Chapter 297 - Battle of Consciousness
However, it was not as serious as the others had imagined.
It was considered a moderate burn for an ordinary person!
It was not as if Lin Xuan did not have any self-healing methods. Endless life force surged up from the ground, and a delicate balance was reached between damage and recovery.
It was fortunate that the Star Conqueror had arrived in time to deter the Art Toad and help Lin Xuan block the air attack. After that, he used the moon spear to heal Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan began to recover but there was an unexpected incident.
In addition to being extremely flammable, the oil was also an essential item for cultivating immortal techniques in Wood Mountain. Through it, one could easily sense natural energy.
The Art Toad’s preparation to use this move to kill Lin Xuan and the others had been well thought out. The oil could provide a terrifying boost to the fire escape technique and increase its power manifold. However, if such a powerful fire escape technique could not kill Lin Xuan, then the unburnt oil would play its second role — to help Lin Xuan sense the natural energy!
Once Lin Xuan could not control the natural energy that entered his body well, the massive amount of out-of-control natural energy would turn Lin Xuan into a stone toad statue, and it would also achieve its goal of killing him!
However, this was an unpredictable outcome. Maybe Lin Xuan would be talented enough to complete the cultivation of the celestial technique on his first try.
Fortunately, nothing like that happened this time. Lin Xuan did not complete his celestial cultivation, and of course, he did not turn into a stone toad statue.
This was because the oil had been absorbed by the Golden Crow!
Something unexpected had happened. The consciousness of the golden crow devil marks had awakened!
In the space of the sea of consciousness, Lin Xuan, who had a dragon head and a human body, sat upright in the center of the sea of consciousness. A terrifying three-legged golden crow slowly entered the sea of consciousness. Its brutal eyes and its body were burning with endless golden flames. Its strange three legs entered Lin Xuan’s sea of consciousness.
It was scorching hot and could not be stared at!
“You, turn into the golden crow!”
As soon as it descended, the three-legged golden crow let out a terrifying cry. Lin Xuan knew what it meant, but he could not obey!
This was a battle of destiny. Lin Xuan had originally wanted to delay this inevitability, at least until after the National High School League next year. Then, he would make a trip to Xiaojin Country and slaughter countless ghosts and gods to forge his own soul-killing skill.
Now, there were only nine levels of earth-rank soul-killing power, which was not enough for the three-legged golden crow.
Lin Xuan had already tried his best to overestimate the three-legged golden crow, but he had still underestimated its power.
Lin Xuan still had to win this battle!
With a grab of his left hand, the Wall of Sighs shield appeared in his hand, and with a squeeze of his right hand, the Dragon Sparrow’s Wound was held in his right hand.
The Wall of Sighs shone with four stars, and the earth-rank soul-killing power of the Dragon Sparrow’s Wound shone brightly, overshadowing all the light. The tri-colored lines on Lin Xuan’s dragon head flashed, and the fusion of the bloodline torch dragon and the origin divine weapon leviathan armor fused together, forming a ferocious and terrifying soul armor that covered Lin Xuan’s body.
The three-legged golden crow lowered his head and looked at the fully armed Lin Xuan. His brutal eyes were filled with ridicule. “Do you think you can resist me like this?”
It did not even inherit the memories of the three-legged golden crow, it was just a naturally born consciousness. Its power did come from the three-legged golden crow incarnated by the sun, and it could also be controlled, which was enough.
In an instant, a terrifying blazing sun was spat out from its mouth and shot toward Lin Xuan.
“Die!”
“D*mn it! ” Lin Xuan bellowed and leaped up. One should not forget that the Fire Crow Crown was still on his body, and the corresponding enhancement had not decreased. This was still a power that Lin Xuan could make use of, and this included his elemental affinity!
Lin Xuan split the endless power with one strike and swung his shield at the three-legged golden crow. However, before he could hit his opponent, its third leg extended from its abdomen and pressed hard on the shield, causing Lin Xuan to fall down at an even faster speed.
“Myriad dark spirit saint tribulation, activate!”
In his sea of consciousness, chains of hundred tribulations began to appear. Two chains caught the falling Lin Xuan, while the other chains turned into a cage that firmly trapped the three-legged golden crow.
It was not trapped for long. The three-legged golden crow continued to spit the power of the sun, and the chains showed signs of melting. This was not good.
Lin Xuan made up his mind to enter the cage and fight the three-legged golden crow in close combat!
This was the last resort, but it was also the best solution. The cage was a little sturdy, and there was adequate space to fight.
After making up his mind, Lin Xuan charged straight into the cage and ruthlessly slashed at the three-legged golden crow’s tail. The bird’s cry did not have a place of reincarnation, so it was a waste of his blade!
Although the three-legged golden crow had the origin of a heaven-rank, it had awakened in advance, and its origin power was still very weak. Now that it had been slashed by Lin Xuan, this slash had a terrifying damage bonus to the spirit body and had a continuous damage effect that could not be destroyed.
This slash was a good start, but it was also the beginning of a long process. Back then, Lin Xuan had used the mystic-rank soul-slaying power to kill an earth-rank dragon soul. It was a scattered dragon soul without the main consciousness, and it took a long time. However, this was a three-legged golden crow of heaven-rank origin with its own spiritual consciousness. It was not easy to deal with compared to a dragon soul.
…
Lin Xuan’s light cocoon had already been moved to the camp. Taixia had arranged for an overlord master to protect him. Although he did not know why the earth-rank Art Toad had launched a sneak attack on him, Lin Xuan had not died, and a second sneak attack was inevitable.
Lin Xuan’s information had already been sent from Blue Planet. Many top powerhouses at the front line had already seen his information and had heard of Lin Xuan’s name. However, they did not expect to meet him under such circumstances.
“How is he doing?”
“His body has recovered, but he hasn’t woken up yet. I think there’s a problem with his soul!
The immortal technique of Wood Mountain shouldn’t involve the soul. I’ll go find something related. Is Bright Phoenix coming?!”
