The Snow Flood Dragon's Might
Seeing even the spirit beast Snow Flood Dragon appear, everyone could imagine that Bing Chengzi must have been driven to desperation. This further solidified everyone's belief in Yan Zhuixing's actions.
Someone clicked their tongue and said, "Bing Chengzi has even pulled out his most treasured possessions. It seems he has no choice but to save Yan Zhuixing!"
Seeing Bing Chengzi pass by, the five Nascent Spirit Transformation stage were slightly taken aback, then their expressions changed. Yin Baikang roared, "Bing Chengzi, don't you dare leave!"
Without a word, the five figures flashed, five afterimages rapidly giving chase. A group of people perched on the treetops of the Hengduan Mountains watched with bated breath; if these six were to fight, it would be quite a spectacle. Someone shouted, "Let's go, everyone follow and see!"
In an instant, a group of Spirit Transformation stage experts flashed into the air and gave chase.
"Snow Flood Dragon, stop them!" Bing Chengzi shouted without turning his head, and continued flying rapidly.
"Moo!" The sound echoed through the heavens and earth, like the bellowing of a cow. The Snow Flood Dragon whipped its tail and flew swiftly, its body swaying and turning in the air, its agility truly like that of a dragon.
The snow-white, gleaming armor darted and weaved through the air at incredible speed, almost too fast to see clearly, like a dragon soaring through the sky. In an instant, it hovered still, its crimson eyes gleaming as it stared at its pursuers. Its translucent, antler-like antlers reflected magnificent colors in the sunlight.
"Moo!" The resounding sound echoed again. A cloud of white mist burst forth from its horns, instantly becoming so thick it blotted out the sky, and began to swirl rapidly in the air. The Snow Flood Dragon opened its blood-red maw, its long tongue flicking out, and with a "whoosh," it exhaled a breath of icy air. The dense white mist suddenly condensed into ice blades, sweeping towards the pursuers.
Others might be afraid, but the five Spirit Transformation stage experts were no match for it. A transparent protective Gang Qi quickly formed around their bodies, their speed undiminished, as the ice blades struck them with a series of clanging sounds, forcibly passing through – a truly formidable feat.
Having received its master's orders, the Snow Flood Dragon would not give up after its first attack failed. With a flick of its long tail, it fearlessly charged towards the five people, accompanied by faint wind and clouds, its speed far exceeding when it flew with Bing Chengzi.
Flying Dragon, a white phantom—its aura was truly astonishing! The group of people chasing from afar quickly stopped. Fearing this beast might be reckless and start a fight, they decided to let the five experts handle it first.
"You audacious beast!" Qi Jiujun flew at the forefront, bearing the brunt of the attack. With a fierce shout, the Ruler of All appeared in his hand without him noticing, bursting forth with golden light, and slammed down angrily at the Snow Flood Dragon that was charging directly at him.
With a loud clang, the Ruler of All and the Snow Flood Dragon's crystalline horns collided. The impact sent Qi Jiujun flying hundreds of meters. The Snow Flood Dragon was also knocked down nearly a hundred meters, but it instantly darted back.
The other four were startled and took the matter seriously, each drawing their magical treasures. Clearly, none of them had expected this beast to be so ferocious. Qi Jiujun's Ruler of Ruler of All Power was immense and always formidable. Unexpectedly, in terms of strength, Qi Jiujun seemed slightly inferior; truly worthy of being a spirit beast of heaven and earth!
Without pausing, the long white shadow pounced on the other four people. Judging by its appearance, it seemed to want to take on all four at once.
The four of them were quite annoyed. If four experts at the late Spirit Transformation stage couldn't handle a spirit beast, wouldn't people laugh themselves to death if word got out?
"You beast, you're courting death! Hundred Blade Slash!" Pei Fang roared. The Snow Flood Dragon actually charged at him, which seemed to be taking advantage of his missing arm. Otherwise, why would it choose him, who was standing in the middle? The Blue Face Demon Blade in his left hand flickered and a hundred blue blade shadows slashed at the Snow Flood Dragon's head with First Company of clanging sounds.
The other three weren't idle either, their figures flashing swiftly, like dragons being bound in the sky. Two dazzling sword shadows, like lightning, pierced the Snow Flood Dragon's body. Brilliant sparks flew in the bright daylight. Qi Jiujun, who had flashed in, gripped the Ruler of All with both hands and smashed it down on the Snow Flood Dragon's head again, accompanied by a thunderous roar—a loud "bang!"
"Moo..." Another earth-shattering moo echoed from the cow, but this time it carried a hint of agony. Indeed, five experts at the late Spirit Transformation stage joining forces against a Snow Flood Dragon only equivalent to the mid Spirit Transformation stage—it would be strange if it could gain the upper hand!
However, this Snow Flood Dragon is really tough and thick-skinned; you can hardly see any scars on its exterior.
Just as the Snow Flood Dragon's body began to fall, a phantom figure gave chase. It was Ouyang Da, Desperate Twin Claws had already protected his arms and palms. With a "crack," the two ferocious, jet-black claws locked onto the Snow Flood Dragon's tail.
"What are you all hesitating for? Stop Bing Chengzi!" Ouyang Da roared, grabbing the falling Snow Flood Dragon's tail and spinning it rapidly. He swung the thick, long Snow Flood Dragon around like a windmill.
The four were slightly taken aback, then immediately slipped away without hesitation to continue chasing Bing Chengzi.
The Snow Flood Dragon, tens of meters long and as thick as a bucket, whirred and spun into a giant white disc. Ouyang Da exhaled and yelled "Hai!" before swinging the Snow Flood Dragon down into the deep mountains. A white shadow was seen spinning as it was thrown into the vast wilderness, followed by a pile of fallen trees and a loud bang.
Ouyang Da glanced down and sneered, "You ignorant beasts!" He then quickly chased after the group ahead.
It all happened in just a few moments, yet it left the group behind them looking at each other in bewilderment. They didn't know if the spirit beast was dead or not, but to be attacked by five late Spirit Transformation stage experts working together, even if it died, it wouldn't have died unjustly.
A group of people flew into the air and examined the motionless white body in the crater, all showing expressions of regret. Having been beaten like that by five experts at the late Spirit Transformation stage, it was probably crippled, if not dead. There was no time to pay attention to it now; they glanced at it and then disappeared.
Bing Chengzi also heard Snow Flood Dragon's scream, a flicker of heartache crossing his face. However, his expression hardened immediately, and he didn't slow down. With Snow Flood Dragon blocking his way, it was impossible for those behind him to catch up, buying him crucial time to reach Yan Zhuixing and his disciples ahead of time. The fighting ahead was intense; he could already see it...
The four members of the Man Hu, who were fleeing through the mountains, stopped three of them when they heard the mooing sound, which sounded like a cow's bellow. Yan Zhuixing, who had rushed ahead, stopped and turned around, asking in surprise, "Everyone, hurry up! What's wrong with you?"
"Is that the cry of Snow Flood Dragon?" the Fifth Brother asked in disbelief. Snow Flood Dragon never descended from the Great Snow Mountain, so how could they appear here?
"Master is here! Master has arrived! Master has brought the Snow Flood Dragon down the mountain!" Seventh Brother couldn't help but cheer.
Yan Zhuixing looked at Man Hu with a questioning gaze, and the latter nodded seriously and said, "That's right, Master should have arrived."
No sooner had they finished speaking than they heard a rapid, loud crash from the sky ahead, followed by the screams of the Snow Flood Dragon. The four brothers' expressions changed, and before they could recover, they felt a violent tremor beneath their feet. A loud bang echoed from the forest ahead.
"Let's go take a look!" Man Hu waved his hand, and the three of them immediately followed.
When they arrived at the scene, they saw a patch of fallen trees and a deep crater in the ground. The group gathered around the crater and saw Snow Flood Dragon inside, shaking its head repeatedly, its chin covered in blood, clearly injured.
"Snow Flood Dragon, what's wrong?" The Seventh Brother was the first to jump down and patted Snow Flood Dragon's head.
Snow Flood Dragon must have recognized Seventh Brother's voice too, for it let out a weak "moo" and continued shaking its head. It seemed to have been dizzy from being turned around and hadn't recovered yet.
The others jumped down, but Yan Zhuixing remained speechless, staring at the enormous creature below. He had never seen such a gigantic python with horns on its head before. Was it even a snake?
Amidst the concerned murmurs of the group, and after a short while, the Snow Flood Dragon stopped shaking its head, and its red eyes began to dart around. Looking at the four people before it, it affectionately licked them with its tongue. However, upon seeing Yan Zhuixing above, it immediately revealed hostility, its upper body tensing slightly, seemingly preparing to attack.
"It's one of us." Seventh Brother patted its head, and the Snow Flood Dragon finally calmed down.
"Where is Master?" Man Hu asked, frowning.
The Snow Flood Dragon was startled, seemingly remembering its master. It darted out of the pit with a "whoosh" and mooed at the group below. As soon as the four senior brothers flew out, they saw the Snow Flood Dragon stretch out its body and immediately mounted it. The Man Hu beckoned to Yan Zhuixing and said, "Young Palace Lord, come on up."
Yan Zhuixing paused for a moment, then, without further hesitation, mounted the snow dragon. Man Hu patted the Snow Flood Dragon's body, and the Snow Flood Dragon, carrying the group, shot into the air with a "whoosh," instantly soaring high above the sky.
The wind and clouds rushed past his ears, Yan Zhuixing was secretly astonished. This large white python with horns on its head was carrying four people and flying faster than they could fly on their own. Could this be the legendary spirit beast?
Bing Chengzi, who was flying at high speed, was slightly taken aback. He saw that there were hundreds of cultivators in the early Spirit Transformation stage fighting in the air in front of him.
What does that mean? This thought flashed through Bing Chengzi, and he immediately realized a possibility: Yan Zhuixing had already fallen into their hands, and everyone was trying to take him away.
"Mysterious Yin Palm!" Bing Chengzi rushed over and, in a fit of rage, unleashed a palm strike at a group of people, with hundreds of palm shadows crashing down with a "boom".
"Bang bang bang... Ahhh..." A group of people, blinded by rage, were hit by the attacks. Dozens of people fell downwards, dazed and confused.
"Bing Chengzi is here!" someone shouted. Actually, no warning was needed; those who hadn't been hit were already terrified by the power of the Mysterious Yin Palm. They had long since stopped fighting and used teleportation to dodge far away.
A disheveled and exhausted Sikong Jue stood in the air a short distance away, sword in hand. The World Commerce Association had suffered heavy losses this time; he himself had almost lost his life. He had never experienced such a chaotic battle before, and was utterly exhausted! It seemed everyone was more interested in targeting the World Commerce Association members; he was quite fortunate to have survived this long.
Sikong Jue glanced at the furious Bing Chengzi, his disheveled face shifting between anger and uncertainty. He thought to himself, "Where are Master and the others? Which direction did Bing Chengzi come from? Could it be that all those people couldn't stop Bing Chengzi?"
