Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1544: Chapter 604: Head-On, Slaying the Azure Dragon Crocodile

The same night scene, in the River Valley Region, was an entirely different sight.

”Ye Lingyue, can you really do this or not? Why is it that after all this time, there’s still no sign of that Azure Dragon Crocodile.”

Luo Qianche licked her lips, dried out by the wind.

Ye Lingyue and Luo Qianche had already been lurking in this area for half a day.

Yet they still hadn’t seen any trace of the Azure Dragon Crocodile; that clump of Heart Execution Grass was still neatly planted there.

”How strange, why has that Azure Dragon Crocodile shown no movement at all? Could it be that I really misjudged the situation.”

Ye Lingyue was also deeply perplexed.

She did not know that the Azure Dragon Crocodile was different from ordinary demon beasts; it was a daytime demon beast, one that appeared only in daylight.

Even now, at this critical moment of its advancement, this was still the case.

Though Ye Lingyue had raised Spiritual Beasts before, with Little Zhiyo and Little Wuya not by her side, she naturally wasn’t familiar with the Azure Dragon Crocodile’s habits.

Fortunately, she had been tough-minded since childhood. Anyone else would have long since grown impatient and left. She soothed Luo Qianche and lay in wait like a hunter by a tree stump, keeping watch until just before the break of dawn.

The night gradually faded, and the morning star flickered at the edge of the sky.

The two of them had hardly slept these past few days in the forest, and were growing a bit weary.

At this moment, Ye Lingyue’s spirit suddenly stirred; she nudged the drowsy Luo Qianche with her elbow.

A voice rich with magnetism, like celestial music, flowed continuously into her ears.

From the green mist ahead came an unusual sound.

The ground began to tremble, and a massive behemoth slowly moved over, like a looming mountain.

It was an enormous demon beast; its blood-red eyes were like two lanterns. In its upper and lower jaws grew hundreds of razor-sharp teeth, like countless daggers, exuding a chilling cold light.

Its body was covered in scales as hard as rock; wherever it stepped, the stones on the ground were crushed to dust.

This was an exceptionally dangerous demon beast, terrifying in its monstrous strength.

Seeing it, Ye Lingyue couldn’t help but feel a chill in her heart.

She had seen the Azure Dragon Crocodile before, but compared with the one from several months ago, the one before her eyes now was like a completely different creature.

Ye Lingyue could be certain that if the Tiger-faced Leopard King encountered it again at this moment, the Azure Dragon Crocodile could easily kill the Tiger-faced Leopard King in an instant with its razor-sharp teeth.

The Azure Dragon Crocodile had clearly only just awoken.

In these past days, ever since it devoured a large number of Soul-breaking Elixirs and Heart Execution Grass, its strength had increased greatly, and the demonic power within its body surged like a breached flood.

It could feel that it was on the verge of breaking through.

That was why it exhaled the green mist, seeking to use it to aid its breakthrough.

But for some unknown reason, the Azure Dragon Crocodile’s bottleneck remained stubbornly unbroken.

The Azure Dragon Crocodile grew more irritable by the day. Last night, while in a stupor, it had smelled a certain fragrance.

By morning, that enticing fragrance had grown stronger and stronger.

At last, unable to resist the temptation, the Azure Dragon Crocodile stepped out of the green mist.

It was clearly very cautious; with every step it took, it had to look around first.

Only after discovering no one was there did it stride quickly up to the Heart Execution Grass.

That tuft of emerald-green Heart Execution Grass exuded an alluring fragrance; compared to any batch of Heart Execution Grass the Azure Dragon Crocodile had taken before, its quality was far superior.

The Azure Dragon Crocodile opened its enormous maw, its scarlet tongue curling around the Heart Execution Grass and shoving it all into its mouth.

A surge of demonic power instantly entered its body, and the Azure Dragon Crocodile rejoiced.

But in the instant the Heart Execution Grass slid down into its belly, the Azure Dragon Crocodile suddenly felt a knife-like pain in its throat. The originally delicious Heart Execution Grass actually became a throat-slitting Poison; a scorching, burning pain seeped into its tongue.

The Azure Dragon Crocodile spat out a mouthful of blood with a puff; it was actually half of a mangled, bloody tongue. It turned out this beast had not only increased in strength, but its Spiritual Sense had also risen greatly.

After swallowing the Heart Execution Grass and sensing something was wrong, it immediately bit off its own tongue to save itself.

That half of the tongue rolled to the ground and quickly turned into a puddle of pus; the ferocity of the Poison was evident.

Having lost half its tongue, the Azure Dragon Crocodile realized it had been duped. It grew even more violent and restless; the demonic power within its body raged like a flood of wild beasts breaking a dam. With a booming roar, wherever its demonic power swept, trees were uprooted and rocks tumbled, all obstacles in the surroundings instantly obliterated.

Two figures burst out.

This big fellow was even more difficult to deal with than she had imagined.

The Poison on the Heart Execution Grass was Ice Frost Poison, naturally smeared there by Ye Lingyue.

After its mutation, the Azure Dragon Crocodile had become even harder to handle.

Ye Lingyue would use every possible means to weaken its strength.

Ye Lingyue’s gaze sharpened, and the Primordial Power within her body was unleashed without reservation.

At her side, Luo Qianche also summoned the Merfolk Elixir.

Seeing Ye Lingyue and Luo Qianche, a flicker of hatred flashed in the Azure Dragon Crocodile’s eyes.

It let out an enraged roar, its body turning into a streak of azure light as it lunged fiercely at the two of them.

”Split up and fight!”

Ye Lingyue shouted sharply, raising the Nine Dragon Chant and giving her wrist a flick.

The Female Sword Nine Dragon Chant shimmered with snowy light, tearing through the dawn mist, killing intent surging as it thrust toward the Azure Dragon Crocodile.

As the Female Sword Nine Dragon Chant stabbed out, Ye Lingyue simultaneously roused her spiritual power; dozens of Heavenly Sword Hemp blades shadowed its path, stabbing straight at the Azure Dragon Crocodile like a sudden downpour.

Luo Qianche’s Merfolk Elixir flared, forming a mass of ice spikes; countless blue shadows thudded like dense drumbeats, pounding heavily onto the Azure Dragon Crocodile’s body.

The ice spikes struck the Azure Dragon Crocodile, and a layer of solid ice instantly congealed over its body.

Luo Qianche’s face lit up with joy, but just then the mountain-like Azure Dragon Crocodile’s entire body shimmered with azure light over its armor-like scales, and with a crackling crash, the ice layer exploded apart.

The Nine Dragon Chant and dozens of Heavenly Swords arrived at the same time, but the massive tail behind it—almost equal in length to its body—lashed out at a terrifying speed.

It accurately swept aside the Female Sword Nine Dragon Chant and all the dozens of Heavenly Sword Hemp blades, sending them flying.

The Heaven Rank Heavenly Sword Hemp was directly shattered into pieces, fragments scattering across the ground; even the Female Sword Nine Dragon Chant was severely shaken, wobbling like a drunkard as it dropped to the ground.

In the blink of an eye, the Azure Dragon Crocodile had actually shattered both of their attacks.

The two women drew in a sharp breath.

Its scale armor was incomparably tough, and that crocodile tail could even smash apart Heaven Rank Spiritual Artifacts. The Azure Dragon Crocodile’s strength was truly terrifying—did it have no weakness at all?

Pelted by repeated attacks, the Azure Dragon Crocodile was enraged as well.

A sliver of murderous light flashed in its blood-red eyes as it raised its massive claws.

Under its claws, demonic power swirled and condensed; when it struck out, it transformed into hundreds of claw shadows.

The overlapping claw shadows seemed omnipresent as they came crashing down; within a radius of one li, everything was completely covered.

”Careful!”

Realizing something was wrong, Ye Lingyue and Luo Qianche simultaneously sprang back.

With several thunderous booms, the claw shadows brushed past their scalps and slammed into the ground, causing the earth to shake and mountains to sway; two new craters instantly appeared on the ground.
