The Chaotic Demonic Smoke Pufferfish finally could not help but attack.
Their hard work in the past few days was definitely not for nothing. Faced with this situation, the two water-type Holy Disciples did not panic at all. Dense magical energy erupted from their bodies and their magical beast companions. The ultimate ninth and tenth water fused together in an instant, turning into a huge ball of purplish-black water that enveloped them.
Just as Ji Dong had said, water-type magic was the bane of the Chaotic Demonic Smoke Pufferfish, or in other words, the bane of all creatures in the core. The fusion of the ultimate two types of water was not something that the poisonous arrows could affect. At most, it would just turn the water around them into poisonous water.
It was also at this moment that Ah Jin, who had been floating beside the Sacred Fire Dragon, moved. She seemed to have exploded with a golden bolt of lightning the moment she moved. Even Ji Dong was unable to see her movements clearly with his eyes. Only with his Saint Tier soul energy could he just barely capture her movements.
Ah Jin's timing could be described as perfect. With the soul probing that was connected to Ji Dong, she had already moved the moment the Chaotic Demonic Smoke Pufferfish appeared.
With the descent of the rain, the volcanic smoke was completely suppressed. The Chaotic Demonic Smoke Pufferfish's huge body could no longer be hidden, revealing its slightly greyish, purplish-red body.
The Chaotic Demonic Smoke Pufferfish was over thirty meters long. In Ji Dong's eyes, its huge body seemed like a miniature submarine. Its mouth was extremely protruding, one and a half meters in length. It was extremely sharp, and it was a deep purple colour. It was possible to tell with a single glance that it contained poison, not to mention the fact that it could directly inject the poison into the opponent's body.
Without the envelopment of the smoke, it seemed rather flustered. Under the suppression from the fusion of Ji Dong and Chen Sixuan, its soul attacks had been completely crippled. It even had to endure the pain from the suppression. Even as a Class 10 Magical Beast, it still felt extremely uneasy.
Ah Jin's lightning-fast figure descended at this moment. At this moment, Ah Jin's entire body seemed to be made of gold. With a twist of his body, he arrived above the Demonic Smoke Pufferfish and stabbed his right arm into its sturdy body.
To everyone's surprise, at this moment, Ah Jin's entire right arm had turned into a long sword. Her body and sword merged into one and stabbed out. Even the air let out an ear-piercing tearing sound as it was parried from both sides of her body. It was as if her attack had even split the sky apart.
The Demonic Smoke Pufferfish felt a strong sense of danger. Its body, which was originally 30 meters long, suddenly shrank by half, causing Ah Jin's attack to slow down in the air before it landed on its body.
All the Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples could tell how powerful Ah Jin's attack was. However, when Ah Jin's sword stabbed out, it only managed to stab around half a meter into the Demonic Smoke Pufferfish's body. Immediately afterwards, the Demonic Smoke Pufferfish's body swelled up once again. Not only did the powerful rebound force knock Ah Jin's sword out, it even sent her flying. Only a white mark was left on the Demonic Smoke Pufferfish's swollen body. Ah Jin's previous attack had actually failed to stab into its body.
It had to be mentioned that Ah Jin's mana had already reached rank 89, yet she was still unable to stab in under such circumstances. This showed just how tough the Demonic Smoke Pufferfish's defense was. It truly was worthy of being a Class 10 Magical Beast.
The Demonic Smoke Pufferfish seemed to be infuriated. Seeing that Ah Jin had been knocked away, its fat body swayed in the air. Its small tail and fat body suddenly sped up, charging towards Ah Jin. Its long mouth even shone with a layer of purplish-black light.
Due to the suppression of Ji Dong and Chen Sixuan's souls, as well as the rain of demonic energy from the Saints of Duangshui, the Demonic Smoke Pufferfish's other two main attacks had been restricted. All it could do now was charge forward at full speed.
The reality proved that no Class 10 Magical Beast could be underestimated. The Disorienting Demonic Smoke Pufferfish still erupted with its valiant side despite being suppressed so much. When it charged towards Ah Jin, everyone believed that Ah Jin definitely had the time to dodge with his cultivation. However, in the next moment, a gas suddenly sprayed out from behind the Disorienting Demonic Smoke Pufferfish. Its speed increased once again, almost doubling. It arrived before Ah Jin in the blink of an eye.
The speed of the Demonic Smoke Pufferfish's acceleration was so fast that even Ji Dong's Spiritual Detection was a step too late. One could imagine how fast it was. Its Qi attribute could not only be used to attack, but it could also be used as a boost for its body. Even if the Demonic Smoke Pufferfish reached the tenth grade, it would still be able to fly by relying on the Qi in its body. However, the tenth grade Demonic Smoke Pufferfish in front of him could not only fly by itself, but it could also use the Qi attribute to accelerate itself.
This was just too sudden, so much so that even Ah Jin was surprised. What shocked the Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples was Ah Jin's reaction. Ah Jin did not attempt to dodge the Demonic Smoke Pufferfish's speed of acceleration and its huge body. Instead, she used the most direct method to react.
She turned around and threw a punch. That was Ah Jin's reaction. She actually wanted to use force against force and forcefully take on the Demonic Smoke Pufferfish's sharp beak.
The Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples basically became nervous at that moment. This was not a normal collision. Was the full-powered attack of a Class 10 Magical Beast that easy to receive? Ah Jin wanted to compete with the Demonic Smoke Pufferfish in terms of toughness!
A layer of deep golden light instantly burst forth from Ajin's body. The dazzling golden light was accompanied by a layer of crystal-clear luster. Even though the sky was covered in dark clouds and the sky was raining heavily, it still shone brightly. Her right fist was the core of the light, and her fist was covered in a layer of milky-white light.
"Chaotic Metal." The Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples all murmured.
Boom …
A collision akin to Mars colliding with Earth appeared. In the sky, a ring of distorted, invisible force immediately spread out, forcefully blocking the downpour and quickly spreading outwards.
A strange scene appeared in the sky. Ah Jin continued to float in the air, as if nothing had happened. The Demonic Smoke Pufferfish in front of her seemed to freeze as well, but its 1.5-meter-long beak stopped in front of Ah Jin's fist, twisted like a fried dough twist.
Everyone was shocked. Even Ji Dong and Chen Sixuan were no exception. When Ah Jin used the Chaotic Metal, the Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples understood that she would have no problems protecting herself. However, no one had expected the outcome to be like this. The Demonic Smoke Pufferfish's attack, which had accelerated so much, actually came to a screeching halt as if it had collided with an insurmountable wall. Even its sharp beak had twisted.
As one of the three main attacks of a Class 10 Magical Beast, one could imagine how tough its beak was. However, the truth was right before their eyes. Its beak had been destroyed just like that.
After a brief moment of shock, Ji Dong's gaze returned to normal. He mumbled to himself, "The power of dragons."
Chen Sixuan, who was standing behind Ji Dong, also came to a realization when she heard him say those words.
Ah Jin was no longer the Ah Jin of the past. She was now completely half-human and half-dragon. Without a doubt, dragons stood at the top of the pyramid of magical beasts in this world. The strength and toughness of a dragon's body could not be said to be the strongest magical beast, but they were close. After Ah Jin's dragon bloodline had awakened, her greatest improvement was not in her mana, but in her body. When he saw Ah Jin destroy the Demonic Smoke Pufferfish's beak with a single punch, Ji Dong understood. The current Ah Jin was definitely not weaker than him in terms of physical strength. The Earth Dragon Ancestor was able to help an outsider like him improve his body to a level close to the Saint tier. How could he be stingy with his own daughter? Ah Jin's body had definitely entered the Saint tier. Wasn't the Demonic Smoke Pufferfish asking for trouble by competing with her in terms of physical strength?
Even the Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples had not expected such an outcome, much less the Demonic Smoke Pufferfish. It had crashed into a metal plate, and had even twisted its sharp beak. The pain was inexplicable. What was even more terrifying was that the powerful force of Ah Jin's punch had shaken its brain to the point of dizziness. It could not even feel the pain, and only felt as if there were countless stars orbiting around it in the sky.
A circle of golden light expanded from Ah Jin's wrist, and instantly drifted out from where she had collided with the Demonic Smoke Pufferfish. The golden ring of light had already expanded to a diameter of five meters in the blink of an eye, trapping the Demonic Smoke Pufferfish within.
In the next moment, it tightened.
Relying on its powerful defense, the Bewildering Demon Smoke Pufferfish, which had just woken up from its stunned state, immediately felt an intense pain coming from two parts of its body at the same time. One was naturally its nose, while the other came from its body.
Ah Jin did not even look at it. She lifted her right leg at the speed of lightning and made a downward chopping motion, fully displaying her body's incredible flexibility. Her leg landed on the Demonic Smoke Pufferfish's twisted beak, and sent its massive body flying towards the crater of Mount Almans.
What was that golden hoop? It was the metal element divine weapon that Ah Jin had obtained from skull-faced Wang Xiaolei. It was also one of the three divine weapons owned by the Foolish Rich Merchant Guild. Ah Jin did not care what the golden hoop had been called in the past. She named it the Golden Hoop of Annihilation. This Golden Hoop of Annihilation was also the fifth divine weapon of the Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples, after the Hell Thunder Axe, the Fire God's Sword, the Earth Goddess' Staff, and the Armor of Eternity.
The Golden Ring of Annihilation was a weapon, and it had two functions, one for attack and one for defense. Back then, the skull-faced Wang Xiaolei had used it to defend against Ah Jin, and at this moment, Ah Jin was using it to attack. Once the Golden Ring of Annihilation caught someone, it would shrink and cut at full force. Unless the opponent also had a divine artifact for defense or had a body that was as strong as a god, there would only be one result …
With a soft poof, countless wisps of smoke scattered in the air. The Demonic Smoke Pufferfish's tough body was split into two in the air after Ah Jin's kick landed on it. The thick poisonous smoke accumulated in its body naturally scattered as well. Fortunately, the Heavenly Stem Holy Disciple had conjured a downpour, preventing the poisonous smoke from spreading and causing great destruction.
The sparkling golden light floated up and wrapped around Ajin's right wrist once again. With a twist of her slender body, she had already returned to the Sacred Evolution Fire Dragon's side. Her expression was calm, as if she had just done something very simple. After all, what she had just killed was a real Class 10 Magical Beast, and a mutated one at that!
Ah Jin saw that Hyōhime had moved and said, "I should be able to kill it with the Widowmaker, but it'll take longer, so I used the Golden Hoop of Annihilation."
Ji Dong smiled and nodded. "Looks like I underestimated you. I might not be able to defeat you now." Ah Jin snorted and said, "If I didn't use the Sacred Flame Dragon, I would have a sixty percent chance of defeating you.
Ajin snorted and said, "Without the Sacred Evolution Fire Dragon, I have a sixty percent chance of defeating you. After all, my demonic energy is seven ranks higher than yours, and I have the body of human and dragon as one. Even though you've been soaked in my father's blood, you're still not as powerful as my direct Dragon Emperor bloodline. However, if I add the Sacred Evolution Fire Dragon to the mix, I have no chance of defeating you at all. Among the five elements, the Sacred Evolution Fire Dragon is Dazzling Gold. Moreover, you have two ultimate flames. The Sacred Evolution Fire Dragon doesn't have a Divine Weapon or a powerful soul like yours, but it can be said to be another you.
Ji Dong laughed. "Do you really want to defeat me?"
Ah Jin looked at him, then at Chen Sixuan, who was behind him. He shook his head silently, but did not speak again.
The Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples had already surrounded them. The strength that Ah Jin had just displayed made them gasp in amazement. Even Fury had a look of admiration in his eyes. He was now certain that Ah Jin was without a doubt the strongest among his companions after Ji Dong. His cultivation had indeed surpassed his own.
"The guardian magical beast has been killed. Let's go down and take a look. We'll also look for the entrance to the core world." Ji Dong called out to his companions. The Sacred Flame Dragon had already sped up and descended.
Lan Baoer retracted her magical power. Now, Du Ming was the only one controlling the rain to suppress the smoke that was spewing out of the crater. Everyone landed near the crater on their mounts. Ji Dong and Chen Sixuan jumped off the Sacred Flame Dragon's back. Maotai and Wuliangye were telepathically linked to Ji Dong. With a flash, they found the corpse of the Indiscriminate Demon Smoke Dolphin and threw it in front of everyone. Just as Chen Sixuan had said, this powerful tenth rank magical beast was actually only four meters long.
