Thousand-Year Swift Electric Dragon

The father and son continued deeper in, but along the way, aside from other soul beasts, they did not see even the shadow of a Swift Electric Dragon.

Yu Mingfeng comforted him. "Don't be impatient, Tianlin. Searching for soul beasts requires patience."

"Because the Swift Electric Dragon is the best source for our Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect soul masters' First Soul Ring, they're hunted heavily, so it's normal for their numbers to be a bit scarce. But the age limit for the First Soul Ring is four hundred twenty-three years. As long as a Swift Electric Dragon's cultivation exceeds that age, no one will be interested in it."

"Once we go a little deeper and enter the area where Thousand Year Soul Beasts are active, we'll be able to find a Swift Electric Dragon of the right age very soon."

"Mm."

Yu Tianlin answered casually. In truth, he did not feel all that impatient, but since his dad wanted to comfort him, he could only play along.

The two of them advanced for another half hour, and the view ahead suddenly opened up.

Yu Mingfeng was no longer as relaxed as before. He looked at Yu Tianlin with a solemn expression and said in a low voice, "Tianlin, we've now more or less left the outermost edge of Thunderbolt Canyon. It'll be somewhat dangerous here from now on. A Thousand Year Soul Beast could jump out at any moment, and even a Ten Thousand Year Soul Beast is possible. From now on, don't leave a range of more than twenty meters from me. Do you hear me?"

"I'll definitely be careful!"

Yu Tianlin nodded heavily.

After experiencing the encounter with the Ten Thousand Year Lightning Wing Dragon, Yu Tianlin paid special attention to matters of safety. He would not go fooling around in a place where soul beasts were active just because he had a Soul Sage for a dad.

As the saying went, it was not the odds you feared, but the one-in-a-million chance. If a powerful soul beast suddenly jumped out and he just so happened to be too far from his dad, wouldn't he be done for?

Just as the two of them were about to continue forward, a rustling sound rang out.

"Come here! Something's happening!"

Yu Mingfeng barked softly, reached out, and pulled Yu Tianlin to his side, then fixed a burning gaze on the direction the sound had come from.

The soul beasts encountered here were at least Thousand Year Level, their strength firmly above Yu Tianlin's, so when he heard a soul beast approaching, he immediately activated his martial soul.

Yu Mingfeng did the same.

The sound of the soul beast moving grew louder and louder. It was clearly approaching quickly. A moment later, a figure crawling along the ground entered Yu Tianlin's sight.

This soul beast looked like a lizard. Its body was about five meters long, and its four limbs were even thicker than an adult's thighs.

The lizard soul beast was covered all over in a layer of dark brown scales, but many of the scales on its back were shattered, and bright red blood kept flowing out. It looked as if it had suffered very serious injuries.

Looking at the lizard soul beast before them, Yu Mingfeng said in a low voice, "It's a Dark Thunder Lizard. It's coming at us!"

Although he did not know why this Dark Thunder Lizard, already so badly injured, still wanted to attack the two of them, Yu Mingfeng was too lazy to think about it and prepared to make a move.

But just then, a sudden change occurred.

"Roar!"

A dragon's roar came from the distance. Yu Tianlin immediately saw a streak of lightning sweep past and strike the Dark Thunder Lizard in front of them.

The lightning was extremely fast. Before Yu Tianlin could see it clearly, it had already smashed directly into the Dark Thunder Lizard's back, then exploded.

The Dark Thunder Lizard's already wounded back suffered another heavy blow. Blood instantly gushed out, and the Dark Thunder Lizard let out a powerless, mournful cry. Then its four limbs went limp, and it collapsed to the ground.

A purple soul ring slowly emerged. It seemed the Dark Thunder Lizard was completely dead.

Although Yu Tianlin had not seen that streak of lightning clearly, Yu Mingfeng had.

That streak of lightning had clearly been claw-shaped.

Combining it with the dragon's roar from earlier, Yu Mingfeng quickly made a judgment. "That was Lightning Claw, the signature skill of the Swift Electric Dragon!"

"Tianlin, our luck isn't bad. This Dark Thunder Lizard was five meters long, with a cultivation of just over one thousand years, yet it was killed by a Swift Electric Dragon's Lightning Claw. That means this Swift Electric Dragon's cultivation is at least above one thousand five hundred years."

As soon as Yu Mingfeng finished speaking, a blue-purple soul beast charged over to the Dark Thunder Lizard's corpse and glared viciously at the two people before it.

This soul beast's appearance was extremely similar to the velociraptors Yu Tianlin had seen in Jurassic Park in his previous life, but their sizes differed quite a bit.

The Swift Electric Dragon before them was around nine meters long. It stood on two hind legs that, while not especially thick, were long and well-proportioned; one glance was enough to tell it would run very fast. Its forelimbs, meanwhile, were constantly curled in front of its body, with three finger-claws growing from them, incomparably sharp.

"Nine meters long... No, not quite nine meters, just extremely close!" As he sized up the Swift Electric Dragon before him, Yu Mingfeng's eyes grew brighter and brighter. "For a Swift Electric Dragon, one meter corresponds to two hundred years. With its current body length, its cultivation should be extremely close to one thousand eight hundred years. Tianlin, it's perfect for you!"

Thousand Year Level soul beasts did not possess much intelligence, so the Swift Electric Dragon did not know what the seven soul rings on Yu Mingfeng represented. It only vaguely sensed the pressure emanating from them.

"This Swift Electric Dragon probably came out to hunt, chose the Dark Thunder Lizard, then chased it all over until it just happened to run into us." Yu Mingfeng smiled. "Tianlin, watch Dad help you catch it."

As he spoke, Yu Mingfeng slowly approached the Swift Electric Dragon in front of him. Yu Tianlin kept his dad's words firmly in mind and followed closely behind him, not moving too far away.

"Roar!"

Yu Mingfeng's approach made the Swift Electric Dragon feel uneasy, but it was also reluctant to give up the prey it had gone to such trouble to kill, so it roared at Yu Mingfeng as a warning.

However, Yu Mingfeng did not care about the Swift Electric Dragon's warning at all and continued approaching. When he was about ten meters away from it, the Swift Electric Dragon finally could not hold back and struck first!

A Thousand Year Level soul beast daring to attack a Soul Sage could only be called the fearlessness of ignorance.

Lightning flickered over the Swift Electric Dragon's front claws, instantly condensing into the shape of claws before shooting toward Yu Mingfeng like lightning.

Though the Swift Electric Dragon was fast, Yu Mingfeng was faster.

Amid the swirling lightning, Yu Mingfeng controlled the degree of his own dragon transformation. Only his arms swelled by a size, becoming covered in blue-purple Dragon Scales.

After the Double Arm Dragon Transformation, Yu Mingfeng placed his right arm in front of him to defend against the Lightning Claw shooting toward him, while his First Soul Ring lit up. A Thunderbolt Dragon Claw condensed at his left hand, and he repaid the Swift Electric Dragon in kind, slapping it toward the Swift Electric Dragon.

After the Swift Electric Dragon's Lightning Claw struck Yu Mingfeng's dragon-transformed right arm, it exploded directly. But Yu Mingfeng swung his right arm, tearing the lightning apart in the blink of an eye without being affected in the slightest.

The Thunderbolt Dragon Claw Yu Mingfeng released swiftly crossed the ten-meter distance and struck the Swift Electric Dragon's right leg. Under the impact, it actually did not explode; instead, it chopped the right leg clean off at the root!
