Potion Maker Chapter 39: Fighting the flood dragon

With her hair fluttering in mana currents, Cecily looked at the sluggish flood dragon as it slowly flew above a patch of trees.

"A good thing about this is that flood dragon meat is very beneficial for cultivators, and can bring in at least a hundred mana stones"

Looking at Will who is building up power, Cecily smiled "I will attack first, the fireballs will explode at once disorienting it as my blades hack at it, while it's distracted you need to hit it with your strongest attack. Although a flood dragon is a lesser dragon, it is still a snake at the same time, it has the same weakness"

"Wait"

After saying this, Cecily raised her hand as her eyes focused intently on the flood dragon; her robes fluttering with her hair as she sent the fireballs charging towards the flood dragon, followed by the blades.

(AN: This is her mage cultivation)

The sound of the air splitting open at high speeds could be heard as a sharp whistle sounded out, causing the flood dragon to be drawn to their direction.

"Hey..."

Will was a little annoyed that Cecily attacked so suddenly, not only did he want to know more about the mana stones, he also wanted to know how flood dragons were still a snake..

Bang!

A series of explosions rang out as fireballs smashed into the flood dragon's body, causing some of its scales to fall off.

The explosion caused a shock wave to blast through the surroundings as the flood dragon reeled back sending it's eyes spinning. (not literally..)

The flood dragon thrashed around causing trees to splinter and pits to form in the ground.

Feeling like he was running out of time, Will blasted forward like a streak of lightning as ripples appeared in front of him, and gradually split.

A rumbling sound echoed through the air as Will kept his speed at the level it was at so he could prevent doing more damage necessary to himself, even if it could give him more power.

The moment he appeared in front of the flood dragon, Will's nostrils were assaulted with a strong smell, and he felt a very oppressive aura pressing down on him.

Watching him arrive, Cecily prepared to join in if his timing happened to be off as she looked worriedly at him.

Fortunately, when Will arrived, only a second passed, the flood dragon was still slamming it's tail into everything, and it just started to open it's mouth.

Panic flashed across Will's eyes as he dashed around the flood dragon, sending his charged fist directly into it's weak point, causing the flood dragon's roar to get caught off right as it started.

The body of the flood dragon froze as it's muscles could be seen convulsing under it's scales as blood dripped from it's mouth.

"Kill it!"

Seeing Will manage to hit with great timing, Cecily yelled at him to finish the flood dragon before it got away.

Snakes, flood dragons and dragons have monstrous vitality, if he didn't hurry it would recover soon.

Walking through the splinters from shattered trees and pits in the ground from the flood dragon's tail, Cecily's face paled as she noticed something.

"WILL! Watch out!"

Screaming at the top of her lungs, Cecily yelled at Will as loud as she could as she noticed the mouth of the flood dragon open as it turned it's head in Will's direction slowly.

Dark clouds that lingered in the sky condensed as a flash of lightning streaked through the sky, followed by an earthshaking clap of thunder.

Pat pat pat!

The sound of rain falling could be heard as streaks of rain formed a curtain falling from the heavens, the sound of thunder snapped Will out of the feeling of his successful hit as he finally registered Cecily's yell.

Turning around, Will's body shuddered as all of his muscles started to reach the verge of snapping, his eyes widened as he looked directly into the bloody mouth of the flood dragon as he reflexively threw his fists into the flood dragon's forehead.

"WILL!"

A crack could be heard as Will's fist connected with it's forehead, followed by him vanishing into the flood dragon's closed mouth.

Laying in the rain as dark clouds blanketed the earth with a curtain of rain, lightning flashed, outlining the figure of the flood dragon as its dark silhouette looked in Cecily's direction with its eyes tinted red in rage.

A rumbling sound could be heard from the flood dragon's throat as it growled in Cecily's direction, causing her to freeze.

Her eyes glowed red as her they watered up, her face turning extremely pale right after as threads of blood started to seep out of the skin on her hands and arms as her expression started to look like someone who is going to go into a berserker rage.

With a rumbling sound, pits appeared as a line was carved into the ground while the flood dragon charged at Cecily, its eyes glowing a bright red as light trails dragged from its eyes in the darkness of the storm.

Bang!

As Cecily's mind went deeper and deeper into a state of rage, she was shocked out of her mental state as an explosion similar to thunder was heard.

The threads of blood coming out of her arms and hands went back into her body as she looked at the flood dragon, a look of excitement could be seen in her eyes as her face regained color.

The flood dragon halted it's movements as it started to fling it's body back and forth, as if trying to fling an attacker from it's back.

Bang!

Another thunder like bang rang rang out from the flood dragon's body as it attempted to roar, only to vomit blood.

Another thunderous bang could be heard as Will slid out with the blood it vomited.

Hissing sounds could be heard from the blood as steam came off of his body like small clouds, in his hands an object with the shape of a baby's head was beating.

It was the flood dragons heart!

Cecily's eyes that were filled with relief, also widened in extreme shock.

'Impossible! No to only did he survive, he also managed to rip out it's heart from within!?'

As the flood dragon thrashed around unable to let out the smallest squeak, it slowly collapsed onto the ground as the heart in Will's hands stopped beating.

With a sigh, Will's body let out numerous cracking sounds as he collapsed onto the ground.

A glow gathered in his pocket as he collapsed, he managed to turn the flood dragon's blood from it's heart into a potion, making the heart useless now.

Plus, nearly all of his bones were broken in the process of him being swallowed, allowing him to gain a large increase in power.

The only reason he was able to survive the crushing pressure and the stomach of the flood dragon was because of his enhanced defense, and his ability kept making him stronger as he was injured so he was unable to lose consciousness.

The pouring rain washed the blood on the ground away as Will fell into a deep sleep.

Lightning flashed in the sky as a wind started to pick up, blowing the smell of blood away from the flood dragons.

Cecily ran over as her face carried a panicked expression, she checked his breathing while letting out a relieved sigh.

"Don't scare me like that again.."

Rolling him over she shoved a couple of pills down his throat as the sounds of bones reconnecting could be heard echoing in the surroundings.

They have gained an opening.
