Wet viviparity

Chapter 986 Blood Feud, Dragon Essence Takes

In another corner of the realm of boiling water and fire, the true form of the demon king, who was actually Inugami, lay prostrate on a relatively stable foundation of flames.

His eyes were closed, and the banner of the Demon God of Smell in front of his nose fluttered in the wind, which allowed him to better and more fully immerse himself in the ability of his olfactory supernatural powers to capture the vital energy.

Light, shadow, sound, smell, and even the intense fluctuations of spiritual energy were all shielded from Inugami. In the "world" created by his nose, which was composed of countless intertwined, flowing, and colliding energies, there were no secrets in this "world" to him.

He could smell the powerful and familiar aura of Prince Mihuan, which indicated the location of this ally.

Soon, his attention shifted back to the two tracks, which were manifestations of the divine powers of the righteous gods. Although they were invisible and intangible, they were already very obvious under the continuous "attention" of his olfactory supernatural powers, and he began to smell their essence.

Originally, in his and Prince Mihuan's Dharma Realm, as long as the two of them activated their magic together, all the spells cast by the enemy would be weakened or even rejected. This was the enhancement of the 'heaven and earth are of one power' characteristic in the Dharma Realm.

As he had expected, the crisscrossing paths in the Dharma realm were erased, leaving only two.

These two tracks, carrying the "predetermined orientation" of Qi, directly insert themselves into the boiling cycle of the Five Elements within the Dharma Realm, like ropes tied to the Water and Fire elements.

With the intervention of the two tracks, the path of the surging fire element and the channel of the water element were silently stopped, maintaining the smooth rotation of the five elements in the entire Dharma realm. Because the two elements of water and fire were suddenly blocked, like a winch being pulled by an invisible hand.

The next moment, the "winch" started moving again.

However, this time it was under the opponent's control, meaning that the dominance of the Dharma realm has been quietly taken away.

Suddenly, he could no longer sense the aura of the righteous god.

The opponent seemed to have broken down into smaller parts, their energy like countless wisps of silk, merging into every collision of water and fire in the Dharma realm.

The banner in front of his nose trembled even faster as he quickened his breathing in an attempt to track it. However, the energy flow was like a mirage, flickering uncertainly at the edge of his perception, carrying a sense of deliberate disturbance, like countless paths intersecting and twisting in a chaotic state.

"He's playing with my sense of smell. Sure enough, he already knows all about my supernatural abilities." Dog Lord doesn't expect the righteous gods to be completely unaware of his information. He only hopes to buy himself some more time. From the beginning, his hope has never been in this.

"I should talk to Fellow Daoist Mihuan and tell him not to exert too much effort in the battle at this time."

With a twitch of its nose, it located the position of Prince Mihuan and sent a telepathic message there, but this time there was no reply for a long time.

On the fiery foundation, Dog Guardian moved and shot out like a fire arrow, leaving a puff of green smoke in his wake. After a breath or two, the smoke billowed out, and Dog Guardian's figure returned to the same spot.

"Something's not right. Mi Huan's energy is off; it's chaotic and disordered. We'd better not go."

I, an old man, should not get involved in the fights of young people. Judging by the time, the Zhao family's reinforcements should be arriving soon.

At this juncture, the Zhao family must not cause any further trouble. Otherwise, this old man will have no choice but to offer the Dog Talisman to the righteous god and then deliver information about the god's supernatural powers to the Zhao family. That would be a way out.

With this in mind, Inugami decided to go into hiding here.

"I caught him."

At this moment, Prince Mihuan's primordial spirit transmitted a message, sounding very excited, as if he had gained the upper hand in the magical battle. However, what he said made Dog Guardian very suspicious.

"You don't believe me? Why don't you believe me?" Prince Mihuan's urgent question made Dog Guardian even more silent. As Dog Guardian was thinking about how to reply, he suddenly looked up and saw that this voice was not a transmission from his primordial spirit, but a real voice.

Before he could even get a clear look at Prince Mihuan, an ominous premonition spread from the air he could smell.

The moment he saw it, he knew he shouldn't have looked, but it was too late. Under the influence of the righteous god's divine power, his gaze, following its predetermined path, was uncontrollably fixed on Prince Mihuan. Within that coiled, trembling, enormous dragon body, the originally pure and powerful demonic energy was now being brutally permeated by a strange aura. Beneath its round scales, between its muscles and tendons, six arms were slowly moving.

The dragon scales bulged slightly due to the internal compression, outlining the contours of each finger joint.

He could smell the essence of the dragon being blocked and refined; he could smell that the six arms seemed to be measuring and exploring.

They were tracing the dragon's spine, caressing its bones, and had even grasped the dragon core that contained the Prince of the Mystic Ring's lifelong cultivation, spiritual attainment, and even his primordial spirit.

"look."

Prince Mihuan struggled to straighten his body. Under the scales and flesh of the dragon's head, there was a pair of protruding arm-shaped structures, as if they were supporting the dragon's head for the delirious prince. Prince Mihuan said in a daze, "Look, I really have caught him."

"Dog Guardian"

The dragon soared into the sky, but not because of Prince Mihuan's thoughts.

The steam flowed over its scaled body, eventually stopping beside Inugami, coiling it around him. The dragon's head faced Inugami, and it opened its mouth, from which an arm slowly extended, saying to Inugami, "The time has come. It is your turn. Are you willing to submit?"

Dog Lord remained silent, allowing the hand that emerged from the dragon's mouth to slowly reach towards him.

Why was Prince Mihuan chosen as the primary target?

His palm stretched out, and a mouth split open in the palm, saying, "Because the technique of cultivating the Yuan Yang Boy Skill requires three extremely Yang substances when refining supernatural powers—the feathers of the golden rooster, the antlers and blood of the blue deer, and the Dragon Essence."

Dog Lord did not struggle violently, allowing the hand to be pressed against his forehead to apply the restriction.

"You don't seem to be in a hurry to demand my Dog Talisman. Could it be that your real goal is the Dragon Talisman of the Zhao family? Do you really intend to eliminate the Zhao family and take their place?"

"The Dog and the Dragon are both targets, but neither is the other."

Ji Ming gave a vague answer, feeling the Dog Guardian's approval of the restrictions placed on him, and said: "You are too obsessed with information. With this ability to smell, you should use the information obtained by this ability to assist your battle, but you have succumbed to the power of information."

Once you can't find a sure-fire victory in the intelligence, then self-preservation becomes the natural course of action.

"I'm keeping my life because there are more important things to do."

"Is it for Jiang Shiliu?"

“You know him.” Quan Shougong struggled to get up, but due to the activation of the restriction, his true qi was sealed and could not circulate in the Ren and Du meridians and the twelve regular meridians, causing his whole body to spasm and convulse.

"The son of Ma Ji and the Dragon Girl, one of the former masters of the Thirty-Six Qi Mirage Tower, Jiang Shiliu is the reincarnation of this person. Speaking of which, this person is also destined to be with me."

"With this old man here, you won't be able to harm him." The dog-headed man's true form was engulfed in flames, seemingly unable to be restrained even by the restrictions placed on him, clearly ready to fight to the death.

With a flick of its outstretched hand, the dragon pointed at the dog-guardian. Under the full force of the restriction, the eyes of the demon's true form exploded first, followed by its two feet, and then its two claws. "One wrong move, and the whole game is lost. Since you have already surrendered and are trying to survive, why bother to fight to the death?"

Don't worry, with those protectors here, I can't touch Jiang Shiliu.

I merely gave him a push; he was already lost in the mysteries of his past lives, mired in this state for so long, when would he ever avenge his blood feud?
