Chapter 2331

~5 min read 987 words

Zhao Chi was very fond of Qi Yue.

But rationally speaking, Qi Yue could face at most two Hellhounds at once; any more would be too risky.

At this moment, the Hell Cerberuses had already surrounded them.

Tang Ruan and Qi Yue fought while retreating, always only facing a small number of Hellhounds.

With Tang Ruan helping Qi Yue share the burden, Qi Yue's offense became even smoother.

Whoosh~

A gust of wind swept past.

Zhao Chi turned his head back.

Boom boom boom boom!

With several loud crashes, four Bone Dragons slammed into the tree trunk one after another.

Crack!

As expected, another large section of the trunk snapped off, tumbling down into the sea of fire.

Another burst of sparks and smoke rose up.

However, three more Bone Dragons did not attack the giant tree, but instead dove toward Zhao Chi.

"Damn it…"

Zhao Chi cursed inwardly and pushed his speed to the limit.

Puff! Puff!

Two Bone Dragons opened their massive jaws, and two thick clouds of purple mist blasted out violently, instantly scattering the surrounding flames.

Zhao Chi felt as if two heavy purple clouds were pressing down on him; everywhere around him was a solemn purple.

Very choking.

His respiratory tract was definitely injured.

The view before his eyes was also blurred; both eyes were injured too.

This purple mist really could penetrate the fused armor and damage Zhao Chi's body…

Fortunately, Zhao Chi recovered the next moment.

But the next moment he was burned again.

It was just like driving in the rain.

As the wipers kept swiping away the rainwater, the view ahead alternated between clear and blurry.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Suddenly, five sharp sounds of tearing air appeared.

From three directions, at three angles.

Two of them attacked Zhao Chi directly, while the other three sealed off three directions around him.

Bone Dragons could even fight like this?

This was already on the level of tactical attack, wasn't it?

Hard to dodge!

Zhao Chi immediately located them by sound, dodging as best he could.

Boom boom boom! Boom boom!

One after another, five spots on the ground around him exploded.

Smoke and charcoal ash rose everywhere.

Broken branches and burning wood shot out.

Zhao Chi felt his face was covered in white ash and sparks.

But the fiery wind from the explosion successfully blew away the purple mist again, and Zhao Chi could see clearly once more.

The three Bone Dragons flew off into the distance.

They would probably circle back in a few seconds.

Zhao Chi broke out in a cold sweat.

That was really close just now.

He hadn't expected that besides predicting Zhao Chi's path, the Bone Dragons would also coordinate with each other to cut off his retreat.

Combined with the purple mist blocking his vision, although he dodged everything by relying on hearing and instinct, one of the bone spears had nearly grazed his cheek as it passed.

The feeling was no different from a speeding motorcycle whizzing past him.

Now there was only a sense of lingering fear.

If that 7-meter giant bone spear had stabbed into his body…

Too close a call.

But Zhao Chi had no time to dwell on fear, and immediately rushed at full speed toward the burning ancient tree.

He was already very close to the ancient tree.

At the same time, he activated Gu Qing's inherited Berserk Point, extending the duration of the inherited enhancement a bit.

Within two seconds, Zhao Chi nearly crashed into the flames.

There really was no time to slow down.

Thud!

He slammed himself to a hard stop.

Nearly a thousand HP evaporated.

Whoosh~

Whoosh~

The three bone dragons circled back, the whirlwind from their wings sending the surrounding flames leaping wildly in every direction.

Fortunately, Zhao Chi slammed into the tree, shattering the already burned bark on the surface of the giant tree, effectively smashing out a small tree hollow.

The surroundings were all flames and scorched smoke, so the bone dragons in the sky didn't notice Zhao Chi.

Perfect — a lucky accident.

Only now could Zhao Chi finally let out a breath of relief.

From a distance, it just looked like a massive ancient tree.

But as he got closer, Zhao Chi grew more and more awestruck.

This wasn't an ancient tree at all — it was practically a tall building.

The trunk was over a hundred meters tall, but the tree body was a full twenty-plus meters wide.

Truly worthy of the name Primordial Giant Tree.

But from another angle, the fact that this twenty-meter-wide trunk could be snapped clean in half meant those bone dragons really were incredibly powerful.

Since he'd already reached the spot, he immediately began helping with the treatment.

One slash severed an arm, then he pried open the artery, and bright red blood instantly sprayed onto the tree trunk.

Sizzle sizzle sizzle—

The flames on the tree were immediately doused.

Blood qi steamed upward.

Although the silk threads also had a healing effect, that healing came from the mucus coating them.

Mucus counted as bodily fluid, so it could heal.

Ultimately, it was still the healing effect of bodily fluids at work, so using blood directly was the most straightforward approach.

At the same time.

Zhao Chi thought of Shangguan Ting's freshly restored, tender body, and the dragon head jerked upward sharply.

Splash splash splash—

Another thick stream of yellow fluid gushed forth from the dragon's mouth.

One red and one yellow stream of bodily fluid quickly doused the entire fire inside the tree hollow.

But at the same time, a large amount of water vapor evaporated.

That smell... absolutely lethal!

... He should have just used blood.

After half a second of lamenting, Zhao Chi suddenly saw green sprouts shooting out everywhere inside the tree hollow, growing vigorously at a rapid pace.

The giant tree's own recovery speed wasn't this fast.
