The shadows behind him surged, covering Lu Li like armor, forming a shadow giant three or four meters tall. Shadow Magic surged wildly in his hand, and a long spear like a pillar appeared in Lu Li's hand. He suddenly jumped and directly stabbed the Flood Dragon in the body.

With a roar, the Flood Dragon swung its body, throwing Lu Li away. However, the giant shadow spear remained embedded in the Flood Dragon's body. With a thought from Lu Li, numerous Thorn burst forth from the spear, tightly binding the Flood Dragon. In that instant, Lu Li used up a quarter of his Shadow Magic. Although the Flood Dragon's appearance had summoned dark clouds and wind, blocking the sunlight, and his Shadow Magic was recovering quickly, it was still insufficient to sustain the fight.

Enraged, the Flood Dragon caused the Yixing River to swell rapidly, quickly submerging most of Lu Li's shadow giant. Zhou Chu and the Shadow Assassin were also completely submerged and disappeared from sight. Lu Li waded through the water, charging directly towards the Flood Dragon. Holes appeared in some places on his body, Lu Li ran, the changing light and shadow created a dazzling effect. Some river winds, passing through those holes, emitted a mournful, weeping sound.

The Flood Dragon turned around, opened its huge mouth covered in black mucus, and lunged at Lu Li. At the same time, a glob of saliva flew out. Lu Li quickly jumped to the side, dodging the saliva, and the Flood Dragon's mouth was right in front of him.

A large shadow separated from the shadow giant and rushed towards the Flood Dragon's gaping maw, transforming into an irregular ball of spikes. Lu Li took the opportunity to hide in the water beside him. Just then, Zhou Chu jumped out of the water and climbed onto the Flood Dragon's body.

"Catch!" Lu Li conjured a shadow spear in his hand and threw it towards Zhou Chu. Zhou Chu, who had grabbed a scale of the Flood Dragon with one hand, heard Lu Li's voice, grabbed the thrown shadow spear with his other hand, and with a twist of his hand, stabbed it directly into the Flood Dragon's body.

The Flood Dragon tossed its head, coating the shadow spikes at the entrance with saliva, and spat them into the distance. Lu Li tried to cancel the shadow, but found it was interfered with and difficult to do so. Sure enough, this Flood Dragon was quite intelligent; without the shadow's assistance, Lu Li would have a hard time participating in this battle.

Just then, a purplish-red torrent surged towards them. Lilith swayed her snake tail and came to Lu Li's side, issuing a silent command. Dozens of Purple-Red Giant Snake, each over ten meters long, rushed towards the Flood Dragon.

"The snake is on its own!" Lu Li reminded Zhou Chu from the side. After exchanging a glance with Lilith, he suddenly dived into the water, sensing his own shadow, and swam towards it.

Zhou Chu glanced at Lilith, who had a human body and a snake tail, but didn't think much of it. He nodded, drew the shadow spear that Lu Li had created, and charged directly towards Flood Dragon's head along its back.

The giant, purplish-red Giant Serpent opened their enormous mouths and bit down hard on the Flood Dragon, draining Flood Dragon life force. Their bodies continued to grow larger. The Flood Dragon roared in anger, "These tiny insects dare to bite me!" It lashed out with its tail, smashing several of the Giant Serpent into a pulp. But the other purplish-red Giant Serpent continued their frenzied attack on the Flood Dragon, risking their lives to tear off a piece of Flood Dragon flesh.

The Flood Dragon roared angrily, turned around and plunged into the water. Zhou Chu, standing on the dragon's back, saw that things were not going well and quickly plunged his Shadow Spear into the Flood Dragon's body, gripping the spear tightly with both hands.

As the Flood Dragon swam into the water, it moved wildly, creating countless currents that crashed against the long snakes attached to its body and Zhou Chu. Some of the snakes' teeth broke off and were swept away by the current, while others were knocked unconscious by the surrounding water.

Zhou Chu held his breath, closed his eyes, and gripped the spear tightly with both hands. The water lashed against his body, making him feel suffocated. He didn't know how much time had passed before the Flood Dragon finally slowed down. When Zhou Chu opened his eyes, he saw that he was at the bottom of the river, and a dragon's tail was lashing out at him.

Feeling like he couldn't hold his breath any longer, Zhou Chu decided to let go and go ashore first. However, he was slapped by the Flood Dragon's tail. Even with his superhuman physical strength, he couldn't help but open his mouth and spit out bright red blood. Unexpectedly, a disgusting yellow pus-like blood from the Flood Dragon floated into his mouth. Then Zhou Chu discovered that there was a lot of air in the blood. So he took another bite of the Flood Dragon and sucked out another mouthful of blood.

Zhou Chu reached into the Flood Dragon's wound, veins bulging, pulled out the Shadow Spear, and forcefully broke it in two. Grabbing one piece in each hand, he ran towards the Flood Dragon's head as if climbing a mountain, and couldn't hold his breath any longer, so he drank a mouthful of the Flood Dragon's blood.

If anyone else dared to do this, they would probably be immediately corrupted by the Flood Dragon's blood and Mutation a dragon-blooded monster. Only someone like Zhou Chu, with a powerful body and immunity to all kinds of curses, could do such a thing.

The Flood Dragon thrashed wildly. Just then, a large black shadow leaped from the river and landed behind the Flood Dragon. A pair of shadowy hands tightly embraced the Flood Dragon's tail. The shadow transformed into tentacles, piercing into the Flood Dragon's tail. At the same time, Shadow Magic was unleashed, generating a large number of shadow Thorn that pierced into the silt of the riverbed, holding the Flood Dragon firmly in place.

Lu Li had previously searched for his shadow and found it trapped in a lump of saliva. This saliva was extremely sticky and even hindered Lu Li's release. In the end, Lu Li used the Shadow Spear to forcibly pierce through the saliva, then made the spear hollow, thus freeing his shadow. He then immediately used the Shadow Spear he had given to Zhou Chu to rush to the battlefield.

In the distance, Lilith swayed her snake tail, controlling the remaining dozen or so purplish-red Giant Snake to rush over, circling the Flood Dragon and biting it relentlessly. The Flood Dragon struggled continuously, turned around, and charged directly at Lu Li, who was holding onto its tail.

The shadow's interior constantly shifted, with Shadow Magic directly inputting into it, creating a peculiar structure. Then, all the greed accumulated in Lu Li's heart was released, and the shadow giant, originally three or four meters tall, instantly grew to about seven or eight meters. It released the Flood Dragon's tail and rammed into it violently.

The towering shadow giant's internal structure was shattered by the impact and bounced back into an irregular sphere. The Flood Dragon's head was knocked to one side, and it was somewhat dizzy. Zhou Chu inserted the two pieces of his spear into the Flood Dragon's body. After surviving the impact, Zhou Chu drank some dragon blood, roared, and charged directly at the Flood Dragon's head. He thrust the broken spear into the Flood Dragon's eye and kicked it hard.

Zhou Chu grabbed the Flood Dragon's horn, which resembled barbs, from the dragon's head. The Flood Dragon shook its head in pain, chose a direction, and charged straight at it. The Flood Dragon crashed into the riverbank, and Zhou Chu was thrown out and fell onto the riverbank, only a broken dragon horn remaining in his hand.

He gasped for air, vomiting clumps of dragon blood that looked like yellow pus. The Flood Dragon, with one horn severed and a broken spear still stuck in one eye, stood up, its wounded body covered in wounds. Its remaining eye glared Wrath at Zhou Chu and the shadowy giant that then crawled out of the river.

"You damned mortals, I am the great Flood Dragon, the god who rules over you, you cannot defeat me!" the Flood Dragon said, splattering large amounts of yellowish-purulent blood that congealed on its body, forming a mucous membrane-like armor.
