Chapter 876: Is the Storm Wrath Dragon

Dragon-type ferocious beasts are the dominant clan among ferocious beasts, each at least a Lord-level existence.

The Storm Wrath Dragon is among the elite of this clan; in terms of bloodline, it ranks just below the King-level ferocious beasts.

After entering this region, Xu Jingming easily located the Storm Wrath Dragon's position.

There was no help for it—its nest was far too conspicuous.

The trees in the wilderness area were far taller than ordinary trees, each easily reaching twenty to thirty meters in height.

Yet in this region stood a colossal tree, towering into the clouds, reaching seventy to eighty meters tall!

Its canopy was extremely dense, spreading outward for five to six hundred meters!!

The trees and thickets below were all shrouded in its shadow.

The Storm Wrath Dragon's nest lay precisely among the canopy of this colossal tree.

Anyone entering this region would find it impossible to ignore this tree.

On the map, this tree was specifically labeled—Storm Roost Tree.

The Storm Roost Tree was classified as an A+ grade anomalous tree, its branches and trunk incredibly hard, ideal material for crafting wind-element weapons.

Rumors claimed this was because the Storm Wrath Dragon had dwelled upon it for a long time.

Occasionally, dragon blood or dragon saliva dripped onto it, causing the tree to mutate and evolve.

"Roar—"

"Screech—"

"......"

Around this colossal tree, numerous avian ferocious beasts circled.

Each of these avian ferocious beasts radiated formidable energy, with the lowest being sixth-rank!

Xu Jingming even spotted several eighth-rank ferocious beasts!!

Although he had not seen the Storm Wrath Dragon itself, he could faintly sense an extremely powerful aura emanating from the nest.

"Compared to the Fangtooth Tiger Emperor, this Storm Wrath Dragon is leagues above."

Hidden among the trees and thickets several kilometers away, Xu Jingming shook his head.

Even among ferocious emperors, there are differences—this Storm Wrath Dragon was undoubtedly one with superior bloodline.

"Its nest is surrounded by many avian ferocious beasts. Killing them all should grant me plenty of ability points."

Taking a light breath, thunder rumbled as Xu Jingming directly entered Thunderstorm State.

Hum—

His body swelled to over three meters tall, a pitch-black Supreme Thunder Ring rotating behind his broad back.

Cold, violent black lightning flickered and danced within the ring, radiating a dangerous, lethal aura.

"The Storm Wrath Dragon should be in its nest, but for safety, I'll confirm first."

Xu Jingming's mind stirred.

The chaotic divine thunder swirling around his body instantly turned violent; the Supreme Thunder Ring behind him spun wildly!

In an instant, a spell-based combat technique was fully constructed!

In the sky six kilometers away, dark clouds gathered as a black lightning bolt slammed down!

No, this could no longer be called lightning—it was a thunder pillar!!

Ordinary natural lightning was extremely thin, but this bolt had a terrifying diameter of three meters!!

It looked like a thunder pillar crashing from the heavens!

Heavenly Thunder Art!!

After being cultivated to perfection, this S-rank combat technique achieved instant casting.

Coupled with Xu Jingming's breakthrough to eighth rank, his spiritual force and ability power had surged beyond measure.

Hence such an astonishing effect!!

Boom—rumble~~~

Thunder roared as the pitch-black heavenly lightning struck straight down onto the seventy-to-eighty-meter-tall colossal tree!

Crackling—

The entire Storm Roost Tree turned instantly charred, countless branches obliterated by the lightning.

The splashing lightning also obliterated several avian ferocious beasts circling nearby.

"Roar—"

At that moment, a terrifying roar filled with fury rang out.

The massive shadow of the Storm Wrath Dragon burst forth from the dense canopy of the Storm Roost Tree!

Its body stretched over forty meters long; its wingspan reached one to two hundred meters, as if blotting out the sky.

Whirling gales surrounded its entire form, endless wind elements swirling around its body.

Whoosh—

With a beat of its wings, violent elemental gales erupted, scattering the remaining lightning.

The once-panicked avian ferocious beasts calmed slightly.

"Who dares invade my domain?"

A spiritual force surged like a hurricane, its crimson eyes brimming with endless killing intent as it scanned the surroundings.

That killing intent-laden spiritual wave.

Caused every ferocious beast within a fifty-to-sixty-kilometer radius to shudder violently, all instantly prostrating themselves on the ground, not daring to make a single sound.

For they knew—their king was enraged!

"Damn it, how did the Storm Wrath Dragon wake up?"

In the forest, Monica's face turned pale as she yanked Katherine into the nearby bushes, halting her rapid advance.

"Is that the ninth-rank Storm Wrath Dragon?"

Katherine, wings retracted, gazed curiously at the colossal dragon in the sky.

She carried a teleportation artifact given by her mother—she faced no mortal danger even against a ferocious emperor.

Yet that didn't stop her from sensing the Storm Wrath Dragon's overwhelming power.

Even from over ten kilometers away, that terrifying roar made her heart jolt, filling her with intense danger.

"Just now, a bolt of lightning struck the Storm Wrath Dragon's nest.

It's now in a furious state, searching for its attacker.

Young Lady, we must suppress our energy and remain still for now."

Monica warned with grave expression.

"The Storm Wrath Dragon's opponent?"

Katherine blinked, suddenly intrigued: "Could it be another ferocious emperor?

I never expected a trip to the wilderness would let me witness a battle of this caliber."

Although online videos showed ferocious emperor battles, videos were still just videos.

Even the most realistic holographic projections couldn't replicate the unique aura of a ferocious emperor.

She wouldn't miss this chance to witness it firsthand.

"With Thunderstorm State active, my perfected Heavenly Thunder Art can cast beyond twenty kilometers.

As long as I wish, this Storm Wrath Dragon won't detect me for a long time."

On the other side, Xu Jingming, who also sensed this spiritual wave, smiled faintly.

Though the Storm Wrath Dragon was a ninth-rank ferocious emperor, its spiritual force was generally weaker than human ability users, and its perception was not strong.

Yet Heavenly Thunder Art alone couldn't kill this Storm Wrath Dragon.

"Better to slay it quickly and teleport away."

Having confirmed the Storm Wrath Dragon's presence, Xu Jingming no longer hesitated—he activated Thunder God Descends!

Boom!!!

A colossal phantom of the Thunder God coalesced in the sky, gazing down upon the forest like a deity.

Under its overwhelming pressure, the ferocious beasts already prostrate on the ground fell utterly silent.

Meanwhile, hidden in the bushes, Katherine stared, stunned, at the familiar Thunder God phantom in the sky.

Wasn't that the phantom Xu Jingming summoned when using his combat technique? How could it appear here?
