174: Heat oil in a wok

The egg was about half a person tall. Its shell wasn't the usual earthy yellow or grayish-brown of ordinary demon beast eggs, but instead shimmered with a faint silver-blue luster. Fine thunder patterns were intricately wound across its surface, exuding a thunderous aura identical to that of the Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon, and even faintly pulsing with a Demon God Bloodline more pure than the mother dragon's.

This egg contained the Demon God Bloodline!

"So that's how it is."

Fang Bai suddenly realized. The Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon had deliberately held back its strength and even took the initiative to show weakness because it was afraid the battle would affect this egg!

It actually laid an egg... Fang Bai's expression became quite peculiar.

The Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon, which had been sent flying, suddenly flickered and stood in front of the egg. Most of the killing intent in its Crimson vertical pupils faded, replaced by extreme vigilance and a trace of indiscernible panic: "Human, do not touch it!"

Fang Bai glanced at it and said, "Is this the offspring born between you and that Demon Lord?"

The Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon said in a deep voice, "Correct."

Fang Bai's eyes lit up: "Very good! Excellent!"

The aura on the Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon became increasingly dangerous. It seemed to see that this human had no intention of letting them go at all!

No, wait, this isn't right.

Normally, shouldn't the opponent feel pity upon seeing it protecting its child and let them off?

Fang Bai said eerily, "An egg with the Demon God Bloodline... I wonder how it tastes?"

Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon: ???

Hearing such beastly words, the Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon was instantly enraged: "Human! This King will not let you have your way!"

Fang Bai sneered: "You didn't think I'd let you go, did you? In your dreams! I'm no saint!"

After saying that, Fang Bai released his domain. Under the coverage of his dual domains, a terrifying Dark Demon Thunder pressure swept through the area!

A fierce light erupted in the Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon's eyes. It let out a roar, and the chains binding it actually began to show dense cracks at this moment!

These chains were used by the Demon Lord to imprison it, but if the Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon truly wanted to break free, it could be done.

At this moment, this Demon King was frantically burning its energy. After a dozen breaths, the surrounding iron chains shattered one after another!

And the pressure from the Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon at this moment was not at all weaker than a peak seventh rank!

A trace of solemnity appeared in Fang Bai's eyes.

It looked like this beast was going to fight for its life... "Human! Die!"

The Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon roared and pounced. The shattered iron chain fragments were swept up by silver lightning and shot toward Fang Bai like a torrential rain, each piece carrying a sharp whistle that tore through the air.

silver lightning surged around it, and thunder arcs wound around its dragon claws. The tips of its claws even shimmered with a faint blood-red color due to the extremely compressed thunder power. This was a killing move it used by burning its Demon God Bloodline!

Fang Bai did not dare to be careless. The Dark Demon Thunder domain suddenly contracted, turning the three-foot radius around him into a purple-black Thunder Prison.

The iron chain fragments crashed into the Thunder Prison and were instantly ground into powder by the purple lightning. However, the Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon's claws followed immediately after, striking with a force that could destroy heaven and earth!

Clang!

Fang Bai didn't hold back at all. He condensed a Purple Thunder spear and thrust it forward. The moment the spear and claws collided, a terrifying energy shockwave blasted several deep trenches into the stone floor, sending rubble flying everywhere like cannonballs.

Fang Bai felt his arm go numb and the skin between his thumb and forefinger split. He retreated over a dozen steps before stabilizing himself!

Even though he had forcibly weakened the opponent's strength, it was still terrifyingly powerful!

After breaking its shackles, the Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon's strength had truly reached the threshold of a peak seventh rank!

The Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon also suffered backlash. Its massive body cracked, and blood flowed freely!

"You think you're tough just because you broke the chains?"

Fang Bai wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, but a stronger fighting spirit burned in his eyes: "Just as well, it saves Brother Fang from thinking you're too restricted!"

Before his voice had even faded, purple lightning surged around him. Dark Demon Thunder and ordinary lightning intertwined, transforming into dozens of thunder snakes that lunged at the Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon. Simultaneously, ten Clones rushed out from the curtain of lightning, each holding a Purple Thunder weapon and attacking the opponent's weak points.

The Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon did not dodge or avoid. It condensed a Silver Thunderball in its mouth that was three times larger than before and spat it out! The Silver Thunderball collided with the swarm of Purple Thunder snakes and instantly exploded. The terrifying thunderbolt storm actually swallowed all the Clones at once, and even Fang Bai's original body was shaken until his blood surged.

"Damn it!"

Fang Bai suppressed the metallic taste in his throat, his face turning pale.

Is this the terrifying nature of the Demon God Bloodline?

If the opponent were just a simple late seventh rank peak, he wouldn't fear it at all. But this beast possessed a trace of the Demon God Bloodline, making every single attack extremely overbearing!

The Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon stared intently at him: "Even though you are Dual-Element, you are only at the mid-seventh rank. You are no match for me! Today, you shall remain here and become this King's nourishment!"

Fang Bai sneered: "So damn confident! Then come and try!"

The Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon snorted coldly, and a powerful force blasted toward Fang Bai!

The latter kept dodging while releasing Dark Demon Thunder to counterattack!

Both were masters of the lightning attribute, and their battle was extremely intense!

However, just as they were locked in a fierce struggle, the Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon's expression suddenly changed drastically: "Not good!"

The corner of Fang Bai's mouth curled up: "Only realizing now?"

The Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon whipped around, only to see a pitch-black figure standing beside the dragon egg.

It was precisely Fang Bai's Clone!

"Stop!"

Clone Fang Bai gave a wicked smile, then directly stowed the dragon egg away!

He looked at the Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon and made an international hand gesture.

Swish!

silver lightning enveloped him, ruthlessly blasting him into oblivion!

Amidst the explosion, a wisp of dark power flowed back into Fang Bai's original body. He chuckled: "This Young Master isn't playing with you anymore. Bye-bye!"

After saying that, he turned and ran!

Originally, he had wanted to kill the opponent, but Fang Bai had indeed underestimated a Demon King with the Demon God Bloodline. If they continued fighting, it would be difficult for him to kill it.

"Roar!"

The Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon was now furious. Its terrifying roar cracked the surrounding walls!

It chased directly after Fang Bai!

The latter simply blasted the passage apart, causing countless boulders to collapse and block the entrance!

However, after a dozen or so breaths, the Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon broke through the obstruction and rushed to the entrance of the cave dwelling!

But the scene was already empty; there was no sign of that human!

"Ang!"

The Silver-Scaled Thunder Dragon let out a shrill roar. A violent pressure swept out, and the nearby demon beasts immediately trembled with eyes full of fear.

Who had provoked the Demon King again?

As for Fang Bai, he had already run far away. Hearing the roar behind him, he grinned: "Wait until I taste your child, then I'll come back to roast you!"

Eventually, Fang Bai found a relatively secluded place.

He stood on high ground, his gaze falling into the distance, his eyes narrowing.

"It looks like the great battle has ended!"

The retreat of the Demon Beast Army meant the campaign had come to a temporary close.

Fang Bai didn't think much more about it. He directly found a mountain cave, lit the stove, and heated the oil!
