Chapter 18: Lightning and the Dragon

The "alive" metal snake became soft and swam around the jade bracelet that was emitting blood-red light.

Three pairs of blood-jade snake eyes flickered and then lit up.

“Wow!”

A three-headed snake blood soul, about six or seven meters long and as thick as a bowl, flew out from the inside of the metal snake. It had broad wings and flew straight towards Li Weiyi who was rushing towards them.

It’s so huge!

The smell of blood is pungent, with a hint of wind, which is very frightening.

But it was very faint, like fog.

Obviously, Director Yang did not know the real method of activating the three-headed snake bracelet. He just discovered by accident that a weak wisp of snake soul could be released through blood sacrifice during his trial and error.

For mortals, being able to control a wisp of snake soul is already quite a feat.

"Why is there such a strange thing?"

This blood soul was simply a ghost, huge and ferocious. Li Weiyi dared not touch it, and immediately dodged and ran away.

Fortunately, he had extraordinary adaptability and footwork, and was fast enough to avoid the attack of the three-headed snake blood soul and pull out the yellow dragon sword that was inserted into the old man's heart.

In his mind, the scene of “the Yellow Dragon Sword cutting the long hair of the white bone demon, turning it into mist instantly” flashed through his mind.

This sword is definitely a magical weapon that can restrain demons and evil spirits.

Li Weiyi mobilized the scorching airflow from the center of his right foot and poured it into the Yellow Dragon Sword.

A faint yellow light appeared on the sword's edge.

As he was running away, he stopped in an instant as if he had eyes on the back of his head, and turned around abruptly. The long sword in his hand swung upward, leaving a crescent-shaped arc-shaped sword mark, and accurately slashed the three-headed snake blood soul that was chasing and swooping down from behind.

The judgment was extremely accurate, as if the blood soul had actively collided with the edge of his sword.

The leftmost head of the three-headed snake blood soul began to burn where it was cut by the Yellow Dragon Sword.

In an instant.

The already faint head could no longer maintain its shape and turned into wisps of mist.

After a successful attack, Li Weiyi no longer had any fear of the unknown in his heart. His eyes were full of fighting spirit. He strode forward and actually chased after the three-headed snake blood soul and chopped it.

For a moment, sand and rocks flew everywhere on the ground.

It has wings, but cannot fly high.

The scene was just like a mortal chasing a demon.

Countless people present were shocked by this scene.

A member of the 705 laboratory tried to pick up the shotgun, but was pinned to the ground by Gao Huan and other expedition members who had untied the ropes. The pretty female graduate student picked up the shotgun as if it were a burning coal, ran to the side of the ship, and threw it into the sea.

By the time Gao Huan saw it and yelled to stop her, it was too late.

That was a gun, the last gun on the ship with bullets left.

The female student was frightened by Gao Huan's roar, and she squatted on the ground beside the ship, holding her head and trembling.

No matter what, all the scientific expedition members had sharp eyes and knew who to trust. When Xie Tianshu, Chen Hong, Kong Fan and others committed the crime, why didn't they see the people from the 705 laboratory come out to stop them? In order to maintain the blood soul of the three-headed snake, Director Yang lost a lot of blood, his body continued to shrink, and he gradually became so weak that he knelt on the ground.

But it was useless, the three-headed snake blood soul was no match for Li Weiyi.

It was soon cut into several pieces and disappeared into thin air.

While Li Weiyi was fighting with the three-headed snake blood soul, the middle-aged lady with glasses from the 705 laboratory calmly took off her coat, revealing the scripture belt tied around her body.

The belt is bright yellow, two inches wide, and covered with dense scriptures.

The 705 laboratory had been observing the bronze ship for many years, and they were the first to arrive at the location of the skeletons after they fell on the ship. Therefore, several immortal objects were taken away by them.

The middle-aged lady took out a small bottle of Golden Crow blood and poured it on the scripture belt.

The "blood sacrifice" method of the Scripture Belt is different from that of the Three-Headed Snake Bracelet. It only requires the blood of dead animals.

“Wow——”

As the Golden Crow's blood soaked into her body, some of the scriptures on the belt immediately emitted a bloody glow, and her entire body seemed to be shrouded in a faint blood mist.

The scientific expedition team members who rushed forward to restrain her were about to pounce on her, but suddenly their eyes blurred and she appeared several steps away.

He is obviously just an ordinary person, but with the help of the scripture belt, his body movement and speed have become extremely amazing.

Before Li Weiyi could kill the three-headed snake blood soul, the middle-aged lady was approaching.

After the three-headed snake's blood soul was broken into several pieces and dissipated, the middle-aged lady had already taken out a fist-sized black iron seal and stamped it on the ground only six or seven steps away from Li Wei.

"boom!"

Thunder roared.

A bright and winding stream of lightning flew out from the bottom of the black iron seal and headed straight towards Li Weiyi.

The black iron seal and scripture belt were both obtained from the human skeleton whose bones were almost as white as gold and jade. They were of extremely high quality, and even if one did not know the special way to activate them, they could still unleash considerable power.

Li Weiyi had a keen sense and without time to turn around, he immediately rolled to the side and narrowly avoided the lightning.

There was a burnt area on the left shoulder of the clothes, the fabric was carbonized, and the skin was burning.

It was just a little bit away from being hit in the neck or head.

Although the black iron seal was extremely powerful, it required a heavy blow to release the lightning. Moreover, because the middle-aged woman did not know how to truly control it, when she released the lightning, a fine electric current also flowed into her palm, causing her arm to ache and numb, making it difficult for her to quickly launch a second attack.

Fortunately, the blood light emitted by the scripture belt protected me, otherwise my arm would have been more than just painful and numb.

After dodging the lightning, Li Weiyi approached the middle-aged lady like a flying monkey.

“Swish!”

Her body movement was so fast that it was like an illusion. She avoided Li Weiyi's first sword and only cut off a strand of hair.

You know, Li Weiyi has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, so her body movements and moves have become extraordinary under the blessing of the hot air flow, and she has the demeanor of a martial arts master. But she can turn decay into magic just by activating the scripture belt, which is incredible.

The two were wary of each other. Sometimes she ran away, and sometimes Li Weiyi retreated.

On the other side, Gao Huan and others were eager to help the scientific expedition team members untie their bonds. No one noticed that Xie Tianshu, who had his arm cut off and was lying in a pool of blood, was undergoing earth-shaking changes.

The dragon-patterned ring he wore on his thumb absorbed the blood flowing from the severed arm, and the dragon pattern turned blood red, flashing a faint bloody glow.

His heart resonated with the frequency of the flashing dragon pattern, and his blood flow became slower and slower.

The wound on the broken arm stopped bleeding.

Dense and cold scales grew on his skin, and his forehead swelled up unevenly, forming irregular lines like coral.

…

Li Weiyi soon discovered that the middle-aged lady could not always use the black iron seal.

After only using it four times, her entire hand had turned black and was shaking uncontrollably.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The bloody light emanating from the scripture belt was also fading rapidly.

"You don't know how to use these immortal objects at all. Every time you use them, the damage to your body will become worse." Li Weiyi realized that if she used it again, her entire arm would be crippled.

There is no need to fight her head-on. Once the bloody light from the Scripture Belt dissipates, she will naturally no longer be a threat.

“Ouch!”

A high-pitched roar, like that of a wolf, a tiger, and a dragon, resounded throughout the bronze ship.

Li Weiyi, the middle-aged lady, and many members of the scientific expedition team were all shocked and looked at Xie Tianshu who had already climbed up from the ground.

A pair of eyeballs seemed to be about to fall to the ground.

In the faint dark mist, Xie Tianshu still had one arm, but his body had expanded to a height of two meters seven or two meters eight, and almost all of his clothes were torn to pieces.

The skin turns into black scales the size of a fingernail.

The only remaining left hand turned into a sharp and huge claw.

The feet also showed abnormalities, with the soles of the feet becoming twice as wide.

The dragon-patterned ring was worn on the claw, and the light was even brighter. A blood dragon woven with dragon patterns swam on the ring like a living creature.

Some members of the scientific expedition team screamed, some felt weak in the knees, and some ran away.

They had been frightened by Xie Tianshu before, so it goes without saying that Xie Tianshu now must be even more terrifying.

"Did he...did he secretly drink the dragon's blood?"

"Scales, claws, head... it's really possible. His body is clearly changing in the direction of a black dragon."

"How dare he?"

…

"Li Weiyi, thanks to you, my broken arm cannot be regrown with the blood of the black dragon corpse or the dragon-patterned ring."

After being transformed into a dragon-like form, Xie Tianshu took heavy steps and rushed towards Li Weiyi at an increasingly faster speed, his eyes as big as wine glasses filled with anger.

It arrived in the blink of an eye, swung its claws towards Li Weiyi's head, and created a strong wind.

Li Weiyi took a step back and the sharp claws scratched across the tip of his nose.

In recent days, he has experienced too many inexplicable strange things. Even though Xie Tianshu is almost demonized at this moment, Li Weiyi can still look at it calmly.

After avoiding the claw, he took a step forward and slashed Xie Tianshu in the chest with his sword.

"Ding! Ding! Ding..."

The sword tip collided with the black scales on his chest, creating countless sparks, but only left a shallow mark.

Xie Tianshu stepped back quickly, and when he found that he was not injured, he laughed happily: "I have dragon scales to protect me, what can you do to me? Don't worry, I won't let you die too easily."

Li Weiyi looked at the Yellow Dragon Sword in his hand.

"Without the scorching air current in my body to urge it, the Yellow Dragon Sword is only slightly sharper than ordinary swords. It cannot break at the touch of a finger."

Not far away, the middle-aged lady from the 705 laboratory took out another bottle of Golden Crow Blood and prepared to pour it on the scripture belt.

Li Weiyi noticed this scene out of the corner of his eye and rushed over quickly, taking one step at a time.

"Want to escape?"

Xie Tianshu strode after him.

The footsteps were so heavy that the ground was shaking slightly.

"puff!"

Li Weiyi chopped off the middle-aged woman's head with a sword, and without any hesitation, he snatched the black iron seal from her hand. He turned around and knelt on one knee, looked up at Xie Tianshu who was chasing him, and slammed the seal to the ground.

“Boom!”

Accompanied by a thunder.

A bright stream of light flew out from the bottom of the seal and hit Xie Tianshu.

Xie Tianshu flew backwards, his body turned even darker...

Some of it was burnt, and smoke was coming out of it all over.

Li Weiyi was not feeling well either. He was attacked by the lightning in the seal, and his entire arm was numb and painful, and he lost at least half of his sensation.

"This seal is definitely not meant to be used like this. She is just messing around!"
