Chapter 283 - Dragon Serpent

    The silver dragon island looks very strange.

    The Silver Dragon Island has an area of about 1 million square kilometers, and is covered with various celestial and terrestrial spiritual roots.

    Perhaps it is because there are jiaolong (mythical dragons) here; such a large island, yet not a single animal has ever been found.

    Moreover, the waters around the island seem to have been affected by the majesty of the jiaolong (mythical dragons), and no aquatic life dares to come near.

    These are not very extraordinary.

    The reason Chen Yun finds the Silver Dragon Island peculiar is because it is shrouded in a faint silver glow.

    This layer of silver glow, like moonlight, covers the entire island.

    No matter the various celestial and terrestrial spiritual roots, or the earth, mountains, rivers, etc., all exude a faint silver glow on top of their original colors.

    The most astonishing thing was that he felt the silver glow contained a terrifying amount of energy.

    As if, if these silvers can be manipulated by humans, they will explode with destructive power.

    High altitude.

    Between clouds.

    Chen Yun was surveying the environment of Silver Dragon Island.

    The voice of Wu Kejiu echoed in his ears, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is the Silver Dragon Island."

    Chen Yun turned his head and looked towards the other party, knowing that they were going to provide information. He stood up straight and listened attentively.

    After all, this time they would face a spirit beast, a jiaolong (mythical dragon).

    If they were not careful, there was a high chance that they might be wiped out completely.

    Of course, Chen Yun needed to have a sufficient understanding of the Silver Dragon Island.

    Qin Ming, Dragon Girl SanJiu and Ding Xu, etc., had been here before, and these information were unnecessary for them.

    Zhang Ling, Sun Yan and a dozen others, just like Chen Yun, were visiting here for the first time. They all showed a serious expression.

    Wu Kejiu carefully explained, "The silver glow on the Silver Dragon Island is the light emitted by the silver dragon thorns buried under the water. This incredibly powerful treasure is probably around 300 feet under the water at the center of the Silver Dragon Island..."

    "About 300 feet under the water?" Sun Yan said with slight surprise: "If we dive into such a deep water, our qi circulation may become difficult to operate. How can we deal with the jiaolong (mythical dragon) at that time?"

    If other questions interrupted Wu Kejiu, Chen Yun might not be pleased, but he knew that Sun Yan was right. For a medium-grade magician, diving into a water depth of several kilometers would likely only leave their qi for maintaining their vitality. How could they possibly also fight the jiaolong (mythical dragon)?

    Wu Kejiu seemed to have expected this question and smiled, saying, "Therefore, those of you with weaker cultivation, you don't need to go underwater later. When I and the three of us from Qin Pavilion go deep into the water to attract the jiaolong (mythical dragon) to the surface, Master Chen should set up his formation at the designated location. You all can cooperate with Master Chen to try to trap the jiaolong for a short period of time. That's right, don't need to trap it for long. Just for a moment or two is enough."

    Chen Yun was somewhat worried and asked, "Master Wu, my arrangement to trap the jiaolong (mythical dragon) with all of you is not a big problem. However, can you be sure that you and Master Qin will be able to escape from the water safely under the pursuit of the jiaolong?"

    "Yes," Dragon Girl Sanjiu agreed. "Fifty years ago, that jiaolong (mythical dragon) was already as powerful as a senior magician in the later stage. With so much time passing, it might have grown even stronger, comparable to a master's power. Both of you are not good at swimming, and your strength will be greatly reduced underwater. I'm afraid that you might not even manage to attract the jiaolong to the surface before it kills you both."

    Ding Xu was also persuading, "Jiaolong (mythical dragon) is much stronger in water. Even fifty years ago, it was comparable to a senior magician. In water, it can exhibit powers comparable to a master. If it is truly comparable to a master now and is in water, it might be able to unleash hidden powers close to a true person. Your strength will be greatly reduced underwater. This decrease in strength and the increase in the other side might lead to instant death. Perhaps we should reconsider this for the time being?"

    Wu Kejiu roared with laughter and said, "Do you think Master Qin wanted to seek out the Bihai Pearl for no reason? Apart from his desire to explore incredible treasures in the outside world, the main reason was also to help me obtain the Silver Dragon Spike. Although he did not get the Silver Dragon Spike before, he obtained Shamo Silk, which can be worn on one's body and

    He paused here and said, "The jiaolong (mythical dragon) is indeed powerful, but as long as Master Qin and I maintain a safe distance and handle ourselves well, we will definitely be able to break away from the surface before it catches up with us. By then, it all depends on Master Chen's formation and the rest of you to contain the jiaolong."

    Hearing that the other party had prepared, Chen Yun secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

    At this moment, Wu Kejiu said again, "Master Chen's Green Dragon Red Blood formation can release Qian (the primordial) light to attack, which is inherently the most strong and yang energy, and it is exactly what can counteract the jiaolong (mythical dragon). If Master Qin and I can lead it into the Green Dragon Red Blood formation, its power will be reduced to about half of what it was in the past."

    Qin Ming nodded in agreement and said, "Once the jiaolong (mythical dragon) falls into the formation, I will also join the battle and fight together with you to restrain it. We don't need to restrain it for long. Just twenty breaths or so will be enough for Master Wu to obtain the treasure. Then we can leave quickly even before Master Wu fully masters the Silver Dragon Spike. It won't be a problem to kill this jiaolong."

    "If both of you elders have prepared early, we will act according to the plan."

    "We will do our utmost to hold this jiaolong (mythical dragon)."

    "Then, let Master Chen set up the formation first. After the formation is ready, you two will go underwater."

    Dragon Girl SanJiu, Ding Xu and Zhang Ling and others replied in unison.

    Later, Chen Yun and others toned down their vitality and landed at the edge of the Silver Dragon Island.

    Wu Kejiu indicated a place near the shore with many reefs for Chen Yun to set up the Green Dragon Red Blood formation.

    Having enjoyed so many "benefits" before, Chen Yun naturally did not show any negligence when it was time for him to exert effort.

    He took out the formation banner from his Tuguan Method space and had everyone insert it according to the orientation.

    Hmm, we must not leak our vitality at the moment, otherwise we might be detected by the jiaolong (mythical dragon).

    Otherwise, Chen Yun could have easily inserted the formation banners with his magical power.

    Setting up the formation banner takes time.

    It took about an hour to set up the formation.

    Chen Yun checked the formation again to ensure there were no issues, and then informed Wu Kejiu and Qin Ming to go underwater and lead the jiaolong (mythical dragon) into the formation.

    Wu Kejiu and Qin Ming didn't waste any words. Wu Kejiu took out an anti-water token, and Qin Ming put on the shark skin, and then without activating any qi in their bodies, they plunged into the water together.

    ……

    Time passed minute by minute and second by second.

    Chen Yun, Dragon Girl Sanjiu, and Ding Xu, among others, were hiding in different positions of the formation.

    Once Wu Kejiu and Qin Ming attract the jiaolong (mythical dragon) up, they will immediately activate the formation.

    Then everyone will bombard the jiaolong with intense force, preventing it from escaping temporarily. That would essentially be the completion of their task.

    Of course, while it may sound simple, actually executing it successfully is another matter entirely.

    Since they couldn't draw upon their magic power at the moment, and everyone was quite far apart.

    Therefore, there was no communication among them.

    Chen Yun stood on a rock, with his physical form standing beside him.

    He kept looking towards the water surface, entering combat readiness at once whenever he detected any unusual movements.

    He didn't know what was happening with Wu Kejiu and Qin Ming; it had been more than ten minutes since they dived in, and there was still no sign of movement.

    If there were no energy fluctuations from the water, Chen Yun might have thought that Wu Kejiu and Qin Ming had been instantly killed by the jiaolong (mythical dragon).

    It was probably another five minutes later.

    Suddenly, the water surface in front surged!

    The vast water surface instantly boiled!

    Water bubbles the size of fists popped up one after another and then seemed to be shattered abruptly due to some force vibration.

    Splash! Splish-splash!

    The sound from the water surface is becoming more and more intense.

    Finally, after a short while, "splash!" and "splash!" two sounds of water emerging were heard one after the other, along with the disheveled appearance of Wu Kejiu and Qin Ming.

    Wu Kejiu, who had just burst out of the water halfway to the sky, shouted immediately, "Everyone, the jiaolong is coming!"

    Although Qin Ming didn't speak, his immediate entrance into the formation as a streak of light could be interpreted as his heart filled with fear for the jiaolong.

    "Prepare yourselves!"

    "Attention everyone!"

    Dragon Girl Sanjiu, Ding Xu, and Gao Cheng, among others, activated their qi within their bodies while holding out magical artifacts at the same time, and all entered combat readiness.

    Chen Yun's true qi surged throughout his entire body in an instant, emitting intense gold light.

    And as he reached out with his hand, the Red Gold Demon-Slaying Sword appeared instantly in his palm.

    The next second, the water surface suddenly soared up to ten thousand feet in height with giant waves!

    "Moo!"

    A sound like a cow's call, as well as a rumbling thunder that seemed to boil with the towering waves, suddenly resounded through the sky and earth!

    Chen Yun looked hurriedly and then couldn't help but draw in a sharp breath of cold air.

    He saw that within the towering waves, there was a massive jiaolong, about ten or so miles in length, with its mouth wide open and claws spread out as it soared to the heavens!

    The huge size of this jiaolong was even more massive than the previously encountered centipede-like magical beasts by Chen Yun and others!

    Of course, that wasn't the main reason Chen Yun drew in a sharp breath of cold air.

    He drew in a sharp breath of cold air not because of the jiaolong's enormous size, but because the moment it emerged from the water, a massive and overwhelming pressure spread out in all directions.

    The sky was shaking in tremors!

    The water surface was even more turbulent, as if the end of the world had arrived!

    This wave of pressure was so strong that even though Chen Yun had previously cultivated to the middle stage of a superior magician with the essence blood of a water eel, under this pressure, his true qi felt as if it had been trapped in quicksand, making it difficult to mobilize and unleash its power.

    So strong!

    This jiaolong is too powerful!

    Chen Yun could judge just by a glance that the true strength of this jiaolong was absolutely comparable to that of an elder.

    How can he be so certain?

    Because he was standing next to his physical form, equivalent to a high-level magician, and upon seeing the jiaolong, his physical form transmitted a feeling of deep fear and suppression.

    If the jiaolong were only comparable to a high-level magician, it wouldn't be able to bring about such a feeling of fear and suppression to the physical form.

    Looking at the jiaolong's massive body that blocked out the sky and covered the earth, Chen Yun knew that if they didn't work well together today, it was very likely that everyone would be wiped out here!
