Zhongshan Shenzhu Chi

Chapter 103 Horned Sword

"It's delicious! This is so delicious!" Amidst the ferocious beasts devouring their food, Yera was like a breath of fresh air.

However, this clear stream, after tasting the mirage dragon's flesh, became mixed with the turbid waters.

Although she appears weak, Yera's true form is indeed a behemoth even more ferocious than the fierce demon.

She took a bite out of a piece of meat bigger than her head, and swallowed it whole without chewing.

My lower abdomen is still flat.

Anyway, there's no one else here, just wild animals, so there's no need to worry about manners.

Yela decided to indulge in a feast.

"Candle, that giant beast says there's a dragon and a wolf fighting to the north." At the other end of the Gluttonous Feast, the Mountain Lord approached the Red Dragon, carrying a clam's hind leg in its mouth.

The little fox was also there, baring its teeth at a piece of dragon meat.

With her current teeth, she might not be able to chew the mirage dragon meat.

The mountain lord raised its forepaw, and a wisp of blue flame fell into the piece of dragon meat.

In an instant, it was baked until soft and fluffy.

"Thank you, sister!" The little fox's tail swayed and fluttered.

The only thing she hasn't broken is the shackles on her physical body, and this meal of dragon meat will be a good way to replenish her strength.

"The Cangming Continent and Zhongzhou in the north are also connected to the Yunxi Continent."

"I think it's that yellow dragon from Zhongzhou. It couldn't conquer Yongningzhou, so it wanted to go to Cangmingzhou."

After saying that, Qinghu began to tear at the mirage dragon's hind leg.

"Hmm————" The dragon shrank its size and coiled around a rock.

Within those golden and silver heterochromatic eyes lay images of demonic beasts devouring flesh and blood.

Having fully embarked on the path of rise and reached the Fifth Realm, it naturally came to understand many things.

In this world where all things are imbued with spirits, myths are often born from the most fundamental desires of living beings.

For example, the giant beast named Yera.

Its origin lies in the awe and reverence that the creatures of Cangming Continent held for the snow-capped mountains.

The longing of countless beings for the Mother Goddess piled up year after year on the snow mountain spirit.

Now, as the dynasty's fortune spreads across the land, giant beasts have emerged.

To reclaim this portion of fortune, the yellow dragon had no choice but to attack other mythologies.

"Perhaps this is just one reason." The red dragon's eyes flickered.

It figured out how to advance to the sixth realm.

If the fifth realm is about proving to heaven and earth that one has the ability to control the order of time, then the sixth realm is about becoming the true master of the order of time.

They will not only face the constraints of the rules of heaven and earth, but also countless competitors who are also at the fifth level of Yang God and Nascent Soul, and are equally powerful.

Whether demon or human.

Time is a river in my eyes, and my potential competitor is—

"Grill some for me too!" Two voices suddenly rang out beside the mountain king.

A frog's croak, a call as clear as a spring after a snowfall.

The evil frog and Yela walked over together and handed the meat in their hands to Lord Qinghu Mountain.

"————" The mountain lord lowered his eyes.

She was a little unsure what to say.

All it could do was flick its tail, and two flames fell into the meat in their hands.

"Good, good, even better!" Yera leaned against the tiger, chewing on the tender, roasted dragon meat.

Just as Hunxie was about to eat, he noticed that Chilong was staring at him.

His gaze was intense.

It seemed as if he had something to say.

"Candle, is there something you need?" it asked.

"No, I just remembered something." Red Dragon withdrew his gaze.

It did not experience the mythical war.

But one can imagine how brutal this war, which was a matter of destiny, was.

"Yela, did the person who was chasing you say anything to you back then?" Red Dragon turned and asked.

"Hiccup—" Yera was startled and hiccuped.

His fair face was instantly stained red with blood.

She hurriedly tried to cover it up with a reply: "That person said that either I die or I submit to the dynasty."

"I refused, and then he tried to kill me."

"His expression is terrifying."

"Hmm." Upon hearing this, Chi Long's tense heart relaxed.

There is still room for maneuver.

The yellow dragon in the Central Plains and the Yinglong in the East Sea are growing up, and they must grow up too.

It really didn't want to kill the frog that had helped Yongningzhou survive the drought.

"Zhu, once I've digested all this dragon meat, I'll have a chance to break through to the fifth realm."

The frog holds a piece of meat in each hand and throws it into its mouth like garbage.

"The water droplets my mother left me have shown me the way."

"But Zhongshan doesn't have that many water droplets." The Red Dragon didn't speak; instead, the Mountain Lord replied.

After all, Zhu spends most of her time sleeping or cultivating, so her understanding of the mountain monsters is not as good as hers.

"Mother still has many remnants, and they made their way to General Bang along the Luo River."

"As long as I fight well in the battle at Zhongshan, they will be willing to return."

The frog stopped eating, turned its head, and its gaze became solemn.

It looked at the mountain king, then at the red dragon.

"The drought in Yongningzhou is over; we can make another deal now."

"Speak." Looking at its serious expression, the red dragon seemed to see its former self.

This frog has always been its collaborator; I only fear it might break through to the sixth realm in the future.

"If I take control of Yunmengze, I can form an alliance with Zhongshan."

"Of all the water transport in the world, I will only take one-tenth of the Yunmeng Marsh."

"But Zhongshan doesn't seem to need water transport," the Mountain Lord said before the Red Dragon could speak.

"No, you need it."

"Water transport is not only related to the movement of waterways across the world, but also to that thing on the seabed."

The frog stood up.

It had already made its decision long before Zhuchi was doing its best to protect Yongningzhou and Zhongshan.

Yunmengze alone could not possibly survive in the chaotic world of the future.

It must have a trustworthy and powerful ally.

"Tell me," the red dragon said, lowering his eyes.

"The reason why those dragons set up their dragon court in the East Sea is mostly because the East Sea is a hub for water transport."

"And there is only one reason why the East China Sea has become the head of the four seas."

At this point, the frog paused and turned to look at Yela, who was still eating and drinking.

"What's wrong?" After the initial excitement subsided, Yela began to chew slowly and carefully.

Her cheeks were chubby and fleshy as she asked.

"I heard from the Mountain Lord that you intend to join Yongning Continent?" the Red Dragon asked.

"Yes, yes, I don't want to fight. As long as my snow mountain is in Yongning Continent, neither that wolf nor that dragon will dare to invade." Yela nodded repeatedly.

"Boundary stones alone are useless; you must have force," the mountain lord said in a deep voice.

"I don't know how to fight—and I don't want to fight. Wouldn't it be better if everyone just stayed peaceful?" Yera's face fell, and the meat in her hands no longer tasted good.

As soon as he finished speaking, the fierce men of Zhongshan scoffed.

"Indeed, isn't peace and tranquility better?" Red Dragon chimed in.

"But the reality is that without power, one will be at the mercy of others."

"Here, take this. It's better than the boundary stone."

As he spoke, the muscles inside the red dragon's belly writhed, slowly pushing out what was inside.

A sword.

It is made of three intertwined dragon horns. The two horns on the left and right spiral and entwine around the thickest horn in the middle, eventually merging into one.

"Take this back to the snow mountain."

"Power surged forth!" The dragon horn sword shrank and fell into Yera's hand.

She held it tightly.

This is not just a sword sharp enough to cut through everything; it also has a flowing, water-like quality to it.

"nice one!"

"Boss! From now on, you're my boss!"
