Zhou Yan's lips curled into a sneer. "You think a piece of rags can block me?"
As he spoke, Zhou Yan's figure flickered, swift as the wind. He pointed a finger, striking the black dragon's head.
The black dragon's cranial center was pierced, blood gushing out.
Instantly, the black dragon wailed in agony, its face turning pale.
"Damn it... detestable..."
The black dragon was filled with resentment.
Zhou Yan was clearly humiliating it, stirring its rage.
"Black Dragon Treasure Robe, open!"
The black dragon roared towards the sky, its body swelling, its aura rising steadily until it reached its peak state.
Boom!
Its massive tail lashed out, creating a sharp gust of wind as it swept towards Zhou Yan.
"Good. Come."
Zhou Yan burst into laughter, his fighting spirit ignited.
He stomped his foot, his body launched upwards, and he punched out, smashing the black dragon's sweeping tail away.
Then, his right leg bent and he kicked out fiercely, aiming for the black dragon's head.
The black dragon's skull cracked, blood splattered, and its head was almost shattered.
"Roar... it hurts so much."
The black dragon cried out in pain.
This time, it suffered extremely serious injuries.
Zhou Yan's attacks were swift and his strength astonishing, far surpassing that of ordinary Innate Grandmasters.
"Heh, you foolish snake, you must die today."
Zhou Yan's gaze was icy, killing intent surging.
Just now, he had sensed a core within the black dragon, sealed inside its body.
This was a treasure.
If he devoured it, his cultivation would surely soar, and he might even have a chance to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.
The black dragon's cultivation had already reached the Half-Step Foundation Establishment, with only the final step remaining to truly enter the Foundation Establishment stage.
"Kid, don't be arrogant. I'm not entangled with you anymore."
Suddenly, the black dragon grunted and chose to flee.
"Want to leave? Too late."
Zhou Yan's eyes were chilling.
This was a Half-Step Foundation Establishment level beast, with a sturdy physique, noble bloodline, and its whole body was a treasure.
If he could kill the black dragon, he would be rich.
Therefore, he had no intention of giving up easily.
"Kid, I admit, your physical body is not weak, even stronger than mine by three parts."
The black dragon's eyes darted, revealing a cunning glint. "Unfortunately, our black dragon tribe excels at speed, not melee combat."
"You can't catch me, but I can easily escape you."
As soon as it finished speaking, the black dragon's body flickered, transforming into a streak of light and fleeing towards the direction of the forest.
"Hmph, trying to escape? No way."
Zhou Yan snorted, leaped up, and closely followed the black dragon, his movement technique transforming him into an afterimage as he darted forward.
In the blink of an eye, the two were in a chase, disappearing into the vast night.
"Kid, remember this, I will never let you off."
The black dragon roared, speeding away and escaping the valley.
It could already feel Zhou Yan's aura getting closer and closer.
A moment later, Zhou Yan finally caught up.
"Hm?"
The black dragon's pupils constricted.
Zhou Yan's speed was too fast, almost matching its own, making it impossible to shake him off.
"Damn it, what should I do?"
The black dragon's face darkened.
It could already see that this young man in front of it was extremely powerful.
Coupled with his strange movement technique, it was afraid it wouldn't be able to escape.
However, it was unwilling to give up just yet.
"I'll go all out!"
Finally, the black dragon gritted its teeth and decided to fight desperately.
Whoosh.
Its body rolled, and it spewed a cloud of dark mist from its mouth.
The dark clouds blotted out the sky, enveloping everything and emitting a scent of decay and evil.
The black dragon roared, its wings unfurled, stirring up monstrous black waves that swept in all directions.
"Kid, die for me."
It uttered a venomous curse.
"This is my domain!"
The black dragon's eyes were filled with ferocity. Its domain could suppress the enemy's movements, making it difficult for the opponent to move or use their techniques.
This move was extremely powerful.
In its eyes, it would only take a few seconds to kill Zhou Yan.
"You stinking fish, you really know how to enjoy yourself."
Within the black dragon's domain, Zhou Yan remained unfazed.
He raised a fist. His fist was crystal clear, radiating golden light, like glazed glass, containing immense power.
Zhou Yan threw a punch, instantly shattering the sky-filling black tide.
Pfft.
The next moment, the black dragon was pierced by a punch, blood spraying out, its life force dimming.
"You're useless."
Zhou Yan shook his head, plucked out the black dragon's core, and casually tossed it into his storage ring.
Then, Zhou Yan leaped up, perched on the branch of a towering ancient tree, and waited for the black dragon to revive.
A moment later—
"Damn it, this damned kid."
"You wait, I will never let you off."
"When my strength recovers, you'll be the first I kill."
The black dragon's mournful roars echoed throughout the area.
Its body writhed, its blood boiled, and a layer of dark red scales emerged on its skin, exuding a foul stench that filled the entire valley.
"The black dragon's bloodline has awakened."
From a distance, Zhou Ming's expression changed slightly. He quickly urged, "Grandpa, take advantage of the black dragon's extreme weakness and kill it quickly."
"Otherwise, once it completely awakens, we will be in danger."
"Mm."
Zhou Tianlong nodded, his gaze sharp, and slowly advanced.
"Little beast, I will remember this debt. I will make you repay it a hundredfold sooner or later."
The black dragon's eyes turned scarlet, and it glared at Zhou Ming with fierce eyes.
"Hmph, a mere ant, daring to threaten me?"
Zhou Yan's gaze was chilling, staring directly at the black dragon.
In an instant, his killing intent soared, as if it could freeze the air.
Rumble.
His skin emitted a dazzling golden light, as if cast in gold, blinding to the eye and filled with a fierce aura.
At the same time, his blood surged like a rushing river, shaking heaven and earth.
Beneath Zhou Yan's skin, a faint dragon's roar could be heard. His qi and blood seemed to transform into a dragon-elephant.
"What?"
Feeling that formidable aura, the black dragon's face was filled with horror, and it couldn't help but take a step back.
Although it was a demonic beast, it was still in its infancy and had never witnessed such a scene.
"You stinking fish, still daring to threaten me?"
Zhou Yan snorted and strode forward, his qi and blood churning.
Thump, thump, thump!
With every step he took, the ground trembled violently.
A terrifying aura emanated from his body, sweeping in all directions, causing the air to vibrate continuously.
Zhou Yan's eyes were cold, and his body suddenly accelerated, like a furious lion, crashing forward.
"Not good."
The black dragon was greatly alarmed, its heart filled with dread.
Crack!
The next moment, Zhou Yan's fist landed.
Accompanied by a piercing explosion, the black dragon's massive body was sent flying backward.
The black dragon crashed to the ground, kicking up a storm of dust.
At the same time, a green spirit stone fell from its mouth.
This spirit stone was precisely the core it had just spat out.
At this moment, a head poked out from the nearby wild grass, looking utterly bewildered.
"My heavens!"
"That black dragon, it actually lost!"
The little beast in the grass's eyes widened, its mouth forming an 'o' shape.
One had to know that the black dragon was a Half-Step Grandmaster level demonic beast with astonishing combat power.
Even in Qingyun Commandery, it was a formidable figure.
