Fiancée Stolen by MC, I Trip Them up-Chapter 412 - 314: The Son of the True Dragon’s Party!

Chapter 412: Chapter 314: The Son of the True Dragon’s Party!

For now, let’s set aside the lengthy wait journey in the Land of the End embarked by the protagonist and the Treasure Tower Spirit. Over in the New World, the situation for Zhao Yi and the others has undergone new changes.

Boom!

With the neck being thoroughly corroded and broken by the venom, the mountain-sized head of the True Dragon collapsed with a crash, causing sand and stones to scatter and smoke to fill the sky in an instant.

This led to two changes.

Firstly, after the True Dragon’s head broke and collapsed, the wound that was once connected split into two, turning the originally smoke-emitting wound from one into two.

This directly doubled the concentration and amount of the black smoke.

This initiated further growth of the New World’s barrier and exacerbated the spread of the Chaos Storm.

In short, the existing balance was disrupted.

The Chaos Storm, driven by the impact of the black venomous smoke, expanded another tier, while the black lightning striking the world’s barrier more than doubled.

Meanwhile, the barrier of the New World constantly elevated and reinforced itself, striving to block the Chaos Storm thereby protecting the New World from the damage of the black lightning.

The end result was still that the Chaos Storm gained the upper hand, with the amount of black lightning surging by 30%, although it hadn’t surpassed the limit of the fourth Thunder Tribulation, it already restricted the actions of ordinary people.

Farmers who were originally twitching and smoking all over after being struck by lightning had to find a forest with many trees, hanging from them like sloths.

This was a method discovered by a farmer to alleviate the damage from the lightning.

By hugging a tree, when the Tribulation Thunder struck the body, it could quickly transfer out through the trunk, reducing the harm of the lightning on the body.

Someone else found out that holding onto metal objects was even more effective.

It’s just that before, everyone was busy cultivating and farming. Although the New World was rich in minerals, there was not enough energy to smelt iron.

Thus, the number of available metal objects was seriously insufficient, not nearly enough to go around,

forcing people to reluctantly settle for holding onto a tree.

Compared to metal objects, trees in the New World were abundant, leaving plenty even if everyone hugged one.

There were also attempts to stay submerged in water to utilize its conductivity.

But the effect wasn’t good.

Water indeed conducts electricity, but instead of transporting it outward, the electricity remained in the water.

This meant after being struck by lightning once, one would have to be electrocuted in the water again.

Taking on twice the suffering from one bolt of lightning.

Since then, everyone remembered the lesson.

When it thunderstorms, make sure to stay far away from the water’s surface!

Apart from the changes in the black lightning, after the True Dragon’s neck snapped, the unease of the small skeleton in Zhao Yi’s Divine Sense World heightened to an extreme.

Obviously, the venomous smoke rapidly corroding the True Dragon’s head posed a significant threat to it.

It’s just unclear why, even though it was frightened, the small skeleton didn’t escape.

Uncertain if it was locked in a stalemate with the True Dragon and couldn’t run, or was unwilling to forgo such a substantial prize as the True Dragon.

Zhao Yi could feel the small skeleton’s Divine Soul trembling, yet it showed no intention of letting go.

Although Zhao Yi was puzzled, he was helpless as well.

Before the True Dragon corpse was poisoned, he couldn’t get close at all, only staying a hundred steps away, or else he would be crushed by the True Dragon’s pressure.

Now with the True Dragon poisoned, surrounded by black venomous smoke, Zhao Yi dared not go over even more.

What a joke!

The fierce poison that the True Dragon’s body couldn’t withstand, Zhao Yi’s small frame going over would only be courting death.

At this moment, Zhao Yi’s sleeve was suddenly tugged by someone.

He turned back in confusion, and saw the Taotie grinning at him with a long, hideous black face, baring its teeth.

To Zhao Yi’s surprise, yet within reason, the Taotie was almost entirely unaffected by the Tribulation Thunder.

The body composition of this prehistoric Fierce Beast was unknown, Zhao Yi even saw sparks flickering on its skin, yet it was completely unfazed, displaying no signs of distress.

With a blank expression, Zhao Yi pushed the Taotie aside and asked, "What’s wrong?"

The Taotie’s paw pointed excitedly at the remaining substantial portion of the True Dragon’s body in the distance, saying, "Master, I want to go and eat!"

Hmm?

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yi’s heart was immediately stirred.

This half of the True Dragon’s body had been lying here for over a year, and the Taotie had never expressed a desire to eat it. Why the sudden urge today?

Thinking of this, Zhao Yi turned his gaze to the True Dragon with its snapped neck and asked contemplatively, "The remaining half of the body, without the True Dragon’s pressure, can be consumed now?"

The Taotie nodded repeatedly, "Yes! Before, I couldn’t smell anything so I didn’t dare start. Just now, a delectable aroma suddenly wafted over, I almost couldn’t resist it."

Aroma?

Zhao Yi came to a realization, "You determine if food is edible through its scent?"

The Taotie nodded, "Yes. Whether something can be eaten, just smelling the scent can tell. Edible ones are aromatic, those that can’t be eaten have no scent or a foul one. That dragon used to have no scent, just now it suddenly emitted a fragrance, so I knew it was edible!"

"I see," Zhao Yi nodded, "Go ahead, be careful. If you notice anything wrong, retreat immediately."

Zhao Yi didn’t mention anything about the venomous smoke, nor that the dragon was its father and therefore shouldn’t be eaten.

On one hand, the Taotie’s thick skin and flesh were unfazed by a mere bit of venomous smoke.

On the other hand, Taotie was a naturally born peculiar species, born to devour, and when it becomes vicious it devours even itself, let alone a True Dragon that might be its remote ancestor.

With Zhao Yi’s permission, the Taotie immediately rushed towards the True Dragon like a gust of wind.

The commotion drew the attention of others, who all turned to watch.

They saw the Taotie quickly arrive beside the half-Dragon body, staying away from the neck, and directly took a bite out of the True Dragon.

Crack!

It truly was like the classic saying, every weakness finds its match.

The True Dragon’s Scale Armor, which almost injured Zhao Yi, seemed as fragile as paper in the face of Taotie’s sharp teeth.

With a bite, the Taotie easily tore the Scale Armor apart as if ripping through a sheet of paper.

Then, the Taotie burrowed in and began to feast heartily.

Seeing this scene, those around erupted into astonished murmurs simultaneously.

They had all seen the Taotie, perceiving it as simple-minded, almost forgetting it was a Fierce Beast.

Now seeing it tear into the True Dragon, those familiar with the True Dragon’s might immediately realized, it’s a prehistoric Fierce Beast!

Hmm?

Zhao Yi was originally watching the commotion when suddenly, his Divine Sense Space shuddered.

He quickly shifted his gaze, and saw the previously trembling small skeleton’s Divine Soul quivering incessantly.

Upon sensing it, Zhao Yi’s expression turned quite peculiar.

The small skeleton’s Divine Soul wasn’t trembling from fear or dread, but out of joy and excitement. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Observing the Divine Soul’s tremor frequency closely, an odd notion sprang into Zhao Yi’s mind.

The frequency of the small skeleton’s Divine Soul seemed as if it was greeting someone.

Greeting?

Zhao Yi suddenly lifted his head, glancing at the Taotie buried in the True Dragon’s body eating.

The sole variable on the True Dragon’s side was the Taotie.

If the small skeleton was greeting someone, it must be the Taotie.

Indeed!

As Zhao Yi reached that thought, he heard a peculiar sound emanate from the True Dragon’s body.

"Woof woof～"

A black look instantly clouded Zhao Yi’s face, and he turned to look at the clueless little poisonous creature beside him.

"Tell Black Stripe, if it teaches the Taotie to bark like a dog again, I’ll break its dog legs!"
