Chapter 540: Bronze Behemoth (Second Update, requesting everything)

Like the final straw that breaks a camel's back, as Hei Long Ha Li Ku Qi dove into the Swamp, the dependents who were already at an absolute disadvantage completely collapsed; some dove into the swamp, while more fled in all directions.

These wild Spirit Beasts were dependents that Ha Li Ku Qi had only recently subdued, and with Ha Li Ku Qi being quite harsh toward them, there was no loyalty to speak of.

"Catch!"

At the first opportunity, Li Zhangsheng threw the Cangxuan Earth-Fixing Pearl and the Cangxuan Water-Stabilizing Pearl to Ning Bizhen.

Splash—

Ning Bizhen hurriedly channeled her Mental Power into the two precious pearls, and the two pearls floated up, both simultaneously emitting misty lights of different colors.

The next moment, countless mud and water surged up from the mud pond, transforming into dozens of water dragons and earth dragons several meters thick.

Splash—

The water dragons gathered in one place, either scorched and evaporated by the Three-Legged Fire Crow's flames or frozen into ice mountains by the Cold Jade Rabbit's frosty aura.

The earth dragons landed several hundred meters away, and in an instant, several small hills took shape, growing at an extremely fast speed.

The area of this Swamp was several times that of the swamp where the Swamp Giant Python lived, but Ning Bizhen was no longer who she used to be, and her extraction speed far exceeded what it was before.

While Ning Bizhen was in action, the Green-Eyed Golden-Eyed Beast was also assisting from the side, appearing on the other side of the Swamp to quickly extract the water from it, with an extraction speed even faster than Ning Bizhen's operation of the Cangxuan Water-Stabilizing Pearl.

Li Zhangsheng had no intention of transforming into a Black Tortoise; it was not that he did not trust Ning Bizhen, but that this place would soon be crowded with eyes, and he did not want to expose the Xuanji Nine Transformations.

This was a top-tier auxiliary Demon-Taming Art, and even if its restrictions were great, people still flocked to it, and even Kings would covet it.

The Swamp began to disappear at a speed visible to the naked eye, and a hole that was growing larger and larger appeared where it had been.

At the speed of Ning Bizhen and the Green-Eyed Golden-Eyed Beast working together, it would probably only take a minute or two to finish.

A hundred meters deep in the Swamp, Ha Li Ku Qi was originally thinking of a countermeasure when suddenly, the entire swamp shook violently, which gave it a start, and upon sensing Ning Bizhen's actions, its heart was filled with panic.

It was true that Ha Li Ku Qi was a cunning black dragon, but it had never had the thought of leaving itself a way out since it reached adulthood, so naturally, there was no such thing as "a cunning rabbit having three burrows."

Most importantly, Ha Li Ku Qi's body was too large, and it was not very good at digging, so it would take a long time to dig a tunnel that it could pass through.

However, Ha Li Ku Qi knew very well that it had to come up with a way before the swamp dried up completely, otherwise today might very well be its death day.

But this was easier said than done; it could only think of a delaying tactic to delay the drying of the swamp as much as possible.

Hei Long Ha Li Ku Qi immediately took action, its massive dragon body swimming under the swamp, and within a few breaths, it appeared not far from Ning Bizhen.

Ha Li Ku Qi could not continue to advance, otherwise it would be directly exposed to the enemy's line of sight.

In an instant, Ha Li Ku Qi burst out from the swamp, opened its mouth, and sprayed a stream of Acid Breath toward Ning Bizhen.

As if Li Zhangsheng had predicted the black dragon's move in advance, the Taiyin Token immediately appeared, shrouding both him and Ning Bizhen under a Moonlight Screen.

The Acid Breath landed on it, and the Moonlight Screen immediately showed thrilling ripples, giving the impression that it might shatter at any moment, but it ultimately withstood it.

Even so, the Moonlight Screen became much dimmer.

"Attack!"

Following Li Zhangsheng's order, the thirteen Demon Pets simultaneously released long-range skills, swarming toward the big head that Ha Li Ku Qi had exposed from the swamp.

Ha Li Ku Qi had no intention of resisting head-on, even though these Demon Pets were all Demon King-level, there were several among them that possessed the strength to threaten it.

From beginning to end, Ning Bizhen did not lose focus; the two precious pearls began to spin rapidly, and more and more water dragons and earth dragons appeared, increasing efficiency.

In the time that followed, Ha Li Ku Qi probed several times, but each time it returned empty-handed; Li Zhangsheng not only used defensive Strange Treasures but also utilized the power of his Demon Pets to deflect its attacks.

In the swamp, Hei Long Ha Li Ku Qi began to summon the dependents who had dove into the swamp to hide, and in half a minute, it summoned more than ten dependents.

Among them, only the Hydra reached the Overlord-level; as for those two adult black dragons, they chose to flee directly, and it was unknown where they went.

If it weren't for being pushed into a corner, the Hydra would not want to dive into the swamp, because that was no different from a suspended death sentence.

Under the command of Hei Long Ha Li Ku Qi, the dozen or so dependents of Ha Li Ku Qi had to bite the bullet and crawl out of the swamp to launch an offensive, and regardless of whether they hit the target or not, they immediately dove back into the swamp at the fastest speed.

The purpose of doing this was mainly to attract the attention of the two and create an opportunity for Ha Li Ku Qi.

Unfortunately, the number of Ha Li Ku Qi's dependents was too small, and their strength was uneven, making it difficult to have much impact on Li Zhangsheng and Ning Bizhen, and their offensives were easily neutralized.

Li Zhangsheng did not counterattack and let them continue to attack; even with Ha Li Ku Qi added, his Demon Pets could guarantee their safety.

Seeing that it was of no use, Ha Li Ku Qi had to change its target and set its sights on the Green-Eyed Golden-Eyed Beast.

As long as the Green-Eyed Golden-Eyed Beast stopped, it could also achieve the goal of stalling for time.

Unfortunately, Ning Bizhen had long been prepared; her several Overlord-level Demon Pets were guarding the Green-Eyed Golden-Eyed Beast, not giving Ha Li Ku Qi any chance at all.

Before Ha Li Ku Qi could think of other ways, in just over a minute, Ha Li Ku Qi's figure finally appeared in the nearly dried-up swamp.

Even if Ha Li Ku Qi lay on the bottom of the swamp, it still could not be hidden; there was no way, one could only blame its body for being too massive to be covered up.

Besides Ha Li Ku Qi, there was also an extremely spacious large hole, which was its Dragon Lair.

Caw—

The Three-Legged Fire Crow dove down, heading straight for Ha Li Ku Qi.

The Green-Eyed Golden-Eyed Beast stopped its water-extracting action and rushed up as well, carrying the Cold Jade Rabbit.

Not only the three Demon King-level Demon Pets, but Li Zhangsheng and Ning Bizhen's other Demon Pets also rushed up together to assist the three Demon King-level Demon Pets in finishing off Ha Li Ku Qi as quickly as possible.

Roar—

Ha Li Ku Qi let out an unwilling Dragon Roar and rushed out from the nearly dried-up swamp; its eyes were bloodshot, and it engaged in a life-and-death struggle with the three Demon King-level Demon Pets.

Roar—

It was also at this moment that a vigorous Dragon Roar sounded from afar; Li Zhangsheng, standing at the tip of a large tree, looked toward the south and saw a huge black dot appear in the direction of the Rongduan Mountain Range, which was expanding at a very fast speed.

The Red Dragon King Yanasansi!

Besides the Red Dragon King, Li Zhangsheng faintly heard two more beast roars, coming from the southeast and the north respectively.

To the southeast, that was naturally the territory of the Golden Lion Zeryanas, but Zeryanas could not fly, so Li Zhangsheng did not see its figure for the time being.

As for the support from the north, Li Zhangsheng could see a tall figure; it was a Behemoth with a bronze luster.

Even without getting a full glimpse, one could still feel its power; all the large trees encountered along the way were brutally snapped by it, and it was difficult to even slow its speed.

According to Li Zhangsheng's estimation, this Behemoth was at least sixty meters tall, and its strength was outrageous.

"Bronze Behemoth Yierzesikasi!"

With such an obvious mark, Li Changsheng recognized it immediately.

The Bronze Behemoth can be said to be the next evolutionary stage of the Behemoth, so its strength is self-evident.

To put it bluntly, Li Changsheng and his companion would rather face the combination of Harikuchi, the Red Dragon King, and the Golden Lion than face the lone Bronze Behemoth, Yierzesikasi.

Although they are all Demon King level, compared to the former three, the Bronze Behemoth Yierzesikasi is clearly stronger, and coupled with its defense-ignoring trait, it is very easy to cause casualties when facing it.

"Must finish off Harikuchi before the Bronze Behemoth arrives!"

Li Changsheng thought to himself, immediately casting Swift as Wind on Aixi and Bloodthirsty Frenzy on Adai.

Aixi's already extremely fast speed became even faster, surpassing even Harikuchi, and just as Harikuchi opened its mouth, it threw the Yuanhe Ten-Color Pearl that Li Changsheng had given it into its mouth.

In the blink of an eye, the massive energy carried by the Yuanhe Ten-Color Pearl began to take effect, causing Harikuchi's stomach to churn violently, which made its movements pause.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the three Demon Beasts pounced, and even though part of the damage was exempted by the Mystery Guard, they still severely wounded Harikuchi and knocked it out of the sky.

Adai opened its blood-red eyes and jumped up with force, colliding with the falling black dragon, and under Harikuchi's terrified gaze, it clawed at its eye socket.

Harikuchi subconsciously closed its eyes, wanting to use its eyelids to block.

Sshhh—

Adai's sharp claws were first neutralized of most of their force by the Mystery Guard, and even the defense-ignoring ability in this strike was suppressed by more than half, colliding with the dense Dragon Scale on Harikuchi's eyelids and emitting a harsh sound.

Compared to other parts of the black dragon, the defense of the eyelids is much weaker.

Pfft—

In an instant, Adai's sharp claws tore through the eyelid, plunged straight into Harikuchi's eye socket, and gouged out its eyeball.

Roar—

Harikuchi let out a painful Dragon Roar, the sound carrying obvious weakness, as it slammed heavily into the dried-up pit.

In the sky, the Three-Legged Fire Crow swooped down, its body spinning at high speed, its sharp Bird Beak flashing with a cold glint, drilling straight into Harikuchi's other Longyan, with the entire Bird Beak, over two meters long, sinking into the eye socket.

The Cold Jade Rabbit and the Green-Eyed Golden-Eyed Beast naturally did not miss the opportunity to beat the fallen dragon; their attacks also hit Harikuchi's various vital points, such as the Green-Eyed Golden-Eyed Beast's hooves kicking at its crotch, and the ice spear condensed by the Cold Jade Rabbit inserting straight into its anus, in order to maximize output.

At this moment, Harikuchi was in agony, and after struggling a few times, it stopped moving altogether.

At this time, the Red Dragon King was less than ten miles away from here.

Seeing this, Li Changsheng hurriedly said to Ning Bizhen: "Bizhen, help me buy some time!"

Without waiting for Ning Bizhen to answer, Li Changsheng immediately took his Demon Pets into the Dragon Lair and began to sweep up the spoils.
