Chapter 4378: 5.0130 Out of Control
This black dragon was in a semi-soul state; swords and blades slashing at it were completely useless against its half-corporeal form.
Everyone could only continuously attack with spiritual power, but nine out of ten times, they were repelled by its immense sacred power.
It was almost impossible to move an inch.
Mo Lian's eyes were deep and cold as he stared at the black dragon before him. With a wave of his hand, several streams of pitch-black flames fluttered down, landing on the black dragon.
Like bursting fireworks, they spectacularly exploded on the black dragon's translucent soul body.
The black dragon was already being battered by the mermaid pearl, nearly scurrying away with its head in its paws. Now, immobilized by the mermaid pearl's light and struck by the sacred power thrown by Mo Lian and the others, its semi-soul body became even more ethereal and dispersed, flying somewhat precariously.
Upon seeing this, many merfolk immediately cried out and surged forward. "Quick, it's about to collapse! Prepare! Prepare the seal pearl, and seal it again! Ahhh!"
Like a dying struggle, the black dragon suddenly dove down, spraying a furious bolt of lightning at the clamoring merfolk.
The attack immediately scattered the group, sending the merfolk tumbling, crawling, and screaming as they dispersed.
The mermaid pearl's moist, serene light enveloped the ground, emitting a pure, flawless, transparent glow.
At this moment, the black dragon, tightly ensnared by the halo, let out roars and angry cries, as if extremely unwilling. Its dragon eyes were wide open, and its tail thrashed and swayed.
The pure white light tightened around the black dragon's ethereal body, gathering and enveloping it.
"Not good, the Ten-Thousand-Year Mermaid Pearl is going to absorb the black dragon!"
"Clan Leader!"
"Clan Leader!" The merfolk cried out anxiously, "What do we do now?"
"What do you mean, 'what do we do'? That mermaid pearl was originally our Forgotten River Mermaid Clan's sacred artifact, and the black dragon is also a suppressed guardian beast!"
"Right, right, let the mermaid pearl absorb the black dragon. As long as the Crown Princess returns the mermaid pearl to us..."
"Ah!!" Qiao Mu, whose Divine Void Realm felt as if it were tearing apart, suddenly let out a long roar heavenward.
At the same time, the mermaid pearl, radiating sacred white light, abruptly constricted, engulfing the entire black dragon. With a whoosh, it shot out and flew into the little stoic's mouth.
"Qiaoqiao!" Mo Lian and the others ran over, their faces pale with shock.
But they saw Qiao Mu raise a white light in her hand, and like a thunderous mountain-splitting strike, it cut a deep chasm in front of her, blocking Mo Lian, Feng Chen, and all the others.
Qiao Mu, at this moment, seemed to have entered a berserk state. Her eyes were blood-red, with no one reflected in them.
She turned around, her scarlet eyes filled with murderous intent, staring at the terrified merfolk before her.
Long Qian's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly cried out, "Quick! Scatter!!"
At the same time, the formidable power of the Thunder Sword, carrying terrifying lightning, swept towards the merfolk with a resounding boom.
The explosive force scattered, sending several merfolk in the front row flying backward, crashing heavily to the ground.
They clutched their chests, spitting blood in unison.
"Qiao, Qiao Mu!" Long Hui shouted in alarm.
Young Master Ding's expression changed slightly, and he quickly dodged away, his eyes flickering as he paused to look at Qiao Mu.
The latter, panting and pausing her movements, slowly raised her head, her gaze cold and distant as she swept it over Long Qian and the others.
Long Qian's heart pounded.
Long Hui instinctively tightened his grip on his long sword, stammering, "Cousin, Cousin, calm, calm down!"
Qiao Mu held her sword, her eyes vacant, as threads of water spiritual power gathered on the blade. In an unstoppable surge, it tore through the air and ground towards Long Qian and the others.
