The beast's claw was several meters long and had five sharp claws. Each claw was covered with silver scales and emitted a cold, metallic aura.
The claw didn't seem to be an illusion at all. It was a real beast claw that reached out from the void and crushed Li Yang into a pulp.
Hu Lang, Zhao Moyang, and Recluse Solar Dragon all had the same feeling when they saw the silver dragon. That was not an illusion, but a real divine dragon, the god of all beasts!
Dragon!
That was a myth from ancient times. It was said that dragons were the god of beasts, the most powerful Xuan Beasts.
That being said, legends were legends. For millions of years, nobody had seen a real dragon.
Although many secret techniques and people's attacks could imitate divine dragons, they were still imitations after all.
Just now, the three of them saw a living dragon. They saw a dragon claw reach out from the void, and then crush a Renhuang into minced meat with an unstoppable force.
They could not fight back, could not fight back, could only wait for death!
That dragon claw was like the hand of a god. Hu Lang, Zhao Moyang and Recluse Solar Dragon felt they could not fight back and that once they were touched, they would die for sure.
Their teeth were chattering and they felt cold, just like when they saw a powerful Xuan Beast for the first time when they were kids.
That kind of invincible power terrified them and made them lose the will to fight.
After the dragon claw killed Li Yang, it dissipated in midair. It was proof that the dragon claw was just an illusion, a secret skill, not a real dragon claw.
After the time for three breaths, Hu Lang, Zhao Moyang and Recluse Solar Dragon finally came back to their senses.
The three of them looked at Lu Li at once. When they saw a pair of silver eyes with two silver dragons hovering in them, they were shocked at the same time.
"Good!"
Hu Lang yelled. He came to his senses. The silver dragon and the dragon claw didn't come out of nowhere. It was Lu Li's skill!
"What …"
Zhao Moyang and Recluse Solar Dragon looked at each other with fear in their eyes.
The two of them found it difficult to advance or retreat. Li Yang had been killed by a single claw. Could they block that earth-shattering claw?
Fight?
Escape?
While the two were hesitating, Lu Li walked over in strides. His momentum was rising. He shouted coldly, "Hu Lang, what are you waiting for?
Do it!
Today, this underground palace will be their burial ground! "
"Alright!"
Hu Lang spun his gigantic axe like a windmill. In his other hand, a gigantic black net appeared. Clearly, it was a magic treasure. Hu Lang wanted to trap the two of them and keep them there.
"Roar ~"
From Lu Li's abdomen came a dragon's roar. Then his back glowed in silver light as a huge silver dragon shadow scuttled out from his back, brandishing its claws and fangs. It roared soundlessly and flew up as if it was going to fly away.
"Run —"
Zhao Moyang and Recluse Solar Dragon could no longer stay calm. Just now, after the shadow of a dragon appeared, a huge dragon claw came down from the sky and crushed Li Yang to death.
If the two of them did not escape, they would also become a pile of minced meat.
"Bang ~"
Recluse Solar Dragon struck Hu Lang back with his staff, then transformed into a beam of light and rushed into the tunnel together with Zhao Moyang.
Hu Lang chased after them in rage, only to see Lu Li standing still.
Hu Lang looked at Lu Li with doubt. Why didn't Lu Li release the dragon claw?
If he had done so, he could have killed another person.
"Poof ~"
Lu Li trembled. He spat out some blood. He dropped to one knee and supported himself with his hands. Blood gushed out from his mouth and his face turned pale.
"Young Master Li ~"
Hu Lang was frightened. He flew over and stood next to Lu Li. He took out a pellet and was about to feed it to Lu Li.
Hu Lang used Xuan Energy in his other hand to help Lu Li adjust the chaotic qi and energy in his body.
"Don't worry about that. Let's get out of here and find a safe place!"
Lu Li looked up with difficulty. He felt his eyelids were as heavy as mountains.
He only had time to finish his sentence before his vision went black and he fainted on the ground.
"Eh …"
Hu Lang finally understood why Lu Li didn't release the dragon claw a second time.
The second time was a bluff. He could not do it and he only wanted to scare off Recluse Solar Dragon and Zhao Moyang.
"I think the two of them have run away."
Hu Lang fed Lu Li a pellet. After the time for 20 breaths, he carried Lu Li on his back and flew toward the exit.
Given Zhao Moyang and Recluse Solar Dragon's speed, they should be more than 30 miles away in the time for 20 breaths.
Hu Lang appeared in the crack with Lu Li on his back.
He used psychic power to the limit to make sure that Zhao Moyang and Recluse Solar Dragon were not hiding nearby. He was relieved and flew up with Lu Li on his back.
"Okay!"
Above the crack, Hu Lang still didn't see the two hiding. He dared not to stay any longer. He flew toward the north as fast as he could.
The fact that Lu Li didn't attack just now was a huge flaw!
Recluse Solar Dragon and Zhao Moyang were smart. Although they were scared off just now, they would soon come back to their senses and chase after Ji Hao.
Theoretically speaking, they should be heading toward the Central Plains. Therefore, Hu Lang didn't go to the west or the Clouds Plains or the Serenity Plains. He wanted to buy some time to make it harder for them to catch up.
…
"Something is wrong!"
Hu Lang was right. More than 300 miles to the east of the island, Recluse Solar Dragon suddenly stopped in midair.
In front of him, Zhao Moyang glanced at him in confusion. He stopped and asked, "What's wrong?"
"We have been tricked!"
Recluse Solar Dragon made up his mind and said, "That punk is bluffing. He can't kill us!"
"How is that possible?" Zhao Moyang was still hesitating. "He killed Li Yang in one move."
"Hmm!"
Recluse Solar Dragon sneered and said, "The moment we ran away, he had the chance to kill one of us. Why didn't he?
A warrior at the peak of the Eternal Realm can learn a powerful skill. Can he release it twice in a row?
I even think … he didn't do it himself. How can a warrior at the peak of the Eternal Realm use such a powerful skill?
Such a skill should be famous in the Heaven Reverse Universe. Have you read about it in the history books? "
"What …"
Zhao Moyang's eyes flickered. He was having doubts. After all, it was shocking to hear that a warrior at the peak of the Eternal Realm could release such a powerful skill. Recluse Solar Dragon's analysis made sense.
Zhao Moyang made up his mind and said, "Then … let's go back and have a look?"
Since the mission was not accomplished, they wouldn't have the chance to be rewarded. They would be chased around the world like two stray dogs.
"Let's go back!"
Recluse Solar Dragon made up his mind. He trusted his judgment. He turned around and flew back to the island. Zhao Moyang went after him after some thoughts.
"There is blood!"
After returning to the ground crack of the small island, Recluse Solar Dragon saw a drop of fresh blood at the edge of the crack. He quickly rushed into the crack and entered the underground palace again.
"We have been tricked!"
Recluse Solar Dragon flew into a rage when he saw the blood Lu Li spat out.
Zhao Moyang was furious as well. How could they be scared off by a young punk?
"They can't go far. Let's go!"
