Chapter 649 (2/2)

Shang Yafang was still at the Skysoar Realm. Thus, it was impossible for her to help with the mission. The only reason she had tagged along this time was to gain more experience and spend more time with Xiang Shaoyun.

As for Winter Frost and Summer Flame, they were left behind so they could focus on healing themselves. The Shang Clan people could not understand why Xiang Shaoyun did that. He had them under his control, but he was now freeing them? However, since that had nothing to do with them, it wouldn't be proper for them to say anything.

The sin dragons were a type of demonic beast with a tiny trace of the dragon bloodline. They enjoyed living in extremely vile environments, such as an area with poison miasma, or an area with a rotting pond, or a desolate land, and so on.

Along the way, they encountered many other demonic beasts, and they moved out of the way accordingly and avoided conflict with these beasts. They would only fight back when the demonic beasts went after them and forced their hands. After three days of searching, Shang Jifeng finally identified a marsh with sin dragons. It was a place where Shang Jifeng had once trained himself. Thus, he was rather familiar with it.

”See this? This is the footprint of a sin dragon. From it, we can see that there is definitely a sin dragon here. We can also see that this sin dragon is quite strong, so we have to be careful,” explained Shang Jifeng as he pointed at a footprint on the ground.

”This is quite a big marsh. How should we lure it out?” asked Xiang Shaoyun.

”Easy. Sin dragons are vicious beasts. So long as someone intrudes upon their territory, they will attack. Of course, they are extremely crafty as well. Before an actual clash, they will lie in wait and only attack when the prey a.s.sumes that they won't appear anymore,” Shang Jifeng explained. ”The easiest method is to force it out.”

He then lifted a random boulder and threw it toward the marsh.

Bang!

An oppressive sound rang out as mud splashed everywhere.

”Roar!”

Abruptly, a fearsome roar sounded as a ma.s.sive black figure charged out from underneath the marsh. A black sin dragon appeared before them. It had a slender head and neck, looking more like a lizard than a dragon, and its body was ma.s.sive, with glistering scales. A pair of bat-like wings could be seen on its back, while its pair of ma.s.sive legs shook without stop. All in all, it was a dreadful-looking beast.

”Impudent! You dare disturb my peace? You shall all become my food!” roared the sin dragon before spewing a mouthful of mud from his mouth.

The mud contained the aura of the sin dragon, and it was also extremely corrosive. A regular person would not be able to survive after touching it. This particular sin dragon was a fifth-stage Demon Emperor, possessing an extremely formidable offensive power. The Shang Clan experts all withdrew with Shang Yafang under their escort.

As for Shang Jifeng, he exclaimed, ”This fellow is much stronger than us. We can't face him head on.”

He was a wind cultivator. Thus, he directly moved like the wind and flashed away from the sin dragon. Lady Shura also retreated at the sight of the sin dragon. That left only Xiang Shaoyun, who advanced instead of retreating. He moved at an astonis.h.i.+ng speed, avoided the incoming attack, and went straight for the sin dragon's weak point.
