This Taoist priest is so unprofessional!

New and old grudges, at this moment, completely ignited the rationality of the evil dragon's incarnation.

It no longer probes.

With a deafening roar, its enormous head snapped back, then opened its gaping maw, wide enough to swallow a small car whole.

A jet-black liquid rapidly condensed in its throat.

That was not just a pool of water, but a pure water evil that had been refined over a thousand years of cultivation, mixed with endless resentment and malice.

next moment.

"boom--!"

A black water column with a diameter of more than half a meter, like a cannonball fired from a gun, tore through the air and carried a terrifying aura that corroded everything, directly blasting towards Wang Xiaoer, who had just exhausted himself!

The speed and power of this attack far surpassed that of the water arrows spewed by the previous Water Fiend.

Wherever the water jet passed, the air hissed and twisted.

"Waiter!"

Zhang Chen and A Yue's expressions changed drastically. They wanted to help, but they didn't have time to react at all.

The water jet was moving too fast!

Just as their nerves were beginning to register the threat, the shadow of death loomed over Wang Xiaoer.

In that split second between life and death.

Wang Xiaoer's already exhausted body was shaken by the roar of the evil dragon, and his legs went weak, causing him to fall backward uncontrollably.

A very awkward squat caused him to fall backward at an unbelievable angle.

"Whoosh!"

The deadly jet of black water grazed his nose.

Wang Xiaoer could even smell the pungent, nauseating stench.

He could feel that a section of his nose hair had been singed off by the strong wind.

"BOOM—!!!"

The black water column slammed heavily against the mountain wall more than ten meters behind Wang Xiaoer.

A sickening corrosive sound rang out.

The incredibly hard rock, upon contact with the black column of water, melted and vaporized instantly, like butter meeting a hot iron.

A huge crater belching black smoke appeared out of nowhere on the mountainside, its bottom unseen.

Looking at that terrifying pit, Wang Xiaoer broke out in a cold sweat instantly.

If that hit him, even if he were still in that golden-light-protected state, let alone now that he's made of flesh and blood, he would probably be melted on the spot.

The evil dragon's avatar was clearly stunned when its attack missed.

Immediately, an even more ferocious rage ignited in its enormous, blood-moon-like eyes.

In its eyes, the ant's dodge was the ultimate provocation to its authority!

Its massive body began to stir, no longer content with ranged attacks.

"Splash—"

With a loud splash, its mountain-like upper body began to climb toward the shore.

The claw that had previously created the giant crater slammed heavily onto the shore, instantly cracking the solid ground.

Each movement caused the ground in the entire mountain bay to shake violently.

It knew very well that the boy in front of it, who was radiating holy light, was currently at his weakest.

This is the perfect time to devour him!

"run!"

Zhang Chen grabbed Wang Xiaoer's arm, pulled him up from the ground, and dragged him backward at high speed.

As he ran, he shouted to A-Yue, who was lagging behind.

"Ah Yue! Hold it back! Its target is Xiao Er!"

Wang Xiaoer was being dragged along by Zhang Chen, staggering and panting heavily.

"I... I feel like my luck... seems to be deliberately creating these kinds of near-miss situations for me?"

He was panting heavily, his face filled with the lingering fear of surviving a close call.

A-Yue did not answer.

She stared at the enormous creature slowly emerging from the water, exuding an overwhelming sense of oppression. She gritted her teeth, a resolute glint in her eyes.

She knew that running away wouldn't be so easy.

This thing is definitely faster than them!

She suddenly stopped and took something out of a sachet woven from special silk threads at her waist.

It was a venomous insect, entirely emerald green, as if carved from the finest jade, quietly resting in her palm.

It looks like a praying mantis, but it is smaller, only the size of a thumb, with its forearms folded up in front of its chest, like two sheathed jade scimitars.

This is her natal Gu.

He had nourished her with his own essence and blood for over a decade, cultivating a deep bond with her through life and death; this was his last trump card, his most treasured secret.

Jade Blade Mantis!

"go!"

A cold syllable escaped from A Yue's mouth.

As if hearing a command, the little praying mantis in her palm suddenly flapped its wings and flew away.

The moment it takes flight, it grows taller in the wind!

A vibrant green light flowed across its body, and its originally thumb-sized form rapidly expanded in mid-air.

In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a gigantic mantis, more than half a person's height, with a ferocious yet magnificent appearance!

Its body has a perfect streamlined shape, and every inch of its shell is like the most exquisite work of art, shimmering with the luster of jade.

The forearms that had been folded up in front of his chest had now transformed into two enormous blades, each nearly a meter long, with edges gleaming with a chilling light!

"hiss--!"

The Jade Mantis let out a sharp screech, not of fear, but of pure fighting spirit.

It sensed its owner's determination.

Its mission is to eliminate all enemies in its path!

Without the slightest hesitation, the Jade Blade Mantis transformed into a green afterimage, its wings vibrating rapidly and emitting a piercing buzz as it fearlessly charged towards the evil dragon that was climbing ashore!

The difference in size is like that between an ant and a giant elephant.

But its imposing presence is by no means weak!

The evil dragon had obviously also noticed this little insect that dared to provoke it.

A hint of disdain flashed in its blood-red giant eyes.

To it, it was just another fly that was slightly larger.

It didn't even bother to use its claws; it simply flicked its enormous head slightly, preparing to smash the insect away.

But in the next second.

The Jade Blade Mantis displayed terrifying speed and agility completely disproportionate to its size.

Just as the evil dragon's head swung down, its body made a strange turn in mid-air, narrowly avoiding the impact.

Immediately, it accelerated again with its wings, its entire body almost touching the thick neck of the evil dragon, and soared upwards at high speed!

Two emerald green blades drew two dazzling green streaks in the morning light!

"Clang! Clang!"

Two piercing metallic clangs rang out.

The Jade Mantis's blade, capable of easily slicing through steel, slammed heavily into the black scales on the evil dragon's neck.

A series of dazzling sparks exploded!

The seemingly indestructible black scales were actually slashed by these two blades, leaving two clearly visible white marks!

Although it failed to break through the defenses, it successfully halted the evil dragon's movements for a moment.

pain!

The long-lost pain returned from my neck.

The evil dragon was now completely enraged!

It never expected that this tiny insect could actually hurt it!

"roar--!!!"

With a furious roar, it abandoned its pursuit of Wang Xiaoer and instead unleashed all its rage on the audacious mantis!

Its giant claw, as large as a small boat, accompanied by a fierce wind that could tear the heavens and earth apart, swung violently and slammed down on the jade-bladed mantis in mid-air!

This claw strike was several times faster than before!

A massive shadow instantly enveloped the Jade Blade Mantis.

Faced with this devastating attack, the Jade Mantis did not flinch in the slightest.

It let out a resolute screech, crossed its two jade swords in front of it to protect itself, and tried to withstand the attack head-on!

"boom--!!!"

The giant claw descended.

The Jade Mantis's seemingly tough body was utterly fragile in the face of absolute power.

Like a glass marble being struck at high speed, it was slapped away by the evil dragon's claw with a dull thud.

The green figure traced a parabola before crashing heavily onto the ground dozens of meters away, creating a shallow crater and kicking up a cloud of dust.

It rolled around on the ground a few times and then lay still.

Life and death do not know.
