Otherworldly Desert Dust

Chapter 215 - 171 Little Yi Has Grown Up

The transformation of nearly a billion cubic meters of water into a primordial ancient beast was an extremely shocking sight, as the continuous mountains and the magnificent cities rose up, and a beast-shaped lake towered majestically. Like an ancient Kun, it devoured a hundred miles of rivers and mountains in an instant, sparing not even an ant!

As the lake transformed into a beast, the two Silver Winged Mantises reacted just in time and burst forth at sonic speeds, soaring into the sky.

They were already incredibly fast, like two silver meteors falling in reverse towards Heaven, yet the primordial beast that was the lake on the ground was even more terrifying. Standing upright, it was comparable to the thousand-meter-high Snow Mountains...

It was essentially an ocean rising up, forming an even more majestic mountain range on the western side of the city.

The two Silver Winged Mantises were enveloped by the vast water vapor, and they flapped their wings, attempting to flee to the ten-thousand-meter-high sky. However, below them, the lake formed a tremendous whirlpool’s maw!

This whirlpool stirred the air currents, all the water vapor, the continuous sea of clouds, and even pulled the cold air from high altitudes, causing the Silver Winged Mantises, even at ten thousand meters, to slow in their flight.

Eventually, the Silver Winged Mantises were sucked into the whirlpool’s maw, plummeting quickly into the belly of the lake, then along with the lake returning to the horizon line, they were smashed down!

"Rumble rumble rumble!!!!!"

Like thousands of waterfalls cascading down simultaneously, the entire lake returned to the large basin. Unbelievably, as it fell back into the lake, it didn’t cause the surrounding earth to quake or mountains to shake but settled gently and quietly, as if an invisible ancient hand was holding up the boundless sinking force, allowing everything to swiftly regain its calmness.

The lake was still a lake, and the green mountains merely looked as if they had been drenched by rain, clear and bright...

One person stood above the lake, and the special inscriptions on his body started to fade away bit by bit.

At the bottom of the lake, the two Silver Winged Mantises were shattered to pieces, ultimately drowning in the silt. Wu Hen looked down and could clearly see their skeletal remains.

As two wisps of soul breath barely began to float up, Little Yi accurately struck, gobbling up the two platters of high-protein food into his stomach. Smacking his lips, he was quite the adorable sight.

Wu Hen watched the Little Sword Spirit Dragon relishing the taste of delicious food and couldn’t help but scratch his head.

He had agreed to defeat the two Silver Winged Mantises on his own strength, yet he felt as if he had unwittingly used his powers again.

Recalling how he had slain Dao Master Yue Changqing of the Longevity Sect not long ago, it seemed that after he brandished his bronze spear, Yue Changqing became almost insignificant.

"Could there be a possibility that Yue Changqing wasn’t too weak, but that the Evil Weapon in the river was too fierce?"

"Its ferocity was probably encountered by Little Yi, who must have suppressed it."

Too ruthless!!

Wu Hen himself began to feel injustice for Yue Changqing.

Previously lacking a reference, Wu Hen wasn’t clear about Yue Changqing’s actual strength, so upon meeting him, he immediately summoned the Bronze Evil Spear.

The fight was over in just a few exchanges.

Now, after truly clashing with the Silver Winged Mantises for a while, Wu Hen used a bit of Engraved Divine Power and directly blasted the Silver Winged Mantises to death...

It was confirmed—the Evil Spear from the riverbed was definitely an Ancient Omen Divine Weapon. Wu Hen seriously suspected that Si Chuan failed to mention this, probably hoping he would take this Great Plague God out of the Scroll Realm!

Watching Little Yi eat joyfully, Wu Hen also took the opportunity to perform Breathing Control.

It seemed as if some small strands of fur had grown on Little Yi’s black ethereal body, and a layer of Black Glaze-like scales covered the tail.

Long Dragon Scales?

Does this indicate that Little Yi’s body is growing?

I don’t know what constitutes maturity...

If Little Yi were to be raised as a pet, it should also go through periods of embryo, infant, child, and primordial, right?

Right now, Little Yi could at most be considered in its juvenile phase. Once it is entirely covered in black scales, it will have reached the growth phase. However, it has yet to differentiate the Yin and Yang elements. The Yang element’s Black Divine Miracle Dominating Death Sword will probably only reappear at the sword element stage.

According to Gong Qin, Little Yi is still in the Sword Embryo realm. Now that small scales have grown, if we were to deduce from the growth patterns of dragons, most of them would have small scales during their Dragon Infant phase. When the body is fully covered by scales and dragon horns appear, it is considered a Dragon Child.

Dragon Horns...

Anyway, Little Yi’s head is currently smooth without even a hint of a protruding sign.

I wonder if obtaining Death Omen Yuan You’s power could make it grow little dragon horns ahead of time.

Correspondingly, the more developed Little Yi’s dragon form becomes, the more powerful its sword form will be.

"It seems that the abundance of delicious food produced by electro-fishing and Moon Eternity has allowed Little Yi to successfully molt from a Sword Embryo to a Sword Infant. The growth of scales is a sign, no wonder the power of the inscriptions on the Evil Spear has become more terrifying."

"That is to say, the upper limit of the Bronze Evil Spear is also very high. It will continuously unseal as Little Yi’s sword form grows."

Wu Hen has also transformed into a high-end breeder, focusing on Little Yi’s growth and changes, which also helps him clearly understand his current abilities and to what extent they can be enhanced."

"Yue Yongqing and these two Silver Winged Mantises should only be classified as Sixth-class Heavenly Brilliance."

"There’s a Fourth-class Heavenly Brilliance Poison Subhuman hidden here. I wonder if Little Yi will grow scales all over its body after swallowing its soul breath."

"The outside world is indeed more exciting with seafood, mountain delicacies, Spirit Fungus, Holy Meat, Demon Blood... Endless feasts, simply inexhaustible!"

Having just evolved to a Sword Infant, Little Yi already demonstrates terrifying battle power, filling Wu Hen with enthusiasm.

There will come a day when Little Yi and I return to our peak form. So, you First-class Hua Chen Twins, you rank seventeenth on the delicacy list, huh? Be it braised or spicy, I’ll let both you Dragon couple know who is the terrifying upright ape at the top of the food chain!

...

A hundred miles away, the expressions of three Poison Subhumans grew grim.

They witnessed the surging lake, whose power was extraordinarily unusual; even Heavenly Brilliance couldn’t withstand it.

The face of the Golden Eyes Poison Subhuman, however, was sinister and unyielding. There wasn’t much fear in his eyes, but rather an excitement tinged with the potential for slaughter.

"These Lower Seed People, their flesh is still stinking; hunting them is like digging for earthworms in rotten soil, hard to swallow. Rarely among them is one that turned into an Earth Dragon, whose flesh must be extremely delicious," the Golden Eyes Poison Subhuman stated.

"But Left Monarch has ordered us not to linger here, and especially not to be recognized by them," said the Poison Subhuman strategist holding a staff.

"I’m not stupid, and certainly not to the point of fighting it out with them in the Nuwa God End. Once we’re in the Infinite Red Port, we’ll have plenty of opportunities," the Golden Eyes Poison Subhuman stated.

"King, what do you think his strength is?"

"At most Fifth-class Heavenly Brilliance."

"Then it’s one class below you, sir. This difference is like that between wolves and rabbits, cheetahs and gazelles!"

The four Poison Subhumans still mingled in the crowd, talking as if they controlled the big picture, unaware that in an unseen place, a snow-white metal Rat was intently watching them...
