Chapter 2450 The ungrateful thing
It has six arms, so it can easily unleash a six-shot barrage. The waters of the Thunder Pool can also provide it with an endless supply of weapons.
In just a breath and a half, it hurled thirty-six lightning arrows at He Lingchuan, almost completely blocking all his escape routes.
Before He Lingchuan could get up, he had to summon his large shield to block the lightning arrows, but a small gust of cold wind came from behind.
The crouching beast on the Clang Dragon Armor immediately came to life, lunging backward and instantly engaging the enemy in a fierce struggle.
But something was still stuck on He Lingchuan's shoulder. The Blood Demon Cloak billowed high and failed to completely block it!
For He Lingchuan, this was like being stung by a wasp, the pain burning intensely.
Turning my head, I saw two unusually thick stone scorpions.
However, the upper bodies of these two scorpions were humanoid, and their two large stone claws resembled crabs, blocking the attack of the crouching beast.
Its tail is curved and thin, with a sharp hook attached.
Needless to say, it was this tail hook that pierced through the cloak and armor defenses and embedded itself in He Lingchuan's back.
Although the wound wasn't deep, the poison was potent. Even with his Yuan energy protecting him, He Lingchuan found his left arm numb and almost unable to lift it.
At this moment, Shangguan Biao's twin swords attacked again, and Shi Tou Yin Hui also took advantage of the situation to shoot him with seven or eight arrows. Each arrow was shot at a tricky angle, intended to cut off his way and make him flustered and unable to save himself.
In this situation, He Lingchuan had no chance to apply medicine to himself, and could only endure the numbness in his left hand as he threw something behind him:
"Next, help me remove the poison!"
What he threw out was a poison sac.
The venom sac of the burrowing spider queen is used to absorb various deadly poisons.
The blood demon behind him conjured a hand, took the poison sac, pressed it onto the wound, and drew out the poison.
For this, it also endured two treacherous lightning bolts, hissing and crackling from the shock, and wincing in pain.
Within the Thunder Pool, the Earth Mother brewed for a few breaths, then suddenly snapped a stone chain and swung it fiercely at the Yin Serpent!
Yin Hui was coordinating with its main body to fire at He Lingchuan when it sensed a gust of wind behind its head and tried to jump underground. However, the Earth Mother swung her chain at an absurdly fast speed, and Yin Hui was struck in the lower back by the stone chain as soon as it bent down.
With a snap, it was smashed to pieces, sending rubble flying everywhere.
Mother Earth also let out a furious roar, in pain!
The injuries Shangguan Biao sustained must be compensated by Shi Xin. This time, it was as if the Earth Mother herself had slashed herself, injuring herself.
But it at least gave He Lingchuan a temporary reprieve, allowing him to free his hands in the fierce battle. He then flicked his wrist backward and fired two hidden arrows, hitting a stone scorpion at close range.
The stone scorpion burst open on the spot.
Mother Earth rolled her eyes, and more stone dust fell from her body.
While fighting, He Lingchuan said to it, "Take care of the sand table, don't worry about me!"
The Earth Mother was still manually controlling the changes in the terrain on the sand table, trying to move the ordinary secret realm of Yujing City to the edge of Panlong Ancient City, but Shangguan Biao naturally wouldn't allow it.
The two rulers of Yujing City were exerting their powers, competing with each other. The entire city shook as if a magnitude 12 earthquake had struck, with buildings collapsing one after another and streets and alleys breaking apart one after another.
Even the stones on Mother Earth's body were falling off in a flurry, making her look quite disheveled.
For He Lingchuan, the things the Earth Mother was doing were far more important than her direct participation in the battle. Because she was accomplishing one of He Lingchuan's most crucial objectives in infiltrating Jade Capital City—providing energy for the new Panlong Secret Realm!
The new secret realm built with the Dayan Heavenly Pearl as its foundation ultimately lacked sufficient energy, and could not be completed on schedule relying solely on its own reserves.
He Lingchuan set his sights on Yujing City, which contains dozens of secret realms. If he could capture them in the new Panlong Secret Realm, it should be able to support his growth.
Currently, this goal is being achieved step by step with the help of Mother Earth.
Dong Rui, also from afar, asked him, "How's the new secret realm going?"
He Lingchuan only said two words:
"not enough!"
The Panlong Secret Realm is becoming more and more perfect and powerful, but it needs more energy!
During the fierce battle, Shangguan Biao didn't stop talking either, saying to the Earth Mother, "Fool, as long as you go back to sleep, all these entanglements and disputes have nothing to do with you!"
"You thief, you'll never steal my power again!" Mother Earth struggled to sit up. "Your secret realms are all powered by me. Just wait, I'm going to destroy them all!"
"Your control over your own power is even worse than mine!" Shangguan Biao sneered. "You were originally just a second-rate spirit beast. It was I who developed your talent to its fullest potential, it was I who made you unprecedentedly powerful, and it was I who made the name 'Earth Mother' resound throughout the world! Mount Ling can't do anything to you, and even the Heavenly Demons have to kneel before you! That's all because of me!"
"If it were just you on your own, you'd still be a watchdog in Changfeng Valley, scavenging for scraps they don't want. Before I took over, even those lowly servants from Du Zhishan looked down on you and dared to cut your rations! Heh heh, without me, how could you have earned your current status?" Shangguan Biao's voice grew louder and louder as he cursed, "You ungrateful wretch!"
Snap, snap, snap——
Before Mother Earth could retort, He Lingchuan took the opportunity to clap twice.
"You've usurped my place and still have the audacity to boast about your achievements. I've personally killed thousands of villains, and your shamelessness is truly among the top five."
"You call me a villain, but what good are you yourself?" Shangguan Biao sneered. "Who would lie and claim to be a 'reincarnated dragon god' to steal faith and defraud billions of lives? The Nine Nether Emperor? Bah! I think you're the Emperor of Lies!"
“If I am a villain, then this fellow is a fraud!” He turned to the Earth Mother and said, “You’ve only exchanged a few blows with him, and you’ve already destroyed Jade Capital City for him! Every bullet he stabbed into me caused real damage to you, and did he ever stop?”
“No matter how bad he is, he’s not as bad as you,” the Earth Mother retorted, pushing the next secret realm to the edge of Panlong Ancient City. “Humans once said, ‘When faced with two evils, choose the lesser!’ Also, I will never sign a contract with you humans again. Whether it’s you or him, you can give up on that idea!”
It's not stupid; why would these people help it?
Having spent so long in Changfeng Valley, even a stonehead like it had been influenced by what it saw and heard. The first thing it learned was that everyone in the world is driven by profit, and if these people had nothing to gain, why would they be enemies with Shangguan Biao, and why would they be standing here now?
It spoke directly, but He Lingchuan nodded: "Don't worry, I won't force you. As long as you work with us to get rid of Shangguan Biao, you will regain your freedom!"
Having spent so much time by his side, the Blood Demon had developed a tacit understanding and stepped in to help: "The tree may wish to be still, but the wind will not cease. Even if you, Mother Earth, regain your freedom, the Heavenly Demon will still be eyeing you covetously. You will not enjoy peace!"
"Why?" Mother Earth asked indignantly. Was it so difficult for her to have a little peace and tranquility?
