Slaying the Red Fire Flood Dragon (No More Today)

Outer Sea, a stretch of azure water.

A deafening explosion came from high above, and a huge, bright red mushroom cloud shot into the sky.

A Golden Escape Light shot out from within, revealing a portly old man in a golden robe. The old man looked flustered, his left arm was missing, and there were burn marks on his body.

A deafening dragon's roar came from behind, and hundreds of Giant Fireball shot towards the golden-robed elder.

The old man in the golden robe quickly summoned a Banner Flag that shimmered with golden light, and cast a spell into it. The golden Banner Flag instantly expanded, and a golden tornado a hundred feet high swept out to meet it.

With a series of loud booms, Giant Fireball exploded in the sky, scattering flames in all directions.

A massive Crimson Flood Dragon emerged from the flames and lunged at the golden-robed elder.

Just then, a crimson light appeared, and a burly young man in red robes appeared, with a pair of wings on his back that shimmered with red light.

The young man in the red shirt held a Red Long Staff in his hand; it was none other than Shen Long, who had changed his appearance.

After eliminating Yin Shan and Liu Mei, he rushed to Purple Coral Marketplace, made a public appearance, visited the Nascent Soul Cultivator of the Han family, and inquired about news.

He stayed in the Marketplace for three days, then changed his appearance and left the Inner Sea, teleported to the Outer Sea, and headed to the area where Song He and the others encountered the fourth-tier Flood Dragon, searching everywhere.

Shen Long searched for over a month without encountering a fourth-tier Red Fire Flood Dragon. Just when he was about to give up, he discovered that the Red Fire Flood Dragon was killing Nascent Soul Cultivator, and he decisively took action.

When the Red Fire Flood Dragon saw Shen Long blocking its path, it flew into a rage and swung its right claw at Shen Long. If it were to hit Shen Long, even a Heaven-Propping Giant Peak would be smashed to pieces.

Shen Long swung his Li Fire Staff to meet the attack. The Li Fire Staff collided with the Red Fire Flood Dragon's sharp claws, producing a metallic clang, and the Red Fire Flood Dragon was sent flying backward.

The old man in the golden robe was stunned, his face filled with disbelief.

"Fellow Daoist, you want to reap the benefits? Leave here immediately, or don't blame me for being impolite."

Shen Long said in a deep voice.

Yin Shan and Liu Mei wanted to harm Shen Long, so Shen Long eliminated them. He had no grudge against the old man in the golden robe and would not harm him.

"Fellow Daoist, be careful, this Red Fire Flood Dragon possesses considerable Divine Ability."

The old man in the golden robe gave a word of advice, then transformed into a Golden Escape Light and disappeared at great speed.

Shen Long opened his Divine Sense wide and detected no other cultivators within a radius of three hundred miles.

With a flick of his wrist, the Ice Flood Dragon, the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove, and the Iron Tail Scorpion flew out of the Spirit Beast Bracelet and pounced on the Red Fire Flood Dragon.

The Ice Flood Dragon roared to the sky and pounced on the Red Fire Flood Dragon.

Shen Long flipped his right hand, a flash of purple light appeared, and the Purple Pupil Bead appeared in his hand. He activated the Purple Pupil Bead with all his might, and could clearly see the situation four hundred miles away, ensuring that no other cultivators were coming.

One of the Ghost Dove's heads emitted a beam of azure light, which transformed into a hundred-foot-tall Cyan Tornado that rushed straight towards the Red Fire Flood Dragon.

The Red Fire Flood Dragon spewed out a Red Sound Wave, shattering the Cyan Tornado. Hundreds of Giant Ice Blade flew over and struck the Red Fire Flood Dragon one after another, producing muffled "clanging" sounds, like tickling. No marks were visible on the Red Fire Flood Dragon's body.

A Giant Ice Blade burst forth with blinding white light, and Ice Flood Dragon appeared, spewing out icy breath as it clashed with the Red Fire Flood Dragon.

The dragon's roar continued, and red and white lights shone in the sky. Although both were at the early stage of the fourth rank, the Ice Flood Dragon was clearly superior.

Before long, the Red Fire Flood Dragon was defeated, and many of its dragon scales fell off its body, revealing its gleaming armor. The Ice Flood Dragon, on the other hand, was unharmed, its body covered by a white ice armor.

Knowing it was no match for the Red Fire Flood Dragon spewed out a thick stream of Crimson Flame, which landed on the Ice Flood Dragon's body, causing a puff of white smoke to rise. However, the Ice Flood Dragon's body soon emitted a bright white light, and the flames dissipated.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Red Fire Flood Dragon lunged towards the sea surface, intending to escape into the ocean depths.

A gust of wind blew by, and the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove appeared above the Red Fire Flood Dragon's head. Each of its four heads emitted a beam of blue light, enveloping the Red Fire Flood Dragon's body. The Red Fire Flood Dragon trembled, struggled violently, and let out a deafening dragon roar, attempting to escape the spell's range of the blue light.

The Ice Flood Dragon spewed out a thick beam of white light, which landed on the sea surface. The seawater instantly froze, and the ice layer spread rapidly, freezing the sea surface within a radius of a hundred miles, creating a Glacier.

The Nine-Headed Ghost Dove's sharp claws landed on the Red Fire Flood Dragon's body. The Red Fire Flood Dragon's massive body crashed onto the Glacier, cracking the Glacier layer and creating many thick, long cracks.

The Red Fire Flood Dragon struggled violently, and a Miniature Flood Dragon Miniature Flood Dragon could be seen on its body, seemingly trying to leave its body.

A sharp, piercing screech rang out, and the Red Fire Flood Dragon's head slumped, becoming dizzy and disoriented. The Miniature Flood Dragon was drawn out by the blue light and swallowed by the Nine-Headed Ghost Dove.

The Red Fire Flood Dragon perished!

Shen Long showed an approving expression. The Nine-Headed Ghost Dove was indeed Ancient Great Demon. Even without the help of the Iron Tail Scorpion and the Ice Flood Dragon, it could still deal with the Red Fire Flood Dragon. It just wouldn't have been so easy.

"Someone's coming! Come back quickly!"

Shen Long gave the order, and put away the corpse of the Red Fire Flood Dragon, as well as the Li Fire Staff.

The Nine-Headed Ghost Dove, the Ice Flood Dragon, and the Iron Tail Scorpion all flew back into the Spirit Beast Bracelet, and Shen Long stood in mid-air.

Not long after, a Red Escape Light appeared on the distant horizon, then stopped in a flash, revealing a flying boat with constantly flowing red light. A tall old man in a blue robe and a graceful woman in a red dress stood on the Red Flying Boat.

"Flying Spirit Treasure!"

A look of surprise flashed in Shen Long.

The old man in blue robes glanced around, frowned, and clasped his hands in greeting, saying, "I Wei Hai, fellow Daoist, where is that fourth-tier Red Fire Flood Dragon!"

"Fellow Daoist Wei and Fairy Zhao arrived too late; I have already killed this dragon."

Shen Long spoke calmly, as if he were talking about a trivial matter.

He did not recognize the two Nascent Soul Cultivator, but he had seen their portraits.

The old man in blue robes is True Monarch Ten Thousand Waves, Wei Tianming is a descendant of True Monarch Ten Thousand Waves, the lady in red dress is Fairy Red Plum, Red Flying Boat is the flying Spirit Treasure Mystic Fire Boat. They are all one of the Ten Immortals of the North Sea.

"What! He was killed by you, Your Excellency?"

True Monarch Ten Thousand Waves was utterly shocked.

Fairy Red Plum was dumbfounded. They had received news that a fourth-tier Red Fire Flood Dragon had appeared here, and they had come specifically to eliminate the dragon. The Red Fire Flood Dragon was actually killed by a Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivator.

"What? Is there a problem?"

Shen Long said calmly.

"No problem, may I ask your name, friend?"

True Monarch Ten Thousand Waves said politely.

"This humble sister, Zhao Mei, greets fellow Daoist."

The Fairy Red Plum bowed deeply and introduced herself.

"My surname is Long. I have urgent business to attend to, so I won't stay any longer. Farewell."

After saying this, Shen Long transformed into a streak of Red Escape Light and disappeared into the sky.

True Monarch Ten Thousand Waves hesitated, then took no action and let Shen Long leave.

"Fellow Daoist Wei, you actually didn't stop this person? Don't you want the Flood Dragon Essence Blood?"

The Fairy Red Plum said with a smile.

"Hmph, this person was able to kill a fourth-tier Red Fire Flood Dragon all by Divine Ability being. Look at his condition; he doesn't seem to have gone through a fierce battle at all. His Divine Sense is exceptionally strong; he detected us three hundred miles away."

True Monarch Ten Thousand Waves explained, his eyes filled with apprehension.

He was no benevolent person. If Shen Long had been seriously injured, True Monarch Ten Thousand Waves would not have let Shen Long leave. But Shen Long was unharmed and had not even lost much of his Law Power.

"I'm very curious how this person managed to kill a fourth-tier Flood Dragon in such a short time? Even if he had a complete set of Spirit Treasure, it shouldn't have been that easy! Look at his condition, killing a fourth-tier Red Fire Flood Dragon was effortless for him."

The Fairy Red Plum asked in confusion.

"Who knows? There are many capable and extraordinary people in the cultivation Immortal Realm. It's best for us to avoid provoking people like this. Don't be fooled by our status as one of the Ten Immortals of the North Sea. Some Nascent Soul Cultivator can Divine Ability people's lives by magic. However, they are indifferent to fame and fortune and are not known to outsiders. This person is most likely one of these Nascent Soul Cultivator cultivators."

True Monarch Ten Thousand Waves said solemnly.

"Fellow Daoist Wei, do you think this person might be Spirit Transformation cultivator?"

The Fairy Red Plum put forward a bold conjecture.

"Impossible! Spirit Transformation cultivator addressing us as equals?"

True Monarch Ten Thousand Waves raised a question.

"What's the big deal? Some Spirit Transformation stage cultivators don't care about these formalities at all. They hide their cultivation and mingle among low-level cultivators."

The Fairy Red Plum shared her opinion.

"I don't know for sure, but it's definitely the right thing to do not make an enemy of this person. Now that the fourth-tier Red Fire Flood Dragon has been killed, let's go back!"

True Monarch Ten Thousand Waves said.

The Fairy Red Plum nodded, and the Mystic Fire Boat immediately emitted a dazzling red light, transforming into a streak of red light and flying back the way it came, quickly disappearing from sight.

······

Sun and Moon Island, the General Headquarters Sun and Moon Palace.

In a quiet, silver manor, Song Lianyue and Chu Buyu sat around Zhang Qing stone table, sipping tea and chatting.

"Two Nascent Soul Cultivator from the Hundred Ghosts Sect were killed? Did you send someone to do it?"

Song Lianyue asked.

"No, I'm also very curious about who did it. I asked the affiliated forces, but they all don't know. The Wu Clan doesn't know who did it either."

Chu Buyu said, his face full of confusion.

"That's strange. Even if Yin Shan and Liu Mei are no match for them, with the protection of the Fourth-Rank Array, they should be able to buy some time to escape, unless the Island Protection Formation is broken soon."

Song Lianyue asked in confusion.

"Master, should I send someone to investigate this matter?"

Chu Buyu suggested.

"No need. Yin Shan and Liu Mei were our enemies to begin with. If they're dead, they're dead. I have a task for you to handle."

Song Lianyue said.

"What is it?"

Chu Buyu asked.

"Zhou Yuhua of the Zhou Clan has advanced to the Nascent Soul Realm and is holding Nascent Soul Formation Ceremony, inviting many guests. We have also received an invitation. You and Xu Xin will represent our Sun and Moon Palace to congratulate Zhou Yuhua and, while you're at it, investigate the truth behind Junior Lin's murder. Junior Lin went to the Western Desert Cultivation World Western Desert Cultivation World a trip and died there. We don't know who did it."

Song Lianyue gave the instructions.

"Kill the murderer? Or capture him alive?"

Chu Buyu continued to ask.

"Capturing her alive won't be easy, let's just kill her! Find out why the murderer killed Junior Lin."

Song Lianyue gave the instructions.

"We're currently engaged in frequent battles with the Heaven Ghost Sect. Should we wait until the fighting is over before going over?"

Chu Buyu asked for instructions.

"With us here, Lin Feng won't dare to act recklessly. You can go without worry! We can quell the war."

Song Lianyue gave the order in an unquestionable tone.

"Yes, Master."

Chu Buyu agreed.
