DRAGON EMPEROR

CHAPTER 44 Obtaining Metal Pieces

Currently, the eyes of the mutated Black Scale Monitor Lizard were narrowed. He almost fell asleep. Otherwise, he would not have simply sat there quietly throughout their fierce battle.

Moreover, there was no entrance on the wall next to the Black Scale Monitor Lizard. There's nowhere to run.

“Lu Ming, you have no way out.”

Duanmu Jue and the others approached slowly. If they were not worried about the Black Scale Monitor Lizard, they would have already attacked it.

"Is that so? Are you guys so confident?”

At this stage, Lu Ming was truly beaming. How can he still smile?

However, before long, Duanmu Jue, Yin Kai, and the others understood the reason.

Lu Ming suddenly turned around and ran towards the mutated Black Scale Monitor Lizard. That sword light whistled through the air, mercilessly piercing towards the Black Scale Monitor Lizard.

“Lu Ming, what are you doing?”

"Stop!"

"Stop now. You asked for it!”

Duanmu Jue and the others changed their tone quickly, each shouting furiously.

Even so, Lu Ming's sword light did not stop.

Pfft!

The long sword viciously pierced the body of the mutated Black Scale Monitor Lizard.

Roars!

As the long sword pierced through his body, the mutated Black Scale Monitor Lizard howled furiously and its eyes opened.

“One more slash!” Lu Ming whipped out his long sword, spitting out a burst of blood. Then he stabbed once again.

This time, the Black Scaly Monitor Lizard had been fully awake. He roared furiously and swung his huge claws at him.

Lu Ming used the Dragon Snake Steps to dodge the attack of the Black Scale Monitor Lizard. After which, he dashed towards Duanmu Jue, Yin Kai, and the others.

Roars!

The mutated Black Scaly Monitor Lizard cried out deafeningly as it ran wildly towards Lu Ming.

“Lu Ming!” Duanmu Jue, Yin Kai, and the others shouted furiously, but they could only turn around and run away helplessly.

The strongest among them only existed in the Fourth Grade Master Realm. Even with their entire strength combined, it was not enough to kill the mutated Black Scale Monitor Lizard.

“Why did you run? Aren't you going to kill me?” Lu Ming's mocking voice sounded. Duanmu Jue and the others almost coughed up blood from anger. They secretly swore to never forgive Lu Ming.

Like birds struck by arrows, they did not dare to linger in this cave. Each of them rushed towards the entrance of the cave.

“Hahaha, see you!” Lu Ming descended from the ground firmly and jumped into the air. He immediately landed at the entrance ten meters above the ground and hurriedly ran away.

After running the branches, he traveled more than a kilometer of tunnel in a sprint. That was when Lu Ming sat down to rest.

He thought of something and took out a piece of metal that was worth using. These metal pieces are made of different materials compared to other metal pieces. It is dark gold and very dense.

On its surface there are two big golden words: “Five Hundred”.

With these 500 points, in addition to the previous 124 points, Lu Ming obtained a total of 624 points.

'624 points..is that enough or not?' Lu Ming began to ponder in silence.

It's hard to say. For example, Duanmu Jue, Yin Kai, and the others had gathered so many people. Some of them only kept ten points and gave the rest of the metal pieces that were worth points to Duanmu Jue and the others. In that case, it was difficult to estimate how many points they had, so accumulating five or six hundred points was a possibility.

'There are still two days left. Maybe I can get some points from the Duanmu Family or the Yin Kai.’ group A grin was on Lu Ming's lips.

Just then, frenzied footsteps sounded behind him. They're very nimble. In the blink of an eye, several figures appeared before Lu Ming.

“Duanmujue!”

Lu Ming measured it. The center among the three was Duanmu Jue. The other two people beside him were genius apprentices in the White Tiger Hall with their cultivation levels in the Third Grade Master Realm.

As he looked at Lu Ming, Duanmu Jue did not seem surprised as she smiled humorlessly. “Lu Ming, you are indeed here. How are you going to run now?”

“Hehe, I'd better tell you. My blood meridian is the Keen Spirit Hound. With me, you cannot escape,” a short young man beside Duanmu Jue spoke up.

“So, you have a dog nose!” Lu Ming realized the truth.

“Lu Ming, I am not hunting you, yet you dare to take my precious piece of metal. You have the guts. Now, hand over the piece of metal and I'll be soft on you,” Duanmu Jue said.

Lu Ming smirked. “Does everyone from the Duanmu Family have such great confidence? I really wonder how you guys became the number one family in the White Tiger Hall.”

“Did you say you won't hand it over? I'll show you how my Duanmu Family became the number one family. The Flying Tiger Sword! Kill it!"

With that, Duanmu Jue pounced on Lu Ming. Sword Qi surged, and a faint tiger roar sounded.

Clangs!

Lu Ming drew his sword to counterattack.

Clangs! Clangs!

Both of their long swords clashed fiercely.

The space in the cave tunnel was narrow, so there was not much room for fighting poses. They could only fight directly with violence.

Their swords collided several times. Lu Ming felt his arms tired, and he subconsciously took three steps back. Meanwhile, Duanmu Jue's body was only slightly up and down.

'A Fourth Grade Teacher possessed extremely strong strength. My current strength cannot match him at all!' Lu Ming thought to himself.

“Your sword technique isn't bad, but it's a pity you're too weak. Die then! Flying Tiger Pouncing!” Duanmu Jue grinned coldly and swung his sword towards Lu Ming.

Lu Ming had the impression that a ferocious tiger was charging at him.

The Flying Tiger Sword Technique was a Superior Yellow Level technique. Duanmu Jue had developed it into the Third Stage, and his movements were swift and ruthless.

'Since I am not his match in terms of strength, then I will use speed!' Lu Ming focused his concentration, immersed completely in the Glittering Sword Technique.

Holy hooch!

Sword light one after another attacked, attacking Duanmu Jue's vital point. His speed was obviously much faster than Duanmu Jue's speed.

Duanmu Jue could only stop attacking and use his strength to block Lu Ming's sword light.

“So what if your sword technique is fast? If the force doesn't work, I will attack until you can't hold your sword!” Duanmu Jue weaved his long sword in an impenetrable pattern, continuously clashing against Lu Ming's long sword.

Waves of powerful Essential Qi continued to flow, hitting Lu Ming.

"Is that so? What if I speed it up?”

Now, a thin grin appeared in Lu Ming's mouth. His blade shone and his technique became faster. Like a stream, sword light flowed endlessly towards Duanmu Jue.

His Glittering Sword Technique had just broken through.

Previously, his Glittering Sword Technique was stifled at the Fourth Stage and he was unable to break through.

Nevertheless, in this fight against Duanmu Jue, the Glittering Sword Technique managed to break through to the Fifth Stage to achieve God-like Perfect Use in a single move.

Duanmu Jue's expression changed. Right now, he could barely maintain his defense. Right now, he realized that he was unable to withstand this barrage of attacks at all.

Holy hooch!

Lu Ming's gleaming sword light instantly pierced through his defenses, slashing toward his chest.

“Retreat, retreat, retreat!” Duanmu Jue was startled and retreated in panic. Even so, he was a little late.

Cut it!

Lu Ming's sword light immediately left a bloody wound on his chest.

Duanmu Jue was drenched in cold sweat. If he had not retreated fast enough, he would have already died.

"Get on! Attack together and kill him!” Duanmu Jue roared furiously.

"Kill!"

As the other two young men and Duanmu Jue attacked Lu Ming together, all three of their spiritual weapons erupted with formidable Sword Qi.
