Chapter 461 - 463 Fiery Sunlight Print
The frost gathered especially at the neck and head of the Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon, preventing it from breathing out dragon breath. Seizing this opportunity, the Heavy Slave Puppet charged directly at the Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon, swinging the Bronze Hammer down onto its head.
The Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon threw its right wing forward, blocking the dreadful hammer.
Nonetheless, the Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon was still knocked back dozens of meters, its body’s center of gravity somewhat unstable, and its right wing bone was also injured, incapable of flying for a short time.
Engaging in close combat with the flesh and bones of a Dragon King, this Heavy Slave Puppet must be Lu Mu’s strongest weapon, likely to be able to smash to death any Dragon King below the middle level with that Bronze Hammer.
“Thump, thump, thump.” A knocking sound came from the cliff beneath Zhu Minglang’s feet.
On the inward-sloping cliff face, a man was pressing his back against the rock wall, clinging there like a gecko, and happened to be not far from Zhu Minglang.
Zhu Huo had already made a huge mistake last time, giving the enemy a perfect opportunity for assassination. This time, he naturally wouldn’t repeat it. He specifically instructed Dumb Wu Peng to hide in the dark, protecting Zhu Minglang, as he believed An Qingfeng and Zhao Yu would certainly not let matters rest, especially with the inexplicable disappearance of Zhao Yin Ge…
Wu Peng had a high cultivation base; he was an Earth Artisan, skilled in earth escape and defense. Zhu Minglang did not have a particularly deep understanding of such Divine and Mortal beings, only knowing that Wu Peng was a formidable expert with a vicious reputation and few words!
By knocking on the cliff, he was actually seeking Zhu Minglang’s opinion.
He worried that Zhu Minglang alone would have difficulty facing the combined attack of the two puppets.
“Don’t worry, my dragon is not as frail as it appears. Although the Puppet Master can empathize through the puppet’s senses, it has a certain range limit, so the Puppet Master herself must be nearby. Find her and kill her,” Zhu Minglang said to Wu Peng, who was hiding on the cliff.
Wu Peng knocked on the rock wall in response, indicating his understanding.
He began to move through the cliff, and the rocks seemed to shift like wriggling sand.
In fact, Zhu Minglang had intentionally allowed the Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon to display weakness to provoke the enemy.
Zhu Minglang believed that the woman who came forward to speak to him with her ice fog palm techniques must also be a puppet. Eliminating these two puppets would be meaningless without finding the Puppet Master’s hiding place.
Within a five-mile radius, that should be the Puppet Master’s limit.
Hopefully, Wu Peng could quickly locate the true whereabouts of Puppet Master Lu Mu.
…
Extreme Shadow Traceless!
With its feathers fully recovered, the Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon started flying low, moving so swiftly that Zhu Minglang could only see a blurry shadow.
The feathers of the Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon were naturally tough and sharp. It executed its recently mastered skill, resembling a curved azure divine weapon, fiercely chopping down at the Heavy Slave Puppet!
Finally, wounds appeared on the Heavy Slave Puppet, whose skin and muscles were not like those of ordinary humans. Clearly, it had undergone various human cauldron poison refining processes, making its muscles appear as solid as chunks of iron!
The Heavy Slave Puppet barely withstood the Azure Blade Dragon Wing Slash, but the frosty Lu Mu puppet might not be so resistant. She was already marked with several long gashes, only able to barely stop the bleeding with frost.
The Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon grew increasingly formidable as the battle continued. Its feathers began to absorb sunlight incessantly, making it appear as if it was wearing a Phoenix battle coat, and its azure radiance burned like azure flames.
It flew low across the land, turning everything it passed over to scorched earth.
With a single breath, it unleashed a ravaging blaze of light. Both the Heavy Slave Puppet and the Ice Mist Female Puppet were forced to retreat, their injuries increasing all the while.
“Are you just relying on this one dragon to guard your miserable life? Then your time to die has come!” Lu Mu said grimly.
At that moment, her eyes suddenly emitted a terrifying Demon Light, while the area around her eye sockets became etched with twisting Demon Patterns, resembling glowing centipedes crawling out from her eyes, then spreading across her entire face, and over her whole body.
The centipede Demon Patterns didn’t just appear on the body of the Ice Mist Female Puppet; similar patterns emerged on the chest of the Heavy Slave Puppet as well, twisted, ferocious, bizarre, their bodies seemingly engorged with blood as their bones appeared to undergo a grotesque transformation, making eerie sounds as the Demon Patterns emerged!
In the instant of the Demon Pattern mutation, Zhu Minglang caught a breath of air originating from a nearby forest.
Zhu Minglang’s eyes lit up.
Hmph, hiding in there, are you!
“Wu Peng, go. She’s hiding in the forest to the south. If she’s alone, take her down!” Zhu Minglang instructed Wu Peng.
Wu Peng obeyed and immediately skirted around a rock cliff, clambering up from another low precipice, and noiselessly approached the forest.
…
The transformation of the Demon Patterns, it must be said, showcased that Lu Mu, the Puppet Master, was far superior to Zhao Yin Ge who had merely scratched the surface of puppeteering.
The Ice Mist Female Puppet and the Heavy Slave Puppet became incredibly fierce; not only had their wounds healed, but both gained tremendous strength.
In particular, the Heavy Slave, swinging his Bronze Hammer, almost cleaved the extending high slope cliff in half, with cracks sprawling and deep, some of which had already spread across the rock layers of the precipice.
At this time, Zhu Minglang could naturally escape if he wished, by flying into the ocean on the Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon, making it difficult for the two puppets to pursue.
But he had to delay them a bit longer; he couldn’t allow this female Puppet Master to escape again. Zhu Minglang’s temper would not tolerate anyone using the same trick twice before him and getting away unscathed!
“ROAR!!!!!!”
The Heavy Slave Puppet slammed his hammer towards the Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon, shaking it from midair and causing it to fall.
The Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon landed near Zhu Minglang, but did not fall over.
“NEIGH!!!!!!”
The Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon spread its wings and raised its head; suddenly, a blaze of intense light converged together, forming walls as thin as curtains across the high sea slope!
These walls, composed entirely of azure curtain light, stood tall. If one were to look down from above, they would notice they made the impression of the Fiery Sunlight Print.
The Fiery Sunlight Print not only protected the Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon within, but also enveloped Zhu Minglang behind layers upon layers of curtain of light prints…
This seemed to be a power that could only be wielded after reaching the Monarch Level.
But in truth, the powers of the Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon were not limited to this alone; it had been employing an invisible force since the beginning of the battle, with special seeds slowly germinating in the soil of the high sea slope, bathed in Dome Light, and now about to break through the soil!
The Heavy Slave Puppet swung his hammer wildly, shattering one light wall after another, while tiny vines and Wind Crystal Dandelion Flowers began to bloom…
