All Heavens: Start with Monster Hunter

Chapter 136 Flame Dragon

"Hasak!"

The axe fell heavily to the ground, and then Li Qing swung it hard towards the lava dragon.

A gust of wind rose from the ground out of nowhere, and in just one or two seconds it quickly expanded into a tornado, sweeping towards the lava dragon.

This lava dragon actually saw a human being for the first time. It was originally curious about what Li Qing smelled like and which one tasted better compared to those armored dragons. However, it didn't expect that as soon as it showed its head, it was hit by a huge tornado by the other side.

Its huge body was large enough that the temporary tornado was not enough to knock it away.

However, Li Qing’s original goal was not to knock the opponent away.

Because compared to the Flame Dragon, this lava dragon is also a creature that cannot withstand low temperatures.

And it’s even more excessive!
The Flame Dragon simply cannot withstand low temperatures and will lose its ability to move in low temperatures, but the low temperature must be at least below zero to deplete the heat in the Flame Dragon's body and cause it to lose all its strength.

However, as long as the temperature drops below fifty degrees, the lava dragon will be unable to move, and may even die from hypothermia.

Note that this fifty degrees is above zero, not fifty degrees below zero.

In other words, the temperature is enough to kill a human being, but it is too low for this giant monster to bear.

Li Qing's research on monster information can be considered professional. I can't say anything else, but Li Qing can remember all the information on these common monsters.

The effect caused by this tornado is also very obvious.

The lava dragon was enveloped in a whirlwind. Li Qing controlled the strong wind and the moisture in the air to quickly draw away the lava dragon's body temperature. After only ten seconds, the magma on its body quickly cooled down and turned black.

The huge body seemed to weaken all of a sudden, and it even felt trembling as it squatted on the spot.

But I'm still trying my best to get back into the magma.

No matter how stupid it was, it could see that the little guy in front of it was not someone it could afford to offend.

Li Qing did not kill it all. He watched it slowly move back into the magma. He turned his eyes to the other side, ready to look for another exit to see how far it was from the Fire Country.

Li Qing put the axe back into the ring, controlled the gale to surround himself and speed up, and then began to run along the wall of the lava cave.

But sometimes nature is so amazing. After running at this speed for more than ten minutes, Li Qing felt more and more frightened.

Because after running until now, not only did I not find the exit, but I found that the space of this lava cave was getting bigger and bigger.

Or rather, this can no longer be called a cave, it should be said to be an underground world!
Although there is no sun, the hot magma provides temperature and light, and even a large amount of nutrients, providing space for some special plants to grow.

These plants are also very delicious food for many herbivorous plants, so there are also many herbivores that can tolerate high temperatures here.

This also led to another situation, that is, the monsters also became more numerous because of the abundance of food.

Along the way, Li Qing has seen two Lava Dragons again, as well as a Flame Dragon and a Hammer Dragon.

You have to know that these large monsters generally have a chassis, and he didn't actually walk too far, at least it doesn't match the chassis that a monster should have.

But these monsters can actually live quite well in this relatively cramped environment.

This fully demonstrates the richness of resources in this underground space, which is enough to support these large monsters.

'boom----!!'

Suddenly, a loud noise came from a distant space, causing Li Qing, who was running in one direction, to stop.

He turned his head in surprise.

Before I had time to think about anything, the loud noise was followed by a violent vibration.

Whether it was the soles of the feet or the top of the head, or even the stone wall that was tightly attached to him that was who knows how thick, everything was shaking violently, and this continued for two or three minutes.

As if the anger had been vented, the shaking slowly disappeared.

Li Qing raised his head and looked upwards, listening to the sound coming from above his head, and a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes.

Turning to look at the source of the loud noise:

“Is there a crater here too?”

"Should there be an exit here?"

While thinking in his mind, Li Qing acted quickly.

He stopped walking along the stone wall and changed direction to head towards the source of the sound.

This time the distance was not far, so Li Qing quickly arrived at the source of the sound.

And the situation was exactly as expected. There was also a crater here, and it was a crater that had just erupted.

There is a road connected to the outside that looks quite spacious, and you can even faintly see the light coming from outside.

However, Li Qing did not rush out of the exit. Instead, he stopped and looked at the space next to the exit with interest.

He walked in, his eyes fixed on the center.

A monster cub, less than half a meter in size, with a red body and wings, was lying in the middle of the nest, dozing off with its two little paws on its chin.

Its eyes were blurry and it was unclear what it was thinking. Even Li Qing, who was walking towards it openly, didn't notice it.

Li Qing looked at the little guy in surprise.

Although it is still young and probably was born not long ago, it has tender horns on its head, wings that already have some shape behind it, and a face like that of a lion.

All of this clearly indicates the identity of this cub.

"The cub of the Flame Dragon? There are actually ancient dragons here?" Li Qing was a little surprised. He had never heard of any information about ancient dragons in the volcano.

But Li Qing reacted quickly.

Considering the habits of the Flame Dragon, the rich resources and environment of this volcano are really a good location for their nest.

"But why is this little guy the only one here? I remember that when the Flame Dragon was young, there should have been a Flame Princess who always stayed by his side, right?"

Li Qing was thinking, but the little guy in front of him suddenly moved his nose, as if he smelled something. He raised his head and looked at Li Qing, who appeared in front of him at some point, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Then it suddenly climbed up from the nest, spread its little wings, bared its teeth at Li Qing, and let out a childish roar:

"Ouch~~~~"

A wisp of flame floated around it, but it looked powerless.

Li Qing smiled, stretched out a hand and patted its big head, so fast that the Flame Dragon cub didn't have time to react.

“Roar~Ah~~~”

But after being slapped twice by Li Qing, the little guy was obviously a little angry. The flaming dragon's bad temper was already evident when he was young.

It didn't care whether there was a gap between it and Li Qing, and it charged towards Li Qing with a small leap.

But after all, this little guy is estimated to be only a dozen days old, or even a few days old. Not to mention fighting, he is not even that agile in walking.

Before he could rush to Li Qing, he tripped over his left leg and rolled in front of Li Qing.

"Hahaha!"

This silly look made Li Qing laugh.

I squatted down, held down the little guy, and stroked his body for a while.

The warm body temperature and soft hair feel really good to touch, just like petting a cat.

The only pity is that the little guy was not very cooperative and kept struggling to dodge.

However, Li Qing did not think of trafficking the kitten. He just stroked it twice and then stopped, put it back and prepared to leave.

After all, after a brief observation, there were signs of monsters living in this cave.

I just don't know if it's just Princess Yan or if both Prince Long and Princess Yan are there.

Although Li Qing also wanted to fight with this ancient dragon, he was now attacking the other party's baby while the other party was not at home. It would be too embarrassing to tell others about it, so he decided to leave first.

After stroking the Fire Dragon cub twice, Li Qing rolled it back into the nest.

He stood up and prepared to leave.

But what Li Qing didn't expect was that just after he turned around and took a few steps, he heard a howling sound coming from behind, and a small figure rushed towards him again.

But perhaps due to lack of experience, he did not control the strength of this charge well, and not only did he fail to hurt Li Qing, but he fell into Li Qing's arms all of a sudden.

"Hiss~~~ I haven't decided to raise a pet yet. Although you do look like a kitten, your parents probably won't agree."

Li Qing held down the little guy's teeth helplessly, feeling speechless. He didn't expect that he was so persistent and would not let him go.

"Roar------!!!!"

Another angry roar sounded, making Li Qing, who was petting the cat, look even more helpless.

This sound was not the cry of the little guy in his arms. This loud voice was obviously the other parent's return.

Putting the little guy on the ground and kicking him away, Li Qing slowly turned around, looked forward, and couldn't help but sigh.

"I want to say that it was your child who was holding me back and wouldn't let me leave. Do you believe me?"

In front, there was a huge monster covered in angry flames and with ferocious horns, which looked like a monster from hell. It was staring at Li Qing.

The fangs flashed with a faint cold light, and the fur like a lion danced with the flames.

He looked heroic, but the angry look in his eyes made Li Qing feel a chill on his back.

"It's my bad luck. It seems I can't avoid this one!"

It did seem a bit immoral to play with someone else's baby while they were not around, so Li Qing didn't think about running away.

Each ancient dragon is able to have a huge impact on the natural environment.

As a classic ancient dragon, the Flame King Dragon naturally also has similar characteristics.

Although it does not have the terrifying power of Lanlong to directly control natural disasters, it can also accelerate the flow of earth veins and speed up volcanic eruptions, thereby causing harm to nature.

But generally speaking, the Hunter Guild would not care about the existence of the Flame King Dragon if there were no human gathering places nearby.

After all, volcanic eruptions actually have both advantages and disadvantages.

Although it will cause harm to nature, the things ejected from volcanic eruptions that fall to the ground will also provide sufficient nutrition to plants and the like.

Therefore, it is sometimes difficult to determine whether these ancient dragons only cause disasters to nature.

But there is no doubt that no matter which type of ancient dragon it is, they all have extremely powerful combat capabilities, and each one is an existence that the Hunter Guild must be extremely vigilant about.

Just like the Flame King Dragon in front of Li Qing at this moment.

The hair on its body is shiny, the horns on its head are exceptionally developed and huge, and its sharp claws all indicate that this Flame Dragon is in its prime and its strength is probably at its peak.

As for Li Qing, he had never fought against any other ancient dragon-level monsters except the Storm Dragon.

But dealing with Lanlong actually involves a lot of luck. If you don't have equipment and props specifically designed to restrain Lanlong, you will probably be killed before you even touch the opponent.

Therefore, facing this ancient dragon who was actually fighting him head-on for the first time, Li Qing would definitely give it his all and take it seriously.

He held two axes in his hands, with blue arcs of electricity flaring.

Compared to using only the Lanlong Armor, in close combat, the combination of the Golden Thunder God Armor and the Lanlong Soul Armor is stronger.

The jumping lightning and the sharp blades transformed from the strong wind instantly shot towards the Fire Dragon and arrived in front of the monster in the blink of an eye.

This Fire Dragon was also in a state of extreme anger. Facing Li Qing's tentative attack, it didn't even have the intention of dodging.

His body was wrapped in flames, but he actually rushed towards Li Qing despite the two attacks.

“It’s pretty hard!”

Li Qing was not surprised at all. He looked at the big guy rushing towards him calmly. He held the axe tightly in both hands and rushed towards him without hesitation.

A pair of large axes smashed heavily on the Flame Dragon's claws.

“Boom boom boom————!!”

A violent explosion instantly occurred at the point of contact.

Li Qing was caught off guard and was blown away. He could only rely on the air flow to stabilize his body in mid-air.

But this explosion had no effect on the Flame Dragon. It rushed forward almost the moment Li Qing was blown away.

The mouth that was already emitting flames raised up and rushed towards Li Qing and bit him.

Li Qing was not surprised but happy. With a wanton smile on his face, he swung his two axes left and right in the air and smashed them hard at the big head of the Flame King Dragon that was rushing towards him!
Only a muffled "bang" sound was heard.

The head of the Flame King Dragon collided heavily with Li Qing's two axes!
Powerful forces wrestled with each other in an instant, and the outcome was decided in an instant.

Compared to Li Qing's seemingly tiny body, the one that flew out in this brief duel was actually a huge Flame Dragon that weighed an unknown number of tons!
