Chapter 74

There is a saying: "Shoot the person first, shoot the horse first; capture the bandit first, capture the king first."

The dragon wing is the only large area on a giant dragon's body not covered by dragon scales, and it is also the area with the largest defensive surface but the weakest defensive capability on the whole body.

Although this spot is not at all fatal to a giant dragon!

However, the strategic significance of attacking this spot is enormous, equivalent to destroying half of the giant dragon's agility and also preventing it from using attack methods such as dragon wing slam, diving strike, and dragon wing sweep.

Moreover, the giant dragon also uses magic.

Imagine an indestructible mage freely displaying his firepower above the heavens; that would be a nightmare for many people.

A giant dragon that can fly and a giant dragon that can only crawl on the ground are two different creatures.

In the wandering bard's anecdote, the protagonist can foolishly attack the giant dragon's vital point, then after a back-and-forth struggle, suddenly seize the opportunity and slay the giant dragon that still has more than half its health with a single sword strike.

If you really play like that, you will definitely die miserably in the end!

Following La Ge Na, they arrived before a huge castle, with several huge ballistae placed on its walls.

Some half-dragons were stationed there, diligently performing their duties, and did not scatter like birds and beasts after the death of the half-dragon leader.

Mu Yi surveyed those large ballistae; for someone of his strength, the destructive power of large war machines was still quite considerable.

As he thought, Mu Yi's face suddenly fell.

He suddenly realized that this kind of large secret realm is not meant for solo clearance; if a team comes to clear the secret realm, a few people hold the front line while others bypass the half-dragon leader and take the castle ahead.

When the half-dragon undergoes its second transformation, these several ballistae will become the best weapons against the half-dragon leader.

"Boom!"

The half-dragons noticed Mu Yi and his group's arrival, but immediately a huge glacier shot up from the ground, smashing the half-dragons and the city wall together.

Watching silver-white ice crystals drift down from the sky, Mu Yi could no longer suppress his inner shock.

Although he had known from the start that La Ge Na would be strong—having suppressed levels for years and slain hundreds of giant dragons—it would be unreasonable if he were not strong.

However, when La Ge Na truly began to act, Mu Yi only then realized La Ge Na's terror.

If his guess is correct, La Ge Na's every attribute has probably been maxed out to the limit of an apprentice, and his proficiencies are so numerous as to be horrifying.

In the terms of cultivation novels, this is planning to create a Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment?

Mu Yi could hear a commotion coming from inside the fortress; evidently the half-dragons inside were continuously rushing toward this side.

However, La Ge Na merely raised his hand and waved; all the noise vanished instantly, and the entire castle fell into dead silence.

"Let's go, the dragon beast you mentioned should still be down below!" La Ge Na walked ahead on his own.

They passed straight through countless half-dragons turned into ice sculptures and reached the center of the castle.

The center is a huge circular platform, on which a huge magical imprint faintly appears.

After Mu Yi and the others stepped onto it.

"Shall we teleport to the dragon beast cave?"

"Yes!"

A flash of light flickered, and Mu Yi and the others were teleported to an environment like a volcano, where the terrifying heat seemed to distort the air itself.

Around the volcano-like peak, the surrounding cliffs are extremely smooth and steep, and the mountain does not look naturally formed.

Before them lay a huge cave, with smooth, steep cliffs above it.

"You go up first; I'll deal with that dragon beast and then come!" La Ge Na walked into the cave, gesturing for Mu Yi and Gui Naifen to go ahead.

The cliff was very steep, but for Mu Yi and Gui Naifen it was no big trouble; the two quickly reached an open platform on the cliff wall.

This is a very large platform.

Its diameter probably exceeds fifty meters; nature is unlikely to produce such a neat platform, and Mu Yi thought this should have been prepared by the giant dragon for itself.

Just as the two were sizing up the platform, Zongwang Prompt sent a message.

"La Ge Na slew the dragon beast leader, earning the leader kill reward: a sharp dragon fang."

"The dragon beast leader has been slain; the plane reward task: kill the dragon beast leader is completed."

"Calculating mission rewards…"

"You contributed 0% output to the dragon beast leader, so you cannot obtain extra rewards."

"You obtained a dragon beast chest (purple)."

"Zongwang Prompt: Latest news from the Giant Dragon Treasury: Stage One, the dragon-blooded kobold has been slain; Stage Two, the half-dragon Si A Ba La has been slain; Stage Three, the dragon beast leader has been slain! Extra stage activated!"

"Zongwang Prompt: The progress information of the Giant Dragon Treasury has been refreshed."

Plane Secret Realm: Giant Dragon Treasury

Stage Two: Dragon-Blooded Nest (cleared)

Stage Three: Dragon Beast Cave (cleared)

Extra Stage: Red Dragon Nest, activated.

Red Dragon Nest:

Leader: Red Dragon-Ma Ge Lie Lie

Almost at the instant the Zongwang Prompt message sounded, Mu Yi felt an overwhelming pressure bearing down on him.

That was a feeling hard to describe.

It was as if the whole person involuntarily had heavy breathing and a racing heart, as if frightened, with a patch of gooseflesh rising on the back, plus an inexplicable sense of weakness and lethargy; that feeling was like having a severe cold, the whole person seeming to have no strength at all.

This is dragon might!

Almost as this feeling appeared, a new message prompt simultaneously emerged:

"Affected by dragon might effect!"

It felt as if the whole body involuntarily had heavy breathing, a racing heart, as if frightened, with gooseflesh rising on the back, plus an inexplicable sense of weakness and exhaustion. The feeling was like having a severe cold, the whole person seeming to have no strength at all.

This is dragon's might!

Almost as this feeling appeared, a new message prompt also surfaced:

"Affected by the dragon's might effect!"

"Triggered compulsory will save!... Will save passed!... You successfully resisted the dragon's might's negative effect!... You successfully resisted the dragon's might's fear effect!..."

The feeling of powerlessness gradually faded, but Mu Yi still felt his heart pounding.

Even though he was immune to the effects of the dragon's might, he could still feel his own breathing becoming heavy.

The gap between life levels made the effect of the dragon's might astonishing.

The spear on his back emitted a faint light under the effect of the dragon's might, as if it were counteracting the dragon's might.

Beside her, Gui Naifen propped herself up with a spear so she wouldn't fall; although her body felt a little weak, she still tremblingly took out her camera and began taking a selfie.

Mu Yi was somewhat surprised; this couldn't be dismissed as mere boldness—this thing was already approaching a mental attack.

An ordinary person probably wouldn't even have the strength to stand.

Even through the thick mountain mass, Mu Yi could feel that a terrifying Dragon was awakening.

That was a far more terrifying beast than the unicorn and Flame Lion Demon seen earlier in the Myriad Beasts Amusement Park.

La Ge Na stepped on the silver-white frost and jumped up from below the cliff.

"Be careful, the guy inside is about to come out!"

Before his words faded, a surge of fire spewed from the cave, the terrifying temperature seeming to burn everything to ashes.
