”Seventh Rank Advanced Vein Demon: Two-tailed Dragon Scale Crocodile?”

Yun Xiao dodged while muttering these words, thinking to himself that a single Seventh Rank Advanced Vein Demon wouldn’t make him too apprehensive.

As he avoided the massive strike from the Vein Demon, Yun Xiao recognized the creature’s details—it was a Seventh Rank Advanced Two-tailed Dragon Scale Crocodile.

The so-called Two-tailed Dragon Scale Crocodile was covered in scales resembling those of a crocodile but was several times stronger, hence the name ”Dragon Scale”. Although it was far inferior to real dragon scales, the mere inclusion of the word ”dragon” suggested how tremendous its physical defensive power might be.

What appeared even stranger was that this creature had not just one tail but two, branching out from somewhere on its body. How it evolved into this form or whether some mutation had occurred were unknown.

”Chi Yan, I’ll hold off its jaws, you attack its tail!”

Upon realizing it was a Seventh Rank Advanced Vein Demon, a surge of combativeness exploded within Yun Xiao. His shoulder twitched as Fire Cloud Rat Chi Yan flew out, rapidly growing in size amidst the wind.

Facing the Seventh Rank Advanced Vein Demon, Chi Yan dared not slack off. Despite his transformed state, he could only match up to a Seventh Rank Intermediate Vein Demon at best.

However, with Yun Xiao’s assistance this time, Chi Yan was aware that though on the surface his companion seemed only a Qi Seeking Realm Early Stage cultivator, his combat strength could, if unleashed, probably overwhelm even some Seventh Rank Intermediate Vein Demons. Taking on this giant creature two against one might just work.

To be honest, during the Spirit Fighting Conference, it had mainly been Golden Snake Worm, Red Feather, or the Three-legged Ice Crystal Toad doing the fighting, leaving Yun Xiao itching for action. So, let this Two-tailed Dragon Scale Crocodile satisfy that urge.

If outsiders knew that a mere human youth at the Qi Seeking Realm Early Stage yearned to have his fill of fighting a Seventh Rank Advanced Two-tailed Dragon Scale Crocodile, their jaws would likely drop to the floor.

A Seventh Rank Advanced Vein Demon might even be more formidable than a human cultivator at the Qi Seeking Realm Late Stage, especially in terms of physical strength. In close combat, no human cultivator of the same rank would dare to face it head-on.

Yet, the youthful Qi Seeking Realm Early Stage combatant avoided the bite force but didn’t retreat. The next moment, he leaped up and unleashed a fierce punch right at the forehead of the crocodile head.

Clang!

The swift punch took the Two-tailed Dragon Scale Crocodile completely by surprise, and the next moment, a loud metallic clash echoed where Yun Xiao landed his punch.

”This big guy’s skin is really thick!”

Seeing that the crocodile head hadn’t even left a mark, Yun Xiao couldn’t help but feel amazed. His current physical strength might not be much less than that of some Seventh Rank Intermediate Vein Demons, yet his attack had been ineffective.

At this moment, Yun Xiao seemed to have overlooked one thing; the Two-tailed Dragon Scale Crocodile was renowned for its physical strength. Attacking with physical force was clearly playing to the enemy’s strengths.

”Ga!”

As Yun Xiao pondered, his punch seemed to have some effect after all, as he evidently enraged the Two-tailed Dragon Scale Crocodile, which issued a bizarre roar of fury.

Bang!

Simultaneously, the enlarged Fire Cloud Rat Chi Yan slammed its paw fiercely on the crocodile’s tail, but at that critical moment, the crocodile’s two tails lifted incredibly fast, forming a huge scissors-like shape and aiming to clamp down on Chi Yan’s rat body.

Seeing this, a hint of shock flashed in Chi Yan’s eyes. Having already tested the giant creature’s strength, he naturally wouldn’t let himself be caught between its tails, as that would undoubtedly lead to severe injuries.

Chi Yan’s speed was exceptional; he dodged before the tails could clamp shut and then struck another tail with a loud crash.

Thus, within the waterfall, this absurd battle unfolded. Perhaps even the Two-tailed Dragon Scale Crocodile felt a bit vexed.

If this human and this mouse could be quickly dealt with, the Two-tailed Dragon Scale Crocodile wouldn’t even consider them a disturbance. However, as the fight progressed, it grew increasingly alarmed. When had human combat strength become comparable to high-rank Vein Demons?
