Xiuxian: But It's Not a Game

Chapter 129 Hunting the Demonic Dragon
He asked Luo Qingchan in a low voice:
"If we make a move, can we steal the kill?"

Luo Qingchan's eyes flickered, somewhat surprised:

"You want to steal the BOSS?"

"The essence of the Crimson Tide, there's no rule that it belongs to them, is there?"

"But we probably won't be able to get it!"

Luo Qingchan shook her head and said:

"Although I can break through their defenses, I can't overpower them by myself, and once we make a move, they will definitely send people to intercept us."

Su Yu was aware of this as well. He remained silent for a moment before saying:
"Let me show you something."

While she was puzzled, Su Yu shared the attributes of his Supreme Dragon Transformation Immortal Bone with her, including the attributes of transforming into a true dragon.

Having spent so much time together, he had come to understand Luo Qingchan's personality to some extent; she was the kind of person who could keep secrets.

When Luo Qingchan saw Su Yu's attribute panel as a true dragon, she couldn't help but widen her eyes, even though she was usually very calm and rarely surprised. However, to her surprise, although she was somewhat surprised, she wasn't as surprised as she had imagined. Instead, she seemed to have a sudden realization.

"So what I saw last time wasn't a hallucination after all!"

"You saw it last time?"

"I saw a little bit, but I'm not sure."

"Ok."

Su Yu closed the panel and asked:

"If I transform into a dragon, can I snatch the demon dragon's head?"

"of course can."

Having confirmed that Su Yu could transform into a true dragon, Luo Qingchan also became interested and said:
"I have a sword that can instantly kill a monster with 150 million HP, but it takes time to activate and the target is fixed. I need you to hold the demon dragon back for a while!"

Su Yu immediately said:

“No problem. The demon dragon’s power will be greatly weakened after it is seriously injured. I can keep it occupied.”

"Then do it!"

After discussing their strategy, the two steered the Azure Sinking Boat slowly closer to the battlefield, stopping more than ten kilometers away.

The area was full of players, and some of the bolder ones were just watching the game. Their arrival went unnoticed by anyone.

As soon as I stopped, I heard someone next door shouting:

"Have the Hailong Guild gone mad? This wave of attacks will surely kill at least two or three hundred thousand of their guild members. How can they possibly come up with that much money to compensate their own guild members?"

"That's not a big problem, since it's not like they're from the same guild. The main issue is that if the loot dropped by the boss doesn't meet our expectations, then we'll suffer a huge loss."

"There's no need to worry about that. This demonic dragon is extraordinary. It's not only a true dragon, but it has also survived the tribulation of the Earth Immortal. There's a high probability that it will produce a ninth-grade essence, which can be upgraded into a ninth-order flying sword or magic weapon. In addition, the demonic dragon's bones are over ten kilometers long, which can be used to forge a super warship."

"In addition, there must be a Dragon Ball that can be used to refine magic weapons of the eighth rank or higher."

"Multiple portions of true dragon blood essence, dragon's reverse scale, true dragon scale, and dragon tendons, among other precious materials."

"These are all basic outputs. If you're lucky, you might directly get a finished eighth-tier or higher magic weapon. All things considered, the gains are definitely worth the effort."

The man chuckled and said:

"There's no need to worry about any of that. What they're more concerned about is whether they can kill the demon dragon. If they can't kill it, or if someone else steals the kill, that would be a huge loss."

"Who can compete with them for this?"

"That's hard to say. The Crimson Tide BOSS doesn't belong to them. Anyone can take it. When the BOSS is low on health, someone will definitely make a move. Then it's all about luck. Even if you only get one piece of loot, it's still a huge profit."

"really!"

"If it were me, I would definitely try my luck too."

"You're overthinking it. Why would they do the work for outsiders? Just wait, they'll definitely clear the area out in a bit."

"What are you afraid of? The area is so large, they can't do it."

"Huh, the red tide is about to pass."

Su Yu and the others, who were engrossed in listening to the gossip, all turned around and saw that the crimson clouds in the east were slowly disappearing and soon passed over them. The three days of darkness suddenly turned into a clear blue sky.

Looking westward, the endless, surging red tide is rapidly crossing Flying Star Island and moving into the distance.

"It really is over."

Despite their reflections, many players immediately plunged back into the Red Tide to continue watching the battle.

The Azure Boat flew into the Crimson Tide and saw that the demonic dragon within the Crimson Tide moved with the tide. Hundreds of thousands of players from the Sea Dragon Guild Alliance also changed the battlefield with the demonic dragon. It seemed that it wouldn't be long before they left Flying Star Island and entered the vast ocean.

"The demonic dragon cannot leave the Red Tide; it will definitely leave with the Red Tide. Once it enters the sea, it will be the true dragon's home ground, making it even more difficult to fight."

The high-ranking members of the Flying Star Guild Alliance, led by the Sea Dragon Society, were gathered together. Among them, a distinguished young man with gleaming eyes spoke in a deep voice:

"We can't wait any longer. We must use whatever means we have now and kill the demonic dragon in one fell swoop!"

Another guild leader, who also possessed the extraordinary characteristics of a wandering immortal, nodded and said:

"Tell everyone to play all their cards and not hold back anything."

"I'll go inform them!"

The man nodded and continued:

"Order: Each alliance guild shall order its own guild team to maintain order and drive all non-alliance members to a distance of 100 miles to prevent anyone from stealing the final blow from the BOSS."

The order was issued and passed down through the ranks, and many guild alliance members dispersed to begin clearing the area and persuading others to leave.

Soon, a team from the Flying Star Guild Alliance flew towards them, and someone shouted from afar: "Flying Star Guild Alliance activity, now clearing the area, please cooperate and leave, otherwise you will be considered an enemy of the alliance and will be driven away by force."

"The Flying Star Guild Alliance event is now being cleared. Please cooperate and leave. Otherwise, you will be considered an enemy of the alliance and will be forcibly expelled."

As teams persuaded or threatened, many spectators began to retreat.

Most players are just watching the show; they know they can't steal kills even if they want to, so they won't stubbornly go against the guild.

Those who have this idea won't fight back head-on; they'll all withdraw first and then try to sneak over quietly.

Su Yu and Luo Qingchan were no exception; they cooperated by urging the Azure Sinking Boat to leave.

After moving a distance away, it immediately turned and plunged back into the red tide from another direction, then quickly moved forward, rushing out of Flying Star Island and into the vast sea.

The ocean was also shrouded in a red tide, filled with countless aquatic spirits, who were fighting against the sea monsters.

Su Yu said to Luo Qingchan:

"You don't need to go there yet. Continue forward for about a thousand miles and find a place to wait. I'll go check on the dragon's condition first."

She nodded and urged the Azure Sinking Boat to continue forward.

Su Yu then transformed into a celestial ghost, turning from reality into illusion, becoming a wisp of smoke that disappeared into the sea, flying towards the direction of the demonic dragon.

Along the way, they encountered aquatic spirits and red tide spirits from time to time, but most of them failed to spot the wisp of smoke in the sea.

Before long, Qingyan arrived at the designated area silently and saw that many guild alliance patrol teams were clearing out sea spirits and intercepting players who might come to take advantage of the situation.

"It really is perfect from every angle."

He shook his head. A wisp of smoke slowly rose into the air. There was nothing on the sea, but he could hear the rapidly approaching roar of a dragon.

About ten minutes later, an invisible force swept across the clearing red tide, and a demonic dragon that was fighting and retreating appeared in the air. Su Yu immediately checked the dragon's attributes and found that its health was only a little over 1320 million.

At this moment, the Flying Star Guild Alliance has gathered hundreds of rogue immortals and tens of thousands of experts with decent strength to besiege the BOSS, using all sorts of methods to wear down the demon dragon's health.

Su Yu's gaze fell on the demonic dragon. Countless runes were intertwined and wrapped around the dragon's body, greatly reducing its defenses. Attacks that were previously impenetrable could now penetrate its defenses.

"Wait a little longer!"

There's still too much health left.

The demonic dragon's attack methods were somewhat lacking, consisting of gathering demonic lightning and spewing dragon breath, unlike Su Yu's ability to summon wind and rain when he transformed into a dragon.

Those were the innate supernatural abilities of the demon dragon in its previous life. After dying once and being transformed into its essence by the Crimson Tide, it could no longer use many of the dragon race's supernatural abilities.

Although dragon breath is incredibly powerful, capable of traveling over twenty kilometers in a single burst, it consumes a lot of mana and cannot be used continuously.

The Flying Star Guild alliance's top experts set up a grand formation, prioritizing survival.

The leaders were all rogue immortals, extremely powerful, and each possessed a defensive magic weapon of the seventh rank or higher. In addition, the unknown rune chains restricted the dragon's attack and defense, making it impossible to kill it with one move, let alone have a chance to strike a second time.

As time passed, the dragon's health visibly diminished.

Ten minutes later, 1200 million.

Twenty minutes later, 1050 million.

Half an hour later, 900 million.

An hour later, 500 million.

At this point, the demonic dragon was nearing death, but it was also in its most dangerous stage.

A cornered beast will fight back, and that is the most deadly.

Su Yu glanced deeply at the demonic dragon being besieged by many experts from the Flying Star Guild Alliance, then turned and plunged into the sea to escape, quickly flying towards Luo Qingchan.

Ten minutes later, he met up with Luo Qingchan, who was hundreds of miles away, and said in a deep voice:

"I'll take you into the battlefield later, and you'd better seize the opportunity to unleash that sword!"

"it is good!"

Su Yu turned and jumped into the sea. A dozen seconds later, Luo Qingchan felt a chill and her whole body tensed up. Then she saw the seawater silently part and a crimson dragon emerged from the water. Its two pupils, as bright as the sun, looked down at her, and the terrifying pressure made her gasp for breath.

Seeing the ten-kilometer-long dragon coiled before her eyes, even though she knew it was Su Yu in disguise, she still felt an instinctive fear from the depths of her soul gripping her soul.

"Your ability is amazing!"

Luo Qingchan took a deep breath, soared into the air, and landed on the top of the dragon's head, hiding behind the powerful, curved horns.

"let's go!"

The dragon slowly raised its head, turned its body and soared into the air. The crimson tide was pushed aside by an invisible force, as if it were swimming among the clouds. Its beard curled up fragments of the Milky Way and surrounded its body, and it quickly flew away into the distance.

"Roar!"

The demonic dragon, which was entangled with the Flying Star Guild Alliance, suddenly sensed something, raised its head and looked in a certain direction, roaring continuously.

"What is it doing?"

The many experts who were besieging the dragon looked puzzled and all turned to look in the direction of the dragon's roar.

The doubt on their faces lasted only a few seconds before turning into seriousness and unease.

"Oh no, something big is coming."

"Such a powerful aura, is it another super boss?"

"I don't know, but they don't seem to have any good intentions. Everyone be careful."

"Ignore everything else, this BOSS only has a little over three million HP left, hurry up and take it down."
