96: Oppression from demigod!

These wings were covered in green feathers, each feather smooth as jade, emitting a captivating green glow.

The Azure Dragon flapped its wings, spraying countless green powders from them, which drifted towards the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon.

Upon contact with the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon, these green powders actually seeped into the gaps between its scales.

Within seconds, countless tiny green sprouts emerged from the gaps in the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon's scales, growing rapidly with the wind.

The green sprouts turned into saplings.

The saplings turned into small trees.

The small trees grew into large trees.

In just two minutes, countless large trees appeared on the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon's body.

"What kind of ability is this?"

Zhang Fan was somewhat stunned by what he saw.

He could clearly feel that the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon's aura was weakening at an alarming rate.

It was like a leaking tire, constantly losing air!

The Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon was indeed weakening!

Hua Xia was at the Golden Core Realm, only one realm lower than the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon.

Therefore, this move of hers consumed a large amount of the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon's life force.

But Hua Xia did not stop there; she activated the move again, continuing to draw and consume the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon's life force.

The Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon's life force continued to decrease, and its aura kept weakening.

The result was:

The powerful King of Monsters, the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon, was completely burned to death after being scorched by the Nine Netherworld Fire for ten minutes!

"It's dead already?"

Zhang Fan found it somewhat hard to believe.

He had originally thought it would take at least an hour to burn the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon to death, but it was dead in ten minutes.

What did that mean?

It meant that Hua Xia's attack had greatly weakened the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon!

"You two cooperated well!"

Grandpa Hua's voice rang out: "One attacked the soul, the other targeted the physical body, a perfect collaboration!"

"Now it seems, you two are indeed a match made in heaven!"

Hearing the old man's praise, Zhang Fan and Hua Xia exchanged glances.

Tengteng's eyes flickered, and she quickly turned her head away.

Was this... shyness?

Zhang Fan chuckled inwardly and proactively changed the subject to help her out:

"Grandpa Hua, how should we deal with the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon's corpse?"

"You decide!"

Hua Yunzhang said with a faint smile: "Come to the command center, I want to see you two!"

After the old man finished speaking, his voice fell silent and did not sound again.

"Let's go!"

Zhang Fan and Hua Xia exchanged glances and flew in front of the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon.

Hua Xia waved her hand, and the trees covering the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon's entire body withered, fell off, and dropped to the ground, re-exposing the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon.

At this moment, although the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon had no external injuries, its massive body had visibly shrunk by a large margin.

Just like a dried salted fish!

Zhang Fan took a sharp breath; he knew this was not caused by the Nine Netherworld Fire, as the Nine Netherworld Fire would not damage the body.

"What method was that move you just used?" Zhang Fan looked at Hua Xia.

Asking about someone's Talent Divine Power is a very presumptuous thing to do.

No one is willing to easily reveal their trump card to unrelated people.

Hua Xia, however, had no reservations and said: "My Talent Divine Power, Wood Domain, allows me to control all trees!"

"Including accelerating growth, ripening, withering, wilting, and controlling them in combat!"

"The move just now was called Qi Seed Parasitism. I use Congenital One Qi as a seed to parasitize the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon!"

"These Qi seeds will rapidly grow by absorbing the Congenital One Qi and life force within the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon's body as nutrients!"

"Thereby consuming the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon's Congenital One Qi and life force!"

"So that's how it is!"

Zhang Fan realized, praising: "This move is truly too powerful!"

"Most Monsters probably wouldn't last long before being completely drained and hollowed out, right?"

"More or less!"

Tengteng nodded slightly.

In fact, this move of hers was very, very effective against Monsters!

Monsters!

Especially higher-level Monsters, which tend to be larger in size, have no way to evade this attack.

Unless they possess special Divine Powers like Water Transformation or gasification.

But such Monsters are relatively rare; the vast majority of Monsters can only be parasitized by Qi seeds and have their Congenital One Qi drained!

Why could Hashirama easily subdue tailed beasts?

It was because his Wood Release was too effective against tailed beasts!

Hua Xia's Talent Divine Power was not Wood Release, but the effect was similar!

This was precisely the main reason why she, at the age of 21, was able to hunt down 11 Golden Core Realm Monster Lords!

Zhang Fan pointed at the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon and chuckled: "Grandpa Hua told us to dispose of it ourselves; you can put it away!"

Zhang Fan was unsure how much this King of Monsters' corpse could sell for.

Because in this world, no one except demigods could kill a King of Monsters.

Therefore, there were almost no King of Monsters being sold on the market.

But he knew that this corpse was definitely a priceless treasure!

Keeping it for personal consumption was one thing, but if it were sold...

It would definitely fetch a sky-high price, at least 1 billion starting, right?

Anyway, those Core Formation Realm and Golden Core Realm Titan Warriors would definitely be willing to spend all their fortune to buy the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon!

Hua Xia refused: "You do it; I was just assisting!"

"Alright then!"

Zhang Fan nodded and did not stand on ceremony with her: "Once I sell it, we'll split the money equally!"

Zhang Fan believed that with Hua Xia's status, she wouldn't lack food like King of Monsters or Monster Emperors.

What others considered a treasure was nothing to her.

Money was more practical!

Zhang Fan took out a storage bottle, stored the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon, and then flew towards the Life Wall with Hua Xia.

When they reached the Life Wall, they were greeted by the Titan Warriors' expressions of gratitude, adoration, and awe.

However, no one dared to casually strike up a conversation, because they didn't dare!

Zhang Fan and Hua Xia, who had jointly killed the King of Monsters, the Nine-Headed Serpent Dragon, were at least Titan Warriors above the Golden Core Realm!

Ordinary people wouldn't dare to casually greet such senior experts.

Thus, Zhang Fan and Hua Xia entered the Life Wall, went to the designated changing area, and changed their clothes.

Then they arrived at the beast tide command center and met the two old men.

"My dear grandson, come quickly!"

Zhang Xuanling waved from afar. After Zhang Fan came over, he pointed at Hua Yunzhang and introduced: "This is your Grandpa Hua!"

"Hello, Grandpa Hua!"

Zhang Fan quickly greeted him, while looking at him with respectful eyes.

Hua Yunzhang!

He was one of the demigods in the country, but at the same time, he was also known as the Protector God of War!

Because Hua Yunzhang was different from other demigods; he had made great contributions during the nation's efforts to rebuild its mountains and rivers.

Therefore, Hua Yunzhang held a very high position in the country and was deeply trusted and relied upon by the national leadership.

"You're a good lad!"

Hua Yunzhang smiled as he looked at Zhang Fan, casually tossing out a storage bottle and saying: "This little thing is for you!"

Zhang Fan caught the storage bottle and was about to decline when he heard the old man say: "Take it! This is a good item, very useful for you in gathering herbs and forming your Core!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Fan no longer declined and respectfully said his thanks:

"Thank you, Grandpa Hua!"

"From now on, we're family; there's no need to be so polite!"

Hua Yunzhang waved his hand, then suddenly looked at Zhang Fan with a half-smile, a hint of danger in his eyes:

"Lad, your grandpa told me that you seem to object to this marriage?"

"Why do you object? Do you not like my Tengteng?"

"Or is there something about her that makes you feel she's not worthy of you?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Fan suddenly felt his scalp tingle and a prickling sensation on his back.

Zhang Fan's heart tightened, and he immediately looked at the old man, only to find him composed and enjoying the show.

That old man is harming me!

How could you tell them such private matters?

Zhang Fan secretly cursed the old man for being unprincipled, but verbally, he quickly said:

"Grandpa Hua, you're joking!"

"Miss Tengteng is naturally beautiful, captivating, gentle and kind, intelligent and elegant, with a pure heart...

"How could a girl so rare in this world not be liked by a junior like me? I like her too much to dislike her!"

Hearing Zhang Fan praise herself so much, even though she knew it was flattery, Hua Xia was very happy, her lips curved into a smile, and two blushes appeared on her pretty face.

Hua Yunzhang glanced at his shy granddaughter and playfully scolded: "You've got a whole set of sweet talk; be honest, how many girls have you deceived?"

"No, no!"

Zhang Fan quickly denied it. He had had two girlfriends, but both of them had pursued him.

He truly hadn't deceived anyone!

"No? Hmph!"

Hua Yunzhang bared his teeth, a fierce glint in his eyes, and coldly snorted:

"What's going on with that girl from Vanke Riviera? You even got her pregnant, and you say no?"

Upon hearing this, Tengteng bit her lip and stubbornly turned her head away.
