"According to the Zhao clan's information, there are seven portions. Most of them are still sealed in the Guiquan Heavenly Corroding Water within the Black Pool because of the illusion technique. A few more of unknown quantity are scattered throughout the Spirit Ruins Mystic Realm. Some were obtained by the Snowland Demon Deer. Since this Snowland Demon Deer successfully advanced to Spirit Transformation, after all these years, with its methods and strength, it might well have collected another portion of the Dragon Essence." Lu Xiaotian quickly thought of this possibility. As he and Xiang Kuang fled, he transmitted his thoughts to him.
"Most likely. That demon deer's Dragon Essence was sucked away by the dragon bone back then, greatly weakening it. To be able to fight a Spirit Transformation Patriarch after such a short time, there's no other explanation besides having absorbed another portion of Dragon Essence and recovered its injuries!" Xiang Kuang nodded in agreement with Lu Xiaotian's analysis.
"It's just that without the dragon bone restraining it, this Snowland Demon Deer has actually grown so powerful!"
As Lu Xiaotian and Xiang Kuang exchanged words, they fled for their lives. In all their years, this was the first time they had witnessed Spirit Transformation monsters battling. Wherever the fighting reached, the ice cavern collapsed in its wake, mountains crumbling and the earth splitting. When the Nascent Soul experts of the various races had surrounded the giant deer earlier, the glacier's collapse had been a mere apprentice compared with the spectacle before them.
The ice and stone collapsing over a wide area turned to powder beneath the battle between the Spirit Transformation monsters.
Lu Xiaotian and Xiang Kuang sprinted madly onward. Yet when Spirit Transformation Patriarchs fought, in the blink of an eye they had already moved several miles away.
