666: Chapter 453 666: Chapter 453 Jiang Tang watched the battle from inside the Flying Artifact, as over a dozen powerful individuals took on the East Sea Dragon King, the Southern Sea Dragon King, three Crown Princes, and three Princesses.
He switched on the projection wall of the Flying Artifact, and only then did everyone realize what was happening above the sea.
Aboard the Flying Artifact, which held hundreds of people, they ate food while watching the spectacle.
Dugu Yan’er and her elder brother saw their family’s Patriarch DuGu stealthily using Worm Insects, attempting to send worms into the dragon’s body.
Unfortunately, the Worms used by the Patriarch aimed to bite at a ghost soul, leading to the Dragon Soul emitting a dragon’s roar in an attempt to stun the Worm Insects.
The dazed Worms momentarily shook their heads and again tried to burrow into the dragon’s head to bite the soul, but were blown far away by a sneeze from the old dragon.
It wasn’t just a matter of getting near the old dragon; the worms were nearly sneezed to death.
Patriarch DuGu, flustered, couldn’t allow his Worms that he had nurtured for many years to be killed by the dragon’s spirit.
He had no choice but to release many more Worms, a type resembling red ants that fed on tears and blood and specifically targeted the heart and eyes.
Patriarch DuGu had resorted to these cunning Worms, but he would never use them against humans.
This dragon enraged him; his beloved Worms failed to handle a dragon, embarrassing him in front of his peers.
While his peers could employ various spells, his use of Worms and personal spells was the most formidable to his family.
If this old dragon liked to suck in seawater, he would just place the Worms there and let the dragon inhale away!
Patriarch DuGu had forgotten they were in the seawater absorbing vital Qi just a moment ago.
The Worms he released became immobile upon entering the water, not eager to suck any blood, floating in the seawater and disobeying their master’s commands as they absorbed the vital Qi.
Patriarch DuGu, whose orders the Worms ignored, grew even angrier, clapping his hands and shouting, urging the Worms to obey.
However, he soon realized that the Worms, once red, turned black and grew in size, absorbing the vital Qi; their red toxins faded, and their bodies turned green, transforming into life-giving Worms.
They no longer appeared as red ants but had become green caterpillars.
Patriarch DuGu felt linked to some of the Worms that emerged from his body and sensed their transformation, losing control over them gradually.
In a fit of rage, Patriarch DuGu almost coughed up blood.
At first, he was puzzled, but then it dawned on him: it wasn’t that the Worms were being defeated by the dragon, but rather they had entered the water and absorbed a different kind of life force, causing the Worms he nurtured with his blood to metamorphose.
What were once malevolent Worms became life-giving ones that were beneficial to the body.
Patriarch DuGu could only laugh ruefully, realizing these Worms, while useful to him, were no longer weapons for harm or battle.
A master of Worms with unusable Worms was akin to losing one’s limbs; he had no choice but to use other Magical Treasures and his own Mana to fight.
Knowing he couldn’t best the dragon’s spirit, he switched his focus to the slightly weaker Dragon Crown Princes and Dragon Princesses.
Dugu Yan’er sighed and covered her face inside the Flying Treasure, saying to her elder brother, “Patriarch is not as good as us; the Worm Insects our Golden Elf fostered are much more powerful!”
“Right, and you’ve seen that we use the male ones, sister.
You should find a way to have Jiang Tang gift you a female worm egg!”
Dugu Yan’er nodded; she had indeed thought of this already, now feeling a pang of jealousy toward Yun Duoduo who had received a female Moonlight Stone Elf egg from Jiang Tang, which had now formed a larva.
The elder of the North Cit Immortal Sect used a Magical Treasure trident, battling the Southern Sea Dragon King with strikes at his claws.
“Clang, clang, clang”
He could feel a painful vibration in his arm.
Now afraid to hold the Magical Treasure in his hand, he operated it directly with both hands, channeling his thoughts into action.
With his Magical Treasure pitted against the Southern Sea Dragon King, the dragon countered with his claws, which were more than just one set, and his sweeping tail.
The North Cit Immortal Sect elder fought alongside Elder Ximen against the Southern Sea Dragon King.
Elder Ximen used a disc-like Magical Treasure, which he launched at the Southern Sea Dragon King, slicing at his claws like a blade.
The Southern Sea Dragon King, knowing the danger, swept his claws, stirring up a gale intended to blow away the disc and the Magical Treasure.
His claws were like steel knives, and more so like a steel hammer, set on smashing the disc into pieces.
However, the Southern Sea Dragon King’s Soul Body, not his true physical form, was impervious to the disc; physically, it could not touch him.
Having lived more than ten thousand years without a physical form, the Southern Sea Dragon King had trained his Soul Body into a tangible entity; even absent a physical form, an Immortal spirit could defeat a great power from the Cultivation World who had yet to become an Immortal, two against one was not a challenge for him.
Yan Weiwei saw the elders and another mighty individual fight a Dragon Soul and end up at a disadvantage, turning to her senior and asking:
“Senior brother, our Patriarch’s Magical Treasure isn’t up to par, or maybe it’s his Power that’s lacking?
Can his abilities match that dragon’s?”
would Patriarch be enraged and spit blood if he heard his junior sister’s words?
He smiled at his junior sister and said, “Men like us can’t be said to be incompetent; it’s his Magical Treasure that’s too weak, outdated.
Our current Magical Treasures have infrared and electric functions.
His Magical Treasure only boasts immense destructive force, lacking these more powerful capabilities.”
Yan Weiwei…, there are such functions?
“Senior brother, what is infrared?
If a Magical Treasure is touched, it releases electricity.
Isn’t that like a person with a Thunder Spirit Root, able to generate electricity?”
