Monster life starting from picking up materials

But his condition at this moment was not optimistic. His heavy body fell to the ground. Not to mention the wounds, blood was even flowing from under his intact skin scales.

There were shock injuries inside the body cavity, and physical strength was also rapidly draining away.

"Hi~his~"

The snake's tongue spitted out from its mouth, and the head and neck of the Snake Emperor Dragon had already explored the abyss. Its claws gathered strength again, and it drove its body to slowly crawl into the abyss.

Its body was entangled with several sword mountains in the abyss, and it was wriggling steadily towards the bottom of the abyss. From time to time, it arched its body and regurgitated the cud, trying to spit out the mantis in its stomach.

After filling his stomach with stones, this action began to be effective. The stones mixed with gastric juice rose and fell, constantly squeezing Ji Jie who wanted to attack the Snake Emperor Dragon's heart.

Not only was it ruminating, the Snake Emperor Dragon's heart was also rebelling.

The heartbeats were like earthquakes, bombarding the knot lying in the esophagus. White particles also seeped into the flesh and blood with the heartbeats, causing the wound to heal rapidly.

These particles showed destruction in the Snake Emperor Dragon's breath and rebirth in the Snake Emperor Dragon's heart.

The more Ji Jie attacked, the stronger the white light in his perception became, following the beat of the Snake Emperor Dragon's heart.

"Is this the legendary Dragon God Jade that can recreate the world?"

The claws pierced into the healed scab, but pulling up the flesh became increasingly difficult.

Before he fell into the Snake Emperor Dragon's mouth, his tail was cut off and he was bitten by the Snake Emperor Dragon. He was also in a bad state due to the dizzying rotation.

Seeing that the rocks were about to roll over again, Ji Jie gave up attacking this section of the esophagus and instead began to climb upwards, and found the place where he had originally excavated the Snake Emperor Dragon's breath organ.

Compared to the strong regenerative ability of the heart segment, the situation here is completely opposite. The residual energy after the exhalation is rampant and burnt.

The charred flesh was torn apart, and the Snake Emperor Dragon's breathing organ was exposed. The dragon jade inside it carried the power of destruction and extended an invitation to Ji Jie.

The dragon jade located in the breathing organ is very large. In terms of volume alone, it is half the size of a mantis. Even the big mouth of a dragon like Honglong would be stuck in its throat.

The hooked claws struck the dragon jade, struggling to pull it out of the shrunken flesh.

"Roar!!"

The Snake Emperor Dragon cried out in pain, and its huge body twitched and fell to the ground. Ji Jie couldn't hold it tightly, and Long Yugu rolled twice. Frightened, he quickly pounced and grabbed it.

He didn't want to go back into the Snake Emperor Dragon's stomach to look for this thing, and he never wanted to enter the monster's belly again in his life.

While holding the dragon jade, one claw pulled out a silk thread from the broken abdomen and tail, wrapped it around the dragon jade and the claw, and tied it to the mantis arm.

Carrying the dragon jade, Ji Jie quickly crawled out of the Snake Emperor Dragon's esophagus and reached his throat.

After teasing the Snake Emperor Dragon's uvula casually, the Snake Emperor Dragon actually opened its big mouth consciously, revealing the darkness at the bottom of the abyss.

Ji Jie didn't dare to be careless, fearing that the other party would bite him when he went out. He broke the silk thread with his mantis arm and exerted force suddenly to knock Long Yu out of the Snake Emperor Dragon's mouth first.

"Crack!"

Sure enough, at the moment when Long Yu was about to roll out, the Snake Emperor Dragon bit down, and his sharp fangs held Long Yu firmly.

"Tsk, you still don't give up."

Ji Jie stepped on the jaw bed of the Snake Emperor Dragon, slightly bent his arms, and hit the stuck dragon jade hard.

"Kaka~"

The Snake Emperor Dragon's teeth trembled slightly, but were still broken by Ge Mantis's continuous mantis punches. The Dragon Jade also rolled outwards, and the light it emitted illuminated a corner of the abyss.

Looking at the mouth that was closing naturally, Ji Jie raised his claws and hit the Snake Emperor Dragon's gums hard.

"Roar!"

The Snake Emperor Dragon wailed and opened its mouth. Ji Jie seized the opportunity and flew out, landing on Qianjian's dragon jade. He turned around and looked at the weak Snake Emperor Dragon.

The slender body of the mantis swelled up, and it first transformed into a nemesis to guard against the attack. After confirming that the snake emperor dragon was not in an attacking posture, it transformed into a larger ghost dragon.

The pain in the tail end is still reminding me of the end of the season, and at this point I can’t open champagne at halftime.

The Dark Lantern Dragon held the Dragon Jade of Thousand Swords in his arms. The destructive power radiating from the Dragon Jade tickled his body. The slight pain was as pleasant as an itch, tempting Ji Jie to absorb more of it.

But the Snake Emperor Dragon was watching, with red spots all over the black snake's body, and its eye sockets were swollen and bloodshot, as if it was about to choose someone to devour in the next moment.

But he still did not launch an attack. The painful scars inside and outside his body were warning him that the call of death had come from afar.

The Snake Emperor Dragon stared at the Dark Lantern Dragon in front of him, which was emitting a faint blue light. The light of life seemed to have established a transit station on the existence in front of him, making the call of the dragon tomb clearer.

Finally, he glared at Ji Jie fiercely, arched a part of his body, and used his long snake body to push his head and rotate it completely. He dug through the earth and drilled into it at a high speed, until he reached a place deeper than the abyss.

At the deepest part of the Thousand Swords Mountain, the young King Snake Dragon wanted to climb out of the ground, but was blocked by the coiled body of the Snake Emperor Dragon. He brushed the King Snake Dragon's body with the tail of his sword for the last time, and then headed towards the distant north without any regrets.

It is both a response to the call of death and an opportunity to seek healing for oneself.

Chapter 540 Xia Bao’s Dexterity Test was a great success.

In the abyss, Ji Jie waited for a long time. Only after the earthquake aftermath caused by the Snake Emperor Dragon's activities completely disappeared from his perception did he relax and pay attention to the dragon jade he was holding.

Following the Dark Dragon's instinctive desire, he began to absorb the energy from it.

The pure white halo immersed in the dark blue ocean. The energy in the dragon jade was not gentle. It was churning violently in the body, destroying the ocean where it was now residing.

Ji Jie could clearly feel these energies passing through his body and blood vessels, leaving bright scars like branding irons.

The energy of the earth veins surged out with the trembling of the earth vein source crystal, submerging and soaking the scars. The endless itching in the scars made his nerves jump wildly, and he could hardly suppress the desire to tear off the scabs.

But he didn't need to tear the scabs off; they fell off on their own, layer by layer.

Ji Jie wanted to move his body, but unexpectedly found that he was wrapped in something without knowing it.

It's not that the scabs are falling off, but that the shell and epidermis are falling off layer by layer, just like an allergy. The new skin quickly becomes hard and pale, then opens again and fits with the dead skin that has come out.

Layer upon layer of shed skin wrapped around him, blooming and forming a cocoon.

The huge wings of the Dark Dragon had already covered its body like a curtain, becoming the two largest cocoons.

Sleepiness surged up, gradually covering up the itchiness caused by frequent skin shedding.

Faced with this haven that could avoid the itching of shedding skin, Ji Jie chose to accept it in a daze.

Finally, only a cocoon of light was left sleeping in the abyss. With each breath, pale light and dark blue light alternately appeared and then slowly went out.

surface.

After the Snake Emperor Dragon disappeared into the abyss, the airship slowed down its evacuation speed and descended in altitude to pick up the hunters who had not yet evacuated.

After everyone had evacuated, the airship slowly returned to the front-line camp set up earlier.

On the way, the scholars on the Ancient Dragon Observation Ship also began to examine the materials collected from the Snake Emperor Dragon and applied various materials for reaction.

"Newly-grown scales and old scales absorb different attributes. Newly-grown scales are immune to the effects of fire and cold, while old scales are immune to water and fire."

On the left and right hands of the female scholar were two kinds of scale materials, one was an old scale that had fallen off, and the other was a fragment of a new sword scale.

"If the new scales represent Serpent Emperor Dragon, then the old scales represent its pre-molt state, Serpent King Dragon."

"But like with most ancient dragons, the dragon attribute is particularly effective."

Guild Dark Night nodded, turned back following the scholar's gaze, and found his assigned deputy, an instructor of the Kingdom's Knights. He stood aside quietly and seriously, with the rigidity unique to older knights.

Seeing him looking over, the Knight Instructor slowly spoke:

"We've arrived at the campsite, and you should prepare for work in advance."

Noticing the hunter's gaze, the knight spoke.

--the other side--

At this time, Nana was wandering around Qianjian Mountain, her eyes wandering between the towering mountain tops and the bottomless abyss, with worry in her eyes.

She did not see the tragic scene of Ji Jie being swallowed by the Snake Emperor Dragon, but the Snake Emperor Dragon's howl of pain resounded through the sky, and the sound of its struggle brought a strong earthquake to the surrounding area.

"Wow~"

Along with the cry, a purple figure emerged from the air. Xia Bao's tongue was exposed. She put down the bottles and jars hanging on her tongue, and her eyes narrowed slightly with a hint of flattery.

"Roar?"

Nana stared at the bottles and jars in a daze, then lowered her head and sniffed, smelling the aroma of seasonings and a strong scent of medicinal herbs.

The seasonings are for her, and these medicinal herbs are Xialong's favorite foods.

But where did these things come from in this remote wilderness where earthquakes frequently occur?

She looked at Xia Bao with some suspicion.

Xia Bao tilted her head and looked into the distance.

There were several pointed tents there, which were the front-line camps set up by the hunters.

And he, after only drinking Nana's soup a few times, was able to determine the ingredients of the seasonings added to it, and successfully collected them from the nests of those upright monsters!

After confirming that Xiao Xialong could find the ingredients by herself, Nana blinked and gave Xiao Xialong an approving look.

She likes this kind of monster that brings food to honor her.

After receiving the affirmation, Xia Bao flapped its wings happily, but was soon attracted by something that appeared in the air.

Airships were flying in the sky and descending towards the hunters' camp.

"Roar."

Nana also saw the airships and swept her tail at Xia Bao, signaling him to follow her and leave.

The wilderness was vast and lacked obstacles, so the people on the airship also captured the figures of the two ancient dragons.

"Flame Queen Dragon... and Xia Dragon?"

"They, are they traveling together? This is incredible, but what about the Flame King Dragon?"

The female scholar followed the sound of the crowd's discussion to the terrace, and searched around with her eyes centered on the Flame Queen Dragon, but she did not find the expected red figure.

She was very interested in the Fire Dragon. After all, the original mission of the Ancient Dragon Observation Ship was to track the Fire Dragon from the New World.

"If I remember correctly, the report from the duo investigating the migration of the Xialong mentioned the existence of a half-grown Xialong. Judging from what I just saw, he should be in his juvenile stage."

A scholar on the side added.

"Hmm, it's amazing that a young ancient dragon would choose to interact with an adult ancient dragon of another species."

"That guild leader, Dark Night, should have seen them as well. He might have dispatched some more personnel to investigate."

Studying powerful and mysterious individuals like "Xingchen" and Snake Emperor Dragon has brought a lot of pressure to scholars. At this time, seeing Xiaoxia Dragon following Yanfei Dragon, he is more interested in this interesting and relaxing subject.

Yan Feilong seemed to have seen them as well, and quickly disappeared from their sight with Xiao Xialong.

The airship also lost its wide field of vision as it descended in altitude. A wooden ladder tied with ropes connected the observation ship to the land.

The female scholar had just walked down the wooden ladder, stomped her feet to regain her physical balance, and after briefly enjoying the satisfaction of being supported by the earth, she walked into the camp.

As soon as she entered the camp, she saw the hunters stationed in the camp and the guild Dark Night talking about something in the center of the camp.

When we got closer, we heard that it was Xialong that attacked the camp.

"Are there any casualties?"

"There were no casualties. He didn't attack the hunters who spotted him, but quickly escaped."

It can't really be called an attack. It's more in line with Xialong's description that the other party looted the camp.

Xialong always likes to rob human caravans and hunter camps. This kind of thing is common in areas where Xialong appears.

……

Chapter 541 Xia Bao’s stealth test was a great success.

"The stolen items were mainly medicinal herbs, and some... uh, condiments."

As he spoke, the hunter handed the list of lost items to An Ye, paused, and then spoke:

"A hunter in the camp went out to investigate, intending to see if there was any chance of recovering the lost property. From his description, the vaguely revealed figure of the Mist Dragon wasn't very large."

"It's impossible to catch it. We just saw from the sky that the Xialong has returned to the Yanfeilong. The hunter should be on his way back now."

An Ye raised his eyebrows and shook his head slightly.

"Flame Queen Dragon?!"
