Perfect: I am Shi An from Shicun, and I am Huang’s brother!

Chapter 264 Death Qi Gathers into a Dragon
"careful!"

After traveling for an unknown amount of time, Shi An suddenly stopped, his gaze fixed on a spot not far ahead, and at the same time, the golden halberd in his hand burst forth with dazzling golden light.

There, the purple mist was churning, as if something was quietly approaching, and it felt much stronger than the strange fish from before.

"Ow!"

The next moment, a deafening roar suddenly came from the mist, the sound filled with endless majesty and anger, as if it came from an ancient ferocious beast from the primordial era.

Immediately afterwards, a huge figure slowly emerged from the mist. It was a massive purple dragon, and its mountain-like body made the hearts of the three of them sink.

The dragon's body was covered with thick scales that shimmered with a cold light, and its huge claws were as sharp as blades, exuding a chilling killing intent.

Furthermore, its enormous, millstone-like pupils burned with blood-red flames, as if capable of devouring all living beings.

"Is this the remnant soul of a dragon's corpse?"

Looking at the figure in the purple mist, Yun Xi's face was solemn, and the divine light within her body was running wildly, ready to make a move at any moment.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, Shi Yi's eyes suddenly shone brightly, and he said, "No, this is not a remnant soul, but a physical entity formed by the condensation of death energy."

"A physical form condensed from death energy?!"

Upon hearing that the lifelike dragon was merely formed from death energy, Yunxi's eyes flashed with shock, but she quickly calmed down and turned to Shi An, asking, "Brother An, what should we do? Should we intervene?"

"boom!"

Before Shi An could reply, the purple dragon leaped up, its massive claws slamming down on the three of them with immense power.

"war!"

Upon seeing this, Shi An immediately let out a loud shout, and the golden battle halberd in his hand instantly transformed into a golden stream of light, fiercely slashing towards the dragon's claw.

"clang!"

The golden divine light collided with the dragon claw, unleashing a blinding light, and the powerful energy impact instantly tore apart the surrounding purple mist.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, Shi An was forced back several steps, while the dragon was also sent flying several meters away by the blow.

But it quickly stood up again, and with a roar, it pounced on the three of them once more.

"I'm here to help you!"

Seeing this, Yunxi instantly realized what was happening. She also let out a delicate shout and waved her hands, sending purple runes transforming into sharp arrows that shot towards the dragon's head.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

These runic arrows, with their powerful penetrating force, instantly left tiny wounds on the dragon's body.

At the same time, Shi Yi was not to be outdone. His eyes flashed with divine light, and he held his spear like a black meteor, stabbing fiercely at the dragon's weak point.

"clang!"

"Ow!"

After being struck, the dragon immediately let out a painful roar, but it did not retreat. Instead, it launched an even more frenzied attack on the three of them.

"boom!"

A dragon tail as thick as a divine iron rod swept across with boundless power, twisting and deforming the void wherever it passed, emitting a piercing explosion.

Such a scene naturally made Shi An's heart tighten suddenly, and then he swiftly held his golden battle halberd horizontally in front of him, trying to withstand the attack head-on.

"Oh!"

With a loud crash, the dragon's tail slammed heavily onto the golden halberd. The immense force caused Shi An's legs to sink into the ground instantly, and cracks appeared in the mysterious patterns beneath his feet.

He felt an overwhelming force surge into his body, as if his internal organs had been displaced, and a trickle of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

"What a powerful force!"

Struck by this attack, Shi An couldn't help but sigh. This dragon's physical body had probably reached the True One Realm, and even the peak of the True One Realm; otherwise, how could it have injured him and made him vomit blood?

At the same time, a question flashed through Shi An's mind. According to Lin Feng, the strongest thing in the Milky Way should be the Divine Fire, and only those with the Divine Fire could enter from the outside. So what was going on with this dragon?

"Could it be because of that dragon corpse?"

Thinking about it, Shi An once again thought of the dragon corpse that had sucked them in.

"Brother An!"

However, just as Shi An was pondering to himself, Yun Xi, seeing his setback, first exclaimed in surprise, and then her purple light blazed brightly in her hand.

"boom!"

In an instant, a huge purple hand appeared out of thin air and slammed down on the dragon.

The purple palm carried immense power, dispersing the purple mist wherever it passed, accompanied by a hissing sound.

Unfortunately, the dragon showed no fear. It suddenly opened its giant mouth, and a black beam of death energy shot out from it, colliding with the purple palm.

"boom!"

With a deafening roar, the two collided, unleashing a terrifying shockwave.

"puff!"

However, Yunxi's strength was still somewhat lacking. With just this one attack, she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and her body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, finally crashing heavily into the ground in the distance.

At this moment, Yunxi looked very disheveled. Not only was her pretty face pale, but her chest was also heaving violently, and blood was gushing from the corner of her mouth.

"Xiao Xi!"

Seeing Yunxi suffer such injuries, Shi An's eyes widened in fury, and his anger was instantly ignited.

At this moment, he no longer cared about the surging blood and qi within his body. He gripped the golden battle halberd tightly with both hands, and the divine light within him surged wildly. The runes on the battle halberd shone with extreme brilliance, as if they were about to burst into flames.

"Die!"

Finally, with a fierce roar, Shi An shot towards the dragon like a golden lightning bolt.

"boom!"

The golden halberd ripped through the void, carrying the force of creation, and fiercely slashed towards the dragon's neck.

The dragon seemed to sense the terror of the attack, and its huge head swung violently, trying to avoid the fatal blow. However, Shi An's furious speed was far beyond what it could easily dodge.

Sure enough, even though it was just a small creature, the war halberd struck its scales hard.

"clang!"

The sound of metal clashing was deafening, and sparks flew everywhere.

This time, the golden halberd finally left a deep wound on the dragon's scales, from which wisps of purplish-black death energy gushed out.

"Ow~"

In an instant, the dragon felt pain, raised its head and let out a deafening roar, and thick, blood-like death energy spewed out from the gaps in its scales.

"puff!"

Shi Yi would not miss such an opportunity. In a flash, he arrived at the side of the dragon, and his spear, like a venomous snake emerging from its hole, fiercely stabbed towards the dragon's head.

The attack was swift and sudden, especially since the dragon was still enraged by its previous injuries. Although it reacted instinctively, it ultimately failed to avoid a vital spot and was pierced hard into its enormous eye by the spear.

"puff!"

With a muffled thud, the black spear tip sank half a foot deep into the ground, and dark purple death energy gushed out like a fountain.
