Chapter 216 Unable to bite the dragon scales, nor the dragon whiskers
When Zhulong appeared, both Bixie and Tianlu were startled.
"Oh no, Bixie, this snake is so big! We don't think we can beat it..."
"Tianlu, it's no longer a question of whether we fight or not, but whether the other side will let us go."
At this moment, Bixie also regretted his impulsiveness. If they had known that Zhulong was so powerful, they would not have been so reckless.
The four-legged creature quickly blew out a lucky cloud and jumped onto it, urging, "Little Plum Blossom, Little Blue Circle, hurry...go...on..."
"Where do you think you're going!" Zhulong snorted coldly, instantly shattering the auspicious clouds beneath the feet of the Four-Unlikes.
Fortunately, the auspicious cloud was not high off the ground, otherwise the four-legged creature would probably have been injured.
Just then, Zhulong leaned down to look at Bixie and Tianlu, and whispered, "Who are you? How dare you be so arrogant here and disturb my sleep? State your names."
Although Tianlu was afraid, he still mustered up his courage and shouted at Zhulong, "I am a Pixiu named Tianlu, this is my brother Bixie, and he is the Four-Unlikes."
After sensing the strength of Tianlu and the others, Zhulong said disdainfully, "Pixiu? Never heard of it. What brings you here?"
"Is that even a question? I'm here to kill you! My brother is sick, and I need to take your flesh to feed him!"
Tianlu was going all out at this moment. After exchanging a glance with Bixie, their bodies grew larger together.
Even though Bixie and Tianlu have returned to their original sizes, they still appear tiny compared to Zhulong.
"Damn it, if only I and Bixie could also use the Law of Heaven and Earth like Haochen."
While observing Zhulong, Tianlu searched for a way to break the deadlock.
When Zhulong heard Tianlu say that he had come to kill him, he burst into laughter as if he had heard a joke.
Tianlu was confused by Zhulong's laughter: "What are you laughing at?"
"Hahaha, even the Heavenly Emperor wouldn't dare say he could kill me. You insignificant ants and beasts dare to spout such arrogant words. How amusing!"
Perhaps Zhulong felt life was a bit boring, because when he heard Tianlu's disrespectful words, his first thought was not to destroy Tianlu and the other beasts that disrespected him.
Instead, he said to Tianlu with great interest, "If you have the ability to take my flesh, feel free to try!"
As Zhulong spoke, the hot air scorched his face, and Tianlu felt threatened even though he was only passively reacting.
But having already uttered those harsh words, and being a mythical beast named Pixiu, how could he possibly retreat without a fight?
Tianlu secretly cheered himself up, but on the surface he still pretended to be full of confidence and said, "You said it, so I won't hold back!"
"I'm here, prepare to die, Old Dragon!"
Tianlu made a bold statement about hunting down Zhulong, and decisively charged towards Zhulong, leaping onto its back in one go.
Zhulong completely disregarded Tianlu, letting it charge towards him and bite him.
Tianlu initially thought that Zhulong underestimated him, but since Zhulong neither attacked nor defended, this gave him an opportunity. As long as he brought back a piece of meat for Haochen, his trip would not have been in vain.
The idea was beautiful, but the reality was harsh; Tianlu bit down on Zhulong's belly.
But the next moment, Tianlu seemed to hear a "crack" sound, followed by a sharp pain in his tooth.
"Wow?! What kind of scales are these? They're so hard! I can't bite them at all, there's not even a scratch!"
Tianlu let out a strange cry and immediately jumped back, trying to dodge Zhulong's next attack.
However, he couldn't even break through Zhulong's defenses. Zhulong didn't suffer the slightest damage and just stood there, letting Tianlu attack him.
After Tianlu attacked several times, he discovered that Zhulong's body was covered with incredibly hard scales, which he couldn't bite at all.
Zhulong looked at Tianlu, who was at a loss, and sneered: "What, you didn't want to eat me? Why don't you do it? What's the use of just smacking your mouth?"
"Calm down, calm down, don't panic."
Tianlu's mind raced, his eyes scanning Zhulong intently: "He must have a weakness. If brute force isn't enough, then we need to think of another way."
"Heh, you ignorant little beast, you're amusingly stupid. I've got some free time today, so I'll play with you a bit."
Hearing Zhulong's taunts, Tianlu wasn't as angry as before. Instead, he thought that Zhulong seemed to disregard him, which was a good opportunity to find his weaknesses.
Just then, Tianlu noticed Bixie sneaking up behind Zhulong.
Just as he discovered Bixie, Bixie pointed to the two swaying dragon whiskers on Zhulong's face.
"The only parts without scales are the eyes and the beard."
Tianlu understood Bixie's implication and continued to attack Zhulong. Even if he couldn't break through Zhulong's defenses, he wanted to attract Zhulong's attention and create an opportunity for Bixie.
Perhaps due to overconfidence, or perhaps because Zhulong simply didn't take Tianlu and the others seriously, they hadn't even noticed that one of them was missing.
"Give up, you ignorant little beast. My body is not something you can shake."
"That's not necessarily true. Underestimating us brothers will only lead to trouble."
Suddenly, a red figure darted out from behind the Candle Dragon and bit off one of its whiskers.
"Successful!"
Tianlu was very pleased to see that Bixie had successfully obtained Zhulong's whiskers, thinking, "Let you underestimate us brothers."
Seeing that Zhulong seemed not to have recovered from the shock of his whiskers being bitten off by Bixie, Tianlu decided to go all out and, taking advantage of Zhulong's momentary lapse in concentration, rushed forward and bit off another of Zhulong's whiskers.
"Got it, Bixie, run!"
Tianlu hadn't expected things to go so smoothly, and immediately told Bixie to hurry up and leave.
Zhulong finally snapped out of his daze after his whiskers were bitten off: "Huh? My whiskers? Gone, my beautiful whiskers are gone, gone..."
Tianlu had no idea that what Zhulong cared about most was his beautiful beard.
His actions, along with Bixie's, happened to touch a nerve with Zhulong, enraging him.
Tianlu and Bixie ran to Sibuxiang's side with Zhulong's whiskers, and threw the whiskers to Sibuxiang: "Sibuxiang, take Zhulong's whiskers and go first, Bixie and I will hold Zhulong off!"
"What? What are you going to do then?"
After saying this, Si Bu Xiang realized that now was not the time to waste time.
So, the Four-Faced Beast placed one of its whiskers on its back, held another in its mouth, and mumbled, "Little Plum Blossom, I'll go hide the whiskers first and then come back to pick you up."
"Four-Unlikes, don't worry about us! Your clouds are freezing over, hurry up and go!"
But before the Four-Unlikes could leave, the Candle Dragon's tail lashed out instantly, so fast that before Bixie and Tianlu could react, it struck the Four-Unlikes.
With a loud "smack," the Four-Faced Beast was sent flying, crashing heavily to the ground and losing consciousness, blood flowing from its mouth and nose.
"The Four Unlikes!"
"The Four Unlikes!"
Bixie and Tianlu were terrified and staggered to Sibuxiang's side.
Looking at the lifeless, unresponsive Qibixiang on the ground, Bixie was bewildered, his mind filled with memories of his time with the Qibixiang.
"How dare you hurt the Four-Unlikes! I won't let you get away with this! Die!" Pixie roared at Zhulong with bloodshot eyes and charged forward.
Even if Bixie gets angry, he can't bridge the gap between him and Zhulong; Bixie comes quickly but goes back even faster.
However, after being attacked by Zhulong again, Bixie stood up as if nothing had happened and launched another attack on Zhulong.
He was sent flying by the Candle Dragon's whip, got up and continued to attack, was sent flying again, got up and attacked once more...
Countless times, Bixie eventually exhausted himself and was whipped by Zhulong's tail, ending up next to the Four Unlikes.
However, Zhulong realized something was wrong. After all, he knew his own attacks well. Normally, divine beasts couldn't withstand his attacks, but Bixie only fainted after enduring so many of them.
"There is a force protecting this little guy, preventing him from getting hurt."
A golden light flashed in Zhulong's eyes, as if trying to see through the power within Bixie's body.
But after looking for a long time, Zhulong couldn't figure it out and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
"I never expected you were going to take my beard. I underestimated you."
"That's enough for now. None of you can escape today. Go to the underworld and apologize to my beard." As Zhulong spoke, he opened his mouth and spat out a blazing flame.
"Ouch! It's so hot..."
Because Zhulong was attacking the Four Impermanent Ones, Tianlu didn't hesitate and used his own body to block them.
"Wake up, Four-Faced Beast! I can't hold on any longer!" Tianlu kept calling out to Four-Faced Beast and Bixie.
"Tianlu, you can't hide! If you hide, the Four-Unlikes and the Evil-Repelling Beast will be burned alive." Until the very end, Tianlu persisted with sheer willpower.
And Zhulong seemed to have had enough fun, so he stopped the flames.
Before Tianlu could even rejoice, Zhulong opened its enormous mouth and swallowed them whole: "Oh no!! We're going to be eaten!"
Just as Zhulong swallowed Bixie, Tianlu, and Sibuxiang, a black figure instantly appeared in his abdomen.
"This is the moment we've been waiting for! The universe and all paths—a thousand worlds destroyed! Die, Zhulong!"
