Wang Qiuchi still had that excited smile on his face and was talking non-stop.
However, the expressions on everyone's faces changed dramatically at that moment.
Their eyes were wide open, like copper bells, staring intently at what was behind Wang Qiuchi, their eyes filled with fear.
For they saw the giant dragon, its body pierced by numerous swords, suddenly unleash a powerful force. This force, like a surging wave, instantly dislodged all the swords deeply embedded in its body.
The swords detached from the weapon, spinning rapidly in the air, flashing with chilling light like deadly projectiles, heading straight for those who had tried to kill it. Those people were still immersed in the fleeting joy of Wang Qiuchi's so-called "victory," and had no time to react.
With several muffled thuds, the sword mercilessly pierced their bodies. Bright red blood gushed from the wounds, drawing streaks in the air, a truly gruesome scene.
Those people still wore expressions of shock and fear, but their bodies had already lost all life, and they fell from the sky like kites with broken strings.
But the dragon itself was completely unharmed!
The dragon raised its massive body high, like a towering mountain peak standing in the air. It opened its blood-red maw and let out a deafening roar. The roar seemed to have a powerful penetrating force, making everyone's ears ring.
Even more chillingly, while everyone was still reeling from this sudden terror, they saw a dozen more identical dragons flying toward them from behind the first dragon, like a black torrent.
This scene terrified everyone present, turning their faces ashen. Some of the more timid ones collapsed to the ground, their eyes filled with fear and helplessness. They never imagined that things would unfold so unexpectedly.
What was supposed to be an easy hunt has now turned into a terrible disaster.
"A Chi Dragon...it really is a Chi Dragon! Bai Ying wasn't lying..."
Upon hearing these people's words, Wang Qiuchi's expression instantly turned ugly.
"Stop messing around! I already said it's just a dragon. What nonsense are you talking about!"
But the group of people were terrified and shouted, "Run!"
Wang Qiuchi frowned, turned his head speechlessly, and then saw the dragon suddenly bite a person next to it and swallow him whole. This scene happened too suddenly. The people present had not yet recovered from the fear of the giant dragon breaking free of its restraints and the flock of dragons flying in when they witnessed such a bloody and horrifying scene.
The companion of the person being swallowed stood frozen in place, as if his soul had been ripped out, before letting out a heart-wrenching scream, "No!"
Suddenly, someone shouted, "Run, everyone!" In an instant, everyone seemed to be driven by an invisible, powerful force. They no longer cared about manners or posture, and without even looking back, they ran frantically in all directions.
Wang Qiuchi's smug expression froze instantly, his eyes widening in disbelief as he stared at what was happening before him. His once proud head drooped slightly, and his hand gripping the sword trembled slightly. But his unwillingness and stubbornness still lingered, and he gritted his teeth, forcing himself to remain calm as he roared, "Don't be afraid, everyone! It's just a beast; we'll definitely take it down!"
He turned around, intending to use the same tactics he had used against the flood dragons to deal with the giant dragon in front of him.
He quickly pulled out his most powerful magical artifact from his storage bag. With all his might, he slammed it down on the dragon.
However, reality delivered a resounding slap to his face. The dragon merely tilted its head slightly, opened its blood-red maw, and met the flying magical artifact with a single bite, crushing it to pieces. In an instant, the crisp, piercing sound of the artifact shattering echoed through the air.
Wang Qiuchi froze on the spot, her eyes wide open, filled with fear and confusion, completely unable to believe what was happening before her eyes.
He raised his hand tremblingly, pointing at the dragon, his lips shaking, but he couldn't utter a single word for a long time. He knew perfectly well that his magical artifact was meticulously forged from precious black iron, making it exceptionally hard, but now, in front of this dragon, it was as fragile as a piece of paper, easily destroyed.
Only at this moment did Wang Qiuchi awaken from his dream.
He finally truly believed that the dragon in front of him was not the Jiaolong he had thought it to be, but a Chilong that was many times more powerful than a Jiaolong.
Bai Ying was not lying.
Fear overwhelmed him instantly like a tidal wave; his legs began to weaken, and his heart pounded wildly in his chest, as if it were about to burst out of his chest.
Wang Qiuchi was utterly terrified. His survival instinct kicked in, and he immediately turned around, desperately trying to escape. His steps were frantic and hurried as he scrambled away, screaming in terror. However, the speed of the Chilong was far beyond what a human cultivator could match. Its massive body streaked through the air like a black shadow, instantly closing in. Before Wang Qiuchi had gone far, the Chilong had already bitten his shoulder.
A piercing, terrifying scream erupted from Wang Qiuchi, a sound that seemed to pierce the heavens. Half of his body had been torn apart, bitten off entirely at the shoulder, leaving a bloody mess where blood gushed forth like a fountain, staining his clothes crimson and dripping onto the ground to form a pool of blood. The excruciating pain nearly made Wang Qiuchi faint, but his will to survive gave him a final burst of strength as he struggled desperately, continuing to flee.
However, countless more dragons flew in from all directions, far exceeding the speed of all of them. They had no chance of escape!
At this moment, those present realized the terror of the dragon. They screamed in terror, shouted loudly, and felt extremely regretful.
Bai Ying had clearly warned them, so why didn't they escape? Why did they still believe Wang Qiuchi and watch helplessly as he destroyed the formation Bai Ying had set up?
