Chapter 425 Flood Dragon (2/2)

The thunder traveled over after leaping through countless space. It had even dissociated into the Five Elements and went on endlessly. It had turned the spirit sea in his heart into ferocious waves of thunder.

Under the thunder, Yanxu perished again and again. If he perceived himself as being dead even once, he would be doomed.

Fortunately, he was determined. So long as his thoughts remained, he would be alive.

To the Sky Demon, physical body and spirit were not the most important of all. So long as a hint of thought was retained, it would be possible to regenerate, just as how the wild grass covered the grounds after a wave of spring breeze.

Life was but a dream, filled with countless cold autumns.

Yanxu was not about to sit around idly and wait for his death. He struck back.

He turned the thunder in his heart into an illusionary dream which dispersed like smoke and clouds. The thunder too had disappeared. As though the autumn rain had passed, his heart was clear without clouds and was even slightly chilly. The chilliness reached his bier, clearing it up.

Fairy Tianmeng spoke, ”You are still alive.”

Yanxu disappeared and reappeared again, but this time with his arms around Fairy Tianmeng's waist. He gripped her waist gently and spoke, ”Since deep down, you wish that I'm alive, why are you not being honest with yourself?”

Tianmeng replied grudgingly, ”One day, you shall die by my hands.”

Yanxu smiled and spoke, ”It seems like the 'one day' you speak of will not be coming anytime soon.” He continued, ”Let's go. The commotion earlier definitely had alerted the three old hags. I am not in the mood to deal with them tonight. We shall go and kill another person.”

On the light raft above Ruo Shui, Huanzhen was relieved. He felt as though the dark haze shrouding his heart was eliminated. As he looked at the reflection of the moon in Ruo Shui, he could not help but to feel that everything finally fell into place.

He bowed respectfully to Shen Lian and spoke, ”Thank you Zhenren Shen for giving me a new life.”

”Yanxu would not let you go so easily. You should return to Mount Taicang immediately,” Shen Lian spoke casually.

He knew that Yanxu would not let him go so easily. After all, he was the only one who escaped Yanxu's Sky Demon method. Even though he did so with Shen Lian's help, but his knowledge of the Sky Demon method was deeper than anyone in this world. However, he did not understand why Shen Lian had not asked him about the secrets about the Sky Demon method. After all, his personal experience would be of immense help to Shen Lian.

The reason why Shen Lian did not ask him was simple. Because he knew that if he were to formulate all sorts of tactics to take Yanxu down, he would end up hindering his own prospects. Moreover, he learned about the Dream Heart Sutra from Ruoxi, which would be sufficient.

Huanzhen knew that time was not on his side and he bade his farewell. The light raft soared into the sky, the speed of light travel was comparable to that of sword travel.

Shen Lian stood on the river and pointed at it. The river split into half and revealed the river bed. A giant flood dragon rested on the surface of the river, and half of its partially formed horns were shaved off. Its giant eyes were big like lanterns.

Shen Lian made his way to the dragon head and smiled, ”Are you willing to be my mount? If you are unwilling, reply me now.”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click visiting.

Of course, the flood dragon understood Shen Lian. It opened its mouth and tried to utter his reply. However, it was unable to produce even a single syllable, as though an invisible force was restraining it.

Shen Lian laughed, ”Since you did not reply, I shall assume that you agree to the arrangement. I have always wanted to try riding on a dragon and soar in the sky. I did not expect for my dream and reality to be that different. I guess I will have to settle for a flood dragon. Even though it is not the best, but I shall make do.”

If the flood dragon could move now, he would flatten Shen Lian with a smash. Not only that Shen Lian made such a noble breed of dragon into his mount, but he even complained about it not being a real dragon! Not only was the flood dragon unable to utter any syllable, it was not even able to communicate through its divine thoughts, and was completely restrained by Shen Lian.
