The Immortal Court's Dragon

Mayflies are not mediums for Incantation Technique; no one raises these tiny creatures that live only a day and die at night as mediums for Incantation Technique.

However, mayflies are insects that reproduce very quickly in rainy environments. If used properly, they can disrupt the caster's vision and also have a fatal impact on the ranged targeting of archers.

In this environment, Li Guang's success rate in locking onto and killing an opponent with a single shot would decrease significantly.

The real methods will be revealed after the mayfly.

Countless mayflies fluttered around me, constantly climbing onto every part of my body, even burrowing into my ears and nostrils.

With just a single impact of the body's Qi and Blood, these fragile little insects would be completely annihilated by the force. However, for an archer, such a systemic impact on Qi and Blood also means that they cannot channel their power into their archery skills.

For Li Guang, this was the worst possible environment for long-range shooting.

His gaze swept across the scene, and he saw Xu Chang driving the Tongtian Crown higher and higher.

This Law Artifact can exert a crushing force as powerful as a mountain when it touches the body, but the distance of smashing it hundreds of feet into the air is obviously too far. The higher the Tongtian Crown flies, the slower its speed becomes, and the more Law Power it consumes.

Although Xu Chang was desperately trying to control his Law Treasure, which could even trigger a qualitative change in the battle, the opponent's speed was still too slow, so slow that Li Guang could hardly tolerate it.

What's worse is that when Xu Chang commands the magical Law Treasure, he stands still, while the mayfly crawls around on his body, and the negative effects on his body begin to affect Xu Chang control.

"Lubbold!"

Li Guang couldn't help but shout.

A figure burst out of the Jing River, drawing a long sword as he leaped downwards.

As the cold light flashed, countless mayflies turned into mud and fell to the ground.

"Captain of the Imperial Guards, there seems to be a water palace in that river, but it's tightly sealed, making it difficult to find a gap to sneak in. The thieves shouldn't be hiding inside."

Lu Bode looked solemn, wielding his long sword with such skill that it was impossible to pour water on it, but his heart was in turmoil.

This is clearly not a good environment for fighting.

There were so many mayflies that Lubbold could hardly bear it.

After giving a brief reply, he had to be on high alert, wary of any sudden deadly attacks from these mayflies, and kept moving closer to Xu Chang, who was casting a spell.

"Protect Prime Minister Xu and let him focus on defeating the rain-bringing monster," Li Guang said in a deep voice.

"Yes!"

Lu Bode reluctantly agreed.

He watched as Xu Chang's body twisted uncontrollably, unsure how to protect him.

Not to mention Xu Chang, even Lu Bode himself couldn't avoid being tainted by mayflies; mayflies were everywhere he looked.

He didn't know what methods the Incantation Technique had used, but Lu Bode felt that the crowd was like a latrine, attracting countless mayflies to crawl onto him.

These little creatures aren't afraid of death at all. Even if Lubot tried to kill them with a knife, they would just die on their own when the time was up.

But these men couldn't possibly survive a day in such an environment, and their opponents would certainly not pass up the opportunity to assassinate them.

"Phew~"

Lu Bode brandished his longsword wildly, then had no choice but to blow a breath into Xu Chang's nostrils to stop these mindless mayflies from darting around.

"Is Lord Dongfang dead?"

Looking at the two fallen duo, Lu Bode couldn't help but ask a question while brandishing his sword.

"He caught a poisonous toad from the Yedie River, and its venom sprayed all over his face. He also smelled the poisonous fumes. He's probably going to die!"

Li Guang glanced at the scene and quickly replied.

His longbow, bowstring, and arrows were covered with mayflies. He held an arrow between three fingers of his right hand. The bowstring was not drawn at all, but as soon as he spotted a target, Li Guang's arrow would still fly very fast.

Among the countless mayflies, Li Guang could sense danger approaching step by step.

The opponent's body is hidden inside the mayfly; when it suddenly attacks, it will inevitably unleash a deadly move.

Rainwater mixed with the sticky remains of mayfly corpses clung to his body, and a sudden stench of decay wafted out. Li Guang's eyes narrowed slightly, and the arrow in his hand had already left the bowstring.

"Excellent archery skills!"

A muffled murmur of praise was accompanied by a streak of purple light shooting into the sky and disappearing in a flash.

The arrows in the quiver flew into his palm. Just as Li Guang was about to fire another arrow to catch up and kill his opponent, his heart skipped a beat, and his body leaped out quickly.

Two glossy black venomous snakes emerged from the area he had stepped on. Their slithering bodies missed their first strike, and then they turned on Lu Bode and Xu Chang.

"Despicable methods!"

With an incredibly swift stroke of his longsword, Lubot's headless serpent instantly transformed into a single strand of hair and fell to the ground.

He shouted, and upon hearing Li Guang's urgent call, Lu Bode's heart skipped a beat.

Li Guang leaped aside to avoid the attack, Lu Bode swung his sword and severed the venomous snake, while Xu Chang, who was standing still casting a spell, took the blow head-on, his face turning ashen in an instant.

Sensing the risks of the Incantation Technique, Xu Chang shouted, a purple qi emanating from his body, and his Law Power surged.

"Town!"

A dull thud echoed high in the sky, and a dragon appeared in the dark clouds, plummeting downwards.

Just as Zhang Xuezhou was powerless when he was suppressed, the dragon twisted its body but could not stop its descent.

Xu Chang felt a sense of relief, thinking that the rain and disaster were finally over. Just as he was about to reach out again, he felt a bit dizzy.

Looking down at the venomous snake biting his calf, Xu Chang saw flames rapidly burning on the ground, a line of fire extending hundreds of meters away from the mayfly.

A dull, painful sound rang out, and a body as transparent as water shattered instantly, then transformed into a streak of purple light that shot into the sky.

"Don't go!"

An arrow shot out like a meteor, then chased far behind the purple light.

"Snort!"

The muffled groans of pain faded into the distance. Xu Chang shook his head vigorously and saw Zhang Xuezhou, who was lying on the ground clutching a poisonous toad, mutter as he stood up. He then Rong Tianding up and then pulled Xu Chang up as well.

Xu Chang had just taken a few unsteady steps when he felt a strong gust of wind rushing towards him from above.

As his gaze swept across the scene, he saw a dragon nearly ten zhang long plummeting down, its four claws flailing wildly.

The Tongtian crown, only half an arm's length long, pressed down on the dragon's head, but this was the mountain the dragon could not escape, forcing it to interrupt its Technique Method and fall.

"How dare a mere dragon act so presumptuously in our Chang'an City!"

After running for more than ten steps with Zhang Xuezhou and the others, Xu Chang dodged the area where the dragon had fallen, and then pointed at the dragon.

The closer the Tongtian Crown was to him, the easier it was for Xu Chang to control it. Even when the crown was contaminated with snake venom, Xu Chang was still able to maintain control.

No matter how incompetent he was as the prime minister of the Great Han Dynasty, Xu Chang was a third- Aristocratic Clan and had all the necessary fighting skills. Even if he was unwell, he could endure it.

The dragon's body crashed down, splashing up countless muds and mayfly corpses. Xu Chang couldn't help but curse as he was splattered all over.

He waved to Lu Bode and Li Guang, and Lu Bode's longsword immediately slashed down towards the dragon's neck, while Li Guang shot an arrow towards the center of the dragon's forehead.

"I beg the Heavenly Venerable to save me!"

Falling onto the riverbank, the dragon frantically clawed for its way out, its eyes filled with terror, and it couldn't help but cry out.

A colorful cloud emerged from the dragon's body, and countless golden lanterns, golden lotuses, necklaces, and dangling beads fell from the cloud, like water dripping from the eaves in an endless stream.

Lu Bode's longsword struck as if it had cleaved a mountain; blood was already flowing from his right hand as the blade fell.

Li Guang's arrow was blocked by a golden lamp that appeared. When the lamp shattered and disappeared into light, the arrow also fell to the ground powerlessly.

"It's a dragon belonging to the Celestial Venerable of the Immortal Court!"

Li Guang sighed bitterly, feeling that after the Empress Dowager's death, powerful cultivators from all sorts of forces had emerged.
