Chapter 368: Dragon Clan Slayer
Mu Yi sat cross-legged on the ground, recovering his strength; he wasn't sure if there would still be battles outside that he needed to deal with.
So he absorbed the power contained in the Blood God Son, hoping to restore everything he could.
The energy in the Blood God Son is not infinite; after all this, Mu Yi could clearly feel that the Blood God Son had dimmed considerably.
In the earlier struggle, if it weren't for this hidden reserve power of the Blood God Son, Mu Yi might not have been able to overwhelm the Old Gold Dragon.
After the Old Gold Dragon disappeared, Mu Yi also used his Thousand-mile Eye to find the hidden spatial passage.
The treasure that vanished without a trace was probably taken from here.
What puzzled Mu Yi was how the other party managed to take these treasures from the clear-minded Old Gold Dragon—it was simply unimaginable.
"Thank you, human, for helping Old Gold gain liberation!"
As Mu Yi stepped into the spatial passage, he faintly heard a thank you from the unknown.
Mu Yi could not even tell whether that was his own illusion or the lingering obsession left by the Old Gold Dragon.
"It seems a bit off; will our activity this time fail?"
The Legend Dragon Slayer Warrior looked at the Dragon Slayer Mage beside him with a headache, confiding his worries.
Members of the Dragon Slayer Brotherhood had already begun to gather; the appearance of the dragon swarm forced them to concentrate their strength as much as possible.
Although they possessed the power to slay dragons individually, they now also had to consider the necessity of team combat.
"It's strange; the dragons' reaction completely surpassed any previous reaction of the Dragon Kingdom—either there's a secret hidden within the Dragon Kingdom, or someone has attracted the dragons!"
"What do you think it is?" the Dragon Slayer Priest pondered, opening his holy scripture and shedding the light of the Lord of Dawn upon the warrior ahead.
The Dragon Slayer Warrior, whose face had been burned beyond recognition by the dragon's breath, quickly recovered and launched another fearless charge at the dragon.
"I think both are true!"
The Dragon Slayer Mage said, projecting his gaze through the crystal ball onto La Ge Na.
At this point, La Ge Na had already broken through the limits of the mundane, growing at extreme speed; years of accumulation let him rapidly approach the Transcendent Peak in war, with only a step away from breaking into Legend.
The Dragon Slayer Priest curled the corner of his mouth in a smile and said to the Dragon Slayer Mage.
"Our new brother seems to harbor something far more complex than we imagined!"
"The more complex, the better, right?"
The Dragon Slayer Priest's smile widened; whatever the enemy wanted to destroy, they would surely strive to achieve.
The dragons placing such importance on La Ge Na is, for them, extremely good news.
They clearly know the habits of these greedy giant lizards; the more they value La Ge Na, the more it shows La Ge Na will pose a huge threat to the dragons.
Merely breaking the mundane has drawn so many dragons; they will absolutely protect La Ge Na at any cost, letting him grow.
"The next battle will be tough; get them ready—we can't afford to capsize here!"
"Roar!!!" came the dragon's roar from the sky, a overwhelming pressure pressing down toward the Dragon Slayer Mage.
A mouthful of scorching, destructive dragon breath fell, raising the surrounding temperature to a point where life could hardly survive.
A milky-white holy light barrier resisted the scorching dragon breath from outside.
"Our position has been exposed; those dragon mages and dragon sorcerers are really annoying!"
The Dragon Slayer Priest's good mood vanished; his face showed only dissatisfaction with the dragon partners—if not for those who had contracts with the dragons, this trip could have been at least half as easy.
"If someone takes the opposing side, then someone must inevitably take the cooperative side..." the Dragon Slayer Mage murmured, gazing at the dragon and person appearing in the sky.
"In fairy tales, the evil dragon as the villain is always slain by the brave warrior, but unfortunately..."
As he spoke, the Dragon Slayer Mage raised his staff.
"This time, we are the villains!"
"Boom—!"
At this moment, it seemed as if some terrifying explosion sounded in the air!
The Dragon Knight diving down from the sky vanished amidst the turbulent magical fluctuations, leaving not a trace.
"No matter how many times you look, you'll feel spatial magic is truly a terrifying ability!" the Dragon Slayer Priest clicked his tongue, extending a hand to cast a holy light that fell upon the Dragon Slayer Warrior who had beheaded a red dragon ahead.
"It merely banishes them temporarily; my magic is too ineffective against humans, and using it would be too disadvantageous for us."
The Dragon Slayer Mage muttered to himself, then suddenly turned his head to look toward the depths of the Dragon Kingdom.
The entire Dragon Kingdom began to tremble; the sky turned blood-red, and everyone could feel that sorrow.
"Oh? Looks like our friend has done something quite remarkable!"
"This... this is a godfall? Did a dragon deity die inside the Dragon Kingdom?" the Dragon Slayer Priest's scalp went numb; such a heavenly-earthly omen was simply chilling.
"Jiuzhou, indeed a terrifying place!"
The Dragon Slayer Mage murmured, gazing into the distance, as if he could see through the vast distance straight to Mu Yi.
"Oh, truly chilling; may the great Lord bless him!"
The Dragon Slayer Mage turned his head to look at the Dragon Slayer Priest's feigned prayer, finding it somewhat funny; this guy always manages to disrupt the atmosphere at serious moments.
Legendary characters are not as everyone imagines; they are not all solemn-faced like legendary martial monks or emitting some perverse aura.
Sometimes they also behave like ordinary beings.
After all, not every breakthrough in a legendary profession requires spiritual accomplishment.
Feeling chilled or such is pure nonsense.
No matter which plane, the Legend Priest is a sufficiently radiant existence.
They are alternative incarnations of the gods in the mortal world, carrying out the gods' will and path with mortal bodies.
Don't look at this guy constantly saying he's scared; when it's truly time to risk his life, he can directly wield divine authority in human form, becoming a terrifying existence as a mortal saint.
Even some weaker deities might not be his match.
"It's time to sound the horn of counterattack!" the Dragon Slayer Mage ignored the buffoonish Dragon Slayer Priest, muttering to himself.
"Whooo~" accompanied by the desolate and ancient horn sound.
"What are you doing?"
The Dragon Slayer mage glared fiercely at the Dragon Slayer priest.
"Didn't you say you were going to blow the horn of counterattack?" the Dragon Slayer priest said with an innocent face.
"You bastard!"
The Dragon Slayer mage almost vomited blood; he didn't know whether the counterattack horn had been blown, but their position was once again exposed to the Dragon's perception.
Several Dragons, carrying their companions, came charging toward them.
The Dragon side clearly understood that only these battle companions could maximally restrict the Dragon Slayers' performance.
Otherwise, even a demigod-level Dragon would find it hard to face this group, the natural nemesis that specializes in attacking Dragons.
"Ah, it looks like things are getting a bit bad."
"It's all your fault!"
The Dragon Slayer mage waved his staff, and as the Dragon's attack approached, he activated spatial transfer, sending all nearby members of the Dragon Slayer Brotherhood to another place.
Now is not the time for the final battle; they cannot let this annoying group of Dragon Riders hinder them.
On the other side, Mu Yi had just stepped out of the space of the old golden Dragon.
The spontaneously arising phenomenon of heaven and earth made Mu Yi raise his eyebrows; earlier, in that cross-Plane war, he had witnessed such a phenomenon.
But he never imagined that one day he himself could trigger such a phenomenon.
Just as Mu Yi was thinking that.
A huge boulder shot from afar, trailing sparks of fire, came screaming toward them!
"Boom—!!"
Behind Mu Yi rose a terrifying scarlet dharma image, wielding power that caused the surrounding space to fluctuate, which he slammed fiercely onto the incoming meteor!
Instantly, a violent explosion occurred!
The terrifying power instantly shattered the meteor's entire structure, and the flying shards, gradually taking on a reddish hue, shot outward!
And at that moment, a gleam of blade burst forth from the explosion's dust!
Mu Yi didn't have time to act, but a flash of cold light blocked the blade.
"Quite a lively fight!"
Mu Yi blinked, watching the two intertwining afterimages constantly forming in the void before him.
His attacker was a Dragon Rider, while his aider was a berserker exuding the aura of a Dragon Slayer.
From his unnaturally massive build, perhaps he had Titan blood.
Wielding a thunder hammer almost as large as a truck, he fiercely clashed against a Dragon and a person.
"Damn it, take that one out first!" the Dragon Rider thrust his spear, forcing the Dragon Slayer giant back, and fixed his gaze on Mu Yi.
Fighting this unkillable big guy is a lengthy affair; better to first slay the sudden outsider and then talk.
Saying that, he urged the Dragon carrying him to charge toward Mu Yi.
But what surprised him was that the Dragon companion, which had been baring its fangs and claws, now seemed somewhat fearful and unwilling to support his decision.
In the end, the Dragon still trusted its companion, after all these Dragon Slayers emitted an uncomfortable aura, though Mu Yi's was stronger, seemingly not much different.
Watching the Dragon Rider fling off the giant and swoop down toward him, Mu Yi shook his head.
"Heaven has a road you refuse to take; hell has no gate you insist on breaking through!"
One person and one Dragon are both Legends, but for Mu Yi, who suppressed the old golden Dragon, they still aren't enough to impress.
The Great Xia Dragon Sparrow Blade appeared in his hand, casually unfurling its wings as he went to meet the Dragon Rider.
The Dragon Rider raised his dragon spear and thrust it fiercely at Mu Yi.
Neither dodged; both unleashed their full strength.
However, the Dragon Rider inexplicably felt a sudden worry.
Nevertheless, in the midst of such fierce combat, he could not afford to be distracted; he could only pour more strength into it, hoping to crush Mu Yi in one blow.
"Clang!"
However, no miracle occurred; his attack was blocked!
The instant he felt the violent recoil from the spear, the Dragon Rider suddenly burst forth, leaving the Dragon's back.
And a blade of light slashed through empty space where no one stood.
Mu Yi was somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected the opponent to dodge that blade.
"Is your condition still not fully recovered?" Mu Yi imperceptibly furrowed his brows.
"No, it's because suppressing the old golden Dragon prevents my power from being fully exerted..."
Although he had suppressed the old golden Dragon's soul, before fully digesting it, this suppression was like bearing a tremendous weight, causing his movements to become somewhat distorted.
And in such a Legendary clash, any distortion would become a shadow of failure.
"Use the Dragon Transformation Secret Art!" the Dragon Rider mentally conveyed his will to his Dragon companion.
Just a brief clash, and the Dragon Rider realized Mu Yi was a tougher opponent than the Dragon Slayer giant.
The Dragon Slayer giants could fully spread their wings and fly to the heavens, abandoning combat outright, always retaining the initiative in battle.
But Mu Yi before them was different; his speed even surpassed that of the Dragons, forcing them to use all their trump cards.
"Dragon Transformation!"
The next instant, a gleam of light appeared in this void!
At that moment, the dim void was illuminated, and a huge dragon shadow appeared upon the firmament!
It was a strong black dragon, completely different from before; though no human shape could be seen, one could still sense a human style, its slit pupils filled with the color of destruction!
"Roar!!!"
Almost as soon as it appeared, a breath exuding annihilation dissipated!
The breath filled with destructive power left a trace of terror and calamity in the void!
All matter, beneath that violent breath, turned into twisted ash!
That was not a mere energy impact, but a powerful product born from the resonance of faith and bloodline!
A Dragon Knight is not an achievement, but a profession; transforming into a dragon is this profession's ultimate trump card.
By merging the dragon and its partner into one, they incarnate as a more powerful being.
Legendary-grade dragons and knights, after merging, even possess the power to challenge high-level Legends.
The terrifying breath submerged Mu Yi.
But when the breath dissipated, Mu Yi had already closed in before the Dragon Knight.
The shocking will fused into that breath had no effect on him.
The effect of 【Dragon Slayer Lv3】 was even better than Mu Yi imagined, directly exempting him from most of the dragon breath's power; the remaining force couldn't even break through his surface defense.
The dragon's claws swung down at Mu Yi.
But his claws swung at empty air!
A deadly threat surged forward!
A genuine, ever-intensifying aura of death nearly engulfed the Dragon Knight entirely...
It had no time to react, only to be swallowed by endless dark waters after a wave of intense pain.
"What a pity, you chose the wrong way to fight!"
Mu Yi calmly beheaded the Dragon Knight, casting the knight's and dragon's souls into the barrier.
This Dragon Knight is not weak.
If it were just his human form, unable to use the Uninterrupted state, he would indeed have to expend considerable effort to defeat this Dragon Knight.
But after the fusion, possessing the dragon's nature, it was completely restrained by Mu Yi's current Dragon Slayer trait, allowing Mu Yi to slay it in an overwhelming fashion.
At this speed, the underground Dragon Slayer Giant stared in disbelief; it never imagined that the Dragon Knight it had fought for half a day would fall so easily into Mu Yi's hands.
