Dijiang-hao flew across the sky at extreme speed. Zhang Che used the satellite positioning system to determine his location, and less than two hours later, arrived in the southern seas of Bangziguo.

“According to the information on the internet, I should be only a few hundred kilometers away from where the Silver-Horned Flood Dragon is active.”

After confirming his position, Zhang Che had to find a place to park Dijiang-hao. However, the aircraft wasn’t very big, and could move vertically like a helicopter. Finding a place to land really wasn’t anything difficult.

Sweeping his gaze over the coastal lands below him, Zhang Che soon found a small island only a few kilometers wide and piloted Dijiang-hao over to land there.

Dijiang-hao was unlike the more common commercial planes. Its outer body was formed with large amounts of purple-gold crystals and other rare minerals. Even if the ground wasn’t flat, landing there wouldn’t cause any damage.

Of course, Dijiang-hao wouldn’t be able to take off via gliding afterwards, and would have to expend large amounts of energy. However, that tiny bit of energy was nothing for Zhang Che. He owned a pile of fire crystals, enough for him to use until Dijiang-hao’s parts were aged and worn. That little bit of fuel didn’t matter to him.

After successfully landing on the little island with scarce vegetation, Zhang Che exited the aircraft and summoned the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon out with a wave of his hand.

Zhang Che had targeted the Silver-Horned Flood Dragon precisely because the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon was a water-type exotic beast. With his strength, the dragon could easily hunt that wild exotic beast, with no fear of it escaping!

If Zhang Che didn’t have the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon, it wouldn’t be easy for him to hunt a water-type exotic beast, no matter how strong he was. After all, a water-type could directly dive into the sea upon seeing the situation was disadvantageous to them. Unless Zhang Che could turn the sea over, he had no choice but to watch as his prey got away.

“Work hard. When we find that Silver-Horned Flood Dragon, I only want a few of its ribs. You can have all the other parts as your supplement.”

The Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon immediately became spirited after hearing Zhang Che’s promise, and let out a long cry in acknowledgment. He quickly flew in the direction Zhang Che pointed.

Although they knew roughly where the Silver-Horned Flood Dragon was, they were surrounded by the sea, after all. Finding it wouldn’t be easy.

Zhang Che could only pray his luck wasn’t too bad. He didn’t want to stay here for a long time. Although the people from Bei Mei region might not know he came here, Zhang Che decided to stay here for only twenty-four hours at most in order to prevent any unwanted trouble. If he couldn’t find the Silver-Horned Flood Dragon by then, he’d change targets and go somewhere else.

After all, this Silver-Horned Flood Dragon wasn’t the only legend-quality exotic beast on Mercury whose parts could be used to craft a bow!

——

As it turned out, Zhang Che’s luck was pretty good. When they arrived in the area, before they even started a thorough search, they discovered a huge fight was going on in the waters ahead of them.

Wasn’t that flood dragon-like exotic beast with a shiny horn on its head, currently chasing an enormous whale, the Silver-Horned Flood Dragon he was looking for?

“Hah, I’m really a man loved by the heavens!” Zhang Che sighed contentedly. He ordered the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon to fly towards them.

In the waters about a thousand meters away was an enormous whale, that seemed to have undergone some sort of mutation, being around a hundred meters in length! However, under the pursuit of that Silver-Horned Flood Dragon, who was only thirty-some meters long, the whale was covered in wounds, its blood dying a spread of the sea red.

Zhang Che was stunned for a moment, before thinking, -Looks like that whale might not be a creature from Mercury, either. Maybe it’s also a water-type exotic beast from the seas of the beast world.

-Otherwise, how could a normal whale last so long against the attacks of a legend-quality exotic beast? It would have been torn to pieces long ago!-

The Silver-Horned Flood Dragon’s senses were very sharp. As the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon was flying toward it, it shot a glance in his direction warily. Afterwards, it actually gave up on the prey already within reach, and its body suddenly sank into the water, disappearing from Zhang Che’s sight.

“The heck? That thing is too cautious!” Zhang Che was depressed. He had originally thought the legend-quality Silver-Horned Flood Dragon would more or less have some ego as a high-quality exotic beast, and let the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon have a round with it first, even if it could not win.

Unexpectedly, it actually turned to run with its tail between its legs the moment it sensed the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s aura.

That was actually normal, however. After all, the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon was a real dragon, while that fellow was only a flood dragon. Naturally it would be very aware of the strength of a dragon. Not daring to engage with the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon in a fight was understandable.

“I don’t believe you can escape right under the nose of the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon!”

With a wave of his hand, Zhang Che summoned the Purple Jade Condor and jumped onto its back. Immediately, he ordered the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon to give chase.

The Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon let out a long cry. His huge body suddenly plunged into the vast sea, disappearing from Zhang Che’s sight as well.

The Purple Jade Condor circled a few hundred meters above the waters, while Zhang Che paid close attention to below. However, he wasn’t able to discern anything, and could only anticipate inside, -The Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon should be able to catch up to that Silver-Horned Flood Dragon, right? His level and quality are both higher than it, after all. He should be able to crush it easily…-

Although he didn’t know how fast the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon was in water, that fellow could easily reach Mach 2 in the air. His speed in the water definitely wouldn’t be slow, either. Surely he could catch up to that escaping Silver-Horned Flood Dragon…

——

Indeed, the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon wasn’t slow in the water.

After entering the water, a unique layer of light shone from the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s body, seemingly ignoring the water resistance. His body shifted and flashed across a hundred meters in the blink of an eye.

Although it wasn’t at the terrifying level of the speed of sound, the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon quickly slithered in the direction of the Silver-Horned Flood Dragon’s aural traces, chasing after it.

The Silver-Horned Flood Dragon was a legend-quality exotic beast, and although it wasn’t as strong as the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon, its speed underwater wasn’t low. With the ongoing chase, they quickly swam towards the deep, open sea.

Zhang Che was still circling around above the waters, unaware that the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon had already chased his target a hundred kilometers away, fighting an intense battle a thousand meters deep in the sea.

Remembering Zhang Che’s instructions, forbidding him from damaging the raw materials, the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon didn’t use his skills, and only relied on his body to tangle with the Silver-Horned Flood Dragon.

Even so, the Silver-Horned Flood Dragon didn’t have the slightest advantage. Although it quickly unleashed its attacking skills, it was unable to damage the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s crystallized body.

After less than a minute, the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon suddenly launched a fierce attack with his edge in speed, reaching out with his jaws and biting down on the Silver-Horned Flood Dragon’s neck. He bit down hard with his crystallized teeth, easily penetrating the Silver-Horned Flood Dragon’s scales with almost no resistance, nearly biting through its neck.

The Silver-Horned Flood Dragon struggled violently, stirring the waters, but it couldn’t break free from the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s bite.

All of a sudden, the nearby deep sea creatures quickly swam away, in case they were caught in the mess. The earth and water at the bottom of the sea were stirred into a cloudy mess, shrouding the surrounding thousand meters in darkness.

The deep sea creatures that couldn’t run away in time were immediately twisted into shreds!

——

Zhang Che waited more than half an hour above the waters, and started to knit his brows together.

“Impossible… Given the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s strength, he should be able to catch up to that Silver-Horned Flood Dragon very easily. Could it be that he wasn’t able to display all his strength because of my instructions, and the fight came to a standstill?” Just as Zhang Che was feeling suspicious about the situation, the water suddenly parted. A huge, deep blue dragon suddenly rose into the skies, flying straight towards where he was.

The Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon had a proud look on his face. His jaws were holding onto a dead snake-like creature, its savage-looking head bearing a dazzling silver horn. Wasn’t that the Silver-Horned Flood Dragon he managed to catch a glimpse of earlier?

“My boy, I knew you wouldn’t disappoint me!” Zhang Che was overjoyed inside.

With only a glance, he knew the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon had taken his instructions to heart and didn’t use his abyssal cold breath to attack the exotic beast. The Silver-Horned Flood Dragon was killed by the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon with only his bite.

With that, the flood dragon’s ribs were definitely preserved in a perfect state. Now, let alone crafting a superstrong bow, Zhang Che would have enough rib bones to craft ten, or even twenty bows with the number of the Silver-Horned Flood Dragon’s rib bones he had!

“Good boy, daddy didn’t appreciate you for naught! You’ve really achieved huge merits this time!” Zhang Che sighed with praise on seeing the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon looking like he was here to claim credit, and caressed the dragon’s head. Afterwards, he jumped over to the dragon’s back and recalled the Purple Jade Condor, flying back to the small island he had landed Dijiang-hao on.

Despite how smoothly this trip had gone, Zhang Che had no intention of staying behind to admire the sea. He wanted to return as soon as possible and dissect the materials, then go custom order a superstrong bow.

After all, even the best bow master craftsmen in Bei Du needed at least a few days to craft a superstrong bow of that level. Zhang Che also had to go to the beast worlds as soon as possible to hunt more exotic beasts, as well as scavenge spiritual herbs. He couldn’t afford to waste much time!

Of course, Zhang Che wasn’t willing to stow the Silver-Horned Flood Dragon inside Dijiang-hao, either. He quickly harvested the few best rib bones off of the corpse on the island and gave the rest of the corpse to the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon, who was already drooling at the sight of it.

Although the Silver-Horned Flood Dragon wasn’t an ice-attributed exotic beast, it was water-attributed, at the very least. There were some similarities. Moreover, it was a flood dragon, and was a great tonic for the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon.

Seeing his master rewarding him with the prey, the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon immediately opened his mouth wide excitedly and directly swallowed the thirty-some meters long Silver-Horned Flood Dragon down into his stomach.

Zhang Che had cold sweats watching that. The way the dragon ate his food was pretty horrifying.

When the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon was done eating the Silver-Horned Flood Dragon, Zhang Che recalled his pet back into his spiritual sea with a wave of his hand, then piloted Dijiang-hao to take off and rush back to Bei Du.

If he rushed back, he would still have time to send the materials to the bow crafting company and place his order for the new Falling Star Model X. Naturally Zhang Che wouldn’t delay if he could get the finished work a night earlier!
