Chapter 114: Gigantic Flood Dragon (1/2)

There was a saying that every ownerless treasure would always have a spiritual creature or object protecting it. Looking at the flood dragon staring at Cheng Yu as if he was a tiger watching his prey, Cheng Yu could only laugh bitterly. Cheng Yu lifted up his head and saw that it had not grown its horn yet, so he knew that this flood dragon was still not mature. The flood dragon was most likely waiting for the Spirit Origin Fruit to fully mature so it could consume the fruit to speed up its own growth.

Currently, its strength should be around the Core Formation Realm or below. The reason why it had not finished growing yet was because it was waiting for the fruit to mature so that it would be able to break through its bottleneck easily.

If its strength had yet to mature, it would be the best scenario for Cheng Yu because it would mean that this flood dragon was, at most, in the Foundation Establishment Realm late stage. If it had already fully grown and was waiting for the fruit to mature before consuming it, it would be troublesome as its strength would be at least at the Foundation Establishment Realm peak stage!

The reason why Cheng Yu did not bother to wait until the fruit was fully ripe was because the period for the fruit to fully ripen was one thousand years. From the looks of it, the fruit would need at least another 100 years before it was fully ripe. As beasts had long lifespans, they would usually wait until the fruit had fully ripened before consuming them. This would be beneficial for their future cultivation instead of just their immediate cultivation.

However, Cheng Yu did not have that luxury. There was still a Kunlun Sect who kept on monitoring him and would strike at any time. In addition, after his national exam, he would enter the cultivation world to make a name for himself. Even if this fruit had not fully ripened, just the accumulation of heaven’s spiritual Qi for several hundred years was sufficient for Cheng Yu to breakthrough to Foundation Establishment Realm peak stage. Even if he was not able to breakthrough to the Core Formation Realm, he would definitely not be far from it. So, Cheng Yu was not willing to wait until the fruit had fully ripened.

“Brother, this tree is so big. There are at least 90 fruits, if not 100. I am only taking one. Can you not be so fierce?” If Cheng Yu could settle this peacefully, Cheng Yu did not wish to battle it out with this big beast.

All monstrous beasts were very fierce and tough, especially flood dragons. If their cultivation met a certain point, they would become a true dragon, and their body’s constitution would become extremely tough. Furthermore, looking at this flood dragon, Cheng Yu was able to tell that its strength was not weak, and its cultivation was even higher than his, causing Cheng Yu to feel nervous.

It was evident that the flood dragon did not wish to share the fruits that it had been protecting for hundreds of years with others as it opened its mouth and roared. The dragon tail that was hidden beneath the water spattered out and smacked the water, causing a water snake to be formed that charged towards Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu cursed and quickly evaded. The water snake ran into the mountain wall behind him. Immediately, a rumbling sound was produced as it exploded.

However, just as Cheng Yu was about to stand up straight, a long dragon tail had already started swinging towards him. Once again, Cheng Yu leapt to avoid it. The dragon tail smashed into the wall, causing the rocks to be crushed into small pieces. It was sufficient to show the degree of toughness on its body.

When Cheng Yu saw that the flood dragon was actually so ruthless, he took out his flying sword as he chopped at the dragon’s head. The flood dragon slanted its head and used the top of its head to block the flying sword. A “Ding!” sound echoed as the flying sword flew back, and the flood dragon was still perfectly fine.

“D*mn it! What kind of lousy flying sword is this?! Although the flood dragon’s body is strong, it is only at the Foundation Establishment Realm. Even after I chopped at his head, it did not even leave a wound behind! Kunlun is so disappointing. Do they only use this flying sword as a transport method?!”

Although the flood dragon did not get hurt, it was still able to feel pain. It snarled and opened its mouth. Poisonous saliva dripped out from its teeth and flew towards Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu dodged quickly. The flowers and plants behind him were splashed with the poison, which instantly corroded to the point where not even a single leaf was left behind.

When Cheng Yu saw the dragon tail flying towards him again, he leapt into the sky and jumped towards the flood dragon’s back. The flood dragon quickly swung itself randomly and tried to fling Cheng Yu away.

However, Cheng Yu grabbed its back tightly and circulated his Qi. He used a palm strike, causing a big white fist to imprint itself on the back of the flood dragon. The flood dragon cried out as it hurriedly dove into the water. However, Cheng Yu still did not let go as he continuously pounded his fist on the flood dragon’s back.

The flood dragon rolled painfully inside the water. Just as Cheng Yu was beating the flood dragon to his heart’s content, he suddenly felt a scorching pain on his face and there were signs of his face being corroded. Cheng Yu mumbled “Sh*t!” and quickly let go of the flood dragon as he flew out of the water.

Once he left the water, Cheng Yu quickly used his spiritual Qi to protect his body from corroding, ”D*mn it! This beast is really smart. He actually knew how to put his poison into the water. Luckily, I managed to react quickly. Otherwise, this handsome face of mine would definitely be disfigured.”

When Cheng Yu saw the flood dragon flying towards him again, he quickly punched out. The fist collided with the flood dragon’s body. The impact caused Cheng Yu to fall back several feet as he bled from the corner of his mouth. “F*ck*r! I only want a fruit. Must you really oppose me at all cost?! Time for me to take good care of you!”

Cheng Yu once again stood on top of his flying sword as he poured a large amount of spiritual Qi into it. The flying sword shined with white lights. In an instant, the strength of the sword grew by a hundredfold as Cheng Yu chopped down towards the flood dragon’s head again.
