Chapter 135: Fighting the Red Dragon Centipede!(1)
The Scarlet Dragon Centipede’s vitality was too tenacious, it actually survived the lightning tribulation!
This demon did not attack. After accumulating his strength for a long time, he finally found this opportunity to launch a surprise attack on Yun Qingkong.
This was the time when Yun Qingkong was weak.
He had consumed more than half of his spiritual energy, and all kinds of talismans and magic tools had been used up in the previous battle. Moreover, Zhuge Hongtu had distracted him.
The red dragon centipede wanted to take this opportunity to kill Yun Qingkong!
..
“Senior, be careful!”
Seeing this scene, Su Mu quickly helped.
He turned into a giant monster that looked like a dragon but wasn’t a dragon, and a centipede but wasn’t a centipede. He charged at the red dragon centipede.
Although the Scarlet Dragon Centipede did not die, its strength was greatly reduced under the bombardment of the lightning tribulation, and it was heavily injured!
After shedding its shell and being reborn, it was more than half as small as before. It was only 300 meters long.
Su Mu was a hundred meters long, but he was not a centipede demon, but a heavenly dragon ghost!
He had the power of the red dragon centipede and the power of the lightning tribulation in his body.
It was not impossible to fight it!
If he really couldn’t win, he would have to stall for a while.
If Yun Qingkong was really killed by Zhuge Hongtu and the red dragon centipede, he would be next!
It was time to face the Scarlet Dragon Centipede head-on!
..
“Boom!”
Before the Scarlet Dragon Centipede’s sneak attack could succeed, Su Mu had ruthlessly slammed into its body, sending it flying.
“The lightning tribulation harmed me and stole my power. Brat, you deserve to die! You deserve to die!”
The red dragon centipede flew into a rage and turned around to attack Su Mu.
This demon had wanted to kill Yun Qingkong first, but he was interrupted by Su Mu.
The new and old hatred exploded at the same time, causing it to directly rush towards Su Mu.
Su Mu wasn’t afraid at all. His hundred-meter-long body emitted lightning as he faced the Scarlet Dragon Centipede.
The two behemoths were fighting and killing each other in the ruins, causing the ground to shake and the mountains to shake!
Although Su Mu was a little younger and had yet to fully control his own strength, he was still a little weak.
However, he had just been born and was at his peak, like the rising sun.
Moreover, Su Mu still had the power of lightning to protect his body.
This was one of the powers that ordinary demons and ghosts feared the most.
The Scarlet Dragon Centipede was the exact opposite.
Although it survived, the lightning tribulation had severely injured it, greatly reducing its strength.
Even if he used the Golden Cicada Shedding Technique to abandon his previous demon body, it was still difficult to hide his decline.
Otherwise, why would it wait until the right time to attack Yun Qingkong?
At the end of the day, he was still not strong enough.
At this moment, the Scarlet Dragon Centipede’s combat strength was less than 10% of its peak!
..
In the beginning, Su Mu was being suppressed by the Scarlet Dragon Centipede and could only defend.
But as time passed, he gradually grasped his own power.
From time to time, he would release a bolt of lightning and spit out a cloud of fire. He fought back and forth with the red dragon centipede. He was no longer passively defending.
“This feeling is too wonderful!”
Although he was still at a disadvantage, Su Mu was still able to freely unleash the tyrannical strength in his body, and he was extremely happy!
Lightning flashed all over his body, forcing the red dragon centipede back a hundred meters.
Following that, a large amount of poisonous fog sprayed onto its head, making it so angry that it cried out.
What could be more infuriating than an enemy stealing one’s strength and using it against oneself?!
“I’m going to kill you! I’m going to kill you!”
The Scarlet Dragon Centipede roared madly, but it still couldn’t defeat Su Mu in a short time, let alone kill him.
It was about to go mad from Su Mu’s anger!
An insignificant ant had caused it to become like this.
Not only did he lose the chance to sneak into the palace to steal the fate of the country and transform into a dragon, but he also lost his previous cultivation!
But now, it was so heavily injured that it couldn’t even take down that ant.
Everything had been destroyed by Su Mu!
Thinking of this, the red dragon centipede was so angry that it was about to go crazy, but it could only be furious.
This was a sense of powerlessness it had never felt before.
..
On the other side, the battle between Yun Qingkong and Zhuge Hongtu was coming to an end.
Zhuge Hongtu knew that he had no chance to take revenge. After burning his blood essence, he chose to commit suicide.
Before he died, he only let out a mournful laugh and did not leave any last words.
A heaven-tier Demon Slayer had fallen just like that!
Seeing this, the red dragon centipede was shocked and furious.
However, it was too weak at the moment.
Just Su Mu alone could hold it back.
If Yun Qing Kong and Su Mu joined forces, it would really die here!
Thinking of this, the red dragon centipede could only suppress the anger in its heart in humiliation. It opened its mouth and spat out a sea of fire, forcing Su Mu back and trying to escape.
However, Su Mu had already seen through this monster’s intentions, so how could he let it escape so easily?
“Stay here!”
Su Mu swallowed the Ghost Essence Pill he had bought for 50 points, and his strength increased a little in a short period of time.
His hundred-meter-long body was filled with lightning as he forcefully broke through the sea of fire and charged at the red dragon centipede.
After closing in, Su Mu opened his bloody mouth and bit down on the Scarlet Dragon Centipede’s tail.
“Roar!”
The red dragon centipede screamed in pain, looking extremely miserable.
It whipped its tail in an attempt to throw Su Mu away, but to no avail.
Seeing that Yun Qingkong was already flying towards them, the red dragon centipede did not dare to delay and swung its tail again.
However, this time, it wasn’t to throw Su Mu away, but to break his own tail.
In a life-and-death situation, the red dragon centipede chose to cut off its tail to survive!
There was no doubt that for a great demon like it, this was an extremely humiliating way to survive.
But it was helpless!
..
After getting rid of Su Mu, the Scarlet Dragon Centipede didn’t dare to stay any longer.
It hurriedly used the Earth Burrowing Technique to burrow underground. In a short while, it disappeared without a trace, and even its aura could not be detected.
Su Mu didn’t chase after him.
He said as he devoured the broken tail of the red dragon centipede,”
“It’s a pity that we didn’t kill this monster. It escaped really quickly.”
The Scarlet Dragon Centipede’s demonic body contained an enormous amount of energy, and was a top-grade tonic for Su Mu!
Of course, ordinary people were not qualified to enjoy this tonic. They would be corroded to death by the poison just by touching it!
Yun Qingkong came to Su Mu’s side and looked into the distance,”
“It’s fine.”
“After this, this monster’s cultivation will be greatly damaged, and his strength will be reduced to less than 10%. He probably won’t come out to cause trouble again for less than a hundred years.”
“During its recuperation period, if it is discovered by me or other experts, it will be very difficult to protect itself.”
“It’s all thanks to you that we can force such a great demon into such a situation!”
“Without you, it attracted the lightning tribulation and forced it to cut off its tail to survive. Why is it in such a sorry state?”
“This centipede demon probably hasn’t been as miserable as it is today for over a hundred years.”
As he spoke, Yun Qingkong looked at Su Mu in amazement.
He clearly remembered that when Su Mu came looking for him, he was only a six year old child.
It was such a child who had come up with an almost impossible plan to defeat a demon king level red dragon centipede!
All of this was too unbelievable!
If he hadn’t experienced it himself, Yun Qingkong wouldn’t have believed that all of this had really happened.
This kid was not a mortal!
..
“Without Senior’s help, how could my plan have succeeded?”
“It’s all thanks to Senior.”
Su Mu humbled himself and swallowed the Scarlet Dragon Centipede’s broken tail.
Then, he transformed from his hundred-meter-long heavenly dragon ghost form back into his human form.
Su Mu felt the surging power in his body, and at the same time looked at the ruins under his feet, sighing:
“If it weren’t for today’s battle, Da Qian would be filled with such ruins in the next few decades.”
“Unfortunately…Sigh ~”
Su Mu didn’t finish the second half of his sentence.
What he wanted to say was that it was a pity that the history of the Origin World would not change because of this.
The state preceptor was still the state preceptor.
A foolish ruler was still a foolish ruler.
Great Gan was still the dynasty that was slowly collapsing.
As for Zhuge Hongtu and Yun Qingkong, their fates should be completely opposite.
In the Origin World, Zhuge Hongtu was most likely still alive, and his strength was definitely stronger.
There was a high chance that he had already advanced to the Martial God realm!
The Eldest Princess Li Lingyan once said that there was someone in Yanjing who could deal with the Imperial Advisor’s red dragon centipede, but it was also her father’s man.
Zhuge Hongtu was definitely one of them.
As for Yun Qingkong, if Su Mu didn’t intervene, he would fall into the abyss under Zhuge Hongtu’s betrayal and end up in a miserable state.
There was a high chance that he would die in endless pain!
Thinking of this, Su Mu looked at the white-robed Daoist beside him with a complicated expression.
“Senior, if you have the chance, find a disciple. Don’t be too picky.”
“Finding a disciple is like finding a wife. All the good girls are snatched away by others.”
“If you can’t survive this life and death crisis and are killed by Zhuge Hongtu and the red dragon centipede, won’t the Qi Sect be cut off?”
Hearing this, Yun Qingkong, who was wiping the stains on his Taoist robe, said casually,”
“Die? I won’t die so easily.”
“If it’s really like what you said, Zhuge Hongtu betrayed me and sent me into the abyssal space, then I have indeed failed my tribulation.”
“But I definitely won’t die, at least not so quickly.”
“Do you know what the strongest ability of the Qi Sect is? Save your life!”
“The Qi Sect has been passed down for more than a thousand years. The first thing every generation of descendants has to learn is the ability to survive.”
“Otherwise, how could the Qi Sect be passed down to this day?”
Hearing this, Su Mu was stunned.
“Senior, do you mean that even if things develop to the worst stage, you can still survive?”
“Naturally! Living for a hundred years might not be a problem, but it was hard to say if he could escape. But as long as he was alive, there was hope. Isn’t it?”
Yun Qingkong smiled casually and continued to clean his Taoist robe.
This expert seemed to be a little obsessed with cleanliness…
Beside him, Su Mu was deep in thought.
Yun Qingkong would not lie to him in such a place.
Since the white-robed Daoist’s life-preservation ability was so strong, was there any way…He was still alive in the main world!
If that was the case, Su Mu might be able to do something about it.
..
Thinking about this, Su Mu cleaned up the battlefield.
The personal belongings of a Heaven-ranked Slayer of Demons contained many good items that could not be wasted!
Seeing this, Yun Qingkong sighed and did not stop him.
After Su Mu finished searching the corpse, he buried Zhuge Hongtu’s body here.
The tombstone was nameless, and only a line of words was left behind-Lost Heartless.
