Kang Shin-mu did not expect Jiang Cheng to be so relentless in his pursuit.
Logically speaking, with Jiang Cheng's strength, killing a second layer Earth Demon and obtaining a second layer Earth Demon's Monster Core should be a piece of cake. There was no need for him to target Kang Shin-mu.
However, Kang Shin-mu suddenly remembered the scene from before, when he and Jiang Yuening killed the Five Colored Scorpion.
"Aren't those five people from the South Residence?
That's right, Jiang Cheng should know that Jiang Yuening and I still have the Five Colored Scorpion's Earth Demon's Monster Core. That's why he's so relentless in his pursuit! "
Kang Shin-mu immediately thought of the reason. After understanding the opponent's plan, he knew that today's matter would be difficult.
The people of the Jiang Clan absolutely could not kill each other, but it wasn't as if such a thing had never happened before.
Especially now that Jiang Cheng's fiancée had disappeared. This was probably a huge blow to him, causing him to be irritable and easily angered. It was not entirely impossible for him to make a move against Jiang Shenwu.
With regards to this, Jiang Shenwu was extremely cautious. If his opponent were to make a move, he would have to react immediately. Otherwise, with the terrifying strength of this Thunder-slaying True Dragon, it would probably only need a single move to annihilate him.
The Thunder-slaying True Dragon was born with extremely powerful strength. The destructive power of lightning was extremely terrifying. It could be seen from how it killed the second layer Earth Demon Flower Tiger in one move.
Such an opponent was a bit too powerful for the current Kang Shin-mu. It was basically impossible to fight against it.
But in this situation, Kang Shin-mu obviously could not escape from the opponent. If the opponent really wanted to attack, Kang Shin-mu would be in an extremely dangerous situation.
Of course, it was even more impossible for Kang Shin-mu to hand over the Earth Demon's Monster Core that he had obtained.
No matter what, he would not give in. This was not his character.
"I won't hand over the Demonic Core. Attack me if you have the guts!"
Kang Shin-mu clenched his teeth. The Black Divine Dragon rolled sideways and flew towards the dense forest at the side. In his haste, he didn't know where he was going. In any case, he couldn't let Jiang Cheng stop him completely. Otherwise, it would be even more difficult to talk to him.
When he heard Kang Shin-mu's words, Jiang Cheng was instantly enraged. This brat before him was truly disgusting.
"You don't know how to appreciate favors!"
Jiang Cheng's face hardened and his voice turned cold. "Since that's the case, I'll let you know what fear is!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Thunder-slaying True Dragon that Jiang Cheng had transformed into chased after Kang Shin-mu at an extremely fast speed. The power of the purple thunderbolt arrived with a loud bang, and a purple thunderbolt beam as thick as the mouth of a bowl swept directly towards the place where the black dragon was.
Jiang Cheng had really made a move against Kang Shin-mu!
If this scene was seen by the Elders of the Jiang Clan, not only would Jiang Cheng be disqualified from the Demon Slaying Experience, he would also be severely punished!
Of course, he wouldn't die. After all, Jiang Cheng was a genius among the younger generation of the Jiang Clan. He couldn't be allowed to die like that. But Kang Shin-mu was different.
Even if Kang Shin-mu were to die in Jiang Cheng's hands, Jiang Cheng wouldn't have to pay with his life.
This was the difference in talent. Kang Shin-mu had only inherited the blood essence of a Mortal Dragon, and it was only an eighty-foot Mortal Dragon. Even if he assisted Jiang Zizai's son, his future achievements would be extremely limited.
But Jiang Cheng was different. He had inherited the blood essence of a True Dragon. With the Thunder-slaying True Dragon, he could become a mainstay of the Jiang Clan in the future!
Comparing the lives of the two, it was clear that Jiang Cheng's life was more valuable.
Kang Shin-mu gritted his teeth. When he felt Jiang Cheng's Thunder-slaying True Dragon attack him with lightning, he knew that this battle was inevitable.
Even if he crushed the Explosion Scroll, it would be difficult for him to hold on until the Jiang Clan's rescue team arrived. It was even possible that the opponent's first lightning attack could seriously injure him!
Besides counterattacking, Kang Shin-mu could not think of any other way. Although the odds of success were slim, there was still a chance of survival.
What's more, deep in Kang Shin-mu's heart, there was a crazy idea.
Now that Jiang Cheng had taken the initiative to attack him, wasn't this a rare opportunity to devour it?
If he devoured the Thunder-slaying True Dragon, what would happen to Kang Shin-mu's Black Dragon's blood essence?
What level would it rise from a Mortal Dragon's hundred feet to?
Kang Shin-mu had already experienced the devouring power contained in the Black Dragon's blood essence. As long as he devoured a divine dragon, he could increase the size of the Black Dragon, as well as the grade of the blood essence.
Kang Shin-mu did not know how many divine dragons he needed to devour from a Mortal Dragon to a True Dragon.
But since there was such an opportunity, he would not let it go!
"Even if you are a True Dragon and I am a Mortal Dragon, now that we are both at the first tier of the Dragon Ascension Realm, I might not be your match!"
Kang Shin-mu thought to himself. The eyes of the Black Dragon were filled with endless fighting spirit. He turned around and faced the purple lightning attack released by the Thunder-slaying True Dragon.
The speed of the lightning attack was so fast that it was impossible for Kang Shin-mu to dodge it. But Jiang Cheng did not expect that the kid would turn around and take the initiative to face it.
This situation surprised Jiang Cheng. He grinned and said, "What? Now you want to beg for mercy?
Unfortunately, it's too late. It's absolutely impossible for your fragile body to withstand this lightning attack! "
Kang Shin-mu clenched his teeth and did not reply, because there was no time for him to speak.
The purple lightning struck his black dragon body in the blink of an eye, and the terrifying destructive power of the lightning spread through his entire body in an instant!
The power of lightning was the most violent.
In just an instant, the injuries Jiang Shenwu had suffered had already surpassed the injuries he had suffered during the battle with the Flower Tiger Berserk. His entire body had even been completely paralyzed, and even the slightest movement had become extremely strenuous.
The Black Dragon body was seriously damaged. If this continued, Kang Shin-mu was very clear that as long as the other side launched another lightning attack, he would undoubtedly die.
"There's no other way, I can only devour??"
Kang Shin-mu clenched his teeth. The Earth Demon's Demon Core that he had just dug out from the Flower Tiger's body was completely wrapped up by his devouring power, and then devoured!
Now he had no way to touch the Thunder-slaying True Dragon. If he wanted to heal his injuries and restore his ability to move, he could only devour the Earth Demon's Demon Core.
Although the Earth Demon's Demon Core was very precious, it was insignificant compared to Kang Shin-mu's life.
