Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 164

"Damn! This Dark Heaven Insect is too difficult to deal with!" The red-haired man had no clue that he had completely fallen for hook, line, and sinker into the trap Rocky had so masterfully set. He was now going to great lengths to kill the Dark Heaven Insect, to obtain the Dark Heaven Egg inside its body.

After spending quite a few laborious minutes in a desperate struggle with the Dark Heaven Insect, he had been panting and sweating. His spiritual power was growing weaker by the second. Worse still, his spirit-manipulated beast had been accidentally wounded by the Dark Heaven Insect before and had, therefore, lost its fighting power, leaving its master to fight against their prey alone.

But the beast was in no good shape either. Although it had armor as hard as iron, this spirit manipulator had adopted a relatively clever way to attack its weaker lower abdomen. Therefore, although its outer shell was intact, it also suffered a lot of internal injuries under the impact of the spiritual power at the Earthly Stage, which made it begin to seem rather powerless.

When the Dark Heaven Insect discovered that it was not in an ideal situation, it decided to escape under the ground as quickly as possible.

Utterly spent, the red-haired man could only watch helplessly as the Dark Heaven Insect tried to escape, but he had no intention or any remaining strength to stop it.

As the Dark Heaven Insect was about to run away, suddenly, a bone arrow covered with venom and mixed with the strong spiritual power of the Earthly Stage flew from one direction. With a loud, ear-splitting whistle, the bone arrow sank into one leg of the scurrying insect. Its injured leg suddenly went entirely limp, causing the insect to slow down considerably as it ran underground.

"Swish, swish..."

Three more arrows flashed overhead, hitting one more forelimb and two hind legs!

"Crash!" Accompanied by a loud din, a huge cloud of smoke and dust began to float into the air.

The Dark Heaven Insect finally collapsed on its four legs as if its internal organs had come to a halt, leaving its huge body with no strength to support itself anymore. Finally, with the last of its strength completely gone, it fell onto the ground.

Upon observing this scene, the red-haired man could not help but feel totally stupefied. 'What kind of arrow is so powerful that it can bring down the Dark Heaven Insect at once?' he thought to himself doubtfully.

Just then, one man and a beast emerged out of the dense thicket nearby.

"It's you!" The red-haired man looked surprised when he saw Rocky emerge unscathed from the bushes, with a cocky grin on his face.

"You've really made great efforts in helping me exhaust the strength of the Dark Heaven Insect so that I can defeat it in just one move!" The red-haired man's jaw dropped. He realized that this had all been part of this mysterious man's plan! He had concocted a perfect scheme from the very beginning. If he could successfully lure the Dark Heaven Insect out onto the ground, the red-haired man would probably be totally driven to obtain the Dark Heaven Egg. And to get the Dark Heaven Egg, he had to kill the Dark Heaven Insect first. Rocky's prediction was right! The red-haired man would most likely do his best to kill this target once and for all.

"You little bastard, how dare you plot against me?" The red-haired man looked aghast at Rocky's words. He had never expected to have the tables turn like this!

"You might have heard an old saying goes like this: he that does evil shall find evil. I'm just giving it back to you. Tell me, who exactly hired you to attack the frontline outpost of the Holy Dragon Empire?" Rocky asked the red-haired man coldly, and his eyes becoming as hard as steel.

"Ha-ha, what do you think you are? To deal with a man weak and useless like you, I can crush you with just one finger!" the red-haired man cried out with great arrogance. It was clear that he hadn't known about Rocky's hidden strength yet, and he sneered at this man whom he perceived to be quite weak.

Hearing this man's disdainful words, Rocky's face darkened. With his spiritual power soaring instantly, he made himself reach the second grade of the Earthly Stage. He then said with astonishing momentum, "Who is weak? You or me?"

Upon seeing Rocky's real power, the red-haired man began to feel panicked. His legs began to tremble and his knees eventually buckled underneath him.
