2176 The Thunder Dragon (1/2)
The Vast Sky Saint Son, the Linglong Saintess, the Heavenly-Sword Saint Son, and the Furious-Blade Saint Son were all upper-grade Saints. Since they were powerful with great backgrounds, they flew up and rushed toward the Thunder Lotus Leaves first.
The other self-cultivators didn't hesitate either. Most middle-grade and low-grade saints also flew up and ran toward the middle of the lake. They were afraid that the Vast Sky Saint Son would have carved up the Thunder Lotus Leaves with the others if they got there too late.
Qingfeng Li didn't rush toward the middle of Thunder Lake. Instead, he stepped back.
Qingfeng Li stopped after retreating a thousand meters, then said, ”It should be safe at this distance. Everybody be careful and prepare for emergencies.”
Black Puppy was confused, ”Didn't you mean we should let the Vast Sky Saint Son, Linglong Saintess, Heavenly-Sword Saint Son, and Furious-Blade Saint Son fight with each other, then profit at their expenses? What else are you expecting?”
Qingfeng Li took a look at Black Puppy, saying, ”Are you pretending, or do you really not know? There is a powerful thunder beast under the Thunder Lotus Leaves. Even I felt a bit scared. Once it shows up, those self-cultivators will all be doomed.”
Black Puppy shook its head and said, ”My spirit energy is not as powerful as you. I can't feel it. But it's reasonable. The Thunder Lotus Leaves are precious saint herbs; the roots are even half-immortal level herbs. There should be a demonic beast guarding them.”
The Vast Sky Saint Son, the Linglong Saintess, the Heavenly-Sword Saint Son, and the Furious-Blade Saint Son were very fast, as well as other self-cultivators. They were all masters in the Saint Realm, running through the air, and instantly getting to the middle of the Thunder Lake.
When they reached out their hands and were about to pick Thunder Lotus Leaves, a giant tail suddenly showed up from underneath. The tail was ten kilometers long, penetrating through the sky, exploding the void, and smashed at those self-cultivators.
The Vast Sky Saint Son was in the front. He hurriedly wielded his fist and parried that giant tail.
But at the next moment, an invincible blast of energy came from the tail and knocked the Vast Sky Saint Son away with a force as heavy as a planet.
Seeing the giant tail slapped the Vast Sky Saint Son away, the Linglong Saintess, the Heavenly-Sword Saint Son, and the Furious-Blade Saint Son were all shocked and realized this demonic beast was extraordinarily powerful.
At the next moment, the ferocious beast showed up from the bottom of the lake. It was a giant dragon that was over ten kilometers long, with thunder all over its body. It was covered by vat-sized green scales, shining Saint Rules and Talisman scripts of Dao, and had a horn on its head.
This thunder beast was evolving into a genuine dragon but hadn't reached that level yet. It was a flood dragon at this moment.
The Thunder Dragon was very ferocious. It could speak human words and said, ”Damn humans, how dare you try to take the Thunder Lotus Leaves? You're seeking death. All of you will stay here and die today.”
The Thunder Dragon opened its giant mouth that was thousands of feet large, with numerous fangs inside, exuding terrifying aura.
The Vast Sky Saint Son, Linglong Saintess, Heavenly-Sword Saint Son, and Furious-Blade Saint Son noticed the danger first and hurriedly retreated.
Those behind them were not that lucky. They were not as powerful and fast as the Vast Sky Saint Son and were instantly bitten by the giant mouth of the Thunder Dragon. Their flesh was crushed into pieces and then swallowed inside.
As low-grade Saints, they were very powerful, but they were still too weak compared with the Thunder Dragon. This Thunder Dragon appeared to be a peak-level saint beast.
