Longevity: My Talents Are a Bit Abundant-Chapter 542: Hunting the Flood Dragon in the Deep Pool

Chapter 542: Chapter 542: Hunting the Flood Dragon in the Deep Pool

Beside the Extreme Yin Cold Pond, there was a dead silence.

The three demon lords, Bone-Less, Absolute Kill, and Nether Prison, had faces as dark as water.

Looking at the bottomless pond exuding a chilling cold, their hearts were full of unwillingness and defeat.

They had exhausted all means, using the Gold-Winged Demon Swallow as bait and setting up the Blood Fiend Monster Lure Array to draw the Ice Fiend Demon Flood Dragon ashore.

Despite that, even with their combined efforts, they could not handle the Ice Fiend Demon Flood Dragon.

The Ice Fiend Demon Flood Dragon retreated to its lair, leveraging the cold pond’s geographical advantage, its ice fiend power doubled, leaving them helpless.

At this moment, Shen Xuan and Shi Ranran walked over, standing with hands behind their backs, composure undisturbed.

Beside them, Wan Meng Demon Lord was even more charming and graceful, stunningly beautiful with blatant joy.

"Fellow Daoist Profound Ice, what do you intend to do?"

Bone-Less Demon Lord was already despondent, and now his words carried a hint of anger.

Shen Xuan’s gaze swept over the three before looking at the cold pond surging with chill, and said seriously: "We agreed before. The three fellow Daoists would act first, and I would observe. Now, the three fellow Daoists have failed, and the demon flood dragon has escaped back into the pond."

"If you do not enter the pond to pursue, then it is my turn to act."

"You wish to enter the pond?"

The voice of Absolute Kill Demon Lord carried a tinge of mockery, "Fellow Daoist Profound Ice, do you know this pond is called the Extreme Yin Cold Pond, and the pond water contains the extreme yin ice fiend—it is the absolute domain of that Ice Fiend Demon Flood Dragon."

"The pond is over a thousand fathoms deep, with pressure as heavy as Mount Tai. Though you are an Ice Technique Golden Core, in this cold pond, you may not be a match for that Ice Fiend Demon Flood Dragon."

The three of them had suffered greatly while besieging the Ice Fiend Demon Flood Dragon onshore.

Though True Master Profound Ice was renowned, he was, after all, a newly promoted True Master.

They certainly did not believe Shen Xuan dared to venture deep into the Extreme Yin Cold Pond, facing the Ice Fiend Demon Flood Dragon alone at its thousand-fathom depths.

Shen Xuan smiled faintly, offering no explanation, and said to Wan Meng Demon Lord beside him: "Wan Meng, wait here for a moment, I shall return shortly."

Wan Meng Demon Lord’s eyes sparkled as she obediently said: "Fellow Daoist Shen, be careful."

Under the uncertain gaze of the three demon lords, Shen Xuan turned around and walked towards the Extreme Yin Cold Pond with a calm stride.

A layer of crystal-clear azure light enveloped his body, he stepped out silently, sinking into the ink-like, ice fiend-laden cold pond, his figure disappearing instantly.

"Did he just go down like that?"

Bone-Less Demon Lord exclaimed in disbelief, his shriveled face incredulous.

"He’s seeking his own doom!"

Absolute Kill Demon Lord was startled at first, then sneered, "A newly promoted True Master, indeed arrogant. To dare venture the Extreme Yin Cold Pond with his flesh body. No need for the Ice Fiend Demon Flood Dragon to act; just the ice fiend in the pond can gravely injure his flesh body, freeze his Divine Soul Inner Core."

Nether Prison Demon Lord’s shadow fluctuated violently, clearly shaken internally.

Silently deliberating, even he, possessing a Netherworld Ghost Body, would not dare to be so reckless as to directly enter this Extreme Yin Cold Pond.

Moreover, he would have to face that Ice Fiend Demon Flood Dragon.

The three looked at each other, all feeling that True Master Profound Ice was overly arrogant, bereft of sense.

Only Wan Meng Demon Lord, watching the pond’s surface return to tranquility, wore a slight smile.

Once Shen Lang hunts the Ice Fiend Demon Flood Dragon, how to seek benefits from him?

Originally, their agreement was for the demon core essence blood to go to Shen Xuan, with the rest to Wan Meng Demon Lord.

She needed the Ice Fiend Demon Flood Dragon meat to refine into Blood Demon Pills, to enhance the Power of the Divine Soul, suppressing the backlash of the Charm Technique.

However, this issue was solved by Shen Xuan.

Shen Xuan gifted her the White Bone Observation Internal Vision Method.

This is an authentic Buddhist internal vision divine power.

After cultivating it, Wan Meng Demon Lord found it extremely effective.

Though she had just finished the first layer, she could already forcibly suppress the backlash of the Charm Technique.

"This Shen Xuan still harbors caution towards me. I need to acquire the remaining layers of the White Bone Observation Internal Vision Method."

"Furthermore, given such a bountiful harvest, he should at least share a piece of demon soldier with me."

"Preferably two."

Wan Meng Demon Lord contemplated silently.

Upon hearing Absolute Kill Demon Lord mocking Shen Xuan, Wan Meng Demon Lord smiled faintly.

"Why rush, fellow Daoists, stay calm."

Absolute Kill Demon Lord sneered and said: "Fellow Daoist Wan Meng, could you have been bewitched by that True Master Profound Ice? You saw how fierce that Ice Fiend Demon Flood Dragon was just now..."

His words abruptly stopped.

At this moment, the entire cold pond suddenly froze.

The surging, icy fiend-filled black pond water suddenly became like a huge piece of black amber, tranquil and motionless.

"This..."

The faces of the three demon lords changed dramatically, simultaneously stepping back, their eyes filled with dread.

The subtle ice fiend in the Extreme Yin Cold Pond suddenly vanished.

Their cultivation of demon techniques made them keenly sensitive to yin cold ice fiend.

"What’s happening?"

"Someone has taken all the ice fiend from the cold pond!"

"How is that possible!"

Wan Meng Demon Lord’s smile grew even more enchanting: "His Dao name is Profound Ice. To him, mere cold pond ice fiend is nothing!"

...

Deep within the Extreme Yin Cold Pond.

Cold, dark, silent.

The cold pond ice fiend, sufficient to frostbite True Masters and demon lords, surged like tide from all directions.

Yet, Shen Xuan, amidst it, felt not the slightest discomfort; rather, a sense of being in his element, like a fish in water.

Divine Thought moved subtly.

A flow of light danced around Shen Xuan’s body, his form quietly transforming.

Soon, he had transformed into a translucent, crystalline Profound Ice Flood Dragon.

Scales and claws distinct, dragon horns prominent; the profound ice chill it emitted was older and purer than the cold pond ice fiend.

Upon his transformation into a Flood Dragon, the raging cold pond ice fiend around, like subjects before their king, all obediently streamed into his dragon body to be quickly refined and absorbed, transformed into pure Elixir Core.

"Moo!"

The Profound Ice Flood Dragon let out a satisfying dragon roar.

Within this Extreme Yin Cold Pond, Shen Xuan’s Power of Pill Essence was slowly increasing.

His dragon tail swayed, tearing through the black water like a transparent lightning, fleeing towards the pond’s depths.

The deeper he went, the purer and denser the cold pond ice fiend became.

In some places, fine black ice marrow even congealed.

Shen Xuan was not polite, swallowing it all.

After leaving, he would spend time refining it.

To him, this Extreme Yin Cold Pond was simply a paradise for cultivation.

Unfortunately, this place lay within Liang Country.

Shen Xuan could not remain here for long.

Following the aura of the Ice Venom Demon Flood Dragon, Shen Xuan found it in a huge glacier at the bottom of the pool.

At the same time, the Ice Venom Demon Flood Dragon sensed the Profound Ice Flood Dragon that Shen Xuan had transformed into.

The two Flood Dragons stared at each other.

In the eyes of the Ice Venom Demon Flood Dragon, there was a cold gaze filled with brutal intent.

Clearly, it sensed Shen Xuan’s killing intent.

"Roar!"

The Ice Venom Demon Flood Dragon let out a furious roar, spewing a stream of icy venom cold air towards the Profound Ice Flood Dragon.

It couldn’t understand why a fellow creature appeared here.

Moreover, the aura emanating from it made it shudder.

Without any nonsense, Shen Xuan summoned the Ice Soul Divine Sword.

[Ice Soul Divine Light]!

A transparent and solid glow of ice tore through the pool water, instantly striking the Ice Venom Demon Flood Dragon.

The scales on the surface of the Ice Venom Demon Flood Dragon were immediately covered in profound ice, quickly spreading over its body.

It writhed its flood dragon body, circulating demon core and magic power, activating the ice venom to resist and dissolve.

The profound ice ceased to spread.

The areas previously covered began to melt.

Shen Xuan summoned the Purple Gold True Water Seal.

[Profound Ice Dragon Shadow]!

A phantom of a divine dragon entirely condensed from pure profound ice roared out from the Purple Gold True Water Seal, carrying the suppression that freezes the divine soul, entangling the body of the Ice Venom Demon Flood Dragon.

"Crack!"

The ear-piercing sound of freezing rang out again.

The struggle of the Ice Venom Demon Flood Dragon instantly slowed down.

The previously melting profound ice was reinforced and began to spread once more.

Fear appeared in the eyes of the Ice Venom Demon Flood Dragon as it turned to flee.

However, Shen Xuan’s attacks were like a storm, with no pause at all.

This was at the bottom of a thousand-foot pool in the Extreme Yin Cold Pool.

No one was around, and Shen Xuan need not hold back.

[Immortal Ice Lotus]!

A giant phantom of an ice lotus suddenly bloomed around the Ice Venom Demon Flood Dragon.

On the nine lotus petals flowed various mysterious runes.

At this moment, the petals transformed into a sturdy ice crystal cage, wrapping around the Ice Venom Demon Flood Dragon.

No matter how the Ice Venom Demon Flood Dragon roared and collided, the ice lotus cage remained unmoved, while the Dao Rhyme of the lotus petals circulated, continuously absorbing the ice venom from the pool, consolidating the ice lotus phantom into reality.

"Seal!"

Shen Xuan coldly snorted.

The ice lotus cage began to close and contract.

The Ice Venom Demon Flood Dragon let out a cry of despair within.

Under the suppression of the [Immortal Ice Lotus], it lost its power to resist.

The original ice spiritual power emanating from [Profound Ice Dragon Shadow] and [Ice Soul Divine Light] began to show its might.

In more than ten breaths.

The Ice Venom Demon Flood Dragon completely fell silent, transformed into an ice sculpture, encased within the ice lotus.

Shen Xuan reverted to human form, forming a spell with his hand, shrinking the ice lotus that sealed the Ice Venom Demon Flood Dragon until it was fist-sized, then storing it in a specially made jade box.

Afterwards, his divine sense scanned the demon flood dragon’s lair.

Inside lay scattered many Extreme Yin Ice Marrows, Profound Venom Cold Iron, and seven or eight stalks of Nether Ice Grass and Ice Spirit Flowers which absorbed the ice venom to grow, all precious ice attribute spiritual objects.

Unceremoniously, Shen Xuan waved his hand, putting them all into the storage pouch.

The Nether Ice Grass and Ice Spirit Flowers were collected one by one and placed into specially made jade boxes.

These can be transplanted to the Spirit Plant Garden on Starlight Island.

Each stalk can grow into an ice attribute Core Formation Spiritual Object.

After taking care of everything, he moved again, transforming back into the Profound Ice Flood Dragon, speeding towards the surface of the pool.

"Splash!"

The Extreme Yin Cold Pool erupted in mighty waves.

The twenty-foot-long Profound Ice Divine Dragon proudly stood above the cold pool, with its dragon eyes wide open, emanating an ancient, majestic Divine Dragon’s Suppression.

On the edge of the Extreme Yin Cold Pool, the Bone-Free Demon Sovereign, Ultimate Venom Demon Sovereign, and Nether Prison Demon Sovereign were on high alert, each summoning demon soldiers and cautiously gazing at the Profound Ice Flood Dragon.

On their faces was undisguisable shock.

"Three Fellow Daoists, there’s no need to be nervous. This is the Flood Dragon incarnation of True Master Profound Ice."

Beside them, Wan Meng Demon Sovereign said with a charming smile.

She guessed Shen Xuan’s intention.

Revealing the Flood Dragon incarnation to prevent the three Demon Sovereigns from acting rashly.

It’s not that Shen Xuan feared them.

But being in the territory of Liang Country, within the Demon Sect’s sphere of influence.

Shen Xuan would rather not engage in unnecessary conflict and tangle with the Liang Country Demon Sect.

After all, his purpose this trip was merely to hunt the Ice Venom Demon Flood Dragon.

It’s unnecessary to create more trouble.

The assets of the Demon Sovereigns were not worth causing karmic entanglement.

Seeing the Bone-Free Demon Sovereign and the other two were intimidated.

Only then did Shen Xuan let out a long howl.

With a twist of his body.

Restored to human form.

Wan Meng Demon Sovereign sweetly asked, "Fellow Daoist Shen, is everything done?"

Shen Xuan calmly scanned the three Demon Sovereigns, then said lightly, "Things here are done, Shen bids farewell."

"Three Fellow Daoists, until we meet again!"

After speaking, he summoned the Silver-Horned Celestial Horse.

He and Wan Meng Demon Sovereign mounted the Silver-Horned Celestial Horse, spreading its wings and flying away, soon disappearing into the depths of the sky.

The Bone-Free Demon Sovereign, Ultimate Venom Demon Sovereign, and Nether Prison Demon Sovereign all looked at each other.

Each felt powerless.

After a while.

Only then did the Bone-Free Demon Sovereign sigh and say, "The three of us are like frogs at the bottom of a well. Meeting True Master Profound Ice today is our fortune, and made us realize the vastness of the world. It’s best we return to the mountain and cultivate diligently!"
