

Ronan frowned slightly.

He had completely gathered all his aura and energy fluctuations into the spiritual realm of his dantian.

Logically speaking, these magical beasts shouldn't be able to detect his presence.

'Could it be that these magical beasts have a premonition of impending danger?'

Ronan didn't delve into the matter further, but instead flew swiftly towards the four earth-burrowing demon dragons.

He discovered that although the four earth-burrowing dragons had burrowed underground, they had not left the area and were clearly observing.

Soon, Ronan flew to the woodland where the four earth-burrowing dragons lived.

Immediately, four streams of mud splashed up from the forest floor.

However, it was four earth-burrowing demonic dragons that leaped up from underground.

The shape of the Earth-Diving Demon Dragon is just like that of a giant lizard.

They have purple and brown scales, and their mouths are wide open, revealing rings of sharp white teeth with saliva hanging between them.

They seemed to sense that only Ronan had come, and so they all appeared.

For wizards, magical beasts are treasures.

For monsters, the flesh and blood of wizards are also a rare and nutritious food.

At this moment, the four earth-burrowing demon dragons surrounded Ronan from four directions.

brush!
Suddenly, the largest earth-burrowing dragon roared and pounced towards Ronan.

The surrounding air seemed to be stirred up by this demonic dragon, and the nearby trees rustled.

Ronan felt as if a small mountain was crashing into him.

He flipped his hand over, and the Azure Spirit Sword appeared in his palm.

This Azure Spirit Sword was forged from two thousand-year-old Azure Spirit Green Cloud Bamboo and mithril, and it is his most powerful sword.

Ronan pointed at the Earth-Dwelling Demon Dragon, and the Azure Spirit Sword transformed into a streak of azure light, slicing across the dragon's belly.

Wow!

The hard scales of the burrowing dragon, which had caused headaches for many wizards and knights, were immediately cut open by the Azure Spirit Sword.

The large intestine and other internal organs poured out from the wound and fell to the ground.

Internal organs and blood were piled on the ground, emitting billowing steam.

A foul, fishy odor emanated from it and permeated the surrounding area.

Upon seeing this, the other three earth-burrowing dragons immediately leaped into the soil, attempting to escape.

But as soon as Ronan had a thought, the Azure Spirit Sword, which had transformed into a blue light, immediately turned and drew an arc in the air.

In an instant, before the three-headed earth-burrowing dragon had even burrowed into the ground, a spray of blood erupted from its body.

However, in an instant, the Azure Spirit Sword pierced through the throats of the three earth-burrowing demon dragons.

However, this burrowing dragon has an extremely strong vitality.

Even with their throats injured, they were still able to move, and they plunged into the ground.

Ronan then made a sword incantation, and the Azure Spirit Sword plunged into the ground, leaving a large hole.

Immediately, a faint arc of green light flashed beneath the soil.

Immediately afterwards, blood seeped from three spots of soil.

Ronan raised his sword incantation, and the Azure Spirit Sword flew out of the soil, bringing with it a trail of dirt.

The Azure Spirit Sword trembled, emitting sword energy that shook away the mud and blood on it.

Ronan gestured, and it was pulled back into his dantian.

He chanted an incantation and performed an earth magic spell.

There are three patches of soil in the woodland, and suddenly, with one point as the center, the soil flows outward.

Before long, the body of the three-headed earth-burrowing dragon rose from the ground.

At this moment, the four earth-burrowing demon dragons, though severely injured, were not completely dead.

'Good vitality...'

Ronan released his divine sense, searching for the cores of the two second-tier earth-burrowing demonic dragons.

The core of a magical beast is something that only second-tier magical beasts possess; it is where a portion of the magical beast's energy resides.

In the world of cultivation, this core of a magical beast is usually referred to by cultivators as "beast essence".

After Ronan found the monster's core, he immediately conjured two wizard hands with sharp claws.

It reached inside the body of the earth-burrowing demon dragon.

Two more sprays of blood splattered.

After the wizard's hand emerged from the bodies of the two second-tier earth-burrowing dragons, it grasped an object the size of a goose egg in each hand.

The essence of the demonic dragon is one of the main ingredients for refining the Dragon Profound Pill.

After putting the two beast cores into his storage bag, Ronan began collecting the remaining magical beast materials.

The scales, eyes, teeth, claws, flesh and blood of monsters can all be used as materials.

Although, apart from selling them for money, these items are of little use to Ronan now.

But these are materials from dragon-type magical beasts after all, so they might be useful in the future.

So Ronan took out several containers, processed the monster materials briefly, stored them, and then put them into his storage bag.
