Dragon Tamer

Chapter 740: Chapter 744: Spirit Fruit Qingguo

Between heaven and earth, there was a man with a sword, and a primordial oddity beast god wreathed in thunderfire. The wind and clouds roiled intensely as the breath of divine beasts and the majestic force of Jian Hong collided, causing the surrounding holy spirits, demon emperors, immortal ghosts, and ancient beasts to all scatter in fear, not wanting to be caught in the fray!

…

After a fierce and exhilarating battle, Zhu Minglang’s entire body was boiling with blood. In the end, the Kirin Beast God was still a beast god. Having exerted all his energy, Zhu Minglang had only managed to bring about a pyrrhic victory.

“Bai Qi, Little White, Reverse Spot, the rest is up to you now. It must not be allowed to escape; this is a beast god!” Zhu Minglang plunged his sword into the ground and sat down cross-legged, using spirit rice to regulate his breath.

Enjoying the fight was one thing, but there was no need to vie for life and death with the opponent since after all, he was a Dragon Shepherd professional in outnumbering the enemy!

...

The Kirin Beast God’s golden pupils with red irises widened in shock!

Humans, you have no martial honor!

The Moon Honoring, Star Responding White Dragon flapped its wings. The chill that emanated from it after gaining a hundred thousand years of cultivation from the Heaven Dust Dragon was extremely terrifying. Just showing up was enough to turn a hundred li radius into a land of ice disaster.

The Heavenly Slaughter Dragon, having absorbed the essence of the Emerald Eye Demon God, now possessed demi-god level strength. With Bai Qi’s help, defeating the severely wounded Kirin Beast God was not a problem.

The Nuwa Dragon now also held a demi-god cultivation base.

But her divine arts were exceptionally powerful.

Whether it was the Yanzang Art or her divine spell incantations, she was enhancing the strength of the Heavenly Slaughter Dragon and Little Bai Qi, while at the same time suppressing the Kirin Beast God.

When the Kirin Beast God realized it was no match for the human, it chose to make a strategic retreat. But immediately, its limbs were bound by four ring-like divine shackles placed by the Nuwa Dragon.

The shackles made it difficult for the beast god to move, and try as it might, it could not break free.

The Nuwa Dragon was also top tier when it came to tormenting enemies; her divine skills and spells were endless in variety, with many patterns that both bolstered allies and suppressed or restrained the enemy. It seemed that if it weren’t for the limitations on her cultivation base, she could play with this exotic beast god from the Dragon Gate like a monkey…

Zhu Minglang rested and healed while watching the battle.

It was a beast god, after all, and the three dragons cooperated in battle, also upholding the caution passed down by Zhu Minglang. Even for a battered beast god that had fought Zhu Minglang to a standstill, they did not rush in…

Only when the Kirin Beast God breathed its last breath with resentment did the Moon Blessing White Dragon, the Nuwa Dragon, and the Heavenly Slaughter Dragon dare to approach.

The Heavenly Slaughter Dragon dragged the body of the Kirin Beast God in front of Zhu Minglang for him to divide.

“Let’s get Bai Qi’s cultivation base to quasi-god level first,” Zhu Minglang said.

Bai Qi’s own cultivation base was definitely at the god level, but it was suppressed within this Dragon Gate.

Bai Qi nodded and began to absorb the rich spirit root contained in the body of the Kirin Beast God!

This process was as simple as eating a meal would be. If cultivating in the outside world could also be like this, countless people would have already ascended to immortality.

“The Sword Spirit Dragon is quasi-god level.”

“The Moon Honoring, Star Responding White Dragon is quasi-god level.”

“The Heavenly Slaughter Dragon is demi-god level.”

“The Nuwa Dragon is demi-god level.”

“Now our strength is very formidable, and we belong to the group that’s climbing the ranks quickly,” Mr. Jinli said. “This means we can be bolder and head straight to Mount Zhi Tian to compete with even stronger ancient beasts and God Chosen for the rarer and more precious Spirit Roots.”

“Right, the abundance of Spirit Roots means we don’t need to waste time maintaining our cultivation base along the way,” Zhu Minglang nodded in agreement.

“With our current power, we can even take on those whose cultivation has reached the God Son Level. But I guess there aren’t many God Chosen or deities that have reached this realm in such a short time. Take one step ahead and you’re one step ahead of the rest. We need to be at the very front, so we don’t end up picking only what others have left behind!” Mr. Jinli spoke.

…

Without lingering, Zhu Minglang made his way towards Mount Zhi Tian.

Along the way, he occasionally ran into other God Chosen and saw some lost villages and towns…

Whether it was immortals of divine beauty, omens that shone purple, or Spirit Roots that just fell from the sky, ready to be picked up with a stoop, Zhu Minglang didn’t even spare them a glance.

His only goal right now was Mount Zhi Tian!

To climb high is to see far, to touch the sky. Since such a magnificent and towering peak existed within Dragon Gate, it must have its purpose. Climbing up first was the right move!

…

“Fellow Daoist, please wait a moment.” Another woman, also standing on a Flying Sword, with hair ornaments flowing like clouds, with her glossy bangs alluringly sweeping across her brow, shading her eyes slightly, yet making her look extraordinarily pure and beautiful, charming, and sensual.

Zhu Minglang completely ignored her, maintaining his arms crossed and his body following the slight undulation of the Flying Sword rhythmically.

Even though this Sword Girl indeed had beauty surpassing that of Yu Shanhan, Zhu Minglang was aware that many women who entered Dragon Gate had a touch of the Immortal’s aura. After cleansing their marrow and purging filth, it was impossible for their appearances to be lacking.

“Fellow Daoist, you’ve eliminated a woman. I’ve used the Looking Air Quality Technique and I can see our Yuheng Star Palace’s Spirit Roots on you,” the woman persistently questioned as she followed.

“You want to avenge her?” Zhu Minglang asked.

“Not at all. Actually, I was ordered to end her divine journey and shell. For someone from our Yuheng Star Palace to resort to despicable means just for promotion is a disgrace, bringing us shame and humiliation,” the Sword Cultivator woman said.

“If you’re here to express gratitude, there’s no need. Her Spirit Roots have greatly benefited me. If you have nothing else, please stop following me. Otherwise, you might leave me with a very bad impression of your Yuheng Star Palace,” Zhu Minglang said.

“I am Linghu Ling. These are some Spirit Fruit Qingguo I obtained from slaying demons…”

“I’ll take the items. Can you leave now?”

“Yes.” Linghu Ling didn’t say anything more, she left the Spirit Fruit Qingguo and departed.

…

After the woman left, Mr. Jinli looked at the bountiful Qingguo and hesitated for a long while before speaking, “Do you think these fruits might contain some toxin that suppresses cultivation? Once you eat them and become weak and defenseless, this beautiful fairy might just come out and suck away all your Spirit Essence.”

“There’s no poison. They’re better than Spirit Rice and can sustain my cultivation for half a month,” Zhu Minglang said.

“A woman’s mouth, a liar’s ghost; the more beautiful the woman, the less you can trust what she says. If she’s offering kindness without cause, it’s either deceit or theft!” Mr. Jinli said.

“Actually, I feel like she’s not a problem.”

“Why?”

“Her actions are straightforward and direct. The more straightforward and direct the actions, the harder it is for them to be deceptive. She left the fruits and went her way, not caring whether I accepted them or not. It’s likely that Yu Shanhan really did ruin the reputation of their Yuheng Star Palace, and she’s here to clean house,” Zhu Minglang explained.
