The moment Mist Dragon went invisible, Ya Ji, before the poison mist could spread, quickly spat a fireball at Mist Dragon.
It was a shame that the fireball was too rushed and Mist Dragon dodged it.
Seeing the white mist appear again, Luo Yun's Mind's Eye continuously observed Mist Dragon's movements while urging Ya Ji to leave quickly.
Ya Ji unwillingly spread her wings, the wind pressure slowing the spread of the poison mist, and her body shot up into the sky.
Luo Yun's body was once again covered in flames, his blood solidifying in the high temperature and falling off as powder.
He cautiously flapped his wings, his body leaving the ground and hovering at a low altitude.
That previous explosion was truly a shame. At the last moment, Mist Dragon had judged the landing spot. At that speed, Luo Yun didn't have time to adjust his direction again and could only brace himself and crash down.
As a result, Mist Dragon successfully escaped the center of the explosion and didn't take the full brunt of the damage. Otherwise, Mist Dragon's injuries wouldn't have been just superficial.
Mist Dragon continuously changed its position within the fog, but unfortunately, at this distance, all its movements were clearly perceived by Luo Yun.
The flames accumulated through Fire Attraction had been almost entirely consumed in the previous attack, so what Luo Yun needed to do now was to increase the destruction of the surrounding environment and lure Mist Dragon into attacking proactively, thereby creating the illusion that both sides were locked in a fierce battle.
Therefore, after lightly dodging the poison spit tentatively released by Mist Dragon, Luo Yun quickly circled around it, as if trying to blind it, occasionally spitting flames around Mist Dragon or knocking over small trees with his charges.
This abnormal behavior confused Mist Dragon, but it also became secretly vigilant.
At one moment, Luo Yun's turn seemed to have a problem. Mist Dragon keenly seized this moment, spread its wings, and the dense fog around it instantly became much thinner.
At this moment, Luo Yun also received a warning from his Mind's Eye, a chilling sensation following closely behind.
He was currently turning in mid-air, and it was too late to climb or descend.
In a moment of desperation, Luo Yun directly retracted one of his wings. His body's balance was instantly broken, and the angle of his turn shifted drastically, causing the entire dragon to tumble and fall erratically.
This pre-planned abnormal evasive maneuver forcefully changed Luo Yun's trajectory, causing the green poisonous breath to miss its target.
The breath tore through the forest ahead, its corrosive effect hollowing out the thick trunks of trees, emitting strange white smoke with a foul odor.
Luo Yun plummeted like an unbalanced airplane, rolling and smashing into the ground several times, creating craters before sliding to a long stop, blocked by a tree.
The large tree was ignited by the flames on Luo Yun's body. He gritted his teeth against the severe pain in multiple places on his body and opened his eyes to look at Mist Dragon's position. Before he could even fully stand up, Mist Dragon spat out its long tongue, which whipped towards him like a flexible whip.
At this moment, Mist Dragon's tongue whipped rapidly, crackling as afterimages intertwined into a large net, completely engulfing Luo Yun.
This was like a scene from an anime or game, and it was actually happening in reality!
"Can't dodge!"
The tongue whip was too fast, and the attack frequency was too dense. Even with the enhancement of Acceleration, Luo Yun's body hadn't even fully stabilized, and he had no way to dodge!
There was no other choice. Luo Yun could only rely on the enhancement of his Mind's Eye to protect his vulnerable areas as much as possible, using his spikes, protruding scales, and hard dorsal exoskeleton to meet the attack.
The surrounding trees and rocks were all hit by the tongue whip, some breaking, some shattering.
Each strike on his body felt like torture, causing Luo Yun to feel a searing pain!
Spikes broke, scales shattered, and his exoskeleton cracked.
In the past five years, Luo Yun had never suffered such severe injuries!
But, it was all worth it!!
Knowing some of Mist Dragon's attack methods, this tongue whip was within Luo Yun's calculations. However, what exceeded his expectations was that Mist Dragon's tongue whip's combat power in reality was far superior to that in the game.
This further aggravated his injuries.
Although his objective was achieved, the injuries he sustained were far worse than he had anticipated!
However, Mist Dragon was also not faring well, its tongue covered in flames that couldn't be easily extinguished!
The intense burning sensation made its tongue incredibly painful.
The tongue whip could no longer be maintained.
It kept rubbing its tongue against nearby branches and dragging it across the ground, leaving long trails.
But these damned flames simply wouldn't go out!
It didn't even dare to retract its tongue rashly, fearing it would cause internal damage to its body.
Mist Dragon had never encountered such troublesome, sticky flames. Its tongue was both its sharp weapon and one of its weaknesses!
Even though Ancient Dragons had tenacious vitality, this continuous damage, while not fatal, was incredibly uncomfortable!
For a moment, Mist Dragon couldn't bother with Luo Yun anymore and began searching for a water source.
Without its deliberate control, the poison mist began to thin.
If the plan were to proceed as before, Luo Yun would need to endure his injuries and pursue Mist Dragon further, creating even more commotion.
But his injuries were more severe than anticipated, making it impossible to continue the plan.
Luo Yun looked at Mist Dragon's retreating back, no longer hiding its form, and felt immense unwillingness but also helplessness.
Boom!
Boom boom!
Balls of fire exploded around Mist Dragon. The eager Mist Dragon had to dodge to avoid these fireballs falling from the sky.
The flames still burning on its tongue made it impossible to hide its tracks even when invisible. In the gradually thinning white mist, it appeared extremely conspicuous.
Luo Yun looked up, and through the white mist, he could see Fire Dragons circling in the sky. They were accumulating flames in batches and then spitting them towards the Mist Dragon.
These were all Fire Dragons living in the Ancient Tree!
They hadn't left with the Black Flame Dragon, but had rushed over as soon as they heard the commotion.
Without the obscuring poison mist, the Mist Dragon, now exposed, no longer held the same overwhelming deterrence over these kings of the sky.
Especially seeing the Mist Dragon struggling to extinguish the flames on its tongue, just like ordinary monsters, their fear of this Ancient Dragon diminished further.
Finally, led by Ya Ji, the Fire Dragons, tormented by the oppressive presence of the past, rebounded from rock bottom.
They transformed their fear into rage and proactively attacked the Mist Dragon.
Even ordinary monsters possessed the courage to attack higher-ranking beings!
The Brachydios that was part of the plan didn't appear, but instead, the Fire Dragon flock, which Luo Yun had never factored into his plan, produced an unexpected effect.
Especially for those veteran Fire Dragons, with a clear target, their flames became the greatest threat to the Mist Dragon!
