C1378 Primordial Energy
But now, he had been sent flying by this youth and was heavily injured.
Unbelievable.
"Hahaha, my luck is so good. I got lucky."
Zhou Yan swept his gaze and grabbed the inner core of the black flood dragon in his hand. He immediately burst into laughter.
The Demonic Core of a half-step Martial Ancestor contained pure Yuan Qi and was extremely valuable.
Furthermore, this was not only an inner core, but it also contained dense Demonic Qi that could help one's cultivation speed increase.
The effect would be even better if it was used to set up an array.
However, this was useless to Zhou Yan.
His goal was the essence of the Demonic Core.
"Brat, if you dare to steal my things, I will definitely take revenge."
The black flood dragon laid on the ground, on the verge of death, but it was still cursing.
"Noisy!"
Zhou Yan frowned and flicked out a wisp of flame with his finger.
The Black Flood Dragon's body was engulfed in raging flames.
"Ah... Spare me."
A moment later, the black flood dragon screamed in pain. Its entire body was charred black and white smoke rose from it.
This flame was called Fire. Its temperature was extremely high, and it could even melt rocks.
It had yet to break through at its peak, so it naturally couldn't withstand this heat.
"Humph, I said that I would make you pay the price." Zhou Yan's face was cold.
"No! Don't kill me. I beg you, don't kill me."
The black flood dragon wailed in pain.
"Hmph, it's not impossible for me to spare you."
Zhou Yan's expression was arrogant. He changed the topic and said, "As long as you are willing to submit to me and become my servant, I will spare your dog life."
"Of course, you must swear that you will never resist me."
"What?! You want me, a Grandmaster Demonic Beast, to be your slave?!" The Black Flood Dragon was furious.
"Hehe."
Zhou Yan sneered: "Don't talk to me about rules. You only have three choices. Either you die, or you submit, and maybe you can leave a complete corpse."
"This..." The Black Flood Dragon hesitated and struggled.
How proud was it? How could it become someone else's pet?
"In that case, I can only send you to your death."
Zhou Yan's expression was cold and merciless. With a shake of his wrist, the Fading Fire surged out.
"No, I'm willing to be your servant!"
The Black Flood Dragon hurriedly opened its mouth and admitted defeat.
"You're smart."
Zhou Yan grinned and raised his arm to retract the flames.
In the next moment, the black flood dragon crawled up and laid in front of Zhou Yan. It lowered its head respectfully.
"Master!"
Its voice was filled with fear.
"Very good."
Zhou Yan nodded.
Although this black flood dragon was a Grandmaster Demonic Beast, it didn't have much intelligence after all, so it couldn't hide anything from him.
This guy only bullied the weak and feared the strong.
"Master, I still have a few inner cores here."
Immediately, the Black Flood Dragon took out a few dark green inner cores. Its eyes rolled around as it handed them over to Zhou Yan in a fawning manner.
"You're quite sensible."
Zhou Yan nodded slightly and took the few inner cores.
These Inner Dans were all Grade Six and Grade Five, which would be of great help to martial artists.
Even cultivators at the late stage of the Innate Realm could increase their cultivation after devouring the Inner Cores.
Although Zhou Yan was at the ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm, he was still a distance away from the Innate Realm.
Therefore, he took it without any hesitation.
"Let's go!"
With a wave of his sleeves, Zhou Yan placed his hands behind his back and headed deeper into the forest.
The black flood dragon followed closely behind.
Suddenly, Zhou Yan stopped in his tracks. A strange look flashed across his eyes as he looked to his right.
At that moment, he heard a faint panting sound.
It was a girl. Her clothes were in a mess, and her delicate face was filled with shame and despair.
Her body was covered in wounds and the clothes on her chest were tattered.
"Save me, I'm a soldier of the Capital's Guard Palace. Please, save me."
Seeing Zhou Yan, the young girl's beautiful eyes flashed as she immediately shouted.
"So it's someone from the Royal City's Wei Mansion."
Hearing that, Zhou Yan came to a sudden realization.
With a thought, he raised his hand and shot out several gusts of wind.
Puff, puff, puff!
Wherever the wind passed, figures appeared one after another, falling to the ground and unconscious.
"Thank you, Young Master."
Thank you, Young Master. The girl's face was pale white as she thanked him.
"You're welcome." Zhou Yan waved his hand and asked indifferently, "Miss, why are you here alone?"
"During this training, we offended the Iron Sword Sect and were chased for two days."
The girl revealed a worried expression: "They should be nearby right now. Any later and they'll be killed."
"Iron Sword Clan?"
Hearing this word, Zhou Yan raised his eyebrows and remained silent.
The Iron Sword Sect was one of the top forces in the capital. Not only did they have many Grandmasters, but they were also extremely powerful.
In the Southern Sun County, only a rank 8 Grandmaster could suppress the Iron Sword Sect.
"How about this? I'll give you some healing medicine, and you can find a quiet place to heal yourself."
After pondering for a moment, Zhou Yan took out a bottle of healing pills and handed it to the young girl.
"Thank you, Young Master."
The young girl revealed a happy expression and shed tears of gratitude.
"En, goodbye!"
Zhou Yan nodded and walked away.
Whoosh!
In the next moment, the black flood dragon soared into the sky and carried Zhou Yan, instantly disappearing from the end of the forest.
"I actually lost my storage ring."
Zhou Yan shook his head and sighed.
Since he had entered the Green Wood Forbidden Area with a special identity, he naturally could not carry his storage ring with him.
Furthermore, there were far too many treasures within the interspatial ring. Even he had to treat it with caution.
Therefore, when he first entered the valley, he put the interspatial ring aside and waited for the right moment to take it out again.
Who would have thought that the black water dragon would take advantage of this.
If it wasn't for Zhou Yan's extraordinary strength, he would have died here today.
"Looks like I have to pay more attention in the future."
Zhou Yan was on guard.
"These pills are enough to heal your injuries. I hope you won't let me down."1
"Furthermore, your strength is far too weak. If you continue to stay here, you will sooner or later be hunted down by other Vicious Beasts. I advise you to leave as soon as possible."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Yan jumped into the depths of the treetop.
"Young Master, I will never forget your kindness of saving my life."
Seeing that, the young girl was filled with gratitude and solemnly promised.
...
Night fell.
Deep in the forest, a bonfire was burning.
Zhou Yan was sitting beside the fire, roasting hare meat. The fragrance of the meat wafted through the air.
"Haha, it smells so good."
Zhou Yan reached out his hand and tore off a large piece of the rabbit leg as he gorged himself.
Unknowingly, Zhou Yan had already finished eating the entire roasted rabbit.
"Not bad, it's much stronger than that stupid Flood Dragon."
Zhou Yan patted his stomach in satisfaction.
"Hmm?"
At this moment, Zhou Yan's ears twitched.
In the next moment, he suddenly stood up and dashed a hundred meters away to hide.
Not long after, a group of figures rushed over from afar.
"Captain, are you sure that beast escaped here?"
"This place is covered in weeds. Where are the spiritual beasts?"
"Captain, you didn't remember the wrong way, did you?"
Captain, did you remember the wrong direction?
"There's no mistake."
There's no mistake. The leader of the group was decisive.
His name was Zhao Hu, and he was a First Sky Connate Realm martial artist.
