The SSSSSSSS-level Mad Dragon is released from prison!

The lightning dissipated.

In the charred crater in the middle of the street, the man in the purple lightning combat suit slowly straightened up.

The electric arcs on his body were still leaping, crackling and scorching the surrounding air.

The pressure from a half-step Grandmaster was like a tangible mountain descending from the sky.

"Click—"

The town's already dilapidated streets cracked inch by inch under this force, with spiderweb-like fissures spreading wildly in all directions.

As Xiao Ruoye carried Jiang Chen on her back, she felt as if an invisible mountain was pressing down on her shoulders, and her bones were groaning.

Junyao's face turned deathly pale. She clung tightly to Shen Suxin's clothes, finding it difficult to even breathe.

Zi Dian didn't look at them; his gaze passed through everyone and landed on the black cloth behind Xiao Ruoye.

"I'll take Jiang Chen's head."

His voice was calm, yet carried a sense of announcing the result.

Before he finished speaking, he raised his hand, and a dazzling purple ball of lightning began to condense in his palm.

The aura of destruction caused the surrounding temperature to drop several degrees.

Xiao Ruoye's eyes were resolute, and the Geng metal energy within her body was pushed to its limit, ready to fight to the death.

A withered hand pressed down on her shoulder.

It was that old beggar.

"Hehe...hehehehe..."

The drug addict, leaning on his bamboo cane, stood in front of everyone, letting out a series of hoarse, bellows-like laughs.

His two dark, hollow eyes stared at the imposing purple lightning in mid-air, showing no fear whatsoever.

"Dragon Guards...what a magnificent sight."

"In the end, he's nothing more than a dog kept by the Imperial Capital family."

Zidian stopped moving, and for the first time, his gaze fell on the dirty beggar.

"court death."

He uttered two words, and his palm, which was gathering lightning, slightly turned, aiming at the Madman Medicine.

The drug addict seemed not to see anything. He raised his withered fingers and frantically pressed several acupoints on his chest with a manic speed.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The dull sound was like someone drumming inside his body.

"A disgraced disciple of Medicine King Valley, he spent his life playing with poison, and his body was covered in poison."

"Today, I'll show you self-proclaimed righteous people what real poison is!"

As he finished speaking, a dark green poisonous mist gushed out from his seven orifices.

The mist carried an indescribable stench, and wherever it passed, the stone slabs on the ground hissed and corroded.

Shen Suxin watched the drug madman's actions, and her body trembled violently.

She recognized the acupressure technique.

The forbidden technique in the "Ten Thousand Poisons Return to Origin Scripture" is "Soul Burning for Life".

At the cost of burning their own soul and life force, they unleashed a hundredfold power in a short period of time by exploding the toxins accumulated throughout their lives.

This is a suicidal move; once it's used, there's absolutely no chance of survival.

Two lines of clear tears slid down her pale face.

"roar--"

The dark green poisonous mist gathered wildly behind the drug madman, eventually coalescing into a ferocious tiger over ten meters tall.

The tiger was entirely emerald green, with two eerie, ghostly flames in its eyes, and it let out a silent roar as it looked up at the sky.

The air itself seemed to vibrate from the roar.

Zi Dian's expression changed slightly. He could feel that his proud Thunder Domain had been torn open by the murderous aura of that poisonous tiger.

"That's interesting."

He no longer held back, and the purple lightning ball in his hand flew out, transforming into a long plasma whip that lashed towards the green tiger with a shriek that tore through the air.

The venomous tiger neither dodged nor avoided, but opened its blood-red maw and swallowed the lightning whip whole.

"boom!"

A violent explosion occurred inside the venomous tiger's body, and purple arcs of electricity shot wildly out from the gaps in its body.

The venomous tiger's massive body swayed, but instead of disintegrating, it became even more solid.

It actually used that violent power of thunder as nourishment!

The drug addict was no longer human; his skin was withered and stuck to his bones, and dark green blood was flowing from his two dark eye sockets.

He turned around abruptly, facing Shen Suxin, and grinned, revealing a smile that was even uglier than a grimace.

"Suxin, consider this... a debt I owed your master, now repaid!"

Having said that, he showed no further hesitation, transforming into a beam of green light and merging into the body of the venomous tiger.

"Aww—"

The venomous tiger let out a deafening roar, and its massive body slammed into the purple lightning.

"not good!"

Zi Dian's expression changed drastically. He sensed a terrifying aura emanating from the poisonous tiger that could threaten his life.

Lightning crackled around him, and he tried to back away.

late.

The drug addict had no intention of engaging in a prolonged fight with him.

What he wanted was to die together with them.

"burst!"

A hoarse word, carrying a sense of relief, came from the body of the poisonous tiger.

next second.

No sound.

The whole world has fallen silent.

Only a patch of light, so green and so bright, swallowed up everyone's vision.

Xiao Ruoye felt an irresistible, destructive force coming from the front. She instinctively shielded Jiang Chen in front of her, using her back to withstand the shockwave.

"puff--"

She spat out a mouthful of blood, and like a kite with a broken string, she was thrown far away, along with Shen Suxin and Jun Yao.

……

I don't know how much time passed.

Xiao Ruoye struggled to get up from the ground, her back burning with pain, as if a layer of skin had been peeled off.

Ignoring her own injuries, she immediately checked on Jiang Chen's condition.

Jiang Chen remained silent beneath the black cloth.

"Su Xin, Jun Yao!"

she shouted anxiously.

Shen Suxin and Jun Yao were shielded beneath her and were only knocked unconscious, but were otherwise unharmed.

Xiao Ruoye shook the two awake and looked back.

The scene before her made her gasp.

The original town has disappeared.

Instead, there is a huge crater with a diameter of over 100 meters.

The bottom of the pit was charred black, with wisps of green smoke rising from it, emitting a highly poisonous odor.

Half a block, along with the Dragon Guards and sentries hidden in the shadows, were reduced to ashes in the self-destruction.

The drug addict used his own life to carve a bloody path for them.

Shen Suxin knelt on the ground, looking at that desolate place, tears silently streaming down her face.

Junyao was so frightened that she couldn't speak.

A trace of grief flashed in Xiao Ruoye's eyes, but she knew that now was not the time to be sad.

"Walk!"

Without further hesitation, she picked Jiang Chen up again, grabbed a girl in each hand, and rushed into the dense primeval forest behind the town without looking back.

The three figures quickly disappeared into the boundless forest.

……

The epicenter of the explosion.

The bottom of the charred pit.

A pile of charred rubble suddenly moved.

A charred hand reached out from the pile of rocks.

Immediately afterwards, a figure covered in black smoke staggered out.

It's Zidian (紫电).

His combat uniform was tattered, revealing his mangled body underneath.

His left side, from shoulder to calf, was almost completely charred, and his left arm was missing.

"Cough...cough cough..."

He coughed violently, each cough bringing up black blood clots and fragments of internal organs.

"A... madman..."

He looked at the area shrouded in poisonous fog, and for the first time, a look of lingering fear appeared on his face, which was blackened by the smoke.

He raised his only intact right hand and took out a cracked purple jade talisman from his pocket.

He used all his strength to pour the last bit of his true energy into the jade talisman.

The jade talisman emitted a faint light, then turned into ashes.

After doing all this, Zidian could no longer hold on and collapsed to the ground, unconscious.

The light from the jade talisman formed a blurry dragon-shaped mark in mid-air, which disappeared in a flash.
