Chapter 480: 388 Three-Eyed Fire Toad (None Left Today)_1

Shen Long smiled and nodded, saying, "Fairy Chu, I didn’t expect to see you in the Fire Qilin Mountain Range."

"What is Taoist Friend Shen looking for in the Fire Qilin Mountain Range? Perhaps I can lend a hand."

Chu Buyu offered warmly.

"Fairy Chu, is there any special place in the Fire Qilin Mountain Range?"

Shen Long asked.

"Special place? I haven’t found any."

Chu Buyu shook her head, then something seemed to occur to her, "Right, I found the lair of a fourth-stage late-phase Three-Eyed Fire Toad. With your strength, exterminating this beast shouldn’t be a problem."

She took out a map and handed it to Shen Long, clearly detailing the lair of the Three-Eyed Fire Toad.

"Three-Eyed Fire Toad!"

Shen Long’s face lit up with joy.

The Three-Eyed Fire Toad was ranked one hundred and fifteenth on the Heaven and Earth Exotic Insect List, known for its formidable Divine Skills. The hide of a fourth-stage late-phase Three-Eyed Fire Toad could even be used to craft Spiritual Treasures.

"Yes! The Qixia Alliance offers a hefty sum for the inner core of a Three-Eyed Fire Toad. If you eliminate this beast, you can take the inner core to exchange for Cultivation Resources with the Qixia Alliance,"

Chu Buyu said.

"Thank you, Fairy Chu. How about joining forces with me to eliminate this beast?"

Shen Long asked.

"You can eliminate it on your own; you don’t need my help. I appreciate the thoughtful offer, Taoist Friend Shen, but I have urgent matters to attend to, so I won’t disturb you further. Farewell."

Chu Buyu declined and turned into a beam of Escape Light, leaving the area.

"Three-Eyed Fire Toad!"

With a light pat on the Fire Qilin Beast, it let out a low roar and flew towards the northwest at a swift pace.

An hour later, the Hundred Eyes Cicada emitted a joyful chirping. The Fire Qilin Beast stopped, and not far ahead there was a giant valley filled with a mass of red mist, obscuring the view inside.

The Hundred Eyes Cicada’s eyes shone a blinding golden light, allowing Shen Long to clearly see inside the valley. There was a massive cavern, within which the Three-Eyed Fire Toad resided.

With a thought, Shen Long’s back lit up with a red light, and his Windfire Wings appeared with a gentle flap. He turned into a crimson beam of light and disappeared.

Inside a dry and sweltering cavern, to the lower left-hand side grew several dozen golden Lingzhi mushrooms. A massive red toad was squatting to one side, its head bearing three eyes and its body marked with flame-like patterns.

A red light appeared in midair, and Shen Long materialized.

He raised his right hand and a banner shimmering with red light flew out, transforming into a huge red light barrier that covered the several dozen golden Lingzhi mushrooms.

The Three-Eyed Fire Toad emitted an extremely unpleasant croak, opened its huge mouth, and hurled a massive fireball at Shen Long.

With a flick of his wrist, the Ice Flood Dragon flew out from the Spirit Beast Bracelet.

With his strength, exterminating the Three-Eyed Fire Toad wasn’t difficult, but it was good to let the Ice Flood Dragon get some practice and enhance its combat experience.

The moment the Ice Flood Dragon appeared, it opened its vast mouth and expelled a giant ice blade that sliced the massive fireball in half. The ice blade continued straight for the Three-Eyed Fire Toad.

The Three-Eyed Fire Toad spat out a red sonic wave which collided with the giant ice blade, causing it to crack and shatter into pieces.

The Ice Flood Dragon roared to the sky, emitting a white sonic wave that clashed with the red sonic wave, annihilating both.

The Ice Flood Dragon blasted out a thick beam of white light which hadn’t yet reached the Three-Eyed Fire Toad when its third eye cast out a beam of red light that shattered the white light.

The Three-Eyed Fire Toad unleashed a thick red tongue from its mouth, striking the Ice Flood Dragon and producing a muffled thud.

Hundreds of giant ice blades shot forth. Just as the Three-Eyed Fire Toad was about to cast spells to defend, an odd screeching sound arose, causing it to feel dizzy and confused. Before it could react, the giant ice blades continued to hit its body in succession.

Frost formed on the surface of the Three-Eyed Fire Toad’s body, but it was otherwise unharmed.

Numerous giant ice blades stuck in the ground, and a thin layer of ice began to form on the surface.

One of the giant ice blades shone with a blinding white light as the Ice Flood Dragon materialized and appeared in front of the Three-Eyed Fire Toad.

The Three-Eyed Fire Toad belched a swath of red flames that fell upon the Ice Flood Dragon, rapidly spreading and enveloping more than half of its body.

The white light on the Ice Flood Dragon’s body intensified, quickly dissipating the flames and giving rise to a cloud of white steam.

Seizing the opportunity, the Three-Eyed Fire Toad’s body shone with red light, seemingly preparing to perform the Fire Evasion Technique.

An acute and piercing screech sounded, the red light on the Three-Eyed Fire Toad’s body dimmed, and its spellcasting was interrupted.

A huge white claw descended from the sky, landing on the Three-Eyed Fire Toad and pushing its body into the ground.

The Ice Flood Dragon spewed out a white aurora that enveloped the Three-Eyed Fire Toad, whose body rapidly froze, turning into a giant ice sculpture.

Before long, the ice sculpture rapidly melted, with numerous cracks appearing.

At that moment, an extremely grating, noisy sound erupted as a blue luminescence descended from the sky, covering the ice sculpture.

The ice sculpture shook violently as the ice rapidly melted away.

The Ice Flood Dragon spewed out a thick beam of white light, striking the ice sculpture, hastening the thickening of the ice layer.

The Nine-Headed Ghost Pigeon emanated a bright blue light, and a miniaturized Three-Eyed Fire Toad flew out from the ice sculpture, enwrapped in the blue aurora and ingested by the Nine-Headed Ghost Pigeon, swallowed down.

"Worthy of being a late-stage fourth-order Monster Beast, such a powerful Spirit Soul," the Nine-Headed Ghost Pigeon said excitedly.

The Ice Flood Dragon could exterminate the Three-Eyed Fire Toad, but its Demon Core may not remain intact; the Nine-Headed Ghost Pigeon used the Soul Hooking Forbidden Light to extract the Spirit Soul of the Three-Eyed Fire Toad, ensuring the Demon Core wouldn’t be damaged.

The Fire Qilin Beast breathed out a red flame, landing on the ice sculpture, which rapidly melted away, revealing the corpse of the Three-Eyed Fire Toad.

Shen Long stepped forward, extracted the Demon Core, placed it into a red jade box, and collected the corpse of the Three-Eyed Fire Toad.

With a gesture of his spell, the red light barrier dissipated, and he harvested all the golden Lingzhi.

The Nine-Headed Ghost Pigeon and the Ice Flood Dragon returned to the Spirit Beast Bracelet, and Shen Long walked out.

He jumped onto the back of the Fire Qilin Beast, which headed toward a red wasteland.

Shen Long planned to thoroughly explore the Fire Qilin Mountain Range, hoping to find a great opportunity.

He was well aware that the great opportunity might not be in the Fire Qilin Mountain Range and couldn’t possibly be found so swiftly; fortunately, the Monster Beast resources in the Fire Qilin Mountain Range were abundant, and as he explored, he could collect Cultivation Resources.

...

The Celestial Witch Mountain Range, Celestial Witch Hall.

A tall man in a golden robe sat in the main seat, with Wu Xian and a slender woman in a purple dress seated beside him, each bearing a different expression.

"Infighting among our own kind and even inviting the Human Cultivators to help fight against our own, aren’t you afraid of being laughed at? Let’s put an end to this matter here," the man in the golden robe commanded.

Wu Chen, at the Late Nascent Soul stage.

"Hmph, he was the one who started it," the woman in the purple dress said with a frown.

Wu Xin, at the Middle Stage of Nascent Soul.

"Would I have taken action if your descendant hadn’t killed my subordinate?" Wu Xian replied with a cold sneer.

"I have said it, take a step back each, and if anyone makes a move again, don’t blame me for enforcing the tribe rules," Wu Chen said in a chilling tone.

Hearing this, Wu Xin and Wu Xian then fell silent.

"You two may leave now! Control your people well and have the Human Cultivators leave our territory," Wu Chen instructed.

Wu Xin and Wu Xian acknowledged his order and departed.

Wu Chen sighed, pulled out a golden Messaging Plate, entered a spell, and asked, "Is there still no news of the High Priest’s whereabouts?"

"For the time being, no news," responded a respectful male voice.

"Increase the number of people searching, regardless of the cost, we must find the High Priest, whether he is alive or dead," Wu Chen ordered sternly.

"Yes, Elder Wu," the man agreed.

Wu Chen put away the Messaging Plate and mumbled to himself, "Infighting among our own kind and even inviting Human Cultivators to help fight against our own, truly a disgrace to our ancestors."
