Chapter 876

~6 min read 1,172 words

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 these, its bloodline ranking just below that of King-level ferocious beasts.

After Xu Jingming entered this region, he 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 much 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, fully seventy to eighty meters tall!

The canopy of this tree 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.

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 it 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—"

"Squeal—"

"......"

Around this colossal tree, numerous avian ferocious beasts circled.

These avian ferocious beasts each radiated powerful auras, the lowest of them at least 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 it."

Several kilometers away, hidden among the trees and thickets, Xu Jingming shook his head.

Even among beast 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 Jiyao Jiyao Lei Huan rotating behind his broad back.

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

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

Xu Jingming's mind stirred.

The chaotic divine thunder swirling around his body instantly turned violent, the Supreme Jiyao Jiyao Lei Huan behind him spinning wildly!

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

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

No, this could no longer be called lightning—it was a Lei Zhu!!

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

It looked like a Lei Zhu, crashing down from the heavens!

Heavenly Thunder Art!!

After being fully leveled, this S-rank combat technique reached instant-cast capability.

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

Hence such an astonishing effect!!

Boom—

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 was instantly charred black, countless branches obliterated by the thunder.

The splashing lightning also directly slaughtered 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 reaching one to two hundred meters, as if blotting out the sun and sky.

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

Whoosh—

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

The once-panicked avian ferocious beasts calmed slightly.

"Who dares invade my domain?"

His spiritual force spread like a gale, his crimson eyes brimming with endless killing intent, sweeping relentlessly around.

That killing intent-laden spiritual force.

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 that Storm Wrath Dragon wake up?"

In the jungle, Mo Nika, who had been rushing forward, suddenly changed expression and hurriedly pulled Catherine into a nearby thicket.

"Is that a ninth-tier Storm Rage Dragon?"

Catherine, folding her wings, watched the giant dragon in the sky with curiosity.

She carried a teleportation-type treasure her mother had given her, so even facing a Beast Emperor-level fierce beast would not put her life in danger.

But that did not stop her from sensing the terrifying power of this Storm Rage Dragon.

That horrifying roar, even from over ten kilometers away, still made her heart jolt, and she sensed an intense aura of danger.

"Just now, a bolt of Lei Ting must have struck the Storm Rage Dragon's nest.

It is currently in an enraged state, searching for its enemy.

Lady Goddess, let us first restrain our aura and hold off on any action."

Mo Nika instructed with a solemn expression.

"The Storm Rage Dragon's enemy?"

Catherine was briefly stunned, then immediately grew interested: "It couldn't be another Beast Emperor, could it?

I never expected that coming to the wilderness would let me witness a battle at this level."

Although the internet had videos of Beast Emperor-level fierce beasts fighting, a video was still just a video.

Even the most lifelike holographic projection could not simulate that aura exclusive to Beast Emperor-level fierce beasts.

She naturally would not miss this chance to witness it in person.

"With the Lei暴態 augmentation, my Perfect-tier Heavenly Lei Art casting range exceeds twenty kilometers.

As long as I wish it, this Storm Rage Dragon won't be able to detect me for a short time."

On the other side, Xu Jingming, who had also sensed this fluctuation of spiritual power, merely smiled faintly.

Although the Storm Rage Dragon was a ninth-tier Beast Emperor, its spiritual power was generally weaker than that of human ability users, and its perception was not particularly strong either.

But relying solely on the Heavenly Lei Art, there was naturally no way to slay this Storm Rage Dragon.

"Slay it early, then teleport away."

Having confirmed the Storm Rage Dragon's presence, Xu Jingming no longer hesitated and directly activated Lei Shen Jiang Shi!

Boom!!!

A colossal Lei Shen phantom coalesced in the sky, gazing down upon the entire forest like a deity.

Under that overwhelming pressure, the fierce beasts already prostrate on the ground fell utterly silent.

Meanwhile, Catherine, hidden in the thicket, saw that familiar Lei Shen phantom in the sky and was somewhat dumbfounded.

Isn't that the phantom that appears when Xu Jingming unleashes his battle technique? How could it appear here?
