The black rain of swords indiscriminately covered the entire surface of the vast lake. Almost every few dozen meters, a black light would sink into the bright red magma.
Since it was an attack with such a large area, the power of each sword was limited. Luo Li did not think that she could kill the Molten Dragon with that attack. She only created a huge commotion to lure the black dragon out.
At the bottom of the lava lake, a gigantic black dragon was lying on the ground, pretending to be asleep. In reality, it was not sleeping. It was absorbing the energy of the molten crystals and lying on the ground was the most comfortable position.
Suddenly, the sound of water flowing could be heard. Before the black dragon could react, it felt an intense pain on its tail. It turned its head to look at its tail. A black sword was pierced into its tail and the blade was almost halfway into its tail.
Just at this moment, another sword shot out, piercing less than a meter below the black dragon's left eye. Just a little more and the black dragon would have become a one-eyed dragon.
"Roar!"
The black dragon was furious that it was attacked twice for no reason. As one of the three overlords in this world, it had been a long time since anyone dared to challenge its authority.
Hearing the roar coming from the bottom of the lake, Luo Li smirked. "It's really effective."
As soon as the roar was heard, there was a huge wave on the surface of the lava lake. A gigantic monster broke out of the lake.
Luo Li tilted her head slightly and sized up the black and swarthy giant creature.
The Molten Dragon looked like a gigantic crocodile with wings. However, its abdomen was shorter than its body and its buttocks were fatter. On its back, it did not have the dense scales of a dragonkin. Instead, it had a layer of carapace on the back of a crocodile. It looked bumpy like hard tumors.
"It's really ugly …" Luo Li commented as she looked at the Molten Dragon. Soon, she recalled something and licked her lips. "But a Food Hunter once said that the uglier something is, the better it tastes."
While Luo Li was looking at the Molten Dragon, it was also looking at her.
Luo Li's size confused it. It was the first time it had seen such a small human. However, the attack just now had shocked it. Those two swords had easily broken through its defense.
Could it be that humans were more powerful the smaller they were?
Just when the Molten Dragon was confused, it heard Luo Li talking to herself. It was enraged again.
"Human brat, are you deliberately angering me?" This was the first time it had heard someone call it ugly, and it couldn't bear it.
On the other side, Luo Li's expression darkened. "Brat …"
This form of address made her extremely unhappy.
The Molten Dragon seemed to have noticed Luo Li's abnormal condition. It opened its mouth and spat out flames that engulfed Luo Li instantly.
The Molten Dragon was not a dragonkin. Naturally, it did not spit dragon flames. Instead, it spat molten core which was as hot as the core of a planet.
The lava gushed out like a waterfall, covering the entire space where Luo Li had been standing.
The Molten Dragon was sure that Luo Li would not be able to dodge its attack. Even if Luo Li did not die from the high temperature, she would be severely injured.
"Indeed, a sky dragon is just a sky dragon. You're nothing compared to a real dragonkin." A person walked out of the flames.
Luo Li's body was unharmed. Not only was she unharmed, but her clothes were not affected by the high temperature at all. She smirked as she looked at the Molten Dragon that was shocked. "I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you. When I leveled up to holy fire-level, the Life Fire monster that I killed was a dragonkin. Although it was just a beginner-level dragonkin, it was much more powerful than you. In a battle of the same level, someone like you would be killed by that fellow in ten seconds at most. I'm more powerful than it. I only need one move to kill you … "
Luo Li pointed her finger at the Molten Dragon.
At that moment, the Molten Dragon instinctively felt that it was in danger. This instinct had saved its life countless times. Without hesitation, it chose to trust its instinct.
Its wings shook violently, and its body violently retreated. After retreating for a certain distance, its body suddenly sank and drilled into the magma lake.
"It's too late to escape now!" Luo Li pointed her finger at the direction where the black dragon was falling.
A black glow shot out from her fingertip. The black glow that was as thick as a thumb disappeared as soon as it left her fingertip. When it reappeared, it was already next to the black dragon's head. It pierced through the dragon's head and came out from the other side like a meteorite falling into the lava lake, creating waves that were hundreds of meters high.
The black dragon fell into the lake and its gigantic carcass floated up to the surface.
Just when Luo Li was about to put the carcass away, she noticed that half of its tail was broken.
"Did it escape?!" Luo Li squinted her eyes.
After putting the carcass away, Luo Li returned to the Blazing Alligator on the shore. The alligator was trembling. Although it did not see the entire process of how Lin Li killed the black dragon, it was able to sense everything that had happened. Knowing that Lin Li had killed the Molten Dragon in one hit, it lost the will to fight back.
"Apart from the molten crystal, what else is there at the bottom of the lake?" Luo Li asked the Blazing Alligator.
"There's a natural tunnel at the bottom of the lake that leads to a huge lava river," the Blazing Alligator answered immediately. The Blazing Crocodile quickly replied. Although it did not know why Luo Li asked this question, it still answered her honestly and did not dare to hide anything.
"No wonder …" Luo Li immediately understood why the Blazing Alligator would escape into the lava lake that seemed to have no way out.
"Bring me to where the molten crystal is. Don't play any tricks!" Luo Li snapped her fingers, and the black sword that pinned the Blazing Alligator's tail slowly dissipated. It turned into a black mist and entered the alligator's body through the wound.
The Blazing Alligator hesitated. It was actually considering if it should escape. However, it gave up on the idea as the human was too scary. After some hesitation, it decided to lead the way.
Luo Li followed the Blazing Alligator into the lava lake. Her body seemed to be covered by an invisible layer of energy, completely separating her from the lava.
The spiritual lava could usually penetrate one's Life Power, but it did not seem to affect Luo Li at all.
After a few minutes, Luo Li followed the Blazing Alligator to the bottom of the lake.
Luo Li's eyes lit up when she saw the giant golden crystal at the bottom of the lake. It was almost two meters in diameter. However, she soon thought of a problem. She could not bring it along with her.
Although the molten crystal was a treasure, it could not be cut. Once it was broken, it would explode violently and a large amount of energy would be lost. The bottom half of the molten crystal was buried in the ground. That was why the Molten Dragon had to go to the bottom of the lake whenever it wanted to train.
"That little black dragon is so stupid. Didn't it know how to dig the ground around it?" Luo Li was speechless. She turned around and ordered the Blazing Alligator next to her, "Dig the ground around it. You'll be free after I take the molten crystal away."
"I don't know what the ground around it is made of. It's very hard and I can't dig it. If it could be dug out, the black dragon would have taken it away. "The Blazing Alligator shook its head.
Luo Li did not believe it. She went to the side of the crystal, bent down and knocked on the ground. She then extended a black blade from her finger and stabbed it into the ground. However, it could not penetrate the ground.
"Eh … That's weird!" Luo Li looked around as she retreated to the sky. The black dragon had dug out the ground within a radius of 10 kilometers, leaving only a flat black layer of soil. "Did you guys dig out this flat layer of soil?"
"Yes, Master Black Dragon asked us to dig it. However, the black layer of soil was getting bigger and bigger, so Master Black Dragon gave up." The Blazing Alligator nodded.
"I know. Since we can't take it away, let's keep it. " Luo Li had already made up her mind. After the assessment, she would bring people to drain the lava in the lake and see if she could dig the thing out.
"You can go back to your freedom now." Luo Li waved her hand and the black energy around the Blazing Alligator's wound dissipated into the spiritual lava.
