It was stunned.
Did it hear that right?
This person, barely the size of its fingernail, was actually coveting its heart?
Truly, it made the evil dragon laugh in anger.
[Human, do you know what you’re saying?!]
[In the past, those who desired my heart numbered not in tens of thousands but at least thousands, and they all died!]
[If you truly want it…fine, come in!]
The evil dragon began to employ a provocation tactic!
After all, the image left by the Giant Dragon to outsiders was one of inviolable majesty.
If it continued to show weakness, it might actually backfire.
This person didn’t look like a fool.
The evil dragon steeled itself for a drawn-out battle.
Ye Kui turned sideways and stepped through the gap in the bars that allowed one person to enter.
Evil Dragon: ???
The evil dragon’s eyes widened, its expression dazed.
It had misjudged; this guy really was a fool!
The evil dragon couldn’t help but grin viciously, greed in its eyes almost turning tangible as it dripped, and it opened its mouth wide, lunging at Ye Kui to devour him like a bottomless abyss!
[Human, become my blood…]
Ye Kui twisted his body, braced one hand on the ground, and kicked hard at its chin!
Scales flew, the massive jaws slammed shut, teeth shattered and scattered, blood spraying everywhere!
The terrifying force sent the evil dragon crashing to the side, pain flooding its jaw.
It was dumbfounded!
The evil dragon couldn’t comprehend how such a tiny human could possess such overwhelming strength!
[Human, you’re insolent!]
The evil dragon roared!
Heat gathered in its throat, red light flickered, Dragonfire brewing within!
It hadn’t unleashed it in ages and needed a moment to prepare.
[Human, the majesty of the Giant Dragon is not to be defied!]
[Next, you will pay a cruel price for your actions!]
Ye Kui leaped up, smashing his fist into the dragon’s throat, the Alchemical Mystery directly decomposing the organ that was condensing Dragonfire.
Evil Dragon: ?!!
The evil dragon could clearly sense it—
Its Dragonfire ability…was gone?!
The evil dragon stared at Ye Kui in horror!
[You…what kind of monster are you?!!]
Ye Kui: “What are you blabbering about?!”
“The dragon heart provides powerful vitality, so I’m taking it.”
The evil dragon howled!
[You…watch out for a sneak attack!]
The evil dragon opened its mouth again, baring its bloodstained fangs. Several were broken, but it didn’t affect its bite force at all!
It aimed to bite off Ye Kui’s head!
In this world, there were indeed creatures that could withstand the bite of a Giant Dragon.
But a human’s head clearly wasn’t among them!
Human, pay the price for underestimating me!!!
But suddenly, the evil dragon’s movements froze.
An indescribable pressure pinned it in place.
Its scarlet pupils slowly contracted!
Only then did it notice the little octopus on Ye Kui’s shoulder.
It was radiating a terrifying sense of existence!
The evil dragon’s vision wavered, as if it had entered a misty, unknown sea!
Within the churning fog, a colossal, mountain-like figure appeared, countless tentacles piercing both sky and sea!
With just a glance, the evil dragon’s mind was struck with terror!
The evil dragon screamed, black blood flowing from its mouth, nose, eyes, and ears, gradually turning to dust.
Boom!
Its mind collapsed!
Ye Kui: ???
Ye Kui stared blankly as the evil dragon shrieked and fainted.
Wait…it was just faking?
Was its courage really that lacking?
Ye Kui glanced at Zina beside him.
She was brimming with energy, her tentacles gently swaying.
Ye Kui shook his head.
A mighty Giant Dragon, and yet even weaker than his little octopus.
Still has room for growth.
Ye Kui didn’t dwell on it, leaped onto the dragon’s body, and pressed his right hand against its chest!
His eyes flashed, intricate alchemical runes appearing!
Heart Replacement!
At once, a crimson phantom heart materialized outside the body, gradually solidifying.
Ye Kui gripped it in his hand!
Each powerful beat felt like a hammer striking his palm.
Dragon heart, acquired!
Now, inside the evil dragon’s body, Ye Kui had replaced its heart with an ordinary one.
Since it couldn’t breathe Dragonfire anymore, a normal heart was enough to sustain its life—though it would be a bit weaker.
Ye Kui stored away the dragon heart.
He had come well prepared to thoroughly fleece the Genesis Organization!
So, Ye Kui looked toward the other Prison cells.
He certainly wouldn’t let these materials slip by!
All around, the Prison was silent, eyes filled with shock and terror!
None had expected the mighty evil dragon to be subdued and have its heart taken so easily by a human?!
What a disgrace!
After all, they were cellmates!
Just then, a massive black jellyfish floated in the air, baring its teeth at Ye Kui with a sinister smile.
The silence was broken.
Its tentacles, bristling with black spikes, scraped the cell walls, emitting piercing screeches and leaving deep gouges!
[Human boy, you’re interesting. Why not have a chat with me?]
Ye Kui looked at it, eyes lighting up.
He stepped out of his cell and walked toward it.
Nethersea Jellyfish, a rare and bizarre creature said to dwell on the borders of the Nethersea, offspring of the Nether God.
Ye Kui hadn’t expected the Genesis Organization to capture such a thing!
“Sure.”
Ye Kui smiled and entered the Nethersea Jellyfish’s cell.
The Nethersea Jellyfish emitted a sharp sonic wave, laughing wildly as its tentacles whipped out, trying to strangle Ye Kui!
[Kid, should I call you foolish, or arrogant?]
[Either way, die!!]
[I’ll drain every drop of blood from you!!!]
Yet, before the tentacles could even touch him, they wilted and slammed to the ground.
As if gaining consciousness, all the tentacles trembled, offering the deepest reverence to the noble overlord of the deep sea!
The Nethersea Jellyfish froze.
It saw a sea of mist and, within it, a horrifying presence.
Just one glance—and a wave of dreadful corruption engulfed it!
Boom—!!
The Nethersea Jellyfish exploded!
Ye Kui, who’d been preparing to counterattack: ???
He quickly dodged left and right, barely avoiding the splattering foul-smelling slime!
Ye Kui looked at the walls, floor, and ceiling—all covered in parts of the ‘Nethersea Jellyfish’—and was utterly confused.
What just happened?
Did it self-destruct to try to intimidate him?
Well, if so, it succeeded—he really was startled.
Ye Kui admitted, he wouldn’t dare try it.
He tiptoed to avoid the filthy jellyfish goo, bent down, and picked up the Core of the Nethersea Jellyfish.
This item was perfectly preserved.
That was strange—if it self-destructed, how could its core remain?
Ye Kui thought back.
The way the Nethersea Jellyfish had exploded felt like it’d been slapped to bits by some unknown entity.
But that was odd.
Ye Kui hadn’t sensed any terrifying creature nearby making a move.
Ye Kui couldn’t figure it out, so he could only conclude…the Nethersea Jellyfish had gone insane.
Driven mad by confinement.
It wanted to explode at him!
Yet due to improper execution, it failed to harm him at all.
Ye Kui looked at the core in his hand.
According to game data, these creatures could swim freely even in ten-thousand-meter-deep trenches.
With the Core of the Nethersea Jellyfish, land creatures could experience the thrill of exploring the deep sea.
Provided, of course, they could withstand the crushing pressure.
Ye Kui walked out, noticing the silence.
Not a sound could be heard.
He looked around.
In every pair of eyes, terror surged as if they were staring at a demon.
Ye Kui smiled slightly.
He wouldn’t let a single one escape.
The first thing an alchemist must learn is greed.
Besides, the belongings of others always seemed more appealing.
“Why has everyone gone silent?”
“I preferred your previous defiant looks.”
“Jiejiejiejie, don’t bother hiding. You can’t resist. I’m coming in~”
All Evolution Creatures: Don’t come any closer!!!
