My low-key cultivation of immortality was discovered by the emperor in my diary.

Chapter 323 Five-Element Flood Dragon, Natal Magic Treasure

Chu Lengyu decided to take the initiative and deal with the threat posed by Old Demon Huang.

Since the last battle, she had deliberately let him roam free for a long time, wanting to see if the parasites had any other tricks up their sleeves.

But Old Demon Huang was indeed very cautious, never leaving his hiding place even for a moment. Even when mortals occasionally passed by, he never made any rash moves.

Chu Lengyu knew that this person was sinister and ruthless, with endless tricks up his sleeve, and he moved freely in the mortal world. In terms of threat, he was actually even greater than Ji Ying.

Killing it would be no easy task, and even if one succeeded, it would be uncertain whether one could successfully obtain its soul pearl.

In short, we should still give it a try.

However, when she concealed herself and arrived at the place where Huang Laomo was hiding, she found that there was no one there.

Chu Lengyu frowned slightly and immediately used her divine sense to search for Huang Laomo's traces in the mountains and forests.

A moment later, her eyes flickered, as if a flash of inspiration had appeared.

It turned out that the puppets she had placed around Fog Mountain had sent a secret message: Old Demon Huang had returned to Fog Mountain without a sound!

Inside the collapsed cave at the foot of Wushan Mountain.

The underground was dark and deep. At this moment, Huang Laomo's nascent soul stood suspended in the air, surrounded by faint fluctuations of spiritual energy.

He remained silent, intently examining the strange barrier before him, constructed of white crystals, attempting to uncover its hidden secrets.

The crystals that they had wantonly destroyed and dug away seemed to have come to life, quietly "reborn" and returned to their original state.

These crystals shone brightly, just like a vein of pure spirit stone, gleaming brilliantly.

He looked at everything before him, a thoughtful expression on his face.

He was extremely curious about the white crystals beneath the misty mountain. To him, these crystals were not just an unknown secret, but also the key to his turnaround.

That's why he risked everything and stepped into this perilous place again, hoping to unlock the secrets of the crystal.

He flicked his fingers, and spells landed on the crystal barrier.

After a crisp sound, the crystal barrier cracked open, revealing a passage leading inside. Around the passage, a faint green light appeared and disappeared, making it seem mysterious and unpredictable.

"An array?" Old Demon Huang's eyes sharpened, and he muttered to himself, his tone tinged with surprise.

The existence of the formation means that this place is no ordinary place.

Since he had already taken the risk to come here, he was naturally not afraid to take even more risks. He immediately and without hesitation sent out a puppet at the Golden Core stage as a vanguard to test the waters.

The puppet swung its fist like the wind, smashing it fiercely towards the last thin layer of white crystal.

In an instant, the cyan array barrier suddenly lit up, radiating light. The puppet was blasted away by a powerful force and crashed heavily to the ground, unable to move again.

Old Demon Huang instantly memorized the lit-up patterns, somewhat surprised.

He stroked his chin, lost in thought: "These patterns must originate from some kind of ancient formation. I misjudged before, thinking this place was an ice or fire attribute land. I didn't expect it to be mainly wood attribute."

Just as he was pondering, the damaged crystal barriers began to slowly repair themselves, as if they had the ability to self-repair, and gradually "grew" outwards, attempting to reseal the passage that Huang Laomo had just opened up.

The place grew increasingly strange, yet it also drew him in more and more, and he vowed to find out the truth.

A flash of light appeared on the ground, and several more puppets were released by him, attacking the crystal barrier in front of him.

At this moment, Chu Lengyu had already arrived at Wushan.

Like a ray of moonlight, she moved through the mountains and forests, quickly catching sight of Old Demon Huang's presence and movements.

Chu Lengyu was equally curious about the secrets hidden beneath the misty mountain, but she knew that with her current strength, she was not yet capable of exploring them.

Seeing Huang Laomo recklessly destroying the white crystal and constantly activating the underground formation, Chu Lengyu could not tolerate it.

Such actions could lead to unpredictable consequences and pose a huge threat to the entire Great Xia world.

Without hesitation, she drew her sword, its light flashing like a dragon, aiming straight for Huang Laomo's vitals.

Huang Laomo quickly turned around, holding a small banner embroidered with a five-colored dragon.

The banner billowed in the wind, instantly releasing four dragons representing metal, wood, water, and fire, which fiercely met Chu Lengyu's sword light.

The golden dragon opened its mouth and swallowed the sword light easily into its belly. Together with the other four dragons, it stared at her with an almost provocative attitude.

Chu Lengyu immediately understood that this Five Elements Flood Dragon Banner must be Huang Laomo's natal magic weapon, and its power was extraordinary.

Recalling how Huang Laomo had preferred to abandon his physical body rather than use this banner, Chu Lengyu couldn't help but secretly speculate that this magic weapon might have some kind of limitation or cost.

A deep incantation came from Huang Laomo's mouth, and the banner shone with four colors. The four dragons were empowered, their bodies instantly swelled, and their aura rose to its peak. They circled and launched a fierce attack on Chu Lengyu.

Each of them possessed the strength of a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, and the pressure was overwhelming.

Suddenly, the underground space was filled with brilliant light.

Knowing that Chu Lengyu was difficult to deal with, Huang Laomo was even more determined. He spat out a mouthful of Nascent Soul essence, and the Nascent Soul immediately showed signs of weakness.

However, the banner was radiating a bright yellow light.

Nourished by the essence of the Nascent Soul, the last earth dragon suddenly burst forth, its body rapidly expanding, its fangs bared, ferocious and terrifying. Its power faintly resembled that of a Nascent Soul cultivator, far surpassing the other four dragons.

Upon seeing this, Chu Lengyu immediately understood why Old Demon Huang hadn't used his natal magic weapon before. It turned out that the weapon was at a critical stage of its advancement, and forcibly using it now would not only interrupt its transformation and advancement but also diminish its potential.

However, she could also tell from the Five Elements Dragon Banner that Old Demon Huang had great ambitions.

As the foundation of heaven and earth, the Five Elements are the most valuable spiritual materials in the cultivation world that are related to the Five Elements.

The Five Elements Magic Treasures are incredibly powerful and awe-inspiring, but refining them is extremely difficult and requires a great deal of time and resources.

Recalling her past encounters with Huang Laomo, Chu Lengyu suddenly realized the truth.

No wonder he always relied on talismans, puppets, and demonic insects when fighting against himself, but rarely used magical treasures.

It seems that he has probably devoted all his spirit stones and energy to purchasing the Five Elements Spiritual Objects and cultivating the Five Elements Flood Dragon, leaving him with no energy to purchase other magical treasures.

Even if it changes its host later, this treasure of the Five Elements is not picky about its host and can be used by anyone, which shows its great care.

Chu Lengyu looked at the five elemental dragons tumbling in the air and couldn't help but shake her head slightly.

In her view, although Huang Laomo had cultivated such a powerful Five Elements Treasure, his obsession had also put him in a dangerous situation.

Although Huang Laomo had many tricks up his sleeve, in Chu Lengyu's eyes, he was just putting on a brave front.

He has spent so much energy and time; if he were to perish halfway through, wouldn't this Five Elements Dragon Banner have been a waste of time and effort, benefiting someone else?

Moreover, the five elements required to feed this banner are far beyond the reach of ordinary cultivators.

We can barely collect items at the fourth and fifth tiers, but what about after advancing to the next tier?

She guessed that either Huang Laomo was confident that he could collect enough Five Elements spiritual objects, or he had an urgent reason to cultivate Five Elements magic treasures.

Thinking of this, Chu Lengyu narrowed her eyes, vaguely feeling that this person might be hiding some great opportunity.

But then she thought, with the system around, does she lack opportunities?

That immediately dampened their enthusiasm.
