Chapter 394: When the Glittering Dragon Sticks Up Her Curvy Butt—
After the Sui Long’s injuries improved significantly, Jié Jié brought it back to the Golden Land.
The Golden Land was safer, but the constantly exploding Critical Slime Mold also drew the attention of the Odd-Faced Tribe. They would often circle around the Sui Long or enjoy being blown away by the slime mold explosions.
At first, there were worries about their safety when interacting with the Odd-Faced Tribe, but after becoming familiar with them, all concerns vanished.
Every member of the Odd-Faced Tribe could wield a stick to knock away things several times their size and were as resilient as cockroaches, able to quickly burrow underground at the sign of lethal danger.
That flower-shaped cannon was carried away by the Odd-Faced Tribe using wooden pads, rolling it to the most important spot in their camp where it was treated like a holy relic.
Jié Jié entered the lower levels of the Golden Land. At this moment, the Glittering Dragon was ascending, clearly wanting to wander through the wilds.
The two dragons met each other head-on. Seeing the Glittering Dragon glaring, Jié Jié quickly transformed into a Sky Dog Beast, flipped open his silk bag, and raised a large gemstone he had discovered in the Flame King Dragon’s nest.
Ancient Dragons all loved collecting shiny things as dragon treasures, and the Glittering Dragon was no exception.
The Glittering Dragon’s gaze slightly tightened, lowering her head close to Jié Jié, revealing a hint of anticipation in her eyes.
At this point, if someone were to punch her in the eye socket, she’d surely roll on the ground crying loudly, right?
Though harboring such malicious thoughts, Jié Jié didn’t act on them but instead embedded the gemstone onto the gold on the Glittering Dragon’s face.
After finishing, he raised his head and keenly noticed something familiar stuck between the Glittering Dragon’s curled horns.
It was that spear with spiral patterns, now mostly covered by melted gold.
But… wasn’t it stuck on the ceiling?
Jié Jié touched the scales on the Glittering Dragon’s cheek, pondering. He lightly poked it, causing the Glittering Dragon’s head to lower even more.
With a light jump, he used his tail to brace against the ground, leaping high up, grabbing the spear and pulling it off.
But since the cannon had already bloomed, the spear was useless. If inserted this way, it would look like a hairpin.
He then reinserted the spear horizontally into the gap between the Glittering Dragon’s curled horns, piercing and securing the gold covering the large horn.
“Very good, let’s leave it like this!”
Jié Jié nodded satisfactorily, watching the Dì Mǔ Shén’s head rise again.
The Glittering Dragon stopped moving, seemingly not planning to enter the wilderness anymore, but instead began observing him again.
But now, there didn’t seem to be anything else to do? He just came down to check on the Glittering Dragon.
Initially, he planned to take Nana to the Gathering Demon Land as well, but unexpectedly, the Sui Long was severely injured and embarked on the critical path, needing his watch.
Speaking of which, he hadn’t seen the Explosive Frag Dragon that injured the Sui Long yet.
If he could acquire the form of the Explosive Frag Dragon, he could provide his own Sui Long with a reference for the critical path, like how hard the shell needed to be to withstand explosions.
Thinking about this, Jié Jié turned back, heading towards the exit to leave the Golden Land.
And the Glittering Dragon followed closely behind him, occasionally looking left and right.
“Are you coming out too?”
Jié Jié turned around and looked at the Glittering Dragon following him.
The Glittering Dragon tilted her head slightly and continued to follow him after Jié Jié took another step forward.
The cave entrance they used had been widened enough for large monsters to pass through, but it was still too narrow for the Glittering Dragon to squeeze through, requiring heat to melt it.
Jié Jié remembered something, moved from in front of the Glittering Dragon to her back, transformed into a Flame Sword Dragon, and grabbed the edge of her skirt.
The Glittering Dragon slightly turned her head and saw his action, revealing a look of disdain in the eye on the side she turned to.
Man, what a great gaze!
Jié Jié could feel the tail under the Glittering Dragon’s skirt starting to become restless, as if it wanted to give him a good swing.
Then—she indeed stuck up her butt.
The Flame Sword Dragon’s limb gripping ability was poor, and Jié Jié felt dizzy after spinning around, landing heavily on the ground.
Twisting his body sharply and rising up with a water splash, Jié Jié stubbornly came to the Glittering Dragon’s backside and grabbed her skirt armor once more.
This free ride, he was determined to take!
Seeing him cling to her skirt again, the disdain in the Glittering Dragon’s eyes grew stronger, making Jié Jié want to give her a thumbs-up uncontrollably.
But the Dì Mǔ Shén still complied, only increasing the violent turbulence while traveling through the rock layers, occasionally swinging her tail violently, forcing Jié Jié to bite her skirt to keep hold.
The bumpy journey passed quickly, and they re-entered the molten world of the Dragon Crystal Land.
Jié Jié slightly identified the direction, transforming into a Silver Fire Dragon and flying low. Soon, he arrived at the battlefield of the two Sui Longs from a month ago.
Many old traces were covered by new monster activities, but some were still vaguely visible, showing the direction the Explosive Frag Dragon initially left.
After determining the direction, Jié Jié proceeded forward. Being airborne, he could ignore the monsters encountered along the way, but the Glittering Dragon behind him had to confront them.
Looking back, he saw a Magma Dragon flying high with a large amount of lava, splashing around after hitting the ground.
No monster was a match for the Glittering Dragon. If blocked, she would simply lift her skirt and swing it, sending anything hiding in the lava flying along with the lava itself.
The Glittering Dragon made a lot of noise while moving; just walking would crush the rock layers on both sides with her golden skirt, producing loud sounds.
Not overly concerned about the occasional racket caused by the Glittering Dragon, Jié Jié continued gathering traces on the ground, occasionally scanning the surroundings with energy perception.
A month had passed, destroying most of the traces, but if the Explosive Frag Dragon was still active in this area, new traces would appear.
The slime mold on the walls caught Jié Jié’s attention. Looking further, he soon saw more slime molds, indicating that the Explosive Frag Dragon was indeed nearby.
“Boom!!!”
The thunderous sound from behind made Jié Jié instinctively turn around, seeing the Glittering Dragon’s tail-swinging motion stop. When her tail dragged away, it revealed a small volcano crushed and exploded.
Before he could scold the Glittering Dragon for reckless destruction, he sensed an entity entering the range of his energy perception. Due to obstacles, its shape was somewhat blurry, but it was clearly a beast-dragon kind of monster.
It seemed to have heard the commotion and was heading this way.
“Good job, keep it up!”
Jié Jié immediately gave the Glittering Dragon a thumbs-up.
The outline of the energy source became clearer as it approached, the footsteps gradually becoming distinct until it entered their line of sight.
What a magnificent Sui Long, surpassing the usual ones. The originally deep blue shell was exceptionally dark, turning into a dull black-green color with numerous spiky protrusions. Sticky critical slime mold mycelium covered its surface, shimmering faintly.
There was no doubt that this was an Explosive Frag Dragon that completed the critical path.
It was the one that injured his own Sui Long, causing it to be contaminated with critical slime mold and embark on the critical path as well.
Its gaze locked onto him flying in the air, seemingly viewing the Glittering Dragon behind him as a mountain of gold rather than a monster?
Jié Jié took a deep breath.
