"Ivysaur, well done!"
Seeing the ten-thousand-year soul ring floating out not far away, Qingmu on Ivysaur's back immediately patted Ivysaur and said excitedly.
Although Evergreen's defense is very strong, it seems that Ivysaur in its ultimate state is still superior.
Next, all he needs to do is absorb the soul ring of this Ten Thousand Year Jade Shield Flower, and then he can become a true Soul Master.
"Da na!"
Ivysaur breathed a sigh of relief. That attack was its strongest attack yet, stacked with all the possible buffs. If even that attack couldn't break through Eternal Shield Flower's defense, then it would be helpless.
Then, Ivysaur led Qingmu toward the direction of Echeveria 'Variegata'.
Looking at the approaching fragments of the Azure Shield Flower, Qing Mu said with some regret, "No soul bone dropped. As expected, ten-thousand-year soul bones are not so easy to obtain."
Although the stronger the soul beast, the higher the probability of it dropping a soul bone, even for soul beasts that are over ten thousand years old, the probability of producing a soul bone is still pitifully low.
Otherwise, ten-thousand-year soul bones wouldn't be so rare, and even most titled Douluo wouldn't be able to collect a complete set of soul bones.
However, just as Qing Mu was about to summon and absorb the soul ring of the Ten Thousand Year Jade Shield Flower, a deafening dragon roar suddenly resounded throughout the environment.
The next moment, with a violent tremor, a soul beast that was four meters tall and more than ten meters long, covered with yellowish-brown scales, appeared in front of Qing Mu and Ivysaur.
Upon seeing the appearance of the soul beast, Qing Mu's expression changed drastically.
"An earth dragon!? It's actually this kind of spirit beast!"
Earth dragons are not true dragons, but a subspecies with dragon blood. Their appearance is more like that of Western dragons, and because they are of the earth element, they cannot fly and have no wings.
However, even though it is only a subspecies, in the Douluo Continent where dragons reign supreme, the strength of the Earth Dragon far surpasses that of ordinary soul beasts. It is difficult to find an opponent of the same level, and even soul beasts with higher age do not dare to directly fight it.
But that alone is not enough to make Qing Mu change color.
Because Ivysaur is currently at its peak, if a real fight breaks out, even a 20,000-year-old spirit beast would not be a match for it.
But what appears before Qing Mu now is a dragon king that is over 30,000 years old!
"Damn it, of all times..."
Qing Mu's expression was extremely ugly. The strength of the 30,000-year-old Earth Dragon King was already enough to contend with a Soul Saint. If Ivysaur were to fight against it now, its chances of winning would be extremely low!
No matter how powerful Ivysaur is, Qing Mu's current level is only level 40, which is equivalent to a soul beast level of at most four thousand years.
Four thousand years to fight a thirty thousand years old, and it's a powerful earth dragon at that—that's a huge leap.
Qingmu immediately gritted his teeth and ordered Ivysaur, "Ivysaur, we retreat!"
Although retreating now would waste the Soul Ring of the Ten Thousand Year Jade Shield Flower, the Soul Ring can be found later. Fighting this Thirty Thousand Year Earth Dragon King now would be truly unwise.
"Da na!"
Ivysaur knew that it was probably no match for that spirit beast, so it slowly retreated, trying not to attract the attention of the 30,000-year-old Earth Dragon King.
However, it was too late. The 30,000-year-old Earth Dragon King saw the scattered fragments of the Azure Shield Flower and roared angrily, rushing towards Ivysaur.
Although it was an earth dragon, the speed of the 30,000-year-old earth dragon king was unexpectedly fast. The earth-yellow energy under its feet condensed, as if it were divinely aided, and it caught up with Ivysaur in just a few breaths.
"What!?"
Qing Mu was shocked to see this, because Ivysaur was in a chlorophyll state at the moment.
Although Ivysaur isn't particularly fast for a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast, earth-type soul beasts are not known for their speed. Many ten-thousand-year-old earth-type soul beasts are even slower than thousand-year-old soul beasts. This thirty-thousand-year-old Earth Dragon King's speed is rather terrifying.
The shock in her eyes flashed by in an instant. Seeing the 30,000-year-old earth dragon getting closer and closer, Qing Mu lowered her head and said, "Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass!"
"receive!"
At this moment, the eight pale blue leaves on Ivysaur's back suddenly lit up with a faint blue light, and a thin beam of blue-white light shot towards the 30,000-year-old Earth Dragon King.
Crack!
When the ice light struck the 30,000-year-old Earth Dragon King, a thin layer of ice immediately condensed on its body.
However, in the blink of an eye, this thin layer of ice was shattered by the powerful earth-attribute energy of the 30,000-year-old Earth Dragon King, and had almost no effect.
"I'm sorry, the power of ice I can wield right now is still quite weak, this is all I can do," the consciousness of the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass said apologetically.
Although the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass was not 100,000 years old, its ice attribute energy was so strong that even Dugu Bo had some difficulty resisting it, so freezing the 30,000-year-old Earth Dragon King would not be a problem.
However, in order to merge with Ivysaur, most of his power was absorbed by Ivysaur, changing Ivysaur's physique.
The new Pokémon system has only just begun, and they have only learned one move, Ice Beam, and they are not yet proficient in it, so the power of their special moves is relatively limited.
"I understand, thank you for your help."
Qing Mu sighed. If he couldn't escape, he would have no choice but to fight this 30,000-year-old Earth Dragon King.
Although Ivysaur has moves like Toxic, Sunny Day, Photosynthesis, Leech Seed, and Crazy Plant, it's not without a chance of winning, but the odds are still very slim.
"If only this 30,000-year-old Earth Dragon King had arrived a little later, and absorbed the soul ring of the 10,000-year-old Jade Shield Flower, we wouldn't have been in such a sorry state when facing this 30,000-year-old Earth Dragon King."
Currently, Ivysaur has less than a 10% chance of winning a battle against a 30,000-year-old Earth Dragon King. However, if it absorbs the soul ring of a 10,000-year-old Jade Shield Flower, then the odds will likely be 40/60.
Because after absorbing the soul ring, Qing Mu can not only break through to the Soul Master level, but also greatly improve his survival ability, which will greatly increase Ivysaur's combat ability.
"roar!!!"
Just then, the 30,000-year-old Earth Dragon King arrived behind Qingmu and Ivysaur, extending its claws towards them.
"Da na!!"
Ivysaur naturally sensed the imminent danger, so it immediately turned around, and a large number of vines stretched out from under its flower bud, forming a wall of vines that separated them from the 30,000-year-old Earth Dragon King.
"hiss!!"
The 30,000-year-old Earth Dragon King's claw slammed into the vine wall formed by Ivysaur, leaving several deep claw marks on the vine wall, but these marks quickly disappeared as the vines extended.
The next moment, these vines seemed to transform into giant green hands, reaching out to grab the 30,000-year-old Earth Dragon King.
