208: Buddha's bones, dragon scales, the perverted Lin Tianlong!
"Hmph, Lin Tianlong, return our tribe's Sacred Artifact!"
The High Priest had long since lost his patience; with a wave of his hand, a swarm of poisonous insects suddenly surged from his wide sleeve, rushing straight toward Lin Tianlong like a dark cloud.
"Haha, Old Poisoner, I'll help you!"
Shi Wuyou, not wanting to be outdone, threw a punch directly at the incoming golden handprint. His tyrannical physical strength erupted, instantly shattering the golden handprint!
By this time, the poisonous insects from the High Priest had already flown toward Lin Tianlong.
"Dancing Fire Serpent!"
Facing the dense swarm of poisonous insects, Lin Tianlong remained calm. He simply pinched a spell and recited an incantation, shouting in a low voice to summon a fire serpent!
The fire serpent charged into the insect cloud, and immediately, the poisonous insects began falling like rain!
"I didn't expect the Chen family to be able to find two such experts!"
After trading one move, the three did not attack again. Lin Tianlong stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the two with a mix of admiration and gravity in his eyes!
"Lin Tianlong, hand over the divine wood king cauldron, and we might leave your corpse intact today. Otherwise, I will feed you to my precious insects, making you wish for death but unable to die!"
The High Priest stepped forward, his eyes filled with hatred as he spoke. Lin Tianlong frowned slightly, as if pondering something, and then pulled a small green cauldron from his sleeve.
"Is this the trinket you want?"
"I can give it to you, but how about joining my Ming Wang Cult instead?"
Although Lin Tianlong had seized the precious cauldron, he did not know how to use it; in his hands, it was like a useless scrap. However, if he could trade it for an expert to join the cult, it would be a huge profit!
"Hehe, if you don't give it, that's fine too. I'll take it back from your corpse!"
The High Priest's eyes lit up when he saw the divine wood king cauldron, but upon hearing Lin Tianlong trying to recruit him with it, he couldn't help but sneer.
Meanwhile, Shi Wuyou walked toward Chen Changsheng and spoke first:
"Lin Tianlong, don't bother trying to recruit us. You stole the Old Poisoner's item, killed my clansmen, and yet you still want us to work for you? Keep dreaming!"
Lin Tianlong had offered goodwill time and again, only to be rejected. A fire of anger began to burn in his heart; he was no longer as calm and indifferent as before, and his words became sharp.
"Truly ungrateful! Since you refuse to accept my kindness, I will let you know that the goodwill of the Ming Wang Cult is not something you can trample upon at will!"
In his rage, Lin Tianlong pinched a spell, and strands of golden Buddha light emerged from his body. Then, he shouted in a low voice:
"Golden Lock Dragon Binding Technique!"
A golden chain formed in mid-air. It carried a mighty power of suppression, and under the shroud of boundless Buddha light, it looked incredibly sacred.
If Wusha's True Body of the Bright King represented the body-refining power of the Bright King Dragon Locking Temple, then Lin Tianlong's dragon-locking secret technique represented the origin of the temple's arts!
Capable of being mentioned in the same breath as the True Body of the Bright King, this dragon-locking secret technique was equally not to be underestimated!
"Go!"
Lin Tianlong shouted, and the golden chain, shrouded in Buddha light, flew toward the High Priest and the Grand Elder!
Seeing this, the two exchanged a glance, not daring to be careless, and immediately used their trump cards!
"Hundred Poison Blood Finger!"
The High Priest shouted, and a scarlet line of blood shot toward the golden chain.
"Earth Vein Source Flow!"
Shi Wuyou took a horse stance with his legs planted firmly on the ground. Layers of earth-yellow light enveloped his body, finally gathering on his fist as he punched toward the golden chain!
The first to strike the golden chain was Shi Wuyou's fist. This punch was no simple feat; it was a punch empowered by the Stone Clan's secret technique—Earth Vein Source Flow!
The Stone Clan's secret technique, Earth Vein Source Flow, allowed him to absorb the power of the earth as long as his feet were on the ground, strengthening his power and defense!
Shi Wuyou's punch, at the Peak of the Qi Refinement Stage, combined with the power of the earth, unleashed power that was almost above the Foundation Establishment stage.
Two mighty, righteous forces collided, instantly producing a loud boom, and shockwaves exploded in the surrounding air!
The golden chain and Shi Wuyou's iron fist were deadlocked, the situation resulting in a stalemate!
But at this moment, the High Priest's Hundred Poison Blood Finger also arrived!
The scarlet blood finger struck the golden chain. Unlike the straightforward clash of strength from Shi Wuyou, the High Priest's blood finger was even more sinister!
Full of demonic, murderous, and bloody aura, the blood-red light gradually eroded the golden chain. Originally, the suppression power of the Buddhist golden light should have been able to suppress the Hundred Poison Blood Finger!
Unfortunately, with Shi Wuyou's iron fist in front and the erosion of the Hundred Poison Blood Finger behind, the golden chain could not hold out alone!
"Crack!"
With a soft sound, under their combined attack, the golden chain finally shattered, and Lin Tianlong's attack was completely broken!
"Good! Good! Good!"
Seeing his secret technique broken, Lin Tianlong was not angry; instead, he shouted "good" three times. His eyes gleamed as he looked at Shi Wuyou and the other, smiling as he said:
"My Ming Wang Cult needs powerful Cultivators like you to be our dogs. The stronger you are, the happier I am!"
Lin Tianlong showed no signs of dejection, only joy. Clearly, his trump cards did not end there. Chen Changsheng frowned as he looked at the arrogant Lin Tianlong!
This guy was even more formidable than he had imagined; he didn't know what other trump cards he might be hiding!
Although Chen Changsheng was anxious, he still did not make a move. He knew he only had one chance!
Only when Lin Tianlong completely revealed his trump cards would his attack be foolproof!
"Today, I, Lin Tianlong, will thoroughly beat you until you kneel and beg for mercy!"
Lin Tianlong's eyes shone with a brilliant light as he looked at Shi Wuyou and the other. He laughed loudly, then pinched a spell with both hands and shouted in a low voice:
"buddha bone—Great Sun Vajra Shield!"
"Dragon Scale—Suppressing Mountain Dragon Soul Seal!"
Following Lin Tianlong's low shout, two things appeared before him.
One was a finger bone emitting golden light. The moment it appeared, the entire space was filled with a boundless aura of incense, and the murmurs of Buddhist scriptures filled the ears!
This was Lin Tianlong's first trump card—the buddha bone!
On the other side was a diamond-shaped black scale. The moment it appeared, an overbearing Dragon roar resonated through the heavens and earth. Before everyone's eyes, it was as if they saw a massive black shadow churning in the ocean, stirring up endless waves and unleashing boundless tsunamis!
This was Lin Tianlong's second trump card—the Dragon scale!
The buddha bone and the Dragon scale—the appearance of these two items was completely beyond everyone's expectations.
What is a Buddha? In the world of cultivation, the lowest level of Buddha rank—the Golden Body Arhat—corresponds to the Golden Core Stage! From this, one can see just how powerful a single buddha bone was to Chen Changsheng and the others at this moment!
As for the Dragon scale, what is a Dragon? It is the royalty among demons. Even the lowest level of Dragon—a three-clawed mixed-blood Dragon—could rival a Golden Core Cultivator, and the power of its Dragon scale was not something that those in the Qi Refinement Stage could contend with!
There was a trace of panic in everyone's eyes. They were merely in the Qi Refinement Realm; was it really necessary to bring out treasures only available at the Golden Core Stage?
This was simply cheating; who could possibly block it!
Could this Lin Tianlong be the illegitimate son of a Golden Core Cultivator? Having one Golden Core Stage treasure would be one thing, but he actually had two, and he could control them with ease despite only having Qi Refinement cultivation?
Is this even human?
