Chapter 190 Killing the Jiao (2)
Even a master can be defeated by a flurry of punches; too many lice will make you itchy.
Suffering repeated attacks from these weak humans, the Flood Dragon King felt utterly humiliated. He was enraged, and his scales opened, shooting out streams of black, ink-like liquid from the gaps in them.
Yun Kuang shouted, "Beware of the dragon's poison!"
Immediately, all the martial artists activated their true energy to defend themselves with all their might. Once hit by the Flood Dragon Lord's venom, even the strongest physical body would be corrupted!
In an instant, the Flood Dragon King was all alone. He retracted his scales and swept his tail out, striking the spot where Daoist Yun Kuang was.
At the same time, Yun Kuang swung his sword repeatedly, and several sword energies turned into a rain of swords, cutting countless small cuts on the tail of the Flood Dragon Lord.
The fact that Daoist Yun Kuang could unleash such powerful sword energy at the half-step ninth-grade realm shows his strength. However, the Flood Dragon King was too big, and a few wounds were completely insignificant to him. Its giant tail did not stop and was about to strike Daoist Yun Kuang's front.
Suddenly, another sword fell from the sky, piercing directly into the middle of the tail and pressing down with tremendous force, blocking the fatal blow for Daoist Yun Kuang.
Shen Suifeng attacked in anger. Daoist Yun Kuang had no time to thank him. Instead, he tacitly swung his sword again, cutting off another piece of flesh from the Flood Dragon Lord.
As blood splattered, countless aquatic beasts scrambled to grab it, for it was a great tonic for them.
The dragon lord roared, unleashing its physical power once more, forcefully snapping Shen Suifeng's sword in two. Then, it swung its head, its gaping maw opening wide, and charged straight at the two of them.
His speed was completely disproportionate to his enormous size!
Just then, Xi Yuan raised another ring of water columns, delivering a solid uppercut to Jiao Jun. Everyone seized the opportunity and unleashed their ultimate moves in unison.
Various attacks came one after another, all aimed at the body of the Flood Dragon Lord. Ye Kang also took the opportunity to summon his demon blade and unleashed several Heaven-Piercing White Tiger Slaying Blades.
Blood and flesh flew everywhere, and roars continued. The dragon king was enraged by the attack, and its venom glands opened again. This time, it shot out venom faster and in greater quantities. Everyone was caught off guard and almost all of them were hit.
Fortunately, they all had their own internal energy protecting them, so they were not directly seriously injured or killed.
Only Ye Kang, relying on his Shadow Step technique, remained unharmed throughout.
On the distant Thousand Absolutes Island, Gu Lingwei watched Ye Kang's teleportation technique with great astonishment.
Why are this person's moves and movements exactly the same as that lecherous scoundrel's?
……
On the other side, on the warship, several trainee Azure Scale Guards stood on the deck, their eyes filled with anxiety.
They were too weak to dare to go forward; going forward would only be a burden. Therefore, they could only look at the steward, Lu Qi, in a panic.
"Steward Lu! Lord Jiao is too powerful! Lord Xi Yuan and the others can't hold on much longer, what should we do!"
Lu Qi remained composed, glancing inside the cabin.
The guardian of Sky Eagle Town still did not make a move, but continued to wait.
Lu Qi understood that this was because Jiao Jun had not yet revealed a sufficiently lethal weakness, and Tianying Town Guardian only had one chance, so it was absolutely not advisable to rashly use the Grandmaster-level weapons.
He sighed and said, "Go and get the Star Closing Array Flag. This is a gift from the imperial court to the headquarters. There is only one set. It can buy you all at least three breaths of time. You must stay far away and absolutely must not enter the attack range of the Flood Dragon King!"
"understand!"
Without hesitation, the trainee Qinglin Guards went to the ship's storeroom and each took out a set of array flags.
Following Lu Qi's instructions, everyone went to a location at the far end of the battlefield, a place where they would not be instantly killed by Jiao Jun.
Soon, the trainees rushed over, and taking advantage of the time gained by the crowd's attack, all the array flags were in place, then floated into the air, connecting with the starlight.
Beams of starlight shot into the sky, rapidly covering the center of the battlefield.
Meanwhile, on Thousand Absolutes Island, Xiao Yuankui, who had been overlooked, seized the opportunity and fled at top speed.
But before he could run very far, he was stopped by two people.
"Yunhe? Longyue? You're both insane! You two mid-level cultivators dare to stop me!"
That's right, the Cloud Crane Sect Leader and Fairy Longyue, who were initially sent flying by the Flood Dragon Lord, did not die. Now, dragging their heavily injured bodies, they joined forces to block Xiao Yuankui.
They made a huge sacrifice this time. If they don't achieve something, they won't be able to trick Xi Yuan again later. At least they won't let Xiao Yuankui escape, which would be considered as contributing.
Yunhe said, "Brother Xiao, we are both seriously injured. It's two against one, and it's not certain who will win or lose."
"court death!"
Xiao Yuankui shouted and charged at the two men, and the three of them instantly engaged in battle.
The three peerless masters who remained on Thousand Absolutes Island were too badly injured to run and were frantically healing themselves.
Throughout the entire ordeal, the most skilled archer present in the cabin did not make a move, and he didn't even care when Xiao Yuankui escaped.
He stroked the large gray bow in his hand, which contained terrifying power, calmly and patiently waiting for an opportunity.
……
The center of the battlefield.
The pillars of starlight successfully converged and quickly condensed into a single point, outlining an incredibly complex array in the sky.
Seeing this, Xi Yuan shouted, "Retreat!"
Everyone retreated, and the array diagram descended, directly surrounding the Flood Dragon Lord. Immediately afterward, everything went black before the Flood Dragon Lord's eyes, with not a single starlight visible, and even his senses were completely blocked, plunging him into complete darkness.
"The Star-Closing Formation is activated. Three breaths to launch a full-scale attack!"
Without a second thought, Xi Yuan Town Guardian unleashed countless water-based martial arts techniques, with even celestial maidens seemingly circling the water pillars, maximizing the attack power.
The others reacted immediately, unleashing a barrage of lightning, swordsmanship, and saber energy at the giant dragon!
Under the influence of the Star Closing Array, the Flood Dragon King lost all senses and remained motionless, its exposed abdomen bearing the brunt of all attacks.
Even with the demon's powerful physique, it was quickly pierced through by such a dense and fierce attack, exposing its scarlet internal organs.
With a roar, the Flood Dragon Lord broke through the Star Closing Formation, and all the formation diagrams lost their spiritual light, returning to the hands of the trainee Azure Scale Guards.
Three breaths have passed, and the Dragon Lord has suffered a severe injury!
He roared in fury, "You despicable people! How dare you harm me! After I kill you all, I will devour 100,000 people alive to avenge this grudge!"
The roar shook the heavens, causing all the experts to retreat.
Ye Kang also frowned, hesitating whether to go all out.
It wasn't that he wanted to slack off, but there were too many people, and all his special moves were things that couldn't be revealed to the public. Once he used them, there would be a lot of trouble afterward, and they might not even be very effective. He was really torn.
As he hesitated, Xi Yuan roared again, "Jiao Jun! Your audacity in venturing out of the waters is already a capital offense! Now you dare to speak of devouring humans, which makes you even more unforgivable. Why don't you just give up and wait to die peacefully in three years?"
"Three years?"
Everyone was taken aback.
Is the Dragon King only three years left to live?
As expected, Xi Yuan's words calmed Jiao Jun down. He remained silent for a moment, then his eyes flashed with a frenzied rage.
"You juniors have some nerve! You've imprisoned me for a hundred years, preventing me from cultivating by devouring people, which almost caused my cultivation level to drop and prevented me from extending my lifespan. You are the ones who are utterly shameless!"
"Hmph, still daring to argue, it's nothing more than being scared now that you're about to die."
Xi Yuan's words revealed the truth, causing Jiao Jun's killing intent to surge, and he exhaled a heavy breath.
"Young man, dare you say that again?"
