Chapter 1045: Can't Beat Him, Call Him Brother
Upon hearing Feng Tianyu's explanation, Jiang Lin's expression darkened instantly, and his grip on the sword tightened abruptly.
"Go close the door, and leave this to me."
After saying that, without waiting for Feng Tianyu's reaction, he drew his sword and pounced towards the dragon.
Although the jiao is not yet a dragon, it is not an ordinary creature either. Although the sword strikes the two had thrown earlier hit it, they did not cause it any real damage.
Seeing Jiang Lin take the initiative to attack, a hint of disdain even flashed vividly in the black dragon's eyes as it raised its claws to grab Jiang Lin.
However, what it didn't know was that in Jiang Lin's eyes, it was already an inanimate object.
Back then, after learning the truth, he trained day and night, improving his strength while searching for Wu Yequan's whereabouts, wanting to avenge Ye Wanxi.
Little did he expect that just as he was about to achieve great success in his cultivation, he learned of Wu Yequan's whereabouts, but by the time he arrived, it was already too late.
Wu Yequan is dead, but he has not yet breathed his last.
This unexpected discovery led Jiang Lin to regard it as a substitute for Wu Yequan, and he wished he could tear it to pieces immediately!
When Ye Wanxi and the other person arrived, Jiang Lin had already charged over aggressively.
Among the senior brothers, Feng Tianyu and Jiang Lin have the highest martial arts skills. The reason they are ranked together is that they only fought each other when they were about ten years old, and the fight ended in a draw.
After that, the two never fought each other again, not even to spar.
Even so, Jiang Lin's martial prowess is beyond doubt. The path of sword cultivation is the most difficult and talent-dependent path in the cultivation of immortality.
Jiang Lin is not only exceptionally talented, but also extremely hardworking, making him a renowned sword cultivator across the entire continent.
Every year, countless people come to challenge him, but even when he chose to retire and reincarnate, he remained undefeated.
Before the black dragon's claw could even reach Jiang Lin, it was struck by a fierce and powerful sword aura.
Unlike the previous sword strike, this one contained some pure magical power. Although it didn't completely sever the black dragon's claws, it did leave a deep, bone-revealing bloodstain on them.
The black dragon never expected that anyone in this world could hurt it. Under its carelessness, it failed to dodge Jiang Lin's sword. A sharp pain came from its claws, causing it to cry out in pain.
Its enormous body writhed in pain, creating towering waves.
Jiang Lin's attack hit its mark, giving the black dragon no chance to react. He then swung his sword several more times, each strike aimed directly at the black dragon's eyes.
This time, the black dragon dared not be careless again; although it was large, it was very agile.
Seeing the sword energy rushing towards its head, it immediately turned its head and plunged into the water with a splash.
Unfortunately, while it moved quickly, Jiang Lin was not slow either.
Because of the black dragon's dodge, although the swords did not pierce its eyes, they struck its body before it could hide in the water.
Just like scraping fish scales, they forcibly removed several black scales from the black dragon's body.
The churning seawater, streaked with thin lines of blood, surged up from the seabed, filling the air with a strong, fishy stench.
After the sea level calmed down for a brief two or three seconds, the black dragon's head emerged from the water again.
The pain of having its scales scraped was no less than the pain of having its claws broken; the intense pain had thoroughly enraged this invincible beast.
It stiffened its neck and roared loudly, its two golden eyes turning blood red. It opened its blood-red maw and spat out a mouthful of crimson flames at Jiang Lin.
"Watch out! This fire is poisonous!"
Jun Wuduan is the most skilled pharmacist on the entire continent. He can distinguish medicine or poison at a glance as long as the person is within ten meters of him.
The fire this dragon spews is not only incredibly powerful, capable of easily burning a person to ashes, but it is also highly poisonous.
Once burned by flames, the poison penetrates deep into the flesh and blood, spreading throughout the body within minutes and causing the poison to take effect.
In just a few minutes, let alone finding a way to detoxify, it's not even possible to find the antidote.
Jiang Lin, reminded by him, didn't foolishly confront the dragon's flames head-on. He nimbly dodged while also slashing his sword into its mouth a few times.
This time, the black dragon learned its lesson. Upon seeing the shiny object, it immediately turned the fire around, attempting to melt the sword energy with its flames.
Upon impact, the sword energy was indeed burned away by the flames, but a tiny bit remained, striking the black dragon's mouth.
It didn't knock off the scales from its mouth, but it swollen its mouth through the scales!
The black dragon has lived for over a thousand years; it has never suffered such injustice.
Seeing that Jiang Lin was not someone to be trifled with, and that this not-so-troublesome person now had several other equally not-so-troublesome people by his side.
After thinking about it, it decided to call itself "little brother" as well.
An angry roar rang out, and from the center of the black dragon, many deep-sea monsters suddenly emerged from the calm sea surface.
Qi Yingxuan exclaimed in surprise upon seeing this: "Damn it, this shameless bastard, he can't beat the fourth brother and he even called for help!"
Jun Wuduan sneered. If he hadn't considered that this sea was connected to other sea areas, and that if he had poisoned it, it wouldn't just pollute this place, nor would it just poison these strange beasts. He would have already used the medicine to wipe them all out.
However, just because he is unable to take action does not mean that others are unable to either.
"Second brother, go fry the fish."
Xiang Yueqi was stunned for a few seconds before she realized what Jun Wuduan meant. This place was the sea, which was the base camp for these strange beasts, giving them a natural advantage.
However, this advantage, if used well, can easily turn into a disadvantage.
Having figured this out, Xiang Yueqi suddenly took out eight magical artifacts from his newly crafted storage ring, held them between his fingers, crossed his hands, and flung them out in one go.
Bang—Sizzle—Splash—
These magical artifacts include explosive artifacts with powerful explosive force, as well as some electrified artifacts used to repel alien beasts and render them incapacitated.
Explosives are fire-based and are very effective on land, but their effectiveness is greatly reduced underwater. However, when combined with these electrified magical artifacts, it becomes a different story.
The black dragon itself is powerful and has black scales protecting its body, so it is naturally not afraid of being blown up or electrocuted, but the underlings it summons are a different story.
Before long, everyone could smell the aromas of grilled fish, grilled octopus, and grilled clams spreading through the air.
If the timing hadn't been wrong, even those who had been busy all day and hadn't had a chance to eat would have succumbed to the temptation and grabbed some food to eat.
Seeing this, Ye Wanxi breathed a sigh of relief and praised with a faint smile, "Second Senior Brother's magic weapon is getting more and more powerful."
Xiang Yueqi chuckled sheepishly after being praised like that: "It's just that these strange beasts are too weak."
Seeing that he couldn't help, Qi Yingxuan said sourly, "Ha, electrofishing is illegal! Second brother, you should think about how much fine you'll have to pay when you get back."
Everyone: "..."
