Jiang Cheng returned to his human form when he saw the miserable state of the black dragon that Kang Shin-mu had transformed into. The imposing aura of the Thunder-slaying True Dragon dissipated from the dense forest.
"If you knew this would happen, why did you do it in the first place?
I'll be taking the Earth Demon's Demon Core. As for you, since you're seeking death, I won't stop you. "
The burly Jiang Cheng smiled savagely as he strode toward the black dragon that Kang Shin-mu had transformed into. A purple thunderbolt gradually gathered in his hands.
Although this thunderbolt was not as powerful as his dragonform, it was definitely not weak. At least, it was more than enough to deal with the current Kang Shin-mu.
Jiang Cheng could sense that Kang Shin-mu had completely lost the ability to fight. That was why he was so bold as to directly cancel his dragonform and approach the black dragon that Kang Shin-mu had transformed into in his human form.
After all, maintaining his dragonform was somewhat taxing on his body. In addition, he did not want the battle to be known by others, so he tried his best to restrain himself.
This gave Kang Shin-mu a chance to counterattack!
Contrary to what Jiang Cheng had imagined, the current Kang Shin-mu had not completely lost the ability to fight. He was only devouring the Demon Core of the Violent Flower Tiger and using it to recover his own strength.
Contrary to Kang Shin-mu's expectations, the effects of devouring the Violent Flower Tiger's Demon Core were very good. The recovery of strength and healing effects were very obvious.
After all, this was the source of strength of a demonic beast of the Earth Demon level. It contained an extremely rich power of the earth. After being devoured by Kang Shin-mu's devouring power, all the injuries on his body rapidly recovered.
When Jiang Cheng arrived in front of the black dragon that Kang Shin-mu had transformed into, his injuries were already mostly healed. Moreover, he had only devoured about a third of the Violent Flower Tiger's Demon Core's power.
This was the best time for Kang Shin-mu to counterattack when Jiang Cheng was caught off guard!
Without any hesitation, Kang Shin-mu decided to attack.
Since the other party had already made a move, Kang Shin-mu had nothing to worry about.
Either you die, or I die!
Just as the purple thunderbolt in Jiang Cheng's hand was about to strike the black dragon that Kang Shin-mu had transformed into, the black dragon that had been paralyzed on the ground suddenly soared into the air!
In that instant, Jiang Cheng's vision was completely occupied by the black dragon's body. The dragon's claws swooped down and directly gripped Jiang Cheng's body tightly!
At this moment, the purple thunderbolt in Jiang Cheng's hand was subconsciously activated. The purple thunderbolt exploded and enveloped the entire body of the black dragon!
Kang Shin-mu took the attack head-on, and his devouring power continued to devour the Flower Tiger's demon core, using it to recover his strength and heal his wounds.
At the same time, his dragon claws gripped Jiang Cheng tightly, making Jiang Cheng look like a field mouse that had been caught by an eagle.
In human form, the difference between his size and that of a divine dragon was too great. At this moment, the devouring power in Kang Shin-mu's body surged out continuously from the dragon claws and enveloped Jiang Cheng's entire body!
With just the strength of the black dragon's body, it was impossible for him to kill Jiang Cheng. After all, Jiang Cheng could also transform into a dragon.
What Kang Shin-mu could do now was to use his devouring power to corrode Jiang Cheng's body. That way, the overall situation would develop in his favor.
The pitch-black light of the devouring power emerged from the dense forest and enveloped Jiang Cheng's entire body.
In the next moment, the aura of the Thunder-slaying True Dragon erupted once again. Indeed, when Jiang Cheng encountered such a situation, he still transformed into a dragon without hesitation.
This was because if he did not transform into a dragon, he would definitely not be a match for Kang Shin-mu!
"To be honest, I really didn't expect you to be able to counterattack. You did a good job pretending to be dead just now, but it's useless now."
Jiang Cheng laughed sinisterly. The Thunder-slaying True Dragon's 300-foot-long body was surrounded by purple lightning and instantly broke through the restraints of Kang Shin-mu's dragon claws!
After all, the Thunder-slaying True Dragon was much larger than the black dragon that Kang Shin-mu had transformed into. Once Jiang Cheng transformed into a dragon, Kang Shin-mu would immediately be at a disadvantage.
However, Kang Shin-mu seized this opportunity and gripped the Thunder-slaying True Dragon's body tightly with his dragon claws. A pair of sharp dragon claws pierced directly into the side of the Thunder-slaying True Dragon's body!
He had already predicted that after Jiang Cheng was counterattacked, he would definitely transform into a dragon again. The moment he transformed into a dragon again would be the moment that Kang Shin-mu had a chance of winning.
Jiang Cheng must have thought that Kang Shin-mu could not withstand a single blow and could be easily dealt with by transforming into a dragon.
However, he would never have imagined that the innate ability of Kang Shin-mu's Divine Dragon Inheritance Blood Essence was actually the overbearing and mysterious devouring power.
Kang Shin-mu gripped the side of his opponent's body tightly with his dragon claws. He was determined not to let go no matter what. The devouring power continued to corrode the Thunder-slaying True Dragon's body through his dragon claws.
Jiang Cheng's purple lightning bombarded the black dragon's body once again. However, this time, it did not cause as much damage as the previous time.
After all, Jiang Cheng had prepared this attack in a hurry and could not exert his full strength. On the other hand, Kang Shin-mu began to devour the power in the Thunder-slaying True Dragon's body and began to develop a certain resistance to the power of thunder.
This resistance was not high, but it was enough to save Kang Shin-mu's life at the critical moment!
For Kang Shin-mu, being able to save his life was equivalent to having the foundation to win. Everything was based on staying alive. As long as Kang Shin-mu was still alive, he could turn defeat into victory!
"For me??
Devour! "
Kang Shin-mu roared angrily. It was obvious that he was extremely angry at his opponent's attack. No matter what, he was not a pushover.
Since his opponent wanted to bully him, Kang Shin-mu, he would let him know the consequences of bullying him!
The devouring power surged out violently from Jiang Shenwu's body like a tornado, engulfing the entire Thunder-slaying True Dragon within it!
The essence of the Thunder-slaying True Dragon's blood and flesh was absorbed by Kang Shin-mu's body and turned into his own.
At the same time, Kang Shin-mu continued to devour the Demon Core of the Violent Flower Tiger. It was the existence of this Demon Core that allowed him to hold on for so long.
"You're courting death!"
Jiang Cheng had never imagined that Jiang Shenwu would be able to launch such a counterattack. Moreover, it was such a strong counterattack that even Jiang Cheng felt a little threatened.
However, Jiang Cheng was not worried that Kang Shin-mu could kill him.
After all, he had almost defeated Kang Shin-mu with just one move. Although Kang Shin-mu was recovering from his injuries, it was of no use.
In Jiang Cheng's opinion, he was a genius who had inherited the blood essence of a true dragon. How could he lose to Kang Shin-mu, who had inherited the blood essence of a mortal dragon?
"If you dare to fight back, I'll kill you!"
