353: Chapter 353 The Flood Dragon Retreats, Devouring the Flood Dragon

"Little girl, when there's danger, of course your Young Master goes first!"

Hun Tiandi revealed a faint smile. With a flicker of his body, he lunged toward the cold pond. Dou Qi surged out, condensing into a fist that smashed toward the water.

Surging power flowed, creating bursts of spray upon the surface of the cold pond.

Roar!

In the next moment, a sky-shaking roar rang out. Like a dragon yet resembling a snake, a magical beast with golden scales, no feet, and a dragon-like head emerged from beneath the cold pond.

A Flood Dragon?

Hun Tiandi cried out in surprise. A faint silver glow erupted from his feet, and with a 'chi' sound, he vanished from sight, immediately darting toward the distance.

The Flood Dragon followed closely, moving with extreme speed as it pursued Hun Tiandi. Wherever it passed, trees shattered and flowers were devastated.

It opened its bloody maw wide. Its hideous head slithered along, leaving a deep serpentine trail on the ground.

The aura of a Flood Dragon flowed all over its body.

By Hun Tiandi's estimation, this Flood Dragon likely had the strength of a Nine-star Dou Huang, two major realms above him.

If his Three Thousand Lightning Movement technique hadn't reached the Lightning Flash level, escaping with his life would likely have been extremely difficult.

"Young Master is risking his life to lure the Flood Dragon away for me; I absolutely cannot miss this chance!"

Qing Yue clenched her palms. Her figure became like a gentle breeze as she suddenly bolted out, lunging toward the star grass beside the cold pond.

Just at the moment she was about to succeed.

Plop!

The sound of water splashing erupted from the cold pond once more. A Flood Dragon, slightly smaller than the previous one, emerged from beneath the surface.

Roar!

It let out a sky-shaking wild roar, its entire body radiating a powerful aura as it looked down upon Qing Yue.

Seeing this, Qing Yue abruptly halted her steps. A trace of terror flickered in her beautiful eyes; there was actually another Flood Dragon.

A male and a female—Young Master, save me!

The Flood Dragon hovered in the air, looking down at Qing Yue with bloodthirsty pupils. Qing Yue slowly stood up, her emerald-green eyes staring back at the Flood Dragon.

"What a strange Flood Dragon. Could it be a magical beast that mutated under the influence of the Dragon-Snake Qi of Dragon Burial Mountain?"

A shocking thought flashed through Hun Tiandi's mind as he evaded the Flood Dragon's pursuit.

But the Flood Dragon's speed was incredibly fast.

Glancing at the Flood Dragon from the corner of his eye, a strange look crossed his face. With a thought, he stirred the Purple Dragon King Qi within his body.

Roar!

Suddenly, purple Qi surged over Hun Tiandi's body, coiling behind him into a purple-black illusory dragon shadow. The aura of a superior magical beast emanated from him.

The Purple Dragon King Qi appeared for the first time!

A pure Dragon Might crushed toward the Flood Dragon. It immediately caused the pursuing Flood Dragon's body to tremble, and its speed decreased.

A look of fear flickered within the Flood Dragon's bloodthirsty pupils.

Roar!

It let out a sound of unwilling frustration, gave Hun Tiandi a deep look, and then lunged back toward the cold pond.

Hun Tiandi's expression shifted in alarm. He thought anxiously, 'Why hasn't Qing Yue caught up yet? Could something have happened?'

At that thought, he moved his body, lunging toward the cold pond with his speed pushed to the limit.

Beside the cold pond!

Looking at the tiny human Qing Yue, a hint of mockery flashed in the female Flood Dragon's giant eyes. It opened its massive mouth and tilted its head back.

A terrifying devouring force erupted, enveloping Qing Yue and causing her figure to be pulled toward the Flood Dragon.

When the force reached its peak, the dragon suddenly spat. Qing Yue was instantly sent flying, crashing violently into the distance.

Puchi!

Qing Yue's body slammed into a tree. She spat out a mouthful of blood, her pretty face turning deathly pale.

Perhaps because Qing Yue possessed a trace of Snake-Person bloodline within her, the Flood Dragon was extremely interested in her. Its giant eyes shifted, and it opened its bloody maw, intending to swallow her.

"You... don't come over here!"

Facing the hideous dragon head, Qing Yue shouted in anger.

Hiss...

The Flood Dragon flicked its tongue, licking her fair little face. The slippery mucus emitted a foul, fishy stench.

Suddenly turning its head, the female Flood Dragon sensed the male Flood Dragon's aura and let out a roar.

Behind it, a human aura was also following, approaching rapidly at extreme speed.

Roar!

A flash of cruelty appeared in the female Flood Dragon's eyes. It opened its mouth wide to swallow Qing Yue. This scene fell into Hun Tiandi's eyes, instantly enraging him.

Blood Fiend Heavenly Demon Palm!

He struck out abruptly. Dou Qi surged violently, condensing into a blood-colored palm print that slammed toward the female Flood Dragon.

Bang!

The male Flood Dragon's massive tail swept out like divine iron, shattering the blood-colored palm print. Intent to kill emerged on Hun Tiandi's refined face.

"Ah... Seven Luminaries Mystic Eyes!"

Suddenly, under extreme terror, Qing Yue abruptly raised her head. Those deep green eyes, translucent like jade, suddenly manifested seven black dots.

This time, the seven black dots seemed almost physical. They rotated slowly, sketching out a seven-leaf ring.

The center was a vortex like a black hole, radiating a terrifying devouring force.

Buzz!

Following that, this eerie deep green ring formed a massive black vortex that emerged from her eyes and shot forth.

It enveloped the female Flood Dragon in front of her.

Under the illumination of the deep green light, the female Flood Dragon's body trembled and became stiff. Its bloodthirsty giant eyes showed terror as it looked at the little girl in light green clothes.

Roar!

The eerie light held it fast, devouring the power within the female Flood Dragon's body. The energy vanished into the vortex and poured into Qing Yue's body.

Feeling the surging power within her, she activated her cultivation technique to refine the energy.

Following her meridians, it poured into the Dou Crystal within her Qi Cyclone.

"Taiqing Gale Technique, rotate!" She pushed it to the absolute limit. Because the energy within the female Flood Dragon was too vast, if she didn't refine it with all her strength, it would cause significant damage to her organs and body.

Crack!

An hour later, a shattering sound came from within Qing Yue's body. Her delicate frame trembled, and a powerful aura erupted from her. The rushing Hun Tiandi paused mid-stride.

Qing Yue broke through?

The male Flood Dragon looked at the screaming female Flood Dragon. An aura of explosive rage flickered all over it as it lunged toward Qing Yue.

"Not good, Qing Yue cannot be disturbed!"

Hun Tiandi made a quick judgment. With a thought, he activated the Thunder Emperor Art. He flipped his hand to draw his long blade, pouring lightning Dou Qi into it.

Swish!

An ear-piercing sound of breaking air rang out as he slashed down violently. Simultaneously, a massive amount of lightning poured forth.

Condensing into a lightning blade light, a vast amount of lightning flashed out, charging toward the male Flood Dragon.

Roar!

In the next moment, a large amount of lightning pierced through the male Flood Dragon's body. This was the lightning produced by the Thunder Emperor Art.

Boom...

The male Flood Dragon was enraged. It turned its head to pursue Hun Tiandi. Although this tiny human possessed Dragon Qi, he had provoked it—he deserved to die!

The third level of the Heavenly Demon Body Tempering Method—four times the strength surged forth.

He prepared his next strike. This time, Hun Tiandi channeled the Destruction Sword Intent he had comprehended into the emperor-slaying blade.

This was a strike of destruction. By preliminary estimation, this strike had the power of a Five-star Dou Wang.

Though it wasn't enough to kill the male Flood Dragon, his goal was to stall for time. Once Qing Yue finished devouring the female Flood Dragon, she could turn back and devour this one.

Half an hour later, Qing Yue had finished devouring the female Flood Dragon. Her strength had skyrocketed to the level of a Three-star Dou Wang, and her aura was extremely robust.

Swish!

Qing Yue stood up, her Dou Qi surging. Looking at the female Flood Dragon that had turned into a withered corpse, her expression went cold. Light green Dou Qi wings unfurled from her back, and with a slight flutter, she lunged toward the cold pond.

She grabbed the star grass, placed it into a jade box, and then stored it in her storage ring with a flick of her hand.

Her wings fluttered as she flew toward Hun Tiandi's direction.

Puchi!

The male Flood Dragon hissed. It opened its mouth and spat out a pillar of cold light, blasting it toward Hun Tiandi. Unable to dodge in time, he was hit and his body was sent flying backward.

He smashed heavily into the mountain rocks. Hun Tiandi spat out blood, and his long blade fell to the ground.

His entire body was in agonizing pain, as if he were falling apart.

"Sigh, the difference in strength is too great..." Hun Tiandi gave a bitter smile, spat out another mouthful of blood, and his aura became withered.
