Indestructible Body Of Vajra Of The Village Leader-Chapter 1349 - 1038: Demon Dragon Battles Fire Qilin!

Chapter 1349: Chapter 1038: Demon Dragon Battles Fire Qilin!

Wooong!——

The murky and turbulent river water seemed like clouds rising and rolling over the surface, churning ceaselessly.

Two gigantic beasts were entangled in a ferocious battle in the river water, their power was tremendous, and their roars shook the sky, causing the river water to surge like galloping dragons and horses, crashing against the shores and reefs. This immediately drew the attention of everyone by the riverbank, sparking a clamor of surprise and awe.

When the Fire Qilin fell into the water, the flames on its body were extinguished significantly. Although some fire still burned while submerged, its power was greatly suppressed. Just as it attempted to struggle and break free to the surface, it was rapidly entwined by the approaching Demon Dragon, and instantly, rage and fury ignited a fierce struggle between them.

The Demon Dragon, utilizing the currents, was much stronger underwater than on land, even surpassing the Fire Qilin. After entangling the Fire Qilin, it forcefully dragged it into deeper waters.

The Fire Qilin reacted swiftly, albeit a slight delay, roaring and screeching. Its powerful hooves and claws stretched out, sharp and dark as if demonic, viciously clawing at the Demon Dragon’s face.

The Demon Dragon gathered all its strength, ducking its head to ram forward with the short horn on its forehead.

Bang!

The clash between the two beasts created a muffled sound wave of Qi Force, causing a large explosion of water and foam on the surface. Nearby river fish were stunned to death and floated to the surface.

Exclamations rose from countless people on the riverbank.

The two gigantic beasts relentlessly rolled in the water, each collision like the boom of heavy artillery, releasing incredible force, creating impact waves that exploded water surges skywards.

Jiang Dali focused his gaze, observing the intense battle between the giant beasts below the water.

Seeing the Demon Dragon temporarily wrapped up with the Fire Qilin, its elongated blood bar just slowly fluctuating, maintaining control of the situation, he sighed with relief.

"Master Jiang!"

Wudang Mu Dao Ren and others guarding the entrance of Lingyun Cave looked towards the tattered and scorched Jiang Dali, their eyes seeking guidance.

Jiang Dali spoke in a deep voice, "I’ve exhausted too much, now I need to recover quickly. You guys follow the plan and jointly prevent the Fire Qilin from re-entering Lingyun Cave. The main objective this time is to exhaust this beast so it’s thoroughly drained before we can carry it away!"

"Yes!"

"No worries, Master Jiang!"

"Leave it to us!"

Wudang Mu Dao Ren and the seven others responded in unison.

Master Huiqi also looked at Jiang Dali, pressing his hands together, "Amitabha Buddha! Master Jiang, take your time to recover, I will guard here!"

Jiang Dali solemnly nodded, glanced at Dongfang Bubai, then gathered energy, leaping several times to rise onto the right shoulder of the giant Buddha.

At this moment, on the left shoulder of the giant Buddha, Murong Qingqing and Wang Yuyan were there.

The two women exchanged a reassuring glance with him, then Jiang Dali sat cross-legged, raising both hands to chest level, even with Dan Zhong, as his breath started spreading throughout his body.

He then gently pressed down, sinking Qi into Dantian, followed by forming the Inner Lion Seal, commencing cultivation and luck, rapidly restoring Inner Strength.

In the earlier entanglement with the Fire Qilin inside Lingyun Cave, although he wasn’t severely injured, the maintenance of the Destruction State with the Golden Bell Unbreakable Body and the physical exertion were extremely intense.

Currently, his entire Inner Strength was depleted by a full sixty percent, and Physical Strength was significantly reduced.

Therefore, he must swiftly recover, to once again maintain intensive suppression over the Fire Qilin.

Only under such a continuous cycle of battles, can the once energetic Fire Qilin be completely exhausted and bound.

It was now already dusk, the sun setting by the horizon, deeply red with the afterglow of the sunset filtering through the clouds, casting a shimmering line of gold in the heart of the river.

Night was approaching.

In the river, waves surged and torrent flew.

The Fire Qilin was fully motivated by its survival instinct in the water, seemingly activating its Mad Blood, fiercely battling the Demon Dragon to madness, roaring and striking under the water, causing terrifying sounds, shaking waves and surging curtains of spray soaring skyward.

In terms of raw combat power, the Demon Dragon was no match for the Fire Qilin.

However, the water environment completely suppressed the Fire Qilin’s power, preventing its fire attribute from concentrating effectively.

While the Demon Dragon originates from the water, it can exert greater strength, the two creating an imbalance in land factors, coupled with the time closing to nightfall, and Jiang Dali and others having previously worn down the Fire Qilin, this situation, in terms of time, location, and harmony, was entirely unfavorable, making this battle, truly disadvantaging the Fire Qilin.

The ability to remain evenly matched at this moment was solely because the Fire Qilin was desperate, while the Demon Dragon wasn’t willing to fight with all its might.

Under the gradually darkening sky, closely monitored by countless eyes, half an incense stick time later——

Crashing!——

The churning river water suddenly surged into massive waves, spreading to both sides.

The Fire Qilin’s large head burst from the water, furiously breaking free from the Demon Dragon’s entanglement, emerging from the surface, raising huge waves.

It’s originally near-extinguished flames abruptly reignited on its vast dark body, glowing rapidly once more, weak flames rising around it.

Suddenly, its lion head lifted high, howling long into the sky, fiercely charging forward over the waves, rushing straight towards Lingyun Cave.

"Form the formation!"

Wudang Mu Dao Ren and others, long prepared, shouted in unison, swiftly stepping into the formation.

Seven people simultaneously voiced sharp whistles, drawing their swords, the sword momentum hummed continuously.

Their steps neither too scattered nor focused, resembling shadows, swiftly spreading left and right, gradually advancing, instantly forming a tight sword net, enveloping the approaching Fire Qilin.

The Fire Qilin, seeing its path home obstructed once again, flew into a furious rage, suddenly transforming into a blazing fireball, surging upwards with astonishing speed, like a meteor or comet charging headlong at the Wudang seven.

"Activate the formation!"

Purple Sun Taoist shouted first, wielding a sword shining coldly, leading the first strike.

The other six darting like flying leaves, their robes fluttered perfectly.

Sword lights flashed swiftly, following each strike, instantly creating unceasing sword lights, like tortoises and snakes coiling, dazzling to the eyes.

Clang!!!——

The sound of seven metallic clashes resounded almost as one.

At the exact same moment, they struck the Fire Qilin’s lightning-fast claws, piercing into the scale armor.

"-231!"

A small damage value appeared above the Fire Qilin’s long blood bar.

Though the damage was small, the seven from Wudang coalesced into a single entity at this moment, creating a formidable force that caused the Fire Qilin to inadvertently halt its onslaught.

The seven swords bent simultaneously into a hair-raising arc and then, infused with Qi Force, suddenly rebounded, forcing the Fire Qilin to retreat and land from mid-air.

"Whoa!!"

The seven also simultaneously coughed up blood and retreated, feeling as if they had struck pure metal where their swords landed, while the flames around the Fire Qilin seemed to form an intangible energy field that vaporized Inner Strength and significantly reduced damage. They had to hurry back, utilizing Protective True Qi to shield themselves.

"Amitabha Buddha! Prajnaparamita!" 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

A chess piece radiating Buddha Light suddenly swept over with two nearly invisible Poison Needles, targeting the Fire Qilin’s nose and eyes.

Thud!!

At the same time, a zither sound like a heavy hammer emanated from the Buddha’s shoulder, rushing into the Spirit.

Murong Qingqing, seated cross-legged on the left shoulder of the Leshan Giant Buddha, played the Heavenly Demon Sound at a critical moment.

"Roar!!!"

The Fire Qilin’s entire fiery body swayed as it let out an unwilling roar of anger.

In mid-air and already descending, it had no way to move, forcing it to lower its head quickly to deflect the chess piece and Flying Needle with its antlers, its massive body unable to maintain flight, falling backward.

Yet in that crucial moment, the Fire Qilin swiped a claw downward, the flame-infused claw winds ripping through the air like five whistling meteors, racing toward the nearest He Qiwu.

He Qiwu gasped in surprise, took a deep breath, and leapt sideward toward the river, risking death for a chance of rebirth.

The claw wind slashed across his shoulder with a "hiss," and He Qiwu leapt with all his might, feeling a burning pain as his shoulder was torn open and his entire arm was shredded and singed.

In agony, he did not look back.

Launching the "Flying Star" move from his Continuous Life-taking Sword Skill, the longsword struck the Fire Qilin’s hind leg with a ding, and he simultaneously plunged into the river with the Fire Qilin.

"Roar!"

In the river, the Demon Dragon roared again, churning and seizing the frustrated and enraged Fire Qilin, forcibly dragging it towards the riverbed.

Such relentless onslaughts, almost completely subduing the Fire Qilin, left many Players and Martial World people on the riverbank astonished and deeply shocked.

In these circumstances, the Fire Qilin had no way to return to Lingyun Cave to enter its home turf; in the river, it could only be passively beaten, with no hope of turning the tide.

...

The time of two incense sticks passed in a flash, and the few clouds in the sky scattered, turning into vibrant purple-crimson sunsets, casting everything on the ground in a rosy glow.

The River Wind carried the exhausted, beast-like cries far, evoking a sense of desolate sorrow.

A much-anticipated battle, now nearing its conclusion.

Even with its incredible stamina, after fiercely battling Jiang Dali and repeatedly clashing with the Demon Dragon in the water, the Fire Qilin was utterly exhausted.

After failing twice more to return to Lingyun Cave, the Fire Qilin fell back into the river, barely mustering the energy to exchange Wang Ba Fists with the equally exhausted Demon Dragon, a last display of Dragon Seed defiance.

At this moment, on the Buddha’s right shoulder, Jiang Dali, who had been sitting cross-legged, slowly stood up.

When most people saw his powerful frame rise, their minds were filled with a single thought—"The Fire Qilin is done for!"

With wild eyes and full of presence and energy, Jiang Dali gazed at the now much quieter river below, chuckled lightly, and calmly said, "Fire Qilin, this time I’ve got you for sure."

His Inner Strength had fully recovered an incense stick’s time ago.

Seeing the battle stabilize below, he had held back from intervening swiftly.

But now, with the Fire Qilin’s Physical Strength mostly drained, he could easily capture it.

Yet, compared to the smooth process he anticipated for subduing the Fire Qilin, the current situation, though safe, had its share of twists and turns.

After all, the Fire Qilin’s near immunity to Spirit Cage type Primordial Spirit Skills was an unexpected variable.

If not for this, subduing this fierce beast wouldn’t have required much effort.

Jiang Dali speculated that the Fire Qilin’s immunity to Spirit Cage was either due to its bloodline or its past as a Returning to Truth level beast; even though its power had fallen, it retained immunity to Primordial Spirit attacks, which might explain why Xiong Ba temporarily refrained from troubling this beast.

Thoughts flashed through his mind with lightning speed, and Jiang Dali glanced at Murong Qingqing and smiled, saying, "Play a lullaby to aid me, now is the best time to subdue this beast."

With those words, Jiang Dali clenched his fists, eyes gleaming, his steps shifting to a "Yaozi Flips" lunge, changing the "Three Water Copies" mid-air to crash into the tumultuous river surface below with a boom.

Buzz!——

Amidst surging splashes, Jiang Dali propelled himself like a cannonball toward the now-panicking Fire Qilin, grabbing the thick Wisdom Blessing Prayer Beads from its neck, and forcefully wrapping them around its head.

"Now you’re caught, hahahaha!"
