The Bastard Dragon: The One Holding Its Head Asked with a Smile

The vertical-eyed Immortal cultivator's scales stood on end, and blackish-purple Core Qi surged from its body, transforming into a phantom that immediately intercepted Fang Shu's seven Flying Swords.

A tinkling sound rang out aboard the Golden Core Treasure Ship.

This beast's Core Qi was quite resilient, actually managing to block the Flying Sword.

Fang Shu seeing this, Fang Shu let out a soft exclamation. "Where did this beast come from? Core Qi is still quite remarkable."

Hearing this, the vertical-eyed Immortal cultivator was even more shocked and furious.

The scoundrel roared, "I reside in the Zigong! How dare this hairless monkey be so insolent!"

But the moment the words were spoken, the Immortal with Immortal cultivator Eyes' expression changed.

Pizzle!

The seven Flying Swords that it had blocked with its internal Core Qi suddenly pierced through its weak points, penetrating its protective internal Core Qi and striking its scales.

The clanging sound continued, ringing out incessantly, as if someone were chopping wood or forging iron.

This sight terrified the nearby tortoise and Immortal cultivator immortals.

The tortoise Immortal cultivator repeatedly shouted to their attendants, "Quickly, quickly, come forward and help us in the battle!"

However, the black-scaled serpents that were towing the carriage were all battered and bleeding, and even if they wanted to help, they were too weak to do so.

This made the Immortal cultivator even more anxious. In a flash, it stepped into the hundred-zhang-long carriage, and then drove out a bunch of demons one after another.

Among these demonic creatures were mermaids, bird women, and even ghostly female demons with ethereal bodies—a diverse array of beauties.

"I've raised you all for so long, why don't you come forward and help us in battle?" the turtle Immortal cultivator shouted hastily.

To everyone's surprise, after being driven out, these enchantresses looked at each other in bewilderment, only crying out, "We only know how to fight in bed, but we are not good at this kind of real combat!"

The tortoise and Immortal cultivator were even more anxious, shouting repeatedly, "Whatever battle tactics you know, as long as they can help, use them as soon as possible! Make your move quickly!"

Upon hearing this, the demonesses all hesitated, but intimidated by the usual tyranny of the Vertical-Eyed Immortal cultivator, they dared not stand idly by.

After whispering among themselves for a moment, some of them suddenly started picking up conch shells, others were cracking open seashells, and those who didn't have anything to do cleared their throats and began to groan and hum.

In an instant, the once fierce battle on the Golden Core Treasure Ship was transformed into a scene of sensual pleasure, filled with an atmosphere of lewd and obscene sounds that made one feel ashamed.

You know what?

Such a scene immediately affected the two sides engaged in the magical duel.

Fang Shu couldn't help but glance at them, looking at the enchanting women with surprise.

Seeing him looking over, some of the more loyal and bold among the enchantresses began to flirt with him, attempting to bewitch Fang Shu's mind.

Even though Fang Shu of great experience, he still felt that his eyes had been opened today.

He couldn't help but shake his head. "This sea is truly barbaric and lacking in manners. Immortal cultivator and immortals are even inferior to Outer Dao cultivators."

Roar!

In that instant of distraction, the vertical-eyed Immortal cultivator thought he had seized a sliver of opportunity.

With a whoosh, the fang turned and suddenly grew larger, transforming into a massive, scaled creature a thousand feet tall.

This enormous creature was coiled on the Golden Core Treasure Ship. It resembled a crocodile, but it lacked the mouth of a crocodile. Its body was rather slender, more like a snake, making it quite bizarre.

However, one thing is certain: this creature has the distinct features of a dragon and should indeed be considered a jiaolong (a type of dragon).

"No, this beast is a true immortal alchemist, far beyond what a Foundation Establishment dragon can compare to. It is a true dragon, and should be considered a hybrid dragon," Fang Shu thought to himself.

The massive, scaled creature revealed its true form, immediately sweeping its tail horizontally and smashing down on Fang Shu.

"Prepare to die!"

With such movements, his Core Qi was incredibly powerful, truly among the best Fang Shu had ever seen in combat.

If he gets hit by such a sweeping attack, he'll likely come out worse off and will be drawn into a subsequent fight.

However, a flash of crimson-gold light passed over Fang Shu's body.

With a light step, he appeared above the head of the massive, scaled creature, looking down at the monstrous beast.

His demeanor was calm and composed, showing no signs of being influenced by those enchanting women.

Fang Shu still had a slight smile on his face, but suddenly he raised his hand, and seven more crimson-gold rays of light flew out and landed on the seven Flying Swords.

Buzz! Clang!

The seven Flying Swords, which had initially appeared somewhat exhausted, all trembled, their sharpness surging, and they converged with each other, as if...

If they were one, they would transform into a single, radiant, seven-colored Peacock Feather.

Upon seeing this, the Immortal cultivator with the vertical-eyed gaze widened in shock, his heart skipping a beat. "This is bad!"

It immediately tucked its tail back, attempting to either swat away the seven Flying Swords or protect its head.

But the next moment...

With a soft "plop," the seven-colored Peacock Feather, seemingly fast yet slow, pierced one of its eyes before it could, and continued to drill into its skull, intending to kill it.

A wisp of black energy flew out from the giant creature's forehead, transforming into a claw that suddenly pounced towards Fang Shu, interrupting Fang Shu actions.

Fang Shu hurriedly gathered his Flying Sword and fled backward.

The Immortal cultivator with Vertical Eyes barely managed to save his life.

Even so, a scream still emanated from its mouth, "Aaaaah! Human, I'm going to eat you!"

It was seen covering its left eye socket with one paw, from which purplish-black blood was flowing.

Right in front of Fang Shu was an object the size of a windmill, covered in blood.

In this situation, Fang Shu's sword failed to kill the beast, but it did gouge out the beast's left eyeball.

With a snap, Fang Shu flicked his sleeve, shrinking the eyeball to the size of a grape, and played with it in his hand, a half-smile on his face.

"Since you dare to try and eat people, then today, I truly will not let you off the hook."

Waves of crimson -Scarlet Gold Divine Light trembled around him.

Fang Shu stared at the pitch-black claw that appeared on the forehead of the Immortal cultivator, his face still showing no fear, and even seemed quite eager to try.

Because he sensed a faint Divine Immortal aura emanating from within that hand.

In other words, this scaled monster in front of us might possess Spirit-Refining Object!

The arrogant vertical-eyed Immortal cultivator was now greatly shocked, sensing a life-or-death crisis emanating from Fang Shu.

As a result, the scales on the barbarian's body trembled, as if it were about to engage in a life-or-death struggle with Fang Shu.

But in an instant, its tail snapped, and its body suddenly darted out of the treasure ship, attempting to escape.

Fang Shu was speechless for a moment, and was about to step out of the boat to kill the beast.

He then jerked his body forward, dodging the attack from behind.

On the Golden Core Treasure Ship, a section of the giant creature's tail remained intact, still able to move on its own.

Move.

It was this scale-tailed creature that had just attacked Fang Shu on its own.

Fang Shu dodged the attack and discovered that the aura of this scale-tailed creature was not weakened in the slightest compared to before, indicating that it could not be killed in a short time.

Moreover, the opponent's main body has escaped, leaving only its tail present. With no fatal weakness, it is highly likely that this scaly tail will only stop after being chopped into mincemeat.

The tortoise and Immortal cultivator and other demons standing nearby saw that even their master had been forced to cut off his tail to survive.

Their faces showed utter astonishment.

Coming to their senses, the demons realized their predicament, and their faces turned pale in unison.

The Immortal cultivator immortal remained calm and immediately spoke up, "Don't panic, everyone. Once the young master leaves safely, our lives will actually be more secure."

But then, a voice suddenly rang out on the ship. "Really?"

The turtle and Immortal cultivator immortals looked up and suddenly saw that somewhere on the Golden Core Treasure Ship, a Golden Core Aura suddenly rose up and confronted the scales left behind by their young master from a distance.

Moreover, this aura seemed even more profound and powerful; the person who wielded it hadn't even revealed their face, yet they had already immobilized the young master's scales and tail.

Clang! As for the human Immortal cultivator, he leaped with his sword and gracefully flew off the ship.

Upon seeing this, the tortoise Immortal cultivator's face immediately turned bitter, and he muttered, "Is this... a protector? You human Immortal cultivator truly have no sense of propriety—"

This demon was mistaken.

The one that suppressed the scales and tail was none other than Fang Shu himself.

At this moment, he was multitasking, leaving his main body on the ship to deal with the vertical-eyed Immortal cultivator's tail-cutting survival technique.

As for transforming into an external form, it would be perfect for pursuing the fleeing enemy, galloping away, and slaying the escaped True Immortal and demons!

After the two main parties left.

An eerie silence fell over the Golden Core Treasure Ship for a time.

Since the severed scale tail was just an inanimate object, Fang Shu's main body was not in a hurry to deal with it. He simply used magic to control it from a distance and summoned Gu worms, preparing to have the Gu worms form an array to take turns immobilizing the thing.

A clanging sound.

However, the Golden Core Treasure Ship, on which everyone was, suddenly continued sailing in the direction where the two main figures had left.

And this direction is where Shattered Star Sea Market is located.

At the same time.

Two beams of light, one purple and one gold, appeared on the sea surface.

The former is larger, the latter is smaller.

However, the former was being chased by the latter, and judging from the scene, it was quite chaotic, with the light and color revealing a sense of horror.

In less than ten breaths, the latter caught up with the former and split into several sword lights, slashing at the one who was moving forward, making it even more difficult for the former to defend himself.

Fortunately, the purple escape light was protected by treasures, which allowed it to barely hold its own.

The two figures, one in front and one behind, were Fang Shu and the mongrel True Dragon who called himself "Zigong".

With the Scarlet Gold Divine Light Avatar from Fang Shu, he could easily catch up to the opponent as long as they didn't escape far.

The reason he didn't forcefully intercept them at that moment was simply to deplete the opponent's life-saving resources.

Meanwhile, the True Dragon Zigong was filled with anxiety, for it also understood Fang Shu's intentions. It was only when its life-saving dragon scales were exhausted that Fang Shu would be able to kill it.

"This child is definitely not Vast Sea True Immortal!"

The True Dragon Zigong was filled with regret. "Who knows, it was this very scoundrel who intercepted that spineless coward from the Vast Sea and forcibly seized Vast Sea ships."

But no matter how much you regret it, there's nothing you can do.

Moreover, this fang gritted its teeth and showed no intention of begging for mercy.

It stared intently ahead, then suddenly spat out several mouthfuls of Essence Blood, further enhancing its escape light, and sped away.

Ahead lies the Shattered Star Sea Market, where an Immortal cultivator has Golden Core Perfection resides. As long as one enters the Sea Market on its rules and the prestige of the Dragon Clan, one will be safe!

During this chase and escape, the journey that would normally take the Golden Core Treasure Ship half a day to complete was greatly reduced.

Soon, the so-called Shattered Star Sea Market appeared in front of the human and the demon.

Looking out into the distance, numerous boats can be seen scattered across the sea, converging on the Sea Market.

Fang Shu's battle with the monstrous True Dragon naturally alarmed many Immortal cultivator.

Moreover, many knowledgeable Immortal cultivator recognized at a glance that the one fleeing in front was actually a True Dragon that Golden Core!

"What's going on— True Dragon is being hunted down?!"

Countless gazes were cast upon the mirage from Sea Market around.

The news also reached the Sea Market, attracting the Immortal cultivator Sea Market to fly out and linger near the Sea Market, gazing at the man and the dragon from afar.

Such attention also caught the attention of Fang Shu and True Dragon Zigong.

The latter's face immediately lit up with ecstasy.

The dragon immediately spat out another mouthful of Essence Blood and frantically lunged towards the Sea Market, letting out a high-pitched dragon roar, "Roar! Old man Shattered Star, why aren't you coming out to save me!"

Such a shout made Fang Shu, who was chasing it, smile involuntarily.

This bastard dragon is almost dead, begging for help, yet he's still so arrogant and self-righteous.

To his surprise, the roar of the bastard dragon caused the Sea Market in front of him to shake, and an old man with white hair stepped out from within the array.

The other party was a human, who bowed towards the person and dragon from afar and said, "It is the Young Lord Zigong who has arrived. My Shattered Star Sea Market has failed to greet you properly."

Please, young lord, come inside and rest for a while.

During this time, a voice transmission reached Fang Shu's ears from over a hundred miles away. The other party sighed, "Fellow Daoist, you two have arrived at the location of my Shattered Star Sea Market. Please stop immediately."

Otherwise, don't blame me for intervening.

However, what responded to him was a burst of Golden Light emanating from Fang Shu's body.

Just as the True Dragon Zigong thought it had a chance to survive, Fang Shu enhanced his body with the seven Peacock Swords, then leaped into the air and transformed into a cold hook, slashing towards the True Dragon Zigong's head.

A flash of Cold Glint caught the True Dragon Zigong off guard.

Even if black energy continued to emerge from the opponent's forehead as they lunged at Fang Shu, their life-saving abilities had already been severely depleted after the journey.

"No!!" the True Dragon Zigong cried out in alarm.

Sizzle!

Before the black mist could take shape, it was forcibly cleaved through by Fang Shu's leaping sword.

The next moment.

The purple light, which was still fleeing, paused, as if time had stood still.

Immediately, the opponent's enormous dragon body split in two, and the headless shell continued to lunge towards the location of Shattered Star Sea Market.

However, Fang Shu had already obtained that ferocious dragon head.

Amidst the buzzing, Fang Shu also used Law Technique to forcibly suppress the dragon head in his hand, transforming it into the size of a human head.

He carried the dragon head as if it were a wine jar, his robes billowing, and looked at the white-haired old Daoist priest flying towards him with his hands behind his back.

The man smiled and said, "Greetings, Senior Shattered Star."

"Senior, are you still going to interfere?"
