C1624 Combat
It was as if a large piece of earth had been dug up from the depths of the mountain range. The whole mountain had originally looked like a volcano, but now it looked like an ordinary mountain. However, the caved in bottom of the valley was filled with mist, and the craggy and sharp rocks surrounded the crater.
Huang Ling and Xuan Hao stood at the edge of the crater, feeling the howling wind beneath them. Looking at the crags that were like they had been split by an axe, they suddenly felt the meaning of the Devil's Mountain.
Xuan Hao felt sorrow for no reason and didn't know why. However, before he could think about it further, Zhong Ming had already contacted Huang Ling and Xuan Hao through telepathy.
"Huang Ling, quickly lead Xuan Hao to retrieve the herb. Remember, you must not show your face. Once Xuan Hao starts fighting, he'll immediately come back to meet me and bring me to your place." Zhong Ming clearly conveyed his intention to Huang Ling. As for why he didn't go with the two just now, Zhong Ming didn't mention anything.
Zhong Ming had plenty of time now, so he wanted to study the flaws of the pill he just made in space. He had just opened the Pill Furnace and refined two pills. Xuan Hao didn't know what the effects of the pills were, but as a person who concocted pills, he was well aware of Zhong Ming's capabilities. Although these two pills were of good quality, the effects could last for less than half a day. In other words, if Zhong Ming had given this pellet to Xuan Hao, Xuan Hao might not be able to hold on for more than half a day, and Demonic Qi would overflow everywhere. At that time, anyone would know that he was someone from Heaven Demon Clan.
The instant Zhong Ming came over, he put the pill into Xuan Hao's mouth. Although there weren't any humans around the mountain, Zhong Ming still gave him the pill that didn't have much effect just in case.
Right now, Xuan Hao only needed to quietly enjoy the moment of clarity brought to him by the pill. Without any tacit understanding to interfere, he would be content to fight the Demonic Beast to his heart's content.
Xuan Hao himself was a giant dragon. Dragons weren't just made of greed, they were made of war as well. As a descendant of the primordial divine dragon and heavenly Demon Clan, he was naturally a violent and bloodthirsty person. Even if Zhong Ming restrained him now, he probably wouldn't be able to control his own instincts. Zhong Ming was well aware of this point. That was why he decided to let Huang Ling bring him to Xuan Hao's battlefield to prevent him from losing his rationality and becoming a devil.
Huang Ming received Zhong Ming's message and responded to it telepathically. Then, he turned his head towards Xuan Hao and said, "This mountain doesn't seem to have many living creatures. However, I did sense the trace of the Consolidating Equipment Grass on this mountain." Huang Ling stared at Xuan Hao and said seriously: "Master wants me to bring you to look for the Consolidating Equipment Grass."
Xuan Hao looked down at her and nodded slightly.
The two of them quickly walked down from the cliff, with Huang Ling leading the way. Not long later, they could sense the thick scent of the Consolidating Equipment Grass in the fog. Huang Ling's eyes lit up. She suddenly stopped and turned her head towards Xuan Hao, who had just stopped and was frowning, and said in a low voice, "It should be here soon. Don't act recklessly here, master is coming over soon. I'm going to lead the way for master right now. After saying thirty million, her tone was sincere and urgent as she stared fixedly at Xuan Hao.
Huang Ling's actions could be said to be in violation of Zhong Ming's orders, because Zhong Ming said that he would only ask Huang Ling to come back to him when Xuan Hao started fighting, and bring him to the battlefield. However, based on Huang Ling's understanding of Xuan Hao, this fool might really lose control when fighting, so just in case, Huang Ling decided to stop him from fighting until she brought her master here. Then, she would go and fight with the Demonic Beast.
If Xuan Hao heard Huang Ling's thoughts, he would probably sneer at her coldly. A young infant mouse actually dared to think that she had lived for a long time and was a fool of the Ancient Dragon Clan. However, Huang Ling's mental activities were too mysterious to be heard, and Huang Ling's appearance was extremely bewitching. Who wouldn't fulfill the pitiful request of a child? Xuan Hao helplessly nodded.
Satisfied, Huang Ling turned around and left, preparing to take Zhong Ming over. However, accidents often happen when people feel that there is no mistake.
After Huang Ling left, Xuan Hao found a place to conceal himself. However, a sizzling sound could be heard as the countless roots on the ground began to move. The branches of those withered trees were ferocious, and they even had a trace of intelligence!
Xuan Hao quickly sensed that something was wrong. He quickly got up, rode the wind, and flew forward. However, what awaited Xuan Hao in front of him was a row of malevolent, dried up trees that were connected by a row of branches.
The giant tree was covered with the blood of humans and Demonic Beast. Red blood dripped to the ground, flowing down along the brown colored branches.
Xuan Hao looked back at the ground. On the ground, the roots of these withered trees were like the blood vessels of a human. They slowly extended at an astonishing speed. Xuan Hao coldly glanced at the surrounding monsters that were overestimating themselves. The small Tree Spirit actually dared to challenge the dignity of the Ancient Dragon Clan. It was simply overestimating itself like a praying mantis trying to stop a chariot.
At this time, Xuan Hao no longer cared about his promise to Huang Ling and quickly turned into an ancient Demon Dragon. Its entire body was pitch-black and its eyes were blood-red. The three red scales on its forehead flickered slightly.
When Xuan Hao was forced to fight against these giant trees, Huang Ling and Zhong Ming did not stop. While rushing towards Xuan Hao's location like lightning, Zhong Ming and Huang Ming keenly felt the vibration in the air that shouldn't be there. Huang Ming paused for a moment. It seemed that Xuan Hao had not calmed down yet.
Zhong Ming's handsome face did not reveal any expression, as he slowly looked towards the distance.
This silly dragon, I hope it doesn't cause too much trouble. It was not known if he was aware of this problem now, but if by any chance he were to suddenly spill out of the Demonic Qi, it would alarm the entire Spirit King Realm. Although he had the space to temporarily avoid it, it was not very convenient.
Zhong Ming and Huang Ling were both burning with anxiety. They gradually increased their speed and arrived at the location of the battle in an instant.
Huang Ling was teleported into the space by Zhong Ming the moment she arrived. Huang Ling was a pet of Treasure Seeking, not a battle pet. Zhong Ming did not want Huang Ling to experience one more shock.
In the sky, a black dragon was spiraling. Its figure was barely visible as it passed through the clouds. The huge tree opposite it actually opened its mouth in a row. It was so black that it would cause one's hair to stand on end. On the ground, the intertwined black roots were continuously bulging up and digging into the ground. The entire black ground seemed to be filled with the roots of withered trees.
Xuan Hao dove down and did not see Zhong Ming, who was behind the battle field. His blood-red eyes were abnormally angry. No matter what these strange trees were, Xuan Hao only wanted to extinguish them with a fire. Such savageness, such evil, and to dare provoke them, they had to accept their anger. What Zhong Ming said before was to subdue the guards' leader beasts, but he didn't say that they couldn't kill these strange trees. The blood color in Xuan Hao's eyes gradually deepened. A bloodthirsty killing intent lingered in his eyes. Zhong Ming could feel Xuan Hao's monstrous anger even from far away.
Zhong Ming could understand Xuan Hao, after all, he had never seen such a cruel scene in his previous life. Even though this huge dragon had been here for even longer than he had, from what he could remember of this bloody scene, he had never seen such a cruel and bloody scene. Not only did these strange trees make him feel disgusted, they even aroused Xuan Hao's monstrous fury.
Zhong Ming wasn't afraid that Xuan Hao wouldn't be able to beat him, and Zhong Ming was afraid that Xuan Hao wouldn't be able to. He stared fixedly at Xuan Hao as he swooped down, and did not leave for even a moment. Apart from being vigilant of the surrounding dangers, he used all of his energy to estimate the threshold which Xuan Hao's Demonic Qi had triggered.
Huang Ling was in a panic as she spun around in the space. From time to time, she would recite Xuan Hao's bad words. She was worried that this silly dragon would be so disobedient and waste her painstaking efforts.
Outside of the space, the fighting situation was very intense. The dragon was fighting with the disgusting roots coming from all directions with its huge claws and tearing them into pieces. Without using any magic, he wanted to vent his anger.
Zhong Ming looked at Xuan Hao's fight and frowned. There was something wrong with this dragon.1
As expected, Xuan Hao brutally tore apart all of the roots bit by bit and then started to bite off another row of giant trees. He directly snapped the giant trees one by one. Xuan Hao was about to fall into madness. He was venting crazily.
After breaking all the giant trees, Xuan Hao looked at the wreckage on the ground and rushed into the sky. A loud dragon roar uncontrollably shook the air, and Xuan Hao spat out a mouthful of dragon breath from the sky. The black dragon breath became larger and larger like a black, bright ball of adhesive force, and it soon landed on the ground without a sound, instantly igniting into a black colored hidden fire.
Xuan Hao did not stop his actions. Dragon breath continued to descend from the sky, bringing with it an aura that could destroy the heavens and the earth. If one did not talk about the trees being burnt to ashes, there would be no end.
Just as the giant tree was about to die and the black flames on the ground were about to extinguish, Zhong Ming carried out the Spiritual Energy. Through the Blood Pact, he focused his voice on Xuan Hao's brain and with a loud bang, Xuan Hao fell onto the ground.
The black flames of the devil dragon had already spread to the surrounding environment. He still hadn't stopped and even wanted to burn down the entire mountain range, but this allowed him to be extremely arrogant. Yes, Xuan Hao wanted to burn down the entire mountain range. Zhong Ming heard the roar in his heart.
