But the Dragon Emperor didn't look like he was in pain. Instead, he looked happy. He didn't feel like he was being skinned, but enjoying a very comfortable process. Just like that, Du Feng watched helplessly as all the scales on his body shattered and flew away. The skin inside was exposed, like a fish that had been stripped of its scales.
Then, where the scales fell off and were still bleeding, new scales began to grow. The new scales were very small at first, like buds. But it was obvious that they were no longer grayish green, but green. Furthermore, as the scales grew larger, the cyan color became darker and darker, becoming a deep cyan.
Seeing this, Du Feng understood that the Dragon Emperor was being reborn. No wonder he wasn't afraid at all, and even looked like he was enjoying it.
Tsk, tsk, tsk … Brother Long, you've earned a lot this time. You didn't come to the Coiling Dragon Boundary in vain. No wonder he was chosen as the Dragon Emperor by all the Dragons when he was in the Lower Bound. It seemed like it made sense. The transformation of the dragon scales was just a superficial thing. Du Feng watched as the Dragon Emperor's Cultivation went up. From the fourth level of the Divine Emperor Realm to the fifth, the sixth … to the peak of the ninth level in one go. It was like he was being enlightened.
Enlightenment needed to be much higher than the Cultivation of the person involved. To enlighten a Divine Emperor, he had to be at least a half-saint. And even a half-saint couldn't guarantee that his foundation would be stable after the enlightenment. Otherwise, Dragon Star's father would have already enlightened him, and he wouldn't have to spend so much effort on cultivation.
But the Dragon Emperor's enlightenment didn't have the problem of instability. Because this was the Coiling Dragon Boundary, and the whole environment made him.
Seeing the Dragon Emperor's Cultivation going up, Du Feng was secretly happy for him. This was the best. With the Dragon Emperor's Cultivation going up, he could go to the back mountain with him to kill the extraterrestrial demons. Working with an old friend like the Dragon Emperor, who knew him inside out, was much more reassuring than teaming up with strangers.
Just as Du Feng was thinking about this, he sensed that something was amiss. Because the surroundings were getting colder and colder, the bright light of the day had suddenly dimmed. Because of the Black Pine Forest, the lighting was not very good. At this moment, there was a lot of black gas emerging from the ground, making it even darker.
Oh no, the Dragon Emperor is at the critical moment of his breakthrough. Du Feng expanded his Spiritual Sense and observed his surroundings. He discovered that he had already been surrounded by Extraterrestrial Demons, and there were over a hundred of them. Perhaps it was because when the Dragon Emperor's scales fell, his blood had dripped down, and his aura had attracted the surrounding Extraterrestrial Demons. It was also possible that this kind of aura had attracted all the Extraterrestrial Demons in the cave.
One had to know that Draconis's team had only encountered 20 Extraterrestrial Demons previously. However, Du Feng and the Dragon Emperor had encountered more than a hundred of them. Moreover, the Dragon Emperor was at the critical point of his breakthrough, so he couldn't move at all. His body was in the form of a dragon, and his large size meant that the area of attack would be large.
It was a very difficult task for Du Feng to protect him. The only thing to be thankful for was that these Extraterrestrial Demons were not mature yet. They were a bunch of cubs, and they might have just appeared last night. After a night of growth, they were only slightly bigger than cubs, about the height of a ten-year-old child.
Some of these small Extraterrestrial Demons were empty-handed, and they stuck out their sharp black tongues to lick their claws. Some were like humans, holding a short spear in their hands. This kind of short spear was not a forged weapon, but something they were born with, growing out of their hands.
They were born with weapons, which was quite similar to Little Demons and Little Rakshasa. Du Feng had dealt with Little Demons and Little Rakshasa, so he had some experience in dealing with these small Extraterrestrial Demons.
He didn't wait for them to approach, pulling out the Dragon Riding Sword and taking the initiative to attack. An arc-shaped Sword Qi slashed out, directly sweeping the area. This sword felt very heavy, as if he was carrying a big mountain. Moreover, his movement was not fast, but rather looked rather slow.
This was Du Feng's new understanding of the sword technique, which was to make light seem heavy. The Dragon Riding Sword, which was supposed to be very light, was used by him as if he was carrying three big mountains. When this sword was slashed out, there was nothing special at first.
A group of Extraterrestrial Demons were charging forward crazily, like a group of mad dogs that had seen food. They were just in time to rush up, and they could skin the Dragon Emperor, who was unable to move, alive. It was such a big dragon, and its scales were not fully covered. It was really delicious to eat.
Just as they were about to pounce in front of the Dragon Emperor, a wind suddenly blew. Many things that looked like ice suddenly extended from the ground, but they were actually a large number of sword gleams condensed together. These sword gleams were like roadblocks, suddenly appearing in front of them. The charging Extraterrestrial Demons were caught off guard, and directly collided with them.
Pfft … Pfft …
The sword gleams were quite sharp. When the Extraterrestrial Demons collided with them, their intestines were directly cut open, and black mucus flowed all over the ground. Just this charge alone had killed or injured nearly half of them. The ones in front had been stabbed to death, and the ones in the back had finally stopped.
These things were not very intelligent, but they were not completely stupid. Seeing that their companions were dead, they did not dare to continue charging like this. They changed their tactics, picked up the short spears in their hands, and threw them at the Dragon Emperor. This move was also quite vicious. The Dragon Emperor could not move at this time. If they hit him, he would become a beehive of holes.
Wow, they were really difficult to deal with.
Du Feng had a powerful offensive sword technique, but he did not have a good defensive skill. If he used his sword to kill the Extraterrestrial Demons again, he could indeed kill a large number of them. But at the same time, some of the short spears would stab into the Dragon Emperor's body. Even if they could not stab him to death, they would interrupt his Cultivation, causing him to fail in his breakthrough or even Qi Deviation.
This would not do. Du Feng did not withdraw the sword in his right hand, but directly swung his left arm back. He immediately used the newly learned Triad Palm Technique. He saw his left hand throw out a red and blue energy, lashing in the air like a long whip.
Pa, pa, pa …
After a few consecutive lashes, all the short spears thrown over were smashed to pieces. He had just finished this batch and wanted to deal with the group of Extraterrestrial Demons. He did not expect that these little beasts would immediately make another batch of short spears. They could automatically condense this kind of short black hair in their palms and continue to throw them at the Dragon Emperor.
Who said that the Extraterrestrial Demons were stupid? It seemed that they were not stupid at all. Knowing that they could not hurt Du Feng, they all attacked the Dragon Emperor. Because they found that as long as they attacked the Dragon Emperor, Du Feng would be restrained. In this way, they would have a chance to attack again.
"Little beasts, you are courting death!"
If it were someone else, they might really be restrained at this moment, but this problem did not exist for Du Feng.
