Unlucky guy?
Darryl furrowed his brows when he heard that. He was not happy when it called him that, but he did not show it.
The next second, Darryl regained his thoughts and asked, "Where is the dragon ball?"
Three years ago, Donoghue was attacked by that same giant python. He fell down the cliff and died. At that time, Darryl had fallen by accident too. Darryl had been trying to track down the giant python for the next three years, but he could not find any trace of it.
He never imagined that the giant python had transformed into a scaled dragon when they met again three years later. It had also caused a phenomenon and was about to transform into a dragon.
"Dragon ball?"
The giant scaled dragon laughed when it heard that. "Young Man, three years have passed. Do you think I will still return the dragon ball to you?"
As it spoke, the giant scaled dragon looked conflicted as it continued to say, "We are fated to meet, so let me tell you the truth. After I swallowed the dragon ball, I combined it with my inner core. I managed to transform into a scaled dragon with the help of the energy from the dragon ball. I am about to transform into a dragon now. In other words, the dragon ball is now my inner core. I will die if I give you my inner core."
What?
Darryl was stunned, but he understood the situation very quickly.
It was all due to the dragon ball. No wonder the giant python's cultivation progress had been so quick.
"Young Man!"
Just as Darryl was deep in thoughts, the giant scaled dragon mellowed its tone. "I was about to transform into a dragon. However, a deviant person led a few ten thousand men to attack me and caused me severe injuries. If you can heal me and help me to transform, I promise to be your enchanted beast. What do you say?"
The giant scaled dragon was not willing to recognize Darryl as its master. It was about to transform into a dragon and would be able to leap into the clouds and the sky. Nothing in the world could control it then.
However, if it did not have a master, it would not be able to heal over a short period. By then, if Zhang Jue and his men were to catch up with it, the giant scaled dragon might lose its life.
Wow...
Darryl's entire body trembled when he heard that.
'A dragon enchanted beast; wouldn't I be invincible in the future? That is every cultivator's dream and deepest desire.'
However, the giant scaled dragon had sustained too many injuries. The success rate for healing was really slim. Even though Darryl had some knowledge about medicine and had cultivated the Infinite Elixir Manual, the giant scaled dragon was too unique and was about to transform into a dragon. Under such circumstances, even if Divine Farmer was there, he might not be able to do it, let alone Darryl.
"Let me handle Darryl. The rest of you, capture the giant scaled dragon alive!" Zhang Jue spoke coldly. Then, he exploded his internal energy and charged toward Darryl.
Zhang Jue thought it was equally important to kill Darryl and capture the enchanted beast. Both could not be delayed.
Charge...
The ten thousand followers rushed up toward the giant scaled dragon.
Darryl furrowed his brows discreetly when he saw that. However, he remained calm and shouted at Jewel. "Jewel, help the giant scaled dragon to block that group of men. Let me handle Zhang Jue first. I will then come and help you after that."
Then, Darryl activated his internal energy and went on to meet Zhang Jue.
Darryl was not worried that Jewel would be in danger. Even though the giant scaled dragon was injured, its power was still terrifying. Jewel would not be in danger if she stayed with it.
Jewel nodded and guarded beside the giant scaled dragon.
The giant scaled dragon was incredibly furious when he saw the men charged at it. "You devious humans, all of you deserve to die." It had planned to acknowledge Darryl as his master to retain his life. It never imagined that Zhang Jue would locate it so soon. It could not control itself anymore when it felt the pressure from Zhang Jue.
