Chapter 123 The Scorpion Poison Dragon Beast, Destroyed!

Chapter 123: Heavenly Scorpion Poison Dragon Beast, Slain!

The Heavenly Scorpion Poison Dragon Beast spread its hands and let out a loud, piercing roar toward the sky.

"Roar—"

As the roar spread, the earth suddenly began to shake violently once again.

Immediately after, a rustling sound, like giant pieces of cloth rubbing against each other, rang out.

Gu He's trio looked toward the source of the sound, only to see a black line sweeping in from the horizon like a tidal wave.

Soaring poison gas swirled above that black line, almost condensing into thick clouds of poison.

"Careful, those are all poison beasts from within the Fallen God Stream." Xiao Yi Xian's figure shifted, her cheeks slightly puffed, and she spoke with a grave expression.

The Heavenly Scorpion Poison Dragon Beast's figure moved slightly.

"As the ruler of this region, since you have stepped foot here, your lives will be decided by me!"

A sinister smile appeared on its face. Being an Eight-Star Dou Zong had made it cautious for a split second, but that negligible bit of care was quickly shattered by its desire for the Calamity Poison Body and Feng Qing'er's provocation.

Just like a local street thug giving a newcomer a warning.

Moreover, it was a beast of the Scorpion Dragon Clan.

In the world of Demonic Beasts, the Scorpion Dragon Clan was considered an extremely powerful tribe with quite a reputation; a thin trace of ancient Dragon Bloodline flowed through their bodies, which was the source of their confidence.

Furthermore, it had helpers!

Amidst the rumbling thunderous noise, countless poison beasts surged forward.

As the distance closed, Gu He and the others finally saw two figures standing on the back of the massive Demonic Beast leading the pack.

They were not just facing the Heavenly Scorpion Poison Dragon Beast!

"Foolish humans, you actually dare to intrude upon my leader's territory, you really don't know the meaning of death!"

An angry shout came from the stampeding herd of beasts.

Immediately following that, two sounds of rushing wind rapidly approached, and two figures appeared a hundred meters away from Gu He and the others.

The appearance of these two figures was exceptionally strange because their physiques were vastly different.

One person was as fat as a ball, making the ground shake with every step, while the other was as thin as skin and bones, like a bamboo pole.

A glint of sinister cunning flickered in their sunken eyes.

Gu He remained as steady as a mountain, offering a faint smile. "And so?"

"Get out of the Heavenly Scorpion Territory, or else—die!"

The Heavenly Scorpion Poison Dragon Beast behind them smiled coldly.

So what if you are an Eight-Star Dou Zong human? They had three!

In the moment Gu He held his breath, the Crimson Sky Sword flashed into his hand.

"You two deal with the beast tide, I'll take care of this side."

Xiao Yi Xian and Feng Qing'er nodded.

Seeing Gu He's figure rush forward like a ghost with his sword raised, the massive fat man first let out a roar.

His steps were like the earth shaking and mountains swaying as he charged toward Gu He like a small hill, preparing for a head-on collision.

The giant iron hammer he held in his hand brought a series of sonic booms as he charged, smashing fiercely toward Gu He's head.

Meanwhile, Gu He's Crimson Sky Sword slashed straight toward the fat man's waist.

To dodge, the fat man's giant hammer inevitably tilted.

At that moment, Gu He's figure had already flickered, circling behind the fat man. With a slight shift in his steps, one sword strike broke ten thousand laws!

Stone-Blue Flames, like embroidered clouds or a blue dragon, sliced through skin and internal organs.

The fat man's ball-like body shuddered all over.

"Hea... Heavenly Flame?"

Ordinary weapons could not possibly break through his defense! This man was actually a high-tier Alchemist and could even use Heavenly Flame techniques!

"Gan Hou, save me!"

The fat man hurriedly pressed against his wound and pulled away from Gu He's sword, roaring in pain as he endured the intense agony.

As the lowly plea for help rang out, the skeletal man's brow furrowed instantly. He clenched his fists, and two slender daggers slid from his hands.

His toes tapped lightly on the ground, and his figure vanished instantly, leaving only a blurred shadow as he shot toward Gu He.

Gu He swung his sword cleanly; the swordsmanship was like an impermanent clear radiance, and the verdant green of a cold mountain flashed by.

The two figures, one fat and one thin, turned to ash in an instant.

White powder drifted in the wind.

Not far away...

"Three Thousand Lightning Illusion Body!"

"Corrosive Poison Demonic Hand!"

"Boom boom boom—"

The two women's sharp attacks were like blades, and the Dou Qi fluctuations spread rapidly. Lightning and poison contacted the beast tide in an instant, acting like heavy shackles.

Immediately after, a series of shrill roars rang out, and the once-mighty beast tide began to fall into chaos.

Wisps of white smoke even began to rise from the bodies of some Demonic Beasts.

Feng Qing'er and Xiao Yi Xian glanced at each other, their eyes filled with their unique high spirits, their brows curving, and their eyelashes like a painting.

Green skirts fluttered slightly as a cool breeze brushed past.

Because of the descending beast tide, the sky over the Heavenly Scorpion Territory was as dark as spilled ink. At this time, Gu He stepped on the wind, cutting through the mist.

"Heavenly Scorpion Poison Dragon Beast, surrender. That way, you can die more cleanly."

He spoke indifferently, his voice carrying a hint of frost and pride.

As his voice fell, the Crimson Sky Sword swung out its residual power.

The beast tide scattered by Xiao Yi Xian and Feng Qing'er frantically scrambled under the assault of the blue Heavenly Flame.

Within moments, the beasts in the tide collapsed one after another. Even those Demonic Beasts that had developed intelligence and learned to dodge could not escape in time; they made "chi chi" sounds and turned to ash in an instant, dissipating into the air.

Looking at the tragic scene that had fallen into chaos in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the Heavenly Scorpion Poison Dragon Beast let out two cold laughs.

"Surrender? Hmph! In your dreams!"

"This King will never surrender!"

"Besides... you humans are truly shameless!"

"Killing to steal treasures, killing beasts to take their belongings—how can you speak with such self-righteousness??"

Gu He toyed with the tassel on the Crimson Sky Sword with his free hand. Faint fire-attribute energy, like mischievous little spirits, wound around his fingertips and danced cutely.

His tone was calm: "Don't use that victim narrative on me."

"If you were in a human's position, you would only be more ruthless than I am."

"Bestial nature is hard to restrain."

The Heavenly Scorpion Poison Dragon Beast snorted, unable to refute him.

A sharp hiss erupted from its throat, and its body instantly expanded and unfolded, transforming into a hideous giant beast nearly a thousand feet large in the blink of an eye.

It raised its head toward the poison cloud condensed from the poison gas of the ten thousand dead beasts, and a powerful suction force suddenly surged out.

"Scorpion Dragon Devouring the Heavens!"

Devouring the heavens? You're dreaming!

Gu He swung his sword, and the poison cloud was instantly tainted by a massive Heavenly Flame shot from the sharp blade. Like a balloon pricked by a needle, it vanished in the blink of an eye.

"Fuck!"

The Heavenly Scorpion Poison Dragon Beast was beyond furious. Because of Gu He's Heavenly Flame, the poison cloud it could absorb was pitifully small.

It was now completely trembling; it had already felt the gap in their strength.

At first, it thought they were lambs to the slaughter delivered to its door, then it found the situation was a bit beyond its imagination, and now it was completely—

"The weasel paying a New Year's visit to the chicken—up to no good!"

They had come for the life of the Heavenly Scorpion Poison Dragon Beast from the very beginning!

It had already begun to regret. How could it have provoked such a figure? If it had known, it wouldn't have dared to covet that Calamity Poison Body!

"Yamas Judgment!"

Gu He snorted coldly and swung his sword heavily. A red glow suddenly appeared, and the stone-blue Heavenly Flame, like a cloud python, wrapped around the red sword aura and shot straight out.

Yamas Judgment, a fight to the death!!
