At that location, the water mist churned and rippled, and a woman in a black dress appeared.
This woman looked to be in her thirties, with an extremely hot figure, but her face was quite ordinary, and her eyes revealed a sinister color.
Seeing this suddenly appearing woman, Zhang Ling's heart skipped a beat.
Just now, he had only scanned the surroundings with his spiritual sense, and originally found nothing unusual. But at that location, a faint trace of spiritual power fluctuation suddenly emerged. Originally, he didn't have full confidence, but he didn't expect that a loud shout would reveal that there was really a cultivator hidden there.
But this woman, he had never seen before, how would she know his surname was Zhang?
"Why, doesn't this fellow cultivator remember me?" The black-skirted woman raised a hand, and golden light flickered between her hands, as if she was about to cast some kind of spell.
Seeing the golden light in this woman's hand, Zhang Ling suddenly thought of someone and asked with a gloomy face. "You are... Madam Cao."
"Fellow cultivator indeed recognized me. It's been several years, and your cultivation has actually reached the late stage of the Golden Core. It's really fate to meet here. But..."
After the woman admitted to being Madam Cao, a murderous intent flashed across her face, and with a clap of her hands, the golden light in her hands exploded, turning into golden rain of arrows, shooting fiercely.
Zhang Ling raised an eyebrow. At the same time as this woman made her move, he naturally reacted as well. Two flying swords danced quickly in front of him, turning into two cyan sword wheels, blocking in front of him. The golden rain of arrows hit them, making a crisp clanging sound.
As soon as Madam Cao made a move, Zhang Ling discovered that this woman also had the strength of the late stage of the Golden Core. Previously, this woman, like him, was in the middle stage of the Golden Core cultivation, but unexpectedly, she also advanced.
It's just that Madam Cao is not the same as before, and the aura on her body seems to be slightly different.
But now is not the time to consider these things. Judging from this woman's posture, she obviously wants his life.
Zhang Ling no longer thought much about it, and dealt with this woman first.
While the two flying swords blocked the attack, a yellow light flashed from his sleeve, and the Yellow Luo Umbrella was sacrificed, protecting his whole body.
"Hmph, you actually have a defensive ancient treasure. I underestimated you. It seems that you were able to leave from there before, and you are not an ordinary cultivator. But today you are destined to fall here."
Madam Cao smiled sinisterly, and a bloody light flashed in her hand, and a blood-colored ancient cauldron appeared. She opened her mouth and spat out two balls of essence blood, which submerged into this treasure.
The blood-colored ancient cauldron rotated, instantly turning into a large size, and in the blood cauldron, black mist diffused, and a large mass of black blood-colored mist floated out.
Zhang Ling immediately sensed a strong bloody aura and knew that this blood cauldron was not an ordinary treasure.
He quickly waved his hand, and the Two Instruments Gourd appeared beside him, and a large amount of Celestial Star Sand swept out. Some of the quicksand formed a layer of protection, protecting himself.
Most of the Celestial Star Sand turned into sandballs the size of millstones, attacking the woman. At the same time, a flash of green light flashed on the Two Instruments Gourd, and three more flying swords flew out, joining the attack.
The sandballs all attacked the blood mist released by this woman, but there was no movement at all, as if they had lost their power.
Zhang Ling was shocked and quickly urged the Celestial Star Sand.
A sizzling sound came from the blood mist, and all the Celestial Star Sand that poured into it rushed out under his control.
It's just that the Celestial Star Sand that swept back had turned blood red, flowing slowly, and in a few breaths, it became stiff, turning into pieces of blood-red crystal blocks that were congealed together, looking like they were frozen.
The Celestial Star Sand that was recovered looked frozen.
Zhang Ling sensed that the spiritual light on this group of Celestial Star Sand had weakened by more than half, and both the flow speed and power had dropped a lot. It was as if it had been contaminated.
What was even more surprising was that the blood mist released by Madam Cao's blood cauldron was sweeping towards him, with the intention of trapping him in place.
Knowing something was wrong, Zhang Ling lightly patted his storage bag, and one round ball after another flew out. Hundreds of fist-sized round balls were all over his eyes, and red auras lit up as they collided with each other.
In the midst of the rumbling loud noises, the fire was bright, forming a large sea of fire, and the spreading blood mist collided together.
Half of the channel was brightly lit with fire, and half of the channel was flashing with blood. The collision of the two attacks sent out huge collisions, and even rolled out a series of violent strong winds.
Zhang Ling patted his chest and spat out a ball of condensed yellow Dan Fire, covering the Celestial Star Sand that had turned into blood crystal blocks.
A wisp of green smoke emerged from the Celestial Star Sand, and there was a sizzling sound. The frozen sand mass flowed again, and the blood color on it was receding.
Zhang Ling breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the power of the Celestial Star Sand was only temporarily weakened.
Madam Cao relied on the power of the blood cauldron in her hand and released a large amount of blood mist, and was about to besiege the enemy in it.
The blood cauldron is powerful, and is a treasure of Snow Moon Tower. This item was the blood cauldron found in the ice and fire mine before.
After she took it back and confirmed to hand it over to the landlord, she received a heavy reward from the landlord. Not only did she find a suitable body to seize, but she also recovered her cultivation base in a year or two. There were also the best quality pills rewarded, allowing her to quickly advance to the late stage of the Golden Core.
Although she can only exert a few percent of the power of the blood cauldron in her hand, in Madam Cao's opinion, any Golden Core cultivator is definitely not her opponent.
As long as other cultivators are trapped in it, they can be killed in an instant.
But at this moment, the fire in front of her was bright, and a burst of explosive fire spiritual power filled the passage, forming a wave of fire that reversed and dispersed part of the blood mist.
Madam Cao's face showed a stern color, she snorted lightly, clapped her hands, and several golden spiritual patterns hit the blood cauldron. The cauldron rotated quickly, and a large amount of blood mist transformed into blood-colored light blades in the shape of crescent moons. They shot straight over.
Zhang Ling had collected the Celestial Star Sand at this moment. Faced with this woman's powerful offensive, the Celestial Star Sand seemed to be restrained and could not exert much power.
It seems that substantive magic weapons will be restrained by the blood mist. Maybe spiritual power attacks will be better.
Thinking in his heart, he urged the sword formula in his hand, and a green light flashed on the Two Instruments Gourd, and several flying swords shot out from it. A full seven flying swords danced quickly in front of Zhang Ling, transforming into countless sword lights.
For a time, the cyan sword light and the blood-colored light blade collided together, making a chaotic clanging sound, and they fought evenly matched.
Madam Cao sneered, and a golden and a silver copper ring appeared in her hand with a flash of golden light.
The copper ring style is simple, and the golden and silver spiritual patterns are clearly printed on it. It seems that it is also an ancient treasure. After being stimulated, it made a buzzing sound, and quickly rotated into a golden and a silver halo, and disappeared after shaking left and right.
Zhang Ling also observed that the enemy had taken out a new treasure, and became vigilant.
