From a Zhengyi Taoist Child to a Master of All Laws

Chapter 211: Reservoir Fight
Ke He's major in college was local folklore, and he was usually very interested in these things. While walking with Xia Jiajie, he recalled relevant information in his head.

It is recorded in the ancient book "Hou Yu Lu" from the Song Dynasty: The dragon looks like a snake, with a head like a tiger, and can grow to several feet long. It mostly lives under rock caves in streams and pools. If the dragon sees people walking on the shore or in the valley, it will wrap the person with the fishy saliva in its mouth, causing the person to fall into the water, and then suck the person's blood from the armpits until the bleeding stops.

For thousands of years, people in China have always believed in the existence of dragons, and in some places people have claimed to have witnessed dragons.

Since ancient times, there have been rumors of "walking dragons". Even Zu Chongzhi, the mathematician who studied pi during the Southern Dynasties, wrote a book called "Records of Strange Things" about dragons.

Even in the 21st century, on some ancient bridges in Guizhou, Guizhou, Chongqing and Qinghai where there are many water bodies, an ancient sword is still hung under the bridge arch. Some old people firmly believe that this can be used to scare away the passing of dragons and prevent them from causing damage.

The "walking" in "walking dragon" is actually a process. It is the process of a dragon, after successful cultivation, flowing along the main body of a river into the sea. It is usually accompanied by strong winds, rainstorms, surging river water and other destructive and strange natural phenomena.

However, no matter how much preparation they made mentally, when Ke He and Xia Jiajie arrived at the reservoir, their legs went weak and they almost fell to their knees.

The eastern valley of Laoling Peak nearby had completely collapsed. The long black creature that was currently fighting with Li Yang in the reservoir had obviously swam into the river from the collapsed valley and entered the reservoir.

The rain was so heavy that we had to shout to talk even if we were very close.

"Xiao He, did you see clearly what the dragon looked like?"

Xia Jiajie yelled very loudly, trying to hide her panic at the moment.

This is a dragon! It's not a picture on paper, nor is it just a word. It really appeared, not even a kilometer away from them.

As a person who grew up in the soil of Chinese culture, I naturally have a sense of awe for this creature.

"It was raining so hard and it was so dark, I couldn't see clearly!"

Ke He shook his head, staring at the long black creature and the small dot that was fighting with the long black creature.

With Li Yang's body shape, he really looked like a small black dot compared to the dragon. The only time Li Yang fought with the dragon at close range, he couldn't even see its entire appearance. He only felt its outline like a small hill, with scales and sharp claws.

Li Yang was also extremely shocked when the tall black figure rushed out of the valley.

The one from Dongting Lake was too timid and didn't show its face at all. It could only be seen vaguely coiled at the bottom of the lake. But this one was different. It stared at Li Yang with its eyes wide open like ship lights. Unlike the one from Dongting Lake, it became timid after being slashed by a sword. Instead, it had a faint aura of violent madness.

Dragon, Li Yang was not sure, but the dragon in front of him obviously had no intelligence and looked more like a pure beast.

"How brave!"

Li Yang held the Nanming Sword in his hand, and the Moon Essence Wheel swirled around him like a stream of light.
In the first probing attack, the Moon Essence Wheel spun around and rushed towards the dragon's belly scales.

Clang!
There was a fierce sound of metal clashing, accompanied by the dragon's painful roar. When the Moon Essence Wheel was repelled, only a two or three meter long scar appeared on the scaly abdomen, as if the scales were shattered, but the skin and flesh were not hurt.

"Such thick scales!"

Li Yang exclaimed in amazement. With his level of cultivation, he could not control the Nanming Sword to such an extent that it caused such a scraping effect. If it were Qi Qiansu, even if he held his Quexie and chopped for half an hour, he might not be able to kill the beast.

The dragon felt pain and its huge body swam in the water vapor, but it didn't know how to control its long tail, which lashed towards Li Yang like an iron whip. Li Yang dodged sideways, and the long tail actually blasted a whirlpool in the reservoir.

It was like a high explosive exploding in the water, but unable to penetrate. A ball of energy mixed with turbulent waves exploded in the water, stirring up the four directions and causing turbulent rotation.

"Gurgle...Gurgle..."

All I can say is that this genus of dragon is truly a natural alien species.

The Moon Essence Wheel was unable to work immediately, so Li Yang then controlled the Nanming Sword and slashed at the dragon with sword energy.

Although it couldn't kill him immediately, the sword energy still made the dragon roar. It slapped Li Yang's Moon Essence Wheel with one claw, leaving a big wound on its claw. Then it opened its mouth and sucked Li Yang fiercely.

"簌簌猌"

The lake water rolled back, and all sorts of things mixed in the turbid current were swallowed by the dragon. There was no leverage point in the air, and even Li Yang was swallowed by this huge suction force.

"I've been waiting for you to do this!"

Li Yang was not surprised but happy. He took the initiative to jump in. The dragon's sharp teeth, like a tall building, closed up and down, sealing the space. Li Yang was immediately plunged into a dead silence and darkness.

"elder brother!"

Seeing that Li Yang seemed to be swallowed by the tall black figure, Ke He didn't care about exposing his identity and spoke out anxiously.

Xia Jiajie was confused, "What? You said this fierce man who can fight dragons is your brother?"

Ke He was so confused that he didn't bother to explain and just jogged along the river.

Master Qing Jingzi, where is that old Taoist priest Chi Ming? Where are they? Didn't they say they would fight this long worm together?
Thinking that Li Yang came to find this dragon in order not to delay the progress of his Seven Auxiliary Brewing, Ke He almost cried out loud.

However, before Qingjingzi and Chiming were found, another accident occurred above the reservoir.

A light suddenly appeared on the neck of the tall black figure, as if the figure was experiencing some kind of painful torture. His hill-like body was actually emitting electric light.

In a flash, the lightning and thunder that was wrapped around the dragon had grown into a powerful force, strangely illuminating the lake in the storm.

Ke He on the ground took a quick glance and saw the whole appearance of the dragon.
This strange creature has four legs and a thin neck with a white tassel on it. The larger ones have several circumferences. Its mouth has sharp teeth like spears and halberds, and there are things like bone spurs on its back.

"Moo!"

The dragon flipped painfully in the air, tumbled down and fell into the reservoir. After using the water vapor to guide the lightning away, its body twisted, its throat gurgled, and then it opened its mouth and sprayed out, and a sacred Taoist with white hair and beard flew out.

"I want you to read more books. Have you read Journey to the West? Don't swallow everything you read."

Li Yang laughed loudly, and Ke He, who was looking up below, was also extremely surprised.

The dragon suffered a severe blow and its momentum was completely weakened. After realizing the reality, it dived into the reservoir and swam upstream along the river, trying to escape.

"It's too late to run now! My three Taoist friends, please hold the fork in the road and don't let this beast escape!"

After saying that, Li Yang dispersed his Mu Ting Dharma body and jumped into the water.

The depth of Gudong River, a tributary of Songjiang River, is actually about the same as that of Dongting Lake.

Dongting Lake covers an area of ​​nearly 2,000 square kilometers. Its deepest point is only 50 meters, and the average water depth is about 30 meters.

The average water depth of the entire Songjiang River tributary was only 20 meters in the past. Even with the continuous heavy rains and rising water levels, it is not unfathomable.

But this dragon was originally an aquatic creature, and even though it was seriously injured, its speed underwater was faster than Li Yang. In addition, it was night, and the underwater environment was muddy from the fight just now, so Li Yang had difficulty seeing things and almost tracked the blood from the dragon's wounds.

The heavy rain continued, and several Taoist priests guarded their respective checkpoints and jumped into the river together.
