The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World

Chapter 26: Chapter 26: I am Probably a War Correspondent



Legend has it that dragons have a reverse scale.

Lin Yun could no longer remember in which novel he first saw this claim, but he hadn't expected the reverse scale to be located here.

Taking advantage of the battle between Daoist Master Huang Long and Huang Jiao, Lin Yun made his move on that scale.

Since this scale was the only one growing in the opposite direction, Lin Yun easily wrenched it out and pressed down on it, then placed a Golden Crystal Stone behind it.

According to the principle of the lever, applying force in this way meant that the point of contact between the dragon scale and the Golden Crystal Stone would bear a greater force.

With a push from Lin Yun, cracks started to appear at the base of the dragon scale, and after a few adjustments to the position of the Golden Crystal Stone, the reverse scale was successfully broken off by Lin Yun.

The scale wasn't large, just the size of a palm, and no wonder—it was probably the most vulnerable part of a True Dragon's defenses. Coincidentally, right beneath this reverse scale was exactly where the Dragon Whip Lin Yun was seeking lay hidden.

After pondering for a bit, Lin Yun suddenly understood why a True Dragon would have a reverse scale.

It was very likely for the convenience of mating, usually covered by the reverse scale.

Lin Yun fiddled with the reverse scale repeatedly, hence the Dragon Whip also became visible from the abdomen.

Ah, this...

Lin Yun always felt that he had become somewhat strange.

Other protagonists wouldn't go snipping at a dragon's whip upon seeing one right? How lacking in style that would be!

But since he was already here, and it was difficult to take meat from other parts, he might as well snip here.

The reverse scale was extremely sharp, and Lin Yun used it like a knife. With one cut, he separated it, thus saving the effort of repeated friction.

With this one cut, a few drops of dragon blood flowed out, but the wound quickly healed.

Dragon blood was golden, but Lin Yun had no intention of collecting it.

Speaking of which…

If dragon blood were edible, it would still be better to get it from somewhere else. Blood dripping from this spot would feel very strange to consume.

Having wrapped his spoils in cloth, Lin Yun hugged the dragon's body, preparing to find an opportunity to slip away.

At this time, Huang Jiao finally calmed down, no longer attacking randomly.

Daoist Master Huang Long breathed a sigh of relief, only to discover ripples surging on the wall and, following that, several figures entered in single file.

Seeing such a large dragon, the newcomers were all very excited. They also saw Daoist Master Huang Long and his Sea Dragon, Bai Jiaojiao, and the three demons' expressions changed as they quickly put distance between themselves and the four people behind them.

"Daoist Master Huang Long, what are you doing here?"

Elder Qing Yao from the Guanghan Palace said somewhat joyfully.

She and her junior sister Qing Yue had been tracking the White Sea Dragon. Although their cultivation levels were slightly weaker, along with Niu Xuan and Ma Jing of Shenxiao Gate, they still weren't a match for the White Sea Dragon. However, it would be different with Daoist Master Huang Long's presence.

Daoist Master Huang Long had initially planned to take the Dragon Ball and the Dragon Corpse and leave, to quietly make a huge fortune. Unfortunately, now that everyone was here, he had no choice but to explain, "I was just traveling through the Land of Death, seeking some opportunity for a breakthrough, when I unexpectedly encountered Flowing Sands.

Huang Jiao sensed this was fate, so we ended up here."

Bai Jiaojiao scoffed.

I trust you as far as I can throw you, all you humans are so deceitful.

But currently, she was at a disadvantage. Despite taking advantage of the humans' distraction to stealthily steal the Water Spirit Stone from Xuanwu's belly, which would allow her to continue fighting, the outcome of a real battle was still uncertain, and her two subordinates would most likely face a slim chance of surviving.

"That's right, for us of the Sea Dragon lineage, this is indeed a great opportunity. Let's be straightforward—one each. The dragon's body is intact, and the Dragon Ball should also be inside. You can choose one,"

Upon hearing this, Daoist Master Huang Long hesitated internally.

If it were merely the matter of a Dragon Ball or dragon body, he certainly wouldn't back down, but now, just one item had the chance to turn Huang Jiao into a dragon, so there was no need for him to fight White Sea Dragon to the death.

The White Sea Dragon too had cultivated for a thousand years, possessing a deeper foundation than him, and since they were on the same path, he knew well the allure a True Dragon held for a Sea Dragon. If he didn't agree to the proposal, White Sea Dragon would probably rather fight him to the death than back down.

However, Qing Yue suddenly interjected, "This demon still dares to be rampant, Daoist Master Huang Long, we will lend you a hand, capturing this demon. The Dragon Qi on her body and the entire dragon corpse can be yours."

As soon as these words were spoken, even Daoist Master Huang Long was tempted, but Ma Jing just glanced at Qing Yue, feeling this person must be an idiot.

Letting White Sea Dragon take away the Dragon Ball, so what if she becomes a True Dragon and the Demon Tribe's strength greatly increases in the future?

Isn't there still the Taiqing Daoist Temple people to count on?

However, once Daoist Master Huang Long's Huang Jiao becomes a True Dragon, it poses a great threat to them, the second and third-ranked Shenxiao Sect and Guanghan Palace.

If it weren't for the fact that an external enemy was present, making it unsuitable for them to block Daoist Master Huang Long from obtaining the opportunity, they'd have wanted to rush over to snatch it themselves. And now, Qing Yue was even offering such an outrageous condition, helping Daoist Master Huang Long to snatch all of the True Dragon's legacy.

No way, no way, there can't really be someone whose mind is only on exorcising demons, right?

However, just as he was about to voice his objection, Huang Jiao suddenly whipped up a storm of sand and attacked Bai Jiaojiao.

This was our big shot still negotiating, but the underling had already started the fight.

What to do now? Just fight, obviously!

Ma Jing almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

Young man, no respect for the rules.

This was forcing them onto the war chariot. In the midst of the war between the Human and Demon Races, they from Shenxiao Gate, being of the Righteous Path, couldn't possibly side with the Demon Tribe.

Once they made a move, wouldn't that fulfill Daoist Master Huang Long's wishes?

Daoist Master Huang Long: This, well, is quite sudden, I too didn't know Big Huang would be so brave today...

White Sea Dragon had long been wary of these humans, but she did not expect Huang Jiao to be the first to strike.

Being of the same Demon Tribe and also belonging to the Sea Dragon lineage, White Sea Dragon felt some pity for Huang Jiao, but since it had initiated the attack, she would not be blamed for her ruthlessness.

Though earth counters water, Bai Jiaojiao's realm was higher, and she countered by whipping up a thousand layers of waves throughout the tomb chamber.

Creating a thousand waves out of thin air was also a huge drain on Bai Jiaojiao's Spiritual Power, but it was meant to create a more favorable combat environment for her.

Fortunately, the tomb chamber was sealed, and the walls seemed to subtly enhance the Water Spirit, with water slowly rising in the chamber, quickly submerging up to the dragon claws.

Indeed, Bai Jiaojiao was prepared to go all out.

White Snake and Green Snake also understood their leader's resolve, revealing their true forms, and began casting Water Spells to fill the chamber with water.

They were going to transform the tomb chamber into an environment suitable for their battle.

Bai Jiaojiao was no exception, with a clear dragon roar, an eye-catching white Sea Dragon appeared in the tomb chamber.

Lin Yun, watching the White Sea Dragon's transformation, subconsciously thought how majestic the Sea Dragon was, and how cool it would be to ride it!

Men, all want to become Dragon Knights.

However, seeing the chamber filling with water, Lin Yun also realized this was his chance.

You fight, I'll slip away.

Yet, reaching the entrance where he had come in, when Lin Yun tried to move through the wall again, he suddenly hit the wall.

Good lord, could this place be designed to enter but not leave?
