Dragon Tamer-Chapter 774 - 778: Night Raid of the Yama Dragon
Chapter 774 -778: Night Raid of the Yama Dragon
…
After wandering in the Supreme Court for over a month, Zhu Minglang finally left at ease.
Upon returning to the Ancestral Dragon City, there happened to be a letter from half a month earlier. As usual for the past three years, it first inquired whether Zhu Minglang had returned, and then it briefly described their whereabouts.
“The He Yu Divine Tribe?”
“They have already traveled so far, and their next destination is the Xuange Divine Country?”
“It must be Mi Rong inviting them to be guests in the Xuange Divine Country. Then, all I need to do is hurry to the Xuange Divine Country.”
“It also happens that I need to dedicate some time to cultivate in seclusion. On my way, I’ll pass several spiritual veins—I should not overlook any of them.”
“While passing through some God Countries and Divine Cities, I should also inquire about Dragon Tail Mountain.”
Zhu Minglang did not dawdle. After tidying up the Supreme Court, he was ready to set out.
There was one thing he was quite concerned with—Hua Chou.
The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.
Hua Chou was clearly destroyed by him in the Dragon Gate, and by all logic, he should have been demoted to a mortal. But after such a long time, no news whatsoever had spread from Tianshu.
It showed that Hua Chou’s words were not false; he had a way to preserve his Divine Travel Body Shell.
In this case, Hua Chou would sooner or later seek him out for retribution, and Zhu Minglang needed to increase his strength as soon as possible.
Currently, his divine form is at the God-principal level. Generally, one’s cultivation base would not encounter much resistance before reaching the God-principal level…
…
“From the North Utmost Ridge to the north, through the Eight Wilderness Regions, there is a City of Faith. That should be the nearest God Territory-level big city to our Supreme Court, although it’s a huge city that accommodates all sorts of beliefs. It’s populated with a diverse crowd, and it’s said that even Demon Race members mingle among them. You can make that your first destination—it’s perfect for replenishing your dragon food supplies.” Zhu Heavenly Officer stood at the mansion gate, seeing Zhu Minglang off.
During his stay in Li Chuan, Zhu Heavenly Officer had continuously dispatched people skilled in traveling to gain a clear understanding of the environment around the Supreme Court.
To the east lay the Sparrow Wolf Divine Territory.
To the north were the Eight Wilderness Regions, a hazardous land ruled by wild beasts.
Zhu Heavenly Officer knew less about the west and south.
“Alright, I understand,” Zhu Minglang nodded.
“Be very careful on the road. Although you are a True God, within the Tian Shu God Domain there are thirty-three True Gods, not to mention numerous Loose Immortals with the strength of gods. Don’t act as if you’re the best in the world,” Zhu Heavenly Officer continued to admonish.
“Understood, understood. Oh, by the way, I sneakily visited the Miao Mountain Sword Sect half a month ago, but I couldn’t find my mother. They said she had left the Sect a while ago,” Zhu Minglang brought up the Miao Mountain Sword Sect.
“I know,” said Zhu Heavenly Officer.
“The Miao Mountain Sword Sect seems to be a branch of the Yuheng Star Palace within the God Yuheng Territory. Not to mention the Lower God Organizations, even the stronger gods like Xuange, Hua Chou, and Flaunting would not trouble them,” Zhu Minglang continued.
“I know, I know,” Zhu Heavenly Officer nodded, suddenly feeling that the way of conversation was off—wasn’t he giving instructions to his son who was about to depart? How did it become his son giving him instructions??
“My mother might have quite the background,” Zhu Minglang said.
“You rascal, do you think your father is an idiot? If she were just an ordinary woman, how could she be a match for your father, a man both handsome and suave, wise and brave!” Zhu Heavenly Officer said annoyedly.
“Then who is she exactly…” Zhu Minglang asked.
“She came to Li Chuan before leaving, inquired about you, and then told me some things. Just as you said, she is from Yuheng Star Palace… She told me that if you emerge from the Dragon Gate, go see her in the Yuheng Divine Territory,” Zhu Heavenly Officer said.
“Yuheng Divine Territory?” Zhu Minglang felt a trace of puzzlement.
“Between the Seven Star Territories, there exist special divine bridges. With permission, one can cross over,” Zhu Heavenly Officer said.
“Oh, oh, I thought each Divine Territory was isolated.”
“The Seven God Territories are collectively known as the North Dipper Divine Land,” Zhu Heavenly Officer explained.
“So you just let mother go like that?” Zhu Minglang asked, raising an eyebrow.
“Your mother and I aren’t on as bad terms as you think. She has her Heart Demon, and I have my Family Door. Once we settle our respective affairs, we will reconcile naturally. You need not worry unnecessarily!” Zhu Heavenly Officer raised his voice a bit at the end and glared fiercely at Zhu Minglang.
“Fine then, I’ll wish you two a happy centennial union in advance…”
“Just get outta here!”
…
…
Leaving Li Chuan, Zhu Minglang stepped into the Eight Wilderness Regions.
This truly was a barren and rampant land, inhabited mostly by Ancient Dragons, and filled with a primitive aura everywhere.
Zhu Minglang rode the Azure Phoenix Green Phoenix Dragon, overlooking the fierce expanse of the great plains and saw a group of Violent Dragons and a group of armored wilderness beasts tearing each other apart over a territorial dispute, the ground littered with dragon scales, armor shards, severed limbs, broken teeth…
Such sights were especially common in the Eight Wilderness Regions, and Zhu Minglang just so happened to need some quality meat, so he joined the battle for territory as well.
Fighting was particularly beneficial for the enhancement of one’s cultivation base. The Spirit Glowing Dragon, the Refining Ash Black Dragon, and the Azure Phoenix Green Phoenix Dragon had all seen significant growth in their cultivation from battling with indigenous fierce beasts in the Eight Wilderness Regions these days.
In the subsequent journey, Zhu Minglang simply stopped flying in the sky and strided arrogantly through the wilderness. As a True God, he did not have to worry about nocturnal creatures from the underworld harassing him, and with the Heavenly Slaughter Dragon and Night Empress by his side, those little demons would basically have to detour around.
It also took half a month, and by the time Zhu Minglang walked out of the Eight Wilderness Regions, he had gathered a big bag full of Soul Beads.
These Soul Beads could be sold in the City of Faith for a considerable amount of Dragon Food.
The headache now was the Dragon Food for Bai Qi, Nuwa Dragon, Heavenly Slaughter Dragon, and Sword Spirit Dragon, especially for Bai Qi.
Bai Qi was now a God Dragon Son and to preserve his own fighting strength, he mostly maintained a state of slumber every day…
He needed to find the Moon Essence as soon as possible; otherwise, it would be difficult to see any improvement. As a being with a higher destiny, as long as Bai Qi was well-fed, his cultivation base would actually slowly rise, stopping only when it reached the level designated by his destiny.
…
At night, the night sky was clear, and Zhu Minglang looked up at his own star, only to find that it still hid its radiance, unlike the surrounding stars that were vying to outshine each other.
“Hoo~~~~~~”
Suddenly, a gust of cold wind came, extinguishing the warming bonfire Zhu Minglang had lit on the wilderness, plunging the surroundings into darkness.
“Oh!” Big Black Tooth cocked its head and spit a breath of dragon flame at the extinguished bonfire, relighting it.
“Hoo hoo~~~~~~~”
Another, even stronger gust of yin wind came and snuffed out the bonfire that had just lit up the surroundings; a part of this wind hit Zhu Minglang who was meditating with closed eyes, startling him awake.
He opened his eyes and surveyed the pitch-black darkness around him.
Outside the area illuminated by the bonfire was a dense gloom, and within the gloom, Zhu Minglang thought he saw a shadow, but it quickly disappeared into the darkness, leaving no trace.
“Oh???” Big Black Tooth’s large dragon face showed a hint of confusion. After a while, it spit out another small dragon flame, trying to relight the bonfire, only to discover that its dragon flame went out before it even touched the bonfire!
Yin Qi!
Extremely dense Yin Qi!
Zhu Minglang, realizing something was wrong, immediately woke up Heavenly Slaughter Dragon and Nuwa Dragon who were sleeping soundly in the Spirit Realm.
“Oh!!! Oh!!!” Suddenly, the Refining Ash Black Dragon lying on the ground let out a terrified scream; its short, stout limbs thrashing in mid-air!
The Refining Ash Black Dragon was not small in size, and it was extremely heavy. Before Zhu Minglang could react, something picked up the Refining Ash Black Dragon and lifted it into the night sky.
“Oh oh oh!!!” The Refining Ash Black Dragon screamed even louder.
Master, save me!!
Zhu Minglang’s divine aura shone brightly as a starlight from the night sky descended, illuminating the pitch-dark area where one couldn’t see their own hand in front of them!
Only then did Zhu Minglang see a creature of the night. With its powerful claws, it had caught the enormous Refining Ash Black Dragon and lifted him into the air; its scythe-like wings were even more terrifying in the darkness, waving with ferocity. Despite being a Dragon King, the Refining Ash Black Dragon had no power to resist and was as vulnerable as a piglet in the grip of those claws.
“Yama Dragon, damn it!” Zhu Minglang cursed, realizing it was his old nemesis dragon!!
“Quick, follow it.” Zhu Minglang jumped onto the back of Heavenly Slaughter Dragon and flew into the sky, chasing after the Yama Dragon.
The Yama Dragon was strong and mighty, carrying Big Black Tooth toward an even denser darkness, its wings like scythes that seemed to cut through everything, stirring up terrifying blades of night in their wake.
Heavenly Slaughter Dragon transformed into Dark Scale Feathers, swimming through the darkness like a dragon entering the sea, nimbly avoiding the scythe-like blades that flew at it, and spat out a breath of Destruction Dragon Breath towards the Yama Dragon.
The Yama Dragon did not dodge or flinch; it was covered in thick dragon scales, and even though Heavenly Slaughter Dragon had the cultivation base of a Demi-god, the Yama Dragon was completely unafraid of its breath.
“Little Nuwa, can you stop it?” Seeing the Yama Dragon flying further and further away, Zhu Minglang couldn’t help but grow anxious.
Nuwa Dragon used the Yanzang Art, snapping off several nearby rock mountains and laying them across the path of the Yama Dragon.
But the Yama Dragon simply smashed through the rock mountains with its Dragon Horn, barely slowing down!
“Damn it, Yama Dragon, if you have a grudge, come at me, why the hell are you grabbing my Big Black Tooth!” Zhu Minglang raged furiously.
The Yama Dragon turned its head and gave Zhu Minglang a contemptuous look, snorting disdainfully. Suddenly, the Yin Qi grew even stronger, filling the night air.
“Ungrateful fool, do you really think I don’t have a way to deal with you?” Seeing the Yama Dragon still provoking him, Zhu Minglang became even more furious!
