Chapter 94 Guest
A dragon can be big or small, can rise or hide.
When it is big, it raises clouds and swallows fog; when it is small, it hides its shape; when it rises, it soars into the universe; when it hides, it lurks within the waves.
"The Art of Transforming Heaven into a Dragon" is practiced with the blood of a dragon and the spirit of a dragon. The final dragon is also a dragon, and the dragon is exactly the kind of dragon that best fits the traditional dragon clan. It is not like the mythical beast Azure Dragon, which has the power of Yi Wood, nor does it have wings on its back like Yinglong. Except for the fact that its magical powers are not as powerful as those of a real dragon, it is not inferior in any way.
It can be big or small, can rise or hide!
Zhao Wumian turned into a dragon and dived into the sea. It was a magical feeling.
His breathing and swimming were not restricted by the water flow at all, as if the water was an extension of himself, and there was no difference between being in water and in the air.
In dragon form, he could see schools of fish gathering underwater with the roar of whales, as well as the gigantic overlord of the sea, the Sky-Devouring Whale, in the distance!
The size of a dragon is related to its cultivation.
Zhao Wumian was at the first level of the Third Realm, and his maximum size was no more than two meters. Compared with the Sky-Swallowing Whale's fifteen-meter size, it was insignificant. However, the Sky-Swallowing Whale sensed the breath of the dragon clan and began to become restless.
Zhao Wumian turned into a streak of white lightning and rushed forward.
On the back of the whale, there was a man standing. He was wearing a cloak, with his head and face covered so that his features could not be seen clearly. He was also wearing a water-proof dragon gauze dress. He was about to control the Sky-Devouring Whale to dive deep into the sea and destroy the ship when he suddenly sensed danger and looked up.
A white dragon rushed over!
The masked man was shocked, but he reacted very quickly, as if he had expected it. He immediately used his unique skill [Dripping Water Force], bent his fingers into a bow, condensed his energy into a string, and struck with a loud bang, comparable to a flying knife or a sharp arrow!
This is a special skill similar to [Finger of Magic], but what is shot out is not a physical hidden weapon, but real Qi!
After firing several bullets in succession, his air bullets were able to fly at high speed underwater.
Zhao Wumian was a little surprised. When ordinary people see a dragon, those who are before the fourth realm will be affected by the dragon's might and feel fear. However, the person in front of him was not even in the fourth realm, but he was able to fight back in the first moment.
There are only two possibilities: one is that it is extremely bold, and the other is that it was expected.
If it is the first one, it is easy to deal with. If it is the second one, it will be interesting.
Only twenty days had passed since the Battle of Purple Mountain. Zhu Biao had sent himself to cooperate with Chang Mao in transporting grain, and only a few people knew about it. However, now a masked man came who planned to destroy the ship, anticipated his appearance, and knew that he could transform into a dragon... It can only be said that the power behind him is extremely powerful.
After transforming into a dragon, its strength and speed are five times that of its human form.
With Zhao Wumian's physique, such an increase would naturally be even more terrifying.
Seeing the gas bullet coming, Zhao Wumian's figure flashed like lightning, drawing a line in the water, quickly avoiding the gas bullet, and quickly approaching. In the blink of an eye, he was behind the masked man!
After all, the masked man had never witnessed the power of the Dragon Transformation Art with his own eyes. Even if he had overestimated it, he still underestimated it. He only felt a sharp pain on his back, as if a mountain had suddenly fallen down, crushing his bones and muscles, and causing him to spit out blood!
The next moment, the man was blown toward the water by the immense force!
What a great speed!
What a great power!
The masked man was hit by just one move, and his internal organs were already shattered. He endured the severe pain and hurriedly made hand seals to cast the spell.
A light flashed in the eyes of the Sky-Swallowing Whale, and it roared again. Zhao Wumian was about to take advantage of the victory and pursue the enemy, but the sound wave caused all the energy in his body to suddenly stagnate!
At this moment, a large number of whales and sharks attacked from all directions, opening their mouths to bite the dragon's body. Unexpectedly, when the sharks bit down, Zhao Wumian's mouth was already full of blood before he could even move.
The tooth broke directly!
These sharks and whales are not even exotic beasts. No matter how big they are, they cannot have the strength to deal with the dragon.
The saying "A dragon swimming in shallow water is bullied by shrimps" does not work in this world.
Most shrimps don’t dare to play, and even those that dare to do so can’t do it.
The masked man took advantage of the situation to stabilize his body, changed his seal again, swung the Sky-Swallowing Whale's tail, and slapped Zhao Wumian!
You can imagine how powerful this 15-meter-long behemoth is.
Even if Zhao Wumian was indestructible, he would be injured if he took this blow.
He suddenly realized that this guy's target might be him!
Because at the same time as the whale's tail was lashed down, two giant sharks rushed over from below, with two masked men in black dressed in the same manner riding on their backs, each holding a magical weapon, just waiting for him to be hit down by their tails!
The dragon clan is very strong, but they are not invincible.
In this world, there are no invincible beasts. No matter how powerful the beasts from the mountains and seas are, there are precedents of them being slaughtered.
This is how all kinds of spiritual essence and blood come from.
"I am becoming more and more interested in you..."
A murderous intent flashed in Zhao Wumian's eyes, his body shook slightly, and the dragon body disappeared on the spot.
The giant tail of the Sky-Swallowing Whale smashed into the air, causing huge waves and turbulence on the sea!
Everyone on the Fu ship looked at the rough sea in the distance and worried about Zhao Wumian. The three men in black were also shocked by this scene - the one who was hit by the Sky-Swallowing Whale's roar could move so quickly!
"careful!"
Suddenly, the two men in black below opened their eyes wide and hurriedly communicated. The masked man who was hanging on the upper layer of the sea beast had his heart pounding. He looked back and saw the white dragon coming over his head like a ghost, with its mouth slightly open. The terrifying true energy gathered into a ball, ready to go. It was the unique skill he had used before, [Dripping Water Force]!
"How can this be?!"
The masked man looked at the spherical gas bomb so close to him with horror. How could a dragon body use martial arts!
That's because you are stupid!
Zhao Wumian knew what he was surprised about. Dragons can swallow clouds and spit out mist. Besides, he is not a real dragon. The "Heavenly Dragon Transformation Art" is still running in his body. He is just copying the "Water Dripping Force" and changing the operation and release of power. What is there to be surprised about!
"The Art of Transforming Heaven into Dragon" cultivates both Qi and energy, but emphasizes the body, and uses mostly power moves.
Chang Yuchun has always been straightforward, but Zhao Wumian has no intention of giving up the use of his true Qi.
It just so happens that [Water Dripping Power] is quite powerful and more useful than Yangwu Sword Qi, so I'll give it a try.
Zhao Wumian opened his mouth and spit out a spherical gas bomb, which hit the masked man's left shoulder directly and shattered his shoulder blade!
"what!"
The masked man opened his mouth and screamed, and the sea water rushed into his throat, forcing him to grit his teeth, close his mouth and hold his breath.
The entire left shoulder was missing a large piece of flesh and bone, and the left arm was also broken, with blood flowing out and the whole thing was a mess!
"Let me see how you can use your magic!"
Zhao Wumian defeated the masked man with one move and disappeared again.
The two men in black below understood that this was his true speed. It was rumored that Zhao Wumian knew the Tianji Palace's unique skill "Jinghong Treading Snow Steps", and his body movement was unparalleled. After changing into dragon form, he was so fast that even his shadow could not be seen. The reason why he disappeared was that the naked eye could not capture the process of his movement.
"puff!"
"puff!"
Two muffled sounds.
The two men in black looked down in astonishment and saw the dragon claw piercing their hearts!
The next moment, a terrifying devouring force emanated from the dragon claws. In just a few breaths, the two were sucked into mummies. Zhao Wumian rolled up their Qiankun bags, threw the corpses into the bags, jumped upstream, grabbed the masked man's head, and rushed out of the sea!
Without the masked man's control, the Sky-Swallowing Whale became a headless fly. Its instinct to save its master overcame its fear of the dragon clan. It swung its tail and its entire body followed Zhao Wumian out of the sea to rescue the masked man.
Just as it showed its head, a dazzling blade light flashed across - Fang Rui, who was ready to attack not far away, made his move!
When the magic elephant took action, its power was naturally unparalleled, and the Sky-Swallowing Whale was instantly split into two!
The huge whale head flew upwards for a while due to inertia, and then fell heavily into the sea.
The bright red blood soon dyed the sea red.
The big fish that were madly attacking the ship around immediately calmed down, shook their heads, reacted, and fled in all directions.
Zhao Wumian rolled the masked man back to the Fu ship, changed back to his original form, and quickly removed his veil.
Revealing the face of an ordinary middle-aged man.
Chang Mao looked at it carefully: "It looks familiar, as if I have seen it somewhere..."
Fang Rui returned to the Fu Ship and was surprised: "'Beast Maniac' Li Yuliang? No wonder he can control the Sky-Swallowing Whale!"
Chang Mao suddenly woke up: "It turned out to be him!"
Zhao Wumian didn't recognize this person's face, but he had seen the name "Beast Chic" in a book.
As the old saying goes: Birds have their own language, and beasts have their own language.
It is said that Gongye Chang, one of the 72 sages of Confucius, could understand the language of birds and could communicate with them; Jie Gelu, a Dongyi man, could understand the language of animals and could talk with cows.
"The Book of Zhou: Autumn Official Sikou" also says: "Yi Li is responsible for the work of herders, raising cattle and horses, and talking to birds; He Li is responsible for the work of serving the Bu clan, raising beasts, and teaching them to harass them, and talking to beasts."
This means that as far back as the Western Zhou Dynasty, the imperial court specially established two positions: Yi Li and He Li. The former managed the herdsmen and cattle and horses, and could also talk to birds; He Li was responsible for taming animals and could talk to them.
"Animal fanatic" Li Yuliang has a rare innate gift of being able to communicate with birds and beasts!
In the mythical Ming Dynasty, there were many strange and extraordinary people.
What really surprised the three people was not Li Yuliang’s talent, but his identity. He was a member of the Yin-Yang Taoist sect!
Zhao Wumian also took out the bodies of the other two people.
After Fang Rui read it, his expression became more serious: "'Water God' Zhu Yan, 'Three Finger Counting' Wen Runyi... they are all guests of Yin Yang Dao! What is Yin Yang Dao trying to do? Rebellion?!"
The beastman ambushed the grain transport fleet...
Encircling and killing Jinyiwei...
They are all plots to exterminate the entire clan!
Zhao Wumian frowned and thought to himself, "Once the grain ship capsizes, the war in the northern border will inevitably shrink, and the grain transportation trip will be ruined. Do they want to destroy the grain? Or do they not want us to go to Peking? Is there something going on over there? Or is there another reason? The situation is a bit complicated..."
