Chapter 1012: Chase Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The Wicked Bead was much faster than Han the Iron. He was caught up with before long. This time, Lu Li smashed away Han the Iron with the Wicked Bead. He then dashed out and set free the Dragon Demon.
"Hoot, hoot~"
Every time the Dragon Demon appeared, it was thrilling. That enormous momentum was horrifying and suffocating.
Dragon Demon had eaten two Mythical Creatures that were comparable to Semi-G.o.d Realm warriors. The Dragon Demon had grown to longer than two thousand feet, even larger than a small hill. One look at the gigantic beast could make people struggle for air.
The Dragon Demon charged forward and swung its tail at Han the Iron who had just been smashed away by Lu Li. The Dragon Demon was fast. Han the Iron did not have time to dodge before the tail hit him.
"Boom!"
Han the Iron was knocked into the ground. A bottomless crack appeared on the ground, and he sank in.
"Bang!"
Not far from there, the ground suddenly burst open as Han the Iron dashed out. Lu Li checked with psychic power, only to find that Han the Iron did not sustain any serious injuries. There was no clear open wound on his body even though there was a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.
"Impressive!"
Lu Li exclaimed. Needless to say, the skill must be taught by the G.o.d of Barbarian, or else it would not have been so powerful. A warrior at the peak of the Earth Immortal Realm had a defense level of the middle stage of the Semi-G.o.d Realm. Not even something as powerful as Dragon Demon could inflict harm on Han the Iron now.
"Keep going!"
Lu Li ordered the Dragon Demon to go after Han the Iron, and he followed them while being inside the Wicked Bead. He was interested to find out how many rounds of attacks from the Dragon Demon could Han the Iron withstand.
"Hoot, hoot!"
The Dragon Demon spread its wings which were longer than two thousand feet. The sky was blotted. The Dragon Demon cried out as it charged forth and not long afterward, it caught up with Han the Iron.
This time, the Dragon Demon released a red airstream which affected Han the Iron. Lu Li was stunned to see that—Han the Iron was not trapped. He was continuing forward.
"Is that skill really this strong?"
Lu Li curled his lips. Even Semi-G.o.d Realm warriors could not stand Dragon Demon"s powers. However, Han the Iron was unaffected?
"Is there something strange with that yellowish halo?"
Master of Fairy Fox"s Enchantment was ineffective to Han the Iron and so was Lu Li"s soul attack. Now, Han the Iron could break free from the Dragon Demon"s trap? Lu Li stared at the yellowish halo curiously.
He made up his mind. If he could capture Han the Iron, he would grill him about this skill to study it which would make his defensive power all the more strong.
"Boom!"
The Dragon Demon was much faster than Han the Iron. The former flapped its wings and slapped on Han the Iron"s head with its huge claw.
Han the Iron tried to run. However, despite his strong defense, neither his offensive abilities nor his speed was good enough. He could not have run and was knocked into the ground by the Dragon Demon.
Lu Li had been following him in the Wicked Bead, keeping psychic power on him all this time. Lu Li was more relieved when he saw Han the Iron in deeper pain and had spat out more blood.
Even though Han the Iron did finally run and snuck out of the ground some distance away, it was proven that the Dragon Demon could hurt his internal organs and the injury must be severe. At this rate, Han the Iron would be shattered to death eventually.
"Boom, boom, boom~"
Han the Iron ran and the Dragon Demon chased while Lu Li flew in the Wicked Bead—following them—in case there was a trap waiting for him.
He was convinced that Han the Iron would have circled around for nothing. However, Lu Li could not figure out what Han the Iron"s plan was.
"Inhibition Formations? Other types of formations?"
Lu Li wondered. The Barbarian Race shouldn"t be experts in formations, and he saw nothing of this sort along the way. What exactly was Han the Iron up to?
"Bang!"
Once again, Han the Iron was smashed away. Blood spurted out from his mouth. He was evidently paler, which indicated a more serious injury.
"Hoot, hoot~"
On the other hand, the Dragon Demon was having an easy time. Sometimes, the Dragon Demon would use its tail and others, like its claw, much like a cat toying a mouse.
Han the Iron"s strong defense did annoy the Dragon Demon. That being said, he was slow and his attacks were feeble. He did fight back, but it was more like a scratch to the Dragon Demon.
They had covered thousands of miles during the chase. Lu Li failed to find any trap. Frowning, Lu Li wondered if Han the Iron had no plan, and it was just him worrying too much.
"Never mind. Keep going!"
Han the Iron was wounded. Lu Li believed that Han the Iron would be defeated in half a day at most and eventually, he would be smashed to death. His demise would secure the conquer of the Barbarian Land of the North. No plot or trick could prevail in the face of absolute power.
"Bang!"
Time and time again, Han the Iron was knocked away by the Dragon Demon, and he would spit out more blood. However, he was taking healing pellets every now and then so his recovery was fast.
"Such a tough one to defeat!"
Lu Li curled his lips. Inside the Wicked Bead, he expressed his exclamation to Bai Xiashuang and the others. During his fight, his three wives knew better than to chit chat with him. Now Lu Li had the time to talk, Bai Xiashuang hurried to ask her question, "Darling, how is it going out there?"
"Nothing much is going on."
Lu Li replied while smiling, "The Dragon Demon is hunting down the Master of the Barbarian Race. He is a hardcore character. Dragon Demon only manages to hurt him. I think it will be some time before he can be killed."
"Wow!"
Bai Xiashuang"s eyes glowed as she begged, "Darling, can I go out and take a look? Just a peep."
Bai Xiashuang had heard about the Dragon Demon many times, but she had never seen it in person. She was obviously interested to know how the Dragon Demon was chasing the Master of the Barbarian Race at this moment.
Her curiosity was shared by Bai Qiuxue and Jiang Qiling as well. After all, they were all told that the Dragon Demon could be comparable to an immortal. Chances to witness a battle between the Dragon Demon and the Master of the Barbarian Race couldn"t have come easily.
"Fine. I will take you out but only one peep."
Lu Li could not say no to his three wives. It was not dangerous outside anyways, and they could return at once.
Lu Li first checked with psychic power. They were not close to the center of the battlefield. The Dragon Demon was threatening, and Bai Xiashuang"s realm was too low for that.
Making sure that it was safe, Lu Li took his three wives out of the Wicked Bead. As soon as they came out, they could sense the strong presence of the Dragon Demon. The three girls took a look and just happened to see a giant beast whoos.h.i.+ng down and swinging its tail at a man in front it.
"Bang!"
Han the Iron was smashed away. The Dragon Demon"s tail landed on a hill nearby, carrying a tremendous force. That hill was halved, causing a landslide. Stones were rolling down, stirring up dust. The noise incessantly lingered on.
Jiang Qiling and Bai Qiuxue had rarely seen such a scene. Frightened by the Dragon Demon, the two of them could not help but hold their breaths nervously.
As for Bai Xiashuang, she was scared pale. She was only at the n.o.ble Lord Realm, which was nothing compared to the Dragon Demon which was about the Semi-G.o.d Realm. If she were any closer, she might faint from the sheer presence of the Dragon Demon.
"There, there. It"s okay!"
Taking Bai Xiashuang"s hand, Lu Li smiled. "The Dragon Demon is my spiritual beast, a pet we keep. Think like this and you will not be afraid."
"Sure."
Bai Xiashuang forced a smile and blinked. At that moment, the Dragon Demon suddenly bellowed. Color had just come back to her face, but what just happened made her pale again. She threw herself into Lu Li"s arms, afraid to take another look.
