Martial Arrogance Dragon Soul-Chapter 59 Self-Destruct Essence Core

The moment that hazy white light dissipated, an extremely rich spiritual energy also leaked out.

Qin Qing and Gong Yanghe exchanged glances, excitement shimmering in their eyes.

"Let’s go!"

Gong Yanghe charged ahead, leading the way.

The two arrived at the entrance of the cave.

In addition to the extremely rich spiritual energy that hit them in the face, there was also an intense coldness.

Peering through the entrance, one could see a completely different scene inside, where everything was covered in ice, a vast expanse of white, as if it were a world formed from solid ice.

"The treasure is in there?"

Gong Yanghe rubbed his hands together excitedly.

He drew his knife and slashed down.

"Clang!"

Where there had been only a small hole, Gong Yanghe’s slash instantly expanded it tenfold, allowing for easy entry and exit.

But just then, the White Flood Dragon, which had been fighting the purple-black giant wolf in the deep abyss, suddenly stopped.

This White Flood Dragon turned its head sharply, its eyes like candle flames suddenly locking onto Qin Qing and Gong Yanghe.

"Sizzle!"

The White Flood Dragon became furious, its scales standing on end.

The next instant, it spat out a ball of white frost from its mouth.

This ball of frost fell from the sky, attacking Qin Qing and Gong Yanghe.

"Not good!"

"Retreat quickly!" Qin Qing pulled Gong Yanghe back.

The two hastily retreated.

"Puff!"

The ball of white frost touched the stone wall and the ground.

Instantly, the sound of freezing crackled through the air.

Stone blocks, the surface of the stone wall, and the ground could be seen directly turning to powder under the extreme cold.

Then, in the blink of an eye, a thick layer of ice sealed a radius of dozens of yards.

"Huff, huff..."

Qin Qing and Gong Yanghe, both panting heavily.

Icicles formed on their eyebrows, temples, and even their faces.

"My blood almost froze; that was terrifying!" Gong Yanghe said in retrospect.

Qin Qing wiped a thin layer of ice from his face and let out a breath, "That was a strike from an Ancestral Beast... It seems the White Flood Dragon intentionally held back. Otherwise, we might have turned into ice sculptures."

"It seems the White Flood Dragon is protecting whatever is inside that cave... It didn’t want to kill us but to seal the cave with ice," Gong Yanghe’s eyes gleamed: "This further proves we were right in our guess, there must be some rare treasures inside that stone cave."

"Crack!"

Just at that moment.

In the void above the deep abyss.

The Thunderous Black Wolf seized the opportunity and suddenly clawed at the White Flood Dragon’s body.

Crack...

Lightning flickered on the claws of the Thunderous Black Wolf.

And the power behind that claw was tremendously terrifying.

The body of the White Flood Dragon slammed hard against a nearby stone wall.

Where the purple giant wolf’s claw had struck, several scales of the Flood Dragon fell off and fluttered to the ground.

The next moment, these scales, as large as palm-leaf fans, sliced through the rock at the bottom of the abyss as if they were blades cutting through soil, falling into depths unknown and leaving behind only grooves in their wake.

The White Flood Dragon’s fury intensified; it rolled over, stirring the void, and then opened its mouth to spit again.

"Whoosh!"

An even more tremendous and seemingly tangible coldness poured forth from the mouth of the White Flood Dragon.

The next moment, this white cold air turned into countless sharp blades.

Countless Ice Divine Weapons tore through the air, stabbing towards the purple-black giant wolf.

The pupils of the purple-black giant wolf narrowed slightly, then widened even more as it howled skyward, causing the entire ravine to tremble...

At the same time, numerous bolts of lightning exploded on the body of the purple-black giant wolf.

All were purple-black lightning bolts, spreading out from the purple-black giant wolf at the center, into the surrounding void like sharp purple-black spikes, piercing through space, aiming for the depths around them.

Qin Qing and Gong Yanghe, hiding below and observing the battle, couldn’t help but feel their hearts palpitate.

This was the terrifying might of an Ancestral Beast.

That sky filled with purple-black lightning, just any single bolt could cause their bodies and souls to be destroyed instantly.

It was at this point that Qin Qing realized he had still underestimated the power of a Nascent Soul Level Ferocious Beast and Martial Cultivator...

An Ancestral Beast could wield such devastating lethality, and the ancestors of Martial Arts were naturally not inferior to the Ancestral Beasts.

Even more so, because Human Race Martial Cultivators possessed all kinds of defying Cultivation Techniques and could refine High Rank Spiritual Treasures suitable for themselves, their combat power was often even more fearsome than that of Ferocious Beasts of the same Realm.

"Boom boom boom boom boom..."

The purple-black giant wolf almost turned into a sphere of lightning, rampaging with electricity.

It approached the White Flood Dragon, charging and smashing about, constantly swinging its claws. The lightning, like a Divine Whip, continuously lashed towards the White Flood Dragon.

"Crack crack crack crack crack!"

The sounds of the whip strikes and the bursting of lightning continued to come.

The White Flood Dragon wailed repeatedly, tumbling, roaring, and screeching within the ravine...

"How could this White Flood Dragon be so weak?"

Gong Yanghe seemed to see a clue, "If I’m not wrong, this White Flood Dragon should be an Ice Flood Dragon. And that black wolf, it’s an ancient Ferocious Beast, the Thunderous Black Wolf!"

Qin Qing nodded his head; he also had extensive knowledge about these Ferocious Beasts.

When he was less than ten years old, his father often made him read various books about Ferocious Beasts.

The Ice Flood Dragon, also known as the Ice Ling Flood Dragon, was a very powerful Ferocious Beast. This kind of Flood Dragon was born with the strength of the Tempering Body Realm, and upon reaching adulthood, it was an Ancestral Beast of the Nascent Soul Level.

If it found an opportunity and steadily absorbed the Spiritual Energy of the heavens and earth as well as the essence of the sun and moon, its Realm would continuously improve. And even transforming into a real dragon was not impossible...

"Logically speaking, being in the same Realm of the Nascent Soul, the strength of the White Flood Dragon should absolutely be above that of the Thunderous Black Wolf."

"Could it be that this White Flood Dragon has been injured?"

"Is the Thunderous Black Wolf trying to take advantage of the Ice Flood Dragon’s injury to eliminate it, thereby removing a future threat?"

Qin Qing and Gong Yanghe speculated on the various possibilities...

But the battle between the Ice Flood Dragon and the Thunderous Black Wolf had turned completely one-sided.

"At this rate, the Ice Flood Dragon won’t last much longer!" Qin Qing murmured.

And it was at this moment, the Ice Flood Dragon let out a sudden roar.

This roar was louder than any that had come before it.

But at the same time... within that loud sound, there was also unwillingness, helplessness, sadness, and even... Qin Qing also felt a sense of heroism and desolation...

"This White Flood Dragon..."

Qin Qing guessed a certain possibility.

Sure enough.

The next instant.

Coldness surged around the Ice Flood Dragon, and white frost spread out like fluff.

The Ice Flood Dragon opened its mouth and expelled a white crystalline, exceptionally transparent sphere from within.

"The Ice Flood Dragon is going all out. That’s its Essence Core, the accumulation of all its Cultivation— that thing is equivalent to the Dantian of us Human Race Martial Cultivators," said Gong Yanghe, his voice quivering slightly.

The next moment.

The white sphere flew towards the Thunderous Black Wolf.

Upon seeing this, the Thunderous Black Wolf’s pupils instantly revealed a look of terror.

It frantically turned around, attempting to flee the area.

But the sphere was too fast...

And in the very next instant, just as the sphere was about to hit the Thunderous Black Wolf, it burst open!

Suddenly, endless frost descended from the sky...
