Kang Shin-mu followed the Emerald Rock Dragon's escape route and killed the Backback Spiny Boars that had fallen behind.
Very quickly, he had killed six Deep Back Thorn Boars. In the end, there were only two Earth Demon Level 3 and two Earth Demon Level 2 Deep Back Thorn Boars chasing after the Emerald Rock Dragon. The Deep Back Thorn Boars didn't suspect anything. They just thought that their companions had fallen behind. As expected of a barbaric beast, their intelligence was on the low side.
However, after such a long chase, they finally caught up to the Emerald Rock Dragon.
The four Backback Spiny Boars kept attacking the Emerald Rock Dragon. The Emerald Rock Dragon's natural ability was the power of rocks. It could condense large rocks to attack or defend. However, the Emerald Rock Dragon couldn't defend against the combined attacks of the four Backback Spiny Boars.
Of course, in this desperate situation, the Emerald Rock Dragon fought back with all its might. The four Longback Razor Pigs weren't having a good time either. More and more of the Longback Razor Pigs were smashed by the falling rocks. Those were the attacking rocks that the Emerald Rock Dragon had condensed.
The boulders that fell from the sky were very destructive. The second-layer Backback Spiny Boars couldn't defend against them at all. They were immediately injured and their fighting strength was reduced by half. However, the third-layer Backback Spiny Boars weren't easy to deal with.
On one hand, they were more agile and wouldn't be hit by the boulders. On the other hand, even if they were hit, their bodies were sturdier and they would only suffer minor injuries.
As the Emerald Rock Dragon's stamina was depleted, the four Thorny Barbed Porcupine Boars finally gained the upper hand. However, after a long battle, the Thorny Barbed Porcupine Boars were gasping for breath. Their bodies were covered in wounds of various sizes from the Emerald Rock Dragon's attacks.
A third-layer Backback Spiny Boar stepped on the Emerald Rock Dragon's back and stabbed its fangs into the dragon's body. Dragon blood splattered everywhere. The Emerald Rock Dragon grew weaker and weaker. It was about to lose consciousness.
"Almost there?"
Kang Shin-mu finally decided to make a move. On one hand, the Emerald Rock Dragon was about to die and the Backback Spiny Boars were injured. On the other hand, if he made a move now, Jiang Qingyun's subordinate wouldn't recognize him.
Even if he hadn't completely lost his consciousness, Kang Shin-mu would still be a 150-feet-long ordinary dragon!
In this batch of Jiang Clan's dragon warriors that entered Heavendrive Forest, none of them were ordinary dragons that were more than fifteen feet long. Furthermore, Kang Shin-mu was a 'weak' Black Dragon that was eighty feet long, so it was even more impossible for him to be suspected.
Taking ten thousand steps back, even if the other party suspected him, so what?
The black dragon finally appeared on the battlefield. First, it completely annihilated the two Earth Demons of the 2nd layer of the Deep Backthorn Boars that were already injured and unable to move. Its dragon fangs directly pierced into the chests of the two Deep Backthorn Boars, extracting their Yao Cores.
An injured Second Layer Earth Demon could not possibly resist the current Kang Shin-mu!
The remaining two Third Layer Earth Demons naturally discovered Kang Shin-mu as well. Their eyes flashed with endless hatred and anger. Without thinking, they abandoned the dying Emerald Rock Dragon and charged towards Kang Shin-mu.
After all, the two Deep Backthorn Boars still remembered that this black dragon had intruded into their territory and killed most of their brethren.
However, they had neglected their current state. They had already expended a lot of energy fighting with the Emerald Rock Dragon, and had also suffered many injuries from the power of the earth. Did they have any chance of winning against this black dragon?
Barbaric demon beasts had low intelligence, so Kang Shin-mu didn't blame them.
Along the way, Jiang Shenwu had continuously ambushed the Bayonet Thorny Boars and had already obtained quite a number of Yao Cores. After casually devouring one of the First Layer Earth Demon's Yao Core, his entire body's strength had recovered to its peak state. On the other hand, the two Bayonet Thorny Boars were both panting and injured.
Even so, Kang Shin-mu did not let his guard down. Facing the two Deep Backthorn Boars that were charging towards him, he twisted his body and sank his dragon teeth into the back of one of the Deep Backthorn Boars. His Devouring Power surged into the boar's body!
The Deep Backthorn Boar immediately howled in pain. It wanted to use its sharp claws and fangs to attack Kang Shin-mu, but it discovered that its fangs and claws were too short to reach the black dragon's body.
The main reason was that Kang Shin-mu did not let go of the boar's back. The Deep Backthorn Boar had no way of attacking him, unless the other party had some kind of long-range attack power. However, the Deep Backthorn Boar clearly did not have such an ability.
The other Deep Backthorn Boar pounced ferociously, and its sharp claws landed on the black dragon's back. Very quickly, the black dragon's flesh and blood were mangled.
Kang Shin-mu was in great pain, but he was already used to this kind of pain. As he continued to devour the Deep Backthorn Boar's life force and flesh essence, his injuries were constantly recovering, and he was constantly replenishing the strength he had expended.
The terrifying effect of the Devouring Power was once again on display. Just one Deep Backthorn Boar alone could not kill Kang Shin-mu!
As the life force of the Deep Backthorn Boar that Kang Shin-mu was biting down on drained, he once again recovered to his peak condition. As for the Deep Backthorn Boar that was attacking him, it had expended even more strength and was unable to kill Kang Shin-mu.
At this point in the battle, there was no longer any suspense. As for the Deep Backthorn Boar, it clearly did not have the concept of fleeing in its mind. It continued to pounce ferociously towards Kang Shin-mu!
The result was obvious.
Not long after, the ground was littered with the corpses of the Deep Backthorn Boars. Kang Shin-mu had collected all the Earth Demon Cores. Just this wave alone had earned him 18 points worth of Earth Demon Cores. It could be said that it was a huge harvest!
It was only because the Emerald Rock Dragon was attracting the aggro of the Deep Backthorn Boars that Kang Shin-mu had such a good opportunity.
Now that the Emerald Rock Dragon was severely injured, Kang Shin-mu could not be bothered to care about it. He knew that if other Demonic Beasts came over, they could easily kill the Emerald Rock Dragon. However, what did this fellow's life or death have to do with Kang Shin-mu?
If it was a friend, Kang Shin-mu would not mind saving the other party once. However, it was obvious that the other party did not treat him as a friend, so there was no other way.
After collecting so many Earth Demon Cores, Kang Shin-mu quietly left the place and returned to the battlefield where Jiang Qingyun was. He did not know how the battle was going.
The Clear Wave Water Dragon was facing a sky full of flying Demonic Beasts. If this went on, Jiang Qingyun should be running away too.
Kang Shin-mu followed the path he came from and found that the other party had already moved the battlefield. There was nothing left of the original battlefield. It seemed that Jiang Qingyun had indeed escaped. He did not see the Clear Wave Water Dragon's corpse either. Could it be that Jiang Qingyun had run away with his subordinate?
