Chapter 170: Stealing Treasure Lion

The corrupt male green dragon completely adopted the "delaying tactics" approach, fighting extremely conservatively.

It did not take the initiative to attack, but instead relied on advantageous terrain and consumed its retinue to drain the Jade King Snake's spiritual power and stamina.

Constantly delaying its attack rhythm.

A vague sense of foreboding arose in the Jade King Snake's heart.

However, it has now gone all out, but it is difficult to heavily injure or even kill the corrupt green dragon in a short time.

At that moment, a towering giant lion-like beast dharma image suddenly appeared not far away.

This lion-like beast exuded an unparalleled aura, as if it were a colossal creature from the primordial wilderness.

Next, the Jade King Snake saw this lion-like beast instantly kill a heavenly calamity realm poisonous flying dragon! Seeing this, the Jade King Snake's eyes couldn't help but show excitement and delight.

"Interesting!"

It never expected that the ice lion, whose eavesdropping it had discovered earlier, actually possessed such terrifying combat power! Now its interest in this ice lion grew even stronger.

More importantly—the combat power currently displayed by this ice lion is not much weaker than that of the corrupt male green dragon!

If it could join forces with me to deal with the corrupt green dragon, it surely wouldn't take much time for me to kill the corrupt green dragon! The Jade King Snake thought this, and thus let out a roar toward Chen Mo's direction:

"Hss!" (Ice lion, come help me!)

Contrary to the Jade King Snake's mood, the corrupt male green dragon felt as if it had plunged into an abyss the moment it saw the lion-like beast dharma image.

I never expected the Jade King Snake to actually find such a ferocious "helper"! Now I am already at a disadvantage.

If this giant ice lion joins the battle, I might not be able to hold out until the dragon mother returns! I could very well die here! Hearing the Jade King Snake's "call for aid," Chen Mo didn't even glance at it, heading straight for the green dragon's nest.

His goal was very clear.

Helping out is out of the question; for Chen Mo, having the Jade King Snake and the green dragon couple both suffer losses is the best outcome.

With this time, going to loot the green dragon couple's treasury wouldn't be great, right!?

"You're being too bold!"

The heaven canopy ice spider possessing the little ice spider couldn't help but speak.

Regarding Chen Mo not fleeing but instead taking advantage of the fire to loot, it felt somewhat nostalgic and appreciative.

Back when it was weak, it likewise would fight and scramble for resources! "Caw!" (Too exciting, crow!) The snow god crow felt very excited!

Thus, under the Jade King Snake's "anticipating" gaze, Chen Mo flew straight toward the corrupt green dragon's "treasury"! "Hss!"

Seeing this, the corrupt male green dragon felt both relieved and angry.

The relief was that the ice lion hadn't come over, so I could still drag things out a bit longer.

The anger was that my "home" had been stolen!

This time I really got my home stolen!

"Roar!" (Too bad, it seems the helper you found isn't reliable.) The corrupt green dragon jeered while fighting.

However, what greeted it was an even more fierce assault.

The Jade King Snake was somewhat surprised, but not entirely unexpected.

This giant lion, having met it by chance, making such a choice for its own benefit is also understandable.

But it's fine.

Corrupt male green dragon, it must be killed!

Treasures, it must be taken!

This ice lion, it also wants it!

Whoosh! The Jade King Snake again unleashed the "Viper Spirit Flash," its figure instantly vanishing—

Soon, Chen Mo arrived at the green dragon's nest, namely the top of the giant arrow poison ancient tree.

During this, he hardly encountered any green dragon retinue.

These retinue members have their own thoughts; seeing Chen Mo so brave, they naturally wouldn't rush up to die!

The green dragon's nest is located atop the giant arrow poison tree, with lush branches and leaves intertwining into a dense green sea, resembling an aerial garden.

Chen Mo passed through the dense foliage and discovered that the interior of this arrow poison ancient tree had been completely hollowed out, constructed into a huge "nest".

This nest is further divided into many layers, and Chen Mo felt a strong primal spiritual power on almost every layer.

Inside are pieces of treasure!

Presumably so they could always see their treasures, each layer's treasure is directly exposed, protected only by a layer of green semi-transparent seal-like protective shield.

Thus, when the green dragon couple usually sleeps in the top nest, they just need to lower their heads to see countless treasures.

This green dragon couple would enjoy that.

Chen Mo hesitated not, flying straight to the bottom of the green dragon's nest, first arriving at the lowest layer's "treasury".

Because the primal spiritual power aura he felt in this layer's treasury was the strongest!

Coming into view were dozens of heavenly calamity-grade poisonous treasure gems, these poisonous treasure gems being of extremely high quality, each a supreme product! 【Poisonous Treasure Gem】

【Quality: Fourth Tier (Heavenly Calamity Grade)】

【Fourth-tier mineral, containing rich poison-system primal ability; after heavenly calamity realm beings consume it, they can elevate to transcendent grade.】

The interior of the green dragon's nest is spacious and bright; although there are no torches or other lighting tools, the light emitted by these poisonous treasure gems alone is enough to illuminate the dragon's nest as brightly as daytime.

However, to obtain the treasures inside, this layer's seal must first be destroyed.

To protect their "wealth," the green dragon couple's left protective shield is very strong, able to resist high-level attacks of the heavenly calamity realm.

Moreover, once attacked, it will spread within the nest a highly corrosive poisonous toxin it contains.

Chen Mo, without hesitation, immediately activated his dharma image, then gathered his full bodily strength into his foreleg and fiercely struck the seal!

Crack! accompanied by incessant cracking sounds, the protective shield's surface showed countless spiderweb-like cracks, then after reaching a certain limit it completely shattered into fragments.

The lion-like beast dharma image's explosive power is no less than a full-strength strike from a heavenly calamity realm peak being! Chen Mo directly placed those dozens of poisonous treasure gems into his backpack.

And after collecting those poisonous treasure gems, it didn't linger for a moment, immediately proceeding to the second-to-last layer's treasury.

In this level of the treasury are two Disaster‑level fourth‑tier divine elixirs!

The Suanni avatar erupts at full power, and then its true form places the fourth‑tier divine elixir into its pouch.

At the same time, the avatar has already begun destroying the seal on the third‑from‑last level.

Boom! Boom! The current Chen Mo is like a mouse that fell into a rice jar, frantically tearing down the seals and then gathering the treasures.

Besides numerous poison‑type treasures, there are also some ice‑type minerals, spiritual plants, and the inner core of Disaster‑Realm creatures. Chen Mo possesses the 【True Spirit Bloodline】, allowing him to absorb spiritual energy of any attribute.

Poison‑type treasures have little effect on him.

The important thing is—

All these treasures are of Disaster‑Realm quality!

"These treasures are enough for you to ascend to the Disaster‑Realm peak!" "I didn't expect this green dragon to have scavenged so many treasures."

The little ice spider feels a bit emotional.

These resources are nothing to it, but for a Disaster‑Realm creature, they are still too many.

It must be said, this would be exploitative for the green‑dragon couple.

"Roar!"

Just as Chen Mo frantically raids the green‑dragon treasury, a relatively unfamiliar roar suddenly echoes from outside.

Another Corrupt Mother Green Dragon returns! "It's gone!"

Chen Mo casts a glance at the treasury.

The Green Dragon Nest's treasury has about 30 levels; he scavenged the lower 25 levels cleanly, and the remaining few levels emit only faint spiritual energy.

Having already scavenged most of the Green Dragon Nest, Chen Mo does not greedily try to capture every treasure, but instead chooses to make a quick escape.

Ascending to the Disaster‑Realm peak, these resources are already more than enough! "Roar!"

The Corrupt Dragon Mother rushes back to the dragon nest at her fastest speed, and at first glance sees the dire state of the Corrupt Male Green Dragon.

At this moment, the Corrupt Male Green Dragon looks rather miserable.

Its whole body of dark‑green scales is shattered, blood spurting, the chest and abdomen expose huge wounds deep enough to see the bones, and the most tragic part is that one wing is missing! It was struck by the Jade King Snake's 【Viper Spirit Flash】; faced with the snake's fierce jade poison, it could only bravely sever its own half‑wing.

Even a being at the Disaster‑Realm peak needs time for a broken wing to fully recover.

Let alone the Corrupt Male Green Dragon, who has been in intense combat, nerves hyper‑focused, with no time to heal.

If it were a few minutes later, it might truly die here!

"Sss!"

Seeing the Dragon Mother's figure, the Jade King Snake is not frightened at all!

The jade‑colored snake's eyes lock onto the Corrupt Male Green Dragon, then it activates 【Viper Spirit Flash】 again, teleporting beside the dragon.

Although the Corrupt Dragon Mother has returned, the Corrupt Male Green Dragon is now severely wounded and cannot exert full combat power!

Even if it faces two opponents, it is no match, but escaping would be more than easy.

If we can eliminate the Corrupt Male Green Dragon, we'd have a huge chance! The advantage is ours!

Swoosh! Facing the Jade King Snake's 【Viper Spirit Flash】, the Corrupt Male Green Dragon also found a counter‑strategy; the instant its figure vanished from his sight, it recklessly unleashed the massive potential within its body, forced a speed boost, and left its original position!

Just as the Jade King Snake's figure appeared, the Corrupt Dragon Mother's deadly toxic breath followed in quick succession.

Its mind is linked with the Corrupt Dragon Mother; in the instant of evasion, the mother also pinpointed the Jade King Snake's location.

Boom! The Jade King Snake's massive body is brushed by the Corrupt Dragon's breath, its scales shatter and are quickly corroded, yet within a blink they heal rapidly.

The Jade King Snake's gaze becomes solemn.

If the two green dragons join forces, the resulting combat power far exceeds that of a single Corrupt Green Dragon! "Roar!"

At this moment, the Corrupt Dragon Mother suddenly lets out an extremely angry roar, even more furious than when she saw her "husband's" dire condition earlier.

As a guardian of wealth, the Corrupt Dragon Mother is extremely sensitive to her treasures, leaving her mark on each one.

During the battle, it suddenly senses its treasure moving at an astonishing speed, and its gaze turns toward the Green Dragon Nest.

It happens to see Chen Mo making a quick getaway.

A snow‑white, handsome ice lion, carrying its treasure, is leaving the Green Dragon Nest, soaring swiftly into the distance! It never imagined that some audacious fool would dare steal its treasure—and that the thief is merely a mid‑Disaster‑Realm creature!

"Roar!" (That's my treasure! Put it down!) The Corrupt Dragon Mother lets out an angry roar toward Chen Mo's direction, the sound almost materializing and sweeping outward.

The Corrupt Male Green Dragon's eyes also turn red.

For this couple, these treasures are as important as their own lives! Moreover, that despicable lion stole the bulk of their accumulated wealth over the years!

"Roar!"

The Corrupt Male Green Dragon immediately flaps its remaining wing, attempting to pursue.

However, just as it starts, it sees the Corrupt Dragon Mother launch like a fighter jet, thrusting toward the direction the giant lion fled.

Seeing this, the Corrupt Male Green Dragon continues to maneuver with the Jade King Snake.

No big problem.

I can hold out a bit longer! As long as the Dragon Mother swiftly finishes off that despicable lion and then returns to support, it's fine.

After all, it's just a mid‑Disaster‑Realm creature; the Dragon Mother should be able to kill it instantly!

Seeing the Corrupt Dragon Mother chase the ice lion, the Jade King Snake also pauses in surprise.

It then launches an even more fierce attack.

It didn't expect that the ice lion's act of stealing treasure from the Green Dragon Nest would produce such a result.

It can be considered an indirect way of helping itself by tying up the Corrupt Dragon Mother, an important combat force.

Now is its best chance to kill the Corrupt Male Green Dragon!

Moreover, if the Corrupt Dragon Mother pursues the ice lion, it likely won't take long to kill it.

It hopes the Suanni gets a lesson, but does not wish it to be killed! Swoosh! The Jade King Snake's figure disappears again.

The Corrupt Green Dragon also releases a stream, causing its speed to surge suddenly.

Want to dodge.

However, it was useless! After the Emerald King Snake's silhouette appeared at the spot it had just been, it strangely disappeared again! Double 【Viper Spirit Flash】! 【Viper Spirit Flash】 is not true teleportation, but rather an instantaneous burst of extreme speed that produces a teleport-like effect.

This ability places a huge strain on the body! Releasing Viper Spirit Flash twice in a row exceeds the Emerald King Snake's physical limit!

It also inflicts some damage on itself.

But the Emerald King Snake can't worry about that now! Rip!

The Emerald King Venom, accompanied by a hiss from the fangs, was injected again into the Corrupted Male Green Dragon's body.

Immediately after, the Emerald King Snake released 【Lethal Poison Sun】 up close, striking the Corrupted Male Green Dragon squarely.

In an instant, the Corrupted Male Green Dragon, like a kite with its string cut, its massive body plummeted rapidly from the air. On the other side, seeing the Corrupted Dragon Mother rapidly chasing after him, Chen Mo was stunned for a moment.

No, what's wrong with you?

Your 'husband' the Corrupted Male Green Dragon is about to be beaten to death, yet you don't go help but instead come chase me?

Regarding the Dragon Mother's choice, Chen Mo simply couldn't comprehend it.

"Roar!" (Damn it! Quickly put down my treasure!)

The Corrupted Dragon Mother let out a somewhat urgent roar.

Chen Mo also didn't hold back, directly activating 【Dharma Manifestation】 and actively moving to meet the Corrupted Dragon Mother.

Meanwhile, using two minds as one, his true self hurriedly carried the treasure toward the cave where the teleportation array was located. (End of chapter)
