Starting with watering the World Tree for otherworldly survival

Page 369

"Flame Glaze, Lamp Glaze, and Blazing Lightning, follow Miss Zhuang to the southwest... there is a centaur warrior who escaped the net there."

"My drone swarm has already cast a weakening spell on it; the centaur, which was originally at the peak of the seventh tier, is now only at the peak of the sixth tier."

Understanding Qin He's meaning, even though they were at the peak of the sixth-tier centaurs, the young dragons were not afraid. The inherent disadvantages brought about by their physical structure made it difficult for centaurs to gain the upper hand in battles against dragons.

……

The Mo Ti clan was unaware that Su Luo had already fallen into Qin He's grasp.

Beyond the desolate forest, the centaur warriors fleeing for their lives were struck by beams of demonic light. It was a degraded curse spell, causing Su Luo's strength, which was at the peak of the seventh rank, to gradually drop to the peak of the sixth rank.

If Qin He needs it, or if the four reverted dragon cubs are no match, the spell-equipped drones can cast even more curses—

Knowing they couldn't stop, they were already being watched. If they stopped here, the Inkhoof Clan would be held hostage for nothing, and their cavalry would lose supplies.

If they fall here, it may be the common end for many clans.

Suddenly, a dark cloud appeared on the horizon. A vibrant, dazzling purple scale outlined a leaping death against the gradually darkening sky.

"A purple... dragon?!"

Despite being a young, atavistic dragon with a wingspan and body length of only five meters, her stunningly dangerous beauty still sent shivers down the spines of even the horses.

Immediately, the blinding breath radiated across the field with bursts of light powerful enough to blind any living creature.

"Centaur, kneel down and you will be spared."

While ordinary people risk permanent blindness from this dazzling breath, Su Luo Mo Ti, who had reached the peak of the seventh rank, was no ordinary person.

Three minutes, within three minutes. It can regain its sight! But... it has already been discovered by the dragon.

Can we really fight our way out? This question only lingered in Su Luo's mind for a moment before disappearing from his thoughts.

"We'll die in front of the Centaur Princess's tent! Since she gave the order... even if the Mohoot Clan dies, we can't die in vain! Meaninglessly!"

That's just a young dragon, just a young dragon!

The men, their killing intent surging, drew their iron bows and, in the now-vanished sight, predicted the location of the Purple Dragon, and then—released their arrows!

The warrior's perfect instincts sent the iron arrow hurtling straight through the air. The blades between the purple dragon claws flashed, slicing the wind-like iron arrow to obliterate it mid-air.

"Lightning! Blazing Lightning!"

The two simultaneous sounds of earth breaking apart indicated that the young dragons were digging their way in to launch a coordinated attack.

The tail sweep and leg slash are both the Iceborne Dragon's tail blade, capable of breaking through city walls, and the unparalleled, fierce, and domineering power of the ancestral young dragon!

Qi Zhi's surprise attack was aimed at crippling the target outright. The chilling blade energy and lightning-fast sweeping strikes immediately made Su Luo feel threatened.

Knowing that this battle would be difficult, and that he could not afford to fall here, the centaur warrior desperately mustered his fighting spirit and leaped into the air!

Having escaped the attack of the two young dragons, if Su Luo had been struck in the calf from the front, he would likely have immediately lost the ability to move.

As Su Luo leaped into the air, sheathed his iron bow and swung his strange iron spear with the wind.

Not knowing where the attack would come from, it could only desperately defend itself.

But the four baby dragons' abilities far exceeded the centaur warriors' expectations.

"Ice Spell Majesty! Come forth!"

The Zero Jade of the Ice Curse Dragon within Lantern Liu's body stirred up an incomparably domineering and chilling aura.

Although this natural energy did not target its allies, it still made Flame and Lightning, who had the blood of a red dragon, feel uncomfortable.

They used their burning aura to defend themselves. Even so, the mutated majesty emanating from the Ice Dragon still made them feel somewhat uneasy.

"This is true majesty!"

The Zero Jewel, possessing the Ice Dragon, contains an almost inexhaustible supply of ice-attribute natural energy, which enabled Tōryū to fully learn the Cold Majesty that only adult dragons can unleash during his juvenile stage!

This means that... she can maintain her dignified effect as long as she wants.

With this power, she can be invincible against young dragons who cannot use auras!

Moreover, by incorporating the bloodline of the Ice Dragon, Lantern's skill in ice sculpting has also improved.

Not to mention, Lantern also stored dozens of times more supercooled water within her spatial scales than her own scales. This water was imbued with the life energy of the Ice Dragon, enabling her to activate her abilities.

Today marks the first time she has revealed her true colors. As a dragon, her understanding is tied to her state of mind.

If a dragon were to find a magic book, it might take it ten days or half a month to master all the magic within.

But if it obtains the treasure it desires and finds satisfaction, then the dragon's comprehension may increase dramatically due to the fulfillment and contentment it experiences.

For Deng Liu, no treasure could be more important than Qin He. Qin He gave her the love she had always dreamed of, and that was more fulfilling than any treasure in the world.

With this sense of satisfaction, Teng Liu gained the most crucial insight into the field of freezing power.

Supercooled water, brimming with natural energy, was unleashed amidst the majestic power of the Ice Curse White Dragon. Suddenly, layers of ice appeared in mid-air, solidifying into the shape of a mighty dragon.

Like a mighty river that freezes in the blink of an eye, only to shatter into an icy river in an instant. The rushing ice fragments, under the blessing of the ice spell, gradually transform into the form of an ice dragon.

The razor-sharp ice dragon, its body as sharp as a blade, immediately lunged at the centaur in mid-air. Su Luo felt the imposing, freezing aura emanating from it, a suffocating sensation as if his blood were about to freeze, and the chilling killing intent closing in from behind.

These baby dragons... are monsters!

With a swift turn, the strange iron spear swept forward with tremendous force, striking the ice dragon's head! Most of the sharp ice blades scattered across the sky shattered into dust, but the remaining blades aimed directly at Su Luo's body.

Centaurs are taller than ordinary humans, and their size makes them like living targets among humanoid creatures.

"Battle Qi...can't be blocked?"

The aura of the ice spell, imbued with natural energy, could not be easily blocked by battle qi. The ice blade left countless gouging wounds on Su Luo's body.

The bloodied men and horses quickly landed on the ground. Even though they were covered in wounds, they had to leave immediately!

He would soon regain his sight, letting the warmth of the splattered blood give his body the strength to continue moving. Sulo Moti then turned away without looking back.

The Ice Curse's majesty has its effects; centered on the current Lantern, the energy of the majesty can affect things within a radius of thirty meters.

There is hope as long as you leave this area!

"What's that storage ring on your hand? Tell me honestly, Centaur. Either leave the item behind, or you leave with your life!"

Although Yanliu's personality has improved a lot compared to before, she still retains the ruthlessness of a red dragon in her bones.

By allowing the other party to leave behind a storage ring in exchange for a chance to escape, she can already be considered one of the gentlest red dragons in the world.

"I, Sulo Moti, will not choose between my own life and the lives of my people!"

Once again, he galloped away at breakneck speed, shattering the blood-icy shards that had formed on his wounds, and desperately tried to escape the effective range of the ice spell.

"very good!"

A burning aura erupted from Yan Liu's body, and the unparalleled power of the ancestral red dragon actually neutralized most of Deng Liu's ice curse majesty.

The red dragon, which swooped out, stretched out its sharp claws and tried to pounce on the man-horse directly.

A five-meter-long red dragon attacked a centaur warrior in this manner. Just like a lion and tiger fighting a deer with completely distorted proportions, like a predator, Yanliu was about to completely subdue the enemy who was trying to escape.

"Oh no, Yan Liu!"

Chidian noticed something unusual about the centaur warrior's posture around his shoulders and neck, and immediately tried to stop Yanliu.

But it was already too late.

Before the man moved, the spear arrived first. The centaur warrior fiercely attacked the red dragon with a superb backhand thrust!

If one were to be struck by the counter-attack of that strange iron spear, amplified by the battle aura of a sixth-tier peak warrior, even Yan Liu's hardest skull would be pierced on the spot.

However, Sulo Moti could not do that.

Enveloped in a burning halo, Yan Liu decisively sacrificed one wing. At the cost of her wing membrane being pierced and torn by an iron spear, she prevented the centaur's spear from hitting her greatest weakness as a dragon—her head and neck.

Before Yan Liu could react, Zhuang Daihua wielded a light blade formed from the breath of the blade, slicing open Su Luo's upper body.

At the same time, Qin He also arrived in person. The reason why Yan Liu was able to cleverly deflect the "return attack" was partly because he personally pushed aside the spear tip.

"Qin He...I..."

Zhuang Daihua suddenly seemed to realize something, but by the time she reacted, the centaur warrior had already breathed his last.

"It's alright~ You did a great job. Leave the rest to me..."

After repairing the damaged wing membrane of Yan Liu, Qin He looked at the dead centaurs and said:

"You deserve a complete corpse."

In the blink of an eye, he gathered all the icy energy that had been condensed in the majestic light of the Ice Lamp Spell into his hand.

After Qin He removed the storage ring that was still being desperately clutched even after death, he froze the corpse of Su Luo Mo Ti, the centaur warrior.

……

The next day, inside the Centaur Princess's tent.

“Olilette Cana, I want to talk to you.”

Clad in a black robe, Qin He swept through the centaur camps as if they were empty. Even Olilight, blessed by two orc chieftains, was no match for him.

A frozen centaur corpse and a storage ring appeared beside Qin He.

"The remains of your subordinate, or the military rations he kept in his storage ring. Which do you choose?"

The centaur princess, seated on her throne, had her weathered hands gripping a spear.

"I will never give up what belongs to centaurs!"

"Give it all back."

Chapter 431 She has two paths...

Arriving before Olilette alone, Qin He disregarded the centaur princess's personal guards.

A frozen centaur corpse, a storage ring that determined the course of the battle. Without hesitation, a sharp spear cleaved through the air, igniting the battle.

The spear in Olilette's hand was left behind by the most powerful god among the centaur race.

This "Burning Hellfire" weapon was forged by extracting the spine of an ancient red dragon and refining its tendons and blood.

The nearly 300-meter-long spine had become the spear Qin He saw today. Although its power could not be compared with that of a true ancient red dragon.

But the aura of the red dragon, which burned everything and destroyed everything in sight, still terrified Qin He.

With this item in hand, even if Volper and his companions obtained their ancestral bloodline, they might not be able to suppress the centaur princess in a direct battle.

Qin He had to reassess the disparity in strength between the two sides. Now... he needed to find a way to reduce the power of the Burning Prison War.

Just as he was pondering for a moment, the ferocious killing intent of the red dragon at the tip of the spear surged forth.

From a metaphysical perspective, the red dragon is undoubtedly the most malevolent and sinful dragon species in the world.

If a copper coin goes missing from its lair, the red dragons will fly into a rage and search for the thief. If they cannot find him, they will slaughter everything in their path, leaving the surrounding area a desolate wasteland.

If their wealth is less than that of other red dragons, they will also enrage and slaughter everything in their path. While venting their fury, they will violently seize any wealth that catches their eye, until their treasury surpasses that of their rivals.

Yan Ling is considered the most gentle and unconventional among the red dragons. Even when he goes berserk, he can only kill two golden fire dragons at most.

Aside from her feminine nature, Yanliu is someone you can get along with.

But the normal red dragon is the embodiment of violence and evil, a killing machine driven by greed.

The spear before us, made from the spine of a red dragon, is no longer just a simple dragon bone. It is made of refined gold and other mysterious materials, and has been specially crafted to contain the blood and resentment of the creatures slaughtered by this ancient red dragon.

In some ways, it does have something in common with the spear of the Frost Giant King.

In her previous agreement with Aiou, she had included this clause: "If Qin He and Zhong Liuxiu appear and make a move on the main battlefield, Aiou will also descend."

"If Qin He and Zhong Liuxiu do not come out, Ai Ou will stay behind."

What appears to be a treaty that prevents Qin He and Zhong Liuxiu from taking action is actually... a condition that Qin He himself induced Ai Ou to sign.

Qin He's actions this time signify the reappearance of the Nine-Headed Dragon God, Aio. This poses a crucial and enormous threat to the continent of Trahiel, and indeed to all of human civilization.

Although the resurrected loli Aio does not possess the authority of the former dragon god.

But once she appears and makes a move, she will inevitably attract the attention of all the powerful people in the world.

Prior to this, only a few people at the very top of the three chosen ones knew about the bet between Aiou and Qin He on the Dragon Emperor's throne.

The revelation of Aio's true form means that the existing power of the Dragon Domain Council may be inherited.

Qin He is practically a pure human being; if he were to come to power, the war would be fought with minimal bloodshed, and post-war peace and order would certainly be guaranteed.

If Aio were to become the Dragon Emperor, the unified Dragon Realm Council would undoubtedly become the greatest threat to humanity.

After today, Io will become the target of everyone's criticism. Qin He will support Volper and the others, gradually establishing a foothold in Trash.
