Chapter 1072: Chapter 376: Primordial Soul Pill and Rebirth Mantra, Red Blood Demon Dragon, Shocking Change (Part 3)
The demon dragon not only breathes magma but can also summon winds, drive water, and control lightning. Its power is extremely terrifying. As soon as it appeared, it stirred up thunderstorms and surrounded the entire Chilong Lake. Fifteen Xianyang Level warriors from the Nine Towns have been trapped inside and are now engaged in a fierce battle with the dragon. The commotion is so great that it can be heard within a ten-kilometer radius."
The information about Qinghe Village that Wang Yuan just mentioned already filled Liu Yuanās face with shock. Now, after hearing Zhu Xingās words, his pupils trembled even more, eyes full of astonishment.
A thousand-zhang Red Blood Demon Dragon, spewing magma, summoning winds, driving water, controlling thunder, emerged and trapped fifteen Xianyang Level warriors!
Liu Yuan suddenly thought of something and asked Zhu Xing in alarm: "Lord, could it be that the lord is also in..."
Before he could finish asking, he realized it. Zhu Xing had just mentioned that, worried about being detected by those Xianyang Level warriors, he dared not go near, so he surely couldnāt confirm the identities of those fifteen warriors.
"The Red Blood Demon Dragon means that there wasnāt a single master left in the Great Awakening Hall. Dajue Templeās attack on Bashang was actually to lure the Xianyang Level warriors from the Eight Towns to Chilong Lake. This dragon is their means to deal with the Eight Towns!"
Liu Yuanās expression looked grim. Right now, his biggest concern was that the lord, Xia Hong, was among those fifteen Xianyang Levels.
The thousand-zhang dragon, leaving aside its strength, just its size alone far exceeds any Cold Beast theyāve encountered before.
Moreover, could something that has been kept by the Great Awakening Hall under the lake for seven or eight years be simple?
"Wang Yuan, Zhu Xing, continue monitoring the area around Qinghe Village. Report any situation immediately. We currently canāt determine the lordās location, and the Minister is absent. Just occupy Lower River Village for now. If there are any changes, Iāll send someone to notify you immediately."
"Understood!"
The two left the main building and headed north towards Qinghe Village.
Liu Yuan turned to survey the entire Lower River Village, seeing the Golden Armored Soldiers scattered around the main building, his expression slightly tensed.
In the first half of the night, he had led the Cloud Dragon Army from Wuyuan. Following orders from the Minister, they controlled the population of Lower River Village and quickly sent Wang Yuan and Zhu Xing to monitor Qinghe Village.
Those at the Earth-digging Realm and Cold Resistance level in Lower River Village were mostly absent, leaving over fifty thousand ordinary people and Logging Realm individuals. The Cloud Dragon Army could easily control them. The only unexpected incident occurred just before dawn when over twenty Zen Temple Bhikkhus suddenly came over.
Liu Yuan did not hesitate, capturing all of them with the Cloud Dragon Army on the spot. The cloth bag filled with green pills hanging from his waist was taken from those Zen Temple Bhikkhus.
"Lord, please donāt be at Chilong Lake!"
Even though Liu Yuan lacked the full grasp of information like Xia Hong and Xia Chuan, he could still piece together most of the situation based on current events. Thus, he could only hope that Xia Hong hadnāt fallen into Dajue Templeās trap.
As for the fifteen Xianyang Levels from the Eight Towns, he was not concerned.
Regardless of the outcome of the battle between the Eight Townsā Xianyang Levels and the dragon, it would likely be unfavorable for Great Xia.
"Hopefully, theyāll both suffer heavy losses, with neither gaining any advantage!"
Liu Yuan could only pray anxiously on the spot, waiting for Xia Hongās return.
.........
Liu Yuanās prayers had little effect.
Rumble...
East of Qinghe Village, Chilong Lake.
A thousand meters in the sky hovered a mass of pitch-black clouds.
Within the clouds, thousands of bolts of lightning struck continuously, impacting the edges of Chilong Lake within a radius of five kilometers. The entire body of water was encased tightly, resembling a spherical Thunder Prison from the outside.
If someone had sharp enough sight, they could see fifteen silhouettes within the Thunder Prison, each wielding various weapons, jointly confronting a thousand-zhang blood dragon.
"Roar..."
Above the thunder prison, the immense dragon body coiled and twisted. Four sharp claws slashed through the air, suddenly turning towards a middle-aged man in white wielding a silver long spear on the flank and roared angrily.
As the roar erupted, the black clouds above surged instantaneously, condensing fifteen thick bolts of lightning that struck precisely at the fifteen Xianyang Levels surrounding them. The largest bolt struck straight at the white-clothed middle-aged man on the flank.

Not only did the dragon use lightning, but it also launched streams of magma over three meters in diameter from its mouth, emitting intense heat, drowning the man in white almost instantly.
At this moment, an elder in blue wielding dual green swords dodged the lightning with a flash of his body, leapt high, and descended onto the dragonās forehead from above.
Along with his body, his green dual swords came crashing down.
As the green dual swords slashed down on the dragonās forehead, a thousand-zhang tall silver Bone Appearance silhouette emerged behind the elder. This ghostly figure also wielded dual swords, mirroring his movements, chopping fiercely at the dragonās forehead.
As the green dual swords descended, two fierce ghosts with azure faces and fangs flew out from the blade, biting down at the dragonās forehead.
Boom! Crack! Bang!
However, despite the two swords landing, no mark appeared on the dragonās forehead. It merely sagged several meters under the force, with the dragonās body not budging an inch.
"Roar..."
The dragon roared angrily, lifting its head sharply, flinging the elder off its forehead. It unleashed an even more intense column of magma from its mouth, forcing the elder to constantly dodge in the air.
Whoosh...
The magma column alone was over three meters in diameter, and with the dragonās head constantly adjusting its position, no matter how swift the elder was, he couldnāt continuously evade it. After dodging several times, he was eventually drowned by the magma column, just like the man in white earlier.
