.....

Over a hundred mineral nodes that had swarmed together to pounce on the three people's shadows were instantly subjected to millions of slash attacks, as thorough as a storm's baptism, penetrating every possible opening!!!

Bang!!!

A dull thud.

Like a flower cluster exploding.

Watch as that cluster of mineral nodes that had crowded forward in succession, piling up dozens of meters high, instantly shattered into dust-sized particles.

This wasn't Lu Ding's limit.

But it was the physical limit of these mineral nodes.

This was finer than minced meat.

Even finer.

There was no need for that.

However, Lu Ding still kept one intact mineral node.

The iron core ore exposed on the cave wall surface reflected light, contrasting with the darkness, making that hand appear like warm jade. The light gliding across the fingertips resembled the fleeting glow of a new moon for a moment, as Lu Ding raised his hand to grab the mineral node's head.

The mineral node's ugly face formed a stark contrast with that flawless hand.

Crack!!!!

Debris fell.

The mineral node's face shattered in Lu Ding's hand as if it were crispy noodles.

The only intact mineral node immediately lost all ability to resist.

Lu Ding gripped it and threw it against the cave wall without even looking back.

Bang!!!

A loud impact sound echoed as the mineral node was directly embedded into the wall.

The reason he kept it was for Zhan Tingzhou to observe and determine exactly who was helping the Earth Dragon Immortal.

Lu Ding's voice sounded along with the impact: "Earth Dragon Immortal, get out here!!!!!"

"You impudent brat, how dare you call my great name directly, die!!!!!"

The blood pool exploded.

Turbid yellow earth energy surged forth, staining the darkness. The surrounding hard cave walls instantly showed signs of melting like wax, this technique - Mountain and Ridge Melting!!!

As it approached Lu Ding.

A cold wind brushed by, the harsh winter was coming.

[Proud Snow Defying Frost Tree] manifested behind him, frost condensing into leaves.

Like countless cold, arrogant eyes and disdainful brows looking down from above, full of contempt.

As the leaves rustled, proud coldness was revealed, the harsh winter was coming.

The temperature in the cave plummeted dramatically, inch by inch of frost swayed and fell like snow. The turbid yellow earth energy froze mid-air, the turbulent blood pool turned into jagged solid ice.

Along with the Earth Dragon Immortal at the bottom of the pool, all frozen together.

Lu Ding pressed forward, delivering a straight kick.

Bang!!!!

The solid ice shattered, the terrifying force blasted the Earth Dragon Immortal's massive true form out of the ice, smashing it hard against the wall, causing the entire mountain to shake.

If this cave hadn't been repeatedly dissolved, solidified, and reinforced by the Earth Dragon Immortal.

It probably would have collapsed already.

But even though the Earth Dragon Immortal had reinforced the cave, spiderweb-like cracks continuously spread from the impact point across the wall behind him.

"Cough......"

A mouthful of blood along with internal organs was vomited out.

The Earth Dragon Immortal struggled with his body, supporting his head, trying to free himself from the deeply embedded wall.

But as soon as he moved.

Bang!!!!

Another heavy blow without any unnecessary words made the Earth Dragon Immortal clearly see that what Lu Ding wore on his feet were dyed lotus root fiber cloud-walking boots.

Brand new, not a speck of dust on them.

This kick.

Made his head, which had just been pulled out from the wall, sink even deeper.

The Earth Dragon Immortal struggled to look up, seeing the person before him standing with arms crossed, body slightly leaning forward, shifting his center of gravity to his foot, using only one foot.

Yet could press him down until he couldn't struggle.

Amid the pain, the Earth Dragon Immortal couldn't understand who this unfamiliar-faced person was - he shouldn't possibly have any enmity with such a powerful existence.

Shattered internal organs churned within his body, pushing blood upward, staying in his throat.

"You... who are you......"

The Earth Dragon Immortal spoke, the blood in his throat uncontrollably gushing out, staining the sole of Lu Ding's shoe.

He slightly frowned, chilling cold energy directly approached, ice frost climbing the surrounding cave walls fittingly.

Lu Ding didn't answer this question.

When he spoke, only two words.

"Wipe it."

His speaking again made the Earth Dragon Immortal feel humiliated while also awakening Zhan Tingzhou, who had fallen into stunned silence after watching the battle.

About Lu Ding's combat power, he had already prepared himself mentally.

After all, he had memories of his previous life.

But he never expected that Lu Ding would actually have a divine tree extraordinary phenomenon!!!!

Although previously, he had seen Lu Ding use the icy cold of [Proud Snow Defying Frost Tree] to instantly kill Zhong Fang, the director of Xiankong Town's 749 Bureau office.

But at that time [Proud Snow Defying Frost Tree] hadn't revealed its true form.

Zhan Tingzhou hadn't thought in that direction either.

As it turned out, Lu Ding's icy cold actually came from a divine tree extraordinary phenomenon.

In his previous life, Zhan Tingzhou only knew of three people who possessed divine tree extraordinary phenomena.

These three people respectively possessed Fusang, Wutong, and Yuegui.

Among these three, two were geniuses of Great Han.

Other than that, he had never heard of this kind of proud cold divine tree......

For a moment, urgency rose in Zhan Tingzhou's heart. Just because he hadn't seen something before didn't mean it wasn't good - he knew quality when he saw it!

He could judge how terrifying Lu Ding's divine tree extraordinary phenomenon was!!!

Thinking that Lu Ding actually had such a powerful extraordinary phenomenon, while his own Five-Colored Divine Light was still stagnant!

Zhan Tingzhou was anxious!!!

Without comparison there's no harm - the harm he was feeling now was too great!

Lu Ding sensed something and turned his head, looking at Zhan Tingzhou who was secretly competing with himself, causing his body to tremble slightly.

He asked puzzledly.

"Do you need to pee?"

Zhan Tingzhou:......

Feeling powerless, couldn't be bothered to explain.

"Never mind, you don't need to worry about me."

Fine then.

Lu Ding looked back at the Earth Dragon Immortal beneath his foot.

The previous atmosphere was tense, the Earth Dragon Immortal's emotions were strained.

But after Lu Ding just spoke that sentence to Zhan Tingzhou.

The Earth Dragon Immortal's emotions eased somewhat.

The pressure Lu Ding had given him earlier was truly too strong, so lofty he didn't dare look directly.

Facing this kind of person, the slightest carelessness could mean facing death.

After all, arrogant people don't care about others' lives, just like that mysterious 'Mechanism Master'.

The Earth Dragon Immortal didn't want to suffer humiliation while still not surviving.

Since bowing in humiliation meant death, and standing tall with dignity also meant death, then he'd rather die with dignity.

But when Lu Ding spoke, connecting with earthly energy.

The Earth Dragon Immortal's thoughts instantly changed. He immediately transformed into human form, raised his hand holding his golden-threaded sleeve, carefully wiping the blood stain from Lu Ding's shoe sole while speaking:

"Although I don't know what enmity exists between us, I beg you to spare me. I still have great vengeance unfulfilled..... As long as you can spare me, you can propose any conditions."

If forced to choose between dignity and revenge, then the Earth Dragon Immortal would definitely choose revenge!

This was his obsession, and the 'parental' responsibility toward children.

Earthworms are hermaphrodites. Although ordinary earthworms can't reproduce by themselves, the Earth Dragon Immortal isn't an ordinary earthworm, so he can be both father and mother, capable of reproducing by himself.

It's just that the fertility rate is pitifully low - only one litter in a lifetime, and that was ruined by Chen Yan's father.

Lu Ding reduced some pressure from his foot.

Leaning forward until his body rested on his knee, the coldness on his face gradually receded, but pride remained. His eyes carried an overwhelming arrogance, sharp and prominent.

"You're more pleasing to the eye like this now."

Lu Ding stood up and withdrew his leg.

The Earth Dragon Immortal felt somewhat awkward. Earlier he had purely sensed that the earth spirit energy on Lu Ding wasn't strong, knowing he wasn't very old.

So he had immediately called him an impudent brat.

"So you came looking for me to......"

By now, he could also see that Lu Ding had no intention of taking his life, at least temporarily. As for whether he would later, the Earth Dragon Immortal couldn't worry about that - after all, his life had already been promised to the 'Mechanism Master'.

If this person before him wanted it, then after he finished his revenge, the two of them could fight over it themselves.

Lu Ding cast a glance, responding to his words: "Cooperation. I can help you get revenge."

Another one who wants to help me get revenge?

As this first thought arose, the Earth Dragon Immortal felt something was off - is this the attitude for cooperation?

At least the Mechanism Master talked with me first before fighting....

You started fighting right away......

The Earth Dragon Immortal's expression looked somewhat strange: "You also want to cooperate with me?"
