Volume 6: The Key to the Demonic World Chapter 14: Inner Dan is not something you can take casually
Before Gong Lili had time to guess who was the mastermind behind the thousand-year-old blood dragon, suddenly, when the Purple Cloud Beast was about to slip out of the thousand-year-old blood dragon's esophagus, he saw a red flash before his eyes, and the filthy blood in the thousand-year-old blood dragon's body was rushing towards him madly!
Fortunately, the Purple Cloud Beast was prepared. A purple light blazed out from its horns again, covering both him and Gong Lili. Just as the Purple Cloud Beast was about to leap through the bloody wall ahead, Gong Lili suddenly noticed something: "Pingping, look, what is that!"
The Purple Cloud Beast paused slightly, and then discovered that there seemed to be a faint golden glow not far ahead, and under the golden glow, there were two crystal clear balls wrapped like cicada pupae.
"That should be where the thousand-year-old blood dragon's inner elixir lies!" The Purple Cloud Beast said this, and began to slow down its pace, cautiously approaching the golden light. When it was almost there, it heard Gong Lili's cry again. The Purple Cloud Beast subconsciously asked, "Sister Lili, what's wrong?"
"Those are living things!" Ying Lili pointed at the two crystal clear balls and said in a trembling voice. She had never imagined that in the belly of this thousand-year-old blood dragon, there were other living things besides them!
"It seems that it was swallowed alive by this thousand-year-old blood dragon before!" The Purple Cloud Beast didn't care. A faint purple mist gradually spewed out of its mouth. After forming one purple defense after another around it and Gong Lili, it approached the light little by little!
At this moment, a vortex suddenly appeared in the golden light, and then, it seemed as if all the blood and essence in the thousand-year-old blood dragon's body began to gather towards the vortex. After the blink of an eye, the blood and essence gradually formed a vague beast shape!
That thing looked extremely disgusting, just like a skinned, bloody animal corpse!
"It's appeared! The Blood Spirit Beast!" The Purple Cloud Beast seemed to have expected this and was not panicked. It patiently explained to Gong Lili, "This is the guardian spirit of the Millennium Blood Dragon's inner elixir. It is formed from its essence and blood. If we want to steal its inner elixir, we must restrain this Blood Spirit Beast."
"What should we do?" Although Gong Lili knew that the Purple Cloud Beast was a ninth-level demon beast and must have some abilities, in her mind, the Purple Cloud Beast was just like her son, still a child. There was no reason for her to let her son charge into battle during a war. She thought that since they were underground now, if she used her spiritual power, she should not be able to trigger the 'Xuanmo Fuxi Formation'.
Spiritual power gradually gathered at his fingertips. At this moment, Gong Lili's eyes were burning, like a cheetah that had set its sights on its prey. It seemed that he was just waiting for the Purple Cloud Beast to tell him the weakness of the Blood Spirit Beast's body, and then he would be ready to kill it with one strike.
"It's unkillable. This Blood Spirit Beast's body is condensed from the blood essence of the Millennium Blood Dragon. As long as it's inside the Millennium Blood Dragon's body, its blood essence will continuously gather. We can't kill it completely!" The Purple Cloud Beast shook its head slightly, slowly leaning down, and the horns on its head emitted a series of purple light circles. It spoke word by word, "The only way is, while I'm distracting it, Sister Lili, you quickly go and snatch the inner elixir and swallow it. Once the inner elixir disappears, the Blood Spirit Beast's body will also disappear, and this Millennium Blood Dragon will naturally die."
At this moment, the blood spirit beast came roaring and whistling, its bloody body looking quite ferocious, and its bloody mouth seemed to want to swallow the Purple Cloud Beast and Gong Lili into its stomach, but the Purple Cloud Beast suddenly took off into the air, jumped up, and directly passed the blood spirit beast's body and came to the front of the golden light. At this time, Gong Lili could see clearly that in the middle of the golden light, there was a small red oval bead like a spider web. The thing looked crystal clear, but it seemed to be oozing with blood. The most terrifying thing was that the thing was still shaking up and down, as if its heart was beating.
Gong Lili was stunned for a moment. Then she heard the Purple Cloud Beast's anxious voice: "Sister Lili, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and take that inner elixir and swallow it!"
"Ah?! Ate its inner elixir?!" Only then did Gong Lili realize that the Purple Cloud Beast actually wanted her to swallow that thing raw. She felt nauseous for no reason. The inner elixir of the thousand-year-old snake demon had been swallowed by her Vermillion Bird's Mark before, so she had no experience in swallowing the inner elixir of a monster raw. When she heard that she was going to swallow that thing raw, she actually felt a little nauseous.
"Why else do you think I went through so much trouble to get into its belly? It and I are of the same species, and I have no interest in eating its inner core." At this time, the blood beast had turned and roared towards it again. The Purple Cloud Beast once again easily avoided the blood beast's violent attack. The horns on its head once again burned out a series of purple light circles, faintly covering the blood beast. Then it made a rare joke, although it was a very cold joke: "This thousand-year-old blood dragon has at least a thousand years of cultivation. If you swallow its inner core, it is equivalent to adding a thousand years of cultivation. That is what many people dream of."
"G, can you please not eat it..." Ying Lili always felt that asking her to swallow that thing raw was like asking her to swallow an egg raw, which was a bit too much to ask . Although she knew that this was something that others dreamed of, in her opinion, it was really disgusting.
At this time, the blood spirit beast's body turned into two, and two turned into four, and it actually produced countless clones, swallowing all the light circles that the purple cloud beast had previously emitted into its stomach. At this time, they all opened their bloody mouths and roared towards them!
"Sister Lili, Kuaiji Mountain is fraught with danger. There's more than just the Millennium Blood Dragon. I sense there are many tamed demonic beasts lurking within." The Purple Cloud Beast knew it couldn't delay the fight any longer. While the Blood Spirit Beast couldn't harm it or Gong Lili with its abilities, snatching the Inner Core would only become increasingly difficult. Fortunately, having spent so many days with Gong Lili, it naturally understood her quite well. Its words hit the nail on the head: "If you don't want to hold Brother Yi back and let him fight on his own, you'd better swallow it quickly."
Ying Lili swallowed hard, knowing she had no choice. Compared to holding Mo Yi back, this demon beast's inner core was nothing. Even if she had to eat the disgusting blood spirit beast in front of her, she could, damn, eat it with her eyes closed!
Go for it!
As the Purple Cloud Beast leaped up, its claws flying like the wind, and it waved away the whistling Blood Spirit Beast, Gong Lili leaped up and grabbed the spider-web-like thread that covered the inner elixir. At this moment, she felt a strong suction coming from the sticky thread. Oh no, the thread seemed to be alive and was devouring her spiritual power!
In a moment of desperation, Ying Lili quickly used the Lihuo. Suddenly, a cluster of Netherworld Fire shot up from his fingertips. The thin thread suddenly retracted when it touched the fire. Then, the red oval inner pill rolled into Ying Lili's hand. Ying Lili looked at it with disgust, closed his eyes, and made up his mind. He grabbed the inner pill and threw it into his mouth. With a gulp, he swallowed it hard.
Suddenly, she felt her whole body burning hot, it was so hot and unbearable, as if every pore in her body was spewing fire. If she hadn't had complete confidence in the Purple Cloud Beast, Ying Lili would have almost thought that the other party wanted to kill her.
Just as Gong Lili swallowed the thousand-year-old blood dragon's inner core, the blood spirit beasts were instantly reduced to ashes. The Purple Cloud Beast hurriedly leaped over: "Sister Lili, return the five energies to the origin, regulate your breathing and absorb the energy!"
Following the instructions of the Purple Cloud Beast, Ping Lili quickly sat down on the ground to regulate his breathing and inhale. However, the more he regulated his breathing and inhaled, the stronger the burning sensation became. The heat that came from deep in his blood was as unbearable as a thousand ants gnawing at his heart. He felt as if his whole body was burning, and the intense pain penetrated every inch of his body. Ping Lili was in so much pain that he almost fainted. His mind began to blur, and he felt a loud bang in his head, as if something had exploded violently.
"Oh no, is it possible that the inner elixir of this thousand-year-old blood dragon is too strong for you?" The Purple Cloud Beast's mumbling could be heard faintly. At this time, with the little consciousness left in Gong Lili, he wanted to curse his mother. He thought, Pingping, this is not the way to cheat my mother. Isn't it too late to tell you that there are side effects now?
At this moment, he felt his eyes suddenly light up, and a familiar voice seemed to be heard faintly. Then, Ping Lili felt his body tilt and his feet lighten, as if he was being picked up by someone: "Lili?!"
Ying Lili thought to herself, is this the pain that's killing me? She even started to hear voices.
"Lili?! What's going on?!" The auditory hallucination came again, but this time, Ping Lili heard it clearly. It was Mo Yi's voice, and she immediately felt reassured. She squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth with almost all her strength: "Pingping... let me... swallow this demon beast's... inner elixir. I... now... my whole body is burning... burning..."
"What's going on?!" Mo Yi's roar nearly ruptured Ling Lili's eardrums, but it gradually cleared her consciousness. The Purple Cloud Beast's timid voice came after a while: "I thought this thousand-year-old blood dragon's inner core was a good thing, so I let Sister Lili swallow it. I didn't expect her to have such a big reaction."
"This girl probably has an extremely cold and yin constitution, while the inner elixir of this thousand-year-old blood dragon is full of yang. The two are in conflict, so this situation happened by accident." Huai Lian, a disciple of the Wuji Immortal Palace, appeared beside Mo Yi at some point. He frowned and looked at Ping Lili in Mo Yi's arms, and lightly told him the reason why Ping Lili was in so much pain.
"What should we do then?" Mo Yi looked up at Huai Lian and asked anxiously.
But Huai Lian just shook his head and lowered his eyes.
Mo Yi's heart sank, and his expression suddenly became as cold as a thousand-year-old snow mountain. Was he going to have to watch Ping Lili die in such a heartbreaking way?
