Chapter 594: Chapter 381: Branch Horn Cloud Deer
The arrow transformed into a streak of light, its path as straight as a ruler, hardly affected by gravity or wind direction. As it flew, the arrow shaft rapidly spun and split evenly into five segments, each with a sharp point aimed at the same target.
The distance of over five thousand meters was covered in an instant.
The Dragon Lord, the moment Ji Xinghuo turned around and revealed the Spiritual String Song, saw everything with his True Eye and immediately sensed the danger, his expression changing drastically.
But Ji Xinghuo’s arrow was too fast for him to have any more of a reaction.
He could only allow Dragon Scales to materialize on the outside of his body.
The Canghuo Dragon, which was in hot pursuit at full speed, didn’t even notice the incoming arrow; instinctively following the Dragon Lord’s warning, it flapped its wings to climb higher, attempting to dodge.
However, the arrow, initially flying straight, also rose following the dragon, shadowing its movements with unmatched precision and striking the Canghuo Dragon’s neck.
The layer of White Flames surrounding it was immediately penetrated, followed by the Dragon Scales; like paper against what was harder than steel, they were torn open instantly, exposing flesh and bone and inflicting damage within.
In a split second, five Chain Arrows struck the same spot.
Bang bang...
A succession of explosions overlaid one another.
The Canghuo Dragon’s neck was pierced straight through, the final arrow passing through the hole to target the Dragon Lord on its back.
Initially, the Dragon Lord thought Ji Xinghuo’s target was himself, but upon realizing it was his dragon, he felt a momentary relief. He was completely unprepared for the actual final target still being himself, leaving him flustered by the double reversal.
Bang!
The arrow struck the Dragon Lord, tearing through White Flames’ protection and hitting his forehead.
Protected by Dragon Scales all over his body, the arrow exploded at the center of his eyebrows, releasing a burst of energy that sent a powerful current coursing through him, paralyzing his entire body.
Only then did the Canghuo Dragon let out a wail of agony as it rolled in the sky and plummeted down.
It was an Earthquake Level True Dragon, with a massive build.
Although its neck was pierced, the injury wasn’t fatal; its Recovery Power would soon heal it. However, the intense pain caused it to temporarily lose control and, unable to continue pursuit or even maintain flight, it fell.
The Dragon Lord was paralyzed only momentarily, and immediately used mental connection to soothe the Canghuo Dragon, easing its pain.
A few seconds later, the Canghuo Dragon regained stability.
With his face smeared with blood, the Dragon Lord’s expression was grim. By this time, Ji Xinghuo had once again flown far away, increasing the distance and no longer shooting arrows.
"Apocalypse weapon."
The Dragon Lord touched his forehead and looked at his blood-stained hand, a shiver running down his spine.
More than the power of the Apocalypse weapon, he was wary of Ji Xinghuo’s Archery Skill. Having True Eye, it had been a long time since he was last targeted, and although prepared for a remedial dodge, it was never needed.
Every twist was outside of his expectation, turning him into a mere target.
If that arrow had struck the Canghuo Dragon’s head, perhaps his True Dragon would already be a corpse.
Even he might have been killed.
The fact that this didn’t happen was clearly due to wariness of his status because behind him stood the Canghuo Family and the Dragon King!
"Hmph..."
With a darkened face, the Dragon Lord felt deeply insulted.
But he couldn’t pursue any longer, and could only watch as Ji Xinghuo flew further away, shrinking to a dot in the sky until he vanished.
"I, Canghuo Lieming, will remember you," the Dragon Lord watched in the direction Ji Xinghuo left, his gaze fiery, as if to etch Ji Xinghuo’s image deep into his mind, "a lowly subhuman from who knows where, daring to impersonate a True Dragon person, utterly ignorant of death!"
"Let’s go down."
Canghuo Lieming commanded his dragon to descend, seeing the bleeding hole in the Canghuo Dragon’s neck, his irritation grew.
The injury was not so serious, but it would require at least two months of recovery.
The dragon was the root of the Dragon Lord, so when the dragon was convalescing, the Dragon Lord had to stay by its side and couldn’t leave at will.
One reason was that splitting from the dragon reduced his strength, and the second was to comfort the dragon and prevent any rifts from forming.
Meanwhile.
Ji Xinghuo had already flown tens of kilometers away and, realizing the Dragon Lord wasn’t following, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then he thought back to that Chain Arrow just now, its lethality exceeding his expectations, worthy of an Apocalypse weapon.
If he had been intent on killing, he was more than eighty percent certain he could have slain the Dragon Lord.
"It’s not too late to turn back now."
Ji Xinghuo thought it over but ultimately shook his head.
He bore no grudge against that Dragon Lord, so there was no need for such extremes. Besides, killing a minion only to have the master appear would be the end of him if the Canghuo Dragon King got involved.
Impersonating a True Dragon person was a minor issue; the Canghuo Dragon King wouldn’t care.
But if he killed a Dragon Marquis, the Canghuo Dragon King wouldn’t sit idly by; even a Shepherd Star Saint would find escape difficult.
Yet, that single arrow had given Ji Xinghuo a great deal of confidence.
"With my speed, combined with the range and power of the Spiritual String Song, as long as the Dragon King doesn’t appear and I don’t get surrounded, I shouldn’t encounter many Dragon Lords in the True Dragon Dynasty who can threaten me. Even if I can’t defeat them, I can still flee."
Thinking this, Ji Xinghuo relaxed considerably.
He accelerated his flight, breaking through his usual speed. Invisibility failed, but his velocity continued increasing.
Without the "Sky-controlling Flying Shoes", he couldn’t reach Star Realm Sound Speed.
After racing for an hour.
Ji Xinghuo was over two thousand kilometers away from Cangdu and, aside from that Dragon Lord, he hadn’t been pursued.
He flew southward, leaving behind the Qingli Plateau where Cangdu was located.
Then, he turned eastward.
High in the sky, Ji Xinghuo slowed his flight speed. Below lay a vast range of mountains. Along the way, he deliberately avoided cities and settlements, as well as those Star Gate Cities, but he still frequently encountered other flyers.
