Beauty and the Bodyguard

"Hehe, that's a good name. Alright, this can be considered my flood dragon form." Lin Yi accepted the advice and didn't waste any more time talking to this guy. He immediately pounced on the brain-eating insect. After all, there was a time limit to his dragon form. He didn't have to worry about Qi consumption, but he couldn't make up for the spirit sense consumption. So he estimated that 15 minutes was his limit. If he couldn't kill the brain-eating insect in this time, the consequences would be unimaginable.

In fact, with Lin Yi's extremely pragmatic style, if it wasn't for the fact that it was his first time being in the Dragon form and he wasn't very familiar with it yet, he wouldn't even give his opponent time to waste on these two words. He would definitely beat him to death without a second thought, regardless of whether he would kill or injure him, leaving the rest for later.

"Hehe, you want to play close combat with me? I'm the ancestor of close combat. Do you really think I'm afraid of you?" The brain-eating insect was so angry that it laughed instead. It was caught off guard and suffered a big loss, but if it was a close combat fight, there was no other spirit beast better than it. It was the ultimate weapon of all kinds of spirit beasts from the beginning to the end, so what if Lin Yi turned into a Dragon?

Before he finished, the brain eating insect's snake body moved. It only had two steel claws, and Lin Yi had bitten off one, but it suddenly grew six more. It looked like it was about to turn into a centipede!

Lin Yi didn't pay attention to it. He was in the Dragon's form now, and it seemed like even his own heart was affected. He was a lot more indifferent than usual. He thought that the brain-eating insect was shocking and troublesome, but now that he was in dragon form, he looked at it with a look of disdain.

It was a kind of unspeakable contempt, just like a high-level spirit beast facing a low-level spirit beast. No matter how the other party called out, it would not really take it to heart. The reason was simply because it was not qualified.

"Go to hell!" The brain-eating insect was completely infuriated. This kind of look had always been exclusive to it. When had it ever been looked at like this by others?

The brain-eating insect waved its steel claws and pounced over. At least on the surface, its strong body did have the advantage, but reality was cruel. Whether it was the steel claws, tail spikes, or wings, nothing gave it an advantage. Instead, it was knocked down by Lin Yi's Tail Sweep in less than a second and fell into the mud again.

The brain-eating insect still didn't believe it. It suffered a loss before because it was caught off guard, and now it suffered a loss because it didn't understand the other party's routine. Again!

This time, it was even more heavily injured. Not only did it lose another claw, but even its most threatening tail was broken. The poison on it had no effect on Lin Yi at all. It was just a decoration.

Crushing! It was a completely one-sided crushing!

Duanmu Yu was completely speechless at this crazy scene. The brain-eating insect didn't believe it time and time again, but it ended up getting beaten more and more miserably by Lin Yi's dragon form. In the end, three of its eight steel claws were broken, and the last one was shaking. Its poisonous tail was gone, and one of its wings was broken. Its body was covered in wounds, and it was miserable.

Duanmu Yu was starting to pity the brain-eating insect. It was supposed to be an invincible existence, but it met Lin Yi, who was a heaven-defying existence that couldn't be measured with common sense. The torturer had become the victim. Did this guy not check the Almanac before leaving?!

Indeed, the brain-eating insect didn't look at the Almanac. In this ancient Land of Trials, it was an existence that was second only to one person and above tens of thousands of people. The feeling of not looking at the Almanac when going out would only appear on others, not it. Today was really an accident.

It was too horrible to look at, but the brain-eating insect still struggled to fly up, its vitality was extremely tenacious.

"You can fly with one wing? What a talent!" Lin Yi couldn't help but give it a thumbs up, but he didn't hold back at all. With a single breath, he destroyed the only remaining Steel Claw and wing.

The brain-eating insect fell into the quagmire again. It was still majestic and domineering before, but now it had completely turned into a Loach. A Phoenix was not as good as a chicken, nothing more.

"Impossible! That was impossible! That's impossible!" The brain-eating insect was still struggling in the mud, but both its wings were broken, and it couldn't fly anymore. Close combat was its proudest ability, and it was invincible in the entire ancient testing grounds. After all, even the Lord didn't do this, but it didn't expect to be killed by Lin Yi today, and in the way it was best at, just like that!

"Is there a need to be so disappointed after losing to a flood Dragon? Just how confident are you?" Lin Yi couldn't help but be happy. Even he didn't expect the Dragon to have such strong physical strength. He couldn't help but sigh. The Dragon race was indeed an invincible existence in the spirit beast World. This race's talent was heartless!

Of course, it wasn't entirely because of the Dragon's strength that it could form such a one-sided suppression. Another important reason was that it wasn't a pure physical body, but a half-primordial divine body that relied on the fusion of primordial spirit and spiritual Qi. Every claw and every bite seemed to be a simple physical attack, but the main body was actually the extremely profound killing intent of the five elements and Eight Trigrams. It naturally had the upper hand in a simple physical fight like the brain-eating insects, so it wasn't surprising that it could form a suppression.

"My physical body is invincible. Even the Dragon race can't be my match. Absolutely not!" The brain-eating insect was still hypnotizing itself. Except for a few spirit beasts with a long bloodline, the dragon clan was the mountain in the heart of every spirit beast. Most of them were just willing to bow their heads, but the brain-eating insect never thought so.

Even if it couldn't surpass the dragon clan, it should at least be one of the few, at least that's what it thought.

But today, Lin Yi's bloody reality shattered its fantasy. Even a Phantom flood Dragon could torture it like this, let alone a real Dragon. One must know that flood Dragons were only close relatives born from the cross-breeding between the Dragon race and the snake Race. They were far from being considered real Dragons!

"He's already been beaten into a mudfish, yet he's still so stubborn. He's really tenacious." Lin Yi shook his head. As far as he was concerned, the brain-eating insect was a powerful spirit beast, and with its innate talent of eating brains, it might become a big crocodile on Sky Class islands, but there was still a big gap between it and the real top-tier spirit beasts. If it had seen the Azure Dragon and Vermillion Bird with its own eyes, it wouldn't be so ignorant.
