Lin Yue looked at the statue below him, his face full of confusion. Didn't they say that what was beneath the green rope was Earth Qi?
The valley was indeed filled with thick smoke and was filled with an ancient aura. However, this green statue was at least a thousand feet tall and stood guard in the valley like a warbeast. The green chains were attached to its body.
To cut off the connection between the Soul-suppressing Azure Cord and the Earth Qi, he had to pull the green rope higher. Right now, there was such a huge object below, that even Lin Yue was not completely confident that he could hold on.
"This Soul-suppressing Azure Cord is already so tyrannical, with my abilities, even if it was an empty chain, it would still be difficult to pull it out. Adding this statue, it would be almost impossible …"
Lin Yue pondered for a moment, and then used the Imperial Sword Technique to slowly descend, stopping a few meters away from the sculpture, he then circled it a few times, and muttered to himself: "If you want to pull the green rope, you must destroy it!"
A stream of light and flame rose from the point where the statue was connected to the green rope, quickly moving towards the top of the cliff.
Lin Yue made up his mind. He knew that this was the source of the Soul-suppressing Azure Cord's power, so he calmed himself down and guarded himself completely. The Genuine Essence on his body circulated, forming a powerful tide of energy.
A gigantic palm print formed from Genuine Essence had already imprinted itself onto the gigantic statue while it was whistling through the air.
"Boom!"
The sky shook and the earth shook like thunder!
However, the palm strike that weighed more than a hundred thousand jin did not crack the earth or shatter the mountains as expected. The crushed stones flew into the air and the statue's body only rose up thick dust, shaking a few times before returning to a calm state.
"Eh!? "This statue is so sturdy!?"
Lin Yue was shocked, because in his eyes, it was only a green stone statue. Other than tying the Soul-suppressing Azure Cord up, there was nothing else special about it.
After the fight, Lin Yue realized that the statue was abnormal. With his means, he could not even break a corner!
"I don't believe in evil!"
Lin Yue's temper flared and he began to fight with the statue.
"Boom boom boom!"
He willed it, and the Spiritual Bead in his Dantian started to spin quickly. The Genuine Essence s were like a monstrous wave, continuously surging into his palm.
After striking it several tens or hundreds of times, until Lin Yue was completely exhausted, his Spiritual Bead s were dim in his Dantian, and his Nascent Soul that was coiled on top of the Spiritual Bead was even weaker, Lin Yue finally stopped. He did not dare to exhaust his energy anymore, in case his Nascent Soul fell back, the result would not be worth it.
"Whooosh."
Lin Yue gasped for breath heavily, his entire body was already covered with a layer of sweat.
"Crack ~ Crack ~"
The gigantic Genuine Essence palm print disappeared and in the silence, there were a few sounds of something breaking from the ancient statue.
The originally dark green statue started to continuously fall rocks, and on the gigantic statue, hair-like cracks spread unceasingly. Soon, it became a spiderweb of cracks.
The tiny crack continued to expand. In the blink of an eye, the crack had grown to the size of a pinky. Next, the process of the statue collapsing accelerated. It went straight down from the sculpture's waist!
"Boom!"
A large area of green rocks smashed into the valley, producing a dull rumble.
Lin Yue watched this scene in pleasant surprise, thinking that his efforts were not in vain, the sculpture was still broken by him!
The smoke and dust stirred as Lin Yue flew higher to avoid the dust. After waiting for the dust to settle, he would then have to think of a way to pull the Soul-suppressing Azure Cord upwards.
"Un!? "What is that!?"
Just when Lin Yue was pleasantly surprised, his vision pierced through the dust, and he suddenly saw that after the statue crumbled, there was still something standing in midair.
Green fragments of rock were peeled off from the giant's body, revealing a creature with a body as crimson as blood. It was over three hundred feet long!
It was something similar to a python. However, there was a single horn on the top of its head. Its entire face was blurry and it looked like a human face, but also like a demon!
At this moment, that blurry face suddenly shook.
"Crack crack ~" A small sound came from its face, followed by a pair of ice-cold eyes opening.
"Ah!"
Lin Yue was shocked, he was stupefied by the scene in front of him!
It turned out that the giant statue was not a rock at all, but a living creature!
This super giant demon that was similar to a serpent had a pair of eyes the size of lanterns, and its pupils were like an abyss of darkness. Just one glance at it would cause anyone who saw it to have the urge to be drawn in!
On the cliff, on the other side of the Soul-suppressing Azure Cord, the Old White Wolf's eyes flashed, its brows knitted together, its expression extremely nervous.
It took a deep breath and muttered to itself: "That brat revived the Candle Dragon! As long as the Soul-suppressing Azure Cord is untied from the Candle Dragon's body! "Then I can escape!"
Surprisingly, this Old White Wolf had known about the situation beneath the Soul-suppressing Azure Cord a long time ago!
The reason he got Lin Yue to help out and even promised him the Great Sun Dark King's bow, was to trick Lin Yue into going down and provoking that Candle Dragon!
The Candle Dragon was a type of ancient beast! Being on the same level as the Kui Cow, Divine Turtle, and others of the world, he was born with supernatural divine power!
This lone dragon's personality was a cold and gloomy one that roamed deep within the spiritual veins. Legend has it that there were some top Candle Dragon that could control the rise and fall of the stars, the sun, and the moon!
Candle Dragon's eyes opened, and the Golden Crow soared, its radiance spreading far and wide. The Candle Dragon's eyes closed, and it began to use Stellar Transposition, its Moon Wheel floating in the sky!
In the northwest region, the position of the sunset originally belonged to a shady environment, and there was even an earth vein existing under the ice wolf's Ancestral Mountain. This Candle Dragon had occupied this area and had absorbed earth aura for more than a few years.
Several tens of thousands of years ago, the founder of the Ice Wolf Clan, with his supreme ability, tied the Soul-suppressing Azure Cord to this Candle Dragon and treated it as a guardian beast of the mountain.
How could Lin Yue have known that there would be a Candle Dragon down there? He had even naively thought that he only needed to pull the Soul-suppressing Azure Cord out of the earth's energy to exchange for a Great Sun Dark King Bow.
Now that the Candle Dragon had woken up from its slumber, it stared at Lin Yue with its pair of huge eyes, and the ancient energy immediately enveloped Lin Yue's body. Lin Yue only felt his blood solidifying and the Martial Soul extinguishing, all thoughts of resisting immediately disappearing.
The Candle Dragon's cold eyes swept across Lin Yue's body once, and slowly twisted its body, its head slowly approaching him.
It didn't matter if it moved, but the calm flow of earth energy in the valley immediately set off a ripple, and a vast energy surged in midair!
"Boom boom boom!"
Lin Yue only felt that his body was about to be crushed by the surging flow of air! That kind of wave and tide was definitely not something the current Lin Yue could resist!
Fortunately, the Candle Dragon had moved over and blocked most of the attack for him. Only then did Lin Yue feel the pressure on his body loosen and he could barely breathe.
