The moment Great Sage's iron fist touched the black flood dragon's body, it felt like he was punching a piece of metal.
* Boom … *
The powerful recoil sent his huge body flying, and a long wound appeared on his abdomen from the inky flood dragon's horn!
"Great Sage!"
Li Mo cried out, thoroughly enraged.
Lightning power shot out again, and at the same time, Shadowmeld was released, chasing after the inky flood dragon and attacking its head.
* Kacha … *
Thump thump thump … *
The flood dragon was in pain, swaying its body and snapping all the trees around it!
"Ah … repulsive human, what skill are you using?!"
The inky flood dragon never thought it could beat the Dragon Soul and the Giant Adamantine Ape, but suffer a loss at the hands of this insignificant human.
"Humph!
Want to know?
Before you die, I'll let you know why you're dying! "
Then Li Mo continued to use the lightning power in his body to attack.
The inky flood dragon saw this and turned into a human.
After all, such a target was smaller, and Li Mo's lightning couldn't easily hit it.
"Humph!
Let's see how you'll hurt me this time! "
The inky flood dragon in human form roared.
Then, he pulled out a steel whip from his pocket.
* Pa … *
It went straight for Li Mo.
Li Mo's Shadowmeld was surprisingly fast, but the disparity in power was too great, and the inky flood dragon's steel whip still hit him.
Li Mo spat a mouthful of blood, and his body flew more than ten meters away.
"Li Mo!"
"Master!
“
Seeing Li Mo's life or death uncertain, Ao Ying and Great Sage both cried out.
Ao Ying's hands turned into dragon claws and attacked the man. The Great Sage was even more furious. His wounds were almost fully healed thanks to his powerful regenerative abilities. He leaped up and prepared to crush the man with the weight of Mount Tai.
"Humph!
That repulsive human must be dead after taking a hit from the steel whip.
Without that loathsome lightning, let's see how you two fight me! "
Saying this, it turned back to its original form. Its huge flood dragon tail swept at Ao Ying, and the horn on its head met the descending Great Sage.
But at this moment, its pupils constricted, and a bolt of lightning grew infinitely larger in its eyes.
* Bang … *
"Ah!"
A loud sound was accompanied by a blood-curdling screech. The Inky Flood Dragon's original form that had just transformed immediately reverted to its human form.
The man covered his eyes and rolled on the ground. At that moment, the Great Sage and Ao Ying's attacks arrived.
Ao Ying used her dragon claws to tear off a chunk of flesh from the man's leg, while the Great Sage pinned him firmly under his body.
"It's over?
We actually killed a level eleven Inky Flood Dragon? "
Li Mo staggered to his feet. His king ranked armor was in tatters.
Fortunately, it had blocked half of the attack for him. Otherwise, he would have died a long time ago.
But even so, there was still a long wound on his body.
"Master!"
Seeing Li Mo stand up, Ao Ying ran to him with teary eyes and checked his wound.
But just then, the Great Sage's massive body was sent flying by a massive force.
The man that the Inky Flood Dragon had transformed into also crawled up from the ground.
But his face was already dyed red with blood, and the wound on his leg from Ao Ying's claw had already revealed white bone.
"Bastard!
I didn't think I'd be hurt by you lot.
I'll make you pay a hundredfold! "
"Not dead yet?"
Li Mo cried out, then used the last of his energy to shoot another bolt of lightning.
Then his vision went black and he fainted!
Crack …
This time, Li Mo aimed for the man's injured eye. Because Ao Ying had torn off a chunk of flesh, the man's movements were sluggish and he couldn't dodge in time.
Thump …
Just as he got up, he fell to the ground again.
This time, the Great Sage raised his iron fist and smashed it as if his life depended on it.
Only when the man was no longer human and turned into a pile of meat did he stop!
Then he turned back to normal size and ran to Li Mo.
"Ao Ying, how is he?"
Seeing the pale Li Mo in Ao Ying's arms, the Great Sage actually choked up like a human.
"It shouldn't be a big deal. He'll wake up after a bit of rest."
"Alright!
You rest too. I'll keep watch for you two! "
…
This area could no longer be called a forest, but a wasteland.
Broken trees were everywhere, and the ground was littered with holes of all sizes, a testament to the bitter battle just now.
An hour later, Li Mo woke up, letting Ao Ying and the Great Sage sigh in relief.
"Is it dead?"
"Dead!
Dead! "
Seeing the weak Li Mo, Ao Ying held back her tears as she spoke.
"Ha-ha … the three of us actually killed an 11th level demon beast.
What a miracle! "
Li Mo smiled wryly as he spoke.
With the help of Ao Ying and the Great Sage, Li Mo arrived next to the inky flood dragon's corpse.
Because it was a demon beast, even if it died in human form, it would still return to its original form.
Looking at the mangled Inky Flood Dragon's corpse, Li Mo felt an inexplicable sense of accomplishment.
While he was avenging the Great Sage, he was also saving the human race.
"Li Mo, here's its demon core. Take it!"
The Great Sage rummaged through the inky flood dragon's corpse for a while, then placed a nearly transparent demon core in Li Mo's hands.
"Great Sage, killing this inky flood dragon was the work of the three of us. How can I keep this demon core for myself?
You are at a crucial moment in your advancement. If you refine it, you'll be able to smoothly become a 10th level demon beast! "
Li Mo gazed at the demon core in his hand, even though he thirsted for power.
But he still gave the demon core to the Great Sage.
But the Great Sage didn't take it, only looking gratefully at Li Mo.
"Li Mo, you helped me get revenge, so I got what I wanted.
Moreover, I'm not far from becoming a 10th level demon beast. Refining it would be a waste. If you still consider me a friend, then take it.
I guarantee that the next time you see me, I will be the true king of Dense Fog Forest! "
Then he ignored Li Mo and looked at Ao Ying.
"Ao Ying, thank you for helping me get revenge. You can take this inky flood dragon's corpse.
Although it is a flood dragon and you are a dragon, you are of the same origin.
After refining it, I believe it will be of great help to your soul!
Alright, Dense Fog Forest's biggest problem is dealt with. It's time for me to take care of those restless fellows. "
Not waiting for Li Mo and Ao Ying to speak, the Great Sage darted into the forest, disappearing in a few breaths!
"Master, this …"
"Forget it, the two of us need to increase our strength. Just take it!"
…
Only four days had passed since Li Mo accepted the mission. Thus, he and Ao Ying didn't leave Dense Fog Forest, but entered the scarlet space.
The time in the scarlet space was ten times faster than the outside world. Li Mo prepared to refine the inky flood dragon's demon core here.
And because Ao Ying's soul was injured, she urgently needed energy to recover, so she also prepared to refine the inky flood dragon's corpse.
Li Mo sat cross-legged on a mountain in the scarlet space, then put the inky flood dragon's demon core in his mouth.
He didn't need to worry about being attacked by the captive demon beasts, because he was the king here. The demon beasts didn't even dare to take half a step near him.
The demon core melted in his mouth, turning into an enormous energy Li Mo had never seen before. It rushed into every part of his body.
Fortunately, Li Mo was prepared, knowing that an 11th level demon core couldn't compare to a 10th level demon core.
He held onto the thread of clarity in his mind, enduring the pain as he refined it bit by bit.
