The Lord of Void and Real

Chapter 126: 125: Summoned Again

Chapter 126: Chapter 125: Summoned Again

Bai Xiaotian was still sitting with his eyes closed within the Array, his hands forming endless seals, unaware of when he would finish.

Shen Luo didn’t disturb him, instead casting his gaze around, pondering in his heart how to deal with Gu Hualing afterward.

After these past few days of pursuit, he had gained a considerable understanding of Gu Hualing’s strength.

This woman’s cultivation had certainly reached the Grain Avoidance Stage. She was versed in many bizarre demonic arts and possessed the genuine magical instrument of the Three-pointed Claw Thorn. Her strength far surpassed his or Bai Xiaotian’s, so naturally, he did not think that these few talismans would be of much use.

Although Bai Xiaotian likely had some hidden skills, he couldn’t pin all his hopes on Bai Xiaotian anyway.

“The mystic arts I currently understand, apart from the Water-Stepping Art, are the Technique of Taming Beasts and Summoning Spirits, it’s too few…hm, the Technique of Taming Beasts and Summoning Spirits…” Shen Luo sighed inwardly, though his eyes suddenly shifted.

“Since there is still time now, why don’t I try out the Technique of Taming Beasts and Summoning Spirits again? If I can tame one or two more members of the Aquatic Clan, it could somehow increase my chances of victory.”

With his mind made up, he stood up and went to the lakeside, first casting a magic spell to summon Little Gui.

Speaking of this big, silly sea turtle, despite its average strength, it had a tough hide and strong healing ability. In the past few days, the previously sustained injuries had almost entirely healed.

Shen Luo instructed Little Gui to keep watch around him, then stepped into the lake water one step at a time until the water was past his knees. His hands formed a seal, then he began to activate the Technique of Taming Beasts and Summoning Spirits.

Soon his vision blacked out, and he entered the space of Divine Sense.

Ever since he successfully communicated with Conehead in Dreamland, he felt more proficient and smooth in activating this technique in reality, which was one of the reasons he dared to try communicating with spirits at this time.

“Ding dong”.

Countless blue light spots emerged and floated around him.

Shen Luo swept his gaze around, hummed slightly, and chose a large nearby blue light spot. His Divine Sense cautiously spread towards it, and instantly, his view changed to a broad blue space. Not smaller than the blue space he entered in Dreamland.

Innumerable wave-like blue lights undulated around him, forming a boundlessly extensive blue sea. A wave of formidable Aquatic Clan Demon Qi was hidden within it, no less than the blue sea in Dreamland.

“Could this place… really be the Water Area from Dreamland?” Shen Luo guessed silently. He then extended his Divine Sense, carefully avoiding the stronger Aquatic Clan demons, in search of an appropriate spirit beast.

Soon, he had locked onto a target. Its strength was slightly stronger than his current cultivation, probably at the Mid-Stage of Qi Refining.

He didn’t dare to challenge too powerful of an Aquatic Clan member. Even this one was a bit of a risk.

Shen Luo infused his Divine Sense into it in an attempt to communicate, but he was immediately greeted with a roar of anger, no words, indicating it was an Aquatic Clan member like Little Gui that had not yet opened its Spiritual Wisdom.

Although it couldn’t communicate verbally, its refusal to become his spirit beast was evident.

Shen Luo didn’t mind, silently using the intimidating method from the Technique of Taming Beasts and Summoning Spirits. Countless black runes spread towards the demon.

As he activated this domestication method, although it wasn’t as seamless as in Dreamland, he had reached a proficient level.

The opposing demon roared continuously in defiance, but the force resisting him was far inferior compared to Conehead, and it was aggressively using its energy, not considering the problem of endurance at all.

The two sides dueled for not very long when the demon started frantically trying to escape, it seemed to think it could shake off the Technique of Taming Beasts and Summoning Spirits by doing so.

Shen Luo was not alarmed but pleased, this Technique of taming beasts and summoning spirits was quite refined, having nearly the entire Water Area within his perception range, how could he let the demon escape easily?

Moreover, the rapid escape of the demon has consumed a lot, which only accelerated its own downfall.

Indeed, after the time it takes to eat a meal, the roar of the demon turned into a scream.

After a while, the desire for surrender emanated from it.

Shen Luo quickly operated the beast taming technique, condensing a spiritual communication seal, immersed into the demon’s body, then stop the technique, his sight flickered, and he returned to the lake.

He sensed the Mana within his body. He had used only less than half, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

With his current cultivation, he was able to easily subdue a demon at the Mid-Stage of Qi Refining, which was somewhat unexpected to himself.

Of course, the more important reason should be that he had cultivated the Nameless Cultivation Technique to the third level in Dreamland, and gained a higher level of comprehension. Paired with the past experience of taming Conehead, he was now able to succeed in reality.

He quietly made a determination, that whenever he gets a chance to enter Dreamland again, he should practice more on the Nameless Cultivation Technique and spells like the Art of Spirit Communication there, perhaps it might be more effective when he returns to reality. After all, his aptitude in reality is too poor; merely groping on his own would hardly make progress.

Shen Luo immediately discarded these mixed thoughts, closed his eyes and adjusted his breath for a moment. After his mana recovered, he extended his hand into the lake water and silently operated the summoning technique.

Soon, the lake water in front of him began to vibrate, forming a water vortex that continued to spin around his palm. A black water hole appeared in the middle.

“Open!”

Shen Luo let out a low shout, the vortex suspended in the air and grew a circle larger. A gray-white demon Qi oozed out, then a gigantic greyish-white python about four to five lengths long slid out from the water hole.

The python had a flattened head and a sturdy body as large as a water bucket, covered with gray-white scales as big as a bowl, emitting a faint metallic lustre, seemingly very hard. The only peculiar thing was the fish-fin humps on its back.

At this moment, Little Gui was on guard in the nearby lake. Seeing the grey python appear, it showed a frightened look, quickly shrank its head and limbs, leaving only a huge turtle shell on the lake surface.

The grey-white python looked towards Shen Luo as soon as it came out, its narrow eyes gleaming with ferocity, obviously unwilling to submit.

Shen Luo snorted, did not appease it first like he did with Conehead, but directly clutched his hand and operated the Technique of taming beasts and summoning spirits.

Under the influence of the spiritual communication seal, the eyes of the grey-white python showed a hint of pain, and it kept hissing, its huge body convulsed violently in the lake, causing water splashes all about. The lashing of its tail on the water surface produced rumbling sounds like thunder.

Shen Luo glanced at Bai Xiaotian. Seeing that he was still sitting with his eyes closed, undisturbed by the commotion here, he immediately relaxed and continued to operate the Art of Spirit Communication.

A moment later, the ferocity in the python’s eyes completely disappeared, replaced with an appeal. Only then did he stop.

The pain disappeared from the mind of the grey-white python, its eyes gazing at Shen Luo were full of fear.

“Come here.” Shen Luo beckoned.

The python hesitated for a moment, but still swam over, docilely lowered its head.

“Do you have a name?” Seeing it bow its head, Shen Luo also softened his tone and asked.

The grey-white python raised its head and looked at Shen Luo, flicking its tongue a few times, and a sense of confusion was conveyed through the spiritual communication seal, as if it didn’t understand what he meant.
