The Mysterious Turtle, the Spirit Crane, and the Qilin all swiftly dodged away!
The colossal body of the Flood Dragon-Serpent was once again pinned to the ground by the Violet Heaven Divine Thunder.
A series of hoarse roars echoed!
Old wounds not yet healed, new injuries were added.
The exposed flesh was charred black by the lightning.
Simultaneously with the descent of the second heavenly thunderbolt,
the overall life-force of the Ancient Clan members increased by another thousand points.
Everyone's cultivation directly reached the peak of Martial Arts Master.
However, the life-force of some children and youths did not increase this time.
After the thunder tribulation passed,
the Qilin seized this opportunity
to launch another attack.
However, it was quite clear the Qilin was not skilled in combat.
It merely relied on its speed, using simple claw attacks or bites with its mouth.
The Spirit Crane, which had just pulled out its beak to avoid the lightning, once again stabbed it towards the Flood Dragon-Serpent's body.
The Flood Dragon-Serpent swung its tail.
The Spirit Crane easily avoided it.
But the Mysterious Turtle was sent flying by the blow.
Its massive body crashed into the mountain wall, embedding itself deeply.
Seizing this chance, the Flood Dragon-Serpent sprayed its venom in a mist form.
Within a few breaths,
the entire valley was shrouded in green poisonous fog.
Right at this moment, the third Violet Heaven Divine Thunder struck down again.
Another dazzling purple lightning illuminated the entire valley.
The Qilin and Spirit Crane both closed their eyes.
The Flood Dragon-Serpent let out another roar.
The severe damage from the thunder tribulation filled it with dread!
Moreover, each thunderbolt was twice as powerful as the last.
This made the Flood Dragon-Serpent's desire to devour the Mountain Soul and Water Spirit grow even more intense.
The Spirit Crane flapped its wings,
stirring up a fierce gale
that swiftly dispersed the Flood Dragon-Serpent's poisonous fog.
The Qilin seized this opportunity
to attack again.
It flashed past the Flood Dragon-Serpent, a piece of flesh already in its mouth.
Its body trembled slightly, clearly having suffered significant injury as well.
The Qilin's speed was too fast.
Even with all its might, the Flood Dragon-Serpent could hardly avoid the Qilin's attacks.
It could only resort to trading injury for injury.
The moment the Qilin attacked, it would thrust its massive body forward to collide.
At this moment, the Spirit Crane took the chance to poke another bloody hole in the Flood Dragon-Serpent's body.
However, the Flood Dragon-Serpent forcefully clamped down on the Spirit Crane's beak with its muscles.
Although it only held it for an instant,
it was enough for the Flood Dragon-Serpent.
Its enormous serpentine body immediately coiled towards the Spirit Crane.
The Spirit Crane, startled, struggled fiercely to escape.
But it was a step too late.
First its legs were entangled, then its body.
The sound of cracking bones immediately rang out.
Seizing this chance, the Mysterious Turtle spoke to the Mountain Soul and Water Spirit floating in the air:
"Quick, hide inside my shell."
The Mountain Soul and Water Spirit, somewhat confused, drifted towards the Mysterious Turtle.
The Flood Dragon-Serpent, unable to attend to the Spirit Crane, hastily flung it away.
It opened its gigantic maw, once again lunging to bite the Mountain Soul and Water Spirit.
It did not want them hiding inside the Mysterious Turtle's shell.
It knew all too well how hard that shell was.
Elsewhere,
Chen Feng finally arrived at the Yin pole of the Jade Mountain's Jasper Pool.
However, a tremendous change had already occurred within the Yin pole Jasper Pool.
It had turned into a state of chaos.
The previous black, viscous substance had completely vanished.
It looked gray and murky.
Chen Feng pondered briefly.
Then he jumped directly in.
Though he didn't know what was happening, he had to try.
...
At the critical moment,
a sound like the sky cracking apart rang out once more.
The fourth Violet Heaven Divine Thunder fell.
The Flood Dragon-Serpent's body suffered heavy damage again.
This time, the doubled thunder tribulation caused almost all the scales on its back to shatter.
The exposed flesh was completely blackened and charred.
The Mountain Soul and Water Spirit successfully slipped into the Mysterious Turtle's shell.
Coupled with the Qilin's frenzied assaults,
the Flood Dragon-Serpent grew increasingly frantic, roaring in fury.
"Damnable Qilin!"
"Zhang Bowen! Why haven't you made your move yet?!"
Inside the Jade Mountain, Zhang Bowen chuckled darkly.
"The Flood Dragon-Serpent seems impatient."
"Qianqian, it's time for us to make our entrance."
Mmph... mmph...
Qianqian's mouth was gagged.
Her limbs were also bound by chains.
Zhang Bowen carried her to a platform on the Jade Mountain, which was also the Ancient Clan's training ground.
By now, the cultivation of the Ancient Clan members had also risen to five thousand points of life-force,
reaching the late-stage Martial Grandmaster level.
Zhang Bowen, facing the battling Qilin, used his Lion's Roar Technique and shouted:
"Qilin! I've captured Qianqian!"
With that,
he directly threw Qianqian off the cliff edge.
It was also the spot currently closest to the Flood Dragon-Serpent.
The Flood Dragon-Serpent, already prepared,
instantly opened its gigantic maw, biting at the now within-reach Qianqian.
A serpent's fastest movement is the moment it opens its mouth to strike its prey.
At that very moment,
from within the empty Jasper Pool,
a sword-shadow shot out.
Chen Feng happened to witness this scene that made his eyes nearly burst with rage.
"Qianqian!"
The sword-shadow, merged with his person, shot towards the Flood Dragon-Serpent without a second thought.
However, the disparity in their strength was too great.
It caused almost no harm to the Flood Dragon-Serpent.
At the instant the Flood Dragon-Serpent's jaws snapped shut,
Chen Feng clearly saw
Qianqian's bewildered face turn towards his direction.
But those lifeless eyes could see nothing.
The next moment, the Flood Dragon-Serpent's maw closed completely.
Simultaneously, a spray of blood mist erupted from the edges of its mouth.
Chen Feng froze instantly.
That silly little apprentice of his!
Was she just... dead?
CRACK!
The sky seemed to shatter!
The fifth Violet Heaven Divine Thunder descended.
The Flood Dragon-Serpent resisted with all its might, but the sound of bones breaking already came from its body.
Its body emitted a strong smell of charring, with wisps of black smoke rising.
The thunderlight illuminated Chen Feng's stunned face.
Unable to accept this outcome, his eyes instantly turned crimson.
Then he locked onto the figure on the cliff halfway up the Jade Mountain, on the Ancient Clan's training ground.
"Zhang Bowen!"
A furious roar!
Accompanied by the cry of a sword!
Chen Feng, merged with his sword, instantly shot towards the platform on the Jade Mountain.
"Six thousand life-force points! Your cultivation speed is truly fast."
Zhang Bowen smiled faintly.
Now, the life-force suppression over Kunlun had been weakened by the five Violet Heaven Divine Thunderbolts.
His own life-force had also increased to six thousand points,
reaching the peak of Martial Grandmaster.
Facing Chen Feng, who only had six thousand life-force points,
he felt no fear whatsoever.
He immediately activated his Indestructible Vajra Body technique.
Yet, in the next moment,
the Chen Feng before him was surrounded by swirling dragon-shadows.
A golden energy shield enveloped his entire body.
An unbelievably massive martial arts phantom, a hundred meters tall,
holding a giant sword phantom in its hand,
swung its sword!
The scene before Zhang Bowen's eyes suddenly spun out of control.
He saw heaven and earth flip over.
He saw behind himself.
He saw his own headless body.
"I actually couldn't block it! How could the power be so formidable?"
"Could his swordsmanship have reached the Harmony of Heaven and Man realm?"
"But it still shouldn't be this powerful!"
This time, Zhang Bowen lost his smile.
His heart was filled with bewilderment and shock.
Chen Feng caught Zhang Bowen's head.
Roaring in furious rage, he demanded:
"Why did you kill Qianqian?!"
"Wasn't she your clansman?!"
In the final moments of his life, Zhang Bowen's gaze drifted towards the sky above the Jade Mountain Jasper Pool.
He scanned the area but could not find the Qilin's figure.
He glanced at the bloodstains on the Flood Dragon-Serpent's lips.
He revealed the last smile of his life.
"Yes... why?"
"I asked the same question three hundred years ago."
Zhang Bowen remembered.
Over three hundred years ago, he and his mother had waited sixty years for someone who never appeared.
Instead, that person's child had come.
] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
ose... to cooperate with the protagonist! Shen Yuan: I have a system! Protagonist: What? System: Holy crap, you're just spilling it out like that? Shen Yuan: Let's team up, we'll split the system rewards! Protagonist: Fifty-fifty split? Shen Yuan: No way! Protagonist: What!? I'm the one getting beaten up, and I don't get half? Shen Yuan: Forty-sixty split, I get forty, you get sixty! Protagonist: Deal! Big brother, come on, hit me! As long as it doesn't kill me, beat me like you mean it! Shen Yuan: Don't worry... I will definitely protect all of you! No one but me can lay a finger on you! Guard our Heaven's Chosen Ones! I'm the only one allowed to bully them!
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
