“Run!”
Elder Yanxin spat out a mouthful of blood essence and poured it into the fiery red gem at the tip of his staff.
The gem radiated with dazzling light, turning into a crimson fire python that pounced on the Fire Dragon in an attempt to stall for time.
Yan Lie gritted his teeth and took Huo Ling’er’s hand: “Sister Ling’er, let’s go!”
“But Elder…” Huo Ling’er struggled.
“If we don’t leave now, we’ll all die!” Yan Lie forcefully pulled her out of the pool.
However, Yanlong was already aware of their existence.
Or rather, Yanlong was paying attention to Huoling’er—the pure and rich fire spirit aura she possessed had a natural attraction to Yanlong.
“roar!”
With a swipe of its claw, Yanlong destroyed Elder Yanxin’s fire python. Its huge tail swept out, sending Elder Yanxin flying and crashing into a stone wall, his fate unknown.
Then, the dragon turned its head, its golden dragon eyes fell on Huo Ling’er, opened its huge mouth, and spat out a second golden flame!
This fire was denser and more terrifying than the first; wherever it passed, even the ground melted into magma!
Yan Lie’s face turned pale. He let go of Huo Ling’er’s hand and dodged to the side first. He actually abandoned Huo Ling’er!
“Senior Brother?!”
Huo Ling’er was shocked.
The fierce flames almost devoured him—
A cyan colored figure descended from the sky like a shooting star, blocking his path.
David!
He cupped his hands before his chest, and chaotic immortal power gushed out wildly, turning into a gray vortex that continued to spin.
A burst of golden flames struck the vortex, only to be quickly shattered, devoured, and annihilated, like a mud ox entering the sea!
However, the Fire Dragon’s flames were too strong. Even though David managed to ward it off, he still groaned, a drop of blood dripping from the corner of his mouth. He took three steps back before standing straight again.
“David!” Huo Ling’er exclaimed, both surprised and excited.
“Hide behind me.”
David wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looking at Yanlong with a serious expression.
The peak of the ninth level of the Immortal Lord Realm was indeed extremely terrifying.
He was barely able to block the attack with all his strength and even suffered minor injuries.
Seeing that its attack was blocked, the Fire Dragon let out a furious roar, and its huge body flew out of the lava lake, floating in the air, covering the sky.
He looked at David, a glimmer of doubt flashing in his dragon eyes. This little human could actually resist his dragon’s breath?
But then, doubt turned to anger. The dragon’s power increased, and the temperature in the entire valley soared once again!
“David, run! Don’t worry about me!” Huo Ling’er shouted in panic, “He is too strong, you can’t beat him!”
David didn’t answer; his mind was racing.
Direct confrontation was clearly not an option. Even though the Immortal Power of Chaos was profound, the difference in their cultivation levels was too great; both the total amount and quality of his immortal power were far inferior to Yanlong. Prolonging this fight will definitely lead to defeat.
The only way
David thought of his true dragon bloodline.
Among dragons, bloodline suppression was extremely strict. Although this fire dragon was powerful, it was just an ordinary dragon, and its bloodline was not pure.
David possessed the bloodline of a five-clawed golden dragon, making him a king among dragons!
If we fully activate the Golden Dragon bloodline, we might be able to intimidate him and give him time to escape.
But once his bloodline activates, his identity might be exposed.
The golden dragon bloodline was too eye-catching; what if someone with ulterior motives saw him?
David glanced at Huo Ling’er, whose face was ashen behind him, then at Elder Yan Xin, whose fate was unknown in the distance, and at Yan Lie, who had fled to the edge of the basin but looked back.
“I can’t worry about that anymore.”
David took a deep breath and made a decision.
He formed ancient and complicated hand seals, and his internal energy began to surge.
“roar!”
The Fire Dragon launched another attack. This time, it swooped down, its huge claws tearing through the air as it grabbed hold of David!
Before the dragon claws even arrived, the terrifying pressure had already cracked the ground and turned the rocks into dust!
Huo Ling’er closed her eyes in despair.
However, the expected death did not occur.
He opened his eyes and saw a scene he would never forget—
David stood still, looked up at the sky and let out a long roar!
It wasn’t a human howl, but a dragon’s roar!
A shrill, majestic, and soul-stirring dragon roar!
Along with the dragon’s roar, a dazzling golden light burst out from David’s body!
