Chapter 597 Return
He saw several other frost-scale beasts surrounding him from several directions, approaching his position step by step.
Seeing the blue light coming out of the mouths of those frost-scaled beasts, Lu Yuan knew that even if he merged into the mountain again, he would probably be blown out before he could escape.
Moreover, most of the mountain under his feet was destroyed in the previous attack, and the small half of the mountain below was also covered with cracks and holes, and it was unable to withstand much power for Lu Yuan.
In a critical situation, Lu Yuan quickly took out the high-level stem borer corpse and suddenly urged all his magic power. The strong smell of stem borer immediately swept out in all directions.
The frost-scaled beasts stopped immediately after being hit by the moth's breath. The blue light in their mouths also disappeared, and they turned around and ran back.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. But at this moment, a deafening and violent roar of a beast sounded, shaking Lu Yuan so much that his eardrums were about to burst.
Following the sound, I saw the eight-tailed frost-scaled beast with fiery red eyes, running towards Lu Yuan with all four hooves, as if it had lost its mind. The other frost-scaled beasts that had been frightened away by the smell of the borer also turned back in fear under the roar of the eight-tailed beast.
This situation made Lu Yuan secretly feel that it was not good.
He guessed that the eight-tailed frost-scaled beast might have developed intelligence, and because he released the scent of corn borer, he might have been regarded as an accomplice of the mother corn borer.
However, it was precisely because of this that the Eight-tailed Frost Scale Beast was overwhelmed by hatred and did not use the light column to attack immediately, which gave Lu Yuan a chance to escape.
Lu Yuan did not dare to hesitate and immediately merged into the small half of the mountain under his feet. He immediately activated the "mountain walking" method and ran over a hundred miles in one breath.
But for some reason, the Eight-tailed Frost Scale Beast seemed to be able to sense Lu Yuan's approximate location and was chasing him closely. Even though Lu Yuan hid in the mountains, he could still feel the vibration of the outside world caused by the Eight-tailed Frost Scale Beast's running.
Lu Yuan thought about it for a moment and quickly guessed the reason. So, he appeared on a mountain peak halfway and quickly suppressed the breath of the moth corpse as much as possible and collected it. Then, he continued to move away.
Sure enough, after a while, the vibration from the outside world became weaker and weaker, and finally slowly disappeared.
After Lu Yuan fled for more than a hundred miles in one breath, he stopped on a low hill. After a brief recovery, Lu Yuan quickly took out the remains of the gray rat that he had collected earlier and examined them.
Fortunately, a bracelet was found on one of his forearms, which contained materials for martial arts that Gray Mouse had collected throughout his life.
But to Lu Yuan's disappointment, he did not find any burning frost. There were only a few magic weapons, and their power was mediocre, which could not match the strength of a demon king. Those powerful treasures might have been consumed in the previous explosion of the scale-killing bead, otherwise the gray rat would not have only damaged its vitality.
Fortunately, as the Demon Lord, Gray Mouse has a lot of magic stones and precious materials on him.
Finally, Lu Yuan also found that the Wanfa Plate was among them. And the Wanfa Plate was indeed a replica of the Xuantian magic weapon. Although it was a little damaged, it had little impact. It only needed to be warmed up and then it could be used against the enemy.
"This can be considered as making up for the shock I suffered." Lu Yuan murmured to himself at first, and then his expression gradually became solemn.
A demon lord died just like that, and no one knows whether he left behind any soul tablet or something like that.
It was even possible that Gray Mouse's disciples were already on their way to Blue Frost City. Without a reasonable explanation, even the Ming family would be in trouble, not to mention whether he could escape the blame.
After thinking for a long time, Lu Yuan's frown suddenly relaxed. He took out the stem borer he had put away earlier and carefully released its faint breath.
About a quarter of an hour later, Lu Yuan, who was waiting, suddenly showed joy on his face, and then he used the "Mountain Walking" method to leave quickly.
Soon after, there was a loud bang, and the hill was blasted into dust by a thick blue beam of light. The red in the eyes of the huge eight-tailed frost-scaled beast had mostly faded, and after staying there for a while, it suddenly turned its head and ran after it again.
……
On the tenth day after entering the Frost Plain, at the return point agreed upon with the people from the Ming family.
When Lu Yuan arrived, the head of the Ming family had been waiting for a long time. Behind him, twenty or thirty people from the Ming family stood quietly with their hands folded, but the number of people was less than half of what it was when they set out.
In addition, not far away, there were several demons with the cultivation of god generals sitting cross-legged. Most of them were wounded, but their eyes were full of energy, and it was obvious that they had gained something from this trip to the frost plain.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan pretended to be exhausted from a distance.
"I knew that with Fellow Daoist Yuan's ability, he would be able to return safely." When the head of the Ming family saw Lu Yuan coming, he quickly stood up to greet him.
"I'm ashamed. I've had bad luck on this trip and encountered some troubles. Please allow me to recover my breath first." Lu Yuan said with a pale face. Then he closed his eyes and recovered his breath without paying attention to the head of the Ming family.
Seeing this, the head of the Ming family didn't know what to say. So he looked behind him and asked, "Sixth brother, how long is left until the agreed time?"
"There are still more than two hours left. We have gained a lot this time. I don't think it is necessary to wait any longer. Can we send a signal in advance to inform our ancestors to open the center of the formation?" A man who looked somewhat similar to the head of the Ming family quickly replied.
"Let's wait a little longer. He is the only one who has returned among the several Demon Sect monks. Even those generals have collected a lot of Burning Frost. I think as long as Wu De and his men can come back, it shouldn't be too bad." The head of the Ming family glanced at Lu Yuan, shook his head and said.
Although Lu Yuan seemed to be closing his eyes and regulating his breathing at this time, he was secretly alert to the movements around him.
He had already led the eight-tailed frost-scaled beast to a location hundreds of miles away. When the array was activated, it would surely notice something was wrong and chase after him again.
Gradually, more than an hour passed. Just when everyone was getting impatient, two beams of light suddenly came rushing over from a distance.
When the two beams of light approached, Lu Yuan quickly saw the appearance of the people in them. They were the two cultivators named Qi who had had unpleasant experiences with Wu De before.
When the escaping light disappeared, it was seen that they all had injuries and looked a little depressed.
"At least we didn't waste any time." One of them breathed a sigh of relief when he saw everyone was waiting.
"Haha, how could we abandon you two fellow Daoists if they didn't come back. Please take a rest first, and when fellow Daoist Wu comes back, you can notify our ancestor to open the center of the formation." The head of the Ming family stepped forward and said with a laugh.
