Dragon Tamer

Chapter 274: Chapter 275: Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons

Translator: 549690339

On the sheer cliff rock, Zhu Minglang was surrounded by the pure white Storm Phantom Feathers with the breath of Ice Withering. His clothes also took on the aspect of a ghostly Charming Shadow.

The cliff was long, and other people were at the bottom, fleeing along the sloping path away from the rocky stronghold, while Zhu Minglang couldn’t let the Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons in midair swoop down…

By his side was only the Sword Spirit Dragon, and there were a great many Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons!

The cultivation base of these Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons wasn’t high, only around that of a Dragon General, but they were quite cunning, and by relying on teamwork, they could actually dodge the attacks of the Sword Spirit Dragon.

The Sword Spirit Dragon had a Monarch Level cultivation base. With one chop of its sword, regardless of speed or strength, it could easily kill hundreds of Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons, yet these dragons were like shadows. Whenever the Sword Spirit Dragon struck with its sword, they would very aptly scatter, leaving a space precisely where the Sword Qi passed through, despite flying densely together!

This bizarre phenomenon reminded Zhu Minglang of the time at Dragon Taming Academy’s lake when he was catching Blue-spotted Fish Fiends.

The whiskers that Blue-spotted Fish Fiends possessed could transmit danger signals to their companions, allowing the other fish to dodge lethal attacks, dispersing like ripples.

But these Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons, apparently, were not communicating crisis through any long whiskers by their mouths. Zhu Minglang had also tried to scatter some of the Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons hovering in the air, but even the individual dragons could dodge the Sword Spirit Dragon’s onslaught!

Could creatures of a lower rank move effortlessly under the pressure of a Monarch Level Sword Spirit??

Although in nature, rank and cultivation base don’t strictly follow a step-by-step hierarchy, there is still a huge difference in strength between Monarch Level and Dragon General Level. In usual circumstances, the Sword Spirit Dragon could even kill Semi-Monarch Level creatures with one sword strike.

There had to be something strange.

These Mourning Dragons were definitely not as straightforward as they seemed.

Zhu Minglang calmed himself down. He knew the more anxious he became, the harder it would be to deal with these sinister killing creatures.

He used his Spiritual Sense to closely observe these dizzying Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons. Faced with the threat of the Sword Spirit Dragon, these dragons didn’t dare to fly too low. They were just like a swarm of flies that could never be chased away, lingering in the sky above.

“Is it their dodging ability that is extraordinary, or is it foresight, or do they possess some kind of collective air current?” Zhu Minglang kept his cool as he pondered.

Not even one Bat Wing Sorcery Dragon could be killed.

Faced with a large group of Dragon General Level Mourning Dragons, Zhu Minglang found himself helpless.

If he couldn’t uncover the secret of these Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons quickly, he feared he would not be able to leave this place!

Zhu Minglang attempted to strike with his sword again, from the Firefly Sword Technique to the Sword Spirit Dragon releasing sword shadows to attack. In the night sky, one could see the figure of the Sword Spirit Dragon change from slender to huge, then transforming into countless sweeping Sword Lights…

The blade was sharp, Jian Hong was overbearing, Sword Qi rampaging.

In the end, not even a single scale of the Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons was harmed. The flapping of their wings created an immensely irritating noise, and their claws, rubbing against each other during flight, sounded like humans sharpening knives and forks at the dining table.

Zhu Minglang felt a touch of irritation in his heart, but he still tried his best to stay calm. Leveraging the power generated by the Sword Spirit Dragon’s recent strikes, he calmly watched the flight trajectories of this group of Mourning Dragons.

When geese migrate, they move in flocks because as they flap their wings, they create a warm, upward air current that ensures each goose can ride this migratory stream, conserving a great deal of energy while maintaining the correct direction. Any geese that fall out of formation are unlikely to reach their destination.

Zhu Minglang noticed that around these Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons, there was also a current similar to the migratory stream circling.

This circulating current was maintaining its position in the air and hadn’t descended to the cliff area. This could explain why they didn’t dare to fly low and why they didn’t dare to recklessly attack the other people on the ground.

The Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons flew at speeds that far exceeded their level, likely due to the swirling air currents.

However, there was still one thing that left Zhu Minglang quite confused.

The swirling currents indeed made the movements of these Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons uniform, like a group of vultures in the desert maintaining their keen sense of death, but how did they avoid his Flying Sword?

Logically speaking, the speed at which the Sword Spirit Dragon was unsheathed should have been faster than these Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons riding the swirling currents.

“Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak!!!!!”

The Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons began to swoop downward, forming a dense, spinning black cloud that spread the swirling currents toward the ground, indicating that the territory of the Sorcery Dragons would soon broaden.

They were planning to attack the others on the ground, and Zhu Minglang, standing on the cliff, was directly overlooked by them.

Those strange calls seemed to contain a hint of mockery towards Zhu Minglang, a Monarch Level Dragon Shepherd. It seemed to know that he was a strong human and that even all the power of the Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons combined might not be enough to kill him.

But they could simply bypass this strong man and attack the weaker targets.

“Zhu Minglang!” Nan Yuso, who was leading the way, called out.

Once the Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons flew down, they couldn’t advance, and everyone else would be injured. The Divine Green Holy Dragon, the Giant Elephant Dragon, and the Black Ocean Violent Dragon probably couldn’t withstand an attack by so many Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons.

“Just give me a little more time,” Zhu Minglang replied.

The Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons had already covered the top of the cliff. Their sharp fangs and poisonous claws seemed to already be scratching at people’s necks. Song Luo, Fang Niannian, Li Xinghua, the fortress girls, and Hu Bailing all showed signs of panic, as the Sorcery Dragons were so hideously ferocious.

Zhu Minglang breathed deeply, recalling how the old predecessors had always told him that in the face of any creature in this world, even the most insignificant mosquito in the swamp, one must not be careless, for their poison could leave even those with a high cultivation base in a state of high fever and weakness…

Zhu Minglang was well aware that these Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons weren’t strong in their cultivation base or power. As long as he found their secret, a single sword could annihilate hundreds of them, and it wouldn’t take much time to eradicate the entire swarm of Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons.

There had to be something beyond the swirling currents.

Zhu Minglang’s black eyes fixed on the ugly group of Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons. The more urgent the situation, the more one needed to remain calm and composed!

“Group flight, current flow…”

“Their flight is uniform.”

“It seems too uniform.”

“No, not uniform it’s identical!”

The movements were completely consistent, especially during the times when Zhu Minglang unsheathed his sword.

With this realization, Zhu Minglang immediately commanded the Sword Spirit Dragon to strike at the Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons again and arrived at a more accurate answer.

In the vast swarm of Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons, every single one of them dodged the Sword Spirit Dragon’s attack with the exact same movements and posture!

This meant that, no matter how many there were, there was a leader within the group of Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons!

All the other Bat Wing Sorcery Dragons were being led by this leader!!!
