Chapter 109 The Dragon Seed (Request for Subscription)
"roar!"
despite the relentless onslaught from blood blade ji, zhu tianmao kept observing his surroundings, seeking a chance to escape.
when he noticed that the purple dawn crystal further cracked and the 'imperial flame battle dragon' inside opened its eyes, he was shocked to the extreme and felt utter despair.
zhu tianmao had studied many historical records and knew just how powerful that battle dragon was.
6700 years ago on that very night, the battle dragon had torn apart two of the great song's seventh realm famous generals alive during an assault by numerous experts, dealing a severe blow to the great song's southern expedition forces!
"i will kill you!"
zhu tianmao's eyes red, he turned and charged towards lin rui, his body suddenly bursting into flames of blood while releasing astonishing sword qi.
if this guy wanted him dead, then he would go to hell with him!
ji xueying hadn't expected him to turn against lin rui, but her reaction was not slow—the red light of her figure darted towards her master.
"blade, come!"
as ji xueying extended her hand towards the south, the six-foot-long blade 'startling snow' that had been thrown far away flew into her hand, captured by her qi.
"clang!"
with a sharp, ear-piercing clatter of metal followed by an explosion of thunder and fire.
ji xueying's long blade, at a distance of three feet from lin rui's eyes, harshly severed zhu tianmao's sword and flung him three feet away with an unmatched blade force.
her eyes, red as blood jade, blazed with golden thunderous light, staring intensely at zhu tianmao.
nobody could harm her master in front of her; she had sworn that much already!
whoever could save her and her family, ji xueying was determined to dedicate her life, her everything, to repay his kindness.
and her master had done so!
lin rui not only rescued them, ending the calamity in silver moon county, but also gave her the chance for personal revenge!
"kill! kill! kill! kill! kill!"
with increasing murderous intent in her heart, ji xueying fought even more calmly, her thoughts cold as ice.
her blade strokes became swifter and more dangerous. she no longer fought like a wild beast but anticipated the enemy's movements in advance.
ji xueying struck five swift blows, driving zhu tianmao back sixty feet, keeping him far from lin rui. then she unleashed a storm of blades that nearly engulfed this fifth realm expert completely.
at his limits, zhu tianmao fought desperately, incurring wound after wound, blood splattering all over.
—it was lin rui himself who would come back.
how could he possibly neglect such a powerful seventh realm battle dragon?
someday, he would gather one million soul power points and come back to refine this emperor flame battle dragon.
yet one thing concerned him, and he had to clarify it.
"guardian spirit, will i also have my own 'dragon' in the future? if i refine the emperor flame battle dragon, will there be any conflict or overlap?"
the information that subsequently entered his mind brightened lin rui's eyes once more.
instruction 9: after the battle dragon is refined, it can act as a protector spirit. you can personally enter the battle dragon's body to control it, or have the war spirit possess it.
lin rui thought to himself, could it really be like this? the explanations about refining battle dragons from the guardian spirit were even better than he imagined, but what did possessing mean?
he asked the guardian spirit again, but this time he received no response.
the emperor flame battle dragon watched lin rui intently with its sky-blue eyes as if to confirm the truth.
just moments later, it shifted its gaze toward ji xueying.
while the group was uncertain and wondering what it intended to do, the emperor flame battle dragon suddenly plunged its hand into its chest and pulled out a blood-red crystal the size of a fingertip.
"what is this?"
lin rui looked at the red crystal with astonishment in his eyes, sensing that he had seen this object before?
lin rui quickly searched through his biological chip's database.
before he could find the answer, zhang tianchang exclaimed in surprise, "is this perhaps a dragon seed?"
he understood what the emperor flame battle dragon intended to do.
it was known that regular demons could not transform into 'dragons', even those with supremely regal bloodlines like ji xueying's.
cases like ji shenyan were exceptions; she had already transformed into her own dragon before becoming a demon as she was a sixth realm martial cultivator.
moreover, after reaching the 'transforming dragon' stage in the sixth realm of martial cultivation, the possibility of turning into a demon was exceedingly rare, so ji shenyan's situation was quite unusual.
there was also another special case, the 'dragon seed,' given by high-level martial cultivators who controlled battle dragons to allow demons to also transform into their dragons.
indeed, in the next instant, he saw the emperor flame battle dragon suddenly thrust the blood-red crystal violently into ji xueying's chest.
its form was seven zhang high, approximately 21 meters, and its movements were incredibly swift. its large hand was also remarkably agile. ji xueying had no time to react before she was gutted.
however, it had no malicious intent and simply inserted the blood-red crystal into ji xueying's body before withdrawing its hand. it then walked to the center of this underground palace, closed its eyes again, and its aura became increasingly tranquil.
