Chapter 97: Scaly Dragon (Subscribe)

Li Qiufeng also looked at the crystal coffin in the image, and her voice contained a hint of lingering fear: "This should be a Seventh Realm Blood Blade Princess, and she has a special bloodline. Look at the purple Yao Yuan crystal next to it, and the huge creature inside is probably her 'dragon'. This dragon has flesh and scales, it is clearly a Seventh Realm dragon!

Judging from what I sensed at the time, she was most likely dead, or in a state of self-sealing. Her aura was dead, yet powerful!"

Lin Rui looked in the direction of her finger with a strange look in his eyes.

Inside this giant purple crystal that was twenty feet high and as big as a hill, he saw a huge figure about seven feet tall. It was in human form, but covered with golden scales all over its body, with barbs on its joints, and looked extremely majestic and domineering.

——That is what Tianjixing calls a "dragon", and what the Earth Federation calls a "colonial war dragon".

Only when one reaches the sixth level of cultivation and enters the state of dragon transformation, can one possess a "dragon".

Master Du frowned upon hearing this: "The aura is deadly, yet so powerful? Isn't this a contradiction?"

"That's because you haven't seen it."

Li Qiufeng glanced at Master Du and said, "These images I projected cannot fully reflect her terrifying nature. This woman's aura is extremely powerful, and I can't even begin to describe it in words. Her body seems to be connected to the entire surrounding Purple Yao Yuan Crystal vein. Her body is in close connection with the surrounding Purple Yao Yuan Crystal, just like the scorching sun, which can melt everything!
This person is the source of the abnormal changes in the Yuan Jing vein. All the purple Yao Yuan Jing here today are due to her, and all the Yang Fire Yuan Qi is due to her. However, her aura is indeed dead. I don't sense any life. She must have been dead for a long time. Her body is well preserved because of the purple Yao Yuan Jing.

She paused at this point and said, "I suspect that all the arrangements and actions taken by County Lieutenant Zhu Lingshi and Zhu Tianmao in Yinyue County were most likely for this Blood Blade Princess."

Everyone looked solemn. After seeing this, how could they not guess what Zhu Lingshi and Zhu Tianmao wanted to do?
In this small Yinyue County, the only one who can attract Eunuch Zhu is the Seventh Realm Blood Blade Princess in the Yuanjing Mine.

A Seventh Realm Blood Blade Princess would be of great help to a great figure like His Royal Highness the King of Han.

What's more, the blood power of this Blood Knife Princess must be extremely powerful.

Only Master Du looked surprised and doubtful.

Could it be that this Eunuch Zhu wanted to revive Blood Blade Princess? The problem was, how could there be any method of resurrection in this world?
If people could really come back to life from the dead, then all the emperors, generals, and powerful men in the ninth realm who had died in the past would be waiting to crawl out of their coffins.

Looking at the arrangements made by County Lieutenant Zhu Lingshi, he was afraid that he had other intentions, but he couldn't figure it out for the time being.

Lin Rui then pointed to the four corners of the image and said, "There are many crystal coffins around here, about seventy or eighty. There seem to be people inside, but some of the images are blurry."

"Captain Lin, this is an image I created using the Mind Imagery technique. It reflects the impression in my mind. My attention was drawn to the Blood Blade Princess and her dragon at the time, so I only glanced at both sides without a closer look. My attainments in formation talismans are also insufficient to discern the true nature of this."

Li Qiufeng was very respectful to Lin Rui and answered every question he asked. "There should be living people in there. If I'm guessing correctly, they are all descendants of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Look carefully, there are blood grooves under these crystal coffins. They are connected to the crystal coffin of the Seventh Realm Blood Blade Princess, and together with the Yuan Stones they arranged, they form an array altar. The uncle and nephew of the Zhu family may need the blood of these people."

"I see!" Lin Rui's gaze returned to the Seventh Realm Blood Blade Princess. He narrowed his eyes in thought and said, "I see there's another empty coffin here, directly opposite Blood Blade Princess's crystal coffin. According to formation common sense, these two points are the exact opposite of yin and yang, the collision of movement and stillness, the interplay of reality and illusion. Why is this happening?"

Master Du's mind moved when he heard this: "I know what they want to do. They should be refining. They plan to use the spirit of your Blood Saber Princess, Lin Twelve, and the body of this Seventh Realm Blood Saber Princess as the main body to refine a new demon."

He spoke in a distraught voice, "Look at the formation beneath the mineral vein. It's clearly the work of an expert. They intend to burn the 30,000 people and livestock of Silver Moon County to extract their spiritual essence, refine it, and ultimately elevate the power of this man-made demon's spirit and bloodline to the pinnacle! If they succeed, they'll possess a brand-new Blood Blade Princess of immense power!"

"Creating a new demon?" Lin Rui crossed his arms, deep in thought. "Since it's based on my Blood Blade Princess' soul, can I still control her?"

"Twelve, you're overthinking it!" Master Du sneered. "By then, her spirit will undoubtedly be cleansed by the blazing fire of the Purple Radiant Crystal, and will also be blended with the essence of the souls of 30,000 people in Silver Moon County. In the end, the Blood Blade Princess's soul will be as pure as a blank sheet of paper, without a trace of her past. That Eunuch Zhu will definitely not leave any hidden dangers behind."

——Master Du guessed in his heart that Zhu Tianmao was most likely refining a guardian demon for His Royal Highness the King of Han.

The tens of thousands of people who were burned to death in Yinyue County were all raw materials for her sacrifice.

This eunuch Zhu will definitely do his best to achieve perfection.

Lin Rui stared intently at the image before him, a faint light flickering in his eyes: "But now my Blood Blade Princess is still not in place. Does this mean that we still have a chance to save the situation?"

Master Du's mind fluttered. He looked up at the people before him and smiled bitterly, "You might be able to stop them from exchanging souls, but the people of this city no longer have a chance."

The speed at which the few of them spoke and communicated was actually very fast. It took only about thirty breaths from the time Li Qiufeng flew to the cave entrance.

Master Du saw Cao's army and others who had retreated to twenty feet away, all sitting cross-legged on the ground with frowns on their faces.

Zhang Tianchang hadn't spoken for a long time. His face was flushed and it seemed like fire was coming out of his mouth and nose.

Even a fourth-level martial artist like Zhang Tianchang is like this now, let alone others?

Master Du estimated that within half a quarter to a quarter of a second, all the people in the city would spontaneously combust to death.

"It's impossible to stop them from swapping souls." Li Qiufeng shook her head slightly. "We don't stand a chance! Like I said, there are a large number of demons down there, including at least eight fourth-level demons. None of us can match that Eunuch Zhu."

She then put her hands together and formed a lotus-shaped seal with her ten fingers.

Peng!
At this moment, a ball of silver-white 'Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire' suddenly appeared on the ten fingers of her hands. Li Qiufeng changed her tone and said, "But I have a way to take you all out of Yinyue County. With the Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire I taught you, you can prevent spontaneous combustion. However, the number of people cannot exceed 100."

When the people around heard this, most of them looked happy, as if there was light at the end of the tunnel.

Wang Sen was also excited when he heard this, thinking that this was undoubtedly the best solution.

Even though he would be linked to the Church of Light afterwards, it was still better than becoming an illegal immigrant. However, he didn't know why he felt uncomfortable, and there was a slight resistance in his body, and he didn't want to leave just like that.

He instinctively thought of the neighbors who had sent him eggs, vegetables, bacon and sausages in the past few days, and also thought of those who were grateful to them after he and the other two killed the demon.

Wang Sen couldn't help but slap himself hard, thinking that he had only been on Tianji Star for a few days and hadn't had any in-depth contact with them, at most just nodding acquaintances. How could he start empathizing with these Tianji people? This was a taboo for alien walkers.

So you have to go!
Zhang Tianchang jumped onto the roof of a two-story building next to him without saying a word, and looked around the city with a gloomy look.

At this time, the purple light covering the entire Yinyue County was getting stronger and stronger, and the surrounding temperature was getting higher and higher.

Zhang Tianchang also saw flames in some places in the city.

In this short period of time, some elderly people have started to spontaneously combust.

They had lived in Yinyue County for too long, and too much purple crystal dust had accumulated in their bodies.

Zhang Tianchang clenched his fists tightly, his eyes fierce and ferocious: "Then please ask the priest to take them away."

He still wanted to go down and try his luck, at least to take a few more people with him before he died.

Cao Jun stared and groaned, "Leave? What the hell! There are 20 or 30 people in my family. How many can the priest take away?"

The other captains of the police also showed no joy. They clenched their teeth tightly and their eyes were bloodshot.

Lin Rui said nothing, looking at the image reflected by Li Qiufeng, thinking about how many soul points the monsters under this cave have in total. It would be enough to repair his battle spirit ring to the third stage.

Lin Rui squinted his eyes and looked at the body of the Seventh Realm Blood Blade Princess, and thought about his own Fourth Realm Blood Blade Princess, as well as the Sixth Realm War Spirit sensed by the War Spirit Ring.

The cost of giving up is too high, and there should still be opportunities here -

Lin Rui did see an opportunity. His mastery of basic formation knowledge and magic techniques allowed him to detect some flaws in the formation altar in the image.

This is not due to the array itself, but due to the extremely extreme environment under the mineral vein.

Of course, the level of the person who set up the formation was not very good. It looked like he was just reading someone else's formation diagram.

Unsure of his own judgment, he called out to the Ringwraiths in his mind: "Ringwraiths, help me upgrade my basic formations and divine control techniques to the Grandmaster level!"

Tip: To deduce the basic formation to the Grandmaster level, 1000 soul points are required; to deduce the magic technique to the Grandmaster level, 3000 soul points are required.

Lin Rui's mind was working at high speed instantly, deducing all the essential mysteries of the basic formation and the magic technique of controlling the law at an incredible speed.

His eyes grew brighter and brighter, and he became more and more certain of his own judgment. However, this was still very risky, and he would risk his life—

At this time, Lin Rui saw a red shadow in the image again.

That should be the scene that Li Qiufeng saw at a glance. Her impression was vague, so the reflected image was also blurry.

However, Lin Rui recognized her at the first sight. It was his Blood Knife Princess Ji Xueying.

Not only were the woman's clothes in tatters, she also had several wounds on her body. The most important thing was her eyes, which were filled with anger, despair and unwillingness.

——This silly girl is quite pitiful and stupid. Once she lost her master, she was bullied to this extent.

Lin Rui began to think that the risk was not that great. He had at least a 10% chance of winning. No, it was a 50% chance.

As soon as this thought came to his mind, he took a deep breath and cursed Xue Bogao in his heart.

I'm a steady and kind-hearted student, but I've been influenced by Xue Bogao into this! Is that just 50%? Is that just consoling myself?

How could he be so crazy when he had a younger sister to take care of at home? No, absolutely not, he couldn't be so stupid—

Lin Rui then said expressionlessly: "I think there is still a chance. No matter what, I want to go down and give it a try!"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Lin Rui in shock.

Lin Rui extended his hand to them without any hesitation: "But I need a large number of thunder and fire talismans. High Priest Li, you are a dual practitioner of magic and martial arts, right? And Master Du, I would like you to give me all the thunder and fire talismans in your hands!"

Li Qiufeng couldn't help but feel shaken and her heart was beating fast.

She stared at Lin Rui intently, the 'Holy Thunder Fire' burning in her hand flashing with flames and lightning.

Li Qiufeng sighed with admiration, "As expected of a Saint, you truly possess a 'Heart of Light'!"

She thought it was no wonder that the 'Great Holy King of Light' attached so much importance to Lin Twelve.
