Jiaolong nodded like he was pounding garlic, and kept nodding towards Zhang Yifeng, which made Zhang Yifeng curl his lips.
"Don't talk nonsense, where is that thing?"
"Ahem, boss, I thought it would be useless for me to hold that thing, so I hid it. I will take you to get it right now."
As Jiaolong spoke, he lowered his head and looked at the spiritual energy chain on his body.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Yifeng casually lifted the blockade of spiritual energy, allowing the loach to temporarily regain its freedom.
"My methods are not something you can resist now. I advise you to lead the way honestly. I can still spare your life."
Zhang Yifeng said to Ni Loach in a cold tone. Upon hearing this, Ni Loach immediately straightened up and assured Zhang Yifeng.
"Don't worry, boss. I know my current situation best. I will definitely not run around."
Loach also gave up the idea of escape. Its current strength is probably equivalent to that of a cultivator in the tribulation stage.
It's impossible to deal with the man in front of you. It's better to satisfy the other man's request as much as possible to avoid getting killed.
With Loach leading the way, Zhang Yifeng quickly arrived at the place where the core was hidden.
As if offering a treasure, the loach used its head to push away the mud at the bottom of the lake, revealing a crystal that glowed purple.
"Boss, this is it. Do you think I am right?"
Before Loach could finish speaking, Zhang Yifeng reached out and grabbed it in his hand.
"Don't even think about staying here. Just follow me from now on."
Zhang Yifeng also had thoughts about the loach, oh, the dragon.
Although he looks like a loach now, he is still a real dragon. As long as he recovers from his injuries, Zhang Yifeng will soon have the help of a fairyland.
Besides, this dragon is full of treasures. Its scales can be used to refine weapons, and the blood in its body can also be used to assist in refining elixirs.
I couldn't bear to kill Zhang Yifeng like this.
Jiaolong had long expected this fate, and even after being caught by Zhang Yifeng, he did not resist and obediently accepted his fate.
"Boss, that old man has arranged a trick on me. If you take me directly back to the fairy world, I'm afraid it won't be appropriate."
Jiaolong also tried to make a last ditch effort to make Zhang Yifeng give up on him.
Zhang Yifeng just smiled slightly, then called out the Demon Suppression Scroll and pointed to the empty space on it.
"Are you going to go in by yourself, or do you want me to help you go in?"
Jiaolong didn't know what this demon-sealing scroll was, but from the power of space coming from it, he also knew that it must be something that could hold living creatures.
Sighing in his heart, Jiaolong didn't know what would happen to him if he got on Zhang Yifeng's pirate ship, but it would be better than being a loach here for the rest of his life.
The loach accepted its fate and rushed into the demon-suppressing scroll in Zhang Yifeng's hand, becoming the famous monster still alive on the third scroll.
"I hope Hong Ling can see that this guy is still a loach and drink less of his blood."
After looking at the Demon Sealing Scroll, Zhang Yifeng took it back again.
After taking back the scales and blood scattered by the dragon in the lake, Zhang Yifeng quietly flew out from the bottom of the lake.
The shore was guarded by Zhishen, and those mortals also looked at Qingshan Lake on a whim. After not seeing the water monster for a long time, they each returned to their tents to start the barbecue party.
Zhang Yifeng came to Zhishen's side and quietly took out a shining purple crystal from behind.
The first time he saw this crystal, Zhishen's pupils shrank and he looked at Zhang Yifeng in disbelief.
"You actually found it. Where is the dragon?"
Zhang Yifeng really wanted to tell Zhishen the truth, but now both Zhang Yifeng and Zhishen are in a difficult situation.
Zhang Yifeng decided to wait until the time was right before telling Zhishen that the dragon was with him.
"The dragon is missing at the bottom of the lake. It must have run away."
Seeing what Zhang Yifeng said, Zhishen completely trusted Zhang Yifeng and did not doubt him at all.
"I guess that dragon was also seriously injured. He hid knowing that someone would come to chase him soon."
"In that case, let's leave here as soon as possible. As for the dragon, we can only deal with it after returning to the sect and reporting it."
Zhishen shook his head and said that he did not want to let the dragons wreak havoc in this lower world.
But the dragon was not something they could deal with. They could only return to the sect and report it to the sect leader, who would then send people to attack him.
After agreeing on a countermeasure, Zhang Yifeng glanced left and right and found a man fishing in the distance by the lake, with two fish tanks filled with water at hand.
Zhang Yifeng walked over, broke off a gold brick, and exchanged it for a fish tank.
Watching Zhang Yifeng put away the fish tank, Zhishen looked at Zhang Yifeng with some confusion.
"Why, you went to the lake and want to raise fish?"
"You don't have to worry about it, old man. It's just a young man's hobby. Let's go back to the fairyland."
Zhang Yifeng smiled lightly and handed the crystal in his hand to Zhishen.
Zhishen took the crystal and crushed it on the spot. After guiding the purple energy in the crystal into and out of the secret realm, Zhishen nodded to Zhang Yifeng.
"You can leave at any time. If there is anything you want to do, just do it quickly."
Zhang Yifeng was stunned when he heard this, and then quickly reacted.
"Misunderstanding, I don't have any thoughts about mortals. I just saw that she was destined to help me. Let's go."
Hearing this, Zhishen shrugged noncommittally, and then gathered the scattered disciples around him.
"What? Junior Brother Zhang, are you so brave!"
When Chen Chao heard that Zhang Yifeng went down to the bottom of the lake alone and found the core crystal that blocked the barrier, his eyes were full of surprise.
The other disciples breathed a long sigh of relief, and the big stone hanging in their hearts was finally relieved.
Fortunately, there is Zhang Yifeng, otherwise they might have to stay in this lower realm with thin spiritual energy forever.
"Where are those two guys? Are you ignoring them?"
Zhang Yifeng glanced at Chen Chao with a smile, turned to Zhishen and asked.
Those two guys were naturally the brothers who were sent here by Liu Changkong to target their group.
After hearing this, Zhishen was silent for a while, then said calmly: "If they are not dead yet, take them with you."
"It's hard to explain to the sect master if there is even one less person. How to deal with them is the sect master's matter. We should not overstep our authority."
The two brothers didn't go far in the woods. When they noticed that the barrier in the woods dissipated, they knew that someone had found the core crystal in the secret realm.
The two of them returned to the team with sullen faces. When they heard that Zhang Yifeng had found the crystal, a look of surprise flashed in their eyes.
This kid actually has such courage and dares to go into the lake to take out the core crystal in such a dangerous situation.
Based on this alone, the two of them are far inferior to Zhang Yifeng.
