Chapter 97 Nine-Turn Resurrection Fruit
The lake water had an eerie turquoise color and emitted a faint fluorescent glow, making the entire underground space look like a dream.
In the middle of the lake, there is a solitary island.
On the isolated island, there grows a small tree that is crystal clear and looks like it has been carved from white jade.
It hangs with nine bright red fruits, emitting an enticing aroma.
"That is..."
Lu Xuan's pupils contracted sharply, and his breathing became rapid.
"The Nine-Turn Resurrection Fruit!"
"A legendary elixir, a hundred times more precious than the Nine-Turn Resurrection Grass!"
"I never imagined that such an extraordinary opportunity would be hidden beneath this Valley of Broken Souls!"
However, his joy was short-lived.
"Splash!"
The once calm lake surface suddenly exploded as a huge water monster shot into the sky, opening its blood-red maw to bite the two people who were still in the air!
This water monster has the body of a snake and the head of a dragon, and its entire body is covered with emerald green scales, exuding a suffocating and terrifying aura.
"It's a Azure Water Dragon at the half-step Celestial Origin Realm!"
Lu Xuan's expression changed slightly.
This is a mythical beast with a trace of true dragon blood, whose strength far surpasses that of other beasts of the same rank.
"Watch out, Qinghuan!"
Lu Xuan shouted and pointed his Devouring Heaven Sword, slashing towards the gaping maw.
when!
With a loud bang, Lu Xuan was thrown backward and crashed into the rocks on the shore.
The Azure Water Dragon was also blocked by this sword and fell back into the water, stirring up towering waves.
Roar!
The dragon roared, its massive body churning in the water, sending jets of water shooting towards the two of them.
Seeing this, Lu Xuan coldly shouted, "Its strength will be even greater in the water!"
"However, since you want to play, then I'll play along to the very end!"
"An indestructible golden body!"
Lu Xuan roared and charged forward again.
The Azure Dragon, seeing that Lu Xuan still dared to approach, became even more ferocious.
Its massive body swung violently in the water, creating an extremely violent current, like a long, emerald-green whip, lashing towards Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan neither dodged nor avoided the question: "Good timing!"
The black light of the Devouring Heaven Sword in his hand surged, and he slashed down at the dragon's tail.
when!
The clang of metal on metal echoed once again throughout the underground space.
Lu Xuan felt a tremendous force strike him, and his feet plowed two deep furrows before he could barely stop.
The Azure Dragon was also suffering.
The incredibly hard scales were actually ripped open by the Devouring Heaven Sword, and blood seeped out, staining the lake water red.
Awoo!
The dragon, in pain, became even more frenzied.
Its gaping maw opened, and a green water arrow shot towards Lu Xuan.
Water jets are highly corrosive.
"Haotian Sword Technique, Control!"
Lu Xuan quickly wielded his longsword into a curtain of swords, blocking all the water arrows.
"Qinghuan, strike at its weak point!"
Lu Xuan shouted and sprang up again, attracting the attention of the dragon.
Su Qinghuan was already poised to strike. Upon hearing this, she moved like lightning, her long sword transforming into a purple rainbow as she stabbed straight at the dragon's vital spot.
when!
However, when the sword struck the emerald scales, it only sent up a string of sparks, failing to even break through the defenses.
Su Qingqing's expression changed: "Those scales are so hard!"
This dragon's defensive capabilities are truly monstrous, even more terrifying than the previous Mountain-Moving Demon Ape.
Roar!
Enraged, the dragon swung its massive body, its huge tail lashing out at Su Qinghuan like a steel whip.
Upon seeing this, Lu Xuan swayed.
"Be careful!"
In an instant, he appeared in front of Su Qinghuan, his Devouring Heaven Sword blocking the attack.
boom!
With a muffled thud, the two were simultaneously sent flying, crashing into the stone wall.
Lu Xuan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his fighting spirit intensifying.
"This beast is troublesome!"
"However, since we can't break through its defenses, let it try this!"
After saying that, he took a deep breath, and the Primordial Pearl within his body began to circulate again, with a flame covering the sword.
"Haotian Sword Technique, Burn the Heavens!"
Lu Xuan's longsword transformed into a crimson fire dragon, slashing towards the dragon's belly.
That was its weakest point in defense.
Zizizi!
The moment the flames touched the scales, they melted instantly, emitting a burnt smell.
Awoo!
The dragon cried out in pain, its massive body churning in the water and creating towering waves.
"Now!"
Seizing the opportunity, Lu Xuan leaped up and landed directly on the top of the dragon's head.
"Haotian Sword Technique, Slay the Heavens!"
He gripped the sword with both hands, poured all his spiritual power into it, and slashed fiercely at the dragon's head.
Roar!
However, the dragon reacted extremely quickly, suddenly shaking its head and its huge horn crashing directly into the Devouring Heaven Sword.
A terrifying force of recoil struck, causing Lu Xuan's hands to go numb. He was thrown dozens of feet away and nearly fell into the water.
However, a deep crack was also cut into the dragon's single horn.
hiss!
The dragon opened its blood-red maw and spewed out another stream of dark green venom, corroding the spot where Lu Xuan had just stood into nothingness.
"This guy still has energy left!"
Lu Xuan, having regained his footing, frowned as he looked at the still ferocious dragon.
These half-step Heavenly Origin Realm demonic beasts are indeed not so easy to kill.
Moreover, it belongs to the dragon family, making it even more troublesome than the Nine Netherworld Scorpion from the Heavenly Origin Realm.
After all, the Nine Netherworld Scorpion has low intelligence and only possesses simple instincts.
Although his realm is high, his actual teaching is not as good as that of a half-step Heavenly Origin Realm dragon with wisdom.
The two people and the beast faced off on the lake, neither daring to make a move.
Despite Lu Xuan's numerous methods, this dragon possessed astonishing defensive capabilities and held a geographical advantage in the water. To kill it would require a considerable price.
The dragon was also very wary of the Devouring Heaven Sword in Lu Xuan's hand and dared not launch an attack easily again.
"Your Highness, this beast is too powerful; it will be difficult to subdue it in a short time."
Su Qinghuan came to Lu Xuan's side and said in a low voice.
"I know."
Lu Xuan nodded, his gaze still fixed on the dragon, but his peripheral vision kept a close eye on the Nine-Turn Resurrection Fruit on the isolated island in the middle of the lake.
As long as we can get the fruit, it doesn't matter whether we kill the dragon or not.
"Okay, I'll hold it off while you go pick the fruit!"
Lu Xuan transmitted his voice to Su Qinghuan.
"good!"
Su Qinghuan agreed without the slightest hesitation.
"Let's do it!"
Lu Xuan shouted and charged at the dragon again.
"Haotian Sword Technique, Chaotic Dance!"
Sword energy rained down from the sky, enveloping the dragon.
The dragon roared in anger, forced to divert its attention to defend itself.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Su Qinghuan moved like lightning, transforming into a streak of light and rushing towards the isolated island in the center of the lake.
"roar!"
The dragon sensed Su Qinghuan's intention and tried to turn around to stop her, but Lu Xuan held it tightly.
"Your opponent is me!"
Lu Xuan exerted all his strength, wielding the Heaven-Swallowing Sword with impenetrable skill, forcefully blocking the dragon's path.
Finally, Su Qinghuan successfully reached the deserted island.
……
"roar!"
When the Azure Dragon saw Su Qinghuan's feet land on solid ground on the isolated island in the middle of the lake, it became truly anxious.
The Nine-Turn Rejuvenation Fruit is a spiritual object that it has guarded for hundreds of years!
It will be ripe soon, how could I tolerate others taking it away?
