Within the compound five star formation, the demon skeleton was suddenly lured away by Chen Jiang, greatly reducing the pressure on Ling Xuan and the others who were almost unable to hold on any longer.
They all heaved a sigh of relief.
But then, they all looked nervously at Lu Lin's side.
Because they could also see that Chen Jiang had suddenly lured the demon skeleton away, most likely to deal with Lu Lin.
However, when they looked at Lu Lin, they saw Lu Lin suddenly appear behind Chen Jiang.
What was even stranger was that there was another Lu Lin in the talisman array behind Lu Lin!
Han Xiaomo's eyes suddenly widened.
If he was only suspicious just now, then at this moment, he could confirm that Lu Lin had indeed mastered the Cloud Dragon Shadow Technique!
Moreover, his cultivation mastery were not inferior to his at all!
At the same time, he also remembered that before he met Jiang Xing and the others, he had sensed another aura of the Pale Dragon Chant!
It seemed that this aura came from Lu Lin!
Lu Lin had actually practiced the Pale Dragon Chant and the Cloud Dragon Shadow Technique just like him!
In this way, Lu Lin and he could be considered as fellow disciples of the same sect!
However, he felt that something was wrong.
That was because his master had once told him that he was the only one who knew both the Pale Dragon Chant and the Cloud Dragon Shadow Technique!
"Could it be that the old man was lying to me before? !"
When this thought appeared in Han Xiaomo's mind, he saw that Lu Lin had already launched an attack on Chen Jiang!
Buzz
A dazzling saber light suddenly appeared!
Saber talisman technique, Spirit Severing!
Lu Lin had been preparing for this attack for a long time, and he had also used the short saber that he had obtained from Han Xiaomo!
The saber light suddenly appeared, and its power reached its strongest state!
On the other hand, Chen Jiang, who had not yet recovered from his shock, was shockingly struck in the head by Lu Lin's Saber!
A sharp pain struck!
Chen Jiang felt as if his head had been struck by lightning.
In the next moment, he fell into a coma and fell to the ground with a plop.
Because he was in a state of rapid running just a moment ago, he fell headfirst. Under the inertia, he directly slid far away on the messy ground, looking extremely miserable.
At the same time, the talisman treasure in Chen Jiang's hand also fell to the ground.
Lu Lin did not pay any attention to that thing. He only reached out his hand and grabbed Chen Jiang's clothes. He picked him up and turned around to return to the talisman array from before!
Behind them, the demon skeleton roared and dashed over. With one step, it lunged over several meters. In the blink of an eye, it had arrived at the spot where Lu Lin and Chen Jiang had just fought.
Then, it stopped.
"Huala!"
It reached out and grabbed the talisman treasure on the ground, as well as the weeds and pebbles around it.
Then, it grabbed with force!
"Crack!"
The talisman treasure instantly shattered. A strange aura seemed to spread out from it, eventually enveloping the white bones all over its body.
The demonic skeleton quickly absorbed it.
In the next moment, a faint fluorescent light appeared on its body.
Two small balls of flames appeared in its originally empty eye sockets, as if it had grown two eyes.
At this moment, it seemed to have gained some intelligence. Suddenly, it raised its eyes and looked towards Lu Lin and the others!
In the distance, Chu Qingxue was the first to notice the change in the demon skeleton.
Her expression sank slightly, as if she had thought of something.
"Jade Dragon Essence... so that's how it is!"
She had always thought that Chen Jiang did not hesitate to violate the rules of the competition, taking a huge risk to hire an assassin and incite a demonic beast riot to deal with Ling Xuan. It was a bit too much of a fuss.
She even felt that there was a hole in Chen Jiang's brain.
However, only now did she realize that Chen Jiang had other motives.
Dealing with Ling Xuan was just a matter of convenience.
What Chen Jiang really wanted to do from the beginning to the end was to draw out this demonic skeleton, then use the Jade Dragon Essence to transform it, and then refine it into a talisman treasure!
With the Jade Dragon Essence and this demonic skeleton, it could be refined into a dragon bone demonic weapon!
Such a talisman treasure was extremely rare in terms of materials, but as long as the materials were complete, refining it wouldn't be too difficult. An intermediate level talisman master would be able to complete it.
However, it had a tremendous value for growth. It could be continuously nurtured in the later stages. In the end, it might even have the chance to become a Sun rank talisman treasure!
As for a Sun rank talisman treasure, it was a treasure that would be fought over by countless people in the imperial capital!
In comparison, the so-called crime of destroying the competition and causing casualties was insignificant to Chen Jiang.
Of course, it would be quite difficult to nurture such a talisman treasure into a Sun rank treasure.
However, according to Chu Qingxue's knowledge, there was a special secret realm in Tianchuan City, where Chen Jiang's family was located.
It was suspected to be left behind by an ancient powerful being of the Dragon race!
Chu Qingxue also knew that the secret realm would become the competition venue for the talisman master competition in the Prefecture City!
"In that case, Chen Jiang is actually refining such a dragon bone demonic weapon as the key for that secret realm?"
Such a thought surfaced in Chu Qingxue's mind, but she immediately shook her head.
"No, that's not right!"
"Although this Chen Jiang is somewhat intelligent, I still feel that he's just a little smart! If he was so calculative, he wouldn't have fallen into Lu Lin's trap so easily!"
Chu Qingxue made a firm judgment, "The biggest possibility is that this Chen Jiang was actually used by someone else! It's very likely that he himself doesn't know what other uses the Dragon Bone Demonic Weapon has!"
Thinking of this, the corners of Chu Qingxue's mouth curled into a smile. "I don't know who is using Chen Jiang! However, the other party probably didn't expect that Chen Jiang would meet a fellow like Lu Lin this time!"
Her gaze once again landed on Lu Lin's side, and a hint of interest appeared on her pretty face. "So, Lu Lin actually knew about these things, and that's why he went against Chen Jiang? Or was it just a coincidence?"
She did not think too deeply into this question.
That was because she saw that Lu Lin, who was inside the talisman array, was currently rummaging through the unconscious Chen Jiang's body!
Chu Qingxue immediately guessed what he was looking for.
It must be the true control method of the talisman array that Chen Jiang had set up, as well as the remaining Jade Dragon Essence!
In other words, Lu Lin should know the true purpose of this talisman array, which was to refine this demon skeleton instead of Chen Jiang!
What Lu Lin wanted to do next was probably to refine this demon skeleton!
After discovering this, Chu Qingxue still had no intention of stopping him.
Just as she had said before, this was a competition between Lu Lin and the others. As an invigilator, she had no obligation to intervene.
Although once this demon skeleton was refined by Lu Lin, the entire Demonic Fiend Ridge would lose the source of the demonic aura in the future, and it would quickly return to normal.
However, what did this have to do with her?
She had already finished her business. It wouldn't be long before she was ready to leave Rong City!
Compared to this demon skeleton, she was more curious about Lu Lin's background and what he planned to do next.
To Chu Qingxue's surprise, Lu Lin suddenly shouted, "Vice City Lord, please show yourself."
