Chapter 389: Refining the Great Demon, Dragon Power Fifteen! (2-in-1)
Song Changming took out a small white bottle and carefully deposited the big demon heart core into it.
Seal the bottle cork, and runes will appear on the surface of the white bottle.
The rune is called purity, which can keep the space inside the bottle free of impurities and always remain clean.
This talisman was not of a high level, but was only a third-level talisman. Song Ping'an found it in a trading house in the main city and gave it to him after finding it useful.
On weekdays, this small white bottle basically stores some precious elixirs, but now it is just used to store this even rarer big demon heart core.
After taking another look at the mountains here and seeing no trace of other monsters, Song Changming flew away without stopping.
By the time he returned to Leicheng, the war was almost over.
Even the Kangjin Rat King chose to run away, so how could the remaining rat demons dare to stay any longer. In the end, they basically had to run away and die.
Lei City is safe and sound under the protection of the city defense formation.
"Changming, how are you?" Seeing Song Changming returning, Wang Tianshuang first breathed a sigh of relief and then asked.
Song Changming shook his head and just said that he let the golden rat king run away, but did not tell the truth.
This is mainly because the matter of killing the big demon is too big. Once it is made public, it will not bring much benefit to Song Changming, but it will cause a lot of trouble.
The most important thing is that the big demon core in his hand is hard to guarantee that it will not be coveted by outsiders.
Even if the military or even the royal palace asked him to hand over the core of the great demon, he would have to carefully consider and weigh it if he wanted to disobey.
In order to save trouble, Song Changming simply concealed this big demon core.
Wang Tianshuang didn't have too much doubt about this.
After all, even Hu Zhong failed to keep the Kangjin Rat King, allowing him to escape with his life in the end.
Now that Song Changming was chasing after him alone, it was normal for him to be unable to kill the Kangjin Rat King.
On the contrary, Wang Tianshuang felt that Song Changming's decision to pursue him rashly was too impulsive.
After all, the opponent was a big demon, and if he still had the energy to fight back, Song Changming would most likely die as a result.
"As long as everything is fine." Wang Tianshuang said without any blame.
Xia Shangzhen on the side looked regretful, shook his head, and said nothing more.
After returning to the military camp, Song Changming did not receive treatment from the doctor. He only took a few pills to recover his injuries, and then directly entered the post-war retreat mode as usual.
The beginning of reflection, review, and further refining of the flesh and blood essence accumulated in the body were all contributed by the King of Golden Rats.
This refining took a full half month, which exceeded the time of any previous post-war retreat.
It took so long that Yang Zhen, Xing Tiexin, and even Marshal Wang Tianshuang personally intervened.
Fortunately, during this half month, the 41st Army's mission of guarding Leicheng remained unchanged, and no fighting broke out.
Otherwise, it would be really difficult for Song Changming to stay in seclusion for half a month so easily during this period when the Heavenly Fiend Devours the Sun.
In the room, Song Changming was surrounded by the blood of the demon clan. From time to time, he turned into the monster of the Rat King, baring his fangs and screaming at Song Changming.
Song Changming opened his mouth and took a deep breath, and the blood energy that finally escaped was taken into his body and refined one after another.
Since then, the essence of the great demon's flesh and blood sealed in Song Changming's body has been empty, and he has completely refined it.
"It's not easy." Song Changming opened his eyes and murmured.
Refining the flesh and blood essence of the great demon is a process of absorbing great tonic substances. It is somewhat time-consuming and laborious, but in the end the result is excellent.
"No panacea, no treasure, no matter how useful it is, is not as useful as a great demon corpse!"
After Song Changming checked his status, he couldn't help but sigh.
Half a month later, his post-war injuries had long since healed, and his physical strength was significantly stronger than his previous peak.
The strength level is best evaluated. Refining the flesh and blood essence of the great demon directly increased his power by almost a dragon!
In other words, the strength of 120,000 kilograms has grown!
Currently, he already possesses thirteen dragon powers under normal conditions!
The surging power in his body made him extremely happy. In the past, when he wanted to increase the power of a dragon, it was never that easy.
It took only half a month to enhance the power of a dragon, which was absolutely unprecedented in the past.
What's more important is that he has only refined a part of the great demon's flesh and blood essence this time, and more of the great demon's flesh and blood essence is still in his Qiankun Ring and has not yet been extracted.
This is why he said that a great demon corpse is better than all kinds of miraculous medicines, heavenly materials, and earthly treasures.
To him, it was.
The corpse of a great demon was of great help to him in practicing witchcraft.
He conservatively estimated that refining all the remaining flesh and blood essence of the great demon would at least add two more dragon powers to him!
In addition, there is a great demon core that has not yet been studied.
From the perspective of outside warriors, this core of the great demon's core is the most important thing, the most valuable part after the great demon's death.
Just when Song Changming was planning to go out to extract the essence of flesh and blood and continue practicing, his training rhythm was interrupted by a mission in the military.
Half a month's rest was hard-won, but they would leave Lei City again and head to other battlefields to assist in the battle.
Now that the black light has not dissipated, no matter how anxious he is, he cannot choose to avoid the battle directly because of his cultivation.
Therefore, Song Changming's next practice is destined to be intermittent.
Yunzhou and Yuanzhou are separated by thousands of mountains and rivers.
Starting from Yunzhou, heading north, you need to cross Miaozhou, which is full of rivers, lakes and seas, then pass through Fengzhou, which is filled with wind and sand, and finally arrive at Yuanzhou, which is full of mountains and dense trees.
Not all states are directly adjacent to each other. There are still many buffer zones, deserted lands, forbidden lands, dangerous lands, and natural chasms blocking them.
Therefore, this journey is not much easier than Monk Tang's journey to the west to obtain Buddhist scriptures. It is also very time-consuming and laborious.
now.
Somewhere in Fengzhou, the sky is filled with yellow sand, and it is a desolate scene.
From a distance, you can see an oasis deep in the sand.
The oasis is not big, but it is full of life and people. Many beasts of burden carry people and goods in and out of the oasis, and walk through the wind and sand.
The sand on the ground was trampled by the pack animal team, leaving deep footprints, but they were quickly covered up by the wind and sand, leaving no traces.
Tens of kilometers away from the oasis, a figure wrapped in a windproof coat rode on a sand wolf, galloping towards the south.
The figure kept his head buried for a long time, then suddenly raised it, revealing a delicate little face under the wide hood.
She is a human girl who looks very young.
If Song Changming were here, he would be able to recognize at a glance that this woman is Su Qingqing, who has been away for many years.
I saw a map and a pointer in her hand, looking up into the distance.
A pair of originally dark eyes suddenly turned pink, looking as if they were embedded with two flawless pink diamonds.
Her vision continued to stretch, and she saw the vast bushes, lakes and wetlands behind the yellow sand.
The sudden change in the general environment meant that she was finally leaving Fengzhou.
He glanced at the black light hanging above his head again, and felt that the part of his mother's demon bloodline in his body had always been very active.
"The next step is to arrive." Su Qingqing rode on the back of the sand wolf, opened the hand-drawn map, and looked at it again and again to confirm her current position.
"It's almost time, we're not far from Yunzhou, young master!" Su Qingqing's pink eyes were extremely bright, exuding a faint and demonic brilliance.
On the other side, there is a certain world in Yuanzhou.
Several large mountains are located in a vast virgin forest, which looks a bit like Wuzhi Mountain from a distance.
The terrain here is very high, and one of the mountains reaches straight into the sky. The top of the mountain is covered with extremely thick white snow, as if wearing a white hat.
This place is Fox Mountain.
It is also very famous in the entire Yuanzhou demon world!
On the top of a lush mountain in Fox Mountain, an exclamation was heard that was extremely harsh.
"What! The lady is missing?"
"How could it be missing!"
A middle-aged man with animal ears, narrow eyes, and a yellow beard glared and shouted.
As his mood fluctuated, the demonic aura around him also began to stir.
"No, I don't know." Several demon commanders who were responsible for guarding the mountains also knew that he had left their posts without authorization, and they all looked a little flustered.
"Hurry up and find me! If there is something wrong with the young lady, we won't be able to think about it until the madam comes out!" The middle-aged man with a yellow beard continued angrily.
On weekdays, he could deal with many things calmly, but in this case, he knew that this was a taboo from the Lord.
The young lady in the family must not make any mistakes!
"Yes, yes!"
A group of demon commanders hurriedly went down the mountain. They suddenly transformed into foxes of various colors. They galloped very fast, followed ghostly movements, and disappeared into the mountains in the blink of an eye.
The frowning brow of the middle-aged man with yellow beard has not yet relaxed, and he seems to be pacing with his hands on his hands.
Suddenly he had a bad premonition in his heart.
“Did you really go to Yunzhou?”
Right now, he knew how chaotic the three human states were, where the largest human-monster war in a century was erupting.
If you go to these three states at this moment, even if you are a demon, if you don't have an organization to rely on, it will be extremely dangerous.
Not only must we be wary of strong human beings, but we must also be wary of other monsters. If we are not careful, we will never come back.
"No!" The middle-aged man became more and more frightened as he thought about it. With a movement of his body, he turned into a gust of yellow wind and disappeared into the mountains.
The fifth month of Darkness.
There are constant disasters all over Yunzhou, not only the threat from the invasion of monsters, but also many natural disasters and man-made disasters.
Food began to run out, and a large-scale famine was about to sweep across the country.
On Cuibai Road, two hundred miles away from the main city, there are towering fortresses and dense outposts, making the place airtight.
Every important road is heavily guarded, and patrol teams are strictly guarded at all levels.
This place is the first line of defense to defend the main city!
Then every fifty miles, a layer of defense lines was established, for a total of four layers of defense lines.
The reason why the main city is so tightly guarded is because a month ago, a large-scale demon invasion led by a big demon suddenly broke out in the main city.
That time, the city defense formation was almost broken and the entire main city was destroyed in one fell swoop!
Thanks to King Cui's timely action, the crisis was resolved.
Since then, King Cui recalled several Cui Banner troops outside and built these four lines of defense outside the city in order to ensure the absolute safety of the main city.
Inside the fortress, there are rows of quiet rooms for generals to practice.
Only one of the quiet rooms located in the corner has a rune on the thick stone door, which blocks the energy in the quiet room from leaking out.
Several deputy generals came out and saw the runes of the quiet room flashing and shimmering.
"The Song Banner Master really cultivates hard and goes into seclusion whenever he has free time."
"Yes, it's not surprising that Song Banner Master can have such great strength."
"Come on, if I had such an enviable talent as Song Banner Leader, I could work harder than him."
"As for you, no matter how good your talent is, it will be wasted."
"Don't yell here!" Several lieutenants were chatting when suddenly a quiet room door opened and Wu Feng walked out with a cold face.
"Yes, General." The expressions of several lieutenants changed, and they immediately bowed their heads in agreement and hurried into the quiet room.
Wu Feng didn't say anything more. His peripheral vision fell on the quiet room in the corner, and he had a somewhat complicated look on his face.
Back then, he and Song Changming were promoted to generals at the same time, and they had even fought against each other in a military competition earlier.
At that time, Song Changming was far less powerful than he is now, and that fight was just about evenly matched with him.
But now, Song Changming has become the leader of the small banner, and his strength is far beyond him. Not only can he kill the top demon generals, but he can even deal with the big demons.
Wu Feng knew very well that now he was not even qualified to be Song Changming's opponent.
He had no choice but to accept the speed at which his strength increased.
The thought of competing with Song Changming had long since disappeared.
"I really want to know how strong you can become in the future."
Wu Feng shook his head, looked away, and walked out.
In the quiet room.
Song Changming refined the last mouthful of the demon clan's flesh and blood essence, and his aura rose again.
Although the appearance has not changed much, it gives people an extremely strong sense of heaviness inexplicably.
Even if someone with keen perception observes Song Changming at this moment, he may think that he is facing a huge monster and be scared out of his wits!
Since then, Song Changming has refined all the flesh and blood essence of the big monster, the Kangjin Rat King.
For such a long time, no matter how well the corpse of the big demon is preserved, blood will inevitably be lost in the process. Song Changming has tried his best not to waste it.
Now that the refining is complete, his overall physique has been strengthened by more than one degree.
In terms of power, it has reached an astonishing fifteen levels of dragon power under normal conditions!
“The Rat King was seriously injured that day, and now I don’t know if I can handle it alone”
Song Changming felt the continuous growth of power and couldn't help but evaluate it in his heart.
After all, among the opponents he faced, the Rat King that day was the most powerful, and as a great demon, it was natural to compare him with him.
After thinking for a moment, Song Changming still shook his head.
With his current physical strength, fifteen dragon powers are indeed impressive and will greatly improve his personal strength. However, it is still too much to defeat the Kangjin Rat King who was seriously injured that day.
"However, it would be difficult to say if there is another wizard seal."
Song Changming felt a leg bone on his right leg.
The leg bones are flawless and tough, as if they were made of the strongest jade.
On it, a complicated shaman seal slowly appeared, flashing with a faint light, it was almost finished!
