Chapter 518 - 273: Dahuang’s Advancement, White Jade Ganoderma
Black Dragon Mountain Range.
Inside a long, narrow canyon.
A Tier Two Earth Element Great Demon once resided here, but now, only blood and gore remained.
Li Chang’an arrived, released Dahuang, and had it track the scent of the Tier Three Earth Dragon.
A moment later.
He transformed into a streak of light.
Following Dahuang’s guidance, he shot straight into the depths of the Black Dragon Mountain Range.
About two hours later.
Li Chang’an landed outside a cave residence.
This cave residence had been left behind by an Ancient Cultivator. It was first discovered by a Human Race Cultivator, but was later occupied by a Tier Two Late Stage Earth Element Great Demon.
’This Great Demon was killed, too.’
Li Chang’an walked inside, his gaze calm as it swept across the entire cave.
The cave was filled with the stench of blood.
The corpse of the Earth Element Great Demon lay in the depths of the cave.
The Demon Core and the choicest parts of its flesh and blood had been devoured.
A strong Dragon Beast aura lingered in the cave.
"Dahuang, keep tracking it!"
Li Chang’an transformed into a streak of light and left the cave, continuing the pursuit based on Dahuang’s guidance.
For the next two days.
They arrived at the lairs of several Tier Two Great Demons, one after another, only to find mangled Demon Corpses.
In the blink of an eye, it was noon on the third day.
Just then, Dahuang suddenly gave a warning.
The aura of the Tier Three Earth Dragon had become crystal clear. It was just ahead.
Li Chang’an immediately recalled Dahuang and used the Refining Shadow Invisible Technique. His aura was concealed to the absolute limit, and his figure vanished on the spot as he stealthily approached the area ahead.
Soon, he saw the Ink-Scaled Earth Dragon.
It was covered in blood, sprawled over the corpse of a Quasi-Tier Three Earth Element Demon Beast, tearing huge bites of flesh. Its ferocious expression held a hint of satisfaction.
’Beast Taming Wheel, go!’
With a single thought, Li Chang’an controlled the Beast Taming Wheel with both his Fake Pill Magical Power and his Divine Sense.
The Beast Taming Wheel instantly erupted with golden light, like a magnificent sun descending from the heavens, and abruptly pressed down on the Ink-Scaled Earth Dragon.
"The Beast Taming Wheel!"
The Ink-Scaled Earth Dragon cried out in alarm, recognizing the Magical Treasure.
After all, it was a Demon Beast from a Nascent Soul Immortal Sect. Its knowledge was far greater than the Zhou Family’s Old Demon King’s, and it knew exactly what the Beast Taming Wheel was for.
For that very reason, it didn’t have the slightest intention of resisting. It instantly used its Earth Escape Technique, attempting to flee the Beast Taming Wheel’s suppression.
But in the next instant, the Beast Taming Wheel transformed into a streak of golden light, dove into the earth, and chased straight after it.
Just a few breaths later.
BOOM! The ground not far away suddenly exploded, and the Ink-Scaled Earth Dragon’s miserable figure appeared.
The Beast Taming Wheel was clamped around its neck. Golden symbols flew out one after another, striking its body, each one making it howl in agony.
"AGH—"
The Ink-Scaled Earth Dragon’s expression was one of pain as it wailed continuously.
"Which Elder is here? I’m not some wild mountain demon! I am a Demon Servant under Liu Xuanfeng of the Purple Mist Sect! I beg you to be merciful, Elder!"
Suppressed by the Beast Taming Wheel, it was completely powerless to resist and could only hastily announce its backing.
It hoped its opponent would be wary of the Purple Mist Sect’s name.
"Earth Dragon, if you want to live, answer a few of my questions."
Li Chang’an appeared, looking at it indifferently.
The Ink-Scaled Earth Dragon froze, then cried out in disbelief, "It’s you, Li Chang’an!"
It never would have imagined that Li Chang’an, whom it had considered prey, would dare to leave Changqing Mountain and take the initiative to hunt *it*!
Moreover, Li Chang’an’s strength far exceeded its estimates.
"You hid your strength so well!"
The Ink-Scaled Earth Dragon couldn’t help but feel frustrated. Li Chang’an’s disguise had been too good.
If it had known Li Chang’an was this powerful, it never would have spied on Changqing Mountain, nor would it have left Liu Xuanfeng’s side.
As long as it stayed by Liu Xuanfeng’s side, it believed Li Chang’an wouldn’t dare to make a move.
After all, Liu Xuanfeng’s father was the Saint Child of the Purple Mist Sect.
The Ink-Scaled Earth Dragon roared, "Li Chang’an, you’re so audacious! Aren’t you afraid of retaliation from the Purple Mist Sect?"
Li Chang’an said coolly, "The Purple Mist Sect wouldn’t go to war over a mere beast like you."
"You..."
Fury filled the Ink-Scaled Earth Dragon’s face as it was about to use its Demonic Power.
But in the next instant, the Beast Taming Wheel jolted. Golden light flared, crushing it with unbearable pain and making it scream again and again.
"Stop! Stop! I’ll cooperate!"
The Ink-Scaled Earth Dragon endured the intense pain and shouted hastily.
"Li Chang’an, whatever you want to ask, just ask it!"
"I don’t feel like asking anymore."
"You... AGH..."
The Ink-Scaled Earth Dragon shrieked endlessly. It was tortured until it was covered in blood, its skin split and flesh torn open, as if its entire body was being sliced apart inch by inch.
It couldn’t help but regret talking back to Li Chang’an. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be suffering such agony.
The torture finally ended after a full quarter of an hour.
By now, the Ink-Scaled Earth Dragon was on the brink of death.
It didn’t dare to resist any longer. It said weakly, "El... Elder Li, I will cooperate. I’ll answer anything you ask."
"Good. Your attitude is acceptable."
Li Chang’an nodded slightly and landed in front of the Earth Dragon.
He had already set up a Grand Array here, isolating it from the outside world.
Outsiders would be completely unable to perceive what was happening within the array.
Li Chang’an asked, "Earth Dragon, you targeted me time and again. Was it for the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Stone?"
"Yes, Elder Li. Back then, in the main hall of the Cyan Cloud Sect, I sensed the aura of the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Stone on you."
The Ink-Scaled Earth Dragon answered honestly.
The reason it could sense the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Stone’s aura was because it possessed a "Treasure Hunting" talent.
This talent made it exceptionally sensitive to the auras of all kinds of Treasures.
Li Chang’an asked again, "The Ten Thousand Demon Blood Stone has already been refined by my Spirit Beast. Even if you captured my Spirit Beast, what use would it be?"
"Elder, since I was able to smell the aura of the Ten Thousand Demon Blood Stone, it means your Spirit Beast hasn’t completely refined it yet. A significant amount of the Treasure’s power should still remain within its body, and it will slowly merge with his bloodline over time..."
