Don't Mess with That Dragon-Chapter 578 - 028 Demon
This "Demon" is a towering five-meter humanoid behemoth,
having haunted the village for over a century, engaging in wits and courage battles with the village's hunting party, causing numerous casualties among the villagers.
The previous generation's old Village Chief was severely injured in the battle against this demon, ending his path and leading to his eventual withdrawal, barely hanging on to life.
However, in that battle, the old Village Chief also severely injured the demon.
They had been at peace with each other for several years.
But today, for unknown reasons, the demon that hadn't appeared in years emerged once again, attacking the village.
The raid was too sudden.
Before everyone could react, the massive shadow had already demolished several houses, sending a few villagers flying, then charged headlong into the village center with a booming force.
Lin Han clearly saw,
It was evidently a demon beast of the Condensing Essence Realm.
Silver-backed gorilla!
Its enormous body, blue face and fangs, exerted an overwhelming oppressive force, with the dark night looming behind it, like a Divine Demon descending from another world.
Just standing in front brought an unbearable sense of dreadful oppression.
"Damn you, seems like last time didn't hurt you enough. Seeking death? I'll fulfill your wish!"
At this moment,
Seeing the silver-backed gorilla appear, with enemies meeting again, eyes reddened, the old Village Chief, who had been cured within these ten days by Lin Han, sprang up from his seat.
The hunchbacked body burst forth with a terrifying aura at this very moment.
Condensing Essence Realm!
This old man living in the mountain village turned out to be a master of Condensing Essence and Opening Acupoints!
Suddenly, he unleashed terrifying Gang Qi as powerful as billowing waves from his hands, adopting a posture of embracing the void, pressing down like lightning.
Swoosh!
The air currents began to tremble intensely in an instant, as if stirred into a paste by pairs of invisible hands, visible ripples spreading out.
One after another, waves of illusionary palm shadows emerged from his hands,
Then,
The palm shadow swept across, like a storm, striking toward the bonfire in the center of the square which was burning fiercely. The huge bonfire seemed to be added with boiling oil, the already fierce flame surged high, towering over several meters, like an angry dragon made of flames, sweeping through the void, engulfing and devouring all the heat within a ten-meter radius!
The flames roared, illuminating the entire night sky!
Half the horizon was set ablaze by this fierce flame.
Lin Han watched this scene in shock, unable to fathom that this elder, who had seemed to be on the brink of death moments before, could unleash such terrifying power!
"Roar!!!"
The fire dragon roared, and the silver-backed gorilla sensed danger too, madly rushing forward, nimble like a divine dragon, moving with the speed of lightning, engaging in combat.
The sound of violent explosions continuously echoed.
Firelight blossomed everywhere, as the whirlwind swept across the world.
The old Village Chief fought and controlled the fire dragon, with the scorching air currents from the fierce battle forming spirals, drawing whirlwind-like gales, shredding and pulverizing the surrounding buildings! 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎
The horrifying battle aftershocks were impossible for outsiders to intervene.
However, after a stalemate for a while, the situation quickly became dire.
The old Village Chief was ultimately aged, while the silver-backed gorilla was still in a vigorous state, with the demon beast's physical abilities being several times stronger than humans.
Relying on the overpowering Fire Manipulation capabilities, he could hold off momentarily, but against the silver-backed gorilla's mountain-shattering attacks, he was likely to be defeated soon.
At the critical moment,
Lin Han picked up a bow hanging in the Village Chief's house, using all his strength to draw the bow, likely a Spiritual Artifact, locking in on the frenzied silver-backed gorilla's eye with Austin's Spiritual Power and shooting an arrow into it.
One eye shot blind,
instantly, the silver-backed gorilla went into a frenzy, wildly thrashing about, stamping the ground to collapse it into large pits, and causing spider-like cracks to spread out.
Madly rampaging, vast swathes of houses were destroyed.
Pounding the earth causing tremors and landslides!
The dreadful vibration made it impossible for the surrounding young hunters to even approach!
Finally, seizing the opportunity of the silver-backed gorilla's frenzy, the old Village Chief launched an attack, Spiritual Power transforming into a flaming arrow, piercing the second eye.
In the destruction of both eyes, the silver-backed gorilla became even more violent.
Finally, relying on the advantage of vision, the old Village Chief executed the Sea of Fire move, inflicting heavy damage on the silver-backed gorilla, the terrifying Flame Storm scorching all its hair, turning one arm to ashes, leaving only a bald and charred smelling one-armed figure fleeing desperately towards outside the village.
This battle ended with the silver-backed gorilla heavily injured and escaping.
However,
the leading old Village Chief was also, after the silver-backed gorilla's counterattack, near death, barely clinging to life.
Ultimately aged,
even though Lin Han, following Austin's method, healed the old man's years-old hidden injuries, he still couldn't restore him to his full glory.
Seeing the old Village Chief with only half a breath,
the surrounding villagers ignored their homes turning into ruins, earnestly pleading Lin Han to save the old Village Chief, with some even directly kneeling on the ground.
Lin Han quickly pulled the villagers up,
wanting to save, it's difficult.
According to Austin's investigation, the old Village Chief inherently didn't have many years left, now erupting dramatically, Primordial Qi was already exhausted, barely able to maintain life initially using pills made from Spirit Medicine.
A month,
This was the maximum time Lin Han could delay the old Village Chief's life according to Austin's description.
Unless, within this period, they could find a Spirit Medicine or Spirit Fruit above the Profound Tier, possessing powerful Life Force, and make it into a Life Reviving Pill, otherwise, there's no way.
Spirit Medicine above Profound Tier needs to contain immense Life Force.
That's almost impossible.
Because, not to mention the rarity of Profound Tier medicines, they only occasionally appear in large-scale auction markets, that possessing strong Life Force Spirit Medicine and Spirit Material inherently have functions of prolonging life, healing wounds, making them several times more expensive.
It's beyond what money can buy.
They have no connections.
At this moment, the old Village Chief's granddaughter said she had once accidentally stumbled into the forbidden zone deep within the mountains, and saw growing inside the mountain dominator's lair a Spirit Medicine emitting multicolored light, incredibly lush with vitality, potentially able to save the old Village Chief's life.
Upon hearing this, the village's hunting party youths eagerly prepared to venture inside to retrieve that Spirit Medicine.
These simple mountain folk, living in the mountains, evidently value sentiment more than outsiders.
The old Village Chief had saved the whole village once before, and now they've harmed themselves gravely for them, in their simple-minded thoughts, they must save the old Village Chief's life.
The forbidden zone dominator, according to the mountain folk's guesses, is at least a super demon beast of the Sea of Qi Realm or above.
Lin Han sighed.
Preparing to go along with them.
