DRAGON EMPEROR
CHAPTER 42 The Mutated Black Scales Monitor Lizard
In a daze, Feng Wu started to grunt softly while slightly pouting.
Without warning, Lu Ming whispered near his ear, “Much would you like to say. Do you care so much about me?”
Feng Wu was caught off guard and started to get scared, almost crying out in a loud voice. His little face reddened as he looked at Lu Ming with a sharp gaze. “Omong empty what is it? Who cares about you? If it wasn't for Brother Mu Lan's orders, if it wasn't for you saving me, I wouldn't care about you!”
"Oh! So, that's how it is!” Lu Ming clicked his tongue and threw his face away.
Phew!
Feng Wu let out a soft breath. Even so, for some reason, his heart did not stop pounding.
Shortly after, another group arrived. These were the disciples in the Onyx Tortoise Hall.
The four halls are all here.
Lu Ming and Feng Wu held their breaths while gazing forward.
After a while, the disciples of the four halls placed the Silver-Eyed Rabbits one after another at the entrance of the cave. Then, they all dispersed and searched for a hiding place nearby.
There were over fifty Silver-Eyed Rabbits in the east. The Silver-Eyed Rabbits were all filled with Drowsy Powder. The smell of rabbits filled the air.
Swished...
Shortly after, a lizard that was half a meter tall and four meters long came climbing out. It was covered in black scales.
This is a Black Scaly Monitor Lizard. Nevertheless, it turned out that it was just an ordinary Black Scale Monitor Lizard, which was equivalent to a Second Grade Second-rate demonic beast. It was not a mutated Black Scale Monitor Lizard and was at the Level Two of Grade Nine.
The Black Scaly Monitor Lizard looked at the Silver-Eyed Rabbit as it crawled out. He hurriedly ran forward and swallowed the Silver-Eyed Rabbit in one gulp with great pleasure.
Swished...
At this point, another Black Scale Monitor Lizard also came out. It was also not a mutated Black Scale Monitor Lizard.
Immediately, several Black Scale Monitor Lizards climbed out one after another. In a few moments, they had swallowed ten or more Silver-Eyed Rabbits.
The apprentices in the four halls were somewhat anxious. They spent a few days just to catch this Silver-Eyed Rabbit. If an ordinary Black Scale Monitor Lizard ate it all, the apprentices would not have a second chance.
Currently, there were only two more days left until the exam ended. They did not have time to catch that many Silver-Eyed Rabbits anymore.
Moreover, they did not carry enough Drowsiness Powder.
That time...
Roars!
Thunderous screams echoed from within the cave. After that, there was a continuous boom as colossal creatures appeared.
It was also a Black Scaly Monitor Lizard, but it was ten times larger in size than the others. Especially her eyes are red.
This piece of metal hanging on the neck of the Black Scaly Monitor Lizard says two words: “Five Hundred”.
A piece of metal 500 points!
Everyone's eyes shone sharply.
Roars!
Upon noticing the Silver-Eyed Rabbit, the mutated Black Scale Monitor Lizard let out a loud howling sound.
Swished...
The other Black Scales Monitor Lizards looked frightened and they all retreated.
The mutated Black Scaly Monitor Lizard advanced by itself and opened its terrifying jaws. In one gulp, he devoured five or six Silver-Eyed Rabbits.
After a few minutes, nearly 40 Silver-Eyed Rabbits were swallowed by the mutated Black Scale Monitor Lizard.
He roared once more, then turned around, slowly slipping back into the cave.
Swished...
At this point, the ordinary Black Scales Monitor Lizard, which first ate the Silver-Eyed Rabbit, swayed slightly before falling to the ground and snoring in a deep sleep.
The Drowsiness Powder on the Silver-Eyed Rabbits inside their stomachs began to take effect.
The apprentices in the four halls did not rush into the cave while waiting for the medicine to work.
Only after ten minutes had passed did all the apprentices race into the cave.
After a few minutes, Feng Wu asked Lu Ming, “Are we going in too?”
“I'll be in. Wait for me here.” Lu Ming nodded before explaining further, “Everything might become a mess there. If I was alone, it would be easier to escape.”
She bit her lip, realizing that she was right.
"alright. Then you have to be careful,” he said.
Lu Ming nodded, then his figure darted as he entered the cave.
Outside the cave, there were still apprentices from the four halls whose cultivation levels were not very high. Even so, no one dared to stop Lu Ming.
Since the other apprentice was also inside, who would be willing to stop him?
Lu Ming managed to enter the cave without any difficulty.
In the dark cave. Although Lu Ming was a Realm Master martial artist, with much better eyesight than ordinary people, the cave was also dim and gloomy for him.
Lu Ming held his breath and carefully stepped forward.
However, after 100 meters, there were a few T-shirts on the road. He even saw the body of the Black Scaly Monitor Lizard there.
This was merely a First Level Black Scale Monitor Lizard, so Lu Ming had no interest in absorbing its blood essence. Therefore, he simply chose the path and continued on the journey.
In this lair of the Black Scaly Monitor Lizard, its path meandered in all directions, intersecting in a complicated manner.
Lu Ming traveled several hundred meters before finding another crossroads. Again, he chose the path randomly and went deeper.
On the way, he saw several bodies of the Black Scale Monitor Lizard.
There were two Level One Black Scale Monitor Lizards and one Level Two Black Scale Monitor Lizard. Lu Ming did not miss it and devoured all of their blood essence.
As he walked, he cultivated the blood essence. His cultivation increased greatly.
It was clear that the apprentices of the four halls had numbers on their side. Throughout his journey, he had not seen a single corpse of his disciple.
In this way, Lu Ming went for about 20 minutes, devouring three First-class Black Scale Monitor Lizards and one Second-Class Black Scale Monitor Lizard on his way. His cultivation had managed to reach the Second Grade Intermediate Master Realm.
Just then, Lu Ming saw a dim light source ahead.
He stomped lightly as he headed towards the light. As he approached it, he discovered it was another cave entrance that was lower than the average person's height. He walked forward and looked out of the entrance, and was shocked.
Outside this entrance, there was an enormous underground cavern. It was over a hundred meters wide and tens of meters tall.
Everywhere in the stone walls of the cave were rocks that shone with a faint light. This is the luminous stone ore. If one extracted the luminous components from this ore, it could be used to produce Luminous Stones that could be used for lighting.
With the glow of the Luminous Stone ore, Lu Ming also saw many entrances throughout the cave. Through the entrance, he could faintly see a human figure.
Several men from the four halls were waiting outside this entrance.
As for the entrance next to Lu Ming, it was over ten meters above the ground level of the cave.
In the middle of the cave, a giant creature lay lying. It was a mutated Black Scale Monitor Lizard.
Currently, the Black Scale Monitor Lizard had yet to fall into a deep sleep. He growled softly and opened his bloody mouth from time to time.
No wonder the apprentices in the four halls had yet to take action. They were waiting for the mutated Black Scale Monitor Lizard to fall asleep.
The mutated Black Scale Monitor Lizard was a Ninth Grade Second-rate demonic beast that was equivalent to a Nine-Tiered Master Realm powerhouse. Any martial artist under the Fourth Grade Master Realm would definitely die if they were hit by his attacks even once.
Time passes slowly. After ten minutes or so, the eyelids of the mutated Black Scale Monitor Lizard became heavier. He fell but did not fall fully asleep.
The resistance of the mutated Black Scale Monitor Lizard was terrifying. Even after eating so many Silver-Eyed Rabbits, he was still able to survive until now.
Holy hooch!
Just then, a body figure shot out from one of the cave entrances like lightning, lunging towards the neck of the Black Scaly Monitor Lizard.
"Yin Kai!"
Lu Ming's eyes twinkled. That figure was actually Yin Kai.
