Chapter 386: Battle of Earth Lord
The soul fluctuated, and the Four Imperial Tribulations and the Nine Dragon Tribulations emerged in between. Corresponding to them were many related skills, combat techniques, and secret arts... All of which were learned in Lou Guangzhi's library during this period, including some earth-level combat techniques and secret arts.

Ten flashes of inspiration!

Sudden enlightenment!

Lu Changjing entered into enlightenment again, completely unaware of the passage of time. At the same time, the Four Imperial Tribulations and the Nine Dragon Tribulations began to merge, and absorbed the essence of many related combat skills and secrets to form a new combat skill and secret.

Originally, as he entered the realm of Xuanzun, the Four Imperial Tribulations were of less and less help to him, and he gradually showed signs of being eliminated.

This fusion seemed to give it new life so that it could continue to practice.

I don’t know how much time had passed, but the Shocking Tribulation merged into the Nine Dragons Tribulation, forming the Second Nine Dragons Tribulation.

Nine Dragon Tribulation: Shocking!
As for the first calamity of the Nine Dragons, it is naturally the Nine Dragons Tribulation: Slave Heart. It can even enslave the heart, which shows its power. It can make the enslaved person naturally develop admiration for Lu Changjing and will not betray him.

Although this sudden realization did not cause a transformation in the Nine Dragons' First Tribulation, it did increase its power significantly.

The Shocking Tribulation is the one that Lu Changjing uses the most among the Four Imperial Tribulations. It makes sense that it is now the first one to be integrated into the Nine Dragon Tribulation.

But in the final analysis, the potential of the Four Imperial Tribulations is amazing, otherwise it would be difficult to integrate into the Nine Dragon Tribulations.

When the shocking calamity was successfully integrated and transformed into the second calamity of the Nine Dragons, this sudden enlightenment also came to an end.

With the help of the Nine Dragons Tribulation, as well as the assistance of sudden enlightenment and many secret techniques of combat, the Jingmu Tribulation leaped to the level of low-level earth techniques, and directly reached the level of perfection.

Although there is a big gap between it and the First Tribulation of the Nine Dragons, but after the reconstruction, the First Tribulation of the Nine Dragons is currently only at the stage of minor success, and its power is not much stronger than the Second Tribulation of the Nine Dragons.

The original Nine Dragon Tribulation was no longer limited to slavery, but began to take other aspects into consideration.

To be precise, there was originally no such thing as the First Tribulation of the Nine Dragons, the Second Tribulation of the Nine Dragons... It was only because of the sudden enlightenment and the integration of the Four Imperial Tribulations that such a saying came into being.

As for whether there will be the third calamity of Kowloon, the fourth calamity of Kowloon, the fifth calamity of Kowloon... that depends on the situation.

Feeling the shocking calamity with a dramatic increase in power, because it was created by himself, it could almost be said to be tailor-made for Lu Changjing, and its power also exceeded that of normal low-level earth magic.

In Lu Changjing's hands, he can at least exert high-level earth skills, or even higher levels of power. This is the power of the founder.

However, the difficulty of creating new combat skills and new secret arts is astonishingly beyond the imagination of ordinary people. It is much more difficult than simply practicing a geomantic art.

If Lu Changjing had not been in a state of enlightenment, he would not have been able to understand it at all.

This sudden realization lasted for nearly an hour.

Seeing that it was getting late, Lu Changjing did not stay any longer and returned to the True Fire Hall of Guangyang Palace to continue his practice and improvement, almost forgetting the passage of time.

One Nine Yang Pill after another falls into the mouth, which can effectively improve the spirit, energy and vitality, rather than just improving one aspect. This is also the power of the mysterious elixir and the mysterious medicine.

The Nine Yang Immortal Body, the Nine Yang Horizontal Sky Sutra, the Nine Yang Visualization Method... they were running in sequence, the speed was getting faster and faster, the medicinal power absorbed was getting more and more, and the improvement was naturally getting greater and greater.

When the practice of the martial arts is finished, the next step is to practice the secret techniques of combat.

The Nine Dragons Combat Skills System after reconstruction could finally continue to improve. According to different progress, Lu Changjing began to practice the Nine Dragons Combat Skills System, trying to maintain balance as much as possible so that there would be no shortcomings and the enemy would not seize the opportunity.

When reaching the level of Xuanzun, warriors will all cultivate their spirit, energy and soul, and will not fall behind in various combat skills, secret techniques, and mysterious weapons... in order to avoid any shortcomings as much as possible.

Once there are any obvious weaknesses, the enemy is likely to seize the opportunity and take you down.

Physical defense, mysterious energy defense, mysterious soul defense, sound attack defense, inner demon defense... and so on.

With the characteristic of being immune to all evil, Lu Changjing also has ways to defend against many tricky and strange attacks, not to mention his Vajra Indestructibility, Super Recovery, Super Damage Reduction, etc.

However, not long after they started practicing, they received news that the Super Sealing Heaven Cold Prison had shrunk a bit and would no longer expand.

Lu Changjing frowned, left Guangyang Palace, and rushed to the vicinity of the Super Sealing Cold Prison, where he found that it had indeed shrunk by dozens of kilometers. Fortunately, it had stabilized at this time and was no longer shrinking.

According to Lu Changjing's calculations, the distance between the Super Sealing Cold Prison and Chang'an Island is nearly 600,000 kilometers. Even if it wants to shrink, it will take a long time to cover Chang'an Island.

A hundred or ten years should be enough for him to cultivate to a sufficient level.

After observing for about half a month, Lu Changjing found that the Super Sealing Cold Prison did not continue to shrink, but instead expanded a little. Only then did he feel relieved and prepared to leave this place and go back to continue his practice.

"Wow..."

But before Lu Changjing had gone far, he saw a bloody beast rising into the sky and pouncing towards him.

A whale body, a dragon head, deer antlers, four claws, a snake tail... the entire body is 18,000 meters long. It exudes a faint bloody light and its eyes are full of madness.

Level 41 blood beast!
Blood dragon whale!

It is a sea beast formed by the combination of the dragon clan and the whale clan. After being polluted, it turned into a blood beast, so it was named the blood dragon whale.

The method to distinguish blood beasts and sea beasts is very simple, just look at their names. Generally, those with the word "blood" in their names are basically blood beasts, while sea beasts generally do not have the word "blood" in their names.

The cultivation level of this blood dragon whale has reached level 41, comparable to a one-star Earth Lord, and because it has the blood of the dragon clan, its strength is several levels stronger.

After a little consideration, Lu Changjing did not run away, but immediately launched a number of defenses.

"Nine Dragon Cover!"

"King Kong is indestructible!"

"Super recovery!"

"Super damage reduction!"

"Immune to all evil!"

……

At this time, the Blood Dragon Whale also pounced in front of him and slammed heavily into the Nine Dragon Cover.

"boom……"

Along with a deafening roar, the Nine Dragon Cover began to tremble violently, and a large number of cracks appeared on it, showing signs of collapse.

But it did not collapse after all. Its defense was 63 million times that of an ordinary person. Even though its power was greatly reduced when it was activated by the mysterious power, it still blocked the attack of the blood dragon whale.

"Roar……"

As if feeling humiliated, the Blood Dragon Whale roared again, blood flashed on its body, and it madly crashed into the Nine Dragon Cover that had just been restored.

"boom……"

"Kacha kacha kacha..."

……

This time the Nine Dragon Cover failed to block it and was directly blasted into pieces, then fell on Lu Changjing.

Even Lu Changjing felt his body shake and he was dizzy for a moment, then he stabilized and had no other feeling.

He quickly checked his body and found that his internal organs, head and facial features, muscles and bones were all fine...only the skin where he was hit turned a little red.

With its many characteristics and super strong defense, even a level 41 Blood Dragon Whale, which was comparable to a one-star Earth Lord, only caused this little damage to Lu Changjing.

His defense was so strong that it had indeed reached the level of an Earth Lord, even far surpassing that of an ordinary Earth Lord.

Even if the Blood Dragon Whale did not have the assistance of the Earth Weapon, the attack power of its body alone was not inferior to most ordinary Earth Weapons. As a result, it only brought this little damage to Lu Changjing, which shows Lu Changjing's defense.

“Boom boom boom… bang bang bang…”

The unconvinced blood dragon whale continued to bombard Lu Changjing, various attacks followed one after another, bumping, slapping, and blasting... The 18,000-meter-long body had turned into a weapon, constantly falling on Lu Changjing. Lu Changjing didn't even open the Nine Dragon Cover, and only relied on his own defense to resist the blood dragon whale's wave after wave of attacks.

He even used the blood dragon whale's attack to temper himself, but the effect was not great. It was obvious that the blood dragon whale's attack was still a bit weak.

Lu Changjing simply used it as a tool to test his own defense, and began to test his own defense little by little, consciously lowering the characteristics and conducting various tests.

The final conclusion is that with his current defensive power, with the support of various characteristics and combat skills, he has most likely reached the middle level of Earth Venerable or above.

In other words, without the attack power of a mid-level Earth Lord or above, there is a high probability that even his defense cannot be broken.

In terms of speed and strength, it also firmly suppressed the Blood Dragon Whale.

"boom……"

With a single punch, he collided head-on with the Blood Dragon Whale. This Blood Dragon Whale, which was comparable to a one-star Earth Lord, was actually knocked away by Lu Changjing's punch.

The power of the Blood Dragon Whale is only over 100 million kilograms. Even with the blessing of the innate secret technique, it is only a few billion kilograms.

However, Lu Changjing's strength is 63 million kilograms under normal circumstances, and after being enhanced by combat skills and secret techniques, it can reach 630 million kilograms.

He also has the magical power of increasing size, and after the blessing, it directly soared to more than 20 billion kilograms, which is dozens of times that of the blood dragon whale.

In this situation, what can the Blood Dragon Whale use to fight against Lu Changjing?

With one punch, the Blood Dragon Whale was hit so hard that it became dizzy and dazed, leaving the Blood Dragon Whale, which mainly relied on brute force, with almost no ability to fight back.

It’s a pity that I don’t have the earth weapon in my hand, otherwise it would be much easier to defeat this blood dragon whale.

Lu Changjing also deliberately tried the Soul-Picking Technique and the First Tribulation of Nine Dragons, but unfortunately, neither was successful. The blood beast's mind was in chaos, even its soul was in a chaotic state, and the enslavement technique could not work at all unless it was awake.

But even if the blood beast is captured while it is awake, once it enters a state of confusion, this enslavement will have no effect.

If you keep it with you, it may attack its owner. In this case, most people will not enslave the blood beast, but just treat it as prey.

But Lu Changjing is different. He has made some progress in purification techniques. If he can eliminate the chaotic will of the blood beast, he can obtain a loyal blood servant, which is much more reliable than enslaving demons and monsters.

After several hours, the blood dragon whale in front of him suddenly stopped attacking and looked at Lu Changjing in surprise.

He soon realized something, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he attacked Lu Changjing again.

"Dragon Roan!"

"Whale swallow!"

……

A sharp sound wave suddenly arose, sweeping over Lu Changjing. Although it was not as powerful as when there was chaos, it was much more organized.

He also swallowed Lu Changjing in one gulp, preparing to rely on the powerful corrosive power of his stomach to corrode Lu Changjing's defense and kill him.

Even when awake, the Blood Dragon Whale was unwilling to let Lu Changjing go and wanted to kill him.

"Nine Dragons Yin!"

Facing the sonic attack of the blood dragon whale, Lu Changjing showed no weakness and fought back head-on with the Nine Dragons Roar while actively diving into the blood dragon whale's mouth.

"The size is as you wish!"

The moment it entered its mouth, the magical powers of Ruyi were used, and it directly stood in the mouth of the blood dragon whale. The huge force of more than 20 billion kilograms exploded, breaking its mouth apart.

"Nine Dragon Tribulation - Shocking!"

"Soul-picking technique!"

……

The second calamity of the Nine Dragons, the Shocking Tribulation, was used, which knocked the already dizzy Blood Dragon Whale unconscious. The Soul-Picking Technique followed closely, taking away a wisp of its three souls and seven spirits.

Lu Changjing captured the Blood Dragon Whale while it was awake, and without waiting for it to react, he directly shook its soul, causing it to fall into coma.

Then he began to delete and modify his memory at an extremely fast speed. There was not much time left for Lu Changjing, so he was unwilling to waste even a moment.

It took more than half an hour, and finally they completed deleting and modifying his memory before he fell into confusion again, and then imprisoned him to prevent him from fighting and killing again due to confusion.

However, it is impossible for Lu Changjing to keep it imprisoned and unconscious forever. In that case, it would be better to kill it directly and collect the various materials on its body. This would save a lot of time and energy.

The longer the confinement time, the greater the consumption.

Therefore, Lu Changjing prepared to eliminate the chaotic will in his soul sea as soon as possible to see if he could take him down and turn him into his own servant.

After entering the deep sea, Lu Changjing found a safe place, set up a simple low-level mysterious formation, hid in it and began to operate.

"Purification!"

The purification technique, which had already achieved some success, continued to fall into the Blood Dragon Whale's soul sea. Soon, dozens of them were dropped, and the Blood Dragon Whale's chaotic will reluctantly dissipated a little bit.

Although it was a drop in the bucket compared to the huge will of chaos, it finally allowed Lu Changjing to see the possibility of reducing it. It would just take much longer than he imagined.

A smile flashed across his face. Even if it cost a little more, the return would be beyond imagination.

A slave at the level of a land monster is also an extremely powerful existence in the Wanxiang Sea. Especially as a strange blood dragon whale, as long as the object of entrustment is not destroyed, the blood dragon whale will not die. In this case, even a mid-level land lord cannot defeat it.

Lu Changjing will have an additional top-notch general under his command to help him deal with various inconvenient matters.

He continued to perform the purification technique, relying on his strong cultivation foundation, and performed it nearly ten thousand times before it was almost exhausted.

One ten-thousandth of the chaotic will in the Blood Dragon Whale's soul sea has been eliminated. At this rate, it will probably take several years, or even more, to completely eliminate it and turn it into its own slave.

Of course, if you are busy, it will take more time and it cannot be done in one day.

Unless the purification technique is further improved, or Lu Changjing's cultivation level is further improved, it can only be erased bit by bit with the passage of time.

This is because Lu Changjing's cultivation foundation is far superior to that of the same level Xuanzun. If it were someone else, it would be impossible without hundreds of years. Even so, as long as he can enslave this blood dragon whale, it will be a huge profit.

The Blood Dragon Whale was brought to the vicinity of Fenghan Island and hidden in the deep ditch of the strait, concealed by a low-level mysterious formation.

Afterwards, Lu Changjing would take time out every day to perform purification techniques on him, purifying the chaotic will in his soul sea bit by bit until it was completely eliminated.

It is best to choose the time before midnight, so that after midnight, the consumed energy can be restored, and there is no need to spend extra time and energy to restore the lost energy.

He returned to the True Fire Hall and continued his practice to improve himself. Each Nine Yang Pill fell into his mouth and turned into food for his growth.

The minimum is one a day, the maximum is three, and most of the time it is two, which means about eight hundred a year.

However, an ordinary lower-level Xuanzun only needs dozens of Nine Yang Pills a year, and they are low-level Nine Yang Pills.

Lu Changjing, on the other hand, has dozens of times more in quantity, not to mention the quality, which is a whole level lower.

Occasionally he would take some high-level Nine Yang Pills. Although the medicinal power was much stronger, Lu Changjing could still digest it easily.

His spirit and energy improved rapidly, and his combat skills, secret techniques, and secondary positions... grew steadily. He also had no difficulty in eliminating the chaotic will in the Blood Dragon Whale's soul sea.

When I was concentrating on practicing, the days passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, half a month had passed since the Changjing Festival.

An old man with a thin face and a few white hairs came across mountains and seas and appeared outside Guangyang Palace.

He did not tell anyone when he came. Looking at the Guangyang Palace in front of him which was protected by numerous formations, he smiled lightly and walked in. The surrounding formations seemed non-existent to him, and he quickly walked into the True Fire Palace.
