"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle …"
For a moment, sparks flew all over the little lizard's body. It wasn't blasted into pieces, but a strange phenomenon occurred. Its body began to swell, looking like an inflated balloon that was about to explode. Interesting, could it be that the little lizard would be blown up by the Death Ray? Du Feng really wanted to see what it would look like after it was blown up.
The little lizard's body continued to grow, but it didn't explode. Du Feng realized that something was wrong and quickly stopped. Fortunately, he didn't go all out with the Death Ray and only consumed a bit of True Essence. Otherwise, he might not have been able to keep it.
"Roar …"
The little lizard became the size of a domestic dog after being illuminated by the Death Ray. It raised its neck and let out a roar that was even more terrifying than a giant beast, causing the surrounding trees to tremble and leaves to fall one after another.
Damn, it's too much. Now, Du Feng understood why the little lizard liked to attack people's foreheads. It wanted to dig out its third eye and eat it to replenish its energy. Now that the little lizard was illuminated by the Death Ray, its body became many times bigger and stronger. It turned around and rushed toward Du Feng.
Curiosity really killed people. Du Feng was just playing around to see what effect it would have. He didn't expect to cause trouble and raise the little lizard. It had only been illuminated for a while, and it had become so many times bigger. If it continued, it would become an ancient giant beast.
"Earth Fire Burning Heaven!"
"Heaven Fire Punishment!"
"Fire Dragon Slash!"
Fortunately, Du Feng knew the weakness of the lizard's fear of fire, so he used the three moves consecutively. However, after becoming bigger, the lizard's resistance to fire had also increased. After dodging the Fire Dragon Slash, it stepped on the Earth Fire and carried the falling meteorite. It actually continued to rush toward Du Feng.
"Fire Net Widening!"
"Fire Tornado!"
This time, it was really big trouble. Du Feng retreated while activating his combat skills. He found a pattern. After the lizard's body was burned by the flames, it began to slowly shrink back. It seemed that the energy given by the Death Ray was being consumed by the flames.
The fire net enveloped the lizard and slowed it down. At this moment, Huo Long's tail whipped over. It struck the lizard's back and smashed it into the ground. It just so happened that a new Earth Fire was burning up at this moment. That feeling was truly refreshing.
This lizard was stronger than the previous one, probably because it was replenished by the Death Ray. Instead of being burned to death, it struggled to pull its body out of the ground. He moved his limbs, intending to continue attacking Du Feng.
"What kind of grudge is this?"
Du Feng had no choice but to use another fire tornado to smash it into the ground. Then, he released the Earth Fire and burned it fiercely. Only when it was burned into a pool of molten iron did it stop. This kind of strange lizard had to be burned until it melted before it could be killed. Otherwise, its steel body would always want to fight.
"Return!"
After looking at the pool of molten iron, Du Feng put it into the small world of his necklace. The old way was to throw it into the lake to cool it down. When he fished it out, it was a slightly larger metal lizard. Because the Death Ray's buff was removed, it was only slightly larger than the previous one.
Du Feng didn't know what this strange thing could be used for, so he kept it for now. After rushing for a while, he was afraid that he would get lost, so he flew to the top of a tree to observe the terrain. After confirming the direction, he continued to sneak towards the location of the bear tribe in his memory.
Along the way, he encountered a few more small lizards, all of which were burned into molten iron and stored. It was like collecting emblems, which was quite fun. Perhaps because there were too many of these little fellows, the other demonic beasts avoided them. He didn't know if these small lizards were considered a new species on the Western Continent, but he felt that their appearance had occupied a large number of the other demonic beasts' resources.
If this continued, most of the demonic beasts on the Western Continent would be driven out.
Du Feng's concerns weren't unreasonable, because there had to be a balance between all species. This small lizard looked inconspicuous, but its combat strength was very strong. Even ordinary Class 7 demonic beasts couldn't beat it. Even if there were demonic beasts that could beat it, they wouldn't be able to withstand such a large number.
In fact, he still didn't know that these small lizards weren't native to the Western Continent, but were artificially cultivated. This was the only way to drive away all the demonic beasts and demonic cultivators that lived here. They could choose to go to the Northern Continent, they could choose to die, and they could even choose to migrate to the Southern Continent en masse, but they couldn't continue to stay on the Western Continent.
This was because the Western Continent's poison cultivators had reached an agreement with the Life League's Shangguan Alliance Leader to clear out the territories occupied by demonic beasts and demonic cultivators, leaving a portion for the Life League to develop. This way, the poison cultivators could expand their territory without the need for a single soldier, and the Life League could also serve the poison cultivators on the periphery. This woman, Shangguan Yun, was really ambitious. After her plan to invade the Southern Continent failed, she actually set her sights on the Western Continent.
She had a cooperative relationship with the Western Continent's poison cultivators, so it was impossible for her to snatch their territory. However, the Western Continent's poison cultivators only occupied less than a tenth of the Western Continent's territory. The remaining ninety percent was occupied by demonic beasts and demonic cultivator tribes.
Thus, Shangguan Yun came up with this rotten idea of using the mutated small lizards to breed new species. After driving away all the weak demonic beasts, the remaining strong demonic beasts wouldn't have anything to eat. Even if they were stronger than the small lizards, eating a small lizard wouldn't fill their stomachs. Moreover, the small lizards' bodies seemed to have a metallic texture, so they weren't tasty at all.
Shangguan Yun was indeed a ruthless woman, but one had to admit that she was very smart. She managed to come up with such a complicated solution. If she was allowed to grow, she might one day become an empress, or even someone who surpassed the Four Emperors.
Du Feng didn't know that this was Shangguan Yun's plan. He just thought that the small lizards were particularly fun, so he caught a few more and planned to bring them back to the Seven Basaltic Mansions to study. He had been rushing for the past few days, and the chief had arrived near the Bear Tribe.
Last night, the west wind had withered the green trees. Alone on a tall building, he gazed at the end of the world.
Du Feng stood at a high place, looking at the ruined Bear Tribe from afar. The outer fences were crooked, and weeds had already grown in the tribe. He thought of the time when he pretended to be the Dragons Prince and spent time with the demonic cultivators here. His heart was filled with emotions, and he didn't know where to start.
