Chapter 220 Half-Transformed Dragon

"I thought it was something else! Turns out it's a creature that was halfway through its transformation but realized it wasn't really related to the dragon bloodline. If this one were to appear, it would surely be affectionately called a 'half-transformed dragon' by the dragon race. There's no need to communicate."

"So this is the guardian beast of Longyuan?" Dugu Jianling gripped his sword tightly, preparing for battle.

Yun Muhan remained calmer, his eyes sharp as knives as he carefully observed the guardian beast's movements, searching for an opportunity to attack. He knew that against such a powerful opponent, any reckless action could lead to a fatal mistake.

He whispered to Dugu Jianling, "We have to attack its head and abdomen at the same time; those are its weak points."

The two quickly devised a battle plan, knowing that only by defeating the guardian beast could they approach the Dragon Crystal. The battle was about to begin, and Yun Muhan and Dugu Jianling displayed their exceptional combat skills and seamless teamwork.

Their movements were as coordinated as a dance, each step filled with power and purpose.

Although the guardian beast was powerful, it gradually showed signs of fatigue under the suppression of Yun Muhan's dragon soul and the continuous attacks of the two.

Yun Muhan's swordsmanship was sharp and precise, each swing aimed directly at the guardian beast's vital points, while Dugu Jianling moved nimbly around the guardian beast, searching for the best opportunity to attack.

Finally, through a perfectly coordinated attack, Yun Muhan successfully struck the guardian beast on the head, while Dugu Jianling pierced its abdomen with his sword.

This strike embodied all their strength and skill, and was the culmination of their countless combat experiences.

The guardian beast let out a deafening roar, its voice filled with pain and resentment, before collapsing to the ground, motionless.

After the battle, Yun Muhan and Dugu Jianling were panting heavily. Although their bodies were exhausted, their eyes shone with the light of victory. They knew that this victory was hard-won, a culmination of their wisdom and courage.

They carefully stepped onto the stone platform, reached out to touch the legendary dragon crystal, and felt the powerful energy contained within it.

The dragon crystal radiated a warm light in Yun Muhan's hand, pulsating as if it were alive. The power contained within this crystal far exceeded their imagination; it was not merely a cold stone, but a crystallization of the power of the ancient dragon race.

Yun Muhan gently touched the surface of the dragon crystal with his fingers. He could feel the power inside the dragon crystal flowing slowly, like blood flowing in a blood vessel, full of vitality and energy.

He knew that the value of this dragon crystal was immeasurable; it was not only a treasure, but also a key to the pinnacle of power.

Dugu Jianling could also sense the power of the dragon crystal, and his eyes were filled with awe and curiosity.

The two stood on the stone platform, quietly sensing the power of the dragon crystal, their hearts filled with anticipation for the future and a desire for power.

"This is the Dragon Crystal, its power... is simply incredible," Yun Muhan said softly, his eyes filled with awe.

Dugu Jianling nodded, his fingers lightly tracing the surface of the dragon crystal: "With it, our strength will experience a qualitative leap. But we must be careful; such a powerful item will surely attract countless covetous eyes."

Yun Muhan carefully placed the dragon crystal into a specially made container. This container could suppress the power of the dragon crystal and prevent its power from leaking out and causing unnecessary trouble.

"We need to leave here as soon as possible. The power of the dragon crystal might activate other mechanisms or attract other guardian beasts," Yun Muhan reminded him.

Dugu Jianling nodded in agreement, and they quickly left the stone platform, retracing their steps. However, just as they were about to leave the hall, a violent tremor occurred, and a commotion arose from the entrance of the cave.

“It seems we’re not the only ones who know about Dragon Crystal,” Dugu Jianling said warily.

Yun Muhan gripped his sword tightly, his eyes resolute: "No matter who comes, we cannot let them get the Dragon Crystal."

Yun Muhan and Dugu Jianling quickly concealed themselves, their movements swift and silent, like ghosts in the night. They knew that the upcoming battle would be a test of their wisdom and courage.

Soon, a group of well-equipped adventurers appeared in their line of sight, their target clearly also being dragon crystals. These adventurers walked with firm steps and were well-equipped, clearly not to be trifled with.

"It seems we have guests," Yun Muhan said in a low voice, his tone revealing a hint of calmness and determination.

He and Dugu Jianling exchanged a glance, both understanding each other's meaning. They decided to adopt an ambush tactic, using the cave's terrain and their familiarity with the environment to defeat the adventurers one by one.

The battle unfolded fiercely in the cave, where Yun Muhan and Dugu Jianling, with their tacit cooperation and excellent combat skills, successfully repelled wave after wave of enemies.

Their swords flashed in the cave, each swing filled with power and precision, and each dodge was perfectly timed, avoiding the enemy's attacks.

Finally, when the last adventurer fell, the cave returned to silence.

Although Yun Muhan and Dugu Jianling were exhausted, their eyes gleamed with the light of victory. They knew that the victory in this battle was not only due to their strength, but also to their strategy and courage.

Without lingering, they quickly left Longyuan and embarked on their journey back to Tianqi City.

After ensuring no other enemies were lurking, Yun Muhan and Dugu Jianling quickly cleaned up the battlefield, collecting some potentially useful equipment and supplies. They knew that this equipment might fetch more gold coins and amethyst at the auction.

As they embarked on their journey home, the two felt both excited and nervous.
