Chapter 283: Slaying the Demonic Dragon

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

An Lin and the others were disheveled as they charged out of the ancient battleground realm. There was a lingering fear in their hearts as they looked back toward the entrance of the barrier passageway.

Fortunately, the evil spirits couldn’t enter this spatial passageway. They all breathed a sigh of relief.

“Mr. An Lin, are you interested in visiting the Dragon Court for a chat?” Chi Wu took a moment to compose himself before inviting An Lin sincerely.

“Mr. Chi Wu, thanks for the invitation. However, there are still some matters I need to deal with. I’ll visit another time.” An Lin wasn’t saying this out of common courtesy. Rather, he really did plan on visiting the Dragon Court soon.

Seeing An Lin’s expression, Yin Yu wanted to say something but then hesitated. This male is a human cultivator. After dealing with his matters, he’ll probably return to the Kingdom of the Nine States. The sea of cultivators is vast and boundless. After parting here, I’m afraid we’ll never meet again.

Just as she was beginning to feel a sense of melancholy, a thought suddenly surfaced in her mind. Her beautiful eyes sparkled. “An Lin, didn’t you say that you wanted to check out the books regarding quantum theory? Come to the Dragon Court, I’ll teach you!”

An Lin paused. He had almost forgotten this.

“Sure, I’ll visit the Dragon Court after my matters are dealt with,” he chuckled and said. “It’ll take half a month at most.”

Yin Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She smiled beautifully and said, “M-hm, then I’ll be waiting for you.”

Chi Wu looked at An Lin, then looked at Yin Yu. He frowned slightly.

I was only inviting him out of courtesy. Is this guy really planning to visit the Dragon Court?

Eventually, the two groups of cultivators bade farewell to each other.

An Lin continued on his material-gathering journey.

They ventured to Frosty Ice Island and obtained the Dark Ice Crystal.

They traveled to the Hundred Tribe Land’s Soaring Snake Volcano and found the Barren Flaming Bones.

Everything went smoothly.

These materials usually grew in unique conditions and environments. As long as their environments didn’t undergo drastic changes, then they would regrow once again after being nurtured by the energy of heaven and earth for ten thousand years.

The last item they needed to gather was the Divine White Herb. This herb grew on a small island which was shrouded in white mist.

“That place seems fairly dangerous. There’s even a Holy Demon there. That’s a supremely powerful being who rules over a large section of the demonic sea realm! Back then, Shen Yin almost died there even though she was a cultivator of the Half-Step Return to Void Stage. In the end, she only managed to seal away that Holy Demon after activating countless mystic techniques and using innumerable formation disks…” An Lin spoke solemnly as he gazed at the last item on his list.

The place where they were headed to was located within the Seven Demons Realm. It was a small island with soil that radiated a purple glow.

“It’s going to be fine. That Holy Demon hasn’t shown any sign of activity for almost ten thousand years. Even though that island is a bit unique, we’ll be able to escape even if the emperor-level sea monsters of the Seven Demons Realm all gather there, woof!” Da Bai was much more relaxed and carefree.

Strictly speaking, the strength of their team meant that they were already unafraid of powerful beings of the Soul Formation Stage.

Even if they couldn’t defeat these beings, they could defend themselves with no problems.

“Okay, let’s head off then. Venerate Demon Island, here we come!” An Lin finally came to a decision. He raised his head and gazed toward the distant sea.

Venerate Demon Island was located within the mist-shrouded region of the Seven Demons Realm. It was mysterious and unpredictable, and ordinary people didn’t even know of its existence.

They also only learned of this island through the scenes shown to them by Shen Yin. Even so, the coordinates that they knew were fuzzy and imprecise. They needed to search slowly in order to find the precise location of this island.

An Lin and the others went to a seaside city of the Pearl Kingdom and purchased a Three Gods Indicator.

This indicator was very accurate, and it could also ignore the effects of magnetic fields and other energy fields. They specially bought it to ensure that they didn’t get lost in the thick mist.

Just as they were about to set off, a large black figure suddenly flew over from the distance.

“Huh? Why does this aura feel a bit familiar?” An Lin furrowed his brows.

“The Demon Emperors back at Bo Lan City also possessed similar auras…” Xiao Chou spoke slowly and there was a cold expression in his eyes.

Soon after, they could clearly see the distant creature. It was a flaming dragon which was hundreds of feet in length.

This giant dragon had three pairs of wings on its back, and it flew extremely quickly.

As it flew over the city wall, a purple bead floating in front of it suddenly released dazzling rays of light.

Boom!

The bead suddenly released an overwhelming suction force.

Regardless of whether they were soldiers or residents wandering the streets, countless pearl people of the seaside city were sucked up by an immensely powerful suction force. After being sucked up, they all flew toward that purple bead.

Instantly, the city descended into fear and chaos.

“What’s happening?”

“No! Why can’t I control my body? Save me!”

“Let me go! Don’t capture me!”

Countless pearl people screamed and wailed in terror as they flew toward the sky.

It all happened too suddenly. It was so sudden that the pearl people didn’t even have time to react, let alone resist.

After breaching the defenses of the city wall, the Flaming Demonic Dragon immediately used a magical ability and absorbed the pearl people into a storage bead.

“Hehehe… So weak…

“The other four brothers were just unfortunate. Otherwise, they would’ve been able to take down a hundred of these cities easily.”

There was a look of ridicule and mockery on the flaming dragon’s face as it circled over the city.

In a mere few seconds, it had already absorbed thousands of pearl people.

“You think that you’re very fortunate?!”

A male’s voice suddenly sounded in the distance.

The flaming dragon looked up and saw a male flying over aggressively.

“Oh? A human cultivator of the Spirit Nurturing Stage dares appear before me? Are you not afraid of dying?”

The flaming dragon opened its massive jaws and spit out blazing red flames. The flames drew out a red stream of destruction as they licked toward An Lin.

These red flames enveloped the male and his companions, yet the demonic dragon didn’t see them disintegrating into ashes.

A gigantic black brick crashed through the flames. The sword-wielding male reappeared nearby, and his speed didn’t decrease a single bit.

Upon seeing the sword-wielding male as well as the large dog and monkey, the demonic dragon’s pupils suddenly contracted.

Holy sh*t! Didn’t the human cultivator described by the demonic butterfly have a dog and monkey with him?!

Escape!

The demonic dragon didn’t hesitate at all, and it immediately put away its storage bead. Flaming cyclones burst from its three pairs of wings as it quickly turned around and fled.

Whoosh!

The demonic dragon cut through the air like a flaming meteor and it fled toward the distant sea.

This dragon was only of the Soul Formation Intermediate Stage, thus it would obviously not be so overconfident as to fight with this freak that the demonic butterfly told it about.

However, it was extremely confident in the speed of its escape.

As long as I flap my wings, enemies below the Return to Void Stage will only be able to gaze at my bum!

As the suction force of the storage bead disappeared, the thousands of pearl people suspended in the air all started falling back down toward the ground.

The pearl people started screaming in terror once again. If this continued, then what would soon unfold would be the tragic case of large and small pearls smashing into the ground!

“Big Brother An, we’ll deal with these pearl people!”

Da Bai unleashed a gust of wind which covered the entire city. This wind provided an upward lift on the pearl people.

Xiao Chou used his Cloud Riding Technique and caught the pearl people one by one.

Even though An Lin was momentarily dazed by the demonic dragon’s decisiveness in his attempt to escape, his speed didn’t decrease a single bit. Instead, he flew even faster and also released Gundam One and Gundam Two.

Wings of Wind!

First technique—Wind Sword!

An Lin used the two speed-increasing techniques, and his speed reached an explosive level.

Although Gundam One and Gundam Two were nowhere near as fast as the Flaming Demonic Dragon, they both activated all their cannons straight away. They released a barrage of attacks which were all aimed at slowing the demonic dragon down.

Spirit Snake Tracking Missile, Photovoltaic Cannon, Particle Chain…

Gundam One and Gundam Two’s attacks swarmed toward the demonic dragon.

The demonic dragon didn’t dare look down on these attacks, so it started performing evasive maneuvers in the sky.

“Boom—”

Dazzling explosions boomed through the skies.

The demonic dragon was a bit disheveled as it charged out of the raging flames. It had been momentarily hindered, but it still managed to pull away from the Gundams. “Phew… Fortunately, my skin is thick…

“Bloody hell, why are my worst fears always realized…

“The path to resurrecting His Holy Majesty is truly a bumpy and difficult one~”

Just as the demonic dragon thought that it had successfully escaped, the hairs on its neck suddenly stood on end. A black sword projection cut through its entire body.

“Pwah!”

The demonic dragon was severely wounded. It swiveled its head around and there was a look of shock and terror in its eyes as it looked toward the male standing behind him.

The eyes of this male were snowy white as he pulled out his black Evil-Slaying Sword. Then, he quickly stabbed the demonic dragon’s back a dozen or so times. Each stab blocked one of its vital energy circulating channels.

Instantly, the demonic dragon was deprived of its ability to circulate vital energy. Even its domain was shattered. Its large body crashed down toward the ground limply.

There was a look of terror on its face as it looked toward that male. There was only one thought running through its mind.

My speed is unmatched in this heaven and earth, yet a Spirit Nurturing Stage cultivator caught up to me?
